EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Unresolved Issues
If the Planned Unit Development (PUD) and associated relaxations are not approved, then the
conditions and findings of this report will need to be modified. The analysis summarized in this
report assumed approval of the requested relaxations. Staff has recommended approval of the
PUD and associated relaxations.
Project Summary
This report is based on the application materials submitted and any public comment received to
date.
This subdivision is associated with a separate PUD application. The applicant asserts that the
overall outcome of the proposal is superior to what would be obtained from the application of
393
19373 The Nest Preliminary Plat Major Subdivision Page 2 of 24
the default R-3 district. The outcome will be a higher density residential infill project containing
13 lots with 45 residential dwelling units. There are four types of condo buildings in a mix of
two, three, and four unit clusters. The property is zoned R-3 Residential Medium Density and is
currently vacant.
The lot to be platted for residential development is surrounded by residential subdivisions to
the north, east, and south, and open space to the west. The site is accessed from Annie Street,
Durston Road, and Glenwood Avenue. An alternative street standard (woonerf) is proposed
throughout the development. Approval for the non-standard street and a total of 4 relaxations
from the City of Bozeman standards have been requested through the associated PUD.
There will also be two common open space lots totaling 1.805 acres, one which will adjoin the
neighboring open space to the west that is part of the Westbrook Subdivision. A portion of the
subject property is within the watercourse setback. Parkland dedication is not required with
this application as the platting of the Westbrook Subdivision satisfied Parkland requirements.
The Development Review Committee determined the application adequate for continued
review.
The Planning Board held a public hearing on the application on February 18, 2020. The Planning
Board is the advisory body to the City Commission on this subdivision application. The Planning
Board recommended approval 7:0 of the project with the conditions and code provisions
outlined in this staff report. No public comment was received.

applicable criteria contained within the staff report; or
4. Open and continue the public hearing on the application, with specific direction to staff
or the applicant to supply additional information or to address specific items. This
alternative is requested if the Board wishes to amend or add conditions of approval.

that application on November 28, 2018.
The initial preliminary plat application was received on August 13, 2019 and was deemed
inadequate for further review on October 2, 2019. A revised application was submitted on
October 29, 2019. The City reviewed the application through the Development Review
Committee and on December 6, 2019 the application was deemed inadequate for review.
Revised materials were received on December 12, 2019 and the City deemed the revised
materials acceptable for review. The Development Review Committee reviewed the application
materials and deemed the application adequate for review on December 31, 2019.
The hearings before the Planning Board and City Commission have been properly noticed as
required by the Bozeman UDC. Based on the recommendation of the DRC and other applicable
review agencies, as well as any public testimony received on the matter, the Planning Board
must forward a recommendation in a report to the City Commission who will make the final
decision on the applicant’s request.
The final decision for a Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat with less than 50 lots must be made
within 60 working days of the date it was deemed adequate. Pursuant to BMC 38.240.130 the
city commission shall approve, conditionally approve or deny the subdivision application by

On January 16, 2020, this major subdivision staff report was completed and forwarded with a
recommendation for consideration by the Planning Board.
4) Compliance with Chapter 38, BMC and other relevant regulations
Based on review of the Development Review Committee and the Department of Community
Development all applicable regulations are met if all code requirements are satisfied. Pertinent
code provisions and site specific requirements are included in this report for consideration in
Sections 3 and 4.
5) The provision of easements to and within the subdivision for the location and
installation of any necessary utilities

