TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Bruce Williams, City Manager
SUBJECT: Annual City Report
DATE: January 17, 1995
It is once again my pleasure to present the city's annual report.
This report is intended to highlight the accomplishments of our
city government over the last twelve months and to briefly mention
future public policy issues which may be topics of council debate
during 1995.
-GENERAL GOVERNMENT -
I am happy to report that the city's financial condition remains in
extremely good shape. Our water and sewer utilities continue to
recover from prior years of fiscal stress as a result of a water
rate increase of three years ago and Evergreen Sewer District is
now contributing to the wastewater treatment plant department and
operating expenses. We soon will need to consider increasing the
water rate sufficient to cover the debt associated with construc-
tion of the northend water well system and to provide some addi-
tional resource for operating shortfalls. Prior to any rate con-
sideration, we will be presenting council with a water rate study
which was recently completed by our public works staff. Some of
our most note worthy accomplishments during this past year include:
a clean city audit, completion and adoption of a personnel policy
handbook, A.D.A. facility compliance, basement clean-up, general
ledger information was put on microfiche, upgraded computer
hardware, job descriptions have been updated to comply with A.D.A.
requirements, acquired a new telephone system, and began the
process of recodifying our municipal codes.
-PUBLIC SAFETY -
This past year our police and fire personnel were very busy with
aggressive training schedules and increased service activity.
The police department investigated 236 felony cases with an 86%
clearance rate this past year. Adult arrests increased by 55
(2.55%) from the previous year for a total of 2,204. The
department also issued, over 5,000 traffic tickets. Department
personnel completed 4,178 hours of combined training during the
period ending December, 1994. Incident calls (calls requiring
1
officer response) increased (9.32%) from 1993 to 1994. This is an
increase of 1,168 calls.
The fire department responded to 210 fire calls, a decrease of 36
from 1993. Five of those 210 calls were general alarms, which is
down from 12 general alarms in 1993. Hopefully the decrease in
fire calls is partially due to increased inspections and public
education. Our fire personnel inspected all businesses, churches
and schools during the year. Emphasis was placed on pre-school
children and the elderly for fire safety education. The total
estimated fire loss for the year is $430,775. The department also
responded to 1786 ambulance calls, which is 55 more than in 1993.
Eight firefighters are enrolled in the E.M.T. Paramedic Course for
1995. This will take our ambulance service to the highest level of
care possible. The department currently has 4 C.P.R. Instructors
who will recertify for 1995, and we will add 4 additional
instructors at this time.
-PUBLIC WORKS -
The public works/engineering functions include the services
provided to the public by the engineering and inspection personnel
(9) along with the departments of: Streets (8), Wastewater
Treatment (6), Water (7), Sanitary and Storm Sewer (3), Solid Waste
(3), Central Garage (3), and Signs/Signals (2), being a total of 41
persons. Projects worked on beyond routine functions of these
departments were: Westside Roadway and Utility Project (Sykes #3);
6th Avenue West North and Railroad Street; designed and constructed
8th Avenue East North/California water main replacement;
reconstructed 18th Street from Main Street to 5th Avenue East;
redesigned 1st Avenue West North north of Sunset; New School
District Warehouse; replaced undersized water mains on Utah and
Arizona Streets; added responsibility for 2.6 miles of city streets
to the system to increase the total of streets/alleys to over 96
miles; added 300 new garbage accounts to bring total customers to
approximately 5,000; overlaid nearly 100 city blocks with asphalt;
completed necessary street widening work to allow a new traffic
light at 18th Street and U.S. 93; City Shop averaged 130 repair
orders per month; Evergreen Sewer District began sending sewage to
Kalispell's Wastewater Treatment Plant; at the end of 1994 there
were 44 projects underway for the Engineering Staff; signs and curb
painting for safety project authorized by M.D.O.T.; continued
survey and mapping for city G.I.S.; survey and layout of Depot Park
Extension and Lawrence Park waterline; completed Cost of Service
Study for Kalispell's Water Rates and Sewer and Treatment Plant
Impact Fees.
-PARKS AND RECREATION -
This past year we hope that you have seen the results of our many
2
program activities and improvements take shape and become realities
through the efforts of our Park and Recreation Department. Though
much has been worked off the proverbial "list" this last year,
there is also more to do in the way of maintenance, improvement,
expansion and creation in all areas of parks, recreation,
athletics, and aquatics.
