Decision - Zone Map Change - Rick Mayfield (Story Hill Subdivision) - R-2 to R-4, R-1 to R-4, RS-2, to R-2, B-1 to R-4, and R-1 to R-2. The Commission closed the public hearing on Rick Mayfield's request for a Zone Map Change on Wednesday, July 9, 1980. The applicant seeks a change to the City's Official Zoning t1ap which would reclassify the I zoning on approximately 282.8 acres from RS-2 and R-1 to R-2; 8-1 to R-4; and R-2 and R-1 to R-4. The Planning Director pointed out several revisions to the Building area within each dis- trict. He indicated that these adjustments were necessary after reviewing the Soil Conservation Service comments on the soil condition within Story Hills. He indicated that there was a reduction of about 28 acres of building area within the various tracts. Commissioner Stiff asked how traffic problems would be addressed during the development of this area. Paul Bolton indicated that a condition has been attached to this transitional district that conditions the pace of development relative to actual building construction and the subsequent impacts on adjacent streets. Rick Mayfield reviewed several of the concerns he wished to make known with the Commission and basically concerned with the transitional district for this zoning. The Commission concurred in the recommendation of the City t1anager, and it was moved by Commissioner Stiff, seconded by Commissioner Swanson, that the Commission approve the Zone Map Change with the following revisions & conditions: l. That soils information describing this area of Story Hills be evaluated by the Soil Conservation Service to assure reasonably safe conditions for the type of residential densities and construction being proposed. Should the SCS evaluation determine potentially unsafe areas for intensive residen- tial development, then the proposed zoning must be returned to the Zoning Commission for reevaluation and approval prior to consideration by the City Commission. I 2. Any revised zoning predicated on the Master Plan amendment shall not be effective until the final Master Plan amendment resolution and revised 1 and use plan is approved by both the City and County Commi ss ions. 3. The areas included within this zone map change shall be designated the Story Hills "T" (Transitional) District which shall have the following development standards: A. Big Gulch Drive shall be paved to meet City street standards in sequence with the actual development. B. Within the designated residential P.U.D. tracts, all development shall be done in accordance with and satisfy City of Bozeman P.U.D. standards. . 72 . . Each P.U.D. tract shall be planned, approved and developed as a total P.U.D. before any initial development within such tracts is permitted or building permits issued. c. Non-designated P.U.D. tracts shall be exempt from conditional use review requirements unless standard conditional use requests require compliance with conditional use procedures. D. A one (1) acre neighborhood commercial area shall be designated I in the general southeast corner in Tract 22. Initial develop- ment within this area shall proceed only after conditional use procedures have been satisfied. The conditional use review is intended to ensure that all development will foster a high qual- ity of site and building design and maximum neighborhood compati- bility. The area is highly visible as the major entryway to Story Hills and, therefore, all future development shall be guided by environmental and architectural criteria that promote aesthetic- ally pleasing projects. Conditional use review will consider appropriate signage, landscaping, parking, controlled ingress- egress, drainage and erosion control, enclosure of storage and refuse, screening of roof-based equipment and minimization of disturbance to sloped areas. E. Residential, park land/open space and the commercial areas shall be located as described in exhibits and reports submitted by the applicant as part of this zone map change and as modified and recommended by the Staff, Planning Board and Zoning Commission in reports associated with this review of Story Hills. F. Oil, gas, electric and other utility lines and their associated easements shall not predominate residential building areas. They shall be generally used as boundaries to define non-buildable and/ or non-disturbed areas. All efforts to provide maximum public safety relative to the development of residential and active recreation areas in proximity to existing and proposed utility lines and their associated easements will be used in determin- ing actual developable and use areas described above. G. All required park land shall be satisfied through normal pUblic dedication procedures. An approximate six (6) acre park site shall I be dedicated to the public and shall be located within Tracts 7, 8 and 9. Remaining estimated park land dedication shall be satisfied by 2 or 3 public and/or private park areas, each consisting of a minimum of 2 or 3 acres in size, generally located within Tracts 15, 16, 17 and 18. These park areas shall be provided to complement cluster housing - planned unit development. 4. All areas suggested for this comprehensive zone map change, if approved, shall be annexed to the City prior to the issuance of any City building permits. 5. All proposed developments shall be phased and conditioned on the suitability of off-site accesses to safely and efficiently handle traffic impacts gener- ated by development within Story Hills and the ability of developers to minimize these impacts. 6. Tract 20 be expanded for R-3 development subsequent to the filing by the applicant of topographic information defining the buildable lot area. 7. The developable acreage for which the revised zoning classifications will apply shall be as follows: Tract 1 - 6.4 acres Tract 14 - 3.0 acres 2 - 6.0 acres 15 - 12.7 acres 3 - 8.6 acres 16 - 10.0 acres 4 - 8.0 acres 17 - 10.6 acres 5 - 10.0 acres 18 - 4.3 acres 6 - 10.0 acres 19 - 8.0 acres 7 - 9.9 acres 20 - 4.0 acres 8 - 6.2 acres 21 - 3.0 acres 9 - 15.0 acres 22 - 5.8 acres I 10 - 6.0 acres The remaining acreage within each tract shall be zoned as Public Lands & Institutions (PLI).

This involved extending the pipe from the former terminus approximately one-hundred feet further. However, instead of a detention basin, a six foot by eight foot grouted gravel pit would be installed below I the pipe. This could be screened with shrubbery so as to be hardly visible. The entire installation would be just above a natural drainage swale lying between the east end of Pinecrest Drive northeastward. Experience had shown that effects of heavy rainfall were dissipated within a few feet once in this swale. This alternate had been submitted to the Hyalite Subdivision residents, and had been rejected unanimously. The preference of the neighborhood was to extend the pipe under- ground completely through and below the subdivision. To do this would mean adding $40,000.00 to the drainage S.I.D., which is the third of three alternates discussed by the Commission on this date. The first was the alternate as described above and the second was to do absolutely noth- ing with surface water from Graf's First Addition. Mr. Walt Kelly and Mr. Hayden Mikkelson were present, representing the Hyalite Subdivision residents. These gentlemen participated in the discussion with the City Commission. After comments by all concerned, it was moved by Commissioner Swanson, seconded by Commissioner Mathre, that the alternate design submitted by Thomas, Dean & Hoskins, Inc., (pipe extended and a grouted gravel pit below outlet) be approved subject to approval of the specified plan by the State Health Department and upon approval of the plan to be implemented.
