TO SECTION 7-12-4183, MONTANA CODE ANNOTATED, AND AS PROVIDED BY
CHAPTERS 2.32 AND 3.04 OF THE BOZEMAN MUNICIPAL CODE.
The City Manager recommended that the Commission adopt this Resolution, which certifies
two delinquent special assessments to the County.
Commissioner Vant Hull questioned why the delinquent assessments for Valley Unit Sub-
division are not included on this list. City Attorney Crumbaker-Smith reminded her that the
restraining order is still in effect; and steps have been started to get the case finalized and I
the order lifted, after which the delinquencies will be certified to the County.
Mayor Mathre asked why this is being done twice a year now. The City Attorney noted
that the City has now begun to assess the special improvement districts on a semi-annual basis,
which results in certifying delinquencies twice a year as well.
It was moved by Commissioner Jordan, seconded by Commissioner Stiff, that the Commission
adopt Commission Resolution No. 2615, certifying delinquent Special Improvement District assess-
ments to the County. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye
being Commissioner Jordan, Commissioner Stiff, Commissioner Vant Hull and Mayor Mathre; those
voti ng No, none.
Re uest for waiver of open container ordinance - Gallatin Valle
ednesday, u y 30, 1986, 7:00 p.m. to dark; request use 0 9:00
p.m.
City Manager Wysocki stated that Commissioner Jordan had requested this item be removed
from the Consent Items.
Commissioner Jordan questioned whether the Commission wishes to allow the parks to be
used by catering companies for gain. He noted the appl ication does not reflect what type of
activity would be conducted during the requested hours.
Assistant City Manager Barrick noted the company in question is a private catering
service. He stated this requested function would be held in conjunction with the Taste of
Bozeman, which is to be held on Main Street during the same hours.
Commissioner Jordan expressed concern about having a catering company sell tickets to I
serve meals in a public park. He also noted there are still spaces available along Main Street
for the Taste of Bozeman; and he does not feel this firm should seek another location in which
to serve its meals.
Mayor Mathre noted that the request is for July 30; therefore, there is time to gather
additional information. She then suggested that the Commission may wish to table action for a
period of one week, to allow an opportunity to get the requested information.
It was moved by Commissioner Stiff, seconded by Commissioner Vant Hull, that the Com-
mission table action on the request by Gallatin Valley Catering for a waiver of the open
container ordinance and the use of a P.A. system in Bogert Park on Wednesday, July 30, 1986,
for a period of one week to allow an opportunity to gather additional information. The motion
carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Stiff, Commis-
sioner Vant Hull, Commissioner Jordan and Mayor Mathre; those voting No, none.

items.
(1) A petition containing 89 signatures from various businesses located along North 7th
Avenue stating opposition to the proposed renaming of that street to Lewis and Clark Boulevard.
(2) The agenda and accompanying information for the City-County Planning Board meeting
to be held on Thursday, July 10, 1986. I

be held at 7:00 a.m. on Wednesday, July 9, at the GranTree Inn.

distribution to the Commission at next week's meeting.
(6) Commissioner Jordan asked if no regular water reports have been submitted because
no problems exist.

. The City Manager stated that the City has begun to draw some water from Hyalite Reservoir
during the past ten days to two weeks, but the intermittent rains have helped to alleviate
potential problems. He noted if it becomes hot and dry, and the water consumption reaches
10-plus million gallons per day for two or three successive days, the City may need to implement
water restrictions because of the water filtration plant capacity. The City Manager indicated
that the water supply and use is being monitored on a regular basis; and restrictions will be
I imposed when necessary,
(7) Commissioner Vant Hull noted a recent FY I item was a petition from residents along
South 16th Avenue, with the indication that more signatures would be submitted in the future;
however, no more signatures have been forthcoming. She then asked if this item should be
placed on the agenda for discussion.
The City Manager reminded the Commission that the City has hired a consulting engineer-
ing firm to complete design work for the project; and any changes in the criteria previously
given that firm will result in an increase in costs. He further noted that he had previously
submitted reasons to the Commission for why the sidewalk should not be located immediately
adjacent to the street.
Mayor Mathre asked the staff to contact the engineering firm to determine how much
design work has been completed to date, with a report to be submitted to the Commission.
(8) Commissioner Vant Hull noted the Recreation Advisory Board minutes indicate that
the Board would like the Commission to write a letter to the American Legion concerning the
monies from their advertising signs, noting that 25 percent was to be submitted to the City but
has not been.
The Mayor noted that the Board must request that the City act on that proposal, and
the Commission should not act on the minutes from their meetings alone.
(9) Commissioner Vant Hull noted she had placed an FYI item in the Commissioners.
boxes this morning concerning the police dispatch system and asked if that item should be
placed on the agenda for discussion.
I The Mayor requested that Commissioner Vant Hull discuss this item with the City
Manager, rather than placing it on an agenda for discussion.
(10) Commissioner Vant Hull then asked if the Commission will discuss the questions and
answers to the various SID questions they have submitted to the staff.
Mayor Mathre noted the questions submitted to the City Manager were for his information;
and there will be no discussion on the item until he has had an opportunity to prepare answers
to the various questions. She also noted the answers will be used selectively during a public
education process.
City Manager Wysocki stated that many of the questions listed by the Commissioners were
answered in a newspaper article which appeared in Sunday's paper. He then indicated the City
staff is currently reviewing the questions submitted and will develop answers as soon as
possible.
(11 ) Mayor Mathre indicated she has received a newsletter from the Aeronautics Board as
well as some information from the Bonneville Power Administration, which she will place on the
desk upstairs for Commissioner review.

