REPORT TO: Doug Russell, City Manager
FROM: PJ Sorensen, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: KA-24-01— Woodland Park Apartments (Scoreboard)
Annexation and Initial Zoning
MEETING DATE: March 4, 2024
BACKGROUND: TCC Investments, LLC, Scoreboard Sports Bar, LLC, and Mitch Tormohlen
have applied for annexation and initial zoning of B-1 (Neighborhood Business) for property located
at 520 Lenwood Lane and along the east property line of 51, 55, and 75 Woodland Park Drive. The
property totals approximately 17,400 square feet. It consists of a recently abandoned alley right-of-
way and a lot used as parking for the Scoreboard Bar (the Scoreboard Bar itself is already within the
city limits). While no plans have been submitted, it is anticipated that the property will be developed
as an apartment complex. The application and review are limited to the annexation and initial zoning
designation for the property. A review of any redevelopment of the site would occur when plans are
submitted.
The property can be legally described as a tract of land in Block 3 of Phillip's Addition to Kalispell in
the southeast quarter of Section 8, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M., Montana, Flathead
County, more particularly described as Lot 12 of said Block 3 of Phillip's Addition to Kalispell and
that portion of the abandoned alley adjoining the West line of Lot 12 and the East line of Lots 13-16
of said Block 3 of Phillip's Addition to Kalispell, per Road Abandonment No. 522. The area to be
annexed includes adjacent rights -of -way.
The Kalispell Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on February 13, 2024, to
consider the request. Staff presented staff report KA-24-01 providing details of the proposal and
evaluation. Staff recommended that the Planning Commission adopt the staff report as findings of
fact and recommend to the Council that the request for annexation and initial zoning be granted.
Four public comments were received at the public hearing. The comments primarily related to future
development of the property. The public hearing was closed, and a motion was presented to adopt
staff report KA-24-01 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the
annexation be approved with an initial zoning designation of B-1 (Neighborhood Business).
Commission discussion concluded that the request was appropriate, and the motion was approved on
a unanimous vote.

B. Location and Legal Description of Properties: The property can be legally described as a
tract of land in Block 3 of Phillip's Addition to Kalispell in the southeast quarter of Section
8, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M., Montana, Flathead County, more particularly
described as Lot 12 of said Block 3 of Phillip's Addition to Kalispell and that portion of the
abandoned alley adjoining the West line of Lot 12 and the East line of Lots 13-16 of said
Block 3 of Phillip's Addition to Kalispell, per Road Abandonment No. 522. The area to be
annexed includes adjacent rights -of -way.
C. Existing Land Use and Zoning: The subject property is being used as a parking lot for the
Scoreboard Bar. The property is zoned county R-5 (Two -Family Residential). The Flathead
County Zoning Regulations state that the intent of the district is "a residential district with
minimum lot areas. Development within the district will require all public utilities, and all
community facilities. A duplex is allowed in this district."
0
Proposed Zoning: The proposed zoning is city B-I (Neighborhood Business). The Kalispell
Zoning Regulations state that the intent of the district is "a business district intended to
provide certain commercial and professional office uses where such uses are compatible with
the adjacent residential areas. This district would typically serve as a buffer between
residential areas and other commercial districts. Development scale and pedestrian
orientation are important elements of this district. This district is also intended to provide
goods and services at a neighborhood level. The district is not intended for those businesses
That require me outdoor display, sate
and/or storage of merchandise, outdoor
services, or operations to accommodate
large-scale commercial operations. This
zoning district would typically be found in
areas designated as neighborhood
commercial or urban mixed use on the
Kalispell Growth Policy Future Land Use
Map.
E. Size: The subject property is
approximately 17,400 square feet.
F. Adjacent Zoning:
North: County B-I

H. General Land Use Character: The general land use of the area is a transition area from
smaller scale commercial development to single-family residential. The predominant use in
the area is Woodland Park to the west. The subject property is near the entrance to the city
pool in the park. The area also includes multi -family development.
1. Utilities and Public Services: Water and sewer service are available within the Woodland
Park Drive right-of-way adjacent to the property. Any extensions necessary to provide

