V APPEARANCE REQUESTS AND AUDIENCE COMMENTS
There were no Appearance Requests nor Audience Comments.
VI PUBLIC HEARINGS
A) CASE 84-134. Request for a twenty-five year lease of 11.2 acres
of Borough property legally described as a portion of Lot 1, U.S.
Survey 2539, known as Nixon's Ranch in accordance with Section
18.40.020(B) of the Borough Code. (Northern Lights Riding for
the Handicapped)
LINDA FREED indicated additional handouts related to this case:
a letter from Jack Cripe of the Kodiak Rodeo Association, a
letter from Jim Cobis, and a copy of a proposed resolution.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
JANE NUTTALL, a spokesperson for the Association of Retarded
Citizens of Kodiak (ARCK), stated that ARCK supports the concept
of a horseback riding program for the handicapped and the use of
Borough land for that purpose, but requested the Planning and
Zoning Commission be cautious in granting this lease due to the
difficulties that Northern Lights Riding for the Handicapped has
encountered in organizing and providing a regular program
schedule. ARCK recommended this lease be granted for a period of
one year and that a careful evaluation be done after that period
to determine renewal.
MARY MATHES, Chairperson of the Women's Bay Community Council
(WBCC), indicated that WBCC feels that the request would be an
appropriate use of this property and that WBCC voted to voice
non -objection to
KIBS225617
the lease but that any lease granted should require strict
accountability and be subject to review on a regular basis. The
resolution presented seems to cover WBCC's concerns.
RANDY COVEY, Program Coordinator for Northern Lights Riding for
the Handicapped (NLRH), indicated the only problem NLRH would
have with the resolution presented would be the one year term and
asked that the term be changed to five years with numbers 2, 3,
4, 5 and 6 of the proposed resolution remaining unaltered. Mr.
Covey indicated that NLRH met on January 15, 1985, elected
officers for the Board of Directors, and is actively pursuing its
tax-exempt status from the IRS.
COMMISSIONER HILL asked Mr. Covey if any of the Board of
Directors were present this evening. Mr. Covey replied that Joe
Brodman is present. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT questioned Mr. Covey
concerning the necessity of having a five year term of lease to
secure state funding. Mr. Covey explained that permanent
structures would be required and that NLRH would need a place to
board the horses.
DAN MACIAK indicated that in his opinion NLRH has no program and
that NLRH has had more than sufficient time to establish a
program and is opposed to any lease to NLRH.
RANDY COVEY indicated that there was a program and children did
ride during the past year.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER HILL indicated that he would not be opposed to the
one year term of lease because of the needs of the handicapped
community.
COMMISSIONER KNIGHT as a father of a handicapped child would like
to see programs available to handicapped children and thinks the
resolution as drafted provides the opportunity to test the
sincerity and the ability of NLRH to develop a program that
provides these services.
COMMISSIONER JAMES MOVED TO APPROVE the resolution as presented
by the Community Development Department recommending the Assembly
enter into an agreement to lease a portion of Lot 1, U.S. Survey
2539. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by unanimous roll call
vote.
B) CASE 84-135. Request for a variance from Section 17.33.060
(Building Height Limit), a conditional use permit in accordance
with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) and a request for a
lease of Borough land in accordance with Section 18.040.020(A) to
permit a 150 foot high radio transmitter in the PL-Public Use
Lands District. A portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital
Subdivision. Located on Borough property between East Elementary
School and the Kodiak Island Hospital.
LINDA FREED indicated additional information: information
provided to the Assembly by the Borough Manager from Flirite and
information from the Borough Assessor, also public hearing
notices from the Kodiak Baptist Mission, Asa Beehler, and the
Kodiak Island Hospital's Administrator James Gingerich.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
BILL GLYNN reiterated his intent to establish a site inside the
City limits suitable for local FM radio use (and possible TV use
in the future) meeting all the FCC criteria for such a site as
discussed at the work session.
COMMISSIONER HILL asked if Mr. Glynn had seen a copy of the
proposed resolution. Mr. Glynn indicated that he had no problems
with the resolution as written and stated that the hospital's
objections were groundless considering the amount of VHF
equipment within the building. COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked how
P & Z Regular Meeting -2- KIBS225618 January 16, 1984
far away the hospital is from the site. Mr. Glynn indicated
several hundred feet and well below the horizontal plane of the
transmitting antenna that he is intending to put on the tower.
