AGENDA STATEMENT
Meeting of: September 4, 1997
ITEM TITLE: Rezoning of portions of the area subject to the Lakeside
Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Land Use Plan, to implement proposed revisions to the
Plan. Specifically:
**Lots 3 through 11, Block 3, Lakeside Subdivision from LI -Light Industrial and
NU -Natural Use to R -1 -Single Family Residential;
**Lots 1 and 2, Block 3, Lakeside Subdivision from I -Industrial to RB -Retail
Business;
**Lot 1, Block 1, Lakeside Subdivision from LI -Light Industrial to RB Retail
Business;
**Lots 2 through 7, and the undeveloped right-of-way adjacent to Lot 7, Block 1,
Lakeside Subdivision from LI -Light Industrial and PL -Public Use Lands to R2 -Two
Family Residential; and
**Portions of U. S. Surveys 3468 and U. S. Survey 3467 (front side of Beaver
lake) from PL -Public Use Lands NU -Natural Use (approximately 10.5 acres).
SUMMARY STATEMENT: The purpose of this rezoning is to implement proposed
revisions to the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Land Use Plan. Rezoning is one
tool for implementing a land use plan; other commonly used tools are platting
(subdivision), and land disposals when the government is the land owner. These tools are
also available to implement the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Plan, since local
governments are the major land owners in the planning area. In addition to the rezoning
action presented here, the Commission has also initiated additional rezoning of property
in the Subarea, consistent with proposed revisions to the Subarea Plan. The Commission
will consider this additional rezone at their October regular meeting.
Written material considered by the Commission, when evaluating this rezone action, is
attached for the Assembly's consideration.

The motion was SECONDED.
Regular Session Closed.
Public Hearing Opened:
Kathy Colwell appeared before the Commission and expressed support for this
request.
Mike Anderson appeared before the Commission and gave his input on the
development of this area. He stated that he grew up in Kodiak and that he was
also on the Commission about 10 years ago. He agreed that the land around the
lake should be kept as a natural use area. He did not feel that the Borough should
be in the business of developing and selling residential lots; that it should be left
to the individual who would buy larger parcels and develop them for whatever
uses are in demand. He felt this would take a financial burden off the tax payers.
Dale Soughers appeared before the Commission and commented on the history of
the tax assessment on his land, and how it fluctuated over a several year period.
He felt that the natural use area proposed for Beaver Lake was important to the
residents of this area.
Ellen Cloudy appeared before the Commission and expressed support for this
request. She expressed a concern about the buffer zone between the residential
lots on Selief Lane and the airport. She didn't feel that there was enough
P&ZMinutes: August 20, 1997 Page 11 of 14
protection of the buffer zone and that there should be more enforceable rules when
the vegetation in those areas was disturbed.
Eric Schneider appeared before the Commission to express his concern about a
situation when people buy a lot with expectations about what is being developed
in the surrounding area, and then the zoning in that surrounding area is changed.
A letter was read into the record from Lew and Elizabeth Santoro expressing
opposition to the development of land in front of and around Beaver Lake.
Lee Russell called in to express opposition to any residential zoning on the front
side of Beaver Lake. He agreed with comments expressed in the letter from Mr.
& Mr. Santoro. He felt putting more residential lots 011 the market would drive
private developers out of business.
Public Hearing Closed.
Regular Session Opened.
The question was called and the motion CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote.
COMMISSIONER TURNER MOVED TO INVESTIGATE the rezoning of
Lots 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D, Lakeside Subdivision, 2nd Addition, Lot 8, Industrial

To: The Planning and Zoning Commission Members
From: Lew and Elizabeth Santoro
Subject: Opposition to Case 95-024, the development of land fronting and surrounding
Beaver Lake.
The quality of life in Kodiak is threatened. Beaver Lake is part of the important
watershed system that is here within the city of Kodiak, providing habitat to animals and
recreation to humans. It provides citizens who haven't time and/or recreation vehicle, or
who don't necessarily want to hunt, to have unrestricted public access to the beauty and
quiet of unspoiled nature trails. One reason people choose to live here is Kodiak's allure
of living in nature and in town. At this time, the indiscriminate sale of land to de'velopers
for more housing should not be an issue. There are new housing facilities just finished at
the Coast Guard Base with more renovation being done now. A look in the paper can
show a buyer's market for housing in town and around Kodiak city.
This in -town watershed system, including Upper and Lower Horseshoe Lake, Beaver
Lake, Dark Lake and Island Lake is in need of protection from existing man-made
pollution if it is to remain viable for animal habitat and human use. What happens to any of
these lakes affects the other lakes and the whole community. There should be a plan in
place for the protection of this water system, approved by all governing entities involved,
before any rezoning is considered..
Thanking you for your time and efforts on behalf of Kodiak.

TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Conimunity Deve1opmentDepartme,f
SUBJECT: Information for the August 20, 199 eu1ar Meeting
CASE: 95-024
REQUEST: Planning and Zoning Commission consideration of a rezone, in
accordance with Section 17.72.030.A. (Manner of Initiation) of the
Borough Code, of a portion of the area subject to the Lakeside
Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Land Use Plan, to implement proposed
revisions to the plan.
Public Hearing Item VI -G
LOCATION: Blocks 1 and 3, Lakeside Subdivision, and portions of U. S. Surveys 3468
and 3467 (front side of Beaver Lake).
ZONING: Various zoning districts
Eighty-one (81) public hearing notices were distributed on August 5, 1997.
Date of site visit:
This site has been visited multiple times in the past by staff and the
Commission.
Zoning History: The 1968 Comprehensive Plan shows this area being zoned
"residential -unclassified" and "public and semi-public". A majority
of the planning area was rezoned to I -Industrial in 1980. Numerous
rezones have occurred in the area since that time, each rezoning
moving the area away from the original industrial zoning.
2. Lot Size:
Multiple lots and blocks are included in this rezone. The total
acreage of each of the blocks identified for possible rezoning is:
Block 3, Lakeside Subdivision - 8.5 acres (approx.)
Portions of U. S. Survey 3468 and U. S. 3467 (front side of Beaver
Lake) - 10.5 acres (approx.)
Block 1, Lakeside Subdivision (including the undeveloped right-
of-way extension of Beaver Lake Drive) - 10 acres (approx.)
Case 95-024 Page 1 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
n
Public Hearing Item VI -G
Existing Land Use: Block 3, Lakeside Subdivision - Lots 2 - 10 are undeveloped, Lot 1
is used for crab pot storage.
Portions of U. S. Survey 346$ and U. S. 3476 (front side of Beaver
Lake) is undeveloped.
Block 1, Lakeside Subdivision Lots 1, and 3-7, and the right-of-
way extension of Beaver Lake Drive are undeveloped. Lot 2
contains the City of Kodiak impound yard.
4. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning:
North:
Generally to the north of the parcels proposed for rezoning are:
residential lots around Dark Lake; partially developed industrially
zoned land and the new ball field complex; and vacant land
(contiguous with the Safeway shopping area).
South: Generally to the south of the parcels proposed for rezoning is the
City of Kodiak municipal airport.
East: Generally to the east of the parcels proposed for rezoning is a
portion of the City of Kodiak municipal airport and the Safeway
shopping area and contiguous undeveloped property.
West: Generally to the east of the parcels proposed for rezoning is Beaver
Lake.
Comprehensive Plan:
The current applicable land use plan for this area was
adopted in November of 1991. The rezoning proposed in
this staff report is inconsistent with that Plan; however,
before this rezoning proceeds, the commission will
consider amendments to the Plan, consistent with the
rezoning recommendation contained in this staff report.
6. Applicable Regulations: The following sections of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Borough
Code and the Kodiak Island Borough Coastal Management
Program are applicable to this request:
17.72.030 Manner of initiation. Changes in this title may be initiated in the following manner:

