Tri-City Planning Office 17 Second Street East - Suite 211 Kalispell, Montana 59901 Phone: (406) 751-1850 Fax: (406) 751-1858 tricity@centurytel.net REPORT TO: Kalispell Mayor and City Council FROM: Narda A. Wilson, Senior Planner Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager SUBJECT Annexation and Initial PUD Zoning - DNRC Section 36 MEETING DATE: October 1, 2001 BACKGROUND: The Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) has requested annexation into the City of Kalispell and an initial zoning designation of B-5, Commercial / Industrial, R-5, Residential / Professional Office, and R-4, Residential, with a Planned Unit Development (PUD), overlay on approximately 454.4 acres otherwise known as Section 36. The State DNRC manages this property as part of the State School Trust and is interested in developing it in accordance with the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan and the planning objectives for the property. The property is located on the west side of US Hwy 93 with Four Mile Drive on the south, West Reserve Drive on the north and Stillwater Road on the west. The PUD addresses the development of four land use areas identified on the section of land which are designated as a specific development pod. A Mixed Commercial POD is identified on the area adjacent to US Hwy 93 between the Hwy 93 Bypass alignment and the center section line that contains approximately 118 acres. A Mixed Professional POD is identified for the area located in the north half of the section, north and west of the US Hwy 93 Bypass alignment which contains approximately 184 acres. A Mixed Residential POD is proposed for the area in the southwest quarter of the section which contains approximately 152 acres. The Youth Athletic Complex generally occupies the southeast quarter of the section and was previously annexed into the city of Kalispell during its initial development phase. The property proposed for annexation contains a total of 454.4 acres. Prior to developing the annexation and PUD proposal, the Montana Department of Natural Resources was subject to the Montana Environmental Protection Act (MEPA) which included the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to analyze alternative plans for the school section. The EIS analyzed the impacts related to traffic, water and sewer facilities and mitigation needs. Certain elements of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan were modified as a result of the MEPA process and the adopted Record of Decision. The details of the MEPA process resultant changes are included in the project narrative. The changes as a result of the MEPA process include a preference for the development of high-tech industries as opposed to general commercial and a provision for an elementary school and high school. The proposed zoning and PUD is in substantial compliance with the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan and furthers its goals and polices. Providing Community Planning Assistance To: • City of Kalispell • City of Columbia Falls • City of Whitefish DNRC Annexation and Initial Zoning September 20, 2001 Page 2 Part of the final analysis included the concept of a PUD overlay with City zoning for implementation of the plan. A PUD for the site was developed to the greatest extend possible and has been filed concurrently with the annexation request and will be considered the initial zoning of the property upon annexation to the city of Kalispell. The Kalispell Zoning Ordinance requires a public hearing before the planning board and the city council as part of the PUD process. The Kalispell City -County Planning Board held a public hearing at their regular meeting of September 11, 2001. A motion passed on a vote of six in favor and two opposed to forward a recommendation that initial zoning for this property should be the proposed zoning with a PUD overlay. The zoning ordinances states that the city council has 60 days after receiving the recommendation from the planning board to hold a public hearing on the PUD. A resolution annexing the property and a resolution of intent to hold a public hearing should be passed by the council. After holding the public hearing, the first reading of the ordinance adopting the zoning and the PUD could be passed with consideration given to the comments presented at the public hearing. Subsequent to the public hearing and adoption of the first reading, the development agreement would be finalized and a second reading adopting the zoning and PUD would be in order. A submittal package has been given to the council and the interim city attorney for review that includes a petition to annex, development agreement, site plan designating the development pods and a narrative overview of the process undertaken by the DNRC. RECOMMENDATION: A motion to adopt the resolution annexing the property and a resolution of intent to hold a public hearing to consider the proposed PUD would be in order. FISCAL EFFECTS: Minor positive impacts once developed. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the city council. (� Narda A. Wilson Chris A.

Box 1997 Kalispell, MT 59903 Re: Annexation and Initial PUD Zoning - DNRC Section 36 Dear Chris: The Kalispell City -County Planning Board met on September 11, 2001, and held a public hearing to consider a request by the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) for annexation and initial zoning on property located on the west side of Hwy 93 between Four Mile Drive and West Evergreen Drive. The applicants are proposing a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay on three development "pods" containing approximately 454 acres. The proposed zoning and PUD overlay is intended to reflect and implement the goals and polices of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. Tom Jentz representing the Tri-City Planning Office, presented staff report KA-01-4, evaluating the proposed zoning. He noted that this proposal is one more step in the implementation of the development plan for the property. He noted that the southeast quarter of the section was annexed to the City with the ballfield development and this annexed the rest of the section. At the public hearing David Green, representing DNRC, spoke in favor of the proposal. He noted the State had completed the MEPA process and there was substantial information available on the future needs of the infrastructure. The first project that was being considered was a high-tech business park which would require subdivision review. After the public hearing the board discussed the proposal, taking into consideration the neighborhood plan for the property. A motion was made and passed on a vote of six in favor and two opposed that the that initial zoning for this property should be of B-5, Commercial / Industrial, R-5, Residential / Professional Office, and R-4, Residential, with a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay. Please schedule this matter for the October 1, 2001 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.

DNRC ANNEXATION Ss A request by the Montana Department of Natural Resources and ZONING/ PLANNED Conservation (DNRC) for annexation into the City of Kalispell and UNIT DEVELOPMENT an initial zoning designation of B-5, Commercial / Industrial, R-5, Residential / Professional Office, and R-4, Residential, with a Planned Unit Development (PUD), overlay on approximately 454.4 acres otherwise known as Section 36. STAFF REPORT Tom Jentz of the Tri-City Planning Office gave a presentation of staff report #KA-01-4, stating this was a request by the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) for annexation into the City of Kalispell and an initial zoning designation of B-5, Commercial / Industrial, R-5, Residential / Professional Office, and R-4, Residential, with a Planned Unit Development (PUD), overlay on approximately 454.4 acres otherwise known as Section 36. Jentz stated that the State DNRC manages this property as part of the State School Trust and is interested in developing it in accordance with the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan and the planning objectives for the property. Jentz said the applicants were proposing four land use areas on the entire section of land designated as a specific development pod; a Mixed Commercial POD on the area adjacent to US Hwy 93 between the Hwy 93 Bypass alignment and the center section line that contains approximately 118 acres; a Mixed Professional POD for the area located in the north half of the section, north and west of the US Hwy 93 Bypass alignment which contains approximately 184 acres; and a Mixed Residential POD proposed for the area in the southwest quarter of the section that contains approximately 152 acres. Stevens said that according to the staff report the PUD overlay is not in accordance with the Neighborhood Plan. Jentz said David Greer would address that issue Kalispell City -County Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of September 11, 2001 Page 1 of 10 APPLICANT/AGENCIES David Greer, staff planner of the Department of Natural Resources, spoke in favor of the proposal saying the project was started in 1998 and they still had to go through subdivision review. Greer said the project was still being called Section 36 and would like to go on record and have it called the Spring Prairie PUD because the tree that is in the ball field complex is called the Spring Prairie tree. Greer said in 1999 a Neighborhood Plan had been approved, and as part of that plan a memorandum of understanding had been done with the City and County which said that any development that they did would adhere to the City of Kalispell's design standards for roads, water, sewer, etc. and that DNRC would pay both personal and property taxes. Greer said that all improvements on the property would be the responsibility of the lessees. Greer said they were working with Hampstead Partners out of California who are still interested in building a 60-acre tech park and they were trying to move this process along to accommodate that particular development. Greer said the first part of the application was a petition to annex and they were asking for the entire project to be annexed and zoned. Greer said in developing the proposal they had to choose what zoning would be appropriate and that was why they were proposing many performance standards so that this would present a very nice entry to the City of Kalispell. Greer said the City didn't have any zoning classifications that would work and after they had gone through the environmental impact process, it had been suggested that they do it as a PUD overlay. Greer said with the PUD overlay the commercial area would be zoned B-5, which allows hundreds uses, but the PUD restricts it to 19 possible uses instead. Greer said the project would be phased over the next 40-50 years, and they wanted to anticipate future needs. Greer said the school district was interested in one of the sites for a high school and grade school; and they had prioritized technical uses over retail commercial uses. Greer said they would be back before Board to create lease lots which will had to go through subdivision review and at that time they would have another opportunity to review the extension of the infrastructure to the property. Greer said one thing they had learned from the environmental impact statement was that this area north of Kalispell is already water deficient, and as development occurred they would have to compensate for those deficiencies, and sometime in the future they may have to look at having a well and storage stank which would tie into the City water supply system or they may have to develop a community water system to service the needs of Section 36. Kalispell City -County Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of September 11, 2001 Page 2 of 10 Stevens asked if this proposal complied with the adopted plan or the amended plan. Greer said in regard to the deviations from the original neighborhood plan the response from the MEPA was a desire to promote technical industry over retail, so they had prioritized technical industry in one area, and if over the next 40 years there were an opportunity to expand, one area would be held in anticipation of future need. Greer said it was not amending the neighborhood plan because they would not do anything until they received permission to do so. Stevens asked how that philosophy jibed with the enabling act