Memorandum
________________________________________________________________________________
INTRODUCTION
At the request of Delaney & Company, TerraQuatic, LLC completed the wetland and nonwetland
waterway delineation within Delaney & Company property north and east of the Village Downtown
on June 28, 2014 (Figure 1). The project site is located in the NW of Section 8, T2S, R6E. The northern-most tip of the project is in the NENENE quarter of Section 7, T2S, R6E. There is an
active railroad track along the northeast boundary of the site and the central area of the City of
Bozeman is along the southwest boundary; the project site is within the city limits. The delineation
was also conducted within the railroad right-of-way (ROW); wetland and upland acreages include
Delaney & Company property and railroad ROW areas. METHODS
Wetlands were delineated using the 2010 Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland
Delineation Manual: Great Plains Region (Version 2.0) (U. S. Army Corps of Engineers [USACE]
2010). The 2013 National Wetland Plant List was used to determine vegetation indicator status rating (e.g. OBL: obligate; Lichvar 2013). Sample points (SP) were established within the wetland
(WL) and adjacent upland (UPL), i.e. nonwetland area. At each sample point wetland indicator data
were collected and analyzed using USACE wetland determination data forms. In general, an area
qualifies as a wetland if a site exhibits positive wetland indicators for three parameters: vegetation,
soils, and hydrology.
The wetland function assessed using the MDT Montana Wetland Functional Assessment Method
(Berglund and McEldowney, 2008). Category 1 wetlands are the highest functioning, where as a
Category IV wetland has the lowest function.

Figure 1. Delaney & Company 2014 wetland and nonwetland waterway delineation boundary
(red polygon). Active railroad tracks are immediately adjacent to the northeast side of property
and I-90 is east and within visual distance of the property; the Bozeman city-center is along the southwest property boundary.
Nonwetland waterways (NWW) are generally delineated by surveying or using aerial photography
to draw the vegetation/open water boundary. These data are typically used to establish the length of
the channel bed that would be disturbed during a proposed project and submitted as part of the
Section 404 permitting process. The channel bed area is not included in the surrounding wetland acreage except during the assessment of wetland function.
RESULTS
Wetlands
The Delaney & Company 2104 project site includes one large connected wetland area that has been
separated into four distinct wetland community types on the basis of dominant vegetation
composition (Exhibit 1, Appendix A). In lieu of lengthy verbal descriptions of each wetland
indicator for each wetland area these descriptions have been included in Table 1. USACE data sheets are included in Appendix B. Photographs of the wetlands and nonwetland waterways are
included in Appendix C. NRCS soil data are included in Appendix D.

Wetland Cowardin types are: Wetland-1, palustrine emergent-persistent (PEM1); WL-2, PEM1/riverine, lower perennial (R2), unconsolidated bottom, mud (UB3); WL-3/3a, PEM1, palustrine scrub-shrub, broad-leafed deciduous (PSS1), R2UB3; and, WL-4/4a, PEM1, PSS1,
palustrine forested, broad-leafed deciduous (PFO1), R2UB3.
Nonwetland Waterways There are three nonwetland waterways (NWW) that occur within the same channel alignment (Table 3; Exhibits 1and 2, Appendix A). NWW-1 and 2 are located between the MDT and
Delaney properties. The southwest end of the channel (NWW-1: 567 feet) is now considered a
ditch since the MDT rerouted the stream through their mitigation site. The new MDT stream
channel (NWW-2) enters the original ditched channel and flows northeast for approximately 189 feet where it enters a culvert under the active railroad tracks. NWW-3 is the Story Mill Ditch which flows through the western-most segments of WL-3 and under the dirt road to Simkin-Hallins
lumber yard. The length of NWW-3 within these WL-3 areas is approximately 523 feet.

All of these channels would likely be considered jurisdictional by the USACE. However NWW-1 and NWW-3 may not be considered jurisdictional by the Gallatin County Conservation District because they are true ditches. These issues will be confirmed during the permitting stage of any
future project development.
Channels south of and between the old railroad berm and the NWW-1/NWW-2 system are man-made; some are historic and others were created in the last five years. All of the historic ditches were cleaned at the same time the new ditches were installed to eliminate ponding that had occurred
as a result of beaver activity. Beaver had plugged the main culvert under the old railroad berm and
had built several damns north of the berm. None of these drain ditches on the south side of the old
railroad berm were assigned NWW labels. The culvert under the old berm conveys waster into the forested and scrub-shrub wetlands on the north side of the berm. Water flows through these wetlands in several directions and is not considered an official ditch or stream, but is acknowledged
in the wetland functional assessments.
Species of Concern A MNHP species of concern (SOC) report within a one-mile buffer of the project legal description and a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) species occurrence by county list were reviewed
prior to conducting field work (Appendix F; status definitions included). The MNHP report lists
six state-listed SOC; only three of those species could potentially or do occur within the project site.
The MNHP report includes no federally-listed threatened or endangered species, and no proposed or candidate species. However, the USFWS federally-listed species for Gallatin County includes seven species, only one of which is reviewed below.
State-listed Species of Concern
Three state-listed SOC that may or do occur within the project area include: Veery (SB3, Catharus fuscescens), Bobolink (S3B, Dolichonyx oryzivorus), and slender wedgegrass (S3S4, Sphenopholis intermedia). Veery have in fact been observed in the wetland area in 2010, but it is likely not a
primary habitat. Bobolink were not observed in the wetland during intensive Audubon surveys in
2006, and are more likely to occur in drier meadows than this wetland complex. Slender
wedgegrass was last reported in the general area in 1905, and no unusual grasses were noted in the wetlands during the field surveys, however a concerted effort to find the species was not conducted.

Federally-listed Species The threatened Ute ladies’ tresses (Spiranthes diluvialis) is the only federally-listed species that
occurs in Beaverhead and Jefferson Counties (Lesica 2012); no Ute ladies’ tresses have been
observed in the area of Bozeman and they were not observed during several site visits, though no
official plant survey was conducted.
SUMMARY
TerraQuatic, LLC completed the wetland and nonwetland waterway delineation within the Delaney
& Co. 2014 proposed project area on June 28, 2014. There are 37.14 acres of wetlands within the
project area which include 16.46 acres of emergent, 12.43 acres of scrub-shrub, and 8.25 acres of forested wetland totaling 223.0 wetland functional units.
There are three nonwetland waterways (NWW) within the project boundary totaling approximately
1,279 linear feet, 15% of which is a natural stream and 85% is irrigation or drain ditch. Drain
ditches within the area south of the berm that were created or cleaned within the last 5 years were not included in total project linear channel footage.

STATE
Rank
Definition
G1 S1 At high risk because of extremely limited and/or rapidly declining population numbers, range and/or habitat,
making it highly vulnerable to global extinction or extirpation in the state.
G2 S2 At risk because of very limited and/or potentially declining population numbers, range and/or habitat, making it vulnerable to global extinction or extirpation in the state.
G3 S3 Potentially at risk because of limited and/or declining numbers, range and/or habitat, even though it may be abundant in some areas.
G4 S4 Apparently secure, though it may be quite rare in parts of its range, and/or suspected to be declining.
G5 S5 Common, widespread, and abundant (although it may be rare in parts of its range). Not vulnerable in most of its range.
GX SX Presumed Extinct or Extirpated - Species is believed to be extinct throughout its range or extirpated in
Montana. Not located despite intensive searches of historical sites and other appropriate habitat, and small likelihood that it will ever be rediscovered.
GH SH Historical, known only from records usually 40 or more years old; may be rediscovered.
GNR SNR Not Ranked as of yet.
GU SU Unrankable - Species currently unrankable due to lack of information or due to substantially conflicting
information about status or trends.
GNA SNA A conservation status rank is not applicable for one of the following reasons: 1) The taxa is of Hybrid Origin; is Exotic or Introduced; is Accidental or 2) is Not Confidently Present in the state. (see other codes below)
Combination or Range Ranks
G#G#
or S#S#
Indicates a range of uncertainty about the status of the species.
e.g. G1G3 = Global Rank ranges between G1 and G3 inclusive
Sub-rank
T# Rank of a subspecies or variety. Appended to the global rank of the full species, e.g. G4T3
Qualifiers
Q Questionable taxonomy that may reduce conservation priority-Distinctiveness of this entity as a taxon at
the current level is questionable; resolution of this uncertainty may result in change from a species to a subspecies or hybrid, or inclusion of this taxon in another taxon, with the resulting taxon having a lower-
priority (numerically higher) conservation status rank. Appended to the global rank, e.g. G3Q
? Inexact Numeric Rank - Denotes uncertainty; inexactness.
A Accidental - Species is accidental or casual in Montana, in other words, infrequent and outside usual
range. Includes species (usually birds or butterflies) recorded once or only a few times at a location. A few of these species may have bred on the few occasions they were recorded.
B Breeding - Rank refers to the breeding population of the species in Montana. Appended to the state rank, e.g. S2B,S5N = At risk during breeding season, but common in the winter
N Nonbreeding - Rank refers to the non-breeding population of the species in Montana. Appended to the state rank, e.g. S5B,S2N = Common during breeding season, but at risk in the winter
M Migratory - Species occurs in Montana only during migration.
Federal Status Designations in this column reflect the status of a species under the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA), or as “sensitive” by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) or Bureau of Land Management (BLM).
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Endangered Species Act) Status, if any, of a taxon under the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C.A. § 1531-1543 (Supp.
1996)) is noted. Designation Descriptions
LE Listed endangered: Any species in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range (16 U.S.C. 1532(6)).
LT Listed threatened: Any species likely to become an endangered species within the foreseeable
future throughout all or a significant portion of its range (16 U.S.C. 1532(20)).
C Candidate: Those taxa for which sufficient information on biological status and threats exists to
propose to list them as threatened or endangered. We encourage their consideration in
environmental planning and partnerships; however, none of the substantive or procedural provisions of the Act apply to candidate species.
DM Recovered, delisted, and being monitored - Any previously listed species that is now recovered,
has been delisted, and is being monitored.
NL Not listed - No designation.
XE Experimental - Essential population - An experimental population whose loss would be likely
to appreciably reduce the likelihood of the survival of the species in the wild.
XN Experimental - Nonessential population - An experimental population of a listed species
reintroduced into a specific area that receives more flexible management under the Act.
CH Critical Habitat - The specific areas (i) within the geographic area occupied by a species, at the time it is listed, on which are found those physical or biological features (I) essential to conserve the species and (II) that may require special management considerations or protection; and (ii)
specific areas outside the geographic area occupied by the species at the time it is listed upon determination that such areas are essential to conserve the species.
PS Partial status - status in only a portion of the species' range. Typically indicated in a "full" species record where an infraspecific taxon or population, that has a record in the database has
USESA status, but the entire species does not.
PS:value Partial status - status in only a portion of the species' range. The value of that status appears in parentheses because the entity with status is not recognized as a valid taxon by Central Sciences
(usually a population defined by geopolitical boundaries or defined administratively, such as
experimental populations.)
For example, Yellow-billed Cuckoo (Coccyzus americanus) is ranked PS:C. Partial Status - Candidate. Designated as a Candidate in the Western U.S. Distinct Population Segment (DPS) (subspecies occidentalis)
BGEPA The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act of 1940 (BGEPA) - (16 U.S.C. 668-668c) prohibits
anyone, without a permit issued by the Secretary of the Interior, from taking bald or golden
eagles, including their parts, nests, or eggs. The BGEPA provides criminal and civil penalties for persons who take, possess, sell, purchase, barter, offer to sell, purchase or barter, transport, export
or import, at any time or any manner, any bald eagle ... [or any golden eagle], alive or dead, or
any part, nest, or egg thereof. The BGEPA defines take as pursue, shoot, shoot at, poison, wound, kill, capture, trap, collect, molest or disturb. "Disturb" means to agitate or bother a bald or golden
eagle to a degree that causes, or is likely to cause, based on the best scientific information
available, 1) injury to an eagle, 2) a decrease in its productivity, by substantially interfering with normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering behavior, or 3) nest abandonment, by substantially
interfering with normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering behavior. In addition to immediate impacts, this definition also covers impacts that result from human-induced alterations initiated around a previously used nest site during a time when eagles are not present, if, upon the eagles
return, such alterations agitate or bother an eagle to a degree that injures an eagle or substantially interferes with normal breeding, feeding, or sheltering habits and causes, or is likely to cause, a
loss of productivity or nest abandonment.
MBTA The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) - (16 U.S.C. §§ 703-712, July 3, 1918, as amended 1936, 1960, 1968, 1969, 1974, 1978, 1986 and 1989) implements four treaties that provide for international protection of migratory birds. The statute’s language is clear that actions resulting in
a "taking" or possession (permanent or temporary) of a protected species, in the absence of a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) permit or regulatory authorization, are a violation of the MBTA. The MBTA states, "Unless and except as permitted by regulations ... it shall be unlawful
at any time, by any means, or in any manner to pursue, hunt, take, capture, kill ... possess, offer for sale, sell ... purchase ... ship, export, import ... transport or cause to be transported ... any
migratory bird, any part, nest, or eggs of any such bird .... [The Act] prohibits the taking, killing,
possession, transportation, import and export of migratory birds, their eggs, parts, and nests, except when specifically authorized by the Department of the Interior." The word "take" is
defined by regulation as "to pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or attempt to
pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect." The USFWS maintains a list of species protected by the MBTA at 50 CFR 10.13. This list includes over one thousand species of
migratory birds, including eagles and other raptors, waterfowl, shorebirds, seabirds, wading birds,
and passerines. The USFWS also maintains alist of species not protected by the MBTA. MBTA does not protect species that are not native to the United States or species groups not explicitly
covered under the MBTA; these include species such as the house (English) sparrow, European starling, rock dove (pigeon), Eurasian collared-dove, and non-migratory upland game birds.
BCC The 1988 amendment to the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act mandates the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to identify species, subspecies, and populations of all migratory nongame birds
that, without additional conservation actions, are likely to become candidates for listing under the
Endangered Species Act. Birds of Conservation Concern 2008 (BCC 2008) is the most recent effort to carry out this mandate. The overall goal of this report is to accurately identify the
migratory and non-migratory bird species (beyond those already designated as federally
threatened or endangered) that represent the Service's highest conservation priorities.