requesting that the commission's action be taken up by the borough assembly.
COASTAL MANAGEMENT APPLICABLE POLICIES
Residential Development
1. Location
In areas with poorly draining soils, development where feasible shall be connected
to a sewer line. Where this is not feasible, on-site facilities shall be designed so as
not to cause conditions that will pollute rivers, lakes, and other water bodies,
including the ground water supply.
Consistent:
2. Open Space
Yes, the area proposed for rezoning has access to public
sewer lines.
Green areas and open space shall be retained to the maximum extent feasible and
prudent when land is subdivided.
Case 95-024 Page 3 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
Consistent:
3. Access
Public Hearing Item VI -G
Yes, while this decision is not a platting (subdivision)
decision, the rezoning proposal recognizes the need to
retain open space in the community, and provides for that
retention.
New subdivisions or other residential developments on the shoreline shall provide
usable public access: to and along the shoreline, extending the lengthof the
development, to the extent feasible and prudent.
Consistent:
4. Hazardous Lands
Yes, again, while this decision is not a platting
(subdivision) decision, the rezoning proposal provides for
useable public access to and along the shoreline of Beaver
Lake, extending the length of the proposed residential area.
Development shall not occur in hazardous areas such as avalanche run -out zones,
active flood plains, and high water channels to the extent feasible and prudent.
Siting, design, and construction measures to minimize exposure to coastal erosion,
mass wasting and historic tsunami run-up shall be required to the extent feasible
and prudent.
Consistent: N/A, the area proposed to be rezoned is not in a known
hazardous area.
5. Wetlands
Filling and drainage of water bodies, floodways, backshores, and natural wetlands
shall be consistent with ACMP Standards 6 AAC 80.070 (Energy Facilities) and 6
AAC 80.130 (Habitats).
Consistent:
Yes, while rezoning, in and of itself, does not permit
development, it is the first step in the process of
development. The rezoning proposal protects natural
wetlands in the area by recommending that these areas be
rezoned to NU -Natural Use, a protective zoning district.
Commercial/Industrial Development
1. Natural Features
Case 95-024 Page 4 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
Public Hearing Item VI -G
Dredge and fill, excavation, shoreline alteration and disturbance of anadromous
streams, tide flats and wetlands shall be minimized when constructing and
operating port, harbor, dock, business and energy facilities - if permitted under
applicable regulations.
Consistent:
N/A, the subject area is not located along the shoreline or
adjacent to an anadromous stream. The areas proposed for
commercial zoning in the area do not contain identified
wetlands.
2. Natural Setting, Views and Access
Development shall be conducted in a manner that mitigates adverse impacts upon
the Kodiak Archipelago; developers shall provide opportunities for public access
to the shoreline and scenic views, to the extent feasible and prudent.
Consistent:
N/A, the commercial development area in the rezone
proposal is not located along the shoreline, nor will it limit
scenic views in the vicinity.
Dredge and Excavation Material
Dredging and filling shall be consistent with ACMP Standards 6 AAC 80.040
(Coastal Development) and 6 AAC 80.110 (Mineral and Mining Processing).
Dredge spoil may be utilized in shoreside landfills if perrnitted under applicable
regulations for the purpose of creating usable waterfront land.
Consistent:
4. Facility Design
N/A, this area will not be subject to dredge and fill
activities, as specified in the Alaska Administrative Code,
referenced in this KIBCMP policy.
Developments in or over the water, such as piers, docks and protective structures
shall be located, designed and maintained in a manner that prevents adverse
impacts upon water quality, fish, wildlife and vegetative resources and minimizes
interruption of water circulation patterns, coastal processes and navigation.
Consistent:
N/A, this rezoning proposal does allow for development
activities "in or over the water", except as may be further
permitted in the area recommended for rezoning to Natural
Use, for public recreation structures. Any future
Case 95-024 Page 5 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
Public Hearing Item VI -G
development of such structures will be required to meet this
KIBCMP policy.
5. Buffer Zones
Buffer zones shall be established to the extent feasible and prudent, between
business areas and major public transportation routes and between business
development and adjacent, non -business properties in order to minimize conflicts
between land uses.
Consistent:
Yes, this rezoning proposal has been developed to
specifically meet this policy, by recommending a consistent
and graduated zoning pattern in the area that should reduce
or eliminate conflicts between land uses once the area is
fully developed.
6. Accessory Development
Accessory development that does not require a shoreline location in order to carry
out its support functions shall be sited away from the shoreline whenever there is
a feasible and prudent inland alternative. This category includes parking,
warehousing, open air storage, waste storage, treatment or storm runoff control
facilities or utilities.
Consistent: N/A, this rezoning proposal does not allow accessory
development along the shoreline.
7. Wetlands
Filling and drainage of water bodies, floodways, backshores or natural wetlands
shall be consistent with ACMP Standards 6 AAC 80.070 (Energy Facilities) and 6
AAC 80.130 (Habitats).
Consistent:
Yes, while the rezoning, in and of itself, does not permit
development, it is the first step in the process of
development. The rezoning proposal protects natural
wetlands in the area by recommending that these areas be
rezoned to NU -Natural Use, a protective zoning district.
Case 95-024 Page 6 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
Public Hearing Item VI -G
COMMENTS
The purpose of this request is to investigate the possible rezone of three areas within the
Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea, consistent with recommended revisions to the Subarea
Plan. A brief history of development in the Subarea is contained in the staff report that relates
specifically to the Subarea Plan revisions, and is not repeated here. If the recommended revisions
to the Subarea Plan are made, the rezoning recommendations contained in this staff report will be
consistent with the Plan.
Rezoning is one tool for implementing a comprehensive plan; Other commonly used tools are
platting, and land disposals, when the government is a land owner. These tools are also available
to implement the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Plan, since local governments are the
major land owners in the planning area. Typical issues considered in evaluating rezone requests
include: conformance with the comprehensive plan, land suitability, recent development trends in
the area, and traffic impacts including adequate access and off-street parking.
The specific rezoning recommended by staff, and consistent with the recommended revisions to
the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Plan, are:
Rezoning: Lots 3 - 11, Block 3, Lakeside Subdivision from LI -Light Industrial and
NU -Natural Use to R1 -Single Family Residential.
Lots 1 - 2, Block 3, Lakeside Subdivision from I-Industrialo RB -Retail
Business.
Rezoning: Lots 2 - 7, and the undeveloped right-of-way adjacent to Lot 7, Block 1,
Lakeside Subdivision from LI -Light Industrial and PL -Public Use
to R -2 -Two Family Residential,
Lot 1, Block 1, Lakeside Subdivision from LI -Light Industrial to R -2 -Two
Family Residential.
Rezoning: Portions of U. S. Survey 3468 and U. S. Survey 3467 (front side of Beaver
Lake) from PL -Public Use Lands to R -1 -Single Family
(approximately 4 acres) and NU -Natural Use (approximately 6.5
acres) as shown on the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea
Plan map.
Staff also recommends that the Commission reinitiate the rezoning of the following lots from I -
Industrial to RB -Retail Business:
* Lots 1A, 113, 1C, and 1D, Lakeside Subdivision, 2nd Addition
* Lot 8, Industrial Park Subdivision
* Tracts S -4A -1B, S -4A -1C, S -5A-1, M -1A-1 and M -1A-2 of U. S. Survey 3218
Case 95-024 Page 7 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
Public Hearing Item VI -G
CONFORMANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
As noted earlier, if the Commission accepts staff recommendations for revising the Lakeside
Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Plan, for forwarding to the Assembly, the recommendations
contained in this rezoning proposal are in conformance with that Plan.
ZONING/USE:
The predominate developed use in the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea, located north of
the Kodiak municipal airport where the rezoning proposal is focused, is residential. The general
area, as noted in the Subarea Plan, includes developing public recreational facilities (ballfields.
and BMX track), and an expanding retail/commercial area anchored by the•Safeway store. The
municipal airport provides a distinct, separation between the residential development located
along Selief Lane, and the general business development located along Mill Bay Road.
LAND SUITABILITY:
The land is this area exhibits rolling terrain that generally slopes down toward Beaver Lake.
Some locations in the Subarea are characterized by steep slopes, wetlands, or other physical
features that make the land unsuitable for development. These areas have been identified for
rezoning to NU -Natural Use, which limits future development.
Another aspect of land suitability is the concept of what is land "best suited" for. In the Subarea,
one location has been the focus of most of the discussion about future land use. This area is the
"front side" of Beaver Lake. Staff believes that some areas along the front side of Beaver Lake
are "suitable" for development; meaning that they can be adapted to this use or purpose. That fact
that portions of the front side of Beaver Lake are suitable for development, is not inconsistent
with the fact that much of the public comment received by staff has strongly rejected the
suggestion of any structural development in this portion of the Subarea. Often land that is
valuable or suitable for one use or purpose has qualities that make it suitable or useful for other
uses or purposes. This is the case with some portions of the area located along the front side of
Beaver Lake. Staff believes that pockets of residential development along the front side of
Beaver Lake, will change the physical environment of the Subarea, but that such development
will not "destroy" the recreational and habitat values of the area.
RECENT DEVELOPMENT TRENDS IN THE AREA:
This particular issue as it relates to this rezoning proposal is described both above, and in the
staff report accompanying the proposed revisions to the Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea
Plan.
TRAFFIC IMPACTS:
The rights-of-way in this area are 100 foot rights-of-way, with developed roads able to handle the
level of traffic anticipated by the development that might result if the rezoning proposal is
Case 95-024 Page 8 of 10 P & Z: August 20, 1997
Public Hearing Item VI -G
adopted. However, additional pedestrian and bicycle traffic is expected with the proposed
increase in residential use in the area. To address this growing use, both m the greater community
and potentially in the Subarea, the Kodiak Island Borough is continuing to expand trail planning,
design and development. Plans call for an interconnected bike/pedestrian trail system, off the
motorized traveled way where possible, to accommodate and encourage this activity.
RECOMMENDATION
Staffrecommends that the Commission forward this rezone proposal to the Kodiak Island
Borough Assembly with a recommendation for approval, based 011 the following findings:
17.72.020 A. Findings as to the Need and Justification for the Change
The recommended rezoning proposal is needed and justified, as it is the primary tool that will
implement the revised Lakeside Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Plan. Should the rezoning not be
approved the area could develop in a way that is inherently inconsistent with the revised Plan. A
great deal of thought and energy has gone into the Plan revision process, and this rezoning
proposal provides a mechanism to ensure that future development in the Subarea is consistent
with the Plan, as recently recommended for revision.
17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect the Change will have on the Objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan
The recommended rezoning proposal will promote the objectives of the Lakeside
Subdivision/Safeway Subarea Plan, as recommended for revision.

KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
re: DEVELOPMENT OF LOTS AROUND BEAVER LAKE
AUG 20 1997
I AM OPPOSED TO FURTHER DEVELOPMENT IN THIS AREA.m MY REASONS ARE BASED ON FOND
MEMORIES OF TRAPPING THIS LAKE CHAIN AS A 12 yr OLD BOY IN THE EARLY SIXTIES AND DOING
LIMNOLOGICAL WORK ON THESE LAKES IN'1995 & 1996.
QUALITY OF LIFE CANNOT BE MEASURED IN ECONOMIC TERMS ALONE. GROWING UP, IN KODIAK
I HAVE A DEEP SENSE OF THE PRESENCE OF WILDERNESS. IT IS ONE OF THE QUALITIES THAT
MAKES THIS AREA SO ATTRACTIVE FOR A PLACE TO LIVE AND .TO VISIT.
WE NEED TO KEEP SOME AREAS FREE OF DEVELOPMENT SO THAT '`_'.ISLANDS " OF WILDERNESS
WILL BE ACCESSIBLE TE FUTURE GENERATIONS.
THIS LAKE SYSTEM WAS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AREAS SO CLOSE TO TOWN', IN WALKING
DISTANCE. HORSESHOE & LILLY LAKES HAVE BEEN ALTERED, DRAMATICALLY RIMMED BY
DEVELOPMENT, THE WATER TURBID AS A MUD PUDDLE DUE TO THE DEVELOPMENT: ISLAND AND
DARKLANDS HAVE BECOME ONE OF THE NICE RESIDENTIAL AREAS IN KODIAK. THE ROADS DON T•
RIM THE LAKE AND WATERQUALiTY.'ON`THESE LAKES REMAINS VERY GOOD.
BEAVER LAKE IS ON THE EDGE. IT HAS THE LEAST DEVELOPMENT ON IT'S SHORE, BUT
EROSION AND POLLUTION ( SEWAGE ),FROM DEVELOPMENT ON SELIEF IS BEING DUMPED INTO ONE
END. PIECEMEAL DEVELOPMENT HAS A CUMTTLATIVE EFFECT.EROSION FROM BUILDING ROADS
AND DEVELOPING LOTS -WOULD DEGRADE THE WATER QUALITY AND ALTER THE ONLY LAKE LEFT
IN THIS LAKE SYSTEM THAT DOESN'T HAVE DEVELOPMENT ALONG IT'S SHORE.
I THINK THE CHARACTER OF KODIAK DESERVES TO HAVE AN UNDISTURBED LAKESHORE AS
PART OF WHAT L REMEMBER AS ONE OF THE NICEST AREAS NEAR TOWN. - LEAVE JUST A -LITTLE
BIT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WILL LIVE HERE IN THE FUTURE.

Living �n'an island, such as

much of our lives- are affected
by water. As we 'waik through

may seem at times that 'we ae
not merely surrounded by wa-

double-edged sword, . however,
and how we manage our use of
water, beforeand after, has ef-
fects on ourenvironment. We
are an integral part of the wa-
tersheds of Kodiak. -
A watershed is an area�f
land froin. which ail. the water
drains (downhill) to the same
location such as a stream, .pond,
lake, river; wetjand, orestuary.
A "watershed system" is 'a

There are three.major,waer-
sheds in the vicinity ofKodiak.
A11 three have aspects in com-
mon such as fish runs in their,
- streams, but are utilized by our
communiiy in different ways,
for different reasons. The first'
i the Pillar Creek watershed
'from which the.city of Kodiak
gets its drinking water. The sec-
ond is the Horseshoe, Lake/Is-,

green belt and recreation area
for Kodiak and site of present

DISCUSSION
Freed providecl copies ofthe adopted Lakeside Subdivision!Safeway Sub -Area plan to all those
in attendance. She also reviewed the discussion that had occurred at the joint worksession
between the Plarming and Zoning Commission and the Assembly, held on February 27, 1997. At
that worksession, the Assembly gave the Commission direction, to work on tasks that could
allow for a Borough land sale in the Beaver Lake area (in November) as their highest work
priority. Freed displayed an urban area map that showed the boundary ofthe area included in the
Lakeside SubdivisionlSafeway Sub -Area Plan. She commented that one ofthe first tasks the
Comrnission might want to consider is what is the appropriate boundary for this planning project.
Based on the joint worksession discussion, Commission members recominended enlarging the
area to be considered as part ofthis plarming effort.
The core ofthe plamiing are will be the Beaver Lake area, connected lake system and adjacent
properties. Concern was expressed by Hoffman that the Comrnission was not aliowing for public
participation since the planning area had been expanded to encompass an area larger than was
advertised in the newspaper. The Commission, staff and other attendees discussed this concem at
length. The Conmiission noted that they fully intended to involve the public in the planning
process, but that they had to start somewhere.
In discussing the possible boundaries ofthe area under consideration, Lilly Lake was identified.
The consensus was that Lilly Lake was not part of the drainage - watershed area being looked at,
March 5, 1997 Worksession Notes Page 1 of 3
and so it could be excluded from the planning area. However, the planning area was expanded to
include trails and recreation areas m the Beaver Lake and contiguous watershed area.
Soughers expressed concern that some ofthe trails on the Pillar Mountain ridgeline might
become roads in the future (to serve development), and so there is a real need to preserve the area
around Beaver Lake in its natural state. In addition, he expressed the opinion that the community
has lost the use oflsland Lake and Dark Lake; that Beaver Lake is the only lake lefi where a
canoe can be launched.
APPROACHIES/SCHEDULING
Discussion then centered on how to tackle this planrnng project. Several options were discussed:
scoping meetings to identif' public concems; direction to staffto develop a draft plan, to be used
as a means of obtaining public response; and working on the plan in sections.
There was consensus that this project must be broken down into parts in order to be "do -able".
One option discussed was to break the larger planning area into smaller geographical areas to
provide an opportunity for specific neighborhood input. Colwell commented that she was
concerned about social economic, and environmental issues; and she strongly believes that
people in a neighborhood should determine their density. Colwell informed the Commission
about the formation of the Kodiak Wetlands and Watershed Association (KWWA).
This lead to a discussion ofissues surroundmg Biock 3, Lakeside Subdivision and the land
adjacent to Beaver Lake. Colwell stated that the Association and neighbors were concemed about
the cutting of trees in the area and what impact this will have on the environment, especially the
possibility of increased erosion. They are also concerned about the topography, since all the land
in the area siopes down to Beaver Lake, causing negative impacts to the lake. In addition,
development can add to erosion in the area, again with all the drainage in the area leading to
Beaver Lake. Colwell stated that as residents we have a responsibility to be stewards of our
environment.
Hoffman raised a question about why protect the north side of Beaver Lake and the hiliside 011
the north side of Selief Lane, but not the south side of the lake, since both these areas dram into
the same lake. Cassidy responded that it was an issue of sensitivity, and was related to
topography (steepness ofthe terrain), wetlands, soils and vegetation. The area on the South side
ofBeaver lake is not as environmentally sensitive as the wetland area and the hiliside.
Colwell stated that the association feels we need professional answers to the questions raised.
She has personaily contacted Anchorage for information. There was some discussion about the
information she had .received. Freed noted that she had a great deal of information about 11011 -
point source pollution control techniques, having been involved in the coastal non -point source
pollution control program. Freed will review the information and make it available at the next
meeting.
Scheidler pointed out another approach to the plaiming process might be to look at systems
common to the entire area, and use an overlay technique. That way the Comrnission could focus
March 5, 1997 Worksession Notes Page 2 of 3
011 issues or topies rather than geographical sub -areas. There was consensus that this approach
seemed the best ofthose discussed and would provide the public with an opportunityto get
involved in subject areas ofconcem to them.
The Coinmission identified the foliowing systems or issues to focus on:
topography, surface water (wetlands, lakes and creeks)
recreation uses (trails and parks)
urban development
community facilities
Staff suggested using air photos of the area as the initial base maps for the proj ect. The
Comniission agreed to continue the discussion of this planning project at their next worksession,
on March 26, 1997. The Commission, still in the exploratory stage, asked staffto bring
information and references that can help in the planning process to the meeting. Staffwas asked
to advertise the next meeting more broadly, with a map ifpossible. Staffwill also provide the air
photos for the area to get started on the mapping and overlay process. The Commission will try
and focus on the recreation! trails aspects ofthe area at the next meeting.

