Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Anna Rosenberry, Assistant City Manager
Kristin Donald, Finance Director
SUBJECT: Approval of the General Fund Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for
Fiscal Years 2019-2023
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Action
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2017
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the General Fund Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for
Fiscal Years 2019-2023.
BACKGROUND: Each year, the City Manager is required to prepare a multi-year Capital
Improvements Plan and submit it to the Commission by December 15th. The City’s General
Fund portion of the CIP contains, by far, the greatest number of capital items and pays for a
broad range of departmental needs. During the months of October, November, and December
numerous staff meetings have taken place to develop this recommended plan.
The plan includes capital items from eleven different departments in the General Fund. There
are over $66 million in equipment and projects recommended within the next five budget-years.
There are also an additional $11 million in projects that are “unscheduled”; they are either not
ready to schedule or their funding has not been developed within the 5 year plan.

There are four scheduled projects in the plan that have an estimated combined cost of over $57
million, representing 85% of the total scheduled costs. We expect that each project will require
voter approval of a mill levy increase or issuance of bonds.
While our capital plans for the past 5 years have included both the Law & Justice Center (in
some form or another) and an Aquatics Facility, the replacements of Fire Station #1 and Fire
Station #2 are new this year.
Parks department scheduled capital for FY20-FY23 will be moved to a separate Parks
Maintenance District Fund CIP upon the successful creation of a District (scheduled in FY19.)
You will see in the Financial Summary were we adjust the General Fund CIP Project costs by the
amount of Parks capital in those years. We do not reduce General Fund revenues in those years;
we will need the current (and slightly increasing) revenues to continue to pay for General Fund
capital.
Summary of Unscheduled Projects:
The largest single unscheduled project is GF219 – Addition to City Hall, Consolidation of
Services estimated at $5.5 Million. This has been discussed as a project that would be needed
within the 6-10 year timeframe. Refer to the attached CIP schedule for the details of other
unscheduled projects.

Items of particular note this year are:
1. Timing of voter-based initiatives are highlighted in orange in the attached Financial
Summary:
a. Law & Justice Center- GF263 project is currently being examined by the City
and the County. For this plan we represented the option the County was favoring.
This is planned to be funded through bond issuance/mill levy question to city
voters in both FY19 (Law Enforcement Building) and FY21 (Justice Building.)
i. Last year, the CIP was adopted without including the Law & Justice
Center project because of the uncertainty of how we would proceed.
b. Fire Station #1 Relocation- GF306 has been recommend in the Fire Master Plan
and the current Station is in need of repairs in order to remain in service longer. It
is likely we would be selling the existing site to reduce the costs of building a new
station; however, we haven’t estimated the value of the current site that would
off-set the costs. We have also not included any amounts from the Fire
Equipment and Capital Replacement Fund for this project, which we could
consider. As we move forward with planning, those amounts could be known.
c. Aquatics Facility & Projects – GF056 and GF137 have been on the plan and
would require a voter approved levy and bond issuance in FY22.
d. Fire Station #2 Relocation – GF305 was also recommended in the Fire Master
Plan. Similar to Station #1, it is likely we would be selling the existing site to
reduce the costs of the new station. The value of the current site isn’t know, but
could be determined at a future date. We have also not included any amounts
from the Fire Equipment and Capital Replacement Fund for this project, which
we could consider. This project is planned for FY23.
e. Parks Maintenance District creation – the city has funded a Feasibility Study
that will be presented in early 2018. The creation would create a new, separate
fund for the district that would include capital items. This plan anticipates the
District being created in FY19, with its first assessments and funding in FY20.
As a result, we show the Park Department capital items “moved to their own
fund,” and would be removed from the General Fund plan in the Financial
Summary beginning in FY20
120
2. Other projects and equipment of note added to the plan this year:
a. Software and Technology enhancement and updates. Specifically the
Commission room - GF283 and Laserfiche - GF284 for records management.