Rest rooms at Depot and Heritage Parks are complete; construction
of Depot Park expansion, renovation of Washington Street Park and
new play grounds at Northridge, Gallagher, Washington Street, and
Meridian Parks, as well as courtyard Apartments, combine to add a
new dimension to our aging park facilities.
Two new and exciting ISTEA projects are slowly becoming a reality
with the design completed for Woodland Park DREAM trail, and
consultant selection and preliminary design for Lawrence Park
Pedestrian Trail. An eight court tennis complex was given the
green light to proceed at the College, preliminary design is
complete, and a final construction date is anticipated in early
1995. Lawrence Park improvements are taking shape with completion
of the water line extension and rough grading for paring areas.
The forestry program addressed pruning of 170 trees, 20 removals
and the planting of 100 trees. The Kalispell Youth Softball
Association purchased chain link fences for 4 fields at Daley Ball
Park, which Park crews installed, as well as back stops and line
posts.
Our "cement pond" continues to be one of the most popular Summer
hot spots, and this past summer broke all attendance and revenue
records. A new dimension to our recreation programs is the
addition of youth specialty camps and initiating senior programs.
Pick-nic in the Park continued with 11 weeks of noon concerts, and
3 evening concerts highlighting our cultural entertainment series.
Park reservations and requests are up considerably for weddings,
art fairs and family reunions.
-PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT -
The Planning, Economic and Community Development Department
administers and implements a panoply of local municipal services
and state/federally funded programs to assure and provide, to the
extent feasible, safe, decent, and sanitary neighborhoods and
housing opportunities for Kalispell's citizens, and a healthy,
economic environment for Kalispell's businesses. The department
administers planning, zoning, and building code enforcement
programs, commercial and residential rehabilitation loan programs,
affordable housing production, and the prerequisite loan and grant
applications, and final project administration; and, it administers
the city's tax increment financed Downtown Kalispell Urban Renewal
Project and Plan. It has been involved in many "community
building" activities providing a leadership role to encourage sound
3
planning, affordable housing, and economic development opportun-
ities throughout the Flathead Valley. It has responded by
developing and, when necessary, implementing growth management
tools, which encourage the sound growth of the municipality.
During calendar year 1994 the department's Building Enforcement
Division issued 612 building permits, representing a total
construction valuation of $43,957,423 compared to 567 building
permits valued at $25,722,058 in construction for calendar year
1993. While 1994's construction activity represented only an 8
percent increase in total number of building permits, the total
construction valuation increased by over 70 percent. The building
division added one full-time building inspector and plan review
position, enabling the division to providing residential as well as
commercial plan review. The building division is in the process of
upgrading its computer system for improved permit processing/
tracking, fee accounting, networking, and document scanning. It
will have the capability to access Uniform Building, Mechanical,
Electrical and Plumbing Code's and revisions via CD ROM.
The building division issued 368 sewer connection permits in 1994,
collecting $226,575 in connect fees. Sixty percent (60%) of the
permit and fee activity was during the last quarter of 1994, due in
part to the city's discussion and final action to raise the sewer
connect fee.
The year saw a great deal of planning activity and staff
involvement with: (i) the Airport Neighborhood Plan, (ii) North
Meridian Neighborhood Plan, (iii) the CPC's Comprehensive Plan for
Flathead County, (iv) Five-year Extension of Services Plan, (v)
multiple zoning and master -plan amendments, (vi) the Evergreen
Annexation Plan, and, (vii) Flathead County Fairgrounds Relocation
Plan. Department staff has been involved in many meetings with
developers and property owners contemplating major activity during
1995. Among the significant projects being considered will be the
Planned United Development of Northwest Health Care's 71 Acre
"Buffalo Commmons" holding located north of Kalispell Regional
Hospital and east of Highway 93. Northwest Health Care will submit
a PUD application during the early part of 1995. It will be the
first major Plannned Unit Development considered by Kalispell.
