Annexation & Rezoning: Tract 1 of Certificate of Survey No. 5023

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Development Services received a petition from Andrew Bernard of Inland Group, on behalf of property owner Mullan Land Holding, LLC, requesting annexation into the City of Missoula of Tract 1 of Certificate of Survey No. 5023. The applicants also seek to amend an existing development agreement to allow the construction of a 170-unit multi-dwelling building and associated structures on that tract of land and on the surrounding Tract 4 of Certificate of Survey No. 6817. The 170-unit building is proposed to be a 55+ age-restricted residential community.
The property is located north of Mullan Road, east of Flynn Lane, and west of Mary Jane Boulevard. Both tracts are located in the NW ¼ of Section 18, Township 13 North, Range 19 West, Missoula County, Montana. Tract 1 is addressed as 2100 Flynn Lane. Tract 4 is addressed as 1955 Mary Jane Boulevard.
The property encompasses a total of 9 acres. Tract 1 of Certificate of Survey No. 5023 is currently zoned Neighborhood Residential in the County, with a land use designation in the 2045 Our Missoula City Growth Policy of Urban Mixed-Use Low. Upon annexation into the City of Missoula, the applicant has requested City zoning of B2-1 Community Business, which would match the surrounding property to the east, north, and south.
