Seward Planning and Zoning Commission
Resolution No. 98-05
Page 3
Community Appearance Goal: Improve the appearance of the entire community through increased
landscaping, beaut!fication and litter control efforts... The Plan recommended continuing to
require landscaping plans as part of conditional use permits, where feasible (Page 17).
Land Use Goal: Maintain Seward's Land Use Plan as the primary local tool to ensure quality
community land use arrangements, growth and development to the year 20/0. The Plan
recommends concentrating Commercial Development in order to enhance and protect the
Downtown and Small Boat Harbor commercial operations and encourage sound community
growth and development (Page 29).
Transportation Facilities Goal: Maintain Seward's Transportation Plan as the primary local tool
to ensure safe and convenient transportation facilities that address the needs of Seward residents,
businesses and visitors to the year 20]0. The Plan recommends continuing to require the
development of on-street parking facilities through provisions within the zoning ordinance.
E. Public Services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed site.
Adequate water, sewer, and power are available to the property as well as adequate fire, police
and solid waste disposal services. City code requires that every business within the City must
provide containers suitable for refuse collection (SCC S 14.05). Construction waste and debris
must be removed weekly and upon completion of construction.
F. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or
welfare. The building construction will meet the requirements of the Uniform Building and Fire
Codes. There is no evidence that the proposed development will be harmful to the public safety,
health or welfare.
G. 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 to the proposed use. Based on the above
findings and conclusions, approval of the CUP shall be subject to the following conditions:
1. Solid waste containers will be provided as required by SCC S 14.04 and placed in
a location approved by the city contractor for solid waste collection;
2. A minimum five foot setback is required along the south property line to prevent
snow and rain from shedding off of the building roof onto the adjacent private
property;
3. The permittee shall provide either a vegetative screening or fence at least four feet
high along the south property line in order to protect the adjacent single-family
home from the commercial development;