of the Montana State constitution to acquire the full -appraised fair market value of the lands to the School Trust. Greer said the land value would not change whether it was commercial or technical. Stevens said he didn't understand this process because when the master plan is amended with a neighborhood plan, there are a series of public hearings before the Planning Board, the City Council and the County Commissioners, and when they amend a neighborhood plan, there are also public hearings before the same boards and governing bodies. Stevens said the staff report is telling him that there are deviations from the neighborhood plan by virtue of the PUD, and when he read the PUD it was essentially telling him that DNRC's decision for the EIS requires certain modifications to the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. Stevens asked how they were avoiding amending the neighborhood plan with participation by the County Commissioners and that they were doing a PUD before they had a neighborhood plan that would accommodate it. Greer said the staff report meant that the deviations were more restrictive that what had originally been anticipated in the original neighborhood plan. Greer said there was a lot more clarity regarding annexation, the use of City services, and enforcement of architectural control. Greer said the only question was the holding area for future technical uses, but a tech park is only professional offices, and if there was movement into that area, it was at least 10 years away, and if at that time it was necessary to do an amendment to the plan they would. Stevens said it may be more restrictive than the approved plan that the Board recommended approval for and the plan that the County Commissioners approved, but it seemed to him that the School Trust fund was being put on the second burner and that the whole project was designed not to increase revenue to the maximum extent to the School Trust fund, but to meet someone's particular aesthetic designs for that piece of property, and the School Trust fund should have been moved to the first burner. Kalispell City -County Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of September 11, 2001 Page 3 of 10 Greer said with State government and the requirement to do a MEPA analysis, they also had to follow that process which sometimes softens certain intentions to satisfy the State environmental law. Greer said if the tech was successful they wanted to make sure that they had an opportunity for it to proceed, and that after five years it wasn't successful, then the original retail and commercial will be allowed to go in. Greer said another threshold was that if the tech meets the 40,000 thousand square foot allowance and then it stops so that noting happens between years 5 & 10, then the original mixed commercial and retail will go back in. Stevens said page 7 of the PUD said the Section 36 neighborhood plan adopted in 1999 was modified by the record of decision. Stevens said that contrary to the MOU and everything they had been told before that they could unilaterally modify a neighborhood plan, that they didn't have to go before the Commissioners or the regular process of amending the master plan like every one else had to do. Stevens said he finds that disturbing in the sense that when the process first started it was to include every body, and they were now evading the Commissioners involvement. Stevens said page 4 says essentially the same thing. Stevens said at this point in the hearing process he would vote against it because a neighborhood plan should be recommended by the Commissioners and Council and this was circumventing the system. Greer said there was no difference in the plan, it was being restricted even further than it was previously. Greer said the uses were allowed in the adopted plan, and they were only prioritizing them now. Stevens asked if DNRC paid rent. Greer said the EIS showed that they had been granted that piece years ago as an easement, but they had discovered they occupy a little more land then they had thought so they would have to start paying rent on the land they weren't deeded. Stevens asked if the area designated as a state campus would generate funds to the schools. Greer said anything that went on that piece of ground would have to make some type of payment to the School Trust fund. Greer said if a school went on there, they would buy a permanent easement from them, but they would be a tax-exempt agency and wouldn't pay property taxes, but they would have to pay full market value for the land. Sipe asked how the residential homes would be developed. Greer said they struggled with that through the process because how could they do that if they were leasing land. Greer said they had decided to prioritize that area for exchange so that someone could give them land someplace else in exchange for that land so Kalispell City -County Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of September 11, 2001 Page 4 of 10 that it could go to private ownership and be developed in accordance with this plan. Sipe asked how that would help the School Trust fund. Greer said they would have to get the equivalent value or more somewhere else to compensate the trust. Sipe said it was hard for him to see why anyone would lease state lands when there was so much land in the county, because the banks would not back them, and asked now that it was more restrictive how it would help the School Trust. Greer said they were doing the same in Bozeman and Great Falls and because of the location people were will to lease the land. Greer said it didn't work well for residential, which is why they chose to prioritize the southwest quarter for land exchange. Garberg said leasing commercial land was very common in other places and that under the right criteria the banking community would go for a long-term lease. Jeanie Fairbanks, from the Special Uses Bureau in Missoula, stated she was a certified appraiser and spoke in favor of the project saying she believed they could get a fair market value through leasing because the property is not for sale, but the location is right. Fairbanks said it was a financing tool and the location created the market for the state lands. PUBLIC HEARING The public hearing was opened to those who wished to speak on the proposal. PROPONENTS Mayre Flowers, Citizens for a Better Flathead, spoke generally in favor of the plan and commended the DNRC on the thoroughness of the PUD. Flowers said that the additional land that had been set aside for technology should be developed to provide jobs for the community and provide a stable economy. Flowers said in order for this to be successful and if it was appropriate the City and State should work together to recruit the type of economic development to make the plan a success. Flowers said on page 9, Condition #5 referred to the maintenance plan and wanted to be sure there was maintenance for the duration of the development. Flowers said on page 8, Item #5 referenced that the city attorney was to review this document, but she didn't see a letter or any comment from the city the attorney. Flowers said it needed to be reviewed to ensure there were safeguards so there was not another situation like the Valley Dome. Kalispell City -County Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of September 11, 2001 Page 5 of 10 Flowers said on page 9, Condition #8 referred to pedestrian/bike way and she would like to see them included in the recommendation. Flowers said page 6 of the Plan referred to the architectural standards of buildings and asked if there were any plan to put alleys in the development so that the backs of buildings can be buffered from the commercial to the residential. Flowers said page 27 of the Plan references that the sidewalks upon completion will become under ownership of the City and asked if this was normal procedure. Flowers said she feels the plan, especially the residential component, added a much stronger viability to it and she appreciated the process that this has gone through. OPPONENTS Tom Chokovsky, presiding overseer for Valley View Jehovah Witnesses, stated he was not for or against the proposal but did have concerns regarding safety. Chokovsky said their hall was located near the site, and when they had applied in 1992 for a road easement, they had wanted to put their road where the new road is being proposed, and they were told they couldn't because of the safety and clear visibility. Chokovsky said the Plan would provide traffic lights on the other heavily traveled road, but there were no sidewalks on the north side of West Reserve, and they cautioned their people to be careful when they turned into the hall because of the poor visibility. Chokovsky said if visibility was a problem in 1992, then how were they going to handle this additional traffic. Stevens asked who would determine where the access went. Jentz said the road was a state secondary road, and when the access was put in both the State and the County would do a traffic study. Jentz said if it were not the best place for the access, it would be put in the safest place. MOTION Van Natta moved that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board adopt Staff Report #KA-01-4 as fmdings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that upon annexation the property be giving the proposed zoning with a PUD overlay subject to the 11 conditions as outlined. Rice seconded the motion. BOARD DISCUSSION Van Natta said he would vote in support of the project, and that the State had done a wonderful job in analyzing what could and should happen on this land and did not feel that the master plan is being amended inappropriately or that it was even being amended. Van Natta said if the wording in the staff report was wrong perhaps they could amend it. Stevens said the terminology throughout the whole PUD says it deviates from the neighborhood plan and the language is appropriate. Kalispell City -County Planning Board Minutes of the meeting of September 11, 2001 Page 6 of 10 Rice called for the question. ROLL CALL Rice, Garberg, Pierce, Heinecke, Mann, and Van Natta voted aye. Stevens and Sipe voted nay. The motion passed on a 6-2 vote. GLACIER VILLAGE Sipe excused himself from the Board. GREENS PHASE VI AND VII ANNEXATION A request by Glacier Village Greens Inc. for annexation into the city of Kalispell and an initial zoning designation of R-4, Residential, for Phase VI and Phase VII which contain approximately 8.8 acres. STAFF REPORT Tom Jentz of the Tri-City Planning Office gave a presentation of staff report #KA-01-5, stating that the City of Kalispell has initiated the annexation of the two subdivisions that have been final platted as continued development of Glacier Village Greens. Jentz said that a petition for annexation request by Glacier Village Greens Inc. was submitted with the plats as a requirement. Jentz said Glacier Village Greens Phase VI has 21 lots and two parks and contains approximately 4.698 acres and that Glacier Village Greens Phase VII has 17 lots and contains approximately 4.109 acres. Jentz said the applicants were requesting an initial zoning designation of R-4, Residential, for both Phase VI and Phase VII. Jentz said Tom Reese, president of the Homeowners Association had stopped by the office that afternoon and had said some of the property owners were concerned that the parks would become city property. Jentz said he had told Reese the parks will be annexed, but they will still be maintained and managed by the homeowners association. APPLICANTS/AGENCIES George Schultz, applicant, spoke in opposition saying he hadn't been aware until a few days ago that the property was being annexed. Shultz said he hadn't signed anything, that the City was blackmailing them because if they didn't annex they couldn't file the final plat and they wouldn't be able to develop the lots. Van Natta said there was a petition signed by Glacier Village Greens that requested annexation. Schultz said the only thing they signed was the petition to annex, which Duane Bitney had signed because if they didn't the City won't file their plats. Stevens said they had a petition that was signed in 2001 and that it was for Phase 6. Schultz said the City had opted not to annex Phase 6 until Phase 7 was done. Schultz said the staff report says he requested annexation and he didn't ask, he was being made to. Rice asked Schultz why he didn't want the property annexed.

