City of Kalispell
OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
201 First Avenue East
Kalispell, MT 59901
April 22, 2024
Honorable Mayor Mark Johnson
Members of the Kalispell City Council
201 1st Avenue East
Kalispell, MT 59901
Mayor and Council,
This letter is to serve as the transmittal document for the Fiscal Year 2025 preliminary budget
for municipal operations. This message summarizes the proposed budget and guiding principles
for establishing the respective appropriations. This year’s budget is reflective of the
environmental circumstances the City of Kalispell has been facing over the recent history as we
have been faced with rising costs of doing business, especially found in construction projects
and capital equipment replacement. These inflationary costs are magnified by the enhanced
costs of maintaining an appropriate schedule of maintenance and replacement of infrastructure
needs throughout the city, emerging conditions to address, and the provision of services to meet
the demands of a growing community. While there are increasing cost centers within this year’s
budget to address these challenges, there are also areas that are being used to mitigate the
impact on the local taxpayer as we seek funding opportunities to leverage available resources.
In past years, we have avoided deferring needed improvements, recognizing that this approach
can create larger challenges in the future. This year’s budget presentation follows that same
strategy, investing in capital projects and operational components to maintain the quality of
services delivered by the organization, yet maintaining a long-term outlook that requires
flexibility and resiliency.
Previous budgets have recognized the challenge Montana municipalities face with limitations on
available revenues. As state law restricts municipalities to one half the average rate of inflation
for the prior three years, and new growth that has occurred from development, there is limited
opportunities to enhance the level of services, especially in the current environment where high
inflation magnifies the gap between costs we experience and available resources to address the
needs. This challenge was taken to the public this past year with the request for, and
subsequent approval by the community of a dedicated emergency responder levy that will add
emergency response personnel and equipment to address the public safety needs facing the
City of Kalispell. The implementation of this dedicated levy is highlighted throughout the budget
and marks a significant investment by the community to support these respective services.
In addition to the growing needs being addressed in our public safety departments, our other
departments are also faced with the challenges of maintaining services amid inflationary and
community impacts. Our enterprise funds have been at the forefront of discussions as we
address infrastructure improvements, a growing community, and a responsive approach to
emerging developments. These challenges carry into other areas of operation, including, but not
limited to, Development Services and Parks and Recreation. This year’s budget looks to
ii
address needs throughout the organization to prevent falling behind in respective areas, while at
the same time, taking a realistic approach to available resources as we maintain a long-term
view for the organization.
This year’s budget is presented within our fiscal policies, built on a foundation of maintaining a
20% reserve within our general fund. To achieve this, appropriations within the budget represent
technological and operational improvements that create efficiencies and limit the need for
additional personnel in some cost centers. While there are up-front costs to software, we do
save on the ongoing costs of personnel and the challenges of a changing labor market. The
more we can enhance efficiency in our operations, the better suited we are for long-term
service. While these investments don’t eliminate the need for new personnel in some of our
departments, they do help to mitigate the need.
The Council has historically desired to be 1-2 mills below our property tax limitation. Currently,
the proposed budget does not account for that target. However, the proposed budget has made
strides in decreasing the gap between expenditures and revenues. Last year’s final budget had
approximately $875,000 more in expenditures than available revenues (a scenario we had
discussed for several years as we invested in personnel in our public safety departments as we
built toward the dedicated emergency responder levy). This year’s budget is narrowing that gap
as the proposed budget has cut that number by almost 50% with a revenue gap of
approximately $450,000. I highlight this, as though we are making strides, we still need to be
cognizant of this reality and continue to take a cautious approach to new investments,
personnel, and programs. I anticipate additional carry-over funds from the fiscal year 2024
budget providing the Council with the opportunity to meet the traditional goal of being below the
maximum mill levy. This will be determined when we receive final valuations in August.
Finally, this budget continues to address our utilities and enterprise funds which grow in
proportion to the demands we are experiencing. Keeping up with these areas has been a focus
for this governing body over the last decade with updating infrastructure plans and associated
rate studies. The past attention by the governing body in this area should be noted, as previous
investments provide the resiliency to manage current challenges, including adapting to new
environmental regulations regarding emerging contaminants, specifically PFAS, which requires
further investments in our water infrastructure and is also anticipated to impact our bio-solids
program. Both areas have significant projects proposed in this year’s budget to address these
challenges.
I am pleased to present the FY25 proposed budget and am comfortable in the recommended
appropriations, the expected service levels resulting from this funding distribution, and the
efforts to position our services in the future. I am comfortable this spending plan provides the
Kalispell City Government with a foundation to move us into the future and face our respective
challenges.
This transmittal letter is not intended to identify all the specifics of the budget document, but
rather provide an overview of the revenues, expenditures, fund levels, unique attributes, and
significant budget related activities of the organization. Moreover, as changes will be
implemented between the preliminary budget and final adoption, numbers in this document may
be different than the numbers in the budget document itself.
iii
RELEVANT TOPICS FACING THE CITY OF KALISPELL
Traditionally, I spend time at the beginning of the transmittal letter reviewing recent
accomplishments within the municipality as a foundation for the upcoming fiscal year. This year,
however, instead of a review, I will spend some time in this section to highlight several of the
areas of focus that pertain to the budget or impact service delivery, both now and into the future.
Recognizing some of the issues we are facing can aid in providing context for the budget and
provide a framework for some of the needs and work plans within the document itself. Areas to
highlight within this section include infrastructure, land-use, urban renewal, and housing
development.
INFRASTRUCTURE
The City of Kalispell has spent a significant amount of resources on infrastructure in the past.
This holds true for this year’s proposed budget and will continue to be a source of attention in
the future.
Our utilities operate and are guided by modeling and projected areas of development within the
municipality. These facility plans provide a roadmap for infrastructure maintenance and buildout.
In the past, there have been some challenging discussions as we have faced large and
expensive projects, such as the Westside Interceptor, the tower and wells project, and large
road improvements, such as 4th Avenue East. As we look back, had we not implemented these
projects, our utility and infrastructure system would be falling behind, making it that much more
challenging to sustain the respective systems.
This year’s budget not only includes updates to the facility plans, but also large infrastructure
projects. These include, but are not limited to: 1) emerging contaminant mitigation driven by new
regulation and mandates, specifically related to PFAS and lead service lines, 2) a biosolids
facility that is back on our capital plan now that the county has elected to not move forward with
that project, 3) improvements in our Wastewater Treatment, including the EQ Basin and
fermenter rehabilitation, 4) lift station improvements, and 5) road and drainage improvements
including 3rd Avenue East and Two-mile Drive.
The focus on infrastructure is highlighted by the approximately $90 million in expenditures within
our Water and Sewer funds, with the bulk of that attributed to capital projects, many of which
continue to be supported by grant funding, including an anticipated $12-15 million for mitigation
of emerging contaminates (PFAS and lead service lines), and $3.3 million in a Federal
appropriation for Two-mile drive.
LAND USE
In the last legislative session, a series of bills were passed that dealt with land use and growth-
policy development. Due to the controversial nature of some components of these bills, there is
a current injunction on two bills. The primary bill, SB382, remains in litigation while the two
injunctions are under appeal. However, the legislative requirements of SB382 remain for
municipalities. As such, we continue moving forward with the requirements which will establish
new growth plans, annexation boundaries, and zoning across the municipality. This legislation
emphasizes community participation at the front of the growth plan development, when there
are not specific projects, but rather conceptual development. Because of this, over the next
year, we will be focused on public outreach at the respective stages to garner public input as the
new growth plan is developed.
iv
URBAN RENEWAL
Efforts continue moving forward with reaching the goals of our Urban Renewal plans. The two
major Urban Renewal Areas, the Westside and Downtown renewal areas have proposed
projects in this year’s budget, focusing on improving the road and drainage infrastructure in the
respective areas. It is also anticipated that projects will emerge in the downtown corridor to
complement the Safe Streets for All planning project currently underway and in the Westside
area with potential projects emerging with the acquisition of additional land from BNSF.
Respective Urban Renewal plans create specific strategies and goals that guide improvement
projects in the respective areas. As an example, previous public investments in the Urban
Renewal Area have facilitated private investment, including multiple multi-family housing and
commercial developments, both of which were specific goals of the plans. With the proposed
