02. Ordinance 1385 - Text Amendment - Parking Standards - 1st ReadingFlathead Regional Development Office 723 5th Avenue East - Room 414 Kalispell, Montana 59901 Phone: (406) 758-5980 Fax: (406) 758-5781 REPORT TO: Kalispell Mayor and City Council FROM: Narda A. Wilson, Senior Planner Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager SUBJECT: Kalispell Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment - Northwest Health Care / The Summit MEETING DATE; July 2, 2001 BACKGROUND: The applicants are proposing to amend Section 27.26.030(e)(2), Parking in the front and side corner setbacks, of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. The applicants are proposing to amend this section to include the H-1, Health Care, zone along with the B-1, B-2, B-3 and B-J'zoning district which allows vehicles to park within five feet of the front and side corner lot lines. Additionally, to allow parking in the side yard setback as long as a sight obscuring fence or landscaping is constructed along the side lot line unless it is next to a parking lot. This request is for an amendment to the parking standards to include the H-1 zone with the commercial zones that allows parking in the front and side corner setback area within five feet of the property boundary. Currently the parking standards do not allow parking in the front or side corner setbacks in the H-1 zone. The Summit health center is located in the H-1 zone and is interested in the amendment because it will allow them to provide an additional tier of parking along Meridian Road. This district allows a mix of office, residential and health care related uses. Currently the area around Kalispell Regional Medical Center is the only area within the Kalispell zoning jurisdiction that has the H-1, Health Care, zoning designation. The area around the hospital has taken on a decidedly commercial character with the residential components generally limited to the assisted living facilities, retirement homes, nursing homes and the small single family area along Buffalo Hill Drive which has been slated for rezoning. The Buffalo Commons PUD was intended as a mixed use area with the office uses located in closer proximity to the hospital and the highway. The area has developed with a large bank facility, medical offices and clinics as well as some limited single family and multi -family residences. The Summit is an approximately 83,000 square foot facility that was intended to provide a variety of health care services such as physical and occupational therapy, nutritional counseling as well as a fitness center with pool, track, exercise equipment and other activities. The construction of the Summit health facility has also increased the activity, construction and traffic in the immediate area. All of the activity and growth in this area of Kalispell has created an area of the community that can be generally described as a mixed -use character with residential element. This mixed -use character has created an area more oriented towards office Providing Community Planning Assistance To: • Flathead County • City of Columbia Falls • City of Kalispell • City of Whitefish ig .4 s Memo to Council on Text Amendment June 19, 2001 Page 2 type uses and decided commercial within the hospital core area. The growth and activity in the area has placed an increased strain and demand on parking immediately around and within close proximity of the hospital, Summit and medical offices. Essentially this amendment would be taking the quasi -residential standard of not allowing parking in the front and side comer setbacks and replacing it with a more commercial standard. The residential standard requires the additional setback, separation and buffering between the uses and the road with consideration of the predominately residential uses in mind. The commercial standard places less value on setbacks, buffering, green spaces and mitigation of impacts that the residential standards because they are typically in an area with more intensive uses that anticipate increased traffic, noise and activity. In this situation there may be merit to consideration of allowing a loosening of the standard considering the character of the area and the increased intensity of the uses within and around the hospital. Additionally, parking has become a primary concern for the area as a whole. A change in the standard would provide the potential for increasing the parking availability in the area without acquiring additional land(s). The Kalispell City -County Planning Board held a public hearing at their regular meeting of June 12, 2001 and discussed the proposal. They voted unanimously to forward a recommendation to the Kalispell City Council to approve the amendment to include the H-1 zone in Section 27.26.030(e)(2), to allow parking in the front and side corner setbacks. RECOMMENDATION: A motion to adopt the ordinance on first reading would be appropriate. FISCAL EFFECTS: Potentially minor positive effects. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the city council. 7 [� Narda A. Wilson Chris A.

NORTHWEST HEALTH An amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance proposed by CARE ZONING TEXT Northwest Health Care for the Summit to amend parking AMENDMENT standards for the H-1 zone to allow parking in the front and side corner setbacks. STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson, of the Flathead Regional Development Office, gave a presentation on staff report KZTA-01-06, a request for an amendment to Section 27.26.030(e)(2), Parking in the front and side yard setbacks, of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance.