The State DNRC manages this property as part of the State School Trust and is interested in developing it in accordance with the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan and the planning objectives for the property. There are four land use areas identified on the entire section of land designated as a specific development pod. A Mixed Commercial POD is identified on the area adjacent to US Hwy 93 between the Hwy 93 Bypass alignment and the center section line that contains approximately 118 acres. A Mixed Professional POD is identified for the area located in the north half of the section, north and west of the US Hwy 93 Bypass alignment which contains approximately 184 acres. A Mixed Residential POD is proposed for the area in the southwest quarter of the section which contains approximately 152 acres. The Youth Athletic Complex generally occupies the southeast quarter of the section and was previously annexed into the city of Kalispell during its initial development phase. The property proposed for annexation contains a total of 454.4 acres and lies on the west side of US Hwy 93 with Four Mile Drive on the south, West Reserve Drive on the north and Stillwater Road on the west. Page 1 of 9 Prior to developing the annexation and PUD proposal, the Montana Department of Natural Resources was subject to the Montana Environmental Protection Act (MEPA) which included the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to analyze alternative plans for the school section. The EIS analyzed the impacts related to traffic, water and sewer facilities and mitigation needs. Certain elements of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan were modified as a result of the MEPA process and the adopted Record of Decision. The details of the MEPA process resultant changes are included in the project narrative. Part of the final analysis included the concept of a PUD overlay with City zoning. A planned unit development (PUD) for the site was developed to the greatest extend possible and has been filed concurrently with the annexation request and will be considered the initial zoning of the property upon annexation to the city of Kalispell. C. Location and Legal Description of Property: The property being proposed for annexation and the PUD zoning is located on the west side of US Hwy 93 with Four Mile Drive on the south, West Reserve Drive on the north and Stillwater Road on the west. The property can be described as the southwest quarter of the northwest quarter and that portion of the northeast quarter lying westerly of the westerly right of way line of US Highway 93 as shown on Federal Aid Project Nos. F 5-3(32)115 and F 5- 3(24)115, excepting there from the southwest quarter of the southwest quarter of the northwest quarter and the northwest quarter of the northwest quarter of the southwest quarter all in Section 36, Township 29 North, Range 22 West, PM.M., Flathead County, Montana. D. Existing Land Use and Zoning: The site is currently being used for agricultural purposes under a lease agreement. Currently this property is in the County zoning jurisdiction and is zoned AG-80, an Agricultural zoning district which has a minimum lot size requirement of 80 acres and generally anticipates large scale agricultural production. E. Adjacent Land Uses and Zoning: North: Single family and multi -family residential, County R-2 and RA-1 zoning South: Undeveloped, single family homes, City ball fields and agricultural, City P-1, County R-1, SAG-10 and R-2 East: Home Depot, Ole's, college and agricultural, City B-2 / PUD and R-1, County 13-1 and SAG-10 zoning West: Agricultural, AG-80 zoning F. General Land Use Character: The general land use character of this area is a mix of rural residential, suburban residential, high density residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural. It lies in a transition area between the rural and urban areas of north Kalispell. G. Utilities and Public Services: Once annexed City services would be available to this site.

The PUD would identify three distinct development areas with an internal road system established with a limit the permitted and conditionally permitted uses listed in the various zoning districts. The specific terms of the development proposal are outlined in the development agreement and the PUD application. The PUD development proposal has no deviations from the zoning that relate to the various development pods. Lots have not been created for lease, but would be subject to subdivision review and the design standards of the City. The statutory basis for reviewing a change in zoning is set forth by 76-2-205, M.C.A. and the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. Findings of fact for the zone change request are discussed relative to the itemized criteria described by 76-2-203, M.C.A and Section 27.30.020, Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. This property is within the Kalispell city -county planning jurisdiction and subject to a neighborhood plan for the area. The Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation drafted a neighborhood plan that went through the public hearing process and public meetings. The plan was approved by both the City of Kalispell and Flathead County in 1999. In May of 2000 the City, County and State entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) agreeing that the DNRC would develop the property in accordance with the neighborhood plan and would comply with all applicable zoning, subdivision and construction standards. The DNRC completed the required MEPA process which resulted in some deviations from the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. The proposed annexation and zoning with the PUD overlay is an additional step in the implementation of the neighborhood plan and the development of the property in compliance with the DNRC Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. .- -. -• so- a lunwe U92M-. 6 .. . .' - The development is proposed to be served from several accesses to the site. Two accesses would be off of Hwy 93 with the existing access near the DNRC offices being improved. A north access would be developed that would generally align with the access to the east serving the Mountain View Plaza (Home Depot) development. This intersection will be a signalized and the plan has been reviewed and approved by the Montana Department of Transportation. Two accesses would be developed off of Four Mile Drive to the south. This roadway is in marginal condition and would warrant additional upgrades by the developer as a result of the development of this area. The wide swing to the north attempts to circumnavigate the large hill on Four Mile. One access is proposed from Stillwater Road and one from West Reserve Drive. The full implications of the development and the most appropriate location of the traffic lights and accesses as well as review and approval by the City and Montana Department of Transportation. Some more specific analysis of the traffic impacts can be found in the EIS prepared as part of the MEPA process. Page 3 of 9 This property is at the northern boundaries of the city limits which creates some concerns regarding the emergency response times and increases the need for a second fire station in the area. The site is approximately three and one-half miles from the fire station. However, the development of the Mountain View Plaza site to the east has a site for a new fire station. All of the buildings within the development will be required to be constructed in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code. A planned unit development proposal gives the public and administration the opportunity to review the development plan on the site which should result in better overall design, integration into the landscape and as an entrance to the community. Part of the development proposal includes the extension of public water and sewer throughout the site. The extension of these services and the ability of the City of Kalispell to provide services to this site and other properties in the area would be assessed as part of an overall evaluation and review of the utility extension plan. Additional land for commercial expansion will be added to the inventory of developable properties. The planned unit development does not deviate from the zoning regulations and would be subject to all of the development standards of the zoning and those performance standards included in the development agreement. The development proposal includes a phasing of the development pods which should pace the development of the site. At some point the applicants would file for a subdivision that would create these parcels so that the development sites would be able to be conveyed as separate parcels. All of the parcels would comply with minimum standards of zoning. The future development potential of the site would have substantial impacts on traffic and people in the area. Traffic impacts associated with the type and intensity of development proposed pose the greatest concern with regard to undue concentration of people. Mitigation of potential traffic impacts associated with the development of this site would be identified in an traffic impact analysis that will be required by the Montana Department of Transportation and the City of Kalispell which would deal primarily with impacts along West Reserve Drive and Highway 93. This may include the use of deceleration lanes, limited access along the highway, traffic signals and other appropriate means of mitigation. New City infrastructure will need to be extended to the site as it relates to water and sewer. A complete and adequate analysis of the needs of the development and the existing infrastructure and the ability of the City to serve the project have not been fully developed or analyzed but would occur at the time of subdivision review or as a project proposal is fully developed. Fire and police services will also be required to service the site which will require fire safety improvements that will include Page 4 of 9 improvements to the water system, hydrants and sprinkled buildings, for example. The location of this development in relation to the City fire department poses some concerns regarding the City's ISO rating and response times to the site. The location at an intersection of two major arterials and the proximity to City services appears to make this property particularly suited for the particular uses proposed for the site. The character of the area is a mix of rural residential, high density residential, agricultural, industrial and commercial. Development of this property to a commercial use appears to give reasonable consideration to the character of the area. Most of the properties in the area are residential or agricultural in nature with emerging commercial to the east. This development proposal will help to conserve the value of buildings in the area. •- N1511 NO •. Because this rezoning request complies with the neighborhood plan for Section 36, particularly with a PUD overlay, it would seemingly encourage the most appropriate use of this property. The planned unit development will offer some predictability as to how and when this property would be developed. It appears that this rezoning would encourage the most appropriate use of this property and the use of land in the planning jurisdiction. Page 5 of 9 FVAi IATION OF THE Pi NN D TINIT DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL Project Narrative: The Montana Department of Natural Resources Section 36 contains a total of 640 acres. The Kalispell Youth Athletic Complex is located in the southeast quarter of this section and the City has a lease with the State. The complex occupies nearly the entire quarter section which was annexed several years as part of the development of the ball fields. Groswiler Dairy has approximately 20 acres on the west side of the section that is not part of this proposal with within Section 36. There are approximately 454 acres that are part of this proposal and would be subject to the zoning, the PUD overlay and the development agreement. There are four land use areas identified on the entire section of land designated as a specific development pod. A Mixed Commercial pod is identified on the area adjacent to US Hwy 93 between the Hwy 93 Bypass alignment and the center section line that contains approximately 118 acres. A Mixed Professional pod is identified for the area located in the north half of the section, north and west of the US Hwy 93 Bypass alignment which contains approximately 184 acres. A Mixed Residential pod is proposed for the area in the southwest quarter of the section which contains approximately 152 acres. The project is proposed