Award bid - street sweeper for Street Division This was the time and place set to award the bid on the street sweeper for the Street Division. City Manager Wysocki stated the bid submitted by Pioneer Equipment and Supply, Butte, Montana, in the amount of $56,920.00 is well below the appropriated amount of $65,000.00. He then noted Director of Public Service Holmes has submitted a memo indicating the strobe light, back-up alarm and steel-belted tires were omitted from the original bid because the items could be purchased from local firms at a lower cost than would be received through the bidding 1 process.

Decision - Conditional Use Permit - William A. Davis, V. - allow a Bed and Breakfast Inn on Lots 11,12,13,14,15 and 16, Block 108, Northern Pacific Addition (719 North Wallace Avenue) This was the time and place set for the decision on the Conditional Use Permit requested by William A. Davis, V., to allow a Bed and Breakfast Inn on Lots 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16, Block 108, Northern Pacific Addition. This site is more commonly known as the Old Lehrkind Mansion located at 719 North Wallace Avenue. City Manager Wysocki stated the Commission conducted the public hearing on this request at last week's meeting. He then stated the Zoning Commission has recommended approval, subject to seven conditions, and concurred in that recommendation. He also suggested that the Commission specifically stipulate that the off-street parking must be paved. 1 Commissioner Vant Hull suggested that Mr. Davis consider seeking a variance to the off-street parking requirements from the Board of Adjustment. She expressed concern about the possibility of removing a portion of the lawn area to provide the required off-street parking spaces. The Commissioner also indicated she feels the Commission should establish a policy for recognition of historic structures, realizing variances may be needed to maintain the structures in an historic manner. Commissioner Jordan expressed concern about the possibility of not requiring the specified number of off-street parking spaces. He noted individual cases do not seem to create an impact on the number of cars parking on the street, but the cumulative effect can be dramatic. The 03-26-84 U96 Commissioner stated he feels the parking requirements should be made stricter; and waivers should be very carefully considered before approval is granted. He also stated many of the existing historic structures were built as single-family residences, but most of those structures are not currently being maintained as single-family dwellings. It was moved by Commissioner Vant Hull, seconded by Commissioner Anderson, that the Conditional Use Permit requested by William A. Davis, V., to allow a Bed and Breakfast Inn on Lots 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16, Block 108, Northern Pacific Addition, be approved subject to I the conditions recommended by the Zoning Commission as follows: 1. That seven (7) off-street parking stalls be provided that meet the minimum requirements of Chapter 18.62 of the Bozeman Zoning Ordinance. 2. That the Building Department inspect the structure to ensure its safety. 3. That the developer enter into an Improvements Agreement with the City of Bozema n . If occupancy is to occur prior to the installation of all scheduled improvements, the developer shall provide a method of security equal to one- and one-half (1 i) times the estimated cost of the remaining improvements. Said agreement shall include detailed plans and specifications of all improvements, cost estimates and final site plans. 4. That three (3) copies of the final site plan containing all the conditions, corrections and modifications approved by the City Commission be submitted for review and approved by the Planning Director within six (6) months of the date of City Commission approval and prior to issuance of a building permit for the project. One (1) signed copy shall be retained by the Building Department; one (1) signed copy shall be retained by the Planning Director; and one (1) signed copy shall be retained by the applicant. 5. All on-site improvements (i.e., paving, landscaping, etc.) shall be completed within eighteen (18) months of the approval of the conditional use permit as shown on the approved final site plan. 6. That conditional use permit shall be valid for a period of only eighteen (18) months followi ng approval of the use. Prior to the permanent renewal of the permit at the end of that period, the applicant must satisfy all the conditions in the granting of the permit. An on-site I inspection will be made, and a report will be made to the City Commission for thei r action. If all required conditions have been satisfied, the permit will be permanently renewed. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Vant Hull, Commissioner Anderson, Commissioner Mathre and Mayor Weaver; those voting No being Commissioner Jordan. Air Quality Update - Jim Heimbach City Manager Wysocki stated Commissioner Jordan had requested this item be placed on the agenda. Mr. Jim Heimbach gave a brief history of air quality monitoring in Bozeman. He a I so presented to the Commission copies of a bar chart indicating the results obtained from the air quality monitoring devices. He noted the high readings, low readings and mean readings have been noted on the chart from January 1978 through January 1984. Mr. Heimbach stated there does not appear to be any major effluent from chimneys during the winter. He noted that easy wood supplies are more difficult to find and cautioned the Commission that if people begin burning coal, it could cause a negative impact on the air quality. Mr. Heimbach then stated the wind monitoring equipment has been installed on Traphagen Hall; and data will be gathered to be considered in conjunction with the total suspended par- ticulate data. Mayor Weaver suggested that Mr. Heimbach contact Dr. King, City-County Health Department, I about the possibility of obtaining additional monitoring equipment. Commissioner Anderson stated Helena has been operating under a three-year plan to protect the air quality. She asked if such a plan could be developed for Bozeman and the Gallatin Valley. Mr. Heimbach stated he feels development of a plan should be considered. Commissioner Vant Hull expressed concern about the possibility of coal burning in the valley and asked if there is any way to discourage such activity. She also suggested that Mr. 03-26-84 U91 Heimbach make a presentation to the County Commission also, since they must adopt the policy. Mr. Heimbach stated a policy can be adopted which specifies during which weather patterns wood