THE PARKLANDS SUBDIVISION PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION
#170090
PP ITEM #13 - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
PRELIMINARY PLAT FORM PP, ITEM #13
ADDITIONAL SUBDIVISION PLAT SUPPLEMENTS
A. SURFACE WATER Refer to Appendix A of this report for copies of the USGS quad map and Flood Insurance Rate
Map showing the location of the Mill Ditch Diversion and its associated floodplain. Mill Ditch
Diversion is a Gallatin Conservation District jurisdictional stream. None of the construction
activities associated with this project will required alteration of the stream bed and therefore a 310 and 404 permit will not be required for Mill Ditch. A large wetland area is located in the north and the east the property. The wetlands which fall in the Parklands Subdivision boundary encompass
10.91 acres. 2.85 acres of wetland disturbances are proposed with this subdivision. A 404 Army
Corps permit is being filed for the project (see wetlands section for further detail).
A Flood Hazard Evaluation has previously been prepared for the Mill Ditch Diversion with the results outlined on the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps enclosed in Appendix A. Base flood
elevations have been established for the property and the current regulatory 100-year flood plain
and floodway are shown on the preliminary plat.
B. FLOODPLAINS
A Flood Hazard Evaluation has previously been prepared for the Mill Ditch Diversion with the
results outlined on the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps enclosed in Appendix A. Base flood
elevations have been established for the property and the 100-year flood plain and floodway is shown on the preliminary plat. Front Street construction will encroach on the 100-year floodplain. All necessary floodplain permits and LOMR-F documentation will be filed with FEMA and the
local floodplain administrator prior to commencing with the Front Street roadwork.
C. GROUNDWATER Groundwater depths vary greatly across the site due to the large elevation changes of the existing
topography. Well logs from several wells in the area are included in Appendix A (note: Appendix
A includes supporting data submitted with the original PUD for the Village Downtown which
encompasses the Parklands Subdivision area). The proposed lots are located on elevated land so groundwater is not anticipated to be encountered during building construction. Shallow
groundwater depths (1-3 feet) are anticipated across the lowland areas on site.
Surface runoff will be controlled by channeling flows into a detention pond which will limit
discharges to pre-development rates. The detention pond will also filter sediments and oil reducing the potential for contamination of downstream aquifers.
D. GEOLOGY-SOILS-SLOPES
The Gallatin Valley is located in a high intermontane basin in southwestern Montana. Several maps of area geology prepared by The U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological surveys
THE PARKLANDS SUBDIVISION PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION
#170090
PP ITEM #13 - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
are included in Appendix B (note: Appendix B includes geological data submitted with the original
PUD for the Village Downtown which encompasses the Parklands Subdivision area). The maps indicate that the site is located on both quaternary and tertiary aged strata composed predominately of alluvium and fluviatile deposits. According to the soils data supplied by the NRCS the site is
composed mainly of Blackmore silt loam, Enbar-nythar loams, and Threeriv-bonebasin loams.
These soil types are considered fair to limited for most types of construction. In addition to native
soils there are several large railroad berms found on the perimeter which are likely constructed of imported fill material. Slopes very across the site from 0 to 8% with slopes in the lower wetland area in the 2% range.
The limiting features for the native soil types include the potential for shrink-swell, depth to
saturated zone and potential for flooding. As with all other construction projects within the valley, accepted engineering practices will be used to overcome the limitations.
The following protective measures will be taken to ensure that the existing geology is not a
problem:
All cut and fill slopes shall be placed in uniform lifts compacted to 95% of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D698.
All topsoil, including organic material, will be removed from building and pavement areas.
Design of all streets and parking areas shall use accepted engineering practices to determine structural sections and the use of separation fabrics/structural geogrids based on soil conditions
and traffic loading.
Exterior building footings shall be placed at a minimum of 48 inches below grade, for frost protection.
Buildings will be designed for seismic zone 3 as outlined in the Uniform Building Code.
As with all other areas of the Gallatin Valley, there is the possibility of earthquakes occurring in the area. The Valley is within Seismic Zone 3 (Seismic zone 0 having the least earthquake potential, Zone 4 the greatest). Other than this standard earthquake hazard there are no geologic
hazards to be associated with this property. The Gallatin County Soil Survey map and all required
soils reports prepared by the NRCS are enclosed in Appendix B of this report.
E. VEGETATION
The Parklands Subdivision site has been relatively undisturbed and it contains native grasses,
wetlands, and weeds. Several varieties of trees and shrubs are found adjacent to the Mill Ditch
Diversion and throughout the wetlands area. Properties on the north, south and west side of the development are currently developed. No critical plant communities are found within or adjacent
to the proposed site. Consequently, the proposed development will not affect critical plant
communities.
A noxious weed plan has been prepared and approved by the Gallatin County Weed Board. The plan is intended to control the spread of weeds associated with development. Noxious weeds
THE PARKLANDS SUBDIVISION PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION
#170090
PP ITEM #13 - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
(common tansy, knapweed, scattered thistle, hounds tongue, Canadian thistle) have been found on
site. A seed plan for disturbed areas has been developed and included in the noxious weed plan. A copy of the approved Weed Management and Revegetation Plan is included in Appendix G.
F. WILDLIFE
There are no known endangered species or critical game ranges on site. The wetland areas are considered environmentally sensitive area which provide a habitat for wildlife and critical plant communities.
Due to the historical use of the site, and the adjacent residential and commercial development,
there is minimal wildlife currently utilizing the property to be developed. Wildlife species consist mainly of rodents and common birds. This development has been reconfigured to have minimal wetland disturbance to protect the native vegetation and wildlife.
Negative impacts from surface water runoff to wildlife in the adjacent wetlands and Mill Ditch
will be reduced by limiting storm water runoff in a detention pond to the predevelopment release rate. A storm water discharge permit and storm water pollution prevention will be prepared and reviewed by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and the City of Bozeman
Stormwater Department. Best management practices will be used to control erosion,
sedimentation, and containment of harmful materials during construction.
G. HISTORICAL FEATURES
According to the Montana Historical Society, Historic Preservation Office there have been several
previously recorded historic sites located within T2S, R5E, Sections 7 and 8. None of these sites
are located on the subject property. The response letter received with the original Village Downtown PUD back in 2003 recommended that a cultural resource inventory occur to determine if any unrecorded sites will be impacted by the development.
A Historical Overview for the property was put together by Jim Jenks the Historic Preservation
Planner for the City of Bozeman in July of 2002. A copy of the overview is enclosed in Appendix I. According to the historical overview the first documented use of the property occurred in 1866 when a flour mill, known as the Gallatin Mill, and private residence for Perry W. McAdow were
constructed. Perry McAdow is considered one of the first figures in early Bozeman history. By the
early twentieth century the property had changed hands several times and came into use as a dairy
farm known as the Jersey Dairy. Since then the property has largely been abandoned for years. According to the overview the buildings which currently exist on the site probably do not date
from the McAdow period of use therefore they are not considered historically significant.
As recommended in the Historical Overview, the developer has installed a ground mounted plaque
at the intersection of the pedestrian trail and Village Downtown Boulevard. The plaque includes a historical narrative of the site.
If, in the course of the proposed development any sites are uncovered, the State Historic
Preservation Office will be notified. See Appendix E for response letter.

