STAFF REPORT #KPP-05-6
MAY 3, 2005
A report to the Kalispell City Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council regarding
a request for an amended preliminary plat approval by increasing the number of
residential lots from 35 to 39 on property zoned R-3, Urban Single Family Residential.
A public hearing on this proposal has been scheduled before the planning board for
May 10, 2005 in the Kalispell City Council Chambers. The planning board will
forward a recommendation to the city council for final action.
BACKGROUND: Cottonwood Park Subdivision was approved by the Kalispell City
Council at their regular meeting of April 4, 2005 for 35 single family lots. The
developer would like to convert four single family lots to two unit townhouse lots
thereby creating eight townhouse lots and increasing the number of lots in the
subdivision. from 35 to 39. An application for a conditional use permit requesting the
townhouse units has been filed concurrently with the amended preliminary plat. Two
unit townhouses are listed as a conditionally permitted use in the R-3 zoning district
and are subject to density limitations of the subdivision.

B. Nature of Application: This is a request for an amended preliminary plat for
Cottonwood Park Subdivision which would increase the number of lots in the
subdivision from 35 to 39 by converting four single family lots to four two unit
townhouse lots thereby creating a subdivision that has 31 single family lots and
eight townhouse lots for a total of 39 lots. The subdivision contains approximately
0 acres and is located at the northwest corner of Three Mile Drive and Stillwater
Road. The property was recently annexed into the city of Kalispell and given a
zoning designation of R-3, an Urban Single Family Residential zoning district. At
the same time city council approved the preliminary plat for Cottonwood Park
Subdivision. Along with this application for an amended preliminary plat an
application for a conditional use permit for the creation of the townhouse lots has
been submitted as required under the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance.
Townhouses are allowed in the R-3, Urban Single Family Residential, zoning
district as a conditionally permitted use. The townhouse provision in the zoning
ordinance falls under Section 27.22.130, Sublots, and states the following:
"Dwellings may be constructed on sublots within any zoning district which
permits n:aulti-family dwellings, cluster housing, or townhouse dwellings.
Sublots are subject to subdivision approval and, if required, a conditional use
(1). Site Requirements.
(a). Sublots are eligible only within a recorded subdivision lot whose
area is at least 6,000 square feet.
(b). The allowable number of sublots shall be determined by dividing
the gross area of the platted lot by the density limits of the
applicable zoning district_ In the event that the design utilizes
common ownership of common areas, the area of the lot(s) plus
the comrn.on area shall be divided by the density limits of the
applicable zoning district to determine the allowable number of
Sublots. In no case, however, shall a sublot have an area less than
2,000 square feet nor more than one dwelling unit thereon.
(2). Building Limitations. The yard, height, and area requirements of the
district shall apply to the entire area of the platted lot. Common
ownership of the yards is permitted. Shared interior property
boundary(ies) is anticipated to be developed at a zero lot line.
Density is determined based on dividing the minimum lot size requirements of the
district in the R-3 zone of 7,000 square feet into the net area to be considered.
The entire area included within the application is 7.68 acres that includes the lots
and park but excludes the road. Based on this gross area, this would allow the
creation of a totem of 40ruts. 11le prclulxi.ia,.y PidL way 1111uuUy approvcu zuI 00
single family lots this would increase the total number of lots by four or allow 31
single family lots and eight townhouse lots for a total of 39 lots.
There would be no change to the new internal roadway that would be developed
with Cottonwood Park Subdivision that creates two new accesses onto Stillwater
Road and an internal access to the north that will connect with Blue Heron
Estates subdivision's internal roadway. There is an approximately 1.5 acre area
within the site that is located in the 100 year floodplain delineated with a new
flood study which is a part of the Blue Heron Estates development. The floodplain
will generally be part of a park area that lies along the west side of the property.
There is an existing house on the property that will be retained once the
subdivision is developed. The existing outbuildings and fencing will be removed.