to be phased over a number of years. The State plans to develop the property on a lease basis wherein the developer would install the infrastructure such was water, sewer, roads and storm drainage in accordance with City design and construction standards. The infrastructure is proposed to be developed and the subdivision stage and would be subject to review and / or bonding at that time. Phase I would be the mixed commercial pod that would be given a B-5, Commercial / Industrial zoning designation. The PUD overlay would limit the types of uses allowed in the development pod and require certain performance standards beyond that required under the zoning. The initial project under consideration would be a high tech business part that is planned for the mixed commercial area. Technology uses have been stated as a priority use for this area which contains approximately 118 acres. The mixed commercial area will be extended to include the entire northeast quarter of the section or an addition 42 acres which would be held as a reserve area for expansion of technology uses beyond the original pod area. This high tech business part currently under consideration would occupy approximately 60 acres of the site and contain approximately 40,000 square feet. Should this project expand an additional area north of the power lines would be available for additional development. There are restrictions on the size and type of uses that would be allowed in this development pod area. Expansion of the mixed commercial pod would not be permitted until at least 60 percent of the initial develop pod has been leased for development. Phase II would be in the mixed professional pod that lies in the northwest corner of the section. This area would be designated with an underlying zone of R-5, Residential / Professional Office. The PUD would have specific development standards for this area. This development pod would contain approximately 180 acres initially with approximately 42 acres to be transferred to the mixed commercial area if the thresholds on development are met. This includes an approximately 18-acre site for a school and natural resource agency campus. Development of this site would be restricted to not more than 20 percent of the site, excluding the school and campus area, until at least 50 percent of the mixed commercial pod is leased for development. Phase III would be in the mixed residential development area located in the southwest corner of the section. This would have an underlying zoning designation of R-4, Two Family Residential. This area contains approximately 150 acres that includes an Page 6 of 9 approximately 20-acre site designated as a deferred development area that could be used for a school or other public facilities. Specific performance standards are outlined in the development agreement that addresses access, development improvements, parking, landscaping, signage building orientation, setbacks as well as exterior finishes and architectural compatibility. None of these standards present a deviation from the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. Criteria for the r-reation of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Dis r: The following information and evaluation criteria are from Section 27.21.020(2), of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. The intent of the planned unit development provisions are to provide a zoning district classification which allows some flexibility in the zoning regulations and the mixing of uses which is balanced with the goal of preserving and enhancing the integrity and environmental values of an area. The zoning ordinance has a provision for the creation of a PUD district on annexation of the property into the city. Review of Appli -a ion Based Upon MID Evaluatinn Criteria: The zoning regulations provide that the planning board shall review the PUD application and plan based on the following criteria: 1. The extent to which the plan departs from zoning and subdivision regulations otherwise applicable to the subject property, including, but not limited to, density, bulk and use, and the reasons why such departures are or are not deemed to be in the public interest; The planned unit development as proposed does not deviate from the zoning or subdivision regulations. On the contrary, some of the design standards have been developed to be more restrictive as they relate to use, building height, signage and landscaping 2. The nature and extent of the common open space in the planned development project, the reliability of the proposals for maintenance and conservation of the common open space and the adequacy or inadequacy of the amount and function of the open space in terms of the land use, densities and dwelling types proposed in the plan; Open space is defined in the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance as "Any part of a lot unobstructed from the ground upward. Any area used for parking or maneuvering of automotive vehicles or storage of equipment or refuse shall not be deemed open space." Open space has been addressed in the covenants for the property which would be addressed through a common maintenance agreement and assessments to the leaseholders. Perimeter landscaping is proposed in accordance with Kalispell's Street Tree Ordinance which requires spacing of trees at 40-foot intervals with a 2'/4-inch caliper tree. The overall landscape plan would ultimately be coordinated with the Kalispell Parks and Recreation Director. All of the parking lots, roadways, sidewalks and landscape areas will be would be held in common or have cross easement agreements recorded to ensure unrestricted accesses within the site. Although not specified, these common parking and access areas will be maintained by the leaseholders within the development. Covenants were included with the application address the maintenance and assessments for the common areas. 3. The manner in which said plan does or does not make adequate provision for public services, provide adequate control over vehicular traffic and further the amenities of light or air, recreation and visual enjoyment; Page 7 of 9 The extension of public water and sewer to the site is proposed as part of the overall development of the site on t the time of subdivision review. All of the infrastructure would be designed and constructed in accordance with the City of Kalispell design standards and reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Public Works Department. A rather extensive review of the services and facilities needs was done in association with the Montana Environmental Protection Act (MEPA) prior to the submittal of the application for annexation and can be found the in the DNRC's Environmental Impact Statement. The impact of additional development on the existing City systems have not been quantified since no specific proposal has been development at this juncture in the process. Impacts and needed infrastructure improvements associated with a specific development proposal would be addressed in conjunction with the subdivision review process. Access to the site has been designed in accordance with the neighborhood plan document and is reflected on the site plan included with the PUD application. 4. The relationship, beneficial or adverse, of the planned development project upon the neighborhood in which it is proposed to be established; Development of the property in accordance with the neighborhood plan is intended to fulfill the State mandate for managing school trust lands for the benefit of the schools while further the goals of the community. This proposal may benefit the community as a whole by filling a perceived need within the community for additional area for commercial, industrial, office and residential development. The greatest adverse impacts to the neighborhood would be related to increased traffic from the site and the creation of a large- scale commercial element in an exurban area of the county. The impacts of the commercial development can be mitigated to a certain extent with landscaping, good site design and internal circulation, and the limitation on certain uses allowed within the various zones. 5. In the case of a plan which proposes development over a period of years, the sufficiency of the terms and conditions proposed to protect and maintain the integrity of the plan which finding shall be made only after consultation with the City attorney; This development is proposed to occur in phases over the next ten to 50 years. Phase I would include the technology oriented businesses at the northeast corner of the site with subsequent development to the north and to the west. The subsequent phases would occur in a counter clockwise fashion from the mixed commercial to the mixed professional to the mixed residential pods. The deferred development areas within the site would not be subject to phasing requirements outlined in the development agreement, but would be available for development of schools and other public facilities. 6. Conformity with all applicable provisions of this chapter; No deviations from the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance are being proposed with this PUD proposal or the development agreement. Rummar�v,: The zoning regulations require that once a final plan is approved by the city council, the applicant shall submit a revised plan in accordance with the approval of the council which incorporates any conditions which have been imposed by the council. After all of the terms and conditions of the agreement have been determined along with a final site plan, a development agreement will be drafted between the City of Kalispell and the Developer outlining and formalizing the terms. The final plan as approved, together with the development agreement and any conditions, terms or restrictions which may be imposed, shall constitute the Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning for the site. Page 8 of 9 Staff recommends that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board adopt staff report #KA-01- 4 as findings of fact and recommend to the Kalispell City Council that upon annexation the property be given the proposed zoning with a PUD overlay subject to the following conditions: 1. That the development of the site shall be in substantial compliance with the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan as amended through the MEPA process, the development agreement, application, the site plan and conditions for the PUD as approved by the city council. 2. The proposed development areas within the site shall be substantially the same as indicated on the preliminary site plan submitted with the application or as modified by these conditions. 3. That the plans and specifications for water, sewer, drainage and grading shall be designed and installed in accordance with the Kalispell Design and Construction Standards and shall be subject to review and approval by the Kalispell Public Works Department at the time of subdivision review. 4. The fire access and suppression system shall be reviewed and approved by the Kalispell Fire Department for compliance with the Uniform Fire Code. 5. A plan shall be developed and in place that addresses the grading, revegetation, irrigation and maintenance of the undeveloped areas that creates a weed free, dust - free area until such time as that phase is fully developed. 6. That the necessary easements be obtained for the extension of water and sewer services to the site. 7. That a traffic impact study be completed which identify all expected traffic impacts and proposals for mitigation, and that appropriate approach permits be obtained from the Montana Department of Transportation and the City of Kalispell at the time development occurs. 8. That pedestrian walkways be provided as the site develops that provides a continuous and connected system with the existing walkways along Highway 93, Four Mile Drive and within the developed areas of the site. 9. That the uses allowed within the development shall not include those which require areas for the display of large merchandise such as new and used automobile sales, manufactured home sales, recreational vehicle sales and lumberyards. This would not preclude incidental events associated with the other businesses on the site. 10. That the phasing and timing of the development shall occur as proposed. Bonding for the proposed infrastructure and improvements or other acceptable means of insuring that the improvements will be completed as proposed shall be provided by the developer at the time of subdivision review. 11. The developer and City of Kalispell shall execute a development agreement based on terms and conditions included in the planned unit development.