H. AGRICULTURE (WAIVED)
I. AGRICULTURAL WATER USER FACILITIES
The Mill Ditch Diversion runs through the southwestern corner of the property and borders the
development on the west and north sides. Storm water will be retained in detention ponds prior to
being transferred to the Mill Ditch Diversion. The ability of the Mill Ditch Diversion to convey irrigation water is not affected by this project and the existing stream bed will remain undisturbed.
J. WATER AND SEWER
Water for domestic use and fire protection will be provided by connections to the City of Bozeman water system. There is an existing 8” water main in Village Downtown Boulevard running under the north side of the roadway. The existing 8” main will be live tapped on the north and south sides
of the project and a new 8” water main will loop down Front Street and between Block 1 and Block
2. Two existing hydrants, #1857 and #1858, will service Block 1 and two additional hydrants will
be installed with this project to service Block 2. Two new hydrants are proposed; one at the intersection of Alley and Front Street and another is proposed within the Alley.
Brian Heaston calculated the cash in lieu of water rights (CILWR) value for the originally proposed
16 residential lots which was assessed at 0.234 AF/lot @$6k/AF. ~$22.5k. For the new subdivision
layout of 10 residential lots, the new water rights assessment is 0.234 AF/lot @$6k/AF ~$14.0k. An existing 12” asbestos cement sewer main runs from north to south through the proposed
Parklands Subdivision. This existing gravity interceptor line is referred to as the Front Street
Interceptor in the 2015 Wastewater Facility plan and is indicated as a near-term improvement.
This sanitary sewer main will be relocated with this project and the main will be upgraded to a 21” PVC SDR 35 main. The new main size was determined based on the City of Bozeman Capital Improvements Plan recommended upgrades to the existing system. The existing 12” asbestos
cement main will be replaced downstream of existing manhole D0419 installed with SID 425. At
this location, a new 60” sanitary sewer manhole will be installed and the new gravity main will
run north to Front Street. From here, the main will jog northwest and tie back in to the existing sanitary sewer manhole D0421 installed with SID 425 north of Village Downtown Boulevard.
Refer to the water and sewer design report included in Appendix J for further detail on this section.
K. STORM WATER MANAGEMENT
Storm water runoff from The Village Downtown Subdivision is currently conveyed to detention
and retention ponds located throughout the subdivision. These storm water facilities filter sediment
and oils from the storm water before the water is discharged into a drainage or allowed to infiltrate
into the ground. The facilities currently installed have been approved by the City of Bozeman Engineering Department and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality. The existing
pond on the south side of Village Downtown Boulevard near the cul-de-sac will need to be
reformed to accommodate the proposed buildings and new lot layout. The relocation of the pond
THE PARKLANDS SUBDIVISION PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION
#170090
PP ITEM #13 - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
is shown on the site plan. A Storm Water Management Design Report, a drainage area map for the
overall subdivision and copies of the City and MDEQ approval letters are attached in Appendix C. L. STREETS, ROADS, AND ALLEYS
Access to the site will be provided from North Broadway Avenue to Village Downtown Boulevard and through the proposed Front Street and Alley, from where the residents will access their driveways. North Broadway Avenue is classified as a collector street and Village Downtown
Boulevard is classified as a local street. Front Street is proposed to be a 35’ wide paved roadway;
the Alley will be a 24’ wide paved surface. Front Street will have 5’ sidewalks on either side with
boulevards. A pedestrian trail corridor has been constructed along the eastern boundaries of the subdivision
atop the old railway berm. This trail corridor will be further expanded with this project with the
addition of a trail network proposed in Linear Park 1 which will link up with the existing trail
corridor via a class II gravel trail. A Traffic Impact Study was previously prepared for the Village Downtown in 2003 by Bob Abelin
and Abelin Traffic Services completed an Intersection Signalization Warrant in 2006 regarding
traffic volumes created by the Village Downtown, copies of these studies are on file in the City
Archives. According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) “generally, the suggested baseline for requiring a TIS is when the proposed development generates 100 new trips to the adjacent street network during the peak-hour of the adjacent street traffic.” The ITE trip generation
spreadsheet below was prepared for this project based on 25 residential dwelling units (DUs)
which are proposed with this site. The calculations below indicate that less than 100 peak-hour
trips will be generated, therefore a revised TIS will not be required with this subdivision.
M. UTILITIES
Letters requesting comments on their ability to service this subdivision have been sent to the following service providers:

Response letters from all of those who chose to comment are enclosed in Appendix E (original PUD letters from 2002 are also included).
N. EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES
A written statement from Gary J. Griffith, Supervisor of Maintenance and Operations, Bozeman School District #7 is enclosed in Appendix E. The response letter indicates that the increased
enrollment can be accommodated by the present personnel and facilities and by the existing school
bus system.
O. LAND USE
The Village Downtown consists of three separate projects, The Village Townhouses (16
townhouse units & 6 single family units), The Village Lofts (4 buildings w/43 residential units
each) and The Village Terraces (8 buildings w/ 9 residential units each), the proposed final phase of development. The entire original development plan consisted of 266 residential units, which is subject to change. The property is within the City of Bozeman with zoning designations of R-4
and R-O.
P. PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES The proposed subdivision configuration consists of 9 single-household lots and 1 multi-household
lot, resulting in a total of 20 dwelling units (DU). The required parkland for this subdivision is
20 DU’s * 0.03 ac/DU = 0.60 acres of parkland required. The provided park area is 0.63 acres (27,460 sf). Therefore, parkland requirements are being met
for this subdivision. The current number of dwelling units was established in order to have a net
residential density of 8 DU/acre. If additional dwelling units are proposed on the multi-family lot,
cash-in-lieu will be provided in order to meet the parkland requirements.
There is an existing 25’ linear park/trail easement that runs along the northeast boundary of the
property. This easement was recorded with Minor Subdivision 344B and is intended to provide a
pedestrian connection from the Village Downtown Subdivision to the Northern Pacific Addition
to Bozeman Subdivision. This connection will be installed in the future.
Additionally, Lot R1 will be sold to the Audubon Society to exist in perpetuity as a wetland park.
A concept of this layout has been provided in Appendix F. Please see the Master Park Plan write-
up for more information.

PP ITEM #13 - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
Q. NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN
The proposed subdivision does not include a neighborhood center plan as all of the proposed lots will be within one half mile of Downtown Bozeman, including the City Library and Lindley Park.
The lot area of the proposed subdivision is only 40% of Lot 4. The majority of the property will
be left as undisturbed wetlands. Since the proposed project is located within one half mile of
downtown Bozeman; per section 38.23.020 this project is exempt from the requirements of Sec. 38.23.020.
R. LIGHTING PLAN
A street lighting plan will be submitted during construction document review which will conform to the latest lighting standards: COB Design Standards and Specifications, March 2004, Addendum No. 6 approved 5/1/17. It is anticipated that a 25-foot light pole will be installed at the
cul-de-sac on Village Downtown Boulevard. The street lighting design and layout will comply
with the Bozeman Lighting and Electrical Specifications in Addendum No. 6. Typical street light
standard detail, Figure 10 with LED luminaires is typical of what will be specified for this project. S. AFFORDABLE HOUSING
This subdivision proposes 9 new single-household (market-rate) lots and therefore no affordable
housing is required per BMC Section 38.43.030.A.1. T. MISCELLANEOUS (WAIVED)

Subject: Proposed Parklands at Village Downtown Subdivision, Bozeman, MT (170090)
Dear Mr. Hausauer,
Referencing your letter received June 26, 2017 concerning the evaluation of the subject development.
Bozeman Public Schools would expect that the 24 proposed residential dwelling units planned for this
development would generate the following students:
♦ Pre-K to 5th 6 Students
♦ 6th to 8th 3 Students
♦ 9th to 12th 4 Students
As of this date, the proposed development will be in the Hawthorne Elementary School, Chief Joseph Middle
School and Bozeman High School attendance areas. Population growth and demographic shifts in the future
may necessitate boundary realignments to existing schools, which could modify the designated attending
schools. Similarly, if a designated school attendance area’s student population exceeds the school’s
capacity, attendance at an alternate school may be required.
Infrastructure, such as sidewalks, should be constructed for the entire project irrespective of when actual
homes are developed to provide a Safe Route to School pathway for students to safely traverse the
developed and existing roadways.
Our existing bus system can accommodate the estimated number of additional students. Please let us know
if there are any changes to the proposed development as this could modify the above student projections.
Sincerely,
Todd Swinehart, PE

Overall Project Description
The Parklands at Village Downtown Subdivision is located in Gallatin County on the east
edge of Bozeman, Montana. Located in NW ¼, Section 8 Township 2 S., Range 6E of
P.M.M. The owner is Village Investments Group, 101 E. Main Suite D, Bozeman MT
59715.
The park is 27,460 square feet with a 25 foot trail easement connecting it to Village
Downtown Boulevard. The park and easement contain a six foot concrete sidewalk and
will provide for lot access, trees, plantings, open space and passive recreation
opportunities.
Property History, Adjacent Property Ownership, Zoning and Location
The Parklands property has historically been used for agriculture. It was a part of the
Sande Ranch until it was acquired by Village Investment Group. The property is bordered
by lands owned by Village Investment Group Inc., Montana Rail Link and Village Loft
condominiums. See Exhibit 3 for complete list of owners.
4
Soils Information
Soils in the Parklands at Village Downtown are primarily loams, typical of relict stream
terraces. Blackmore silt loam comprises the majority of the area with minor instances of
straw loam. Soils are deep, nutrient rich and slightly alkaline. Loam soils are appropriate
for park development and suitable for woody plant growth, herbaceous plants, and seeded
or sodded grassland. See Exhibit 4 for complete soil survey.
Miscellaneaous Items
The subdivision will be developed in one phase. Phase I improvements will include the
linear park and trail corridor.
An environmental assessment was provided by Resource Technologies when the initial
minor subdivision was filed.
There are no critical lands or preconstruction requirements involved with this park.
5
PARK PLAN
The overall plan for the Parklands at Village downtown linear park provides a cohesive
park, trail and open space system for the community.
The Parklands linear park and trail corridor shall:
1. Provide for a variety of passive recreational activities ranging from the
sidewalk for walking and jogging to bird watching and passive open space
activities.
2. A twelve foot wide all weather access to utilities is also provided in the linear
corridor.
Improvements will be installed with the appropriate phase of the development. Village
Development Group will be responsible for park establishment, grading and seeding,
planting boulevard trees and plantings, installing the well, irrigation system and sidewalk.
All seeding and planting methods and materials shall meet all current City of Bozeman
guidelines and requirements. (See Exhibits 1a and 1b)
Plant Community Types
The parks and open space in Parklands at Village downtown are designed to
accommodate a variety of recreational activities. The vegetation will vary depending on
the type and intensity of use. Generally, the plant communities fall into two zones:
dryland, non-irrigated grassland and irrigated turfgrass. (See Exhibits)
Irrigated Lawn Community
Location: Parklands boulevards
Uses: Passive recreational uses
Elements: Walkways
Maintenance: Turf areas will be irrigated
and mown
Drip irrigation to all plantings not in lawn
areas
Trees: Littleleaf Linden, Thornless
Honeylocust, Helena Norway Maple
Seed and sodded lawn areas are a high quality
Kentucky Bluegrass mix

comprise more than 40% of the overall number of trees and at
least three different species shall be used in the street tree
plantings.
All boulevards will be seeded or sodded to a high quality
Kentucky Bluegrass mix and provided with an automatic
sprinkler system.
Large shade trees will be used in open space areas
to enhance the natural setting, provide shade,
provide wind protection, delineate use areas,
buffer surrounding uses, and to provide beauty.
Species will include Quaking Aspen (Populus
tremuloides)

