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 2010. The Plan recommends continuing to require the
development of off-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 ~ 14.05). Currently, the garbage container
rack is located behind the building within the alley right-of-way.
F. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or
welfare. The building construction must meet the requirements of the Uniform Building and Fire
Codes.
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. The garbage container rack must be relocated out of the alley right-of-way; and
2. In accordance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendation that the
development of off-street parking facilities be required through provisions within
the zoning ordinance, the developer shall provide one off-street parking space for
each of the four new guest rooms; and
Section 2. Based on the findings and conclusions specified in Section 1 above, the
Planning and Zoning Commission authorizes the Community Development Department to issue
a Conditional Use Permit to Gordon Turner for the development and operation of a nine unit hotel
on the South 7' 2" of Lot 7 and all of Lot 8, Block 10, Original Townsite of Seward, subject to
the two conditions listed in Section 1, Subsection G.
Section 3. This resolution shall take effect 10 days following its adoption.