As part of this development, West Reserve Dr. should be widened. Since the north side has been developed, and there is a major powerline present, the widening should be to the south. I would recommend that there be a deeded easement along the north boundary of the development. • The proposed Alternate US 93 (by-pass) makes very little sense in that it by- passes nothing. The junction of West Reserve and US 93 is already a very busy intersection, with many wrecks. The by-pass should be taken further north before connecting with US 93 — maybe in the area of Church Drive. • Lastly, what area is being set aside for Kalispell's new high school? Sincerely, /OS h T. Nelson, 7r. 100 Ranch Rd. Kalispell, MT 59901 ATHEAD ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES INC. 5EP m 5 2001 August 30, 2001 ' Narda Wilson, Senior Planner Tri-City Planning Office 17 Second Street E Ste 211 Kalispell MT 59901 Re: DNRC Section 36 Annexation and Initial Zoning — PUD — Comments Dear Ms. Wilson, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed zoning change and annexation. After review of the documents, we would offer the following comments: Because this proposal will significantly increase vehicle traffic on West Reserve Drive, and because the existing road is too narrow to safely accommodate the present commercial (truck) traffic; provision should be made for a road easement along the north side of the section so that West Reserve could be widened to the south. The north side has already been developed out to the existing right-of- way and, in addition, contains a major transmission line. Because of the present traffic congestion at the junction of West Reserve Drive and Highway 93, the proposed Alternate 93 (by-pass) makes little sense. A route taking the by-pass further north before intersecting the present route would ease the congestion. We would anticipate providing electrical service to this complex primarily from West Reserve Drive, with a secondary approach from Four Mile Drive. Thought should be given to providing utility easements that will provide adequate access. Given the present need for a new high school, we wonder if a site shouldn't be reserved within this section.

(B) It is agreed between the parties, that the development of the Subject Property will include the following: (1) A land use map, which identifies three land use pods and a proposed alignment of internal collector roads to be built in phases as development occurs (Exhibit E); (2) A list of permitted uses associated with each land use pod; (3) A phasing schedule of development; (4) A land use plan as identified in the Section 36 Final Environmental Impact Statement and associated Record of Decision; (5) Annexation of the Subject property into the city limits of Kalispell; (6) Extension of city water and sewer services by lessees of DNRC to serve the developed facilities of the Subject Property; (7) Adherence to the Memorandum of Understanding jointly approved by the City of Kalispell, Flathead County, and DNRC; and (8) Compliance with the PUD zoning regulations and City of Kalispell Subdivision regulations. (C) Development themes for each Land Use POD being annexed into the City of Kalispell are as follows: (1) Mixed Commercial a district providing a variety of commercial industries are appropriate and where community design to minimize the appearance of strip commercial development is desirable, including but not limited to all uses set forth in Kalispell Zoning Ordinance Classification B-5 and as otherwise modified by this Agreement. Strip -type uses characterized by substantial outdoor storage and display of products, such as car lots and equipment and trailer sales are specifically excluded. Also specifically excluded as permitted uses are gaming/gambling establishments of any kind, including casinos. The range of permitted uses are intended to permit a variety of uses associated with the retail, professional services, or technology industries but does not necessarily limit or restrict opportunities for continued agricultural operations or practices. However, technology uses are given priority consideration consistent with the Record of Decision issued by DNRC. (2) Mixed Professional a district providing opportunities for development of offices, office parks, and compatible uses in a fashion that promotes clustering of uses and architectural control, including but not limited to all uses set forth in Kalispell Zoning Ordinance Classification R-5 and as otherwise modified by this Agreement. The phasing limitations anticipated by the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan would be modified to encourage development of schools and a resource agency office park in this POD consistent with the Record of Decision issued by DNRC. (3) Mixed Residential a district providing opportunities for development of residential uses, offices, and other compatible uses in a fashion that promotes clustering of uses and architectural control, including but not limited to all uses set forth in Kalispell Zoning Ordinance Classification R-4 and as otherwise modified by this Agreement. A land exchange process will be encouraged to facilitate opportunities for private ownership and development of this POD. The phasing limitations anticipated by the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan would be modified to encourage development of schools in this POD consistent with the Record of Decision issued by DNRC. (D) The creation of individual lots (or lease lots) will be subject to subdivision review concurrent with spec project proposals. Subdivision approval will verify compliance with the provisions of the PUD Agreement and covenants and identify requirements for extension of utility services. Bonding requirements to guarantee completion of the required infrastructure (roads, water, sewer, etc) will be accomplished via the subdivision approval process. Infrastructure improvements shall consider the needs of future development within each POD, such as planning for road, water, and sewer extensions beyond the immediate project area. (E) General performance standards applicable to the Subject Property are as follows: (1) Transportation and Parking a. General access to this district from U.S. Highway 93 shall be limited to no more than 2 approaches.

