    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    An application is under review for a subdivision exemption involving six or more lots at the subject property at the intersection of Inez Street and Idaho Street, legally described as Lots 4-12 in Block 7 of Eddy Addition, located in Section 21, Township 13 North, Range 19 West, P.M.M. The proposal includes an aggregation from nine (9) to eight (8) lots and a boundary line relocation of the eight (8) lots, per MCA 76-3-207(f).

    UPDATE: On August 30, 2022 the Zoning Officer approved the administrative adjustment for parking incentives for transit-served locations. This case is now closed for comment.


    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    The City of Missoula Development Services has received a request from Steve Adler of Adler Architects, Inc, representing the owner of the property, Pighorn, Inc., addressed 502 S 4th St W, for an Administrative Adjustment to decrease the number of required spaces for the property from 5 to 4. Title 20, Section 20.85.110.B.8 authorizes the zoning officer, after consulting with the City Engineer, to approve an administrative adjustment to approve up to a 15% reduction in the number of off-street parking spaces required for nonresidential uses located within 500 feet of a transit stop that is served at intervals of 30 minutes or less between 7:00 am and 9:00 am and between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm.

    The subject property is zoned C1-4 (Neighborhood Commercial), which requires 2 off-street parking spaces per dwelling unit and 1 space for every 480 square feet of commercial (office) space. Since the property utilizes shared parking, the residential parking spaces may be reduced by up to 50%, so 2 spaces are required for the dwelling units. The commercial office space is 1241 square feet, so they would be required to provide 2.6 spaces. However, since they are located within 500 feet of a transit stop that is served at intervals of 30 minutes or less at peak times, they are eligible for up to a 15% reduction in the number of required spaces, which brings their required spaces to 2.

    The subject property is located in the Riverfront Neighborhood Council.

    UPDATE: On November 15th, 2021 City Council adopted the ordinance to amend the Mill Site Special District Zoning. This case is now closed for comment.


    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    An application is under review for rezoning of the Mill Site Special Zoning District. The subject property is located in the Mill Site Subdivision surrounding Wyoming Street, between California and Hickory Street on the south side of the Clark Fork River. The property is located in the Riverfront Neighborhood Council and City Council Ward 3.

    The rezone request is for an amendment to the Mill Site Special Zoning District standards in Subdistrict B/C to remove a restriction on the types of uses that are allowed on the street level along Moose Creek Trail between Wyoming and Silver Parkway and along Silver Parkway between Moose Creek Trail and Big Timber Lane. Currently, the allowed uses include restaurants/cafés, restaurants with cabaret license, taverns/nightclubs, retail trades, and sidewalk cafés. The proposal requests eliminating that restriction and allowing any of the uses that are otherwise allowed in Subdistrict B/C.

    A special zoning district is an area that has adopted a specific set of regulations, in addition to or in place of standard city zoning regulations, to achieve an intentional pattern of development and design. To modify a section of the zoning ordinance for the special district the entire ordinance must be amended; however, staff is only reviewing the proposed change to Subdistrict B/C with this request.

    City Council will either approve, approve with conditions, or deny the rezoning request.


    PROJECT COMMENT DEADLINE:

    Public comment will be taken by City Council until the public hearings are closed. Comments can be submitted through Engage Missoula, via email to the planner noted below, by mailing in a letter to the City of Missoula office at 435 Ryman Street, Missoula, MT 59802, or during the public meetings.

    UPDATE: On June 7, 2021 City Council approved the subdivision exemption. This case is now closed for comment.


    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    An application is under review for a boundary line relocation subdivision exemption for Lots 6-18 in Block 6 of the Millsite Phase 1 - Wyoming North Subdivision. The proposal includes the rearrangement of the boundaries between the 13 existing lots that were established during the original subdivision of the land.

    Montana state law authorizes boundary line relocations to be exempt from subdivision review, but still subject to compliance with municipal regulations. Boundary line relocations of five or fewer lots are reviewed and approved administratively by City Staff. Per MCA 76-3-207(2), the rearrangement of six or more lots may occur when reviewed and approved by the governing body (City Council). The boundary line relocation must maintain compliance with the conditions of the approved subdivision and with local zoning requirements.

    UPDATE: On February 25th, 2021 the Public Forum took place and was concluded. This case is now closed for comment.


    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    Missoula County has requested a public forum for an exemption from the zoning requirements of the Design Excellence Overlay at 140 N. Russell Street. The exemptions pertain to build-to-width requirements, parking lot setback and placement, and landscaping design. The proposal includes the modification of an existing parking lot and the addition of new parking on the property. The site contains two existing buildings that house the Missoula County Elections Center.

    The City of Missoula Board of Adjustment is authorized by state law to hold a public hearing, known as a public forum, when a public agency proposes to use public land contrary to the local zoning regulations. In this case, Missoula County is proposing to use land differently than City zoning regulations require. The Board of Adjustment does not have the power to deny or condition the approval of the project. The proposed use is permitted regardless of the outcome of the hearing. However, we invite you to submit public comment stating your opinion on the proposal.

    UPDATE: On September 2nd, City Council adopted the ordinance to rezone this property. This case is now closed for comment.


    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    An application is under review for a request to rezone the property located at 508 S. 3rd Street West to apply the /AR Adaptive Reuse Overlay. The property is currently zoned C1-4 Neighborhood Commercial with the /DE-C Design Excellence Corridor Typology 2 Overlay.

    The applicant makes this request in anticipation of increasing the number of units in the existing multi-dwelling building from sixteen (16) to twenty-two (22) dwelling units, which will exceed the allowed density under the current zoning. A project within the /AR District may exceed the maximum density established by the underlying zoning district for the parcel, so long as the added density is allowable by building code.

    The building is a contributing building to the Southside Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places, is eligible for individual listing on the National Register of Historic Places, and is listed on Missoula’s Local Inventory of Historic Resources. The applicant plans to restore and renovate the building using the Secretary of the Interior’s standards for historic building rehabilitation.

    Based on these historical characteristics, the Historic Preservation Commission and the Historic Preservation Officer determined that the project qualifies for the /AR District Overlay.