infrastructure projects in this year’s budget, we can continue investing in these areas to
enhance the overall economic and quality of life experience.
HOUSING
Below is a figure from the 2023 Construction, Subdivision and Annexation Report, identifying
the historical Single Family, Duplex/Townhomes, and Multi-family building permits issued on an
annual basis. Housing will continue to be at the forefront as Development Services look to bring
us into compliance with the previously mentioned SB382. I also anticipate housing being part of
the discussion once again during the upcoming legislative session as municipalities are faced
with supply and demand challenges and the impacts on communities, labor force, and
development.
v
PROPOSED FY25 BUDGET AT A GLANCE
Major highlights and conditions of the proposed FY25 budget include the following:
➢ Property tax is the primary source of revenue for the general fund. It is limited by the
allowable inflationary index as identified in state statutes and the development of new
growth. These two variables present respective challenges in sustaining operations, and
in establishing the preliminary budget, as follows:
o Inflationary index: Municipalities are prevented from keeping up with the rate of
inflation. State law limits inflationary growth to one-half the average rate of
inflation for the prior 3 years (MCA 15-10-420). Hence, while the inflationary rate
may be 7%, we are limited to an inflationary increase that is below that amount
per state law. This allowable increase doesn’t account for the increase in
inflationary cost of materials and supplies. For this fiscal year, we are estimating
the inflationary index at 2.8%, though actual realized costs exceed that
percentage.
o Municipalities also receive additional revenue through new growth within the tax
base. While we don’t receive the growth numbers until early August, we can look
at recent history to provide estimates. Our average growth increase in the
property base over the past 4 years has been approximately 3.25%. With growth
and inflation combined, it is quickly recognizable that inflationary pressures have
an impact on the ability to provide municipal services. It is this reality that led us
to request the emergency response levy, just as Great Falls, Missoula and
Helena have attempted or are in the process of submitting to the voters
(Missoula and Helena’s elections are on June 4).
Much like last year, this year’s preliminary budget is assembled with a vision toward the
future. Recognizing the fiscal limitations based on inflation and growth, it is important to
be cautious with adding new programs or initiatives, especially those with ongoing
expectations. This year, outside of the voter approved dedicated levy for emergency
response, we are increasing resources in some additional departments as necessary to
meet demands of increasing workloads within current programming. We continue to stay
conservative in the addition of new programs without a dedicated revenue source.
While we place an emphasis in adding resources that streamline efficiencies with
emerging technology, we are looking to add Assistant Directors in both our Development
Services and our Parks and Recreation Departments as workloads are reaching the
point where we simply need to add personnel.
➢ The recent passage of the Emergency Responder Levy is a significant component of this
year’s budget as we implement the levels of service that the public voted for. Cost
components within this budget will be analyzed with the revenue generated as we can
levy up to 60.9 mills on an annual basis. Major items contained within this effort include
the following for the upcoming year:
o Hiring and outfitting of 11 Law Enforcement personnel, including 8 patrol officers,
2 detectives, and a crime analyst.
o Hiring of 12 Firefighter/Paramedics (EMT’s). This initial round of hiring will staff a
dedicated fire response unit and provide resources to better respond to the
continuum of calls received.
vi
o Desigin and planning for the construction of the third fire station. We are currently
submitting applications for Community Development Block Grant funding for
preliminary design work and potentially a Community Facilities Grant to assist in
funding for the construction of the station. We will continue to look for available
funding sources to best leverage the dedicated levy funds.
o Refurbishment of an ambulance with an updated chassis to extend its useful life
rather than the full cost of a replacement ambulance.
o An additional engine is planned to be ordered to support the third station. We
anticipate delivery of an order to be 2-3 years.
o Just like the general fund, we have put together a 10-year forecast for the
dedicated levy, estimating revenue and expenditures (see the graph below). This
forecast serves as a useful guide for decision making and will be updated on an
annual basis to keep revenues and expenditures in balance. Like the general
fund, we will have to wait until the valuations are released in August to finalize
the budget (and the 10-year forecast).
➢A new fund has been established for the $3.3 million Federal Appropriation we are
receiving for stormwater, road, and sidewalk improvements on Two-mile Drive. The
appropriation allows us to improve this specific section that might otherwise not be
addressed.
➢We continue to see significant development and redevelopment activity within the
Westside and Downtown Redevelopment Districts. The Charles Hotel project and
corresponding Parking Structure are planned improvements, having just received
extensions. Several multi-family developments are anticipated to be completed this year,
adding housing opportunities in the redevelopment areas which address an identified
goal in the respective plans. While these are private, or public/private partnership
projects, we also anticipate additional public investment in the areas identified in the
Urban Renewal Plans, including infrastructure improvements in both areas.
vii
➢Last year, Council authorized the acquisition of a parcel on the west side of town that is
currently owned by BNSF. We have been waiting for BNSF to take the next steps toward
the closing of this parcel. We are hopeful this parcel will close soon so we can move
forward with the annexation and inclusion of this parcel in the Westside Urban Renewal
District. This parcel lends itself to use as recreational/community development project
due to its proximity to the Parkline and other trail connections.
➢Several planning projects continuing from last year will take substantial resources,
including:
o The Highway 93 trail design project. Upon completion of this design effort, we will
look toward grant funding for the implementation of the project.
o Senate Bill 382. While this legislation is currently being challenged in the court
system, our efforts are underway for the completion of an updated growth plan
and associated requirements under 382, as it has timelines that need to be met if
it is not overturned. We have applied for funding that will aid in the development
of this planning effort, including updating our infrastructure facility plans, which
are part of the proposed budget.
o Safe Streets for all is a current planning effort in the Downtown Corridor to help
guide the development within this Urban Renewal Area. This planning effort has
the potential to lead into a demonstration project funded through the Safe Streets
for All program and the into a possible full implementation project the blends with
the Downtown Urban Renewal Plan to complement each other with respective
improvement projects.
o The Solid Waste business plan development has been reaching timeline
benchmarks throughout the past year with updates and discussions at the
Council level. With each benchmark, we have received direction leading up to the
completion of the master plan and planned adoption later this year. This plan will
help guide our operation as we identify service delivery levels and operation
programs within the Solid Waste Enterprise.
➢As noted above, Council has held work sessions on the Solid Waste Master plan that will
help in forecasting revenues and expenditures, rate schedules and operations for the
future. Our Streets Fund has also been in front of Council this year, seeking direction on
service levels as we complete forecasts and potential rate schedules. Both service
reviews are anticipated to be completed by the adoption of the final budget in August,
with final decisions potentially leading to changes from the preliminary budget.
➢Equipment replacement is in accordance with our Capital Improvement Plan/previous
rate structure forecasts. Adjustments occur annually, based on the respective needs of a
department. By identifying capital needs as part of our planning efforts, replacement
becomes a practice, helping us maintain equipment that operates as needed and is
replaced accordingly. Moreover, when challenges emerge through unexpected
breakdowns, our base levels allow us to maintain a responsiveness and adapt to the
respective circumstances, such as when we needed to bring our patrol fleet back to an
appropriate level after facing systemic challenges that placed multiple cars in a repair
condition.
viii
➢Large infrastructure projects are scheduled with this year’s budget, including water
improvements and biosolids management. Though many of the projects have been
planned and have been incorporated in past rate studies, it is important to note the
responsiveness of our Public Works department to identify and submit applications for
emergency contaminant funding, which we anticipate receiving. This may be able to
address the recent EPA regulation of PFAS with minimal expense to our utility
customers.
The biosolids project is back our planning process. It had been removed as Flathead
County was looking at including this as part of their use of ARPA funding in conjunction
with a county-septic facility. As those plans have changed, we are placing it back into
our program of work as it is a needed facility as part of our Wastewater Treatment
efforts.
➢Another area that will aid in mitigating rate increases to our taxpayer is to focus efforts
for street and stormwater improvements within our Urban Renewal Areas. The adopted
Urban Renewal Plans include goals for these improvements. Focusing on the needs in
these areas will allow us to address infrastructure with Urban Renewal Funds and defer
assessment increases while maintaining the same level of activity in our work plans.
➢Health insurance costs from MMIA are projected to increase by 9% as compared to
7.5% last year.
GENERAL FUND REVENUE
Property tax is the primary revenue
source within the general fund. As
we do not receive final property
valuations for the current year until
the first week in August, we are
required to forecast revenues based
on trends we are experiencing. For
FY25, we are projecting an increase
from last year’s projection, reflective
of the anticipated properties adding
to the total market value in Kalispell.
To the side is a graphic
representation of our revenues by
their respective sources.