City Manager Wysocki presented Commission Resolution No. 2616, authorizing the City to
enter into the Montana Cash Participation Program, as reviewed by the City Attorney.
The City Manager reminded the Commission that the City had considered participation in
this program last year, but determined that the difference in the interest rates was not
adequate to provide a substantial benefit for the City. He noted under the program, the City I
could borrow monies to provide an adequate cash flow in those funds which currently have
negative cash balances, rather than borrowing from other City funds. He noted this Commission
Resolution simply enables the City to borrow monies from the Montana Economic Development
Board, but it is not an application for borrowing. The City Manager indicated that any monies
borrowed under this program would be due on June 30, 1987; however, the City could apply
for a second year on the loan.
Director of Finance Gamradt noted that the estimated interest rate for the Cash
Anticipation Program would be slightly over 5 percent; and the City's monies are currently
invested at 6-plus percent.
City Manager Wysocki recommended that the Commission adopt Commission Resolution No.
2616, authorizing participation in the program.
It was moved by Commissioner Jordan, seconded by Commissioner Stiff, that the
Commission adopt Commission Resolution No. 2616, providing authorization to enter into the
participation agreement for the Montana Cash Anticipation Program. The motion carried by the
following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Jordan, Commissioner Stiff,
Commissioner Vant Hull and Mayor Mathre; those voting No, none.
Discussion re item for next week's agenda
Mr. Lou Armold, representing the Bozeman Lion's Club, indicated that he has submitted
a letter to the City staff requesting a temporary Beer License and waiver of the fee on July 31
and August 1, 2 and 3, 1986. I
City Manager Wysocki stated that request was received on Thursday, too late to be placed
on this week's agenda, but requested that Mr. Armold submit the information so that the
Commission may consider it during next week's discussion of this item.
Mr. Armold stated that the Gallatin County Fair Board has requested that the Bozeman
Lion's Club manage a beer garden during the 1986 Gallatin County Fair, which is to be held at
the same time as the 4-H Fair and the Sweet Pea activities . He then asked that the license fee
for the temporary license be waived, since the monies derived from this program will be used
for community activities.

Addition. He noted the subject alley is more commonly known as the eastern portion of the alley
running from North Grand Avenue to North Third Avenue between West Mendenhall Street and
West Lamme Street, which is the site of the Martel Center. He indicated the remainder of the
alley was vacated by Commission action taken in February 1977. The City Manager then indi-
cated that the individual who has requested this alley vacation does own the property along
both sides of the alley. He noted that the proposed vacation will not remove the ability to
I maintain public service facilities located within that alleyway.
No one was present to speak in support of or in opposition to the requested alley
vacation.
Mayor Mathre closed the public hearing.
It was moved by Commissioner Stiff, seconded by Commissioner Vant Hull, that the