Letter to the etlitor
Keep Beaver Lake public
To the editor
1 purchased my property 011
Selief Street in 1982 because of
its unique Iocation and it is at
the end of a dead end cul-de-sac
on lake frontage. 1 built and
moved into my home in January
of 1983 and at that time it was
only the third house on the street.
The problem of Beaver Lake
hegan iri March of 1985 when
the borough submitted a Vaca-
tion and Replat ofLakeside Sub-
division to the P&Z Commission.
After much public testimony,
P&Z denied the proposed subdi-
vision. At that time, Mayor
Jerome Selby felt it was in ihe
best interest of the borough to
overturn the denial because he
feft that the best use of this land
(Beaver Lake) was not ad-
equately considered even though
a petition of 101 residents told
him otherwise.
Concerned residents of Selief
Street challenged this decision as
the borough mayor's actions
were invalid because it was not
taken at a properly noticed pub-
lic meeting of whieh a quorum
was required to be present. The
borough pursued this matter at
the expense of taxpayers and fi-
naily on Sept. 5, 1985, the as-
sembly realizing it was wrong re-
scinded their actions and had to
pay for the plaintiffs legal ex-
pcnscs as well.
Thcn we had to hattle a rczon-
ing issuc of thc lakc to prcvcnt
dcvelopmcnt at the same tirne
and we received 624 names on a
petition to prevcnt hc Borough
from rezoning and developing the
area around BeaverLake.
1 read whcre Assembly Mern-
ber Wayne Stevens commented
that before he moved into his
property on Selief it was a swamp
land where people went berry
picking. Well ifMr. Stevens
Iooks closely today he will see
that what was once a lake is turn-
ing into a swamp and yes people
still go berry picking, hiking, bik-
ing, canoeing, and ice skating on
or around Beaver Lake.
The comment was also made
that we're constantly faced with
"not in my back yard." That's
exactly right. Quit tryingto re-
zone and sell those "back yards."
Look carefully at the comprehen-
sive plan and look to the future.
Rezoning and selling the lols
around Beaver Lake is not going
10 solve our current education
woes. You cannot fund educa-
tion on the sale of six Iots, but
you can destroy the lake and land
around it.
Selief Street is still not paved
10 this date because of drainage
problems and wildlife issues. But
yet Mayor Selby wants to again
develop Beaver Lake. The pub-
Iic wanted this lake to be public
use land, as it is the last public
lake left where the property sur-
rounding the lake is not privately
owned. Are we going to revisit
Beaver Lake every tcn ycars. or
arc wc going to reali/.c that this
is thc Iast puhlic arca lcft lor thc

Governo
To Assembly Membersd Honorable Mayor: $
1 know that the Assembly is meeting next Thursday with the Planning and Zoning
Commission to give direction for disposal of land, and indications are that you intend
to include parcels close Beaver Lake. My comments tonight are to point you in a
different direction.
If you share the values held my many of our residents of the importance of Iocal lakes,
streams, and wetlands you will be slow in putting lands that lie on either side of
Beaver Lake Drive up for public auction.
Three reasons why these parcels should not be developed at this time include:
(1) Beaver Lake Area is zoned Public Lands and should be held in trust to be used by
the public. Equally important is the fact that Beaver Lake 15 part of a Iarge watershed
thatserves the Selief Lane area and provides habitat for fish and,wildlife.
(2)No environmental study has been done that suppo.rts further development canbe
done without causing irreparable harm to the watershed environment.
(3) Our Borough needs to first put in place and demonstrategood local planningfor
environm entally-sensitive areas.
Beaver Lake is part of a very important watershed for those living along Selief Lana Jt
is reasonable to state that if unrestrained development occurs Beaver Lake wiH
become like Horseshoe Lake, that is, essentially fiIled-in as a result of road.runoff, a
culvert drainage system set up by engineers, and uncontrolled development. It 15 true
that homes have been built in a swamp, expedited by need of a boom economy. But
the boom is over and the trend for cornmunities today is to do a better job of planning,
even to revitalize their character. Beaver Lake and Horseshoe Lake areas make an
integral statement about Kodiak and these lakes make our community a much better
place to live.
An incorrect staternent that water/sewer stub -outs exist on the Lakeside was reported
in the Feb. 6 issue of the Mirror. However, most worrisome is 'the belief by members of
the Assembly that "Beaver Lake is the next Iogical piece to put on the market."
Logical to whom, may 1 ask?
To a developer? Whose only interest is financial. He does not and will
not be living there
To Anaccount? Who sees land as pots of money. He does not and will
not be living there.
To a local government that wants to broaden the tax base by selling all
parcels that have access to a road? Beaver Lake is a remaining parcel with road
access.
Or is it Iogical to the majority of our residents who have nothing to gain financially
who value this' natural resource ? No, It is not Iogical to us at all.
It has been said that there are ways to do development, still have a greenbelt and
public access to the lakes.
Maybe 1 have mssed something, but 1 am unaware of any successful development
including greenbelts on private property in our town, Because of this our Iocal
neighbors do not have confidence that thoughtful development will occur, since private
construction is driven by the harsh reality of high cost and profit.
This is not to say that planning has not been attempted. A close -to -home example of
planning is just opposite the parcels on Selief Lane, .e. Biock 2 of Lakeside
Subdivision. Here a strip of housing units were bullt next to one of the most opposite
of land uses, the Munibipal Airport. In recognition of the conflicting use, the borough
squeezed in a 50' buffer strip behind the lots separating the homes from the airport.
Unfortunately, the borough did not take time to list any buffer zone specifications, such
that it contains trees, or even development restrictions. Since the borough also has no
enforcement powers, people have cut down trees without penalty and waik through
private property at will, occasionally throwing rocks at windows.
The City is now left with the prossure by landowners to pay for the cost of installing a
metal fence along this strip to protect private property. The purpose of the buffer zone
failed and so, we think, will be the failure of a greenbelt and traU around a lake behind
private property.
Onthe brighter side, we citizens intend to create an organization that address the
concerns of the threat of further development near Beaver Lake. Our goals include
investigating several issues: (1) to measure the environmental impact of tree removal
on Biock 3, Lakeside Subdivisiori; (2) to determine what should be the depth in feet of
an effective greenbelt in Kodiak; (3) what can be done about the consequences of an -
old fashioned culvert drainage system that intentionauy delivers aU road -runoff and
erosion from VonScheele southward into Beaver Lake; (4) and what is required to
protect and preserve this expanse of beauty. And, yes, we will seek funds to set aside
this area for the future of our town and for the character of our town. And, yes, we wiU
continue working to revitalize the Horseshoe Lake and wetland areas.
Rather than putting these lands on the auction biock, 1 ask that you let us first addrress
the tasks Iisted above because these need to be done first.
We stand ready to work with you and look forward to a cooperative effort to enable this
to succeed., Thank you very much.

Letter to the editor
Beaver Lake educational
To the editor:
In the Feb. 7 Mirror articte
"Lake Land Sale Taik Stirs the
Neighbors," an assembly mem-
ber stated that the land around
Beaver Lake should be sold to
create a tax base to fund educa-
tion.
To lay the blame on the backs
of educators for selling environ-
mentally sensitive lands was an
unfortunate comment. 1 believe
that if 1 took each educator on
this tour of the area they would
say "no" to selling the land in
the narne ofeducation.
My field trip begins al the deep
stream on the north end of Beaver
Lake which connects to Dark Lake.
Reminders of past beaver activity
will be apparent as we pass a small
cluster of knawed tree stumps be-
fore heading south along the peace-
ful lake bank. Eventually we will
leave Beaver Lake and take a shori
hike along Selief Lane to follow
the anadromous stream along the
roadside which soon loops behind
private homes. Once there, the
natunil scene will open into a bmad
expanse of true wetlands, support-
ing Coho saimon and waterfowl. k
The tiip will be an education in
itself.
Farther south - sits Horseshoe
Lake. This is another educational
opportunity because the po�r
conditions of this lake, which was
cut in-haif by Selief Lane, clearly
demonstrate the negative impacts
of fiuing-in from road runoff and
uncontrolled development.
If the assembly member's com-
ments are true, then in the name
of education we should destroy
this environment to pay for the
.costs of education so students can
read of living watersheds in
books.

Letters to the editor
Land sale not in report
To the edftor:
1 was stunned when read-
ing he Feb. 7 Mirror quote
that the assembty was look-
ing to sell Beaver Lake Iands
based .upon comments made
during the Town Meeting "to
enable economic develop-
ment."
1 was not able to attend the
Town Meeting but have now
read the report several times.
In my opinion, The Town
Meeting Repori is important
because it idenlilies many is-
sues facing our community.
The overall theme seems to
try to enable us 10 strive for
better community harmony
and quality of life, and many
proposed actions are Iisted.
However, selling frontage
land of Beaver Lake is not
listed as a proposed action for
economic development.
"Eeonomic development" pri-
marily refers to development
of seafood and tourism indus-
trics and finding cheaper en-
ergy sources (Proposed Ac-
tions, #2, Page 3).
1 urge you 10 thoroughly
read the report, particutarly
"The Vision" page. Five ele-
ments of tbe vision identifies
'Preserved Natural Environ-
ment" and "High Quality of
Life," including protecting
the environment, controlled
development, and beautitica-
bon. The smail area of land
encompassing Beaver Lake is
the very thingthat the Town.
Meeting recommends as part
of Ihe Vision.
This land offers a breath-
taking and peaceful walk for
any troveler along Selief
Lane and it should remain fer
all 10 share. 1 am deeply con-
cerned that we will lose tbis
valuc ofbeauty.
If more land needs to be
pul up for public auction
thoughtful planning and care-
ful evaluation of the impacts
of development need to be
weighed tirst. Sadly; Beaver
Lake land has been se!ected
because it simply is a parcel
of land that does not require
thc building of a road for ac-
cess.