COMMISSIONER GREGG asked if the FCC license is contingent on the
lease. Mr. Glynn indicated that it was not but that he needed a
site for an application for a construction permit. COMMISSIONER
GREGG indicated that the hospital would have a master plan drawn
up by July or August of 1985 that would outline the hospital's
use of the property through the end of the century and if Mr.
Glynn's plans could proceed with an alternative site. Mr. Glynn
indicated that his alternative would be a very poor second and
prefers to use this particular site.
COMMISSIONER KNIGHT asked if at the end of the five-year lease
the tower might be disassembled. Mr. Glynn indicated that he
hoped not but that there was that possibility. COMMISSIONER
KNIGHT asked if Mr. Glynn would go ahead with the investment for
the tower with that condition. Mr. Glynn indicated he would.
COMMISSIONER KNIGHT asked if the hospital's master plan would be
completed by July. LINDA FREED indicated that was the hospital's
intent as stated in their letter. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT indicated
that even with the master plan he doubted a helicopter pad would
be constructed in three years and asked if the hospital had a
timeframe or a definite goal. LINDA FREED indicated that in
terms of what the Hospital Advisory Board has provided, "no," but
that at a meeting in two weeks time the Borough Assembly will be
talking with the City of Kodiak about a site for a helicopter
pad that is not on the hospital property. Whether the Hospital
Advisory Board is involved in those discussions, Ms. Freed did
not know; it may be that two different agencies are looking at
two different sites.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER HILL indicated that he saw no interference between
the proposed helicopter pad and the radio antenna.
COMMISSIONER PATTERSON concurred with Mr. Hill and felt that if
the hospital needed the land at the end of the five year period
the lease could be either reviewed or renegotiated at that time.
COMMISSIONER GREGG stated that he tended to agree and that five
years was a reasonable period of time.
COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked staff if this lease had been turned
down by the Borough Assembly. LINDA FREED indicated that a
letter of request went to the Borough Assembly, it was approved
at one meeting and it was rejected at the next. In the interim
staff had indicated to Mr. Glynn that there were some Planning
and Zoning approvals that he would need to get prior to the
Assembly's accepting the lease. Mr. Glynn chose to continue with
the Planning and Zoning Commission process. COMMISSIONER RENNELL
asked what will happen if this is passed. LINDA FREED indicated
that this will be forwarded to the Borough Assembly with the
Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation attached.
COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked if the Borough Assembly would then
decide to reconsider or reject the resolution. LINDA FREED
indicated that the Borough Assembly would then have a Planning
and Zoning Commission recommendation in addition to the request
letter from Mr. Glynn and the other information provided by the
Borough Manager at the Assembly's request.
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO APPROVE A VARIANCE from Section
17.33.060 (Building Height Limit), a conditional use permit in
accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) and a
request for a lease of Borough land in accordance with Section
18.040.020(A) to permit a 150 foot high radio transmitter in the
PL-Public Use Lands District. The motion was seconded and
CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote.
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO APPROVE A RESOLUTION recommending the
Borough Assembly lease a portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital
Subdivision as proposed by staff. The motion was seconded.
YJBS225619
P & Z Regular Meeting -3- January 16, 1984
Discussion followed concerning the term of the lease.
P�
COMMISSIONER PATTERSON MOVED TO AMEND THE MOTION RESOLUTION to
include a statement that if the lease is not executed within one
year it shall be reviewed again by the Planning and Zoning
Commission prior to execution. The motion was seconded and
CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote.
COMMISSIONER GREGG called for a roll call vote on the main motion
as amended. The motion CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote.
FINDINGS OF FACT were delineated as follows:
1. The Commission does not feel that this use will interfere
with the long-range planning of the hospital;
2. The term of the lease is for a five-year period but that a
commitment of six years would not interfere with the
hospital's long range planning. The lease is subject to
review at the end of the five-year period; and
3. There was no objection voiced by the aviation community.
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO ADOPT THE FINDING OF FACTS. The
motion was seconded and CARRIED by unanimous voice vote.
C) CASE 84-136. Request for a variance from Section
17.19.040(A)(Front Yards) to permit the construction of a
single-family home that encroaches 19 feet into the required 25
foot front yard setback. Lot 16, Block 19, Kodiak Townsite
Alaska Subdivision.
