He noted that February is Commissioner Recruitment Month, and encouraged interested residents to apply for P&Z. Meuninck also provided an update on the Comprehensive Plan. PUBLIC HEARINGS Resolution 2026-002 of the Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Seward Alaska, recommending City Council amend Seward City Code § 15.10.140 Definitions and § 15.10.226 Land Uses Allowed to incorporate regulations for a mobile health unit Motion (Charbonneau/Pemberton) Approve Resolution 2026-002 City Planner Courtney Bringhurst explained that this topic was discussed at the previous work session and involves the Seward Community Health Center's request to use a motorized van to provide routine, non -emergency health screenings and preventive care. She stated that staff recommends amending code to define a "mobile health unit" and also add it to the Land Use Table. Bringhurst explained that the proposed ordinance would establish definitions and regulations for both mobile medical units and mobile health units and allow mobile health units to operate outright in several zoning districts including: Office Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Harbor, Central Business, and Institutional. Notice of the public hearing being posted and published as required by law was noted and the public hearing was opened. Jilian Chapman introduced herself as the CEO of the Seward Community Health Center. She thanked the commission for the opportunity to speak at the work session and for considering the change. She noted that the mobile health unit has already been operating for a season and highlighted the need to ensure it meets community healthcare needs while being respectful of neighboring areas. She expressed appreciation for the way the ordinance is written, emphasizing that it supports not only current needs but also future community needs by allowing mobile healthcare services from a range of providers like mobile dentistry. No one else appeared and the public hearing was closed. Charbonneau noted a housekeeping change in the Whereas section should be made to replace the word "hospitals" with "healthcare providers" which is more standard and still encompasses hospitals.

ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 7:15 p.m. Jodi Kurtz Deputy City Clerk Brenan Hornseth Vice Chair 6 Planning and Zoning Agenda Statement Meeting Date: April 7, 2026 To: Planning and Zoning Commission Through: Daniel Meuninck, Community Development Director From: Courtney Bringhurst, Planner Agenda Item: Resolution 2026-003 of the Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Seward Alaska, granting a conditional use permit to Robert Williams and Travis Maurer for the construction of a seventeen -unit multi -family residential structure, including approval of a building height of up to forty- eight (48) feet, on Tract 5B-2, Forest Acres Subdivision, Seward Gateway Properties, located at 2405 Seward Highway, within an Auto Commercial (AC) zoning district Background and justification: Robert Williams and Travis Maurer have submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to develop a 17-unit multi -family residential project within the Auto Commercial (AC) zoning district. Multi -family housing is allowed in the AC district through the CUP process, which provides the City an opportunity to evaluate site -specific conditions, ensure compatibility with surrounding uses, and apply appropriate conditions to mitigate potential impacts. Additionally, pursuant to Seward City Code 15.10.220(B)(1), approval of the CUP would allow the developer to construct the multi -family residential building up to a height of 48 feet. Affordability and lack of housing diversity are widely recognized challenges within Seward's housing market. While year-round rental units and homes for sale are available, many of these options remain financially out of reach for local workers and families. High seasonal demand and a limited supply of moderately priced, long-term housing continue to place pressure on the community. In particular, there is a need for more "missing middle" housing, such as apartments and moderately sized multi -family developments, to provide attainable options for year-round residents. Much of Seward's existing housing stock consists of single-family homes, with comparatively fewer apartment -style units designed for long-term occupancy, especially those suitable for families or multi -person households of moderate income. The proposed seventeen -unit apartment building would help address this gap by adding more attainable housing options and increasing overall housing stock. The units are anticipated to be available for long-term rental and/or ownership, providing flexibility and expanding access to housing opportunities within the community. The applicants propose to construct a multi -family residential building with seventeen (17) dwelling units. The building will include: • Four (4) two -bedroom units • Four (4) three -bedroom units • Four (4) one -bedroom units • Five (5) studio units This configuration provides a range of housing options designed to accommodate individuals, couples, families with children, and multi -generational households. The project has the potential to: • Support local employers by increasing workforce housing availability. • Provide stable housing options for families with children through the inclusion of two- and three -bedroom units. • Offer smaller, more attainable units (studios and one -bedroom