This handout provides additional details for the application requirements outlined in the project checklists. If the requirements of this handout are met with your application it will minimize the delays that can occur when an application is unclear, incomplete or not formatted correctly. These requirements are mandatory. If the application materials do not meet these standards they will require correction, which will delay your project. GENERAL PLAN REQUIREMENTS 1• All plans and drawings must be accurately drawn, using a conventional scale such as 1:20 or 1:1/4, and with only one scale per sheet. Details may contain a separate scale if clearly labeled. 2. All text and annotations should be at a font size to enable it to be easily read - 10 point or more. Many plan sets require that 11" x 17" plan sizes be submitted. The text and annotations on plans that size must be readable when printed at that size.If plans are unreadable at the 11"x 17"size,they will not be accepted for review. 3• Plan sizes must meet minimum and maximum size requirements. No plans outside of the stated sizes will be accepted. 4• Plans/drawings must not contain disclaimers such as "Not to Scale" and "Do Not Scale." (perspectives excepted) and drawings must be drawn true to the stated scale(s). 5. Plans must not contain disclaimers such as "Preliminary" and "Not for Construction." 6• Provide all relevant measured dimensions annotated on the plans/drawings. For example label typical dimensions of parking spaces, drive accesses, drive aisles and sidewalks. 7. Consistent detailing. All existing and proposed site plan elements (e.g., sidewalks, parking spaces, fire lanes, building foot prints, etc.) must be labeled (unless a legend is provided) and dimensioned (unless a detail is provided). 8. The clearest way to present proposals is to group "existing" and "proposed" drawings side by side, using the same scale for both. 9. Each sheet and/or drawing must have a title box with the drawing name, sheet number and date clearly visible in bold. If sheets are updated or revised a new date must be applied to the sheet. For example, the civil utility plans might be labeled: C2.0 Utilities 05-01-2017. This is important as this will also be the digital file name. See naming protocol below. 10. The use of a title sheet for all general information, project team, data, calculations (parking, parkland, open spaces, and table of contents is required. The title must appear in bold letters across the top of the cover sheet. If the site plan includes a conditional use include the words "and Conditional Use." 11. If the project is part of an existing development the name of the existing development must appear in the title. For example, "Arbys at Bozeman Gateway" or "Building K at the Cannery District." 12. The vicinity map with zoning must be on the cover page. 13. A table of contents or plan schedule for all sheets in the plan set must be included on the title sheet with a date for each sheet. If revisions are required, the title sheet must be updated to reflect all revised sheets with a new date. 14. Fully annotated plans and drawings are more understandable, e.g. if a line is shown on the plan between two properties or other conditions such as easements,it must be annotated by adding descriptors to clarify the site condition. Plans and Specifications PLS Page 1 of 4 T Revision Date 5-1-17 Required Forms: Applies to all applications I Other Forms: I None. 15. A legend for all line types and symbols must be included on plan sets. 16. The plan sheets must not be overly congested with line types. When in doubt produce an extra sheet that separates the information. For example, produce a separate utility and easement sheet for utilities to clarify that information if the overall site plan contains too many lines and line types. 17. In general, the plan sheets are where most project information must be included. Separate cut sheets, exhibits, and summary tables on 8 1/2" by 11" will not be accepted. The only exception is for project narratives,property owners'association documents,SID documents, easements, agreements,maintenance plans,water rights information,payback district information,contracts,deeds,weed plans,and standalone technical reports such as traffic studies, wetland reports, sewer and water reports, environmental, etc. PARKLAND TRACKING REQUIREMENTS 1.

