Public comment
David Smith, President of Bozeman Area Chamber of Commerce, presented a letter to the
Commission from the Board of Directors of the Bozeman Area Chamber of Commerce asking what will
happen if the 9-1-1 mill levy is passed because it is their understanding that the City funds this service with
$500,000 of general fund monies annually. The Board of Directors suggested the taxpayers of the city
deserve to know what will happen with this City funding, and those monies should be returned to the
taxpayers through a decrease in the general mill levy.
Elizabeth Darrow, 603 West Babcock Street, Gallatin Valley Democrats, called the Commission's
attention to the problem of theft and damage of political yard signs in this community. These acts create
a climate of intimidation and border on harassment, theft, criminal trespass, stalking, and inhibits political
free speech.
Christina Hayes, 1430 South Third Avenue, spoke as one who has had her signs destroyed. She
feels her house is being targeted, and it makes her feel uncomfortable because it creates a hostile
atmosphere.
Commissioner Youngman asked to hear what the Police Department is intending to do about this
problem, noting this has never happened as much in the past. City Manager Kukulski responded that he
will have Director of Public Safety Tymrak provide the Commission with a written report on the subject.

Deborah and Keith O'Reillv. 4K Partners (A.04012)
This was the time and place set for the public hearing on the intent to annex 1.6039 acres, as
established by Commission Resolution No. 3720, entitled:
COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 3720
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA,
DECLARING IT TO BE THE INTENTION OF THE CITY OF BOZEMAN, THE
INHABIT ANTS THEREOF AND THE OWNERS OF A TRACT OF LAND CONTIGUOUS TO
SAID CITY OF BOZEMAN, AND HEREIN MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED, TO
EXTEND THE BOUNDARIES OF SAID CITY OF BOZEMAN SO AS TO INCLUDE SAID
CONTIGUOUS TRACT WITHIN THE CORPORATE LIMITS THEREOF.
The subject parcel is described as Tract 1, Certificate of Survey No. 1895, and lies at the southeast
corner of the intersection of Story Mill Road and Bridger Drive.
Public hearing
Mayor Cetraro opened the public hearing.
Associate Planner Saunders presented the staff report, noting staff has reviewed this application
in light of the goals and policies set forth in Commission Resolution No. 3137; and staff's comprehensive
findings are contained in the written staff report. Based on that review, he forwarded staff's
recommendation for approval, subject to the following items being addressed prior to, or in conjunction with,
the annexation agreement:
1 0-11-04
- 5 -
1. That the applicant execute at the Gallatin County Clerk and Recorder's Office a
waiver of right-to-protest creation of SIDs for a City-wide Park Maintenance District,
which would provide a mechanism for the fair and equitable assessment of
maintenance costs for City parks as part of the Annexation Agreement.
2. That provisions for water rights or cash in-lieu of water rights in an amount
determined by the Director of Public Service be provided in the Annexation
Agreement whereby it is executed by the landowner prior to final subdivision plat
approval, final site plan approval, or issuance of any building permits, whichever
occurs first, prior to the City Commission adopting the Resolution of Annexation and
accepting the Annexation Agreement.
3. The property owner should be advised that prior to development of the property, the
future developer(s) may be required to prepare, at their own expense, a
comprehensive design report evaluating existing capacity of water and sewer
utilities, stormwater master plan, and traffic impacts.
4. The landowners and their successors shall pay all fire, street, water, and sewer
impact fees required by Chapter 3.24, Bozeman Municipal Code, or as amended at
the time of application for any permit listed therein.
5. The Annexation Agreement should include notice that, prior to development, the
developer will be responsible for installing any facilities required to provide full
municipal services to the property in accordance with the City's infrastructure master
plan and all City policies and guidelines that may be in effect at the time of
development.
6. An annexation map, titled "Cook-Bridger Annexation Map" with a legal description
of the property and adjoining rights-of-way and/or street access easements (i.e.,
Bridger Canyon Drive, Story Mill Road, and Hillside Lane) shall be submitted by the
applicant for use with the Annexation Agreement. The map must be supplied on a
mylar for City records (18 inches by 24 inches), a reduced 8~-inch by 11-inch or 8~-
inch by 14-inch exhibit for filing with the Annexation Agreement at the County Clerk
and Recorder, and a digital copy for the City Engineer's office. This map must be
acceptable to the Director of Public Service and City Engineer's office and shall be
submitted with the signed Annexation Agreement.
