VOTE ON MOTION TO APPROVE AS CORRECTED MOTION CARRIED • Unanimous voice vote REGULAR MEETING ROLL CALL APPROVAL OF AGENDA APPROVAL OF MINUTES Volume XXI Page 254 AWARDS AND PRESENTATIONS None. CITIZENS' COMMENTS A. Agenda Items Not Scheduled For Public Hearing Kristin Stahl - Johnsen spoke to Contract No. 96 -43. She stated she volunteered on the Cook Inlet Regional Citizens Advisory Council for six years, and she worked diligently to protect Kodiak from future oil spills. She noted the high probability of another oil spill with a community that was not prepared. She contended that Kodiak's eco system was very important and she wrote a proposal to secure funding for the Sensitive Areas Identification Project and she needed Borough endorsement. She presented the proposal to Linda Freed but Mayor Selby determined the document should go out for bid. She felt betrayed because the Borough decided to go with an off - island company. She contended that other requests for proposal were similar to hers, but the work and projects were increased. She asked the Assembly to postpone the contract. She remained to answer questions. Bruce Schactler regarded Ms. Stahl- Johnson as an asset to the community. He agreed with her comments. He felt an off - island firm would ask questions that would not produce the needed information. He thought Ms. Stahl- Johnson's desire was to produce a decent product. He asked that the contract be postponed. Virginia Adams telephoned to say she believed in Ms. Stahl- Johnson and considered her research and local knowledge an asset. She did not want the contract awarded outside of Kodiak. B. Items Other Than Those Appearing on the Agenda None. Clarence Selig, Planning and Zoning Commissioner, began to report on the response to public hearing notices that were mailed to property owners about gear storage violations. Because the Assembly would sit as a quasi- judicial board during the Board of Adjustment to hear on gear storage violations, Presiding Officer Stevens asked Commissioner Selig to hold his comments until the end of the meeting. Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 AWARDS AND PRESENTATION^ CITIZENS' COMMENTS COMMITTEE REPORTS COMMITTEE REPORTS Volume XXI Page 255 Assemblymember McFarland reported that the Hospital Advisory Board received information on the hospital's positive financial picture. He thanked hospital administrator, Ed Myers, for an excellent job and wished him a fond farewell. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT Presiding Officer Stevens recessed the regular meeting and convened the Board of Adjustment. A. An Appeal of the Planning and Zoning Commission's decision on ordering the removal of APPEAL fishing gear, stored on RR- 1(Rural Residential One) zoned property without a owner - occupied residence on the property at Lot 3, Block 1, Monashka Bay Subdivision, 109 Monashka Circle. (Appellant: Mike Haggren). Presiding Officer Stevens announced that 67 appeal hearing notices were mailed. One was returned favoring the granting of the appeal; three were returned opposing the granting of the appeal, and all would be read into the record. He explained that the assembly, sitting as the Board of Adjustment, was a quasi - judicial board that would decide the appeal upon the appeal record, the written and oral argument, and the testimony and evidence presented on the appeal. Presiding Officer Stevens read the names of those who submitted written or oral testimony during public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission or who submitted written testimony to the Board of Adjustment as a result of the appeal notice as follows: Cathy Cordry Dennis Gretsch Jim McCullough David Prokopowich Suzie Byersdorfer Colleen Helligso "Residents of Three Lu Doctermann Lisa Marcanto Joseph Pohl Mark White Christine Bushell Sisters Way" Presiding Officer Stevens explained the argument as follows: 1. Borough staff, including Commission representative - 10 minutes. 2. Appellant (Mike Haggren) - 10 minutes 3. Private persons 2unDortinq the appeal - 10 minutes each. Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 order of oral BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT MIKE HAGGREN Volume XXI Page 256 4. Private persons opposing the appeal - 10 minutes each. 5. Appellant (Mike Haggren) - 10 minutes Bob Scholze, Community Development Department associate planner, explained that gear storage in residential areas was only allowed when the property was owner- occupied. He noted the Commission explored options to allow gear storage as a conditional use permit (CUP). Mr. Scholze read the findings -of -fact in support of the Commission's decision as follows: "1. Extending the enforcement suspension to permit outdoor storage of commercial fishing gear in the RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district sets a precedent that