BACKGROUND:Minutes from the August 2021 Downtown Urban Renewal District Board Meeting UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None ALTERNATIVES:None FISCAL EFFECTS:None Attachments: URD Minutes 8-21.pdf Report compiled on: August 18, 2021 3 Downtown Urban Renewal District Board Meeting Minutes August 17, 2021 Attending: Emily Cope, Cory Lawrence, Jen Madgic, Rob Pertzborn, Tony Renslow, Susan Riggs, Angie Rutherford, Ellie Staley, Nick Zelver Absent: Bobby Bear, Marley McKenna, Nicholas Wickes Minutes ACTION: Nick Zelver moved to approve the July minutes as presented. Tony Renslow seconded the motion. All voted in favor. Financial Reports August 2021 finance report is attached below. Executive Director’s Report PMC Updates: • PMC Operating Agreement Update – In touch with David Crowley with updates, I will keep PMC updated on next steps • DBP Restructuring Update – The DBP has hired Gaby Krevat to fulfill the Operations Manager position. Gaby’s first day of work was July 19th. Ellie has continued to provide support and guidance at DBA events to ensure things run smoothly and a confident transition can take place next year for all summer events. URD Updates: • Unified Development Code Edits – Building Height/Parking Requirements: refer to UDC Edit memo/discussion item on agenda. • Transportation Plans/Phase II scope: The City of Bozeman is short staffed and has not had an opportunity to provide comments on Part One yet. One suggestion from the board was to separate out the concepts studied into who has jurisdiction over the matters, COB and MDT. The board suggested staff to research if more funding will be made available for maintenance of Main Street with the change from Bozeman becoming a metropolitan city from a micropolitan city. • Parking Structure Plans/Bonding Analysis: Ellie is in the process of forming a working group to focus on structured parking and funding. The proposed group would consist of two URD board members, David Fine (COB Economic Development Dept), a representative from Sanderson Stewart (term contract team), a representative from Walker Consultants (term contract team), and potentially other individuals. 4 • Sewer Line Projects: The board discussed that this line item in the budget should have a formal process or possibly be a grant program for developers to apply. Ellie and Emily will research further and have more information at the next board meeting for potential options. • “Run DMC” Shuttle: There continues to be discussions surrounding the circulator shuttle “Run DMC”, connecting Downtown, Midtown, and the Cannery Districts at parking commission, parking subcommittee and at the varied neighborhood advisory board meetings (ex. DURD, MURD). The DBP has been involved with the discussion and may be a funding source for this project as it moves forward. • North Rouse Lighting Project: This project went to bid, was awarded to Montana Lines and work has begun with intent to finish the ground needed before the Hawthorne school start date of August 30. Due to supply chain issues, the poles will be delivered and installed in late Sept. and Montana Lines will be prepared to do this quickly and with little impact. Ellie and Emily has created a property/business owner list for this project and will keep them updated constantly on the project’s timelines. Additional Downtown Updates: • Downtown Maintenance Update: The BID board approved spending to purchase a new Kawasaki Mule for the maintenance team. Due to Supply chains, it will be likely it arrives in late fall. The Maintenance staff is working harder than ever this summer, THANKS!!! Mike, Trish, Porter and Kodie • Outreach Bozeman: The Outreach Bozeman pilot program is in full swing. HRDC hosted the first de-escalation training for businesses and property owners Friday, July 30th. Two HRDC employees (Crystal and Jenna) are conducting street outreach, specifically to businesses every Thursday and Friday. Brian (HRDC) and Marek (BPD) are also doing street outreach and education in downtown on Wednesdays. The DBP has also helped with additional marketing and outreach through email, social media and press outlets. There already seems to be positive outcomes forming. We will continue to work with our Outreach partners to produce data and feedback through the program and will present at future board meetings. • Parking Commission Update: At the May Parking Commission meeting, a resolution was passed to establish two subcommittees of the parking commission to address the unfinished strategies in the parking work plan. The two subcommittees are broken into the categories of “Capacity” and “Policy”. The subcommittees have been meeting a couple of times throughout the last couple of months outside of the regularly scheduled parking commission meetings. If you are interested in listening to the recorded meetings, they can be found on the city website under the parking commission section. o The Parking Capacity Subcommittee has been meeting bi-monthly and Ellie and Emily attended the July 14th Capacity Subcommittee meeting to discuss garage capacity, additional seasonal bike parking and shared use opportunities on surface lots. One goal of the Capacity Subcommittee is to gauge interest of downtown property owners and hold discussions of shared-use agreements for private parking lots to unlock more parking spaces. Staff will continue to stay engaged and work with this group. o The Policy Subcommittee proposed parking Resolution 2021-05: A resolution of the Parking Commission to the City of Bozeman, Montana, About Parking Requirements in the Unified Development Code to the Parking Commission meeting on August. 13 This resolution was passed 3-1 by the Parking Commission at this meeting with an amendment to “eliminate parking requirements in the B-3” There will be continued avenues for public 5 engagement on this resolution through the City’s full UDC edit process now and through the fall. DBP staff will stay very engaged with all 3 boards to engage our property and business owners throughout this process.

