Bozeman City Commission Agenda, June 27, 2016 Mayor Taylor opened public comment. 07:07:06 PM Public Comment, Glenn Monahan Mr. Monahan stated that he and his neighbors are concerned about ripple effects of this zoning on his neighborhood. He stated that the Commission should consider the very strong opposition that has come from residents of this neighborhood. 07:10:27 PM Public Comment, Matthew Shutes He is concerned that the rezoning will be opening this for development if approved. 07:11:51 PM Public Comment, Luke Howard R-5 rezoning is appropriate and in the neighborhood's best interest. Redevelopment projects don't pop up overnight, this will allow the City to hone its code in. 07:14:53 PM Public Comment, Nancy Schultz Ms. Schultz asked for the percentage of lot coverage in R-4. She opposes the zoning change and its effect on the neighborhood. The rezoning will be a huge negative in the area. 07:16:54 PM Public Comment, Michael Tucker Zoning gives homeowners predictability. Zoning changes affect homeowners' ability to buy/sell homes. He doesn't see why a vote has already taken place. 07:19:06 PM Public Comment, Mark Albee Mr. Albee opposes the zoning change, and has enjoyed this residential area, and as this area has been a more affordable area, this doesn't fit the City's push for more affordable housing. Additional commercial/retail will not benefit the area. 07:22:53 PM Public Comment, Heather Collins She is very passionate about this neighborhood, and confused about what the zoning actually entails. She does not support the zoning change. This block was not included in previous zoning changes that she was able to find on line.

She asked to leave the neighborhood as is. 07:28:52 PM Public Comment Closed Mayor Taylor closed public comment. 07:28:57 PM Questions of Staff/Discussion Mayor Taylor asked about the process with the protest. City Attorney Sullivan explained the protest forms and process, and that the forms did not explicitly say "protest." The Commission agreed that the intent and numbers did meet the threshold.

He provided background information, the nature of the project (including both the law enforcement building and the court building), and a breakdown of the three types of spaces in the building, with percentage estimations of space and cost allocations. He further discussed land ownership, ownership structure, and the project debt. The County will issue the bonds for the project, but there are some questions about how to operate the mill levy.

He also discussed the sustainability aspects of the project. 08:47:36 PM Questions of Staff CR Krauss asked for clarity on the bond election / mill levy, and the legality of the debt.

