Council postpones hearing and pulls annexation request for 632 Lund Lane until survey clarifies frontage easement potential
Summary
Council opened the public hearing on a petition to annex approximately 2 acres at 632 Lund Lane but voted to pull the item from the agenda and postpone action until a survey clarifies whether the applicant can dedicate 30 feet of frontage for an east–west connector.
The Whitefish City Council opened a public hearing on Resolution 25-31, a petition to annex approximately 2 acres at 632 Lund Lane, but voted to pull the item from the agenda and postpone action pending a property survey. Planning staff reported the property has county R3 zoning roughly comparable to the city's WR1 and that a 30-foot frontage dedication had been requested in the staff intent-to-annex resolution to create a 60-foot right-of-way for an Eighteenth Street connector aligning to Caro Avenue. The applicants told staff they expect a survey will show only 15–20 feet available between the road and the house; staff recommended postponement until the survey clarifies how much land can be dedicated for the connection. Council voted to pull the item; the hearing will be re-noticed when the survey is complete and staff returns with a recommendation on whether an easement or other dedication is feasible.
