SUBJECT Dale W. Haarr, et al, Zone Change -H-1 to R-3 Buffalo Hill Drive
MEETING DATE: July 2, 2001
BACKGROUND: Several properties are proposed for rezoning located on the east
and west sides of Buffalo Hill Drive in the northern part of Kalispell between the
hospital and Buffalo Hill Golf Course. The combined total of the properties contain
approximately 3.10 acres. The existing zoning is H-1, a Health Care zone which is
intended to provide hospital facilities and supportive services for the community and to
provide an area for higher density uses such as nursing homes and apartment
development. This zoning district allows offices, medical and dental clinics, pharmacies
and other medical and therapy related uses. It also allows single family and duplexes
as permitted uses and multi -family along with other group living facilities such as
nursing homes and retirement homes as conditionally permitted uses. The H-1 zone
requires a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet for all newly created lots plus an
additional 1,500 square feet for each additional dwelling beyond a duplex. The setbacks
for this zone are 20 feet in the front rear and side corner and 10 feet on the sides.
The applicants are requesting a zone change to R-3, a Residential zone that is
exclusively a single family zone with the exception of limited number of non-
residential uses that would be considered under the conditional use permit process
such as schools, churches and day care centers. The minimum lot size requirement
for the zone is 7,000 square feet for all newly created lots. The setbacks for the zone
are 20 feet in the front, rear and side corner and five feet on the sides.
The property owners are concerned about the intrusion of non-residential uses in an
area that is currently comprised exclusively of single family homes. Rather than placing
restrictions on the property through the use of covenants, the applicants have chosen
to rezone the property thereby providing even greater assurance that non-residential
would be excluded and the residential uses would be maintained in the area.
The Kalispell City -County Planning Board held a public hearing at their regular
meeting of June 12, 2001 and unanimously recommended that the city council
approve the zone change from H-1, Health Care, to R-3, Residential. There was one
abstention on the vote because the board members' mother was a petitioner in the
zone change request.

Drive and containing approximately 3.10 acres.
MEMBER REMOVED Rob Heinecke stepped down from the board due to a conflict of
interest.
STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson, of the Flathead Regional Development Office,
gave a presentation on staff report KZC-01-, a proposed zone
change from H-1, a Health Care zone. H-1 is intended to
provide hospital facilities and supportive services for the
community and to provide an area for higher density residential
uses such as nursing homes and apartment development to R-
3, a Residential zone that is exclusively a single family zone
with the exception of a limited number of non-residential uses
that would be considered under the conditional use permit
process such as schools, churches and day care center. The
minimum lot size requirement for the zone is 7,000 square feet
for all newly created lots. The setbacks for the zone are 20 feet
in the front, rear and side corner and 5 feet on the sides.
Wilson reviewed the findings of fact and statutory criteria, thus
recommending approval of the request zone change.
Hines asked and Wilson clarified the total charge was $400 and
each applicant paid their share of that
APPLICANTS / Margie Simpson, 55 Buffalo Hill, stated that all of the homes
AGENCIES were there when the hospital was built and it was originally
residential. She noted that the rezoning of the hospital put it
into the H-1. Simpson stated they were originally residential
and would like to return to being residential.
PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak
on the proposal.
PROPONENTS Rob Heinecke, 206 Ponderosa, spoke in support of the zone
change. He noted concern over the traffic of the H-1 district.
Heinecke stated the character of the neighborhood was
residential and he hoped to protect the integrity of the
neighborhood by returning it to residential. He urged the
support of the board for the sake of his mother, who lives there.
No one wished to speak and the public hearing was closed.

TRINITY LUTHERAN A conditional use permit by Trinity Lutheran School to allow
SCHOOL CONDITIONAL the expansion of their existing school by approximately 10,780
USE PERMIT square feet on property zoned R-3 located at 495 Fifth Avenue
WN.