1. ANNEXATION EVALUATION
A. Compliance with the growth policy: Two primary means for managing growth in the
City of Kalispell are redevelopment/infill within the current city limits or annexation of
outlying areas. A goal of the growth policy is to provide a comprehensive, effective growth
management plan that provides for all the needs of the community, is adaptable to changing
trends and is attuned to the overall public welfare. Chapter 9, Public Infrastructure and
Services, includes a goal to "make public water and sewer available to areas that are in
close proximity to services," and annexation allows for such extensions to happen.
In addition, the city council adopted an annexation policy in 2011, with a corresponding
map, as an addendum to the city's growth policy document. The purpose of the annexation
policy is to give the Planning Board, the Council, and the development community
direction when property owners outside of the city limits are requesting annexation. The
property proposed for annexation falls inside the city's direct annexation boundary and is
adjacent to the current city limits.
B. Municipal Services: The City of Kalispell has an extension of services plan that details
how services would be extended to the annexed property. Both sanitary sewer and water
service are available within the right-of-way adjacent to the property. Any extensions
necessary to provide service will need to be designed and installed by the property owner
subject to review and approval by the Kalispell Public Works Department under the City
of Kalispell Standards for Design and Construction.
The site is currently protected by the South Kalispell Rural Fire District and the Flathead
County Sheriff's office. The applicants have submitted Notices of Withdrawal from the
Rural Fire District. At the time of annexation, the property will be served by the Kalispell
Police and Fire Departments. The site lies approximately 0.75 miles from fire station 61
and is readily serviceable by the city fire, police, and ambulance services.
Given the level of existing services available to the property, annexation will not
overburden the municipal services in place.
C. Distance from current city limits: The subject property is immediately adjacent to the
existing city limits line.
D. Cost of services: The property is located within the annexation boundary, which was
established based in part on the ability to efficiently serve the property. Once annexed to
the city, full city services will be made available to the property owner. Any necessary
infrastructure associated with this development will be required to be constructed in
accordance with the City of Kalispell's Design and Construction Standards and any other
development policies, regulations or ordinances that may apply. It is anticipated that
revenue would exceed the cost of providing services to the existing development. In
addition, there would be one-time impact fees upon connection to city services.
E
11. INITIAL ZONING AND ZONE CHANGE EVALUATION BASED ON
STATUTORY CRITERIA
The statutory basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by 76-2-303, M.C.A. Findings
of fact for the zone change request are discussed relative to the itemized criteria described by
76-2-304, M.C.A. and Section 27.29.020, Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. The site is currently
zoned county R-5 (Two -Family Residential). The applicants are requesting city B-I
(Neighborhood Business).

Esn Community Maps, ArcCIS com
1. Does the requested zone comply with
the growth policy?
The subject property will be aggregated
with property to its west, which is already
within the city limits. That property is
zoned B-I with a growth policy
designation of Commercial on the
Kalispell Growth Policy Future Land Use
Map, which supports the B-I zoning. The
map designates the subject property as
Urban Residential. The zoning ordinance
generally does not contemplate B-I as a
zone within that land use designation.
Under Section 27.20.070 of the zoning
ordinance, lots should not be split into two
or more zones if possible. It is important
to note that the growth policy is not in
itself a regulation. Rather, it is a policy
document that guides regulation. As
such, the mapped designations should not
be viewed as fixed lines on a map and the
appropriate zoning district for the
propeity as a wholle should be based on
growth policy map designations as well as the nature of the existing use of the property,
which is parking for a bar, and the existing county zoning that is in place. Under both city
and county zoning, B-I zoning matches the existing condition more closely than a
residential district. Additionally, the B-I is intended to serve as a buffer zone between
higher intensity uses and residential areas. It accomplishes that goal in this situation.
Taking into account the growth policy, the growth policy map, existing county zoning and
the existing use, the requested zone of B-I would comply with the growth policy and
applying that district to the entire property would be consistent with the zoning ordinance.
k'
2. Will the requested zone have an effect on motorized and non -motorized transportation
systems?
The access for the properties is onto Woodland Park Drive. Annexation and zoning of the
existing use would not change the impact on the transportation systems. The impact on the
transportation systems will be reviewed as part of any redevelopment of the property.
3. Will the requested zone secure sak1y from fire, panic, and other dangers?
Adequate access and public facilities are available to the site in case of an emergency. There
are no features related to the property which would compromise the safety of the public. All
municipal services including police/fire protection, water and sewer service will be available
uponannexation. Once annexed, any future redevelopment of the property would be subject
to city review.
4. Will the requested zone promote the public health, safely and general welfare?
The general health, safety, and welfare of the public will be promoted through general
city regulations designed to regulate allowable uses. In this case, the requested zoning
classification of B-1 will promote the health and general welfare by restricting land uses to
those that would be compatible with the adjoining properties and those in the vicinity.
5. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air?
Setback, height, and lot coverage standards for any development occurring on this site are
established in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance to ensure adequate light and air is provided.
6. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewerage,
schools, parks, and other public requirements?
All public services and facilities are available to the property. The development of the
property in the city with a city zoning designation would allow access to those services,
although many city services are already being used.
7. Will the requested zone promote compatible urban growth?
The requested zoning is consistent with the type of growth projected for this area and is
consistent with the current zoning in both the city and the county in the vicinity. The
proposed district maintains and is compatible with the established land use pattern in this
area.
8. Does the requested zone give consideration to the character of the district and its particular
suitabilily for particular uses?
The proposed B-1 zoning district is consistent with the surrounding development in the
immediate and general area. The proposed zone fits into that overall pattern and gives due
consideration of the suitability of this property for the allowed uses in the zoning district,
such as proximity of city services.
M
9. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings?
The value of the buildings in the area will be conserved because the B-I zoning district will
promote compatible and like uses on this property as are found on other properties in the
area. Any potential future redevelopment of the property will be reviewed for compliance
with zoning dimensional standards and design review criteria to ensure its appropriateness
for the area and compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood.
10. Will the requested zone encourage the most qppropriate use of the land throughout the
municipalily?
Urban scale development should be encouraged in areas where services and facilities are
available. In this case, water and sanitary sewer are located within the public right-of-way
adjacent to the property. The proposed zoning is consistent with the growth policy and is
compatible with current zoning in the immediate area.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Kalispell City Planning Commission adopt Staff Report 4KA-24-01 as
findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the property be annexed and the
zoning for the property be city B- I (Neighborhood Business).

