The attached resolution recommends an amendment to KMC 14.22.010, "Land Use Table." The recommended changes are those identified during review of the Land Use Table for uses in the residential zones. In addition, I have included the category "Commercial Kennel" which will be added to "Animal Boarding." This was a recommendation after the adoption of Ordinance No. 2519 -2010. Unless the Commission's recommends an alternate schedule, I have set this resolution for public hearing on August 8th CITY OF KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. PZ12 -19 A RESOLUTION OF THE KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDING THAT KENAI CITY COUNCIL AMEND THE KENAI MUNICIPAL CODE, CHAPTER 14.22, "LAND USE TABLE," TO MAKE TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS BY DELETING DUPLICATIVE REFERENCES TO CERTAIN USES (PARKING, PRINTING, AND CHARITABLE INSTITUTIONS), DIVIDING OUT USES GROUPED TOGETHER SO THEY ARE SEPARATELY- LISTED USES, AND ADDING INTERNAL CODE REFERENCES. WHEREAS, the Land Use Table currently lists a single category of "Theaters /Commercial Recreation," yet these activities could be highly varied and separating the two uses (while keeping the land use permissions the same for each zoning districts) will better aid the public in the future in making determinations about which activities included in these uses may be allowed in various zones within the City; and, WHEREAS, the category "Animal Boarding" should be amended to clarify that it includes the use for a "Commercial Kennel "; and, WHEREAS, adding a reference in Footnote 13 regarding the City's animal control ordinances at Kenai Municipal Code Chapter 3.15 will help the public understand additional requirements adhere to animal control uses; and, WHEREAS, it is no longer necessary to specifically list some uses, like printing and charitable institutions, because those uses are already described and permitted through other allowed uses; and, WHEREAS, "Off- Street Parking" is regulated under KMC 14.20.250 so its separate listing in the Land Use Table is unnecessary where parking lots are already covered under a different entry in the Land Use Table; and, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THAT THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, AMEND KENAI MUNICIPAL CODE as shown on Attachment A: Dated at Kenai, Alaska this day of , 2012 CHAIR: ATTEST: New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] 14.22.010 Land use table.
