Nick Zelver seconded the motion. All voted in favor. Financial Reports September 2021 finance report is attached below. Executive Director’s Report 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 There are several areas that our language is outdated.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. 4 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 ▪ 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 5 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) • 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.

The location of project is not at 140 East Main but at 137 East Babcock. Tony Renslow stated he fully supports this type of funding request to help with offsetting costs for developers who are redeveloping or building properties in the Downtown URD. Nicholas Wickes stated that a framework for funding requests should be developed and standardized moving forward to be consistent with funding allocations across the board. Cory Lawrence stated he believes that this is an appropriate use of URD funding and aligns with current goals of the URD work plan. The board directed Ellie and Emily to look further into the details of how many more blocks have unfinished electrical and conduit access, an estimated cost to complete this initiative within the URD boundary and compile a detailed framework for this project. ACTION: Nick Zelver moved to approve funding for electrical and conduit access for streetlamp installation at 137 East Babcock (revised address from memo provided) with reimbursement of the final cost of conduit, wiring, electrical service, pull box, concrete base, and fixture installation paid to property owner. Approved utility funding for the redevelopment project at 137 East Babcock to spent out of the FY22 Downtown URD budget line item of “Utility and Infrastructure Improvement”. Tony Renslow seconded the motion. All voted in favor.

Movement Analysis 59 15 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | Executive Summary Executive Summary Parking Occupancy • There are approximately 1,702 on-street parking spaces in the Study Area (B-3 Business District). • There are approximately 612 public off-street parking spaces in the Study Area across five facilities. • About 56% of the parking within the Core Downtown Area is 2-Hour time-restricted parking. • On-street parking occupancy in the Core Downtown Area peaked at 85% during the weekday afternoon, as shown in Figure ES1, and remained at or above approximately 70% during the other observation periods. • Total off-street parking occupancy peaked at 89% during the weekday afternoon, with all off-street facilities at or above 85% during that period. Figure ES1: Weekday Afternoon Parking Occupancy Heat Map 16 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | Executive Summary Length of Stay • On average, parking length of stay was higher in the off-street facilities than on-street, length of stay for all parking types other than unrestricted, all-day parking was under the posted two-hour limit. • Approximately twenty vehicles were observed to exceed the posted two-hour time limit on both the weekday and Saturday. • The percentage of vehicles staying longer than two hours was slightly higher on Saturday than the weekday in off-street parking facilities. Movement Analysis • Over 100 vehicles were observed to have parked in more than one place during the day on the weekday and on Saturday. • Re-parking within the B-3 zone, as shown in Figure ES2, is contributing to increased traffic congestion Downtown and indicates that some drivers may be moving to evade enforcement of the two-hour limit within those areas. Figure ES2: Weekday Movement Analysis 17 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | Executive Summary Key Conclusions & Next Steps for Consideration This parking study concludes that, as of the summer of 2021, parking occupancy in the Core Downtown Area consistently reaches, and in many areas exceeds, 85% during weekday afternoons. Also, while average lengths of stay are within the two-hour time window for most time-limited parking, “re-parking” within the time-limited parking areas, as shown in the movement analysis, is a frequent occurrence. The “85% Rule” suggested in the 2016 Parking Management Plan as a benchmark for when to implement paid parking is derived from an industry-accepted standard that identifies when a parking facility has reached its peak operating efficiency and users of the system begin to have trouble finding parking. As a standalone metric, this “rule” fails to account for other factors that can impact the parking system’s operations and customer experience. These factors include such considerations as recovery of system operations and maintenance costs, influencing parking behaviors to support community transportation, economic, and sustainability goals, and funding of future capital investments in parking and transportation. Because facilities operate most efficiently at different levels based on the type of user, basing decisions on an aggregated systemwide analysis of effective capacity will cause core, high-demand facilities to be over utilized while perimeter facilities remain empty. This contributes to traffic congestion as parkers circulate streets and parking lots, increasing potential conflicts among vehicles and pedestrians and cyclists, as well as increasing greenhouse gas emissions. Further, waiting until effective capacity is reached means action was taken too late and the customer experience is already declining. For these reasons, the City should consider implementing additional management strategies, specifically implementation of paid parking that will further support adding needed parking supply and funding the system’s operations and maintenance. This will support efficient