P.O. Box 7184
Kalispell, MT 59904
Location and Legal Description of Property: The property is located at 21 Appleway
and can be legally described as Lot 4A of Amended Subdivision Plat of Lots 4, 5 & 6 of
Appleway Business Park in Section 13, Township 28 North, Range 22 West, P.M.M.,

Existing Land Use and Zoning: The property is undeveloped grasslands.
The property is located within the B-2 (General Business) Zoning District. The Kalispell
Zoning Ordinance describes the intent of this district:
"A district which provides for a variety of sales and service establishments to serve
both residents of the area and the traveling public. This district depends on the

A. EVALUATION OF THE REOUEST
This application has been reviewed in accordance with the conditional use review criteria
in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. A conditional use permit may be granted only if the
proposal, as submitted, conforms to all of the following general conditional use permit
criteria, as well as to all other applicable criteria that may be requested:
1. Site Suitability:
a. Adequate Useable Space: The property is .39 acres and is adequate in size
in order to accommodate the proposed buildings, parking, recreation areas
and storm water. The subject property is flat making the entire site
developable.
b. Height, bulk and location of the building: The structures are proposed to be
2-story with a building footprint of 1,920 (60x32) square feet each. Building
height will be far below the maximum building height of 60 feet and the
structures meet the minimum required setbacks for development within the
B-2 Zone. The B-2 Zone requirements give due consideration to the height,
bulk and location of the proposed 4-plexes.
2
C. Adequate Access: The 4-plexes will be gaining their access via a private
driveway that connects to Appleway Drive, an improved arterial roadway. The
private driveway meets the minimum width requirements for ingress and
egress.
d. Environmental Constraints: There are no known environmental constraints,
such as steep slopes, streams, floodplains, or wetlands, on the property which
could affect the proposed use.
2. Appropriate Design:
a. Parking Scheme/Loading Areas: The development shall comply with the Off -
Street Parking and Design Standards as set forth in Chapter 27.24 of the
Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. For 8 units the zoning code requires 12 parking
spaces and the applicant has provided 12.
b. Lighting: Chapter 27.26 of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance sets standards for
all outdoor lighting on commercial or residential structures.
C. Traffic Circulation: The 4-plexes will gain their access from a 24' wide private
driveway that connects to Appleway Drive. Appleway Drive connects to a
network of streets in the vicinity, providing adequate traffic circulation.
d. Open Space: The proposed 4-plexes meet the setbacks required by the B-2
Zone, which provides for open spaces around the units. There is also
additional open space within the development that totals about 8,048 square
feet.
e. Fencing/Screening/Landscaping: To ensure the property is fully landscaped
and is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood, a landscape plan for
the entire site shall be submitted along with the building permit. The
landscape plan shall be approved by the Parks and Recreation Department
prior to issuance of the building permit.
Fencing for the units will have to comply with Section 27.20.040 of the
Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. In addition, staff recommends that any new
fencing at the rear of the property be a maximum height of 4 feet and of
residential scale due to the proximity of the Rails to Trails bike path.
f. Signage: The development shall comply with all of the sign standards as set
forth in Chapter 27.22 of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. At this point no
signs are being proposed.
3. Availability of Public Services/ Facilities:
a. Police: Police protection will be provided by the Kalispell Police Department.
3
No unusual impacts or needs are anticipated from the proposed multi -family
use.
a. Fire Protection: Fire protection will be provided by the Kalispell Fire
Department. There is adequate access to the property from the public road
system and the buildings will be constructed to meet current building and
fire code standards. Station 61 is 1.3 miles from the site and response time
will be good.
b. Water: City of Kalispell water infrastructure is located within Appleway Drive
to the north. The developer will be required to pay the cost for service line
connections for the proposed units. The meter vaults will need to be installed
behind the sidewalk because the sanitary sewer is located within the
boulevard.
C. Sewer: City of Kalispell sewer infrastructure is located within Appleway Drive
to the north. The developer will be required to pay the cost for service line
connections for the proposed units.
d. Storm Water Drainage: Storm water runoff from the site shall be managed
and constructed per the City of Kalispell Construction and Design Standards.
Prior to receiving a building permit the developer will need to submit a
construction storm water management plan to the Public Works Department.
The applicant has shown a drainage easement on the southern property
boundary. Any storm water areas need to be setback from the property line
20 feet. Implementation of the required setback will likely cause a shift in the
parking area to provide for the necessary storm water area.
e. Solid Waste: Solid waste pick-up will be provided by the City of Kalispell.
b. Streets: The proposed 4-plexes front Appleway Drive, which is an improved
arterial Roadway. Appleway Drive needs to be improved to city standards
including curb, gutter, boulevard and trees along the property frontage.
f. Sidewalks: Sidewalks are not currently in place, however, staff is
recommending conditions that sidewalks shall be constructed along the
property frontage, from the parking spots to the dwelling units, and from the
units to the Rails to Trails bike path.
g. Schools: This site is within the boundaries of School District #5. A very minor
impact to the district may be anticipated from the proposed 4-plexes
depending on the demographics of the residents. On average four students
K-12 would be anticipated from eight dwelling units.
h. Parks and Recreation: Section 27.34.060 of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance
requires 4,000 square feet of recreational land or a combination of equivalent
recreational amenities based on 500 square feet of land per residential unit
4
based. The site plan indicates a 8,048 square feet landscaped recreational
area central to the site between the two buildings.
4. Neighborhood impacts:
a. Traffic: Two 4-plexes will not have a significant impact on the traffic generated
in the area. It is anticipated that each unit will produce approximately 9.57
trip ends/day (Per ITE trip generation model). The eight units would generate
approximately 77 trips per day cumulatively. The width and quality of
Appleway Drive is more than adequate to handle the additional traffic load.
b. Noise and Vibration: Other than during construction, the 4-plexes will not
create any objectionable noise and vibration beyond what would normally be
associated with a single-family residence.
C. Dust, Glare, and Heat: Other than during construction, the 4-plexes will not
create any objectionable dust, glare, and heat beyond what would normally
be associated with a single-family residence.
d. Smoke, Fumes, Gas, or Odors: Other than during construction, the 4-plexes
will not create any objectionable smoke, fumes, gas, or odors beyond what
would normally be associated with a single-family residence.
e. Hours of Operation: Hours of operation does not apply to this project since it
is for residential purposes. If a home based occupation were to occur the
residents would have to comply with the home based occupation section of
the zoning ordinance, outlined in Section 27.20.060 of the Kalispell Zoning
Ordinance.
S. Consideration of historical use patterns and recent changes: This area has
generally seen a significant conversion to multi -family housing. It was a remnant
B-2 commercial zone that had no strong commercial impetus. A recent market
study conducted by Property Dynamics - Mill Creek, Washington, indicated that
in the summer of 2017 there was a 0% vacancy of multi -family units within the
Kalispell area, indicating a strong need for additional housing options. The subject
property is an excellent location for multi -family housing due to its location on
the Rails to Trails pathway and access into the downtown.
6. Effects on property values: No significant negative impacts on property values
are anticipated as a result of the requested conditional use of the property.
B. RECOMMENDATION
The staff recommends that the Planning Board adopt staff report #KCU-18-03 as findings
of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the conditional use permit be
approved subject to the following conditions:

