Currently there is a single family residence occupied by the applicants / owners of the property that will be removed from the property when the subdivision is developed. The Kalispell City Planning Board met on August 10, 2004 and held a public hearing to consider this proposal. At the public hearing, the applicant and consultant explained the project and their goals in developing the site. There were two people from the neighborhood who spoke in favor and two people from the neighborhood who spoke in opposition to the proposal. Opposition related to traffic and density. The planning board discussed the request and issues related to the zoning and development in the area. The planning board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the preliminary plat subject to conditions. RECOMMENDATION: A motion to approve the preliminary plat subject to the recommended conditions would be in order. FISCAL EFFECTS: Minor positive impacts once fully developed.

STILLWATER BLUFFS SUBDIVISION PRELIMINARY PLAT TRI-CITY PLANNING OFFICE STAFF REPORT #KPP-04-10 AUGUST 2, 2004 A report to the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council regarding a request for preliminary plat approval of a 32 lot residential subdivision. A public hearing on this proposal has been scheduled before the planning board for August 10, 2004 in the Kalispell City Council Chambers. The planning board will forward a recommendation to the city council for final action. BACKGROUND_ This preliminary plat has been filed concurrently with a petition to annex to the city of Kalispell proposing annexation and initial zoning classifications of R-3, Urban Single Family Residential, and R-4, Two -Family Residential. The property is in the County zoning jurisdiction and is zoned County R-1, a Suburban Residential district. A. Petitioner and Owners: Larry and Sandy Heusher 545 Country Way South Kalispell, MT 59901 (406) 752-3085 Technical Assistance: Montana Mapping Associates 115 Valley View Drive Kalispell, MT 59901 B. Nature of Application: This is a request for preliminary plat approval of a 32 lot residential subdivision on approximately 12.45 acres in northeast Kalispell. The property owners are proposing the creation of 22 sublots for two unit townhouses and ten lots for single family dwellings. One of the lots at the west end of the site may simply be used as a storage shed for equipment for common area maintenance. A request for annexation and an initial zoning has been filed concurrently with the preliminary plat with a proposed zoning designation of R-3, Urban Single Family Residential, on the area proposed for the single family dwellings and an initial zoning designation of R-4, Two Family Residential, in the area proposed for the two unit townhouses. Access to the subdivision would be from Country Way, a County road that lies to the north of this property approximately 300 feet. Whitefish Stage Road lies to the east of Country Way and is approximately one -quarter mile from this property. The property owners will extend Country Way South which fronts their property on the west. Access to the subdivision will be provided from this new extension of Country Way South to a loop road within the property. A homeowners park is planned at the northwest corner of the site that has about one and a half acres of usable space. This property is bordered on the west by Stillwater River and the slope area between the lots and the river are designated as common area to avoid disturbance to the slope and ensure that it be maintained in a natural state. It is anticipated that the subdivision would be developed in a single phase. Lots in the subdivision range in size from 11,342 square feet to 6,021 square feet in size. A homeowners association would be created to ensure the maintenance of common 1 areas and the park. C. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property proposed for annexation lies on the east side of Country Way South between Granrud Lane and Country Way. The property address is 545 Country Way South and can be described as Assessor's Tracts 5H and 5HA in Section 31, Township 29 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana. Total Area: Area in Lots: Minimum lot size: Maximum lot size Roadways: Common Areas: 12.45 acres 5.54 acres 6,013 square feet (sublot) 11,529 square feet (SFR lot) 2.79 acres 4.12 acres E. Existing Land Use: This property is currently being used for a single-family dwelling which is occupied by the applicants. F. Adjacent Land Uses: The area is characterized by primarily single-family dwellings on rural residential lots except for the recently developed property to the east that has access to public water and sewer, North: Single-family homes in Country Village No. 2, County R- I zoning East: Single-family hones in Glacier Commons, City RA -I zoning South: Single --family homes, County R-1 zoning West: Stillwater River, County SAG-10 zoning G. Existing zoning: The property is currently in the County zoning jurisdiction and is zoned R-1, Suburban Residential. The suburban residential district is intended to serve as an area where limited density would be encouraged such as in the 100- year floodplain or on steep slopes or in areas where estate type development is anticipated and public water and sewer