ANNEXATION
Emma McCartney Title Problem: South Meridian Road
An area at South Meridian Road and 7th Street West belonging to Emma McCartney has a
title problem. The original plat for Ashley Townshipowas filed in 1891, 6 stone monu-
ments were erected. A resurvey was done the next year and one monument apparently
was displaced and consequently the description altered. Some 20 years ago, Lot 8
was given to the County for taxes. Subsequently the area, in error, went to the
City. Taxes and sewer charges have been paid and there is a request to the City
to issue a quitclaim deed to allow Mrs. KtCartneg.-eglear title. In October 1969,
the County deeded the road right-of-way to the City. City Surveyor Zavodny has
recommended the deed be granted and properly filed.
Councilman Palmer -_-moved the Council give a quitclaim deed to Emma McCartney on the
area. Seconded by Councilman Nystul. Motion carried.
RESOLUTION #3505
Councilman Palmer moved to adopt a resolution,,of intention to annex State Roadways.
This is two sections of Highway #93 - one section is just beyond Highland Park
Addition going north to the city limits and the other is from 13th Street going south
to the city limits;.`• Seconded by Councilman Vidal. Roll call vote. All voted aye.
A Public Hearing.is set for December.Sth for the annexation of Certain Streets in
Kalispell.
A Public Hearing will be held on December 5th to consider adopting The Extension of
Services Plan for the Cite. The purpose is to identify present.sery yes and, based
on future need, an urban service area delineated within which the City would provide
services. The Plan will also provide mechanisms for financing of extension of.ser-
vices into areas of growth. Councilman Palmer urged all Council members to read the
plan, as prepared by FRDO.
Councilman Palmer stated that the area in the Meridian Addition which drew so much
cohbrovers�-when the city was rezoned, has changed since the mill closed and he
has asked FRDO and the City Zoning Commissionntoorecommend a zone for the area:
A portion of Woodland Heights subdivision has a title problem. The land is located
in Sec. 8, T28N, R21W, P.M.M. and is in the city limits. Parties holding title are
Edwin and Donald Anderson, Herbert and Gloria Sandon and the City of Kalispell. Be-
cause of problems caused by an improper deed exhibit, the County is unable to file
a recently prepared mortgage survey on the property. On recommendatioin of Surveyor
Zavodny, it would be desirable for the City to vacate the subdivision.