7. The final annexation map and metes and bounds description shall include the full
width of all adjacent right(s)-of-way. Note that the metes and bounds description for
each adjacent right-of-way must be described separately from that of the parcel. The
applicant is responsible for obtaining any required affidavits from the Montana
Department of Transportation (MDT) or Gallatin County.
8. That the applicant executes all contingencies and terms of said Annexation
Agreement with the City of Bozeman within one (1) year of approval by the
governing body, or annexation approval shall be null and void.
9. That concurrent with further development of the property easements be provided,
if needed, for a trail along the northern portion of the property to continue the trail
along Bridger Canyon Drive.
10. Applicant shall provide and file with the County Clerk and Recorder's office executed
Waivers of Right to Protest Creation of SIDs for the following:
a. Street improvements including paving, curb/gutter, sidewalk, and
storm drainage facilities for the following streets:
Story Mill Road

Hillside Lane
b. Signalization improvements for the following intersections:
1 0-11-04
- 5-
Story Mill Road/Bridger Drive
Bridger Drive/Rouse Avenue/Griffin Drive
c. Trunk sewer and water main improvements to serve the property.
The documents filed shall specify that in the event an SID is not utilized for the
completion of these improvements, the developer agrees to participate in an
alternate financing method for the completion of said improvements on a fair share,
proportionate basis as determined by square footage of property, taxable valuation
of the property, traffic contribution from the development, or a combination thereof.
11. The owner shall provide a public street and utility easement for Story Mill Road. The
easements shall be 15 feet wide from the western property line for a total future right
of way width of 90 feet. This constitutes the required right-of-way width for the
collector standard as shown in the transportation plan. A public street and utility
easement shall also be granted for Bridger Drive to match the existing width to the
east and west.
Staff has received one letter of opposition to this annexation.
Commissioner Kirchhoff asked if there is any obstacle to using Hillside Lane for ingress and egress.
Associate Planner Saunders responded that the public has the right to pass across this property because
Hillside Lane was created by petition, as was Story Mill Road.
Gene Cook, applicant, stated the reason they are proposing R-4 zoning is because this small parcel
will require a lot of costs to develop; and they want to provide affordable housing, such as townhouses or
condos, on this property. He suggested this project would be a logical transition between the residential,
commercial, and light industrial uses of the area.
Ed McCrone, 2150 South Story Mill Road, noted that, contrary to staff's presentation, he owns 80
to 120 feet on the southern boundary of this property; therefore, the applicant has no available access to
Hillside Lane.
Joe Gunter, 1118 Bridger Drive, read his letter to the Commission into the public record. He is
concerned that development of this property will increase traffic at the dangerous intersection of Bridger
Drive and Story Mill Road and will have an unfavorable effect on the neighboring property values.
Since there were no Commissioner objections, Mayor Cetraro closed the public hearing.
Responding to Commissioners Kirchhoff and Hietala, Associate Planner Saunders stated there have
been three surveys recorded involving the southern portion of this property. The record for the last 19 years,
from three different surveying companies, shows the same location for the 50-foot pUblic transportation
easement.
Commissioner Krauss stated he believes annexation of this property is appropriate since the City
will soon entirely surround it.
Decision
It was moved by Commissioner Kirchhoff, seconded by Commissioner Krauss, that the Commission
direct staff to bring back an annexation agreement, addressing Item Nos. 1 through 11 listed above, for
Commission consideration. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being
Commissioner Kirchhoff, Commissioner Krauss, Commissioner Youngman, Commissioner Hietala, and Mayor
Cetraro; those voting No, none.

zoning designation of IR-4", Residential-High-density on 1.6039 acres described as Tract 1, Certificate of
Survey No. 1895. The subject property is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Story Mill
Road and Bridger Drive.
Public hearing
Mayor Cetraro opened the public hearing.
Associate Planner Saunders presented the staff report, noting this property currently has a County
zoning designation of R-S. Staff has reviewed this application in light of the applicable criteria and
recommends approval of the requested R-4 zoning, with contingencies. Staff's comprehensive findings can
be found in the written staff report. The Zoning Commission reviewed this application at its September 8,
2004 meeting and voted to recommend disapproval of the proposed R-4 zoning but did not recommend an
alternative. Staff believes the demonstrable impacts of development will be offset by the higher level of
review that is required because this property lies within the Bridger Canyon entryway corridor. Three letters
have been received by staff and were included in the Commission packets.
