Technical Location The property in question is located on lots 5/6 Mt Baldy Subdivision SW1/4SE1 –S1/2SW1/4 in Gallatin County. It encompasses a total area of 32,300 square feet or .74 of an acre in size. Property Description Detail The property is a 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath private residence with a connected 2 car garage. The square footage for the residence is 1690 square feet total. The structure sits in the southern third of the property at an approximate 10 degree angle to the southern property line on Bridger Drive. There is a single driveway on the southeastern side of the residence. There are no outbuildings other than a small metal shed 10 foot square and sitting 28 feet to the northwest of the main structure. There are several trees, including pine, weeping birch and cottonwood scattered on the property. The property line on both the east and west side contain various shrubs and bushes that serve as a wind break/privacy barrier. Records indicate that the house was built in 1957. Present Services Water – The house is presently serviced by a 25 psi red jacket well pump connected to the well head on the northwest of the structure. The entire system is under the house and is serviced through a four foot crawlspace which include a pressure tank at the same location. There is no external well head. This system serves both the internal and external residential needs of the house, including external irrigation. The well is 75 feet in depth, and the water has been professionally tested with no hazardous elements discovered. Sewer- The septic system consists of a 1500 gallon metal septic tank connected to a 40 foot single drain field line. The system was installed when the house was built, and was apparently repaired/upgraded in the 1980’s. Improvements included replacing lines with PVC materials and installing a cleanout line 10’ north of the septic tank north wall. Future Objective Once approval is obtained from the City of Bozeman, a qualified contactor will be retained to disconnect the sewer system from the house and install a drain line 257’ to tie into the city sewer system in the north alley corridor (alley behind the house). Also to disconnect the well-based internal residential water service system and replace with the city water system in the same alley corridor described above, allowing the well-based system to provide irrigation for the property. Research and discussion with a contractor indicate the residence is well within the required distance to afford this procedure for both city water and sewer services. ZONE MAP AMENDMENT REQUIREMENTS QUESTION A Is the new zoning designed in accordance with the growth policy? How? Yes. The residence is a single family structure which has been in existence since 1957 in the Mt Baldy Addition. No other new structures will be added to the property which will impact the growth of the area. The addition of sewer/water services is in accordance with the present growth policy. It is presently zoned R-S (suburban residential) and is consistent with the Bozeman Community Plan. It is a residential property which is consistent with the surrounding properties. An R-1 re -designation for this property is requested. QUESTION B Will the new zoning secure safety from fire and other dangers? How? Yes. The provisions established in the zoning designations have provisions for adequate transportation facilities, designated water and fire service lines and adequate emergency exits and escapes, which will address safety concerns with any further development of the property. Any new structures and development on the property would be required to meet the minimum zoning requirements for setback, lot coverage, height limitations and lot sizes to ensure the health, safety and general welfare of the surrounding community. Per Chapter18.02 of the UDC, the City of Bozeman has the authority and power to ask for more than the minimum standards if it ensures the best service to the public interest. QUESTION C Will the new zoning promote public health, public safety and general welfare? How? Yes. The property is an established residence served by an aging septic system. Attachment to the city system through annexation would offset the possibility of a failure of the present wastewater system, thereby promoting public health, public safety and general welfare. Water services and fire protection will be available which will ensure sufficient firefighting capacity. The professional firefighting services of the City will be able to provide a faster response to emergency needs that the current volunteer coverage. The regulatory provisions established through the City’s municipal code under Title 18, Unified Development Ordinance, BMC, and will adequately address the issues of health and general welfare. A 12-inch water main and 8-inch sewer main are immediately available from the Legends Development north of the property in a service alley. The proposed change will promote health and general welfare by complying with the Unified Development Code (UDC) QUESTION D Will the new zoning facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewerage, schools, parks and other public requirements? How? Yes. Services currently exist or can be provided as needed to the area being annexed and rezoned. Taxes and fees will be paid according to the standards established by ordinance for all users within the city. Currently water and sewer mains are available to the property, and will be available for connections following annexation approval. Emergency services are currently serving this are, and municipal police and fire are within adequate response time of the site. The proposed zoning is consistent with the Bozeman Community Plan and will not create any more traffic than has been anticipated. The property is located close to the City of Bozeman Fire and Police Departments and within the service area of American Medical Response ambulance services. The proposed R-1 zoning is consistent with adjacent zoning designations and development in compliance with the UDC will secure safety from fires, panic, and other dangers. QUESTION E Will the new zoning provide reasonable provision of adequate light and air? How? Neutral. Compliance with the UDO will assure the provision of adequate light and air in the described property. QUESTION F Will the new zoning have an effect of motorized and non-motorized transportation systems? How? Neutral. The new zoning will have no effect of both motorized and non-motorized transportation systems. QUESTION G Does the new zoning promote compatible urban growth? How? Neutral. This is long term established property in a suburban area (R-S zoning) Question H Does the new zoning promote the character of the district? How? The proposed R-1 zoning seamlessly fits in with the present residential character of the properties that surround it. This property is identified as Residential on the 2020 Plan. QUESTION I Does the new zoning address affect the area’s peculiar suitability for particular uses? How? The new zoning will not affect the areas’ peculiar suitability for particular uses QUESTION K Does the new zoning encourage the most appropriate use of land throughout the jurisdictional area? Yes. The proposed zoning is consistent with the 2020 plan which determined that the described property is suitable for medium density, residential use. 2. The property is presently zoned RS. I am requesting a re-zoning to (R-1). Please refer to the attached county zoning designation map located behind this page. Questions 3-9 from Annexation checklist 3. If the property is currently in agricultural use please identify current crops/conditions -the property is not currently in agricultural but residential use 4. Number of residential units existing on the property? - one 5. Number and type of commercial structures on the property? -none 6. Estimate of existing population of the property? -two 7. Assessed value of the property? -$237,700 8. Existing on site facilities and utilities (gas, power, telephone, cable, septic systems, wells, Etc) -the property is served by a natural gas pipeline, a cable line , power is supplied by a line coming from the power service above ground north of the property, there is a single line septic system, and water service is provided by a 100’ deep well with an above ground well pump under the house. 9. Any additional information that would be helpful in the city’s review of the application -The septic system of my home while functioning, is over 50 years old and is in need of replacement. While I would prefer to simply replace the system with a new one, that is not possible because of the barriers created by how close the city services are in proximity to the house. I am certain that this issue will not be uncommon to the Mt Baldy Subdivision in the future as other homes find the need to replace their sewer systems and are unable to due to legal constraints.
