    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    The City of Missoula Design Review Board is reviewing an application from Palazzo Properties, LLC to deviate from the Common Activity Area requirements outlined in Missoula Zoning Code Title 20, Section 20.65.020.C. The proposed project is a twelve-unit, three story apartment building. The property is located at 1841 South 7th Street West and is bisected by an irrigation ditch.

    The three sections of the ordinance requiring approval by alternative compliance are the requirements for the common outdoor recreation space to be: 1) contiguous, 2) centrally located, and 3) for the minimum dimension of each space to be 40 feet. As it stands, the required amount of recreation area can be provided in two segments on either side of the irrigation ditch; which is not permissible by code because each individual piece is smaller than would normally be required, is not contiguous due to the ditch, and is not centrally located. The applicant proposes that intent of the ordinance is met with useable outdoor spaces.

    This property is located in the Franklin to the Fort Neighborhood Council.
