REPORT TO: Kalispell Mayor and City Council
FROM: Narda A. Wilson, Senior Planner
Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager
SUBJECT Conditional Use Permit - Northridge Lutheran Church Expansion
MEETING DATE: September 3, 2002
BACKGROUND: This is a request by Northridge Lutheran Church for a conditional
use permit to allow the expansion of their existing church on an undeveloped area to
the north. Northridge Lutheran Church is located at 323 Northridge Drive located on
the north side of Eight Ave E.N. and north of Oregon Street in Kalispell. The property
is 340 feet deep and has 500 feet of frontage along Northridge Drive and contains
approximately 2.8 acres.
The addition would be generally off the north and west ends of the existing building.
The existing church building contains approximately 9,263 square feet. The new
portion of the building will add approximately 11,361 square feet which would be
intended to be used primarily for classrooms and as a gathering place. Additional
restrooms would also be part of the addition. The entire square footage of the church
with the existing and new addition would be approximately 20,226 square feet when
completed. The building height would vary in areas from 14 feet to 30 feet in the new
part of the building.
This area is primarily residential in nature and the church fills the need for a
neighborhood church in the area. A City park is also in close proximity to the church
and is well developed and maintained as a large neighborhood park.
The Kalispell City Planning Board held a public hearing at their regular meeting of
August 13, 2002. One letter from property owner in the neighborhood was received
and presented to the planning board that outlined some concerns relating to
landscaping, lighting and snow storage. There was no one else either in favor or in
opposition to the project. There was some discussion regarding the consideration of a
sidewalk in front of the church since there are no other sidewalks in the area. The
planning board generally agreed that a sidewalk would provide some safety and
potentially encourage other sections of sidewalks to be installed. A motion was made
and passed on a 5-0 vote, with Ron Van Natta abstaining as he is an officer of the
church, to recommend to the city council that the conditional use permit be granted
subject to the conditions in the staff report.

Re: Conditional Use Permit - Northridge Lutheran Church Expansion
Dear Chris:
The Kalispell City Planning Board met on August 13, 2002, and held a public hearing
to consider a request by the Northridge Lutheran Church for a conditional use permit
to allow an approximately 11,361 square foot expansion onto their existing 9,263
square foot church located at 323 Northridge Drive in Kalispell. The property is zoned
R-3, a residential zoning district that is oriented primarily for single family homes and
lists churches as conditionally permitted uses. The church property contains
approximately 2.8 acres and the addition would be towards the north on a
undeveloped portion of the site.
Thomas Jentz, of the Tri-City Planning Office, presented staff report KCU-02-6
evaluating the project. One letter had been received from a property owner in the area
citing some concerns related to lighting and landscaping and asked the church and
planning board to consider those. Staff recommended approval of the conditional use
permit subject to the conditions listed in the staff report.
At the public hearing, no one spoke either in favor or in opposition to the proposal and
the public hearing was closed. After the public hearing, the board discussed the
proposal and whether a requirement for a sidewalk would be appropriate on this
property and noted there were no sidewalks in the area. They also discussed the
issues raised by the neighbor and the applicants stated they would be sensitive to
those concerns. A motion was made and passed on a 5-0 vote with Ron Van Natta
abstaining as he is an officerof the church to forward a recommendation to the city
council that the conditional use permit be granted subject to the conditions outlined
on attached Exhibit A.
Please schedule this matter for the September 3, 2002 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.

square footage of the church with the existing and new
addition would be approximately 20,226 square feet when
completed_ The building height would vary in areas from 14
feet to 30 feet in the new part of the building. Jentz
mentioned some minor issues regarding sidewalk and storm
water drainage. He noted a letter received stating concerns
about storm water drainage, landscaping, and lighting. Staff
recommended approval of the request with conditions.
Atkinson asked and Jentz answered that the snow storage
area was an engineering design issue and their concern was
that it be looked at and not forgotten.
APPLICANT/AGENCIES
Alan Peterson, with Architects Northwest, said they were
amiable to the conditions and the only thing they would ask
was that they wait until the neighborhood has more of a
sidewalk before they have to put one in.
PUBLIC HEARING
The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak
on the issue.
PROPONENTS
No one wished to speak.
OPPONENTS
No one wished to speak and the public hearing was closed.
MOTION
Spooner moved and Atkinson seconded to adopt staff report

City Council that the conditional use permit be granted
subject to conditions.
BOARD DISCUSSION
Rice commented on the letter received saying he hoped the
church would be good neighbors and address those
concerns.
Spooner suggested the sidewalks go in now since she didn't
know how soon the residential area would get sidewalks and
the church would benefit by having a safe walking area.
There was a brief discussion regarding the sidewalks. John
Peterson said it was not a big issue in the overall scheme. It
was concluded that sidewalks were an important element of
the project.