Growth Management a. Development of property shall conform to the general provisions of the neighborhood plan consistent with Section 27.22.120, KZO. b. Phase I (Exhibit B) is the Mixed Commercial Pod i. Clustering of uses is preferred to encourage sharing of roads, parking, utilities, and common design. However, separation of uses, such as "large" from "small" or "commercial" from "industrial' may be appropriate within the Commercial POD. ii. Development design is intended to avoid a "strip" commercial appearance with specific exclusion of certain uses. iii. The area of the Mixed Commercial POD will be extended to include the entire NE 1/4 of Section 36 and the extended area will be held as a reserve area for expansion of technology uses beyond the original POD area as described by Exhibit B-1. iv. That portion of the Mixed Commercial POD lying southerly of the by-pass alignment will offer leases primarily to business (offices) and technology uses and compatible commercial uses, such as small retail convenience uses (delis, restaurants, copy shop, "wired" motel, etc). Retail stores exceeding 10,000 square feet per store front will not be permitted. No retail 9 will be permitted until at least 20,000 square feet of non -retail space is leased and operating within the POD. v. Expansion of business and technology uses into the expansion area will not be permitted until at least 60% of the originally - sized Mixed Commercial POD is leased for development. vi. If business and technology uses fail to achieve a 40,000 square foot floor area threshold within 5 years following the Record of Decision for the EIS or if the proposed business and technology park as proposed by Hampstead Partners fails to proceed within 1 year following the Record of Decision, then the original Mixed Commercial and Mixed Professional boundaries (Exhibit B) shall be restored and the retail restrictions removed to permit all the uses listed in Section 2.02 of this Agreement. vii. If business and technology uses fail to achieve a 120,000 square feet floor area threshold within 10 years following the Record of Decision for the EIS, then the boundaries of the original Mixed Commercial POD (Exhibit B) shall be restored and the retail restrictions removed to permit all the uses listed in Section 2.02 of this Agreement. c. Phase II (Exhibit C) is the Mixed Professional POD. i. Clustering of uses is preferred to encourage sharing of roads, parking, utilities, common design, and to prevent a scattered development pattern within the POD. ii. Infill of developed uses, with some exceptions, such as schools, agricultural facilities, and equestrian facilities, shall be from east to west. The "Section 36 Neighborhood Plan Map" also designates an area along Stillwater Road that is excluded from nonagricultural development until the year 2010. This deferred development area is modified by the Record of Decision to allow schools and a natural resource agency campus to build at any time within the Mixed Professional POD. iii. Development of non-agricultural uses shall be restricted to no more than 20% of this POD until at least 50% of the Mixed Commercial POD (Exhibit B) is leased for development. School, agency campus, and equestrian facilities may be permitted at any time and are not subject to the 20% calculation. iv. That portion of the NE 1/4 of Section 36 lying within the Mixed Professional POD may be added to the area of the Mixed Commercial POD as described in (b) above. The amended legal description of the Mixed Commercial POD is described in Exhibit C-1. The infill pattern of the Mixed Professional POD would need to reflect this reserve area for the future expansion of the Mixed Commercial POD. d. Phase Ill is the Mixed Residential POD. i. Clustering of uses is preferred to encourage sharing of roads, parking, utilities, common design, and to prevent a scattered development pattern within the POD. ii. lnfilI of developed uses, with some exceptions, such as schools, agricultural facilities, and equestrian facilities, shall be from south to north or from east to west. The "Section 36 Neighborhood Plan Map" also designates an area along Stillwater Road that is excluded from non-agricultural development until the year 2010. This deferred development area is modified by the Record of Decision to allow schools to build at any time within the Mixed Residential POD, including the deferred development area. iii. Development of non-residential and nonagricultural uses shall be restricted to no more than 20% of this POD until at least 50% of the Mixed Professional POD is leased for development or 50% of this POD is occupied by residential uses, whichever comes first. This limitation does not apply to public facilities. 6. Supplementary Regulations a. Accessory uses shall be permitted as appropriate to a particular use and as generally set forth in Section 10 27.22.020 et seq, KZO. Subsections 2a and 2b of that section of the KZO shall generally apply to residential uses within any portion of Section 36. Subsections 2d and 2e, KZO, would apply as appropriate to non-residential uses in any portion of Section 36. b. The greenbelt provisions of Section 27.22.050 shall be interpreted and applied concurrent with subdivision review. C.

(H) DNRC shall require all proposed uses to be subject to architectural review. All structures shall conform to the relevant City of Kalispell Building Department regulations. Architectural consistency between building types within each POD is desired. [Since development of this property is likely to expand over several decades and styles change, some flexibility in design is desirable and expected.] The covenants establish architectural review authority for all proposed uses. 1) Landscape features are an important component of the developed properties. Landscaping is intended to complement the travel ways, parking lots, buildings, lots, and common areas ( see 2.01E (1), (2), and (3) of this Agreement). 2) Landscape materials shall be comprised of ornamental and native plant species common to the general community. Boulevard trees shall be consistent with the approved species list of the City of Kalispell. 3) Exterior lighting along travel ways and parking lots should be directed downward. Ornamental lighting along pathways and parking lots is encouraged. Low intensity lighting (exterior) may be appropriate to add architectural interest to certain features of a building face or building signage. Lighting directed upward to illuminate tree canopies or building overhangs may provide attractive accents. 4) Signage on buildings is intended to be complimentary to the building design and add architectural interest to the structure. Common signage, including entrance signage, is intended to be low profile and comprised of materials 14 complimentary to the building structures (see Section 2.01 E (3) of this Agreement). 5) Building design is an important consideration in helping to define the quality of the built environment. Each land use POD allows a mix of different land use types. Landscaping and other common features will provide one form of community linkage and identity. The other linkage will be building architecture. In general terms, all commercial buildings should seek to have architecturally enhanced facades and broken roof and wall lines to minimize monotony of design. Expectations of building design common to all land use types will include the following components. a. Exterior wall colors should harmonize with the site and surrounding buildings. The pre -dominate tone on building faces should tend toward warm earthy hues, whether in the natural patina or weathered color of the wall surface itself or the color of the paint stain or other coating. The color of concrete products on building faces should be not be achieved from painting the surface. The use of materials such as wood, brick or stone for trim material is encouraged. b. Large, rectangular masses should be avoided by incorporating offsets in the wall and roof. A change in the plain of the walls, changing the direction or providing some variety in the roof form gives diversity and visual interest. Facades greater than 120 feet in length must exhibit a prominent shift in the wall. C. Commercial buildings (non-residential) should place an emphasis on entry. Entries should be a prominent component of the building face by providing an architectural covered or recessed entry with modified roof accent and increased usage of windows and trim. d. All residential roofs must be pitched. Commercial roofs may be pitched or flat. Brightly colored roof material is prohibited as are reflective metals. All roof mechanical systems shall be shielded from view or incorporated into architectural features. Roof design shall incorporate architectural relief if building foot print size is greater than 20,000 square feet. e. Extensive use of windows is encouraged to break up building planes or add architectural interest to building facades or other walls facing public view. f. Franchise architecture is subject to modification to achieve the sign, color, and building style objectives set forth by this Agreement. g. Architectural elements of the front of the building shall be incorporated into the back of buildings when the back of the building is visually accessible from U.S. Highway 93. 2.03 Ownership The State of Montana may retain ownership of the Subject Property or leased parcels for the development and use by third parties. This Agreement is binding on the owners, successors and assigns inclusive of lessees of the property described in Exhibit A attached hereto. 2.04 Relationship to Zoning Ordinance Except as specifically modified or superseded by this Agreement and attached drawings or the PUD Application of DNRC, the laws, rules, and regulations of the City of Kalispell governing the use and development of land and buildings, including the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance as it now exists or as amended, shall apply to the Subject Property. 2.05 Effectiveness The provisions of this Agreement shall become effective simultaneously with approval of the PUD Ordinance.

