REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution 4590 Annexing the Glacier Village Greens Area into the City of
Kalispell's Boundaries
MEETING DATE: October 11, 2000
BACK GROUND: On September 5, 2000, the City Council passed Resolution 4581 declaring
its intent to annex the Glacier Village Greens area north of West Evergreen Drive and east of
Whitefish Stage. This annexation includes Glacier Village Greens, Phases I, II, III, IIIA, IIIB, IV,
V, VIII, IX, X and Tract 5 which is located in NW 1/4 and SW 1/4 ofthe SW 1/4 of Sec. 32, T29N,
R21 W.
In 1982, the City entered into a Sewer District Connection Agreement with the North Village Sewer
District (Glacier Village Greens Development). Paragraph eleven of the Agreement is as follows:
11. The District by this agreement waives the right to protest annexation to the City of
Kalispell, on all or any part of the District, provided, however, that the City shall not initiate
annexation procedures under Section 7-2-4312 until development within the portion to be
annexed reaches 80% of the approved plan development of the area to be annexed.
Section 7-2-4312. Reads as follows:
Section 7-2-4312. Resolution of intent by city or town — notice. When, in the judgment of
any city or town council, expressed by a resolution that is passed and adopted, it is in the
best interest of the city or town and the inhabitants of any contiguous platted tracts or
parcels of land or unplatted land for which a certificate of survey has been filed that the
boundaries of the city or town be extended to include the platted tracts or parcels of land or
unplatted land within the corporate limits of the city or town, the city or town clerk shall.
(1) immediately notify, in writing, all registered voters in the territory to be embraced;
and
(2) cause a notice to be published in the newspaper published nearest the platted tracts
or parcels of land or unplatted land for which certificate of survey has been filed, at
least once a week for 2 successive weeks.
Page 1 of 3
Furthermore, paragraph eighteen of the Agreement states the following:
18. No owner of any parcel of land within the District shall be allowed to hook-up to, or to
contribute to the flow of the sewer main connected to the City's Sewage Treatment System
unless and until said owner has furnished to the City a waiver of right to protest annexation
In Addition to the Agreement, each of the 276 parcel owners have been aware of their "waiver of
right to protest annexation" in two ways. First, 274 of the property owners were notified through
the Covenants that are attached to their deed. Second, Consents to Annex and/or Petitions to Annex
have been signed on Phases I, II, IIIA, IV, VII, IX, and X of the development.
The area to be annexed is predominantly single family homes owned by retired couples. If we use
an estimate of 2 persons per household on a 191 home base, the estimated service population would
be 382 persons. In addition to population, we examined the call load ratio for the region, the
demographic and topographical features related to the infrastructure and public safety needs.
Attached is the Glacier Village Greens Area Detailed Municipal Service Plan. The service plan details
each City service to be provided, the cost of the service to the City and the revenue that will be
derived from the annexation. Also see the attached location map and plat map of the development.
In order to avoid an unnecessary legal battle over this annexation the administration and Glacier
Village Greens Home Owners Association (GVGHOA) have come to a mutually beneficial
arrangement. Attached is a letter from William Astle, legal council to the GVGHOA stating the
compromise. In exchange for not filing legal action against the City, the City has agreed to make the
annexation effective November 1, 2001 (2002 tax year). We are also obligating ourselves to accept
the streets into our transportation system. In good faith, the City and GVGHOA will review the
current street light arrangement and if it is advantageous to the homeowners to utilize the City's
agreement with Flathead Electric we will take the appropriate action. Under the law, we have also
agreed to see what can be done to prevent golfers from having to licence their golf carts.
The single largest impact of the compromise is that the City will not actually collect tax revenue or
assessments until November of 2002. That being said, we will also not provide any services until
November 1, 2001. This compromise, over the long run will help the City move forward with other
annexation issues surrounding the City. The timetable associated with the annexation is as follows:
✓ September 5, 2000 Resolution of Intention approved by Resolution 4581
✓ September 11, 2000 Application submitted to FRDO
✓ September 13, 2000 Publish notice
✓ September 20, 2000 Publish notice
✓ October 3, 2000 Deadline for comments
✓ October 10, 2000 Annexation is presented to the Planning Board - * Tabled
October 16, 2000 Resolution 4590 annexation of Glacier Village Greens Area before the
City Council
November 1, 2001 Annexation and zoning change becomes effective
* The Planning Board's decision to table action on Zoning the newly annexed area has no
Page 2 of 3
immediate effect on the Resolution to Annex, so long as the zoning is resolved prior to
November 1, 2001.
RECOMMENDATION: The City Council approve Resolution 4590 annexing the Glacier Village
Greens Area, North East of Kalispell Contiguous to Whitefish Stage and West Evergreen Drive
effective November 1, 2001.
FISCAL EFFECTS: The cost ofproviding services to the annexed area is estimated at $77,244 with
revenues through taxation and assessments estimated at $86,192. The expenditure side of the
annexation as it pertains to manpower will not be incurred until the City has further growth which
necessitates the hiring of addition personnel.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the Council.
Respectfully submitted,

Glacier Village Greens Area
Detailed Municipal Service Plan
October 11, 2000
The purpose for this Extension of Services Plan is to compliment the City's over-all Extension of
Services Plan that was adopted by Resolution 4241 in November of 1995 and amended by Resolution
4450 in March of 1999. This plan provides the City Council and the citizens within the annexed area
with a detailed five year services plan specific to the area to be annexed. Attached is a map of the
proposed land to be annexed into the City. Generally, the area is north east of the Whitefish Stage
and West Evergreen Drive intersection.
The area to be annexed is predominantly single family homes owned by retired couples. If we use
an estimate of 2 persons per household on a 191 home base, the estimated service population would
be 382 persons. In addition to population, we examined the call load ratio for the region, the
demographic and topographical features related to the infrastructure and public safety needs.
1. Police Coverage - We analyzed the call -load ratio for the area from our records and those of
the Flathead County Sheriff's Office to help determine a calls -for -service need. This area is in our
zone number 4 (northeast quadrant of the City, north of US-2 and east of Main Street). Zone 4
is the lowest calls -for -service area in the city with approximately 1400 calls per year. The
subdivision is flanked on the east by Whitefish River and on the west by steep ridges. Roughly
99% of the homes within the annexed area are within the Glacier Village Greens development
which has only two access roads on the south side of the property with fencing between the ridges
and the river. The area receives very little transient traffic that is not connected to the golf
operation because there are no through avenues. The subdivision is well lit and the homes are
in close proximity to each other.
The population numbers suggest that the area will require approximately .7 officers based on
the low population estimate of 382 residents. That figure is based on the "Law Enforcement in
Montana" survey which rates law enforcement ratios in cities of our size in the state at 1.8
officers per 1000 residents (x/382 residents=1.8/1000 residents). We must also anticipate some
impact on our dispatch services that will require that we budget additional money for part-time
staff. We also anticipate a very small caseload on our animal warden services.