LINDA FREED indicated additional information: a public hearing
notice from Ruth Hansen; and a correction with a site plan from
the staff (the encroachment is only 6 feet, but due to a
mathematical error on the site plan, the variance ought to be
.-- granted for 7 feet).
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
KATHRYN KINNEAR indicated she did not necessarily object to the
variance for the front setback requirement but that she did
object to the approach taken in this matter concerning the road.
Ms. Kinnear also expressed concern about the density of this area
and development of this portion of the hill.
COMMISSIONER GREGG suggested Ms. Kinnear talk to the City of
Kodiak and Mr. Thompson concerning the road.
MIKE ARNDT, general contractor for Mr. Thompson, indicated that
the road project was not completed at this time but that all
measures were taken to work with the people affected in the
neighborhood and that in putting the road through the area all
equipment, etc., remained within the boundaries of the easement
granted by the City of Kodiak.
JIM RIPPEY, general contractor for Mr. Thompson, indicated that
Mr. Thompson wants room for one car to get to his lot and a
turn -around area. The excavation done has been taken down to
bedrock and there ought to be no sloughage.
r Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER PATTERSON asked what variance was granted to the
Kinnears on their setback. Mr. Rippey indicated it was 17 feet
in 1978. COMMISSIONER PATTERSON indicated that he had been to
the site after the recent heavy rains and that he did not notice
any sloughage problems and that the 7 foot setback seemed
reasonable for the area.
COMMISSIONER RENNELL agreed with Mr. Patterson.
KIBS225620
P & Z Regular Meeting -4- January 16, 1984
e
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO GRANT A VARIANCE from Section
17.19.040(A)(Front Yards) to permit the construction of a
single-family home that encroaches 7 feet into the required 25
foot front yard setback. Lot 16, Block 19, Kodiak Townsite
Alaska Subdivision, 311 Hillcrest. The motion was seconded and
CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote.
D) CASE 84-137. Request for a variance from Section
17.19.030(A)(Area Requirements) to permit the shifting of a lot
line that will cause the area of a lot to fall 306 square feet
below the 7200 square foot requirement. Lot 3, Block 2,
Elderberry Heights Subdivision lst Addition, 514 Mozart Circle.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
CRAIG JOHNSON, one of the property owners, expressed his desire
to shift the property line because he would gain usable property
space even though he would be losing square footage.
COMMISSIONER GREGG asked where Mr. Cannon's driveway would be in
relation to this new property line. Mr. Johnson indicated it
would be as far over to the right as possible as one looks up the
cul-de-sac. Mr. Johnson indicated he and Mr. Cannon have been
operating under a "gentlemen's agreement" and that now they would
like the agreement formalized.
PAT CANNON, one of the property owners, expressed his desire to
shift the property line so that he will have a parking area and
Mr. Johnson will have more usable space.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSION JAMES expressed his belief that the proposed lot line
would be more radial to the cul-de-sac than the original lot line
plus it would be more to the contours of the land.
COMMISSIONER RENNELL MOVED TO APPROVE A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE
from Section 17.19.030(A)(Area Requirements) to permit the
shifting of a lot line that will cause the area of a lot to fall
306 square feet below the 7200 square foot requirement. Lot 3,
Block 2, Elderberry Heights Subdivision lst Addition, 514 Mozart
Circle. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by unanimous roll
call vote.
COMMISSION GREGG called for a ten-minute break. The meeting
recessed at 8:50 p.m. and reconvened at 9:00 p.m.
E) CASE 84-138. Request for a variance from Section 17.36.040(A)
(Non -Conforming Structures) and Section 17.19.040(B) (Side Yards)
to permit a 24 x 48 foot two-story addition onto the rear of a
non -conforming structure that encroaches 1.4 feet into the 6.8
foot side yard setback. Lot 7, Block 7, Aleutian Homes
Subdivision, 413 Cedar Street.
LINDA FREED indicated additional information: a second letter
from David Shrader and a revised motion from staff. Also, Toby
Cook on behalf of Mr. Wayne Sewell has requested that this
application be withdrawn. Staff did talk to Mr. Sewell and this
withdrawal was confirmed.
r COMMISSIONER PATTERSON requested to be excused for a possible
conflict of interest. COMMISSIONER GREGG excused Mr. Patterson.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened: KIBS225621
BARB MONKIEWICZ, representing Dave Shrader, expressed Mr.
