STAFF REPORTS KA-11-02
Sean Conrad representing the Kalispell Planning Department
reviewed staff report KA-11-02.
Conrad noted this is a request for annexation and initial zoning for a
property located on South Woodland Drive across from Quincy
Loop. The lot is approximately 11,000 square feet. Conrad added the
planning board reviewed an annexation and initial zoning for the
property immediately to the east of this lot at their April 12th
planning board meeting, the same owners requesting annexation and
initial zoning of R-2 (Residential) which went on to the city council
and council annexed the property with R-2 zoning.

annexation and noted the owners have requested this annexation to
accommodate the construction of a home and they would then
consolidate both of the lots into one large lot. Conrad said the
additional lots to the west that are also owned by the applicant are
intended for an orchard.
Conrad reviewed the growth policy map and noted this property is
designated as urban residential which allows single family
residential units and has densities between 3 and 12 units per acre.
The requested zoning is compatible with the urban residential land
use designation and the R-2 zoning is also consistent with
surrounding zoning districts.
Staff recommends that the Kalispell City Planning Board and
Zoning Commission adopt staff report KA-11-02 as findings of fact
and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the property be
annexed and the initial zoning for this property upon annexation be
R-2, Residential.

Graham asked if the cost of services provided overrides the previous
analysis that was submitted with the first annexation and Conrad
said yes.

impact fees and Conrad said no, the impact fees are not due until the
building permit for the home is issued.
