REPORT TO: Bozeman Parking Commission
FROM: Ed Meece, Parking Program Manager
SUBJECT: "Temporary On-Street Parking Permits"
MEETING DATE: April 13, 2017
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Action
RECOMMENDATION: The Finance Department issues, and Parking Services
Division enforces, a "Contractor Parking Permit" that does not exist in the municipal
code (or Parking Commission policy). Recommend to the Bozeman City Commission
that they amend the municipal code to create a "Temporary On-Street Parking
Permit" program; and provide recommended guidelines and fee structure.
BACKGROUND: A "Contractor Parking Permit" may be purchased ($10) from the
Finance Department for the purpose of allowing contractors, and related vendors, to park
all day, on street. The administration of this permit program is not within the municipal
code, or policies of the Bozeman Parking Commission. Other than a brief application,
there are no requirements related to, or restrictions on,the issuance of these permits
In many cases, temporary, on street, construction parking is important due to the size and
type of equipment/supplies that need to be accessed, from a vehicle. However, the use of
these permits can consume much of the available on street parking in a given block, or
area, based on the level of nearby construction activity. This results in a lack of access by
customers of other business establishments within the same area.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Parking Enforcement Officers issue Overtime citations to
construction related vehicles that do not obtain a `Contractor Parking Permit'. The only
additional expenditures would result from a rework/reprint of associated forms and
permit hang tags; estimated at less than $200.
In FY 17, the Finance Department has issued 45 ($2,810) of these permits. It is unknown
how the new rate and application structure would affect future sales.
Attachments: Temporary On-Street Parking Permit Guidelines(draft); Temporary On-
Street Parking Permit Application(draft); Construction Permit Research Table.