apartments) for individuals, seasonal workers transitioning to year-round residency, and seniors seeking downsized living arrangements. • Reduce pressure on the existing housing stock and help moderate upward pressure on rents driven by limited supply. The subject property is located adjacent to the Seward Highway, which is designed to accommodate higher traffic volumes. As a result, traffic generated by the development is expected to be absorbed by existing infrastructure and is not anticipated to significantly impact surrounding residential areas. The site is also bordered by a mix of municipal and non-residential uses, further supporting the compatibility of the proposed development. This proposal represents the first phase of a larger, multi -phase development anticipated by the applicant. Future phases may include additional housing units; however, each phase will be required to obtain a separate Conditional Use Permit and will be subject to review to ensure compliance with applicable code requirements and compatibility with surrounding uses. The CUP process ensures that the development is evaluated holistically, balancing the community's housing needs with compatibility considerations and the preservation of Seward's small-town character. The public notification process was complied with and the appropriate public hearing, as required by Seward City Code § 15.01.040. Regarding conditional uses, Seward city code § 15.10.320 states, "it is recognized that there are some uses which may be compatible with designated principal uses in specific zoning districts provided certain conditions are met. The conditional use permit procedure is intended to allow flexibility in the consideration of the impact of the proposed use on surrounding property, and the application of controls and safeguards to assure that the proposed use will be compatible with the surroundings. The commission shall permit this type of use if the conditions and requirements listed in this chapter (Title 15) are met." Prior to granting a conditional use permit, the Commission shall establish that the use satisfies the following conditions as listed in SCC §15.10.320(D): 1. The use is consistent with the purpose of this chapter and the purposes of the zoning district; 2. The value of the adjoining property will not be significantly impaired; 3. The proposed use is in harmony with the comprehensive plan; 4. Public services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use; 5. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare; 8 6. 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. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: Development Requirements: The proposed structure meets the Zoning Code Development Requirements (Table 15.10.220) for maximum lot coverage (50 percent) and required setbacks (10 feet front, 10 feet rear, 10 feet side adjacent to a street, and 5 feet side adjacent to a property line). The minimum required lot size for a 17-unit multi -family development is 24,600 square feet. Multifamily developments with three (3) or more units require a minimum of 9,000 square feet with an additional 1,200 square feet per unit of five (5) or more units. Seward City Code §15.10.220(B)(1) also allows building heights up to 48 feet through the CUP process when specific criteria are met, including location within the defined area and development as multi -family residential. The subject property meets the geographic and land use criteria outlined in the code. Surrounding Land Use: The subject property is directly adjacent to the City snow dump to the west, which is zoned Auto Commercial. Further west is a block of residential properties zoned Multi -Family Residential. To the north, across Dieckgraeff Road, is vacant land zoned Resource Management. To the east, across the Seward Highway, is the Seward Airport, which is zoned Industrial. To the south is a City municipal campground zoned Institutional, which is also the planned future site of the City fire station. A City park is located to the southwest of the subject property. Floodplain Status: According to the Kenai Peninsula Borough Floodplain Map, the property is located within a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). Additional permitting will be required prior to the construction of the 17-unit building. Utilities: Public services, including water, sewer, electric, and road access, will be available to adequately serve the proposed development, subject to required improvements through the subdivision agreement and building permit process. Adequate fire, police, and solid waste disposal services are available to the property. The city code also requires that every building or building site within the city must provide containers suitable for refuse collection (SCC 14.05). All containers shall be watertight with an animal -proof lid. Parking: According to City Code § 15.10.215, a multi -family dwelling is required to provide one (1) parking space per dwelling unit. The site plan and building plan show that 24 parking spaces will be provided, which exceeds that required 17 per city code. Parking spaces provided must be a minimum of 9ft wide and 18ft long, and ADA-compliant. Comprehensive and Strategic Plan Consistency Information .111 This legislation is consistent with (citation listed): Comprehensive Vol 1, Chapter 2.2.11 Plan: 9 • "Promote infill development by encouraging and promoting construction on vacant sites in areas of the city which are already established."

