REPORT TO: Kalispell Mayor and City Council
FROM: Narda. A. Wilson, Senior Planner

SUBJECT Annexation and Initial R-4 Zoning - Ashley Meadows Subdivision
MEETING DATE: May 19, 2003
BACKGROUND: This is a request for an initial zoning designation of R-4, Two Family
Residential, upon annexation to the city for property that lies near the northeast
comer of Bluestone and Denver Avenue. The property contains approximately 4.4
acres and is intended for development as Ashley Meadows Subdivision, a 13-lot
residential subdivision. City water and sewer would be extended to the site and the
subdivision would be developed to City standards. The R-4 zoning district is a that
allows single family dwellings and duplexes as permitted uses and has a minimum lot
size requirement of 6,000 square feet. The property owner has an existing single
family home on a portion of the original tract of record that has not been included in
the subdivision and is shown as a "remainder" parcel. The property is presently
zoned County R- 1, Suburban Residential, under the Flathead County Zoning
Regulations.
One of the recommended conditions of approval associated with the proposed
subdivision plat was that the property where the applicant's house is located be
annexed into the city prior to or concurrent with the filing of any final plat associated
with the subdivision. As it will currently exist, the property where the house is
located will be an island within the city of Kalispell. The property owner has no
objection to the annexation of the property where his house is located into the city
with the filing of the final plat for the subdivision.
The Kalispell City Planning Board held a public hearing regarding this matter at a
special meeting of April 29, 2003. A motion was made and passed unanimously to
forward a recommendation that initial zoning for this property should be R-4, Two
Family Residential, upon annexation to the city.
RECOMMENDATION: A motion to adopt the first reading of the ordinance for R-4
zoning upon annexation would be in order.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Minor positive impacts once fully developed.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the city council.

Re: Ashley Meadows Annexation and Initial Zoning of R-4, Two Family Residential
Dear Chris:
The Kalispell City Planning Board met on April 29, 2003, and held a public hearing to
consider a request by Tim Knoll for an initial zoning designation of R-4, Two Family
Residential, upon annexation to the city. The property contains approximately 4.415
acres and is located on the northeast corner of Bluestone and Denver Avenue. The
applicants are proposing City R-4, a Two Family Residential zoning district. The
property is currently zoned County R-1, Residential. This request for annexation and
initial zoning has been filed in conjunction with a proposal for a 13 lot residential
subdivision.
Narda Wilson of the Tri-City Planning Office presented staff report KA-03-6, evaluating
the proposed zoning. Staff recommended initial zoning of City R-4, Two Family
Residential based on the surrounding zoning and the Kalispell Growth Policy.
At the public hearing there were two neighbors from Stratford Subdivision to the south
who spoke in opposition to the density allowed under the proposed R-4 zoning because
of issues related to additional traffic, lack of parks in the area and safety concerns.
After the public hearing the board discussed the proposal and the density allowed under
the R-4 zoning. The board agreed that the proposed zoning was consistent with the
growth policy and other development that has taken place in the area. A motion was
made and passed unanimously to forward a recommendation that initial zoning for this
property should be R-4, Two Family Residential, upon annexation.
Please schedule this matter for the May 19, 2003 regular city council meeting. You may
contact this board or Narda Wilson at the Tri-City Planning Office if you have any
questions regarding this matter.

southwest Kalispell.
STAFF REPORT
Narda Wilson, with the Tri-City Planning Office, gave a
RA-03-6 AND F.PP 03-3
presentation of staff reports KA-03-6 and KPP-03-3
evaluating the appropriate zoning designation and the
preliminary plat. She noted area has had a substantial
amount of subdivision activity over the last several years and
this is an additional small area that has good development
potential- The property is located on the east side of Denver
Avenue, south of Sunnyside Drive and north of Stratford
Subdivision. The property contains approximately 4.4 acres
and the property owner is the applicant. They are proposing
to subdivide the property into 13 lots, extend a road into the
subdivision and extend water and sewer to service the
subdivision. The infrastructure would be built to City
standards which mean curbs, gutters, sidewalks and a
landscape boulevard.
