A RESOLUTION TO PROVIDE FOR THE ALTERATION OF THE BOUNDARIES OF THE
CITY OF KALISPELL BY INCLUDING THEREIN, AS AN ANNEXATION, A TRACT
OF LAND DESCRIBED IN EXHIBIT "A", TO BE KNOWN AS HIRD ADDITION NO.
266; TO ZONE SAID PROPERTY LOW DENSITY MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL,
RA-1, TO AMEND,THE CITY ZONING MAP ACCORDINGLY AND TO DECLARE AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Kalispell has received a petition from
the City of Kalispell on behalf of Deborah Hird, the owner of the
property described in Exhibit "A", attached hereto and thereby made
a part hereof, requesting that the City of Kalispell annex the
territory into the City, and
WHEREAS, the Flathead Regional Development Office has made a
report on Hird Addition No. 266, City Zone Request, #KA-95-6, dated
June 11 1995, and
WHEREAS, the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning
Commission recommended that the territory be annexed into the City
of Kalispell and be zoned Low Density Multi -Family Residential, RA-
1, and 6
WHEREAS, based upon the report of the Flathead Regional
Development Office and the recommendation of the Kalispell City -
county Planning Board and Zoning Commission, the City Council of
the City of Kalispell finds that the recommended zoning
classification for the territory is appropriate based upon the
following criterion:
Does the Requested Zone Comply with the Master Plan?
The subject property is within the jurisdiction of the
Kalispell City -County Master Plan. According to the map
of the master plan, the property is currently designated
as "High Density Residential". RA-1 is considered in
compliance with the Master Plan.
Does the Requested Zone Lessen Congestion in the Streets?
Congestion in the streets is caused by an overburden of
traffic on the street system. The zone in this case
would not cause undue congestion because traffic
generation is a function of the number of dwelling units
that are allowed within a given area. If the property is
redeveloped it would be in a manner that is consistent
with the existing City RA-1 zone in the area. In
addition, the Master Plan for this area calls for this
property to be developed with RA-1 type development. A
private easement provides access to 5th Avenue East which
provides the only access to the site from the north.
1
Will the Requested Zone Secure Safety From Fire, Panic
and Other Dangers?
Development within this zone is subject to development
standards including: lot coverage, maximum building
height, and the provision of off-street parking. Any
development of the property is subject to review by the
City, and requires the issuance of building, plumbing,
and mechanical permits. These requirements and review
processes help ensure that development of the property
subsequent to the zone change is done in a safe manner.
In addition, 5th Avenue East is a through street. No
significant negative impact is expected.
Will the Requested Change Promote the Health and General
Welfare?
The purpose of the City's zoning ordinance is to promote
the general health and welfare and does so by
implementing the City -County Master Plan. The City -
County Master Plan would support the requested zone
change. Designation of this area as RA-1 would have
little or no impact. Any traffic generation that the
proposed change allows would be mitigated at the time of
redevelopment of the property. Any specific impact to
stormwater runoff, sewers, and water would also be
addressed at the time of development proposals.
The zoning ordinance provides a mechanism for public
input and review for all zone change requests. This
process offers an opportunity to ensure that any changes
to the Official Zoning Map are done in the general public
interest. No significant negative impact is expected.
Will the Requested Zone Provide for Adequate Light and
Air?
The development standards of the zoning ordinance and
subdivision regulations (i.e.: parking, landscaping,
clear vision setback, roadway improvements, etc.) would
ensure that light and air are adequately provided. Any
development beyond a duplex would also require approval
of a Conditional Use Permit.
Will the Requested Zone Change Prevent the Overcrowding
of Land?
Overcrowding of land occurs when development out -paces or
exceeds the environmental or service limitations of the
2
property. A Special Improvements District is being
created to install sewer in 5th Avenue East. This sewer
would prevent the degradation of the environment by
septic system contamination, thus limit any impacts due
to overcrowding of the land. The Subdivision, Zoning,
and Building regulations control the intensity
requirements that a property can be developed with.
Adequate infrastructure is in place or can be provided at
the time of development to accommodate the land uses
allowed in the requested zone. No significant negative
impact is expected.
Will the Requested Zone Avoid Undue Concentration of
People?
Concentration of people relates to the land use permitted
by a particular zone. The proposed change would have
little unexpected impact on residential density in the
area. Infrastructure exists or can be provided which
supports the proposed change. The zoning ordinance
covers the intensity of use that would be permitted in
this zone. An undue concentration of people would result
if the property is developed at a level which exceeds the
environmental or service carrying capacity of the land
which would not happen. The proposed zoning and its
regulations would ensure that the site is properly
developed. No significant negative impact is expected.
Will the Requested Zone Facilitate the Adequate Provision
of Transportation, Water, Sewer, Schools, Parks and Other
Public Requirements?
The additional demands for transportation, water, and
sewer will be evaluated pursuant to individual
development proposals; infrastructure exists, or can be
provided, in the vicinity which should be able to serve
development/redevelopment of this property. Schools and
parks would not be significantly more impacted under the
existing County zone than would be under the proposed
City zone. The proposal exists close to these services
and would impact those services to a lesser degree than
if the change in zone were to occur farther away. No
significant negative impact is expected.
Does the Requested Zone Give Consideration to the
Particular Suitability of the Property for Particular
Uses?
The subject property is well suited for uses permitted
within the RA-1 zone because of availability of services
3
and access. The property is of adequate size for the
type of uses permitted and conditionally allowed in the
proposed zone. No significant negative impact is
expected.
Does the Requested Zoning Give Reasonable Consideration
to the Character of this District?
The property in question is well suited for the type
development anticipated under the requested zone because
of the topography, access, regional location, access to
schools, access to urban services, and size of the
proposal. In addition the Master Plan for the area
anticipates this type of zone in this area. No
significant negative impact is expected.
Would the Proposed Zoning Conserve the Value of the
Buildings?
The subject request would not significantly impact
buildings. There are no known uses that would be
affected by this zone. A change from County R-4 to the
City RA-1 zone will not significantly impact, erode, or
devalue the neighborhood beyond the type of uses that are
currently allowed by existing zoning or that exist in the
area as this is a residential zone. No significant
negative impact is expected.
Will the Requested Zone Change Encourage the Most
Appropriate Use of the Land Throughout the Jurisdiction?
Appropriateness of a zone is determined by the Kalispell
City -County Master Plan. The Plan and the existing
zoning classifications in the area identify this area for
the uses permitted within the requested zone. Therefore,
the change would encourage the most appropriate use of
the land. No significant negative impact is expected.
WHEREAS, on the 3rd day of April, 1989 the City Council of the
City of Kalispell adopted, pursuant to Section 7-2-4610, Montana
Code Annotated, an Extension of Services Plan which anticipates
development of City services for approximately five years in the