Irrigation Plan
As reflected on the conceptual landscape plans the boulevards adjacent to the linear park
will be irrigated. These areas will utilize an automatic underground irrigation system. A
well will be installed for irrigation in the park. The grass in the boulevard will be
irrigated Kentucky Bluegrass turf. All trees and shrubs outside of lawn areas will be drip
irrigated. Irrigation shall be installed to meet all City of Bozeman Park Division design
guidelines and requirements. Irrigation plans are included in exhibits showing proposed
layout, hardware specifications as well as water usage calculations. See Exhibits 2a and
2b.
Well Information
A well drilled in the Village Downtown at the south end of Village Crossing Way west of
the cul de sac on 4/16/2008 space produced 25 gpm with the drill stem set at 109 feet for
1 hour with a 1 hour recovery time. Total depth of the well is 109 feet. Static water
depth is 35 feet. (See Exhibit 6 for full well log)
Park Maintenance
The project developer will be responsible for the maintenance and care of the parks, trails
and open space until 75% of the lots are sold. The developer shall warrant against
defects in the initial improvements for a period of two years from the date of their written
acceptance by the City of Bozeman. At that time, the maintenance shall become the
responsibility of the Home Owners Association having been formed under the Covenants,
Conditions and Restrictions of the Village Downtown Subdivision. The Home Owners
shall be responsible for maintenance in perpetuity, or until such time as a park
maintenance district, or some other mechanism, is created to maintain dedicated park
land. The HOA Board of Directors will provide Waiver of Protest to the City of
Bozeman upon its formation. At this time it is planned for the developer to contract out
the park and open space maintenance functions.
Maintenance duties may include; spring care, mowing, fertilizing, watering, and
maintaining play equipment.
Spring: Spring care will be as follows: as soon as the snow is gone and the grass is dry
enough to walk on without compaction, remove leaves and winter debris with a broom-
type rake. Power raking at 3-5 year intervals will be beneficial for heavily thatched
lawns. Aerating will also alleviate compacted soil conditions and should be performed
when necessary. Pruning of trees and shrubs shall occur in early spring before leaves
emerge, except on maples and birch, which shall be pruned late July. Pruning shall be
performed according to ISA standards to encourage good plant health, proper shape and
branch angles, and to eliminate unwanted suckers. No topping of trees will be allowed.
Mowing: Mowing will start in the spring as soon as new growth starts. Most lawns
should be mowed at a 2” height in the spring, early summer and fall. During the heat of
8
summer raise the mower to 2.5”. Frequent mowing at 4-5 day intervals is essential to
discourage weeds. Native grass areas are not intended to be mown, although they should
be mowed to control weeds until grasses are established.
Fertilizer: Fertilizer will be applied at regular intervals a minimum of three times per
year to all turfgrass lawn areas. One pound of actual nitrogen per 1,000 sq.ft. will be used
at each application. The first application will be applied in the spring when mowing for
the first time, then six weeks later in early June and once in the late summer. Fertilizer
will be applied to a dry lawn and then watered in after applying. A high nitrogen lawn
food with approximately twice as much nitrogen as phosphorus and potassium should be
used. Added iron is recommended for our area.
Watering: Enough water will be applied at each watering to soak the soil down to the
depth of the root system. To conserve water, the amount of water applied will vary with
the amount of natural rainfall. Recommended is 1” of water per week. The turf will be
allowed to dry out between watering. Native grass areas will not require watering.
Weeds: Weed control will be the responsibility of the homeowners association. Weed
control will consist of regular herbicide applications after final grade work has been
completed and before seeding or sodding is to occur. Once turf areas are established,
broadleaf weeds will be managed with a liquid application of 2,4-D. This broadleaf
herbicide will be applied on a still day to a wet lawn when temperatures are above 70
degrees and the area will then not be watered for 2 days to follow. Native grass areas
should be mowed to control weeds until the grasses are established. Broadleaf herbicides
can also be used to aid in native grass establishment.
Snow: Snow removal on paved walkways will be included in maintenance
responsibilities. No snow removal will be provided on Class II trails.

RE: Response to DRC Comments – Parklands at Village Downtown Major Subdivision
Preliminary Plat (#17385) Ms. Rosenberg:
This letter is to provide a narrative response to the DRC comments from July 20, 2018:
Planning Division, Sarah Rosenberg, srosenberg@bozeman.net, 406-582-2297
Staff has found that the Major Subdivision application does not comply with the requirements of
the Bozeman UDC. Please note that the provisions written below do not resolve all issues and
new ones may arise based on new configuration.
Identified Code Corrections: Section 38.100.100
• No covenant or private restriction can be given on Block One, Lot One to limit
development as it must be developed to meet R-4 standards.
o Lot 1, Block 1 will be developed in the future and will conform to City of
Bozeman R-4 zoning regulations.
Section 38.420.100
• Lot 10 may or may not be developable based on limited ability to provide essential
services (i.e. road, water, sewer, utilities, etc.). If Lot 10 is to be developed, services need
to be justified to make it a developable lot. If it is not to become developed, it should
become common open space.
o Lot R1 (previously Lot 10) has legal access from the existing 60’ public access
and utility easement along the vacated Front Street right-of-way. The Front
Street right-of-way was previously vacated. Lot R1 also has access from the
existing 60’ public access and utility easement extending from the southeast end of Village Crossing Way. The water and sewer mains have been stubbed to the southeast along Front Street to allow for service connections should
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
Lot R1 be developed in the future. Lot R1 is intended to be donated to the Audubon Society to exist in perpetuity as a wetland park. Lot R1 must be
created as a developable lot (subject to future review) in order for the owner
to properly donate the parcel to the Audubon Society. A trail system will be installed within the park and will connect to the surrounding trail systems currently in place. An exhibit has been prepared illustrating this future plan and has been included in this submittal. Because of this, individual services
are not proposed to the lot but multiple options exist to extend services into
the property if necessary.
Section 38.400.010 Transportation, Facilities, & Access
• Relation to other developed areas must be arranged to provide adequate emergency
services and convenient movement for traffic. o All emergency vehicles/services have adequate access to the proposed subdivision.
• Access to subdivided land is required.
o Access has been provided by the proposed alley, Front Street, and the
existing 60’ public access and utility easement.
• Due to this code section, vacating the southeast side of Front Street is not permitted unless alternative access is provided with this subdivision plat.
o The Front Street right-of-way has already been vacated per Minor
Subdivision 344B. The right-of-way was replaced with a 60’ public access and utility easement which provides the required access.
• Dead end streets must comply with Fire Code.
o The dead end length of Front Street has been revised to be less than 150’ and therefore does not require a turnaround.
• The alley is not in conformance to Fire Code Standards.
o A turning analysis exhibit has been provided with this submittal showing a City of Bozeman Ladder Truck navigating the alley with no encroachments.
Section 38.410.100 Watercourse Setback
• Proposed regulated activities within a wetland require approval by the Wetlands Review
Board.
o All regulated activities within the wetlands are being reviewed by the Corp of
Engineers. A 401 permit has been approved by MDEQ and the 404 permit is
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
in the process of receiving approval. The 404 permit will be approved and obtained prior to any construction.
• The information submitted for the wetland review is insufficient. Additional information is required. Please see attached letter from RESPEC dated July 5, 2018.
o The comments from RESPC dated July 5, 2018 have been reviewed and
noted. A copy of TerraQuatic’s original wetland delineation report, the wetland impact addendum and map, and the joint 404 application was forwarded on to Marc from RESPEC for his review on August 13, 2018.
Section 38.420.020 Parkland Requirements
• A Parks Plan is required with this Subdivision. It needs to have a provision that allows for connection from trail to house.
o A Parks Plan has been provided with this submittal. It includes a provision
that allows for a connection from the trail to houses.
• The dedicated park does not meet road frontage standards. Please revise.
o The proposed park is intended to be a linear park which does not need to
meet road frontage standards for parks. This was discussed in a meeting with Ms. Rosenberg and Mr. Saunders at the City on August 3, 2018.
• Parkland dedication is not allowed in required watercourse setbacks unless approved by
review authority for incorporation into the design of the larger park area.
o The proposed linear park is intended to be connected to the proposed
Indreland Audubon Park in the future. This Audubon Park is going to exist
in perpetuity as a wetland park. This proposed linear park is intended to be
incorporated into the wetland park and act as a buffer from the residential houses to the existing wetlands as well as providing an additional trail connection from Front Street to Village Crossing Way.
Section 38.510 Block Frontage Standards
• Section 38.510.030.I: All lots fronting on the greenway must connect to the sidewalk via a minimum 5-foot-wide concrete sidewalk
o All lots fronting on the greenway will have a 5’ concrete sidewalk that
connects to the trail. This provision is included in the Parks Plan.
Plat Correction:
• Please adjust scale to state what scale it is in (i.e. 1” = 20’)
o The scale has been shown on both preliminary plat sheets.