The subdivision will likely be developed in a single phase.
C. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property proposed for
subdivision lies at the northwest corner of Three Mile Drive and Stillwater Road or
approximately one mile from its intersection with North Meridian Road. The
property can be described as Assessor's Tract 4C located in Section 2, Township
28 North, Range 22 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.

%T. General Land use Char cter: he area can be described as an area In transition
with urban sized lots in various stages of development where public utilities have
been extended or are available. New subdivisions in the area include Empire
Estates, a mix of single family and two unit townhouses, Blue Heron Estates,
primarily single family homes, and Bowser Creek Estates, a mix of single family
and two unit townhouses. This is an area of rapid transition from a suburban and
rural environment to an urban environment because of the availability of utilites.
H. Zoning: The property was annexed concurrently with review of the preliminary
plat and the developers requested an assignment of R-3, an Urban Residential
zoning district that is intended primarily for single-family homes. This district
has a minimum lot size requirement of 7,000 square feet and a minimum lot
width of 60 feet. The Kalispell Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use
permit for the creation of sublots in the R-3, Urban Single Family Residential,
zoning district subject to specific criteria used to calculate the allowable density
within the subdivision. A conditional use permit application for the creation of
the townhouse lots has been filed concurrently with the application, for the
amended preliminary plat for Cottonwood Park Subdivision.

COMMENTS FROM THE SITE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE
This matter carve before the Site Development Review Committee on April 21, 2005
and April 28, 2005, The committee agreed that the proposed amendments were
insignificant with the creation of the additional four lots. There was some further
discussion regarding the development of the park area in conjunction. with Blue
Heron Estates Phase 3 to the north and the amended plat of Blue Heron Estates
Phase 2 to the west. The park areas are in the floodplain and could provide a good
amenity when they are developed. There was discussion of developing a park plat for
the area and development of the park prior to the submittal of the final plats for these
subdivision.
REVIEW AND FINDINGS OF FACT
This application is reviewed as a major subdivision in accordance with statutory
criteria and the Kalispell City Subdivision Regulations.
A. Effects on Health and Safety:

Department. The property can be considered to be a low risk of fire because
the subdivision and homes within the subdivision would be constructed in
accordance with the Uniform Fire Code and have access which meets City
standards. All of the lots will abut a street that has been constructed to City
standards. The property does not have steep slopes or woody fuels. Hydrants
will be required to be placed in compliance with the requirements of the
Uniform Fire Code and approved by the fare chief. The fire access and
suppression system should be installed and approved by the fire department
prior to final plat approval because of potential problems with combustible
construction taking place prior to adequate fire access to the site being
developed. There was some concern by the fire department and public works
department that the waterline may need to be looped in order to gain adequate
water pressure to meet the needed fire flows for the hydrants.
Flooding: According to FIRM Panel #1805D dated 9/30/92 there are some
areas of the 100 year floodplain within the site that have also been indicated on
the preliminary plat. These floodplain areas have been made part of a detailed
study that was part of the Blue Heron Estates development. The base flood
elevation in this area has been established at 2970.5 feet and is indicated on
the preliminary plat. The Kalispell Subdivision Regulations prohibit the
creation of new lots within the subdivision in the 100 year floodplain. In an
attempt to avoid construction in the floodplain area, a 40 by 40 foot building
area has been noted on the plat to show areas outside the floodplain where a
building site can be located.
M
Access: Access to the subdivision would create two new accesses onto
Stillwater Road with an internal loop roadway that runs east and west. A north
south road that will connect to Slue Heron Estates to the north will also be
developed that will be approximately 45 feet long. All of the road will be
developed at the same time since it is unlikely that this subdivision will be
phased because of its limited scale. There is lack of pedestrian access along
Stillwater Road and Three Mile Drive which should be addressed even on an
incremental basis as has been done with Blue Heron Estates to the north and
to the west of this site. The bike and pedestrian paths can be coordinated
through the public works department, MDQT, parks and recreation department
and Flathead County. They should include an approximately 20 foot buffer
that incorporates a bike and pedestrian trail and buffering in the form of a
landscape berm and or landscaping.
