The Whitefish Planning Board on Thursday, Feb. 21, will hold a public hearing on a request for a 12-lot subdivision off Colorado Avenue and Denver Street.
FNB Investments is requesting a preliminary plat to develop the subdivision, which would be a mixture of 10 townhomes and two single-family lots. The gross density would be 10.22 dwelling units per acre.
The property is located at 540 Colorado Avenue. It is zoned WR-3.
The majority of the lots would have frontage along either Colorado or Denver. However, they would be accessed from an internal privately maintained dead-end alley.
One of the single-family lots would be accessed from the private internal road.
The city Planning Department received one comment regarding the development asking for a sidewalk to be constructed along Denver Street. Planning staff is recommending approval of the application with 20 conditions.
The planning board meets at 6 p.m. at City Hall.