RE: Response to City Comments – The Parklands at Village Downtown Subdivision
Preliminary Plat Application (#17385) Ms. Jadin:
This letter is to provide a narrative response to the City comments from March 14, 2018:
Comments: Dear Mr. Hausauer:
The above-referenced subdivision preliminary plat application was first received by the Planning Division on August 2, 2017 and proposed 16 residential lots. Revisions were submitted February 15, 2018 which depict a new lot configuration with 8 residential lots.
The revisions submitted were reviewed in accordance with the submittal checklists and Title 38 of
the Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) and the application has been deem inadequate for continued review. The following items require corrections:
1. The applicant response to Engineering item #8 from the DRC Comment Memo issued on
August 30, 2017 states that the application is based on the FEMA map revisions expected later
this year. Because the city floodplain administrator must review for compliance with the current floodplain map, Community Development requires that the applicants wait to resubmit until the maps are adopted or meet the current requirements.
• The 100-year floodplain shown on the preliminary plat map is from the current
floodplain map (Firm Panel 30031C0817D). A floodplain exhibit map has been included in Appendix H which shows the shows the floodplain boundary per the Firm Panel and analyzes the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) against the actual ground
elevations within the development. The exhibit shows that the proposed lots are
outside of the current floodplain map (per Firm Panel) and are further from the 100-
year floodplain when the BFE is applied to actual ground elevations.

RE: Response to DRC Comments – Parklands at Village Downtown Major Subdivision
Preliminary Plat (#18273) Ms. Rosenberg:
This letter is to provide a narrative response to the DRC comments from October 2017, 2018:
Project Description: A Subdivision Preliminary Plat application to create a Major Subdivision with 10 residential lots (9 designated for single-household dwellings, 1 for a multi-household dwelling), 1 city park, and 1 common open space lot on 4.6558 acres. During pre-application review, the DRC granted waivers of preliminary plat supplements for Section 38.41.060.A.8. Agriculture and A.19. Miscellaneous. All other supplements are required.
Project Location: Property is located at the southeast side of the terminus of Village Downtown Blvd and legally described as Lot 4A, Minor Sub 344B, NW1/4, Section 8, T2S, R5E, PMM, City of Bozeman, Gallatin County, Montana. The City of Bozeman Department of Community Development has considered the subdivision as described above. As a result of staff review, the application is deemed
inadequate and the following comments are provided for consideration:
SECTION 2 – RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL 1.

5. BMC 38.410.130 states: Prior to a final approval of all development reviewed as a site plan, conditional use permit, planned unit development, or subdivision and prior to an annexation of any land, one of the following must occur: Payment must be made to the city of a payment-in-lieu of water rights, calculated based on the annual demand for volume of water the development will require multiplied by the most current annual unit price. a) The applicant must pay CIL of water rights due prior to final plat approval.
CILWR will be paid prior to final plat approval. 6. BMC 38.400.010.A.8 states: To facilitate traffic movement, the provision of emergency services and the placement of utility easements, all developments shall be provided with a second means of access. If, in the judgment of the development review committee (DRC), a second dedicated right-of-way cannot be provided for reasons of topography or other physical conditions, the developer shall provide an emergency access, built to the standards detailed in these regulations. a) The arrangement of the lots and alley must be done in such a way to facilitate emergency vehicle access and turnaround, the proposed alley exceeds a 150 feet without a turnaround. The applicant must contact the COB Fire Department and ensure emergency vehicle access is approved. If the wetland lot is deed restricted Front Street may be terminated at the alleyway to eliminate this correction. The sidewalk on Front Street though must continue on to the Linear Park.
The wetland lot is deed restricted and Front Street has been terminated at
the alley. Therefore, this comment is no longer applicable. 7. BMC 38.400.050.A.1 states: All streets and roads providing access to, and within, the proposed development shall meet the following standards: 1. Right-of-way width and construction standards contained in this chapter, the most recently adopted long range transportation plan, the City of Bozeman Design Standards and Specifications Policy, and the City of Bozeman Modifications to Montana Public Works Standard Specifications shall apply. a) A standard intersection design must be used for the intersection of Front St and Village Downtown Blvd. The proposed intersection must be reconfigured. The applicant must incorporate the street design for Front Street and shared use path identified on the City of Bozeman Transportation Master Plan into the intersection design. The shared use path must extend along Blocks 1 and 2 to connect with the sidewalk along the greenway corridor. b) The shared use path extending from Front Street along the greenway corridor must be concrete designed to support traffic loading from the City’s vactor trucks. The section
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
must be looped to connect back to a traveled way and meet the turning radiuses of the City vactor truck. The path must be constructed with the subdivision improvements. c) With the proposed layout the applicant must extend Front Street to the property boundary with Lot D to provide access to the lot, the green space/green, and the stormwater facilities, unless the determination can be made that the Lot D will never be developed. d) A drive approach and lockable service gate must be installed at the end of Front Street to allow for the access of the City sewer maintenance vehicles. e) The drive access from the proposed alley on must be installed according to COB MMPWSS No. 02529-7A. This requirement must be indicated on the plans prior to preliminary plat approval.
The applicant wishes to wrap the proposed alley around and connect to the existing cul-de-sac. When Front Street is improved to the north, the existing cul-de-sac will be removed and a standard street intersection will
be installed.
The 12’ shared use path will be concrete and designed for traffic loading.
A turnaround has been added to allow for City vactor trucks to turn around
rather than looping the path. This is to avoid having a 12’ wide path in the
vicinity of the steep slopes along the southern boundary line.
Lot D1-A is deed restricted and will never be developed.
A lockable gate has been added at the beginning of the 12’ shared use path.
All alley approaches will be installed per COB standards. This has been noted on the preliminary plat. 8. BMC 38.540.020.M states: Snow removal storage areas shall be provided sufficient to store snow accumulation on site. Such areas shall not cause unsafe ingress/egress to the parking areas, shall not cause snow to be deposited on public rights-of-way, shall not include areas provided for required parking access and spaces, and shall not be placed in such a manner as to damage landscaping. a) Adequate snow storage must designated for all public and/or common space. If snow storage is proposed at the ends of the alley and/or Front Street, snow storage easements must be executed and recorded with the county clerk and recorder prior to preliminary plat approval.
Adequate snow storage has been provided along the 12’ all-weather road
as well as in the Common Open Space lot. 9. BMC Section 38.600.130.C states: The city floodplain administrator is appointed with the authority to review floodplain development permit applications, proposed uses and construction to determine compliance with these regulations. The city floodplain

RE: Response to DRC Comments – Parklands at Village Downtown Major Subdivision
Preliminary Plat (#19135)
Mr. Saunders:
This letter is to provide a narrative response to the DRC comments from May 7, 2019:
Project Description: A Subdivision Preliminary Plat application to create a Major
Subdivision with 10 residential lots (9 designated for single-household dwellings, 1 for a
multi-household dwelling), 1 city park, and 1 common open space lot on 4.6558 acres.
During pre-application review, the DRC granted waivers of preliminary plat supplements
for Section 38.41.060.A.8. Agriculture and A.19. Miscellaneous. All other supplements are
required.
Project Location: Property is located at the southeast side of the terminus of Village
Downtown Blvd and legally described as Lot 4A, Minor Sub 344B, NW1/4, Section 8, T2S,
R5E, PMM, City of Bozeman, Gallatin County, Montana.
SECTION 3 – REQUIRED CODE CORRECTIONS
Planning Division, Chris Saunders, csaunders@bozeman.net, 406‐582‐2260
1. The intersection of Front Street and Village Downtown Boulevard does not meet design
standards.
A standard alley approach off of the existing Village Downtown Boulevard
is proposed similar to the existing alley accesses off of Village Crossing
Way within the Village Downtown. This layout was previously determined
under coordination with the City Planning and Engineering Departments
as Front Street will not be extended to the southeast as this property (Tract
D1‐A) will never be developed as it is now a perpetual wetland Park owned
by the Sacajawea Audubon Society. Comment 7.c from the DRC comments
on the Parklands Subdivision (dated 10/17/2018) state “with the
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
proposed layout the applicant must extend Front Street to the property
boundary with Lot D to provide access to the lot…unless the determination
can be made that the Lot D will never be developed.” Tract D1‐A (Lot D)
will never be developed; therefore, Front Street is not necessary in this
location. The Village Downtown Boulevard cul‐de‐sac will remain as is and
the proposed alley approach will only serve the Parklands development.
2. Completion of improvements certificate needs signature from both land owners.
The Certificate of Improvements now has signature blocks for both land
owners. Signatures will be obtained prior to final plat approval.
3. Certificate of surveyor references five year range for the survey work. That is an
unusually long period. Please confirm that this is an acceptable time frame for
surveying standards.
The Certificate of Surveyor has been updated to reflect the proper time
frame.
4. Certificate of transfer of ownership and completion of non-public improvements –
change reference to “Common Open Space A” in first line.
This reference has been changes to read “Common Open Space A” in the
Certificate of Transfer of Ownership.
5. Certificate of dedication to be revised so maintenance of the alley is an HOA
responsibility.
The mention of the alley has been removed from the Certificate of
Dedication, which was dedicating the alley maintenance to the City. The
alley will be maintained by the HOA.
6. Revise note 7 on the Conditions of Approval sheet to past tense since the approval
happened in the past and is being restated for clarity, the note is note need at all.
This note has been removed from the Conditions of Approval sheet.
7. Conditions of Approval sheet note 8: Per ARM 24.183.1107(4)(f) a note is needed to
say where the plans and specification for public infrastructure will be stored.
A note has been added on the Conditions of Approval sheet stating that the
plans and specifications for public infrastructure will be stored at the City
engineering office.
8. Utility easements are not clearly shown along each lot and there is a floating utility
reference in the multihome lot that needs to be removed or relocated to make sense.
Notes on sheet 1 and sheet 2 don’t agree on easement size.
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
The utility easements have been clearly shown and labelled. All labels are
consistent between sheets 1 and 2.
9. The connecting path between the linear park and the Village Downtown Boulevard is
located within an easement west of the subdivision. Due to slopes, a retaining wall is
proposed. Please confirm that the intended design can be constructed wholly within
the existing easement of demonstrate that a larger easement can be provided to contain
the construction extent.
There is 16.5’ buffer between the edge of the pathway and the edge of the
25’ easement. This is more than enough space to provide the engineered
retaining wall without having to expand the easement.
Future Impact Fees - Please note that future building permit applications will require
payment of the required transportation, water, sewer and fire impact fees according to the
City of Bozeman adopted impact fee schedule in place at the time of building permit
issuance. If you desire an estimate of the required impact fees according to current rates
please contact the Department of Community Development and/or visit.
If you require any further information, please give me a call at (406) 587-1115.