In response to Commissioner Kirchhoff, the Associate Planner noted this parcel could accommodate
roughly 10 to 14 single-bedroom units.
Gene Cook, applicant, stated that, at this time, they are planning 10 to 12 townhouse units, priced
at an affordable level. He said that, in their judgement, it makes good economic sense to use this property
as a transitional area from the nice homes to the east to the commercial development to the west. If they
are limited to one or two homes, it would be cost prohibitive. He recognized the neighbors' objections to
higher density, saying he can appreciate their concern.
Tess Moore, 1309 Hillside Lane, reminded the Commissioners that this area is predominantly single-
family homes on one acre and asked that this area remain single-family homes.
Paul Griffin, 1205 Hillside Lane, stated this is a quiet neighborhood with lots of wildlife; and he
believes three or four little houses on this parcel would be fine, but not multi-family residences.
Ed McCrone, 2150 South Story Mill Road, voiced his willingness to work with the applicant regarding
the access dispute and suggested it would be nice if all the property owners could work together to find
alternatives that could make this area an amenity for Bozeman.
Tom Moore, 1309 Hillside Lane, pointed out that the property owners bought this property with its
current zoning designation; and they knew what would be permitted on the property. He suggested the
transition point should be Story Mill Road, with this area being reserved for single-family dwellings.
Dave Sovulewski agreed with others that R-4 zoning on this property is excessive and incompatible
with the zoning of adjacent properties.
Joe Gunter, 1118 Bridger Drive, resubmitted his letter for consideration on this matter, as well.
Paul Vanorden, 1211 Hillside Lane, stated there is no reason to change the zoning on this property.
Since there were no Commissioner objections, Mayor Cetraro closed the public hearing.
Associate Planner Saunders, responding to Commissioner Hietala, noted the minimum allowable
area per unit is 5,000 square feet in an R-1 zoned area. Attached multi-homes require 3,000 square feet
each. R-3 allows no more than four dwellings in a single structure, and R-4 would allow an unlimited
number of dwellings in a single structure.
Decision
Commissioner Hietala stated his agreement that some form of dense housing on this property would
provide a good transitional area. This is an infill situation, which the City promotes, and he is in favor of
some form of dense housing development.

.-...--.-.... ...-...". ------.-......
- 8 -
Commissioner Krauss agreed that the City does promote infill, but not at the cost of changing a
neighborhood. R-4 zoning is too dense for this location; and, while he is open to suggestions, he will not
approve R-4 zoning for this parcel.
Commissioner Youngman stated she believes multi-family is appropriate here, but she is
uncomfortable with R-4 zoning in this area and suggested R-3 as an alternative.
Commissioner Kirchhoff said he, too, is reluctant to approve multi-family housing in this area, adding
that the Zoning Commission did not provide a suggestion as to a substitute for the requested R-4 zoning.
He said he feels this is where rural living begins and low density is needed in this area. Commissioner
Kirchhoff stated, that in this case, he agrees with the Zoning Commission and the overwhelmingly negative
testimony that R-4 is not appropriate in this area, particularly since there is no shortage of high-density lots
within the city.
Commissioner Krauss suggested a compromise of R-2 zoning, which would allow duplexes, while
restricting building height.
Mayor Cetraro voiced his support for R-2 zoning.
Commissioner Youngman agreed with the change to R-2 zoning but reminded the Commissioners
that they cannot keep denying R-3 and R-4 zoning, which are necessary to create a reasonable mix of uses.
It was moved by Commissioner Hietala, seconded by Commissioner Krauss, that an initial municipal
zoning designation of "R-2", Residential- Two-Household, Medium-density on 1.6039 acres described as
Tract 1, Certificate of Survey No. 1895, be initially approved; and that staff be directed to bring back an
ordinance enacting the zoning designation upon completion of the annexation process. The motion carried
by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Hietala, Commissioner Krauss,
Commissioner Youngman, Commissioner Kirchhoff, and Mayor Cetraro; those voting No, none.