the extension of municipal services or maintenance of existing
4
services within the area of Hird Addition No. 266, subject to
annexation, including water, sewer, storm drainage, streets,

WHEREAS, said "mini -extension of services plan" provides for
financing the extension of municipal services or maintenance of
existing services by utilizing funds allocated and expended,
pursuant to the annual City budget without incurring additional
bonded indebtedness, and
WHEREAS, the City of Kalispell desires to annex said property
in accordance with Title 7, Chapter 2, Part 46, Montana Code
Annotated.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF KALISPELL AS FOLLOWS:

particularly described in Exhibit "A", attached hereto
and thereby made a part hereof, shall be annexed to the

The subject property is within the Service Area Boundary of the City of Kalispell as
described by the Extension of Services Plan adopted by the City of Kalispell on April
3, 1989 (Resolution 13838). This broad -based extension of services plan together
with this "mini -plan" comprise the Extension of Services Plan for the Hird Addition
No. 266 annexation.
EXISTING SERVICES:
Water: The City has a 6 inch water line in 5th Avenue East. This main should have
sufficient capacity to serve this site.
Sewer: No sewer currently exists to serve this site. Sewerage is handled by onsite
disposal methods.
Storm Drainage: No storm drain system exists in the area.
Streets: 5th Avenue East is developed as a two lane local street with access to 18th
Street East and north into Kalispell
Garbage Collection: Available by contract from private companies.
Police Protection: Currently the Flathead County Sheriffs Department.
Fire Protection: South Kalispell Fire Department.