GENERAL FUND
EXPENDITURES
Expenditures in the General
Fund are recommended at
$16,196,655. Expenditure
categories are broken down
in the figure to the left. In this
year’s budget, capital is down
in the general fund, yet there
are significant additions in
equipment as part of the
dedicated levy and its
separate fund.
SPENDING LEVELS BY DEPARTMENT IN GENERAL FUND
The following table provides a comparison of general fund departmental expenditures from
FY24 to FY25. The table is included to demonstrate the funding levels for respective activities in
this year’s recommended budget as compared to the previous year. Changes may be indicative

PERSONNEL COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
Efforts have been made on an annual basis to provide equity across the organization as it
pertains to compensation. This process includes a market-based survey for every position in the
organization that incorporates an average of five data points representing municipalities with
populations larger than Kalispell and 5 data points representing municipalities with populations
smaller than Kalispell to establish a classification range for our employees. This market review
occurs approximately every three years, coinciding with the first-year negotiations of labor
agreements. This year, all our labor agreements are current and include a base adjustment of
4.5%. The benefit of our system is the market is reviewed every three years for each position,
allowing us to maintain competitive, yet responsible, in our compensation strategy, knowing that
every three years there will be a market adjustment, if needed, as part of the classification
process.
Health care increases for MMIA are projected to increase by 9% for FY25. To maintain lower
rates, MMIA participates in reference-based pricing and continues to encourage employees to
participate in their wellness program activities, which are designed to avoid long-term cost
exposures.
CONCLUSION
The fiscal year 2025 budget continues to be a representation of the past work of the City
Council, primarily in taking an aggressive approach to planning and the follow-up
implementation of adopted plans. This is most evident in our facility plans for related
infrastructure needs, but is also represented in other areas, such as our Urban Renewal Plans
and our departmental planning, such as police and fire, which provided a foundation and road
map that led to the successful passage of the dedicated levy. The implementation of these
efforts can be found in the preliminary budget document. These projects are represented by the
award of grant funds, direct appropriations, and the dedicated levy. The focus on planning
throughout the organization allows us to develop a budget with an organized process,
comfortable that projects that are being funded have been planned and analyzed as part of a
larger effort.
The proposed budget is presented as the upcoming fiscal plan for the City of Kalispell. The work
of the City Council and staff in establishing strategic efforts is appreciated as it provides
guidance for budget appropriations. With this acknowledgement, I present the proposed FY25
budget.
Respectfully,
Douglas R. Russell
City Manager

