Dear Bruce:

A request by Craig Burt of Kingswood Townhomes Development to allow
as a conditional use permit the construction of seven (7) apartment units
in two buildings on Lot 3 of Liberty Village in Kalispell. The access

conditions. No one spoke in opposition.
Following the public hearing, and brief Board discussion, the vote was 8-0 in favor

EVALUATION OF REQUEST
1. Site Suitability:
a. Adequate Useable Space: Currently the property contains
approximately 21,000 square feet which is the minimum necessary to
construct seven (7) units. The property contains sufficient area to
accommodate the necessary improvements of this development.
b. Adequate Access: Liberty Street provides immediate primary access.
This road Is a two-lane paved local street.
C. Environmental Constraints: The site is basically level and easily
accessible. There are no known endangered plants or wildlife species
on the site.
2. Appropriate Design:
a. Building: One of the two buildings would be located on the northern
end of the lot the other would be located toward the east side of the
lot. The design allows for parking in the front with some open space
area Interspersed. The maximum allowable height of the buildings
would be 35 feet.
b. Parking Scheme: A total of 18 parking spaces are provide for the
seven (7) units. The zoning ordinance requires two (2) spaces per unit
plus 0.5 space per unit for overflow. This would require a total of 18
spaces.
C. Traffic Circulation: A 24-foot wide paved driveway is proposed to
access the parking spaces. Minor modification to the plan would be
required at the north end of the parking lot due to a required 24 foot
backup area where only 16 feet is shown.
d. open Space: The site has been designed with easy and convenient
access to the units.
e. Fencing/Screening/Landscaping: Landscaping along the property lines
will soften the Impact of the parking areas and the buildings.
f. Signage: A request for signage was not included in the proposal. The
applicant must comply with the sign code portion of the zoning
ordinance.
3. Availability of Public Services/Facilities:
a. Schools: The apartments are within the jurisdiction of School District
#5. A County wide average of 0.4 school age children would be
expected to live here. This would mean that approximately three (3)
children would live here. - This will have an insignificant effect on the
schools of this District.
b. Parks and Recreation: City park facilities are relatively close. The
Hawthorne Park facilities are located approximately 1,000 feet to the
east.
C. Police: The Kalispell Police Department can adequately respond to
emergency situations at the complex.
d. Fire Protection: The Kalispell Fire Department can adequately respond
to this complex.
e. Water: A water main is located in Liberty Street which will provide
adequate water service.
f. Sewer: A sewer main exists in Liberty Street and provides ample
service capacity.
g. Solid Waste: The applicant will have to submit a plan to the Public
works director. The City can adequately serve the site. The site plan
may need to be modified to meet the minimum 16 feet required for
two trash dumpsters. The City requires a minimum of 1 - 400 gallon
dumpster for every 4 households.
h. Roads: The apartment complex will generate up to 46 daily vehicle
trips (6.6 per unit). Trips will head east toward Meridian Road. This is
an increase; however, Meridian Road has ample capacity.
4. Immediate Neighborhood Impact: The area is already committed to a variety
of multi -family development. In addition, this appears to be a good location
due to its proximity to services.
5. Immediate Neighborhood Integrity: The proposed use is conditionally
permitted by the zoning. The use will increase traffic on the road system but
it is designed to handle the increase. This area is already being developed
with multi -family uses so no impact is expected.
6. Impact on Property Values: The property is located within an area that is
similarly zoned RA-1. Because of the zoning and Master Plan, the proposed
use is "expected" and therefore should have no impact on property values.
3
The proposed seven (7) unit apartment complex is located In an RM zoning district
which conditionally allows multi -family uses. The Master Plan anticipates this type
of development. Adequate access is provided by liberty Street. Traffic will Increase
In the neighborhood; however, the street system can accommodate It. The
additional children will pose a minor impact on school enrollment. The site has land
area for the seven (7) units; adequate parking is available; and has suitable vehicle
circulation.