Water: A six Inch water main exists in Sth Avenue East to serve the property. If,
upon redevelopment of this property, this main Is not of sufficient capacity to
serve the new development, a water main must be extended to connect with a
main of sufficient capacity to serve this property or other alternative be installed.
Capacity and any extensions would be evaluated at the review stage of any
development permit.
Sewer: Sewer does not exists to this site. Currently, septic systems are used in this
area. A Special Improvements District is currently being formed to Install a sewer
main In Sth Avenue East. When sewer is installed It would allow the area to

to serve the tract upon annexation. They will be able to provide "service" to this
property on substantially the same basis and in the same manner In which this
service is currently provided to the rest of the municipality.
EXTENSION AND 1+1NANCE STRATEGIES:
The cost of extending such public services as police and fire protection are
expected to be negligible. The general source of money to extend these type of
services Is from the general tax revenues received from this property and other
properties inside the City -limits. A Special improvements District Is being formed
to bring a sewer main to this area. This sewer main extension would be paid for
by the property owners who are a part of the district and those who hook Into the
main. Individual Improvements to the property, Including the extension of water
tines, sewer lines, and stormwater management Improvements, will be the
responsibility of the developer/landowner. Any area -wide Improvements relative
to a comprehensive storm drainage system will be financed In part by the residents
of the entire municipality and in part by special assessments for that purpose.

Re: Recommendation of Zoning for Hird Addition No. 266
Dear Bruce:
The Kalispell City -County Planning Board and Zoning Commission met on June 13,
1995, and held a public hearing on the following agenda item:
A request by the City of Kalispell on behalf of Deborah Hird for annexation to
the City of Kalispell with an initial zoning classification of RA-1 (Low Denisty
Multi -Family Residential). The parcel contains approximately 0.5 acres located
approximately 150 feet east of 5th Avenue East and 1,000 feet south of 18th
Street East. The property is that portion of the NE4 of Section 20, Township
28 North, Range 21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.
John Parsons reviewed the statutory criteria for a zone change and recommended the
zone classification of RA-1 upon annexation of the property be granted.
No one spoke either in favor or in opposition to the requested zone upon annexation.
After adopting the findings of fact in report #KA-95-6, the Board acting as the
Zoning Commission, voted unanimously to recommend that the requested RA-1 zone
be granted upon annexation of the subject property.
This recommendation for zoning is forwarded to the City Council for final action.
Council needs to wait for the minutes of the Planning Board meeting prior to taking
final action on this matter. However, this does not preclude discussion at Council
workshop. Please contact the Commission or the FRDO if you have any questions.

