TO:                  MAYOR HORNADAY AND HOMER CITY COUNCIL

                        WALT WREDE, CITY MANAGER

 

FROM:             RICK ABBOUD, CITY PLANNER

 

DATE:             April 13, 2009

 

SUBJECT:       An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Homer, Alaska, Amending the Homer City zoning map to rezone portions of the Urban Residential (UR) to Residential Office (RO).

 

At the regular meeting held April 1, 2009, the Homer Advisory Planning Commission (HAPC) held a public hearing on the above referenced rezone. 

 

The proposed rezone would change the zoning of 30 parcels located on Ben Walters Lane from Urban Residential to Residential Office. At the Planning Commission meeting, two people testified in support of the ordinance and none opposing. The proposed rezoning provides a logical extension of the RO district, as outlined in the accompanying staff report.

 

Recommendation:

 

The Homer Advisory Planning Commission recommends the Homer City Council adopt the ordinance and amend the Zoning Map.
