REPORT TO: Kalispell Mayor and City Council
FROM: Narda A. Wilson, Senior Planner

SUBJECT Annexation and Initial Zoning of R-4, Two Family Residential -
Future Phase XII of Glacier Village Greens
MEETING DATE: November 18, 2002
BACKGROUND: For your consideration is the initial zoning for property being
annexed into the city located in the Glacier Village Greens golf course development.
The property is one additional phase of Glacier Village Greens golf course
development and is an unplatted townhouse subdivision, Glacier Village Greens
Phase XII that will have two duplex townhouse lots that will plat four sublots on
0.604 acres. The properties lie within the Glacier Village Greens Golf Course
development on the north side of Ritzman Lane and east of Palmer Drive. A petition
for annexation with a request for initial zoning of R-4, Two Family Residential was
submitted. City R-4, a Two Family Residential zoning district, has a minimum lot size
requirement of 6,000 square feet and allows duplexes and single-family homes as
permitted uses. The property is currently designated as County R-5, a Two Family
Residential district and the proposed zoning is comparable. The proposed zoning is
consistent with the other City zoning adopted for the Glacier Village Greens
development.
The preliminary plat for the four lot subdivision was waived since it meets the criteria
for preliminary plat waiver as provided for in the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations.
All of the infrastructure is in place and the developer would like to build a model
home and relocate the office which is currently in the area of East Nicklaus. This
location is in close proximity to the club house and parking lot and is more
appropriate for office / model home that the current location. The developer is
submitting this annexation and initial zoning proposal along with the final plat for
your consideration.
On November 12, 2002 the Kalispell City Planning Board held a public hearing to
consider the appropriate zoning for the property upon annexation to the city. Staff
recommended approval of the proposed R-4 zoning because it is consistent with the
current County R-5 zoning and other City R-4 zoning in the development. No one spoke
at the public hearing. A motion was made and passed unanimously by the planning
board to recommend R-4, Two Family Residential, zoning upon annexation into the
city.