approval, as the requested deviation is historically appropriate. Staff has reviewed this application in light
of the applicable criteria and the comprehensive findings can be found in the written staff report. No public
comment has been received.

she is happy with the plans, as presented.

corner of intersection of West Oak Street and North 11th Avenue) (Z-04230)
This was the time and place set for the public hearing on the Conditional Use Permit for a Planned
Unit Development with a Certificate of Appropriateness, as requested by CT A Designworks representing
applicant Kenyon Noble for landowners Jerry Perkins and Peter K. Nelson under Application No. 2-04230,
to allow :t17.7 acres described as Tract 3A, Certificate of Survey No. 1215F, to be developed as a large
scale retail building materials facility, consisting of a 56,61 O-square-foot large scale retail structure for retail
display and sales area, office space and warehousing; a 33,220-square-foot large scale retail structure for
drive-through pickup area; and 148,949-square-foot outdoor sales areas and outdoor storage area, with the
following relaxations: from Section 18.40.180.B.2., Bozeman Municipal Code, to increase the area occupied
by outdoor sales and storage to 135 percent of the total square footage of the retail building(s); from Section
18.44.090.C.2.b.(1), to increase the allowable commercial drive access width to 50 feet; from Section
18.46.040.B.1., to decrease the minimum number of required parking spaces to 208; and from Section
18.52.060.A.1., and to allow two freestanding signs per zoned lot. The subject property is located at the
northwest corner of the intersection of West Oak Street and North 11th Avenue.
Public hearing
Mayor Cetraro opened the public hearing.
Planning Director Epple reviewed the staff report, noting four relaxations are being requested. Staff
has concerns regarding the character of the warehouse building and wants more design elements included
on the north side of both buildings. The Planning Director added that staff does not support the extra
warehouse and storage area unless a condition is added to increase the size of the north yard setback to
25 feet, with landscaping similar to that required for the Oak Street entryway corridor, and adding a
substantial screening fence on the northern boundary. Staff has reviewed this application in light of the
applicable criteria and recommends conditional approval. Staff's comprehensive findings can be found in
the written staff report. The Director of Public Service has approved the requested relaxation to allow a 50-
foot commercial drive access.
Scott Bechtle, CT A Architects, stated it is important for the design team and the owners to create
a beautiful large-scale retail facility, which doesn't appear as a big box store. The major emphasis will be
in showcasing Kenyon Noble's products; and it is key to integrate the building into the landscape, with lots
of open space. Kenyon Noble has been in business in Bozeman for over 100 years, and this project
reinforces the Ogles' commitment to doing business in this community. Mr. Bechtle pointed out the most
important and critical of the requested relaxations is the one to allow an increase in the area to be occupied
by outdoor sales and storage to 119 percent of the total square footage of the retail buildings at full build
out.
Candace Mastel, CTA Architects, noted the site layout responds to the applicants' need for
wholesale and contractor use and will be bounded on four sides by city-standard streets, having been
designed to allow easy access for customers, while taking into consideration possible effects on other uses.
The drive-through access is critical to the Kenyon Noble operation, allowing customers to enter from North
11th Avenue and exit onto North 14th Avenue. The landscaping plan is being modified and expanded in
response to Design Review Board and Planning Department suggestions to meet residential landscaping
requirements in order to gain points for open space. Ms. Mastel requested Commission approval of the
requested signage relaxation to allow a second monument sign per zoned lot, which was approved by the
Design Review Board; but Planning staff recommends denial unless the total permitted signage is reduced
to under 200 square feet.
Neal Ainsworth, Gallatin Valley Real Estate, stated he was in the process of finalizing the plans for
buildings D and E on the Tange property on Oak Street, until he found out a lumber yard was being
proposed for the site next door. It is of grave concern to him to continue his building plans when a lumber
yard doesn't blend in with the motif of this area, which is not an industrial site. While the building design
1 0-11-04
- 12 -
is outstanding, an outdoor storage facility is not appropriate next to an award-winning development. If this
application is approved, he will not continue his office building project.
Greg Allen, representing the Tange family, said this planned unit development does not fit with the
approved projects in this area, none of which include industrial development, such as a lumber yard. The
Tanges welcome the Ogles' retail building, which is gorgeous, as long as the outside storage yard is
omitted. This proposal is the improper use of a PUD, and it shouldn't be used to degrade this property. Mr.
