EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Unresolved Issues
None identified at this time.
Project Summary
The Trust for Public Land (landowner) and HRDC (applicant), request rezoning of an
existing lot totaling 8.025 acres and the accompanying adjacent right-of way from B-1
(Neighborhood Business), R-2 (Residential Single Household, Low Density), and R-4
(Residential High Density) to R-3 (Medium Density Residential District).
The subject property is currently undeveloped with no buildings or structures on-site. The
property is surrounded by land zoned residential and commercial. The ZMA is accompanied
by a required Growth Policy Amendment (GPA) to adjust the underlying future land use
map, Figure 3-1 designation from Residential (3.46 acres) and Community Commercial
Mixed Use (4.56 acres) to Residential Emphasis Mixed Use.
The site is adjacent to the Story Mill Community Park to the west and is part of the larger
vision of the area’s redevelopment in conjunction with the park. The intention of the land use
designation change is to allow the development of a mixed-income residential neighborhood
on property owned by a community land trust. This would provide affordable housing
options on a portion of the site and serve to reestablish a residential neighborhood after a
trailer park was removed in 2008. The application proposes a designation of “Residential
Emphasis Mixed Use” (REMU) on the entire property and half (1.35 acres) of the adjacent
Bridger Drive right-of-way.
There is a GPA application submitted concurrently that proposes to change the future land
use map in the Bozeman Community Plan from Community Commercial Mixed-Use and
Residential to Residential Emphasis Mixed Use.
Planning Board Summary
The Bozeman Planning Board held a public hearing on the associated Growth Policy
Amendment on Tuesday, June 18, 2019. No public comment was heard. The Planning
Board voted unanimously to recommend that the City Commission modify the Future
Land Use map to accommodate the proposed zoning classification.

SECTION 2 - RECOMMENDED CONTINGENCIES OF ZONE MAP
AMENDMENT
Please note that these contingencies are necessary for the City to complete the process of the
proposed amendment.
Recommended Contingencies of Approval:
1. The Ordinance for the Zone Map Amendment must not be approved until the Bridger View
Redevelopment Growth Policy Amendment is executed. If the Bridger View
Redevelopment Growth Policy Amendment is not approved, the Zone Map Amendment
application is null and void.
2. That all documents and exhibits necessary to establish an initial municipal zoning
designation shall be identified as the “Bridger View Redevelopment Zone Map
Amendment.” All required documents must be returned to the City within 60 days of the
City Commission action to annex the property or the preliminary approval shall be null and
void.
3. The applicant must submit a zone amendment map, titled “Bridger View Redevelopment
Zone Map Amendment”, on a 24” by 36” mylar, 8 ½” by 11”, or 8 ½” by 14” paper exhibit,
and a digital copy of the area to be zoned, acceptable to the Director of Public Works,
which will be utilized in the preparation of the Ordinance to officially amend the City of
Bozeman Zoning Map. The map must contain a metes and bounds legal description of the
perimeter of the subject properties, zoning district, and total acreage of the property.
4. The Ordinance for the Zone Map Amendment shall not be drafted until the applicant
provides an editable metes and bounds legal description prepared by a licensed Montana
surveyor.
SECTION 3 - RECOMMENDATION AND FUTURE ACTIONS
Having considered the criteria established for a zone map amendment, the Staff recommends
approval as submitted. The Development Review Committee (DRC) considered the
amendment on April 3, 2019. The DRC did not identify any infrastructure or regulatory
constraints that would impede the approval of the application.
The Zoning Commission will hold a public hearing on this zone map amendment on July 2,
2019 and will forward its recommendation to the City Commission on the zone map
amendment. The hearing will be held at 121 N. Rouse Avenue, Bozeman. The meeting will
begin at 6 p.m.

2019. The hearing will be held at 121 N. Rouse Avenue, Bozeman. The meeting will begin at
6 p.m.
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 8 of 21
SECTION 4 - ZONE MAP AMENDMENT STAFF ANALYSIS AND
FINDINGS
In considering applications for approval under this title, the advisory boards and City
Commission shall consider the following criteria (letters A-K). As an amendment is a
legislative action, the Commission has broad latitude to determine a policy direction. The
burden of proof that the application should be approved lies with the applicant.
In considering the criteria the analysis must show that the amendment accomplishes criteria
A-D. Criteria E-K must be considered and may be found to be affirmative, neutral, or
negative. A favorable decision on the proposed application must find that the application
meets all of criteria A-D and that the positive outcomes of the amendment outweigh negative
outcomes for criteria E-K.
