RE: Status Report
1) During the ronth of November this office prosecuted 42
non jury trials, held pretrials on 94 cases for jury
trials, and conducted 12 parking ticket trials. In
December, we had 50 non jury trials and conducted
pretrials for jury trials in 83 cases. Three cases
were actually tried. In January, we have 36 non jury
trials scheduled, 93 pretrials and 6 days set aside
for jury trials. We also have 11 parking ticket cases
set. Two cases were set for appeal in District Court
during the January term, but one was settled on
December 27th, so we have only one District Court
trial on January 8th.
2) This office has completed revisions of the Kalispell
City Code in the following areas: Administration
(Chapter 2), Alcoholic Beverages (Chapter 3), Animals
and Fowl (Chapter 4), and Motor Vehicles and Traffic
(Chapter 17). We can have proofed copies of
Ordinances to the Council whenever they would like to
begin review of the changes. Subdivision Regulations
are being redone by FRDO and will be available
sometime it the Spring of 1996. Several other
chapters will not need extensive revision because of
recently enacted amendments. Within the next few days
I will begin revising the Police, Fire and Offenses
portions of the Code. I anticipate that we will have
all revisions accomplished and be ready to go to the
printers in April of 1996.
3) This office is preparing to deal with the Evergreen
Sewer issue at the direction of the Council. We have
reviewed the report issued by Tim Berry at Morrison
and Maierle. Recent contacts with representatives of
Evergreen indicated that their accountant was
examining the Berry report and would be giving them
his analysis in early January. With all the
development slated and rumored in Evergreen over the

next few years, it is imperative at this point that
Kalispell establish its position and arrive at a
resolution to the problem. Berry's report to a great
extent gives us the tools, and we need to implement a
program which will properly compensate the City for its
efforts.