and effective use of parking resources, maximizing benefit for both the City and for all the user groups that rely on Downtown parking. A list of potential next steps to be disused and evaluated are as follows, including but not limited to: • Extending the “rolling rule” to all time- limited parking within B-3 District to minimize “re-parking” • Evaluation of paid parking and its ability to support the parking program or other mobility initiatives • Expanding the Parking Benefit Zones (PBZ) to include the areas immediately to the north or south of Downtown • Evaluate parking enforcement technologies and practices • Increasing number of block faces that are time limited • Expansion of Bridger Park Garage • Adding additional structured public parking • Evaluate feasibility of remote parking • Adjusting time limits for both on-street and off-street parking to further incentivize off- street parking over on-street parking • Adjusting fines, penalties, and other parking ordinances • Formulating a curbside management plan and strategies 18 Introduction & Background 01 19 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 2 Introduction & Background The City of Bozeman, and the county within which it lies, was the fastest-growing area in the State of Montana between 2010 and 2020.1 Acting as the northern gateway to Big Sky Country and Yellowstone National Park, the City’s population increased by more than 16,000 to 53,293 in 2020. With this growth has come economic development, densification, and infill development in Downtown Bozeman. With this growth, however, has come notable increases in vehicular and pedestrian traffic in the area. Activity is high during both the day and evening, and on both weekdays and weekends, due to the convergence of multiple land use and user group types that frequent Downtown. These increases have placed more pressure on a public parking system that has not added significant capacity since 2009, when the City’s first and public parking structure, the Bridger Park Garage, came online. Constructed to accommodate the addition of up to 2 decks, the garage capacity could feasibly be increased by up to 143 spaces. The option to increase capacity through such an addition was studied in 2019 but has not been implemented.2 To better understand parking occupancy activity Downtown, the City began using mobile license plate reader (LPR) recognition technology. This study provides manual occupancy counts to verify those collected using the mobile LPR, and LPR support analysis of parking length of stay and turnover within the core downtown area where parking is time limited. Objectives for This Study Having an accurate and up-to-date picture of parking activity of Downtown can be instrumental in: • Helping the City to continue to plan for growth • Effectively managing the public parking and Downtown transportation systems. The analysis contained herein in this study will help the City to: • Identify and establish modifications to the existing parking management system that will enable it to operate more efficiently within the current supply, • Gain a better understanding of the need for new parking, including how much and when new parking may be needed, should the City decide to move forward with expanding the public parking system. 1 Miller, Alex. “Bozeman tops 50,000 people; Gallatin County leads Montana in population growth.” Bozeman Daily Chronicle.

The Study Area corresponds to the boundaries of the Downtown B-3 Business District, as defined in the City’s Code of Ordinances. Figure 1. Study Area Boundary 21 WALKER CONSULTANTS | 4 Parking Inventory & Occupancy 02 22 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 5 Parking Inventory & Occupancy Parking Inventory Overall, there are approximately 2,314 public parking spaces within the Study Area. Figure 2 maps on-street parking restrictions by block face and the locations of off-street public parking facilities within the Study Area. Figure 2. On-Street Parking Restrictions by Block Face and Off-Street Public Parking Facilities 23 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 6 On-Street Parking The City provided a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data layer that contained estimated on-street parking inventory, sorted by restriction, for each block face in the Study Area. This inventory assumes 24 linear feet of frontage per on-street space to determine the number of on-street spaces. Off-street parking inventories were also contained within the GIS data but were not sorted by restriction. During field observations, block faces where parking supply was unavailable due to construction or other reasons noted and controlled for, as well as where parking supply existed but was not indicated or where posted restrictions differed from the City’s data. There are approximately 1,702 parking spaces in the Study Area. Of these, about 781 parking spaces were within the Downtown “Core Downtown Area,” defined as the area bounded by 5th Avenue, Babcock Street, Mendenhall Street, and Wallace Avenue. 921 parking spaces were within the remaining areas of the Study Area. These inventories include both sides of the street for corridors on the Study Area perimeter and are comprised of full block length faces for street segments/block faces that are not fully contained within the boundary. Detailed on-street parking inventory, by street corridor, side of street, block face, and restriction, is provided in Appendix A. Figure 3 summarizes and compares on-street parking inventory by parking restriction category for the Core Downtown Area and Remaining Study Area. For purposes of this study, some categories were aggregated. This includes regulation categories such as 15 and 20-minute parking and overnight parking restrictions. Figure 3.