Subject: Public Hearing, August 13, 2002, agenda item No. 4 pertaining to the Northridge Lutheran
Church expansion.
Greetings,
As property owners of lot 7 just North of subject property, we would like to offer the following comments
with reference to the Site Plan copy supplied by you as follows:
1. Concerning the hedge indicated along the West and North property line, especially at the rear of our
lot. Over the years we have removed no less than six mature trees along our rear fence in order to enjoy
the open space to the South. Granted, the new building will reduce that space somewhat. Also it appears
that the hedge would be situated right in the utilities easement. Is it really needed?
2. Concerning the snow storage area at the North end of the West parking lot. That corner of the church
lot appears to be quite low in elevation. As long as the snow pile melts gradually, there may be no
problem. But the potential of water pooling around and in the utilities boxes located there is a possibility.
3. The parking lot illumination. We do appreciate the lighting now being used and hope any additional
lighting will be similar.
4. The present storage shed. We do not know what will replace it, but please don't let all that refuse, etc.,
end up at our back fence.
As you can see, it appears that we home owners along the North/West corner of the church property will
be impacted the most by the new construction. We will appreciate very much your consideration of these
and any other potential problems.
In closing we wish to say that the Northridge Lutheran Church has been a very good neighbor.

B. Size and Location: Northridge Lutheran Church is located at 323 Northridge Drive
located on the north side of Eight Ave E.N. and north of Oregon Street in Kalispell.
The property is 340 feet deep and has 500 feet of frontage along Northridge Drive
and contains approximately 2.8 acres. The property can be described as Lot 1,
Block 1, Northeast Addition located in Section 8, Township 28 North, Range 21
West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.
C. Nature of Request: The applicants are requesting a conditional use permit to
allow the expansion of their existing church on an undeveloped area to the north.
The addition would be generally off the north and west ends of the existing
building. The existing church building contains approximately 9,263 square feet.
The new portion of the building will add approximately 11,361 square feet which
would be intended to be used primarily for classrooms and as a gathering place.
Additional restrooms would also be part of the addition. The entire square footage
of the church with the existing andnew addition would be approximately 20,226
square feet when completed. The building height would vary in areas from 14 feet
to 30 feet in the new part of the building.
D. Existing Land Use and Zoning: There is an existing church on the property which
contains approximately 9,263 square feet with an undetermined seating area in the
sanctuary portion of the building. There are two parking lots on the east and west
sides of the building that have direct access onto Northridge Drive. The parking lots
are paved and there is landscaping in front of the church building and green space
and play areas in back of the building and to the north of both parking lots. There
are two approaches to each of the parking lots onto Northridge Drive for a total of
four existing accesses onto the site. The normal church hours are 8:00 A.M. to
i
10:00 P.M. with the uses primarily for worship and meetings. There are occasional
other uses typically associated with churches such as weddings and funerals.
E. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses Zoning: This area can be described as
residential in character with the church being the only non-residential use in the
immediate area. Most of the residences are single-family homes.
North: Single-family residences, City R-3 zoning
South: Single-family residences, City R-3 zoning
East: Single-family residences, City R-3 zoning
West: Single-family residences, City R-3 zoning
F. Master Plan Designation: The Kalispell City County Master Plan Map
designates this area as urban residential. The plan itself anticipates the need for
semi-public services such as schools and services within residential districts.
This proposal can be found to be in substantial compliance with the master plan.

