Narda Wilson represented the Tri-City Planning Office. There were approximately 16 people in the audience.

RAVEN ROCK SUBDIVISION A request by Tim Birk for an initial zoning designation of R- INITIAL ZONING UPON 3, Residential, on approximately six acres and RA-1, Low ANNEXATION Density Residential Apartment, on approximately 2 acres, located on the north side of Three Mile Drive and one-half mile west of North Meridian Road upon annexation to the City of Kalispell. RAVEN ROCK SUBDIVISION A request by Tim Birk for preliminary plat approval of a 37- PRELIMINARY PLAT lot residential subdivision on approximately eight acres. A request for annexation and initial zoning of R-3 and RA-1 has been filed concurrently. STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson, with the Tri-City Planning Office, gave a # -03-13 AND P-03-8 presentation of staff report KA-03-13, a request for initial zoning upon annexation of approximately 8 acres located at the northeast corner of Three Mile Drive and one-half mile west of North Meridian Road. Wilson also gave a presentation of staff report KPP-03-8, a request for preliminary plat approval of a 37-lot residential subdivision that was filed concurrently with the annexation and initial zoning request. Wilson stated there has been quite a lot of activity in the area, and this property is located on the north side of Three Mile Drive, one half mile east of Stillwater Drive. She said the property is currently zoned County SAG-10, and the total area proposed for proposed for development is about eight acres. Wilson noted that the property is currently in the County zoning jurisdiction and is in West Wide Zoning District and is part of the West Valley Overlay District, which has a density of one dwelling per five acres. The applicant is Kalispell City Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of July 8, 2003 Page 1 of 12 proposing annexing for to the city to obtain water and sewer services and is requesting a zoning designation of R-3, a single family district on approximately two-thirds of the property to the north and RA-1, Low Density Apartment, on the southern one third. Wilson stated that the existing land uses in the area are urban single family residential homes to the north, Northview Heights, which was recently annexed and Phase 1 is under construction. She said that the area has been planned and platted for the same type of urban residential development. To the east, there are urban sized lots where utilities available, and to the south there are some fairly large parcels in the county. She stated the area is in transition, from agricultural to urban uses. Wilson commented that the master plan designates this area as Urban Residential, with three to 12 dwelling units per acre. This development has a density of five to six dwelling units per acre on the R-3 area, and 14 dwelling units in the RA-1 area. She said the overall maximum density would be eight dwellings per acre, well within the Urban Residential designation of the growth policy and that the proposed zoning would be consistent with the type of growth anticipated for the area. Wilson noted on the subdivision lies on the east side of recently extended North Riding Road. There are a total of 37 lots being platted, 27 of which are being zoned R-3, and 10 lots designated as RA-1. She noted the R-3 district has a minimum lot size requirement of R-1 and the RA-1 zone has a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet, plus 3,000 square feet for each additional unit beyond duplex. Any multi- family development would require a conditional use permit. The existing single family residence would likely be relocated. Wilson stated that the applicant indicated the area proposed for RA-1 would be developed as duplexes, but that was an error and that they can either developed as single family residences, duplexes, or, if someone were to buy multiple lots, they could do a multi -family development with a conditional use permit. She said the applicant would like to keep the option open for a small multi -family development along the southern boundary. She stated that a minor changes need to be made to a few lots for zoning compliance that deal with lot with and would require a little rearranging. Wilson stated that during site review, the public works department felt that North Riding Road should be designated as a collector road due to development potential to the north. The Kalispell Design and Construction Standards require a 300 foot offset for a collector roadway for a new accesses. Therefore the two accesses need to be consolidated into one Kalispell City Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of July 8, 2003 Page 2 of 12 access and that has been included as one of the conditions. The subdivision design will need to be modified slightly to accommodate this change. She noted the property to the west has been approved for Phase 3 of Northview Heights and has a subdivision road that is currently undeveloped. The two roads will align with the new reconfiguration and create a four way intersection, but probably not a four way stop. Wilson said the single access triggers a requirement for secondary access for the fire department which would likely come off of Three Mile Drive although there are a couple of options to create a secondary access. The developer could use "grass crete", which is a compacted, subsurface material that grass would grow on, but that fire trucks could drive across year round without sinking. The secondary access would be gated or have bollards in place and used for emergency access only. The secondary access could be used by pedestrians to access Three Mile Drive and the bike and pedestrian trail. Wilson stated that with these are noted as conditions of approval and the fire access can be coordinated with the fire department. Wilson noted that consistent with other subdivisions in the area, staff is recommending that bike and pedestrian access along Three Mile within the 20 foot buffer be