Calendar 1994 was an outstanding year for housing programs. The
department was successful in pursuing several innovative approaches
to joint venturing new construction projects with other not -for -
profit agencies involved in developing affordable housing
alternatives for Kalispell citizens. Following the City Council's
direction and a policy shift from rehabilitation of existing
housing units to new construction, the department, along with
Northwest Human Resources Development Council, Flathead Industries
for the Handicapped,. and Flathead County; applied for and received
$1.1 million in affordable housing grants from January through
December 1994. The grants include HOME, CDBG, and FHLB (Federal
4
Home Loan Bank of Seattle). The city was able to leverage land it
owned on Airport Road and on South Woodland Avenue, along with
$100,000 of UDAG (recapture) and $280,000 in Tax increment monies
into $6 million of affordable housing. The projects create: (i)
44 new affordable single-family housing units for first time home
buyers (S. Woodland project); (ii) the 24 unit Courtyard Apartments
which was opened for occupancy in November 1994, and just before
Christmas, the Clinton Administration announced the Northwest Human
Resources $388,000 grant application for its portion of the
Courtyard project had been approved, thereby assuring funding for
an additional 8 units to be constructed next spring; and the
City/FIFTH 13 units of low income rentals for physically disabled
and a 9 bedroom group home. In addition to grant, land
contributions, and TIF/UDAG funding described above, the department
assisted the private owners of the Fernwell Apartments (burned down
in 1993) to obtain an $245,000 loan commitment from Glacier
Bankcorp, a $180,000 FHLB Grant, and $774,000 in Federal Investment
Tax Credits, allowing them to begin reconstruction of the 36 unit
apartment building. Because of the city's and NWHRDC's involvement
(public/private partnership) and the special grant and loan
funding, all 36 of the Fernwell apartments will be reserved for low
income tenant occupancy for the next 50 years. The total cost of
reconstructing the Fernwell, including loans and grants, will be
$1.6 million. Construction will start next spring. Occupancy is
scheduled for the fall of 1995.
The Department has $700,000 in grant/loan applications in the
pipeline for next year, some of which will be available to
contribute part of the down payment and closing costs of the 44
unit South Woodland project. The project should be underway in the
spring of 1995, with initial occupancy scheduled for the fall. No
further rehabilitation activity is planned for 1995 due to staff
time limitations and funding emphasis on new unit production.
Housing production is considered essential to meet the demand for
affordable housing, a basic element in economic development. The
formation of joint venture partnerships with NWHRDC, and Flathead
Industries for the Handicapped and Flathead County, along with
participation of the Glacier Bankcorp and FHLB, allowed the city to
submit innovative grant applications and to leverage limited local
resources into a major public investment in new affordable housing
for Kalispell. We should be proud of this years' accomplishments
in affordable housing production.
Because the U.S. Congress and the administration has effectively
put municipalities and states on notice that it is getting out of
the affordable housing grant business, the staff continues to
develop innovative strategies for attracting multiple source
financing for housing production.
The department's COMMERCIAL�REHABILITATION LOAN program funded or
closed 13 of the 19 loan applications submitted during 1994. The
city's investment of $52,831 of tax increment used for interest
5
subsidy leveraged $380,650 in bank loans and $1,737,735 in private
capital invested in commercial property located within the tax
increment district. The percent of private investment leveraged
during 1994 was 3,289 percent.
The department handled the sale of 17,500 square feet of land
located at the corner of Third Street East and Main Street, a
temporary parking lot purchased by the city in the early 80's. The
parcel was purchased by Valley Bank to enable them to build a new
23,000+ square foot Valley Bank and computer services headquarters.
The project is expected to be underway during the spring of 1995
and will be valued in excess of $2 million dollars.
Additionally, the department administered the sale of the 7,000
square foot (Tatoo Parlor) parcel it purchased in 1991 as a slum
clearance project. The land was purchased from the City by Glacier
Bankcorp to satisfy parking demand for their growing operations in
Kalispell's CBD. Glacier Bankcorp has expanded into the former
Woolworth building located adjacent to the Bankcorp headquarters
office. Northwest Human Resources occupies the rest of the
building for a full conversion of the former Woolworth store from
retail to office occupancy.
1994 heralds the purchase and completion of the expansion of Depot
Park, north between the Depot Building and Market Street. This
project represented the first phase of implementing the Theme and
Density Objectives and Goals for the redevelopment area. The next
phase, converting First Street East and West, between First Avenue
West and Third Avenue East, into a one-way (east bound) landscaped
and lighted parking and pedestrian corridor with emphasis on
pedestrian movement and parking rather than through traffic, was
designed and approved for bid during 1994 and should be under
construction this spring and completed before the start of school
next year. The design project and construction activity will
include the "Avenue of the Arts", a one block redevelopment project
on Second Avenue East between 2nd and 3rd Streets East. This
latter project will dovetail with the planned expansion of Norwest
Bank's drive -through bank and parking lot.