The capacity for the Bridger Parking Structure was obtained from the City’s parking website and confirmed in the field. There are 612 off-street public parking spaces within the four surface lots and one structure intended for general public use. Figure 4 shows off-street parking inventory by facility. Detailed off-street parking inventory, by facility, is shown in Appendix A. Figure 4. Off-Street Parking Inventory by Facility, Core Downtown* Parking Occupancy Methodology Parking occupancy surveys were conducted for the Study Area on a typical summer weekday (Thursday, August 17, 2021) and a typical summer Saturday (Saturday, August 19, 2021). On both days, one early afternoon count and one evening occupancy count were performed. The weather for the weekday count was unseasonably cold and rainy, and for the weekend count was cooler than average and cloudy. However, overall activity levels and traffic volumes appeared to be unaffected by the prevailing weather on both days. Counts were performed manually, with counts recorded separately according to restriction type for the on-street parking and by facility for the off-street parking. Weekday Overall, on-street occupancy across the Study Area during the weekday was highest during the afternoon count. The Core Downtown Area reached 660 vehicles, or 85% occupied, and the remaining study area reached 677 vehicles, or 74% occupied during this time. The overall occupancy for both areas combined was observed at 1,337 vehicles, or about 79% occupied. 2-hour parking was the highest-demand category during the weekday afternoon, with 2-hour on-street parking in the Core Downtown Area reaching 95%. 41 28 62 46 435Parking Supply 0%10%20%30%40%50%60%70%80%90%100% Willson Lot (North)Willson Lot (South)Black Lot Rouse Lot Bridger Park Garage 25 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 8 The weekday afternoon was observed to have the highest occupancy across all observation periods on both the weekday and Saturday. The overall system, including both on-street and off-street facilities, was 81% occupied during the weekday afternoon, mapped in Figure 5. However, during this time 2-Hour parking in the Core Downtown Area was higher than the aggregated study area at 86%. The overall systemwide evening occupancy for both the Core Downtown Area and remaining study area, dropped to 64%. At this time, the Core Downtown Area occupancy decreased to 69% in the evening while the remaining study area decreased to 55%. Off-street occupancy patterns correlated to those on-street, with the highest overall occupancy observed during the weekday afternoon at 89% occupied, with all facilities at or above 85% occupied. Total off-street occupancy decreased to 69% occupied in the evening, though the Willson Lots remained above 90% occupied and the Rouse Lot was 83% occupied. Figure 5.

Combined, occupancy was observed at approximately 68% occupied. Two-hour parking during this time experienced the highest occupation, with 2-hour on-street parking in the Core Downtown Area reaching 95%. Core Downtown Area occupancy decreased to 75% in the evening, while the remaining study area stayed consistently at 59%. The overall system evening occupancy was observed at approximately 66% occupied, however, during this time 2-Hour parking in the Core Downtown Area remained high at 93% occupied. Off-street occupancy patterns correlated to those on-street, with the highest total occupancy observed during the afternoon count at 73% occupied. In the evening, overall off-street occupancy decreased to 67%, though like the weekday, the Willson Lots and Rouse Lot remained above 90% occupied. The Bridger Park Garage reached 63% occupancy during the afternoon and 57% during the evening. Overall Occupancy Figure 6 through Figure 9 compare occupancy across all four observation periods.