Additionally, to allow parking in the side yard setback as long as a sight obscuring fence or landscaping is constructed along the side lot line unless it is next to a parking lot. Wilson reviewed the findings of fact and statutory criteria, thus recommending the Kalispell City -County Planning Board adopt the findings and recommend that the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance be amended to include the H-1 zone to allow parking in the front and side corner setbacks.

KALISPELL BUILDING, An amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance proposed by LLC ZONING TEXT Kalispell Building, LLC to amend the permitted uses in the I-1 AMENDMENT zoning district to include a "restricted retail" category. STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson, of the Flathead Regional Development Office, gave a presentation on staff report KZTA-01-05, a proposed text amendment to the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance that will include a new category of permitted uses under Section 27.18.020, Permitted Uses, I-1, Light Industrial, of "retail restricted". Additionally, a definition of "retail restricted" will be added to the regulations. Wilson reviewed the statutory criteria and recommended adoption of the findings of fact and the definition described in the attached exhibit. Pierce asked if it was for a specific property or just in general. Wilson answered that it was intended for a specific property, but it would serve a general purpose. Wilson stated that David Greer, a local land use consultant, assisted the applicants in coming up with the idea of a retail restricted use. Wilson said theirs was a broad category of retail restricted uses and they were hoping this would make life easier for everyone. Pierce asked if it was specifically the Westmont Tractor property and Wilson said, yes. APPLICANTS / No one wished to speak. AGENCIES PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak on the proposal. PROPONENTS Charles Lapp, 3230 Columbia Falls Stage, said they run Alpine Auction Services on Kelly Road and they have several acres of property they are looking at developing. He said they were not in the City, but were facing annexation. They are currently zoned County I-1. He stated they were in favor of the proposal from the standpoint that over the past 6 years there was one person who would have leased if they would build them a building, but they didn't qualify because of the restrictions of the zoning. He said that anytime it opened up to more uses for the property it made it a lot easier for people to set up businesses and they wouldn't have to go to a spec location.

A public hearing has been scheduled before the Kalispell City -County Planning Board for June 12, 2001 beginning at 7:00 PM. The planning board will forward a recommendation to the city council for final action. The applicants are proposing to amend the parking standards of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance to include the H-1, Health Care, zone allowing some parking in the setback areas. This amendment could affect all properties in the H-1 zoning district. B.

