. The available public and private parking does not meet the current parking needs of
existing businesses and the Marina (page 13);
. Recommends increased landscaping in conjunction with development projects (page 21),
D. Public Services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use.
Finding: Water, sewer, telephone and electrical service are available to the
property, as well as adequate emergency services. Garbage dumpsters are available
onsite.
Public utility easements are onsite and there shall not be any encroachments, above or
below ground, in the utility easements.
E. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare.
Finding: Utilizing North Harbor Street will create more traffic congestion due to
left hand turns being made to enter and leave the property. Restricting the flow of traffic
onsite to one-way, going from North to South will mitigate a significant amount of
congestion.
Providing adequate parking for the guest rooms will mitigate parking concerns in the
area.
Runoff from storm water and snow melt can be mitigated by having a landscape plan
which incorporates retention and a slower rate of discharge off site.
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 related to the proposed use.
1. One off-street parking space per guest unit shall be provided for the life of the
hotel. The required parking must meet the requirements of Seward City Parking
Code 15.10.215 and the American Disabilities Act.
2. A landscaping plan shall be approved by staff and shall contribute to the retention
of storm water runoff.
3. Modifications to the site plan dated October 27, 2005 which was approved by the
Commission as a supporting document for this Conditional Use Permit, shall be
approved by staff or the Commission prior to implementation.
