Subject: Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park Planned Unit Development
To Whom It May Concern,
On behalf of the project team and our client Steve Dymoke, GMD Development LLC, I am writing to
thank you for the opportunity to submit this Preliminary Planned Unit Development (PUD) for the
Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park neighborhoods. The Arrowleaf Park & Perennial Park PUD is an
affordable infill neighborhood that lies within the underlying Lowe’s-Saccoccia PUD. The Arrowleaf Park
& Perennial Park project represents a diverse mixed-use neighborhood offering multigenerational
housing, 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 and proximity to jobs and services.
This project is proposed in partnership with the Human Resource Development Council (HRDC) and is to
be comprised of 232 housing units (96 senior living uses & 136 multi-family apartments and rowhouses),
100% of which are to be offered as affordable rental units that remain affordable for a minimum of
twenty (20) years. The applicant is therefore requesting the project be prioritized for City review as
allowed in the UDC Section 38.230.050(E).
The applicant understands and is appreciative of the current limitations the City of Bozeman can offer
for expedited review. With this reality in mind, we are hopeful that the City can be flexible is applying
the Municipal Code requirements and offer conditions of approval where possible to keep this project
on schedule.
Thank you for your consideration of this proposal and we look forward to partnering with the City of
Bozeman to realize this significant project!
Sincerely,
Ryan Krueger, AICP CFM
Senior Planner