This was the time and place set for the public hearing on the Conditional Use Permit
requested by John L. Miller for Milton E. and Helen C. Jones to allow a shop/ warehouse and
associated offices as a Planned Unit Development on Tract D in the southeast one-quarter of the
southeast one-quarter of Section 31, Township 1 South, Range 6 East, Montana Principal Meridian,
This site is more commonly known as being located along Bridger Drive.
Mayor Mathre opened the public hearing.
I Assistant Planner Dave Skelton presented the Staff Report. He noted the subject site is
located just east of Moat's Ranch Supply and Zig's Building Supply. He indicated the proposal
is to construct two buildings containing ten condominium units. He noted the project would
qualify as a minor Planned Unit Development; however, the M-l- T zoning requires that the
project go through the Conditional Use Permit process. The Assistant Planner then indicated
that access to the site will be through one access from Bridger Drive, the location of which is
to be approved by the State Highway Department. He noted that the proposed parking area
contains 61 parking stalls, which exceeds the 53 required stalls.
Assistant Planner Skelton indicated that three items are to be addressed under the "T"
designation in this area. The first item concerns landscaping and buffering from adjacent
properties with different zoning designations. He noted the property to the north of this site
is currently zoned AS; and the applicant will be required to provide buffering along that
property line. The second item pertains to signage for the project. He indicated that the
applicant will install one sign at the front of the property listing the name of the project, the
address and a directory of businesses. Also, each business will have one surface-mounted sign;
and all signs must be approved by the Planning Director prior to installation. The third item
addresses access to the central sewage system. He noted that the subject property is not
located within the city limits and, therefore, is not required to tie into the City's sewage
system; but any sub-surface drainage system must be approved by the County Sanitarian. He
indicated that if the developer wishes to obtain City service, a private sewer trunk line runs
I along Bridger Drive and there is adequate capacity in the water main in that area to service
the project.
The Assistant Planner stated that the Zoning Commission concurred in the Planning Staff's
recommendation, subject to several conditions which they revised slightly.
Commissioner Vant Hull asked if the City could require access to the site through
interior roads among the various commercial developments in the area rather than from Bridger
Drive.
Assistant Planner Skelton indicated that interior access roads can be required during the
subdivision process, but such conditions are not appropriate under this procedure.
07-07-86
282
Commissioner Stiff noted one person indicated opposition to development of the subject
site, questioning if this process might provide for a more aesthetically appropriate project.
The Assistant Planner noted that warehouses are a permitted use in the M-l district; but
the "TH designation provides for public review and an opportunity to attach conditions to the
project rather than the customary in-house review.
Commissioner Jordan asked if it is difficult to get persons to submit copies of the
covenants for the proposed project. I
Assistant Planner Skelton indicated that a final draft of the covenants, as filed at the
County Clerk and Recorder's Office, must be submitted to the Planning Staff for review and
approval prior to signing of the final plat.
No one was present to speak in support of or in opposition to the requested Conditional
Use Permit.
Mayor Mathre closed the public hearing.
It was moved by Commissioner Jordan, seconded by Commissioner Stiff, that the Commission
waive the customary one-week waiting period. The motion carried by the following Aye and No
vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Jordan, Commissioner Stiff, Commissioner Vant Hull
and Mayor Mathre; those voting No, none.
It was moved by Commissioner Stiff, seconded by Commissioner Vant Hull, that the Com-
mission approve the Conditional Use Permit requested by John L. Miller for Milton E. and Helen
C. Jones to allow a shop/warehouse and associated offices as a Planned Unit Development on

Mayor Mathre opened the public hearing.
Senior Planner Marcia Elkins presented the Staff Report. She noted this requested
Conditional Use Permit would allow the construction of an owner/caretaker's residence on a
7.575-acre lot located within an M-l, Commercial--Light Industrial, District. She stated the
applicant had previously submitted basically the same request and received conditional approval;
however, the six-month timeframe for final approval expired before final plans were submitted.
She indicated the applicant has addressed some of the concerns previously expressed, along with
some other minor changes in the appearance and layout of the structure. The Senior Planner
stated the Zoning Commission reviewed this application and concurred in the Planning Staff's
recommendation for approval, subject to seven conditions.
Mr. Buz Cowdrey, applicant, indicated that he is willing to accept the conditions as
recommended by the Zoning Commission.
I Commissioner Vant Hull asked Mr. Cowdrey about constructing a residence in an M-l zone,
and whether he may seek a residential zoning at some time in the future,
Mr. Cowdrey stated he currently owns the subject property and stores his construction
equipment there. He noted that he has recently incurred some theft; and he feels that con-
struction of a residence there will help -alleviate those problems. He then indicated his
intention is to construct a large home and office space, relocating his place of residence to the
subject site.
Commissioner Vant Hull then asked about sewer service for the residence.
Buz Cowdrey indicated that the residence will be tied into the City sewer system, which
has been installed through a Special Improvement District.

Commission and the City Commission previously rejected a Zone Code Amendment to allow garbage
transfer stations as a conditional use in the M-l (Commercial--Light Manufacturing) District and
directed the Planning Staff to prepare a Zone Code Amendment to allow garbage transfer stations
as a conditional use in the M-2 (Manufacturing and Industrial) District. She indicated this
request is in response to those directions; and the proposed Zone Code Amendment contains a
revised definition for garbage transfer stations which addresses some of the concerns expressed I
about the previous definition. The Senior Planner stated that the Zoning Commission reviewed
the proposed Zone Code Amendment and recommended approval.
Commissioner Vant Hull asked if there is adequate vacant M-2 zoned ground in the City
to accommodate construction of a garbage transfer station, or whether the City will receive
requests for rezoning of current M-l property.
Senior Planner Elkins indicated that there is available M-2 zoned ground within the city
limits. She then stated the Planning Staff feels that M-2 zoning is more appropriate than M-l,

instances there is residential development within M-l zones. She then indicated that surrounding

mitted.
No one was present to speak in opposition to the proposed Zone Code Amendment.