SunGuard Analytics Software - GF224 is moved forward a year due to needs of
various departments.
b. Vehicle and equipment additions and replacements. Police and Parks have their
rotation of vehicle replacements with some additions. Police added an additional
patrol car and non-patrol cars. Recreation is requesting a vehicle replacement in
FY20 and a new van in FY21.
c. Facilities and Aquatics have maintenance and replacement requests to keep
buildings and equipment working and up to standards.
3. In order to continue to make the necessary improvements and equipment purchases, we
need to make increased funding available for capital projects in the General Fund.
This plan makes a 3-pronged recommendation that will make more money available for
projects.
a. Increased borrowing: The planned voter-approved bonds, as discussed above.
b. The Park Maintenance District, if created, is funded by a separate assessment
without decreasing the General Fund revenue dedicated to capital.
c. Annual General Fund Revenues available for Capital Improvements have been
increased to 3% in FY20, and to 3.5% in FY21. In order to accomplish this and
actually fund the capital projects listed, we will need to prioritize capital projects
ahead of the growth of the other portions of the General Fund budget going
forward.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES: Law and Justice Center plans with the County, timing of Fire
Station relocation and the possible creation of a Park Maintenance District.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. If the Commission does not
wish to adopt this schedule tonight, it can be scheduled for approval on a later agenda.
121
FISCAL EFFECTS: This step in the process has no fiscal effect. Once adopted, the
Capital Improvements Plan becomes the basis of the City Manager’s Recommended Budget for
FY19. Projects and equipment purchases can only be made after being included in an Approved
Budget.

PROFESSIONAL BUILDING ELEVATOR REPLACEMENT
FY19 FY20 Unscheduled
$66,600
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The elevator in the Professional Building is a three stop Otis elevator. The elevator was installed when the second floor was
added in 1972. Since the City purchased the building we have remodeled several areas on both the main floor and second floor –
the elevator remains original and is approaching 44 years of continued use. The elevator is to the point where many technological
improvements have been made in elevator technology and a change out would yield both improved service and some reductions
in energy costs. The elevator is inspected annually and is still safe although there are some inherent problems with the operation
of the elevator. Of the four elevators owned by the City, this system experiences the most downtime. One big problem is the
leveling systems and the way the rails and tracks are mounted in the building. The elevator will malfunction and require resetting if
it loaded heavy to one side. A new car and track system would solve the nuisance trips associated with this aging elevator.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue to maintain and adjust the elevator operating systems throughout the year.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Increase reliability and reduced maintenance costs. Some electrical savings associated with improved electric motors.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Ongoing cemetery mower replacement program. Scheduled on a five year replacement program, with the oldest cemetery mower
now being 5 years old. Proposing to go back to the three replacement cycle, due to numerous breakdowns after the three year
mark. These mowers are used to complete the mowing 53+ acres of turf inside and outside the cemetery which include mowing
of the open space, trails, and the weekly mowing through the headstones.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Keep older mowers for extended periods of time, which has been done as we moved to a 5 year replacement program instead of a 3 year
program.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Less down time; Decreased repair /maintenance costs; High trade –in value; Increased productivity; Less emissions.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Routine maintenance, oil changes, fuel.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The General Fund contributes funds every other year towards improving park infrastructure through implementation of park
master plans. This grant program is a matching funds program in which the City receives a minimum 1 to 1 match from the
recipient. The Commission has established a formal grant policy by resolution. By switching to every other year, and also
increasing the allocation, bigger projects can be accomplished, though these projects will take more time to complete.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Handle park equipment and improvement requests on an adhoc basis, as various donors or service groups bring them forward. Allocate more or
fewer dollars to the program.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
This matching funds program provides critical infrastructure to the park system by utilizing the talents of our community members through
matching funds, donations, labor in lieu of and numerous specialized services. All of the above can be used as a match in this program
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: New infrastructure and facilities bring on increased maintenance and labor costs. The nature of each
project funded will determine the continued costs. Some projects have very low ongoing costs, others have relatively higher costs.