Existing Services:
Water: An eight inch water main belonging to the Evergreen Water District is in place
along Ritzman Drive and connects East and West Nicklaus Avenues. This water main
also serves a hydrant located on the north side of Ritzman Drive and west of proposed
LotlA of Glacier Village Greens Phase XII. Adequate capacity to serve the site is available
once the extension is made.
Sewer: An eight inch sewer main exits along Ritzman Drive between East Nicklaus and
West Nicklaus Avenues. This main currently belonging to the North Village Sewer
District but maintained by the City of Kalispell Public Works Department via an
interlocal agreement with the District. The main delivers effluent to a lift station in the
northern portion of Buffalo Hills Golf Course west of Fairway Boulevard Townhouses.
The wastewater treatment plant has sufficient capacity to service this property.
Storm Drainage: A storm drain system lies to the west of the Glacier Village Greens
Development that serves several developments in the area. However, no storm drainage
system exists in the immediate area of this site. Infiltration and natural absorption areas
are proposed to mitigate any potential storm runoff associated with development of the
site.
Streets: Ritzman Lane was taken over by the City of Kalispell as part of the annexation
of the Glacier Village Greens development. The City currently maintains the roadway
that will service these lots as part of the road maintenance in the subdivision
Garbage Collection: Available by contract from private companies.
Police Protection: Flathead County Sheriffs Department.
Fire Protection: Evergreen Fire Department.
Anticipated Service Needs and Costs:
Water: A service line would be extended from the exiting main located in Ritzman Drive
to each of the individual lots at the time of development. Connection fees would be paid
to the Evergreen Water District. There is adequate water supply and water pressure for
the service when extended.
There would be no additional maintenance costs associated with this since the
Evergreen Water District maintains the system.
Sewer: Service lines would be extended from the existing sewer main located in Rittman
Drive to each of the individual lots at the time of development. Connection fees would be
paid to the North Village Sewer Districts at the time of connection. There is adequate
capacity within the water treatment plant and collection system to service this property
once connected.
There would be no additional costs to the City associated with the continued
maintenance of the sewer line.
Storm Drainage: No storm drain system exists in the area. Storm water flows can be
handled on site with natural absorption areas for infiltration since these properties are
adjacent to the golf course. The terrain is generally level with grass on the course for
vegetation resulting in minimal erosion or drainage problems during and after
development.
® No new storm water management facilities will be developed, owned or maintained by
the developer or the City of Kalispell and no additional costs would be incurred.
Streets: the City of Kalispell Public Works Department is currently maintaining Ritzman
Drive after the annexation of the Glacier Village Greens Golf Course effective in
November of 2001. No improvements or upgrades to the road will be necessary other
than normal maintenance by the City. Since the City already maintains the roadway,
not additional equipment, staff or time will be needed to maintain this road.
® There will be no additional costs associated with the maintenance of this road since
the City already maintains it.
Solid Waste Collection: The City of Kalispell can and would provide solid waste pick-up
for the site when this property becomes eligible for municipal service.
® No additional services, equipment or other costs would be incurred by the solid waste
department for garbage collection as a result of the development of these lots.
Police/Fire: City of Kalispell Police Department and Fire Department will be available to
provide services to this property upon annexation at approximately the same level as
other properties within the City albeit response times may be delayed because of the
distance of this property from the fire and police stations. A hydrant currently exists on
the north side of Ritzman Drive.
Insignificant additional expense to fire and police can be associated with this
annexation.
City Administration: The City of Kalispell would provide administrative services to the
residents of the subdivision from the mayor and city council; city manager, city attorney,
finance department and city clerk.
® Insignificant impacts to these offices and the services they offer would result from the
development and annexation of these properties.
Total City Revenue and Cost of Services
Assessments:
Special Assessments: There are no special assessments that would be required any
additional sidewalk, water or sewer improvements. Any improvement would be paid by
the developer in accordance with the City's extension of services plan and policies.
® There are not special assessments or SID associated with this property.
Storm sewer drainage assessments:
Storm sewer assessments based on the square foot of the property with an average
square footage of approximately 6,400 square feet would be based on .0029 = $18.56
each x 4 = $74.24
Street maintenance assessments:
• Street maintenance assessments based on the square foot of the property with an
average square footage of approximately 6,400 square feet would be based on .0059 =
$37.76 each x 4 = $151.04.
Urban forestry assessments:
® Forestry assessments based on the square foot of the property with an average
square footage of approximately 6,400 square feet would be based on a rate of .00135
= $8.64 x 4 = $34.56.
3
General revenue:
® Based on an assumption that the each unit would be assessed at approximately
$130,000. and the taxable value at $18,423.60 (0.03543 x $520,000) and the 152.39
mill levy, the additional revenue to the City of Kalispell would be $2,800.
Additional Expenses to the City of Kalispell would be estimated at: None:
Additional Revenue to the City of Kalispell at full build out estimated at: $3,059.84
Extension and Finance Strategies:
Extension of services to this property would be made from the existing locations to the
properties in the way of services lines at the developers expense along with connection
fees. The connection fees would be paid to the Evergreen Water District for water and to
the North Village Sewer District for sewer.

Re: Annexation and Initial Zoning - Future Phase XII of Glacier Village Greens
Dear Chris:
The Kalispell City Planning Board met on November 12, 2002, and held a public
hearing to consider initial zoning on one additional phase of an unplatted townhouse
subdivision in Glacier Village Greens golf course development. A petition for
annexation request by Glacier Village Greens Inc. was submitted for 0.604 acres.
Glacier Village Greens Phase XII has duplex townhouse lots that will plat four sublots.
The properties proposed for annexation lie within the Glacier Village Greens Golf
Course development on the north side of Ritzman Lane and east of Palmer Drive. The
planning board is recommending City R-4, a Two Family Residential zoning district,
which has a minimum lot size requirement of 6,000 square feet and allows duplexes
and single-family homes as permitted uses.
Narda Wilson with the Tri-City Planning Office presented staff report #KA-02-11,
evaluating the proposed zoning noting that the proposed zoning is consistent with the
other City zoning adopted for the Glacier Village Greens development and the current
County R-5, Two Family Residential zoning. No one spoke at the public hearing.
After the public hearing the board discussed the zoning for the property and the
unplatted subdivision. A motion was made and passed unanimously to forward a
recommendation that initial zoning for this property should be R-4, Two Family
Residential, upon annexation.
Please schedule this matter for the November 18, 2002 regular city council meeting.
You may contact this board or Narda Wilson at the Tri-City Planning Office if you have
any questions regarding this matter.

