RE: Application for Master Plan Amendment - West View Estates
Dear Narda:
Please find enclosed application materials for a proposed Master Plan Amendment on a
property to be known as West View Estates. The parcel is located at the comer of Stillwater
Road and West Reserve Drive, Section 25, Township 29 North, Range 22 West, Flathead
County. It encompasses approximately 60 acres, with a proposed 119 residential lots and two
large tracts.
The Flathead County Master Plan currently designates this land as Agricultural, and we are
proposing to change that designation to Suburban Residential, professional offices, and
commercial uses as described on the application as we feel that is a better fit with the increased
development in that area.
Also attached please find the application fee of $1200.00. We understand that there are some
issues regarding the legality of a Master Plan Amendment application that need clarification
from the Attorney General, and expect that there will be some delay, however, we would still like
to proceed. Your professional consideration of this application is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
xel-� 0----
Mark Owens
Mr. Owens is proposing to subdivide approximately 60 acres into three different types of
development. The bulk of the project would create 119 residential lots, each approximately
9,000 to 12,000 square feet in size. A substantial park area would be dedicated in the center of
this residential area. Roads would be paved and constructed to City Standards. A second
area of the development would involve the front portion of the property, Parcel 2 indicated on
the preliminary plat. The developer would like to initiate some professional office space, or high
density residential units such as townhouses or apartments. Thirdly, on the far western portion,
Parcel I near the comer of Stillwater Drive and West Reserve, a commercial operation such as
a convenience store to serve the needs of the nearby residences, is proposed.
Currently, the Flathead County Master Plan has designated this property as agricultural, and for
years, it has been used in this capacity. However, as development pressures in the vicinity
increase, it is no longer likely that agricultural operations will continue for much longer. Directly
to the east of the parcel is a large subdivision with homes on half acre lots. To the south is
Section 36, land owned by the State of Montana, which is slated for intense development,
including two new schools, high density residential buildings, and professional office space.
Directly to the west of the proposed subdivision, are more large residential lots. It is clear that
this area is a good candidate for a Master Plan Amendment.
It is the intention of the developer to provide the growing Flathead Valley population affordable
residential lots with City sewer services in attractive surroundings. Furthermore, to better serve
the residents of this subdivision, a small convenience store is proposed for the far western
parcel and some professional office space or high density residential units are being considered
for the eastern front parcel.
The residential neighborhood will directly adjoin the Stillwater Estates subdivision, which is still
under construction. Although the lots are smaller than in Stillwater Estates, many features of
the subdivisions are similar. The commercial lot and the townhouse portions of the proposal will
be very compatible with the proposed development across West Reserve within Section 36. As
part of the State Land proposal is to construct a new high school and a new elementary school,
West View Estates couldn't be in a better position for increased residential development.
As it is unknown as to what type or number of businesses will occupy Parcels 1 and 2, it is
impossible to make any predictions of their economic impact on the area.
The residential portion of the development will be underway as soon as possible. The
subdivision will be split into three phases and progress as Subdivision approvals become
available. The commercial and townhouse development options will proceed on a slower
schedule, perhaps after all three of the subdivision phases have been completed.
Please refer to the attached preliminary plat, \4cinity map, and engineering design map.
The topography of the parcel is generally flat land, there is no designated floodplain, nor is it
anticipated that there is any significant groundwater. As this project will be services by City
Sewer, septic limitations are not of a concern. There are no wetlands on this parcel and the
vegetation has been primarily wheat for many years as this has been in intense agricultural
production.
Sewer: Discussions with the City of Kalispell indicate that the capacity for including this
development is available. The developer is proposing to construct the system across Section
36 under the direction of the Department of State Lands and coordinating with their
development plans.
Water The adjoining subdivision, Stillwater Estates, is on a prolific community water system
and it is being proposed that this subdivision tap into that existing system as there is substantial
water availability.
Drainage: It is not anticipated that drainage will be a problem as the topography of the parcel is
gently rolling throughout. Street and road design will incorporate any runoff problems to be
encountered and the park area could be utilized as a collection/dispersal area.
Police: As this property will be incorporated into the City limits, police protection is not an
anticipated concern. This subdivision will be on the outer limits of the City, however, as it is
served by major road systems, it is likely that response times will be minimal.
Fire: Please refer to the above response.
Parks: A three and a half acre park in a central location of the subdivision is proposed for use
by the residents.
Transportation: The main entrance to the subdivision will be from West Reserve Drive. A
secondary access will be off of Stillwater Road. Both of the roadways are paved and
maintained by the County.

This Stillwater Road/Reserve Drive high density project poses a problem for education. It will have
significant impact on the West Valley Elementary. While West Valley has a new addition on its school, this may
be greater density than the school can easily manage. Furthermore, the school doesn't bus. Parents will need to be
prepared to drive students the distance to the school.
I would recommend that the developer meet with representatives of West Valley Board of Trustees with
regard to these issues. Since the students from this district attend Flathead Mgh School, representatives of
Kalispell School District should attend as well,