encourages other land owners to attempt to store their commercial fishing gear on non -owner occupied residential lots. 2. Contrary to the description and intent of the RR1 zoning district stated in KIBC 17.17.010 and the residential objectives of the Monashka Bay Comprehensive Plan, unrestricted storage of commercial fishing gear in the RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district, and on this lot in particular, could adversely impact the residential character of the neighborhood and the larger community. Commercial fishing gear storage is currently required to be associated with an owner - occupied dwelling in the RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district in order to ensure that it does not become an attractive nuisance or a health hazard." Mike Haggren, appellant, said the lack of space to store gear was a Borough -wide problem that needed to be resolved. He said eight lots near his property were in violation but there was no other place to store the gear. He said he did not renew his renter's contract because of the gear storage question. He said his property had no noise or rats and contended that property owners should have the right to do what they want on their land. Deputy Clerk Nielsen read a letter from Christine Bushell in support of the appeal. J,u Dochtermann, a neighbor of Mr. Haggren, suggested the Borough change the zoning laws and grandfather those who currently stored gear on non -owner occupied property or provide land on Near Island for storage. Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 Volume XXI Page 257 Christine Bushell saw no problem with storing gear on private property. She saw no danger because her daughter played near gear but she knew to stay away from the gear. She contended that Kodiak, as a fishing community, needed a solution to the problem. Deputy Clerk Nielsen read letters from Lisa Marcato, Susan Byersdorfer, and Colleen Helligso, opposing the appeal. Cathy Cordry regarded Mr. Haggren and Mr. Dochtermann as pillars of the community. She felt fishing was the main reason people lived in Kodiak and fishermen needed support but not special treatment. She wanted decisions made that followed the law. Mike Haggren agreed with Ms. Cordry's comments. He wanted land opened for gear storage. He stored gear near the Buskin River until there were problems with the Coast Guard. He said many people had the same storage problem. He urged the Assembly to grant the appeal and not enforce gear removal until there was time to study the issue. JOHNSON, moved to uphold the seconded by McFARLAND Planning and Zoning Commission's decision on ordering the removal of fishing gear, stored on RR- 1(Rural Residential One) zoned property without a owner - occupied residence on the property at Lot 3, Block 1, Monashka Bay Subdivision, 109 Monashka Circle. (Appellant: Mike Haggren). At Assemblymember Milligan's question, Mr. Scholze said that gear stored in a warehouse was not legal without owner- occupancy. In response to Assemblymember Heinrichs, Mr. Scholze said Mr. Haggren's grandfathered rights were lost when he moved from the property. At Assemblymember McFarland's inquiry, Mr. Scholze noted that the code dictated that zoning be actively enforced. Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 Volume XXI Page 258 Assemblymember Johnson thought the Borough should not enforce the code until gear storage property was found. Assemblymember Hancock felt gear storage near the Buskin River was a short -term solution and a long- term solution was needed. Assemblymember Milligan felt the Borough had latitude to suspend enforcement until a solution was found. McFARLAND, seconded by JOHNSON moved to amend the motion by adding as the last sentence the words: "but suspend enforcement for one year." Assemblymember McFarland contended that gear storage was a borough -wide problem that needed resolution. Assemblymember Johnson thought borough staff could be instructed to find a solution. Assemblymember Milligan felt a one -year suspension would assist those who had a vested interest. HEINRICHS, seconded by McFARLAND moved to convene into executive session to deliberate the appeal of Mike Haggren of the decision of the Planning & Zoning Commission. Assemblymember Heinrichs thought there was a need to discuss legal implications. Assemblymember McFarland felt legal issues could be discussed in a later executive session. Assemblymember Hancock thought fishermen and business owners should work together to find a solution. VOTE ON MOTION TO CONVENE INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION Ayes: Heinrichs Noes: MOTION FAILED 1 Aye, 6 Noes Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 Hancock, Johnson, McFarland, Milligan, Burt, Stevens Volume XXI Page 259 Mayor Selby suggested directing the City and /or Borough to find storage space.