In order to receive City services the owners are required to
annex to the City. They R-4 zoning has been proposed. This
will allow duplexes and single-family dwellings as permitted
uses. The minimum lot size for the district is 6,000 square
feet.
Kalispell City Planning Board
Minutes of the special meeting of April 29, 2003
Currently the property is listed in the County jurisdiction
and it is zoned R-1. In the immediate area there is City R-4
zoning to the south and to the east in South Meadows. To
the west is the City R-3 and the remaining area to west is
zoned R-1, a County zoning designation that requires a one
acreminimum lot size for newly created lots that are
generally not on public sewer.
The growth policy anticipates an urban density development
in this area when City utilities are available. The -urban land
use density is typically anticipated to be 4 to 12 dwelling
units per acre and under the R-4 zone this would be well
within that allowable density. This is consistent with the
land use pattern in the area, the anticipated development
under the growth policy and the type of single family and
duplex development that would be anticipated.
The staff is recommending that the planning board adopt the
staff report KA-03-6 and recommend to the Kalispell City
Council that the appropriate zoning would be R-4, Two
Family Residential, upon annexation to the city.
With regard to the subdivision, the applicant is proposing 13
lots on approximately e 4.4 with a remainder parcel where is
house is located. The lots would be between 6,700 square
feet and 32,000 square feet, well above the minimum lot size
for R-4. The Knolls house lies to the south of the proposed
internal access road and this property is not being included
in the subdivision but will be left as a remainder tract. He
would like to remain on his community well and on site
sewage treatment system. Those are issues that Will have to
be dealt with during the approval of the water and sewer
facilities to the site.
The general land use area is urban density to the south and
to the west and to the southeast within the South Meadows
subdivision where City utilities are available. The City will
provide full public services to the subdivision once annexed.
A hydrant will be brought and adequate turn around will be
created for the fire trucks. The fire department would like to
approve the fire access and suppression system prior to any
combustibles being brought onto the site. ,
One distinguishing feature is Ashley Creek that runs along
the north boundary of the property. The floodplain map
1815 that was revised in 1992 and establishes the floodplain
elevation at 2928. All of the lots where houses would be
constructed are well outside the 100-year floodplain area.
Another significant feature of the site is a fairly steep slope
along the north boundary going down to Ashley Creek. There
is an approximately 20-foot drop between the top of the hill
and the edge of floodplain. There is more concerned about
the development of this area on steep slopes than the
Kalispell City Planning Board
Minutes of the special meeting of April 29, 2003
pncy,- 7
floodplain. Therefore a recommended conditional of approval
is that a 40 x 40 building pad be indicated on lots 4 and 5
that is outside of the steep slope area and within the R-4
zoning setbacks.
It appears that lots 3, 4 and 5 do not comply with the
minimum lot width of the R-4 zoning designation which is 50
feet. Those lots will have to slightly reconfigure to comply
with the minim -am lot width requirements. Lots 9 and 10 to
the south are on a cul-de-sac and are considered irregularly
shaped lots. The lot width is I measured from the building set
back lines that is 15 feet. They meet the 50-foot minimum
lot width. -
A new access road will be developed off of Denver Avenue to
serve this subdivision. This road does not bring a clean
alignment with the extension of Bismarck. The offset
between Bismarck and the new access road to the north is
100 feet. The subdivision regulations require a minimum
offset of 125 feet thereby requiring that the applicant obtain
a variance to the roadway alignment requirements. The
reason for the variance to those roadway alignment
requirements I is because Mr. Knoll's house is right in the
middle of where the roadway extension would be were it to be
extended in a straight line. This variance request went to the
site development review committee along with the
subdivision and it was a unanimous consensus that the City
supports a recommendation for a variance to avoid requiring
a relocation of Knoll's house. However, a reconsideration of
alignment of roadway would be warranted because it would
result in a better subdivision design and probably additional
lots.