Allen questioned what will happen with the remainder of this land once 17 acres is developed as an
industrial use.
Carl Solvie, 1901 South Tracy Avenue and manager of Best Western GranTree Inn, said he
supports this project, characterizing it as a welcome addition to the neighborhood.
Dave Hutchinson, 3075 Reserve Street, Missoula, stated he developed the Bridger Peaks Town
Center; and he has now entered into a contract with Jerry Perkins to put a planned unit development on all
remaining property after this 17 acres is sold to Kenyon Noble. They feel the Ogles' team has done a
masterful job, and they are fully supportive of this project.
Lowell Springer, 3207 Augusta Drive, voiced his support of this project, saying this is an excellent
mixed use of a commercial area and a quality building and landscaping plan.
Mike Gaffke, 16 Buckhorn Trail, urged the Commission to support this project, noting Kenyon Noble
has a proven reputation in this community; and the local businesses need to be supported.
Chuck Lorenz, general manager of Kenyon Noble, stated this facility will allow them to better service
this community, which is rapidly growing. They have been in business for 116 years because they are good
neighbors, and no one is more concerned with this community than the Ogles.
Don Stueck, representing Martel Construction, said the Ogles told them that they wanted to build
a project that would showcase them as leaders in the community, in competition with big box stores. The
Ogles were guided to this location by Planning staff, and they have met all entryway corridor guidelines.
The Martels encourage Commission support of this project and the requested relaxations.
Rick Ogle, 210 East Lincoln Street, thanked the Commission for its consideration, saying they
believe they have tried to do this process the right way from the very beginning, including asking Planning
staff's opinion of four possible locations. The outside storage yard is crucial to their business's ability to
compete with the big box stores, and they have a proven formula that works at their Belgrade location. He
asked the Commission to treat them fairly, like they did Home Depot.
City Manager Kukulski stated that this is an organization that has been in business for over 100
years in this community that now wants to make the commitment to take on the two largest retailers in the
country. For the Commission to try to move this project forward should be an honor.
In response to Mayor Cetraro's request, the Planning Director reviewed the four requested
relaxations, repeating that given the size and scale of the outdoor sales and storage area, staff feels there
should be a 25-foot setback, which is landscaped heavily, along the north side. Mr. Bechtle noted that does
not work for the applicant because that setback cannot be included in the open space calculation. Chris
Ogle added that space is needed for backstock, so they will not have to frequently restock.
In answer to Commissioner Krauss's inquiry, Planning Director Epple said the Commission can
entertain Oak Street setbacks of 10, 12, or 15 feet, but staff feels 25 feet is the standard commercial front-
yard setback.
Commissioner Kirchhoff stated this seems like an appropriate site for this project because of the way
it has been designed and the fact that it is bounded on all four sides by streets, which provides protection
for the contiguous landowners. He appreciates the reduced parking because it will not create a sea of
parking in front of the building. Commissioner Kirchhoff voiced his support of this application, including the
granting of the four requested relaxations, because of the excellence of the final product and the accrual
of points for superior design.
1 0-11-04

Commissioner Krauss noted this project is different than what the other landowners expected to
have on this property, but this is an ancient business that will now be allowed to compete with the retailers
that local businesses aren't usually able to compete with very well. The city will be getting an outstanding
building on Oak Street that is far superior to anything on the entryway corridor. He supports this application,
with some modifications of staff recommendations, because of the high design and the willingness of this
company to compete in this market. Commissioner Krauss suggested backing up the 8-foot fence on the
north side by five or ten feet and landscaping it better.
Mr. Stueck pointed out that on the revised landscaping plan, rather than a 25-foot setback on the
north, the architects have proposed jogging the fence and planting big trees in the jogs to break it up and
provide a buffer.
Mayor Cetraro agreed with Commissioner Krauss's comments, saying he feels comfortable with
granting the relaxations, as requested.
Commissioner Hietala also concurred with Commissioner comments made so far, stating he is
comfortable with the plan; and he is happy to accommodate local business expansion.
City Manager Kukulski cautioned the Commission that there will be other requests to approve
deviations for the outside storage area in the future. In addition to the beauty of this structure, the
landscaping must offer an addition to the building design to create something that can be pointed to in the
future when considering other projects.