We need green space
• To theeditor:
Last Thursdny and Friday's
DailyMirror contained front
page articles concerning land
sales, and parncularlysaies
of land around Beaver Lake.
Once again my neighbors

ing with the Borough gOvern-
ment over what to do with
the land around Beaver Lake.
The commenl attributed (0
Mr. Heinrichs' that this land
is the next logical piece 10
put on the market because it
has waler and sewer stub outs
is incorrect. The Bngineering
Department has confirmed
that no water and sewer stub
outs exjst on that section of
Selief Lane.
At Thursday nights Bor-
ough meeting response .10 my
testimony and that of others
was 10 characterize us as
anti -development. 11'! were (0

green spaces, public ptaces
and parks would have no
place in thc idea of develop-
ment. However we all know
that these are just the type of

the type er place people en-
joy living in and are able to

of area where cilizens feel no
such attachmenl.
This land was originally
zoned Public Use and still
carries that designation today.
11 has been the contention of
myself and others that the
zoning desigoation of Natu-
ral Use is beuer suiled to thjs
land. That eption did not ex-
ist when the original Compre-
hensive Plan was developed.
1 would hope that the Bor-
ough would be able to rec-
ognize that Kodiak needs
green places that are avail-
able to all citizens. It is time
thai we recognize that just
bccause land is sitting in its
natural state does not auto-
matically mean it is surplus,
is a waste is a Iess. These
nalural areas are assets that
we should be protecting for
the enjoyment of current and
future residents.

Lake land sale taik
stirs the neighbors
By SUE JEFFREY
Mirror Writer
Tbe borough assembly took
plenty of heat lasi night from
SeliefLane neighbors who oppose
plans to develop land on Beaver
Lake.
"The anic1, u tonight's paper
sent shock waves up and down
Selief Lane," said Elien Cloudy.
Residents have been waiting for
the next step to coutinue work on
a eornprehensive plan for the
Horseshoe Lake -Beaver Lake area,
but it sounds now that decisions
have been made already, Cloudy
said.
Though the assembly was not
taking action on the Beaver Lake
property at last night's mecting,
residents were responding to an
arilele in the Kodiak Daily Mirror
yesterday which reported that the
assembly is corisidcring pinus to
sell surplus borough lands, includ-
ing property in Larsen Bay, Bell's
Flats, Monashka Bay and the Bca-
ver Lake aren an Selief Lane. The
burough wouk! selI thc property
at a lund sale tcntatively sched-
uled for Novernber.
In rcccnt years ncighbors havc
suceessfully fought pluns to de-
velop land on Beaver Lake and
Frank Mites and Kathy CoIweiI,
president of the Horseshoe Lake
Community Association, told the
assembly they wifl continue to do
50.
"With fish in the lake and other
animais in the area, the area is bet-
ter served itt its natural state. 1
would like to see a park," Miles
said.
Co!weIl said the group is not
anti-developrnent and has consis-
tently supported residential devel-
opment of wooded property along
Selief which is currently zoned
light industrial.
"We just oppoe development
of land right nexi to the lake. Fur-
ther development on the lake will
further the demise of that lake sys-
tem."
CoIweIl said ncighbors have a
duty to struggle to keep their
ncighborhood good. Referring to
a comment at iast night's rneet-
ing, she said, '1t's not a case of
not in my back yard.' It's Lhe prin-
ciple—how tnufly towns Nave

In a rccent interview, Robin

cel on Beaver Lake is the next

ket.
"The infrastructure is atready

Heinriehs, who is also a local con-
tractor. In recent "gls and ob-

bly concurred that borough sur-

In August, Randy Chase washanded Iwo beat -
up Chcvy Blazers, complctc with carnouflage
paint and dents n the hoods.
Fhis weck Chase, the owner of RC Euler -
prises. unveiled the result of months of work
- a shiny, jet-blaek vehicle for the poliee Drug
Abuse Resistanee Edueation program.
Thc department's D.A.R,E. officers, Michael
McCarthy and Terry Ash. will use the vehicle
to travel to Kodiak sehools.
McCarthy said the eye-catching D.A.R.E. ve-
hieles are eommon in the Lower 48, but this
will be the first introduced in Alaska. He said it
is a sign the community supports the D.A.R.E.
program, which preaehes an anti-drug and via-
lence message to Iocal dementary schoo chii-
dren.
Local merebants and organizations contrib-
uted more than $6,000 in money and sen4ees
to bring the D.A.R.E. vehicle to the Kodiak
Potice Depariment.
They say 11 is money well -spent.
"Kodiak really needs a program like this,"
said Chase, who donated about $3,000 of his
own work to the vehiele. "It's a shame to see
what happens to some kids as they go through
sekool, and school is really where it all staris."
The black Blazer is designed to he a llashy,
attention -grabbing vebiele, providing a "visual
reinforeement" of the D.A.R.E, message to stu-
dents,
Making it a reality. however, wasn't easy.
The idea started when the Kodiak Poliee De-
pariment Ianded two free Blazers from the IJ.S.
Anity as part of a military surplus program.
Chase, who volunteered to refurbish one to make
the D,A.R.E. vehicle, actually had to use parts
from both to make one usahle Blazer.
It was quite a project," he said. "When the
governmcnt had those, they used them."
Chase did get pienly of help with the project.
Warner Tire and Yamaha provided wheel rims,
Coverific Upholstery put in black leather seats,
Sears chipped in tires, Napa Auto Parts donated
running boards, and the Chief Petty Officers
Auxiliary Msociation purthased the D.A.R.E.
decals covering the Blazer.
When alt the donations were totaled, police
actuafly ended up with a free vebiele.
"1 think it shows the community is uniried
behind this," McCarthy said. "it's a message
that the community supports this program,"

The borough assembly will
hold a pubile hearing at tonight's
borough mecting before deciding
whether to sefl foreelosed prop-
erty.
The assembly is also eonsider-
ing plans to sell surplus borough
lands, including property. in
Larsen Bay, Belt's flats,
Mcrnashka Bay and the Beaver
Lake area on Selief Lane. Both
foreelosed and surplus property
would be sold at a land sale ten-
tatively scheduled for November.
Though neighbors on Selief
have prot�sted development plans
on Beaver Lake in past years,
saying they prefer the arca to be
zoned natural use, Robin

siding officer, said ibe parcel on

Though in the preliminary
planning stagei, Heinrichs envi-
sions the property to be zoned
residential and include a waik-
ing path around the lake J'ront,
which wouid preserve public ac-
cess to the lake. Developing plans
and re -zoning takes months,
Heinrichs said, so the assembly
wants to begin the process this
winter.
Bud Cassidy, bor�ugh re-
source management ofticer, said
because the Beaver Lake prop-
erty is public land, not private
property, the community has a
say in how the parcel is devel-
•oped. Jt takes a Iong-range per-
spective to outline development.
"Though the state says
Kodiak's population decreased
Iast year. planning is based on
projections, what will be needed

We're planning forthe 2lstCen-
tiry," Cassidy said.
One local realtor says build-
able rcsidential lots with water
and sewer are in demand now.
Bonnie Aulabaugh, owner of
Chelsea Realty. says contractors
who want to build spec houses
will weleome the news that more
Iots soon may be on the inarket.
"Despite a surplus of rentals
on the market this ycar,"
Aulabaugh says, "home sales are
brisk and contractors are eager
to fill thedemand."
Aulabaugh could not estimate
the market value of property in
the Beaver Lake area wjthout
knowing lot sizcs and aiucnitics
such as views. adjaccnt waiking

"An averae ciLy lot on water

selis between $25,000 and
$35,000. To build an average -size
home, 11 costs $I00 to $110 a
square foot, inciuding the price
of the lot. If you add extras such
as skylights and ceramic tile, the
cost goes up from there."
But Lloyd Benton, a broker at
Associated !sland Brokers, says
the need for residential lots
strictly depends on the area.
"We've seen a definite drop in
demands for buildable lots over
the lasi year. Lee Russell has
10,000-12,000 square -foot lots
(extension of Woodland Acres
subdivision between Rezanof
Drive and Spruce Cape Road)
sclling roughly for $35.000 and
we're not getting much of a re-
sponse." Benton said. 'Perhaps
people are going through contrac-
tors rather than coming directly
to us."
Both surplus and foreclosed
property will be sold at fair mar-
ket value. Unless the borough
code is changed. the borough
must use the fair market value as
the starting price, not the amount
of property taxes owed on the
property.
The foreclosed parcels which
the borough acquired from the
199!, 1992, 1993 and 1994 tax
years, include six pieces on the
road system and seven remote
sites around the island. The pre
vious Iandowner can recoup the
property up until the time of the
sale by paying delinquent taxes
and foreclosure process costs in-
curred by the borough. 11 the
property is sold, the proceeds first
pay delinquent taxes bills and
borough foreclosure costs. Any
remaining equity thcngocs to thc

Re: Borough Wetlands and Upper Horseshoe Lake, Selief Lane area
Dear Linda:
Several months ago the Horseshoe Lake Community Association addressed a
joint meeting af KIB Assembly Members and Planning and Zoning Commissioners
requesting a rezonFng af weltands in USS 2538A, Tract A. The Assembly directed the
Comrriissioners to review the area and to also irictude in the review borough
properties adjacent to Beaver Lake.
We are appreciative of the time the Commissioners and your staif have
dedicated to this project. We would like to Iearn if any recommendations have been
finalized regarding Tract A, USS 2538A. Also some discussion by your staf? had
occurred with Lee FIussell owner of Lot 20 in USS 1396, commonly known as Lipper
Horseshoe Lake. Mt Russell was requesting a land trade of this small pond" for a
small piece of property in the Borough. Since this trade could enable the stmgglirig
preservatton of the pond, as Mr, Husse!l is a developer, we have great interest in the
outcome of the discussions with Mr. FIusseIl.
P$ease advise us of the status of these lands 50 our organization can move n
the proper direction.
Thank you very much!

