All Minutes From 1972The meeting of the Kalispell City -County Planning Board was held on Tuesday, December 19, 1972, in the.Conrad Bank Community. Room. Members present were: Lur1p-(-I Jack Barrett - Co Carl Clogston ­6t yForrest Farris Co /�,0,4),Ha:r es]<d. H a mme r r. o Charles Hash C d Pete McC 1 i nt i ck +C1 A.1 Miron f9 Harold Moen _ Jim Shaw -Co Mayor Bjorneby - Ex Offico Others present were: Paul Kane 23 Guests The meeting was called to order by President Hash at 7:35 p.m. The minutes of November,28, 1972, and December 12, 1972, were approved as read. The Board discussed the formulation of an annexation policy concerning small isolated tracts of land. Mr. Shaw moved that a committee be appointed from the Kalispell Planning Board to work with the City Council in the form- ulation of an annexation policy with regards to annexing small isolated tracts. Seconded by Al Miron; motion carried. Jim Shaw was appointed to the committee. Al Miron informed the Board that the City Council rescheduled their regular meeting dates to the first and third Monday of each month. Considerable discussion followed concerning the Evergreen area. This Board has made unfavorable recommendations on two recent development proposals in the Evergreen area, namely the "West Evergreen" proposal and the "Reserve Drive Estates Preliminary Plat". Because of these recommendations, many of those from Evergreen here tonight seemed to be of the opinion that the Board is not well-disposed toward any development in the Evergreen area. Members of the Board and the planning staff made it clear that such was not the case; that the criticism of those two development 'proposals was based on the best information available pertaining specifically to them. The point was made, however, that a significant portion of the Evergreen area would probably be subject to the same development constraints; namely hazards of flooding and groundwater pollution ,and/or the undesirable development of good agricultural land for non-agricultural use. On the other hand, much of the Evergreen area would not be affected by these conditions and, all factors considered, could very well present some of the best sites for future urbanization within the Board's jurisdictional area. The Board maintains that making that distinction between areas ill and well -suited for urbanization, on the basis of the best information available to them, and, further, making recommendations on the basis of that distinction represents a major portion of whatever value they may have to this community. Al Miron pointed out the unfortunate fact that, presently, we find that good planning decisions on this level often encounter conflict with political and economic considerations when they reach Council Chambers or Commissioners' hearings. Harold Moen moved that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board, .when considering the making of a recommendation to the City .Council or the County Commissioners concerning a proposed plat, advise the applicant of the meeting in which the decision is to be made and request the applicant's attendance. Seconded by Pete McClintick; motion carried. Copies of the Third Draft Subdivision Regulations were, distributed to the members. Paul Kane explained the changes in the Regulations and welcomed any suggested changes or comments on the Regulations from those interested. Copies of the transcript,of the public hearing on the Comprehensive Development Plan were also distributed to the members. The Board discussed the election of the _eleventh member to the Board. Al Miron moved that a nominating committee be appointed to assist in the election of the eleventh member. Seconded by Jim Shaw; motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 10:40 p.m. Acting Secretary We the undersigned, members of the Kalispell City -County Planning Board, do hereby waive notice of meeting and consent that a meeting of the Board be held on Tuesday, December 19, 1972, at 7:30 p.m. in the Conrad Bank Community Room.

