Re: The Bozeman Gateway Planned Unit Development – Phase 4
MMI Project No. 3638.009
To who it may concern,
The Bozeman Gateway Planned Unit Development Phases 4 is a development providing
approximately 150,000 sf of retail/restaurant space and 60,000 sf of residential (multi household)
and parking garage. In accordance with the City of Bozeman’s Unified Development Code
(UDC), we are soliciting comments from public and private agencies and service providers
regarding the proposed Phase 4 of the Bozeman Gateway Project. A copy of the Preliminary
Plat is included for your reference.
The Applicant has gone to great extents to avoid and preserve existing wetlands and natural
water features on the site. All three natural streams will be permanently protected within open
space corridors. An Army Corps of Engineers 404 permit is in place to provide for mitigation of
disturbed wetland areas. The Applicant in the previous phases had solidified a plan to participate
in a newly created off-site mitigation program administered by the Montana Wetlands Legacy, a
Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks sponsored program.
The open space corridors and stream locations are illustrated on the enclosed preliminary plat
drawing. We are interested in any comments, questions, or suggestions you may have relating to
the site or project in general.
We can be reached at 922-6822. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
MORRISON-MAIERLE, INC.
