3. Ordinance 1703 - Initial Zoning Request - Department of Military Affairs - 2nd ReadingPLANNING FOR THE FUTURE REPORT TO: Kalispell Mayor and City Council FROM: Sean Conrad, Senior Planner Jane Howington, City Manager Planning Department 2011" Avenue East Kalispell, MT 59901 Phone: (406) 758-7940 Fax: (406) 758-7739 www.kafspell.com/planning SUBJECT Second Reading - Department of Military Affairs - Initial Zoning of P-1 (Public) MEETING DATE: November 21, 2011 BACKGROUND: This is the second reading on a request for an initial zoning designation of P-1 for a 19.7 acre property owned by the State of Montana Department of Military Affairs. The property is the current location of the National Guard facility. The property is located on the east side of Highway 93 North, approximately one mile north of the intersection of Highway 93 North and West Reserve Drive. The property addresses are 2987 and 2989 Highway 93 North. The 19.77 acre site can be legally described as Tract 2 as shown on Certificate of Survey No. 8594 located in Section 19, Township 29 North, Range 21 West P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana. The Kalispell City Council approved the first reading of the ordinance at their regular meeting of November 7, 2011. RECOMMENDATION: A motion to approve the second reading of the ordinance for initial zoning of P-1 (Public) would be in order. FISCAL EFFECTS: A cost of services analysis was not prepared for the National Guard facility because of the unique use of the property and the property's exempt tax status. Once annexed, the property will not pay any general fund taxes but will pay the city's assessments for storm sewer, street maintenance, urban forestry and light maintenance. Based on the unique use of the property, its proximity to existing city limits and its primary access provided by a state highway, the anticipated fiscal effects of annexing the property are minor and positive in nature. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the city council.
