B16-100 Dear Courtney, On behalf of the Bozeman School District (District), please find attached the annexation application and zone map amendment of the property located between Cottonwood Road, Oak Street, and Flanders Mill Road. As you are aware from past meetings, this will be the location of the second Bozeman High School. In addition to the attached information, this letter is intended to outline the District’s desired development plan. The proposed school is planned to be constructed in one phase starting in the spring of 2018 and opening its doors in the fall of 2020. The maximum anticipated student population is 1,500 students. It is anticipated that it will take several years to reach this capacity. Offsite Improvements 1. Construction of the east half of Cottonwood Road between Durston Road and Oak Street. This would not include the intersection of Cottonwood Road and Durston as this is scheduled to be constructed by the City as CIP project SIF 036 in FY 2018. There are no proposed City of Bozeman utilities associated with constructing the east half of Cottonwood Road with the exception of associated storm drainage infrastructure. A request has been submitted to the City Engineering Department that Capital Improvements Program (CIP) items SIF 098 and 105 be moved from unscheduled to scheduled projects. These projects include the Oak Street and Cottonwood Road roundabout and Cottonwood Road improvements. Specific improvement requirements and financial responsibilities are still being coordination between the City and the District. 2. Construction of Oak Street. This would not include the intersection of Oak Street and Flanders Mill Road as this is currently being constructed as part of the Flanders Mill Subdivision. In conjunction with Oak Street, a precast concrete pedestrian tunnel is proposed under Oak Street between Flanders Mill Road and Cottonwood Road. City of Bozeman utilities proposed with Oak Street include associated storm drainage infrastructure and a twelve-inch water main in accordance with the City of Bozeman Master Water Plan. A request has been submitted to the City Engineering Department that Capital Improvements Program (CIP) items SIF 098 and 134 be moved from unscheduled to scheduled projects. These projects include the Oak Street and Cottonwood Road roundabout and Oak Street improvements. Specific PAGE NO. 2 tdhengineering.com SEPTEMBER 12, 2017 improvement requirements and financial responsibilities are still being coordination between the City and the District. 3. Proposed construction of a shared 300-space parking lot north of Oak Street on the City’s Sports Park Complex. This parking lot and adjacent sports field(s) will be addressed in a separate interlocal agreement between the City and the School District. Onsite Improvements 4. Construction of an approximate 303,000 square foot (sf), three-story high school building. The proposed buildings footprint is approximately189,225 sf with possible future additions of approximately 13,800 sf. 5. Construction of two parking lots (474 stalls total) and associated access drives. 6. Construction of water mains necessary to provide fire hydrants and service connections in the vicinity of the new school building. 7. Construction of a secondary east/west water main between Cottonwood Road and Flanders Mill Road. 8. Construction of a sewer service from the school to the existing 8-inch sewer stub on the northwest side of the site. 9. Construction of a multiuse 10-foot path in the Annie Street corridor from Cottonwood Road to Flanders Mill Road. Exclusions 1. The District requests a Bozeman City Commission variance allowing the District to construct Annie Street as a discontinuous street. This is proposed to minimize cut- through traffic across the campus for increased student and visitor safety. We appreciate the assistance, meetings, and dialog the City of Bozeman has provided and look forward to working together through annexation and infrastructure design. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments.

B16-100 ZONE MAP AMENDMENT REQUIREMENTS NARRATIVE The Second High School Annexation is legally described as Tract 1A2 of Certificate of Survey (COS) 2554B. The proposed zoning designation is Public Lands and Institutions (PLI). The following is a response to the Zone Map Amendment Requirements 1a through 1k: a. Is the new zoning designed in accordance with the growth policy? How? Yes. Zoning PLI is compatible with The Bozeman Community Plan adopted by the Bozeman City Commission under Resolution No. 4163 on June 1, 2009 also known as Bozeman’s Growth Policy. The Growth Policy identifies the majority of the subject property as Future Residential and approximately 8 acres in the northeast corner as Future Community Commercial Mixed Use. As a community grows, infrastructure needs such as schools have to be accommodated as they fit into the community. According to City of Bozeman planning staff, PLI zoning is in harmony with the future use under the Growth Policy. b. Will the new zoning secure safety from fire and other dangers? How? This ZMA will help secure safety from fire and other hazards. In Zoning PLI buildings and other potential fire hazards are more widely spaced than in residential zones. This helps reduce the risk of fire. The proposed school will meet all local fire codes. It will include extensions of water mains and several new fire hydrants. c. Will the new zoning promote public health, public safety, and general welfare? How? Public health, safety and welfare will be promoted by this project. The uses allowed under Zoning PLI includes schools, parks, community centers, and other facilities that are essential to a quality urban setting. d. Will the new zoning facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewerage, schools, parks, and other public requirements? How? This ZMA and the associated annexation and school will involve construction of water mains and service lines. Oak Street will be constructed, making it a though street from Flanders Mill Road to Cottonwood Road. The east side of Cottonwood Road will be tdhengineering.com constructed. Street and pedestrian easements will be dedicated to the City that enhance local transportation. The school and associated open lands will enhance the neighborhood. e. Will the new zoning provide reasonable provision of adequate light and air? How? Adequate light and air already exist at this site. Typically, the uses allowed under PLI Zoning do not significantly degrade the quality or quantity of light and air. f. Will the new zoning have an effect on motorized and non-motorized transportation systems? How? This ZMA will have a positive effect on transportation systems. Zoning PLI and the associated school will enhance motorized traffic flow through the construction of Oak Street and the east half of Cottonwood Road. The site layout includes 2 points of access from Cottonwood Road and 2 from Flanders Mill Road. Pedestrian and bicycle traffic is enhanced by sidewalks along each of these 4 accesses, along Cottonwood road, along Oak Street, and by a proposed walk connecting the subject property to the Sports Park to the north. g. Does the new zoning promote compatible urban growth? How? Yes, this zoning designation is compatible with the neighboring zones. Growth has already occurred to the west of the site in Flanders Creek Subdivision and is in the process of occurring to the east in the recently platted Phase 3 of Flanders Mill Subdivision. Zoning the subject property PLI helps create a quarter mile wide strip with this zoning designation that provides variety and open space within, and between, residential neighborhoods. The residential nature of this area contributes to the need for the type of land use allowed in PLI zoning. h. Does the new zoning promote the character of the district? How? The character of the district is promoted by its appropriate use. A school is an appropriate use. i. Does the new zoning address the affected area’s peculiar suitability for particular uses? How? Zoning PLI makes this property suitable for its intended use. It affects the surrounding area by providing a necessary function in an urban setting. j. Was the new zoning adopted with a view to conserving the values of buildings? How? There are no existing buildings to conserve on this property. The new zoning designation is being adopted so that the subject property can provide a useful and necessary function in the community. The proposed school building will be designed and constructed in a manner that best serves the taxpayers; conserving the value of a public building is one of many considerations taken into account during its design. k. Does the new zoning encourage the most appropriate use of land throughout the tdhengineering.com jurisdictional area? A new high school and its associated infrastructure is the most appropriate use of this land. Zoning PLI is a zoning designation that conforms best to this use.