STAFF REPORT Jarod Nygren, representing the Kalispell Planning Department reviewed Staff
Report #KGPA-18-05, KA-18-05, KZC-18-03, KPUD-18-03 and KPP-18-07.
Nygren went over the project including the zoning, growth policy, existing land
uses, surrounding land uses, history of the property and the applications being
requested. Staff recommends that the Kalispell City Planning Board adopt staff
report #KGPA-18-01, KA-18-05, KZC-18-03, KPUD-18-03 and KPP-18-07 as
findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the growth
policy map amendment, annexation, zone change, planned unit development
and preliminary plat be approved subject to the conditions listed in the staff
report.
BOARD DISCUSSION Graham asked about wayfinding signs at the SE corner of the property to deter
people from using it as a main point of entering and exiting and will the fire
department requirements allow for such language to keep people from using it
as much as possible. Jentz explained that the way finding signs at the NE corner
will advise people to use the NE corner and will keep them away from the SE
corner.
Graham inquired about the sewer dump requirement in condition # 12. Nygren
advised the city has a surcharge on RV Dumps due to the chemicals in the RV
waste tank; Public Works concern is how they will get the surcharge paid to
them if not every RV that comes through is required to dump upon entering the
park.
Graham mentioned his concerns in regards to condition #33. Asked about signs
in the park for where campfires are permitted and where they are not. He is
concerned about guests having campfires in places that are not permitted.
Giavasis asked for clarification on the zoning request. Wants to know what
happens if the RV park does not happen. Nygren advised that it would then
revert to a placeholder PUD and any future developers would have to submit a
new PUD application, which would come before the Board similarly to this
=_ request.
_ Vomfell asked about condition #21. He would like to see a more specific
requirement for trees. Jentz advised that a line could be added to the condition if
the board wishes to do so.
PUBLIC HEARING Jeanette Cusick — 252 Ashley Meadows agrees with the project but feels
Ashley Meadows Rd. is too narrow for RV's and is worried about accidents
when the campers are trying to exit onto Hwy 93 from Ashley Meadows Rd.
Would prefer that the SE corner not be used as a main entrance and exit.
Richard Turbiak — 14 3rd St E, Citizens for a Better Flathead — does not think
the applicant has met the burden of proof requirements in order to approve a
growth policy map amendment and feels the property would be better used for
housing opportunities.
Susan Stark — 318 Ponderosa Lane concerned about RV's backing up onto the
bypass from the park when they are waiting to check in.
Andy Matthews — 5238 Baskin St, Orlando, FL applicant for RV Park has a
number of concerns with the staff report and identified them individually. His
first concern was on page 23-24, Section D regarding the 6ft tall berm
requirement. He was hoping to be able to build a forest there rather than a berm,
feels it will be too hard to plant the forest with such a vertically high berm,
Kalispell City Planning Board
Minutes of the meeting of July 10, 2018