Over the first five years after annexation the Kalispell Police Department will attempt to
accomplish a number of goals related to Glacier Village Greens. The department has one, three
and five year goals.
Year One
1. The Kalispell Police Department will assist the residents of Glacier Village Greens in
creating a Neighborhood Watch program.
2. The Kalispell Police Department will develop a zone response plan for Glacier Village
Greens.
a. Zone response is a method of assigning officers to a specific neighborhood. The
advantages include increasing the officer's familiarity with the area, increasing the resident's
familiarity with the officer, and improving response efficiency.
3. The Kalispell Police Department will notify each household in writing of their new law
enforcement service provider.
4. The Kalispell Police Department will notify the telephone service provider that 911 calls
from this area should be re -directed to the Kalispell Police Department Dispatch Center.
Year Three
1. The Kalispell Police Department will encourage all residents to have their homes
numbered and will attempt to ensure that all street signs are in place.
2. The Kalispell Police Department will encourage participation from residents of Glacier
Village Greens on the Police Advisory Council.
Year Five
1. The Kalispell Police Department will review the delivery of services plan and calls for
service for Glacier Village Greens to determine if any law enforcement improvements can be
made for the area.
We can extend services to this area without the addition of any employees through increased
efficiency and zone response. We feel we can provide excellent service to the area because of its
proximity to existing service areas and the inherent low calls -for -service overall profile of the
area.
2. Fire/Ambulance Coverage - The Kalispell Fire/Ambulance Department made an inspection of
Village Greens Subdivision in order to determine the impact annexation would have on the fire
department. Our present manpower to population ration is 1 fireman per 800 population.
Consequently, this annexation would cause the fire department to require 0.5 fireman. The FD
has added two firemen/paramedics to its department within the last 90 days.
The distance from our station to the last house in this subdivision is 3.8 miles. We estimate
our response time at six to seven minutes. There are currently 23 fire hydrants for the Evergreen
Page 2 of 6
Water Department in this subdivision. We are charged $60 per year rent on these hydrants, so
that would be a cost to our budget of $1380 per year. We have served this subdivision since it's
beginning with our E. M.S. System.
Looking ahead over the next five years the FD is working diligently to improve its ISO rating.
We expect to have a review within the next eighteen months that will lower insurance premiums
for all city residents. We are working to strengthen our relationship with our rural fire
departments neighbors in an effort to develop automatic aid agreements to help save lives and
property no matter what political jurisdiction you reside in. This subdivision is on the Northeast
edge if our city limits, where a substation is a consideration at this time.
We already serve this area with E. M. S., and since it is a new subdivision built to current
building and fire codes, the run volume for fire should be quite low and as a result we can service
this area with our current manpower.
3. Streets and Street Maintenance - Streets are in generally good condition and appear to meet
the City's standard cross section with curb and gutter with two exceptions. The first phase
portion of Nicklaus Drive is constructed to the City's alternate cross section design that does not
include curb and gutter. The other exception is that sidewalks have not been installed in the
development. Sidewalks would not be installed unless a majority (more than 50%) of the
homeowners petitioned the city for this service.
The condition of the streets and storm drainage system appears to be good with no obvious
deficient. areas. An overlay is not needed at this time, but the streets need to be placed into the
regular maintenance program. We recommend chip -sealing as soon as possible in order to
maintain their good condition for as long as possible. The streets within GVG would be chip
sealed within twenty-four months of the annexations effectiveness. Within five years we would
improve Nicklaus Drive to add curb and gutter to match the rest of the development and improve
drainage within the next five years. The curbing would be paid from the through an SID with the
storm drainage paid for from the storm drain assessment fund. The City will accept ownership
and maintenance of the streets within the GVG development provided the homeowa s
association complete the dedication process.
It is difficult to determine personnel requirements to serve this area. Routine snow plowing
is the greatest obligation. This would add about six man-hours of workload per snow event.
Sweeping would impose a somewhat smaller burden of approximately four man-hours per event.
Other road maintenance would be fitted into the current schedule as necessary. Storm drainage
maintenance is estimated to be nominal and not of significant impact. No new streets need to be
constructed or extended into the annexed area.
Page 3 of 6
4. Sewer Service - Sewer system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards. We have a contractual arrangement with North Village County Sewer District to
operate and maintain the facilities and will become owner of the facilities when construction
bonds have been paid. The sewer connection fees are used will continue to be utilized to retire
this debt. There are no apparent infrastructure needs for this system and annexation will involve
no changes to City operations. No new sewer mains will need to be constructed or extended into
the annexed area.
5. Water Service - Water system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards and are the property ofthe Evergreen district. There would be no obligation on the City
to operate or maintain this system; water maintenance is done by Evergreen.. This is identical to
the situation in Buffalo Stage where the development is in the City but water is provided from
Evergreen facilities. No new water mains will need to be constructed or extended into the
annexed area.
6. Solid Waste (Garbage Collection) - The City will not provide solid waste disposal services to
the annexed area for a minimum of five years, consistent with the provision of 7-2-4736, M.C.A.
If after five years the residents petition the City for solid waste service we are prepared to provide
this service with current manpower and equipment
7. Parrs - There are no publicly owned parks within the Village Greens development. The
developers chose to meet their parkland requirements by designated their park areas as
homeowners association parks, green space and open areas. Therefor, the City will have no
additional service commitment as a result of the annexation.
8. Recreation - Residents within Village Greens are currently eligible to participate in any of the
City's recreational programs. Therefor, the only impact pertaining to recreation is that the
participating residents will no longer have to pay the higher "out of city" fee. This is expected
to have an extremely minimal effect on recreation fees.
9. Urban Forestry - Urban Forestry - Public right-of-ways are 60 feet within the development.
This offers ample space for boulevard trees. Village Greens will be prioritized with all other
neighborhoods within the City for both the planting of new trees and the maintenance of their
current boulevard trees. The City's forestry program allows for the planting of 110 plus new
boulevard trees annually. In addition, we prune approximately 500 public trees each year.
Glacier Village Greens' requests for trees will be placed on the yearly planting list based on a first
come first serve priority. The individual homeowner will have input to the selection of desirable
Page 4 of 6
tree species and location along the boulevard. The maintenance of these newly planted trees will
be addressed annually for the first five years, then every five to seven years following. This is
based on the operational forestry plan for the newly established City Forestry District.
10. Building and Zoning - The area to be annexed is entirely within the building codes
jurisdiction for the City. We presently issue permits for work in the area and perform
inspections. Annexation will have no effect on our level of service, revenue, or expenditures.
Zoning jurisdiction will be extended to encompass the area in the same manner that all city
ordinances will extend their applicability. Review of building plans and other zoning functions
will be performed in the annexed area in the same manner as the rest of the City.
Expenditures will not change, but there will be a change in the distribution of permit fees
collected with building permits. Approximately $1, 500 per year will be distributed to the City
Zoning Department rather than the Flathead Regional Development Office, which currently
reviews building plans within the area. The total permit fee will not change.
11. Other Utility Lines - The extension of other utility lines into the area is not necessary to the
area to be annexed.
12. City Assessment Districts - The Storm Sewer, Street Maintenance and Forestry Assessments
will be capped at 10,000 sq ft for the areas within the annexation area that are not platted.
13. Financing of Services - Based on 1999 tax data provided by the Department of Revenue,
the Glacier Village Greens development will generate $64,947 (Dept. of Revenue
spreadsheet). In addition to the millage revenue generated, property owners will be subject
to three assessments which are based on the square footage of each lot. Of the 261 lots within
the annexed area, the majority are 65' x 100' or 6,500 sq. ft. In addition to the lot size, the
Department of Revenue assesses each lot within each phase of the development with an equal
share ofthe common area for taxing purposes. On average, 3,050 sq ft of common area exist
in each phase of GVG and is added to each of the lots. A number of the lots and common
areas are smaller, and larger, but for purposes of estimating I utilized the average size of
9,550. Based on this estimate the Street Maintenance assessment will generate an estimated
$11,216; the Storm Sewer assessment an estimated $6,847; and the Urban. Forestry
assessment will generate an estimated $1,682. Therefore, the total revenue generated from
Glacier Village Greens is estimated at $84,692 per year. This breaks down to approximately
$324 in City taxes and assessments for each lot within Glacier Village Greens. Can the City
provide services to the Glacier Village Greens development without raising taxes? Yes.

