WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended that the Kodiak

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE ASSEMBLY OF THE KODIAK ISLAND
BOROUGH THAT:
Section 1: This ordinance is not of general application and shall not be codified.
Section 2:
Section 3:
Tract A and Lot 7, Industrial Park Subdivision, are hereby rezoned from
I- Industrial to RB- Retail Business.
The findings of fact of the Kodiak Island Borough Planning and Zoning
Commission in recommending the approval of this rezone are hereby
confirmed as follows:
17.72.020.A. Findings as the Need and Justification for a Change or Amendment.
A rezone of Lot 7 and Tract A from I- Industrial to RB- Retail Business is needed and
justified because it is consistent with the Lakeside Subdivision /Safeway Subarea Plan
and compatible with the area's evolving development trend over the past decade.
That trend has seen the establishment of nearby uses specifically permitted in the RB-
Retail Business zoning district such as a retail grocery store /shopping center,

restaurants, service station, retail and service stores, and a park /playground. These
have helped to realize the area's potential as a secondary commercial center for the
City of Kodiak.
The rezone of these two parcels, would allow for proposed uses such as a skating
rink, motel and other retail and service shops which are listed as permitted principal
uses in the zoning district; is compatible with existing uses; and is consistent with the
description and intent of the RB - Retail Business Zoning District. The two parcels are
located on the periphery of residential areas and near the intersection of an arterial
and a collector street.
17 72.020 B Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment would have
on the Ohjective.s of the Comprehensive Plan.
A change in zoning from I - Industrial to RB - Retail Business will have the effect of
permitting development that is specifically consistent with the Lakeside
Subdivision /Safeway Subarea Plan, incorporated as an element of the Kodiak Island
Borough Comprehensive Plan in 1991. The plan map in the Subarea Plan identifies
the rezone area as Retail Business.
This rezone will preclude future intensive industrial development that might conflict
with nearby existing uses, including commercial and retail, residential, and
park /playground, that have been established as a result of development trends in the
area over the past decade.
