CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT STAFF REPORT KCU-00-7
OCTOBER 3, 2000
A report to the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council
regarding a conditional use permit to allow a day care center in an RA-3 zoning
district. A public hearing has been scheduled before the planning board for October
10, 2000 beginning at 7:00 PM in the Kalispell City Council Chambers in Kalispell.
The planning board will forward a recommendation to the Kalispell City Council for
final action.
A. Petitioner: Wayne and Suzanne Elliott
1221 Eighth Ave. East
Kalispell, MT 59901
(406) 752-2320
B. Size and Location: The property proposed for the day care center is located
on the west side of Airport Road approximately 100 feet south of 18th Street
West and the address is 1818 Airport Road, Kalispell. It can be described as
Lot 1, Purdy Addition located in Section 19, Township 28 North, Range 21 West,
P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.
C. Nature of Request: The applicants are requesting a conditional use permit to
allow the operation of a cay care center for a maximum of 36 children. The
center would be open Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM until 6:00 PM. The
ages of the children would be from infant to eight years old. Small groups of
age appropriate children would be created and there would be five staff
members. The day care center would be licensed by the state and would be
subject to all of the applicable health and safety codes relating to a child care
center.
D. Existing Land Use and Zoning: There is an existing building on the site that
has approximately 2,000 square feet. This former residence was converted to
an office use and all of the necessary building code and handicapped
accessibility upgrades have been made. Some additional improvements would
be made to the property and building to make it safe for the children and to
comply with codes related to the facility. Additional fencing would be placed
around the back yard, the parking lot would be restriped, and minor
modifications would be made to one of the bathrooms.
The zoning for the property is RA-3, High Density Residential. This district
allows single-family homes and duplexes as permitted uses and multi -family as
conditionally permitted uses. Some office uses are also listed as permitted
uses in the district. The day care center is listed as a conditionally permitted
use. The minimum lot size requirement for the RA-3 zoning district is 7,000
square feet plus and additional 1,500 square feet for each dwelling beyond a
duplex.
E. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses Zoning: This area can be described as a
mix of residential, commercial and industrial uses in the area.
North: Residential and undeveloped, RA-3 zoning
South: Single family and multi -family dwellings, RA-3 zoning
West: Mobile home park, County R-1 zoning
East: City airport runway, P-1 zoning
F. Master Plan Designation: This property is within the boundaries of the
Kalispell City -County Master Plan. The master plan map designates this area
as High Density Residential. The master plan anticipates day care centers and
schools throughout the planning jurisdiction at strategic locations as the need
arises. This location appears to be good with regard to its proximity to services
and accessibility by the public. This proposal is in substantial compliance with
the master plan.