wants it to look more like a park. He is requesting that since he is required to
put in a new street that he be able to name the new unnamed street referenced
on page 27, section (a) Phase 1. On Page 29-30, Section A - Access, he would
like to change the word "prior" in paragraph 2 to read "in conjunction with". He
also wants to go on the record in regards to the dump station(condition 12) and
mention that most people travelling in an RV do not travel with a full waste
tank so requiring them to dump upon entrance may hurt RV capacity. He would
like to possibly have a conversation about implementing a tax on the park fees
to make up for that rather than a dump requirement. In regards to Page 37,
condition #25 he would like to add "at this time" after general public because
they feel this RV park is a huge asset for the city and that adding this would be
very helpful long term. He is requesting that the second access be gated and
locked and to use a Knox Box, code or key for the Fire Department to have
access. They want to limit traffic as much as possible on Ashley Meadows and
to stop traffic through their development as much as possible. Lastly he would
like the board to reconsider the new street install be done based on the amount
of spaces rather than by a certain phase of the project.
Rob Smith — 138 E Center St. — A to Z Engineering -• representative for
applicant — asking for flexibility on condition #10, feels that requiring people to
dump upon entrance is going to be a deterrent, would like to talk to Public
Works about paying a tax or an upfront fee to alleviate that. Would also like to
see some flexibility on the 6ft berm and the timing of building the new street
through.
Mike Merchant — 288 41h Ave EN — is in support of the project and feels it will
bring a lot of business to Kalispell and that Kalispell could stand to be
recognized as a premier RV Camping location with the addition of this RV
Park. Also feels that it could increase business for public transportation by
providing shuttle services for the campers to GNP, downtown Kalispell, etc.
Elizabeth Wood — representative for the Elks Lodge — wants to let the board
know they approve of this project and agrees that it could be very helpful for the
public transportation system.
MOTION Skees moved and Kauffman seconded a motion that the Kalispell City Planning
GROWTH POLICY AMENDMENT Board and Zoning Commission recommends to the Kalispell City Council
(KGPA-18-01) Resolution KGPA-18-01, a resolution amending the Kalispell Growth Policy
Future Land Use Map from Urban Residential to Urban Mixed Use for the 50.33-
acre property.
BOARD DISCUSSION Young and Graham inquired about the change to the growth policy. Asked if
changing the growth policy, along with changing the zoning and use, would it
make it difficult for any future developers if the RV Park did not happen. Jentz
advised that there is an amendment process that can be followed to make future
changes if need be and any development different than what is being proposed
would require a new PUD application.
ROLL CALL
Givasis says he feels this area is a good place for an RV Park being so close to
the trail.