At the last City Council meeting of 1994, the accepted School
District #5's offer to sell the city Central School for $1.00.
During the year, the department obtained a detailed evaluation of
the building and cost estimate to cure the problems identified and
to restore the property. Armed with the study, cost estimate and
title to the property, the. city will now proceed. with developing
formal offering documents in an attempt -to attract developer(s)
willing to redevelop and restore the property. . The city has
suggested that the marketing effort be completed within 120 days so
that any further financial considerations may be considered in the
FY '95-96 budget.
During 1994, Tidyman's sold the redevelopment parcel located north
1.1
of their store to the Whitefish Credit Union. They plan to break
ground next spring on a new Kalispell headquarters and drive -
through bank. The parcel south of Tidyman's'is being redeveloped
for a retail store. Both projects will be complete and fully on
the tax rolls before the end of 1995. The owners of the Market
Place property located between the railroad tracks and Center
Street continue exploring redevelopment alternatives.
The department continues marketing efforts on the KDC site in an
attempt to attract a mixed -use multi -story redevelopment of the
land. During the year, the department entertained and reviewed two
offers from developers seeking to develop all or portions of the
site(s). However, the final offers received did not meet the
minimum offering requirements nor did they satisfy the City
Council's stated objectives for redevelopment. As this report is
being written, staff is preparing a recommendation on another
proposal from a developer desiring to purchase and redevelop the
14,800 square foot site adjacent to Liberty Theater to construct a
10,500 square foot office/professional building.
The Flathead County High School parking lot project, in the
planning stages for years, was implemented in 1994. The lot
adjacent to the school was demolished and reconstructed. The old
tennis courts removed and new courts will be constructed at the
Flathead Community College Campus this coming spring. Negotiations
and scheduled purchase of the balance of residential property
located west of the high school is complete, demolition will
commence this spring, and the balance of the high school parking
project will be completed before the start of school in the fall of
1995.
During the year the department assisted with the transition of the
city's parking program to the newly created Kalispell Parking
Commission. During 1995 it will assist with the creation of a
parking Special Improvement District to address parking demands.
The department invested a great deal of time during 1994 in
exploring alternative redevelopment options for the Equity Supply
Company real estate with the railroad tracks in place. The Equity
Board of Directors has elected not to continue the effort and will
be developing their plans to enable them to continue profitable
operations with the existing boundaries of their current real
estate holdings. It is possible there will be a great deal of
activity on the Equity site, located at Fifth and Center,
consolidating and modernizing its feed, seed and fertilizer
operations in that location. This will enable Equity to redevelop
their holdings located north of the Kalispell Center Mali between
the railroad tracks and Idaho Street. Staff will continue working
with Equity to encourage and assist where possible with their
redevelopment plans.
►]
In closing, as you can see, it was an extremely busy year for our
municipal government involving the completion of several major
projects. Looking ahead to 1995 you can expect more of the same.
Your agenda will include policy discussion concerning annexations
and other growth related issues, goal setting to assist as a guide
in directing and shaping your community and the future of our
municipal airport, just to name a few. Again, it has been my
pleasure to work for a pro active city council and to lead so many
fine and dedicated public employees in their pursuit of excellence.

DEPARTMENT OF BUILDING & ZONING
COMMENTS FOR MONTH OF DECEMBER, 1994
Building Activi
Building activity remained high in December with the number of building permits
nearly double that of either of the last two years.
Fourteen single family homes were permitted during the month. There were no multi-
family starts, although work continues on several multifamily units.
In the commercial arena, work started on Secondwind Fitness Center, Meridian Office
Complex and a new Northwestern Tire Store in Evergreen. Work continued on the
Dollar Store and North Country Auto and Marine.
Zoning Activi
Just 2 sign permits were issued in December. The zoning administrator has been
receiving an increased number of complaints regarding signs. Now that the holidays
have passed, it is hoped that a certain number of the problems will resolve themselves.
A stepped -up enforcement effort will commence in January.
Work on the 5-Year Extension of Services Plan continues, with completion expected
in late January.
Board of Adjustment
The Board of Adjustment considered three applications for variances in December.
The board granted two of the three, with the third continued to the January 3, 1995
meeting. The two variances that were granted both involved modifications to existing,
non -conforming residential structures.
Personnel
There are no personnel changes to report. Dick Fura, Building Inspector, fell while
walking to work and was injured. He will return to work January 9th, with a two
week period of light duty.