Policy 12: When possible, the use of Part 46 annexations is preferred. Yes. This annexation is being processed under Part 46 provisions. Page 5 of 6 Section 76-2-304, MCA (Zoning) Criteria A. Be in accordance with a growth policy. Yes. The future land use map in the Bozeman Community Plan (growth policy) designates the subject property as Parks, Open Space, and Recreation. As Table C-16 from the growth policy shows,the PLI district is a proper implementing district for the future land use designation of"Residential." The growth policy encourages annexation of wholly surrounded parcels. No conflicts with the growth policy have been identified. B. Secure safety from fire and other dangers. Yes. Upon annexation the subject property will be provided with City emergency services including police, fire and ambulance. The initial zoning of PLI will not alter the use of the property and is therefore unlikely to adversely impact safety from fire and other dangers. The property will be required to conform to all City of Bozeman public safety, building and land use requirements. The City already provides services to all of the surrounding area. C. Promote public health, public safety, and general welfare. Yes. The proposed zoning designation will promote general welfare by implementing the future land use map in the Bozeman Community Plan. Closing a gap in the City boundary will facilitate and simplify emergency services. The City uses the site for utility services. Annexation and designation as PLI will support good municipal services. D. Facilitate the provision of transportation,water, sewerage, schools, parks and other public requirements. Yes. The designation as PLI will support the continued operation of the City's utility and street services. Any future development of the property will be evaluated for additional required improvements during the plan review process. E. Reasonable provision of adequate light and air. Yes. The PLI zoning designation has requirements for setbacks, height, and lot coverage, which provide for the reasonable provision of adequate light and air. Any future development of the property will be required to conform to City standards for setbacks, height, lot coverage, and buffering. F. The effect on motorized and non-motorized transportation systems. Neutral. The proposed PLI zoning designation will have a neutral effect on the City's motorized and non-motorized transportation systems. The property is occupied by a City service area. The site is accessed by N. Rouse Avenue and no further right of way is expected to be needed. As a result, the impact to the motorized and non-motorized transportation systems is not anticipated to change. Page 6 of 6 G. Promotion of compatible urban growth. Yes. The proposed PLI zoning designation promotes compatible urban growth as the property is bordered by the City on all sides which is already designated as PLI. Additionally, the proposed PLI zoning designation is in accordance with the Bozeman Community Plan's future land use designation of"Parks, Open Space and Recreation". The annexation associated with this zone map amendment is closing a small gap within the City. H. Character of the district. Yes. The proposed PLI zoning does promote the character of the district as the intent of the Public Lands and Institutions district is to "The intent of the PLI public lands and institutions district is to provide for major public and quasi-public uses outside of other districts. Not all public and quasi-public uses need to be classified PLI. Some may fit within another district; however, larger areas will be designated PLI." Surrounding properties are PLI or M-l. The proposed PLI zoning designation is consistent with the character of the neighborhood as well as existing development on the property. The site is presently zoned as PLI in the Gallatin County Bozeman Area zoning. I. Peculiar suitability for particular uses. Yes. The property is located in an area which is suitable for uses allowed in the PLI zoning district. The proposed PLI zoning designation is suitable for the current use of the property. The site is presently zoned as PLI in the Gallatin County Bozeman Area zoning. J. Conserving the value of buildings. Neutral. There are no existing structures on the site to be rezoned. The proposed district is the same as the immediately adjacent zoned property. The site is presently zoned as PLI in the Gallatin County Bozeman Area zoning. K. Encourage the most appropriate use of land throughout the jurisdictional area. Yes. The proposed PLI zoning designation will encourage the most appropriate use of land as the property is presently zoned as PLI in the Gallatin County Bozeman Area zoning. The change in the zoning is simply a change in jurisdiction authority from Gallatin County to City of Bozeman.

