The Bozeman Historic Preservation Advisory Board was created under Chapter 2, Article 5, and

processes. The historic preservation program includes identification, evaluation, and protection of
historic resources within the city (Ordinance No. 1180, Section 2, 1985).
The Bozeman Historic Preservation Advisory Board shall serve in an advisory capacity to the City
Commission, Planning Board, Zoning Commission, and other staff members or boards seeking
advice on historic preservation issues (Ordinance No. 1454, Section 2, 1998; Ordinance No. 1180,
Section 3, 1985).
Members are appointed to staggered two-year terms comprised of up to seven members
per Ordinance 1927 via any combination of the following:

Standards in the disciplines of history, planning, archaeology, architecture, architectural
history, historic archaeology, or other historic preservation-related disciplines such as

structural renovations of Lake Lodge, Roosevelt Lodge, Lake Hotel, and Mammoth Hotel. These projects
