DOC ATTACHMENT A RECOMMENDED • • • OF • OCTOBER.•. The Kalispell City -County Planning Board is recommending the following conditions to the Kalispell City Council for the above referenced conditional use permit. A public hearing was held on this matter at the October 12, 1999 planning board meeting. 1. That the proposal will be developed in substantial conformance with the approved site plan and the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance with regard to occupancy, landscaping, fencing, signage, parking and other applicable elements. 2. That building construction shall be of brick materials which are similar and architecturally compatible with the surrounding buildings. 3. That the Kalispell Fire Department shall review and approve the proposal for compliance with the Uniform Fire Code. 4. That a deed restriction be recorded on the property that limits the use of the residences for senior and disabled persons unless adequate parking can be provided as required under the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance for multi -family dwellings. S. That construction of the approved activity must begin within 18 months from the date of authorization or that a continuous good faith effort is being made to do so. 5 as findings of fact and, based on these findings, recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the requested zone change from RA-1 to R-4 be granted. On a roll call vote all members voted Aye. The motion to recommend that the zone change be granted passed unanimously. SALVATION ARMY A request by the Salvation Army for a conditional use permit to CONDITIONAL USE allow a multi -family development in an H-1 to construct a 12- PERMIT unit apartment complex for senior and disabled persons in the north part of the Salvation Army parking lot. STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson gave a presentation on staff report KCU-99-8 in which staff recommends that the conditional use permit be granted subject to five conditions. She stated that the Salvation Army wishes to convert the north lot to modest apartments for seniors and the disabled. She added that this parking displacement does not impact the required parking under zoning. The parking requirement for multi -family for seniors and the disabled is one space per five dwellings, and this proposal includes one space per dwelling, which is far more adequate. This would have a relatively minimal impact on the area and services. This fits in well with the mix in the area. Johnson asked about fire department requirements and Wilson stated that the condition, as written, leaves this to the Fire Department and would be worked out at site review. Stevens asked about condition four, deed restrictions, and Wilson stated that this would be flexible enough to allow for future use by other than seniors if allowable parking were met. PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those in favor of the petition. PROPONENTS Lt. Monte Jones, 216 Glenwood Drive, spoke in favor of the petition stating that the Salvation Army's goal is to meet human needs without discrimination. They want to meet that need with this low-income apartment complex. During this process they have met with the neighbors and have addressed a lot of the concerns, the Salvation Army's idea is to meet their demands where possible. This unused parking lot is not good stewardship and an apartment complex to meet human needs is good stewardship. OPPOSITION Michael Ober, 54 Buffalo Hill Drive, spoke against the proposal based on the fact that this will reduce his property values, and increase traffic, noise and congestion. Bob Windauer, 75 Claremont Street, questioned the petition asking about landscaping and plans for Bountiful Drive, and the problems with vagrants etc. He asked how that end of the property will be managed. Kalispell City -County Planning Board October 12, 1999 Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 5 No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was closed. BOARD DISCUSSION Johnson asked Jones to answer Windauer's questions. Jones stated that the property will be managed by the Salvation Army, there is always someone there and it makes sense for them to manage the complex, the landscaping at the corner and within the complex in order to make it look like it has been there for 20 years will insure it's compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood. Jones explained that the proposal is being funded with the agreement that this will be kept by the Salvation Army for 50 years and therefore it would not change from what is proposed. Wilson stated that the city would require an extension of Bountiful Drive at such time as the further undeveloped area becomes developed. The Salvation Army side of the street has been upgraded to city standard, so as far as upgrading Bountiful Drive the Salvation Army is the closest to compliance with city standards. Rice asked about the deed restrictions and Wilson explained that it would have to be approved by the city council. Heinecke stated that he grew up in the neighborhood and he has mixed feelings about this, as there is no public transportation there. Jones answered that Eagle