Rouse Avenue Annexation State Law References 7-2-4610 and 7-2-4732, MCA A. Introduction Whereas, the City of Bozeman hereby recognizes that Montana State law has established municipal governments for the purpose of providing local government municipal services essential for sound urban development of communities as well as for the protection of health, safety and welfare in areas either already being intensively used or undergoing development for residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and governmental purposes. "Historically, the purpose of Montana's annexation statutes have been simply to provide expanding communities with: 1. a united and effective single form of government; 2. orderly growth through uniform regulations such as building codes,planning, and zoning standards; and 3. an equal sharing of community resources and financial responsibility for those resources by people living in an area united by social,political, and economic interests. (From Montana's Annexation Laws: An Evaluation,November 1980, Montana Legislative Council)." B. Long Range Plan As required by MCA 7-2-4732,this plan anticipates development for a period of at least five years into the future. The 2010 Census lists the City of Bozeman's population at 37,280. The US Census population projection for 2014 is 41, 660. Bozeman has experienced an average annual population growth of 2.5 percent over the past 40 years, with some years exceeding five percent growth. Indications are that the growth of the City will continue at least at its historical average. If so, it is projected that the City could reach a population of 48,312 by 2020. The City of Bozeman conducts long range facility and land use planning to consider areas of future growth and what expansions to services are needed to support them. Studies such as those noted below if available should be consulted when reviewing proposed annexations. A suite of projects is considered for near term construction in the next five years through the City's Capital Improvement Program. This document is updated and adopted annually by the City Commission and draws heavily from the adopted long range plans. The area proposed for annexation with the 2018 N. Rouse Avenue Annexation is within the planning area for the City's growth policy and facility plans. Use of the site is for a municipal storage yard. The site has been developed as a municipal storage yard for many years. The property was initially acquired by the City in 1892. The use of the site has minimal needs for additional services as a result of annexation. A unique element of this annexation is that the area to be annexed is a portion of an tract owned by the City of Bozeman. The City also owns the property adjacent to the unannexed area. The City originally acquired the property in 1892The majority of that tract was annexed in August 1976 as part of the larger NorthEast Annexation. No explanation for why this portion was not annexed originally has been found. 1. Sewer- The City's sewage treatment facility was recently upgraded and expanded. Capacity exists to serve additional demand. The Bozeman Wastewater Facilities Plan was completed in 2015. It provides a description of existing and proposed facilities, population projections, and identifies both area where service can be provided and what facilities are necessary to provide service. The projected service population of the plan is 92,500 persons. 2. Water- The City's primary water treatment facility was recently upgraded and expanded. Capacity exists to serve additional demand. The Bozeman Water Facilities Plan was completed in 2017. It provides a description of existing and proposed facilities,population projections, and identifies both area where service can be provided and what facilities are necessary to provide service. The projected service population of the plan is 92,500 persons. 3. Roads—Future road extensions shall be designed to accommodate projected demand. The long range transportation plan has established an existing and future arterial and collector street network. The City relies upon this network in coordination with Montana Department of Transportation to deliver travel services. The long range transportation plan was updated in 2017. 4. Service Providers—Other municipal services are provided as shared municipal facilities supported by the community as a whole. The City does not restrict private competition within its boundaries for services such as recycling and solid waste collection. 5. Growth Policy—The City of Bozeman adopts a growth policy in order to correlate facility plans with future land use needs. The future land use map identifies those areas where expansion of the City in the planning horizon of 20 years is anticipated. The proposed use of the property matches the designated future land use map. C. Areas Considered for Annexation Currently there are numerous areas adjacent to and lying on the perimeter of the City of Bozeman that are natural extensions of the City but which are not presently located within the corporate boundaries of the City. See Figure 3-1 of the growth policy for a map of these areas. Some of these areas are already extensively developed and are deriving benefits from the City of Bozeman without paying their just and equal share for these municipal services. Other areas are not extensively developed,but given the current growth trends in the Bozeman area will be attractive for development in the future. It