The staff will continue to work with Mr. Knoll regarding this
issue, but essentially a reconfiguration would end up with a
new location for the cul-de-sac. Lots on the north and south
of the roadway thereby making fall use of the infrastructure
on both sides of the road. There are some practical reasons
for not relocating the house because it is a split entry and
would likely result in forsaking the entire structure which is
only around ten years old.
An additional variance is being south regarding the lot
design. The subdivision regulations require lots have no
greater depth than three times the width. The lots in the
area to the north exceed the length to width ratio because
they back up to the flood plain and steep slope area. There
is an evaluation of the variance requests based on the
evaluation criteria in the staff report. The subdivision
regulations address variances and the two are being asked
for dealing with the road alignment and the lot design. Both
of the variances are based on unique circumstances that
would result in a hardship to owner versus an
Kalispell City Planning Board
miniiteq ofthe sneci2l meetimy of Anril 29. 2003
inconvenience.
With a variance regarding the lot configuration, the special
circumstance in this situation, is the topography of the
property and the shape of the property. It is an oddly shaped
lot with a point to the north that is unusable. Essentially the
lots would comply with the three to one length to width ratio
of the steep slope and floodplain were removed.
The property is within school District 5 and it can be
estimated that this subdivision will generate and additional
five to seven students into District 5 at full build out. An
additional requirement for major subdivisions is parkland
dedication and open space of 11 percent or one ninth of the
area in lots. The environmental assessment notes that cash
in lieu of parkland is being proposed in the amount of
$3,8.87 which is based, on a- valuation of $10,000 per acre
and unimproved value of the area in lots.
The staff is making three recommendations to the planning
board: (1) a recommendation for R-4 zoning upon
annexation; (2) approval of the variance requests for the road
alignment and length to width variance on the lot design and
(3) approval of the subdivision subject to the conditions
outlined in the staff report.
A minor amendment to the conditions in the staff report is to
delete the reference to "Denver Court" in condition 5 to read
"the road within the subdivision shall be signed in
accordance with policies of the Kalispell Public Works
Department and the Uniform Traffic Control Devices Manual
and be subject to review and approval of the Kalispell Fire
Department."
Denver Court is an issue for the applicant but will be
ultimately left up to the fire department and public works
department. The applicant can discuss the issue of the road
name with that department.
PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak
I on the issue.
APPLICANT/AGENCIES Erica Wirtala, Sands Surveying, 2 Village Loop representing
the applicant addressed the board asking that if additional
question come up after the public hearing they would
appreciate the opportunity to answer those questions. She
reiterated the point that due to the location of the house,
where the Knolls reside, it would create a considerable
devaluation to the home if not a total loss. The Knolls believe
that because of this it will be best to leave it in place and
design the subdivision around it. The property where the
house is located is not part of the subdivision. Ridgeview
Kalispell City Planning Board
Minutes of the special meeting of April 29, 2003
D- A
Court has been granted an easement across this property
but is not apart of the subdivision.
The variance to the design criteria for road alignment of 125
feet from center line to center line of Bismarck and Ridgeview
Court will have a minimal impact because it is a dead end
street with traffic coming in and out for a cul-de-sac and not
a through street. The road will only be used by the families
of the 13 lots which will limit the traffic flow. On the issue of
the second variance request of the 3 to 1 length to width
ratio, the homes on the designated lots will be building
homes to the front portions of the properties and the
remainder of those lots will remain in acreage. They will
comply with the design standards for the City.
The applicant has chosen "cash in lieu of parkland" because
there is a lot north of the project that the City is attempting
to purchase and Begg Park in the immediate area.
Tim Knolls, 880 Sunnyview Drive, stated he started two
years ago to building one house on 4.4 acres for one of his
children. He went through the County and thought he could
split the property into four one acre lots. But because of
state laws that are in place and after visiting with Dick
Amerman and Narda Wilson, he decided to look into
developing a small subdivision instead. In looking at
development in the area they are trying to make the area
appealing to neighbors. He stated that they have lived in
their home for ten years and have seen substantial growth
during that period.