As redevelopment continues to expand beyond our downtown core, we are noticing the lack of interest in expanding our preferred Downtown Streetscape due to increased cost due to utility access. With several project in progress and others arising soon, I believe it’s time we start to look at how best to support developments with necessary utility improvements that will best serve our district, expand our beautification efforts and add taxable value to our district. ACTION ITEM: The current redevelopment project at 140 East Main is interested in installing trees and possibly light poles along the parameter of their project but are hesitant about the added cost of running the electrical conduit and lines to the light poles. This conduit not only provides the necessary electrical needs for these 4 light poles but also extends the access to nearby redevelopment projects through an added electrical box, refer to attached SILD map. The electrical access this project will also increase safety within our main pedestrian area and can also provide additional development incentive to the adjacent properties, therefore added potential to our URD taxable value. If conduit is not installed in accordance with this project, the sidewalk will need to be torn up in order to install light poles in the future. The total cost to assist in this electrical/conduit need at 140 East Main St. is $20-$25,000. I am requesting DURD Board’s approval for this expense and support for a more in-dept look at how best to provide utility and infrastructure improvement assistance moving forward. 13 14 Memorandum REPORT TO:Downtown Area Urban Renewal District Board FROM:Ellie Staley, Executive Director, Downtown Bozeman Partnership SUBJECT:September Finance Report MEETING DATE:September 21, 2021 AGENDA ITEM TYPE:Finance RECOMMENDATION:Discussion STRATEGIC PLAN:7.3 Best Practices, Creativity & Foresight: Utilize best practices, innovative approaches, and constantly anticipate new directions and changes relevant to the governance of the City.

UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None ALTERNATIVES:None FISCAL EFFECTS:None Attachments: DBP Monthly ED Report 9-21.pdf Report compiled on: September 15, 2021 17 Downtown Bozeman Partnership – ED Report September 2021 PMC Updates: • PMC Operating Agreement/Employee Manual Update – In discussion with Michael at Crowley Fleck. He is reviewing the needed updates and we are meeting next week to confirm and move forward with PMC approval. We are hoping to move forward with some Employee Manual in the coming months. There are several areas that our language is outdated. General Downtown Updates: • Downtown Maintenance Update: We are excited to announce the NEW RED 2022 Kawasaki Mule has arrived! We have had issues with the current Mule for several months and our maintenance staff is beyond excited. Mule is in Billings getting assembled and Bozeman arrival is TBA, likely within a week or two. • Outreach Bozeman: The Outreach Bozeman pilot program has been funded for summer of 2021. HRDC hosted a De-escalation and Crisis Training offered to businesses and property owners in July, with the next one tentatively in October. Crystal Baker is HRDC’s outreach specialist who will be making rounds Tuesday and Thursday to individuals in the community who may be experiencing homelessness and provide information on resources available. Brooke, one of HRDC’s housing navigators will be making rounds with Crystal. Jenna Huey will be the main contact for businesses who have any questions on training, situations and resources. Jenna will be making rounds with Marek every other Wednesday. We have received great input so far from businesses and community members who are asking how they can be a part of Outreach Bozeman and volunteer opportunities. We are working to come up with a timeline with HRDC report data quarterly and scheduling times to do outreach alongside with them to make introductions to businesses. o HRDC stated that outreach kits are a priority need and would be an ideal volunteer opportunity for those who want to be involved! ▪ HRDC is collecting Outreach Pack materials to distribute to members of our community experiencing homelessness. Contact Crystal (cbaker@thehrdc.org or 406-585-4844) to learn more about this volunteer opportunity. • Parking Commission Update: At the August 12th Parking Commission meeting, the commission passed Resolution #2021-05 (final unsigned version attached). This recommendation will be given to the City Commission as a recommendation when they begin to review UDC parking requirements. One of the most notable changes in the recommendations in the Resolution is the suggestion to exempt developments in the B-3 zoning district from