is the policy of the City of Bozeman that properties outside of the City shall not be connected the City's water and sewer system without annexation. The City of Bozeman will attempt to timely consider any property owner petition requesting annexation of land that is contiguous with the City and eligible for annexation in accordance with State statutes. Furthermore, the City of Bozeman plans to consider annexation of new subdivision developments in a timely manner whenever a developer submits a development proposal to the City for annexation. Figure 3-1 of the growth policy identifies those areas anticipated to be annexed over the horizon of the plan. The 2018 N. Rouse Avenue Annexation is within that expected expansion area. As a small (1.044 acre) wholly surrounded parcel, the area has been enclosed within the City since 2008. Annexation of such inholdings is a recommendation of the growth policy. D. Petition(s) for Annexation The property owner submitted an appropriate petition for the City to annex into the City pursuant to MCA Title 7, Chapter 2, Part 46. The standard City application form was used. The petitioner also provided the City with the additional materials required with the annexation submittal checklist. E. Municipal Services to Annexed Land 1. It is the plan of the City of Bozeman that municipal services will be available to property that is annexed within a reasonable time (generally not to exceed five years) on substantially the same basis and in the same manner as such services are available to the rest of the municipality. General governmental services will be available immediately upon annexation. Water service is already available. Sewer services are not required for the existing use and will be made available when extended to the surrounding area. 2. The property owner located in a newly annexed area will be required to comply with all City, State, and Federal laws, statutes, regulations, ordinances, and resolutions, including but not limited to, zoning, building codes, fire prevention ordinance and fire codes, fireworks ordinances, dog license ordinance, business license ordinance, and all other laws, statutes, regulations, ordinances, and resolutions. F. General Policies for Providing Services to Annexed Property 1. The City plans to generally provide municipal services of police, fire, street maintenance, parks and recreation and all general administrative services of the City of Bozeman to annexed property immediately upon annexation. The financial cost of extending such services shall generally be shared by the entire municipality through municipal revenues allocated and expended pursuant to the City's annual budget adopted each fiscal year. No new Citywide bond issue is planned for the sole purpose of financing provision of municipal services to annexed areas. Parcels annexed into the City will be required to enter into the Citywide Street Maintenance District and may be required to enter into an existing or future street lighting district, or other such district established. Parcels annexed into the City which are benefitted by previous specific facilities shall contribute proportionately to the cost of constructing and maintaining those facilities. 2. The developer(s) or property owner(s) of annexed property will be required to construct all infrastructure improvements, including but not limited to: water lines, sewer lines, fire hydrants, reservoirs,pump stations, lift stations, culverts, drainage systems, roadways, sidewalks, street lighting, traffic control devices, street name signs, and such other improvements as may be required by the City, at the developer's or property owner's expense. The infrastructure improvements will be constructed in accordance with the City of Bozeman Subdivision Regulations, City of Bozeman Specifications, and the most recent edition of the Montana Public Works Standard Specifications. The infrastructure improvements shall be in compliance with applicable codes and standards and be of adequate size and design to accommodate the needs of the proposed development. All proposed infrastructure shall be reviewed and approved by the City Public Works Director, and as-built drawings as required by the City Public Works Director shall be submitted to the City prior to final acceptance of the infrastructure. 3. The developer(s) or property owner(s) shall be responsible for providing fire protection appurtenances and required water flow pressures and volume, at the developer's or property owner's expense, as required by the applicable Fire Code enforced by the City and reviewed and approved by the City Fire Chief, based on the use of land and the type of construction employed. 4. Sewer systems shall be designed in such a manner as to avoid the requirement for lift stations if feasible. 5. Properties proposed for development in areas which do not have immediate access to City water and/or sewer, but where services are in close proximity may be required to install dry sewer lines in anticipation of the extension of City water and sewer into the area within a reasonable time, generally not to exceed five years. Once adequate water and sewer facilities are within 200 feet of the site, or if a new subdivision lot is within 500 feet of City water and sewer, connection may be required at the property owner's or developer's expense. 