Tronstad subdivisions move forward

In a 4-1 vote, the Kalispell Planning Commission on Oct. 8 authorized twin developments along Tronstad Road to be put before City Council. 

During around two and a half hours of public comment, neighbors voiced disproval of the proposed project in North Kalispell. Many held concerns that Tronstad Road does not have the necessary infrastructure to accommodate the influx of traffic that would come with the proposed development.   

“There is no one in this room who wants to see more crosses on the side of the road,” Michele Taylor, a resident on Birch Grove Road said calling the proposal reckless.