WHEREAS, the City Council acknowledges that the City of Kalispell, as a local government,
is vulnerable to economic uncertainty, unanticipated events, credit rating
assignments, and potential shortfalls in revenue cycles within any respective
budget year; and
WHEREAS, it is the desire of the City Council that the city sustain a strong financial
foundation for unassigned fund balances, but to also uphold a financial culture
that does not sacrifice the provision of municipal services merely for the sake of
fiscal targets; and
WHEREAS, the Government Finance Officers Association in Best Practice "Appropriate Level
of Unrestricted Fund Balance in the General Fund" identifies that a general
purpose government, regardless of size, should maintain an unrestricted fund
balance in its general fund of no less than two months (16.7%) of general fund
operating revenues or expenditures;" and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that it is prudent and in the best interests of the city
to establish a specific policy to guide the development and maintenance of the
level of unassigned fund balance within the general fund.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Kalispell, Montana
that:
SECTION I. The targeted ending unassigned fund balance in the general fund shall be
20% of the annual general fund revenues for that respective fiscal year.
SECTION H. Should events occur that require the use of the unassigned fund balance
that lowers it below the 20% level, budgeting adjustments shall be made
in the following year that realigns the unassigned fund balance toward, if
not to the 20% amount.
SECTION III. Unassigned fund balances above 20% will be budgeted toward
municipal operations so as to not create an excessive unassigned balance
of taxpayer provided funds.
PASSED AND APPROVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AND SIGNED BY THE MAYOR OF
THE CITY OF KALISPELL, THIS 20TH DAY OF AUGUST, 20 2.

GENERAL FUND
FUND #1000
The general fund receives 80%-90% of its revenue from tax levies (general and permissive health)
and other intergovernmental revenues (entitlement share, etc.). The general fund should have
enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay expenditures, less expected revenues,
through December (June). In the general fund, a beginning cash carryover of 20% of budgeted
expenditures has been sufficient to pay the fund expenditures through December if a balanced
budget is presented. Beginning cash carryover was 28.2% for fiscal year 2024, is 30% for fiscal
year 2025 and is estimated to begin fiscal year 2026 at about 20-22%.

PURPOSE OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
GOALS OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
INTENDED OUTCOMES FROM BUDGET EXPENDITURES:
The FY2025 budget for the Office of City Attorney seeks to maintain the current level of service in all civil

new software within Kalispell Municipal Court. This proposed budget includes updating this software. The
attorney staff shall maintain two full time prosecutors. The prosecutors are assisted by a full-time legal
assistant and will be assisted and supervised by the Chief Deputy City Attorney in matters of case
management and legal oversight. The Chief Deputy City Attorney shall also assist in the provision of civil
legal services in the areas of risk management, contract services, civil litigation, and will, on occasion, act in
the role of City Attorney when necessary. The City Attorney works and reports directly to the City Manager
in all legal matters of the City, including legislation, ordinance enforcement and personnel matters and also
confers directly with all other directors of the City as needs arise. The City Attorney is assisted by a 2/3 legal
assistant.
DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL: Attorney (4) and Legal Secretary (1.67).
The purpose of the Office of the City Attorney is to provide legal counsel and direction to the municipal
organization of the City of Kalispell, including its City Manager, its department directors, and the City
Council. This effort includes legal guidance on all relevant law and policy pertaining to the business of the
municipal organization, through resolution and ordinance preparation, city code maintenance, contract
development, and employee relations. Additionally, the Office of the City Attorney defends the interests of
the City through preventative legal management, litigation, and prosecution within the Municipal, State, and
Federal Courts.
The primary goal of the Office of the City Attorney is to provide high quality and timely legal counsel that
protects the interests of the City of Kalispell by minimizing exposure to loss and ensuring that the policies set
by the City Council are on firm legal footing.

PURPOSE OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
GOALS OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
INTENDED OUTCOMES FROM BUDGET EXPENDITURES:
During FY2025, the Planning Department will review land use applications and coordinate those through
the public hearing process in accordance with City policies and procedures. Staff will review building
permit applications in accordance with applicable zoning regulations and also provide zoning enfocement
on a complaint basis. Staff will begin implementation of the Montana Land Use Planning Act. Under the
Act, the current growth policy, subdivision regulations, and zoning regulations are largely replaced with a
new land use planning paradigm. The concept is that a land use plan is established with extensive public
input. The plan then becomes a guiding document for land use decisions, many of which, such as
subdivisions, become administrative rather than conducted through a public hearing process. When time
allows, staff will be heavily involved in the planning for Main Street through the Safe Streets for All
Planning Grant.

GOALS OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
INTENDED OUTCOMES FROM BUDGET EXPENDITURES:
AMBULANCE
FUND #2230
The Kalispell Ambulance provides Advanced Life Support medical response, treatment and transport of the
sick and injured, and public safety education.
DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL: Chief, Assistant Chief, and Clerk split (50%) with the Fire department,
and 8 Firefighters.
The goal of the Kalispell Ambulance Department is to provide effective medical response and educate the
community on safe living practices.
The primary outcome of the FY 24/25 budget is the continuation of emergency medical response and
outreach services. Focus will be on internal and external communication, EMS reporting improvements
and operational accountability. There are marginal increases in the budget for fuel, medical supplies and
equipment as there has been increases in those markets in part due to the continuation of inflation, supply
chain difficulties causing national shortages. In the 940 line, an addition of $205,000 to rebuild/re-mount
the 2016 box on a new 2025/2026 Ford Super Duty Super Cab chassis. The actual cost will be reduced by
the trade in value of the 2016 Chassis.
AMBULANCE FUND
FUND #2230
The ambulance fund receives approximately 40%-60% of its revenue from tax levies (general and
permissive health) and other intergovernmental revenues (entitlement share, etc.) thru a general fund
transfer and a special levy. The ambulance fund should have enough cash available at July 1st (and
January 1st) to pay expenditures, less expected revenues, through December (June). In the
ambulance fund, a beginning cash carryover of 25%-35% of budgeted expenditures would be
sufficient to pay the fund expenditures through December if a balanced budget is presented.
Beginning cash carryover was 1.5% for fiscal year 2024, is 1.3% for fiscal year 2025, and is
estimated to begin fiscal year 2026 at 2-4%.

LIGHT MAINTENANCE
FUND #2400
Light Maintenance funds are utilized by the Traffics Signs and Signals Division to provide visibility that
promotes safe and efficient use of street facilities.
Achieve lighting standards and promote light replacements with longer lasting and more efficient lighting
systems.
The FY 25 budget presents the continuation of maintaining the lighting system and providing reliable
lighting for vehicular traffic, pedestrian, bicycle travel and outdoor recreation. Expenditures are allocated
for new streetlights around the hospital area, and other potential areas throughout the City.
LIGHTS MAINTENANCE FUND
FUND #2400
The lights maintenance fund receives almost all of its revenue from property assessments. The lights
maintenance fund should have enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay
expenditures, less expected revenues, through December (June). In the lights maintenance fund, like
other assessed operating funds, a beginning cash carryover of 55%-75% of budgeted expenditures
has been sufficient to pay the fund expenditures through December if a balanced budget is
presented. Beginning cash carryover was 223% for fiscal year 2024, is 216% for fiscal year 2025,
and is estimated to begin fiscal year 2026 at 195%-200% of estimated expenditures.