AND INITIAL ZONING
into the city of Kalispell for Phase 12 of Glacier Village
Greens on 0.604 acres and is located on the north side of
Ritzman Lane between Palmer Drive and E. Nicklaus Drive.
STAFF REPORT
Narda Wilson, of the Tri-City Planning Office, gave a
# -02-11
presentation of staff reports KA-02-11, which evaluates the
appropriate assignment of a City zoning classification in
accordance with Section 27.03.010(4) of the Kalispell Interim
Zoning Ordinance. The Kalispell City Council has annexed
all other phases of the Glacier Village Greens development in
previous actions and assigned a zoning designation
consistent with the R-4 zoning that is being requested for
this property. This property will be annexed under the
provisions of Sections 7-2-4601 through 7-2-4610, M.C.A.,
Annexation by Petition. Staff reviewed statutory criteria for
assignment of zoning and recommended adoption of an R-4,
Two -Family Residential zoning designation, upon
annexation.
Atkinson asked if there would be a turn -around area or if the
road would go through and Wilson answered that the road
already goes through and connects between East and West
Nicklaus Avenues.
APPLICANT/AGENCIES
Tom Sands, of Sands Surveying, explained the reason for
expediting Phase 12 now and doing Phases 14 through 22
later: so they could build an office/model home complex on a
lot closer to the clubhouse to keep the traffic away from the
residential homes. He said this would bring the traffic flow
next to the clubhouse and as long as they were doing that
they needed to fill in the gaps. He noted they had extended
the width of the lots by 6 to S feet, and said they have tried
to buffer a little from the residential houses along Ritzman.
PUBLIC HEARING
The public hearing was opened to those who wished to
speak.
PROPONENTS
No one wished to speak.
OPPONENTS
No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was
closed.
MOTION
Spooner moved and Atkinson seconded to adopt staff report
KA-02-11 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell
City Council that the initial zoning for this property should
be R-4, Two -Family Residential, upon annexation.
BOARD DISCUSSION There was no board discussion.
ROLL CALL The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote.

TRI-CITY PLANNING
OFFICE
NOVEMBER t 2002
A report to the Kalispell City Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council regarding
an initial zoning designation of R-4 upon annexation to the city of Kalispell. A public
hearing has been scheduled before the Kalispell City Planning Board and Zoning
Commission for November 12, 2002, beginning at 7:00 PM, to consider appropriate
zoning for the area proposed to be annexed. The planning board will forward a
recommendation for appropriate zoning to the Kalispell City Council for consideration.
The developer has petitioned for annexation and an initial zoning designation of R-4, a
Two -Family Residential district, on approximately 0.604 acres on the north side of
Ritzman Lane between Palmer Drive and E. Nicklaus Avenue in Glacier Village Greens.
The property received preliminary plat approval waiver for Glacier Village Greens
Phase XII which will be submitted for final plat approval in a separate action.
Currently the property is zoned County R-5, a Two -Family Residential district, under
the Flathead County Zoning Regulations.
This report evaluates the appropriate assignment of a City zoning classification in
accordance with Section 27.03.010(4) of the Kalispell Interim Zoning Ordinance. The
Kalispell City Council has annexed all other phases of the Glacier Village Greens
development in previous actions and have assigned a zoning designation consistent
with the R-4 that is being requested for this property. This property will be annexed
under the provisions of Sections 7-2-4601 through 7-2-4610, M.C.A., Annexation by
Petition.

B. Location and Legal Description of Property: A request by Owl Corporation on
behalf of Glacier Village Greens, Inc. for annexation into the city of Kalispell and
an initial zoning designation of R-4, Residential, for what will be platted as Phase
XII. The properties proposed for annexation can be described as a portion of
Assessors Tracts 2A+ in Section 32, Township 29 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M.,
Flathead County, Montana.
C. Existing Zoning: The properties proposed for annexation are in the County
zoning jurisdiction and are in the Evergreen and Vicinity Zoning District. The
property proposed for annexation are currently zoned R-5, Two -Family
Residential. This district is defined as "A residential district with minimum lot
areas. Development within the district will require all public utilities and all
community facilities. Duplexes are allowed in this district." Permitted uses in
this district are generally limited to residential uses. The conditionally permitted
uses allow some non-residential uses but those are limited to churches, daycare
centers, mini and RV storage, RV Parks and campgrounds and golf courses. The
minimum lot size requirement of the County R-5 zoning district is 5,400 square
feet.
D. Proposed Zoning: The proposed R-4, Two -Family Residential, zone allows
duplexes and single-family residences as permitted uses and has a minimum lot
size requirement of 6,000 square feet and a width of 50 feet. The proposed City
R-4 district more closely reflects the existing and intended uses for Village Greens
than does the City R-5, Residential / Professional Office.
E. Size: The area proposed for annexation and zoning contains approximately 0.604
acres.
F. Existing Land Use: The property proposed for annexation is currently
undeveloped.
G. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning: The land use in the area is primarily single
family residential along with some duplex town -homes. The golf course and
clubhouse are part of the Glacier Village Greens development, but are not part of
the area proposed for annexation.
H. General Land Use Character: The general land use character of this area
surrounding the golf course development can be described as primarily
residential, but with some non-residential uses that would generally be
considered support services such as the church and school. A neighborhood
commercial development on the corner of West Evergreen Drive and Whitefish
Stage Road is in the process of being developed.
I. Utilities and Public Services: All available public services and facilities will be
provided to these properties at the same level of service as other properties
similarly situated in the city limits.