For the Core Downtown Area, including all off-street parking facilities, routes were collected every two hours from 12 PM through 10 PM. Routes were collected every four hours from 1 PM through 9 PM for the remaining on-street parking outside the Core Downtown Area. Length of Stay To estimate average consecutive lengths of stay, Walker assumed a length of stay of at least one hour, per every hour elapsed, for every instance of a license plate observation within 2-Hour parking zones (off-street and on- street), where observations were conducted every two hours. For lengths of stay within all-day parking zones, Walker assumed a length of stay of at least two hours, per every four hours elapsed, for every instance of a license plate observation. For 15/20 Minute and Loading Zone Parking, Walker assumed a length of stay of at least 7.5 minutes for each occurrence of a license plate observation, with at least an hour assumed, per every hour elapsed, for vehicles where a license plate was observed twice or more. These assumptions are necessary due to the inherent limitations of sampling periods. The number of vehicles observed as having exceeded posted time limits were parked in one place for at least 121 minutes and were present during two consecutive license plate observations and represent the number of vehicles that were certain to have exceeded time limits. However, the actual number may be higher. Average lengths of stay reported here represent license plates observed during consecutive periods only and should be considered to represent the maximum possible average. For example, a license plate observed once may have been present for any length of time between one minute and 1 hour and 59 minutes, in the case of bi- hourly observations, or between one minute and 3 hours and 59 minutes, in the case of observations every four hours. Detailed length of stay data, including the numbers and percentages of total vehicles observed every 2 hours (2-Hour parking zones) or 4 hours (all-day parking zones), is included in the Appendix. It is typically desirable to see average lengths of stay shorter than the allowed time limit for time-restricted parking. While time limits prevent long-term parkers, such as employees, from occupying convenient spaces and reducing access for customers, one unintended consequence of time-limits is the possibility of over restricting the time and limiting the potential for customers to visit multiple destinations during a trip. Higher-frequency parking turnover increases the potential for additional economic activity, supporting local businesses by maximizing the chances that some on-street parking is available for customers during high-activity times. Also, high turnover helps ensure that convenient parking is being used by the highest number of patrons per day and not simply being “camped on” by long-term parkers for storage or taking advantage of deficiencies in enforcement. In a paid parking context, high turnover can also help to reduce or eliminate subsidizing costs associated with managed parking’s operations and maintenance by the General Fund (property taxes). 31 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 14 Weekday The average length of stay on the weekday, excluding 15/20 Minute and Loading Zone parking, ranged from 1 hour and 9 minutes in the two-hour parking zones to 2 hours in the unrestricted all-day parking zones. The average length of stay for off-street parking ranged from 1 hour and 13 minutes in the Willson Lots to 1 hour and 25 minutes in the Bridger Garage. The average length of stay across all off-street facilities was about 1 hour and 18 minutes. Average weekday lengths of stay are shown in Figure 10. In all, as shown in Figure 11, 19 vehicles were observed exceeding the time limit (two or more consecutive observations) within respective time-limited parking areas. Of those, four were along Main Street. The garage was excluded as parkers in that facility can pay to stay longer than two hours, and such parkers could not be separated from the data. The Bridger Garage had the highest percentage of vehicles staying longer than two hours at 8.5%. However, the Rouse Lot had the highest percentage of vehicles staying longer than 4 hours, at 1.6%. It should be noted, in the context of this discussion, that the garage provides 2 hours of free parking which is then $1 per hour. Additionally, monthly parking permits exempt permit holders from time limits in the permit’s assigned facility. Along Main Street, within the Core Downtown Area, 94.4% stayed less than two hours while 5.4% stayed between 2 and 4 hours, with no observed stays longer than 4 hours. Average length of stay for 2-Hour on-street and off-street parking are summarized and compared in Figure 12. Figure 10.

Weekday Consecutive Length of Stay by Percent, 2-Hour On-Street and Aggregated Off-Street Facilities Saturday The average length of stay on the Saturday, excluding 15/20 Minute and Loading Zone parking, ranged from 1 hour and 11 minutes in the two-hour parking zones to 2 hours in the unrestricted all-day parking zones. The average length of stay for off-street parking ranged from 1 hour and 18 minutes in the Bridger Garage and Black Lot to one hour and 24 minutes in the Rouse Lot. The average length of stay across all off-street facilities was the same as for the weekday, about 1 hour and 18 minutes. Average Saturday lengths of stay are shown in Figure 13. In all, as shown in Figure 14, about 20 vehicles were observed exceeding the time limit (two or more consecutive observations) within respective time-limited parking areas, though not all vehicles violated the City’s “Rolling Rule.3” This movement may indicate evasion of time limits by area employees, moving to avoid time limits by customers visiting multiple destinations, or customers moving between multiple destinations because it is perceived as more convenient or accessible than walking. Of those that did violate the rolling rule, one was along Main Street. The Garage was excluded as parkers in that facility can pay to stay for longer than two hours, and these paid or permitted parkers could not be identified in the data. The Rouse Lot had the highest percentage of vehicles staying longer than two hours at 8.8%. No off-street facility was observed to have a vehicle definitively parked consecutively for more than four hours. Along Main Street, within the Core Downtown Area, 95.0% stayed less than two hours while 5.0% stayed between 2 and 4 hours, with no observed stays longer than 4 hours. Average length of stay for 2-Hour on-street and off-street parking are summarized and compared in Figure 15. 3 “In 2003, the Bozeman City Commission adopted a new law to prevent someone from moving their vehicle within the same block or parking lot to avoid the time limit. Moving your vehicle within the same 'block face' - same side and same block of street - to avoid the 2-hour limit, or leaving to return to the same block face or lot within 3 hours, may result in an overtime parking fine.