Ron Van Natta indicated they have received two written
comments from Sue Paulson and from David Smirnow in
opposition to the subdivision and the board we will take time
to look at those letters at the conclusion of the hearing.'
PUBLIC COMMENT Luke Knoll, 880 Sunnyview Drive stated he would be
building in this area so he can raise family in a nice home
and area. The cul-de-sac will reduce traffic in the area and
he asked the board for their support on the project.
Paul Hustead, 3036 Trumble Creek Road stated that he
represents H & H Custom Carpentry and that they that
would be building houses in this area. He noted that he has
lived in this area and feels that this development would be a
good fit in with the other houses in the area. Because he
lived in the Flathead Valley area, he can understand the
growth issues and concerns. The houses that he will be
building will be single family and one or two stories which
will blend in with the other homes in this area.
Sue Polson, 1827 Bluestone stated that she wrote one of the
Kalispell City Planning Board
Minwets of the sm-.cial mectinp, of Anril 29. 2003
letters that the board received. She is not opposed to
development, but is interested in the city council addressing
some of her issues. The R-1 zoning currently assigned to
this property is single family and she moved to this area for
the zoning. She currently lives in an area with an R-4 zoning
and she does not want massive amounts townhouses, like
much of Ashley Park, abutting her property. She wants the
quiet family life style that is in the neighborhood now. She
questioned why if zoned R-4 it does not include the Knoll
home and why if it is in the City it would remain on septic
and well. If there is a subdivision then everyone needs to be
on City water and sewer. She knows it will add additional
cost but with subdividing, the cost can be made up. She is
concerned about the number of children in the subdivision.
In the current area there are 22 children and the area
attracts families because of the relatively cheaper cost of the
housing. There is a need to address the traffic and safety
concerns of children playing in the area. You can read other
concerns in regard to the zoning in the letter she wrote and
she will try to answer any questions.
Dave Smirnow, 1819 Bluestone stated that he is a new
residence from Ohio. Since he is from large cities, he has
seen unplanned growth of country space. The planning in
this case seems haphazard and piece meal. He would like to
see a more cogent approach to development. He is not
opposed to development but it needs to be done in a rational,
well thought out way including green space and parks near
to homes, without the risk of children being injured by cars
or other moving vehicles. He would like to have these close
to his home. The cost of housing in this area is reasonable
for the Valley and many young families and children are
moving in with. increased traffic: as a result. Without park
land and play areas, there is a significant risk of injury to the
children and pedestrians as well as disturbance to the
character of the neighborhood. He is glad to hear that the
Knolls are staying in area; because it is reassuring that the
quality of the housing and nature of the lots will be in tune
with the surrounding neighborhoods. However, from the
density of the houses in this section town, he is concerned
about what impact this mode of development will bring to the
area. Because he has seen urban sprawl take over
farmlands in other areas, he is worried about sprawl in these
areas and does not want it to happen here.
No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was
closed.
MOTION Johnson moved and Anderson seconded a motion to accept
the requested initial zoning of R-4 upon annexation to the
city of Kalispell and adopt the staff report, KA-03-6 as
findings of fact.
Kalispell City Planning Board
Minutes of the special meeting of April 29, 2003
D- A
BOARD DISCUSSION George Taylor said that this development is consistent with
the growth policy that the planning board recommended and
the city council adopted.
Ron Van Natta noted that it is consistent with the growth
policy for this area because it is designated as an area for
urban residential development in the growth policy. This
zoning certainly fits that criteria and is consistent with the
zoning of the area.
Jean Johnson commented that the subject property is totally
surrounded by similar types of zoning and that the requested
zoning seems to be consistent with the area.
Van Natta noted that the R-4 does allow for townhouses or
duplexes and that there is the potential for that type of
development to occur.
