SUBJECT: KA-20-02 — Behe Annexation and Initial Zoning Request
MEETING DATE: June 1, 2020
BACKGROUND: This matter is a request from Connie Behe for annexation and initial zoning of
city R-2 (Residential). The property will be annexed under the provisions of Sections 7-2-4601
through 7-2-4610, M.C.A., Annexation by Petition. The property is currently zoned county R-2 and
contains a single-family residence. The annexation request is due to an existing septic field which is
failing. City sanitary sewer service is adjacent to the property as the Westside Interceptor was
recently installed within the Two Mile Drive right-of-way. The surrounding area is a mix of county
R-1 and R-2 zoning. The property is located at 1100 Two Mile Drive within the annexation
boundary. The property can be more particularly described as Assessors Tract 3ACB in the
Northeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of Section 11, Township 28 North, Range 22 West,
M.P.M., Flathead County, Montana.
The Kalispell Planning Board held a duly noticed public hearing on May 12, 2020, to consider the
annexation and initial zoning request. Staff presented staff report KA-20-02 providing details of the
proposal and evaluation. Staff recommended that the Planning Board adopt the staff report as
findings of fact, and recommend to the Council that the annexation and initial zoning request be
granted.
There was one written comment submitted and read into the record relating to the potential for other
annexations in the area. After receiving comment, the public hearing was closed and a motion was
presented to adopt staff report KA-20-02 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City
Council that the property be annexed with an initial zoning of R-2. Board discussion concluded that
the request was appropriate, and the motion passed unanimously on roll call vote.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Kalispell City Council approve Resolution
5975, a Resolution to provide for the alteration of boundaries of the City of Kalispell by including
therein as an annexation Assessors Tract 3ACB in the Northeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of
Section 11, Township 28 North, Range 22 West, M.P.M., Flathead County, Montana.
It is also recommended that the Kalispell City Council approve the first reading of Ordinance 1843,
an Ordinance to amend section 27.02.010, official zoning map, City of Kalispell zoning ordinance
1677, by zoning certain real property described as Assessors Tract 3ACB in the Northeast Quarter of
the Southeast Quarter of Section 11, Township 28 North, Range 22 West, M.P.M., Flathead County,
Montana, as City R-2 (Residential), in accordance with the Kalispell Growth Policy Plan — It 2035,
and to provide an effective date.
FISCAL EFFECTS: There are no anticipated fiscal impacts at this time.
ALTERNATIVES: Deny the request.

ANNEXATION AND INITIAL ZONING OF R-2 UPON ANNEXATION
STAFF REPORT #KA-20-02
KALISPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT
May 6, 2020
This report to the Kalispell City Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council is regarding a
request from Connie Behe to annex a 0.5 acre parcel into the city limits with an initial zoning
designation of R-2 (Residential) upon annexation. A public hearing has been scheduled before the
Planning Board for May 12, 2020, beginning at 6:00 PM in the Kalispell City Council Chambers.
The Planning Board will forward a recommendation to the Kalispell City Council for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
This application is a request from Connie Behe to annex an approximately 0.5 acre parcel into the
city with an initial zoning designation of R-2 (Residential) upon annexation. The subject property
is currently within the county and zoned county R-2. It is developed with a single-family
residence. The annexation request is due to an existing septic field which is failing. City sanitary
sewer service is adjacent to the property as the Westside Interceptor sanitary sewer line was
recently installed within the Two Mile Drive right-of-way.
This report evaluates the application in accordance with state and local regulations. The annexation
request and initial city zoning classification will be reviewed 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. The statutory
basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by Section 27.29.020 of the Kalispell Zoning
Ordinance and 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.

Severe
C. Existing Land Use and Zoning: The subject property contains one single-family residence.
The zoning of the area to be annexed is county R-2. The county R-2 Zoning District is
intended to provide large tract residential development in suburban areas and typically served
by water or sewer service.
D. Proposed Zoning: The proposed zoning is city R-2 (Residential). The Kalispell Zoning
Regulations state that the intent of the R-2 zoning district is "to provide for adequate lot areas
for lower density residential development, should have good throughfare access, and be in
proximity to community and neighborhood facilities, i.e. schools, parks, shopping areas, etc.
This development will normally require all public utilities. This zoning district would
typically be found in areas designated as suburban residential on the Kalispell Growth Policy
Future Land Use Map."
E. Size: The subject property is approximately 0.5 acres.

