The original subdivision would have resulted in 5 lots served by a community water system. The proposal included dedication of a right -of -way which required an installation agreement. After further consideration, the owners have reconfigured the subdivision. The new plat reconfigures the existing Tract A, which is 4.12 acres, into three smaller lots. The properties are zoned Rural Residential. All three lots meet the minimum lot size requirement for the zone of 20,000 square feet and the minimum requirement for ADEC for onsite utilities. The minimum lot width for the Rural Residential zone is 90 feet. Lot A2 will be accessed via a 30 -foot flag. This flag, because it does not meet the minimum lot width, will require an exception to the minimum lot width requirement. All three lots will be accessed from Barabara Drive, a developed City street. There is an existing structure on Tract A. The surveyor has provided an overlay of an as- built showing the existing structures. Based on the preliminary plat and the overlay submitted with the original plat, it appears this plat may create encroachments to existing structures. The final plat will be required to verify that no encroachments are created by the plat. All parcels will be served with onsite water and sewer and must be ADEC approved. PZ11 -38 Comments Page 2 Building Official: No building code issues. RECOMMENDATIONS Recommend approval with the following requirements: • Plat does not dedicate a right -of -way. Note 3 should be removed. • Plat no longer dedicates a right-of-way. Plat note 5 should be removed. • Plat note 8 should be removed. Lots will be served by on -site water and septic systems that must be approved by ADEC. • Prior to recording final plat, an as-built survey must be provided to verify the subdivision does not create encroachments for the existing structures. • Recommend an exception to the minimum lot width as required in KMC 14.20.020 Development Requirements be granted for lot A2. The building setback will be measured from that portion of the lot that meets the minimum lot width. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution No. PZ 11 -3 8 2.

The clinic will provide multiple health care services for members of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe, Alaskan Natives and Native American Indians. Services will include primary care, eye care, dental care, wellness activities, behavioral health and substance abuse services. In addition, the center will provide a place for the Kenaitze to gather for social and cultural events including classrooms and a meditation /traditional healing area. These properties are located in the Townsite Historic (TSH) Zoning District. The TSH Zoning District "is intended to provide for a mixed, controlled use in a designated area, which will protect and enhance the historic character of the zone. The goal of the TSH zone is to manage all new development, reconstruction and alterations within the zone. "1 Development criteria within the TSH Zoning District are detailed in KMC 14.20.105(c). Commercial buildings are limited to a total area of no more than five thousand (5,000) square feet per story.2 The development plans for the clinic has determined that a 2 -story 52,000 square feet building (26,000 per story) is necessary to accommodate uses identified above. The Kenaitze Indian Tribe is asking for a variance from the building size restriction to allow construction of the facility. KMC 14.20.180 details the intent and application process for Variance Permits. The Code also outlines the review criteria that should be used by the Planning and Zoning Commission to determine if a variance should be granted. The Commission shall establish a finding that all of the following conditions exist as a prerequisite to issuance of a variance permit: 1. Special conditions or circumstances are present which are peculiar to the land or structures involved which are not applicable to other lands or structures in the same zoning 1 KMC 14.20.105(a) 2 KMC 14.20.105(c)(4) PZ1 1-35 — Comments Page 3 district. The application explains why the Kenaitze Indian Tribe believes this criterion is met. Excerpted from the application, "This site is part of the original Kenaitze Indian tribal village site which makes it culturally and historically significant to the Kenaitze People. The building will require approximately 52,000 SF to house all of its facilities which will make it the largest building in the zoning district. The services that the center will provide are exclusive to the area. The center will provide health care services for members of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe, Alaskan Natives and Native American Indians. The health care services will include primary care, eye care, dental care, wellness activities, behavioral health and substance abuse services. This will be the only building in the zoning district and in fact, in all of Kenai, to efficiently consolidate all of these services in one building." Staff finds that special conditions and circumstances are present which are peculiar to the land. This is the site of the original Kenaitze Indian tribal village. The Tribe is sensitive to this cultural and historically significant area and is planning a development to serve the medical /cultural needs of the tribal members. The project has been carefully considered to incorporate areas to meet their cultural /social needs. The original inhabitants of this land should be allowed to develop the land to meet the needs of their members. 2. The special conditions or circumstances have not been caused by actions of the applicant and such conditions and circumstances do not merely constitute a pecuniary hardship or inconvenience. The Kenaitze Indian Tribe has been researching this project for a lengthy period of time and considered various options. The size of the building is necessary to accommodate the facility. The request does not merely constitute a pecuniary hardship or inconvenience. Staff finds the application meets this requirement. 