Kalispell City Council on Monday will consider granting final approval for the Quail Meadows Subdivision.
The subdivision containing 39 single-family lots on about 10 acres is located on Tronstad Road. The developer Quail Meadows, LLC is seeking final plat approval for the subdivision that sits near the intersection of U.S. 93 and Tronstad.
The meeting starts at 7 p.m. in the City Hall, 201 First Avenue East.
Council approved in April 2022 the preliminary plat for the subdivision with 31 conditions. All of the conditions have been met or adequately addressed, according to a memo to Council.
Also on the agenda, Council will vote on setting a public hearing on Nov. 7 for a request from Kidlay & Stratton for an amendment to the planned unit development for Starling subdivision on the west side of Stillwater Road to the west of Timberwolf Parkway. The request is to increase the density on one of the lots from the originally proposed 36 multi-family units to 48 units.
In addition, the developer would like to change the driveway accesses on six corner lots identified in the second phase to allow for accessory dwelling units. The change would add the option for one driveway access to be allowed on the alley and the second driveway to be allowed on the street.