Shrader's interest in having both letters read into the public
record and reiterated that Mr. Shrader invested in excess of
$10,000 in improvements onto his house to reorient his house to
take advantage of the view at the rear of his property. Mr.
Shrader feels that two of the conditions listed in staff's memo
of January 8, 1985 have not been met, but since the request has
P & Z Regular Meeting -5- January 16, 1984
been withdrawn, suffice it to say that Mr. Shrader is vehemently
opposed to the granting of this variance.
r.—
r-
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER HILL asked staff if a public hearing notice was
received from the neighbor to the west. BUD CASSIDY answered
that no answer was received. LINDA FREED indicated that Mr.
Shrader felt that Cubbedges would be sending in their public
hearing notice but that staff had not received anything either
verbally or in writing at this time.
COMMISSIONER GREGG indicated that since the case had been
withdrawn, no action need be taken.
F) CASE 84-139. Request for a variance from Section 17.57.030
(Off -Street Parking -Location) to permit restaurant parking on an
adjacent lot that is zoned Conservation. Legally described as a
portion of U.S. Survey 1396 and generally located behind Lot 12,
Block 1, Allman Subdivision, 1233 Mill Bay Road.
LINDA FREED indicated three items of additional information: a
copy of the easement granted to Mr. Henley by Mr. Len Grothe; a
copy of a public hearing notice from Mr. Grothe; and a memo from
staff clarifying one of the recommended conditions.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
DAVID HENLEY indicated he had nothing to add to his application
but was available to answer questions.
COMMISSIONER JAMES asked if Mr. Henley had read the three con-
ditions from staff and if there was any problem with number 2
that the business acquire additional legal and practical access.
Mr. Henley indicated he thought the meaning to be to utilize the
space alongside the building for access to the property in
question, relocating space currently utilized for parking by
occupants of the downstairs apartment.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER HILL commented on staff's recommendation concerning
the right turn only sign at the exit on to Mill Bay Road. Mr.
Hill indicated he felt there was no problem in making a right or
left turn from this property. BUD CASSIDY indicated that the
traffic that exists on Mill Bay Road especially during lunchtime
causes undue delay, and as businesses grow in this area it
becomes a long range planning concern. COMMISSIONER HILL felt
there was no justification for this requirement. COMMISSIONER
RENNELL disagreed.
COMMISSIONER KNIGHT MOVED TO GRANT A VARIANCE from Section
17.57.030 (Off -Street Parking -Location) to permit restaurant
parking on an adjacent lot that is zoned Conservation. Legally
described as a portion of U.S. Survey 1396 and generally located
behind Lot 12, Block 1, Allman Subdivision, 1233 Mill Bay Road,
with the conditions listed in the staff memos of January 8 and
16, 1985. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by majority roll
call vote. COMMISSIONER HILL dissented as he felt the right
turn only sign ought not be required.
G) CASE 84-140. Request for a variance from Section 17.36.070(C)
(Repairs and Maintenance) to permit a larger kitchen addition (10
x 28) than was recently approved by the Commission (10 x 25) to a
non -conforming structure.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
There was no public testimony.
Public Hearing Closed.
KIBS225622
P & Z Regular Meeting
January 16, 1984
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER PATTERSON MOVED TO APPROVE A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE
FROM Section 17.36.070(C) (Repairs and Maintenance) to permit a
larger kitchen addition (10 x 28) than was recently approved by
the Commission (10 x 25) to a non -conforming structure. Lot 35,
Block 5, Aleutian Homes Subdivision. The motion was seconded and
CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote.
H) CASE S-84-054. Preliminary Subdivision of Lot 10, U.S. Survey
3100; to Lots 10A, 10B, 10C, 10D, and 10E, U.S. Survey 3100.
DAVID CROWE indicated that 28 public hearing notices were mailed,
two were returned (both in favor).
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
LOU SCHNEIDER received a copy of the staff memo at the work
session and indicated he had no problem with any of the
recommendations with the exception of number 4. In regards to
the road construction and utilities, the particular road
right-of-way when the property was bought was already in the
capital improvements of the Kodiak Island Borough and is listed
as priority project number 2. Mr. Schneider does not believe he
would be building on the lots on Carroll Way until the Borough
constructs the road. He would like the final plat to show that
there would be no building on these three lots until the Borough
constructs the road.
