Cost of Services Analysis -Residential Annexation
January 7, 2008
BACKGROUND: This is a cost of services analysis based on a request to annex the
0.47 acre lot located on the west side of 7th Avenue West between 11 Street West and
Sunnyside Drive. The property is addressed 1312 7th Avenue West and can be legally
described as Lot 3 of Western Acres subdivision located in Section 18, Tourriship 28
North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.
Once annexed to the City, full city services will be made available to the property owner.
Any necessary infrastructure associated with this development will be required to be
constructed in accordance with the City of Kalispell's Design and Construction
standards and any other development policies, regulations or ordinances that may
apply.
Mr. Buchholtz has submitted a request for a waiver of preliminary plat for this
property and our office is processing that request. Mr. Buchholtz intends to remove
the existing home and construct one duplex unit on each lot. The analysis is based on
this information. The two duplex units are considered to be 3 equivalent residential
units or ERUs for sewer and water.
This Cost of Services Analysis has been prepared as a residential annexation for
residential land over one-half acre and is only an estimate based on a variety of
assumptions. The analysis does not take into consideration the build -out time or
changes in methods of assessment and estimated costs associated with services. The
information can only be used as a general estimate of the anticipated cost of services
and revenue. A complete and accurate calculation win be completed at the time a
connection to water and sewer is requested and/or a building permit is applied for as
the necessary information would be available at that time.
CONCLUSIONS: Cost of services for this annexation is estimated to be $5,295.
Approximately $4,908 will be generated from assessments and taxes and a one time
impact fee for water, sewer, stormwater, police and fire is estimated to be $21,019.
Based on these estimated figures, the net revenue to the city would be a deficit of
approximately $387. Please refer to Exhibit A for more specific details on the
calculations.

REQUEST FOR INITIAL ZONING OF R-4, UPON ANNEXATION
STAFF REPORT #KA-07-19
KALISPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT
DECEMBER 3, 2007
A report to the Kalispell City Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council regarding
an initial zoning designation of R-4 upon annexation to the city of Kalispell. A public
hearing has been scheduled before the Kalispell City Planning Board for December
1 lth beginning at 7:00 PM, to consider appropriate zoning for the property to be
annexed. The planning board will forward a recommendation to the Kalispell City
Council for consideration.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The applicant has petitioned for annexation and an initial zoning designation of R-4, a
Two -Family Residential district, on approximately 0.47 of an acre. This report
evaluates the appropriate assignment of a City zoning classification in accordance with
Section 27.03.010(4) of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. This property will be annexed
under the provisions of Sections 7-2-4601 through 7-2-4610, M.C.A., Annexation by
Petition.
A. Petitioner / Owner: Lonnie and Kim Buchholtz
1079 Patrick Creek Road
Kalispell, MT 59901
B. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property proposed for
annexation and the initial zoning request is located on the west side of 7th Avenue
West, south of 11 th Street West. The property address is 13 12 7th Avenue West
and the property can be described as lot 3 of Western Acres subdivision located in
Section 18, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County.
C. Ezdsting Land Use and Zoning: The property proposed for annexation is in the
West Side County zoning jurisdiction and is currently zoned R-5, Two -Family
Residential. This district is defined as "A residential district with minimum lot
areas. Development within the district will require all public utilities and all
community facilities. Duplexes are allowed in this district." Permitted uses in
this district are generally limited to residential uses. The conditionally permitted
uses allow some non-residential uses but those are limited to churches, daycare
centers, mini and RV storage, RV Parks and campgrounds and golf courses. The
minimum lot size requirement of the County R-5 zoning district is 5,400 square
feet.
D. Proposed Zoning: The proposed R-4, Two -Family Residential, zone allows
duplexes and single-family residences as permitted uses and has a minimum lot
size requirement of 6,000 square feet and a -width of 50 feet. The proposed City
R-4 district more closely reflects the existing and intended uses for the property
and is consistent with the other City zoning in the immediate area.
E. Size: The area proposed for annexation and zoning contains approximately 0.47
of an acre.
F. Existing Land Use: The property proposed for annexation is occupied by a
single family dwelling. The property owner intends to subdivide the property into
two lots.
G. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning: The land use in the area is primarily single-
family residential along with some duplexes and tovinihouses.
