Decision - Preliminary Plat Review - Valley Unit No. 2 Mobile Home Subdivision
This was the time and place set for a decision on the preliminary plat review for the
Valley Unit No. 2 Mobile Home Subdivision, as it was continued from last week's meeting, so
that a full Commission may consider the matter.
City Manager Evans recommended that municipal utilities and other services never be
extended beyond the corporate limits of the city. He stated that he feels that the mobile
home subdivision is needed in the area, but does not feel that the City should provide the
municipal services because the area is not within the city limits. He also recommended that,
if approval is granted, the conditions as set down in his recommendation for conditional I
approval be adopted. These conditions are a compilation of the conditions set forth by the
Planning Staff and the County Commissioners, with some revisions.
The area under consideration is not contiguous to the city. However, a waiver of
annexation has been signed, so the entire subdivision could be annexed. The entire parcel
is owned by a single party.
It was moved by Commissioner Vollmer that, based on the undisputed need; based on
the fact that the City Commission has amended the Master Plan for this specific type of
development at this location; based on the fact that the City Commission has changed the
zoning for this specific location for this specific type of project; based on the record made
at the Planning Board hearing; based on the vote of approval by the Planning Board members,
including Commissioner Swanson; and further based on the fact that any disadvantages are
far outweighed by the public interest that this subdivision would serve, that the preliminary
plat for Valley Unit Mobile Home Subdivision be approved subject to the following conditions:
1. That, while it will not be a mandatory requirement of the developer to provide off-
site improvements, Durston Road must be paved to the east end of the Mobile Home I
Subdivision, Cottonwood Road must be paved from Highway 191 to Durston Road,
and Babcock must be paved from Ferguson Lane to Cottonwood Road prior to final
approval of any phase of the project being granted, and Durston Road must be paved
to the west end of the development prior to final approval of Valley Unit No. 2 Mobile
Home Subdivision Phase III.
2. That the right-of-way of Upper Springs Road be extended to the southern property
boundary so that a future tie between Babcock and Durston may be made.
3. That the curve radius and cul-de-sac radius be shown on the final plat.
4'65
4. That the results of the recently completed independent sewage study are reviewed by
the City of Bozeman, and that the developer and the City enter into a written agree-
ment providing for an acceptable method of sewage disposal for the proposed subdi-
vision.
5. That the developer supply information confirming the availability and supply of the
g round water for use in the proposed water system prior to final plat application.
6. That the plans for the proposed water system be approved by the City Engineer and
I City Water Superintendent.
7. That the developer's park and recreation plan be reviewed and approved by the Com-
munity Recreation Board.
8. That the developer submit a standard detail drawing illustrating an economical method
for future property owners to overcome the soils severe frost heave problems for
mobile home pads.
9. That the proposed storm drain plan be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer
and Soil Conservation Service.
10. That the developer submit final landscaping plans as required per City zoning regula-
tions for Planning Staff review and approval.
11. That the forty (40) foot setback on cul-de-sac lots illustrated in the Community
Impact Statement be incorporated into the protective covenants.
12. That the dimensions (size) of the lots be put on the final plat along with the lot and
block numbers.
13. That all roads, culverts, utilities, central water and sewer facilities and related im-
provements be installed prior to final approval or that an Improvements Agreement
providing for all necessary improvements be approved by the Governing Bodies, and
be guaranteed by a means acceptable to the Governing Bodies.
14. That the development be approved by the State Department of Health and Environ-
mental Sciences, the final plat conform to the Uniform Standards for Final Subdivision
Plats and be accompanied by a platting certificate and County Attorney's certificate.
The developer must request the State Department of Health and Environmental Sciences
to consider the impact of the development upon surrounding water wells.
I 15. That any Rural I mprovement Districts or County Water and Sewer Districts to be used
in connection with an Improvements Agreement for proposed initial improvements must
be properly created and approved by the County Commission and the bonds must be
sold prior to final approval. Any Rural Improvement Districts or County Water and
Sewer Districts to be used in connection with later improvements must be properly
created and approved by the County Commission prior to commencement of construction.
16. That, prior to final plat approval, an I mprovements Agreement be developed that is
satisfactory to the Governing Body and the developer to ensure the installation of
improvements, specifically sewer, water and roads as proposed.
The motion died for lack of a second.
It was then moved by Commissioner Stiff, seconded by Commissioner Mathre, that,
while recognizing that the community has an ultimate need for this type of development, the
preliminary plat for Valley Unit No. 2 Mobile Home Subdivision be denied based on the road
problem, which is not fully resolved and a concern about furnishing City services without
annexation. The motion failed by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being
Commissioner Stiff and Commissioner Mathre; those voting No being Commissioner Vollmer,
Commissioner Swanson and Mayor MacNab.
Commissioner Swanson stated that he agrees that there is an undisputed need for this
type of subdivision. He questions the providing of City services to the area. He also feels
I that there could be a sanitary sewer problem. He feels that the road problems have been
partially resolved. Commissioner Swanson stated that the location of a mobile home sub-
division has been a question whenever a subdivision is suggested.
Commissioner Stiff stated that he feels that the Valley Unit No. 2 Subdivision must be
considered as a whole. He stated that where the number of people would come from to
. ~l66
occupy this subdivision has not been discussed. He is concerned that the area would not be
filled unless a large number of people move in from other areas, which he doesn't foresee
happening.
Commissioner Mathre stated that she has heard two different stories regarding the
length of time it will take to fully develop the area.
I Commissioner Vollmer suggested the possibility of total annexation. I
Commissioner Swanson stated that it would take many years to get the tax base back
if the entire area were annexed now and not developed fully for several years. He further
stated that most of his real estate sales have been to out-of-state people. He stated that
they are bringing thei r own money into the area.
Maurice Klabunde stated that he does feel that some of the people presently living in
mobile home parks will move to the subdivision, but not very many. Also, other people will
probably move into those spaces. He stated that he opposes the mobile home subdivision be-
cause of the way it is being handled. He is concerned about the RID's which may be requested
for the development of this subdivision. He feels the concept is a good one and one which
is needed in this area. Mr. Klabunde stated that if the area were annexed to the city, he
would have no objection to the subdivision.
It was then moved by Commissioner Swanson, seconded by Commissioner Vollmer, that
the Commission approve the preliminary plat for the Valley Unit No. 2 Mobile Home Sub-
division, subject to the following conditions, as recommended by the City Manager:

approval of any phase of the project being granted, and Durston Road must be paved
to the west end of the development prior to final approval of Valley Unit No. 2 Mobile

City sub-base standards, an asphalt mat and be not less than twenty-four (24) feet