Norton asked if there would be a need for a variance to the
zoning. Wilson responded that the zoning issue is addressed
by condition 9 of the preliminary plat that the lots within the
subdivision be reconfigured so that all lots meet the 50 foot
lot width requirement of the R-4 zoning district. So they do
have the ability to rearrange the lots just by a minor redesign
thereby getting them to comply with zoning. That would not
require a variance. When the subdivision comes in for final
plat approval there would be a redesign on that so those lots
would meet those 50 foot lot width and would also
designated a 40 x 40 foot building pad is off of the steep
slope to the north and as a result may end up loosing a lot.
Taylor asked about the statement of moving the house would
be a hardship but not an inconvenience and if that would
render condition 13 a moot point. Wilson responded that
condition 13 states that "consideration" be given to relocating
the house which would result in a better design. if ultimately
Mr. Knoll decides that he does not want to move the house,
then the proposed design would stay in place. By putting in
that reconsideration to relocate the house to allow for the
alignment and extension of Bismarck, it would allow the
redesign of the subdivision without further preliminary plat
review before the planning board and council. With that
condition it is recognized that the redesign is the preferred
alternative.
Mr. Hull asked if Mr. Knoll owns the lot to the north and it
was answered that he does not, but rather has a shared well
agreement with the property owners.
As a follow-up to some of the questions that arose at the
meeting, Wilson noted that in one of letters there was a
reference to multi -family development. The R-4 zoning does
not allow multi -family development as either a_permitted or
Kalispell City Planning Board
Miniit nfthP c"PciAl MPPtinu of Anr" " 'Yn("
conditionally permitted use but rat -her it anticipates single-
family and duplexes as the primary uses. It would be
essentially the same type and size of development that they
have in Stratford Subdivision immediately to the south.
Typically with the R-4 zones, you are not seeing any more 25
percent of the lots being developed in a duplex fashion.
Wilson noted that leaving the Knoll property where the house
sits as an island in the county could cause some confusion
with emergency service personnel. It was a -unanimous
recommendation from the site review committee to require
that the property be annexed and this was included as one of
the conditions of approval. It is recommended that the
property be annexed into the city concurrent with the first
phase of final plat, approval. This is from practical
stndpoimt and also for, emergency purposes. Logistically
this makes sense.
Van Natta said that Mr.. Smirnow mentioned parks which
has been a problem that we have dealt with before. There
has been talk of a park north of Sunnyside, but he is not
sure if anything has materialized. It is difficult with less
than one, acre to develop a park in every area.
Wilson noted that the City subdivision regulations have
criteria that the City will not accept anything under a one
acre site for parkland. A homeowner's association could
develop the 0.3 acres instead of the cash in lieu of parkland,
but it would be a private homeowners park that would be
owned and maintained by a homeowner's association. Small
parks do not generally provide adequate recreational space.
Taylor asked if the applicants had any issues with the
remainder portion being annexed. Wirtala responded that
they were did not object to being annexed and realized it was
a condition of approval.
ROLL CALL I The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote.
MOTION (MAIN) Johnson moved and Anderson seconded a motion to adopt
the findings in staff report KPP-03-3 as findings of fact and
recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the subdivision
be approved subject to the 16 conditions outlined in the staff
report.
MOTION (VARIANCE ON Johnson moved and Anderson seconded a motion to adopt
THE LOT DESIGN) staff report KPP-03-3 . as findings of fact and grant the
variance to the requirement "that no lot shall have a greater
depth that 3 times its average width, unless the lot width is
greater that two hundred feet."

BOARD DISCUSSION
Hull said it seemed to be a typical hardship where there is
something unusual about the property that requires and
allows a variance. In this case because of the steep, slope, he
thinks a variance makes sense.
Van Natta agreed with the above, and it is situation where we
are coming up against a creek and there are some kinds of
odd boundaries that have to be dealt with. He is in
concurrence.
ROLL CALL
The motion passed unanimously on a roll call vote.
