Action Items Discuss/Approve/Deny a request from Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity to extend the MSU Residential Parking Permit District to include both sides of Greek Way. (See Attachment Exhibit 2) Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity had previously stated that the cost to pave their vacant lot for additional parking was cost prohibitive. They could not afford to have it done while still keeping rents affordable for its members. Over a third of the property owners on Greek Way are not in favor of expanding the MSU Residential District. Kelly Wiseman made a motion to recommend the approval for the request from Alpha Gamma Rho to extend the MSU Residential Parking District. This motion was seconded by Ryan Olson. The motion failed.

(See Attachment Exhibit 4) Chris brought up that South Black Ave has alternating days for street maintenance letting residences park on at least one side of the street any night of the week. Could the alternating days be applied to the other Downtown streets to free up parking spaces? Cyndy asked that we look at this issue based on the strategic plan provided by Rick Williams Consulting. Ben Bennett suggested capitalizing on parking that we already have, more of a management solution rather than construction. Chris pointed out that part of the Bozeman Parking Commissions Guiding Principles is to “create capacity through existing supply”. Ed said he would be cautious that this could be a silver bullet. The expectation that we could create parking quickly because street maintenance signs have been removed or changed could create problems. This could also cause other issues with the Streets Department. Public Comment-Leif Sundeen residence of 5 East Lamme Street A lot of businesses and developments were built with those parking restrictions already in place and changing the restrictions may impact those existing developments. We need to make sure it matches the requirements for zoning that is already in place when structures were built. Ed will follow up on these suggestions and will report back at the July Bozeman Parking Commission meeting. Election of Chair and Vice-Chair for Fiscal Year 2017.