a. Adequate s able Space: There is approximately 2.822 acres of property
the church currently owns which is devoted to the church building and
addition, parking, landscaping and play areas. With the new addition to
the existing church, the lot coverage will be approximately 16.7 percent.
Parking will occupy approximately 34 percent of the site and the rest
would be devoted to landscaping, sidewalks and play areas. Total
coverage on the site including the building and impervious surface created
by the parking is approximately 50 percent with the remaining 50 percent
of the site in impervious area or green space. There is more than
adequate usable space on the site for the addition to the church and
additional parking.
b. Adequate Access: Four accesses to the site currently exist comprised of
two accesses at the east and west ends of the site. Access to the site is
directly off of Northridge Drive. There will be no modifications to the
accesses onto the street. Northridge Drive is a paved City street with curb
and gutter, but no sidewalks.
0
C. Environmental Constraints- There are no obvious environmental
constraints associated with this property or in the area such as floodplain
or wetlands areas, steep slopes or severe drainage problems. The site is
nearly level and there is adequate room on the site to accommodate any
needed additional on -site drainage retention. There are already two or
three stormwater detention areas on the site which are indicated on the
site plan at the north end of the parking lot to the east and one within the
landscape island between the driveways. There is an additional graveled
area approximately five feet wide that runs along the west boundary of the
property adjacent to the parking lot. A stormwater management plan will
need to be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works
Department prior to the issuance of a building permit.
a. Parking Scheme: Currently there are approximately 84 existing paved
parking spaces provided in conjunction with the existing church within
the east and west parking lots. New parking would be developed to the
north of the west parking lot and would create 32 additional new paved
parking spaces. A snow storage area has been provided at the terminus of
this new parking area. The proposed expansion of the church will create
a fellowship hall which will not necessarily increase the seating capacity of
the church. The parking requirements for the church would be driven by
the seating capacity at one per five seat or by the square footage of the
assembly area at one space per 40 square feet. It appears the assembly
area is 60 by 55 or 3,300 square feet generating a need for 82.5 parking
spaces. There are 84 parking spaces currently and an additional 32
spaces will be added with the expansion for a total of 116 parking spaces.
Since the expansion of the church does not expand the assembly area the
additional parking would not technically be required. It might also be
noted however, that there is an approximately 35 by 35-foot meeting room
off of the assembly area that is separated with folding doors that can be
opened to expand the assembly area if needed. If this additional area were
added to the assembly area of the church the total square footage would
be approximately 4,525 square feet generating a need for 113 parking
spaces. Overall, the existing and new parking will accommodate the
parking requirements for the church and the new expansion.
b. Traffic Circulation: Traffic circulation for this property will not change
once the new portion of the church building has been constructed. All of
the accesses will be retained from Northridge Drive and no changes will be
made to the access or traffic circulation within the parking lot to the east.
The parking lot to the west will be expanded to the north and will be paved
and striped. As a result of the expansion of the parking lot on the west
side of the church, it can be anticipated that there will be potentially more
traffic generated from the west end of the building that from the east end
of the building onto Northridge Drive at certain times when there are
services or other events.
3
C. Open Space: No spec open space requirements are applicable to a
church use other than those associated with the required setbacks which
have been adequately observed on the site plan. Because of the large size
of the parcel, there is a significant amount of space on the site that will
remain undeveloped. The property to the north of the church building
and parking lots will remain in green space and will continue to be used
as a play area, lawn area and buffering between the church and the
residential properties that surrounding it.
d. Fencing/ Scr�ing� Landscapin : There is no fencing on the site that
belongs to the church, however, there area several of the residences
whose backyards adjoin the church property who have erected fencing
that is either chain link or wooden. Some properties have left their back
yards open to the church property. No screening has been undertaken by
the church, but some properties that adjoin it have provided screening
with wooden fences. Landscaping currently exists on the church property
some near the front of the building and some around the building. Other
landscaping exists in the form of a grassy area to the north and some
trees.
Some additional landscaping and screening is required under the zoning
ordinance which requires that a 3 /z to 6'/z foot high vegetative screen be
created with a parking area for over four vehicles or is adjacent to a
residential zone. Hence, the expansion of the parking lot on the west side
of the church will need to provide screening as described above along the
west boundary between the parking lot and the residences. This has been
anticipated by the church and the new screening hedge is indicated on the
site plan.
e. Siva=: There is an existing sign within a landscaped area near the
center of the lot along Northridge Drive along with a cross. The sign is a
tasteful, low profile wooden signs that blends well with the church
building, landscaping and the neighborhood. No additional signage is
proposed.
a. Scboolc: This church is within the boundaries of School District #5. No
impact on the school district can be anticipated as a result of the
proposed expansion. No school is proposed or currently operates in
conjunction with the church.
b. Parks and Recreation: Northridge Park is in close proximity to the church.
It is unlikely that there will be any significant impacts to the parks or the
Kalispell Parks and Recreation Department associated with the proposed
expansion. A play area is established on the church property that will be
located to the north of the existing building and is indicated on the site
plan.
4
C. Police: This facility is currently served by the Kalispell Police Department.
No increased impacts to the police can be anticipated as a result of the
proposed expansion.
d. Fire Protection: Fire protection is currently provided by the Kalispell Fire
Department. There are hydrants currently in the area with one located
near the west entrance. At the time of building plan review, the building
will be reviewed for compliance with the Uniform Fire Code. Access to the
site and the building are good and it does not appear that any
modifications to the proposed site layout would be necessary to
accommodate the fire department's needs. Additional hydrants,
sprinkling of the building or construction methods and materials may be
used collectively to address the needs related to the fire code.
e. Water: City water currently serves the church, and no significant impact
on water services provided by the City can be anticipated as result of this
expansion.
£ Sewer: Sewer service is currently provided by the City of Kalispell.
Insignificant impacts on City sewer services can be anticipated as a result
of the proposed expansion.
g. Solid Waste: Solid waste pick-up is currently provided by the City. The
refuse containers are stored in the courtyard and moved to the street for
pick-up as necessary. No significant increased impacts can be anticipated
as a result of the proposed expansion.
h. Roads: Access to the property is currently provided to the site from the
existing accesses from Northridge Drive. Roadways in the area are
adequate to accommodate the expansion.
i. Immed� iat�ghborhood Tm a t: The general character of this
neighborhood is single-family residential with very little, if any, other non-
residential uses in the immediate area. There are limited hours of
operation and occupancy associated with this church because it does not
operate as a school, pre-school or day care. Church services plus
occasional special events such as weddings and funerals might create
peak traffic times that are not typical of its day-to-day operations. The
church expansion will not have significant impacts on the neighborhood
with regard to noise or hours of operation and will not have a negative
impact on the character of the area.
A notice of public hearing was mailed to property owners within 150 feet of the subject
property approximately 15 days prior to the hearing. There have been no comments
either in favor or in opposition at the time of writing this staff report.
s
1. The size and location of the site is adequate to accommodate the proposed
expansion of the church.
2. The design of the site with regard to access, parking, location of the building, and
setbacks is in compliance with the zoning and design standards of the City.
3. Existing public services and facilities are adequate to accommodate the proposed
use.
4. No significant impacts to the neighborhood can be anticipated as a result of the
expansion of the church.
It is recommended that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board adopt staff report
#KCU-02-6 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the
conditional use permit be granted subject to the following conditions:
1. That the proposal will be developed in substantial conformance with the
approved site plan which shall govern the location of the buildings and access.
2. That City of Kalispell Building Department and the Kalispell Fire Department
shall review and approve the building plans and fire suppression system for
compliance with the applicable building and fire codes.
3. That drainage plan utilizing on -site detention methods shall be reviewed and
approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department.
4. That consideration be given to the installation of a sidewalk along Northridge
Drive that is separated by a five foot landscape buffer between the sidewalk and
the curb.
S. This permit is valid for a period of 18 months after which time it will terminate if
commencement of authorized activity has not begun. Activity can be
demonstrated by a continuous, good faith effort to secure financing, permits,
engineering and design.