MOTION (VARIANCE TO

variance be granted to the requirement that "two streets
meeting a third street from an opposite side shall meet at the
same point or there center lines shall be offset by at least
125 feet for local roads and 300 feet for arterials."
BOARD DISCUSSION
Jean Johnson would normally be opposed to the variance
but given the circumstances in this instant, he would be in
favor of it.
Norton agreed with Johnson, that under the circumstances
of the house being there, he does not think that 25 feet is
going to make a huge amount of difference on visibility or
safety.

Wilson noted that this property is located on the west side of
Hwy 93 directly across from Kelly Road. Rosauers lies to the
north, the water resources board to the south along with
Penco and Big I R and the Kalispell City Airport adjoins this

Kalispell did when Daley Field was subdivided into three lots
and sold. The ballfields were relocated to the Kalispell Youth
Athletic Complex in Section 36. The property is in the Airport
Urban Renewal District and this property was sold shortly
after the district was created that was intended to do some
improvements to the City airport. The current property

REQUEST FOR INITIAL ZONING OF R-4 UPON ANNEXATION
TRI-CITY PLANNING OFFICE
STAFF REPORT #KA-03-6
APRIL 22, 2003
A report to the Kalispell City Planning Board and the Kalispell City Council regarding the
initial zoning of R-4 upon annexation to the city on property in southwest Kalispell. A
public hearing has been scheduled before the planning board for April 29, 2003 beginning
at 7:00 PM in the Kalispell City Council Chambers. The planning board will forward a
recommendation to the Kalispell City Council for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
This report evaluates the appropriate assignment of a City zoning classification in
accordance with Section 27.03.010(4) of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. The developer
has petitioned annexation and initial zoning classification of R-4, a Two Family Residential
district. The property is in the County zoning jurisdiction and is zoned County R-1, a
Suburban Residential district. This property will be annexed under the provisions of
Sections 7-2-4601 through 7-2-4610, M.C.A., Annexation by Petition. The request for
annexation and initial zoning has been filed concurrently with a preliminary subdivision
plat, Ashley Meadows.

(406) 755-6481
B. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property proposed for annexation
lies east of Lone Pine View Estates, south of Sunnyside Drive and north of Stratford
Subdivision Phase 1. The property proposed for annexation and initial zoning can
be described as a portion of Assessor's Tract 7AACAA and Assessor's Tract 7ABA
located in Section 19, Township 28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County,
Montana.
C. 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.
D. Proposed Zoning: City R-4, Two -Family Residential, has been proposed for the
property. The R-4 zoning district allows duplexes and single-family dwellings as
permitted uses. The minimum lot size for the district is 6,000 square feet and a
minimum lot width of 50 feet with setbacks of 15 feet in the front, ten feet in the rear
and five feet on the sides.
E. Size: The area proposed for annexation and zoning contains approximately 4.4 acres.
F. Existing Land Use: Currently this property is being used for residential and there is
a single-family residence located on the property near the southwest comer of the site.
G. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning: The immediate area is characterized by single-
family homes on urban sized lots in the area to the east and single-family homes on
the larger lots to the lots to the west and north.
North: Large lot subdivision with single-family homes, County R- 1 zoning
East: Single-family homes; City R-4 and County R- 1 zoning
South: Stratford Subdivision, City R-4 zoning.
West: Single family homes, City R- 1 zoning
H. General Land Use Character: The area can be described as a transitional area
between the urban areas of Kalispell to the east and the more rural undeveloped area
of the county to the west. The immediate area is characterized by single-family homes
on urban sized lots in the area with larger single-family homes on the larger lots to
the lots to the west and north. An urban density residential subdivision, Lone Pine
View Estates, lies immediately to the west of this property and the Stratford
Subdivision, an urban density subdivision is currently under development on
approximately 30 acres to the south of this property.
I. Availability of Public Services and Extension of Services: Public services,
including City water and sewer, can be provided to this site and will be done in
accordance with the City of Kalispell's Extension of Services Plan and in accordance
with Kalispell's Design and Construction Standards.