Recommendation The proposed use is permittable through the Conditional Use Permit process, which allows the Commission the opportunity to ensure that the use is consistent with the purpose of the zoning district and surrounding land uses, is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan, and will not be harmful to the public safety, health, or welfare. 10 Sponsored by: Applicant Public Hearing: April 7, 2026 CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2026-003 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA, GRANTING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ROBERT WILLIAMS AND TRAVIS MAURER FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SEVENTEEN - UNIT MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE, INCLUDING APPROVAL OF A BUILDING HEIGHT OF UP TO FORTY-EIGHT (48) FEET, ON TRACT 5B-2, FOREST ACRES SUBDIVISION, SEWARD GATEWAY PROPERTIES, LOCATED AT 2405 SEWARD HIGHWAY, WITHIN AN AUTO COMMERCIAL (AC) ZONING DISTRICT WHEREAS, Robert Williams and Travis Maurer have applied for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to construct multi -family housing within the Auto Commercial (AC) zoning district in the City of Seward, Alaska; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Seward City Code 15.10.220(B)(1), approval of the CUP would allow the developer to construct the multi -family residential building up to a height of 48 feet; and WHEREAS, a multi -family residential development is permitted within the AC zoning district through the CUP process, subject to review and approval to ensure compatibility with surrounding uses and compliance with applicable provisions of the Seward City Code; and WHEREAS, the applicants propose to construct a multi -family residential building with seventeen (17) units; and WHEREAS, the building will include four (4) three -bedroom units, four (4) two -bedroom units, four (4) one -bedroom units, and five (5) studio units; and WHEREAS, these seventeen units will result in a diverse mix of housing types intended to accommodate individuals, couples, families, and households of varying sizes; and WHEREAS, a goal of the Seward Comprehensive Plan is to expand opportunities for affordable, diverse, year-round housing and to support a range of housing choices that meet the needs of people in various income and age group; and WHEREAS, the City of Seward has a recognized need for affordable long-term housing, particularly "missing middle" housing such as apartments and multi -family units that serve working individuals and families; and WHEREAS, Seward City Code 15.10.320 allows the Commission to issue Conditional Use Permits for certain uses which may be compatible with designated principal uses in specific zoning districts provided certain requirements and conditions are met; and 11 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2026-003 Page 2 of 5 WHEREAS, the public notification process was complied with and the appropriate public hearing, as required by Seward City Code § 15.01.040. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA: Section 1. According to SCC 15.10.320 It is recognized that there are some uses which may be compatible with designated principal uses in specific zoning districts provided certain conditions are met. The conditional use permit procedure is intended to allow flexibility in the consideration of the impact of the proposed use on surrounding property, and the application of controls and safeguards to assure that the proposed use will be compatible with the surroundings. The commission shall permit this type of use if the conditions and requirements listed in this chapter are met. According to SCC 15.10.320.D., the Commission shall establish a finding that the use satisfies the following conditions prior to granting a conditional use permit: A. The use is consistent with the purpose of this chapter (the Seward Zoning Code) and the purposes of the zoning district. Finding: This condition has been met. According to the Land Use Allowed Table, § 15.10.226, a multi -family dwelling is allowed within the auto commercial (AC) zoning district with an approved conditional use permit. The AC zoning district is defined as "an area intended to accommodate highway -oriented commercial activities such as offices, certain institutional uses, and limited personal services and retail uses requiring substantial outdoor activity, traffic and parking, and which also serve the offices and nearby residential areas, and which do not materially detract from nearby residential areas." Seward City Code §15.10.220(B)(1) also allows building heights up to 48 feet through the CUP process when specific criteria are met, including location within the defined area and development as multi -family residential. The subject property meets the geographic criteria outlined in the code, and the proposed use is permitted within the AC zoning district through a CUP. The proposed building height is therefore allowable, subject to this approval. B. The value of adjoining property will not be significantly impaired. Finding: This condition has been met. The surrounding land uses include municipal and public -use properties (city snow dump, campground, airport, and vacant land). Due to the nature and separation of these uses, the proposed development is not expected to negatively impact adjoining property values. The project represents development of long -vacant land and is compatible with the surrounding area. C. The proposed use is in harmony with the Seward Comprehensive Plan. Finding: This condition has been met. The proposal is in harmony with the Seward 2030 Comprehensive Plan. 12 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2026-003 Page 3 of 5 Seward Comprehensive Plan (approved by Council, May 30, 2017) Plan statements that are in harmony with this application: Vol 1, Chapter 2.2.11 D. "Promote infill development by encouraging and promoting construction on vacant sites in areas of the city which are already established." Vol 1, Chapter 3.2.1.2 — "Expand the opportunity for affordable, diverse, year-round housing through appropriate land use regulations." Vol 1, Chapter 3.3.1.1 — "Support a range of housing choices that meeting the needs of people in various income and age groups." Vol 1, Chapter 3.3.1.2 — "Create incentives to provide land for housing development within the City of Seward." Vol 1, Chapter 3.9.1.1 — "Maintain Seward's small town, family -oriented character throughout the growth process." E. Public Services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use. Finding: This condition has been met. Public services, including water, sewer, electric, and road access, will be available to adequately serve the proposed development, subject to required improvements through the subdivision agreement and building permit process. Adequate fire, police, and solid waste disposal services are available to the property. The city code also requires that every building or building site within the city must provide containers suitable for refuse collection (SCC 14.05). All containers shall be watertight with an animal -proof lid. F. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare. Finding: The proposed development will be required to comply with all applicable local, state, and federal regulations, including the International Building Code and International Fire Code, ensuring that it will not be harmful to public safety, health, or welfare. The subject property is located adjacent to the Seward Highway, which is designed to accommodate higher traffic volumes. As a result, traffic generated by the development is expected to be absorbed by existing infrastructure and is not anticipated to significantly impact surrounding residential areas. Section 2. Any and all specific conditions deemed necessary by the Commission to fulfill the above -mentioned conditions shall be met by the applicant. Approval of the CUP shall be subject to the following conditions: 13 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2026-003 Page 4 of 5 1.

