PZ97-34 -Conditional Use Permit -Bed & Breakfast - 406 S Forest Drive (Lot 1, Block 6, Redoubt Terrace Subdivision, Kenai, Alaska. Applicant DeWayne 8s Diane Craig. Continued from July 23, 1997 meeting. Glick noted that this was a continuation from the last meeting so a motion was already made, the hearing was open to the public. Diane Craig, 406 S. Forest Drive, Kenai, Alaska--Craig stated that they haven't physically moved into the apartment yet as they were waiting to see what happens here tonight. Craig noted that they sold their home in Washington and are re-establishing residence in Alaska. Craig also noted that she is here to answer any questions that might come up and she thought the letter she and her husband DeWayne wrote expresses their desires for doing a bed and breakfast. Glick asked if there were any questions of Craig. Commissioner Christian asked if it was intended that just one of these apartments will be used as a bed Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 2 and breakfast and the other two apartments will still be occupied by rentals. Craig stated yes, those apartments are fully occupied just about 100% of the time. Christian asked if she would then have the fourth apartment. Craig stated that had been their residence before and they would take it back. Christian asked if it were their intention to rent it out as a bed and breakfast but it would basically be more of a suite rather than just a bedroom. Craig stated that they would be living in it too and they would just rent out bedroom space as other bed and breakfasts do and the clients would have access to the bathroom and they could sit in the living room. Christian asked if they would have access to the kitchen facilities. Craig stated that they will prepare a breakfast but they do not have access to the kitchen, basically it is set up for overnight guests with breakfast provided. Craig further pointed out that they will probably do the bed and breakfast seasonally from perhaps May through September depending on the tourist season. Christian asked if for the remainder of the time they would be renting the space. Craig stated that they will keep it as their residence now. Jack Castimore, 1533 Coho Circle, Redoubt Terrace Subdivision-- Jack Castimore stated that he lived in the same subdivision as Mrs. Craig and he owns four pieces of property in there, he pointed out that he has been around for a long time. Castimore stated that when that subdivision was set up it was set up logically with the houses in one area and a strip of apartments in another. He pointed out that this was logical in that you have higher density on one side of that subdivision and low density throughout it and it seems that the apartments, and the Craig's apartment also, are located along a very busy street which would be appropriate for a B&B. Castimore stated that he thought that a middle of a subdivision where there is a lot of residences is inappropriate for a B&B because they don't want high traffic. He further stated that currently there is a complete row of apartment complexes down there and it seems to be a very appropriate place for a B8vB and he encouraged the Commission to want them in an apartment complex where there is akeady a large amount of traffic coming and going rather than back in the subdivision where it's full of homes. Goecke asked Craig if they planned to use the apartment as their residence year around and a bed and breakfast for a portion of the time. Craig indicated that was correct. Goecke asked if it was fair to say that it would a B&B from May 1 through September 15. Craig indicated that was correct. Christian stated that this was a dilemma for him, he read the letters and the public statements and he would hate to vote against a neighborhood when they are very much against it. Christian further stated that this is a precedence setting venture to allow the first bed and breakfast in an Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 3 area but he thinks this is a special case and if this were located in any other lot in Redoubt Subdivision he would probably vote against it but he indicated that he would vote for it this time because it is on a road that is currently used by a great deal of tourist traffic already going to the park where a new wheelchair accessible park was established on the opposite side of the street. Christian pointed out that the parking near that particular 4-plex would not have any impact on the neighbors. Christian further stated that if any other block were to try this by saying that a precedence has been set, he would strongly oppose it but in this case it is appropriate and he will be voting in favor of it. Bryson stated that he will also voting in favor of it as he feels that it essentially meets the criteria for a bed and breakfast and the location is appropriate. VOTE Christian Yes Goecke Yes Bryston Yes Werner-Quade Yes Nord Yes Mahurin Absent Glick Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIIVIOUSLY 7. NEW BUSINESS: Glick stated that the next item was a code enforcement item and asked Kebschull if she had anything more to say on it. Kebschull stated that basically it was put in the packet for to let the Commissioners know that code was being enforced. Kebschull stated in that particular case the individual decided to go ahead and put his water and sewer knowing that he cannot hook his motorhome up. The code states for no more than 30 days so basically he could hook it up for 25 days, move it for a few days and come back and he would be within code. Glick noted that this item should have been discussed under 9-a and apologized for the error. a. PZ9?