PROJECTED REVENUE AND FUND SUMMARY
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Bridge and Road Safety and Accountability Act (HB473) was enacted on May 3, 2017. This bill increased the tax on gasoline to 31.5 cents (from
27 cents) in fiscal years 2018 and 2019; to 32 cents in fiscal years 2020 and 2021; to 32.5 cents in fiscal year 2022; and 33 cents in fiscal year 2023
and thereafter. A corresponding 2 cent per gallon increase to (29.75 cents) was placed on diesel fuel over the same fiscal years. Funds must be used for
construction, reconstruction, maintenance, or repairs of rural roads, city or town streets and alleys, or bridges. As of June 30, 2023, BaRSAA was
repealed, via HB 76 during the 2023 legislative session. Unused balances remaining in the former 15-70-127 bridge and road safety and accountability
restricted accounted were distributed in accordance with MCA-15-70-101 subsections (2)(b) and (2)(c) in a lump sum payment on September 1, 2023.
BaRSAA is now an ongoing fuel tax payment combined with Gas Tax.

GOALS OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
INTENDED OUTCOMES FROM BUDGET EXPENDITURES
The FY25 budget outlines the ongoing commitment to proactive maintenance, repairs, and
reconstruction of streets and alleys, encompassing pavement marking, overlay, chip seal, ADA
compliance, and sidewalk replacement programs. In response to the sustained growth within our
city, we have introduced a new snow plow route to enhance winter operations.
To support expansion of our road system and to ensure the seamless delivery of services, the budget
allocates resources for one new full time street operator. Funds have also been allocated for the
acquisition of a new dump truck and plow, as well as the scheduled replacement of an existing dump
truck. Additionally, investments are earmarked for the purchase of a loader and pickup truck
equipped with a plow.
The introduction of the new dump truck and plow is pivotal in enabling us to maintain the expected
levels of service for our residents, particularly during winter months. These strategic investments
underscore our commitment to enhancing community safety and mobility while addressing the
evolving needs of our growing city.
SPECIAL STREET MAINTENANCE
FUND #2500
To construct and maintain surface transportation, signals, and traffic controls that support economic
viability and promotes clean, safe, and drivable travel during all seasons.
1. To maintain city streets in a clean, safe and drivable condition during all seasons.
2. To provide the safe and orderly travel through properly designed and maintained signals, signage
and markings.
STREETS MAINTENANCE FUND
FUND #2500
The streets maintenance fund receives almost all of its revenue from property assessments. The
streets maintenance fund should have enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay
expenditures, less expected revenues, through December (June). In the streets maintenance fund,
like other assessed operating funds, a beginning cash carryover of 55%-75% of budgeted
expenditures has been sufficient to pay the fund expenditures through December if a balanced
budget is presented. Beginning cash carryover was 158% for fiscal year 2024, is 105% for fiscal
year 2025, and is estimated to begin fiscal year 2026 at 80%-90% of estimated expenditures.

The City of Kalispell received a Federal appropriation of $3,315,000 to fund the 2 Mile Drive Road and Drainage Improvement Project. The project replaces
approximately 360' of varying sized culverts and 750' of ditch restoration along 2 Mile Dr. The projects begins at a storm inlet in the west intersection of
Hawthorn Dr. continues east in the north ROW until ditch flow is piped under 2 Mile and Glenwood. Ditch flow is resumed on the east side of Glenwood until
the point of a CMP inlet at the FWP parking lot entrance. Existing culverts and drainage ditches are improperly graded and undersized. This project is
necessitated due to slow drainage which contributes excess groundwater to the area, affecting nearby residents (STX-43).

FUND #2215
DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL: (5.55 FTE) Parks shares personnel costs of Parks and Recreation
Director, Parks Superintendent, Parks Foreman, Administrative Specialist and four Parks Caretakers.
To maintain 292 acres of parks and open spaces, according to our Parks Master Plan and council's direction
and continue implementing beautification programs and maintaining current amenities.
The purpose of the Kalispell Parks Department is to actively encourage, provide, promote and protect
quality leisure opportunities, facilities and environments that are essential for the enhancement of the lives
of our citizens.
In FY25 the Parks Department will continue maintaining parks and green spaces by modes outlined in
master plan. This budget includes replacing one 1/2 ton truck, replacing office furniture at Depot Park, new
irrigation system with weather station for Depot Park, and facility upgrades to Woodland Camp Center that
include interior painting, replacing bathroom sinks and adding ceiling fans for air circulation inside the
building.
PARKS FUND
FUND #2215
The parks fund receives roughly 65%-75% of its revenue from tax levies (general and permissive
health) and other intergovernmental revenues (entitlement share, etc.). The parks fund should have
enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay expenditures, less expected revenues,
through December (June). In the parks fund, a beginning cash carryover of 25%-35% of budgeted
expenditures has been sufficient to pay the fund expenditures through December if a balanced
budget is presented. Beginning cash carryover was 69% for fiscal year 2024, is 48% for fiscal year
2025 and is estimated to begin fiscal year 2026 at about 25-30%.

FORESTRY
FUND #2600
DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL: (1) Arborist Supervisor, (1) Arborist, and Forestry shares personnel
costs of Parks and Recreation Director, Parks Superintendent, Administrative Specialist, Assessment
Coordinator and 5 Park Caretakers.
The forestry budget supports the maintenance of 10,678 trees in public right-of-ways by providing
pruning, planting and removal tree services. Forestry will also provide education on the importance and
benefits of trees in the community through events such as Arbor Day.
The FY25 Urban Forestry budget focuses on continuing to meet the prioritized schedule of removals,
pruning and planting, utilizing both in-house crews and contracted services. This fiscal budget includes a
mini lift.
FORESTRY FUND
FUND #2600
The forestry fund receives almost all of its revenue from property assessments. The forestry fund
should have enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay expenditures, less expected
revenues, through December (June). In the forestry fund, like other assessed operating funds, a
beginning cash carryover of 55%-75% of budgeted expenditures has been sufficient to pay the fund
expenditures through December if a balanced budget is presented. Beginning cash carryover was
146% for fiscal year 2024, is 157% for fiscal year 2025 and is estimated to begin fiscal year 2026 at
about 140-150%.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This budget is used to track the revenue from the permissive mill levy which provides funding for health insurance premium increases. Health insurance
premiums are budgeted in the General Fund by department. The revenue generated from the permissive levy is used to make an operating transfer to the
General Fund, Parks, and Emergency Responder Fund.
The State legislature restructured the method for calculating the amount to be levied with the permissive health levy. The calculation sets year 2000 as a base
year and calculates the average increase per governmental employee times the number of employees. Since it is an average amount it is not necessary to adjust
for single, married, 2 party, etc. The calculation takes into account the number of employees.