Members present were: Charles Hash Al Mi ron Pete McClintick Carl Clogston Howard Hammer Buzz Lund Jack Barrett Others. present were Steve Petrini Paul Kane Cheryle..Emmert The meeting was called to order by President Hash at 12:55 p.m. The Board met as a group to observe the property of Reserve Drive Estates and discussion of the property:.fol•lowed at the Devonshire Coffee.Shop. Carl Clogston moved that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board recommend to the Flathead County Commissioners and go on record as being of the opinion that the proposed use of land reflected by the Reserve Drive Estates preliminary plat is not consistent with good planning, in view of problems pertaining to danger of .flooding, pollution of ground water, and the misuse of good agricul- tural land; and: -that the Board recommend that the plat, as submitted, not be approved. Seconded by Al Miron; motion carried. Adjourned at 1:50 p.m. Acting Secretary The meeting of the Kalispell City-County.Planning Board was held on Tuesday, November 28,, 1972, in the Conrad Bank Community Room. Members.present were: Jack Barrett Carl Clogston Forrest -Farris Buzz Lund Pete McClintick Jim Shaw Mayor Bjorneby - Ex Offico Others present were: Steve Petrini Paul Kane 23 Guests The meeting was called.to order by Vice -President Carl Clogston at 7:40 p.m. The minutes of October 30, 1972, were approved as read. The Kalispell City -County Planning Board acknowledged Larry Thomas' resignation from the Board and welcomed Mr. 'Jack Barrett, who was appointed by the Flathead County Commissioners as a member"on the Planning Board. Steve Petrini reported on the status+of the Subdivision Regulations. Steve stated that -the Regulations are in the process of being printed and should be completed by the end.of the week. Copies will.be'distributed to the Board members upon completion., William Wheeler prepared an alternate plan for the north section of Highway 2, and he explained the plan to the group. Mr. Wheeler presented the plan to the Board for their review and comment. The petition for annexation by William and Janet Quirk was discussed. The tract of ground being considered is approximately 9/10 of an acre. Forrest Farris moved that the Kalispell City- d County Planning Boarrecommend to the City Council of the City of Kalispell that a tract of land in the Southeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of Section Twelve, T28N R22W, be annexed to the City of.Kalispell. Seconded by Buzz Lund; motion carried. The Board discussed the Environmental Impact Statement for Ridgewood Terrace Mobile Home.Park. Said Mobile Home Park is expanding its existing court to 10.0 additional spaces.. It was stated that the EIS was a very favorable statement, but the State Board.of Health is withholding approval until seasonal ground water tests are taken in the spring of 1973. The tests will.indicate if there is pollution of the ground water table. The Board agreed that the Board of Health's approval should be withheld until the seasonal ground water tests are taken next spring. Reserve Drive Estates was discussed. This strip of land is located 1 3/4 miles east of LaSalle and is being subdivided into 25 lots of approximately two acres apiece. Paul Kane discussed the three aspects he used in reviewing the subdivision. The three consisted of the ''Flood Plain Information'' prepared by the Corp of Engineers; the "Soil Survey" prepared by the U. S. Department of Agriculture and Us supplement entitled .Y-Engineeri•ng Properties and Soil Inter- pretations For Use In Resource Planning and Development", and the Subdivision'.s Circulation System. Considerable discussion followed as -to the aspects that were -considered in reviewing the subdivisi.on. The Planning Board will meet as a group to observe this property in the near future. The Board discussed the procedure for reviewing subdivisions and/or proposed annexations to the City of Kalispell. In March of this year, after several months of review with Mr. Schwartz of the Annexation Committee, the Board adopted and recommended to the City Council adoption of "Interim Platting and Annexation Procedures". Subsequent to.this recommendation, the Council by motion did approve the Procedure. The -Procedure did specify the time required for review by the, Planning Board. At this time, it would appear that the time, period available for the Board, Annexation, -Committee, and City Council to re- view and to act on proposals is the point of contention. Jim Shaw moved that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board increase their regular meeting dates by one meeting a month, thereby meeting on the second and fourth Tuesday's of the month; and that we recommend to the City ,Council that consideration, be given by them.to a possible change in. their meeting date from the first :and second Monday of.'the .month to the first and third Monday. Seconded by Forrest Farris; motion carried. . The Board"agreed to set the December meeting;da.te to the 19th instead of the 26th, which is the day after .Christmas.