Section 76-2-304, MCA (Zoning) Criteria
A. Be in accordance with a growth policy.
Yes, pending the approval of the concurrent GPA. An application to amend the Community
Plan Future Land Use Map has been submitted concurrently with the ZMA Application. The
property currently has two different land use designations - the east portion (4.56 acres) is
designated “Community Commercial Mixed Use” and the west portion (approximately 3.46
acres) is designated “Residential.” The Growth Policy Amendment application proposes a
designation of “Residential Emphasis Mixed Use” on the entire property. Table C-16:
“Zoning Correlation with Land Use Categories” in Appendix C of the Community Plan (and
shown below) allows R-3 (Residential Medium Density) District to be the smallest scale
zoning district that can implement this land use designation.
Additionally, the proposed zone map amendment advances multiple objectives of the growth
policy:
Land Use Objective 1.4: “Provide for and support infill development and redevelopment
which provides additional density of use while respecting the context of the existing
development which surrounds it. Respect for context does not automatically prohibit
difference in scale or design.”
Land Use Objective 4.3: “Encourage the creation of well-defined residential
neighborhoods. Each neighborhood should have a clear focal point, such as a park,
school, other open space or community facility, and shall be designed to promote
pedestrian convenience.”
Community Quality Objective 1.3: “Support compatible infill within the existing area of
the City rather than developing land requiring expansion of the City’s area.”
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 9 of 21
Housing Objective 1.1 “Encourage and support the creation of a broad range of housing
types in proximity to services and transportation options.”
Housing Objective 1.3 “Promote the provision of a wide variety of housing types in a
range of costs to meet the diverse residential needs of Bozeman residents.”
No conflicts with the Growth Policy have been identified.
B. Secure safety from fire and other dangers.
Yes. The subject property is currently served by City of Bozeman Fire and Police
Departments. Future development of the property will be required to conform to all City of
Bozeman public safety, building and land use requirements, which will ensure this criterion
is met. The change to R-3 is not likely to adversely impact safety from fire and other
dangers.
C. Promote public health, public safety, and general welfare.
Yes. Future development of the site will require site plan review and compliance with the
City’s Unified Development Code which ensures the promotion of public health, safety and
general welfare. The proposed amendment will not put undue burden on municipal services,
emergency response capability, or similar existing requirements. Placing a residential
neighborhood adjacent to Story Mill Community Park will promote health, safety, and
general welfare of residents.
D. Facilitate the provision of transportation, water, sewerage, schools, parks and other
public requirements.
Yes. The subject property is currently served by City water and sewer services in the right-
of-way of Bridger Drive. Any development of the property will be required to meet city
standards in regards to water, sewer, or transportation system upgrades or restrictions
resulting from proposed future development. These would be addressed as a part of the
development review process.
Any proposed development would be serviced by the existing school system and the
proposed change in zoning to R-3 does not increase the intensity of use and is not anticipated
to overburden the school district. The owner (The Trust for Public Land) is concurrently
developing the adjacent land into the Story Mill Community Park which will provide
recreational opportunities to serve future residents on the subject property, as well as the
larger community.
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 10 of 21
E. Reasonable provision of adequate light and air.
Yes. Bozeman’s Unified Development Code includes requirements for providing adequate
light and air including maximum building height, lot coverage, and setback requirements.
Future redevelopment of the property will be subject to these provisions. The subject
property is adjacent to Story Mill Community Park and the Spur Trail to the east and a multi-
use trail to the north.
F. The effect on motorized and non-motorized transportation systems.
Neutral. Potential future development within a zoning district of R-3 will likely affect the
City’s motorized and non-motorized transportation system with increased traffic. Future
development may require a Traffic Impact Study to identify the extent of increased traffic
volumes and specify required infrastructure improvements to serve the development. For
non-motorized transportation systems, future residential development on the property will
benefit from Story Mill Community Park which includes extensive public trails, the Story
Mill Spur Trail which connects to the Northeast Neighborhood, the trail in the open space to
the east which heads north to the East Gallatin Recreation Area, and the Main Street to the M
route along Bridger Drive. This will have a positive effect on the neighborhood and any
proposed future development.
G. Promotion of compatible urban growth.
Yes. The Growth Policy supports residential development near parkland. Additionally, the
proposed R-3 zoning is compatible with the types of developments and densities in the
surrounding area, as an appropriate transition from Downtown through the Northeast
Neighborhood and industrial areas to the larger lot single-family subdivisions up Bridger
Drive. The properties are bordered by existing residential and neighborhood business
designations making the proposed amendment compatible with surrounding zoning uses and
intents.
