per garage unit, provided that setback and/or yard as well as landscap-
ing requirements and established curb cut policies are not violated. All
curb cuts for commercial use shall be in accordance with the Montana
Highway Commission Approach Standards, as adopted by the Bozeman City
Commission. Indication of curb cut desires and/or needs shall be sub-
mitted to the City Engineer in duplicate on proper curb cut application
forms obtained from that office. The City Engineer shall check each
application for full compliance with the City codes and regulations before
issuing a permit. Issuance of such permit shall not relieve the
permittee of the responsibility of complying with all codes, regulations
and specifications. Requests for special consideration in excess of or
at variance with this subsection shall be subject to consideration for
approval by the Bozeman City Commission.
I SECTION 2

amended to read as follows:
18.76.070 Curb Cuts
l. A minimum distance of thirty (30) feet shall be maintained between
more than two separate driveways/curb cuts in any direction along
all public street frontages.
However, where Townhouse lots front on private streets the above
driveway /curb cut requirements may be modified if the project site
design provides for reasonable public safety, convenient parking,
ingress-egress and related vehicular maneuvering and a minimum of
vehicular and/or pedestrian congestion. Not more than one curb cut
shall be permitted per two townhouses. A minimum corner clearance
shall be fifteen (15) feet from property lines at uncontrolled inter-
sections and thirty (30) feet from property lines at controlled (either
signed or signalized) intersections.
2. In no case shall any curb cut be permitted which, in the opinion of
the City Engineer, may cause an unsafe or hazardous driving condition.
SECTION 3
I That Section 18.76.100 of the Bozeman Municipal Code be and the same is hereby
amended to read as follows:
18.76.100 Open Space
l. Maintenance of Common Area--Provisions satisfactory to the City
Commission shall be made to assure that nonpublic areas and facilities
for the common use of occupants of a townhouse development, but not
in individual ownership of such occupants, shall be maintained in a
satisfactory manner without expense to the general taxpayers of the
City of Bozeman. To this end , the incorporation of an automatic
membership home association created under recorded land agreements

will be required for the purpose of continuously holding title to such
nonpublic areas and facilities, levying assessments against each town-
house lot, whether improved or not, for the purpose of paying the
taxes and maintaining such non public areas and facilities may include
but not be limited to, recreational areas, off-street parking bays,
private streets, sidewalks, street lights, and common open and land-
scaped areas. Such assessments shall be a lien superior to all other
liens save and except tax liens and mortgage liens, provided said I
mortgage liens are first liens against the property encumbered thereby,
subject only to tax liens, and secure indebtedness which are amortized
in monthly or quarter-annual payments over a period of not less than
ten years. Other methods may be acceptable if the same positively
provides for the proper and continuous payment of taxes and maint-
enance without expense to the general taxpayers. The instrument
incorporating such provisions shall be approved by the City Com-
mission, and shall be recorded in the public records of Gallatin
County if satisfactory to the City Commission.
In the event that this or a similar enti ty fails to maintain the common
area in accordance with the landscaping plan approved by the City
Commission, or should the entity fail to maintain the common area
in a reasonable condition and state of repair, the determination of
such failure to be made by the Building Inspector or Planning
Director, the City Commission, may at its option through its own
agents or by independent contractor, enter the common area for
purposes of maintenance thereof, together with an additional charge
of twenty-five percent (25%) of said costs for management fees, such
costs to constitute a lien upon each and every lot in the project.
2. Common 01en Space--A minimum of one-ninth (l/9) of the site to be
developed or townhouses shall be provided as common open space
except when one townhouse group is proposed or when the site has
previously satisfied the public parks or playgrouds dedication
requirements of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act. Fifty
percent (50%) of said space shall be unencumbered with any
structure (s), and any other impervious areas. Said areas shall be
landscaped and well maintained with grass, trees and shrubbery. The
remaining fifty percent (50%) may be used only as swimming pools,
tennis courts, shuffle boards, pedestrian walks, entrance features, I
recreation buildings, maintenance buildings for common areas, and
other recreational uses. Open space requirements as set forth in
Section 18.75.040. Open space shall be modified for townhouse
developments as noted in this Chapter.
3. Common 0 en S ace Re uired--In those instances
were t e propose lot has a gross area of less than the per unit
lot area requirement of the specific zoning district, compensating
common open space must be established and provided within the
project site.
Compensating open space also allows the individual housing units
and lots to be grouped in a manner which creates economics in the
installation of utilities and streets required to serve these individual
private properties and provides an opportunity for the subdivider to
design and develop a more attractive residential neighborhood and
fully utilize any natural or topographic features which may be present
on the tract being subdivided.
4. Limitations, Courtyards--Compensating open spaces are to be con-
sidered to be only those areas not specifically designated or used as
lots, building sites for dwelling units, building sites for utility or
storage purposes, vehicular parking lots, carports, garages or drive-
ways thereto or streets, either public or private.
Courtyards which are designed to provide primary access from groups
or cluster of lots or building sites adjacent to public streets must have
an average width between the fronts of such Jots or buildings of fifteen
(l5) feet with a minimum of such distance being not less than ten (l0)
feet. The length of such courtyards should not be more than 100 feet,
extending away from the public street upon which such courtyards must
open. I