Selief Lane/Horseshoe Lake Fie d Trip
This field trip toured the Horseshoe Lalce, hillside and wet1ands viQinity of the area proposed
for rezorje from RR1 to NU -Natural Use. Present on the field trip were 5 commissioners and
3 property owners iiicluding Ellen Cloudy, Frank Miles and Richard Hoffman.
Starting from the road spur at Beaver Jake, the group walked westerly through the wetlands
behind the houses along Selief Lane. Observing the fragile beauty of the wetlands and steep,
potentially unstable siopes of the hfflside, the group's consensus was that the area should
appropriately be rezoned to NIJ-Natural iJse in the interest of preserving it and the ecosystem
created by the chain of lakes.
There was discussion how far up the siopes the area designated as natural use should extend,
and whether or not it should reach a]i the way to the watershed district surrounding the upper
reservobs. As was the case on the trails earlier around Beaver Lake, the negative impacts of
ATV traffic was readily apparent. However, it was also obvious from encountering a number
of people that the trails aiong the system were well used for a variety of recreational purposes.
The tour finished with a walk back down Selief Lane from the reservoir and observation of the
houses that have been developed in the ftlled area of what was, at one time, an extension of
Horseshoe Lake. The Commission Chairman gave direction to staff to proceed with the
rezone to NU -Natural Use to protect the wetlands and recreational anienities of the area.

SUBJBCT: Sdief Lane/Beaver Lake Field Trip
Tbis field trip focused on the Beaver Lake vicinity of the proposed rezone area with a waiking
tour of the txails between the lake and Selief and Beaver Lake Loop roads where subdivision
and disposal of lots has been proposed. Included in the waik and discussion was the area
immediately adjacent to the low-inconie housing and Biock 3 of Lakeside Subdivision,
presently vacant and zoned LI -Light Industrial.
Present on the field trip were 6 commissioners, 1 Assembly member, and 5 property owners in
the immediate vicinity of Beaver Lake, including Donene Tweeten, Ellen Cloudy, Brenda
Kramer, and Richard and Faimalill Hoffman.
Concern was expressed by nei.ghboring property owners about degradation of the lake caused
by excavation and loss of trees. The point was made by a commissioner that the infrastructure
(roads, water, sewer) was already in and shou[d be taken advantage of to make affordable
residential lots available to the public and generate revenues through property sales.
Neighbors were also co.ncerned that, even if greenbelts were designated 10 protect the
perimeter of the lake, lack of enforcement would make it ineffective. Staif emphasized that
the design of lots could take any form necessary to protect the lake, create a traii, and address
density concerns. It was emphasFzed that, contrary to some of the neighbors' understanding,
the PL -Public Lands Zoning District permitted many uses and structural development of
varying degrees of intensity and was not only for park designation.
There was discussion that Biock 3 would be more suitable for residentlal development rather
than industrial as present.Iy zoned, and that, as a result, there might be less pressure to
subdivide and dispose of lots along Beaver Lake where siopes from Selief Lane to the water
surface were rnore extreme.
Due to deteriorating weather, it was decided to schedule another field trip at a later date to
focus on the area around Horseshoe Lake, the reservoir, the wetlands, and the hiliside.

SELJEF LANE REZONE
L INTROD UCTION
We are discussing two issues tonight. They are a result ofthejoint AssemblyfP&Z
worksession Iast fall. The issues are as follows:
1. A desire to preserve land behind the SeliefLane area. This area is thought by
many to be sensitive lands that should be reserved. It includes wetlandsnd steep
siope areas behind the residential area of SeliefLane.
2. A review ofland between B�aver Lake and SeliefLane
11. SELIEF LANE .SENSITIVE LANDS.
Kathy CoIwell and the Horseshoe Lake Community Council have requested that this area
be Iooked at with an eye to protect the land because ofits sensitive nature, That is,
drainage from a Iarge watershed that includes Pillar Mountairz finds its way into the ditch
running along SeliefLane. During.times of high water the ditch fihis with water and floods
adjacerit residences, John Sullivan, Director of City ofKodiak Public Works says this Iast
occurred in 1995.
The wetlands and hiliside prpbably play an irnportant role in encouraging or preventing
flooding on a more regular basis. The wetland acts as a sponge soaking up and holding
water while the hiliside, though channeling water toward SeliefLane, is vegetated also
holding back water. The removal of vegetation both from the hillside and the wetlan4 will
encourage more water to flow into the Selief Land drainage because vegetation removal
reduces the abs�rption capability of these areas.
The group is asking for a rnore protected status for the area both in terms of making it
hands offfrom development but goes fiirther asking that 4 -wheelers not be allowed.
A. COMMTSSION ACTION
The conimission must investigate the foliowing
1. the merits ofthe request
- 2. define the boundaries ofthe area
3. initiate a rezone
4. hold public hearings and xnake a recornmendation to the Asseinbly.
8. STAFF SUPPORT
We bave provided a number ofmaps that identi1' the wetland areas as weB as the
topographic information that identifles steep siopes.
Thi information is provided itt the following maps:
1. USGS 1:25,000 Quad sheet. Kodiak(d-2) SE Alaska
2. Borough's orthographic (photo) maps
3, Proposed subdivision ofthe area.
These three sources are pinned up on the board. - - -
Staffhas the sarne concems as the Horseshoe Lake Community Council. itt fact, we
have participated itt committee called THE SELIEF LANE TASK FORCE that was
created to address the flooding that occurr�d along SeliefLane during high ram events.
These are certainly sensitive lands, ADF&G haveidentified the SeliefLand ditch as an
anadromous fish s ream. The area has a lilgh watertable. The drainage ditch along Selief -
drains a largewatershed. There is a bone -a -fide need toretain these lands into some sort
of public land classiflcation. At issue is how much and where. Most of the sensitive lands
are owned by the public, but there is private land itt the area. Should these be included as
sensitive lands?
111. BEAVER LAKE SUBD1VISION
This conceptual subdivision design is before t he comniission because the issue arose
during the joint AssemblylP&Z last fall. It is a portion of a larger subdivision that was
proposed by the Borough in 1984.
The Borough is pursuing this portion ofthe original subdivision because ofthe growth of
the neighborhood, the development ofthe Safeway node ofbusiness development, the
presence of water and sewer utilities. It is also being renewed because ofthe physical
damage this parcel has received (thee and four wheeler damage, unlawfiul tree removal,
and garbage dumping).
The BorougW s proposal is a combination residential / public retention area. The
development would allow for developrnent but dedicate some ofthe money tqqpnstnict
improvements (at this titne a bike trail around the south side ofthe lake):
Development here is elose to shopping, restaurants and banking. It is located on a paved
street that is served with power and water and sewer. Without sounding t�o much like a
real estate agent, it is desirable property that can set a development trend of having
irnprovements but also providing amenities to the neighborhood.
COMMISSION ACTION
A. Discuss merits ofthe subdiviion
B. Direct stafi'to pursue disposal action and/or subdivision design.