3. The granting of the variance shall not authorize a use that is not a permitted principal use in the zoning district in which the property is located. PZ1 1-35 — Comments Page 4 The variance requested does not authorize a use that is not a permitted principal use in the zoning district. This is a request to relax a development requirement for the size of the structure. Staff finds this requirement is met. 4. The granting of a variance shall be the minimum variance that will provide for the reasonable use of the land and /or structure. The Kenaitze Indian Tribe has been working with a team of dedicated architects to determine the minimum size for the building that will accommodate all the various services. The application is based on various codes and minimum construction standards for the various uses. Staff finds this standard is met. 5. The granting of a variance shall not be based upon other non- conforming land uses or structures within the same land use or zoning district. The requested variance is not based on other non- conforming land uses or structures in the same zoning district. Building Official: No comments. Building permit will be reviewed prior to construction. RECOMMENDATIONS This is a variance to construct a 52,000 square foot building in the TSH zoning district. The TSH zoning district development criteria restricts commercial buildings to a total area of 5,000 square feet. The TSH zoning district is historically significant to the City of Kenai and the State of Alaska. In 1996, the City of Kenai enlisted consultants to conduct a historic survey of the Townsite Historic Zoning District. That survey identified historical themes of the area: 3 • Dena'ina Building Tradition: A.D. 1000 -1890 • Russian Exploration and Fur Trade: 1741 -1866 • The Russian Orthodox Church: 1841 -1096 (extant properties, 1881 - 1906) • United States Purchase of Alaska, 1867: Fort Kenay, 1869 -1870 • Early Community Building Era: 1898 -1926 • Kenaitze Subsistence: 1 900 -1941 3 "Kenai Townsite Historic District Survey Report" — Page 11 PZ11 -35 — Comments Page 5 • Federal Programs for Agriculture and Sustainable Resource Management: 1898 -1958 (extant properties, 1935 -1958) "The Historic Townsite area sits on a bluff facing south, near the confluence of the Kenai River and Cook Inlet. From the period of Dena'ina occupation through the Kenaitze Subsistence Era, village residents walked down paths from the bluff to the beach below to fish and haul water. "4 The Kenaitze Indian Tribe is seeking this variance to allow them to construct a 52,000 square foot building to house a medical clinic and provide an area for social and cultural events including classrooms and a meditation /traditional healing area. The Tribe, the original occupants of this land, have carefully considered options for the planned facility and determined this location and the size of the structure meets the needs of their members. With careful and controlled site development, as shown on the attached plans, the building can be built in the TSH zone in a manner to preserve the integrity of the zone and to protect the cultural and historical significance of the district.

Zoning Analysis Zoning The following zoning analysis is based on the City of Kenai Code of Ordinances and in conversations with Marilyn Kebschull at the City of Kenai Planning Department. This property is zoned Townsite Historic (TSH Zone). Land Use In the Townsite Historic zoning district Clinic's are considered a Conditional Use and Professional Offices are considered a Principal Permitted Use. In order for the clinic to be built in the Townsite Historic Zone, you must apply for a Conditional Use Permit. In the Townsite Historic zoning district commercial buildings are limited to a total area of no more than five thousand (5,000) square feet per story. In order for the clinic to be built in the Townsite Historic Zone, you must apply for a Variance Permit. Development Requirements If the building is one (1) or two (2) stories, there is a ten foot (10') setback from the front of the lot, a ten foot (10') setback from the rear of the lot and a five foot (5') setback from the sides of the lot. If the building is more than two stories the front setback remains the same, but for each story over two (2) stories, each side and rear yard shall be increased three feet (3'), but need not exceed fourteen feet (14') for each side yard and nineteen feet (19') for the rear yard. The zoning requires a sixty foot (60') minimum lot width and has a forty percent (40 %) maximum lot coverage requirement. All structures in aircraft - approach zones and within eight thousand feet (8,000') of the main runway shall be subject to height limitation on the basis of obstruction criteria as shown on the current FAA - approved Kenai Airport Master Plan drawings which are on file at Kenai City Hall. Through conversations with Casey Madden (master planner for the airport) it was determined that a multi -story building would not be a problem in this location. Design Standards for Off - Street Parking KMC section 14.25.045 (d) (1) requires paving. Parking For Care Facilities: Medical / Dental Clinics and Health Services, One (1) per two hundred fifty (250) square feet of gross floor area. Gross Floor Area of Proposed Health and Wellness Clinic = 52,000 sf. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 Parking Requirements: 208 total parking spaces required, seven (7) of those spaces are required to be accessible parking spaces. The city has indicated that if the client can provide a well documented approach to calculating actual parking requirements this would be an acceptable alternative to the prescribed zoning calculations. In the Program of Requirements the government has documented a requirement for 144 parking spaces (including one space for a bus). The city zoning code, section 14.20.250 (b) (2), allows for a reduction in parking up to 25% in cases of mixed use and where a shared parking agreement between different users can be agreed upon. The Dena'ina Health and Wellness Clinic meets this requirement in two ways. First the facility house several mixed uses including: primary care clinic, dental clinic, behavior health clinic, wellness group rooms and studios, education classrooms, administrative suites, and public lobby space that will in effect serve as a cultural center for the Kenaitze Indian Tribe. Second the tribe currently occupies an adjacent building on a contiguous lot serving the Elders of the tribe as an Elder Center and dining facility. The adjacent Tyotkas Elder's Center has 108 seats and is required to provide one parking space for each four seat. Tyotkas Elder's Center is required to provide 27 parking places. The total combined parking requirement for both facilities is 235 parking spaces. Reducing this parking requirement by 25% due to mixed use and a shared parking agreement leaves a minimum of 177 required parking spaces between the two facilities. Lighting Any lighting of parking lots shall be arranged to reflect away from public rights -of -way and from any adjoining residential areas. Off- Street Loading /Unloading Every building or structure used for business, trade, or industry and normally requiring truck loading or unloading with respect to the use, shall provide space for the loading and unloading of vehicles off the street or public alley. Retail business and service establishments shall provide one off - street loading and unloading space at least ten feet (10') wide and thirty -eight (38') long with a fourteen foot (14') height clearance per building. This requirement shall apply to both the Dena'ina Health and Wellness Clinic and to Tyotkas Elder's Center. Open Storage No open storage shall be located closer than twenty -five