burning and coal burning stoves are not to be used. The Commissioners thanked Mr. Heimbach for his presentation. Preliminary Plat Review - Sapphire Subdivision - Ei NEt SW! of Section 11, T2S, R5E, MPM 1 (West Babcock, just north of Main Mall) This was the time and place set for review of the Preliminary Plat for Sapphire Sub- division, which is located in the Ei NEt SWi of Section 11, Township 2 South, Range 5 East, Montana Principal Meridian. This site is more commonly located on West Babcock, just north of the Main Mall. Interim Planning Director Mike Money presented the Staff Report. He stated the proposed subdivision is 21.47 acres in size. He noted the current zoning on the parcel is R-3 and R-4 and 275 dwelling units could be developed on the site. The Interim Planning Director then reviewed the items discussed at the City-County Planning Board meeting, including the westward extension of Yogo Drive, utility easements, extension of the trunk sewer line, provision of one-half of the parkland requirements with the remainder of the requirement to be covered by a cash-in-lieu payment, the traffic impact of West Babcock Street; and the intersection of West Babcock Street and West Main Street. He then stated the first fifteen conditions listed in the Resolution adopted by the City-County Planning Board refer specifically to the application for Preliminary Plat. The subsequent three conditions listed in the Resolution are recommendations to the Commission for consideration only. Commissioner Jordan asked if the street within Sapphire Subdivision will be private. The Interim Planning Director stated that Yogo Drive will be a public street. Commissioner Anderson asked about imposition of requirements to develop this area in an aesthetically pleasing manner. She stated concern about the "hodge podge" development which has been done over the past few years. I Interim Planning Director Money stated the Zoning Code requirements address lot layout and design; however, it is difficult to impose additional requirements without specific guidelines bei ng developed. He then noted R-3 lots are usually viewed as being developed as multi-family dwellings. He stated economics have affected the development of R-3 lots in the past few years. He then suggested if the Commission wishes these items addressed, they should be listed in the proposed work items for the coming year; and monies should be budgeted for the project. Commissioner Vant Hull expressed concern about the traffic impact additional development will create on West Babcock Street, especially when it is the only access. She asked if the traffic situation should be review'ed and possibly installation of a traffic signal at the inter- section of West Main Street and West Babcock Street required at some specified point in the development of Sapphire Subdivision. The Interim Planning Director stated the traffic impact has been reviewed with the annexation of various areas along West Babcock Street during the past few years. He indicated the staff could review the portion of those annexation reports referring to the traffic impacts. Commissioner Jordan also indicated concern about the impact additional traffic will create on West Babcock Street and the intersection of West Main Street and West Babcock Street. Commissioner Vant Hull stated a Community Impact Statement may be needed, particularly concerning the traffic impact on the intersection of West Main Street and West Babcock Street. I nterim Planning Director Money stated traffic impact is considered during the Zone Map Change and Master Plan Amendment requests, which have been previously approved. 1 Commissioner Mathre noted the lots listed on the map appear small for development as a PUD. She asked if there are any minimum lot size requirements for a PUD. The Interim Planning Director stated there are no lot size requirements for a PUD. Commissioner Vant Hull suggested the Commission should consider requiring off-site improvements, similar to the conditions placed on the Preliminary Plat for Story Hills. 03-26-84 - ---- ----.- U98 Break - 5:00 to 5:10 p.m. Mayor Weaver declared a break at 5:00 p.m., to reconvene at 5:10 p.m., in accordance with Commission policy established at their regular meeting of March 14, 1983. Plat Review (continued) - Sapphire Subdivision - Ei NE! SW! of Section 11, T2S, est abcock, just north of Main Mall Mr. Gene Cook, applicant, indicated he would answer questions from the Commissioners. 1 Commissioner Jordan asked if it would be possible to provide a walkway between the development and Main Mall. He also asked if any covenants could be placed on development of the site so similar buildings are constructed and similar materials used. Mr. Cook stated he intends to install a walkway along the easement in the southwest corner of the development to provide easy access to the Main Mall. He then stated he has considered various methods to ensure all structures in the development are compatible. He indicated he has considered general covenants for the development. Mr. Cook then noted Commissioner Mathre asked about development of a PUD on one lot. He stated the lots are too small to build a PUD, but a developer may buy three or four lots and construct a PUD. Commissioner Jordan asked if this development was to be constructed for senior citizens only. Mr. Cook stated the initial plan was to develop the area as a senior citizens PUD, how- ever, that plan did not succeed. He indicated he may develop a portion of the subdivision as a senior citizens PUD, but not the entire subdivision as originally planned. Mr. Gary Butcher, 3017 West Babcock Street, submitted to the Commission a petition signed by 26 residents serviced by West Babcock Street stating concern about the intersection of West Main Street and West Babcock Street and requesting development of Sapphire Subdivision not be approved until a traffic signal has been installed. Mr. Butcher stated the intersection of West Main Street and West Babcock Street is hazardous, particularly in the winter when it is icy. City Manager Wysocki recommended the Commission approve the Preliminary Plat, subject I to the fifteen conditions recommended by the Planning Board, with minor revision to Condition No. 5 and, in separate actions, accept each of the three additional recommendations from the City-County Planning Board. It was moved by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner Jordan, that the Commission approve the Preliminary Plat for Sapphire Subdivision, located in the Et NE! SW! of Section 11, Township 2 South, Range 5 East, MPM, subject to the conditions recommended by the City-County Planning Board as follows: 1.