services are not available. H. Zoning: This property is being proposed for annexation to the city concurrently with the filing of the preliminary plat. The property owners are proposing an initial zoning designation of R-3 in the area designated for the single family dwellings and R-4 in the area intended for the two -unit townhouses. The R-3 zoning district has a minimum lot size requirement of 7,000 square feet and the R-4 zoning district has a minimum lot size requirement of 6,000 square feet. The R-3 district is generally single family while the R-4 is intended for single family and duplex development. I. Utilities: This property would receive full City services to the subdivision as provided under the City of Kalispell's Extension of Services Plan. Water: Evergreen Water District Sewer: City of Kalispell Solid Waste: City of Kalispell or private hauler 2 Gas: Montana Power Company Electricity: Flathead Electric Coop (underground) Telephone: CenturyTel (underground) Fire: City of Kalispell Schools: School District #5, Kalispell, Edgerton School Police: City of Kalispell This application is reviewed as a major subdivision in accordance with statutory criteria and the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations. A. :Effects on Health and Safety: Fire: This subdivision would be annexed into the service area of the Kalispell Fire Department. The property can be considered to be low risk of fare because the subdivision and homes within the subdivision would be constructed in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code. All of the lots will abut a street constructed to City standards. Hydrants will be placed in compliance with the requirements of the Uniform Fire Code and the fire access and suppression system reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Fire Chief. Two accesses in and out of the subdivision are proposed to be developed in the subdivision from Country Way South. Access to the subdivision would be gained from Whitefish Stage Road to Country Way, then Country Way to Country Way South. Fire access and the suppression system should be installed and approved by the fire department prior to combustible construction taking place on the site and prior to final plat approval. It appears as though a secondary emergency access to the south may be required for the subdivision. Potentially this may be able to be obtained through the private roadway to the south of this property. Kalispell Subdivision Regulations, Section 3.08 (D) states "Two or more vehicular accesses or separate multi ingress -egress into a subdivision are required when one or more of the following considerations are present" (2) states "Where a primary access road is 1,000 to 1,500 feet long and it serves initially or in the future at least 20 residential lots or 40 residential dwelling units" There will be a total of 30 residential dwelling units on 30 lots. Otherwise, the property owners would be limited to 20 residences. ELoad%ag: According to FIRM Panel #1810D dated 10/16/96, it notes that most of the property and all of the lots are located entirely in Zone C which is not a flood prone area and no special permits are required for development. There are areas of zone A, the 100 year floodplain, along the bluff which is set aside as common area and not intended for development. ACZ,_-_--a: Access to the development will be from two entrances off of Country Way South. Access to Country Way South is from Country Way via Whitefish Stage Road. Country Way South is a private road, a portion of which will be developed and opened for public use as a result of this subdivision. Country Way is a County road in fairly good condition that experiences primarily local traffic. Whitefish Stage Road is a State secondary highway and is in generally fair condition. Whitefish Stage Road was recently improved with an overlay and widening in some areas. It did not include the development of the center turn lane or removal of the curve near the Stillwater River Bridge nor was the roadway widened. Traffic within the Country Village No. 2 subdivision to the north of this property will experience some limited impacts associated with this subdivision., but not in excess of what the roadway will bear. Access onto Whitefish Stage Road will also experience an increase in traffic volume, but the overall impacts will be relatively insignificant. The internal subdivision roads including that portion of Country Way South adjacent to this subdivision will be required to be constructed to City standards and would include curb, gutter, sidewalks and a landscape boulevard. A bike and pedestrian path along the west side of Whitefish Stage Road runs from West Reserve Drive and continues to the west through Lawrence Park, over a bridge that crosses the Stillwater River and connects with the path near Buffalo Hill Golf Course. B. Effects on Wildlife and Wildlife Habitat: This property is generally considered a large rural residential property and has been used for limited grazing. It does not provide important wildlife habitat for any type of big game or endangered species. This area does not provide significant habitat for wildlife. C. Effects on the Natural Environment: Surface and groundwater: The Stillwater River lies to the west but no potential impacts