H. Character of the district.
Yes. The proposed amendment to R-3 would allow for residential uses on the site which
provide a similar character to existing land uses surrounding the property. The newly
developed Story Mill Community Park has changed the character of the district and the
addition of an adjacent residential neighborhood is compatible and appropriate to this area.
The proposed zone map amendment would not significantly alter the character of the district.
I. Peculiar suitability for particular uses.
Yes. A wide variety of zoning designations surrounding the properties including R-1, R-2, R-
4, B-1, B-2, M-1 (City and County designation), and undeveloped County A-S zoning (one
dwelling per 20-acres). A change to R-3 would be compatible with adjacent zoning and
provide for further development of compatible residential land uses which is suitable for the
area as that is the current surrounding development pattern. Previously the Bridger View
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 11 of 21
Trailer Park was hosted on the subject property, and the intent of the applicant is to provide
for mixed-income housing which would be suitable for the area and benefit the community as
whole.
J. Conserving the value of buildings.
Yes. There are no existing buildings on the site currently, therefore the proposed zoning
amendment would not affect any on-site building values. The proposed R-3 zoning district
would allow for additional residential development in the area, which is compatible with
existing land uses, and is not anticipated to negatively impact nearby building values.
K. Encourage the most appropriate use of land throughout the jurisdictional area.
Yes. The proposed R-3 zoning will encourage a variety of housing types to serve the diverse
needs of the community, helping address affordability challenges. The R-3 zone is an
appropriate use of land throughout the jurisdictional area because it will complement the
park, be compatible to surrounding existing neighborhoods, and will support future
development on commercially zoned land to the south and southeast.
Spot Zoning Criteria
Rezoning may, in certain factual circumstances, constitute impermissible “spot zoning.” The
issue of whether a rezoning constitutes spot zoning was discussed by the Montana Supreme
Court in Plains Grains LP v. Board of County Comm’rs of Cascade County and Little v. Bd. Of
County Comm’rs, in which the Court determined that the presence of the following three
conditions generally will indicate that a given situation constitutes spot zoning, regardless of
variations in factual scenarios.
1. Is the proposed use significantly different from the prevailing land uses in the area?
No. The subject property is surrounded by residential and light commercial and
industrial uses. The proposed zoning would allow residential uses that are similar to
adjacent residential development patterns. As a result, the proposed R-3 zoning
designation would not result in primary uses of the site which are significantly
different from prevailing land uses in the area.
2. Is the area requested for the rezone rather small in terms of the number of separate
landowners benefited from the proposed change?
Neutral. The proposed R-3 zoning designation is being requested by one landowner
and would apply to one lot totaling 8.025 acres. The proposed R-3 zoning designation
may invigorate development on the site which would benefit property values for
residential properties and nearby commercial properties.
3. Would the change be in the nature of “special legislation” designed to benefit only one
or a few landowners at the expense of the surrounding landowners or the general
public?
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 12 of 21
No. No substantial negative impacts to the surrounding landowners or the general
public have been identified due to this amendment. As discussed in the various
review criteria above, the proposed R-3 zoning designation will allow for additional
residential development in an appropriate area, and will help meet the projected
demand for this use.
PROTEST NOTICE FOR ZONING AMENDMENTS
IN THE CASE OF WRITTEN PROTEST AGAINST SUCH CHANGES SIGNED BY THE
OWNERS OF 25% OR MORE OF THE AREA OF THE LOTS WITHIN THE AMENDMENT

signatures. A person may in writing withdraw a previously filed protest at any time prior to
final action by the City Commission. Protests must be delivered to the Bozeman City
Clerk, 121 North Rouse Ave., PO Box 1230, Bozeman, MT 59771-1230.
APPENDIX A - DETAILED PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND
BACKGROUND
A zone map amendment requesting amendment of the City Zoning Map for an existing
lot consisting of approximately 8.025 acres and the accompanying adjacent right-of way
from B-1 (Neighborhood Business), R-2 (Residential Single Household, Low Density),
and R-4 (Residential High Density) to R-3 (Medium Density Residential District).
The proposal is part of a larger vision of redevelopment for the area which includes Story
Mill Community Park. A portion of the subject property formerly housed a trailer park that
was removed for a larger housing and commercial development proposal that failed to move
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 13 of 21
forward. The Trust for Public Land acquired the property as part of the larger Story Mill
Community Park purchase to explore the option of returning some affordable homes on a
portion of the site. If the GPA and proposed ZMA are approved, the applicant intends to
submit a Preliminary Planned Unit Development (PUD) that would include a mixed-income
residential development and possibly some light complementary commercial uses.