-40 -Landscape/Site Plan Review -Baron Park Subdivision, Fire Addition -Alaska Regional Fire Training Facility, Marathon Road, Kenai, Alaska GOECKE MOVED TO APPROVE PZ9?-40, LANDSCAPE/SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR BARON PARK SUBDIVISION. MOTION WAS SECONDED BY WERNER-QUADE. LaShot stated that the recommendations on the staff report states that staff recommends approval. LaShot stated that he couldn't say that the Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 4 facility is lavishly landscaped however, the thinks for this type facility grass and lawn is probably appropriate. He further stated that all of the areas that will be disturbed outside of the parking, buildings areas, or training areas will be seeded, the area around the building will be maintained as a lawn and then there is a small area around the building sign with some additional grass and minor shrubbery. Goecke stated that in light of what the City Engineer just said about the shrubbery and minor, he didn't think he even comes close to minor. Goecke pointed out that we sat here about a month ago on the dog house and said that they needed to do a little better job of landscaping on that project and he feels absolutely no different about this. He pointed out that there is a total of five trees to be planted by that sign. Goecke stated that since we are asking private entities to upgrade their site when they want to build then City should be setting an example and doing a better job than what we are asking private enterprise to do. Goecke reiterated that all he could see on the plans is a total of five shrubs in one small confined area by the sign and that isn't going to get it. Christian stated that he would support that as well, he thinks that we do need to set an example and with the animal control shelter Parks and Recreation was expected to take care of it. Christian stated it would be a good idea for our City to put in their plans what they intend to do just as we expect private enterprise to do. Councilman Smalley asked LaShot if these were similar to the animal control shelter in that there are a set of plans that went out to contractors and that the landscaping is a separate bid item. LaShot stated that was correct, these plans are out and the bids will be received next week, on August 19 and the landscaping is a different bid item. Smalley asked if this facility would be handled like the City's other facilities. LaShot stated that is true, Parks & Rec can come in at some point and add to this plan. Goecke stated he understands what Smalley had to say but feels this is actually not the same as the animal control shelter plans had no set boundaries or guidelines for shrubbery but this one has the shrubbery in place at the sign. Goecke stated that we're playing here with crab apples and delicious apples but we're still looking at a completely different set of plans. Christian pointed out that what we are voting on is the landscape plan and this is not appropriate in his and Goecke's view. Christian stated that if we are going to approve of a landscape plan we should see what the landscape plan is going to be, then if this is what it is, 3 or 4 bushes, Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 5 then it needs to be addressed more directly instead of saying that ~ sometimes down the road Parks and Recreation can add to it. GOECKE MOVED THAT PARKS AND RECREATION DO SOME MORE LANDSCAPING AROUND THE FACILITY BEFORE THIS THING IS COMPLETELY WRITTEN OFF. Goecke stated that he would vote in favor of this tonight if that is put in. Glick asked if that was a motion. GOECKE MOVED THAT PARKS AND RECREATION BE DIRECTED TO INCREASE THE LANDSCAPING BEING DONE AS FAR SHRUBBERY IS CONCERNED AROUND THAT FACILITY. Glick pointed out that was an amendment to the main motion. NORD SECONDED THE MOTION. Bryson asked if the proposed grass area was not considered landscaping, he pointed out that there was a considerable area that is going to be topsoil and grass. Goecke stated that he wants to see more shrubbery at least, this facility is supposed to be a showplace for the State so he would like to see something more than a grassy yard. Werner-Quade asked if the amendment directs Parks and Rec to take care of the landscaping. Werner-Quade noted that she could not support the amendment as it reads because this Commission does not know if money has been allocated in the budget for landscaping so perhaps the amendment should recommended to Council to confer with Parks and Rec on doing the work. Werner-Quade stated that the other comment she had is in keeping with the animal shelter when Mr. Kornelis was here he explained that generally, maybe not the first season but in a subsequent seasons, those things are provided for and allocated for such