H. General Land Use Character: The general land use character of this area can be
described as primarily residential with a mix of duplex and single family homes.
This area can also be described as being on the urban fringes of Kalispell and
there have been significant development pressures to the west.
I. Utilities and Public Services: All available public services and facilities will be
provided to these properties at the same level of service as other properties
similarly situated in the city limits.

I. EVALUATION BASED ON STATUTORY CRITERIA
The statutory basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by 76-2-303,
M.C.A. Findings of fact for the zone change request are discussed relative to the
itemized criteria described by 76-2-304, M.C.A. and Section 27.30.020, Kalispell
Zoning Ordinance.
Does the requested zone comply with the growth policy?
The property is designated by the Kalispell Growth Policy future land use map as
"Urban Residential" which anticipates residential development with a density of
between 3 to 12 dwelling units per acre. Because of the provision of public water
and sewer to the site, the proposed R-4 zoning designation is in compliance with
the future land use designation for the area. The R-4 zoning has a minimum lot
size requirement of 6,000 square feet with each lot allowing a duplex or a base
density of one dwelling per 3,000 square feet. This same zoning designation has
been applied to most properties in the west Kalispell area. The proposed zoning
is in compliance with the anticipated land use for the area which anticipates a
mix of single-family and duplex dwellings in urban residential areas.
2
2. Is the requested zone designed to lessen congestion in the streets?
Once the property is developed, all of the new development will be constructed to
City standards. Traffic in the area will increase insignificantly. The requested
zoning designation and subsequent development of the site will not lessen
congestion in the streets in the area, but this level and type of development is
anticipated to occur as development of the area continues.
3. Will the requested zone secure safety from fire, -panic, and other danaers?
Adequate access and public facilities are available to the site in the case of an
emergency. There are no features related to the property which would
compromise the safety of the public. New construction will be required to be in
compliance with the building safety codes of the City which relate to fire and
building safety. All municipal services including police and fire protection, water
and sewer service is available to the area and will be extended as part of the
development of this property at some point in the future.
4. Will the requested zone promote the health and general welfare?
The requested zoning classification will promote the health and general welfare
by restricting land uses to those that would be compatible with the adjoining
properties and providing a place for new housing in the community.
5. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air?
Setback, height, and coverage standards for development occurring on this site
are established in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance to insure adequate light and air
is provided.
6. Will the requested zone prevent the overcrowding of land?
As previously noted this area has been anticipated for urban residential
development. Water and sewer lines are located within the 7th Avenue West road
right-of-way making city densities and the proposed R-4 zoning designation
appropriate. All public services and facilities will be available to serve this
subdivision. Currently this property is in the county jurisdiction and is zoned R-
5, Two Family Residential, but they do not have access to public sewer and water
without annexation.
7. Will the requested zone avoid undue concentration of people?
The allowable density for this property will not change as a result of annexation
which is currently zoned for single-family homes and duplexes. Minimum lot
standards and use standards as well as subdivision development standards will
prevent the undue concentration of people at the time the property is developed.
8. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water,
sewerage, schools, parks, and other -public requirements?
All public services and facilities are currently available or can be provided to the
property. Development should be encouraged in areas where these services are
available.
9. Does the requested zone &e consideration to the particular suitability of the
property for particular uses?
The proposed RA zoning district is consistent with the surrounding zoning and
land uses in the area and gives due consideration of the suitability of this
property for the permitted uses in the district.
10. Does the requested zone give reasonable consideration to the character of the
district?
The general character of the area is urban sized lots for residential development
on City sewer and lower density development where on -site sewage treatment
methods are being used. The same type and density of development can be
anticipated to occur on this property that is in the area and will be consistent
with the character of the neighborhood.
11. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings?
Value of the buildings in the area will be conserved because the RA zoning will
promote compatible and like uses on this property as are found on other
properties in the area.
12. Will the requested zone encourage the most appropriate use of the land
throughout the municipality?
Urban scale residential development should be encouraged in areas where
services and facilities are available such as is being proposed on this parcel. The
proposed zoning is consistent with the future land use designations and
surrounding zoning in the area.
RECONMENDATION
It is recommended that the Kalispell City Planning Board and Zoning Commission adopt
Staff Report #KA-07-19 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council
that the initial zoning for this property upon annexation be R-4, Two Family Residential.