The concurrent Growth Policy Amendment (GPA) application that proposes a future land use
designation of REMU has also been submitted by the applicant. The addition of a residential
neighborhood in this area is compatible with adjacent uses and would serve to activate the
edge of Story Mill Community Park, while providing the opportunity for residents to live
near a great community resource and enhance livability.
APPENDIX B - NOTICING AND PUBLIC COMMENT
Notice was sent via US first class mail to all owners of property located inside the site and
within 200 feet of the perimeter of the site. The project site was posted with a copy of the
notice. The notice was published in the Legal Ads section of the Bozeman Daily Chronicle
on May 26 and June 2, 2019. The Zoning Commission is scheduled for July 2, 2019 and the
City Commission public hearing is scheduled for July 15, 2019.
There have been no comments as of the date this report was written.
APPENDIX C - PROJECT GROWTH POLICY AND PROPOSED ZONING
Adopted Growth Policy Designation:
The property is designated as residential and community commercial mixed use in the
Bozeman Community Plan future land use map – see descriptions below.
“Residential.” The growth policy states, “This category designates places where the
primary activity is urban density dwellings. Other uses which complement residences are
also acceptable such as parks, low intensity home based occupations, fire stations, churches,
and schools. High density residential areas should be established in close proximity to
commercial centers to facilitate the provision of services and employment opportunities to
persons without requiring the use of an automobile. Implementation of this category by
residential zoning should provide for and coordinate intensive residential uses in proximity to
commercial centers. The residential designation indicates that it is expected that development
will occur within municipal boundaries, which may require annexation prior to
development…All residential housing should be arranged with consideration of compatibility
with adjacent development, natural constraints such as watercourses or steep slopes, and in a
fashion which advances the overall goals of the Bozeman growth policy. The residential
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 14 of 21
designation is intended to provide the primary locations for additional housing within the
planning area.”
“Community Commercial Mixed Use.” The growth policy states that, “activities within
this land use category are the basic employment and services necessary for a vibrant
community. Establishments located within these categories draw from the community as a
whole for their employee and customer base and are sized accordingly. A broad range of
functions including retail, education, professional and personal services, offices, residences,
and general service activities typify this designation. In the “center-based” land use pattern,
Community Commercial Mixed Use areas are integrated with significant transportation
corridors, including transit and non-automotive routes, to facilitate efficient travel
opportunities. The density of development is expected to be higher than currently seen in
most commercial areas in Bozeman and should include multi-story buildings…High density
residential areas are expected in close proximity. Including residential units on sites within
this category, typically on upper floors, will facilitate the provision of services and
opportunities to persons without requiring the use of an automobile… Mixed use areas
should be developed in an integrated, pedestrian friendly manner and should not be overly
dominated by any single land use. Higher intensity employment and residential uses are
encouraged in the core of the area or adjacent to significant streets and intersections. As
needed, building height transitions should be provided to be compatible with adjacent
development.”
There is a concurrent GPA for the subject property that proposes to change the future land
use designation to “Residential Emphasis Mixed Use.” The Bozeman Community Plan
describes REMU as the following: “The Residential Mixed-Use category “promotes
neighborhoods with supporting services that are substantially dominated by housing. A
diversity of residential housing types should be built on the majority of any area within this
category. Housing choice for a variety of households is desired and can include attached and
small detached single-household dwellings, apartments, and live-work units. Residences
should be included on the upper floors of buildings with ground floor commercial uses…The
category is appropriate near commercial centers and larger areas should have access on
collector and arterial streets. Multi-household higher density urban development is expected.
Any development within this category should have a well integrated transportation and open
space network which encourages pedestrian activity and provides ready access within and to
adjacent development.”
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 15 of 21
As Table C-16 from the Bozeman Community Plan shows, the proposed zoning of R-3 is an
implementing district for the future land use designation of “Residential Emphasis Mixed
Use”.
Proposed Zoning Designation and Land Uses:
The applicant has requested zoning of R-3 (Residential Medium Density District). The intent of
the R-3 residential office district is “to provide for the development of one- to five-household
residential structures near service facilities within the city. This purpose is accomplished by:
1. Providing for minimum lot sizes in developed areas consistent with the established
development patterns while providing greater flexibility for clustering lots and
mixing housing types in newly developed areas.
19105, Staff Report for the Bridger View Redevelopment ZMA Page 16 of 21
2. Providing for a variety of housing types, including single household dwellings, two
to four household dwellings, and townhouses to serve the varied needs of
households of different size, age and character, while reducing the adverse effect of
non-residential uses.
Use of this zone is appropriate for areas with good access to parks, community services and/or
transit.”