Proper mowing of sports fields and formal parks are imperative to safety. Regular replacement will reduce maintenance costs and decrease the
number of breakdowns we have been experiencing. Well mowed parks are an important reflection on our City and how it is perceived by
visitors and citizens. New mowers will be more reliable, safer, productive, and will reduce the workload on the vehicle maintenance shop
personnel. Well maintained sports fields have proven to be a vital component to the economic growth of our community, by attracting regional
and state tournaments to Bozeman.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Improve scheduling of mowing and increase crew efficiency because of reliable equipment.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The police department has unmarked vehicles used by command staff, detectives and some support positions. Some of these
vehicles are used for support operations, such as animal control, community resource officer, code compliance, etc…. Command
and detective vehicles are assigned and used to respond to emergency calls for command/control or investigations. Generally
vehicle replacement of these vehicles involves buying used, lower mileage vehicles with some trade-in done by higher mileage
vehicles nearing the end of time to operate safely. Decisions on when to rotate these vehicles is usually higher mileage than a
normal police car and dependent largely on track history for maintenance concerns. In FY19 and FY21 we have 2 detective
vehicles in need of replacement. Cost estimates involve buying a lower mileage or lease return vehicle, not a new vehicle. In
FY20 and FY22 we anticipate adding two School Resource Officer Positions to cover the new Bozeman High School and increased
demand for police services at all schools. In FY22 and FY23 we have identified 3 admin vehicles that will need replacement. These
are used by command officers for daily and on-call response throughout the city.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Each year we assess each purchase decision. At times we may be able to convert a marked police car to a detective use, when the vehicle is no
longer trustworthy to the levels of immediate emergency response, but could be used for a year or two as an unmarked support vehicle.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
2 of these vehicles are new and essential. The replacements are also essential and continue to provide safe and reliable transportation. These
unmarked cars tend to last for at least 15 years.

$680,000
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
This plan allows for a number of patrol cars to be replaced each year, including all of the necessary vehicle equipment (top lights,
sirens, radio, mobile data terminals, video cameras, electronic reporting / ticketing systems, etc.) Costs are based on actual costs
in FY18 of $61,000 per vehicle and anticipated increases in FY19 and beyond. Patrol vehicles are an essential item in the operation
of the Bozeman Police Department, being the primary tool used for over 50,000 Response to Calls each year. Police vehicles must
be available for police patrol and emergency call response 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. These vehicles are used to respond to
both emergency and non-emergency calls for service, investigate vehicle crashes, conduct traffic enforcement and for general
patrol duties. These patrol vehicles average approximately 20,000 miles annually. Vehicles earmarked for replacement will have a
minimum estimated 110,000 miles per vehicle, which with police emergency response tends to be the rough time when police
vehicles are no longer safe for emergency response. An additional 10 patrol vehicles will need replacement after FY23. A review
of mileage and estimated staffing increases in patrol by 2-3 officers over the next few years has also led to the identified need for
an additional patrol vehicle in FY21. This won’t replace a vehicle and brings the total patrol response vehicles to 23 (1 unmarked /
2 K9 vehicles / 20 fully marked)
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
None.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
This helps us plan for safe and reliable emergency response vehicles for patrol use, as well as projected lower annual maintenance costs. This
program would allow for the replacement of older, higher mileage patrol cars that become less reliable and more costly to repair. Equipment
components mounted inside the car can sometimes be transferred from the old car to the new car, depending on the condition. These
replacements continue to bring the department closer to 100% matching Ford SUV patrol vehicles.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
These are replacement vehicles. Recurring costs frequently decline as newer cars replace older ones. Maintenance costs have stabilized due to
regularly scheduled service, even though calls for service have increased and additional officers have been hired.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Replace or install ADA upgrades in various city-owned buildings. Work examples include: door hardware, handrails, parking
signage and stalls, building access, etc. The Facilities Superintendent has been working with the ADA advisory committee to
provide recommendations to the City on priority order for any upgrades or improvements that may be identified to make our
facilities and programs more accessible. This money has been used, and will continue to be used to improve accessibility as
demonstrates a commitment from the City to address ADA issues. Based on the initial review of the work to be done the dollar
amount should be increased in order to complete the improvements within the needed timeframe.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
When remodels are initiated on buildings they are brought up to current ADA requirements as per regulations. There are changes to the ADA
