FROM: Sean Conrad, senior Planner
Janes I. Patrick, City Manager
SUBJECT: Kalispell National Investment Company request for amendments
to the Spring Prairie Planned Unit Development and prelimm' a.ry
plat approval for the first phase of the Bloomstone subdivision.
-ME'T ING : April. 21, ZOOS
BACKGROUND: The Kalispell City Planning Board met on April s, 2008 and held a
public hearing to consider a request from, the Kalispell National Investment Company
to amend the existing R-4/PUD zoning on an 85.2 acre property and develop the
property as a residential subdivision called Bloomstone. The overall project will be
developed in 5 phases providing a total of 59 dwelling units. The developer is also
requesting preliminary plat approval for phases 1A and 1B of the project. Phase 1A
consists of 8-8 plea apartment units, 74 single family residential lots, and 10
townhouse lets. Phase 1B consists of 37 single family residential. lots. The residential
lots will range in size from 2,400 square feet (townhouse lot) to 8,000 square feet.
The 85.2 acre site can be legally described as parcel 3 of certificate of survey 1721
located in the SW 14 of section 3, Township 29 North, Range 22 West. The property
is located immediately west of the Kids sports complex on the north side of Four Mile
Drive, approximately 1!2 mile merest of the intersection of Four Mile Drive and Highway
93 North.
Sean Conrad of the Kalispell Planning Department presented staff reports #PU -07-
and KPP-07-14 evaluating the propose. project. Staff recommended the planning
board recommend approving a majority of the requested amendments to the em sting
Planned Unit Development and the preliminary plat for the first phase of the
subdivision subject to the conditions listed in the staff report.
]wring the public hearing portion of the meeting the developer and his consultant
team spoke in favor of the proposed project, Two members of the public also spore on
the project. Their concerns were the interactions between the project and Kids Sports
complex, acquiring adjacent lands for park development and possibly increasing the
open space and park areas within the subdivision.
After the public bearing was closed the planning board discussed the proposed
project. Two main concerns brought up during the planning boards discussion were
grading along Four Mile Drive and limiting alley access onto Treeline load.
As part of the overall project the developer intends to loner the southern portion ofthe
project site. This would in -turn rewire Four Mile Drive to be lowered approximately
12 feet. The planning board was concerned with the property owner south of Four
Mile Drive from gaining reasonable access to Four Mile Drive when the road is lowered
in conjunction with the Bloomstone project. Therefore, the planning board
recommended amending condition number 7 of the PUD regarding the grading of the
site and added that "the subdivision and roadway grading presented shall be designed
and constructed in a manner that would allover future connection to the properties
south of Four Mile Drive be feasible." This amendment passed on a vote of 3 to 2.
The second issue discussed by the planning board was limiting traffic access onto are
alley serving 22 townhouse lots in phase 1 . The alley is proposed to have an
entrance/exit onto Treeline Road between Wa.terleaf Lane in phase IB and Nightshade
Drive in phase 2. Treeline Road will be designed to function as a collector roadway
and, therefore, the number of access points onto Treeline Road, whether a street or an
alley, should be limited. The Public Works Department had recommended that the
alley serving the tov nl ouse lots in phase IB include removable bollards at the alleys
intersection with Treeline Road to prohibit dairy traffic movements ments from entering or
exiting at this location. By using the removable ]pollards the alley could still be used
by emergency vehicles if neecssary.
Before the planning board bearing the developer requested clanging the language in
the condition to remove the requirement for bollards and instead allow him to cone up
with a. landscaping and curbing plan that would accomplish the sane access
restrictions as the bollards. The developer requested this because he felt that bollards
could not aesthetically tie into the surrounding ncigh or ood he is creating.
During the planning board discussion on the issue some members of the board had
concerns withblocking the alley off for strictly emergency vehicles. Concerns were
also raised about garbage collection and snow storage. However, a majority of the
planning board members ers agreed with the Public Works Department's recommendation
about restricting access from the alley onto Treeline road. A motion to remove
recommended condition number 35 failed on a vote of 4 to 1.
After discussing the proposed project the planning board unanimously recommended
approval of both the planned unit development and preliminary plat requests subject
to staff's conditions as amended.
The council held a work session on the proposed project after its regular meeting of
April 7, 2008. During the work session staff provided a brief presentation on the
project and answered council mem er's questions. Those questions were generally
directed towards parkland, street locations, and hypes of units proposed within the
development. The developer also provided a. detailed presentation to the council. After
the developers presentation there were no additional questions for the developer.