That Section 18.76.160 of the Bozeman Municipal Code be, and the same is hereby
amended to read as follows:
18.76.160 Conversion
Conversion of existing structures to a townhouse project will be permitted provided
all townhouse development standards as outlined in this section can be satisfied.
Where it cannot be demonstrated by the applicant that the proposed conversion
will comply with appropriate subdivision and zoning regulations, the conversion
will be disallowed.
SECTION 6
That Section 18.84.040 of the Bozeman Municipal Code be, and the same is hereby
amended to read as follows:
18.84.040 Design
l. Location--Off-street parking area(s) as required by this ordinance shall he
located as specified herein.
a. Single-family dwellings--On the same lot with the dwelling they
are required to serve.
b. Multi-family dwellings--On the same lot with the dwelling
I they are required to serve.
c. Hospitals, sanitariums, townhouses, apartments, rooming
and boarding houses, fraternity and sorority houses--
within 100 feet of the use to be served and located in
the same district as the principal use.
d. Commercial and industrial uses--Within 400 feet of the
use they are required to serve and located in the same
district as the principal use.
Where a distance is specified, such distance shall be measured by a straight
line from the nearest point of the building such parking area is required
to serve.
Off-street parking areas must be accessible by a public street or alley and
shall be owned or leased by the owner or leasee of the building or use being
served by such parking. Such parking bt shall be maintained as a parking
lot so long as the building and/or use served is in operation or until another
suitable parking area is established for such building or use.
Required parking spaces shall be located so as to preclude backing maneuvers
onto any public right-of-way from any use, with the exception of single and
multi-family dwellings, as defined in this ordinance. Required parking spaces
shall not be located in any required front or side yard, except for detached
single-family dwellings, townhouses and mobile homes as specified in Section
18.84.050.
2. Screening
a. Any off-street parking lot built to serve any commercial
I or industrial use with more than five (5) vehicles which
adjoins or faces properties situtated in any residential
district shall be screened by a wall or solid fence not
less than six (6) feet nor more than eight (8) feet in
height.
b. If the required area used for parking is placed between
the required landscaped yard abutting a public or private
street and the structure(s), then a view-obscuring screening
of the parkin~ area shall be established in the rear portion
of the landscaped yard area. (See Figures 1 and 2.) The
required screening shall contain at least one or more of the
folhwing design elements: low-profile vegetative ground cover
not to exceed two (2) feet in height at maturity and/or earth
OFDINANCE NO. IOn