natural groundwater recbarge areas; and
2. Conditional uses in estuaries, tideflats, and wetlands must assure water flow, natural
circulation patterns, and adequate nutrient and oxygen levels.
C. Although a particutar conditional use may constitute a minor change, the cunuilative effect
of numerous piecemeal changes can result in a major irnpairment of the environment. The
particiilar site for whicli a conditional use applicatiou is made will 1e evaluated with the
recognition that it may be part af a comptece and interrelated environmental area, (Ord. 89-04-0

hands offfrom development but goes fbrther asking that 4 -wheelers not be allowed.
A. COMMISSION ACTION
The commission must irivestigate the foliowing
1. the merits ofthe request
2. define the boirndaries ofthe area
3, initiate a rezone
4. hold public hearings and make a recommendation to the Assernbly.
B. STAFF STJPPORT
We have provided a number ofmaps that identi& the wetland areas as well as the
topographic information that identifies steep siopes.
This information is provided iri the following maps:
1. USGS 1:25,000 Quad sheet, Kodiak (d-2) SE A!aska
2. Borough's orthographiv (photo) maps
3. Proposed subdivision ofthe area.
These three sources are pirmed up on the board.
Staif has the same concerns as the Horseshoe Lake Cornmunity Council. In fkct, we
have participated in committee called THIE SELIEF LANE TASK FORCE that was
created to address the flooding that occurred along SeliefLane during high raiii events.
These are certainly sensitive lands, ADF&G have ideriti{ied the SeliefLand ditch as an
anadrornous fish stream . The area has a high water tab!e. The drainage ditch along Selief
drains a large watershed, There is a bone -a -fide need to retain these lands into some sort
ofpublic land classification. At issue is how much and where. Most ofthe sensitive Jands
are owned by the public, but there is private land in the area. Should these be included as
sensitive lands?
11!. BEAVER LAKE SUBDWISION
This conceptual subdivision design is before t he commissiori because the issue arose
duririg the joint AssemblyfP&Z last falL It is a portion of a Iarger subdivision that was
proposed by the Borough in 1984.
The Borough is pursaing this portion ofthe original subdivision because ofthe growth of
the neighborhood, the development ofthe Safeway node ofbusiness devetopment, the
presence of water and sewer utilities. It is also being renewed because ofthe physical
damage this parcel has received (three and four wheeler damage, unlawfiul tree removal,
and garbage dumping).
The Borough's proposal is a cornbination residential / pubtic retention area. The
development would allow for deveiopment but dedicate some ofthe money toonstruct
irnprovernents (at this time a bike trail around the south side ofthe lake).
.Devetopment here is etose to shopping, restaurants and banking. 11 is located on a paved
Street that is served with power and water and sewer. Without sounding too much like a
real estate agent, it is desirable property that can set a devetopment trend of having
improvernents but also providing arnenities to the neighborhood.
COMMISSION ACTION
A, Discuss merits of the subdivision
B. Direct staff'to pursue disposal action and/or subdivisiori design.

Corrimunity Developnent Departinent0
Item for the Septexuber 5, 1985 Assembly Meeting
Request to rezone the "Lakeside SubcUvision Area°
The request for the rezoning af the Lakeside Subdivis±on area originated from
two sources: a request by the property owner Ithe Kocliak Island Borough) and
a motion, of the Planning and Zoning Conunission.
The Kodiak Island Borcugh Planning and Zoning Comrnission at their meeting on
August 21, 1985 rnade a motion recommending that thls area be rezoned.
Reconunendation
The Kodiak Island Borough Planning and Zoning Comnission moved to reconrnend
that the Xodiak Island Borough Assenibly rezone:
Lots 2 through 9 and 1]. through 19, Biock 2, Lakeside Subdivision revised
prellninary plat (S-84-016 revised April 22, 1985) frorn I --Industrial to

change or amendinent regardless of the manner in which such chane is initiated
and such report shall find:
10. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning:

See presentation map.
11. Comprehensive Plan: The 1968 Comprehensive Plan identifies this area as
public and open space. A sinall portion af the area lying north of the
Municipal Airport is shc,wn as light industrial.
12. Applicable Regu1ations The foliowing sections ef Title 17 (Zoning) of
the Borough Code are applicable to this request:
Ctzapter 17.72 Piinendments anc3 Changes. Section 17.72.030 Manner of
Initiation. Changes in this title may be initiated by 3. The Plannirl9
and Con-inission upon its own motion and C. By petition of one or more
owters of property within an area proposed to be rezoned.
COM'1ENTS:
This rezone recjuest originates from two sources: a request by the property
owner (Kodiak Island Borough) and a motion of the Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion. The requests by the property owrier and CQIUInISSIQB are different fer 27
J.ots (Lots 2 through 28, Block 4) in Lakeside Subdivision First Addition. The
?lanning Commission motion on this rezone requested PI.--Ptthlic Use Lands
zoning for these lots. The application from the owner requested the
R1--Single-faxnily Residential zone for these lots. A portion of the proposed
rezone area along Beaver Lake has recently received preliminary subdivision
approval (Lakeside Subdivision and Lakeside Stthdivision First Addition) It
should be noted that this rezone request is totaily independent of the two
subdivision cases.
Issues to be addressed in this rezone include conformance with the comprehen-
sive plan, cornpatibility with existing and potential land uses, separation of
incoxnpatible land uses, an6 traffic impacts and adequate access.
Conprehens ive Plan
The 1968 comprehensive plan identifies the rnajority of this area as public and
open space and a snall portion north of the Municipal Airport as light indus-
trial. The requested Public Use Lands, R1 and R2 zones are essentially
consistent with the cornprehensive plan. More than 60 percent of the rezone
area is proposed for Public Use Lands, and these areas generaily have steep
siopes or wetland/uiarshy conditions that are not suitable for other types of
development. The areas proposed for residential zoning districts generaily
have gentle siopes, are covered predominantly with spruce trees, and appear to
be well drained.
Compatibility with Existing and Potential Land Uses
The proposed zoning classifications represent a traditional hierarchy of
zoning districts which should lead to development that 15 compatible with
Case No. 85-052 August 21, 1985
existing larid uses in the area. The arrangement f the requested. districts
should a].so result in cempatible development within the rezone area. This is
acconplishecl through the use of buffer strips, zoned Public Use Lands, that
are located between the zoning districts that perinit differing intensities Qf
lanci use.
For example, a greenbelt area zoned PL is proposed between those areas
currently zoned Industrial and all proposed residentia]. areas. Additional
separation of industrial. and residential classitications is providecl in some
areas by a combination of a greenbelt artd adjacent road right-of-way. The
proposed biock af R2 zoning ±5 separated froro proposed Ri areas by Beaver Lake
Loop. Lastly, the land uses permitted under R1 and R2 residential zoning
along the extension ef Selief Jane will be compatible with the existing
sangle-fanily residentiai uses a].ong this road.
Separation of Incompatible Land tjses
As identified above, the proposed zoning classifications provide adequate
separation of incompatible land uses (residential and industrial) through
provision of greenbelt areas ZQned Public Use Lands. Additional separation is
provided in some areas by a combination of greenbelts arid road rights-of-way.
Traffic Impacts
The largest irnpact resulting from this rezone is ].ikely to be traffic. Any
development of this area wili. result in increased traffic on the surrounding
road. system. At present, a].]. traffic generated along Selief Lane must use
Thorsheizn or Birch streets to reacb the nearest arterial road (Mill Bay).
With the extension ef Selief Lane to Von Scheele Way, an additional out].et to
Mill Bay Road will be avai].able for land uses within the rezone area and for
existing residences along Selief Lane. As a result, the overall traffic flow
situation should be iniproved with the Selief Lar*e extension. This fact was
even recognized in the 1968 Comprehensive Plan, which projected a Selief Lane
extension to Von Scheele Way. Therefore, the land uses permitted under the
proposed rezoning should not have adverse traffic inpacts on the surrounding
road system or land uses.
Sumrnary
Eva].uation of the poter*tial impacts of this rezone leads to the conclusion
that the requested zoning classifications are consistent with the comprehen-
sive plan, appropriate for the ].and in question, wil]. result in development
that is conipatible with existiny development in the surrounding area, wil].
provide for adequate buffers and separaticn of incompatible land uses, and
wil]. not result in athrerse traffic inipacts.
Regarding Lots 2 through 28, Biock 4, Lakeside Subdivision First Addition, the
question of which requested zoning district (Ri or PL) is the inost appropriate
is debatable. The physical characteristics of the lots, their location, and
relationship to surrounding proposed zoning districts wou].d indicate that
either reguested zone is appropriate. As the lots are designed and have
received preliminary plat approvai. for residentia]. developinent, the staff
recoimnendation for rezoning these lots is to R1--Single-fainily Residential.

ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
Planning and Zoning Commissioners present were Jerrol Eriend,
C].arence Selig, and Pat Szabo.
1. fforeshoe Lake RezonQ
Kathy Colwefl, president of the iorseshoe Lake Homeowx2ers
Associaticn, referred to her letter and map attachecl to the agenda
that showed the topography and character of the land to a use
rather than RR1-residential. A petition erom the residents in the
neighborh�od showed their support for a rezone.. She showed siides
of the property, especially where 4 -wheeler activity was damaging
the area, particu].arly in the streazn areas.
She noted that: a) a recent study showed hiliside sediments were
unstable because of water --would not support residences; b) .vital
part of watershed area; c) streams carry saimon; and d) water towl.
The biock of land does not lend jtself tc, resiclences.
The Association wants to put up a fence and educate people in that
the area was special. Changing the b].ock would doom fforseshoe Lake
and alsa would cause serious flooding.
Mayor Selby agreed the area was a wetlands with steep areas that
were not conducive to residential. Re suggested including the area
froxn the o].d dam to over the ridge line and front side of Beaver
Lake as a buffer around the lake but to aflow the area stubbed out
to be completed.