RE: Response to DRC Comments – Parklands at Village Downtown Major Subdivision
Preliminary Plat (#17385) Ms. Jadin:
This letter is to provide a narrative response to the DRC comments from August 30, 2017:
Project Description: A Subdivision Preliminary Plat application to create a Major Subdivision with 16 residential lots (7 designated for two-household dwellings, 1 for a three-household dwelling and 8 for single-household dwellings), 1 city park, and 1 restricted lot on 11.84 acres. During pre-application review, the DRC granted waivers of preliminary plat supplements for Section 38.41.060.A.8. Agriculture and A.19. Miscellaneous. All other supplements are required.
Project Location: Property is located at the southeast side of the terminus of Village Downtown Blvd and legally described as Lot 4, Minor Sub 344B, NW1/4, Section 8, T2S, R5E, PMM, City of Bozeman, Gallatin County, Montana. The City of Bozeman Department of Community Development has considered the subdivision as described above. As a result of staff review, the application is deemed
inadequate and the following comments are provided for consideration:
CODE PROVISIONS: 1. Affordable housing plan is inadequate. A three-household dwelling on one lot does not comply with the affordable housing Section 38.43.
With the new subdivision configuration, no affordable housing is required per BMC Section 38.43.030.A.1. 2. The agency letters provided are not adequate. Letters must be relevant to the application for which the subdivision is made (those submitted are over 10 years old for a different project).
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
Impact letters were sent out to all agencies prior to the original preliminary plat submittal (August 2017). The old impact letters from the original Village Downtown PUD Subdivision (2003) were included as a
historical reference. The only agencies that responded to the letters sent
out were the Bozeman School District and the United States Postal Service.
Their responses are included with the submittal.
PRELIMINARY PLAT SPECIFIC COMMENTS: 1. In response to pre-app comment #1, the applicant’s statement that permission will be obtained prior to final plat is not sufficient. - The President of the HOA is required to be a co-applicant of the preliminary plat application. - An undeveloped lot may not include improvements such as a detention pond. Please consider creating a separate lot for the detention pond.
The president of the HOA is included as a co-applicant. No improvements are proposed on the undeveloped lot (Lot 10) as the proposed reformed pond is located entirely within the Common Open
Space A with the new subdivision configuration. 2. The subdivision proposes to provide legal and physical access via the option described in Section 38.24.090.B.2.c: 25 feet of frontage on an improved alley and a greenway corridor or trail corridor with public access. In order to meet the requirements of Section 38.24.080 for sidewalks: a. - Requirement met. b. All lots fronting on the greenway must connect to the sidewalk via a minimum 3-foot-wide concrete sidewalk - With proposal to construct sidewalks as houses are built, what mechanism is proposed for guarantee of developer installation? c. The greenway corridor sidewalk must connect to Village Downtown Boulevard via the open space/alley connection described above in item #2 and via a sidewalk along Front Street. - The proposal addresses this comment; however, the sidewalk crosses the corner of
lot 8. A public access easement is required or the property line must be relocated.
All lots fronting the greenway will connect to the sidewalk via a 3’
concrete sidewalk. The greenway is connected to Village Downtown
Boulevard and the encroachment in Lot 8 has been removed with the
new configuration.
3. Section 38.30.060. – Regulated activities. Proposed regulated activities within a wetland require approval by the Wetlands Review Board in accordance with Sec. 38.30.070.
Civil/Structural Engineering and Surveying
- The information submitted for the wetland review is insufficient. Additional information is required. Please see attached letter from RESPEC dated August 21, 2017. - In addition, the wetland and watercourse worksheet prepared by TerraQuatic is
incomplete and insufficient. Please fully address 38.30.060-080. Items indicated in
the Wetland and Watercourse Regulations worksheet for City of Bozeman
completion must be completed by the applicant. - As required in Section 38.41.020.A.5., provide the Federal Clean Water Act Permit
(404 Permit) administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency. Due to the extent of the proposed impacts to wetlands, the City will consider the application inadequate for further review until the permit has been issued and the City can understand how the wetlands will be mitigated and/or how impacts were avoided. Without this information the City may not be able to determine and/or make findings for mitigation of the impacts as required by Section 38.03.040.A.5.d. - Condition of approval #5. for Minor Subdivision 344 which created this lot specifies “Wetlands on the subject property should be protected to the greatest extent possible. Wetland protection will significantly add to the quality of the proposed
trail corridors and contribute immensely as important wildlife habitat and open
space for the community“. Please provide more information on how this condition
was satisfied for this lot and the subdivision in particular and if those strategies
and restrictions are still in place. - Because of the noted high quality wetlands in the vicinity, please carefully review
the intent and purpose of Section 38.30 BMC and consider development strategies
and design elements to mitigate impacts to the wetlands. Where impacts to wetlands cannot be avoided, please consider mitigating for those impacts either onsite or in close proximity to the project location in order to enhance and provide the ecological functions that wetlands perform.
o With the new information regarding the wetlands, a possible development strategy is to consider rezoning the property to have a lower required density
With the new subdivision configuration, a conscious effort was made to
reduce wetland impacts. The total acreage of disturbed wetlands was
reduced by 1.12 acres with the new subdivision configuration. A 404
Army Corps permit is being filed for the project and will be completed
prior to starting construction. 4. Lot D shall be called lot 9 of Block 2 as the restricted development lot. Add specific notation on the lot itself: “Lot development subject to further subdivision review.”
Lot D has been renamed Lot 10 and the note “Lot Development Subject to
Further Subdivision Review” has been added. It is named Lot 10 because with the new subdivision configuration, there are 9 lots fronting the Alley within Block 2. 5. Section 38.41.030.A. – Subdivision preapplication plan required materials.

RE: Parklands at Village Downtown Major Subdivision (narrative response to pre-application comments received 5-24-17)
Dear Addi,
PRELIMINARY PLAT SPECIFIC COMMENTS:
1. Common Area #2 of Minor Subdivision 344 is not shown on the proposed plat. Please
clarify the ownership and purpose of Common Area #2 and how it has been provided elsewhere. If owned by Village Downtown Homeowners Association, they may need to be party to preliminary plat.
Previous common area #2 is now shown on the plat. This is under ownership by the Village
Downtown HOA. The purpose of this open space was for the existing detention pond. The new detention pond is proposed to be reformed within Common Open Space A with this project; the old pond will be reformed to this location so the old common area #2 will no longer be required.
All necessary permission from the HOA will be obtained prior to final plat.
2. Section 38.23.040.B. Block Length. The proposed subdivision results in a block length greater than the maximum 400 feet in length. OS1 must be a minimum of 30 feet in width with minimum 5-foot-wide concrete sidewalk. A sidewalk must extend along
alley to Village Downtown Boulevard.
Block 1 is less than 400’ with the new configuration. The new Unified Development Code states that block lengths may be longer than 400 feet if they are adjacent to parks or open space. Block 2 exceeds 400’ in length, however there is a park that runs along the back side of every lot within
the block, which satisfies the language of the new code.
3. The subdivision proposes to provide legal and physical access via the option described in Section 38.24.090.B.2.c: 25 feet of frontage on an improved alley and a greenway corridor or trail corridor with public access. In order to meet the requirements of
Section 38.24.080 for sidewalks:
a. The greenway must have a minimum 5-foot-wide concrete sidewalk; A sidewalk is now shown b. All lots fronting on the greenway must connect to the sidewalk via a
minimum 3-foot-wide concrete sidewalk; and These will be required to connect the lots to the greenway sidewalk when houses are constructed. We don’t want to show them on the plat without
having established building layouts for these lots as the 3’ walkway should align with the house
entryway.
c. The greenway corridor sidewalk must connect to Village Downtown
Boulevard via the open space/alley connection described above in item #2
and via a sidewalk along Front Street. All these connection points are now established on the
updated plat. Advisory Comment: Connection from the greenway corridor to the linear park south of the property may be provided via the access to sanitary sewer
manhole required in Engineering Comment #12 below and a gravel fines trail
within a 25-foot-wide public trail easement.
4. The remainder Lot D must be platted as an undevelopable lot with the following language placed on the undevelopable lot of the final plat: “Lot development subject to further subdivision review.”
No public improvements shall be required for the undevelopable lot until it is
subdivided as a lot not subject to this restriction. This language must be placed on the
face of the plat or in a separately executed document to be recorded with the final plat: “NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to all potential purchasers of Lot ________ of ________________, City of Bozeman, Gallatin County, Montana, that the final plat of
the subdivision was approved by the Bozeman City Commission without
completion of on and off site improvements required under the Bozeman
Municipal Code, as is allowed in Chapter 38.39 of the Bozeman Municipal Code. As such, this Restriction is filed with the final plat that stipulates that any use of this lot is subject to further subdivision, and no development of this lot shall
occur until all on and off site improvements are completed as required under
the Bozeman Municipal Code. THREREFORE, BE ADVISED, that Building
Permits will not be issued for Lot _______, of the _______________ Subdivision, City of Bozeman, Gallatin County, Montana until all required on and off site
improvements are completed and accepted by the City of Bozeman. No
building structure requiring water or sewer facilities shall be utilized on this
lot until this restriction is lifted. This restriction runs with the land and is
revocable only by further subdivision or the written consent of the City of Bozeman.” The above statement has been added to the plat.
5. Section 38.30.060. – Regulated activities. Proposed regulated activities within a
wetland require approval by the Wetlands Review Board in accordance with Sec.
38.30.070.
6. Section 38.41.030.A. – Subdivision preapplication plan required materials. • 2. Topographic features. Provide topographic features as required, particularly
any permits listed in Section 38.41.020.
• 10. Parks and recreation facilities. Provide a proposal to meet the requirements of
Section 38.27.020 for parks and recreation based on 24 units. Park calculations are included on the plat, public park dedication provided exceeds the requirement with the 20 dwelling units proposed with this project. Advisory Comments: Pathways in watercourse or wetland setbacks may be dedicated
to the city, although not counted toward the parkland dedication requirement. Cash- in-lieu is not automatically credited for trails—the proposal will be reviewed by the
RPAB Subdivision Review Committee. If a public trail easement is provided within
private open space, it needs to be maintained by the HOA and the full CIL amount
would be owed. • 12. Affordable Housing. Describe how the requirements of Chapter 38, Article 43
are satisfied. No affordable housing is proposed with the new subdivision configuration per BMC
Section 38.43.030.A.1 because only 9 single-household (market rate) homes are proposed.
ENGINEERING COMMENTS:
1. A Water and Sewer Easement will be needed for the section of the sewer that leaves
the alley ROW and connects with the existing manhole northwest of the cul-de-sac. A water and
sewer easement is now shown on the plat 2. The applicant must contact the City Floodplain Administrator, Brian Heaston, to review
floodplain issues at this site. Brian Heaston was contacted and his response is included with this
submittal. His assessment has also been incorporated into the floodplain section of the EA.
3. As the proposed subdivision is located within a ½ mile of an intersection with a Level of Service (LOS) rating below “C”, final plat approval will not be given until the LOS is improved or a waiver is granted per Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) Section
38.24.060.B.4. For the intersection of Highland and Main the applicate is recommended
to contact the Heebs project developer regarding an intersection LOS waiver.
A LOS waiver is included with this submittal. It is our understanding that the proposed intersection improvements are moving forward. A plan is in place and funding is secured. Negotiations are underway to secure the final portion of the easement needed from one of the
adjacent property owners.
4. A full local street ROW and street section will be required, in lieu of an alley from the cul-
da-sac along Lot 8 of Block 1 and 2 in order to access to Lot D along with the park/greenspace on the south side of Block 2. Front Street will be constructed as a full local street
section.
5. The size of the proposed sanitary sewer needs to be indicated. Per the City of Bozeman
(COB) Wastewater Facility Plan the line must be a minimum of 21-inches. The size is now indicated on the plat. 6. The wetlands delineation must be current and accurate per the Corps of Engineer
requirements.
The wetland delineation is current.
7. BMC Section 38.23.180 states: the transfer of water rights or the payment of cash-in-lieu (CIL) of water rights shall be provided. The applicate should contact Brian Heaston, with
the City of Bozeman Engineering Department, for determination of payment.
Brian has been contacted and his response is included with this submittal.
8. The proposed development falls within a known area of high groundwater. No crawl
spaces or basements may be constructed such that sump pumps are required to pump water from these spaces. Sump pumps are not allowed to be connected to the
sanitary sewer system. Sump pumps are also not allowed to be connected to the
drainage system unless capacity is designed into the drainage system to accept the pumped water. Water from sump pumps may not be discharged onto streets, such
as into the curb and gutters where they may create a safety hazard for pedestrians
and vehicles. 9. A stormwater drainage and treatment grading plan and maintenance plan for a system
designed to remove solids, silt, oils, grease, and other pollutants must be provided to
and approved with the preliminary plat application. The plan must demonstrate
adequate site drainage (including sufficient spot elevations), storm water detention/retention basin details (including basin sizing and discharge calculations, and discharge structure details), storm water discharge destination, and a storm water
maintenance plan.
A stormwater design report and maintenance plan is included with this submittal in Appendix K.
A detention pond is proposed. 10. The applicant must contact the Gallatin County Conservation District, Montana
Department of Environmental Quality, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding the
proposed project and any required permits (i.e., 310, 404, Turbidity exemption, etc.)
must be obtained by the applicant. Lynn Bacon is handling all permits related to wetland disturbances. The joint permit and wetland checklist is included in Appendix E.
11. The sanitary sewer main passing between the Lots 1 and 2 of Block 2 should be
alignment per COB Design Standards and Specifications Policy, to allow for water line
to be ran in parallel to allow for access to Lot D. This sewer main running between Lots 1 and 2 of Block 2 has been eliminated with the new subdivision configuration.
12. Access to sanitary sewer manholes must be provided via a minimum 12-foot wide all
weather surface where located outside of the street section. The 12-foot access road is shown on the plat. 13. The 8” dead-end water main between Lots 1 must end with a hydrant or a 2” blowoff per
the COB Design Standards. The dead end water main has been eliminated with the new
subdivision configuration.
14. Clarification is needed as to the extents of the proposed 25’ wide Public Trail Easement
along the southwest line of the subdivision. The trail easement has been clarified on the revised
plat.
15. The requested waiver for Geology/Soils/Slopes is not granted. The EA has been included with this submittal with the section, information is included on this topic.
16. BMC section 38.41.040.A.9 states: Ground Contours shall be provided for the tract