6. As new City streets are constructed, and as existing streets are improved, storm drainage infrastructure shall be installed or improved to City, State Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. It is the responsibility of the developer(s) or property owner(s)to convey storm water from their property to an appropriate point of disposal as approved by the City Engineer. If there is no storm sewer conveyance system available to the site, storm water generated as a result of the development shall be retained on site in accordance with applicable DEQ and EPA regulations. Generally, the quantity and rate of runoff from a developed parcel cannot exceed that which would occur had the property remained undeveloped. 7. The developer(s) or property owner(s) shall provide all necessary right-of-way and/or easements, or additional right-of-way or easements if less than adequate right-of-way or easements exist in property proposed for annexation. Adequate right of way exists to access the annexed parcel. If Sourdough Road is expanded additional right of way will be provided. 8. In areas served by the City water system, the City may require the developer(s) or property owner(s)to properly abandon existing wells in accordance with DEQ regulations by qualified personnel. Furthermore,the City may require existing water rights to be transferred to the City. G. Policies for Providing Services in Existing Developed Areas 1. As a general policy, property that is proposed for annexation that has existing infrastructure shall be required to upgrade the infrastructure to City standards as a condition of annexation. The existing development of the site does not require upgrade to existing municipal service to the property. H. Off-Site Infrastructure Requirements 1. In the event that annexation creates impacts requiring off-site infrastructure improvements, the developer(s) or property owner(s) of the property proposed for annexation will be responsible for bearing the costs of such improvements, unless otherwise determined by the City Commission. 2. The City may require reimbursement from a developer(s) or property owner(s) for City financed infrastructure that was installed in anticipation of future development on property that is proposed for annexation. 3. It shall be the responsibility of the developer(s) or property owner(s) to extend all roadways and utilities from the existing City facilities to the site of development in accordance with all City standards and specifications, including the provision for appropriate easements. It shall further be the responsibility of the developer(s) or property owner(s)to construct all streets and utilities to the furthest boundary of the property to be developed or annexed when it is deemed appropriate by the City Commission or City Engineer in order to facilitate future development. I. Special Improvement Districts The City Commission, in its discretion, may approve the formation of a Special Improvement District to pay for the installation, construction and upgrading of infrastructure improvements. The boundaries of the Special Improvement District shall by the area benefiting from the improvements in accordance with the laws of the State of Montana. J. Payback Agreement If a developer(s) or property owner(s) of property annexed pays the entire cost of infrastructure improvements, and such improvements will benefit other property that may be developed or annexed in the future,the City Commission may, in its discretion, authorize a Payback Agreement. The Payback Agreement may provide that developer(s) or property owner(s)that connect to the infrastructure improvements in the future shall reimburse the developer(s) or property owner(s)that initially paid for the improvement a portion of the cost of the improvement. The Payback Agreement shall include a method of calculating the amount of reimbursement. The method of reimbursement may be based upon lot size, front footage, or other means that the City Commission deems reasonable. The payback period shall not exceed 10 years from the date of completion of construction or installation of the improvement. The Payback Agreement shall set forth the specific area that may benefit from the improvement and that will be subject to the Payback Agreement. The costs that may be reimbursed under a Payback Agreement may include engineering, design and inspection fees. Any and all terms and conditions of a Payback Agreement are subject to approval by the City Commission. K. Transition Plan If a county, special district, or improvement district currently provides services to the area to be annexed,the plan must provide specific steps for the orderly transfer of those services, including police protection, fire protection, garbage collection, street and street maintenance services, and utility services. The plan for the transfer of services must be developed in consultation with the governing body of the county and with any other departments of the county, special districts, or improvement districts that have been providing services to the area proposed to be annexed. Gallatin County was notified of the proposed annexation on May 16, 2018. No special district or improvement district services are provided. Upon approval of the annexation the 911 system will be informed of the change in primary jurisdiction and the 911 system database will be updated. The resolution of annexation will have an effective date of which is adequate to allow 911 to make the adjustment in dispatch priority. No comments on the annexation have been received from Gallatin County.
