RESOLUTION NO. PZO1-16
AN RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDING
TO THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, THAT THE DEFINITION OF
HOTEL BE AMENDED AND TO ADD DEFINITIONS FOR "LODGE" AND "GUIDE
SERVICE" IN THE KENAI ZONING CODE (14.20.320).
WHEREAS, the current definition of "hotel" in 14.20.320 does not distinguish between
large and small hotel-type uses;
WHEREAS, adding a definition of "lodge" to describe a small (five or fewer rooms}
hotel-type use, while redefining "hotel" to encompass more than five rooms, would
clarify the Kenai zoning code;
WHEREAS, the definition of "guide service" should be added to the Kenai zoning code
due to the increased number of guide services in the city;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RECOMMENDED TO THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
KENAI, Alaska, that KMC 14.20.320 be amended by changing the definition of "hotel"
and adding the definitions of "guide service" and "lodge" as follows:
"Guide Service" means any activity on any premises used for collecting or
returning persons from recreational trips when remuneration is provided
for the service.
"Hotel" means a building or group of buildings containing more than five
guest rooms used for the purpose of offering public lodging on a day-ta-
day basis with or without meals.
"Lodge" means a building or group of buildings containing five or fewer
guest rooms used far the purpose of offering public lodging on a day-to-
day basis with or without meals.
PASSED BY THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF KENAI,