items like rose bushes, annual flowers beds, etc. She further stated that in her opinion she can't think of one building or tract of land that the City of Kenai owns that isn't really impeccably groomed and very neat, tidy and quite beautiful to the eye. Werner-Quade stated that while she agrees with Christian that the City should set an example for others and private enterprises she does feel thus far that the City has done a good job of maintaining the grounds of their present buildings. Goecke stated that he thought that as a maker of that motion he thought he did say to ask Council to direct Parks and Rec to make sure there was some more landscaping done on that facility, he didn't say we will direct Parks &Rec. Smalley stated the Werner-Quade was correct, this building (City Hall) is Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 6 a prime example, landscaping was not included in the original site plan but the City came in afterwards and added this and he couldn't think of a single City building that hasn't got impeccable landscaping. Smalley encouraged the Commission to think about maybe dropping the portion of the amendment asking Council to direct this to Parks and Rec as he isn't sure that Parks and Rec is the appropriate place to send it to. Smalley thinks it may be more appropriate to direct him to take it back to Council and have them make sure that the landscaping is above what is adequate and matches other City facilities. Smalley pointed out that the plan does meet the code as it written but he guarantees, as Kornelis has spoken to this body before, when you have a City facility it is going to be well taken care of with regard to landscaping. Christian stated the thing he has a problem with is that in writing up these plans for the bid process that it doesn't have the landscaping we expect from other private sites and he thinks this sends a bad message to the private sites that we are expecting more of them than we are expecting in our initial stages of our business process. Christian stated that if we would put on our bid that we would like a certain number of trees, bushes, etc., then it would go into the cost of the project and it would at least get started then Parks and Recreation could add to it. Christian further stated that he knows that grass covers landscaping but it doesn't cover what was done in the past. Bryson asked staff if the entire lot was being cleared of trees. LaShot stated that no, not the entire lot. Discussion was held on the areas where natural vegetation would remain. Bryson stated that if the areas beyond the parking area are remaining timber then it appears that 30 to 40 percent of the area that is cleared is going to be grass. Nord stated that she will vote in favor of this because it does meet the plan and she will also vote in favor of the amendment because she would also like see more than just grass. Bryson noted that the bids are going to be opened next week so there is no way a landscaping modification could be in before the bid opening. Smalley again stated that he wasn't sure if it was appropriate to recommend that Council direct Parks and Rec to do it, it is a budgetary consideration and as far as this year the budget is set and the only way a budget modification is made is, if in fact you want something you are going to have to pull something out equal to that cost. Goecke asked what was done for the animal control shelter with regard to wording. It was noted that City Council was asked to direct Parks and Rec. LaShot noted that it was to suggest to Council that Parks and Rec Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 7 do further landscaping work and this may be appropriate here to suggest the same thing. GOECKE, WITH SECONDS CONCURRENCE, CHANGED THE WORD DIRECT IN THE AMENDMENT TO "STRONGLY SUGGEST". VOTE (Amendment) Goecke Yes Werner-Quade No Christian Yes Glick Yes MOTION PASSED. VOTE (Main Motion) Brysoa Yes Nord Yes Goecke Yes Glick Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY 8. 9. OLD BUSINESS: None CODE ENFORCEMENT ITEMS: Bryson No Nord Yes Mahurin Absent Werner-Quade Yes Christian Yes Mahurin Absent a. KMC 14.20.245(d)(3) Possible code violation. Kebschull noted that she had nothing else to add to the enforcement code items. 10. REPORTS: a. City Council: Smalley stated that at the last City Council meeting there were three public comments. Mr. Popp and Debbie Harris spoke on behalf of the Sears Elementary PTA program and they expressed thanks to the City for their assistance with the playground. Doug McBride and Dave Nelson came on behalf of Fish and Game with regard to the dip net fishery situation this past summer. It is possible that Council will attempt to get and Agenda change to attempt to get to the Fish Board to see if they will close off a section of the river. At this point in time all of Council is anticipating going up to speak at the Fish Board meeting in February. Smalley stated that it looks as though there may be funding in the future for enforcement during the dip net fishery and the State Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 8 will place refuse boxes. A fee for dip netting will also be considered. This Council was very disappointed with