the State is going to sell. Attorney Madsen was requested to prepare Resolution
for this for the next Assembly meeting.
Attorney Madsen spoke on the Ben Bolden case. This had been appealed to the
Supreme court. A discussion was held.
Chairman Powell at this time stated he had discussed joint venturing with City
on the building inspector and sanitation officer. He stated that the City's
present building inspector would have little or no time to devote to our work
should we joint venture with City on this. Chairman Powell suggested that the
Borough should retain their own building inspector on some mutually agreed
basis. He also discussed the amount of violations of the zoning ordinance that
are occurring every day. Chairman Powell suggested the Assembly give this some
thought and maybe come to some agreement at the next Assembly m6eting. It was
suggested possibly to combine the building inspector and sanitarian.

The Kodiak Island Borough
Subject:
Exception in lot size for Joseph E Carbin
Gentlemen;
At the regular meeting of the Kodiak Planning and Zoning Commission of Aug 4 1965,
the Planning. and Zoning Commission rejected an application for a building permit fey
a apartment house to be built on Lot 15C block 16 of the Kodaik Townsite for the
following reasons; -
1- not enough parking area
2- not enough.lot area for the number_of units•intended
3-no`access
4- Urban Renewal, MAY want to put a road across that lot
I would like tohaveyou review this request with th§ following reasons;
1- the lot itself is 59 ft by 152 ft, the building proposed is 32 X 72
leaving side yards of 10 ft and17 ft, enabling one to drive around
the building to a rear yard of 25 ft by 59 ft, capable of parking
4• cars and to a front yard. of 55 ft by 59 ft, capable of parking
10 cars, which is more than -ample, since the requirementis for
total of•8 cars
2- the lot is not in accthrdance with the required 1600 sq ft per unit
as stated in the Zoning ordinance, but since these units are 1 bed
room units, intended for the use of only 2 people to the unit, the
requirement seems excessive. The .lot has over 1000 sq ft per unit,
and any further;groung area'would not mean much to this particular
building at any rate.
3- there is access to.this ,lot by private agreement withproperty
ownerssurrounding this lot, and•' can use this private access until
public access is made available,
4- I fail to see why I ` must sit and wait for something that Urban
Renewal may want to do sometime in the future. In fact, I was
told by Urban Renewal in Anchorage that " Urban Renewal has no
jurisdiction over and no interest in this lot, since it is outside
our boundaries"
Thank you for your consideration,
By Zelda Kessler, his attorney in fact

Planning & Zoning Commission
c/o Kodiak Island Borough
P.O. Box 1246
Kodiak, Alaska
Gentlemen:
Mr. Joseph E. Carbin has made application for a building permit in
part of Lot 15, Block 16, Kodiak Townsite. A review of the ap-
plication disclosed the following variance with Ordinance No. 64-5:
1. Side yard does not meet requirements of Section 45E1-.2.
2. Lot area does not meet requirements of Section 4, C -2e.
Approval of this application should be subject to providing access
to the lot. The access apparently is dependent upon the Urban Re-
newal location. -A copy of the applicants plot plan is attached.
The structoral plans have been checked for compliance with the
Uniform Building Code and are acceptable.
Very truly yours,
CITY OF KODIAK
Rolland A. Jones
City Engineer