f i CITY ZONEREPORT
The City of Kalispell on behalf of Deborah Hird has petitioned for annexation of a
tract of land into the city limits of Kalispell. This is a report to the Kalispell City -
County Zoning Commission and Kalispell City Council. This report evaluates the
assignment of a City zoning classification as it relates to annexation in accordance
with Section 27.03.010(4) of the Kalispell Zoning Ordinance.
The applicant has petitioned for a zoning classification of RA-1 (Low density
Residential Apartment). Presently, the property is zoned County R-4, under the
Flathead County Zoning Regulations. The Kalispell Zoning Ordinance defines the
intent of the RA-1 Classification as follows:
A residential apartment district to provide areas for multi -family use
and compatible non-residential uses of medium land use intensity. it
should be served with all public utilities and be in close proximity to
municipal services and shopping districts.
PETITIONER:
City of Kalispell, on behalf of
Deborah Hird
305 - 5th Avenue East
Kalispell, MT 59901
SIZE AND LOCATION:
The property is approximately 0.5 acres located on the southeast side of Kalispell,
approximately 150 feet east of 5th Avenue East and 1,000 feet south of 18th Street
East. This site is Tract 4AAA in the NE 1/4, of Section 20, Township 28 North, Range
21 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana. The property is more particularly
described in Exhibit "A".
LAND USE AND ZONING:
A small portion of the westerly part of the property is currently in the City, and
zoned RA-1; the easterly majority of the property (the area to be annexed)
currently has a house and accessory buildings on it, and zoned County R-4. North,
south, and east (zoned County R-4) is developed with residences, west is zoned City
1
RA-1 and is developed with residences. 5th Avenue East Is a local City road
developed with two paved lanes and provides primary access to the property.
AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC SERVICES:
City services are available in and to the general area. A separately prepared
"Extension of Services Piano discusses the provision of public services to this
property.
BACKGROUND:
When the city originally annexed the land area along 5th Avenue East and assigned
an RA-1 zoning classification, the city annexed a strip only 150 feet deep. in the
case of the applicant, this 150 foot depth severed their lot. That is, the western
portion Is in the city and zoned RA-1. The eastern portion of the lot Is zoned
County R-4 (Two family residential). The applicant Is requesting to bring the balance
of the tract into the city with the same RA-1 zoning.
The statutory procedure for evaluating zone changes is set forth by 76-2-303, M.C.A.
Findings of Fact for the zone change request are discussed relative to the criteria
described by 76-2-304, M.C.A.
Does The Requested Zone Comply With The Master Plan?
The subject property Is within the jurisdiction of the Kalispell City -County Master
Plan. According to the map of the master plan, the property is currently
designated as "High Density Residential". RA-1 is considered in compliance with the
Master Plan.
Does The Reauested Zone Lessen Congestion in the Streets?
Congestion in the streets is caused by an overburden of traffic on the street
system. The zone in this case would not cause undue congestion because traffic
generation is a function of the number of dwelling units that are allowed within
a given area. If the property is redeveloped it would be in a manner that is
consistent with the existing City RA-1 zone in the area. in addition, the Master Plan
for this area calls for this property to be developed with RA-1 type development.
A private easement provides access to 5th Avenue East which provides the only
access to the site from the north.
Will The Requested Zone Secure Safety From Fire, Panic And Other Dangers?
Development within this zone is subject to development standards including: lot
coverage, maximum building height, and the provision of off-street parking. Any
development of the property Is subject to review by the City, and requires the
issuance of building, plumbing, and mechanical permits. These requirements and
�:
review processes help ensure that development of the property subsequent to the
zone change is done in a safe manner. In addition, 5th Avenue East is a through
street. No significant negative impact is expected.
Will The Requested Change Promote The Health And General Welfare?
The purpose of the City's zoning ordinance is to promote the general health and
welfare and does so by implementing the City -County Master Plan. The City -County
Master Plan would support the requested zone change. Designation of this area as
RA-1 would have little or no impact. Any traffic generation that the proposed
change allows would be mitigated at the time of redevelopment of the property.
Any specific impact to stormwater runoff, sewers, and water would also be
addressed at the time of development proposals.
The zoning ordinance provides a mechanism for public input and review for all
zone change requests. This process offers an opportunity to ensure that any
changes to the Official Zoning Map are done in the general public interest. No
significant negative impact is expected.
Will The Requested Zone Provide For Adequate Light And Air?
