A public hearing has been scheduled before the Kalispell City -County Planning Board for June 8, 1999, at 6:00 PM in Kalispell City Council Chambers. A recommendation from the Planning Board will be forwarded to the Kalispell City Council for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION The applicants are proposing to amend the Kalispell Zoning Map by rezoning an approximate 0.79 acre site from an RA-1, Low Density Residential Apartment zoning district to B-3, a Community Business zoning district. A. Petitioner and Owners: Walle and Mary Lou Lindsay 822 Fifth Avenue West Kalispell, MT 59901 (406) 257-5609 B. Location and Legal Description of Property: This property is located on the west side of North Meridian Road approximately 150 feet north of Two Mile Drive. The property can be described as Lot 1 of Stubbs Addition No. 58 located in Section 12, Township 28 North, Range 22 West, P.M.M., Flathead County. C. Existing Zoning: Currently this property is zoned RA-1, a Low Density Residential Apartment zoning district which allows duplexes and single family homes as permitted uses and low density apartments as a conditional use. The minimum lot size requirement for this zoning district is 6,000 square feet plus 3,000 square feet for each additional unit beyond a duplex. D. Nature of Request and Proposed Zoning: The property owner is requesting that this property be rezoned from RA-1, Low Density Residential Apartment, to B-3, Community Business. The minimum lot size requirement for this zoning district is 7,000 square feet. The property owner would like to use this property for professional offices. E. Size: The area of the parcel proposed for rezoning contains approximately 0.79 of an acre. There is little potential for the further subdivision of this property since there is an existing building on the property that would be converted to a commercial use and the need for parking. F. Existing Land Use: Currently this property has a single family home on it that would be converted to an office use. G. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning: This property is in an area which has a mix of uses in close proximity. There are single family residences to the north, multi -family dwellings to the east and commercial development to the south and to the west. North: Commercial and office buildings, B-1 and B-2 zoning East: Flathead County Fairgrounds, P-1 zoning South: Commercial, bank and FWP, B-3 zoning West: Prestige Care and undeveloped, B-1 and RA-1 zoning H. General Land Use Character. The general land use character of this area is a mix of commercial and residential. North Meridian Road is in a stage of transition from the more traditional residential uses to a more commercial nature. I. Utilities and Public Services:._ Sewer: City of Kalispell Water: City of Kalispell Refuse: - City of Kalispell Electricity: Flathead Electric Co -Op Inc Telephone: CenturyTel Schools: School District #5 Fire: Kalispell Fire Department Police: City of Kalispell J. Relation to Zoning Requirements: With regard to lot size, the area proposed for rezoning meets the minimum lot size requirements of 7,000 square feet for the B-3 zoning district. Subdivision potential would be limited because of the relatively small size of the lot and the existing building on the site. Reaction of Nearby Property Owners 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, one inquiry had been received from the public regarding this proposal which was neutral in nature. EVALUATION BASED ON STATUTORY CRITERIA 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 2 itemized criteria described by 76-2-203,14.C.A. Does the requested zone comply with the Master Plan? The Kalispell City -County Master Plan map and more specifically the North Meridian Neighborhood Plan designates this property as commercial. The proposed rezoning meets goals of the master plan with regard to commercial expansion. Specifically, the Goal 6, Land Use, Section (a) which encourages adequate areas for a variety of business and commercial uses such as neighborhood oriented business and services, highway commercial oriented activities and general commercial uses. Goal 6, Section (b) encourages expansion of commercial areas based on compact development pattern designed to meet the needs of the intended service area. Goal 11, Energy, encourages infilling to take advantage of existing streets and services. The proposed zone change furthers several goals of the Kalispell City -County Master Plan relating to expansion of existing commercial areas. 2. Is the requested zone designed to lessen congestion in the streets? Access to this site is from North Meridian Road which is designated as a minor arterial in the master plan . This street is in relatively good condition although somewhat narrow for the amount of traffic it currently carries. The roadway is scheduled for upgrade within the next several years which would include four lanes in front of this property along with a pedestrian / bike path. Additional traffic which might be generated from the development of this property can be adequately accommodated by the road system in the area. 3. Will the requested zone secure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers? Very little risk from fire or other dangers exist on this site because of its good access and its proximity to urban services. Access to the site would be good in the case of an emergency. No significant impacts could be anticipated with regard to safety hazards, fire or other emergency situations. 4. Will the requested change promote the health and general welfare? By concentrating additional commercial development in an area which has community water and sewer, access onto an arterial street and is located in an area which is an established commercial area make this rezoning a reasonable and appropriate use of the property. Furthermore, the master plan designation for this property is commercial. It appears that the general welfare of the community would be advanced by rezoning this property commercial. S. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air? t Adequate light and air would be provided both by the low density allowed in the district and the setback requirements for structures. 6. Will the requested zone prevent the overcrowding of land or undue concentration of people? The minimum lot size for the proposed B-3 zoning on this property is 7,000 square feet. The potential development associated with this property would be limited only by the development standards associated with the B-3 zoning district that relate to lot coverage, the types of uses permitted under the zoning. There are limited if any environmental constraints associated with this property. Commercial development in this area is appropriate because of its location and the availability of urban serves. The rezoning of this land would not create an undue concentration of people or the overcrowding of land. 7. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation water, sewerage, schools, parks, and other public requirements? Existing transportation, police and fire protection as well as water and sewer are currently available to service this property and are adequate to accommodate any commercial use which might develop. Development potential of the property is good and adequate provision of services can be met on this property for commercial development. 8. Does the requested zone give consideration to the particular suitability of the property for particular uses? The master plan designates this property as commercial on the neighborhood plan map and there is significant other commercially zoned property to the north and to the south. The location of the property along a street which _is designated as an arterial and in an established commercial area make commercial development of this site a reasonable request. 9. Does the requested zone give reasonable consideration to the character of the district? The character of the area is commercial to the north and south and the fairgrounds to the east. Some residential lies to the east. This property will in effect act as a transition area between the two land use types. The location of this property along North Meridian Road as well as the fact that there is other commercial development in the area gives consistency to commercial development in the area. This rezoning gives reasonable consideration to the character of the area. 10. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings? Additional commercial development in the area would be consistent and 4 compatible with existingltde�Jbpi ent thereby minimizing potential conflicts and conserving the value of buildings in the area. 11. Will the requested zone encourage the most appropriate use of the land throughout the jurisdiction? Because this rezoning request complies with the commercial master plan map designation and because of its location on a busy street, commercial development seems the most appropriate use of this property. Furthermore, the rezoning is an expansion of commercial development in areas of established commercial area. It appears that this rezoning would encourage the most appropriate use of this property and the use of land in the planning jurisdiction. Staff recommends that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission adopt FRDO staff report #KZC-99-2 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the requested zone change from RA-1 to B-3 be granted.