Board and Zoning Commission adopt Staff Report #K7-C-18-03 as findings of
fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the zoning for the property
be B-2/PUD.
BOARD DISCUSSION
None.
ROLL CALL
The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote.
MOTION -ORIGINAL
Giavasis moved and Kauffman seconded a motion that the Kalispell City
PUD (KPUD-18-03)
Planning Board and Zoning Commission adopt Staff Report #KPUD-18-03 as
findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the Montana
Base Camp PUD overlay district for the entire 50.33-acre site be approved
subject to the conditions listed in the staff report.
BOARD DISCUSSION
Graham asked for clarification in regards to the applicant naming the street.
Nygren advised that the applicant will work with Public Works on and it should
not be a problem letting him name the street.
Young asked about closing off the SE corner with a fire gate. Nygren advised
that it is something they could talk to the fire chief about but there is a code that
requires 2 accesses into the property due to the number of spaces being
requested. Staff recommended to the board to either add a condition to the staff
report or just leave it as is so staff could work with the applicant prior to council
considering the requests. The board decided that they would encourage the
—_
applicant to talk with the fire chief to see about making the second access for
_-__ -_ -
fire access only and not add a condition to the staff report. Nygren
_� --
recommended that the board could amend condition #31 by adding "wayfinding
__-
signs," which could address how the applicant intends to direct traffic through
-- =
the development, including discouraging traffic through the second SE access.
M _-_
Young noted that he does not agree with condition #12. Nygren advised he has
--_-_
a suggestion for an amendment; the board could amend the wording to add in
_
_
parenthesis after "A sewer dump station (or similar mechanism intended to
-- -
capture the surcharge) shall be constructed......"
MOTION — STRIKE COND #12 _=
Young moved to strike condition # 12, did not receive a second. Motion failed.
PUD (KPUD-18-03)
MOTION —AMEND COND #12 _
Graham moved and Kauffman seconded a motion to amend condition #12 to
PUD (KPUD-18-03) _ --
add language after "dump station" to read (or similar mechanism intended to
--
capture the surcharge), and keeping the rest of the condition as is.
BOARD DISCUSSION
The board discussed the fact that they want there to be options for the dump
station requirement to the applicant because they do not feel that requiring every
RV to dump upon entrance makes sense. They want the options available to the
city council to help decide as well.
ROLL CALL
The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote.
MOTION —AMEND COND #21
Vomfell moved and Giavasis seconded a motion to amend condition #21 to
PUD (KPUD-I8-03)
change the language after "placement of trees" to read, "as shown on site plan
and RV space design plan", and keeping the rest of the condition as is.
BOARD DISCUSSION
Graham asked for clarification from Vomfell. Vomfell advised that he just

wants to ensure the tree density. Young feels that Parks & Rec do a good job at
ensuring the developers do what they say they are going to do and is not
worried about it.
The motion failed 7-2 on a roll call vote.
Skees moved and Giavasis seconded a motion to amend condition #30. B to add

Board and Zoning Commission adopt Staff Report #KPP-18-07 as findings of
fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the preliminary plat for
Montana Base Camp be approved, subject to the conditions, as amended listed
in the staff report.
BOARD DISCUSSION

state to file a preliminary plat but not a final plat; they will submit a revised
preliminary plat later on that is filed with the city.
