Seward Planning and Zoning Commission
Resolution No. 2006-01
Page 3 of5
Seward 2020 Comprehensive Plan (2005)
The Comprehensive Plan promotes commercial development within the city of Seward in
accordance with community values. Section 3.3.1.1 supports a range of housing choices that
meet the needs of people in various income and age groups (page 22). Section 2.2, Community
Values, Community Appearance encourages landscaping "Continue to require landscaping plans
for conditional use permits as feasible (page 11)." Section 2.2, Community Values, Economic
Base, "Promote expansion and development oflocal entrepreneurial businesses (page 16)."
Strate2:ic Plan (1999)
The Strategic Plan recommends encouraging citizens as well as the City, to take an active role in
beautifying the community by planting trees, shrubs and wildflowers (page 15). Harbor
merchants and the City have been working on landscaping projects to beautify the harbor and
surrounding area.
D. Public Services andfacilities are adequate to serve the proposed use.
Finding: Water, sewer, telephone and electrical service are available to the
property, as well as adequate emergency services. Garbage dumpsters are available
onsite. Public utility easements are onsite and there shall not be any encroachments,
above or below ground, in the utility easements.
E. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare.
Finding: There is an identified need for seasonal housing in Seward, particularly for
low income employees.
A fire access route with ingress/egress points along Leirer Road and Port A venue will be
needed. An additional fire hydrant along Leirer Road will be needed.
Providing adequate parking for the employees will mitigate parking concerns in the area.
Runoff from storm water and snow melt can be mitigated by having a landscape plan
which incorporates retention and a slower rate of discharge offsite.
No building, except a single family residential, are allowed to be constructed across lot
lines, (SCC 12.01.030). A platting action vacating the interior lot line of Lot 4 and Lot 5,
Block 3, Leirer Industrial Subdivision will need to be done in order to construct the
bunkhouse.
Use of the bunkhouse will facilitate the removal of camper shells and other non-
permanent structures from ''tent city".
F. Any and all specific conditions deemed necessary by the commission to fulfill the
above-mentioned conditions shall be met by the applicant. These may include but are
not limited to measures relative to access, screening, site development, building design,
operation of the use and other similar aspects related to the proposed use.