During this regularly scheduled meeting, the board will hold public hearings or take public comments on the following agenda items and will make recommendations to the City Council or the Board of County Commissioners, who will take final action: To the Kalispell City Council: A request by George E. Schultz, aka Kal-Mont Dairy Farm, for annexation and initial zoning of B-1, Neighborhood Buffer District, for approximately 5.536 acres. The property proposed for annexation is located on the northeast comer of Whitefish Stage Road and West Evergreen Drive in the northeast part of Kalispell. Currently this property is in the Evergreen and Vicinity Zoning District and is zoned County B-1, a Neighborhood Professional Business zoning district. The property can be described as a portion of Assessor's Tract 5 located in Section 32, Township 29 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana, and as further described on attached Exhibit A. 2. A request by David R and Deanne Berger for annexation and initial zoning of R-4, Two Family Residential, on approximately 0.62 acres. The property is located north of Belmar Subdiv-sion and adjoins the northern boundaries of Lots 8, 9, and 10 of Belmar Addition Subdivision. This property can be described as a portion of Assessor's Tract 14CA located in Section 19, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.,M, Flathead County, Montana, and as further described in Exhibit B. 3. A request by Walle and Mary Lou Lindsay for a zone change from RA-1, a Low Density Residential Apartment, zoning district to B-3, a Community Business, zoning district which allows a variety of commercial uses. The area proposed for rezoning contains approximately 0.79 of an acre and is located at 580 North Meridian Road, on the east side of North Meridian Road and north of Two Mile Drive approximately 150 feet. The property can be described as Lot 1 of Stubbs Addition 58 located in Section 12, Township 28 North, Range 22 West, P.M.,M, Flathead County, Montana and as further described in attached Exhibit C. 4. A request by The Nurturing Center for a text amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance, Sections 27.26.050(15), Parking Standards for Day Care Facilities, and Section 26.37.010(69), Definition of Day Care. As proposed, the standards would require one space per teacher/employee and delete the requirement for one off-street load space per six students. And would require one space per teacher/employee plus one off-street load space per six students for Day Care Centers and Nursery Schools. Additionally, the definition of Day Care Facilities would be clarified to denote a difference between a Family Day Care Home, Group Day Care Home and a Day Care Center and to clarify the term "regular basis." This amendment would potentially effect all areas within the City of Kalispell which allow day care facilities as either a permitted or conditionally permitted use. 5. A request by the City of Kalispell for various amendments to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance which are intended to be `housekeeping' changes that would not typically be controversial issues, but that would address several on -going probiems within the City's zoning jurisdiction. Those changes would include but would not be limited to the following issues: increasing the allowable height in the `R" zonings from the current 15 foot limit to 18 feet provided they are single story construction; add banks, savings and loan and finance companies as a permitted use in the B-2, General Business district, change casinos from a conditional use to a permitted use in all districts which allow casinos and amend the definition of casino; allow single archways serving as pedestrian entrances not exceeding nine feet tall five feet wide and four feet deep in the required setback areas; reduce the required side comer setbacks from 15 feet to 10 feet on lots of 50 feet or less; to allow temporary events such as car shows, boat shows, carnival, concerts, etc. in the "B", '°r or "P" zones as a permitted uses provided the event does not occur more than seven days in a three month period; a provision to allow the issuance of an administrative conditional use permit which is a minor amendment to an misting conditional use permit; amend the definition of professional office. This amendments could potentially effect several areas of the zoning jurisdiction where these uses are allowed. 6. A request by Robert Peters for preliminary plat approval of a ten lot residential subdivision located west of Grandview Drive and south of Commons Way in the north part of Kalispell. The property is zoned RA-1, a Low Density Residential Apartment, zoning district which has a minimum lot size requirement of 6,000 square feet for single family homes plus an additional 3,000 square feet per unit beyond a duplex.