For any upgrades or connections to the water, sewer and/or electric utilities prior to a certificate of occupancy being issued, the applicant will work with the appropriate city departments. 3. Dwelling units within the development shall not be used as short-term rentals. For purposes of this condition, short-term rental shall mean the rental or lease of a dwelling unit for a period of less than thirty (30) consecutive days. 4.

A snow storage plan shall be submitted with the building permit and approved by the Public Works Director. 10. The applicant shall obtain all necessary state or federal permits, including any State Department of Transportation permits that may be required. 11. Per Seward City Code § 15.10.325(f). an approved CUP shall lapse six months from the date of approval if the use for which the permit was issued has not been implemented or a building permit obtained. The Commission may grant a six-month extension upon finding that circumstances have not changed sufficiently since the date of initial permit approval. 12. Modification of final approval of a conditional use permit may, upon application by the permittee, be modified by the Planning and Zoning Commission: a. When changed conditions cause the conditional use to no longer conform to the standards for its approval. b. To implement a different development plan conforming to the standards for its approval. c. The modification plan shall be subject to a public hearing and a filing fee set by City Council Resolution. Section 3. The Planning and Zoning Commission finds that the proposed use, subject to the above conditions satisfies the criteria for granting a conditional use permit provided the conditions listed in Section 2, are met by the applicant, and authorizes the administration to issue a conditional use permit to Robert Williams and Travis Maurer for the construction of a seventeen -unit multi -family residential structure, including approval of a building height of up to forty-eight (48) feet, on Tract 14 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2026-003 Page 5 of 5 5B-2, Forest Acres Subdivision, Seward Gateway Properties, located at 2405 Seward Highway, within an Auto Commercial (AC) zoning district Section 4.

Section 5. Administration shall periodically confirm the use conforms to the standards of its approval. Nonconformance to these above stated conditions shall be grounds for revoking the Conditional Use Permit. Section 6. This resolution shall take effect 10 days following its adoption.

This annual election ensures the Commission maintains designated leadership to facilitate meetings, guide discussion, and support the orderly conduct of Commission business throughout the year. The Chair is responsible for presiding over all Commission meetings and work sessions, maintaining order during proceedings, recognizing speakers, and ensuring meetings are conducted in accordance with applicable municipal code, adopted procedures, and parliamentary rules. The Vice Chair serves as the presiding officer in the absence of the Chair and assists with leadership responsibilities as needed to ensure continuity of Commission operations. During this agenda item, the Commission will open nominations and elect a Chair and Vice Chair from among its members to serve for the upcoming term. Below are guidelines that may be used for the election of the Chair and Vice Chair positions. VOTING & APPOINTING PROCEDURE 1. The Presiding Officer opens the floor for nominations of Chair. 2. Any commissioner, including the Presiding Officer, may nominate one or more commissioners for the position. 3. If only one nomination is received, a motion is made to close the nominations and cast a unanimous ballot for the chosen person. That motion will need a second and can be approved by unanimous consent (no roll call is necessary). 4. If more than one nomination is received, paper ballots will be distributed for each commissioner to sign and vote for a nominee, or else the commission may conduct a voice vote. It takes four affirmative votes to be appointed. Once the Chair is elected, the same procedure is repeated for the Vice Chair. 33
