RECOMMENDED MOTION: In consideration of all public input and materials presented to

in accordance with the Bozeman Municipal Code Section 26.02.220.
BACKGROUND: A park master plan for the Oak Meadows subdivision, dated December 27,
2006 was submitted in as part of the Oak Meadows subdivision development (Attachment A). The Homeowners Association (HOA) of Oak Meadows subdivision has submitted an application for use cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication funds for development of the subdivision’s park, which includes an amended park master plan (“Exhibit A” to Resolution 4830). The plan includes
play equipment and site furnishings typically found in a neighborhood park, which would better
serve the residents of the subdivision.
The Oak Meadows HOA formed a park improvement working group and obtained input from the residents of the subdivision in a series of informal meetings over the past six months. The Oak Meadows HOA board has approved the amended Park Master Plan as submitted in the HOA’s
application for use of cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication funds for development of the park. Parks
department staff therefore feel adequate public input has been obtained for the amendment. The Recreation and Parks Advisory Board at their regular meeting on June 8, 2017, unanimously approved a motion recommending Commission allocate cash-in-lieu funds to implement the
amended master plan for Oak Meadows Park. In keeping with the provisions of Section 1.8.2 of
the Parks, Recreation, Open Space and Trails (PROST) Plan, following the RPAB’s recommendation, the Commission then makes a decision regarding the amendment.