STAFF REPORT Narda Wilson, of the Flathead Regional Development Office,
gave a presentation on staff report KCU-01-2, a request for a
conditional use permit to allow the expansion of the Trinity
Lutheran School. The expansion would include five new
classrooms and a library to replace the makeshift classrooms
that currently exist in the school gymnasium. The addition
would be located between the existing classroom and the
gymnasium on property that is currently a lawn area. The
addition would be approximately 98 feet by 110 feet for a total
of approximately 10,780 square feet. The property is zoned R-
3, a Residential zoning which lists schools as a conditionally
permitted use. Wilson reviewed the findings of fact and
recommended the request for a conditional use permit be
granted subject to conditions listed in the report.
APPLICANTS / Ken Miller, with Architects Northwest, said they provided the
AGENCIES preliminary design for the project. Miller referred to a floor plan
scheme and explained the proposed 5 classrooms. He said they
were not new classrooms, they were just taking them out of the
gymnasium. They were proposing a new library and computer
area, which was currently in the loft, additional toilet facilities,
and would be remodeling a few areas into office spaces.
Essentially, he said, they were providing for inadequate classes
that were taking place in the gym. The scheme also showed a
possible future expansion.
PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak
on the proposal.
PROPONENTS David Hobus, Principal of Trinity Lutheran School, stated they
had been in existence for 43 years and during that time the
school had experienced growth. An enrollment of 240 is what
they currently serve. Over the years they were forced to expand
into their current facilities and the expansion was an attempt to
eliminate inadequate classrooms. In addition, he said it would

B. Location and Size: The properties proposed for rezoning are located on the east
and west sides of Buffalo Hill Drive in the northern part of Kalispell between the
hospital and Buffalo Hill Golf Course. The combined total of the properties
contain approximately 3.10 acres. The properties can be described as Assessor's
Tracts 6EC, 6EA, 6EE, 6CB, 6CD, Lot 1 Harmon Addition and Lots 1 through 5
Highland Park, Golf Course 2nd Addition located in Section 6, Township 28 North,
Range 21 West, P.M.M.
C. Existing zoning: The existing zoning is H-1, a Health Care zone which is intended
to provide hospital facilities and supportive services for the community and to
provide an area for higher density uses such as nursing homes and apartment
development. This zoning district allows offices, medical and dental clinics,
pharmacies and other medical and therapy related uses. It also allows single family
and duplexes as permitted uses and multi -family along with other group living
facilities such as nursing homes and retirement homes as conditionally permitted
uses. The H-1 zone requires a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet for all newly
created lots plus an additional 1,500 square feet for each additional dwelling
beyond a duplex. The setbacks for this zone are 20 feet in the front rear and side
corner and 10 feet on the sides.
D. Proposed Zoning: The applicants are requesting a zone change to R-3, a
Residential zone that is exclusively a single family zone with the exception of
limited number of non-residential uses that would be considered under the
conditional use permit process such as schools, churches and day care centers.
The minimum lot size requirement for the zone is 7,000 square feet for all newly
created lots. The setbacks for the zone are 20 feet in the front, rear and side
corner and five feet on the sides.
The property owners are concerned about the intrusion of non-residential uses in
an area that is currently comprised exclusively of single family homes. Rather than
placing restrictions on the property through the use of covenants, the applicants
have chosen to rezone the property thereby providing even greater assurance that
non-residential would be excluded and the residential uses would be maintained in
the area.
E. Existing Land Use: All of the properties proposed for rezoning have single family
dwellings currently located on the property. These land uses will not change as a
result of the change in zoning.
F. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning: The properties located to the west of the area
proposed for rezoning are all generally related to hospital and office use with the
exception of the Salvation Army. The golf course lies to the east and the nursing
homes lies to the south. The hospital and townhomes he to the north.

H. Relation to zoning requirements: All of the properties proposed for rezoning
would comply with the minimum lot size and lot width requirements of the
proposed R-3 zoning. The properties are developed, so there is little or no potential
for additional subdivision and development of the property in a manner that would
comply with the development standards of the R-3 zoning district. Under the
current H-1 zoning more intensive development of the properties could occur.