Glacier Village Greens Area
Detailed Municipal Service Plan
October 11, 2000
The purpose for this Extension of Services Plan is to compliment the City's over-all Extension of
Services Plan that was adopted by Resolution 4241 in November of 1995 and amended by Resolution
4450 in March of 1999. This plan provides the City Council and the citizens within the annexed area
with a detailed five year services plan specific to the area to be annexed. Attached is a map of the
proposed land to be annexed into the City. Generally, the area is north east of the Whitefish Stage
and West Evergreen Drive intersection.
The area to be annexed is predominantly single family homes owned by retired couples. If we use
an estimate of 2 persons per household on a 191 home base, the estimated service population would
be 382 persons. In addition to population, we examined the call load ratio for the region, the
demographic and topographical features related to the infrastructure and public safety needs.
1. Police Coverage - We analyzed the call -load ratio for the area from our records and those of
the Flathead County Sheriff's Office to help determine a calls -for -service need. This area is in our
zone number 4 (northeast quadrant of the City, north of US-2 and east of Main Street). Zone 4
is the lowest calls -for -service area in the city with approximately 1400 calls per year. The
subdivision is flanked on the east by Whitefish River and on the west by steep ridges. Roughly
99% of the homes within the annexed area are within the Glacier Village Greens development
which has only two access roads on the south side ofthe property with fencing between the ridges
and the river. The area receives very little transient traffic that is not connected to the golf
operation because there are no through avenues. The subdivision is well lit and the homes are
in close proximity to each other.
The population numbers suggest that the area will require approximately .7 officers based on
the low population estimate of 382 residents. That figure is based on the "Law Enforcement in
Montana" survey which rates law enforcement ratios in cities of our size in the state at 1.8
officers per 1000 residents (x/382 residents=1.8/1000 residents). We must also anticipate some
impact on our dispatch services that will require that we budget additional money for part-time
staff. We also anticipate a very small caseload on our animal warden services.
Page 1 of 6
Over the first five years after annexation the Kalispell Police Department will attempt to
accomplish a number of goals related to Glacier Village Greens. The department has one, three
and five year goals.
Year One
1. The Kalispell Police Department will assist the residents of Glacier Village Greens in
creating a Neighborhood Watch program.
2. The Kalispell Police Department will develop a zone response plan for Glacier Village
Greens.
a. Zone response is a method of assigning officers to a specific neighborhood The
advantages include increasing the officer's familiarity with the area, increasing the resident's
familiarity with the officer, and improving response efficiency.
3. The Kalispell Police Department will notify each household in writing of their new law
enforcement service provider.
4. The Kalispell Police Department will notify the telephone service provider that 911 calls
from this area should be re -directed to the Kalispell Police Department Dispatch Center.
Year Three
1. The Kalispell Police Department will encourage all residents to have their homes
numbered and will attempt to ensure that all street signs are in place.
2. The Kalispell Police Department will encourage participation from residents ofGlacier
Village Greens on the Police Advisory Council.
Year Five
1. The Kalispell Police Department will review the delivery of services plan and calls for
service for Glacier Village Greens to determine if any law enforcement improvements can be
made for the area.
We can extend services to this area without the addition of any employees through increased
efficiency and zone response. We feel we can provide excellent service to the area because of its
proximity to existing service areas and the inherent low calls -for -service overall profile of the
area.
2. Fire/Ambulance Coverage - The Kalispell Fire/Ambulance Department made an inspection of
Village Greens Subdivision in order to determine the impact annexation would have on the fire
department. Our present manpower to population ration is 1 fireman per 800 population.
Consequently, this annexation would cause the fire department to require 0.5 fireman. The FD
has added two firemen/paramedics to its department within the last 90 days.
The distance from our station to the last house in this subdivision is 3.8 miles. We estimate
our response time at six to seven minutes. There are currently 23 fire hydrants for the Evergreen
Page 2 of 6
Water Department in this subdivision. We are charged $60 per year rent on these hydrants, so
that would be a cost to our budget of $1380 per year. We have served this subdivision since it's
beginning with our E. M.S. System.
Looking ahead over the next five years the FD is working diligently to improve its ISO rating.
We expect to have a review within the next eighteen months that will lower insurance premiums
for all city residents. We are working to strengthen our relationship with our rural fire
departments neighbors in an effort to develop automatic aid agreements to help save lives and
property no matter what political jurisdiction you reside in. This subdivision is on the Northeast
edge if our city limits, where a substation is a consideration at this time.
We already serve this area with E. M. S., and since it is a new subdivision built to current
building and fire codes, the run volume for fire should be quite low and as a result we can service
this area with our current manpower.
3. Streets and Street Maintenance - Streets are in generally good condition and appear to meet
the City's standard cross section with curb and gutter with two exceptions. The first phase
portion ofNicklaus Drive is constructed to the City"s alternate cross section design that does not
include curb and gutter. The other exception is that sidewalks have not been installed in the
development. Sidewalks would not be installed unless a majority (more than 501o) of the
homeowners petitioned the city for this service.
The condition of the streets and storm drainage system appears to be good with no obvious
deficient areas. An overlay is not needed at this time, but the streets need to be placed into the
regular maintenance program. We recommend chip -sealing as soon as possible in order to
maintain their good condition for as long as possible. The streets within GVG would be chip
sealed within twenty-four months of the annexations effectiveness. Within five years we would
improve Nicklaus Drive to add curb and gutter to match the rest of the development and improve
drainage within the next five years. The curbing would be paid from the through an SID with the
storm drainage paid for from the storm drain assessment fund. The City will accept ownership
and maintenance of the streets within the GVG development provided the homeownus
association complete the dedication process.
It is difficult to determine personnel requirements to serve this area. Routine snow plowing
is the greatest obligation. This would add about six man-hours of workload per snow event.
Sweeping would impose a somewhat smaller burden of approximately four man-hours per event.
Other road maintenance would be fitted into the current schedule as necessary. Storm drainage
maintenance is estimated to be nominal and not of significant impact. No new streets need to be
constructed or extended into the annexed area.
Page 3 of 6
4. Sewer Service - Sewer system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards. We have a contractual arrangement with North Village County Sewer District to
operate and maintain the facilities and will become owner of the facilities when construction
bonds have been paid. The sewer connection fees are used will continue to be utilized to retire
this debt. There are no apparent infrastructure needs for this system and annexation will involve
no changes to City operations. No new sewer mains will need to be constructed or extended into
the annexed area.
5. Water Service - Water system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards and are the property of the Evergreen district. There would be no obligation on the City
to operate or maintain this system; water maintenance is done by Evergreen.. This is identical to
the situation in Buffalo Stage where the development is in the City but water is provided from
Evergreen facilities. No new water mains will need to be constructed or extended into the
annexed area.
6. Solid Waste (Garbage Collection) - The City will not provide solid waste disposal services to
the annexed area for a minimum of five years, consistent with the provision of 7-24736, M-CA
If after five years the residents petition the City for solid waste service we are prepared to provide
this service with current manpower and equipment
7. Parks - There are no publicly owned parks within the Village Greens development. The
developers chose to meet their parkland requirements by designated their park areas as
homeowners association parks, green space and open areas. Therefor, the City will have no
additional service commitment as a result of the annexation.
8. Recreation - Residents within Village Greens are currently eligible to participate in any of the
City's recreational programs. Therefor, the only impact pertaining to recreation is that the
participating residents will no longer have to pay the higher "out of city" fee. This is expected
to have an extremely minimal effect on recreation fees.
9. Urban Forestry - Urban Forestry - Public right-of-ways are 60 feet within the development.
This offers ample space for boulevard trees. Village Greens will be prioritized with all other
neighborhoods within the City for both the planting of new trees and the maintenance of their
current boulevard trees. The City's forestry program allows for the planting of 110 plus new
boulevard trees annually. In addition, we prune approximately 500 public trees each year.
(lacier Village Greens' requests for trees will be placed on the yearly planting list based on a first
come first serve priority. The individual homeowner will have input to the selection of desirable
Page 4 of 6
tree species and location along the boulevard. The maintenance of these newly planted trees will
be addressed annually for the first five years, then every five to seven years following. This is
based on the operational forestry plan for the newly established City Forestry District.
10. Building and Zoning - The area to be annexed is entirely within the building codes
jurisdiction for the City. We presently issue permits for work in the area and perform
inspections. Annexation will have no effect on our level of service, revenue, or expenditures.
Zoning jurisdiction will be extended to encompass the area in the same manner that all city
ordinances will extend their applicability. Review of budding plans and other zoning functions
will be performed in the annexed area in the same manner as the rest of the City.
Expenditures will not change, but there will be a change in the distribution of permit fees
collected with building permits. Approximately $1, 500 per year will be distributed to the City
Zoning Department rather than the Flathead Regional Development Office, which currently
reviews building plans within the area. The total permit fee will not change.
11. Other Utility Lines - The extension of other utility lines into the area is not necessary to the
area to be annexed.
12. City Assessment Districts - The Storm Sewer, Street Maintenance and Forestry Assessments
will be capped at 10,000 sq ft for the areas within the annexation area that are not platted.
13. Financing of Services - Based on 1999 tax data provided by the Department of Revenue,
the Glacier Village Greens development will generate $64,947 (Dept. of Revenue
spreadsheet). In addition to the millage revenue generated, property owners will be subject
to three assessments which are based on the square footage of each lot. Of the 261 lots within
the annexed area, the majority are 65' x 100' or 6,500 sq. ft. In addition to the lot size, the
Department of Revenue assesses each lot within each phase of the development with an equal
share of the common area for taxing purposes. On average, 3,050 sq ft of common area exist
in each phase of GVG and is added to each of the lots. A number of the lots and common
areas are smaller, and larger, but for purposes of estunating I utilized the average size of
9,550. Based on this estimate the Street Maintenance assessment will generate an estimated
$11,216; the Storm Sewer assessment an estimated $6,847; and the Urban Forestry
assessment will generate an estimated $1,682. Therefore, the total revenue generated from
Glacier Village Greens is estimated at $84,692 per year. This breaks down to approximately
$324 in City taxes and assessments for each lot within Glacier Village Greens. Can the City
provide services to the Glacier Village Greens development without raising taxes? Yes.

