Since, the May 11, 2017, regular meeting where the Bozeman Parking Commission discussed a request from ARO Fraternity for extension of the MSU Residential Parking Permit District, to include Greek Way, the PPM has developed information related to some of the items discussed by the Parking Commission: • Although ARO has not undertaken a formal bidding process, their estimate from a local builder, for construction of a single paved parking strip on the adjoining property, is in the range of$50,000 to$75,000. • According to the Public Works Department, there are not any road width concerns with parking on both sides of Greek Way. However, it was signed 'No Parking' prior to 2003, when the designation changed at the request of the 'Greek Way Apartments' developer. • The Bozeman Municipal Code (36.04.330) does not have a provision that requires a minimum percentage of property owners to agree with a request for the extension of a residential parking permit district(copies attached). • The PPM had a conversation with the management of the Greek Way Apartments regarding the requested district extension. They stated opposition to the extension, in concern that this would leave individuals visiting apartments in their development without a place to park. In addition, they are concerned it would push additional illegal parkers into their complex as well. • Each member of the ARO fraternity house (as well as the Greek Way Apartments) would be eligible to purchase an MSU Residential Permit. However, each structure in the permit district is limited to only two visitor permits.

We own two lots on Greek Way. One lot has the Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity house situated on it and the adjoining empty lot is used for parking overflow, Parking in the empty lot has become a problem because of the mud,which is tracked onto Greek Way. The city has ordered us to stop tracking mud onto the street. We do not have the finances available to pave the parking area in the empty lot as the city requests. To stop mud from being tracked onto the street we have closed off access to the lot. The vehicles,which used to park in the empty lot,must now park on Greek Way. Parking can be very difficult during the day because many non-residents park on Greek Way and take all the parking places. If residential-only parking was extended to Greek Way,the undergraduate members of Alpha Gamma Rho could park their vehicles on the street and the mud issue would be resolved. Greek Way can get very narrow in the winter,when the snow is piled on the edges of the street and cars fill the street. With resident-only parking,the number of vehicles on the street will be reduced, This will make plowing easier and the street wider to drive through.