F. Adjacent Zoning:

South: County R-I and R-2
G. Adjacent Land Uses:
North: Single-family (county)
East: Single-family (county)
West: Single-family (county)
South: Single-family (county)
The general land use of the area can be described as primarily single-family residential
development. On the north side of Two Mile Drive, there are somewhat higher density single-
family residential subdivisions. On the south side of Two Mile Drive, there tends to be larger
tract parcels with single-family residences.
I. Utilities and Public Services:
The primary motivation for this annexation is a failing septic system. The new Westside
Interceptor sewer line is immediately adjacent to the property within the Two Mile Drive
right-of-way. The applicant has met with Public Works and determined that the property can
connect to the sewer line. Water service is not currently in the vicinity, however, the Water
Facility Update Plan indicates a new water main within Two Mile Drive adjacent the
property. Also, potential development along Two Mile may bring city water mains into the
area. After annexation, any future development of the site will be required to pay the cost

ANNEXATION EVALUATION
Compliance with the growth polices
Two primary means for managing growth in the City of Kalispell are redevelopmentlinfill
within the current city limits or annexation of outlying areas. A goal of the growth policy
is to provide a comprehensive, effective growth management plan that provides for all the
needs of the community, is adaptable to changing trends and is attuned to the overall public
welfare. Chapter 9, Public Infrastructure and Services, includes a goal to "make public
water and sewer available to areas that are in close proximity to services," and annexation
allows for such extensions to happen.
In addition, the city council adopted an annexation policy in 2011, with a corresponding
map, as an addendum to the city's growth policy document. The purpose of the annexation
policy is to give the Planning Board, the Council, and the development community
direction when property owners outside of the city limits are requesting annexation. The
property proposed for annexation falls inside the city's direct annexation boundary.
Municipal Services:
The City of Kalispell has an extension of services plan that details how services would be
extended to the annexed property.
The new Westside Interceptor sewer line is immediately adjacent to the property within the
Two Mile Drive right-of-way. The applicant has met with Public Works and determined
that the property can connect to the sewer line. Water service is not currently in the
vicinity, although it is within the Potential Utility Service area under the Water Facility
Update Plan and is available if the applicant or any other property owner in the area wanted
to extend existing water mains.
The site is currently protected by the West Valley Kalispell Rural Fire District and the
Flathead County Sheriff's office. The applicant has submitted a Notice of Withdrawal from
Rural Fire District. At the time of annexation, the property will be served by the Kalispell
E
Police and Fire Departments. The site lies approximately 2.0 miles from fire station 61
and is readily serviceable by the city fire, police and ambulance services.
Given the level of existing services available to the property, annexation will not
overburden the municipal services in place.
3. Distance from current ci . limits:
The subject property is not immediately adjacent to the existing city limits line. However,
it lies between properties to the east and west along Two Mile Drive that are within the
city. About 1800 ft to the east is a recently annexed property along the bypass which is
adjacent to the Greenbriar subdivision. About 2100 ft to the west is the southern portion
of Rockwood Ranch, a residential development with 229 single-family and townhome
units that was approved in 2018 and has yet to be developed. Staff has also had multiple
conversations with property owners in the vicinity that have explored their option to annex
into the city for similar reasons as the applicant.
4. Cost of services:
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.
The cost to serve the land proposed for annexation is shown in the attached cost of service
analysis — Initial Annexation. The analysis is only an estimate based on a variety of
assumptions. The analysis does not take into consideration 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.
The property is currently developed with one single-family residence. The total cost of
services is estimated to be $620 per year. Based on the city's taxation and assessment
policies, the property will generate approximately $2,184 per year in total annual revenue
to the city ($1,133 in taxes and $1,051 in assessments). Based on this analysis, the
annexation will be net gain to the city of $1,564.
II. INITIAL ZONING AND ZONE CHANGE 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 27.29.020, Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. The site is currently
zoned county R-1. The applicants are requesting city R-2.
The Kalispell Zoning Regulations state that the intent of the R-2 zoning district is "to provide
for adequate lot areas for lower density residential development, should have good
throughfare access, and be in proximity to community and neighborhood facilities, i.e.
5
schools, parks, shopping areas, etc. This development will normally require all public
utilities. This zoning district would typically be found in areas designated as suburban
residential on the Kalispell Growth Policy Future Land Use Map."