feet (25') to the adjoining right -of -way of any collector street or main thoroughfare. Any open storage visible from a collector street or main thoroughfare shall be enclosed with an eight -foot (8') high fence of good appearance acceptable to the Commission Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 Curb Cuts Curb cuts shall be located so as to avoid traffic hazards and shall be approved by the administrative official. Landscaping Requirements Interior landscaping involves those areas of the property exclusive of the perimeter and parking lot areas. Screening or visual enhancement landscaping is recommended to accent or complement the building and to identify and highlight entrances to the site. Landscaping may include landscaping beds, trees and shrubs, but an amount is not specified in the zoning code. Parking lot landscaping involves the land areas adjacent to or within the parking lot and associated access drive. Parking lot landscaping serves to provide visual relief between vehicle parking areas and the remainder of the development. It also is desirable for the purpose of improving vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns. Street right -of -way landscaping softens the impact of land uses along street rights -of -way, but does not obscure land uses from sight. Landscaping beds must meet all of the following minimum standards: Landscaping Beds: Minimum of ten feet (10') in width along the entire length of the property lines which adjoin street rights -of -way, exclusive of driveways and other ingress and egress openings. Ground Cover: One hundred percent (100 %) ground cover of the landscaping bed within three (3) years of planting and continuous maintenance so there will be no exposed soil. Trees and /or shrubs appropriate for the climate shall be included in the landscaping beds. Snow Storage/ Removal and Drainage Snow storage /removal and drainage as referenced on the site plan shall be compatible with the surrounding area. Dumpsters Dumpsters must be screened with sight- obscuring structure made of wood or concrete. The Administrative Official may approve other construction materials. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 7. Concept Design Narratives 7a. Site and Landscape Design Narrative Site Concept Throughout the design process to date, it has been made very clear that this site has a special opportunity to represent and speak of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe. The stories that this site will tell include not only traditional and historical narratives, but a living story about a people who are experiencing a resurgence. An evocative metaphor is that of the tide which is returning. A people of the and and the sea, upland and lowland, and river and ocean. There is a richness in what we have heard that provides ample opportunity to develop a meaningful site design. This is also a place of health and wellness. The ultimate goal for the site will be to reinforce not only that this is a peaceful place meant for those purposes, but to also perhaps be a part of that journey to wellness. This site is also part of the original Kenaitze tribal village and holds special significance in the memories of the elders. Habitat Path The path that connects Overland to Upland along the north of the site will be designed to create a feeling of moving from upland habitat to lowland or shoreline habitat. The character of the trail should be soft, so the surfacing is ideally something like wood chips. Along this trail will be planted representative species of the habitats you would expect to move through as you descended from the land to the sea. These species would be useful as examples from a botanical point of view, but also for their ethnobotanical importance to the Kenaitze. This would be a similar underlying theme to the plantings for the site in general, that they are native species that have always been around the Kenaitze, with many having particular importance or uses. Welcoming Plaza Similar to how the building's atrium provides a welcoming space, the outside welcoming plaza will greet people to this part of the site. The intent is that this space works in tandem with the building's entry space to develop an overall feeling of entry and welcome. Amphitheater An informal amphitheater will be included as a component of the Welcoming Plaza. As an informal amphitheater, the intent will be that the amphitheater blends into both the surrounding landscape and the plaza itself. This will be accomplished through having the amphitheater terraces begin with a concrete seat wall at the bottom, transitioning perhaps to other levels of seating that are rock, timber or similar organic materials /forms. These rings of seating could be echoed elsewhere in the plaza, but with a shared central focal point. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 Performance Space The open space of the welcoming plaza will be sized to accommodate group uses such as dancing, drumming and performances. The intent for this space is that it is a hard surface such as concrete or pavers. There is the option that a softer surface (such as stabilized soil or wood chips) be incorporated within or beside this space. Council Ring In addition to a main gathering space, a 'council ring' has been provided which will allow small groups of people to sit with one another in an intimate setting. Connected to the 'habitat' trail to the northeast of the building, this space is set off the pathway and will consist of a circular space formed between two semi - circular seat walls. The character of this space is intended to be forest like, but open enough to the south to allow good sunshine. The materials for the seat wall would be poured concrete or stone, and the surfacing should be a material that provides a natural effect. This could be concrete or stone pavers, or a material such as stabilized earth. The materials chosen will depend on cost, desired maintenance, and aesthetic. Speaking Nook For more private conversations or individual contemplation, a sitting area will be provided that while visible from other areas, will provide for a feeling of privacy. The character of this space will also be natural. Whether access by a path, or pavers or grass, the space will be set among plantings and have a natural character. Any seating should be wood or stone in character. Earthen Circle A smaller area is provided off the Welcoming Plaza that is suitable for a performance or practice space. Outside of the main plaza area, this location may be suitable for a softer surface such as stabilized earth. With binders added to soils, it creates a more stable and longer lasting surface that has a more natural feel and is more resilient. Central Tree There is an aging cottonwood on the site that we have been told is a birth tree. For the development of this facility, it is recommended that this tree be respectfully removed. As opportunities allow, the tree could be re -used in the new construction in one way or another. In the development of the Welcoming Plaza, a central spot has been retained as an ideal focal point for something like a new commemorative tree or sculpture. For All Ages A goal for the site will be that it is interactive and invites people to experience it. Just like the Alaskan landscapes we experience outside of the city, this should be a site where children are invited to scramble over rocks and experience the dirt up dose. This should be a site where someone is welcome to get off the pathways and relax on a well - placed rock. While this does create a potential for use that perhaps damages plantings, the key will be to design to anticipate and accommodate such use. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 7c. Architectural Narrative At the concept stage materials and usages are only suggested in the drawings. The materials of the exterior wall are regulated by codes and by conditions of the environment. The analysis below addresses building materials and uses that may be incorporated into the final design. Roof system Roofs are designed as low -slope with a pitch of 1/4" per foot, except at the commons area. We are planning for a white colored PVC roof membrane in areas where we do not anticipate regular foot traffic. In areas used for roof access we will overlay the roof membrane with a paver system requiring the upgrade of the roof membrane to handle the anticipated wear. Roof insulation will consist of rigid EPS insulation installed over either the ribbed metal decking or over heavy timber decking. If structural insulated panels are used in the roofing assembly over the commons the membrane will be installed over the roof panels directly without additional insulation. If roof tapers are needed for drainage they will be formed from EPS insulation. Wall Systems The wall systems planned for the new Dena'ina Wellness Center will create a high efficiency thermal envelope. Current energy codes require that the majority of the wall insulation be placed on the outside of steel stud framing. For this reason the wall assemblies currently being used differ from traditional wall assemblies in which the insulation is placed in the stud voids. The engineers have calculated that approximately 60% of the value of metal stud wall insulation is lost through heat transmission through the metal studs themselves. We are evaluating the use of horizontally applied layers of rigid insulation installed over the exterior wall framing with the exterior sheathing, moisture barrier and finish siding installed over that. We will evaluate the actual wall assemblies and exterior finishes more closely in the next design phase, however, for estimating purposes we anticipate that approximately 40% of the exterior wall surfaces will be composed of a composite polymer panel system that has the appearance of wood paneling. The remainder of the exterior siding will be a manufactured, prefinished metal siding and or natural wood. Second Floor Construction The second floor will be a composite concrete and metal decking assembly. The floor does not have to be fireproofed and the ceiling materials used will be selected based on design requirement or aesthetics. Interior Finishes Interior finishes are not a particular part of the concept submittal package. It is our intention to provide an interior that has natural materials including stone and wood. We like the idea of leaving structural framing exposed in places to demonstrate the way the building has been designed. Our elders and youth have said that they do not want the interior to consist of white walls and suspended T -bar ceilings. We will take that to heart. Much of the interior can use locally available materials and /or recycled materials. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 a.

The clinic will provide multiple health care services for members of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe, Alaskan Natives and Native American Indians. Services will include primary care, eye care, dental care, wellness activities, behavioral health and substance abuse services. In addition, the center will provide a place for the Kenaitze to gather for social and cultural events including classrooms and a meditation/traditional healing area. These properties are located in the Townsite Historic (TSH) Zoning District. The TSH Zoning District "is intended to provide for a mixed, controlled use in a designated area, which will protect and enhance the historic character of the zone. The goal of the TSH zone is to manage all new development, reconstruction and alterations within the zone. "1 Clinics require a Conditional Use Permit in the TSH zone.2 The development plans for the clinic has determined that a 2 -story 52,000 square feet building (26,000 per story) is necessary to accommodate uses identified above. The Kenaitze Indian Tribe is asking for a variance from the building size restriction to allow construction of the facility. That variance was heard by the Commission under PZ11 -35. Granting this Conditional Use Permit will be contingent upon Commission's approval of PZ11 -35. KMC 14.20.150 details the intent and application process for conditional uses. The code also specifies the review criteria that must be satisfied prior to issuing the permit. The criteria are: Y The use is consistent with the purpose of this chapter and the purposes and intent of the zoning district. • The TSH district "is intended to provide for a mixed, controlled use in a designated area, which will protect and enhance the historic character of the zone. The goal of the TSH zone is to manage all new development, reconstruction and alterations within the zone." This clinic will provide a clinic for medical services including primary care, eye care, dental care, wellness activities, behavioral health and substance abuse services. In addition, the center will provide a place for the Kenaitze to gather for social and cultural events including classrooms and a meditation /traditional healing area. A mixed use facility. 