34 Business to B-Business.
35

37 Commission are hereby confirmed as follows:
38
39 17.205.020 A. Findings as the Need and Justification for a Change or
40 Amendment.
41 The applicant in this case has identified an underserved constituency with
42 demands for goods and services not explicitly permitted in the RB-Retail Business
43 Zoning District. The efficient delivery of such goods and services is best enhanced

44 by a location in the closest proximity available to the point of consumption, which is
45 the harbor.
46
47 17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment
48 would have on the Objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
49 This request for rezone is consistent with the 1987 Near Island Comprehensive
50 Development Plan. This request for rezone is consistent with the 2008 Kodiak
51 Island Borough Comprehensive Plan Update. Rezoning the subject parcel to the B
52 — Business Zoning District will work towards achieving goals and objectives
53 identified in the 2008 Plan. Rezoning the subject parcel to the B — Business Zoning
54 District would represent the adjustment of an existing district's boundary only, not
55 the introduction of a new zoning district.
56
57 17.205.020 C. Recommendations as to the approval or disapproval of
58 the change or amendment.
59 This recommendation supports the change to an existing land use district
60 boundary only. The Kodiak Island Borough Planning & Zoning Commission
61 recommends that the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly approve this rezone
62 request.
