The Flathead County Board of Adjustment will look at five cases at its upcoming July 5 meeting, including a request to allow for a camp and retreat center in the Blanchard Lake Zoning District.
In a relatively busy meeting, the board will consider issuing conditional use permits or potential zone variances for the cases. The first is from Carolyn Dewey, who seeks to develop a small retreat center on 10 acres on Hideaway Trail. It will involve farming, silvaculture, health and wellness aspects. The land is currently zoned for agriculture.
Steven and Cynthia Norred are requesting a zone variance for property in the Bigfork Zoning District, which does not allow for accessory structures except fences or hedges in a front yard. The Bigfork Land Use Advisory Committee will consider this item on June 30.
Collin and Treena Mitts have requested a conditional use permit for a home-based business in the Labrant-Lindsey Lane Zoning District. The land use advisory committee there was scheduled to consider the permit on June 27 after the Beacon went to print.
Carrie McPherson has requested a conditional use permit to build a two phase, 349 rental unit, six-building mini-storage facility on property within the Blanchard Lake Zoning District. Each phase would include three buildings, and the facility would be on 5.7 acres.
And finally, Mark and Karol Hickcox have requested a conditional use permit to establish a bed and breakfast in the West Glacier Zoning District on 0.5 acres on Riverbend Drive.
The July 5 Board of Adjustment meeting takes place at 6 p.m. on the second floor of the Earl Bennett Building in Kalispell.