1 KMC 14.20.105(a) 2 KMC 14.22.010 PZ11 -36 Comments Page 3 The Kenaitze are the original inhabitants of this area. As the application describes, "As the first inhabitants of Kenai, it is appropriate that a center owned by the Kenaitze and devoted to native health should be located in the historic district." "The facility will be celebrating the culture and past of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe. The site chosen for the center is part of the original Kenaitze Indian tribal village which makes it culturally and historically significant to the Kenaitze people." "Providing a place where the Kenaitze can reconnect with their traditional values should certainly be considered protecting the history of the area." The TSH zoning district provides development guidelines. The proposed development appears to meet the intent of those criteria with the exception of the building size which is being considered for a variance under a separate permit. Staff finds the application meets this requirement if the variance for building size is met. Y The value of the adjoining property and neighborhood will not be significantly impaired. The proposed development will not impair the adjoining property in the area and should encourage development and revitalization in the TSH zoning district. ➢ The proposed use is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan. The area is classified as Mixed Use /Townsite Historic District in the Comprehensive Plan. Mixed Use is defined as, "The Mixed Use district fosters a compatible mix of retail, service, office, public, institutional, recreational and multi family residential uses. The district does not prescribe specific proportions for these uses, only that all these uses are desirable within the district. Mixed uses are particularly desirable in the Townsite Historic District and City Center overlay zone. "3 "The Kenai Townsite Historic District, comprising thirty-four properties in the traditional townsite, was created by the City of Kenai in 1993. The district is locally significant, but does not meet the standards for a National Register Historic District. Several individual buildings may qualify. The district's buildings span Kenai's evolution from its origin as a subsistence village through the Russian settlement period to today's modern city. Unhappily, many of the district's oldest, most historic buildings were lost before the city created a special zoning district and ordinance to conserve the old townsite. The goal is to manage new development, reconstruction, and 3 City of Kenai Comprehensive Plan — Page 29 PZ11 -36 Comments Page 4 building alterations to protect and enhance the district 's historic character. All construction in the district must be compatible with development criteria. Residential and business uses are regarded as desirable and compatible mixed uses. "4 The proposed use appears in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan. This is a mixed -use development. No historical buildings will be removed as part of the development plan. The site has been planned to be compatible with the development criteria for the TSH zoning district with the exception of the building size which will be considered under a separate permit. Public services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use. The site is served by city water and sewer, natural gas, electric, and telephone. The site is served by paved, maintained city streets. Public services are adequate to serve the proposed use. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare. The proposed use is for a medical, cultural and educational facility. The clinic will provide overall health care for the Kenaitze Indian Tribe, Alaskan Natives and Native American Indians. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health, or welfare. Any and all specific conditions deemed necessary by the commission to fulfill the above - mentioned conditions should be met by the applicant. These may include, but are not limited to measures relative to access, screening, site development, building design, operation of the use and other similar aspects related to the proposed use. No special conditions are necessary to fulfill the above- mentioned conditions. RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the application and a review of the criteria required to approve the permit, it appears the application meets the intent of the zone and complies with the Comprehensive Plan. Recommend approval with the following requirements: 1. PZ11 -35 Variance Permit for building size must be approved. 2.

It will not provide emergency services, but will include urgent care and transport to the hospital. It is the purpose of the center to provide total wellness to Alaskan Natives so it will have only positive impacts on the community. 6.Any and all specific conditions deemed necessary by the commission to fulfill the above - mentioned conditions should be met by the applicant. These may include, but are not limited to measures relative to access, screening, site development, building design, operation of the use and other similar aspects related to the proposed use. The applicant is willing to meet any and all conditions deemed necessary. Many of the listed conditions have already been taken into account. Access to the building has been heavily considered with particular interest given to a trail system linking the building and the surrounding area. Additionally, landscape screening, site development and building design will all play a significant role in creating a very attractive building. The building will be set back from the property line, and stepped to help reduce the overall mass of the building. LAND USE Describe current use of property covered by this application: Vacant land. Surrounding property: (Describe how land adjacent to the property is currently being used) North: On the lot north of the property there are currently residential apartment buildings. South: On the lot south of the property there is currently an elder's center for the Kenaitze Indian Tribe and across Mission Avenue there are residential apartment buildings. East: On the lot east of the property there is a bed and breakfast. West: On the lot west of the property there is a Kenaitze owned residence and another residential/ commercial building. 9/27/2010 Page 3 of 4 1 The Dena'ina Wellness Center is suitable to the townsite historic zoning district for many reasons. First, it is owned by the Kenaitze Indian Tribe and will be for the benefit of Alaskan Natives and Native American Indians. It will be built on land which the Kenaitze own, in an area that they have always inhabited and that has been an important part of their culture. As the first inhabitants of Kenai, it is appropriate that a center owned by the Kenaitze and devoted to native health should be located in the historic district. Secondly, the townsite historic district is intended to "protect and enhance the historic character of the zone." The facility will be celebrating the culture and past of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe. The site chosen for the center is part of the original Kenaitze Indian tribal village which makes it culturally and historically significant to the Kenaitze people. In a section of Kenai that includes the town's original Russian Orthodox church and the site for Fort Kenay, it makes sense to allow the Kenaitze to use their land to help their people and celebrate their culture. The center will offer traditional healing and also give the Kenaitze a place to gather for social and cultural events. Providing a place where the Kenaitze can reconnect with their traditional values should certainly be considered protecting the history of the area. 2 The Dena'ina Wellness Center will not impair the property value in the neighborhood at all, it will, in fact, greatly increase the property value of the area. The construction of this clinic will revitalize old town Kenai, increase the property value of the surrounding lots, enhance the tourist attraction of Old Town and in all likelihood increase the number of small health care providers in the community. After the facility is completed, the area will become very popular amongst health professionals. If other professionals begin to move into the area and convert current properties into offices or clinics, that will increase those properties values. The addition of the health and wellness clinic will also provide new housing opportunities in the area. Some of the surrounding apartments could be converted to elder centers or possibly be developed into new condominiums. 