that took effect in March 2011. We will continue to make upgrades as changes are made to buildings but this budget item would accelerate the
compliance for city buildings.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
It has been the policy of the city to meet the full spirit of the law as outlined in the ADA regulations. By taking the initiative to bring all our
buildings up to current standards we can provide a positive example to the community in meeting the needs of people with restricted or limited

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The elevator at the Bozeman Senior Social Center is a three stop Otis elevator. The elevator was installed in early 1980 and is at
the point where many technological improvements have been made in elevator technology. A change out would yield both
improved service and some reductions in energy costs. While the elevator is inspected annually and is safe, it is used heavily by the
members of the Senior Center. Planning ahead for the replacement of the elevator will be more cost effective and avoid
unnecessary down time during the replacement process. The elevator maintenance contractor has recommended this be the first
elevator replaced by the City.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue to maintain and adjust the elevator operating systems as needed. Wait to replace the elevator until it physically breaks down or
continue to monitor the operation and hold off on the replacement until the routine repair and maintenance costs exceed acceptable limits

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Currently the Police Department has two police motorcycles and one used solely for training. Patrol motorcycles are an essential
item in the traffic enforcement division, used for a portion of the over 13,000 traffic stops, crashes, and citations each year. These
motorcycles are used from March to October each year and are responsible for a portion of the response to both emergency and
non-emergency calls for service, investigate accidents, conduct traffic enforcement and general patrol duties. In FY18 we did not
deploy the motorcycles because of staffing shortages and have plans to deploy in FY19. The current motorcycles will not need
replacement during the next 5 years.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
None.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
This ensures safe and reliable emergency response vehicles for patrol use, as well as lower annual maintenance costs. For the traffic division to
be effective, this equipment must be kept in top operating condition. Police motorcycles are available for police patrol use during the day and
when the city streets are clear enough to ride.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
In FY18 the department and City has been in conversations and planning with Gallatin County 9-1-1 to improve radio
communication that has become an operational and safety concern. Regardless of the final improvements to infrastructure, one of
the identified needs for replacement is subscriber units (portable radios used by officers and mobile radios used in emergency
response vehicles).The replacement of these subscriber units (radios) are a major stop to improving communications and
responses capabilities. These radios are an essential item in the operation of the Bozeman Police Department, being a critical
communication tool used for over to 50,000 Response to Calls each year. Police radios must be available for police use 24 hours a
day, 365 days a year. These radios are individually assigned, allowing for greater longevity, and department-wide communication in
the event of a need for major response. The City Commission approved purchasing these units, which are currently purchased
with payments in FY19 and FY21. These radios will have at least a 10 year use for emergency response. This purchase included
70 Portable (handheld) radios and 27 mobile (vehicle) radios. This amount represents just the police department share of
purchases.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
No other alternatives at this time.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
This ensures safe and reliable emergency communication and response. Program allows for a planned and predictable need for equipment
replacement. Clear and dependable communication allows for quick and efficient deployment and the required level of officer safety.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The City is responding to growth by adding staff to meet the increased demand for services in our community. We have also
reorganized divisions (Community Development) and created other divisions (Stormwater) to improve efficiency and better serve
our community. In order to accommodate this growth, we need to remodel the Stiff Building. In FY16 the City Commission
approved Phase 1 of the remodel which will provide better use of existing space by relocating certain functions to the basement
and repurposing unused square footage. Approval of Phase II would allow the consolidation of Community Development
(Planning and Building) together on one floor and the consolidation of Public Works Services (Engineering, GIS and Stormwater)
together on another floor. This will allow better coordination of staff and better service to our public.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue to operate as we are today
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Community Development would be able to consolidate its operations and services to allow for an integrated customer-focused service delivery
model. It will also provide Public Works with the ability to collocate its services in the Stiff Building. Finally it will help the City to take a planned

PROFESSIONAL BUILDING RECONFIGURATION - Phase 2
FY19
$136,186
FY20 Unscheduled