depicted and addressed on the final plat and in the final plat application. Public utilities will be
located within dedicated street right of ways.
6) The provision of legal and physical access to each parcel within the subdivision and the
notation of that access on the applicable plat and any instrument transferring the parcel
All of the proposed lots have frontage to public streets constructed to City standards or an
approved alternative with lot frontage as shown on the preliminary plat. In addition, pursuant
to Section 38.24.090.A, BMC, plats shall contain a statement requiring lot accesses to be built to
the standard contained in this section, the city design standards and specifications policy, and
the city modifications to state public works standard specifications.
The applicant has proposed use of an alternative “woonerfs” standard to provide legal and
physical access to some of the lots. A woonerf is a narrower street with a greater degree of
sharing of use of the same space by multiple types of users. Approval for the woonerf section
has been requested through the associated PUD which is the correct method. If the request is
not approved, then this criterion has not been met.
Primary Subdivision Review Criteria, Section 76-3-608
1) The effect on agriculture
The subject property is designated as a residential area according to the City of Bozeman
Community Plan. The area is zoned for residential development. There is no adverse effects on
agriculture.
2) The effect on Agricultural water user facilities
No agricultural water user facilities were discovered during review.
3) The effect on Local services
Water/Sewer –Municipal water and sewer mains exist in the adjacent street rights of way.
Internal water and sewer mains will be installed prior to final plat approval. The proposed water
mains will connect to the existing water mains in Durston Road, Glenwood Drive, and Annie
Street. Transfer of water rights or cash in lieu of water rights must be provided per code
provision in order to provide a long term water supply for the project. Sewer will be provided
through connection to the existing sanitary sewer collection system. The sewer system capacity
for this subdivision is allocated for 35 units out of the 45 units. Condition 19 ensures that the
remaining ten units will either receive proper sewer or a building restriction will be placed on
them.
Streets – The proposed subdivision has legal access onto Annie Street, Glenwood Drive, and
Durston Road. The proposed woonerf runs north-south through the property and will
complement the existing street grid structure. The woonerf’s right of way width is 34’ and is
410
19373 The Nest Preliminary Plat Major Subdivision Page 19 of 24
made up of a 5’ mountable concrete border, 17’ asphalt section, and a 2’ mountable concrete
border for a full width of 24’. There is an 8’ parking lane adjacent to the 2’ mountable concrete
border that will be utilized for parallel parking. Street lighting is a component of the required
street improvements. Road maintenance will be provided by the Westbrook Subdivision
Homeowner’s Association.
Street lighting is a component of the required street improvements. The applicant has
proposed a lighting plan to meet the requirement. A special improvement lighting district is
proposed to maintain these facilities. Conditions 16 and 17 ensures that the SILD will be formed
and effective before final plat and that the lighting will be LED which will reduce long term costs
and improve reliability for the residents.
Police/Fire – The area of the subdivision is within the service area of both these departments.
No concerns on service availability have been identified.
Stormwater - The subdivision will construct storm water control facilities to conform to
municipal code. Stormwater will be conveyed via surface flow to storm inlets, then
underground via storm drain piping to an existing stormwater pond in the northwest corner of
the site. Inspection of installed facilities prior to final plat will verify that standards have been
met. Maintenance of the storm water facilities is an obligation of the home owners association.
This responsibility is addressed in the covenants proposed with the subdivision which were
previously recorded and are applied to this development. Conditions 4 and 6 ensure that the
stormwater system is integrated with the individual developed lots to prevent flooding and
stagnant water.
Parklands – All parkland has been provided with the underlying subdivision.
4) The effect on the Natural environment
The subdivision has considerable wetlands and surface waters. An existing wetland associated
with Baxter Creek exists in the Common Open Space E of the Westbrook Subdivision directly
west of the Nest. A 30’ and 50’ watercourse setback encroaches onto the subject property. A
wetland delineation report was provided with the application. An additional 404 permit was not
required as the original 404 permit from 2008 still applies. No structures are to be constructed
within the watercourse setback and portions of the trail and sidewalk that connect to the
proposed houses will be permeable pavers. Condition 12 requires approval by the Engineering
Department of the final design of the permeable pavers. Appropriate watercourse setback
plantings will be established.
The site is in an area of high groundwater which may negatively impact future homes.
Adequate drainage plans are necessary to prevent the inappropriate transfer of stormwater
runoff onto adjacent private property. Condition 26 notifies owners of potential hazard of
groundwater and put a procedure in place to avoid in appropriate grade changes.
411
19373 The Nest Preliminary Plat Major Subdivision Page 20 of 24
5) The effect on Wildlife and wildlife habitat
No critical wildlife species of habitats are known to be found on this property. The site has been
substantially impacted already which has reduced wildlife habitat. The approved and
constructed 404 permit created additional wetlands which provide small animal and bird
habitat.
6) The effect on Public health and safety
With the recommended conditions of approval and required plat corrections, the subdivision
will not significantly impact public health and safety. The intent of the regulations in Chapter 38
of the Bozeman Municipal Code is to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. The
subdivision has been reviewed by the DRC which has determined that it is in general
compliance with the title with conditions and code provisions. Any other conditions deemed
necessary to ensure compliance have been noted throughout this staff report. Condition of
approval 1 requires full compliance with all applicable code requirements.
All subdivisions must be reviewed against the criteria listed in 76-3-608.3.b-d, Mont Code Ann.
and as a result, the Department of Community Development has reviewed this application
against the listed criteria and further provides the following summary for submittal materials
and requirements.
Preliminary Plat Supplements
A subdivision pre-application plan review was completed by the DRC in November 2018. With
the pre-application plan review application, waivers were requested from the materials
required in Section 38.220.060 “Additional Subdivision Preliminary Plat Supplements.” Some
items were not waived and all required materials have been addressed.
Staff offers the following summary comments on the supplemental information required with
Article 38.220.060, BMC.
38.220.060.A.1 Surface Water
The subdivision will not significantly impact surface water. Baxter Creek is located on the
existing open space lot part of the Westbrook Subdivision to the west of the Nest. Wetlands
exist on the open space lot and a 30’ and 50’ watercourse setback encroach into the property. A
wetland delineation report was performed in Winter 2018. A 404 permit was approved in 2008
and no updated permit was required. There is an existing stormwater pond in the northwest
corner of the site that is to remain with the development.
38.220.060.A.2 Floodplains
The DRC waived this supplement. No mapped 100-year floodplains impact the subject property.