Section 36 Initial Zoning PUD Nanudve A Comprehensive Approach to a Planned Community 'bta' ir, uym'h..'�.�ai��3 �rubG�:�'t .+�„�.r:,._ The Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) is the management agency for a section of state-owned land, described in this application as Section 36. This land is located on the north side of Kalispell, between Four Mile Drive and West Reserve Drive. A map on the following page displays the location of the property. The property is managed for the benefit of the common schools of Montana. All lease income from the property is allocated to the budgets of schools throughout Montana. In recent years, DNRC has participated in a variety of public processes to identify income opportunities for the property. The current effort and subject of this application is to annex the state-owned land into the City of Kalispell and to apply City of Kalispell zoning classifications to the property. A zoning PUD overlay is proposed to help effectuate the planning objectives for the property. The PUD overlay will restrict the range of allowable uses, increase performance measures, identify phasing objectives, require infrastructure to be built in accordance to City of Kalispell design and construction standards, and establish a review process for proposed uses. fx^�� - s„ M "p ! A History OfwQrocees 4r t . The Kalispell City -County Growth Policy. The planning staff of the Flathead Regional Development Office initiated an effort to update the Kalispell City -County Master plan in 1996. The local office of the DNRC actively participated in that planning effort, but a Growth Policy has yet to be adopted. However, as a spin-off to that broader community process, DNRC prepared a Neighborhood Plan to guide land use decisions for Section 36. The Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. DNRC prepared the plan over a period of several years. The process included a comprehensive public involvement process, involving mailings, community meetings, and public hearings. The Plan was approved by the City of Kalispell and Flathead County in June 1999. Land Use Map: The Section 36 Plan includes a land use map that depicts four land use pods. A Mixed Commercial POD is identified in the area adjacent to U.S. Highway 93, between the proposed Highway 93 by-pass alignment and the center section line. A Mixed Professional POD is identified for an area primarily located in the N'h of Section 36 and north of the proposed U.S. Highway 93 by-pass. A Mixed Residential POD is identified for an area generally described as the SW'/a of Section 36. The SE'/a has PUD Narrative 0 t I 1000 500 0 1000 Scale to feet 26 III 25 Section 36 PUD Application Vicinity Map --North Kalispell Section 36, T29N R22W 35 i 36 West Rese&e Drive 136 /. . 23 I ' I r I I I I F 1 i I I L� 7th Standard Parallel North I I 36 25 1 Drive A L 31 Grandview Drive already been annexed into the City of Kalispell and is shown by the land use map as "Sports Fields". Plan Narrative: The narrative of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan is a "Goals" and 'Policies' document. The development theme of each land use pod is defined by goals and policies but also included is a list of permitted or "acceptable" uses and various performance standards. Memorandum of Understanding (MOU): A MOU was jointly approved by the City, Flathead County, and State Board of Land Commissioners in May 2000. This document helps to clarify how the Neighborhood Plan would be implemented in joint cooperation with local governments. Under the provisions of the MOU, DNRC will be subject to local zoning and subdivision review of all proposed uses. In addition, improvements will be constructed to city standards and taxes will be paid on land and structures as development occurs. The MEPA Process. Subsequent to the adoption of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan and MOU, DNRC prepared an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to analyze alternative plans for Section 36. DNRC was litigated by several organizations, alleging that DNRC had failed to prepare an environmental analysis [of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan) under the provisions of the Montana Environmental Policy Act (MEPA). The need for preparing an "appropriate MEPA document" was upheld by the presiding judge. The process of preparing an EIS included the issuance of an (1) "Initial Proposal", (2) Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), (3) Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), and (4) Record of Decision (ROD). As part of the environmental analysis, 4 land use scenarios, ranging from low -impact development to high impact development, were analyzed to determine the range of impacts and associated mitigation needs, especially related to issues of traffic, water supply, sewage collection, and economics. Based on the performed analysis and comments from the general public, the Record of Decision for the EIS requires DNRC to modify certain elements of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. These are discussed below and will be incorporated into the PUD Agreement Mixed Commercial POD: DNRC will prioritize the development of technology uses over retail commercial uses in this POD. This priority of use will persist so long as technology development continues to expand and be successful based upon a lyear, 5 year, and 10 year review as explained in the FEIS. Successful development of technology uses will permit the expansion of technology uses into a portion of the MIXED Professional POD (NE /a). Expansion of these uses into the adjoining land use POD may require an amendment to the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan, which will be pursued at that time of occurrence. Other uses, including general retail, will be permitted if technology development is not successful. A City of Kalispell Zoning Classification of B-5 is proposed with a PUD overlay. Mixed Professional POD: The ROD suggests two types of amendments to the Mixed. Professional POD. The first was discussed in the previous paragraph, wherein the area of the Mixed Professional POD would be reduced to permit expansion of technology uses beyond the existing area of the Mixed Commercial POD. This would also affect the preferred east to west in -fill pattern to the POD by delaying development opportunities in the NE'/a of Section 36 lying above the proposed highway by-pass alignment. Initial development in the Mixed Professional POD, prior to any final decision of expanding the area of the Mixed Commercial POD, would be closer to the mid -section line (north/south). Also affected by the ROD is the desire to promote the siting of a school and a natural resource agency campus near the west end of the POD. These objectives would be achieved by identifying a phasing exemption to the deferred development area identified in the land use map of the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. It is anticipated that PUD Narrative i . • a plan amendment may be necessary before these uses will be permitted in the locations and in the time suggested by the ROD. A City of Kalispell Zoning Classification of R-5 is proposed with a PUD overlay. Mixed Residential POD: Suggested changes to this land use POD by the ROD is to . provide a site, within the next 10 years, for a school within the area designated by the Plan as "Deferred Development Area". This suggestion by the ROD will require an amendment to the Section 36 Neighborhood Plan. A City of Kalispell Zoning . Classification of R-4 is proposed with a PUD overlay that would permit a wide range of residential and office opportunities. .� C2 s lmp a ��•Ph 0 IP-P Proposal . , . It is the intent of DNRC to provide for planned development of Section 36 in accordance to the Record of Decision issued for the EIS. This includes the changes of development philosophy and emphasis described in the preceding section. The predominate objective of . DNRC is to seek increased revenue opportunities to the school trust by implementing a land . use plan that is sensitive to community design and economic opportunities. Major components of Plan implementation include: • Annexation of the entire property into the City limits of Kalispell; . • Zoning of the property to consider logical patterns of development, priority . . ® of uses, phasing, and development standards; • Extension of city infrastructure (water, sewer) to serve the intended uses; . and . • Local review of subdivision proposals. Major components of the PUD zoning include: • Limitation of allowable uses, including restriction of strip -type commercial uses; . • Architectural review and approval of building design; . • Requirement for common landscape features and other performance standards; • Restriction of allowable signage; • Phasing of utility and road improvements; and . • Anticipation of future utility and traffic mitigation needs. . 4 E The PUD Prelinunary Plan The property subject to this request for initial zoning are the state-owned lands located in the NE 1/4, NW '/4, and SW '/4 of Section 36, Township 29 N, Range 22 W, PMM, Flathead County. The SE '/4 is already annexed and zoned P-1. A private dairy occupies a portion of Section 36 near Stillwater Road. Approximately 454± acres are subject to the annexation and zoning request. The layout map (included at the end of this section) of the property includes the following features: • Topography at 4 foot contour intervals; • Perimeter public roads; • Location of proposed internal collector roads; • Controlled access locations to perimeter public roads; and • Land use PODS. The PUD Development Agreement describes the common area and open space objectives, which include, in part, a 20-foot landscape buffer adjacent to U.S. Highway 93 and a 10 foot buffer adjacent to West Reserve Drive. No developed facilities are currently located on the property. The layout plan identifies 3 distinct land use PODS. The development philosophy, including range of allowable uses and bulk and height allowances are described in the PUD Development Agreement. Subdivision review will test each proposed project for compliance with the zoning and ensure proper implementation of infrastructure requirements. tef�SpYnentFPafilfE t _� •J •, r�� ".swzt.