berms. (See Figure 2.) No single design element shall com-
prise more than fifty percent (50%) of the required screening.
The required screening shall be at least two (2) feet but not
more than three (3) feet in height.
The screening design shall include at least one (1) tree per
fifteen (15) lineal feet of public or private street frontage,
planted on fifteen foot centers. I
So as to minimize potential vandalism, the required view-
obscuring screen shall not have a continuous frontage,
but shall contain intermittent breaks of at least six (6)
feet, but not more than ten (10) feet in length. (See
Figure 1.) The individual segments of the screening shall
not be less than fifty (50) feet nor more than eighty (80)
feet in length. (See Figure 1.) However, where a specific
lot frontage does not permit full compliance with this require-
ment, these dimensions may be reduced or modified so that
the intent of this requirement can be satisfied.
c. (1) Notwithstanding other provisions of this ordinance in
any district, fences, walls, hedges or other plantings
may be permitted in any required yard, provided that
nothing shall be erected, placed, planted, or allowed
to grow in such a manner so as to materially impede
vision beyond a height of two and one-half (2.5) feet
above centerline grades of the intersecting streets in
the area bounded by street lines of such corner lots
and a line joining points along said street lines forty
(40) feet from property lines at their intersection,
thus forming a sight triangle at the intersection.
(See Figure 3.)
(2) Notwithstanding other provisions of this ordinance in
any district, fences, walls, hedges or other plantings
may be permitted in any required yard, provided that
nothing shall be erected, placed, planted, or allowed
to grow in such a manner as to materially impede I
vision beyond a height of two and one-half (2.5) feet
above centerline grades of streets in the area of curb
cuts bounded by street lines of driveway accesses and
a line joining points along said street lines fifteen (15)
feet from curb cuts intersection with the street, thus
forming a sight triangle at the intersection of the
street and the driveway. (See Figure 4.)
d. Service, storage and refuse areas or structures shall be
screened from view of any residential district or public
street with a continuous planting, hedge, solid fence or
masonry wall. Average height of the screening material
shall be one (1) foot more than the height of the enclosed
structure, but shall not be required to exceed eight (8)
feet in height.
3. Landscaping--For the purpose of this section, landscaping shall mean any
combination of living plants such as trees, shrubs, vines, ground covers,
flowers or lawns; and may include natural features such as decorative rock,
stone and bark, and structural features, including but not limited to fountains,
reflecting pools, art works, screen walls, fences and benches.
Parking areas shall be subject to the following landscape criteria:
a. A minimum of 75 percent of the required landscaped parking
areas shall have a live vegetative ground cover of grass or
other plan materials and a water/irrigation system to sustain
said plantings in a continuous, healthy growth. The re-
maining 25 percent maximum may be covered with rock,
stone, bark, etc., and other impermeable features including
sidewalks and driveways.
b. Any use having more than fifteen (15) parking spaces I
shall have, in addition to required yard areas, six percent
(6%) of the gross interior parking area landscaped. Trees
shall be the major design elements in all parking Jots and
shall include, specifically, one tree per three (3) parking
spaces. Three sizes shall be a minimum of one and one-
half (1.5) inch caliber for deciduous trees and a minimum
of four (4) feet in height for coniferous trees.

provided between any building and adjacent parking lot. Where
sidewalk curbs serve as wheel stops, an additional two feet of side-
walk width is required.
d. Lighting--Lighting used to illuminate a parking area shall be
arranged in such a manner that it will not be a hazard to passing
motorists or constitute a nuisance of any kind. Where said park-

curb. This requirement may be modified provided other design fea-
tures will be equally effective in prohibiting a vehicle from ob-
structing a sidewalk or making contact with a wall, fence or landscap-
ed area, and which will promote safe pedestrian access. All landscap-
ed areas shall be protected from vehicular traffic with the installation,
adjacent to and around the perimeter of such landscaped areas, of
wheel stops as previously described above. (See Figures 7 and 8.)
f. Traffic Control Devices--Parking spaces shall be designated by pave-
ment markings. All traffic control devices such as pavement markings,
signs, rails, curbs, and other similar development proposals shall be

maintained, all surfacing and lighting shall be kept in good repair,
landscaping shall be kept free of weeds and properly watered, and
in a continuous healthy growth, and walls and screening kept in good
repair, free of broken or missing parts or graffiti.
h. Accesses--The accesses to parking lots will be governed by the curb
cut policy of the City Engineering Department.
i. Improvement Schedule--All parking area improvements to include sur-
facing, drainage, walkways, lighting, landscaping, screening, traffic
control, etc., shall be installed before occupancy of the building or
I use to be served by such parking. Where parking area improvements
will not be completed before occupancy of the building, a performance
bond or an irrevocable letter of credit will be accepted for the comple-
tion of the required improvements. The performance bond or letter
of credit shall be equal to 1 112 times the cost of the parking area
improvements. A cost estimate for improvements not installed at the
time of occupancy shall be presented to the Building Official for ap-
proval. Performance bonds or letters of credi t will not be released
until all rennjr~(l it"'provenents shown on the approved plan are in-
stalled and accepted. Foreclosure proceedings shall be brought