The subdivision will improve the access to public lands. No know hazardous conditions exist on
the property.
414
19373 The Nest Preliminary Plat Major Subdivision Page 23 of 24
38.220.060.A.20 Affordable Housing
The subdivision does not meet the thresholds for requiring an affordable housing plan per BMC
38.380.030.A.1.
APPENDIX A –PROJECT SITE ZONING AND GROWTH POLICY
Zoning Designation and Land Uses: The property is zoned R-3 (Residential Medium Density
District). The intent of the R-3 residential medium density district is to provide for the
development of one- to five-household residential structures near service facilities within the
city. This purpose is accomplished by, providing for minimum lot sizes in developed areas
consistent with the established development patterns while providing greater flexibility for
clustering lots and mixing housing types in newly developed areas, providing for a variety of
housing types, including single household dwellings, two to four household dwellings, and
townhouses to serve the varied needs of households of different size, age and character, while
reducing the adverse effect of non-residential uses. Use of this zone is appropriate for areas
with good access to parks, community services and/or transit.
Adopted Growth Policy Designation: The Future Land Use Map of the Bozeman Community
Plan designates the subject property to develop as “Residential.” The “Residential”
classification designates places where the primary activity is urban density dwellings. Other
uses which complement residences are also acceptable such as parks, low intensity home based
occupations, fire stations, churches, and schools. High density residential areas should be
established in close proximity to commercial centers to facilitate the provision of services and
employment opportunities to persons without requiring the use of an automobile.
Implementation of this category by residential zoning should provide for and coordinate
intensive residential uses in proximity to commercial centers. The residential designation
indicates that it is expected that development will occur within municipal boundaries, which
may require annexation prior to development.
The dwelling unit density expected within this classification varies between 6 and 32 dwellings
per net acre. A higher density may be considered in some locations and circumstances. A
variety of housing types can be blended to achieve the desired density. Large areas of single
type housing are discouraged. In limited instances the strong presence of constraints and
natural features, such as floodplains, may cause an area to be designated for development at a
lower density than normally expected within this category. All residential housing should be
arranged with consideration of compatibility with adjacent development, natural constraints,
such as watercourses or steep slopes, and in a fashion which advances the overall goals of the
Bozeman growth policy. The residential designation is intended to provide the primary
locations for additional housing within the planning area.

APPENDIX B – NOTICING AND PUBLIC COMMENT
Notice was provided at least 15 and not more than 45 days prior to the Planning Board and City
Commission public hearings. BMC 38.220.420, Notice was provided by posting the site, mailing
by certified mail to adjacent property owners and by first class mail to all other owners within
200 feet on January 31, 2020, and by legal advertisement publication in the Bozeman Daily
Chronicle on February 16 and February 23, 2020. Content of the notice contained all elements
required by Article 38.220., BMC. No public comment has been received.
APPENDIX C – PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Nest Subdivision has been submitted in conjunction with a Planned Unit Development. The
subdivision of the property is proposed with 45 dwellings on 13 lots, common open space lots,
and a woonerf which are multi-user streets with narrow character. The property is adjacent to
existing open space part of the Westbrook Subdivision.

