Public schools are specifically addressed "Support the Borough's efforts to continue long-range planning for the future needs of Seward's public school students." (page 39)." Stratee:ic Plan (1999) The Strategic Plan emphasizes expanding and integrating educational programs, including the Seward public schools (page 18). The concerns for supporting the community's economic base are addressed by the promotion of winter activities, specifically to "promote winter back-country activities such as the expansion of Nordic ski trails, alpine skiing and snowmachining (page 8)". Additionally, the need for connectivity is expressed through "connecting schools and residential areas through the development of sidewalks and trails (page 17)." Emere:encv Preparedness Plan (2000) The Emergency Preparedness Plan designates the Seward public schools as primary and secondary evacuation points for three of the six zones designated within the community (Section 4). D. Public Services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use. Finding: Water, sewer, and power will be available to the property as well as adequate fire, police and solid waste disposal services. E. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare. Finding: The Seward Middle School will enhance the public safety, health and welfare of the community. The school will serve as an emergency evacuation shelter, will support trail development and use, will be a public safety upgrade over the existing Middle School and will provide restricted connectivity throughout the public school campus running from the Elementary School to the High School for emergency access. 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 OUO!ldopu Sl! llll!MOnOJ SAUP 01 P~lJ~ ~){Ul nuqs uO!lnIos~l s!lll "., UO!l33S OIUAOlddu Sl!
