Second Reading for an Initial R-2 Zoning Upon Annexation -
Jeffrey C. Meerkatz
July 16, 2001
BACKGROUND: The property proposed for annexation and an initial zoning
designation of City R-2, Residential, is located on the west side of South Woodland
Drive and North of Kelly Road in the southeast part of Kalispell. The property is a
0.60-acre parcel. Currently this property is located in the County zoning jurisdiction
and is zoned R-2. The applicants are proposing City R-2, a Residential zoning district
which has a minimum lot size requirement of 9,600 square.
On July 2, 2001 the city council approved the proposed zoning of R-2 upon
annexation during the first reading. On June 12, 2001 the Kalispell City -County
Planning Board held a public hearing and unanimously recommended that the initial
zoning for this property should be R-2, Residential, upon annexation.
RECOMMENDATION: A motion to adopt the second reading of the ordinance for R-2
zoning upon annexation would be in order.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Minor positive impacts once developed.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the city council.