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The City is responding to growth by adding staff to meet the increased demand for services in our community. We have also
reorganized divisions (Community Development) and created other divisions (Stormwater) to improve efficiency and better serve
our community. In order to accommodate this grow, we need to remodel the Stiff Building. In FY16 the City Commission
approved a Phase 1 of the remodel that will provide a better use of existing space by relocating certain functions to the basement
and reclaiming unused square footage. Approval of Phase II would allow the consolidation of Community Development (Planning
and Building) together on one floor and the consolidation of Public Works Services (Engineering, GIS and Stormwater) together
on another floor. This will allow better coordination of staff and better service to our public. Phase 1 is anticipated to be
completed late spring of 2016.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue to operate as we are today
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Community Development would be able to consolidate its operations and services to allow for an integrated customer-focused service delivery
model. It will also provide Public Works with the ability to collocate its services in the Stiff Building. Finally it will help the City to take a planned
and efficient approach to building utilization and service optimization.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
No additional operating costs anticipated for building reconfiguration.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Phased Project to move irrigation of cemetery and park lands off treated municipal supply onto raw surface supply previously
decreed to irrigate cemetery lands from the Story Mill Ditch .The planned improvements dramatically reduces the amount of man
hours required to monitor watering during season. Improved irrigation system reduces/eliminates water loss and water is applied
in the most efficient manner maximizing the use of the resource. FY 17: Phase II Design for Irrigation of Cemetery Lands • Inlet
structure and piping • Pump house • Main and laterals • Electrical • Irrigation System Components. FY 18:* Phase III Installation of
Diversion Works Project to Cemetery Lands. FY 19:* Phase IV Extension to Haggerty Fields •Design •Installation.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue to use treated water for cemetery land irrigation.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
The Parks & Rec Department would no longer pay for large quantities of treated water for irrigation. It protects and preserves the City’s most
valuable decreed surface water right and makes available for sale treated water that would otherwise have irrigated the cemetery. The treated
water that is no longer applied to the cemetery and parks irrigation would be available for sale to new water customers enabling future growth
and/or improving the reliability of the City’s water supplies for use in times of drought. Makes available approximately 258 AF of treated water,
valued at $1,548,000.00 available for retail sale for approximately 1,121 SF homes or 2,080 MF homes. increases the reliability of domestic water
supplies in times of drought.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
Pump replacement. It is yet to be determined what additional operations and maintenance costs would be associated with the project during FY
19-21 at this time. This is due to the fact that the feasibility study that will be completed in FY 17 and will identify various alternatives and costs
of each alternative will inform future operations and maintenance costs during FY 19-21. Upon completion of the feasibility study, an alternative
will be selected and projected operations and maintenance costs can be included into the CIP for FY 19-21.

BOGERT POOL RENOVATION
FY19 FY20 Unscheduled
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Bogert Pool is beginning to show its wear faster every year. This project would replace the coping around the pool that is
cracked in several areas and the pool gutters that are cracking, crumbling, and/or lifting from the pool edge. All of the leaks that
could be patched without digging up the bottom of the pool have been patched. There is minimal leaking in the return pipes to
the pool but we recommend repairing the leaks in the returning piping that were identified in May of 2015, before the pool is
blasted with sand or high pressure water, prepped, and resurfaced. The retaining wall is going to be replaced with a wrought iron
fence to allow more visibility to the facility at night and provide more structure, as the current wall is weakening. The sections of
the decking in front of the locker rooms have sunken over the years and will also be replaced. The Bogert Pool renovation or
replacement with an alternate water feature would be added to the Bond Initiative for the Indoor/Outdoor Aquatic Center.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
A new gutter system would mitigate entrapment issues caused by the current gutter system. The current gutters are disintegrating between the
gutter and the ledge of the pool where there gutter sits. Several gutter tiles need to be re-adhered to the pool ledge every spring and often
during the pool season. If a tile is still attached but loose, it can easily be pulled from the wall. Several of the gutter tiles have been replaced
through the years. In many places, a space was not left between the tiles. This doesn’t allow the water to flow into the gutter system for optimal
water circulation. The surface of the pool is currently being patched with hydraulic cement in areas where the plaster is coming up. A new
surface would work to protect the structure of the pool. Making these repairs to Bogert would extend the life of the pool for many years.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
No additional costs would be associated with these repairs.