required minimums. The Resolution suggests the following for UDC parking requirements: o NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Bozeman Parking Commission recommends the Bozeman City Commission and Planning and Zoning Commissions adopt the below parking requirements in the Unified Development Code for residential, commercial, and mixed use developments: ▪ A minimum of one parking space per 1000 SF of conditioned space ▪ A maximum of three surface parking spaces per 1000 SF of conditioned space 18 ▪ Required parking shall be rounded to the nearest whole parking space (e.g. 1400 SF = 1 parking space; 1600 SF = 2 parking spaces), to the nearest square foot and with halves rounded up ▪ For mixed use developments, requirements for commercial and residential uses shall be calculated separately, with a reduction of up to 50% of the lesser of the two requirements allowed ▪ Affordable housing developments, developments within one half mile of high frequency transit stops, the B-3 Zoning District, and redevelopments of less than 5000 SF are exempted from required minimums ▪ No additional credits or reductions are given or allowed except for a residential allowance of one parking space per 24 linear feet of parkable curb frontage (or alternative parking arrangement approved by the City) ▪ Exceptions to these requirements, for qualifying developments, are available through a Planned Unit Development, subject to City Commission review and approval Current URD Project Updates: • Unified Development Code Edits – Building Height/Parking Requirements: o B-3 Height & Zone Edge Transition edits are included on the October Community Development staff agenda to review and begin public engagement. The update includes height requirements in the B-3 district and the zone edge transition requirements for all applicable districts. This amendment will go through a community engagement process and therefore will not go before City Commission for adoption until the Spring 2022 amendments package. Link to online public comment: https://www.bozeman.net/government/planning/udc-community-platform/b-3-height- zone-edge-transitions-update. Ellie and Emily are meeting with Jacob and Sarah, project managers on this item next week to discuss timeline and community outreach plans. o Parking requirements have been removed from the UDC revision schedule, there is no information as to when they will be added back to the schedule. UDC Edits will remain on future board meetings to continue conversations as more information is provided. • Parking Structure Plans/Bonding Analysis: Two members of the URD Board, representatives from the City, Term Team and additional Stakeholders are forming a parking/bonding working group. Our first meeting was scheduled for Monday, Sept. 13 at 2pm. Initial discussions will involve best site options, further bonding analysis and next steps. • Alley Project: Ellie and Emily have been making headway on getting this project started. We have met with the City Community Development staff about the necessary next steps and permitting process. We have been developing a scope of work for a potential project manager to take us into Phase I and we’re hopeful we can go to bid on this project within this fiscal year. Link to Alley Concept Plan: https://s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/dba-2021/Resource- PDFs/2020-11-12_Bozeman_Alleyways_-_Report_Reduced.pdf • Downtown Streetscape/Utility Infrastructure Improvements Update: There are several redevelopment projects happening just outside the downtown core, several of which are concerned about the costs and legwork association with the continuation of the streetscape elements we’d prefer to see extended throughout the downtown district. I am requesting $20,00 for the 104 East Main Street to help run conduit and electrical lines to projected light poles and approval to continue looking into the best way to assist with infrastructure improvement within the core to expand our downtown streetscape. Refer to Memo and SILD Map attachments) 19 • North Rouse Lighting Project: The work to install the streetlamp along North Rouse is underway. Light poles are expected to ship this week and work is set to be completed by the end of September or early October. • Transportation Plans/Phase II scope: The City of Bozeman is short staffed and has not had an opportunity to provide comments on Part One yet. One suggestion from the board was to separate out the concepts studied into who has jurisdiction over the matters, COB and MDT. The board suggested staff to research if more funding will be made available for maintenance of Main Street with the change from Bozeman becoming a metropolitan city from a micropolitan city.