installed prior to final plat approval. She said the property has some moderate slopes, but no risk to environment and no development constraints. Water and sewer would be extended from Riding Road to the west and looped through the subdivision, and that all lots would be served by City water and sewer. Wilson said as for the parkland dedication, the developer wants to pay cash in lieu of parkland. She stated the area is 6.37 acres in lots which would be 0.7 acres of parkland dedication, or $12,600 cash in lieu. Wilson noted that there are two city parks fairly close by, with Sunset Park to the east, and Empire Estates to the west will have an approximately two acre park, and the City ball fields are to the north. She said that the police and fire impacts are moderate, but that cumulative impacts of growth affect both departments. Wilson reiterated that modifications need to be made to the lots in order to comply with zoning. She stated that the lots were sort of staggered in order to provide some creativity, but the lots need to meet the minimum lot width requirements of 60 feet. She said that there are no variances and that it does comply with zoning and subdivision standards She said that staff is making two recommendations on the proposal: initial zoning of R-3 and RA-1, and approve the preliminary plat subject to the listed conditions.. Kalispell City Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of July 8, 2003 Page 3 of 12 PUBLIC BEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak on the issue. PLICANT/AGENCIES Tim Birk, 880 Farm Road, applicant and owner of the property, said he did a new loop design. He stated that it is j an infill project on a gently sloping site, located within 500 j feet of the proposed Kalispell Bypass The RA-1 section will front Three Mile Drive as a buffer area to the single family residences. Birk handed out a potential redesign on the plat that showed a single access from North Riding Road. PUBLIC COMMENT There were no comments from the public either in favor or in opposition to the proposal. No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was closed. MOTION (INITIAL ZONING) Atkinson moved and Anderson seconded to adopt staff report KA-03-13 as findings of fact and, based on these findings, recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the initial zoning for this property should be R-3, Urban Residential, and RA-1, Low Density Residential Apartment, upon annexation to the City of Kalispell as indicated on the attached exhibit. BOARD DISCUSSION Atkinson asked about parks. He stated that there is a lot of cash in lieu of parks and that he understands both sides of the issue, that cash in lieu takes care of the existing parks. He stated that he understands that smaller parks are not that desirable, because the Parks Department has to take care of them. He asked if there was a formula for parks. Wilson answered that there is specific criteria for City parks. They have to be a minimum of one acre in size and then other parks in the area have bearing on whether or not a new park is appropriate. She stated that there is specific language in state statutes that speaks to the stated preference of the developer and that consideration has to be given to their preference. In this case the subdivision would need to be bigger in order to make a park work. Hull wanted to clarify the area next to Three Mile Drive will be RA-1 and Wilson answered it would be about a 200 foot lot depth, and that the lot boundaries will follow that. ROLL CALL The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote. MOTION Anderson moved and Johnson seconded to adopt staff report KPP-03-8 as findings of fact and recommend approval of Raven Rock Subdivision preliminary plat subject to the conditions outlined in the staff report. Kalispell City Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of July 8, 2003 Page 4 of 12 BOARD DISCUSSION Norton questioned whether or not the board should be voting on the preliminary plat until there is a more finalized version of the plat with the required revisions. Wilson said that there are typically minor revisions to a plat, but that the board will not likely see a whole lot of difference overall. She indicated the roadways would be consolidated, but that the basic configuration would remain the same. She stated that the developer will have to redesign subdivision within the constraints that are outlined. She stated that the plats go through a design review phase before the final plat is submitted that this often times will result in minor modifications to the original design. Atkinson stated that he likes a gridded road system, and that this development does not have one. He said that it might have been a good idea to have a lot be set aside for an easement for a road headed east, because we don't know what is going to happen to that next property. He stated that subdivisions are choosing not to be involved with one another and that every time we can, we should look at a gridded system so they can connect with one another. Taylor noted that because the preliminary plat approval is valid for three years, isn't it possible that the property to the east could come before the board, and couldn't one of the phases of this project be altered somehow to adopt a grid system? Wilson answered that the developers could do it independent of the conditions of approval, but the statutes specifically say that subsequent conditions cannot be placed on a plat after approval by the governing body. There was discussion regarding the grid system and interconnected subdivisions. ROLL CALL I The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote. SANTA AND MCKINNON A request by John Santa and John McKinnon, for a CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT conditional use permit to allow a community residential REQUEST facility for eight or fewer people in an R-3, Urban Residential zoning district, located on the southeast corner of Fifth Avenue East and Second Street East.