�Miiili• ` •
The statutory basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by 76-2-205, M.C.A.
Findings of fact for the zone change request are discussed relative to the itemized
criteria described by 76-2-203, M.C.A.
Does the requested zone comply with the Master Plan?
The property proposed for annexation was previously designated as Urban
Residential in the former Kalispell City County Master Plan and current zoning
assignments in the both the City and County were based upon that land use
designation. Staff is recommending that the Glacier Village Greens area be
given a City zoning designation of R-4, Two -Family Residential, consistent with
other zoning adopted for the development.
2. Is the requested zone designed to lessen congestion in the streets?
No significant increase in the impacts to the area will be created from annexing
these properties into the city. The uses would be consistent with those
anticipated in the area. Whitefish Stage Road is anticipated for an overlay
between Idaho and West Reserve Drive in the fall of 2002.
3. Will the requested zone secure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers?
No features on the property exist which would compromise the safety of the
public. Any new construction would be required to be in compliance with the
building safety codes of the City which relate to fire and building safety.
Adequate access is available to accommodate emergency vehicles and life safety
equipment.
4. Will the requested zone promote the health and general welfare?
The proposed zoning classification will promote the health and general welfare
by helping to promote the goals of the master plan for the area and encouraging
compatible uses in the area.
5. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air?
Setback, height, and coverage standards for development occurring on this site
are established in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance to insure adequate light and
air is provided. Proposed development standards under the City R-4 zoning are
similar to the existing County R-5 zoning.
6. Will the requested zone prevent the overcrowding of land?
The proposed zoning designation attempts to provide some consistency in the
development standards that are currently in place and have governed the
development of the area since its inception. The proposed zoning attempts to
prevent the overcrowding of land by providing similar standards.
3
7. Will the requested zone avoid undue concentration of people?
Minimum lot standards and use standards, as well as subdivision development
standards, will avoid the undue concentration of people at the time future
properties are developed.
8. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation,
water, sewerage, schools, parks, and other public requirements?
All public services and facilities are currently available or can be provided to the
property. Services to the area will be provided on a basis that is consistent with
all other properties inside the city limits.
9. Does the requested zone give consideration to the particular suitability of the
property for particular uses?
The proposed zoning designation is generally consistent with the land use
designations of the master plan and with the existing uses that have developed
in the area. The zoning gives adequate consideration to the suitability of the
land proposed for zoning.
10. Does the requested zone give reasonable consideration to the character of the
district?
The general character of the area is primarily single-family residential and
town -homes with some supporting uses such as the churches, school and
neighborhood commercial under development in the area. The proposed zoning
has attempted to create a residential designation for the Village Greens area
similar to that which exists and under which the development was originally
conceived.
11. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings?
Value of the buildings in the area will be conserved because the proposed
zoning attempts to accommodate existing uses and providing the zoning that
would accommodate the intended uses for the area in the future.
12, Will the requested zone encourage the most appropriate use of the land
throughout the municipality?
The proposed zoning is in substantial compliance with the other zoning of the
golf course development and consistent with zoning that has been assigned in
both the city and the county areas.
The proposed City R-4 zoning is the same zoning that has been assigned to other
phases of Village Greens and is a continuation of the same pattern of development.
Extension of services to the site to City standards will take place as part of the
development of the subdivision. Adequate access is available to serve the property and
any future development will be consistent and compatible with existing development in
Ii
the area. Public services and the facilities serving this subdivision will be extended and
constructed in accordance with the City of Kalispell Extension of Services Plan and the
Kalispell Design and Construction Standards.
