The intent is to enable greater visibility for large sites in particular, as with snow conditions, faster traffic areas, etc., the general public must still be able to observe notice language from the right- of-way. For the subject proposal, please review the following and confirm by replying to this email no later than tomorrow, 3/1/17 at noon that you or another application representative will facilitate the noticing. 1. What is the notice? a. It is a weatherproof large-lettered corrugated plastic sign. There are two sizes depending on the property size. b. Public noticing for comment periods or hearings and associated application information, timing, type, and location is required by law per Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) Chapter 38, Article 40. 2. How do I obtain the notice board and who posts it to the subject property? a. The project applicant or representative is responsible for picking up the notice, which is prepared by City staff. b. The pick-up location is the Front Desk of the Community Development Dept. at 20 E. Olive St. 3. When am I required to post the notice? a. The notice post-to-site date is identified on the notice (see attached notice for this project). b. You must post the notice by the end of the day, March 1, 2017. 4. How do I post the notice? a.
