OLD BUSINESS:
Kalispell Regional Medical Center— 310 Sunnyview; ER Addition/Renovation. Sorensen stated
that we received their request for the PUD Amendment that would allow them to encroach into the
ROW. Nothing new in regard to the bike path. This will be on the agenda for next week.
Spring Prairie Phase IV — overall site development plan. We are waiting on written approval from
MDT regarding access approval of the original layout and traffic light approval. Freyholtz noted that
they are still reviewing the signal plans. Fincher will send Karen Blumenstein the information
regarding his office approving the plantings that will go on the project. She has worked out getting
dirt from the bypass project, so they won't be taking anything from Kidsports. LHC is working with
Kidsports to transport fill across Kidsports' property in lieu of doing some work for Kidsports for
free. Fincher stated that Blumenstein has approved the picnic area, and he thought the shelters would
be 21' x 24' metal kits. He informed her that the shelters will need to be reviewed by ARC and the
Building Dept. This will be on the agenda for next week.
Meridian Mini Storage — expansion of existing facility. They met with the City last week. No one
has received anything new on this yet. Haskins stated that Jim Thompson wrote an MOU regarding
how they will pay their impact fees that is convoluted. Sorensen suggested the total impact fees be
calculated to give them a clearer idea on the whole project. Haskins needs the full submittal to
complete these calculations. They want to build the buildings in phases, and pave sections at a time
as well. The impervious areas need to be determined. They will be relocating the storm drainage area
further to the east of the property. They have agreed to do the landscaping up front. We are still
waiting for a full submittal, including the Engineering Report. This will be on the agenda for next
week.
Kalispell Oral Surgery —180 Timberwolf, new clinic. Updated plans have been received. Sorensen
stated that he will call them to submit plans to Building and Planning, too. Fincher stated they need
more of a complete landscaping plan. They don't have the sizes filled out or approximates. Sorensen
stated the landscape plans that were submitted were for ARC, but not necessarily intended for a full
review. Haskins noted that DNRC doesn't' want to commit to the full sized retention pond, because
he believes they don't want to be responsible to participate in it. They are proposing a pond sized for
the Oral Surgery but placed where it will be a regional retention pond for the rest of those lots. We
don't really have a provision for that. It's either detain on site or a regional size for everything. They
are trying to find that gray area in between, so it's probably going to change. This will be on the
agenda for next week.
NEW BUSINESS: None.
PLANNING OFFICE ITEMS: No meeting in November.
OTHER REPORTS:
The Marriott — Dedman spoke with Kevin Tikka regarding LHC putting in the fire hydrant. They
want to store combustible materials on site and Dedman approved it as they should have the hydrant
in within 48 hours. There is a hydrant right across the highway. Dedman stated they have permission
to begin the first three buildings because they can work off the pavement, but for the rest of them the
road has to be put in.
The meeting was adjourned at 10:22 a.m.
