The Kalispell Planning Commission has taken a significant step towards enhancing local housing options with the approval of the Silver Brook Village development proposal. Monterrey's Developments, LLC submitted plans for an amendment to the Silver Brook Plan Unit Development (PUD), which encompasses 11.7 acres at 441 and 465 Diamond Peak Drive. This ambitious project aims to introduce 198 residential units designed as condominiums, featuring a mix of housing types from two-unit buildings to larger multi-unit structures.
In addition to residential spaces, the proposal includes 20,400 square feet dedicated to neighborhood business uses within mixed-use buildings. This development is strategically located near existing infrastructure, including water and sewer services, and is positioned within a neighborhood commercial high-density residential node as outlined in the city’s growth policy.
The Silver Brook Village project is part of a broader vision for the area, which has already seen the approval of 694 units under previous development plans. The current proposal seeks to increase density beyond earlier approvals made in 2007, reflecting a growing demand for housing in Kalispell. The Planning Commission's decision marks a pivotal moment in addressing the community's housing needs while promoting mixed-use development that supports local businesses.
As the project moves forward, it is expected to contribute significantly to the local economy and provide residents with diverse housing options, reinforcing Kalispell's commitment to sustainable growth and community development.