Introduction
The Nest entails a Planned Unit Development of 45 residential units on 13 Lots to be completed in one
Phase along with associated parking, trails, and site improvements. The Nest is located within the
Westbrook Subdivision on Lot R1. This lot presents several challenges with respect to site design due
to its unique size, shape and proximity to adjacent wetlands. The proposed PUD will capitalize on
these challenges and use the site’s attributes to create a vibrant infill neighborhood. The anticipated
timeline is to finalize entitlements in summer of 2019 and construct the residential units and site
improvements beginning in the fall of 2019.
The Nest, located on Lot R1 Block 5, Westbrook Subdivision, Phase 4, will consist of 45 dwelling units
providing Bozeman residents with both home ownership and rental opportunities. The project will
consist of 13 condominium units. The Nest at Westbrook is located along Baxter Creek in West
Bozeman in a R-3 Residential District. This PUD Concept outlines the overall project, goals, and design
intent. See attached for project maps, materials and support documentation.
The subject property (5.411 acres) is located between Annie Street to the north and Durston Road to
the south. The project site is an undeveloped primary lot within the Westbrook Subdivision. The legal
description is Westbrook Subdivision, Phase 4, Block 5, Lot R1, SE 1/4, S4, T 2S, R5E, City of Bozeman,
Gallatin County, Montana.
The Nest is also located along the Baxter Creek corridor and trail system. Trails and/or parkland to
both the east and west of the project site are connected via a trail that bisects the Nest neighborhood.
The substantial open space, parks and trail corridor along the western boundary of the project provide
an additional sense of openness for this compact and connected neighborhood.

RELAXATION UDC STAFF COMMENT & APPLICANT RESPONSE
#1 38.320.020.A
Minimum Lot area (R-3) in household configurations:
To allow multifamily lots that are smaller than the
minimum lot area provided in 38.320.030. As
designed the buildings still meet the minimum open
space area required by 38.520.060. The design
concept is to minimize individual lot area in favor of
public open space. This configuration provides for a
more cohesive neighborhood with common
maintenance of most green spaces. Each lot will
front onto a public landscaped open space with
pedestrian facilities that is maintained by the HOA.
This will act to increase the usable open space for
the individual lots. When considering all of the open
space with the individual lot areas, the total area
provided is well in excess of the 3000 sf per
dwelling.
424
#5 38.350.050.A.4
Porch Encroachment: To allow porches/entries to
encroach up to 5 feet into the rear yard (woonerf)
setback in a similar manner to the allowed 5’ front
yard (open space) encroachment. The
encroachment will not affect utility easements or the
ability to access utilities. Architectural features
which do not add usable area to a structure, such as
chimneys, wing walls, sills, pilasters, lintels,
cornices, eaves, gutters, awnings, window wells and
steps, provided such architectural features do not
extend more than five feet into any required front or
rear setback are already allowed. This
encroachment will simply allow these features to be
structurally supported by posts located in the
setback.
#10 38.400.090.D