to the river would be expected from this development because the area next to the river is designated as a common area to avoid disturbance and to ensure that it is left in a natural state. Groundwater impacts would generally be anticipated to be minimal as a result of this subdivision and would be impacted only through the absorption of storm water runoff. The subdivision will be served by public water and sewer, thereby minimizing any potential impacts to the groundwater. Drainage: This site is relatively level and does not pose any unusual challenges to site drainage. All storm water will have to be managed and maintained on -site. There is a large drainage swale that is part of the common area on the north end of the property that would be a likely area for storm water storage and retention. Curbs and gutters will be installed within the subdivision as part of a storm drain management plan which will have to be developed to address potential runoff from the site. An engineered drainage plan that has been developed in compliance with the City of Kalispell's Design and Construction Standards will be submitted to the Kalispell Public Works Department for their review and. approval. 4 D. Effects on Local Services: -Wtrx-: Water service will be provided by the Evergreen Water District which currently has facilities in the immediate area to the west. This property is currently within the district boundaries. Water service is available immediately to the east of this property within Country Way South and is connected to a hydrant. Mains can be extended from their existing location to provide service to the subdivision. The extension of these mains will provide the Evergreen. Water District with an opportunity to expand and improve their existing system. This may include developing a loop for the water system in the area servicing the subdivision. This will apparently be needed to provide adequate flows to the fire hydrant system in the area. Fire hydrants will be required to be placed in accordance with the Uniform. Fire Code and flow tested. The water system for fire flow purposes will be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Fire Department as well as reviewed for compliance with the standards and specifications of the Evergreen Water District and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality. Water will be metered by the Evergreen Water District and that information will be provided to the City of Kalispell for the purposes of determining sewer usage. Fewer: Sewer service for the subdivision will be provided by the City of Kalispell. Sewer lies to the east of this property within the Glacier Commons development. There appears to be adequate capacity in the sewer treatment plant and the existing collection system to accommodate the additional impacts to the system, as a reSUIt oltheMIS SLIO zIvisIOU. Ra: Traffic projections for this subdivision are estimated to be approximately 300 additional vehicle trips per day at full build out based on the estimate given in the Trip Ch--neration Manual published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers based on ten vehicle trips per dwelling. The new roads within the subdivision will be constructed to City standards. Primary access to the subdivision will be taken. from Country Way from Whitefish Stage Road. Currently this segment of Whitefish Stage Road is the third busiest roadway in the County and had 4,284 daily average vehicle trips in 1997. Whitefish Stage Road is a State secondary highway. Whitefish Stage Road is in Flathead County and as previously mentioned was improved in the spring of 2003. Whitefish Stage Road also provides ingress and egress to the subdivision but is classified as a minor arterial and is a State secondary highway. Currently there is no policy that the City or State has with regard to upgrades to these primary roadways when they provide primary access to new subdivisions. There is no provision for the assessment or collection of development impact fees. Roads in the area appear to be adequate to accommodate the additional traffic that may be generated from this subdivision at full build out. 5 Schools: This development is within the boundaries of School District #5, Kalispell, and Edgerton School would serve the primary grades. Edgerton. S'nhool is near or at its enrollment cnnarity. Tt ran hP nntiri-natPr3 that ar, additional 10 to 15 additional school aged children could be generated from this subdivision at full build out. This could have a moderate impact on the local school. The parents of the children would need to coordinate with the local school district regarding the placement of the children in schools within the district. Parks and 0 leSpace: The state and local subdivision regulations require that parkland dedication for major subdivisions in the amount of 11 percent or one -ninth of the area in lots. The Kalispell Subdivision Regulations have parkland dedication requirements and criteria. Section 3.19 addresses parkland dedication and outlines criteria for parkland requirements which provide that the city council, planning board arid parks department give due weight and consideration to the expressed preference of the subdivision to determine whether the park dedication must be land donation, cash or a combination of both. Criteria for parkland dedication requires that the land be useable land and serge the residents of the entire subdivision and in essence provide a recreational amenity. Section 3.19(C)(2)(d) does not allow "an undeveloped open space area within a subdivision which does not have appropriate size, dimensions or access to serve as a park" to be considered appropriate for park purposes. The developers are proposing a homeowners park area that lies at the end of the cul-de-sac at the northwest corner of the property. The entire "common area" within the subdivision is noted as 4.12 acres. However, the usable area 1.."7 CEpprvl`1"11J.1Gtil.ly 1.0 acres. %."