Agenda Item 2-Evergreen Annexation'
As you are aware, we had originally scheduled a public hearing
for this evening's meeting to receive public comment and protest
concerning the Evergreen Annexation. Because we determined
prior to the hearing that sufficient resident freeholder protest
was made so as to halt the annexation, therefore, the hearing
becomes unnecessary. In lieu of a hearing, City Attorney Neier
suggests Council adopt a finding regarding the disapprovals made
by the majority of the resident freeholder. Your packet
contains the Neier memo which should be read into the record and
passed upon by motion of Council.
None scheduled.
ADDRESSING THE COUNCIL
ORDINANCES & RESOLUTIONS
Agenda Item 3-Ordinance 1208-1st Reading -Zoning Ordinance Text
Amendment -Medical Parking Standard
Some time ago the City was approached by a group of physician
developers who received a Conditional Use Permit from us to
build a medical clinic located in our H-1 zone.
3
During the discussion phase of the CUP the applicants suggested
that the City's parking standard for medical and dental offices
particularly for those located in the H-1 zone might be
excessive and asked -that we review our standard for possible
down sizing. Our planning staff did research the issue to
determine parking standards for this type facility in other
Montana cities. They found that our standard of 1 space per 150
square feet of floor area was the highest standard among those
surveyed. The average of those surveyed appears to be 1 per 200
square feet of floor area. The matter was referred to the
Planning Board for hearing and recommendation. The change
suggested by Staff is to reduce the standard for medical and
dental offices in the H-1 zone from 1 per 150 square feet to 1
per 200 square feet. The standard of 1 per 150 square feet
would remain for medical and dental offices outside the H-1
zone. The Planning Board voted in favor of recommending the
text amendment to Council, and Staff concurs with this
recommendation.
Agenda Item 4-Ordinance 1209-1st Reading -Zoning Ordinance Text
Amendment -Allowing Community Residential Facilities in a B-2
Zone
Flathead Industries has submitted a request to amend our Zoning
Ordinance to allow Community Residential Facilities in a B-2
Zone. The General Business District does not currently permit
Community Residential Facilities.
4
The FRDO Staff report included in your packet defines Community
Residential Facility. The Planning Board considered the issue
and recommends that the zoning ordinance be modified to include
Community Residential Facility for eight or fewer persons as a
permitted use.
Agenda Item 5-Resolution 4151-Authorize Allocation of Funds for
Airport Road Apartment Complex
The purpose of this resolution is to authorize the budget
appropriation for two housing grants the City recently received.
The grants include the $247,500 CDBG and the $300,000 Montana
Home Grant. As you know, our Fiscal 94 budget did not include
a provision for these grants, therefore requiring the passage of
this resolution.
BUSINESS FROM MAYOR & COUNCIL
Agenda Item 6-Proclamations
Mayor Rauthe will be proclaiming the week of May 15-21, 1994 as
National Public Works Week. He will also be declaring by
proclamation May 27, 1994 as Howard Fryett Day.

Agenda Item 7-Courtyard-Apartments-Conditional Use Permit
The City of Kalispell has made application for a Conditional Use
Permit to construct in partnership with Northwest Montana Human
Resources a 32 unit apartment complex. The complex will be
located on the west side of Airport Road approximately 600 feet
south of 18th Street. The site is zoned RA-1 and contains about
2.25 acres. The CUP was the subject of a public hearing at the
Planning Board with no one speaking in opposition. The Planning
Board recommends the approval of the CUP with 8 specific
conditions. The conditions are outlined in the CUP #KCU-94-95
included in your packet.
Agenda Item 8-Flathead Industries -Conditional Use Permit
Flathead Industries has applied to the City for a Conditional
Use Permit to construct a community residential facility serving
8 people. The property is approximately 14,000 square feet in
area, located on the east side of 4th Avenue West approximately
150 feet south of Center Street. The facility would be about
3,800 square feet in size. The Planning Board held a public
hearing on the request and has recommended the approval of the
CUP with 5 conditions.
6
Agenda Item 9-Andrews-Conditional Use Permit
Rolland Andrews has applied to the City for a Conditional Use
Permit to use a home located on property located on the
northwest corner of Woodland Avenue and 6th Street East as a Bed
and Breakfast. The site is zoned R-3. The Planning Board held
a public hearing on the request with no one speaking in
opposition. The Planning Board recommends the approval of the
CUP with 16 conditions.
Agenda Item 10-Reimann-Conditional Use Permit
Roger Reimann has applied to the City for a Conditional Use
Permit to construct a six unit apartment complex located on the
west side of College Avenue approximately 1,000 feet south of
Conrad Drive. The Planning Board held a public hearing
concerning this request and is recommending approval of the CUP
with 9 conditions.
Agenda Item 11-Herron Development -Conditional Use Permit
Herron Development has applied to the City for a Conditional Use
Permit to construct a bulk fuel storage facility located on
property on the west side of 5th Avenue West North, west of the
Kalispell Center Mall. Access to the site would be from 5th
Avenue West North and 6th Avenue West North. The site is zoned
B-5 and contains approximately 3.5 acres.
7
The Planning Board held a public hearing on the request with no
one speaking in opposition. The Planning Board is recommending
that Council approve the CUP with 9 conditions.
Agenda Item 12-Draft Letter to EPA Concerning Confederated
Salish and Kootenai Tribes EPA Request
Included in your packet is draft letter requesting on behalf of
the City that EPA deny the Tribe's request for status as a state
for Clean Water Standard purposes.
Agenda Item 13-Bid Award Recommendations -Depot Park Restrooms
Sykes Phase III Public Works Improvements
Included in your packet is memo from Mike Baker outlining the
results of our recent bid opening for restrooms at Depot Park.
As the memo indicates we had two bidders for the project.
1. Robert Ross $70,338
2. Native Way $60,169
As you are aware we have approximately $39,000 remaining in the
budget for the restroom project. As we discussed previously we
felt the bids would probably be considerably higher than our
budget, and therefore if the bids were in the neighborhood of
$60,000 that we would use some of our unallocated TIF money to
supplement the budget. If you are still inclined I would
suggest awarding the restroom bid to Native Way in the amount of
$60,169 and allocate the additional budget requirement of
$22,000 from the unallocated TIF line item.
E
We also opened bids for the Phase III Sykes Project including
the paving of a portion of 6th Avenue West North. The bids are
being evaluated at this writing and will have a recommendation
for you Monday night.
Agenda Item 14-City Attorney Evaluation
You have scheduled time this evening to discuss the Council's
evaluation of City Attorney Neier.