The development standards of the zoning ordinance and subdivision regulations
G.e.: parking, landscaping, clear vision setback, roadway improvements, etc.) would
ensure that light and air are adequately provided. Any development beyond a
duplex would also require approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
Will The Requested Zone Change Prevent The Overcrowding of Land?
Overcrowding of land occurs when development out -paces or exceeds the
environmental or service limitations of the property. A Special Improvements
District is being created to install sewer in 5th Avenue East. This sewer would
prevent the degradation of the environment by septic system contamination, thus
limit any impacts due to overcrowding of the land. The Subdivision, Zoning, and
Building regulations control the intensity requirements that a property can be
developed with. Adequate infrastructure is in place or can be provided at the time
of development to accommodate the land uses allowed in the requested zone. No
significant negative impact is expected.
Will The Requested Zone Avoid Undue Concentration Of People?
Concentration of people relates to the land use permitted by a particular zone.
The proposed change would have little unexpected impact on residential density
in the area. Infrastructure exists or can be provided which supports the proposed
change. The zoning ordinance covers the intensity of use that would be permitted
in this zone. An undue concentration of people would result if the property is
developed at a level which exceeds the environmental or service carrying capacity
of the land which would not happen. The proposed zoning and its regulations
3
would ensure that the site is properly developed. No significant negative Impact
Is expected.
Will The Requested Zone Facilitate The Adequate Provision Of Transportation
Water Sewer, Schools, Parks And Other Public Requirements?
The additional demands for transportation, water, and sewer will be evaluated
pursuant to Individual development proposals; infrastructure exists, or can be
provided, in the vicinity which should be able to serve development/redevelop-
ment of this property. Schools and parks would not be significantly more
impacted under the existing County zone than would be under the proposed City
zone. The proposal exists close to these services and would impact those services
to a lesser degree than if the change In zone were to occur further away. No
significant negative impact is expected.
Does The Requested Zone Give Consideration To The Particular Suitability Of The
Property For Particular Uses?
The subject property is well suited for uses permitted within the RA-1 zone because
of availability of services and access. The property Is of adequate size for the type
of uses permitted and conditionally allowed in the proposed zone. No significant
negative impact is expected.
Does The Requested Zoning Give Reasonable Consideration To The Character Of This
District?
The property in question is well suited for the type development anticipated under
the requested zone because of the topography, access, regional location, access to
schools, access to urban services, and size of the proposal. In addition the Master
Plan for the area anticipates this type of zone in this area. No significant negative
impact is expected.
Would The Proposed Zoning Conserve The Value Of The Buildings?
The subject request would not significantly impact buildings. There are no known
uses that would be affected by this zone. A change from County R-4 to the City RA-
1 zone will not significantly impact, erode, or devalue the neighborhood beyond
the type of uses that are currently allowed by existing zoning or that exist in the
area as this is a residential zone. No significant negative impact is expected.
Will The Reauested Zone Change Encourage The Most Appropriate Use Of The Land
Throughout The Jurisdiction?
Appropriateness of a zone is determined by the Kalispell City -County Master Plan.
The Plan and the existing zoning classifications in the area identify this area for the
uses permitted within the requested zone. Therefore, the change would
encourage the most appropriate use of the land. No significant negative impact
Is expected.

SUMMARY
The tract of land is just over one half acre in size. It has limited access to 5th
Avenue East. The applicant desires to receive city services and must annex to the
City of Kalispell. The RA-1 zone requested abuts existing RA-1 zoning, a portion of
the lot is already annexed to the city and zoned RA-1. in addition, the requested
zoning complies with the City -County Master Plan. The proposed RA-1 zone would
allow, with the adequate provision of sewer, water and access, approximately 7
housing units. The existing R-4 zoning would allow a theoretical density of 6
housing units (3 duplexes on individual lots). Several serious problems currently
limit increased intensity development of this lot including limited access for
anything greater than a single family house, the unusual triangular shape and the
lack of community sewer.
It is recommended that the Kalispell City -County Planning Board and zoning
Commission adopt this FRDO staff report as findings of fact and forward a favorable
recommendation to City Council for the requested RA-1 zone classification upon
annexation.