how this fishery was handled this year and the message was clearly sent to the State and they are working with the City to try to bring about some positive changes. Smalley stated that under Public Hearings, items 1 and 2 were removed from the table as it was felt the new ordinance was far more restrictive and a much harsher ordinance than what currently is on the books. Smalley stated there were some permitted uses in some of those zones with regard to development, for instance 4 and 5 plexes, etc., which had been permissible in the past were now completely out by putting in the end and what that meant is it prohibits this body from even considering it and it also prohibits the Council from considering it because it is an ordinance change but if it's a conditional use then this body can review it and still say no or they can review it and put it up for public hearing and if it's something they don't feel is in the best interest it can still be turned down. Smalley stated that there was some discussion from Council that with the new ordinance if it were to go into effect the community will need to be fully appraised of this change. The plan right now is a work session with Council on October 1 to go through a couple of the categories. Smalley showed the group where the categories were on the list that will go to the work session. Bannock stated that was an accurate assessment and that Council was appreciative of the majority of the work that was done. Christian noted that he would much rather see things handled this way than just vote against it and let it go, this way we can work with each other on it. Smalley stated that item H-6, under New Business the hearing has been set for August 20 and 7:00 p.m. Item H-7, Baler Wash Water, discussion continues with the Borough. Item H-8, Discussion, a Goals and Objectives Work Session is scheduled for September 10 at 7:00 p.m. at the Senior Center. Item H-9, Discussion, Advertisements/Brochures, this was moved up to B-3, Public Comment, discussion was held with Marion Nelson regarding additional advertising for the City. Smalley stated that the Council did spend a little bit of money. The Kenai Peninsula Regional Tourism Conference will have an awards banquet and auction which will be held on September 19 and 20 and the City will pay for the welcoming reception, cost $750.00. Item H-10, Bluff Erosion in Old Town, discussion was held and is also tied into the goals and objectives. Smalley stated that Council went into Executive Session to evaluate the Interim City Manager, Council gave a very, very satisfactory during the evaluation process. Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 9 b. Borough Planning: Bryson stated a meeting was held on August 11, he pointed out that the agenda was included in the packets. Bryson stated that the consent agenda was approved. There were no persons speaking from the public. Public Hearings, item F-2 was requested to be postponed by the petitioner; F-3-b vacation was approved adjacent to lots 3 and 4 only of that subdivision. All other public hearing items were approved. Under Special Considerations the first two items were approved, the third was denied because it did not conform to State requirements for granting platting waivers. c. Administration: LaShot stated that the fire training bid opens next week, originally it was scheduled to open tomorrow but a batch of plans were lost in the UPS strike so the bid period was extended. It is expected that Council to either take up the issue of contract awards at the regular meeting or possibly a special meeting around August 25. Kebschull wanted to draw attention to the memo regarding the zoning maps and requested that members made the noted corrections. 11. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED: None 12. INFORMATION ITEMS: a. Zoning Map Memo b. Planning and Zoning Commission Roster c. KPB Plat Committee Action of 7/28/97 d. Notice to Proposed Utility Easement Vacation Glick thanked staff for the Planning and Zoning Commissioner roster. 13. COMMISSION COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS: Bryson - no comment Werner-Quade stated that she appreciated the bare-bones landscaping at the fire training center as to her, as a City tax payer, it shows fiscal responsibility and she feels certain that seasonal additions to the grounds and permanent landscaping will be seen. Christian stated that it seems awkward that this Commission gets these site plans when it's too late to do anything except approve them according to the bidding process, maybe if they can be seen before they go to bid then we would know whether or not we would approve of the landscape plans. Christian also stated that when mentioning this person that was trying to set up this home that is connected to City water and sewer for more than a month, he noticed that someone had moved in a motor home on Forest Drive, between 3rd & 4"', Planning and Zoning Commission August 13, 1997 Page 10 at the beginning of the summer and it looks like they have a temporary set up for a home, there are some wires strung over the trees. Nord - no comment Goecke - no comment 14. ADJOURNMENT: GOECKE MOVED TO ADJOURN. MEETING WAS ADJOURNED AT 8:00 P.M.
