Conditional Use for Townhome Exemption Development: Hellgate Village East
UPDATE: On November 23rd, 2020 City Council approved this request with conditions. This case is now closed for comment.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
A conditional use application is under review for a forty-three (43) dwelling unit Townhome Exemption Development (TED). The subject property is located south of the Pleasant View Homes #3 Subdivision near Hellgate Elementary School. If approved, the applicant will create 43 townhome ownership units, each containing one dwelling unit. City Council may vote to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the conditional use request.
The applicant began the planning process with Development Services under Ordinance #3609. This is not the current TED Ordinance. The City Attorney’s Office issued a letter stating that Ordinance #3609 will apply to this project. The subject property is zoned B2-1 Community Business. Per Title 20, Section 20.05.040 Figure 20.05-7 under Ordinance #3609, Townhome Exemption Developments of ten or more units in the B2-1 zoning district require conditional use approval in accordance with the provisions of Title 20, Section 20.85.070.
Review criteria for conditional uses can be found in Section 20.85.070.H of the Missoula Title 20 Zoning Code.