The preliminary plat of Mission Village Subdivision was discussed. A copy of the rough draft of the protective covenants had been received by the planning office., Steve Petrini reported that he had a few questions that he wanted to discuss with Mr. Jellison regarding,the covenants. The Board will not take final action until the final plat is prepared and presented. The final plat will include the final.decision,as to the additional right-of-way for Reserve Drive, the park, the covenants, and the letter of intent. Larry Thomas moved that the Board conditionally approve the preliminary plat of Mission Village assubmi.tted, reserving the right to approve.the final plat and covenants when prepared. Seconded by, Pete McCli.ntick: motion carried. Mr.. Thomas moved,,,t•hat the Board; change the Comprehensive Plan to indicate property north of Highway 2 as being community commercial with a proper and adequate buffer between the community commercial and single family zones. Seconded by Pete McClin,tick; motion .carried. The ;G i!bson .annexation on H i ghway 2 West was d i_scuss-e,d. Steve Petrini stated that-the,Red, Lion wi l l soon be annexing to. ,the ci:,ty and that Mr. Schwartz had written them requesting that they come before the Board. No word has been received by the Board from the Red Lion concerning this matter. The plans were presented to the Board along with a sketch of the Gibson Store and a topography map. The Board will contact the Highway Department on access that will be provided to Highway 2. Mr. Thomas moved that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board conditionally approve the preliminary plat of Gibson Addition as submitted, subject to completion of the final plat and review of said plat by the Planning Board; and that a 60' strip of land be dedicated on the west boundary of the property for street purposes. Seconded by Pete McClintick; motion carried. The Board members were given copies of the Environmental Impact Statement for Ridgewood Terrace Mobile Home Park Expansion for their review. The Board authorized Steve Petrini to write a letter to Mr. Nunnallee requesting a 15-day extension of time to review and comment on the EIS. The Board will make its comment at the next regular,.meeting of the Board. The Association of Planning Boards meeting November 10 & 11 in Lewiston was discussed. Members interested in at -tending are to contact the .,planning office. Steve.Petrini reported that the revision of the Subdivision Regulations. had begun. Changes in the Regulations would be based on the reviews with the Subdividers,.Developers, Realtors, and Lawyers. When completed,,the Regula- tions will be presented to the Board. A meeting, which will be open to the public, will be held in which the Regulations, will be discussed. Jim Shaw and Steve Petrini attended a meeting in Helena with the Montana Highway Department regarding U.,S. 93 North. Mr. Shaw stated that the Depart- ment was very receptive and that they agreed with the Board completely that this type of situation should not develop. Steve stated that if the Department had a sufficient amount of money -to provide for access -roads, they could possibly carry the project out; but they didn't have'the funds. The Highway Department suggested that a letter be written to Highway Commissioner Vucanovich stating that the project be dropped until they could do it properly. The Board did not.agree..and recommended,St.eve to persist on the matter. It was suggested that necessary :studies be conducted to develop a design and program on highways in the a,re.a, but at the present time to have the emphasis•on the North area, Mr. DeVine -suggested that in the future it may be possible to form a coopera- tive effort between the Highway Department, and .the planning boards -of the area. On this basis, they could conduct a county -wide transportation study. While in Helena, they also talked to -the technical assistant at the Montana Environmental Quality regarding the narrowness of the impact studies. The.Board feels that other groups should be contributing to the Environmental Impact Statement, not just the Department of Health on the sewer and water aspects. Steve reported that in a letter to the' County `PPan'ning Board, the Environmental.Qua,lity Council. stated that the EIS' procedure was followed'by the Department of Health and -Environmental Sciences so the Council's legal involvement was terminated with the filing of the final EIS by the Department. It is possible that the Department would assume a-'Uroader'responsi-bility under the Montana -Environmental Policy Act but this is un't'ested' in the courts. We the undersigned; members of the Flathead -Kalispell City - County Planning Board, do hereby waive notice of meeting and consent that a meeting of the Board be held on Monday, October 30, 1972, at 7:30 P.M. in the Ford Building, Room 2. roc, The meeting of the Flathead -Kalispell City -County Planning Board was held on Tuesday, October 10, 1972, in the planning office. Members present were: Buzz Lund Harold Moen Pete McClintick Jim Shaw Larry Thomas Mayor Bjorneby - Ex Offico Others present were: . Steve Petrini Ken McGuire Cheryle Emmert The meeting was called to order by Acting Chairman Larry Thomas at 4:05 P.M. The Board reviewed the "alternative" that Steve Petrini drafted for the Bitney-Bruyer development. The Board considered the entire terrace area be- tween the Stillwater,River.on the west and south, Reserve Drive on the north, and the bluffs overlooking the Whitefish River on the east. Pete McClintick moved that the Board approve the following comment. Seconded by Harold Moen; motion carried. "Proposed Jand use of the terrace areas in Sections 5 and 6 T28N., R21W and the southern half of Sections 31 and 32 T29N, R21W indicate 3 - 7 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 357 net acres would be available for development. The indi- cated densities would produce: 1,071, = 2,499 dwelling units; 3,213 - 7,497. persons;. and .32,- .75.m.g.p.d. of domestic:. sewerage,. Proposed land use of the terrace area in the north half of Sections 31 and 32 T29N, R21W indicate 1/3 - 2 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 205 net acrese�-would be available for development. The indicated densities would produce: 115 - 275 dwelling units; 345 - 825 persons; and .0.3,- .08,m.g.p.d. of domestic sewerage. Combining the two areas would result in the following: ' 1. 