The Highway 93 South Corridor is recognized as a major arterial within the larger
Kalispell area and as such its integrity in moving traffic is a primary goad. It is
recognized that development will: occur along this corridor that will contribute to a.
local and regional economy in commercial, industrial and residential aspects.
Issues:

associated with additional accesses being created along Divvy 93 as new
development occurs.

limit where development can occur.
6. Lineal development along highway corridors generally contributes to trade
problems and conflicts associated with single accesses, visual clutter and a
.sized quality of life.
7. Because of the rapid growth and development in the area, the community
often es ends up responding or reacting to a specific development proposal
rather than anticipating where development will occur and being prepared to
provide services.

AREAS WHERE PUBLIC SERVICES, UTILITIES AND FAOILTIES ARE AVAILABLE

SHOULD BE OF HIGH QUALITY IN DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURAL QUALITY.
