Re: Final Plat for Southfield Park Subdivision
Dear Glen:
Our office has received the application for final plat approval of Southfield Park
Subdivision (Haven Field), a five lot commercial subdivision located on the southeast
corner of Highway 93 South and 18th Street East in Kalispell. This property was
purchased from the City of Kalispell in the spring of 1997 as part of the City's urban
renewal plan for the area for the purpose of redevelopment of the site from ballfields
to a quality commercial complex. The City of Kalispell and current property owner,
Richard A. Dasen, executed a development agreement for certain improvements to the
property totaling approximately six million dollars to be in place by January 1, 1999.
If the improvements are not in place, the property owner would pay ad valorem taxes
in the amount of $124,000 or the difference between tax revenue generated by the
improvements and that amount.
Preliminary plat approval for this subdivision was granted by the Kalispell City
Council on June 15, 1998 subject to nine conditions. This property is zoned B-2,
General Business, which anticipates a variety of retail, office and other commercial
uses such as those intended for these parcels.
The following is a list of the conditions of approval and a discussion of how they have
been met.

At this time the Kalispell Fire Department cannot determine the
number or placement of fire hydrants at Southfield Park. We will
have to address this issue at the time building permits are to be
issued. The size and type of building will determine the number
and placement of fire hydrants. We do agree to the interior road
design and placement of one hydrant in the middle of the
subdivision at this time.