A public hearing on this proposal has been scheduled before the planning board for July 8, 2003 in the Kalispell City Council Chambers. The planning board will forward a recommendation to the city council for final action. BACKGROUND: A petition to annex and request for initial zoning of R-3, an Urban Residential zoning designation on six acres, and RA-1, a Low Density Residential Apartment zoning designation on two acres has been filed concurrently with this preliminary plat. The property contains approximately 8.01 acres and is located on the northeast corner of Three Mile Drive and North Riding Road.

Nature of Application: This is a request for preliminary plat • approval of a 37 lot residential subdivision on approximately eight acres in the northwest part of Kalispell. This property is being proposed for annexation into the city of Kalispell concurrently with the preliminary plat and given a zoning designation of R-3, an Urban Residential zoning designation that is intended primarily for single-family homes and has a minimum . lot size requirement of 7,000 square feet on approximately six acres. On approximately two acres a zoning designation of RA-1, a Low Density Residential Apartment zoning district has been proposed. The RA-1 district allows single-family homes and duplexes as permitted uses and multi -family dwellings as conditionally permitted uses. This zoning district has a minimum lot size requirement of 6,000 square feet for the first duplex plus an additional 3,000 square feet for each unit beyond a duplex. 1 The subdivision would be developed utilizing water and sewer extensions to the north. There are two accesses indicated on North Riding Road, creating a looped roadway within the subdivision. The area proposed for the RA-1 zoning have generally 6,000 square foot lots which would accommodate a duplex as a permitted use. The only way additional dwellings could be placed on the property to create a multi -family development would be if two or more lots were aggregated and a conditional use permit were granted. The developer has proposed paying cash in lieu of parkland dedication. C. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property proposed for subdivision lies at the northeast corner of Three Mile Drive and North Riding Road approximately one-half mile from North Meridian Road. The property can be described as Assessor's Tract 6A in Section 1, Township 28 North, Range 22 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.

There are some large parcels in the area that have good development potential once City services are extended to the area with one of the largest parcels at the northeast corner of Three Mile Drive and Stillwater Road having been annexed to the City with urban residential zoning designations. H. Zoning: Currently this property is located in the County zoning jurisdiction and has a zoning designation of SAG-10, Suburban Agricultural, a zone with a 10-acre minimum lot size requirement intended for limited agriculture and ranchettes.

