This is a bid advertisement for a new Base Radio Network System for the Police and
Fire Departments. It was originally submitted as a budget request for FY/2000. The
equipment qualifies as a tax increment expenditure and since we have the available
funds and budget authority, it is suggested that we do it this year. A Motion to
approve the consent agenda will include the authority to request bids on the upgrade.
Agenda Item No. 2. )gear the Public
Agenda Item No. 3. Developers Agreement with City Service - Westbrook Square
The City Staff has negotiated a Developers Agreement with City Service in accordance with
Council direction provided on March 1, 1999.
The company has provided a public easement so that the City can reimburse the company for
all of the landscaping, beautification, sidewalk, and curb work on the right-of-way and in the
public easement. The estimated cost of this work is $53,035. The improvements will be
2
located on the South boundary line of the property. These funds will be appropriated from
the Westside Urban Renewal Project subject to the budget amendment, completion of the
project and inspection by the City. City Service would complete their work on the Westbrook
Square Project estimated to cost $904,302 by no later than July 31, 1999.
They have eliminated all of the trees except the existing ones, all of the shrubs, and
substantially cut back the total landscape area in their new landscape plan. The agreement
requires City Service to be responsible for the maintenance of the landscaped area both in the
right-of-way and within the new easement. A Motion to approve the agreement is
appropriate.
Aeenda Item No. 4. Request for Proposal - Lot 1 - Daley Field
The City Attorney has prepared a solicitation of offer to purchase or lease a 2.98 acre
parcel (121,808 square feet) referred to as Lot 1 of the Daley Field Subdivision. The
offering document establishes a fair market value of $4.00 per square foot or
approximately $519,000. The City will accept the proposal that best meets the goals
and objectives of the "Kalispell City Airport/Athletic Complex Redevelopment Plan."
In accordance with City Council direction, a ground lease option is included in the
document. The City will require an annual lease payment to be approximately 10%
of the value of the property. Proposals will be accepted until June 9, 1999. A Motion
to approve the solicitation of offers would be appropriate.

Agenda Item No. 5. Low -Cost Evaluation of WWTP Capacity and Upgrade
Feasibility
Public Works Director Jim Hansz has received three requests from consultants to evaluate
the capacity and upgrade potential of the Waste Water Treatment Plant. He has
recommended that Santee Consultants who originally designed the plant be used to do this
work. This item of work was not included in the current budget but funds are available in the
budget to accomplish this task which is estimated to cost $10,000. It can be completed in
approximately 60 days. The plant at peak season is operating at 58% of capacity. When it
reaches 75% to 80% we will need to initiate a planning process to expand the capacity. While
we have the funds to do this, it is my recommendation that it not be done until we reach a
higher capacity of usage. While the consultants will do a majority of the work, it is another
contract for Public Works to administer and their time can better be devoted to other
functions.
Agenda Item No. 6. Resolution 4456 - Public Hearing Notice for Budget
Amendments
There are five budget amendments that need to be noticed for a Public Hearing on
April 19, and they will each require an individual resolution and Motion.
A. Resolution 4456 - Universal Police Grant
This resolution will permit the City to move this grant program for two
"COPS" officers to a special fund rather than the general fund.
4
This resolution will allow the Council to spend $90,000 from the Westside
Urban Renewal fund. We did not budget any expenditures from this fund for
the current year. If the Developers Agreement is approved for Westbrook, this
will allow the City to pay for the work this fiscal year.
C. Resolution 4458 - Highway Traffic Study
This resolution will allow the City to use the $10,500 grant for a traffic safety
trailer for the Police Department.
D. Resolution 4459 - Big Sky Manor
This resolution will provide budget authority to use UDAG funds for the loan
to the Big Sky Manor developer.
E. Resolution 4460 - SID Bonds
This resolution will allow us to call an S.I.D. bond because we received an
early payoff.
An individual Motion to approve each resolution is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 7. Resolution 4461 - Resolution of Intent and Notice of Public
Hearing for PUD - Waterford
On Monday we received a second preliminary draft of a PUD Agreement regarding
the Waterford Development. This resolution will establish a public hearing date of
April 19' for the consideration of the Zoning and PUD Agreement for the project.
E
Agenda Item No. 8. Ordinance 1305 - Zoning Text Amendment - Michael
Hanchett - 1' Reading
This amendment to the City Zoning Ordinance, requested by Michael Hanchett, will
include single-family residences, duplexes and multi -family residences as a permitted
use in the B4 Central Business district. This change will allow the current residents
to rehabilitate or rebuild their homes.
The Planning Staff and Planning Board recommended approval of this amendment.
A Motion to approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 1305 is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 9. Ordinance 1306 - Zoning Text Amendment - Deloris
Partnership Group - V Reading
This amendment, requested by the Deloris Partnership Group, to the Zoning
Ordinance will allow mini-storage/recreational vehicle storage as a conditionally
permitted use in the B-2 Central Business District. This change will require each
request to be considered on an individual basis according to its merits.
The Planning Staff and Planning Board recommended approval of the request. A
Motion to approve Ordinance No. 1306 is in order.
Agenda Item No. 10. Ordinance 1307 - Zoning Text Amendment - Lang Creek
Brewery - 1' Reading
Lang Creek Brewery has requested a Zoning Text Amendment to allow "micro
breweries/or brew -pubs" in connection with a restaurant or tavern as a permitted use
in the B-3 Community Business District.
11
The Planning Staff and Planning Commission recommended approval of the request.
A Motion to approve Ordinance 1307 is in order.
Agenda Item No. 11. Conditional Use Permit -DOS Apartments of Kalispell
This request by Bill Schottelkorb, Ivan O'Neil and Craig Denman of DOS Apartments
of Kalispell is for a Conditional Use Permit to permit the construction of a ten unit
attached garage structure. The garage will be used by the residents of the Birchwood
Apartment Complex. Since the apartment complex was approved by a Conditional
Use Permit, a request to expand the operation must be reviewed through the
Conditional Use process. The property is located on the northwest corner of the
intersection of 18' Street East and 5' Avenue East.
The Planning Staff and Planning Commission recommended approval of the
Conditional Use Permit subject to the six conditions identified on Attachment A
Report with No. 5 being deleted. A Motion to approve the Conditional Use Permit
with the conditions identified in Attachment A is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 12. Board of Adjustment Reappointment
Jerry Lyford's term on the Board of Adjustments expired in March, 1999. He has
sent a letter (included in your agenda packet) indicating a desire to serve another three
year term. A Motion to confirm the Mayor's recommendation is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 13. Confirmation of Bill Rice - Member at Large City -County
Planning Board
The Planning Commission has sent a letter requesting that Bill Rice be appointed to
7
the Planning Commission as the joint appointment of the City of Kalispell and
Flathead County. It is for a two year term. The appointment will not be effective
until both the City and County have acted positively on the appointment. A Motion
to approve the appointment is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 14. Authorization for Council Members to Attend the Local
Government Officials Workshop in Billings
The Local Government Center, through the Montana State University in Bozeman, is holding
its annual Workshop for Elected Municipal Officials April 21 through April 23 in Billings. A