An appeal to superior court shall be heard solely on the record before the Board of Adjustment. The appeal procedure shall be governed by the rules set forth in part six of the Rules of Appellate Procedure for the State of Alaska. Presiding Officer Stevens adjourned the Board of Adjustment. After a ten minute recess at 9:35 p.m., Presiding Officer Stevens reconvened the Board of Adjustment. B. An Appeal of the Planning and Zoning DANIEL OLSEF Commission's decision on ordering the removal of APPEAL commercial fishing gear stored on a vacant lot in the RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district and a request to allow the continued storage of the commercial fishing gear on the property at Lot 11, Block 3, Russian Creek Alaska Subdivision, 12108 Noch Drive. (Appellant: Daniel Olsen). Presiding Officer Stevens announced that 31 appeal hearing notices were mailed. Two were returned favoring the granting of the appeal; none were returned opposing the granting of the appeal, and all would be read into the record. Presiding Officer Stevens explained that the assembly, sitting as the Board of Adjustment, was a quasi - judicial board that decides the appeal upon the appeal record, the written and oral argument, and the testimony and evidence presented on the appeal. Presiding Officer Stevens read the names of those who submitted written or oral testimony before the Planning and Zoning Commission during public hearing and submitted written testimony to the Board of Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 Volume XXI Page 261 Adjustment as a result of the appeal notice as follows: Richard Yucker Peter N. Allan Cathy Cordry Ron Jolin Samuel & Joy Comstock Linda E. Hinson Mary Ann Hickey Remie Murray Pam Rummell Presiding Officer Stevens explained the order of oral appeal as follows: 1. Borough staff, including Commission representative - 10 minutes 2. Appellant (Daniel Olsen) - 10 minutes 3. Private persons supporting the appeal - 10 minutes each 4. Private persons opposing the appeal - 10 minutes each 5. Appellant (Daniel Olsen) - 10 minutes Bob Scholze noted that the removal of commercial fishing gear was a goal of the Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan. He said an appeal of the Plan in 1994 was denied. He read the Planning and Zoning Commission's findings -of -fact into the record. Daniel Olsen, appellant, wanted to continue storing gear on his property until other space was made available. He said his property was unique in that it was at the end of a road that abutted Borough land. He noted there was no complaint but Borough staff viewed his property on a different issue and the gear was found in violation. He thought to build a home on the property because the government could not dictate how many homes he could live in. Deputy Clerk Nielsen read letters in support of the appeal from Ron Jolin and Sam and Joy Comstock. MILLIGAN, seconded by BURT Regular Assembly Meeting September 19, 1996 moved to overturn the Planning and Zoning Commission's decision on ordering the removal of commercial fishing gear stored on a vacant lot in the RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district and a request to allow the continued storage of the commercial fishing gear on the property at Lot 11, Block 3, Russian Volume }III Page 262 When Assemblymember Milligan asked about enforcement was on a complaint basis only, Mr Scholze said no matter how the violation was determined, it had to be resolved. Assemblymember Milligan was concerned that the public had not voiced the complaint. He noted that neighbors spoke in defense of Mr. Olsen. Assemblymember Heinrichs felt the violation was identified and needed to be resolved. Assemblymember Hancock considered that the zoning policy was enforced specifically on a complaint basis and no complaint was filed. She thought the Assembly was treading on bad ground. Assemblymember McFarland felt that staff could not ignore violations no matter how they were found. He contended that health and safety was the issue. Mayor Selby stated there was a code violation and if the Assembly was making an exception, the code should be changed and a record made to determine findings - of -fact. He said enforcement was the policy. Assemblymember Hancock did not want to make an exception but she felt the violation should not have been before the Assembly from the first.