COMMISSIONER GREGG asked if it would be possible to simply
subdivide the front lots and to leave the back three lots
unsubdivided. LOU SCHNEIDER indicated he would prefer finalizing
the total subdivision at this time.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened:
COMMISSIONER HILL inquired about the note on the plat. DAVID
CROWE explained that the Borough Assembly has done this in the
past in order to expedite Borough subdivisions, some lots are on
undeveloped roads. One recent case in point is the Chiniak
Subdivision plat which was approved last summer.
COMMISSIONER JAMES MOVED TO GRANT PRELIMINARY APPROVAL of the
subdivision subject to the conditions of the memorandum of Mr.
Crowe dated January 7, 1985, substituting for number four read
that a note will be placed on the plat that states that Lots 10C
through 10E cannot be sold until roadway improvements to Carroll
Way are completed. The motion was seconded and CARRIED unanimous
roll call vote.
I) CASE S-84-055. Preliminary Subdivision of Lot 11, U.S. Survey
3103; to Lots 11A and 11B, U.S. Survey 3103.
DAVID CROWE indicated fifty public hearing notices were sent out
and none were returned.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
OWNER OF LOT 10, U.S. SURVEY 3103 (listed as Robert W. West),
rindicated that the existing road goes through the middle of his
lot. He expressed concern about the traffic going through his
lot to get to these other lots. He asked for the size of the
subdivided lots.
COMMISSIONER GREGG responded that the size of the lots depends on
whether or not dedicated right-of-way or a simply an access
easement is required. Essentially the size of the lots will be
approximately 19,000 square feet.
OWNER OF LOT 10 inquired about the zoning of the area.
KIBS225623
P & Z Regular Meeting -7- January 16, 1984
COMMISSIONER GREGG responded that a change has occurred which
allows RR-1 lots to be subdivided to 20,000 square feet if they
have both water and sewer. This change occurred last summer or
fall. Commissioner Gregg suggested that the owner contact David
Crowe for additional information concerning subdivision of his
own lot.
LOU SCHNEIDER, owner of an adjacent lot, has no problem with the
subdivision but expressed concern about the road right-of-way as
there are dedicated right-of-ways in the area that were part of
an original subdivision in approximately 1957. Mr. Schneider's
lot is one of the original subdivision lots and he owns another
r- lot on the other side of the platted right of way. He would like
any further subdivision to take into consideration the shape and
contours of the road so that off -setting right-of-ways are not
encountered.
COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked if Mr. Schneider would prefer a
dedicated road right-of-way versus an easement.
LOU SCHNEIDER responded that if there is to be a road there must
be some kind of right-of-way through there. Legally it is not
possible for anyone to plow that road because they would have to
cross private property. There ought to be dedicated
right-of-ways through the area which would mean 30 feet off of
the adjoining properties.
ROBIN HEINRICHS expressed his belief that the proposed
subdivision meets the criteria of the comprehensive plan and is a
logical extension of the new provisions of the RR-1 zone.
Responding to the memo of David Crowe concerning the 60 foot
right-of-way, Mr. Heinrichs concurred that something needs to be
done about legal access to the lots. Mr. Heinrichs feels that a
60 foot right-of-way would adversely affect the neighborhood and
that an easement would better serve the area. Mr. Heinrichs
stated the 25 foot easement was proposed as the area is
geographically a cul-de-sac and there can be no through traffic
r-- on the peninsula. He asked if a right-of-way would require a
clear-cut.
DAVID CROWE responded that in this case to get normal drainage
ditches and the roadway in would require 60 feet and
clear -cutting.
SCOTT ARNDT reiterated a decision by the Service District which
was basically non -objection to either the easement or the
right-of-way. Personnally he expressed the belief that the
majority of the lots on the peninsula are not subdividable due to
the terrain and the location of the homes on the lot. The most
feasible way to get a road right-of-way would be through an
easement.
COMMISSIONER KNIGHT inquired if Mr. Arndt is the Chairman of the
Service District. MR. ARNDT responded affirmatively, indicating
he is chairman for the road, sewer and water district. COMMIS-
SIONER KNIGHT inquired if the Service District was servicing this
particular road. MR. ARNDT indicated it was serviced "just up
past Lou Schneider's on a regular basis." COMMISSIONER KNIGHT
inquired what was needed to get service beyond that point. MR.
ARNDT indicated an easement was necessary in order to get money
from the State to service the area and an easement would qualify
r for those funds. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT expressed the need for
service in this area.