INTENDED OUTCOMES FROM BUDGET EXPENDITURES
The WWTP budget provides means to continue preventative maintenance and replacements of the
equipment within the plant. The sewer operation budget supports replacement of the aged sewer
collection infrastructure including a regional lift station on the east side of the city, over nine blocks of
clay sewer pipe, and the corroded inlet piping at the entrance to the WWTP. Rehabilitation of the
fermenter, a key component of the phosphorus treatment process, is scheduled to happen in this year
along with the construction of a new Equalization Basin necessary to expand capacity for new growth
flows. This budget also allows for the continued efforts to maintain permit compliance, permit renewal
efforts, and evaluation of long-term adherence to discharge regulations.

958 Lift Station #3 Improvements - Carryover $313,600 from rates, Carryover $242,190 from Impact Fees, and carryover $71,265 Bond
This project upsizes lift station #3 and the influent pipe entering Lift Station #3 from the existing 8" PVC gravity main to a new 18" PVC gravity main.
In addition, a new 12" PVC force main extending from the lift station to the west side of the Highway 93 bypass will connect to a new section of
12" PVC gravity sewer that will then connect to the Westside Interceptor. This project will alleviate capacity issues during peak flows and prevent
needing to upsize Trunk Line A within existing developed areas (WW-M-01 & WW-EX-09). Additional funding for this project is included in the
ARPA Budgets.

of storm water.
The FY25 budget for Storm Sewer provides capital projects to improve conveyance for existing
stormwater systems and improve water quality from a large drainage watershed that discharges to
Spring Creek. The budget continues to support an update to the facility plan which will model,
evaluate, and provide projects involving the existing storm systems functionality, capacity, and
necessary future system projects to support growth.
The storm sewer fund receives almost all of its revenue from property assessments. The storm sewer
fund should have enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay expenses, less expected
revenues, through December (June). In the storm sewer fund, like other assessed operating funds, a
beginning cash carryover of 55%-75% of budgeted expenses has been sufficient to pay the fund
expenses through December, if a balanced budget is presented. Beginning operating cash carryover
was 207% for fiscal year 2024, is 235% for fiscal year 2025, and is estimated to begin fiscal year
2026 at 220%-225% of estimated operating expenses.

110 Personnel Services - Includes an additional .25 FTE Water Resource Manager
Addition of 1 full time Water Resource Manager. Salary split between Water, Sewer Operating, WWTP and Storm Funds.
356 Stormwater Regulatory Compliance Program/Permit Fees - $35,000
The City of Kalispell is required to comply with Montana Department of Environmental Quality’s General Permit for Storm Water
Discharges Associated with Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s). The Permit requires the City to create a TMDL
section that is included in its Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP). The TMDL section will identify the measures and BMPs it plans
to implement, describe the MS4’s impairment priorities and long-term strategy, and outline interim milestones (i.e., a completion
schedule for action items) for controlling the discharge of the pollutants of concern and making progress towards meeting the TMDL.
Developing the TMDL section requires contracting with consultants to complete it in the time required. Additionally, the city continues
to manage ongoing permit requirements to effectively manage the DEQ approved stormwater management plan.
358 Consultants-Facility Plan/Impact Fee Update - Total $387,000 Carryover $237,000, New Appropriation $150,000
These funds support and update the 2008 Stormwater Facility Plan. Stormwater Facility planning provides planning and guidelines for
current and future stormwater projects within the City. Facility planning will update the City’s modeling and be integrated into the
GIS system, as well as support the development of future capital projects for budget and impact fee updates. $100,000 allocated
to updating the Stormwater Impact Fee Report.
360 Equipment/Building Repair & Maintenance - $8,500
Increase in funds include a 8' x 20' Steel Storage container for storage of pumps and valves. Cost of the storage container

957 Wedgewood & Sherwood Design/Survey - Carryover $50,000
Funds include design and survey work for a project that will replace an existing undersized storm sewer with a history of surcharging.
The existing sewer is inaccessible and follows the common property line for 4 residential lots between Sherwood Lane and Wedgewood
Lane. The sewer is anticipated to be replaced and upsized through pipe bursting. Additional downstream improvements north of
Kalispell Middle School on Wedgewood Lane are anticipated to include new inlets, 2 manhole structures, approximately 300 feet of
new storm sewer main, and approximately 200 feet of ditch regrading along Northern Lights Boulevard (STX-58).
958 Decant Facility - $150,000
This project will design and construct a decant facility for stormwater maintenance activities. The decant facility will allow
vacuum trucks that are performing maintenance activities on stormwater mains, catch basins, manholes and treatment facilities
to decant the trucks and provide a means to separate stormwater from debris which can be disposed elsewhere. The decant water
will be collected and treated and then the effluent water will be routed south to an existing ditch which drains to Ashley Creek.
The project will be located in the City Shops expansion area (STX-63).
971 Meridian Court Drainage Improvements-Total $460,000-Carryover $191,000, New Appropriation $269,000
This project removes the non functionable cul-da-sac and improves the stormwater system (inlets and curb/gutter). Once
the stormwater improvements are complete, the City will mill and overlay Meridian Ct (SLIPPA HB355 Prj-STX-60).

This project will reconstruct 3rd St E from 1st to 3rd Ave E. This project includes the replacement of curbs which are in disrepair
as well as the relocation and reconstruction of curbing to create boulevards. Sidewalk ramps at intersections will be brought into
compliance with ADA/PROWAG requirements. Approaches at alleys and driveways will be reconstructed where necessary to
comply with ADA/PROWAG requirements. Where possible, existing curbing and sidewalk will be protected. The project also
includes drainage improvements at 2nd Ave E and corrects conflicts with existing power infrastructure (STX-62).

