more than were analyzed under the approved Conditional Use
Permit and parent Subdivision. This project is within the
jurisdiction of School District No. 5, and the Kalispell
police and fire departments. Emergency medical support is
located nearby at Kalispell Regional Hospital. The property
does not exhibit any natural hazards. The terrain is sloped
but not excessively and the property is not within a
designated floodplain. Access is via Glenwood Drive to the
individual cul-de-sacs servicing the lots. A reduction in the
