Section 3: The findings of the Kodiak Island Borough Planning and Zoning Commission are
hereby confirmed as follows:
17.72.020 A. Findings as to the Need and Justification for a Change or Amendment.
A rezone from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One is needed to allow for the future
disposal of the rezone area. This land was designated surplus to the public' s need by the Kodiak
Island Borough Assembly (Resolution 2001 -02). The RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district

permits uses and structures that are consistent with the predominant land use designation in the
1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan and which are compatible with existing residential
developments in the surrounding area. The PL- Public Use Land zoning district is intended only for
lands that are publicly owned and the district is not compatible with private land ownership.
17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment would have on the
Objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed rezone area was previously designated part of a School Reserve for the Womens
Bay Community. This was prior to the improvements made to Peterson Elementary School near
the U.S. Coast Guard Base. State of Alaska Standards require a 10 acre minimum area for
elementary schools. The remaining School Reserve after this rezone will be 12 acres. The 1982
Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan is generic in nature. Those lands, which are not designated
for Commercial, Industrial or Public use, are intended to be used for Rural Residential purposes.
17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment would have on the Objectives of
the Comprehensive Plan.
Section 4: This rezone shall become effective when the following conditions has been met:
ATTEST:
The exterior boundary of the rezone area, as described on the preliminary plat dated
December 5, 2000, shall be platted prior to this rezone becoming effective.