GOALS OF THIS DEPARTMENT:
SOLID WASTE
FUND #5510
The Solid Waste Department collects and disposes of solid waste material from residential and commercial
entities to provide a cleaner and healthier condition for the City of Kalispell.
The FY25 budget supports the continuation of solid waste collection and transport operations to service
existing and new residential/commercial customers while maintaining a high level of service. This year the
City will finalize the development of a Solid Waste Master Plan. The Master plan reviewed the current and
future costs of service, supported alternative rate development, provided content to improve routing and
service efficiencies, and enhance service capabilities into additional areas of the City for both residential
and commercial customers.
1. Collect, handle, and transport solid waste in a safe and effective manner.
2. Provide solid waste services to the community of Kalispell in a respectable and reliable manner.
SOLID WASTE FUND
FUND #5510
The solid waste fund receives almost all of its revenue from property assessments. The solid waste
fund should have enough cash available at July 1st (and January 1st) to pay expenses, less expected
revenues, through December (June). In the solid waste fund, like other assessed operating funds, a
beginning cash carryover of 55%-75% of budgeted expenditures has been sufficient to pay the fund
expenses through December if a balanced budget is presented. Beginning operating cash carryover
was 70% for fiscal year 2024, is 91% for fiscal year 2025, and is estimated to begin fiscal year 2026
at 60%-65% of estimated operating expenses.

• City of Kalispell saw 1,180 new resident units constructed between 2022 and 2023
with 79% of those units multi-family, improving the availability of attainable and
workforce housing.

Discover Kalispell – FY25 DMO Plan Page 3
• Glacier Range Riders, a Pioneer league baseball team playing at Glacier Bank Park in
Kalispell.
• Kalispell is in the center of iconic natural landmarks: 32 miles from the entrance to
Glacier National Park, 10 miles to Flathead Lake, and surrounded by 2 million acres
of Flathead National Forest. Eleven state parks in the valley provide trails,
interpretative visitor services, and water-based activities.
• Kalispell’s Glacier Park International Airport ranked #3 in boardings for airports in
Montana in 2023. GPIA saw a total of 455,837 enplanements, an 8.4% increase over
2022. Residents and visitors have more options for business or leisure travel
through increased seat capacity year-round. GPIA is undergoing a $150 million
terminal expansion to handle increased traffic over the next 20 years. Phase 1 of the
new terminal opened in March 2024. Glacier AERO, a non-profit organization
represented by Flathead Valley business and tourism industries, serves to increase
winter and year-round flights through revenue guarantees and other partnerships
with the airlines.
• Logan Health is the region’s independent heathcare system. 2023 saw the merger of
Logan Health and The Billings Clinic creating a state-wide health system for Montana.
• Workforce Flathead, led by the Discover Kalispell Chamber convenes students, job
seekers, educators and employers to support the jobs of today and grow jobs for
the future including for the travel and hospitality sector. Additionally, the Chamber-
led Childcare Action Steering Council launched four childcare action teams resulting
in identifying 500+ childcare slots over the next two years.
Opportunities
• As the regional trade center for northwest Montana, Kalispell is holding steady as
the 6th fastest growing micropolitan city in the U.S. A measurement of factors that
show Kalispell is well-positioned for long-term sustainable economic strength.
Moderate growth continues in healthcare, advanced manufacturing and tourism.
• Discover Kalispell and the Discover Kalispell Chamber function as one organization,
each working to support the local economy, community vitality, business and
industry. We serve to Venture Boldly while remaining Future Ready, assuring
Kalispell is well-positioned for long-term sustainable economic strength.
• New indoor and outdoor sports venues came online in 2023 and additional indoor
facilities are scheduled to break ground in 2024. With the increase in available
venue Discover Kalispell can grow our sales efforts to recruit adult and youth sports
tournaments.
• Community development priorities include improved ground transportation to
lessen traffic congestion particularly during the peak season. Visitors need options
to get from the airport to city centers, to lodging and to Glacier National Park.
Discover Kalispell – FY25 DMO Plan Page 4
Challenges
Travel and Hospitality Industry:
• Visitation patterns in northwest Montana have shifted since the pandemic, summer
months now have available lodging capacity. Visitation trends can be impacted by
the U.S. economic conditions, travel costs, and local factors such as GNP vehicle
reservation system and climate conditions such as low snow levels this winter.
• Hotel lodging demand in Kalispell decreased 3% during 2023, and 10% since 2021.
RevPAR had seen steady growth since 2021 based on solid occupancy and strong
ADR. The recent double-digit drop in occupancy has created a decrease in revenue
Jan-Mar 2024. Booking for the late spring and summer are trending lower than
normal, shorter planning windows may attribute to that trend. (STR)
• Short term rental inventory in Kalispell and Flathead County experienced a fourth
year of increase during 2023, which impacts hotel demand. Although short term
rental inventory continues to build, 2024 data shows a slowing with a decrease in
OCC, ADR and revenue. Supply may have surpassed current demand. (AirDNA)
Northwest Montana:
• 2023 saw adjustments to the business market, primarily with increasing interest
rates and construction costs prompting a slowing in commercial and single-family
developments.
• Glacier National Park has continued the vehicle reservation pilot system for summer
of 2024. Separate vehicle reservations are now required for the west side of the
Going-to-the-Sun Road, North Fork/Polebridge entrance and Many Glacier areas of
the park, May 26 - September 8, 2024, 6am – 3pm.
• Climate conditions continue to become more unpredictable and severe creating
challenges when promoting outdoor recreation and outdoor sports and events.
Seasonal weather impacts include low snowpack, wildfires and unhealthy air quality,
low water levels impacting water recreation on Flathead Lake and fisheries
throughout the region. Outdoor recreation plays an important role as a driver of
visitations for Kalispell and northwest Montana. As climate events become more
frequent and severe, the need for product development to attract and retain visitors
becomes greater.
• Aquatic Invasive Species post a threat to the Flathead Basin waterways. Introduction
of non-native species disrupts the balance of native ecosystems threatening the
recreation viability in our area. Discover Kalispell will continue to support FWP’s
communications of Clean, Drain and Dry and watercraft inspection stations.

DISCOVER KALISPELL’S STRATEGIC ROLE IN FY25
A strategy to build economic vitality through tourism balanced with community stewardship
and development.
We acknowledge that while promoting destinations remains a cornerstone for DMOs, it's
equally vital to address the challenges posed by community growth. Discover Kalispell is
committed to integrating destination stewardship, management, and development efforts
to not only support local businesses but also ensure sustainable growth and prosperity for
our mountain community and tourism economy.

fostering balanced and strategic destination marketing initiatives. Our priority lies in

participating in conservation efforts for open spaces. Moreover, we aim to safeguard the
Montana tourism industry from funding disruptions and counter any misrepresentation of
tourism’s value to northwest Montana.

