PROJECT OVERVIEW I.A. Project Description The Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park Planned Unit Development (PUD) is an infill neighborhood that lies within the underlying Lowe’s & Saccoccia PUD. Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park project represents a diverse mixed-use neighborhood offering options for multigenerational housing in a variety of building types, as well as family housing services, early childhood education, and onsite health services. The overall design intent seeks to create a mix of affordable rental options within a quality walkable neighborhood that fosters a sense of community around shared recreation spaces in close proximity to jobs and services. The proposed project includes twelve (12) buildings situated on the 12.776 acre site, which lies within the B-2 Zoning District. This project site has numerous constraints due to its unique shape and proximity to existing roadways and adjacent wetlands. The proposed PUD will capitalize on these challenges and use the site’s attributes to create a vibrant, diverse, and affordable neighborhood. I.B. Purpose Statement The Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park Design Guidelines are intended to aid owners, residents, and employees of Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park in meeting the standards established through the construction of this project. These guidelines therefore communicate the purpose of the planning, design, and development of this neighborhood. These guidelines are further established to promote long-term neighborhood quality, character, and affordability. I.C. Relationship to Other Documents Notwithstanding anything stated in the Design Guidelines, all future development or redevelopment of the site is required to ensure that the proposed construction complies with all laws, rules, and regulations, including without limitation those established by the City of Bozeman, Montana, the County of Gallatin, Montana, the Declaration, the International Building Code, and other applicable plumbing, electrical, or building codes in effect for the City of Bozeman. Any code provisions that are not specifically listed identified as PUD Relaxations do not in any way create a waiver or other relaxation of lawful requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code or Montana State law. These guidelines may differ and, in some instances, may be more restrictive than the Bozeman Unified Development May 2020 Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park Design Guidelines Design Guidelines - Pg. 5 Code. In the event there is a conflict between the Design Guidelines and any City land use regulations, the more restrictive provision shall control. In addition to these guidelines and the Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park PUD approved relaxations (Appendix A), the underlying Lowe’s-Saccoccia PUD has applicable relaxations and design guidelines and ‘Easements, Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions’ (ECCRs). These documents have undergone updates as the PUD was modified. The current Guidelines were submitted in 2005 and the current ECCRs were amended and filed with the Clerk & Recorder in November of 2005 (Doc. No.’s 2207231 & 2207846). All of these documents are attached to these guidelines (Appendices B - E). 1. Covenants & Bylaws This project, contained within Phase 3 of the underlying Saccoccia PUD, is allowed per the applicable Saccoccia and Lowe’s PUD Design Guidelines. The existing governing documents for the underlying Saccoccia Planned Unit Development are to be superseded by governing documents that apply exclusively to the Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park PUD. Moreover, the applicant is proposing future condominiumization of this project site as allowed by the MCA. Therefore, the attached to these draft Guidelines are draft governing documents and the possible unit breakdown (Appendix F & G). These documents are to be amended and resubmitted for review during the Final PUD. May 2020 Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park Design Guidelines Design Guidelines - Pg. 6 II.
