Mr. Ball moved to grant an exception from Section 17.51.020 to permit the con-
struction of an accessory building before the construction of a main building on
lot 3 block 1 Kadiak Alaska Subdivision First Addition. Seconded by Mr. Hill.
Motion FAILED by unanimous roll call vote.
Reasons for denial:
1. Crab pot storage and accessory building in R-3 zoned land is not in harmony
with the elements and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
r-- 2. It would be detrimental to the value of the surrounding property owners land.
3. Chapter 17.36.010 states "nor shall anything be done that would influence the
logevity of prepetuation of such non -conforming use... furthermore, that no non-
conforming use occupying any land shall be enlarged or extended into any other
portion of such land.
4. PUBLIC HEARING ON CASE LL -81-002. A request for lease of Borough owned land on
Section 2, portion of KIB 12, material site along Russian Creek Alaska Subdivision
(Gary A. Johnson).
STAFF REPORT: Mr. Walton presented the staff report and addendum as prepared by V
Community Development Department. 17 notices were sent. 1 was returned in favor
and 2 were against the lease. Also received a petition against the lease.
Mr. Hill we should take all of these lease requests at once.
Mrs. Crowe the only problem would be with #6 as it is set aside for State Gravel
extraction for the Alaska Highway Department.
Mr. Hill let's do #4 and #5 together and take #6 separately.
Mr. Ball what's the deal with the Blair's house?
Mr. Walton the house is apparently in a long standing easement request to extend
Gara Drive for Mr. King to be able to obtain access to his land in the future..
The Assembly did grant the request for an easement. We are having trouble deter-
mining exactly where it goes in relation to what is on the property. It looks lik
the house the Blair's occupy is either in the middle of the road or in the road
right-of-way. Blair's house may have to be moved.
Mrs. Crowe the land is Borough land correct?
Mr. Walton yes.
Mrs. Crowe are steps being taken to move the house?
Mr. Walton yes.
Mr. Ball if we recommend sale, what happens to the easement?
Mr. Walton it would have to be recognized on the plat.
Discussion on the easement for Mr. King.
Mrs. Crowe closed the regular meeting and opened the public hearing.
Mr. Walton pointed out the three lease areas being considered on the map for the
r- audience.
John Bealy Woman's Bay Community. Would like to show greenbelt area of the propose
plan. Opposed to any leasing until the plan is adopted.
Cy Hoen same feelings as Mr. Bealy. Fish and Game is interested in doing some
fisheries out there. Against leasing.
Mrs. Crowe explained that lot 1, block 5, was taken off the public sale with the
intention that it might be used for public land in the Bells Flats area.
Bill Williams Chairman of Woman's Bay Community. Opposed. Would rather see it sold
than leased.
Ricki Bayne opposed. KIBS225250

Ken Sikora opposed to leases for the simple reason that the Borough has stated that
they are unable to maintain leases. Borough does not have the policing powers to
keep everything cleaned up.
Mrs. Crowe closed the public hearing and reopened the regular meeting.
Mr. Ball Mr. Johnson requested sale but the Planning and Zoning Commission initiate
the lease. What is the topography of Johnson's land?
Mr. Walton ski slope.
Discussion on Mr. King's easement.
Mr. Briggs do we have title to this land to sell it?
Mrs. Crowe yes, we recommend to the Assembly.
Mr. Ball moved to recommend to the Borough Assemblv that thev disoose of land on
value exceeds the negotiable limits it would have to ao to Dublic auction. Second -

R20W, in KIB 12. Rickie Walker
STAFF REPORT: Mr. Walton presented the staff report based on a memorandum preparec
by the Community Development Department which recommended denial of the request.
Mrs. Crowe closed the regular meeting and opened the public hearing.
Dan Bayne should not be lease ever as it is right on the land, no sewer facilities,
no access. Against the request.
Barbara Mcaheiveir opposed. When the river is high it could flood, sewer problem.
Janet Atwood opposed.
Ricki Bayne why no rules for floodplain?
Mr. Walton a few years ago alot of work was done on floodplains within the City
and Borough which were then designated on official maps and the next step was to
have the maps adopted by the Borough Assembly and have appropriate regulations
adopted.
Ricki Bayne I think it should be finished by the Assembly.
Mrs. Crowe it wouldn't be out of line for the Woman's Bay Community to send a
letter to the Borough Assembly and ask them to bring it up for reconsideration or
to consider appropriate legislation to cover this type of situation.
Discussion between Mrs. Crowe and Mr. Bayne in the audience.
Mrs. Crowe closed the public hearing and reopened the regular meeting.