General
The building department collected about 180 prepaid sewer connection fees in the last
few months. The monthly sewer and water report reflects information on addresses
and owners hooking up.

RE: December Activity Report

December marks the return of our annual holiday programs, and specifically the increasingly
popular "Santa's Calling". Seven volunteers called 161 children from all over the Valley. A couple
of the questions and comments were: "Have you been a good little boy? Response - "Is this twenty
questions?" The following request to Santa, who has solutions for everything, was: "my dog is
always pottying on the rug, what should I do about it?"
A total of 16 seniors participated in cross-country ski lessons and ski tours in Glacier National
Park and Black TO Mountain. About 115 Senior Citizens of the Kalispell area enjoyed a sightseeing
evening of Christmas Lights with goodies and hot beverages following at the Kalispell Senior Center.
Our ice skating started early this year with Woodland Park freezing and skatable by December
12. Response to lessons are increasing.
The Aerial Lift was published and bids will be opened on January 18, 1995.

In addition to the contacts mentioned, about 961 individuals toured the
Kalispell Fire Department in 1994. The "Kalispell Fire Department Chimney
Brush Program", was used by 246 people in 1994. The Kalispell Firefighters
(no tax payer money), bought the brushes and rods to be loaned to anyone who
needs to clean their chimney. The "Kalispell Firefighters Chimney Brush
Program", remains a viable fire prevention and education tool.
Safety contacts encompassed virtually all age groups and many segments of our
local population.
The Kalispell Fire Department still has smoke detectors to be given to anyone
who can not afford to purchase them. If people are unable to put up the
smoke detectors, our firefighters will install them.
As of January 1, 1990, a state law went into effect that requires smoke
detectors be installed in any rental property. The Kalispell Fire Department
will continue to enforce this law as it is sure to save many lives.
In 1994 367 fire hydrants were flowed , lubricated and cleaned. Any hydrant
that there was a problem with, the Water Department was contacted and the
hydrant was repaired, or replaced as needed.

ADDISON H. CLARK
Chief of Police
DONALD A. HOSSACK
Asst. Chief
The 1994 Christmas season ip past and another year is also
history. The K.P.D. has had a busy year but we are all grateful of
the fact that no officers were seriously hurt and that our
community also didn't experience any violent crimes.
The Kalispell Police Department filed a total of 238 charges
against adults and arrested 125 of those adults. K.P.D. officers
also arrested 39 juveniles on assorted charges.
A total of 35 DUI citations were issued including 1 DUI #5!
Some people never learn!
The K.P.D. officers also investigated a total of 83 traffic
accidents which included 9 accidents involving injuries.
Acting on a lead from a local bank, K.P.D. officers
apprehended a Utah woman who had been writing thousands of dollars
worth of bad checks to local merchants. As a result of her arrest
the Kalispell Police Department recovered over $37,000.00 worth of
merchandise which was then returned to the local businesses.
The S.R.T. (Special Response Team) again conducted training
during the month of December. This included weapon training and
instructor Tom Osborne, also gave the officers a history of
S.W.A.T., or S.R.T..
Lt . Paul Hahn traveled to Rigby Idaho and attended a 4-day TAC
Team Commander school.

FOR
DECEMBER 1994
Lt. Hahn
Sgt. Garner
Officer Holt
officer Mulcahey
Officer Brenden
Officer Newton
Officer Bardwell
Officers were familiarized with their newly assigned weapons.
All of the officers zeroed their assigned long guns at 100 yards.
All of the weapons fired a constant group after they were zeroed.
Officers were then instructed in the five shooting positions for
the Long Gun. These positions were demonstrated by Range
Instructor Bardwell. The guns were zeroed with factory .223 ammo
with 60 grain bullets.
Officers fired about five rounds from each of the positions at
50 yards. Targets were inspected for accuracy. Officers were then
instructed in the 25 yard TRC Handgun Course. The officers fired
the course and inspected their targets after each round to evaluate
accuracy. Officers used standard .45 caliber practice ammo.
Tom Osborne gave a guest instruction on S.W.A.T. incidents.
The infamous FLA incident that occurred in Los Angeles was
discussed. Basic procedures used and some historical background on
S.W.A.T. development was covered. Officers also finished tentative
plans for the S.W.A.T. van. The entire day of instruction lasted
eight and one half hours.