transit comes to the Salvation Army twice a day. He added that he doesn't know if it is a part of their regular route, and part of the Salvation Army development would be to offer rides in their 15- passenger van twice per week. Stevens commented that the board has spent a lot of time dealing with the issue of affordable housing and this is just such an issue. He is opposed to any government regulation that would restrict affordable housing and for that reason he is in favor of this proposal. This proposal does not have near the opposition as most affordable housing issues. He does not see this impacting anyone significantly. His understanding is that the permitted uses in this zoning district could have far more potential impacts than this project. MOTION Brenneman moved and Rice seconded to adopt staff report KCU- 99-8 as findings of fact and, based on these findings, recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the conditional use permit be granted subject to the five conditions as specified in the report. On a roll call vote all members voted Aye. The motion to recommend that the conditional use permit be granted passed unanimously. Kalispell City -County Planning Board October 12, 1999 Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 5 SALVATION REGIONALFLATHEAD DEVELOPMENT OFFICE CONDITIONAL.O. .. OCTOBER 4, 1999 A report to the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Kalispell City Council regarding a request for a conditional use permit to allow the construction of a 12 unit apartment complex in a H-1 zoning district. A public hearing on this matter has been scheduled before the planning board for October 12, 1999, beginning at 7:00 PM, in the Kalispell City Council Chambers. The planning board will forward a recommendation to the City Council for final action. BACKGROUND D INFORMATION A. Petitioner: Lt. Monte Jones 110 Bountiful Drive Kalispell, Mt 59901 (406)257-4357 Technical Assistance: Jackola Engineering P.O. Box 1134 Kalispell, MT 59901 (406)755-3208 B. Size and Location: The property proposed for the apartment complex is located on the side of the existing Salvation Army parking lot. The Salvation Army is located in the north part of Kalispell near the hospital, on the east side of Bountiful Drive. The development site will is a portion of this property located at 110 Bountiful Drive which can be described as Lots 1 and 2, Highland Park First Addition located in Section 6, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana. C. Nature of Request: The applicants are requesting a conditional use permit to allow the construction of a 12 unit apartment complex for senior and disabled people. The complex would consist of 12, approximately 500 square foot units, that would be located in the northern portion of the property owned by the Salvation Army. Currently, this portion of the site is devoted to a parking lot which would be removed. As indicated in the application and on the site plan, there will be a five unit complex, a tri Alex and two duplexes. The complex would be rented on a monthly basis and would not provide interim, transient or shelter housing which is provided through the Samaritan House. D. Existing Land Use and Zoning: Currently there is a church building where the Salvation Army operates their church and other community services that they provide to those in need. This facility does not provide overnight accommodations, nor would overnight accommodations be provided under this proposal. This property is in an H-1, Health Care, zoning district which lists multi -family housing as a conditionally permitted use. E. Surrounding Boning and Land Uses Zoning: There is a mix of uses in the immediate area that have been developed in conjunction with the hospital. They he a short distance to the north and include office uses, long term residential care for the elderly and single family housing. Highway 93 is to the west approximately one quarter mile or less. North: Undeveloped property and the Brenden House, H-1, a Health Care zoning district South: Immanuel Lutheran Home and single family residential; H-1 zoning East: Single family residences; H-1 zoning West: Medical offices; H-1 zoning F. Master Plan Designation: The Kalispell City County Master Plan Map designates this area as Medical / Professional which anticipates a variety of medical, dental, office and residential type uses in the area. The proposed project is in compliance with the land use designation of the master plan map and furthers the goals of the master plan by providing for a diversity of housing needs in the community. G. Utilities/Services: Sewer service: City of Kalispell Water service: City of Kalispell Solid Waste: City of Kalispell Gas: Montana Power Company Electric: Flathead Electric Co -Op (underground) Phone: PTI (underground) Police: City of Kalispell Fire: Kalispell Fire Department Schools: School District #5, Kalispell H. Evaluation of the Request: Site Suitability: a. Adequate Useable Space: An approximately one half acre area of the approximately two acre site is proposed to be used for the apartments. The remaining area of the property is where the Salvation Army currently has its main building