This ordinance shall take effect ten (10) days following its enactment. ENACTED by the City Council of the City of Seward, Alaska, this day of February 2013. THE CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA David Seaward, Mayor AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAIN: ATTEST: Johanna Kinney, CMC City Clerk (City Seal) P&Z Agenda Statement Meeting Date: January 3, 2013 - Through: Ron Long, Assistant City Manager From: Donna Glenz, Planner �� Agenda Item: Recommending Council Approve the attached Ordinance amending the zoning designation of a small portion of City owned land located within Tract G of the Waterfront Park Replat BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION: Attached for the Commission's review and recommendation to the Seward City Council is Resolution 2013-01, recommending City Council approval of Ordinance 2013-xxx (attached), amending the zoning designation of a small portion of Tract G, Waterfront Park Replat from Harbor Commercial (HC) to Park Zoning District (P). Administration hired Cline and Associates Land Surveyors to prepare a preliminary plat of the City owned lands, establishing the perimeter boundary of the historical area commonly known as Waterfront Park. By Resolution 2011-037, dated May 23, 2011, Seward City Council recommended the Kenai Peninsula Borough Plat Committee approve the Waterfront Park replat. The Kenai Peninsula Borough approved the Waterfront Park Replat which was recorded as plat 2012-04 in the Seward Recording District on June 8, 2012. The area known as Waterfront Park contains 106.97 acres having a legal description of Seward Original Townsite, Waterfront Park Replat. Tract G of the Waterfront Park is located at the North boundary, within the established park boundary. The area of Tract G, proposed in this rezone is south of the South Harbor Uplands and east of the Harbor Lights Apartments. The small area of Harbor Commercial Zoning within Tract G is approximately 29,500 square feet, less than two-thirds of an acre. The area has historically been used as a campground for summer visitors' motorhome parking. The surrounding zoning is Park on the East and South and Harbor Commercial to the West and North. Property use to the East is summer camping, parking and Resurrection Bay. To the South is Scheffler Creek better known as the "Fish Ditch" and Waterfront Park. To the West is an undeveloped alley containing a tree buffer and the back of the Harbor Lights Apartments. To the North is the driveway access to the South Harbor Uplands and open parking area. Seward City Code SCC §15.01.035, Amendments, (b) (3) allows the consideration of this rezone because the land is contiguous to the requested Park Zoning District and is recommended by the Land Use Plan. The Land Use Map, as adopted by the 2020 Comprehensive Plan, designates the area requested for rezone as Park (P) as defined in SCC 15.05.025 (b)( (12) Parks district (P). Is intended to designate park, recreation and commemorative property owned by the city, state or federal governments for recreation and other compatible public purposes. CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST: Yes No N/A 1.

Staff Comments: Community Development staff has presented the zoning change to all department heads for review and discussion. All departments support the requested zoning changes. Public Comment: Property owners within three hundred (300) feet of the proposed rezone action were notified. Public notice signs were posted on the property, and all other public hearing requirements of Seward City Code § 15. 01.040 were complied with. One public comment was received in non-support of the rezone. This comment has been included in your packet. Concern was voiced that the area requested for rezone could be used as a location for a new Harbor Master building or other commercial shops and not to park "the Harbor Fleet." Staff has tried to contact Mr. Tougas to discuss his concerns but he is unavailable until the 10t' of January. RECOMMENDATION: Commission approve Resolution 2013-01 recommending City Council approval of the attached Ordinance 2013-xxx, amending the zoning designation of approximately two-thirds of an acre of City owned land located within the Waterfront Park boundary, Tract G, Waterfront Park Replat from Harbor Commercial Zoning District (HC) to Park (P) Zoning District.

Donna Glenz From: Jim Hunt Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2012 10:31 AM To: Donna Glenz Subject: FW: rezoning Harbor Commercial land to Park From: Tom Tougas [mailto:tomCahtmtalaska.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 26, 2012 3:55 PM To: Ron Long; Jim Hunt Cc: Mack Funk Subject: rezoning Harbor Commercial land to Park Ron and Jim, As you know P&Z is holding a public hearing January 3 on a resolution to rezone a fairly large piece of land between the Harbor Lights Apartments and the new uplands area from Harbor Commercial to Park. I'm not sure why this is being done NOW before the new uplands development plan has not been developed or adopted? I think this land should be included in the consideration of the Uplands site. As you know one of Seward's greatest weaknesses is the lack of private land available for small business development. Each Year in the budget there is discussion about how something like 68% of the land in the city is not taxable because it is owned by the City, the Fed's or the Alaska Railroad. If we are ever going to be serious about encouraging investment and innovation in Seward we need to address the "Choke Hold" that the City has on the land. I oppose this effort to rezone at this time unless it's part of a larger Harbor Development Plan. This might be a good location for Harbormaster office or shop rather than using high value Harbor Land for parking the Harbor fleet. I also think that the public notice that calls this area a "Small Portion of City Owned Land" is misleading! This is a large portion of the remaining Harbor Commercial Land. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend the P&Z meeting but I wanted to bring up these points now rather than later.

The event coincided with FEMA's effort to restudy the area using recent high resolution LiDAR terrain data. The effort involves multiple partners including the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI), the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development, and STARR. As a result of the disaster, Clackamas County asked the State about potential projects to further analyze the risks attributed to effects of long term erosion and urgent needs for data to help manage planned bank stabilization projects during the upcoming summer building period. Given that a new study was underway; all stakeholders concluded that using the more accurate study data would be beneficial. However, the surveying and hydraulic analyses would not be completed until the spring of 2013. Clackamas County was concerned about the upcoming 2012-2013 flood season. FEMA Regional Engineer David Ratte learned about the concerns and proposed that through Risk MAP, we could better identify the velocity hazards with a limited -detail hydraulic model. A limited -detail model is based on geometry derived from the LiDAR terrain data rather than field surveys. The effort would not be too costly and could be finished before the flood season. Furthermore, velocity data could be ARI? extracted from the model and projected on risk maps showing where the higher velocities were most likely, as well as ranges. The areas of highest risk based on depth and velocity magnitudes could be color -coded for better graphic representations. The County and the state were pleased with the proposal. Upon completion of the work, Clackamas County Emergency Manager Jay Wilson observed that the products "...help tell the story of the river and how it changes." The County used the data to present to local property owners and stakeholders at a preparedness workshop. The results were well received. The Sandy River Basin Watershed Council expressed interest to use the data for their outreach activities. MAP INDEX r> i -� A � The work is a great start towards developing a better understanding of the river's powerful impacts, but more studies are needed to develop bank stabilization design guidance and to examine specific properties and account for side channels. The new detailed study underway will help support additional assessments and the County is planning projects through the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. The maps bring the dynamic nature of the river to life in a way that a FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map aren't designed to do.