The statutory basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by 76-2-303 and 76-2-
305, M.C.A. The application is evaluated in accordance with the zoning criteria described
by 76-3-304, M.C.A.
WT9TMGWOT6_9T*1 PAMAIUMMOA Fmrjm W,.
This property is within the boundaries of the Kalispell City -County Master Plan
which designates this area primarily as Urban Residential or as a transition area
between the Medical / Professional area to the west. The proposed rezoning is in
compliance with the land use designation for this area.
Access to the property is suitable for R-3 zoning as this property is located on a
street that dead -ends to the north. The water tower lies at the end of the roadway,
Buffalo Hill Drive, and there is limited potential for the extension of the road. The
rezoning would not result in an increase in traffic or congestion as the properties
would all remain residential rather than other uses permitted under the current H-
1.
sTarimmmrx, WZr@rJ-TrX4FrWRr4-%;Z..leT. GOMM.. . ...•
Access, fire suppression and circulation in the area are adequate to secure the area
from fire, panic and other dangers, which might compromise the safety of the
public. No unusual impacts of the rezoning on public safety or emergency services
are anticipated. No new construction is anticipated since all of the properties are
currently developed with single family homes.
. . . . . . . IM .... . al KaiI I RIM U= . - . . .. • - . - -
The rezoning would provide assurances to the property owners along Buffalo Hill
Drive that the residential integrity of this area would be maintained and would not
be eroded by the expansion of non-residential uses currently allowed in the current
H-1 zoning. No impacts on public health or general welfare are anticipated.
No significant impact is anticipated on light and air since the properties are
generally fully developed, providing light and air between buildings.
The rezoning will prevent the gradual expansion of the office -type uses within the
immediate area. The change from H-1 to R-3 will preclude any development of
these properties other than residential uses and closes the area to any type of
commercial or office uses currently allowed thereby reducing the intensity of uses
in the area.
IEMM.. .- ..-. . O .. . . .... ..
All public services and facilities are available to this area and are in place such as
fire protection, police protection, schools, parks and recreation and suitable street
access. The change from H-1 to R-3 would be a decrease in the potential intensity of
the land uses in the area. The available infrastructure and public services are
adequate to accommodate existing development.
This area is suitable to an exclusive residentially zoned area as proposed under the
R-3 zoning. This area is prime residential property because of its location near the
Buffalo Hill Golf Course and the views it offers, because it is on a quiet street and
because of its general proximity to services in the area.
The character of this area is uniquely residential in an area that has grown around
it with generally non-residential uses. The golf course has afforded a high degree of
protection from the intrusion of the non-residential uses, which borders the
properties on the east side of Buffalo Hill Drive on three sides. The character of this
area is distinctly residential with a great deal of appeal in its present state. The
rezoning gives reasonable consideration to the unique residential character of this
neighborhood and the rezoning is appropriate to maintain the residential integrity
of the area.
�yNIiInSTT.TWT.T.=.I.. .. -.- . -. .•
The property owners are concerned with maintaining the residential integrity of
their neighborhood and the value of their homes for residential purposes. The
rezoning of the property from H-1 to R-3 will provide them with the assurances that
non-residential uses will not be allowed and that the value of their properties for
residential purposes will be maintained.
MEN ON A.
. . ..
The rezoning would be in compliance with the land use map designation of "Urban
Residential' on the existing plan map and will provide the property owners with
assurances that the intrusion of non-residential uses will be prevented in their
neighborhood. The neighborhood provides a unique residential niche to the
property owners along Buffalo Hill Drive and has amenities that are most desirable
for residential purposes such as the golf course location, the view and quiet
neighborhood street. This zone change encourages the most appropriate use of the
land for this area and throughout the planning and zoning jurisdiction.
Staff recommends that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission
adopt FRDO staff report KZC-01-1 as findings of fact and recommend approval of the
requested zone change from H-1, Health Care, to R-3, Residential.
