Subdivision from L &M Ventures, Inc. to Jersey Subs, Inc. — KPB Parcel No.
043 - 270 -10
The City has received a request to assign the lease for the above - referenced property. As
explained in the memo from Christine Cunningham, Assistant to City Manager, this property is
the site of Little Ski Mo's Burger & Brew. The lease for the property requires review and
approval by the Commission.
The Comprehensive Plan classifies the property as Mixed Use which provides for a mix of retail,
service, office, public, institutional, recreational, and multi - family residential uses. The property
is located in the Central Mixed Use zone. Restaurants are a permitted use in the zone. The
property is located in the Airport Reserve. The Airport Layout Plan identifies the property as
Commercial -Light Industrial (Sheet 12) and Non - Aviation (Sheet 13). In 1983, the FAA
released the property for lease for non - aviation purposes.
The proposed assignment conforms with the Comprehensive Plan, zoning, and the Airport
Layout Plan.
Does the Commission recommend approval of the assignment of lease from L &M
Ventures, Inc. to Jersey Subs, Inc.?

Parcel No. 043 - 270 -10
L &M Ventures, who operated Little Ski Mo's Burger & Brew, has leased the referenced
property located inside the Airport Reserve since the Lease was assigned in 1998. The
purpose for which the lease was issued was for a "restaurant." The term will expire on
June 30, 2077. Natasha Lott has requested an assignment of the lease to Jersey Subs,
Inc., on behalf of L &M Ventures, Inc. The proposed use of the property by Jersey Subs,
Inc. is for a restaurant, which is the approved purpose for which the Lease was issued.
The Lease requires the written consent of the City for any assignment. Additionally, the
assignment must be submitted to the Kenai Planning Commission for review and approval
prior to being submitted to the City Council.
Please review the attached letter and return your recommendations so that they may be
forwarded to the City Council at its June 6 Council Meeting.

MOTION:
Commissioner Knackstedt MOVED to approve PZ 12 -10 and Commissioner Rowell

City Planner Kebschull reviewed the staff report included in the packet, noting the
Commission needed to establish a finding that all the following conditions exist as a

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 district.
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.
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.
4. The granting of a variance shall be the minimum variance that will
provide for the reasonable use of the land and /or structure.
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.
Twait opened the meeting to public comment. There being no one wishing to speak,
the public hearing was closed.

GENERAL INFORMATION

43335 K -Beach Road, Suite 10
Soldotna, AK 99669
Requested Action: Preliminary Subdivision Plat— Carl F. Ahlstrom Subdivision 2012 Replat
Legal Description: A replat of Lots 14 and 15, Block 11, Carl F. Ahlstrom Subdivision (P1atNo.
K -216) also showing easement vacation
Street Address: 2603 & 2605 Wildwood Drive
KPB Parcel No.: 03906315 & 03906314
Existing Zoning: RS — Suburban Residential
Current Land Use: ResidentialNacant
Land Use Plan: Neighborhood Residential
ANALYSIS
This preliminary plat combines two parcels to create one large parcel. The area is zoned Suburban
Residential. The resulting parcel meets the development requirements for the Suburban Residential
zone. The property is accessed off Wildwood Drive, a developed right -of -way. The property is served
by City water and sewer. An installation agreement is not required.
There is a structure located on Lot 15. The preliminary plat does not show the setbacks for the
structure. However, because this plat increases the lot size, an encroachment will not be created by
the platting action.
This plat is also vacating a 20'foot utility easement that runs through the middle of new lot 14A. This
property is served by multiple utility easements. A 10 -foot utility easement runs along the exterior
property lines. The City of Kenai does not use these easements for water and sewer. The City has no
objection to the vacation; however, other utility companies should be contacted to determine if there is
a need to maintain the easements.
Building Official:
No building code issues.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommend approval with the following recommendations:
• Correct plat Note 2 — Building setback is 25 feet.
• Verify that other utility companies support the easement vacation.

Requested Action: Landscape /Site Plan — Impound /Storage Yard
Legal Description: Lot 3, Block 1, Bridge Road Subdivision No. 2
Street Address: 1153 Bridge Access Road
KPB Parcel No.: 04901303
Existing Zoning: Heavy Industrial (IH)
Current Land Use: Vacant
Land Use Plan: Industrial
ANALYSIS
General Information:
The City of Kenai has received a building permit application to construct a 72 -foot x 48-
foot (3,024 square feet) building on this site. KMC 14.25 requires a landscape /site plan
for the project. The previous owner cleared the land. No further landscaping is planned
other than cleaning up the existing vegetation along the Bridge Access Road property
line which meets the requirements for the street right -of -way landscaping. The parking
lot is gravel. Paving is not required in the Heavy Industrial zone. The yard will be fenced
with an 8 -foot high chain length fence.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Because this property was cleared by the previous owner, and is located in the Heavy
Industrial zone, no additional landscaping will be required. However, the natural
vegetation along the Bridge Access Road must be retained. Any development or
excavation in this area that disturbs the vegetation in the 10 -foot area would require
replanting to meet the requirements of KMC 14.25.
Plan is approved as submitted with the following requirements:
1. Existing natural vegetation must be retained. Any removal of existing
vegetation will require an updated plan to provide the required 10 -foot
right -of -way landscaping.
2. Snow storage must be located on the lot and cannot be placed on
required parking spaces or the snow must be removed from the site. No
PZ12 -14 Comments

2. Snow storage must be located on the lot and cannot be placed on
required parking spaces or the snow must be removed from the site.
No snow may be stored in such a manner that would block visibility
for ingress and egress to the lot.
3. No dumpster location is identified on the site plan. If a dumpster is
placed at the site, the structure for the dumpster must be constructed
of wood or concrete. City administration may approve other
materials prior to construction.
4. If construction of the project has not started within one year of the
approval of the landscaping /site plan, the approval may be revoked by
the Administrative Official after providing at least thirty (30) Day
notice unless extended for good cause.

Subject: Beaver Loop Road
Since I won't be able to attend P and Z meetings this summer, I want to urge you via this message to please not re -zone
Beaver Loop. Rural Residential is the correct zoning for the road. There have been some special use permits granted over
the years and that process seems to have worked well. Please do not try to 'improve' or 'fix' something that is not broken.
We all live on Beaver Loop because of its rural nature.
I have attended a few big community gatherings over the last couple of years designed to get community feedback for
the purpose of designing the Comprehensive Plan. It's true that 'economic development' was always mentioned as a goal.
But it is also true that at every meeting, citizens urged the city to contain the commercial areas of the city to the center of
town, to try to build a more vibrant downtown, and to fill vacant buildings. Please do not rezone entire rural residential
neighborhoods just to help someone who has a special interest in locating a business there.
A bike trail on Beaver Loop would be a welcome addition. Especially in the spring and summer, there is almost always
someone walking, running, or biking on the road, and speeders make it dangerous. The City would do well to promote
the relative tranquility of a neighborhood so close to town by promoting biking and walking there, and hooking that path
onto the bigger Unity Trail.
Thanks for your hard work on this commission- I am sure it isn't easy.
Laura Sievert