• Groups – segments looking for unique venues and experiences.
WHAT RESEARCH SUPPORTS THE DMO STRATEGY
Strategy: prioritize tourism marketing initiatives that increase visitations in the fall, winter
and spring. Occupancy data, as well visitor to resident ratio sentiment by residents,
demonstrates there is capacity to increase visitations outside of the peak season. While
shoulder season promotions are prioritized, decrease in average occupancy during summer
indicates the necessity for effective destination marketing and sales efforts year-round.
• Kalispell average annual occupancy (2023): 58%
Discover Kalispell – FY25 DMO Plan Page 9
• Average occupancy June-September (2023): 78%
• Average occupancy October – May (2022-2023): 48%
Flathead County has over 12,000 jobs supported by nonresident travel (ITRR 2022). While
shoulder season promotions are prioritized, the decrease in occupancy during the summer
months indicates the necessity for year-round destination marketing and business
development initiatives.
Montana Travel and Recreation Research
The Montana resident attitudes interactive data shows that residents want a balanced
approach towards tourism in the state. Flathead County residents recognize that while
overall benefits outweigh the negative (49% agree), only 22% agree that if tourism
increases in Montana the overall quality of life for residents will improve.
The Montana Travel Experience Survey of nonresidents shows that the trip planning window
continues to decrease. 1-4 weeks ranks high as a time frame to start planning route and sites
to visit. Planning activities is primarily done less than 1 week before the visit.
In that same study, repeat visitors to Montana had a positive response to changes of
flourishing downtowns, increased amenities and better roads and signage. But those visitors
were dismayed at the increase in travel costs, crowds, and wildfire smoke and adverse
weather conditions.

Increased Cost of Paid Media (CPM) and Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) Requires a Larger Media
Budget for DMO’s to Remain Competitive.
• Global digital advertising spend has increased 10.6% since 2022 and 18.9% since
2021. (Meltwater)
• Dentsu Global Ad Spend states that what’s driving the increase in spend is economic
stabilization, digital innovation and cyclical occurrences such as elections.
• Between 2022 and 2023 ad buy on Meta has increased by 61%, Google programmatic
display by 75%, search ads by 14%. As CPM increases it drives up CPA. (Linked In

U.S. Market Review – Travel Demand
Despite recent slowing, growth trends largely continue across sectors:
• U.S. domestic leisure: Trips have fully recovered to 2019 levels, though growth has
decelerated due to tighter credit conditions and the restarting of student loan
payments.
• Modest lodging demand growth in the U.S. will be supported by household
prioritization of travel, a continued rebuilding of business travel and group events,
and a rebound in international visitation (Tourism Economics)
• The latest STR/Tourism Economics lodging forecast expects RevPAR in the U.S. to
grow 4.1% in 2024, moderately slower than 2023 (4.9%), with an expected 3.1% gain
in ADR.
• International inbound: Pre-pandemic levels are not expected to return until 2025 as
the strong dollar and visa wait times continue to pose challenges, but 2023 ended
with international visitation at 84% of 2019 levels. The U.S. is experiencing a highly
unusual travel trade surplus with outbound travel outpacing inbound travel.
• Travelers still feel generally optimistic about their financial circumstances—especially
in comparison to the average American adult—and remain financially committed to
travel.
• A recent Longwoods International study reports 26% of travelers say financial
concerns will greatly impact their decision to travel within the next six months—
emphasizing the importance of value perception especially among lower-income
earners.

that the formula for fiscal year 2024 remain
the same as the 2023 fiscal year. All property
owners within the district will be assessed
a flat fee of $100.00, $0.015 per square foot
assessment and a taxable value assessment
of .0225%. Owner occupied residential
properties will not be assessed.
The formula would leave the overall budget
at approximately the same level as the 2023
fiscal year. After discussion of the new work
plan the BID Board of Directors believes
that the proposed assessment formula will
ensure proportional benefits for the entire
district.
Organizational and Administration $49,617
The BID uses this portion of the budget to support administrative expenses like
liability insurance, office supplies, downtown development conferences, financial
administration, holiday decor storage facilities and employs one full-time leadership
director.
Maintenance & Cleaning Program $35,000
Each year, our dedicated maintenance team plays a crucial role in maintaining the
cleanliness and beauty of our downtown area, ensuring that it remains a welcoming
and enjoyable destination for residents, visitors, and businesses. From watering
trees and flowers to collecting rubbish and maintaining corner flower planters, our
Downtown Ambassadors are the unsung heroes behind the scenes who keep our
downtown district beautiful and running smoothly.
Branding and Communications $5,050
In partnership with the Kalispell Downtown Association, the Kalispell Business
Improvement District launched a new look for downtown Kalispell. The BID
supports the social media, online, and other marketing expenses to help promote
downtown business development, community, and special events.
Development Activity $6,000
The KBID maintains partnerships with downtown businesses, property owners,
the Kalispell Chamber of Commerce, Discover Kalispell, the City of Kalispell and
other key community stakeholders to grow, improve and develop the downtown
community
Façade Improvement Grants $10,000
Through our façade improvement grants program, the Kalispell Business
Improvement District is committed to partnering with downtown business and
property owners to ensure that our downtown area remains a vibrant, historically
preserved, charming, and welcoming destination for years to come.
Downtown Event Sponsorship $2,500
The BID contributes funding to the Kalispell Downtown Association to support its
events, staff, marketing, and promotion of downtown retailers. Those events for
2024/2025 will include Frosty the Brewfest, The Spring Mixer, Ladies Night, two
Thursday Fest events, KreepySpell, and the Holiday Stroll.
Holiday Lighting $7,000
Each holiday season, the Kalispell Business Improvement District transforms
downtown streets into a festive lighted gallery, spreading warmth and cheer
throughout the heart of the valley. Decorations are stored in a leased facility near
downtown.
The Kalispell Business Improvement District received a grant award of $5,000 in
fiscal year 2024/2025 from Discover Kalispell to update and purchase new holiday
décor. With the granted funds, the organization purchased new lighted garland,
lighted snowflakes, and outlet splitters to enhance and keep downtown beautiful.
Summer Flowers $10,000
The BID purchases, installs, and maintains 175 hanging flower baskets and corner
planters throughout downtown and on the Parkline last year.
These popular floral displays not only add visual appeal to our downtown streets
but also create a warm and welcoming atmosphere to residents, visitors, and
downtown businesses alike.