Attachment to Conditional Use Permit Application
Northridge Lutheran Church Expansion
a. Traffic flow and control.
The traffic to the site and within the site will remain substantially the same as it is
now with the exception that 31 additional parking spaces will be provided on the west
portion of the parking lot.
b. Access to and circulation within the property.
The vehicular access and circulation remain the same as existing.
c. Off - street parking and loading.
The West parking lot will be expanded to accommodate 25 required plus 6 extra for
a total of 31 additional cars with the handicapped spaces added and redistributed
as shown. Off - street loading areas are not necessary for this use.
d. Refuse and service areas.
The solid waste disposal will continue to use the city black cans and they will be
located near the northwest of the outdoor storage building.
e. Utilities.
The existing utilities will be expanded to meet the requirements of the expansion.
f. Screening and buffering.
Northridge Lutheran Church will plant a hedge that will provide a buffer and will act
like a screen between the expanded parking area and the residential neighbors.
g. Signs, yards and other open spaces.
The existing church sign will remain as it is. The front of the church will remain as is
with no changes planned for the front yard as shown in the attached drawings. The
side and rear yards are significantly larger than the minimum and therefore provides
a major amount of open space to buffer the church use from the adjacent residential
uses.
h. Height, bulk and location of structures.
The maximum building height for the fellowship area will be less than 30 feet and the
height of other areas will be approximately 14 feet high to match the existing. The
maximum allowable height is 35 feet. The lot coverage is less than 17% and the
zoning allowable lot coverage is 401/o. The proposed expansion is considerably less
than the allowable bulk and dimensional requirements stated in the zoning ordinance.
i. Location of proposed open space uses
The use of open space will be primarily in the northeast near the fellowship area
where the exterior patio, playground and columbarium will be located. This is also
the area that is the furthest from the adjoining residential uses.
Hours and manner of operation.
The hours of operation are normally 8:00 AM tot 0:00 PM and used primarily for
worship and meetings. The church uses beyond these parameters will be an
exception and with the distance to the residential uses provides a buffer to minimize
disruption to the neighborhood.
k. Noise , light, dust, odors, fumes and vibration.
Noise generated by the church is most often contained within the building. The
parking lot lighting will be installed to minimize the impact to the neighborhood. The
church will not generate dust, odors, fumes and vibrations.