Planning Director Epple suggested a change to condition number two, which would indicate that the
north setback should be landscaped in the manner presented by CT A Architects, on October 11 th, on the
revised landscaping plan, to provide for the fence offsets and extra landscaping. He further suggested a
change to condition number three to require that the sign plan does not exceed 400 square feet and must
be approved by Administrative Design Review staff or the Development Review Committee.
Commissioner Youngman pointed out the signs cannot be seen from across the site because they
aren't tall, so to have two signs on property with four frontages is acceptable because of the topographical
constraints. She then noted that condition number 15 should be deleted; the Planning Director agreed.
Since there were no Commissioner objections, Mayor Cetraro closed the public hearing.

Conditional Use Permit with Certificate of ADDroDriateness - to allow construction of 37 .OOO-sauare-
foot solid waste transfer station and accessory buildinas - SDrinaer GrouD Architects and Allied
Enaineerina for the City of Bozeman (Red Wina Drive at the extension of Wheat Drive) (Z-04229)
This was the time and place set for the public hearing on the Conditional Use Permit with Certificate
of Appropriateness requested by Springer Group Architects and Allied Engineering for the City of Bozeman
under Application No. Z-04229, to allow the construction of a 37 ,OOO-square-foot solid waste transfer station
and accessory buildings on Tracts 4A and B, Certificate of Survey No. 2153. The subject property is located
between the North 7th Avenue interchange and the North 19th Avenue interchange, east of Interstate 90
and south of US Highway 10 and Red Wing Drive.
Public hearing
Mayor Cetraro opened the public hearing.
Associate Planner Morris presented the staff report, noting access will be provided from Wheat
Drive, which will be extended to this site. This application has been reviewed by the Design Review Board
on two separate occasions. One letter of opposition has been received by staff and was included in the
Commission packets.
Scott Smith, Allied Engineering, stated communications have taken place with Montana Rail Link,
and preliminary discussions indicate this site is feasible for a potential rail spur. A wastewater system will
be developed so that any water that comes in contact with waste will be run through a drain system to a
holding tank and sampling vault before being released to the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Lowell Springer, Springer Architects, pointed out the lowest elevation of this parcel lends itself to
accessing trucks to the loading area, while minimizing the height of the building. All views of this site, other
than the overpass one, will be diminished because of the height of the railroad track and the berming,
coupled with the contour of the land. The roundness of the roof will help this transfer station to blend into
the topography, and the blue color of the roof blends with the sky and mountain hues. Mr. Springer said he
has talked with the neighbors, and they seem to be more appeased than it was originally thought they might
be.
Carolyn Rogers, 1523 Manley Road, stated her concern is for the neighbors. She requested good
landscaping blockage and increased landscaping, particularly trees, good sound blockage, and reduced
building height.
Dustin Johnson, project engineer, responded that noise pollution will be addressed by virtue of the
fact that this facility will be totally enclosed, which will also reduce the odor. He added there will be very little
impact to Frontage Road when this station is operational.
Director of Public Service Arkell distributed a memo on transfer station cost comparisons, prepared
by SCS Engineering, between the contemplated sites on Love Lane, Griffin Drive, the current landfill, and
the Mandeville farm.

Responding to Commissioner Youngman, Mr. Springer stated that this site is one of only two M-2
zoned appropriate sites, with the Idaho Pole site being the other, but it is still "brown". The proposed sites
went through rigorous evaluations, and this site came out way above the other sites.
Mr. Springer acknowledged that concerns have been raised regarding the use of the rest of this site;
and it will be master planned soon, but will most likely include the shop complex. Commissioner Krauss
stated use of this land needs to be maximized to help defray the costs, suggesting efficiently using this
resource would include a project that will justify a rail spur in the future. City Manager Kukulski agreed,
saying a high-quality industrial park, which would create high-paying jobs for the community, would be a real
asset.
Commissioner Hietala questioned the costs of the street improvements and was told those costs
include intersection upgrades and 3,000 linear feet of road, paving, curb, and gutter.
Commissioner Youngman suggested the use of recyclables as much as possible, saying use of
anything green would help make this a model building that the community can be proud of.
Following discussion, Commissioner Hietala exercised his right to delay the decision on this item
for one week. The Commissioners provided staff, architects, and engineers with questions they would like
answered next week, if possible.