ANNEXATION AND ZONING STAFF REPORT #KA-00-7
FLATHEAD REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OFFICE
OCTOBER 2, 2000
The City of Kalispell has initiated annexation proceedings for Glacier Village Greens and
adjoining property to the west. A public hearing has been scheduled before the Kalispell
City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission for October 10, 2000, beginning at
7:00 PM, to consider appropriate zoning for the area proposed to be annexed. The
Planning Board and Zoning Commission will forward a recommendation for appropriate
zoning to the Kalispell City Council for consideration.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City of Kalispell has initiated the annexation of approximately 110 acres of primarily
residential property located northeast of Kalispell under Section 7-2-4300, M.C.A.,
Annexation of Contiguous Lands. On September 5, 2000, the Kalispell City Council
passed Resolution 4581, a resolution of intent to annex. A public hearing date of
October 10, 2000 has been set so that the board might consider appropriate zoning for
the area.
Annexation proceedings for this area were initiated in response to the desire of the
Kalispell City County to bring in properties connected to City water and/or sewer
services but not annexed. The properties proposed for annexation are receiving water
from the Evergreen Water District and sewer service through the Village County Sewer
District. The Village County Sewer District has an agreement with the City of Kalispell
which has a provision for annexation of the properties into the city of Kalispell. The
Kalispell City Council has identified this area as one of the areas that should be brought
into the city because they are receiving City services.
A. Petitioner: City of Kalispell
312 First Avenue East
P.O. Box 1997
Kalispell, MT 59903
(406)758-7700
B. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property proposed for
annexation is located in the southeast part of Kalispell and contains
approximately 110 acres. A property description is attached as Exhibit C.
C. Existing zoning: The properties proposed for annexation are in the County
zoning jurisdiction and are in the Evergreen and Vicinity Zoning District. All of
the properties 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: A City zoning designation will need to be assigned to the
properties intended to be annexed to replace the current County zoning. All of
the properties in the area to be annexed currently have a residential zoning
designation of R-5, Two Family Residential, that allows single family homes and
duplexes and golf courses as a conditionally permitted use. The Kalispell City
County Master Plan map designates this area as Urban Residential which
anticipates a density of two to eight dwellings per acre. Staff is recommending
substantially the same zoning for the Glacier Village Greens development that
would be found under a City R-4, Residential, zoning designation. This district
lists duplex and single family dwellings as permitted uses and lists golf courses
as a conditionally permitted use. Under the City R-5 zoning designation, the
district is a described as a Residential / Professional Office district. This district
allows a number of non-residential uses including clinics, professional and
government offices, title companies, etc., but does not list golf courses as either a
permitted or conditionally permitted use. For these reasons the City R-4,
Residential, district more closely reflects the existing and intended uses for
Glacier Village Greens than does the City R-5, Residential / Professional Office.
The adjoining property to the east contains approximately 15 acres and is
currently undeveloped with the exception of a residence. This property currently
has a County R-5, Two Family Residential, zoning designation. The southwest
portion of this property was recently annexed into the city along with the
preliminary plat for Village Plaza subdivision. The Kalispell City -County Master
Plan map designates the area of Village Plaza as Neighborhood Commercial
which is defined as an area intended to serve residents within a half to three-
quarter mile area and should not exceed five acres in size. Village Plaza was
given a B-1, Neighborhood Buffer District, upon annexation. The subdivision
contains approximately six acres including the road and development is
underway and near completion.
The Kalispell City -County Master Plan map designates the area along Whitefish
Stage Road between Village Plaza and the residential subdivision to the north as
High Density Residential. The remaining area of the property to the east is
designated as Urban Residential. The staff is recommending that the zoning for
this approximately 15 acres be given a zoning designation of RA-3, a Residential
Apartment Office district. This district lists duplex and single family dwellings as
permitted uses as well as clinics and professional and government offices.
Conditionally permitted uses include multifamily dwellings, drive in banks and
other limited residential and non-residential uses. The minimum lot size
requirement of this district is 7,000 square feet plus 1,500 square feet for each
additional dwelling beyond a duplex. The recommended RA-3, Residential
2
Apartment / Office, zoning would allow a mixed use area that appears to provide
a reasonable transition between the neighborhood commercial to the south, the
church uses to the west and the residential uses to the east.
E. Size: The area proposed for annexation and zoning contains approximately 110
acres.
F. Existing Land Use: The land use in the area is primarily single family residential
along with some duplex townhomes. The golf course and clubhouse are part of
the Glacier Village Greens development, but are not part of the area proposed for
annexation.
G. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning:
North: North of the area proposed for annexation is the Glacier Village Greens
golf course and single family residential. The golf course is part of the County R-
5 zoning designation for the development. Zoning to the north is County R-5,
Two Family Residential, and County RA-1, Low Density Apartment along
Whitefish Stage Road.
South: To the south the area is also single family residential with the Hillcrest
Estates subdivision. This area is zoned County R-2, One Family Limited
Residential, and R-1, Suburban Residential. There is also a church on the
southeast corner of West Evergreen Drive and Whitefish Stage Road.
East: Land uses to the east are primarily single family residential and larger
parcels with primarily R-1, Suburban Residential zoning.
West: To the west is the Buffalo Stage development which is in the city and has
a' zoning designation of City RA-1, Low Density Residential Apartment. However,
this development consists mostly of single family dwellings and a few duplex
townhomes. Also in the city to the west and zoned City RA-1 is a church. There
is also the Buffalo Stage Professional Park which is zoned City R-5, Residential
Office and is a medical office complex that has not yet been completed. Edgerton
School is in the County and is zoned RA-1.
H. General Land Use Character: The general land use character of this area 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.
The office uses have developed in the area over the past several years.
Public services can be provided to this site. A separately prepared "Extension of
Services Plan" discusses the provision of public services to this property and is attached
to this report as Exhibit A.