Evaluation of the Request:
a. Adequate Useable Space: The site where the building is located contains
slightly over one third of an acre or 14,000 square feet. There is a
developed parking lot on site that will be restriped to meet the needs of the
day care center. There is a rear yard area that can be well developed as a
play area for the children. It appears that there is adequate useable space
on the property to accommodate the proposed use, parking, access, play
area and setbacks.
b. Adequate Access: Access to the property is from Airport Road from two
existing developed accesses. Airport Road is a paved City street in
reasonably good condition. There is an established parking area that will
be easily accessed by parents and a drop off / pick-up area will be
established near the entrance.
c. Environmental Constraints: There are no obvious environmental
constraints associated with this property. The site can generally be
described as level with a zero percent slope overall. There is no surface
water in the immediate area. No impacts to the groundwater can be
anticipated because this property is served by community water and sewer
2
systems.
a. Parking Scheme: The City zoning ordinance require a minimum of one
parking space per employee plus one loading space per six children. It is
anticipated that there would five employees and a maximum of 36 children
served by this day care center. This would generate a need for 11 parking
spaces. Two of the loading and unloading spaces can be provided on the
street. The site plan indicates that 11 parking spaces can be
accommodated with two of the loading spaces being located on the street
and the other nine spaces being located within the existing parking lot.
Restriping the parking lot would need to be done to clearly delineate the
parking needs for the day care center.
b. Traffic Circulation: Traffic enters this site from one of two existing
approaches from Airport Road. The circulation within the parking lot is
good with two accesses. A pick-up and drop off area will be created near
the main entrance of the building. Access to the site is generally good and
so is the traffic circulation within the site.
c. Open Space: There are no special setback requirements for schools other
than the standard setbacks for the RA-3 zoning district. The existing
building meets the RA-3 setback requirements. There is also a large grassy
area in the rear of the property, which will be developed as a play area for
the children and fenced.
d. Fencing/Sc�ingf .ands aping: There is some landscaping on the
property, which was previously developed that consists of a small island
between the driveways. Additionally, there is a grassy area in the back that
has some small trees and shrubs that will be used as a play area. Fencing
will be extended so that the entire rear yard is enclosed and the children
would be protected. No additional fencing, screening or landscaping
appears to be appropriate in conjunction with this proposal.
e. Signage: A existing four by six foot sign that would be changed'to the child
care center. No additional signage is anticipated to be needed and none is
proposed. Directional signs and parking signs would not be subject to
review and may be needed.
M;111 1111 M1111 r. • 0MMMM
a. Schools: This development is within the boundaries of School District #5
and would have no known impacts to the school district associated with
this use other than to provide another educational alternatives to the public
schools.
b. Parks and Recreation: No park areas are in close proximity to the proposed
day care center. Some occasional field trips might be made which would
use the City parks. Additional impacts to the park programs will be
insignificant.
3
c. Police: This property is within the jurisdiction of the Kalispell Police
Department. Because of the nature of the proposed use, any additional
impacts to the department would be insignificant.
d. Fire Protection: Fire protection is be provided by the City of Kalispell. Fire
risk appears to be low because of the topography and relatively good access
to the area. The Kalispell Building Department reviews the structure for
building code compliance for a use of this nature and compliance with any
necessary changes. Additional improvements to the driveway and parking
lot may be required in order to provide adequate emergency access.
e. Water: The water system for this property is provided by the City of
Kalispell. Impacts to the system will be minimal as a result of this use.
f. Sewer: Sewer service is provided by the City of Kalispell. No significant
impact to the sewer system can be anticipated as a result of the proposed
use.
g. Solid Waste: Solid waste will be collected by the City of Kalispell and taken
to the Flathead County Landfill. There is sufficient capacity within the
landfill to accommodate this additional solid waste generated from this use.
h. Roads: According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip General
Manual there could be as many as 70 vehicle trips per day generated as a
result of the 36 child day care center. This would be an insignificant
increase in the overall traffic volumes associated with Airport Road.
4. Immediate Neighborhood Im:a t: The general character of this neighborhood is
residential to the south and west with some businesses to the north. The City
airport is to the east. This use appears to fit well with the neighborhood character
of the area and will be an asset to the community as a whole since day care is a
critical community service that is in short supply. The proximity of the property is
well situated to serve the community. Airport Road is designated as a collector
street and adequate to accommodate the additional traffic, which might be
generated as a result of this use. This use will be an asset to the character of this
area and negative impacts would be insignificant.
A notice of public hearing was mailed to property owners within 150 feet of the
subject property approximately 15 days prior to the hearing. At the writing of the
staff report, no comments have been received by the staff from the public or adjoining
landowners.
1. The site appears to provide adequate usable space for access and parking, and
there are no significant environmental constraints.
0
2. The overall design of the site is in substantial compliance with the development
standards and requirements of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance.
3. Public services such as community water and sewer, schools, fire protection and
adequate roadways exist in the area to accommodate the school.
4. There will be no significant negative impacts to the character of the area as a
result of the proposed use.
RPIMMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Kalispell City County Planning Board adopt staff report
#KCU-00-7 as findings of fact and forward a recommendation to the Kalispell City
Council to grant the Conditional Use Permit for the day care center subject to the
following conditions:
1. That the site will be utilized as proposed in the approved site plan which
identifies the location of the parking areas and driveways.
2. That the applicants shall confer with and comply with any requirements of the
Kalispell Building Department as they relate to fire safety, construction
standards, ingress and egress or other issues.
3. That the Kalispell fire chief or his designee shall review the fire and emergency
access to the site and that any improvements be made if necessary.
4. That the facility will be licensed in accordance with the requirements of the State.
5. That the conditional use permit shall terminate 12 months from the date of
approval if the school operations have not commenced. A continuous, good faith
effort to operate shall be considered a commencement.

My name is Suzanne Elliott. I would like to obtain a Conditional Use Permit so that I
can use the property of 1818 Airport Road as a Child Care Center. I would like to license the
program for 36 children - infants through 8 years old. There is a great need in this community
for good, quality infant and toddler care. The program would be open Monday through Friday
from 7:30 am until 6:00 pm. The children will be grouped into small classes of similar ages so
that the children will get plenty of one-on-one care. The program will be a structured program
with age -appropriate activities for the different groups of children. This facility is perfect for a
program like this because there is plenty of room, all handicapped codes have been met, the
parking lot is in place, the backyard is spacious and hidden from sight from the road, there is a
bathroom at each end of the house, a sign is already in place on the outside of the building, and
the location is easily accessible for parents.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in elementary education with a concentration in early
childhood. I was the Director of Trinity Lutheran Child Care Center for 6 years, from June 1994
to June 2000. 'Trinity's program was licensed for 2 '/2 to 12 years old. 1 now have an infant of
mine own and would like to begin a child care program for infants and older. This would be my
own business. I would like to open this program as soon as possible because I already have a
number of people that are in need of quality care for their infants and toddlers.
Thank you for taking the time to review my application.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Elliott

follows: Directly behind the lot is a mobile home court with 8 units; residential homes are on
either side, and across 18"' Street is the airfield for Strand Aviation. Physical changes that need
to be made to the property as it stands now would be as follows: 1) To complete the fencing in
the backyard so that it is completely enclosed, 2) Repaint the parking lot lines so that nine spaces
are available instead of the current five parking spaces, 3) Remodel one bathroom to meet
handicapped codes, and 4) Add handrails to the handicapped ramp and two steps inside. The
sign on the front of the building that is already in place near the front left window would be
changed to display the Center's name - Sunbeams & Rainbows Child Care.

handicapped parking space in the front yard. An additional S spaces would be needed to meet
city codes for 36 children and S staff members. There is room to add three parking spaces if the
lines were repainted, and we would utilize the allowable two on -street parking spaces.
Vehicles would enter one driveway access and leave through the other for one-way traffic.
Please refer to the site plan of the property to see the proposed parking plan.
D. All city services for garbage disposal are available and in place.
E. All city services for utilities are in place
F. The back yard is not risible from the street because it is directly behind the house. Any
children playing outside would not be visible from the street. The front yard is a neatly paved
parking lot and the front of the house is well kept.