EVALUATION BASED ON STATUTORY CRITERIA
The statutory basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by 76-2-205, M.C.A.
Findings of fact for the zone change request are discussed relative to the itemized criteria
described by 76-2-203, M.C.A.
1. Does the requested zone comply with the growth policy?
The property is designated by the Kalispell Growth Policy future land use map as
"Urban Residential" which anticipates residential development with a density of
between four to 12 dwelling units per acre. Because of the provision of public water
and sewer to the site, the proposed R-4 zoning designation is in compliance with the
future land use designation for the area. The R-4 zoning has a minimum lot size
requirement of 6,000 square feet with each lot allowing a duplex or a base density of
one dwelling per 3,000 square feet. This same development pattern is reflected in
the R-4 zoned subdivision to the east, South Meadows, where most of the lots are
single-family and townhouse units as well as the Stratford Subdivision to the south
and Sunnyside Subdivision to the west, which is currently under development. The
proposed zoning is in compliance with the anticipated land use for the area with
anticipates a mix of single-family and duplex dwellings in urban residential areas.
4
2. Is the requested zone designed to lessen congestion in the streets?
Once the property is developed, all of the improvements and infrastructure will be
constructed to city standards. Traffic in the area will increase. The requested
zoning designation and subsequent development of the site will not lessen
congestion in the streets in the area, but is anticipated to occur as development of
the area continues.
3. Will the requested zone secure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers?
Adequate access and public facilities are available to the site in the case of an
emergency. There are no features related to the property which would compromise
the safety of the public. New construction will be required to be in compliance with
the building safety codes of the City which relate to fire and building safety. All
municipal services including police and fire protection, water and sewer service is
available to the area and will be extended as part of the development of this
property at some point in the future.
4. Will the requested zone promote the health and general welfare?
The requested zoning classification will promote the health and general welfare by
restricting land uses to those that would be compatible with the adjoining
properties and providing a place for new housing in the community.
5. Will the requested zone provide for adequate light and air?
Setback, height, and coverage standards for development occurring on this site are
established in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance to insure adequate light and air is
provided.
6. Will the requested zone prevent the overcrowding of land?
As previously noted this area has been anticipated for urban residential
development and now that public water and sewer are in close proximity an R-4
zoning designation is appropriate. The anticipated density falls within the proposed
R-4 zoning designation. All public services and facilities will be available to serve
this subdivision. An overcrowding of land would occur if infrastructure were
inadequate to accommodate the development in the area. This is unlikely to occur.
7. Will the requested zone avoid undue concentration of people?
Minimum lot standards and use standards as well as subdivision development
standards will avoid the undue concentration of people at the time the property is
developed.
3
8. Will the requested zone facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water,
sewerage, schools, -parks, and other public requirements?
All public services and - facilities are currently available or can be provided to the
property. Development should be encouraged in areas where these services are
available.
9. Does the requested zone give consideration to the -particular suitability of the
property for particular uses?
The proposed R-4 zoning district is consistent with the surrounding zoning and
land uses in the area and gives due consideration of the suitability of this property
for the permitted uses in the district.
10. Does the _ requested zone give reasonable consideration to the character of the
district?
The general character of the area to the east is urban sized lots for residential
development. The same type of development can be anticipated to occur on this
property and will be consistent with the character of the district.
11. Will the proposed zone conserve the value of buildings?
Value of the buildings in the area will be conserved because the R-4 zoning will
promote compatible and like uses on this property as are found on other properties
in the area.
12, Will the requested zone encourage the most appropriate use of the land throughout
the municipality?
Urban scale residential development should be encouraged in areas were services
and facilities are available such as is being proposed on this parcel. The proposed
zoning is consistent with the future land use designations for the area and
surrounding zoning in the area.
It is recommended that the Kalispell City Planning Board and Zoning Commission adopt
Staff Report #KA-03-6 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that
the initial zoning for this property upon annexation be R-4, Two Family Residential.