At those meetings, there were some concerns about the two accesses proposed onto North Riding Road and the lack of alignment to the proposed subdivision road to the west. The public works department considers North Riding Road to be a collector and therefore requires an offset of 300 feet or alignment with the roadway. The fire department has concerns about a single access rather than two accesses. The public works department and fire department will work with the developer regarding the roadway location to insure that their concerns are met and that the subdivision complies with City standards. There was some concern regarding the configuration of the lots and compliance with minimum lot width requirements of zoning. These issues would be addressed as conditions of approval for the subdivision. There was discussion regarding the park monies and the fact that there is an undeveloped City park to the east that could be developed. REVIEW AND FTNDTNGS OF FACT This application is reviewed as a major subdivision in accordance with statutory criteria and the Kalispell City Subdivision Regulations. A. Effects on Health and Safety: Eim: This subdivision would be in the service area of the Kalispell Fire Department. The property can be considered to be at low risk of fire because the subdivision and homes within the subdivision would be constructed in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code and have access which meets City standards. All of the lots will abut a street that has been constructed to City standards. The property does not have steep slopes or woody fuels. Hydrants will be required to be placed in compliance with the requirements of the Uniform Fire Code and the approved by the fire chief. The fire access and suppression system should be installed and approved by the fire department prior to final plat approval because of potential problems with combustible construction taking 3 place prior to adequate fire access to the site being developed. There was some concern by the fire department and public works department that the waterline may need to be looped in order to gain adequate water pressure to meet the needed fire flows for the hydrants. With the reconfiguration of the roadway design consolidating two accesses into one access along North Riding Road, it necessitates a provision for secondary access from the subdivision. Secondary access can be achieved from several points, but the most likely location would be off of Three Mile Drive. The access would require approval from the Montana Department of Transportation and would be gated and used for emergency access only. Flooding: According to FIRM Panel # 1805D dated 9 / 30 / 92 there are no areas of the 100-year floodplain within the site and no other obvious constraints on the property that would lead to a flood -prone situation. Access: Access to the subdivision would be from a new internal roadway that will access onto North Riding Road. This road is indicated as a looped roadway with two accesses onto North Riding Road. An undeveloped subdivision lies immediately to the west of this property which has a roadway access onto North Riding Road about midway in the property. The public works department anticipates that North Riding Road will develop into a collector street at some point in the future as additional urban development expands to the north. With this designation as a collector street, a 300 foot off -set requirement for the roadway between existing roads will be necessary. Therefore, in order to meet this requirement, a single access into the subdivision will need to be made, thereby consolidating the proposed two accesses into one access that aligns with the proposed undeveloped roadway to the west. With the consolidation of the two accesses into a single access, a secondary emergency access will need to be provided as part of compliance with the Uniform Fire Code. The location of the secondary emergency access will needed to be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Fire Marshal and constructed prior to the development of 20 homes or more. This secondary emergency access can be provided from Three Mile Drive, North Riding Road or through private property. Any of these accesses will require approval from the appropriate party, i.e. Montana Department of Transportation for the Three Mile Drive access, City of Kalispell for access onto North Riding Road or an easement from private property owners granting an emergency access easement. Roads that are part of the fire access and suppression system within the subdivision should be completed prior to final plat submittal so that the fire department can have access to the homes under construction within the subdivision. There is lack of pedestrian access along Three Mile Drive which should be addressed even on an incremental basis. Staff would recommend that a pedestrian access along this roadway be coordinated with the public works department, parks and recreation department and the Montana Department of Transportation. A 20-foot landscape buffer is indicated on the preliminary plat which should be used to incorporate a bike and pedestrian trail as well as buffering in the form of a berming or landscaping or both. EI E. Effects on Wildlife and Wildlife Habitat: This property is generally level with a gentle slope and was used for agricultural purposes. There may be some migratory birds and occasional deer may visit the site, however, this area does not provide significant habitat for wildlife. C. Effects on the Natural Environment: Surface and groundwater: This subdivision will be served by public water and sewer thereby minimizing any potential impacts to the groundwater. No surface water is in close enough proximity to the site to create concerns with regard to this development. There is no floodplain in the area or on the property. The Spring Creek drainage lies to the west and to the south, but is not in close proximity to this property. Drain This