Energy Projects – City Hall
FY19 FY20 Unscheduled
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
City Hall is a LEED-Silver certified building and is currently underperforming. A recent Energy Star Portfolio Manager review found
that City Hall scored a 30 on a scale of 1 to 100, indicating that the energy performance of the building has declined as equipment
has aged or been replaced, and spaces modified. Retro-commissioning improves efficiency of a building’s equipment and systems;
often resolving problems that occurred during design or construction, or those that develop over time. It is a system-wide
evaluation of opportunities to improve energy performance and occupant comfort. City Hall was first commissioned in 2008
following the remodel. Many issues were addressed at that time, but certain problems related to the heating hot water system
balance were not due to budget constraints. The commissioning report recommended replacement of 24 fin tube balancing valves
and control valves on unit heaters. These components are negatively impacting the operation and efficiency of heating and cooling
systems. Building Commissioning was again identified as a need in the 2014 McKinstry Investment Grade Audit. This project
addresses the mechanical upgrades first identified in the commissioning report from 2008 allowing for a retro-commission for the
building following the mechanical upgrades and AC Condensing Unit replacement.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Improved HVAC system operations and reduced utility costs, based on the known conditions, McKinstry estimates that commissioning would
save at least $2,400 per year. The occupants of the building should experience more even temperatures and improved building airflow and
ventilation. Additional savings may be possible, but not fully understood until all the recommended improvements are identified.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
As owner of the Sports Park property, the City is required to construct a number of street, water, and sewer improvements. In
approval of the Sports Park purchase, $1,778,000 was approved in TOP Bond funding for these infrastructure improvements:
Baxter Lane, Cottonwood Road, Durston/Cottonwood Intersection, Flanders Mill Road (including ditch), and Oak Street. We
estimate that the Bond Funding will not be sufficient to cover the Cottonwood Road (or Oak Street) improvements. We
anticipate needing to build the project-related portions of the Cottonwood Road street-related improvements with Arterial
& Collector District dollars. The related water and sewer-line improvements will need to come from the General Fund. Our
original cost estimates from the Spring of 2014 have been increased by 15% to estimate construction inflation costs.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Delay the improvements.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Proper construction of the adjacent street, water, and sewer improvements, in concert with our development regulations. Better access and
amenities for the Sports Park.

$75,000
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The eventual replacement of the 1992 MT articulating tractor, which does the bulk of the sidewalk snow removal for the Parks
Division, encompassing over 20 miles of sidewalks and four routes to plow. The newest cost saving measure is to share the cost
of a vehicle with Streets. The advantage of the co-op is that Parks needs the vehicle in the winter for plowing and Streets in the
summer for right of way mowing. The Parks and Cemetery divisions are responsible for snow removal on the majority of
sidewalks, paths, accesses and trails that the City is responsible for. The addition of Oak Spring Park, Adam Bronken sidewalk and
the Bozeman Pond expansion has necessitated moving up the request for an additional snow removal vehicle into FY19 instead of
FY20.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Repair and maintain the 1992 MT as needed.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Less down time and maintenance/repair costs. A new MT tractor will be able to support more implements, less emissions and better fuel
economy, faster more efficient use of time which will be a factor with the expanding sidewalk and trail snow removal routes as more parks come
on board such as Bozeman Pond expansion, sports Complex and Story Mill Community Park.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
Annual operating and maintenance costs: better fuel economy and less emissions = less maintenance and operating costs.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue to use the underutilized lot West of City Hall as a community garden.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Parking at City Hall is very limited due to space constraints, this has an impact on City staff, the general public, and visiting guests. Additional
parking spaces in the West lot should take pressure off of street parking around City Hall as well as allow staff to parking in the same lot. This
will free up the East side parking lot for general public during normal business hours. A new lot will also provide a safer parking environment to

City Hall Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle
FY19
$33,000
FY20 Unscheduled
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Bozeman City Hall is in need of an efficient vehicle for staff to conduct daily errands and to attend local and regional meetings. As