�wa .tau 3za,d1. V An environmental impact statement (EIS) was prepared to evaluate alternative plans for Section 36. As part of this analysis, ranges of development scenarios were considered to evaluate impacts to the human and physical environment. Key components of the analysis dealt with "water", "sewer", and "traffic". A copy of a water and sewer extension plan for the property as envisioned over the next 20 years is attached as a separate exhibit. Water. The property is within the upper pressure zone of the City of Kalispell water distribution system. All developed uses in Section 36 will connect to the city system. At this time, the upper pressure zone has adequate storage and production capacity but is deficient in meeting a 4,000 gpm, 4-hour fire flow requirement. Additional storage, production capacity, booster pumping or a combination of each would be necessary to satisfy the 4 hour fire demand. As development increases within Section 36 and adjacent properties over the next 20 PUD Narrative years, an additional water supply source and storage facility may be necessary. It is possible that the existing irrigation well that serves the ball field complex in the SE 1/4 could be utilized as a source of domestic water and be integrated into the Kalispell water delivery system, as need demands. An elevated location near Four Mile Drive might also be suitable for a future storage tank if deemed necessary to satisfy storage deficiency. This topic is extensively discussed in the Section 36 DEIS, which is herein incorporated by reference. Subdivision review of proposed lease lots will determine the scope of required extensions and/or improvements to the system. Sewer. All developed uses in Section 36 will connect to the City of Kalispell's sewer system via the lift station at Grandview Drive. The lift station will eventually need to be improved as flows increase with development. Downstream improvements to the piping will also be necessary. The discussion of this topic is more fully explored in the Section 36 EIS, which is herein incorporated by reference. Subdivision review of proposed lease lots will determine the scope of required extensions and/or improvements to the system. Traffic. The existing transportation system in the vicinity of Section 36 is extensively described and discussed in the Section 36 DEIS so detailed discussion of this topic will be left with that source. The proposed collector road system of Section 36 is designed to limit access onto the adjoining public roads. Initial development in the ATE 1/4 of Section 36 will align the access to U.S. Highway 93 with the signaled approach to Mountain View Plaza. The internal collector road system will be completed in phases as warranted by increasing traffic from developed uses. All collector and local roads within Section 36 will be constructed to City of Kalispell design standards and be dedicated to the city following completion. Increasing traffic (trips) from Section 36 will require a variety of mitigation strategies to maintain acceptable Level of Service (LOS) at the on- and off -site intersections. This topic is more fully described in the Section 36 EIS, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Parking requirements will follow the space -to -use guidelines of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance. Drainage. All drainage will be engineered to reain on Section 36. Drainage plans will be reviewed and approved concurrent with subdivision review. wC? ' eyti,x rc- 14rdhit aily7iemes, . .r.:. A variety of land use types might be associated with development of Section 36. Land use opportunities range from equestrian centers to industrial uses. Since development of Section 36 is likely to extend over a period of decades, it may not be appropriate to define a particular architectural theme for the entire property or even by land use POD. Each POD allows a mix of land use opportunities. (The PUD Development Agreement provides a general description of building and lot parameters, including provisions that require amenities on the back side of buildings when viewable from a public road and a requirement for earth tones.) Current expectations for building quality and design can be defined by representative properties in the Kalispell area. Included at the end of this section, are photographs of representative land use types that reflect the desired architectural elements, including roof relief, exterior color, wall trim, entry and window treatment, and wall composition. Mixed Commercial. In the Mixed Commercial POD, uses are likely to include (1) high tech facilities (offices, areas for storage and component assembly, shipping, etc), (2) general offices, (3) professional offices, (4) small retail, (5) large retail, and (6) "wired" motel. As with most tech structures, the front of the building will have considerable architectural amenities and landscaping. Landscaping will be used to soften the other features of the building, which often reflect warehouse type attributes. Small retail uses are expected to be clustered in groups as opposed to stand-alone. The cluster .must reflect a common architectural design. Large retail shall incorporate architectural amenities to the front of the W building, including textured or colored block, rock, and/or wood Vim. Lineal roofs are encouraged to incorporate architectural elements or change relief to discourage monotony. Offices are expected to incorporate wood, rock or brick trim. Single floor office buildings are encouraged to use pitched roofs. A motel shall incorporate brick and wood in the design. Mixed Professional. Representative uses in this land POD are likely to include professional offices, medical offices, and small neighborhood convenience retail. Wood, rock, or brick trim is expected in all structures. Wood, vinyl, brick, or colored steel textured siding is preferred over plywood or composition wood siding.. Neighborhood convenience retail shall be clustered as opposed to freestanding and reflect a common architectural design. Schools are expected to incorporate brick and wood, components with minimal exposure to the facing street of solid faced block or concrete walls. Mixed Residential. Representative uses in this land use POD could include single family dwellings, townhouses, apartment buildings, and general offices. All structures in this POD are expected to have pitched roofs. Trim shall include rock, wood, or brick. ex'b�{w� r , 3 psv '.��v.,y�. ® �+' anal a,a#; -+F" �C'" - k� ' i ^1 6`xi ©n�:ng'.i>uai �+.,.�d tl:�. �,�i•=, ; � iHIG.' ilr, 'rO, ri _r._ 2' v=,;i:z„=&.0 'a The vicinity map included with this narrative shows all adjacent subdivided and unsubdivided lands.

The Plan suggests a development schedule that will last over several decades. It is anticipated that initial phases of development in the Mixed Commercial POD will begin in the fall of 2001. The general phasing philosophy of development is described in the Plan and in the PUD Development Agreement. Common area within the property will be managed by a Property Owners Association, which provides for assessments to finance the care of the common features. The association is established by the covenants of the PUD Development Agreement. In situations where there are only lease lots, DNRC will specify common area obligations to the individual lessees. DNRC will require lessees to construct the required common area and a separate maintenance fee will be assessed to cover the related expenses. Only landscaped areas are expected to be "Common Area". All the roads will be dedicated to the City. PUD Narrative 7 All future lots will be subject to subdivision review. j DNRC is responsible for extending all required infrastructure to the approved lots. The infrastructure improvements will be guaranteed through the subdivision process, which allows for bonding as necessary. t u Other Information" a ,,iw The subject property has been subject to dozens of public meetings and hearings and has been extensively evaluated via the plan amendment process and environmental impact statement process.

However, separation of uses, such as "large" from "small" or "commercial" from "industrial" may be appropriate within the Commercial POD. ii. Development design is intended to avoid a "strip" commercial appearance with specific exclusion of certain uses. MIKM • • Do iii. The area of the Mixed Commercial POD will be extended to include the entire NE '/a of Section 36 and the extended area will be held as a reserve area for expansion of technology uses beyond the original POD area as described by Exhibit B-1. iv. That portion of the Mixed Commercial POD lying southerly of the by-pass alignment will offer leases primarily to business (offices) and technology uses and compatible commercial uses, such as small retail convenience uses (delis, restaurants, copy shop, "wired" motel, etc).

(H) DNRC shall require all proposed uses to be subject to architectural review. All structures shall conform to the relevant City of Kalispell Building Department regulations. Architectural consistency between building types within each POD is desired. [Since development of this property is likely to expand over several decades and styles change, some flexibility in design is desirable and expected.] The covenants establish architectural review authority for all proposed uses. 1) Landscape features are an important component of the developed properties. Landscaping is intended to complement the travel ways, parking lots, buildings, lots, and common areas ( see 2.01 E (1), (2), and (3) of - 22 - • • this Agreement). 2) Landscape materials shall be comprised of ornamental and native plant species common to the general community. Boulevard trees shall be consistent with the approved species list of the City of Kalispell. 3) Exterior lighting along travel ways and parking lots should be directed downward. Ornamental lighting along pathways and parking lots is encouraged. Low intensity lighting (exterior) may be appropriate to add architectural interest to certain features of a building face or building signage. Lighting directed upward to illuminate tree canopies or .building overhangs may provide attractive accents. 4) Signage on buildings is intended to be complimentary to the building design and add architectural interest to the structure. Common signage, including entrance • signage, is intended to be low profile and comprised of materials complimentary to the building structures (see Section 2.01 E (3) of this Agreement). 5) Building design is an important consideration in helping to define the quality of the built environment. Each land use POD allows a mix of different land use types. Landscaping and other common features will provide one form of community linkage and identity. The other linkage will be building architecture. In general terms, all commercial buildings should seek to have architecturally enhanced facades and broken roof and wall lines to minimize monotony of design. Expectations of building design common to all land use types will include the following components. 0 a. Exterior wall colors should harmonize with the site and - 23 - surrounding buildings. The pre- • dominate tone on building faces should tend toward warm earthy hues, whether in the natural patina or weathered color of the wall surface itself or the color of the paint stain or other coating. The color of concrete products on building faces should be not be achieved from painting the surface. The use of materials such as wood, brick or stone for trim material is encouraged. b. Large, rectangular masses should be avoided by incorporating offsets in the wall and roof. A.change in the plain of the walls, changing the direction or providing some variety in the roof form gives diversity and visual interest. Facades greater than 120 feet in length must exhibit a prominent shift in the wall. c. Commercial buildings (non- residential) should place an emphasis on entry. Entries should be a prominent component of the building face by providing an architectural covered or recessed entry with modified roof accent and increased usage of windows and trim. d. All residential roofs must be pitched. Commercial roofs may be pitched or flat. Brightly colored roof material is prohibited as are reflective metals. All roof - 24 - mechanical systems shall be shielded from view or incorporated into architectural features. Roof design shall incorporate architectural relief if building foot print size is greater than 20,000 square feet. e. Extensive use of windows is encouraged to break up building planes or add architectural interest to building facades or other walls facing public view. f. Franchise architecture is subject to modification to achieve the sign, color, and building style objectives set forth by this Agreement. g. Architectural elements of the front of the building shall be incorporated into the back of buildings when the back of the building is visually accessible from U.S. Highway 93. 2.03 Ownership The State of Montana may retain ownership of the Subject Property or leased parcels for the development and use by third parties. This Agreement is binding on the owners, successors and assigns inclusive of lessees of the property described in Exhibit A attached hereto. 2.04 Relationship to Zoning Ordinance Except as specifically modified or superseded by this Agreement and attached drawings or the PUD Application of DNRC, the laws, rules, and regulations of the City of Kalispell -2s- governing the use and development of land and buildings, • including the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance as it now exists or as amended, shall apply to the Subject Property. 2.05 Effectiveness The provisions of this Agreement shall become effective simultaneously with approval of the PUD Ordinance.
