MEMORANDUM

TO: Timothy Navarre, Assembly President

Members, Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly

FROM: Grace Merkes, Assembly Member

DATE: April 16, 2001

SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 2001-12, local option zoning district amendment

Please find enclosed an ordinance amending KPB 21.44, Local Option Zoning, to make the 50-foot setback from the shoreline subject to the provisions of the anadromous streams and habitat protection ordinance, KPB 21.18. The amendment is offered because as written the local option zoning ordinance prohibits structures within 50 feet of the shore that would be allowed under KPB 21.18.

Hearing on shortened time is requested because at least one plat is pending the adoption of this necessary amendment.