E. Effects on Wildlife and Wildlife Habitat: This property is generally level with
a gentle slope and was used for grazing purposes. There may be some
migratory birds and occasional deer may visit the site, however, this area does
not provide significant habitat for wildlife-
C. Effects on the Natural Environment:
Surface and g-roundwater. This subdivision will be served by public crater and
sewer thereby minimizing any potential impacts to the groundwater. No
surface water is in close enough proximity to the site to create concerns with
regard to this development. The 100 year floodplain area on the property is
part of the Spring Creek drainage but is typically dry. Any potential impacts to
Spring Creek from this subdivision would be insignificant in nature.
Drainage: This site is relatively level and does not pose any unusual
challenges to site drainage. Curbs and gutters will be installed and a storm
drain management plan will have to be developed to address the runoff from
the site. There is no City storm drain system in the immediate area and storm
water will have to be managed using on -site retention methods as part of the
stormwater management plan. There is an area of 100 year floodplain that is
designated as a park area that can assist in providing adequate drainage on the
site in addition to other stormwater management techniques. The drainage
plan will have to comply with the City of Kalispell's standards and State
standards and will be required to be designed by a professional engineer.
D. Effects on Local Services:
Water: Water service to the subdivision would be provided by the City of
Kalispell and extended from a water main that lies to the south or to the east of
this subdivision along 'Three Mile Drive or Stillwater Road. The water main
would be extended from, its current location within the public right-of-way to
the site and should not require any easements through private property. The
water main would be extended through the subdivision serving each of the
phases as they develop and eventually be extended further to the west along
Three Mile Drive and connected. It is uncertain at this juncture when the
water loop connection for the subdivision may be required since it will depend
on the fire flows that can be obtained and whether they will meet the
S
requirements of the Uniform Fire Code. The water system for the subdivision
will be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department and
the Kalispell Fire Department as part of the development of the subdivision and
it phases. There is adequate capacity within the City's water system to
accommodate this development.
Sewer: Sewer service will be provided by the City of Kalispell with an extension
of existing sewer mains from their existing location. within Three Mile Drive
right-of-way. No easements for the sewer would need to be acquired from
private property owners. Design and construction of the mains will be reviewed
and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department. There is adequate
capacity within the sewage treatment plan to accommodate this development.
Roads: Traffic projections for this subdivision are estimated to be
approximately 310 to 390 additional vehicle trips per day based on the estimate
of 8 to 10 vehicle trips per residence per day in the area onto Stillwater Road
and Three Mile Drive. The subdivision roads will be constructed to City
standards and would include curb, gutter, sidewalks and landscape boulevards
within the subdivision.. The internal subdivision roads will access onto
Stillwater Road. This connection between the property that lies to the north
and this subdivision will provide an additional connection and alternate route
for traffic within the subdivision. Conversations with the Blue Heron Estates
developer have been productive and they have agreed to this connection as part
of the Phase 3 development of Blue Heron Estates. Once the roads have been
constructed and accepted by the City of Kalispell, they will be dedicated to the
City and maintained.
There may be some limited impacts to Three Mile Drive as a result of this
subdivision and Stillwater Road to the east. Three Mile Drive is a paved, two
lane State secondary roadway that is in fair condition. In 1997 the daily
average vehicle trips east of Stillwater Road was 3,064. There will be a
moderate increase in traffic on Three Mile Drive with the commensurate
impacts. At some point, consideration will need to be given to the upgrading
and widening of Three Mile Drive as development continues to occur in the
area. Typically this would be the responsibility of the State with regard to
design., funding and construction. Stillwater Road is a County road that will
continue to be increasingly important as a through connection as development
in this area continues, particularly if a new high school is built to the north of
this property on the State school section property. Staff recommends placing a
waiver to protest the creation of a special improvement district for the upgrade
of roads in the area to City standards that may be impacted by this
development consistent with past City policy and practices.
