Wilson, Senior Planner James H. Patrick, City Manager SUBJECT Public Hearing on the Preliminary Plat Approval of the Amended Plat of Gateway West Addn. #34. MEETING DATE: December 6, 2004 BACKGROUND: The Kalispell City Planning Board held a public hearing at their regular meeting of January 15, 2002 regarding this request for preliminary plat approval of an eight lot commercial subdivision on approximately 11.31 acres located south of Two Mile Drive and west of the Gateway West Mall. This subdivision has languished for nearly three years because, in part, of the developer's interest in partnering with the City of Kalispell in the reconstruction of Financial Drive to City standards. The upgrade of Finance Drive is a significant off - site improvement related to the subdivision. The developers requested a variance to the City standards as part of their initial subdivision application. The planning board recommended denial of the variance, but prior to this matter coming before the city council the developer requested council action be postponed. At the November 15, 2004 work session following the regular city council meeting, Susan Moyer with the Community Development Department presented a proposal to the council to assist in the reconstruction of Financial Drive to City standards. Since this property is in the West Side Urban Renewal District and the upgrade of the roadway would benefit the overall development of the commercial properties in the immediate area, the staff recommended supporting this project. The zoning for this property is B-3, a Community Business District. This district has a 7,000 square feet minimum lot size requirement and the minimum lot width is 70 feet_ All of the lots within the proposed subdivision exceed the minimum lot size requirement of the district The property is currently undeveloped with the exception of an existing office building known as the Crop -Hail Building located on proposed Lot 8 which contains 2.85 acres. The property would be subdivided to create seven additional lots that will be accessed by a new internal roadway. Subdivision access will be from an existing roadway off of Two Mile Drive, Financial Drive. Currently this functions as a private driveway which serves this property and the Gateway West Mall. Providing Community Planning :assistance To: • City of Kalispell • City of Columbia Falls • City of Whitefish • Preliminary Plat for Amended Plat of Gateway West Addn, 434 November 30, 2004 Page Z Because of the length of time between the planning board consideration and city council action for this subdivision, the city attorney has recommended that the city council hold a public hearing regarding this proposal rather than taking the subdivision before the planning board again. Although this is a bit irregular, it is the intent to satisfy the public notice requirement while allowing a pragmatic approach to further review and consideration of the proposed subdivision and associated improvements. The developer has provided an updated list of adjoining land owners which will be used to notice the public hearing before the council which has been scheduled for December 20, 2004. At the December 20, 2004 regular meeting, the city council Will be asked to consider any additional public testimony, the planning board recommendation regarding the preliminary plat approval, the staff report and the upgrade of Financial Drive to City standards. RECOMMENDATION: A motion to adopt the resolution of intention to hold a public hearing on the proposed preliminary plat. FISCAL EFFECTS: ALTERNATIVES: Narda A. Wilson Senior Planner Minor positive impacts once developed. As suggested by the city council.