Essentially, these vehicles continue to occupy space consistently within a managed zone, reducing overall accessibility for others. The City of Bozeman has a “rolling rule” in place, which states that vehicles are only allowed to park for one two- hour period per day per block face. Simply re-parking in a different space on the same block does not reset the clock, and such vehicles are subject to citation. The “rolling rule” also applies to the off-street parking facilities, where parkers cannot simply relocate to a different space within the same facility. However, the “rolling rule” currently does not apply to the overall Study Area, meaning that movements to different time-restricted parking spaces on a different block face, or within a different off-street facility, are currently not prohibited. There are other important reasons to discourage such behavior. In a dense, walkable area such as Downtown Bozeman, the levels of pedestrian activity and circulating vehicular traffic are very high for most of the day. Systems where people can park once reduce traffic congestion related to circulating vehicles looking for re-park opportunities because those people walk instead of driving to reach multiple destinations. This reduction in parking-related traffic has positive safety implications. It can reduce the number of interactions between vehicles searching for a space, as well as with bicycles and pedestrians, and support reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, people are more likely to use off-street parking if they will be parking once per day for a longer period of time, especially if there are incentives, such as reduced cost or longer time limits, compared to on-street options. Also, a system where people park once naturally functions as more of a shared parking system. With shared parking, patrons and employees are not competing to park in front of or as close to their intended destination as possible, reducing spillover parking demand’s negative effects. For the movement analysis, a “movement” constituted a license plate that was observed at two different points, using geolocated coordinates, occurring at least approximately a quarter to a half-block apart or more to account for the margin of error related to GPS accuracy. Weekday In all, about 14 vehicles were observed to move within the time-limited on-street parking area and stay more than two hours, with an additional four vehicles moving between time-limited and unrestricted parking for a period exceeding two hours. Two vehicles were observed to have violated the “rolling rule” in place. Six vehicles made more than one movement. In all, about 107 unique movements of a quarter of a block or more were observed across the day. However, 44 of those were non-consecutive movements, such as vehicles leaving in the morning from an unrestricted block face and returning to a different parking space in the evening. There were 51 consecutive movements involving time-restricted parking, where at least one of the locations was time-restricted, and 26 consecutive movements where all locations were time restricted, either off-street or on-street.

All Observed Saturday Vehicle Movements 39 Next Steps for Consideration 04 40 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 23 Next Steps for Consideration The City of Bozeman’s downtown parking system has been a part of six plans and studies since 2010. Previous studies and plans pertaining to parking in Downtown Bozeman include: • Downtown Bozeman Parking Study (Western Transportation Institute, Montana State University, 2012) • Downtown Bozeman Parking Study (Western Transportation Institute, Montana State University, 2014) • Downtown Strategic Parking Management Plan (Rick Williams Consulting, 2017) • City of Bozeman Parking Study (Western Transportation Institute, Montana State University, 2017) • Bridger Park Garage Expansion Study (DCI Engineers, 2019) • Downtown Bozeman Structured Parking – Feasibility Study (Sanderson Stewart, 2019) One of the consistent themes from the previous studies is that parking occupancy within the Core Downtown Area, as defined in this document, and in the off-street facilities, has been high for many years and has steadily trended towards being effectively full during peak times. One of the Guiding Principles of the Strategic Parking Management Plan uses an “85% Rule” as a parking occupancy standard to inform and guide decision-making. The “85% Rule” suggested in the 2016 Parking Management Plan states, “When the parking supply is routinely occupied at 85% or greater during peak periods, more intensive and aggressive management strategies are called for to assist priority customers in finding available parking. This ‘85% Rule’ will inform decisions regarding time stays, enforcement, and other issues related to capacity management.” While this “rule” is derived from an industry-accepted standard, known as Effective Capacity, when considered on its own it fails to account for other factors that can and will have a significant impact on the parking system’s operations and customer experience. Effective