INTRODUCTION
The Parklands Subdivision project proposes to develop Lot 4A, Minor Subdivision 344B into 9
single-household lots, 1 multi-family lot, 1 park, 1 common open space and 1 remainder lot. The
property is located in the City of Bozeman and is zoned as R-4. There is an existing detention pond
at the east side of the cul-de-sac in existing Common Open Space #2. This pond will be reformed
within Common Open Space A provided to the east of the cul-de-sac of Village Downtown
Boulevard. The reformed detention pond provides 7,552 cubic feet of runoff storage and
discharges into the existing wetland area. Runoff overland flows from here into an existing
drainage ditch located east of Minor Subdivision 344B which drains into Story Ditch and
continues to flow to the northeast under the Montana Rail Link railroad bridge. Supporting
stormwater calculations are attached to this report.
STORM SEWER FACILITIES DESIGN
Storm sewer facilities were sized for the 25-yr storm using Manning’s Equation. For the inlet, the
contributing area, weighted C factor, and time of concentration were calculated. These values were
input into Manning’s Equation to check capacity and flow characteristics for inlets, storm drain
pipes, and curb gutters. All curbs are designed to maintain 0.15’ freeboard per C.O.B. Design
Manual Section IV.C.5. For the purposes of this report, each pipe section was named to match the
associated upstream structure. Pipe sizing calculations are included in Appendix C.
CONTRIBUTING DRAINAGE AREAS TO PROPOSED
The site was divided into two drainage basins as shown on the attached Drainage Area Map
included in Appendix A. All drainage from Drainage Areas 1 and 2 will be routed to the reformed
detention pond proposed with this project. A new outlet structure will be required with a weir slot
width of 3.5 inches. The weir is to be located 1’ above the bottom of the pond so that the first 0.5
inches of runoff is retained before the stormwater is discharged. The required stormwater
detention pond volume is 5,433 cubic feet, and the pond has been sized for 7,552 cubic feet of
storage. Drainage area calculations can be found in Appendix B and pond sizing calculations can
be found in Appendix D.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE FOR
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT FACILITIES
The Property Owners Association shall be responsible for the maintenance of the stormwater
drainage facilities within the Parklands Subdivision.
The following areas, facilities will be inspected and the identified deficiencies shall be corrected.
Clean-out must include the removal and legal disposal of any accumulated sediments and debris
from the entire stormwater management system. Storm Water Facilities:
1. Detention Ponds:
Inspect ponds annually and after major storms (following three days of dry weather after a storm event exceeding ¼ inch of precipitation.) and correct any identified deficiencies
to ensure that it is working in its intended fashion and that it is free of trash and debris.
Failure for water to percolate or pass through outlet structure within this time period
indicates clogging or poor-draining soils. Replace/repair as necessary. Remove and
properly dispose of any accumulated sediment or debris as needed. Inspect the embankments and drainage structures for settlement, slope erosion, and downstream
swamping.
Mow the embankment to control woody vegetation. Remove woody debris from the
bottom of the pond. Inspect for channelization at bottom of pond and remove any channels observed. Regrade as required if any channels are found that are not an element
of the original design. Remove grass clippings, litter, and debris from ponds.
2. Detention Pond Outlet Structures:
Inspect Outlet Control Structures 2 times per year (preferably in spring and fall) to ensure that these structures are working in their intended fashion, free of debris and that the
orifice and trash racks are unobstructed from trash and debris. Clean structures when
sediment depths accumulate to the invert of outlet or to the bottom of the inlet weir.
Remove floating debris and hydrocarbons if observed at the time of the inspection.
3. Storm Drainage Piping and Manholes Inspect pipe system 2 times per year (preferably in Spring and Fall) via manhole cover
access into structures. Clean system when sediment depth reaches the bottom of inlet and
outlet piping. Remove and dispose of any sediments or debris (see note at the bottom of
page 2 for further detail on sediment disposal). Inspect pipe for any obstruction and remove obstructions immediately. Repair/replace damaged pipes and manholes if
observed.
4. Vegetated Areas:
Inspect slopes and embankments early in the growing season to identify active or potential erosion problems. Replant bare areas or areas with sparse growth. Where rill
erosion is evident, armor the area with an appropriate lining or divert the erosive flows to
on-site areas able to withstand the concentrated flows. The facilities will be inspected
after major storms and any identified deficiencies will be corrected. 5. Ditches, Swales, Stormwater Chases and other Open Stormwater Channels: Inspect 2 times per year (preferably in Spring and Fall) to ensure they are working in
their intended fashion and that they are free of sediment and debris. Remove any
obstructions to flow, including accumulated sediments and debris and vegetated growth. Repair any erosion of the ditch lining. Vegetated ditches will be mowed at least annually or otherwise maintained to control the growth of woody vegetation and maintain flow
capacity. Any woody vegetation growing through riprap linings must also be removed.
Repair any slumping side slopes as soon as practicable. If the ditch has a riprap lining,
replace riprap on areas where any underlying filter fabric or underdrain gravel is showing through the stone or where stones have dislodged. Correct any erosion of the channel's bottom or side slopes. The facilities will be inspected after major storms and any
identified deficiencies will be corrected. For concrete stormwater chase structures with
metal “no slip” cover. Inspect covers to ensure metal edges aren’t protruding above the
concrete surface. Correct deficiencies if found. Repair damaged or badly cracked stormwater chases if observed.
Standard Maintenance Summary:
1. Remove sediment and oil/grease from retention ponds. 2. Inspect and remove debris from drainage swales, catch basins, and detention ponds. 3. Monitor health of vegetation and revegetate as necessary to maintain full vegetative
cover.
4. Inspect for the following issues: differential accumulation of sediment, drain time, signs of
petroleum hydrocarbon contamination (odors, oil sheen in pond water), standing water, trash and debris blockages.
Note on sediment disposal:
In most cases, sediment from a detention pond does not contain toxins at levels posing a hazardous
concern. However, sediments should be tested for toxicants in compliance with current disposal requirements and if land uses in the drainage area include commercial or industrial zones, or if visual or olfactory indications of pollution are noticed. Sediments containing high levels of
pollutants should be disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations and the potential
sources of contamination should be investigated and contamination practices terminated.