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.
The property proposed for annexation is included in the Kalispell City -County
Master Plan. The master plan map designates the Glacier Village Greens area as
Urban Residential. The adjoining property to the west is designated on the plan
map as Urban Residential to the east and High Density Residential along
Whitefish Stage Road. Staff is recommending that the Glacier Village Greens area
be given a City zoning designation of R-4, Two Family Residential, and the
approximately 15 acres to the east as RA-3, Residential Apartment / Office. The
recommended zoning designations are in substantial compliance with the master
plan for the area.
Some change may be anticipated with the change in zoning to increase
congestion in the street specifically with regard to future office and multifamily
development. However, the uses would be generally consistent with that which
have been anticipated in the area. It maybe noteworthy that Whitefish Stage
Road is anticipated for an overlay between Idaho and West Reserve Drive.
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.

The proposed zoning designations are 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.

The general character of the area is primarily single family residential with a mix
of noncommercial supporting uses such as the churches, school and
neighborhood commercial under development. The proposed zoning has
attempted to create a separation of incompatible uses by retaining a residential
5
designation for the Glacier Village Greens area and allowing more intensive uses
on property to the west which is separated by a bluff. The more intensive uses
would be located on the corner of Whitefish Stage Road and West Evergreen
Drive and appear to be appropriate for the area which has churches, a school
and some offices in the area.
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.
The proposed zoning is in substantial compliance with the Kalispell City County
Master Plan and is intended to reflect the goals for the municipality as well as the
immediate community.
The recommended zoning for the Glacier Village Greens area attempts to zone the area
in compliance with the existing and intended uses for the area. A somewhat detailed
extension of services plan accompanies this report in attached Exhibit A which outlines
which specific services will be provided by the City and how the financing of those
services is proposed.
It is recommended that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning
Commission adopt Staff Report #KA-00-7 as findings of fact and forward a
recommendation to Kalispell City Council to adopt the zoning as shown in the attached
Exhibit B upon annexation into the City of Kalispell.

REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution of Intention to Annex the Glacier Village Greens Area, Northeast
of Kalispell, Contiguous to Whitefish Stage and West Evergreen Drive
MEETING DATE: September 5, 2000
BACK GROUND: In response to direction that was given at the August 28th Council work
session, we have prepared the attached Resolution of Intention to Annex Glacier Village Greens,
Phases I, II, III, IIIA, IIIB, IV, V, VIII, IX, X and Tract 5 which is located in NW 1/4 and SW 1/4
of the SW 1/4 of Sec. 32, T29N, R21 W. Because there is not a Certificate of Survey on record for
the golf course, I recommend that we hold off on this portion of the annexation until a later phase
of the development. This decision also removes Phase VII and the club house site because they will
no longer be contiguous to the proposed annexed property.
I have added those issues which were brought up during our work session, along with the results my
meeting with the Glacier Village Greens Homeowner's Association Tuesday evening. I've also
committed myself, Frank Gamer, Ted Waggener and Jim Hansz to attend the Glacier Village Greens
Annual meeting which will be held September 12th.
In 1982, the City entered into a Sewer District Connection Agreement with the North Village Sewer
District (Glacier Village Greens Development). Paragraph eleven of the Agreement is as follows:
11. The District by this agreement waives the right to protest annexation to the City of
Kalispell, on all or any part of the District, provided, however, that the City shall not initiate
annexation procedures under Section 7-2-4312 until development within the portion to be
annexed reaches 80% of the approved plan development of the area to be annexed.
Section 7-2-4312. Reads as follows:
Section 7-2-4312. Resolution of intent by city or town — notice. When, in the judgment of any
city or town council, expressed by a resolution that is passed and adopted, it is in the best
interest of the city or town and the inhabitants of any contiguous platted tracts or parcels
of land or unplatted land for which a certificate ofsurvey has been filed that the boundaries
of the city or town be extended to include the platted tracts or parcels of land or unplatted
land within the corporate limits of the city or town, the city or town clerk shall.
Page 1 of 6
(1) immediately notify, in writing, all registered voters in the territory to be embraced,
and
(2) cause a notice to be published in the newspaper published nearest the platted tracts
orparcels of land or unplatted land for which certificate ofsurvey has been filed, at least
once a week for 2 successive weeks.
Furthermore, paragraph eighteen of the Agreement states the following:
18. No owner of any parcel of land within the District shall be allowed to hook-up to, or to
contribute to the flow of the sewer main connected to the City's Sewage Treatment System
unless and until said owner has furnished to the City a waiver of right to protest annexation
In Addition to the Agreement, each of the 276 parcel owners have been aware of their "waiver of
right to protest annexation" in two ways. First, 274 of the property owners were notified through
the Covenants that are attached to their deed. Second, Consents to Annex and/or Petitions to Annex
have been signed on Phases I, II, IIIA, IV, VII, IX, and X of the development. For some unknown
reason Phases III, IIIB, V and VIII (88 of 276 total lots did not sign petitions) Therefore, it is
conclusive that the property owners were sufficiently aware of the City's intention to annex Glacier
Village Greens. This opinion is further strengthened by the recent ruling in the Whitefish
annexation case.
What is the impact to the City in providing services to Glacier Village Greens? Currently, Glacier
Village Greens has 276 residential lots. Of the 276 lots approximately 225 have single family homes
or condominiums. By removing the golf course and phase VII from the proposed annexation we are
only removing one house and 16 vacant lots. The Dept. of Commerce estimates that there are 2.7
occupants per household within the US, however, because of the demographic make-up of Glacier
Village Greens we would suggest that it is closer to 2.0 per house hold. This gives us a range of 450
to 600 residents within the development. After discussing this estimate with the Association we feel
strongly that 450 is a good estimate. It was indicated during our conversations that there are a
number of single occupant properties. See the attached location map and plat map of the
development.
The following is a description of services the City of Kalispell will provide the residents of Glacier
Village Greens development upon annexation.
Police Coverage - In preparing the plan we examined the call -load ratio for the region, the
demographic features, the population base and the inherent architectural features related to
safety.
We analyzed the call -load ratio for the area from our records and those of the Flathead
County Sheriffs Office to help determine a calls -for -service need. This area is in our zone
number 4 which generally runs north of US-2 and east of Main Street. Zone 4 is the lowest calls -
for -service area in the city with approximately 1400 calls per year. The Flathead County Sheriffs
Office indicated the calls -for -service in the area was very low.
The subdivision is flanked on the east by Stillwater River and on the west by steep ridges.
The area has only two access roads on the south side of the property with fencing between the
ridges and the river. The area receives very little transient traffic that is not connected to the golf
Page 2 of 6
operation because there are no through avenues. The subdivision is well lit and the homes are
in close proximity to each other. These features suggest that there will be a very low law
enforcement caseload. There is some floodplain concern that would require law enforcement
services if a flood required an evacuation of the area.
In conclusion, the low calls -for -service ratio of the area, along with the absence of a
significant call load in the subdivision, suggests that the demand on our services will be low. The
demographic profile of the area, that of adult middle income families, is generally one with a low
calls -for -service profile.
The population numbers suggest that the area will require approximately .8 officers based
on the low population estimate of 450 residents. That figure is based on the "Law Enforcement
in Montana" survey which rates law enforcement ratios in cities of our size in the state at 1.8
officers per 1000 residents. (x/450 residents = 1.8/1000 residents). We must also anticipate
some impact on our dispatch services that will require that we budget additional money for part-
time staff. We also anticipate a very small caseload on our animal warden services.
It is our opinion that we can extend services to this area without the addition of any
employees through increased efficiency and zone response. We feel we can generally provide
excellent service to the area because of its proximity to existing service areas and the inherent
low calls -for -service overall profile of the area. We must stress that the cumulative affect of
annexations such as these will result in a need for additional full-time staff and proportional
funding for support staff.
Fire/Ambulance Coverage - The Kalispell Fire/Ambulance Department made an inspection
of Glacier Village Greens Subdivision in order to determine the impact annexation would have
on the fire department. Our present manpower to population ration is I fireman per 800
population. Consequently, this annexation would cause the fire department to require 0.56
fireman based on the 450 estimated residents.
The distance from our station to the last house in this subdivision is 3.8 miles. We estimate
our response time at six to seven minutes. There are currently 23 fire hydrants for the Evergreen
Water Department in this subdivision. We are charged $60 per year rent on these hydrants, so
that would be a cost to our budget of $1380 per year. We have served this subdivision since it's
beginning with our E. M.S. System.
It is our opinion, that since we already serve this area with E. M. S., and since it is a new
subdivision built to current building and fire codes, the run volume for fire should be quite low.
We would like to point out, however, that this subdivision is on the Northeast edge if our city
limits, where a substation is a consideration at this time. We would not propose hiring additional
manpower as a result of this annexation, however, the cumulative effect of growth and
annexation will create a demand for additional manpower in the future.
I am working with the Department of Revenue to accurately calculate the annexation's
impact to the Evergreen Rural Fire District. I am also working to find out how the over all
growth in Evergreen has impacted the department's revenue. I will be meeting with Chief
Yerkes of the Evergreen Volunteer Fire Department Friday afternoon. I am optimistic that a
positive relationship can be developed however, I know from experience that this will not happen
overnight.
Public Works - Our review of the street system is based on the assumption that the Homeowners
Association would want to dedicate the streets to the City. This is not required, and is a separate
Page 3 of 6
action from the annexation that must be taken by the Association and the City council. I would
recommend that we accept the streets if asked by the Association. Streets are in generally good
condition and appear to meet the City's standard cross section with curb and gutter. The first
phase portion of Nicklaus Drive is the exception. It is constructed to the City's alternate cross
section design that does not include curb and gutter. The other exception is that sidewalks have
not been installed in the development. The condition of the streets appears to be good with no
obvious deficient areas. It is our opinion that overlay is not needed, but that the streets should
be placed into the regular maintenance program to be chip -sealed as soon as possible in order
to maintain their good condition for as long as possible. We would further recommend
improving Nicklaus Drive (phase I) to add curb and gutter to match the rest of the development
and improve drainage. It is my understanding, per my conversation with the homeowners
association president, that the developers have a responsibility to upgrade Phase I. At the time
of the memo I was not able to verify this obligation.
Storm drainage facilities have been installed and there are no obvious deficiencies. Potential
catch basin and piping improvements may be needed if curb and gutter is added to Nicklaus
Drive in order to ensure proper function of the system.
Evergreen Drive from Whitefish Stage Road to the Whitefish River is a County maintained
road. It appears to be in generally good condition and appears to meet County standards. There
are no obvious immediate improvements needed for this section of Evergreen Drive that would
place a burden on City resources. Because our sewer line is not within the Evergreen Drive
right-of-way I am not advocating that we annex any portion of Evergreen Drive at this time.
It is difficult to determine the personnel requirements to serve this area. Routine snow
plowing is the greatest obligation. This would add about six man-hours of workload per event.
Sweeping would impose a somewhat smaller burden of approximately four man-hours per event.
Other road maintenance would be fitted into the current schedule as necessary. Water
maintenance is done by Evergreen. There would be no changes in sewer system maintenance
because this is being done at present by the City. Storm drainage maintenance is estimated to be
nominal and not of significant impact.
We were able to identify a statistic that identified the need for 2.5 public works employees
for every 1,000 residents in order to perform ALL public work responsibilities (streets, water,
sewer, solid waste, storm sewer, support staff etc.) Utilizing this figure, you would estimate the
need in public works to be approx. 1.1 employees, however, as I mentioned above we already
provide sanitary sewer, water is Evergreen's, solid waste is a minimum of five years out and so
we are estimating an overall impact of 0.5 employee.
Sewer Service - Sewer system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards. They are currently the property of North Village County Sewer District. We have a
contractual arrangement with North Village to operate and maintain the facilities and will
become owner of the facilities when bonds for construction have been paid. There are no
apparent infrastructure needs for this system and annexation will involve no changes to City
operations.
As a result of the annexation, sewer users will no longer have to pay the out -of -city sewer
rate which is 25% higher than the in -city rate. This will save each user approx. $50 per year and
cost the sewer fund approx. $11,250.
Water Service - Water system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards and are the property of the Evergreen district. There would be no obligation on the City
to operate or maintain this system. This is identical to the situation in Buffalo Stage where the
development is in the City but water is provided from Evergreen facilities.
Page 4 of 6
Solid Waste (Garbage Collection) - The City will not provide solid waste disposal services to
the annexed area for a minimum of five years, consistent with the provision of 7-2-4736, M.C.A.
Parks - There are no publicly owned parks within the Glacier Village Greens development. The
developers chose to meet their parkland requirements by designated their park areas as
homeowners association parks, green space and open areas. Therefore, the City will have no
additional service commitment as a result of the annexation. After discussing this issue with the
Association I would be surprised if the City is asked to consider making them public. I would
be reluctant to accept the parks as public city parks if asked by the Association. I believe that
making them public parks would neither be in the best interest ofthe City nor the residents living
within Glacier Village Greens.
Recreation - Residents within Glacier Village Greens are currently eligible to participate in any
of the City's recreational programs. Therefor, the only impact pertaining to recreation is that the
participating residents will no longer have to pay the higher "out of city" fee. This is expected
to have an extremely minimal effect on recreation fees.
Urban Forestry - Public right-of-ways are 60 feet within the development. This offers ample
space for boulevard trees. Glacier Village Greens will be prioritized with all other
neighborhoods within the City for both the planting of new trees and the maintenance of their
current boulevard trees.
What tax revenue will be derived by the annexation? The Glacier Village Greens development will
generate $64,947 in general tax revenue based on 1999 assessment numbers (Dept. Of Revenue
spreadsheet). Of the 259 lots within the development, the majority are 65' x 100' equating to 6,500
sq. ft. There are a number of lots that are smaller, and some that are larger, but for purposes of
estimating I utilized the average size of 6,500. In addition to the millage revenue generated, property
owners will be subject to three assessments. The Street Maintenance assessment will generate an
estimated $7,575; the Storm Sewer assessment an estimated $4,623; and the Urban Forestry
assessment will generate an estimated $1,134. Therefore, the total revenue generated from Glacier
Village Greens is estimated at $78,279 per year. This breaks down to approximately $302 in City
taxes and assessments for each lot within Glacier Village Greens.
Can the City provide services to the Glacier Village Greens development without raising taxes? Yes.
See the following chart which is derived from the narrative above. The manpower estimates have
not been altered based on the removal of Phase VII and the golf course, however the revenue
numbers have been reduced.