BMC Section 38.220.060 – Additional Subdivision Preliminary Plat Supplements
Below is a summary of the Bozeman Municipal Code Section 38.22.060 regarding submittal
requirements for a subdivision preliminary plan as well as a narrative response summarizing how each
of the required sections has been satisfied with this submittal:
A. The following list of preliminary plat application supplements must also be provided for all
subdivisions unless waived by the development review committee during the pre-application
process. The developer must include documentation of any waivers granted by the city after the
pre-application meeting or plan review. Additional relevant and reasonable information may be
required to adequately assess whether the proposed 426 subdivision complies with this chapter and
the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act. The need for additional information is determined
during the pre-application process.
1. Surface Water
• There are no watercourses on this site. An existing wetland associated with Baxter Creek
exists in the Common Open Space E of the Westbrook Subdivision directly west of this
subdivision. The 30’ and 50’ wetland setbacks encroach into the property. Additionally,
there is an existing stormwater pond in the northwest corner of the site that is to remain
with this development. Please refer to the wetland summary letter provided in Appendix E
of this submittal for supporting information.
2. Floodplains
• There are no designated floodplains on or immediately adjacent to this site.
3. Groundwater
• Groundwater or seepage was observed in all fifteen exploratory test pits excavated during
the site visit. Groundwater was encounter at depths varying from 3.5 to 7.5 feet bgs. The
proposed woonerf section will be installed ~18” above existing grade to help mitigate the
presence of groundwater on site. Please refer to the geotechnical investigation report
included in Appendix C of this submittal for more information regarding groundwater.
4. Geology, Soils and Slope
• No unusual geological features are present on the subdivision site. The geotechnical
investigation report is included in Appendix C of this submittal.
5. Vegetation (Waived)
• No special vegetation is located within the property.
6. Wildlife (Waived)
• No critical wildlife species or habitats are known to be found on this property.
7. Historical Features (Waived)
• There are no known historical features located within the property.
8. Agriculture (Waived)
• The property is not a viable farm unit.
9. Agricultural Water User Facilities (Waived)
• No water user facilities exist within the proposed subdivision.
10. Water and Sewer
• Water Supply 427
Water for domestic use will be provided by connections to the City of Bozeman water
system. The proposed water mains will connect to existing water mains in Durston Road,
Glenwood Drive, and Annie Street. Please see the Water and Sewer Design Report in
Appendix A for more information.
Water rights or cash-in-lieu thereof, will be transferred with the final plat application.
• Sanitary Sewer
Sanitary sewer service will be provided through connection to the City of Bozeman’s existing
sanitary sewer collection system. The sewer system will connect to the 8” main stub located
to the south of the Annie Street/Cassandra Lane intersection. From there, sanitary sewage
will be conveyed to and treated at the City of Bozeman’s Water Reclamation Facility. Please
see the Water and Sewer Design Report in Appendix A for more information.
11. Storm Water Management
• Storm water within the subdivision will be conveyed via surface flow to storm inlets, then
underground via storm drain piping to an existing stormwater pond in the northwest corner
of the site. The pond will have an outlet structure installed to reduce the required size of the
pond, and the structure will be designed to limit the discharge to pre-development rates.
Please see the Stormwater Design Report in Appendix B for more information.
12. Streets, Roads, and Alleys
• The proposed Nest PUD Subdivision at Westbrook has legal access onto Annie Street,
Glenwood Drive, and Durston Road. The proposed woonerf section will complement the
established (existing) street grid structure and be within a dedicated right-of-way. The right-
of-way width is 34’. The woonerf section is made up of a 5’ mountable concrete border, 17’
asphalt section, and a 2’ mountable concrete border for a full width of 24’. There is an 8’
parking lane adjacent to the 2’ mountable concrete border that will be utilized for parallel
parking. Concrete sidewalks will provide pedestrian circulation within the subdivision. The
Traffic Impact Study is included in Appendix F of this submittal.
As recommended in the Geotechnical Report (Appendix C), the pavement design section for
the woonerf section is 3” asphalt surface course over 6” of 1-1/2” minus crushed gravel base
course over 18” of 6” minus pit run sub-base course. This section will be checked per the
AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures when during the construction design
development.
Road maintenance for all streets will be provided by the Westbrook Subdivision
Homewner’s Association for the subdivision after the improvements have been accepted by
the City. Erosion and siltation control will be exercised during construction by using the
appropriate best management practices as outlined in “Montana Sediment and Erosion
Control Manual” (May 1993) prepared by the MDEQ Water Quality Bureau.
13. Utilities
• Letters requesting comments on their ability to service this subdivision have been sent to
the following service providers:
Republic Services of Montana, American Medical Response, Bozeman Deaconess Hospital,
Bozeman Public School District, Charter Communications, NorthWestern Energy,
428
CenturyLink, Streamline Transit, and the United States Postal Service. Response letters from
all of those who chose to comment are enclosed in Appendix D.
Standard 10-ft front yard utility easements will be provided along the western blocks.
14. Educational Facilities
• A letter was sent to Todd Swinehart, P.E., Director of Facilities, Bozeman Public Schools. A
copy of the letter and the response are enclosed in Appendix D.
15. Land Use
• The Nest PUD Subdivision is proposed as a 15-lot subdivision. The subdivision includes 45
condominium units located on 13 separate lots. Two Common Open Space parcels are
provided along the western and eastern borders of the site. The Common Open Space
parcels will be landscaped to provide usable space for the subdivision’s residents.
16. Parks and Recreation Facilities
• All parkland has been provided with the underlying subdivision. Please refer to the table
below for a breakdown of existing parkland credits. A comprehensive landscape plan has
been included with this submittal showing the required landscaping within the Common
Open Space and the required landscaping points.