which serves as the Salvation Army Church and administrative offices. This building, parking and landscape area occupies the majority of the site. Displacement of the existing parking area that will house the new apartments will not effect the needed parking for the church or administration offices. The parking requirements for the church are based upon a ratio of one parking place per five seats. With a seating capacity of 150, 30 parking spaces would be required. Approximately 51 parking spaces will remain after the ones on the north side of the property have been developed with housing, more than adequate parking for the church use. b. Adequate Access: Access to the property is off of Bountiful Drive, a paved City Street, although there is no curb and gutter along the north or west sides of the street. An existing 26 foot wide driveway will be used as the main entrance to the apartment complex which comes directly off of Bountiful Drive. The main entrance to the Church is also off of Bountiful Drive, but further to the south and is generally from the parking lot located to the west and the sidewalk along Bountiful Drive to the south of this project. Access to the site is generally good, however, the fire access and turnaround area toward the east portion of the site will have to be more clearly delineated and maintained. One of the existing outbuildings on the east portion of the site appears to be set in a temporary manner and may have to be removed or relocated. C. Environmental Constraints: There are no obvious environmental constraints apparent on the property which is generally level. Some excess paving may have to be removed to provide for on -site retention of stormwater along the perimeter of the property. 2. Appropriate Design: a. Parking Scheme: One space per five dwelling is required under the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance for housing complexes that are for seniors and / or disabled people. As proposed, there is one parking space for each dwelling. The parking arrangement as proposed may not be the most conducive to immediate access to the individual dwelling units, but appears to be adequate to meet the parking requirements of the zoning regulations. b. Traffic Circulation: Traffic will enter and exit the site from a single established driveway along the northwest section of Bountiful Drive. Two way traffic can be accommodated within the parking lot. A defacto turnaround area can be used in the parking lot to the rear of the church. A more defined turnaround area may need to be established for the fire department's needs and to provide adequate circulation within the parking lot itself. C. Open Space: No specific open space requirements are required under the zoning other than the required setbacks which have been adequately met as indicated on the site plan. Additionally, there is a lawn area around the church. d. Fencing/Screening/ Landscaping: Nice landscaping is in place around the church building and along the northern boundary of the property. Large trees provide good buffering and landscaping for the site along the northern boundary and will be retained. Additional lawn areas will be established around the perimeter of the site which may require the removal of some asphalt and / or concrete. Fencing and some landscaping will be established along the eastern boundary of the property where it abuts a residential neighborhood to provide some buffering between the two uses. e. Signage: No signage has been indicated on the site plan or proposed in the application, however any signage will need a permit from the zoning administrator and will comply with Kalispell zoning regulations. 3 3. Availability of Public Services/Facilities: a. Schools: This site is within the boundaries of School District #5, however, generally speaking, this proposal should have minimal impact on the school district. b. Parks and Recreation: There is no formal park in close proximity to the site and very few sidewalks or other adequate pedestrian system. Some limited walking areas are provided around the property itself. C. Police: No substantial impacts to the police can be anticipated as a result of the proposed residential facility. d. Fire Protection: Fire protection will be provided by the Kalispell Fire Department. A fire hydrant may be required to be extended to the site in order to meet fire code requirements. Additionally, adequate access and a fire truck turnaround area will need to be identified prior to the issuance of a building permit. C. Water: City water will be extended to service the new buildings which may require a main be extended to service the site and to supply water to a hydrant. The plans and specifications for the water systems will need to be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department. f. Sewer: Sewer service will be provided by the City of Kalispell. No significant impacts on City sewer services can be anticipated as a result of the proposed use, however, additional sewer services may need to be extended to the site to service the new development. Plans and specifications will need to be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department if new facilities