RECOMMENDATION: The City Council approve the attached Resolution of Intention to Annex
the Glacier Village Greens Area, North East of Kalispell Contiguous to Whitefish Stage and West
Evergreen Drive.
FISCAL EFFECTS: The cost of services as compared to the revenue produced by the
annexation are almost identical. Please note that we will not be hiring additional personnel as a
result of this annexation, however, the cumulative effect of growth and annexation will eventually
result in the need for additional personnel and/or contracted services.

CITY OF KALISPELL
PROPOSAL TO ANNEX GLACIER VILLAGE GREENS AND
THE WESTERLY ADJACENT PROPERTY
CURRENTLY ZONED R-5, TWO FAMILY RESIDENTIAL
EVERGREEN ZONING DISTRICT
PLOT DATE:9/19/00
FILE## KA - 0 0 - 7 SCALE 1" = 6 6 01 H:\&\s1te\KA00_7.dwg
Exhibit A
Extension of Services Plan
Glacier Village Greens Annexation Area
The purpose for this Extension of Services Plan is to compliment the City's over-all Extension of
Services Plan that was adopted by Resolution 4241 in November of 1995 and amended by
Resolution 4450 in March of 1999. This plan provides the City Council and the citizens within the
annexed area with a detailed five year services plan specific to the area to be annexed. Attached is
a map of the proposed land to be annexed into the City. Generally, the area is north east of the
Whitefish Stage and West Evergreen Drive intersection.
The area to be annexed is predominantly single family homes owned by retired couples. If we
use an estimate of 2 persons per household on a 191 home base, the estimated service population
would be 382 persons. In addition to population, we examined the call load ratio for the region, the
demographic and topographical features related to the infrastructure and public safety needs.
1. Police Coverage - We analyzed the call -load ratio for the area from our records and those of
the Flathead County Sheriff's Office to help determine a calls -for -service need. This area is in
our zone number 4 (northeast quadrant of the City, north of US-2 and east of Main Street). Zone
4 is the lowest calls -for -service area in the city with approximately 1400 calls per year. The
subdivision is flanked on the east by Whitefish River and on the west by steep ridges. Roughly
99% of the homes within the annexed area are within the Glacier Village Greens development
which has only two access roads on the south side of the property with fencing between the
ridges and the river. The area receives very little transient traffic that is not connected to the golf
operation because there are no through avenues. The subdivision is well lit and the homes are
in close proximity to each other.
The population numbers suggest that the area will require approximately .7 officers based
on the low population estimate of 382 residents. That figure is based on the "Law Enforcement
in Montana" survey which rates law enforcement ratios in cities of our size in the state at 1.8
officers per 1000 residents (x/382 residents=1.8/1000 residents). We must also anticipate some
impact on our dispatch services that will require that we budget additional money for part-time
staff. We also anticipate a very small caseload on our animal warden services.
Over the first five years after annexation the Kalispell Police Department will attempt to
accomplish a number of goals related to Glacier Village Greens. The department has one, three
and five year goals.
7'agc l 6
1 use 1 vt
Year One
F
1. The Kalispell Police Department will assist the residents of Glacier Village Greens in
creating a Neighborhood Watch program.
2. The Kalispell Police Department will develop a zone response plan for Glacier Village
Greens.
a. Zone response is a method of assigning officers to a specific neighborhood. The
advantages include increasing the officer's familiarity with the area, increasing theresident's
familiarity with the officer, and improving response efficiency.
3. The Kalispell Police Department will notify each household in writing of their new law
enforcement service provider.
4. The Kalispell Police Department will notify the telephone service provider that 911 calls
from this area should be re -directed to the Kalispell Police Department Dispatch Center.
Year Three
1. The Kalispell Police Department will encourage all residents to have their homes
numbered and will attempt to ensure that all street signs are in place.
2. The Kalispell Police Department will encourage participation from residents of Glacier
Village Greens on the Police Advisory Council.
Year Five
1. The Kalispell Police Department will review the delivery of services plan and calls for
service for Glacier Village Greens to determine if any law enforcement improvements can
be made for the area.
We can extend services to this area without the addition of any employees through increased
efficiency and zone response. We feel we can provide excellent service to the area because of
its proximity to existing service areas and the inherent low calls -for -service overall profile of the
area.
2. Fire/Ambulance Coverage - The Kalispell Fire/Ambulance Department made an inspection
of Village Greens Subdivision in order to determine the impact annexation would have on the
fire department. Our present manpower to population ration is 1 fireman per 800 population.
Consequently, this annexation would cause the fire department to require 0.5 fireman. The FD
has added two firemen/paramedics to its department within the last 90 days.
The distance from our station to the last house in this subdivision is 3.8 miles. We estimate
our response time at six to seven minutes. There are currently 23 fire hydrants for the Evergreen
Water Department in this subdivision. We are charged $60 per year rent on these hydrants, so
that would be a cost to our budget of S 1380 per year. We have served this subdivision since it's
beginning with our E. M.S. System.

will extend their applicability. Review of building plans and other zoning functions will be
performed in the annexed area in the same manner as the rest of the City. Expenditures will not
change, but there will be a change in the distribution of permit fees collected with building
permits. Approximately $1,500 per year will be distributed to the City Zoning Department rather
than the Flathead Regional Development Office, which currently reviews building plans within
the area. The total permit fee will not change.
11. Other Utility Lines - The extension of other utility lines into the area is not necessary to the area
to be annexed.
12. City Assessment Districts - The Storm Sewer, Street Maintenance and Forestry Assessments
will be capped at 10,000 sq ft for the areas within the annexation area that are not platted.
13. Financing of Services - Based on 1999 tax data provided by the Department of Revenue, the
Glacier Village Greens development will generate S64,947 (Dept. of Revenue spreadsheet). In
addition to the millage revenue generated, property owners will be subject to three assessments
which are based on the square footage of each lot. Of the 261 lots within the annexed area, the
majority are 65' x 100' or 6,500 sq. ft. In addition to the lot size, the Department of Revenue
assesses each lot within each phase of the development with an equal share of the common area
for taxing purposes. On average, 3,050 sq ft of common area exist in each phase of GVG and
is added to each of the lots. A number of the lots and common areas are smaller, and larger, but
for purposes of estimating I utilized the average size of 9,550. Based on this estimate the Street
Maintenance assessment will generate an estimated S11,216; the Storm Sewer assessment an
estimated $6,847;. and the Urban Forestry assessment will generate an estimated $1,682.
Therefore, the total revenue generated from Glacier Village Greens is estimated at $84,692 per
year. This breaks down to approximately $324 in Citytaxes and assessments for each lot within
Glacier Village Greens.
Can the City provide services to the Glacier Village Greens development without raising
taxes? Yes.

