ASSEMBLY AGENDA/MANAGER'S REPORT
THE CITY AND BOROUGH OF JUNEAU, ALASKA

Ordinance 2021-38 An Ordinance Amending the Official Zoning Map of the City and Borough to Change the Zoning of Honsinger Pond Lots 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11; Located Near 7900 Honsinger Drive.

MANAGER'S REPORT:

The developer of the Honsinger Pond Subdivision requested to rezone nine lots (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12 and 13) from Industrial to General Commercial. The Planning Commission, on August 10, 2021, found the proposal was for more than two acres, expanded an existing zoning district, and substantially conformed to the Resource Development designation of the Comprehensive Plan maps. However, the Planning Commission recommended the Assembly rezone different lots (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13) because of the noise concerns from the airport, height compatibility with the airport, wildlife conflicts at the airport, visibility from Egan, and align with nearby existing land uses.

RECOMMENDATION:

The City Manager recommends the Assembly introduce this ordinance and refer it to the Lands, Housing, and Economic Development Committee.
