Existing Site Conditions
Spring Creek Village PUD consists of 31 acres zoned
Urban Mixed Use with a Community Commercial
Mixed Use land use designation and located within
the West Main Street (Class I) Entryway Corridor.
The flat vacant land within Spring Creek Village has
been historically used for hay and is predominantly
grassland. The Maynard Border Ditch runs north to
south through the western portion of the property.
There is an existing 15 foot ditch easement on the
west side of Maynard Border ditch and 5 feet on the
east side. The vegetation bordering the ditch is
mostly cottonwood, willow, dogwood and wild
rose.
Maynard Ditch looking south from
Fallon Street
The property is located in the northwest portion of town on the northwest corner
of the signalized intersection of Huffine Lane and Ferguson Avenue. The project
site is bound by Huffine Lane, Ferguson Avenue, Resort Drive and Fallon Street.
The adjacent roadways have been improved with
the original platting of Spring Creek Village Minor
Subdivision. Huffine Lane is improved to a 5 lane
arterial highway and the remaining streets are
designed and constructed as 2 lane local streets.
Currently, the site is accessed from Fallon Street at
the Resort Drive intersection and the 2 curb cuts east
of the ditch. Although curb and gutter has already
been installed along Fallon Street and Resort Drive
the sidewalks will be installed with the subdivision
infrastructure that will connect to the existing asphalt
trail along Ferguson Avenue.

toward the Huffine intersection
Utilities and community facilities such as gas, electric, telephone, water and sewer
were installed with the original platting of the Spring Creek Village Minor
Subdivision. The utilities will be accessed from their existing locations within the
utility easements surrounding the property. Water and sewer will be provided to
the subdivision from the 12” water and 8” sewer mains in Fallon Street; 8” water
and 10” sewer mains in Resort Drive; and the 10” water main in Ferguson Avenue.
The area within the ½ mile radius of the property is
an eclectic mix of residential and commercial uses.
Spring Creek Village was originally subdivided as a
minor subdivision over 10 years ago. Since then the
adjacent property within the city limits has
developed into a small neighborhood commercial
area with a bank and a gas station to the east and
professional offices, a health and exercise
establishment, restaurant and residential
condominiums to the
north. The adjacent
land to the west remains vacant but further west and
within a ½ mile radius of the property is an
automobile sales, service and washing complex, a
veterinary clinic and a bank. The land across Huffine
Lane to the south of Spring Creek Village lies within
the county and includes Mountain Meadow Estates
trailer park and Allied Waste.