site is relatively level and does not pose any unusual challenges to site drainage. Curbs and gutters will be installed and a storm drain management plan will have to be developed to address the runoff from the site. There is no City storm drain system in the immediate area and storm water will have to be managed using on -site retention methods as part of the stormwater management plan. The drainage plan will have to comply with the City of Kalispell's standards and State standards and will be required to be designed by a professional engineer. D. Effects on Local Services: Water: Water service to the subdivision would be provided by the City of Kalispell and extended from a water main that lies to the west of this subdivision along North Riding Road. The water main would be extended from its current location within the public right-of-way to the west and will not require any easements through private property. The water main would be extended through the subdivision. It is uncertain at this juncture when the water loop connection for the subdivision may be required since it will depend on the fire flows that can be obtained and whether they will meet the requirements of the Uniform Fire Code and whether or not the subdivision is phases. Most likely the water system will be completed prior to final plat submittal. The water system for the subdivision will be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department and the Kalispell Fire Department as part of the development of the subdivision. There is adequate capacity within the City's water system to accommodate this development. Sew " : Sewer service will be provided by the City of Kalispell with an extension of existing sewer mains from their existing location within North Riding Road right- of-way. No easements for the sewer would need to be acquired from private property owners. Design and construction of the mains will be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department. There is adequate capacity within the sewage treatment plan to accommodate this development. god: Traffic projections for this subdivision are estimated to be approximately 370 additional vehicle trips per day based on the estimate of 10 vehicle trips per residence per day in the area onto Three Mile Drive. The subdivision roads will be constructed to City standards and would include curb, gutter, sidewalks and 5 landscape boulevards within the subdivision. The internal subdivision road will access onto North Riding, a new City street that will be constructed to City standards. A secondary access will be designated as part of the review process with it likely to be located along Three Mile Drive and for emergency ingress and egress only. Impacts to Three Mile Drive as far as traffic is concerned, would be contained at the intersection of Three Mile Drive and North Riding Road. Once the roads have been constructed and accepted by the City of Kalispell, they will be dedicated to the City and maintained. There will be some moderate impacts to Three Mile Drive as a result of this subdivision and North Riding Road to the west. Three Mile Drive is a paved, two lane State secondary roadway that is in fair condition. In 1997 the daily average vehicle trips east of Stillwater Road was 3,064. There will be a moderate increase in traffic on Three Mile Drive with the commensurate impacts. At some point, consideration will need to be given to the upgrading and widening of Three Mile Drive as development continues to occur in the area. Typically this would be the responsibility of the State with regard to design, funding and construction. Three Mile Drive in this area is over 100 feet in width and would not require the reservation of any additional right-of-way for fixture expansion. Schools: This development is within the boundaries of the Kalispell School District #S. The school district could anticipate that an additional 20 school aged children might be generated into the district at full built out. This number is used because it takes into account pre-school aged children, home school education options and private school education option. Not all of the children who live in the subdivision will be attending public schools. This would have a potentially significant impact on the district, particularly on a cumulative level with other developments pending within the district - both urban and rural particularly with high school -aged students. Parks, and nnPn S:pace: The state and local subdivision regulations have parkland / open space requirements for major subdivisions in the amount of 11 percent or one -ninth of the area proposed for the development. The environmental assessment states that the developer would like to pay cash in lieu of parkland dedication to satisfy this requirement based on the purchase price of the property of $18,000 per acre. With approximately 6.37 acres of the property in lots, 11 percent for parkland requirements would be 0.70 acres. This calculates to $12,600 for cash in lieu of parkland dedication. There is an undeveloped City park that lies almost directly to the east of this site, Sunset Park. These funds can be used in all or in part for the development of amenities to this park area. Polite_.: This subdivision would be in the jurisdiction of the City of Kalispell Police Department. The department can adequately provide service to this subdivision, however the cumulative impacts of growth within the city further strains the departments ability to continue to provide the high level of service the department is committed to. X Fire Protection: Fire protection services will be provided by the Kalispell Fire Department, and the subdivision will need to meet the requirements of the Uniform Fire Code. The fire department will review and approve the secondary access to the site, the number and location of hydrants within the subdivision as well as fire flows for compliance with applicable fire codes. Although fire risk is low because of