1. Does the requested zone comply with
the growth polices
The Kalispell Growth Policy Future Land
Use Map designates the subject property as
Suburban Residential. As mentioned above,
the R-2 Zoning District would typically be
found in areas designated as Suburban
Residential on the Kalispell Growth Policy
Future Land Use Map.
2. Will the requested zone have an effect
on motorized and non -motorized transportation
systems?
Upon annexation, there will be no change in use
on the property and no impact on transportation.
If and when the property redevelops, traffic
impacts would be reviewed as part of a
subdivision or conditional use permit.
Will the requested zone secure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers?
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. Most municipal services including police/fire protection, solid waste collection and
sewer service are currently available to the area. Water service is not currently extended to
the area, although the fire department has access to water tender equipment. The Kalispell
Fire Chief has reviewed the site and believes that, if annexed, the property can be adequately
protected from fire.
4. Will the requested zone promote the public health, safe . and general welfare?
As with safety from fire and other dangers, the general health, safety, and welfare of the
public will be promoted through general city regulations designed to regulate allowable
uses when the property is developed. In this case, the requested zoning classification of R-
2 will promote the health and general welfare by restricting land uses to those that would be
compatible with the adjoining properties and those in the vicinity.
on
5. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air?
Setback, height, and lot coverage standards for development occurring on this site are
established in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance to ensure adequate light and air is provided.
6. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewerage,
schools, parks, and other public requirements?
All public services and facilities are available to the property, although water is not in the
immediate vicinity and would require a significant extension of the existing main. The home
is currently served by a private well and would continue to use it after annexation.
7. Will the requested zone promote compatible urban growth?
The requested city R-2 Zoning District is similar zoning as the surrounding county properties
and is consistent with the type of growth projected for this area in the Growth Policy. This
zoning district maintains and is compatible with the established land use pattern in this area.
8. Does the requested zone give consideration to the character of the district and its particular
suitabili . for particular uses?
The proposed R-2 Zoning District is consistent with the surrounding residential development
of the area, which includes a mix of single-family residences on various sized tracts. It also
gives due consideration of the suitability of this property for the allowed uses in the zoning
district, such as proximity of city services. Specific aspects of any future development on the
property will be reviewed at the time of development consistent with regulations then in
effect.
9. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings?
Value of the buildings in the area will be conserved because the R-2 Zoning District will
promote compatible and like uses on this property as are found on other properties in the
area. Future development in the area will be reviewed for compliance with the dimensional
standards and design review criteria to ensure its appropriateness for the area and
compatibility with the surrounding neighborhoods.
10. 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. In this case, sanitary sewer is located within the public right-of-way
adjacent to the property. The proposed zoning is consistent with the growth policy future
land use designation and is compatible with current zoning in the immediate area.

Sara -
To answer your question, the homeowner in this case asked the city for access to the city sewer
service that is installed in Two Mile Drive. City policy is that a property needs to annex into the city to
be able to tie into city utilities. The annexation is by petition, which means that the city is taking
action at the request of the property owner. The City is considering this annexation based on that
request and not as part of pursuing annexations in this area. No other property is affected. If other
properties wish to annex to gain access to city services, such as an existing homeowner with a failing
septic system as in this situation or for other reasons, we would take in the application to annex and
consider it at that time. I hope that answers your question, please let me know if there is anything
else.

Hello,
I would like to submit the following question on behalf of Bernard and Barbara Ebert, to be addressed
at the May 12, 2020 Meeting in reference to agenda items 1-3:
Question: Are there any additional annexation plans for this geographical area (specifically Westbrier
Court), and if so, what is the time frame for those annexations? Several residents on Westbrier Court
have expressed concern regarding annexation and the requirements regarding water and sewer
service that accompany annexation.
Thank you for your response,

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Question regarding annexation of neighboring property
Hi Mr. Sorensen,
Thank you so much for returning my call this morning. I thought e-mail might be a better way to
communicate since I know many people are working from home during this time.
I contacted you on behalf of my grandparents, who live at 64 Westbrier Court in Kalispell, just
outside the city limits. They received a letter stating that a neighbor of theirs has requested his
parcel be annexed into the city for sewer and water purposes (I am referring to File #KA-19-02).
If the annexation moves forward unopposed, will that have any impact on the water and sewer at
my grandparent's parcel of land across the street? They do not wish to have city sewer or water and
want to be sure they know the impact before they submit a formal opposition to be reviewed at the
May 12, 2020 meeting.
Thanks so much for your response.
Kind Regards,
Sara Ebert, Esq.