Leichti 1325 Hwy. 2 West, Suite A Kalispell, MT 59901 (406) 755-1333 B. Area Effected by the Proposed Changes: Any area within the Kalispell zoning jurisdiction that is zoned or will be zoned H-1, Health Care, could be affected by the proposed changes. C. Proposed Amendments: The applicants are proposing to amend Section 27.26.030(e)(2), Parking in the front and side yard setbacks, of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. The applicants are proposing to amend this section to include the H-1, Health Care, zone along with the B-1, B-2, B-3 and B-4 zoning district which allows vehicles to park within five feet of the front and side corner lot lines. Additionally, to allow parking in the side yard setback as long as a sight obscuring fence or landscaping is constructed along the side lot line unless it is next to a parking lot. D. Staff Discussion: This request is for an amendment to the parking standards to include the H-1 zone with the commercial zones that allows parking in the front and side corner setback area within five feet of the property boundary. Currently the parking standards do not allow parking in the front or side comer setbacks in the H-1 zone. The Summit health center is located in the H-1 zone and is interested in the amendment because it will allow them to provide an additional tier of parking along Meridian Road. The intent of the Health Care zone is "intended to provide hospital facilities and supportive services for the care of the sick, elderly and distraught. The zone is not intended to serve the general retail or overnight accommodations needs of the general public." Uses listed as permitted uses in the zone include medical and dental clinic along with provisional offices and single family and duplex dwellings. Conditionally permitted uses include additional more high intensity uses such hospitals, retirement and other group home residences as well as some limited retail and restaurant uses. This district allows a mix of office, residential and health care related uses. Currently the area around Kalispell Regional Medical Center is the only area within the Kalispell zoning jurisdiction that has the H-1, Health Care, zoning designation. The area around the hospital has taken on a decidedly commercial character with the residential components generally limited to the assisted living facilities, retirement homes, nursing homes and the small single family area along Buffalo Hill Drive which has been slated for rezoning. The Buffalo Commons PUD was intended as a mixed use area with the office uses located in closer proximity to the hospital and the highway. The area has developed with a large bank facility, medical offices and clinics as well as some limited single family and multi -family residences. The Summit is an approximately 83,000 square foot facility that was intended to provide a variety of health care services such as physical and occupational therapy, nutritional counseling as well as a fitness center with pool, track, exercise equipment and other activities. The construction of the Summit health facility has also increased the activity, construction and traffic in the immediate area. Kalispell Regional Medical Center has undergone a major review of the master plan for expanding the hospital. This includes the realignment of Sunnyview Lane, upgrades to the administrative and patient section of the hospital, a new outpatient clinic and other major renovations. It is anticipated that the improvements will take place over a period of five to 20 years. All of the activity and growth in this area of Kalispell has created an area of the community that can be generally described as a mixed -use character with residential element. This mixed -use character has created an area more oriented towards office type uses and decided commercial within the hospital core area. The growth and activity in the area has placed an increased strain and demand on parking immediately around and within close proximity of the hospital, Summit and medical offices. Essentially this amendment would be taking the quasi -residential standard of not allowing parking in the front and side corner setbacks and replacing it with a more commercial standard. The residential standard requires the additional setback, separation and buffering between the uses and the road with consideration of the predominately residential uses in mind. The commercial standard places less value on setbacks, buffering, green spaces and mitigation of impacts that the residential standards because they are typically in an area with more intensive uses that anticipate increased traffic, noise and activity. In this situation there may be merit to consideration of allowing a loosening of the standard considering the character of the area and the increased intensity of the uses within and around the hospital. Additionally, parking has become a primary concern for the area as a whole. A change in the standard would provide the potential for increasing the parking availability in the area without acquiring additional land(s). 2 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. The Kalispell City -County Master Plan recognizes the hospital area as a distinct and unique component of the community. The health care zone is a reflection of the master planned area around the hospital for health related uses and activities. The amendment to the parking standards to allow parking in the front and side corner setbacks will increase the intensity of the uses in the area. The master plan anticipates this area as a regional medical center with a high intensity of service oriented uses. This amendment would substantially comply with the goals and policies of the master plan. The proposed amendment will not generally have an affect on congestion in the streets since the types and intensity of uses will not be changed. The allowing of higher density use of the parking lots may increase the overall amount of traffic within the specific parcel. 3. Will the requested zone secure caf Y from fire panic and other dangers? This amendment is intended to increase the efficiency of land within an area that has uses, which are not as intensive as commercially zoned areas. The amendment would not affect the healthy, safety or increase the risk to the general public. .- -. - -. ....• . ....GRIUAN4- . .... •-.- -I mm The proposed text amendment will serve the general welfare by providing for a safe and efficient use of land to accommodate the parking needs of the business and the patron. This change will not affect the size and number of buildings constructed in the H-1 zone, but will allow for the more efficient use of land. The development standards of the zoning district would dictate the height and size of buildings and their setbacks. This change would increase the number of vehicles in a parking lot, but would not result in the overcrowding of land or the undue concentration of people in one area over another. . - - • - - . IMUMMA111111 1.1 -1 1 . - .. - . - . • .. . ... . • r . Luigi.•. ,.. 11511 IMWSM 81 WOMMOMMMMM9 This text amendment would not effect the facilitation of public services or utilities since all of the uses will be constructed in accordance with the required building, safety and other application regulations. �. . .. , - .. .. . . ..a fird .- The purpose of the text amendment is to specifically address the parking standards of the H-1 zone and to treat it in a more commercial than residential manner. Considering the types and intensity of uses in the H-1 zone it appears to be appropriate that they should be treated as the more intensively developed zoning districts. The character of the H-1 zoning districts is intended to be comprised of uses that complement the health care field such as office, therapists, clinics, extended care facilities and others. The development in the H-1 zone has been of a relatively high intensity placing increased demands on the need for parking and the efficient utilization of lands. Allowing parking in the front and side corner setbacks appears to give reasonable consideration to the character of the district and consistent with the types and intensity of uses in the district. The proposed text amendment will conserve the value of building by encouraging compatible and complementary uses that are currently recognized in the district and providing for the efficient and cost effective use of the land with adequate consideration for other uses anticipated nearby. The proposed amendment would encourage a more efficient use of the land without compromising the compatibility and complementary uses allowed within the H-1 district. This amendment would generally encourage the most appropriate use of land throughout the planning jurisdiction. 4 Staff recommends that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board adopt FRDO staff report KZTA-01-5 as findings of fact and, based on these findings, recommend to the Kalispell City Council that the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance be amended to include the H-1 zone in Section 27.26.030(e)(2), to allow parking in the front and side yard setbacks.