good access and fairly level terrain, the fire department is recommending that access to the subdivision and the hydrants are in place prior to final plat approval and / or use of combustible materials in construction. Solid Waste: Solid waste will be handled by the City of Kalispell and taken to the Flathead County Landfill. There is sufficient capacity within the landfill to accommodate this additional solid waste generated from this subdivision. Medical Services: Ambulance service is available from the fire department and ALERT helicopter service. Kalispell Regional Hospital is close, less than two miles from the site. E. Effects on Agriculture and agricultural water user facilities: The site has been traditionally used for very limited agricultural purposes and is more efficiently and effectively used for urban residential development. Its location within the planning jurisdiction and its proximity to urban services makes this property prime for the type of development being proposed. There will be relatively little impact on agricultural uses within the Valley and no impact on agricultural water user facilities since this property will be served by a public water system. F. Relation to the Kalispell Growth Policy: This property is in the Kalispell Growth Policy's potential utility service area and is anticipated for this type of urban scale development at the time of connection to City utilities. The future land use map for the area indicates this area is anticipated to be developed as Urban Residential. Areas designated as Urban Residential are anticipated to be served by community water and sewer and have good access to services and public facilities. This land use designation anticipates a density of two to 12 dwelling units per acre and the requested R-3 and RA-1 zoning for the site has an overall maximum density of approximately eight dwelling units per acre. This subdivision is in compliance with the Kalispell Growth Policy and its goals and policies. G. Compliance with Zoning: This property has been proposed to be zoned R-3, an Urban Residential district that is intended for single-family residential development and has a minimum lot size requirement of 7,000 square feet and a minimum lot width of 60 feet and RA-1, a Low Density Residential Apartment district that has a minimum lot size requirement of 6,000 square feet and a minimum lot width of 60 feet. It appears that some of the lots may not meet the minimum lot width requirements by a slim margin. However, with some slight modifications to the location of the property boundaries all of the lots within the subdivision will be able to comply with the minimum lot size and minimum lot width requirements of the zoning. 7 H. Compliance with the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations: This subdivision complies with the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations and no variances have been requested.

Sorensen, Zoning Administrator, Chair Chris Kukulski, City Manager Guests: Rick Breckenridge and John Schwartz, Schwartz Engineering; Tim Birk, Developer; Steve Herzog, MDOT Cascade Professional Park— Discussion of right-of-way improvement issues related to subdivision by Crop Hail (previously discussed Dec. 1, 2002 by Site Review, Jan. 2 by Planning Board, and subsequently by the Council) —Tried to get a 20 ft strip from Jim Thompson to widen road, but it didn't work out (offered the whole piece). TIF money might be available to construct Financial Drive depending upon how it is set up (financing is not under site review process). They would prefer a bike path and 24 foot roadway. City would want a 24 foot roadway with attached sidewalks if the 40 foot right-of-way is used. The Police have a safety issue with the road being private and would prefer it to be public. Meets the public interest to have the road made public pursuant to standards applicable to a 40 ft right-of-way. Needs to get the subdivision agreement done and get it scheduled for the Council. Tamarack Center — 15,000 square foot office building — Plan to do the shell. The type of construction has been changed to give adequate fire flows. Need to have Jim Stewart check off on the turn around area. The drainage figures have not yet been provided to Public Works; They will contact Carver on the drainage issue. Hold for next week. Rising Sun Espresso — Appleway/Highway 2 — Spoke with MDOT with access off of the Highway or Appleway as option #2. Developers were concerned with the topography off of Appleway. The preferred access (for MDOT and the City) is the Appleway entrance. Steve Herzog suggested they put in a joint access with the property next to them. Dick wants some type of traffic study done on this area. We could ask them what their anticipated volume will be and hours of operation. P. J. will talk to them about the joint access. Planning Board Agenda --Raven Rock Subdivision (Three Mile Drive) —Public Works indicates that North Riding Road is a collector. There are some issues with the alignment of the roads; They may need to come in with a single road. Also possible to have a road out to the east to create some circulation. Potential approaches were discussed. Preferred alternative is to create a four-way intersection. Question as to this proposed single access — would it be an issue for the Fire Department? The requested RA-1 zoning would possibly work better with an R-4 zone since they are staying with duplexes. --McKinnon/Santa — community residential facility at 205-51` Avenue East — Nothing further on this. --Stroisch — historic building text amendment — Tom will get with P. J. on this. NEW BUSINESS: None. OTHER DISCUSSION: Office Building in Buffalo Commons Physical Therapy Office off of Commons Way. Will be on the agenda next week. Townhouse development — Proposed development on College Avenue with two two -unit townhouse structures. One permit has been issued. Discussion re: driveway/fire hydrant/street sign issues. Tom and P.