3 The Dena'ina Wellness Center will meet at least six of the nine goals listed in the Comprehensive Plan. The second goal outlined in the plan is to "Protect and rejuvenate the livability of residential neighborhoods." After the clinic is completed, old town can certainly expect rejuvenation. Adding a new clinic and cultural center will increase interest in old town, both for new professionals as well as for people interested in Kenaitze history. The center should also meet the needs of Kenai's growing senior population. One of the center's main goals will be to serve Alaskan Natives. This must include the Kenaitze Indian Tribe and their seniors. In fact, the site for the facility is located next to the existing Kenaitze elders center, so it will be extremely convenient for them to have a place where all their medical needs are met, as well as having a place to gather socially. It will also be a much more efficient care provider than the seniors currently have, because all of the medical services will be consolidated in one building, rather than spread around town. The Center will promote residential and commercial development by bringing in new professionals and new money to the area as a whole. It's likely that after the building is finished, that the area around its site will become a hub for other health professionals seeking to capitalize on the success of the clinic. When they begin to move in and open up offices, it will only increase the value of the property in the surrounding area. This will in turn make a more attractive location for future developments like elders centers, health care providers, condominiums or other residential buildings. The Comprehensive Plan also states that a development should "provide appropriate facilities and levels of service." The Dena'ina Wellness Center will be more than appropriate for the needs of the Kenaitze. It will provide primary care and dental care as well as behavioral health services. The center is aimed at promoting wellness not just of the body, but of the person as a whole, and by including these many types of health care in one building, the center will provide a level of service unavailable anywhere else. The site for the Wellness Center will include a trail system to allow ease of access for pedestrians while also creating paths through old town. Enhancing the trail system in the area will help connect Old Town and provide easier access to the beach and to all of the historic buildings in the district. The final goal of the plan is to provide new public facilities that increase the quality of life for Kenai's citizens and visitors. The center will serve over 3000 native people from Kenai and the surrounding communities. This is a significant portion of the population who will receive care and benefit from an increased quality of life.

Zoning Analysis Zoning The following zoning analysis is based on the City of Kenai Code of Ordinances and in conversations with Marilyn Kebschull at the City of Kenai Planning Department. This property is zoned Townsite Historic (TSH Zone). Land Use In the Townsite Historic zoning district Clinic's are considered a Conditional Use and Professional Offices are considered a Principal Permitted Use. In order for the clinic to be built in the Townsite Historic Zone, you must apply for a Conditional Use Permit. In the Townsite Historic zoning district commercial buildings are limited to a total area of no more than five thousand (5,000) square feet per story. In order for the clinic to be built in the Townsite Historic Zone, you must apply for a Variance Permit. Development Requirements If the building is one (1) or two (2) stories, there is a ten foot (10') setback from the front of the lot, a ten foot (10') setback from the rear of the lot and a five foot (5') setback from the sides of the lot. If the building is more than two stories the front setback remains the same, but for each story over two (2) stories, each side and rear yard shall be increased three feet (3'), but need not exceed fourteen feet (14') for each side yard and nineteen feet (19') for the rear yard. The zoning requires a sixty foot (60') minimum lot width and has a forty percent (40 %) maximum lot coverage requirement. All structures in aircraft - approach zones and within eight thousand feet (8,000') of the main runway shall be subject to height limitation on the basis of obstruction criteria as shown on the current FAA - approved Kenai Airport Master Plan drawings which are on file at Kenai City Hall. Through conversations with Casey Madden (master planner for the airport) it was determined that a multi -story building would not be a problem in this location. Design Standards for Off - Street Parking KMC section 14.25.045 (d) (1) requires paving. Parking For Care Facilities: Medical / Dental Clinics and Health Services, One (1) per two hundred fifty (250) square feet of gross floor area. Gross Floor Area of Proposed Health and Wellness Clinic = 52,000 sf. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 Parking Requirements: 208 total parking spaces required, seven (7) of those spaces are required to be accessible parking spaces. The city has indicated that if the client can provide a well documented approach to calculating actual parking requirements this would be an acceptable alternative to the prescribed zoning calculations. In the Program of Requirements the government has documented a requirement for 144 parking spaces (including one space for a bus). The city zoning code, section 14.20.250 (b) (2), allows for a reduction in parking up to 25% in cases of mixed use and where a shared parking agreement between different users can be agreed upon. The Dena'ina Health and Wellness Clinic meets this requirement in two ways. First the facility house several mixed uses including: primary care clinic, dental clinic, behavior health clinic, wellness group rooms and studios, education classrooms, administrative suites, and public lobby space that will in effect serve as a cultural center for the Kenaitze Indian Tribe. Second the tribe currently occupies an adjacent building on a contiguous lot serving the Elders of the tribe as an Elder Center and dining facility. The adjacent Tyotkas Elder's Center has 108 seats and is required to provide one parking space for each four seat. Tyotkas Elder's Center is required to provide 27 parking places. The total combined parking requirement for both facilities is 235 parking spaces. Reducing this parking requirement by 25% due to mixed use and a shared parking agreement leaves a minimum of 177 required parking spaces between the two facilities. Lighting Any lighting of parking lots shall be arranged to reflect away from public rights -of -way and from any adjoining residential areas. Off- Street Loading /Unloading Every building or structure used for business, trade, or industry and normally requiring truck loading or unloading with respect to the use, shall provide space for the loading and unloading of vehicles off the street or public alley. Retail business and service establishments shall provide one off - street loading and unloading space at least ten feet (10') wide and thirty -eight (38') long with a fourteen foot (14') height clearance per building. This requirement shall apply to both the Dena'ina Health and Wellness Clinic and to Tyotkas Elder's Center. Open Storage No open storage shall be located closer than twenty -five feet (25') to the adjoining right -of -way of any collector street or main thoroughfare. Any open storage visible from a collector street or main thoroughfare shall be enclosed with an eight -foot (8') high fence of good appearance acceptable to the Commission Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 Curb Cuts Curb cuts shall be located so as to avoid traffic hazards and shall be approved by the administrative official. Landscaping Requirements Interior landscaping involves those areas of the property exclusive of the perimeter and parking lot areas. Screening or visual enhancement landscaping is recommended to accent or complement the building and to identify and highlight entrances to the site. Landscaping may include landscaping beds, trees and shrubs, but an amount is not specified in the zoning code. Parking lot landscaping involves the land areas adjacent to or within the parking lot and associated access drive. Parking lot landscaping serves to provide visual relief between vehicle parking areas and the remainder of the development. It also is desirable for the purpose of improving vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns. Street right -of -way landscaping softens the impact of land uses along street rights -of -way, but does not obscure land uses from sight. Landscaping beds must meet all of the following minimum standards: Landscaping Beds: Minimum of ten feet (10') in width along the entire length of the property lines which adjoin street rights -of -way, exclusive of driveways and other ingress and egress openings. Ground Cover: One hundred percent (100 %) ground cover of the landscaping bed within three (3) years of planting and continuous maintenance so there will be no exposed soil. Trees and /or shrubs appropriate for the climate shall be included in the landscaping beds. Snow Storage/ Removal and Drainage Snow storage /removal and drainage as referenced on the site plan shall be compatible with the surrounding area. Dumpsters Dumpsters must be screened with sight- obscuring structure made of wood or concrete. The Administrative Official may approve other construction materials. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 7. Concept Design Narratives 7a. Site and Landscape Design Narrative Site Concept Throughout the design process to date, it has been made very clear that this site has a special opportunity to represent and speak of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe. The stories that this site will tell include not only traditional and historical narratives, but a living story about a people who are experiencing a resurgence. An evocative metaphor is that of the tide which is returning. A people of the land and the sea, upland and lowland, and river and ocean. There is a richness in what we have heard that provides ample opportunity to develop a meaningful site design. This is also a place of health and wellness. The ultimate goal for the site will be to reinforce not only that this is a peaceful place meant for those purposes, but to also perhaps be a part of that journey to wellness. This site is also part of the original Kenaitze tribal village and holds special significance in the memories of the elders. Habitat Path The path that connects Overland to Upland along the north of the site will be designed to create a feeling of moving from upland habitat to lowland or shoreline habitat. The character of the trail should be soft, so the surfacing is ideally something like wood chips. Along this trail will be planted representative species of the habitats you would expect to move through as you descended from the land to the sea. These species would be useful as examples from a botanical point of view, but also for their ethnobotanical importance to the Kenaitze. This would be a similar underlying theme to the plantings for the site in general, that they are native species that have always been around the Kenaitze, with many having particular importance or uses. Welcoming Plaza Similar to how the building's atrium provides a welcoming space, the outside welcoming plaza will greet people to this part of the site. The intent is that this space works in tandem with the building's entry space to develop an overall feeling of entry and welcome. Amphitheater An informal amphitheater will be included as a component of the Welcoming Plaza. As an informal amphitheater, the intent will be that the amphitheater blends into both the surrounding landscape and the plaza itself. This will be accomplished through having the amphitheater terraces begin with a concrete seat wall at the bottom, transitioning perhaps to other levels of seating that are rock, timber or similar organic materials /forms. These rings of seating could be echoed elsewhere in the plaza, but with a shared central focal point. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 Performance Space The open space of the welcoming plaza will be sized to accommodate group uses such as dancing, drumming and performances. The intent for this space is that it is a hard surface such as concrete or pavers. There is the option that a softer surface (such as stabilized soil or wood chips) be incorporated within or beside this space. Council Ring In addition to a main gathering space, a 'council ring' has been provided which will allow small groups of people to sit with one another in an intimate setting. Connected to the 'habitat' trail to the northeast of the building, this space is set off the pathway and will consist of a circular space formed between two semi - circular seat walls. The character of this space is intended to be forest like, but open enough to the south to allow good sunshine. The materials for the seat wall would be poured concrete or stone, and the surfacing should be a material that provides a natural effect. This could be concrete or stone pavers, or a material such as stabilized earth. The materials chosen will depend on cost, desired maintenance, and aesthetic. Speaking Nook For more private conversations or individual contemplation, a sitting area will be provided that while visible from other areas, will provide for a feeling of privacy. The character of this space will also be natural. Whether access by a path, or pavers or grass, the space will be set among plantings and have a natural character. Any seating should be wood or stone in character. Earthen Circle A smaller area is provided off the Welcoming Plaza that is suitable for a performance or practice space. Outside of the main plaza area, this location may be suitable for a softer surface such as stabilized earth. With binders added to soils, it creates a more stable and longer lasting surface that has a more natural feel and is more resilient. Central Tree There is an aging cottonwood on the site that we have been told is a birth tree. For the development of this facility, it is recommended that this tree be respectfully removed. As opportunities allow, the tree could be re -used in the new construction in one way or another. In the development of the Welcoming Plaza, a central spot has been retained as an ideal focal point for something like a new commemorative tree or sculpture. For All Ages A goal for the site will be that it is interactive and invites people to experience it. Just like the Alaskan landscapes we experience outside of the city, this should be a site where children are invited to scramble over rocks and experience the dirt up close. This should be a site where someone is welcome to get off the pathways and relax on a well - placed rock. While this does create a potential for use that perhaps damages plantings, the key will be to design to anticipate and accommodate such use. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 7c. Architectural Narrative At the concept stage materials and usages are only suggested in the drawings. The materials of the exterior wall are regulated by codes and by conditions of the environment. The analysis below addresses building materials and uses that may be incorporated into the final design. Roof system Roofs are designed as low -slope with a pitch of 1/4" per foot, except at the commons area. We are planning for a white colored PVC roof membrane in areas where we do not anticipate regular foot traffic. In areas used for roof access we will overlay the roof membrane with a paver system requiring the upgrade of the roof membrane to handle the anticipated wear. Roof insulation will consist of rigid EPS insulation installed over either the ribbed metal decking or over heavy timber decking. If structural insulated panels are used in the roofing assembly over the commons the membrane will be installed over the roof panels directly without additional insulation. If roof tapers are needed for drainage they will be formed from EPS insulation. Wall Systems The wall systems planned for the new Dena'ina Wellness Center will create a high efficiency thermal envelope. Current energy codes require that the majority of the wall insulation be placed on the outside of steel stud framing. For this reason the wall assemblies currently being used differ from traditional wall assemblies in which the insulation is placed in the stud voids. The engineers have calculated that approximately 60% of the value of metal stud wall insulation is lost through heat transmission through the metal studs themselves. We are evaluating the use of horizontally applied layers of rigid insulation installed over the exterior wall framing with the exterior sheathing, moisture barrier and finish siding installed over that. We will evaluate the actual wall assemblies and exterior finishes more closely in the next design phase, however, for estimating purposes we anticipate that approximately 40% of the exterior wall surfaces will be composed of a composite polymer panel system that has the appearance of wood paneling. The remainder of the exterior siding will be a manufactured, prefinished metal siding and or natural wood. Second Floor Construction The second floor will be a composite concrete and metal decking assembly. The floor does not have to be fireproofed and the ceiling materials used will be selected based on design requirement or aesthetics. Interior Finishes Interior finishes are not a particular part of the concept submittal package. It is our intention to provide an interior that has natural materials including stone and wood. We like the idea of leaving structural framing exposed in places to demonstrate the way the building has been designed. Our elders and youth have said that they do not want the interior to consist of white walls and suspended T -bar ceilings. We will take that to heart. Much of the interior can use locally available materials and /or recycled materials. Dena'ina Wellness Center Concept Design Submittal Kenaitze Indian Tribe DRAFT - June 2011 a.

During the 1995 "Kenai Townsite Historic Survey Report" this property was identified as meeting the criteria for designation and was issued Alaska Heritage Resource (AHRS) #KEN -274. The Alaska Heritage Resources Survey (AHRS) is an inventory of all reported historic and prehistoric sites within the State of Alaska and is maintained by the Office of History and Archaeology. This inventory of cultural resources includes objects, structures, buildings, sites, districts, and travel ways, with a general provision that they are over 50 years old. Information from the Survey regarding this structure is attached. The Kenaitze's began construction of a covered canopy over the existing handicap ramp to protect it from the weather before realizing a building permit would be required. Once notified the proper paperwork was submitted. There will be no additional work done to the existing structure. 11- 36Comments Page 2 Building Official: Construction will be completed in accordance with engineered plans submitted. RECOMMENDATIONS The planned modifications for this property will not jeopardize the historical integrity of this structure. In fact, as noted in the "Kenai Historic Townsite Survey Report ", "The former Pharmacy /Jahrig Electric Company building has lost its historic integrity due to the many modifications it has received." Recommend approval of the proposed modification to the structure. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution No. PZ 1 1 -38 2. Application 3. Drawings 4.