RE:The Parklands Subdivision at Village Downtown -Waiver Request –Intersection
Level of Service
Dear Mr.Woolard:
A waiver is requested from Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) Section 38.24.060.B.4 for the East
Main Street and Highland Boulevard intersection for the Parklands Subdivision. The referenced
code section requires that all intersections with arterial and collector streets operate at a
minimum level of service (LOS) “C” for the design period of the development, which is a
minimum of 15 years following application approval.This intersection is currently operating at a
LOS of “B” for the AM Peak Hour and LOS of “D” for the PM Peak Hour conditions.
The above-referenced section allows the review authority to grant a waiver from a LOS of less
than “C” if it is determined that:
1.Granting of a waiver from the level of service for the intersection would not be contrary
to public health and safety and is in the public interest.
The proposed development will have minimal effects to the East Main/Highland
intersection. The subject intersection is currently signalized and is scheduled to be
improved to reduce traffic delays at the intersection.
2.Improvements to the intersection to raise the overall level of service to a “C” or better are
currently scheduled for commencement of construction within three years as shown on
the most recently adopted transportation capital improvement plan.
The East Main/Highland intersection is on the Capital Improvement Plan and is
scheduled for fiscal year 2018.
3.All right-of-way necessary for the required intersection improvements have been
obtained by the City or the Montana Department of Transportation.
All right-of-way and right-of-way easements necessary for the required intersection
improvements have been obtained.
WATER AND SEWER DESIGN REPORT
THE PARKLANDS SUBDIVISION
AT THE VILLAGE DOWNTOWN PUD
Prepared for:
Village Investment Group
101 E. Main Street, Suite D
Bozeman, MT 59715
Prepared by:
Project Number: 170090
May 2018
Design Report - Page 2 of 6
INTRODUCTION
The Parklands Subdivision project is a major subdivision that proposes to create 1 multi-household
lot, 9 single-household lots, 1 park, and 1 common open space. For the purpose of this report, the
multi-family lot was assessed at 11 dwelling units to meet the 8 dwelling units per acre net
residential density. Water for domestic use and fire protection will be provided by connections to
the City of Bozeman water system.
PROPOSED WATER LAYOUT AND EXISTING FACILITIES
There is an existing 8” water main in Village Downtown Boulevard running under the north side
of the roadway. The existing 8” main will be live tapped on the north end and the south side of
the project. A new 8” water main will loop down Front Street and between Block 1 and Block 2
before tying in to the existing water main in Village Downtown Boulevard. Two existing
hydrants: #1857 and #1858 will service Block 1 and two additional hydrants will be installed
with this project to service Block 2. One new hydrant is proposed at the intersection of Alley and
Front Street and another is proposed within the Alley. A valve will be located at Front St. and the
Alley intersection which will allow the new hydrants to be isolated.
WATER SYSTEM DESIGN
A WaterCAD analysis is enclosed at the end of the report analyzing the existing 8-inch water main
extension proposed with this project. The connection to the existing system was modeled as a
pump curve using data obtained from the City of Bozeman Water Department. The hydrant data
used was for hydrant #5, located at East Mendenhall Street and North Broadway Avenue. The flow
test was conducted for the original Village Downtown PUD is 2002 and as such is older water
system data. It is assumed that this hydrant flow data is still a reasonable representation of site
conditions. The original pump curve from the Village Downtown PUD water design report was
used at the connectin point to model the existing system. The following equation based off of the
Hazen Williams method is used to generate the pump curve:
Q = Qf x ((Ps - P) / (Ps - Pr))0.54
Where: Q = flow predicted at desired residual pressure, Qf = total flow measured during test, Pr=
Design Report - Page 3 of 6
residual pressure during test, Ps = static pressure and P = residual pressure at the desired flow rate.
Ps = 125 PSI
Pr = 110 PSI
Qf = 1,635 GPM
In the model, the pump is connected to a reservoir which acts as a source of water. The elevation
of the reservoir is fixed at the elevation of the pump, which is also equivalent to the elevation of
the tie-in point. The reservoir does not create any head on the system; the head is generated entirely
by the pumps. The input data and the pump curves are included at the end of the report. The pump
curve table includes all calculations and equations used in determining flow characteristics at the
connection point. A C-factor of 130 and 80 were chosen for ductile iron pipe and cast iron pipe,
respectively. The C-factor of 80 was chosen for cast iron due to its age. Cast iron pipe typically
has a higher friction loss than ductile iron, especially with older pipe.
DEMAND FORECASTING
A water distribution model was created using WaterCAD Version 10.01.00.72 for demand
forecasting and describing domestic and fire protection requirements. In order to model the system,
each junction node of the water distribution system was assessed a demand based on its service
area. The table shown below quantifies the demands placed at the junction nodes and calculates
the demands for Average Day, Maximum Day and Peak Hour within the subdivision. The peaking
factor for each case is 1, 2.3 and 3.0 respectively.
Residential Units:
Average Daily Residential Usage = 170 gallons per capita per day
Average Population Density = 2.11 persons/dwelling unit
Minimum Fire Hydrant Flow = 1,500 gpm
Residual Pressure Required = 20 psi for Fire Flow
Average Day Demand (Peaking Factor = 1)
Maximum Day Demand (Peaking Factor = 2.3)
Maximum Hour Demand (Peaking Factor = 3.0)
Design Report - Page 4 of 6
Residential Water Demands (Junction 57 – Lot 1, Block 1 and Lots 1-9, Block 2)
Average Day Demand = 20 d.u. x 2.11 persons/d.u. x 170 gpcpd = 7,174 gpd = 4.98 gpm
Maximum Day Demand = 5.0 gpm x 2.3 = 11.45 gpm
Peak Hour Demand = 5.0 gpm x 3.0 = 14.94 gpm

CONCLUSIONS
The 8-inch DIP water main does provide adequate capacity with regards to the Peak Hour
Demands. The flows and pressures within the system for the Peak Hour Demands were generated
with the WaterCAD program and can be found at the end of the report.
The capacity of the system to meet fire flow requirements was tested by running a steady state fire
flow analysis for all junctions at fire hydrant locations. The model shows that existing water system
will satisfy fire flow constraints (residual pressure > 20 psi, flow rate > 1500 gpm), while providing
service to the buildings at peak hour. The results of the analysis at peak hourly flow are given at
the end of the report.
SEWER SYSTEM
An existing 12” asbestos cement sewer main runs from north to south through the proposed
Parklands Subdivision. This existing gravity interceptor line is referred to as the Front Street
Interceptor in the 2015 Wastewater Facility plan and is indicated as a near-term improvement. This
sanitary sewer main will be relocated with this project and the main will be upgraded to a 21” PVC
SDR 35 main. The new main size was determined based on the City of Bozeman Capital
Improvements Plan recommended upgrades to the existing system. The existing 12” asbestos
Design Report - Page 5 of 6
cement main will be replaced downstream of existing manhole D0419 installed with SID 425. At
this location, a new 60” sanitary sewer manhole will be installed and the new gravity main will
run northeast to future Front Street. From here, the main will head northwest through the future
Front Street right-of-way and tie back in to the existing sanitary sewer manhole D0421 installed
with SID 425 north of Village Downtown Boulevard.
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
The flow rates used herein are according to Shawn Kohtz of the City of Bozeman Engineering
Department. He has stated that the City Design Standards and Specifications Policy will be updated
to change the standard from 89 gpcd with an occupancy of 2.11 people per unit to 65 gpcd with an
occupancy of 2.17 people per unit. The peaking factor for the design area is determined by figuring
the equivalent population and inserting the population into the Harmon Formula.
Using the city average of 2.17 persons per household, the equivalent is calculated.
Sewer Flows from Parklands Subdivision:
Equivalent Population = (2.17 persons/dwelling unit)(20 units) = 43.40 persons
Harmon Formula: Peaking Factor = (18 + P0.5)/(4 + P0.5)
where: P = Population in thousands
Peaking Factor = (18 + 0.049910.5)/(4 + 0.049910.5)
Peaking Factor = 4.33
Assumed infiltration rate = 150 gallons/acre/day = 150 (11.84 acres) = 1776 gal/day
The peak flow rate is calculated by multiplying the City's design generation rate of 65 gallons per
capita per day by the population, multiplying by the peaking factor, and adding the infiltration rate:
Peak Flow Rate = 65 gpcpd (43.40 persons) (4.33) + 1776 gpd= 13990.93 gpd
= 9.72 gpm
(0.0217 cfs)
The capacity of a 21-inch main is checked using Manning’s Equation:
Design Report - Page 6 of 6
Qfull = (1.486/n)AR2/3S1/2
For the 21-inch main:
Manning's n = 0.013 for PVC Pipe
Minimum Slope = 0.004 ft/ft
A = area = (3.14/4)d 2 = (3.14/4)(21/12)2 = 2.404 ft2
P = perimeter = 2(3.14)r = 2(3.14)(10.5/12) = 5.495 ft
R = hydraulic radius = A/P = 2.404/5.495 = 0.4375 ft
R2/3 = 0.5763 ft
S = 0.004 ft/ft
S1/2 = 0.0632 ft/ft
Qfull = (1.486/0.013)(2.404)(0.5763)(0.0632) = 10.01 cfs
The 2015 Wastewater Facility plan indicates that the existing Front Street Interceptor in the project
vicinity is flowing at 50-75% of maximum depth. The current flow rate in the existing 12” asbestos
cement main at this depth is calculated below from the online Haws-EDC calculator:
Based on these calculations, the 21-inch sewer line is more than adequate to carry the additional
design flows created by this subdivision.

RE: The Village Investment Group Parklands at Village Downtown Section 404 Application Addendum (Corps No. NWO-2015-01400) ______________________________________________________________________________
Dear Tim,
Enclosed is a Section 404 Addendum Application for the Parklands at Village Downtown (NWNW Section 8, T2S, R6E). The proposed project is located on the north side of the historic railroad berm. In 2015, you visited this wetland with an EPA Specialist and verified the wetland delineation boundaries.
The wetland report is currently in the COE files and is not enclosed with this application.
Proposed wetland impacts total 2.91 acres: 1.09 ac PEM (WL-1), 1.25 ac PSS (WL-3), and 0.50 ac PFO
(WL-4). Project impacts were minimized after the initial design from 3.97 acres to 2.91 acres; impacts to PSS and PFO resources were decreased approximately 30 and 60 percent, respectively.
The proposed Front Street Extension crosses a drainage channel (55 LF) within the PFO wetland feature. This drainage ditch feature was not identified during the 2015 delineation, as it is deep within the forested
wetland and escaped my attention. I would like to review this feature with you during your site visit to see if it warrants mitigation or if it is just a braided, slow moving drainage system that does not qualify as a stream channel (please bring mud boots). For your information, the Gallatin County Conservation
district does not consider this feature jurisdictional; i.e. impacts to the feature would not require a MT 310 Permit.
The Village Investment Group has pre-purchased 3.5 acres of wetland credit from the Upper Missouri Mitigation Bank; the proof of purchase document is enclosed for your review. We anticipate that the COE will analyze the application and determine final mitigation credit requirements. Also, please let me
know if the COE will send the application directly to the MTDEQ for 401 Certification or it we should apply directly for the certification.
Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this application and to schedule a site visit: (406) 580-6993 or lbacon@terraquaticllc.com. Thank you for your time and attention.
Sincerely,
Lynn M. Bacon, PWS/Wildlife Biologist