That the parkway be shown as five and one-half (st) feet on the final plat. 4. That a storm drainage plan be submitted, and reviewed and approved by the City Engineering Officer. 5. That the sewer easement that is now in private ownership be turned over to the City of Bozeman, or that the easement be abandoned and relocated west of Yogo Drive, at the discretion of the Director of Public Service. 6. That the water main located on East Yogo Drive be located 11 feet west of the sewer main. 7. That the developer and the City Engineering Officer agree on an adequate I solution concerning the access and maintenance of the sewer easement on the western property boundary. 8.

'5. That if the plat is to be filed prior to all improvements being installed. and approved by the City of Bozeman, that the developer enter into an Improve- ,ments Agreement with the City of Bozeman, and that it be secured by an acceptable method of security equal to the amount of the cost of installation on the remaining scheduled improvements. Also, plans and specifications for construction must be approved per Section 2.5 and 10.2-1 prior to submittal of final plats. The Improvements Agreement will contain a con- struction time schedule and a method of payment to the City of Bozeman for the inspection of the improvements' installation. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Anderson, Commissioner Jordan, Commissioner Mathre and Mayor Weaver; those voting No being Commissioner Vant Hull. City Manager Wysocki asked if the area designated for parkland on the maps has been revised. Mr. Arthur Van1t Hul, engineer for the applicant, presented copies of the map showing the area to designated for parkland and showing the realignment of the original lots to provide for that parkland. The City Manager submitted those copies to the Commission, and recommended that the Commission accept that parkland as shown on the map and accept Condition No. 1 as recommended by the Planni ng Board. It was moved by Commissioner Jordan, seconded by Commissioner Mathre, that the 1 Commission accept the parkland as shown on the revised map, and that the Commission accept Recommendation No.1, stating "That the cash-in-lieu needed to satisfy the parkland require- ment of this subdivision be earmarked and used, if possible, for the development of the dedicated parkland within this subdivision," and refer it to staff for review.

City Manager Wysocki suggested the staff prepare a comprehensive staff memo addressing the concerns about the intersection of West Main Street and West Babcock Street, including traffic counts if possible. He noted if that memo does not address the concerns expressed by the Commission, a Community Impact Statement and an Environmental Impact Statement addressing those concerns could be requested. The City Manager then stated he does not feel development of this particular subdivision should be placed on hold until this issue has been resolved because of a potentially exaggerated problem. He stated if the information gathered indicates a traffic signal is needed at the intersection of West Main Street and West Babcock Street, the City can then approach the State of Montana Department of Highways and request that installa- tion of a traffic signal be accelerated. It was moved by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner Vant Hull, that the 1 Commission accept Recommendation No.2, stating "That the requirements for Community Impact and Environmental Impact Statements be waived.

The City Manager stated he has spoken with the Director of Public Service, and he supports the recommendation submitted by the Planning Board. It was moved by Commissioner Mathre, seconded by Commissioner Vant Hull, that the Commission accept Recommendation No.3, stating "That the required 150-foot curve radius be waived due to poor sight distance and impact it will have on the intersection for supplying 1 access to the property to the west.
