Public Hearing - Commission Resolution No. 1869 -SID No. 575 - Paving Hayes Street
Bozeman Creek
This was the time and place set in Commission Resmlution No. 1869, to hear
protests to the creation of Special Improvement District No. 575. Affidavit of
publication of Notice and the Clerk's mailing certlfical~, stating all property
owners had been notified as required by law were presented.
Mr. John Hanton of 1304 South Willson Avenue and Mr. James VanWinkle of l222
South Willson Avenue were present to strongly protest the creation of the district.
Both claimed they would not benefit by the creation of this district as it is pro-
posed to serve only for ingress and-:egress to the Henderson development. Hayes
Street cannot continue through the development, nor proceed eastward from the
development. Both individuals suggested they be omitted completely from the SID I
for paving the street.
Discussion revolved around alternatives to the proposed SID. One such alterna-
tive would be to narrow the street width to approximately twenty-five feet and pro-
hibit parking on both sides. The second alternative would be to simply retain the
street width as proposed, but exclude the abutting property owners from any assess-
ment. The Commission directed the staff to puruse at least these two alternatives
,
with Mr. Henderson and to report back one week hence regarding Mr. Henderson's
reactions.

an foosball parlor
b) Conditional Use Permit Application by Valley Imports for
warehouse storage
This was the time and place 'set for a public hearing to consider the request of
Ronald Gollehon for a conditional use permit to establish a bar and foosball parlor
I on the ground floor of the existing building located at 15 Tai Lane. The area in
question is zoned B-1 (Neighborhood-Busines~ and a bar and foosball parlor would be
a conditional use (retail use serving the consumer directly).
Mr. Konuners, an attorney representing the applicant, stated the owners of the
building support the expansion. The applicant is not starting a new bar but only
expanding on the present location of the Gold Rush Bar.
The Zoning Commission having held a public meeting andhav~ng considered the
Planning Staff's report, recommended approval of the conditional use permit applica-
tion with the following conditions attached:
l. Tha-t the one (l) sign permitted by the ordinance be internally
or indirectly illuminated, be 25 square feet or less in size, and be of
a subdued character (no harsh or glaring color, etc. ) . Further, that
the specific sign be reviewed by thePlanRing Staff as to its compliance
to this criteria before installation.
The Commission concurred in the recommendation of the Zoning Commission, and it
was moved by Commissioner Sedivy, seconded by Commissioner Taylor, that the Commis-
sion concur with the Zoning Commissioner's recommendation and approve the conditional
use permit application for Ronald Gollehan with the above condition. The motion was
I carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Sedivy,
Commissioner Taylor, Commissioner Vandeventer, ~nd Mayor Vollmer; those voting No~none.
This was the time and place set for a public hearing to consider the request of
Valley Imports for a conditional use permit to use the old Eddy's Bakery warehouse
and the open lot next to it for storage of new automobiles. The warehouse is located
at the intersection of North 6th Avenue and Villard Street. The area is zoned R-3.
The conditional use permit is sought to allow the exchange of one non-conforming use
(the bread warehouse) to another non-conforming use (the car storage).
The Zoning Commission, having held a public meeting and having considered the
Planning staff's report, recommended approval of the conditional use permit applica-
tion and would suggest a six-point alternative, which would hopefully be acceptable
to all parties:
l. That all new car storage be placed within the- building and no open
storage be allowed on the site.
2. That the applicant remove all existing signs and no other signs be
added to the building or property.
I 3. That the building and outside area be maintained in a clean, orderly
fashion.
4. That the unloading of cars from transport trucks not be conducted in
this area.
5. That no additional outside lighting be installed.
6. That no type of business or operation other than inside storage of
cars be allowed.

was moved by Commissioner Taylor, seconded by Commissioner Vandeventer, that the .
Commission approve the conditional use permit application for Valley Imports, Inc. ,