R COMMMNDATIO : A motion to approve the resolution to amend the existing
Planed Unit Development zoning on the property with 25 conditions as recommended
by the planning board and approve the preliminary plat request subject to the 2
conditions as recommended by the planning board would be in order.
FISCAL "FELTS: Positive impacts once filly developed.
AL RA. IES: As suggested by the City Council.

Re: Kalispell National Investment Company request for amendments to the spring
Prairie Planned Emit Development and preliminary plat approval for the first
phase of the Bloomstone subdivision
DearJim:
The Kalispell. City Tanning Board met on April 8, 2008 and held a public hearing to
co .s *der a request from the Kalispell National Investment Company to amend the
existing -4 1 UD zoning on an 85.2 acre property and develop the property as a.
residential subdivision ision called. Bloornstone. The overall project will be developed in 5
phases providing a total of 569 dwelling units. The developer is also requesting
prolinfinar y plat approval for phases 1A and 1B of the project. phase 1A consists of -
8 plea apartment units, 74 single family residential lots, and 10 townhouse lots.
Phase 1 B consists of 37 single family residential. lots. The residential lots will range in
size from 2,400 square feet (townhouse lot) to 8,000 square feet.
The 85.2 acre site can be legally described as parcel 3 ofCertificate of Survey 17217
located in the SW 1/4 of Section 36, Township 29 North, Range 22 Nest. The property
is located immediately west of the Kids Sports complex on the north side of Four Mile
Drive, approximately 1/ mile west of the intersection of Four Mile Drive and Highway
93 North.
Sean Conrad of the Kalispell planning Department presented staff reports KPUD-07-
and KP- 7-1.4 evaluating the proposed project. Staff recommended the planning
board recommend approving a majority of the requested amendments to the existing
Planned Unit Development and the preliminary plat for the first phase of the
subdivision subject to the conditions listed in the staff report.
During the public hearing portion of the meting the developer and his consultant
team spoke in favor of the proposed project. Two members of the public also spoke on
the project. 'Their concerns were the interactions between the project and Kids sports
complex, acquiring adjacent lands for park development and possibly increasing the
open space and park areas within the subdivision.
After the public hearing was closed the planning board discussed the proposed
project. Two main concerns brought up during the planning boards discussion were
grading along Four Mile Drive and limiting alley access onto Treeline load.
As part of the overall project the developer intends to lower the southern, portion of the
project site. This would in -turn require Four Mile Drive to be lowered approximately
12 feet.. The planning board was concerned with the propel owner south of Pour
Mile Drive gaining reasonable access to Four Mile Drive when the road is lowered in
conjunction with the Bloomstone project. Therefore, the planning board
recommended a rending condition, number 7 of the PUD regarding the grading of the
site and added that "the subdivision and roadway grading presented shall be designed
and constructed in a manner that would alloy future connection to the properties
south of Four Mile Drive be feasible." This amendment passed on a vote of 3 to 2.
The second issue discussed by the planning board was limiting traffic access onto an
alley serving 22 townhouse lots in phase 1B. The alley is proposed to have an
entrance exit onto Treeline Road between vaterleaf Lane in phase 1B and. Nightshade
Drive in phase 2. Treeline Road will be designed to function as a collector roadway
and, therefore, the number of access points onto Treeline load, whether a street or an
alley, should be limited. The Public Works Department had recommended that the
alley serving the townhouse lots in phase 1B include removable bollards at the alleys
intersection with Treeline road to prohibit dairy traffic movements from entering or
exiting at this location. By using the removable bollards the alley could still be used
by emergency vehicles if necessary.
Before the planning board hearing the developer requested changing the language in
the condition to remove the requirement for bollards and instead allover him to come up
with a landscaping and curbing plan that would accomplish the sane access
restrictions as the bollards. The developer requested this because he felt that bollards
would not aesthetically tie into the surrounding neighborhood he is creating.
During the planning board discussion on the issue some members of the board had
concernsv t i blocking the alley off for strictly emer-genc vehicles. Concerns rere
also praised about garbage collection and snowy storage. However a majority of the
planning board members agreed with the Public Works Department's recommendation
about restricting access from the alley onto Treeline road. A motion to remove
recommended condition number 35 failed on a vote of 4 to 1.
After discussing the proposed project the planning board unanimously recommended
approval of both the planned unit development and prel.irninary plat requests subject
to staffs conditions as amended.
Please schedule this matter for the April 21, 2008 regular city council meeting. You
may contact this hoard or Sean Conrad at the Kalispell Panning Department if you
have any questions regarding this natter.
Sincerely,
