    PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

    The City of Missoula Development Services has received a request from Mike Morgan of Hoffmann-Morgan Associates, representing the owner of the property addressed 1900 Strand Ave, for an Administrative Adjustment to increase the number of dwelling units allowed from twelve to thirteen units. Title 20, Section 20.85.110.B.7 authorizes the zoning officer to approve an administrative adjustment to permit the construction of one additional residential dwelling unit on a parcel that would otherwise be prohibited solely because the parcel does not comply with the minimum parcel area standards of the subject zoning district. A request can be made for an adjustment only if the existing parcel area is at least 95% of the required minimum area.

    The subject property is zoned RM1-45 (Residential Multi-Dwelling), which requires 1,000 square feet of parcel area per dwelling unit. The property is 12,685 square feet or 97.58% of the required 13,000 square feet needed for 13 dwelling units.

    The subject property is located in the Franklin to the Fort Neighborhood Council.

    UPDATE: On February 9th, 2022 Design Review Board DENIED the request to very from activity area standards. This case is now closed for comment.


    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.

    Project Description:

    Development Services has received a request from Paul Forsting of IMEG, on behalf of Wheat Montana, for a variance from the drive-through setback requirements of Title 20 (Title 20.60.110.C.2). The applicant has proposed a drive through along Reserve Street and South 3rd Street West, located at 2520 S. 3rd Street West. The applicant is proposing to install a drive-through that will not meet the 20-foot setback requirements. The width of the right-of-way, and the layout of the kitchen prevent installing a drive through at an alternate location.

    The drive-through will be setback 8.5 feet from the right-of-way along Reserve Street, and a minimum 3.8 feet from right of way off of S. 3rd Street W. The site is zoned C1-2 Neighborhood Commercial. The drive-through has previously been reviewed and approved for compliance with Design Excellence.