Schools: This development is within the boundaries of the West Valley School
District. The district obtained a bond several years ago to complete an addition
on the school. That space is now nearly fully occupied. The district will
accommodate any new students into the district. It can be anticipated that
approximately 20 additional school age children may be generated from this
subdivision at full build out. This would have a potentially moderate impact on
the district, particularly on a cumulative level with other development pending
6
within the district - both urban and rural.
Parks and. Open Space: The state and local subdivision regulations have
parkland / open space requirements for major subdivisions in the amount of
11 percent or one -ninth of the area proposed for the development. The
developer has stated they would like to utilize the park areas indicated on the
plat to satisfy this requirement. With approximately 6.620 acres of the
property in lots, parkland requirements would be 0.73 of an acre.
Approximately 1.5 acres of the property lies in the 100 year floodplain most of
which is not suitable for development and is designated as a park area. This
area comprises approximately 1.09 acres and would be either owned and
maintained by the homeowners or taken over by the City and incorporated into
a larger park that would be developed and coordinated with the Blue Heron
Estates park area_ This designation is acceptable under the subdivision
regulations, but some type of a provision needs to be made to provide some
amenities to the site such as irrigation, play equipment and pedestrian access.
Additionally, some type of maintenance agreement needs to be in place for the
maintenance of the park area if it remains private that can be incorporated into
the covenants on the property or as a stand alone agreement.
Police: This subdivision would be in the jurisdiction of the City of Kalispell
Police Department. The department can adequately provide service to this
subdivision, however the cumulative impacts of growth within the city further
strains the departments ability to continue to provide the high level of service
the department is committed to.

Department, and the subdivision will need to meet the requirements of the
Uniform Fire Code. The fire department will review and approve the number
and location of hydrants within the subdivision as well as fire flows and access.
Although fire risk is low because of good access and fairly level terrain, the fire
department is recommending that access to the subdivision and the hydrants
are in place prior to final plat approval and / or use of combustible materials in
construction.
Solid Waste: Solid waste will be handled 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 subdivision.
Medical Services: Ambulance service is available from the fire department and
ALERT helicopter service. Kalispell Regional Hospital is close, less than two
miles from the site.
E. Effects on Agriculture and agricultural water user facilities: The site has
been traditionally used for limited grazing purposes, but is more efficiently and
effectively used for urban residential development_ Its location within the
planning jurisdiction and its proximity to urban services makes this property
prime for the type of development being proposed. There will be relatively little
impact on agricultural uses within the Valley and no impact on agricultural,
water user facilities since this property will be served by a public water system.
7
F. Relation to the Kalispell Growth Policy: This property is in the Kalispell
Growth Policy's potential utility service area and is anticipated for this type of
urban scale development at the time of connection, to City utilities. The future
land use map for the area indicates this area is anticipated to be developed as
Suburban Residential. Areas designated as Suburban Residential are
anticipated to be served by community water and sewer and have good access
to services and public facilities. This land use designation anticipates a density
of four dwelling units per acre and the requested R--3, a single-family
residential district is in substantial compliance with this land use goal. The
overall density of the site can be calculated to be at a density of approximately
3.5 dwelling units per acre, and this subdivision would be in compliance with
the Kalispell Growth Policy and its goals and policies.
G. Compliance with Zoning: This property has been proposed to be zoned R--3,
an Urban. Single Family Residential district that is intended for single-family
residential development and has a minimum lot size requirement of 7,000
square feet and a minimum lot width of 60 feet. All of the lots within the
subdivision comply with the minimum lot size and minimum lot width
requirements of the R-3 zoning district.
H. Compliance with the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations: This subdivision
complies with the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations and no variances have
been requested.