61h Avenue West Apartments — 5-plex — B-2 — Bill Dubeau checked fire flows and
they are adequate. The van accessible parking space has been addressed. Matt Waati
will be the contact person. Utilities will be installed by Russ Olsen. Drainage will be
to the road. There will be two storm sewer collections at the corners of the
intersection_ Solid waste pickup will be in the alley. Landscaping should be done
around the building. Building elevations and a landscaping plan will be need for the
Architectural Review Committee. Sidewalks are already existing. The general
contractor, Don Frownfelter, will control the roof drainage. Public Works is okay
with this project.
Mountain View Plaza — plans for Borders/Ross/TJ Maxx on large rear pad; Pier 1
on outparcel close to highway (first outparcel to develop) — Public Works has
concerns regarding the infrastructure, retention facility isn't fenced and the fire
hydrant is not accessible. There is no landscaping plan. Mike met with the
consultant and contractor. Blair told P. J. the fire hydrant issue would be taken care
of. The irrigation isn't complete, but the contractor is scheduled to get back in there.
They could bond for the landscaping. Mike is okay with the list, but he needs the
landscaping plan. The fire pad issues is still pending.
Rawson Field — They have opted out of the zoning process by claiming the agency
exemption.
NE`sV BUSINESS:
Lot 4. Ridaeview — tabled until next Thursday.
Plannin6 Board Agenda
Turner's Subdivision in the Northeast corner of Three Mile Drive and
Stillwater Road — between the Blue Heron Subdivision and the North View
Subdivision. Water and sewer are coming from Sunset Court. The bypass
goes through a corner of the lot, but is not part of the subdivision. This is not
two subdivision development areas. There will be one access. The
landowner to the north has access to the bypass. Have 1.78 acres ofpark land
. Buffer zone all around and walkway/bike path. If both sides of the
subdivision can't have access to the bypass, then the second part of the
subdivision may not be built. They will contact Loren Fraser regarding the
bypass. There are connections between this land and to the land to the North
and to Northridge also. Ask for letter from DOT approving their access
through there. Pushing for annexation and zoning to be part of the City
sewer. Fire flows need to be determined and comply. Public Works and the
engineer need to meet about the water issue. Discussion was held. An
agreement would be made between the City and the parties on the water
situation. Impacts to Three Mile and Stillwater would be based on a traffic
study. The park in the front is less than an acre. The other park could be
private or public. The subdivision will have duplexes around the outside and
the rest would be single family homes. If the density is in agreement with the
growth policy, there should not be a problem with the density. Concerns
about the right-of-way for further road development was discussed. Mike
will look at the Alternate Transportation Plan for Stillwater. This project will
phase in with about 6 to 8 phases.
Ashlev Meadows Subdivision — Knoll wants to leave house out, call it a
remainder, and leave it on a septic. He wants a variance to subdivisions
standards that require the roads to line up. If the house was moved, there
could be two additional lots added to his project. A condition of the
subdivision is that this is a whole project, including the one house on one
acre, and all must be annexed. We recommend approval of the variance for
the offset. There will be cash in lieu of the park land.
Resubdividing Daley Field — There is no frontage road. Public Works,
Planning, and the City Attorney need to talk about the state collectors and
arterials. Chris thinks we should take the right-of-way or make it a condition
of approval but clarify who should take care of that area. Who carries the
liability in this area.
4'h Avenue West — want to annex a corner and leave house as a remainder
and create three lots. Extension of 4th Avenue West. The easement needs to
go. There will be a duplex and two townhouses with a cul-de-sac. They
could :Hove the cul-de-sac down. This was submitted for annexation and
zoning.
Dorothy Getz — Request for annexation and zoning of three acres on the
south side of Appleway.
Lee's Meridian Business Park — Property owners have cooperated to
produce a proposal that would build a street from the cul-de-sac on Meridian
Court across Meridian Tracts and connect to Second Street West.