�. kX-Lt_ c.iGVGkVp Lrs i'lilUGrJLdiAU i,k1dL sllli ily jGLllri j aside an undeveloped open space area does not qualify as -meeting the parkland dedication requirements and intend to develop the park area with amenities such as picnic tables, horseshoe pits, play equipment or other improvements along with irrigation and landscaping. There are rather significant slopes in the 1.5 area proposed as parkland, but it does not appear that more than. 10 percent of the area required for parkland dedication exceeds 25 percent within this common area as established as a limitation in the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations. Of the approximately 12.45 acres included in the subdivision, 5.54 acres is devoted to lots. Based on the one -ninth requirement for parkland or 11 percent of the area in lots, approximately O.609 acres would be required to meet the parkland dedication requirements. The proposed homeowners park will meet the parkland dedication requirements provided some basic improvements are made to the property such as irrigation, landscaping and equipment. Police: This subdivision is in the jurisdiction of the City of Kalispell Police Department. The department responded by stating that they can adequately provide service to this subdivision. 6 Fire Protr ction: Fire protection would be provided by the Kalispell Fire Department. Although fire risk is low because of good access, the fire department is recommending that access to the subdivision and the hydrants be in place prior to final plat approval. The fire marshal has commented that water main infrastructure shall be designed to meet the fire flow requirements of the Uniform Fire Code (1997) Appendix III -A, and fire hydrants delivering the required fire flow shall be provided prior to combustible construction. Hydrants shall be installed in accordance with City standards at locations approved by this department. Additionally approved fire department access shall be provided to ensure adequate vehicle ingress/egress. Secondary emergency vehicle access does not appear to be required to the south along Country Way South. Solid Waste, Solid waste will be handled by a private hauler 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 Medical Center is close by and less than three miles from the site. E. Effects on Agriculture and agricultural water user facilities: The site has been traditionally used for a large estate residence with some limited grazing. The location of the property and its proximity to urban services makes this property suitable for a relatively high density residential development as is being proposed. There will be relatively no 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.. F. Relation to Master Plan Map: This property is in the Kalispell. Growth Policy 2020 Potential Utility Service area and is anticipated to be developed to an Urban Residential density. This anticipates 4 to 12 dwelling units per acre and would be anticipated to be served by public water and sewer. The density within this subdivision is approximately 2.4 dwelling units per acre overall. Excluding the steep slope area this subdivision has a density of approximately 3 to 4 dwelling units per acre. The development is in compliance with anticipated land use and densities for this area. G. Compliance with Zoning: The proposed density within the subdivision complies with the proposed R-3 and R-4 density standards being proposed for this property as well as the dimensional requirements. There appears to be some confusion with regard to the numbering of proposed Lots 20A and 20B since these don't appear to be proposed for townhouse development but rather single family homes or perhaps a single family home and a storage building for maintenance equipment. This should be clarified at the time the final plat is filed. Alternately Lot 20B could be eliminated altogether and made part of the common area if the sole purpose is for the storage of equipment for maintenance of the common area. 7 H. Compliance with the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations: This subdivision complies with the Kalispell Subdivision Regulations and no variances have been requested. Staff recommends that the Kalispell City Planning Board adopt the findings in Staff Report ##KPP-04-10 and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the preliminary plat be approved subject to the following conditions: 1. Development of the subdivision shall be platted in substantial compliance with the approved preliminary plat which governs the number and location of lots within the subdivision, common areas and roadways. 2.