capacity is defined as the level of occupation at which customers struggle to find available parking spaces within a facility. Because facilities operate at different levels, basing decisions on an aggregated systemwide analysis of effective capacity will cause core, high-demand facilities to be over utilized while perimeter facilities remain empty. This contributes to traffic congestion as parkers circulate streets and parking lots, increasing potential conflicts among vehicles and pedestrians and cyclists, as well as increasing greenhouse gas emissions. Further, waiting until effective capacity is reached means action was taken too late and the customer experience is already declining. Enhanced parking management strategies, whether related to adjusting time limits, enforcement, or pricing, require planning, community education, technology procurement, staff training, and other implementation considerations should be undertaken before a problem arises. When considered on its own, the “85% Rule” fails to account for other factors that can and will have a significant impact on the parking system’s operations and customer experience. 41 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 24 Proactive parking management can significantly improve the parking experience and contribute to a more positive Downtown experience for employees, customers, and visitors relative to reactive management. A parking system managed proactively looks at not only the existing parking environment, but considers the community’s master planning activities, transportation trends, and projected growth and distribution of population and employment. No single benchmark, considered on its without additional context, represents a best practice. For example, parking at a multi-family residential development may routinely exceed 95% occupied, but because residents exhibit habitual parking patterns, parking in the same spaces at the same time of day, the experience is not perceived negatively by the system users. Alternatively, it would not be uncommon for a medical center that experiences a high degree of irregular visitors, who are generally not familiar with the campus or its parking facilities, to received complaints of lack of parking availability when the system reaches 75% to 80% occupied. Pricing may also be considered for reasons beyond demand management, particularly in areas with lower price sensitivity. Managed parking systems generate costs related to their ongoing operations and maintenance, and for future investments in capital projects to support a growing district’s transportation needs. Options for funding these activities include one or a combination of strategies such as taking on debt through conventional financing or issuance of bonds, by creating a parking tax district, allowing for parking payment in lieu of new developments, operating as part of a parking authority or enterprise fund, or charging user fees. User fees, or paid parking, can reduce or eliminate subsidizing Downtown parking management with citywide property tax revenue from the General Fund and instead having those that utilize and benefit from it the most provide for its financial burden. This parking study concludes that, as of 2021, parking occupancy in the Core Downtown Area consistently reaches, and in many areas exceeds, 85% during weekday afternoons. Also, while average lengths of stay appear to be well within the two-hour time window for most time-limited parking, “re-parking” of vehicles within the time-limited parking areas, as shown in the movement analysis, is a frequent occurrence. For these reasons, the City should consider implementing active management strategies, specifically implementation of paid parking. Parking user fees will not only support management of the existing system’s operations and maintenance but provide potential reinvestment in the B-3 District’s future transportation needs. This will support efficient and effective use of parking resources, maximizing benefit for both the City and for all the user groups that rely on Downtown parking. A list of potential next steps to be disused and evaluated are as follows, including but not limited to: • Extending the “rolling rule” to all time- limited parking within B-3 District to minimize “re-parking” • Evaluation of paid parking and its ability to support the parking program or other mobility initiatives • Expanding the Parking Benefit Zones (PBZ) to include the areas immediately to the north or south of Downtown • Evaluate parking enforcement technologies and practices • Increasing number of block faces that are time limited • Expansion of Bridger Park Garage • Adding additional structured public parking • Evaluate feasibility of remote parking • Adjusting time limits for both on-street and off-street parking to further incentivize off- street parking over on-street parking • Adjusting fines, penalties, and other parking ordinances • Formulating a curbside management plan and strategies 42 Appendices 05 43 Downtown Bozeman Parking Study Parking Assessment and Next Steps WALKER CONSULTANTS | 26 Appendix A.

