OLD BUSINESS:
Kalispell Tap and Games- 2400 Hwy 93 S: remodel to arcade/tap house – Updated landscape plan is
still needed. Chad pointed out that the boulevard landscaping needs to be included in that plan. Owner is
requesting to separate the onsite permitting from the building permitting due to time constraints for the
tap room license. PJ advised that we cannot separate the permitting, but we may be able to work with
them through bonding and phasing. Departments need to approve the plan as a whole initially. Building
advised we can provide a letter to the state advising this is an ongoing project and moving forward if that
will help with the deadlines. This will be on the agenda next week.