Woodland Park Apartments Annexation Petition Zoning District Summary:
The proposed development associated with this annexation petition consists of multi -family housing buildings
with the possibility of first floor commercial space. The annexation application proposes that the annexed
properties, the abandoned alley and lot 12, be zoned as B-1 which is the same as the current zoning of lots 13-16.
This planned use is consistent with the permitted uses and uses permitted by conditional use permit for the
proposed B-1 zoning. The proposed property to be annexed is identified in the Kalispell Growth Policy and shown
as urban residential.
The proposed zoning district will provide safe access and lessen street congestion by providing off street parking
for residents and close pedestrian or alternative transportation access to city amenities including Woodland Park
and Woodland Water Parkwhere existing pedestrian safety facilities for street crossing are already in place. It will
also promote safety from fire and panic by abiding by current building codes and ADA regulations. It will improve
the public interest and prevent overcrowding and undue population concentration by providing much needed
affordable rental units for flatheadvalley residents and do soin a mannerthat is consistentwith the growth vision
for the City of Kalispell. The development will be served by city utility services, which already serve the existing
buildings on that property, and as such will provide the appropriate adequate transportation, utilities, and other
public facilities. This development is not out of character for the district and is consistent with the current zoning
and ongoing developments in that neighborhood. It also encourages the most appropriate use of that land by
addressing the needs of the public in a way that allows access to parks, trails, and commercial opportunities.

FROM: Board of Viewers
SUBJECT: Road Abandonment No. 522
Dear Commissioners:
Pamela J. Holinquist, Flathead County Commissioner and Dawn IN/larquardt, Examining Land Surveyor for Flathead
County, comprising the Board of Viewers, on June 22, 2023, viewed the following roadway requested for
abandonment.
DESCRIPTION
A tract of land in Block 3 of the Phillips Addition in the SE '/,I of SQction 8,'I'2SN., R 2 1 W., P.M., Montana,
Flathead County more particularly described as follows� That portion of the alley adjoining the West line of Lot 12
& the East line of Lots 13-16 of Block 3 of said Phillips Addition. Said tract contains 2400 square feet more or less
and is sub�ject to all existing easements and documents of record.
We found upon viewing:
1) The alley is developed as a one lane gravel and dirt road.
2) All property owners that would be directly affected by the abandonment of the right of way have consented
to the abandonment.
3.) The alley does not provide access to public land.
4.) Any public utilities in the alley would remain unaff cted by abandonment & preserved under
7-14-2617NICA�
5.) According to the Co. Atty. the law dictates that the alley Should have been annexed when the adjacent lots
were annexed into the city� It is unclear what portion, if any, of the alley is under County jurisdiction. ft is
our opinion that if this alley was not annexed, it can be annexed at the time the property to the east is
annexed & it would be LIP to the city to abandon the alley.
We recommend denial of the petition for the abandonment of the above described right of way,
Sincerely,
Pamela J. Holmqu