JIMMY NG reiterated the difference between the right-of-way and
the easement and expressed his doubts that the legal requirements
such as grade and width requirements for a right-of-way could be
physically met in the area without extensive work. An easement
for water and sewer was worked out in the neighborhood during the
past year. Also as the peninsula is a geographic cul-de-sac, he
expressed a desire to look at the 50 foot easement rather than
the 60 foot.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened: KIBS225624
P & Z Regular Meeting -8- January 16, 1984
COMMISSIONER PATTERSON indicated that cul-de-sac definition also
included the number of residents in the area to determine the
traffic loads. Stating that he had walked the area, he felt an
easement would be more suitable for the area.
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO GRANT A FINAL SUBDIVISION of Lot 11,
U.S. Survey 3103 to Lots 11A and 11B, U.S. Survey 3103 per the
memo of January 9, 1985, and item number 2 being that an access
and utility easement be required of 30 feet. The motion was
seconded and CARRIED by majority roll call vote. Commissioners
Rennell and Patterson dissented.
r- VII OLD BUSINESS
r-
A) CASE 84-128. Findings of Fact for the denial of a request for an
exception from Section 17.17.020 (Permitted Uses) to permit the

ment; generally located across from Bayside Fire Station and
adjacent to an existing gravel pit. Lot 3, Block 3, Miller Point
Alaska Subdivision
COMMISSIONER GREGG indicated there were five findings of fact
outlined in the memo from staff.

outlined in the memorandum from the Community Development Depart-
ment dated January 9, 1985. The motion was seconded and CARRIED
by majority roll call vote. Commissioner Patterson abstained.
B) CASE S-84-051. Final Subdivision of Lot 2, Block 1, Bells Flats
Alaska Subdivision to Lots 2A, 2B, and 2C, Block 1, Bells Flats
Alaska Subdivision.
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO GRANT FINAL SUBDIVISION of Lot 2,
Block 1, Bells Flats Alaska Subdivision to Lots 2A, 2B, and 2C,
Block 1, Bells Flats Alaska Subdivision per the memo of January
9, 1985 by the Borough Engineer. The motion was seconded and
CARRIED unanimous roll call vote.
C) CASE S-84-056. Final Subdivision of Tract D-1, U.S. Survey 1682
to Woodland Acres Subdivision, 5th Addition: Lots 3-9, Block 7;
Lots 1-15, Block 8; Lots 1-6, Block 9; Lots 7-12, Block 10; and
Teal Way and the extension of Gull Drive.
COMMISSIONER HILL was excused due to a possible conflict of
interest.
COMMISSIONER JAMES indicated that number one needed more
clarification, suggesting "place covenant on the plat restricting
access to Lots 12-15, Block 8 to Teal Way."
LINDA FREED inquired if Lots 1 and 2, Block 9 ought to have the
same restriction.
COMMISSIONER JAMES MOVED TO GRANT FINAL APPROVAL to this
subdivision subject to the conditions in the memorandum from the
Borough Engineer dated January 9, 1985, with the following
changes made to condition number one: place a covenant on the
plat restricting access to Lots 12-15, Block 8 and Lots 1 and 2,
Block 9 to Teal Way. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by
unanimous roll call vote.
VIII NEW BUSINESS
There was no New Business.
IX COMMUNICATIONS
LINDA FREED indicated three communications: (A) a letter of appeal
from Alagnak Associates; (B) a letter from Jean E. Alwert; and (C) a
memorandum from Staff requesting interpretation.
A) Letter of Appeal - Alagnak Associates.
KIBS225625
P & Z Regular Meeting -9- January 16, 1984
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO ACKNOTTT.EDGED RECEIPT of this letter.
The motion was seconded any+. CARRIED by unanimous voice vote.
B) Letter from Jean E. Alwert, Buccaneer Enterprises.
COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO ACKNOWLEDGE RECEIPT of this letter.
The motion was seconded and CARRIED by unanimous voice vote.
C) Memorandum from Community Development Departmen: staff requesting
interpretation of "permitted uses" (17.24.010) in the Industrial
District.
LINDA FREED indicated that currently the Industrial District
states that "all uses permitted in a B-Business Zone are allowed
except those that are residential are permitted in the Industrial
District." There is no specific definition of "residential" in
Title 17 and therefore we request clarification from the
Commission.
A discussion ensued amongst the Commissioners.