part of City Hall’s LEED certification, the building is equipped with a 120v outlet adjacent to the west parking lot for the purpose
of charging an electric vehicle. To demonstrate our commitment to efficiency and to lead by example, we would like to
incorporate Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) technology into our fleet. PHEVs combine a gasoline with an electric motor
and a rechargeable battery. Unlike conventional hybrids, PHEVs can be plugged-in and recharged from an outlet, allowing them to
drive extended distances using just electricity before transitioning to gasoline. PHEVs offer an exceptional range and offer
enhanced reliability by operating on either electricity or gasoline. Currently, City Hall has a Chevy Tahoe with 124,658 and gets 15
MPG compared to an estimated 133 MPGe for a PHEV and a 640 mile driving range. City Hall staff generally borrow a hybrid
vehicle from Public Works for long distance travel, however, this has become increasingly challenging as our staff grows and the
hybrids are often unavailable. The budget includes $2,000 to designate a parking space at City Hall for EV charging.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Leasing for $300 to $380 per month for three years instead of purchasing.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Improved operational efficiency. Most days the vehicle would operate on electricity only, but offers the flexibility to travel long distances.
ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED
Periodic tire replacements and maintenance.

$10,000
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Within a patrol car is a significant amount of technology related auxiliary equipment. This includes a radar unit, Arbitrator Video
Recorder, Electronic ticketing printer, Mobile Data Computer amongst other items. Most of these items are part of a normal
replacement schedule as new patrol vehicles are purchased and old patrol vehicles retired. However, we are finding the need to
address several areas in this category separate from this rotation schedule. First, in FY19, we need to replace all electronic
ticketing printers, which were installed over 5 years ago, with full sized printers. This will allow for integration with our new
Records management system and will allow for the printing of tickets in the field that are easier to read, printing of forms or
“Marsy rights” notifications, etc… Secondly, we are finding that a Mobile Data Computer needs replacement about every 5 years,
and many of our vehicles are rotated at 6 or 7 years, meaning some additional MDC will be needed beyond what is part of a
vehicle rotation. And 3rd, we will be moving to a more portable MDC and docking stations over a 5 year period that makes the
ability for an officer to use the MDC outside of the vehicle, on calls and bringing it into buildings or our station to complete
reports. This direction will also lead to less desktop computers being purchased and increase officer efficiency.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Alternatives are to continue to use existing MDC
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
Less costs for desktop computers, less duplication of maintenance, more efficiency for officers, meaning officers more available for emergency
call response.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
A review of mileage and estimated staffing increases in patrol by 2-3 officers over the next few years has also led to the identified
need for an additional patrol vehicle in FY21. This won’t replace a vehicle and brings the total patrol response vehicles to 23 (1
unmarked / 2 K9 vehicles / 20 fully marked)
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Continue patrol response with existing patrol cars, resulting in higher mileage/annum for each vehicle and difficulty at times to have sufficient
vehicles available for # of officers hired and deployed by FY21+)
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
This is an essential vehicle for safe and reliable emergency response vehicles for patrol use, as well as projected lower annual maintenance costs.

SWIM CENTER UV SYSTEM REPLACEMENT
FY19
$68,500
FY20 Unscheduled
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
A functioning UV system is critical when dealing with the high bather load that the swim center accommodates. The UV system
was installed in 2010. We are in line for a replacement considering the environment the electrical components are exposed to. If
we were able to construct a wall between the humid, corrosive environment and our electronics it is estimated that a UV unit
would last twice that long. Annually we are spending approximately four times the amount in repairs and maintenance compared
to units that are stored separately from an open water source and units that are more advanced since this unit was put it. The
Swim Center currently has such a high bather load that when the UV goes out in the winter months it is difficult and sometimes
impossible to keep our combined chlorine levels within the range outlined by the MT Health Code. It is a safety issue for the
swimmers. Parts for this unit are not readily available. Control panels have a 6 week lead time to be replaced and the electrical
components have to be shipped from Germany.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Do not replace the current system.
ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL
In addition to maintaining air quality, UV systems act as a secondary disinfectant to the chlorine, making the water cleaner and safer for
swimmers. A modern UV unit would be more energy efficient, and it would be easier to obtain parts for since UV systems are now standard
practice for pool sanitization.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Fire Station 2, located at 410 S. 19th Ave, is a 1-story building that was constructed in 1974 to serve as the West end fire station
for the City of Bozeman. Due to growth of the city, this station now primarily serves what is the South side and Central parts of
the city. The station serves as the primary response station for all areas west of N. 7th Ave to the City limits that are South of
Durston Ave. This station is the primary response station for all of MSU campus and Bozeman High School and is the secondary
response to areas in the downtown core. General maintenance and repairs have been the majority of work completed on this
station since it’s opening. The department has continued to deal with a sewage problem on a reoccurring basis where the sewage
backs up into the living area of the station. Multiple plans have been implemented to addressed this but to date the problem still
occurs. Size and location are two factors that impede the service delivery of this station. Based on it’s location in relation to
campus and the downtown core this is the station where the fire department ladder truck should be housed, however the station
is too small to accommodate the ladder truck. In terms of location when station 2 was built N. 19th was a two lane road whereas
today it is a 4 lane major thoroughfare for the city. Leaving from and returning to the fire station can be an extremely difficult task
for fire crews during peak traffic hours. In September 2017 the Fire Master Plan update was presented with the
recommendation to relocate Fire Station 2 somewhere on MSU campus to improve response capabilities. This would require a
partnership with MSU but could have multiple benefits from an emergency planning standpoint. If a plan were to be developed
that relocated Fire Station 2 to MSU campus additional funds and planning should be evaluated for relocating the fire department
training facility to the same site, an additional recommendation from the recent Fire Master Plan.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Fire Station 1, located at 34 N. Rouse Ave, is a 2-story building with an ancillary fire tower attached to the building that was
constructed in 1965 to serve as the downtown fire station for the City of Bozeman as well as the administrative offices for the
Fire Department. The station serves as the primary response station for all areas east of N. 7th Ave to the City limits and is the
secondary response to areas primarily east of 19th Ave included all of MSU campus. Since its opening the station has been a
shared facility between police and fire with the police presences fluctuating over that period of time. Today the station houses
the support services functions of BPD which is comprised of a staff of 5 personnel and 1 Administrative Assistant. The station
also serves as an East annex for patrol officers who need to access a computer, paperwork, or restroom. A remodel was done in
1996 on the main level portions of the building currently used by the Police Department which added some exterior windows and
moved some of the interior walls. An addition to North Side of Fire Station 1 was completed in 2003, adding an additional office,
locker space for firefighter’s personal protective equipment, and a clean room were members could decontaminate themselves
and their equipment after returning from an emergency call. In 2011 a Heating Plan Replacement Assessment was conducted by
CTA Architects & Engineers to assess three different heating plant replacement options. The following is from the executive
summary of the report, the entire report can be found in Appendix A of this report. “The existing heating plant contains the
original steam boiler that currently serves the existing fire station. The boiler’s chemical treatment history has been erratic at
best. Consequently the boiler and steam piping has corroded severely over time and its overall condition can be considered as
poor. The boiler was originally sized to serve the fire station and the adjacent old City Hall building which included an intended
future addition. In 2010 the connection of the steam system to the old city hall was severed as a result of the building being sold.
With the extreme reduction of the steam load the existing steam boiler has experienced severe cycling. The continued short
cycling will inevitably lead to boiler failure”. To date now action has been taken on this study.In 2012 the Bozeman Facilities
Department partnered with Bechtle Architects to conduct a facilities condition inventory, Appendix B. In this report the