562 net acres of ,developable land; 2. 1,186 - 2,774 dwelling units; 3. 3,558 - 8,322 persons; and 4. .35 - .83 m.g.p.d. of domestic sewerage. As a comparison, the City,of Kalispell has the following: 1. 1,000 acres of developed land; 2• 3,955 dwelling units; 3. 10,526 persons; and 4. 1.05 m.g.p.d. of domestic sewerage. It can be seen from the comparison, that the terrace area when fully developed would result in a large unincorporated community which could produce as much as 80% of the total of Kalispell's domestic sewerage today. Therefore, the terrace area located in Sections 5 and 6 T28N, R21W and the • southern ha l f of ' Sect'i ons 31' ' and 32 T29N, R21W should be developed with a dry collection sys- tem, said system being designed to serve the entire terrace area. The Board of Health specify at what stage in the total development of the terrace that the dry collector system be connected to the Kalispell Municipal System. Further development of the terrace should then be served only with sanitary sewer. The north half of Sections 31 and 32 T29N, R21W may be allowed to utilize approved septic systems provided the density proposed does not exceed 1.3 dwelling units per net acre. If this density is exceeded, a dry collection system should be installed and when the,specifi.ed stage mentioned above is reached, connected to the Kalispell Municipal System. The State Department of Health should be given the authority to require activation of the dry collector.system when the specified stage of development is reached. Development of'the total terrace area- will'crea'te an impact on the Kalispell school district and on existing access -roads and bridges to the 'a'rea. Should the population of '8,322 persons be reached, an estimated 2,400 students would be residing in the area. This figure.would require,approximately 83 new classrooms if the present enrollment in the Kalispell'school'system is main- tained. At the maximum population, approximately 16,600 vehicle trips would be-ge�nerated withi.h the terrace area. Present .access across the Stillwater River is not adequate to handle these volumes. New ) facilities will be needed at the existing river crossings 'and a new crossing of the Stillwater in the vicinity of Evergreen Drive should be pursued. The Kalispell City -County Planning Board does reserve the right to further comment on the Statement and its reply to said State- ment at such time as each new development or addition is proposed and reviewed by the Board." Acting Secretary The meeting of the Flathead -Kalispell City-County,Planning Board was held on Wednesday, October 4, 1972, at the Devonshire Coffee Shop. Members present were: Forrest Farris Charles Hash Buzz Lund Pete McClintick Harold Moen Jim Shaw Mayor Bjorneby - Ex Offico Others present were: Steve Petrini 6 Guests The meeting was called to order by Acting Chairman Forrest Farris at 12:15 p.m. The Board discussed the Environmental Impact Statement prepared for the Bitney-Bruyer Subdivision located northwest of Kalispell. Since the Board could not come to an agreement with the suggested "alternatives" in the Environ- mental Impact Statement, the Board authorized Steve Petrini to draft an alternative for the,subdivision. Mr. Petrini will submit the alternative to the Board for their review on Tuesday, October -1.0, 1972, at noon in the Coffee Shop of the Devonshire Motel.

The Board received a communication from Wilbur Aikin, State Department of Health and Environmental Sciences, regarding the Environmental Impact Statement for the Bitney-Bruyer Subdivision. This subdivision is only Phase I of a much larger planned community development referred to locally as Evergreen West. Phase I consists of 35 acres and may be embracing 388 acres in the future. The Board discussed the Environmental Impact Statement and the water, sewage, and soil problems within the general area. The Board expressed the desire to review the planned community as the development of certain sections begin. This would hold back overall approval to be sure that when development -begins in this area. that care is taken to prevent specific problems which may occur. The Board moved that a special meeting be held on Wednesday, October 4, 1972,.at noon, to finalize the Board's comment. Motion carried.

The Board suggested the 29th of September but Mr. Beckert would be unable to attend on this date. The meeting date was then rescheduled to Friday, October 6, 1972. Interested Board members were asked to attend. Steve Petrini reported on the September 18th meeting with the local realtors to discuss the Draft Subdivision Regulations. He also will meet with the lawyers to discuss the regulations on October 2nd.. Petrini suggested that a few members of the Board meet with the County Commissioners to discuss the Regulations since they feel the regulations are too complicated. Steve Petrini will contact the Commissioners to find out what day and time would be most con- venient. There will be a meeting of the Montana Association of Planning Boards on November 10 and 11 at the Yogo Inn in Lewistown.

Following the above alternate, the Board would recommend re- moval of sanitary restrictions contingent upon the installation of a dry col- lector system for future use at a predetermined level of development in the sub- division.
