Mr. Chapman pointed out the following zones on the local zoning zap to be
adopted under the Comprehensive Plan
1. Rural Open Land. This is lard i4hich is not likely to develop by the year
2000.
2. Public Lands and Institutions.
3. R-2. R-1 zoning has been eliminated.
4. R-3. Part of the Ieite Addition has been suggested for R-3 zoning.bv the
planners; hor, ever_,.;the newly sold area on Spruce Cape and the present
R-3 areas in Baranof Heights were not included as R 3 zones. ls. Best
stated that this might present a problem, since this land has been sold
as R-3 property. This will be checked out with the attorney. The
possibility of zoning the Island Bay Subdivision as Public H.as discussed,
since the Borough offered this area for the riarine Institute.
5. Neighborhood Commercial. Part of the Island Bay Subdivision is recanmended
for this zoning.
6. B-2 (Central Business). The question of rezoning areas inside the Urban
Renewal project was raised. Ps. Chapman will discuss this with the A.S.H.A.
authorities in Anchorage. DY. Chapman suggested that the Central Business
r zoning be used only in the present downtown shopping area. He explained
that the Neighborhood Cam ercial areas are only to locate stores
conveniently for new outlying population centers, an$ not to provide
cheaper land for development outside the Urban Renewal area.
7. General Industrial (Light Industrial). The present da•mtaom airport has
been remanded for this zoning. The planners feel that an effort should
be made to obtain use of the Navy airfield for future airport facilities.
If the old airport area is not large enough to provide sufficient light
industrial zoning, there is an area at Bells Flats which could be so
designated. KIBS272594
8. Water Oriented Industrial. This is the proposed zoning for cannery raw,
Gibson Cove, and a portion of Near Island.
T9r. Chapman then reviewed the following zones to be included on the man of

Trailer Court plans and explained that the follomring changes had been made:
1. A nee sewer line is being constructed which was not previously sham on__:__
the plans since they were as-builts, as requested by the Assembly. The
line is being constructed in order to connect neighbors of the court in
order to solve the raw sewage problem. The line -rill not be used in

, btioi was seconded by Mrs. L ongmire .
Mr. Best stated that construction of the semar line will also need the annroval
of the Sanitarian and the Public Service Camsdssion, since if individuals are
served by the line who are not in the trailer court, it will be subject to the
rules and regulations of the Public Service Commission and a Public utilities
permit must be obtained in order to serve these other individuals. Mr. Best'
stated that it should be made clear that approval of the plans is not approval
for actual construction of the lines. t1r. Best asked 11r. Jackson if he was
planning to expand the court TV.to this new area, and 11r. Jackson replied it
would not be until next year. Mr. Jackson stated that he has furnished water
