Seward Planning and Zoning Commission
Resolution No. 99-04
Page 3
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 2010. 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 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). Construction waste and debris
must be removed weekly and upon completion of construction. The applicant has not identified
on the site plan where the fuel/propane tanks or refuse containers will be located on the property.
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. In accordance with the Land Use Plan designation of Auto Commercial and to minimize
the impacts on the adjacent property to the south, a minimum five foot setback is required
along the south property line;
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 per guest unit for a total of 12 on-site
parking spaces. The required parking shall be provided in accordance with Seward City
Code Section 15.10.215 Parking; and
3. All areas not devoted to buildings, drives, walks, parking areas or other authorized
installations shall be covered with one or more of the following: lawn grass, natural or
ornamental shrubbery or trees.
