For the professional services rendered, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor agrees
to indemnify and hold the City harmless against claims, demands, suits, damages, losses, and
expenses, including reasonable defense attorney fees, to the extent caused by the negligence or
willful misconduct of the Contractor or Contractor's agents or employees.

EXHIBIT A — SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 1 — Project Initiation, Project Management, Stakeholder Meetings
1.1; Project Initiation and Project Management
To begin the project, EPS will travel to Bozeman to meet with the City's project manager and to
have an introductory kick-off meeting with the Planning Board. Prior to this meeting, EPS would
begin the research and analysis under Tasks 2 and 3 to update our familiarity with Bozeman and
to inform a discussion guide for the meeting. We would also tour the area and surroundings in
preparation for a series of interviews and stakeholder meetings.
Over the course of the project, we would schedule project management check-in calls every two
weeks with the City's project manager. This will help the consultant team and the City stay
abreast of any current issues and facilitate the flow of information.
1.2: Public Involvement
We have initially proposed a flexible public involvement process that can be better defined with
input from the City. In our experience, these studies are most often used to inform the
comprehensive plan choices, alternatives, and adopted policies in terms of their market
feasibility or degree of impact. Their somewhat technical nature is not best suited to a traditional
public involvement process used in a citywide or neighborhood plan. We therefore propose a
more targeted outreach effort.
Our recommendation is to conduct confidential or small group interviews with major stakeholders
or experts in the various areas of the real estate market and economy.
• Major employers
• Commercial real estate experts (developers and brokers)
• Economic and workforce developers
• Residential developers
• Affordable housing stakeholders
Task 2 — Economic and Demographic Assessment
The economic and demographic assessment will document the baseline trends over the past 15
years in Bozeman covering pre- and post -Great Recession time periods, which have affected
both the housing and commercial development markets.
Economic Trends and Conditions
• Document and analyze employment trends and conditions including the number of jobs by
industry and major employers using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Bureau
of Economic Analysis (BEA), and the Montana Department of Labor. Previous work on
targeted industry clusters in the City's Economic Development Strategy will be incorporated.
DD: 406-582-2301 THE MOST LIVABLE PLACE.
BOZ E MAN MT
Community Development
• Summarize workforce demographics including occupations and educational attainment.
• Quantify and illustrate commuting patterns in and out of Bozeman by year.
• Determine the strengths and weaknesses of the existing employment sectors; assess near
and long term prospects for growth.
Demographic and Housing Trends
• Analyze trends in population, age distribution, households, group quarters and the student
population, and race and ethnicity. Data sources will include the US Census and third party
demographic data providers.
• Inventory the existing housing and categorize it by housing type and location. Analyze trends
in household size, household type, units in structure, and affordability metrics such as cost
burden.
• Depending on data availability and data structure, use County Assessor parcel data and/or
City and County building permit data for a richer analysis of housing types and lot sizes
(densities) by year built to document market trends in residential densities. Some of the
housing analysis will be conducted under Task 4 (Housing Market) to paint the complete
picture.
Task 3 — Commercial Real Estate Market
The major components of the commercial real estate market are employment supporting land
uses such as retail, office, industrial, warehousing, and R&D space. Flexible and shared
workspace formats are also becoming more popular nationally. Under this task we will document
development trends in Bozeman and the greater Bozeman market to document the City's
historical market share compared to the surrounding communities and unincorporated area.
• Compile development data from a variety of sources including building permits, assessor
parcel data, the CoStar commercial property database, and local published statistics from
brokerage firms.
• Document and analyze development trends and market share by land use type and area of
the County including the City of Bozeman.
• Identify and characterize major submarkets for each land use type.
• Assess the strengths and weaknesses of each market segment in terms of the City's ability to
be competitive for employment and retail development that support both economic
development and quality of life.
The evolution of the retail market will be an important area of focus. Vibrant downtowns and
neighborhood commercial districts are important to quality of life and place, yet the number of
potential retailers and other tenant types to fill mixed use space has diminished with the growth
DD: 406-582-2301 THE MOST LIVABLE PLACE.