are required. g. Solid Waste: Solid waste pick-up will be provided by the City, and no significant increased impacts can be anticipated as a result of the proposed use. h. Roads: Minimal to moderate traffic generation can be anticipated as a result of this use. Access will generally be onto Bountiful Drive and then onto Highway 93. Although congested at times, streets in the area are generally well maintained and in good condition. Roads in the area are adequate to accommodate the proposed use. i. Immediate Neighborhood Impact: The general character of this area is a mix of medical, office and residential uses. Impacts to the neighborhood will be insignificant. The projects appears to be in an area well suited for this type of use because of its close proximity to medical services and the services offered by the Salvation Army. Additionally, there are other alternative type residential uses in the area with Immanuel Lutheran Home and Buffalo Terrace. This complex provides a good element to create a mixed residential use area 4 A notice of public hearing was mailed to property owners within 150 feet of the subject property approximately 15 days prior to the hearing. At the writing of the staff report, no comments were received by the Flathead Regional Development Office from the public. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS 1. The size and location of the site is adequate for the proposed use which has a mix of single-family and multi -family uses in the area. 2. The site design is in compliance with the zoning and design standards of the City. 3. Existing public services and facilities are available and adequate to serve the proposed use. 4. There will be minimal impact to the neighborhood with regard to the use of the site for the proposed use and will not adversely effect the quality of the neighborhood. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board adopt staff report #KCU- 99-8 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the conditional use permit be granted subject to the following conditions: 1. That the proposal will be developed in substantial conformance with the approved site plan and the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance with regard to occupancy, landscaping, fencing, signage, parking and other applicable elements. 2. That building construction shall be of brick materials which are similar and architecturally compatible with the surroundings buildings. 3. That the Kalispell Fire Department shall review and approve the proposal for compliance with the Uniform Fire Code. 4. That a deed restriction be recorded on the property that limits the use of the residences for senior and disabled persons unless adequate parking can be provided as required under the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance for multi -family dwellings. S. That commencement of the approved activity must begin with 18 months from the date of authorization or that a continuous good faith effort is being made to do so. H: \... \KCU 1 99\KCU99-8 5 !

I,.. {v_ O. WILLIAM BOOTH Founder PAUL A RADER General DAVID EDWARDS Territorial Commander CHRIS BUCHANAN Divisional Commander MONTE JONES Corps Officer The Salvation Army has been active in Kalispell since 1896 doing two things: Preaching the good news about Jesus Christ, and meeting human needs in His name without discrimination. In the past that has meant clothing vouchers to our thrift stores, a congregate meal program feeding over 50 people a day, a summer lunch program where hungry children receive nutritious meals, a free health clinic where there are literally people walking around Kalispell today who would have died a year ago had we not been there, and many other services offered on a case by case basis. When God provided our new building up on the hill, we committed to using every square foot of this property to meeting the needs of the less fortunate of Kalispell or proclaiming the Gospel. After a year of praying and doing our homework, we, in cooperation with some of the good citizens of Kalispell have come up with the proposal you see before you. Our hope is to provide an affordable place to live for low income seniors and the disabled that is pleasant, quiet, safe, gives access to the services we already provide, as well as easy access to medical facilities. Please imagine for example a senior whose spouse has to be placed in Brendon House or the Lutheran Home. He can live at our complex, get meals for free, and be close to the one he loves. Another example would be the little lady who is on dialysis and is paying a taxi to bring her up for treatment twice a week. She can live in our apartment, get her meals for free, and have a volunteer wheel her over to dialysis. We can't imagine a better use for the parking lot that is, for now, sitting fallow and collecting debris. It is our prayer that this housing will meet the basic needs of food, shelter, and medical attention for low income seniors, as well as being a lovely addition to this beautiful neighborhood. May God bless you as you consider this worthwhile project. God Is Good, Lt. onte Jones Flathead Regional Development Office 723 5th Ave. East Room 414 Kalispell,••0 • .
