07:46:36 PM (00:03:08) Development Review Manager Brian Krueger gave an overview of the major
subdivision proposal including access right of ways and connecting existing roads in the area. The
proposal does not include an upgrade to West Kagy Blvd.; however, the city does have planned capital
improvements to West Kagy Blvd. for 2024. Currently, there is not a final design by the city for West
Kagy Blvd.
One public comment received was concerned with the quality of the Kagy improvements and the
availability of sewer and water in the area. The proposed sewer and water improvements for the
subdivision will go by the property owner, so that property would be available to connect with the
sewer and water and perhaps be available for annexation.
08:01:13 PM (00:17:45) Mr. Krueger responded to Board members’ questions about the right in/right
out access on State Street onto South 19th Ave. and two accesses onto Kagy Blvd. Mr. Krueger described
that Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) controls access on South 19th Ave. and they can
override the City on access.
Mr. Krueger clarified how the city enforces subdivision requirements of building sidewalks on the
property within a three year timeframe of a registering the plat.
Mr. Krueger explained that the parkland dedication was a requirement for the residential portion of this
subdivision and that the zoning of this area does conform to the growth policy. He also explained that it
was the County’s decision not to run Stucky Road into the city, therefore, the need to change the name
to Campus Blvd. Mr. Krueger further clarified the common space areas on the plat are for storm water
storage.
08:20:08 PM (00:36:40) Cordell Pool, Stahly Engineering described the long-term project and what steps
could be completed before the actual development of the project area. The current proposal is just the
backbone of the future development.
08:34:16 PM (00:50:48) Public Comments:
Constance Dratz, resides on North Kagy, expressed her concerns about safety issues on Kagy, especially
with the number of day care centers in the area and snow storage along the side of the road. The
upgrade of Kagy is good, but she is concerned about the delays on the Kagy’s improvements. She also
expressed an interest in future water and sewer connections for her properties.
08:38:09 PM (00:54:41) MOTION: Having reviewed and considered the application materials, public
comment, and all the information presented, I hereby adopt the findings presented in the staff report
for application 19090 and move to recommend approval of the subdivision with conditions and subject
to all applicable code provisions. Deputy Mayor Mehl