and the area may be annexed without a bond issue.
Page 6 of 6
Looking ahead over the next five years the FD is working diligently to improve its ISO
rating. We expect to have a review within the next eighteen months that will lower insurance
premiums for all city residents. We are working to strengthen our relationship with our rural fire
departments neighbors in an effort to develop automatic aid agreements to help save lives and
property no matter what political jurisdiction you reside in. This subdivision is on the Northeast
edge if our city limits, where a substation is a consideration at this time.
We already serve this area with E. M. S., and since it is a new subdivision built to current
building and fire codes, the run volume for fire should be quite low and as a result we can service
this area with our current manpower.
3. Streets and Street Maintenance - Streets are in generally good condition and appear to meet
the City's standard cross section with curb and gutter with two exceptions. The first phase
portion ofNicklaus Drive is constructed to the City's alternate cross section design that does not
include curb and gutter. The other exception is that sidewalks have not been installed in the
development. Sidewalks would not be installed unless a majority (more than 50%) of the
homeowners petitioned the city for this service.
The condition of the streets and storm drainage system appears to be good with no obvious
deficient areas. An overlay is not needed at this time, but the streets need to be placed into the
regular maintenance program. We recommend chip -sealing as soon as possible in order to
maintain their good condition for as long as possible. The streets within GVG would be chip
sealed within the next twenty-four months. Within the next five years we would improve
Nicklaus Drive to add curb and gutter to match the rest of the development and improve drainage
within the next five years. The curbing would be paid from the through an SID with the storm
drainage paid for from the storm drain assessment fund.
It is difficult to determine personnel requirements to serve this area. Routine snow plowing
is the greatest obligation. This would add about six man-hours of workload per snow event.
Sweeping would impose a somewhat smallerburden of approximately four man-hours per event.
Other road maintenance would be fitted into the current schedule as necessary. Storm drainage
maintenance is estimated to be nominal and not of significant impact. No new streets need to
be constructed or extended into the annexed area.
4. Sewer Service - Sewer system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards. We have a contractual arrangement with North Village County Sewer District to
operate and maintain the facilities and will become owner of the facilities when construction
bonds have been paid. The sewer connection fees are used will continue to be utilized to retire
this debt. There are no apparent infrastructure needs for this system and annexation will involve
no changes to City operations. No new sewer mains will need to be constructed or extended into
the annexed area.
Page 3 of 6
5. Water Service - Water system facilities are reasonably new and were installed to Montana
standards and are the property of the Evergreen district. There would be no obligation on the City
to operate or maintain this system; water maintenance is done by Evergreen.. This is identical
to the situation in Buffalo Stage where the development is in the City but water is provided from
Evergreen facilities. No new water mains will need to be constructed or extended into 'the
annexed area.
6. Solid Waste (Garbage Collection) - The City will not provide solid waste disposal sen•ices to
the annexed area for a minimum of five years, consistent with the provision of 7-2-4736, M.C.A.
If after five years the residents petition the City for solid waste service we are prepared to
provide this service with current manpower and equipment
7. Parks - There are no publicly owned parks within the Village Greens development. The
developers chose to meet their parkland requirements by designated their park areas as
homeowners association parks, green space and open areas. Therefor, the City will have no
additional service commitment as a result of the annexation.
8. Recreation - Residents within Village Greens are currently eligible to participate in any of the
City's recreational programs. Therefor, the only impact pertaining to recreation is that the
participating residents will no longer have to pay the higher "out of city" fee. This is expected
to have an extremely minimal effect on recreation fees.
9. Urban Forestry - Urban Forestry - Public right-of-ways are 60 feet within the development.
This offers ample space for boulevard trees. Village Greens will be prioritized with all other
neighborhoods within the City for both the planting of new trees and the maintenance of their
current boulevard trees. The City's forestry program allows for the planting of 110 plus new
boulevard trees annually. In addition, we prune approximately 500 public trees each year.
Glacier Village Greens' requests for trees will be placed on the yearly planting list based on a
first come first serve priority. The individual homeowner will have input to the selection of
desirable tree species and location along the boulevard. The maintenance of these newly planted
trees will be addressed annually for the first five years, then every five to seven years following.
This is based on the operational forestry plan for the newly established City Forestry District.
10. Building and Zoning - The area to be annexed is entirely within the building codes jurisdiction
for the City. We presently issue permits for work in the area and perform inspections.
Annexation will have no effect on our level of service, revenue, or expenditures. Zoning
jurisdiction will be extended to encompass the area in the same manner that all city ordinances

Re: Glacier Village Greens Letters of Protest
Attached is a list of Protest/Disapproval forms that have been signed and filed from residents of Glacier Village
Greens. Instead of making copies of each, I have typed a list of every person that signed a Protest. I have also
included one of the signed forms as an example of what they all look like.
I have also enclosed all of the letters I have received concerning the proposed annexation. All of the people
who submitted a letter, except two, also signed a Protest/Disapproval form.
If you would like to look at all of the Protest forms signed, they are available in my office.

Re: Glacier Village Greens annexation
This letter expresses our opposition to the proposed annexation. In our opinion this is a unilateral
benefit with the city of Kalispell being the only benefactor. We currently have trash pick-up,
which we pay for, water, which we pay for, police protection from an excellent sheriffs
department, sewer, which we pay a 25% surcharge to the city of Kalispell; snow removal, which
we pay for. Our current taxes plus the fees we pay for the preceding, totals much less than the
taxes we would pay the city of Kalispell with NO additional benefit to Village Greens.
The city of Kalispell would benefit through Village Greens property taxes. Ibis is simply a way
for Kalispell to receive increased revenues with no reciprocal benefit to the taxpayer.
We strongly oppose this annexation.

As a resident of Village Greens, I am writing my disapproval of the proposed
annexation plan. It is untimely, and of no benefit to me.
I am aware of your previous plan to annex the "strip". I feel that is where you
are presently going with this move.
I feel I have all the amenities I need here presently, and see no benefit
whatsoever. I do, however, see a high raise in taxes coming. As the city
manager said, "No guarantees". I have always felt that Kalispell is greedy,
thus the absence of business here. I also wonder what you will do when you
reach the contiguous area next to Evergreen School? Will that be annexed
into District #5? I also do not desire licensing my golf cart, or paying taxes on
that equipment!
I see no benefit, I vote against annexation.

Dear Miss White:
At the fall meeting of home owners of Village Greens, held at the Elks on
9/12/00, the City Manager of Kalispell, spoke of the proposed forced annexation of
Village Greens to the City of Kalispell, he made the following statements:
1. The average increase in our yearly taxes to the city of Kalispell would be
between $200 and $300, depending on the size of the lot and home. Why did the town-
house owners at Fairway Boulevard immediately be assessed over $500 increase?when
they were annexed years ago?
2. We were told that we have been paying 225 more per month for serer fee
than other city residents. I don't recall his saying that this would be discon-
tinued.
3. Homes in Village Greens without curbs and gutters would be forced to pro-
vide these at their expense.
4. Several residences within the city of Kalispell are not part of the city.
What provision is made for them and sewer service?
5. The City of Kalispell would no more than break even by annexing Village
Greens. What exactly would be done with the added tax revenue, he mentioned 1
more city policeman and the fire truck coming when needed. All?
I am one who is opposed to annexation. I am one who was never aware of the
agreement between Bitney-Schultz and the City of Kalispell. I can see no advan-
tage to annexation, other than street plowing. flow can a city capriciously hop b
skip around at their pleasure, omitting many viable residences and businesses to
get at others?
Sincerely,
?ees B. Sandon