Bozeman City Commission Agenda, June 27, 2016 08:56:52 PM Public Comment Mayor Taylor opened public comment. There was no public comment. Public comment was closed. 08:57:15 PM Questions of Staff Continued/ Discussion CR Mehl asked Mr. Winn about the difference between shared and common space. Mayor Taylor asked how the group came to the high amount of shared space in the law enforcement building, and what the percentage is. He also asked if the levy was just the increase in cost of the project, not total. He also asked Mr. Winn what questions the Commission should address in this discussion. DM Andrus asked for clarity on whether the City percentages are also included in the County costs, and what the totals would be. CR Krauss discussed what the City's real percentage will likely be, and asked if there was a "joint location premium.11 He also asked what the recommendation of the City Manager was. DM Andrus agrees with the breakdown, but stated it should be clearer that the percentage to the City will be different. She also strongly asked for simplicity on the ballot language. CR Mehl asked when the project would open if everything went well. Mayor Taylor discussed the proposed L&J Center in the last go-around, and that it was defeated because the public wanted more collaboration. He is now generally okay with the project, but the challenge will be describing the project and costs to the citizens of Bozeman. CR Mehl reminded everyone of the need of the project, and discussed project funding. CR Pomeroy discussed cooperation and the fact that the Police and Sheriff are maxed out. She wants to see this passed. Mr. Winn confirmed that the Commission was okay with the current percentages, and that the City should proceed with just one mill levy question. The draft lnterlocal Agreement will come back on July 11th. No motion is required. Advertised as Action Item so that Commissioners may direct staff as necessary. 5. 09:25:51 PM Provisional Adoption of Ordinance 1952, Amending Chapter 38 of the Bozeman Municipal Code to Create a Cottage Housing Residential Type, Assign the New Use to Residential Districts, Establish Standards for Cottage Housing, and Establish Procedures for Cottage Housing Subdivisions, with Additional Sections To Be Amended If It Is Determined To Be Needed During the Course of Review, Amending Uses Allowed on All Residentially Zoned Property Except the Residential Suburban District, Application 16146 (Saunders) "!.~ 09:26:29 PM Chris Saunders, Staff Presentation Community Development Assistant Director Chris Saunders presented an overview on Cottage Housing. He discussed the changing profile of housing, some existing small home examples in Bozeman, building code requirements, and examples of areas that could fit in the scope of the proposed ordinance. Specific to the ordinance, Mr. Saunders discussed the proposed definitions and proposed locations, and the review Page 11 of 15
Bozeman City Commission Agenda, June 27, 2016 process in comparison to other subdivisions. Mr. Saunders acknowledged a couple public comments that came in, and clarified some ordinance language. Detail is a critical component. He also discussed what the challenges would be, and the criteria for evaluation. General public feedback has been positive, but he proposed potential alternatives for the Commission. 09:54:14 PM Questions of Staff DM Andrus asked if any of these were currently being built. She followed up with a question about utility challenges, and what are the options. She also asked for more clarity on setbacks. She also asked about when building the affordable units was required in the development sequence, and more about the decoupling of Cottage Housing and Affordable Housing. CR Mehl asked why 10% was selected for departures. Mayor Taylor asked for staff's recommended timeline for indicating success. 10:02:07 PM Public Comment Mayor Taylor opened public comment. 10:02:15 PM Robbie Gammick, Public Comment Ms. Gammick was initially very excited about this, but inside the city, there aren't enough big lots to make this work. Doesn't make fiscal sense for affordable housing, the cottage plan and the infill plan should be different. 10:07:16 PM Luke Howard, Public Comment Mr. Howard stated that SWMBIA is excited about Cottage Housing projects. Downtown it could be more difficult, but in general the proposed code is good. 10:09:41 PM Kevin Thane, Public Comment Mr. Thane, Chair of CAHAB, stated the Cottage Housing ordinance is a step in the right direction, but the provisions included make this a development ordinance, not a housing ordinance, which bumps up the cost in a number of ways. Instead of setbacks, have row-houses. The slope-roofed requirement is also too restrictive. Lot size restriction is also too restrictive. Cottage Housing should only be one arrow in the quiver of "innovative housing." 10:15:05 PM John Belshaw, Public Comment He was very impressed with Mr. Saunders' presentation. He believes it's a great concept, but there are a lot of other considerations. 10:17:41 PM Ben Lloyd, Public Comment Architect at CommaQ, he has come to realize that land and infrastructure costs are difficult and expensive to reallocate. The affordable component has been very difficult in an infill situation. From a design standpoint, he supports the ordinance, but from an affordability standpoint, it's difficult. 10:20:16 PM Questions of Staff Continued/ Staff Rebuttal Page 12 of 15
Bozeman City Commission Agenda, June 27, 2016 CR Mehl asked if infill was part of the upcoming UDC rewrite, and if the infill provisions are the same as for affordable housing. Mr. Saunders made a clarification on the open space requirement. He also addressed the land price concerns of citizens, but this is just one option to address the issue. CR Pomeroy asked for Mr. Saunders' opinion on being more flexible on the sloped roof standard. She followed up to ask about the high price of infill addressed earlier. 10:29:04 PM Motion that having reviewed and considered the proposed ordinance, public comment, the recommendations from the Planning Board and Zoning Commission, and all the information presented, I hereby adopt the findings presented in the staff report for application 16146 and move to provisionally adopt Ordinance 1952. Commissioner -Chris Mehl: Motion Commissioner -Jeff Krauss: 2nd 10:29:28 PM Discussion CR Mehl stated that it was far past time this become an option for Bozeman, as it is one more tool the City can have available. He likes many of the options in the ordinance, and the Commission should be realistic about the role Cottage Housing can and should play. Infill will be considered shortly with the UDC regardless. CR Krauss stated he did not support the motion because of the affordable housing inclusion. CR Pomeroy stated that it can support Affordable Housing, and it's the right direction, so she supports the motion. DM Andrus also supports the ordinance, but would also like to address the infill concerns in January with the UDC rewrite. Mayor Taylor also supports the motion, but that the public comment is legitimate and should be discussed shortly. But this is an important step forward in Affordable Housing. The Planning Department should definitely keep the idea of having a timeline for project success in mind. This is one step in the process of figuring it out. 10:39:07 PM Motion and Vote that having reviewed and considered the proposed ordinance, public comment, the recommendations from the Planning Board and Zoning Commission, and all the information presented, I hereby adopt the findings presented in the staff report for application 16146 and move to provisionally adopt Ordinance 1952. Motion passed 4-1.