Development Plan
Development Proposal
Spring Creek Village PUD is a 5 phase subdivision providing a flexible
environment for commercial, office and residential development. The proposed
95 lot subdivision will provide a mix of uses including a lodge, restaurants, bars, a
grocery store, a bank, a variety of retail uses, a movie theater, offices, residential
condominiums, live/work units, a 1.4 acre private park/neighborhood center and
a golf course with a driving range. The Urban Mixed Use zoning prohibits any use
group (i.e., commercial, industrial, offices, institutional and residential) from
exceeding 70% of the total gross building floor area for the development. The
development guidelines will outline the expectations for future lot owners to
insure that this requirement is met. However, we have requested a relaxation
from the zoning requirement for each building to have at least 75% non-
residential uses. There will be buildings within the development that are either
office, retail or residential that will be single purpose buildings and we would like
to maintain the flexibility to allow a couple of the buildings to be entirely
residential.
The preliminary plan for the Conditional Use Permit for a Planned Unit
Development will include a Phase 1 development plan with the remaining sites
and/or phases governed by the covenants and development guidelines. With
appropriate guidelines each future site can be reviewed as a sketch plan. As part
of the PUD a relaxation will be requested to add several uses to the principally
permitted uses within the development. Uses such a golf course and driving
range, a movie theater, a bowling alley and a performing arts center have been
noted as additional land uses in our proposed table. Since these uses will be
proposed as principal permitted uses we will request that the plans undergo the
sketch plan review process instead of a site plan. Also, we request that the entire
development be reviewed with the option of having a bar, restaurant or any
other establishment with on-site consumption of alcohol. The objective is to
provide a cohesive mixed use development that does not require the additional
Conditional Use Permit review process but instead utilizes the development
guidelines to require proposed site plans to incorporate buffers and other
measures within the development to address any concerns with the proposed use.
For noticing purposes we understand that any use proposing on-site consumption
of alcohol would have to at least go through the site plan review process but the
final authority would be left to the Planning Office and offer prospective lot
owners with a more abbreviated review process.
The Urban Mixed Use zoning promotes mixed use building design offering an
opportunity to work and live in close proximity. The intent of the PUD is to
provide a building environment that integrates commercial development and
residential living space. The preliminary plan will be submitted with a site plan
and building elevations for 1 building or multiple buildings within phase 1. The
remaining 4 phases will be built to comply with the development guidelines and
covenants for the subdivision. The guidelines for the PUD will promote
innovative design, flexibility, convenience and walkability.
Infrastructure improvements for phase 1 are planned for spring 2011 upon
preliminary plat approval. Building construction within phase 1 will likely
commence shortly after final site plan/COA approval is granted. Concurrent
construction will be requested for phase 1 to allow the first tenants to start
construction by summer 2011. Spring Creek Village LLC intends to build the lodge
(depicted in the northeast corner of the subdivision) as the initial development. A
majority of the remaining construction will likely be completed by future lot
owners.
The unique lot design is similar to modular lotting. The expansion lots afford
additional flexibility in building design. The narrow lot can either be purchased
by an adjacent lot owner for additional building area, to allow patio seating and
other private outdoor amenities or to be constructed as a throughway between
buildings.
Located within the center of the subdivision is the 1.4 acre park for the
subdivision. The private park is the nexus of the subdivision and our
neighborhood center. All too often parks and open space areas within
commercial developments go unused and become neglected eyesores. In addition
to functionality the park has been designed to integrate commercial uses with the
park to encourage greater use of the outdoor amenity. The 4 tenants which
anchor the park could be a sandwich shop, coffee shop, art gallery, fly fishing
store or other endless possibilities. The park will also provide subdivision tenants
with an area for various sponsored functions such as concerts, promotional events,
exhibits, dining, movies, ice skating, craft fairs and markets.
Buildings in the Urban Mixed Use district are required to have a minimum
building height of 32 feet and 3-stories. We are requesting a relaxation to the
minimum building standards for the district to allow flexibility in design with the
inclusion of some 1 and 2-story buildings with a minimum building height of 25
feet instead of 32 feet. A mix of uses can still be easily accomplished and the 1
and 2-story buildings can be designed to compliment the taller buildings. The
development guidelines will encourage vertical diversity similar to downtown in
order to add visual interest and avoid shading of the streets and sidewalks.
Buildings within Phases 1 and 2 will be defined as having 1 to 3 stories and a 25
foot minimum building height. Phases 3 through 5 of the development will
consist of 1 to 5-story buildings with a minimum 37 foot building height. Features
such as partial mezzanines and proper fenestration will give 1 and 2-story
buildings the appearance of 3-story buildings from the streetscape.
We will encourage shorter buildings on the south side of our streets and taller
buildings on the north side. This is especially important with Montana’s longer
winters. In order to get people and shoppers to walk along the south sides of our
private streets and maintain a vibrant mixed use development it will be our goal
to maximize natural winter sunshine and sunlight on the sidewalks and streets.
Land Use
The mixed used PUD will consist of commercial, offices and residential uses. No
single use within the PUD will exceed 70% of the gross building floor area for the
entire development.

18.44.060.D Level of Service Stan
Improvements to Valley Commons Drive-
ley
ed to install improvements
Based on the level of service the traffic study suggests improving Val
Commons Drive. The Ridge was requir
within Valley Commons Drive as a condition of subdivision and
planned unit development approval. A pork chop was installed to limit
Valley Commons Drive to right in/right out only turning movements.
Upon completion of the improvements within the right of way there
was considerable public disapproval. In response the City Commission
had the pork chop removed and deemed the condition satisfied.
Therefore, the owner requests that in fulfilling the requirements of the
traffic study a condition to make similar improvements to the roadway
be avoided entirely.