After discussion, it was remanded to the Commission for further
review.
Dear Refuge
Jay Ballenger, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and Brad Meiklejohn,
Alaska representative for Conservation Fund were present.
The debate was to give the Commission and Assembly a common
knowledge about the foreclosed parcels. The Assembly would be ab].e
to direct the Coinmission toward their desires.
Regarding the archeological sites, Ballenger sald if there were in
the bear refuge, Rick Knecht, archeologist, could get a permit to
dig there.
Ballenger's main interest was in protecting pub].ic resources and
access. Some of the ].ands were now in a negotiating phase to come
back to the Refuge. The interest was in lands near those and land
with public access and resources. -
•He pointed out Amok Island never was in the Refuge. There was no
interest in the land at Larsen Bay or the head of Larsen Bay,
Carlsen Point, and West of Amok Is],and from Parks north. Re
pointed out Car]sen Point was rich in archeological sites and was
really good anchorage and, therefore, it might be we].1 the borough
retains those parcels.
He noted that it was better if people congregated in one to leave
room in the Refuge for the bears rather than people sparsely
located within the Refuge.
Neflc].ejobn saw the Conservation Fund's ro].e to appease all parties
in purchasing properties for fair narket va].ue and give the Refuge
first choice of purchase.
After considerable discussion, Friend thought the Conunission has
some direction in moving ahead and agreed that, with this nieeting,
confusion would be avoided when it comes before the Assembly. He
addedit wou].d help in malcing a decision and recommendation. Staff
agreed.
The Assembly countered they wanted an entirely objective
description arid point of view without a given- the Refuge would get
parcels. Matrixing and scoring the parcels for Refuge, Borough, or
public sai.e was suggested, including Borough retention of some
sites for public access to the Refuge.
It was noted that if the Borough retained praperty, the taxes were
never co].]ected and the previous owner does not receive tha value.
Ther�fore, retaining access easements that would stil]. allow the
sale would be considered.

To: Joint Meeti )f Kodiak Jsland Borough Assemt: }embets and
Planning anu Zoning Commissioners
From: Horseshoe Lake Community Association Board 01 Directors
Date: September 14, 1995
Request: The Kodiak tsland Borough Assembly initiate a rezone 01 Tract A, US
Survey 2538A, from RR1 residential to Natural Use.
Tract A, US Survey 2538A, lies within a very unique neighborhood. Residential
densities vary from high to Iow while surrounding lands still retain natural beauty. Two
beliefs prompt us to step forward and address Tract A: (1) Healthy residentiat living
includes beauty in the natural environment; (2) Protecting Iocal natural resources,
such as these wet!ands, is an inherent responsibility of residents and government
bodies.
One duty 01 our organization is to represent Iocal issues It is our common
practice to circulate petitions for petitioning draws our neighbors into the process and
gives validity to the issue. A C0 01 the support Ietter circulated to residerits, the
petition, and a map showing the petitioned area have been delivered.
Our neighborhood area has a lot of history, including annual episodes of
flooding, a heavily traveled road, and connecting lakes and streams. A current project
funded joint!y by the City Council and Borough Assembly to study Iocation 01 the
stream is near finalization.
Maps and slides will presenting an understanding of Tract A.
We believe there are competling reasons to rezone Tract A to Natural Use: (1)
The hiliside sediments were recently measured to be high in water content and
potentialty unstable, discouraging residential development; (2) The Iowlarid portion,
approximately 375 ft. wide and 1700 ft. in Iength consists of wetlands and streams, an
important component of the watershed area; (3) Streams cut through this area; saimon
trye migrate and eventually return to Mill Bay Beach; (4) Waterfowl and other wildlife
nest in Tract A.
If the Borough initiates and grants this rezone request the I -!LCA has the
foliowing intent:
Short term:
Long term:
Educate the public regarding the importance of this natural habitat.
Purchase and post signs marking this area as naturat habitat
preservation.
Discover methods to eliminate oft -road vehicles. from entering
the north end.
Work with different groups/agencies to foster increased presence
of waterfowl.
Work to revive this area with remaining connecting takes.
Thank you very much!

THE PL,AN
The Lakeside Subdlvisionlsafeway sub -area is located iri a developing part of
the Kodlak urban area. Central to the area are the Safeway store and the
proposed Mill Bay Plaza shopping center. In addltion, new "retail"
developments in the area inelude a car wa.sh, bank, and fast food restaurant.
Along the arterial serving the area (Mill Bay Road), a rnmTher of new business
buildlngs have been developed, most notably, shops devetoped in support of
the comrnercial fishing industxy.
The area also contalns a signiftcant built-up feature, the Kodiak Municipal
alrport, which dominates the center of the area and ftnpacts aiid influences
the development that takes place around it. Moving away from the
developing commereial areas, the area is characterized by some hlstorical
industrlal uses; the municipal airport, the metais dump, and the City's
impound yard, as well as some more recent industrial uses of the area;. crab
pot storage and fabrication, and the Boroughs anlmal control facility. A
signiflcant portion of the piannlng area off the Mill Bay arterial has also been
developed for residentlal use. The density of thls residenUal development
varies from approxirnately one (1) dwelling unit per acre to ten (10) dweulng
units per acre. A portiorz of the area is also currentiy dedlcated to open space,
aithough in the past there has been movement to develop this property for
residenual use.
This plan has beerz developed with several policies itt mind. These polieles
are derived primaxily from the draft Kodiak Rc,ad System Comprehensive
PolIcy and Land Use PIan. They are:
Determine the nature and siting requirements of general Industilal
expansion that is compatible with the community;
Establish zoning dlstrlct boundaries aiong natural and artiflcial
boundaries that effectively buffer conflictlng land uses from each other;
Concentrate non-residentlal development downtown and itt other
strateglc locatlons, while limiting encroachment lnto residentlal areas;
Provide an adequate balance of land for the mix of uses that occur or
may be anticipated to occur in the cornznunity;
Llmlt the types of residential development permitted in downtown
Kodlak, andother commercial areas; and
Lakeside Subdlvlslonlsafcway Subarea Land Use Plan
October, 1991 Page luf 3
Identify and reserve land for future industrlal an4 commerclal
expanslon lncludlng gravel/shot rock resource extraction areas.
The land use plan for thls area includes the fouowing land use categorles;
general buslness, retall bustness, medium denslty residential, and apen
space. Each of these land use categories Is descrlbed later in the plan. As a
plaxrnlng tool, the land use plan provides a vision of how this area should look
In the future, but as conditlons In the comniunity change, so too should the
plan. The plan should be perlodically reviewed to determirxe its compatlbuity
wlth cornmunity needs and desires. The purpose of the plan Is also to provtde
a basis for the inevltable land use regulatlons that will be adopted to
implement It. These inelude zoning, subdlvlslon, and land dlsposal
regulatlons.
The general business category is intended as a land use categozy t.hat permits
a wide variety of intenslve business land uses. These uses run the gamut
from all those uses ldentifled in the current buslness zoning district, with the
exception of residentlal types of uses (e.g. hotels, apartments, ete.) to
wholesale and warehouse types of land uses. The purpose of this land use
category is to permit a wide range of buslness uses that are part of the
prlmary and seconclary economic sectors of the region. This land use
category does not inelude, In additlon to resldentlal uses, land uses that are
tradltionally considered "heavy industr!al." For exatnple, bulk fuel plants,
batch plants, seafood processlng plants, ete. would not be permitted. The
following types af "conditlonally permitted" uses are envisloned in thls land
use category: quarters for securlty personnel and lnstltutional uses. With the
wide variety of land uses envisloned in this area, and their lntensity,
conslderation In lmplementlng the plan must be given to screenlng the uses
from public transportation routes and non -similar adjacent land uses. It Is
important to acknowledge that the Kodlak Munlclpal Airport is currentiy a
central feature of the general business area ldentlfled in this plan. The
Kodak Munlcipal Airport (landing strip and Lffly Lake) wIll continue to be a
grand.fathered use until adequate replacement factilties are established.
The retail buslness categoxy Is intended as a land use category that includes a
wide range of retail and sen'ice businesses. Thls land use category Is
centered arotmd the newly developing SafewaylMilt Bay Plaza area. These
types af land ases are constdered less lntenslve from, a land use perspective,
but often requlre more parklng than the uses Identified for the general
buslness areas. Therefore, In lrnplementhig thls pian, consideration must be
given to the impact of the parking areas on adjaeent land uses and publie
transportatlon routes. Conslderation will be given to the establishnient of

high density (more than twelve (12) dwelling units/acre) residential uses
(under certaln conditions) in this area.
Meclium density resiclential land use has generaily been deflned in the Kodiak
Road System Comprehensive Policy and Land Use Plan as six (6) to twelve
(12) dwelling units per acre. The majority of the existing residential land uses
in the area are conslstent with this land use category. On a practical level,
there is aix economic efflciency in provid!ng public services to this density of
residential uses that is not achleved at lower density levels. For comparative
purposes, six (6) dweffing units per acre is equivalent to six (6) single family
dwellings, each on aix approximately 7,200 square foot lot. Innovative,
residential subdivision design. clustering for exaxnple, can reduce negative
impacts of medium denslty residential development on the cornmunity and
nelghborhood.
Open space has been defined as "any parcel or area of land or water
essentiaUy unimproved ancl set aside, dedlcated or reserved for public or
private use or enjoyment, or for the use and enJoyment of owners and
occupants of land adjoining or neighboring such open space" (The Illustrated
Book of Development Deflnitions). In any area where the government already
has the luxury of owning land, conslderatlon needs to be given to declicatlng a
pox -tion of that land for open space purposes. As noted in the definiion
above, open space is provided itt thls plan for the use and enjoyment of the
public. In developed areas of the community such as thls, open space is even
more important because of the value It adds to the community. Itt this plan,
