WHEREAS, the boundaries of the territory to be annexed is contained in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and for purposes of this Resolution made a part hereof, and WHEREAS, the Flathead Regional Development Office has made a report on the Annexation/Zoning of the territory dated August 2, 1988, and WHEREAS, the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on the annexation and zoning of the property, pursuant to §5.01, Kalispell Zoning Ordinance on August 9, 1988 and recommended that the territory be annexed into the City of Kalispell and be zoned Residential Apartment, RA-1, and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Kalispell held a public hearing pursuant to §6.13, Kalispell Zoning Ordinance on November 21, 1988 and considered the report made by the Flathead Regional Development Office and the recommendation of the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission, and WHEREAS, based upon the Report of the Flathead Regional Development Office and the recommendation of the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission, the City Council of the City of Kalispell finds that the recommended zoning classifications for the territory is appropriate and conforms to the Kalispell City -County Master Plan based upon the following criterion: 1. Does the requested zone comply with the Master Plan? The primary text of determining compliance with the Master Plan is whether the proposed zone is consistent with the land use designation assigned to that area by the Official Zoning Map of the Master Plan. For the general area of the proposed annexation, the land use designation is "High Density Residential", which complements the proposed RA-1 zoning classification and the existing land use pattern to the north. Said adjoining property to the north is within the city limits and is currently zoned RA-1. 2. Is the requested zone designed to lessen congestion in the streets? Airport Road has sufficient capacity to accommodate the development potential of the property. Average annual daily traffic is approximately 2,050 for this stretch of Airport Road. Daily vehicle trips could increase by 6 to 414 trips with development of this property, depending on the ultimate density of build out. Even at the high range, congestion is not likely with the possible exception of certain inter- sections such as Eighteenth Street and U.S. Highway 93 South. 3. Will the requested zone secure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers? Annexation should help improve the provision of public services that will benefit public safety. Fire and police protection will be available from the City of Kalispell. Said services are sufficient to accommodate the potential needs of an RA-1 district. 4. Will the requested change promote the health and general welfare? The proposed zoning will promote the health and general welfare of the city's residents. The zoning is consistent with the Master Plan, which is a measure of general public interest. The zoning will ensure orderly growth and develop- ment and protection of individual interests. The proposed zoning will complement the zoning of the adjoining properties and maintain a residential character of the area. Associated development should have a minimal economic impact to city services. 5. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air? The bulk and dimensional standards of an RA-1 zoning classi- fication such as height, setback, and open space requirements will ensure adequate light and air for residential development. 6. Will the requested zone prevent the overcrowding of land? Development of the property will not create problems with overcrowding of land. The maximum lot coverage is 40% and sufficient utilities and other services are available to the property. 7. Will the requested zone avoid undue concentration of Pe Concentration of people is a function of land use density. The zoning will ensure that all density of development does not exceea the availability of services. Conditional review of all multiple dwelling uses will also consider the issue of "concentration". S. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewerage, schools, parks, and other public requirements? The subject property is slightly more than two (2) acres in size. The impact of zoning this size of tract for apartment use should have a negligible impact on public services. Much of the necessary infrastructure, such as roads, water, and sewer are currently available and of sufficient capacity to serve the anticipated demands of the zone. The existing school and park facilities should also be adequate to serve the residents of the property. 9. Does the requested zone give consideration to the articular suitability of t e property for particular uses? The property is flat, adjoins a public road, and is readily serviceable by utilities. These characteristics combine to create a highly desirable tract of land for high density uses. 10. Does the _requested zone give reasonable consideration to the character of the district? The general character of the adjoining area to the north is "urban residential" whereas the other adjoining properties west of Airport Road are "rural residential". The City Airport facilities are located on the east side of Airport Road. The proposed RA-1 zoning classification would be compatible with these surrounding uses. 1 1 1 11. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings? The proposed zoning will help maintain the residential character of the area by preventing the intrusion of non - compatible uses that might adversely affect adjoining property values. 12. Will the requested zone encourage the most appropriate use of the land throughout the municipality? The Kalispell City -County Master Plan indicates that this area, when considered on a citywide basis, is best suited to high density residential uses. The necessary public services are available to the property to adequately accommo- date the level of development that might be anticipated by an RA-1 zoning classification.