Hoping to make report public by late Nov./early Dec. Staff has developed a strategic communications plan for all 3 DBP organizations to make sure all of our members, supporters and stakeholders are kept updated, informed and engaged through a varied ways throughout the year. Ellie will share this with DBP Boards this week for review and feedback. This is an evolving document and will be reviewed biannually. • Downtown Maintenance Update: We are excited to announce the NEW RED 2022 Kawasaki Mule has arrived and is in full use. Flowers have been taken down for the season. Thanks Oak Gardens, our 2021 Flower Sponsors and our annual BID flower waterers for a great season! • Outreach Bozeman: HRDC has recently compiled a Quarterly report of the contacts and feedback they have received through the pilot program, starting in June. See attached report. The next De-escalation training is scheduled for Nov. 12. Ellie is attending along with several other confirmed downtown stakeholders and if room, it will be opened to a limited number of additional attendees. • Commercial Listings on DBP Website: There is a new resource on our DTNBZN Website to list commercial properties for lease or for sale. For more info visit: https://downtownbozeman.org/resources/downtown-commercial-properties. URD Project Updates: • Parking Structure Plans/Bonding Analysis: Two members of the URD Board, representatives from the City, Term Team and additional Stakeholders have formed a parking/bonding working group. The group met once in late Sept. and will meet in late Oct. for continued discussion on site solidification, bonding details and project 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 developed an initial 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: URD approved electrical funding for 137 East Babcock for historic streetlamp installation and extending electrical access within district BUT, the developer and property owner denied the financial assistance due to a time constraint for a contracted lease. I am still working to make this happen and even more of a reason to begin the process of formally adopting a Downtown Street Standard and adding 79 utility expenses to current Streetscape Assistance Grant. Next steps are to discuss scope of work with TD&H to help develop this standard and next steps for approval. • North Rouse Lighting Project: Check out the newly lit South Rouse corridor from Main to Lamme. There are 20 new streetlamps funded by the URD lining both side of the street. We are waiting for re-sized skirting order, hope to wrap up project by early Nov. City of Bozeman Updates: • City Noise Ordinance Update: City Staff is drafting changes to the City’s “Noise Ordinance” and will present those changes on October 26th to the City Commission. The proposed draft language is as follows: “Noise emanating from a construction operation occurring between the hours of 8:00 PM to 7:00 AM is prohibited from exceeding 60dB(A) as measured at the property line of an immediately adjacent property.” The City Code currently uses a “reasonable person” standard to measure noise level and limits construction activity time between 6:00AM- 10:00PM. See attachment. • UDC Edits: The community engagement process will begin in October surrounding B-3 building height and zone edge transition edits to the UDC. The website is slated to be up and running with a survey and StoryMap with real-life height and transition examples by the end of this week. Staff to keep board updated on when this goes live. https://www.bozeman.net/government/planning/udc-discussions Upcoming DBA Events/Programs, more info at www.downtownbozeman.org • PNKBZN – October 1-31, pinkbozeman.com • Trick or Treating – October 29, 4-6pm, CANCELLED by DBA Board vote • Ladies’ Night – November 18, 5-10pm • Small Business Saturday – November 27, all-day • Christmas Stroll – Saturday, Dec 4, 4:30-7:30pm. 2021 event confirmed by DBA Board vote, with potential modifications to indoor activities • Art Walks – Friday, December 10, 6-8pm Building Projects: • Merin Condos - (on North Bozeman across from Dave’s Sushi) 28 units of owner-occupied housing.

With the addition of hiring an Outreach Specialist in July 2021, we were able to fully implement street outreach efforts in the downtown Bozeman area and throughout the city. Our Recovery Specialist joined the BPD Resource Officer on a bi-weekly basis to also outreach with urban campers; those sleeping in their campers, RV’s, tents, etc. Customers were provided with resource information for permanent housing, day services at the Warming Center, and peer support services. The team also provided real-time problem-solving techniques to support customers in staying safe and following directives. Addressing basic needs such as food and warm clothing were also provided. With the addition of expanding our day service operations at the Warming Center, we’ve seen 272 individuals use this service from June - September. In conversation with the BPD Resource Officer and downtown businesses, it seems that the increase in capacity with day services at the Warming Center alleviated some of the pressure on the downtown Bozeman area. ★ 189 males ★ 71 females ★ 5 trans/GNC ★ 214 white ★ 43 BIPOC ★ 23 Hispanic/Latino ★ 26 veterans ★ 57 chronically homeless (disabling condition + outside/shelter for 12 months or more in the last 3 yrs.)