BOZ E MAN MT
Community Development
of online retail. In some cases, restaurants and entertainment can fulfill this role. We will need to
evaluate the impact of these trends on the most important commercial areas in Bozeman.
Task 4 - Residential Real Estate Market
The residential market analysis will address these types of questions and issues related to the
sustainable growth of Bozeman:
• How does construction (supply) relate to the growth in population and employment?
• Is the market constrained or underserved, and if so who is underserved?
• Is there a sufficient diversity of housing coming online to meet the needs of today's and
tomorrow's residents and workers?
EPS will perform a housing market analysis for the City to quantify housing supply and housing
demand. We will also document and evaluate sale and rental price trends and compare to wages
and household incomes to gauge affordability conditions.
• Housing Inventory - EPS will collect and analyze secondary data on the ownership and
rental housing inventory. Using Gallatin County Assessor parcel -level data, supplemented by
U.S. Census/ACS block group level data, EPS will identify the type, magnitude and condition
of housing throughout the City, distinguishing also between single-family, multifamily, and
group quarters housing.
• Housing Construction, Sales, and Rental Trends - EPS will work with the City to identify
a stakeholder that may be able to provide detailed statistics from the multiple listing services
(MLS). This will allow for a robust analysis of residential sales prices, as Montana statute
does not allow assessors to disclose sale prices. Absent MLS data, we will need to rely on
other less detailed sources such as brokerage reports and Census data. Construction trends
will be documented and analyzed from City and County building permit data and assessor
parcel data.
Task 5 - Emerging Development Trends
After completing tasks 2 through 4, EPS will have thoroughly documented the market trends and
opportunities in Bozeman. Drawing from our knowledge and experience working in other
markets, and from a literature search in real estate and planning publications, we will identify
other development formats that could be in demand in Bozeman but are not yet supplied. Some
major themes could include:
• Retail evolution - How will online retail continue to affect Bozeman's retail development
opportunities? What new concepts could be viable?
• Housing market expectations - Will the market for ownership housing continue to improve?
How will the housing choices of millennials change as they age?
DD: 406-582-2301 THE MOST LIVABLE PLACE.
BOZEMAN
MT
Community Development
• Workplace trends - How much of Bozeman's workforce is "location neutral"? Will this grow?
Will the demand for co -working space be significant or a small niche? Are there any industrial
and R&D innovations relevant to Bozeman?
Task 6 - Land Demand Forecasts
To inform the land use and Growth Policy elements of the Comprehensive Plan, EPS will prepare
land demand (acreage) projections by major land use type. First, we will develop a 20-30 year
housing and employment projection (time period tied to the long range planning time horizon).
Using the analysis in the previous tasks to inform the assumptions on the land use mix, EPS will:
• Project the mix of housing types and resulting acreages at approximate densities;
• Project employment and retail space and acreage at approximate densities;
• Develop one to two policy -based land demand scenarios showing the impact of different
housing mix and density targets.
Task 7 - Draft and Final Reports
EPS will prepare draft and final reports to document the key information and analyses and input
from stakeholders described in this draft work plan. Since this document will have a broad audience
ranging from staff to elected officials and the public, EPS will make it reader -friendly by avoiding
technical jargon and relying primarily on charts, figures, and maps. Two rounds of revisions are
assumed in the budget from two sets of consolidated comments provided by the client.
Task 8 - Planning Board and City Commission
Task 1 describes a kick off meeting and targeted interviews with key stakeholders, employers,
real estate experts, and economic developers (Trip 1). This task includes the other key meetings
and presentations to the City Boards and Commissions. We recommend that senior EPS staff
attend these meetings in-person for a better dialogue on these topics, which may be complex
and abstract in nature.
• Trip 2 - Present initial findings to Planning Board and Economic Development Council
• Trip 3 - Present draft report to City Commission
• Trip 4 - Present final report to City Commission
