RE: Gran Cielo Subdivision, Phase 1, Multifamily Lots, Lot 5, Block 6 and Lot 3, Block
5, Site Plan Review Application No.19479
Dear Danielle,
The following information addresses the planning comments from the original application review.
1. Buildings 19 and 20 (Duplexes) - no issues
As noted, and acknowledged, no issues.
2. Building 21,Lot 5,Block 6 (Triplex) - Fire sprinklers and fire alarm systems required due
to three units and stories,as acknowledged in the application.
It is our understanding the City changed its fire line policy since these comments
were received and ffre sprinklers are now only required on four-plexes or greater.
3. The fire riser/domestic water service room should be sized to provide two-foot clearance
from pipe to exterior walls as specified by city standards.
See response to comment 2 above.
4. Road/alley ways designated, as 24-foot wide will be required fire lanes. Marking and
features shall be installed per Fire Code at points of ingress/egress and corners.
Alley and roadway markings were completed as a part of the Gran Cielo Subdivision
infrastructure.
5. Building addresses should be as building is fronted to Graf and S. 31st St.
Building addresses have been assigned by the City accordingly.

Parks and Recreati®;
1. Park area requirement is to be provided as Improvements-in-lieu of Parkland in
accordance with the preliminarily approved Gran Cielo Master Park Plan. Provide a
spreadsheet showing itemized improvements to meet the base park requirements for the
Subdivision,additional improvements for the additional density of this lot up to 12 units
per acre,and improvements required for any other lots being reviewed concurrently. CIL
owed for subdivision requirements will be established at the time of Final Plat for Gran
Cielo Subdivision. Subsequent development must provide improvements based on the
appraisal value at the time of Site Plan completion (unless equivalent improvements have
been previously installed or guaranteed). Provide in the spreadsheet the cost per line
item to show compliance with the appraisal value established. Staff requests an editable
Excel spreadsheet to assist in future site inspections.
According to the final plat of Gran Cielo Subdivision Phase 1, an excess of parkland
was provided(improvements in-lieu were not proposed with Phase 1). As noted on
each Sheet C1.0 of our submittal `Parkland calculations on Sheet 5 of the Gran Cielo
Subdivision Phase 1 Final Plat show that a development density of 12 dwelling units
per acre was assumed for each of the 4 multi-unit lots associated with this project
Lot 9, Block 12, Lot 4, Block 12, Lot 3, Block 5 and Lot 5, Block 6 in aggregate were
assumed to contain a total of 28 dwelling units. This project proposes a total of 28
dwelling units on said lots. The assumed density and resulting subdivision
parkland dedication provides sufficient parkland to meet the requirements of the
Bozeman Municipal Code." Since improvements in lieu are not proposed/required
a cost per line-item spreadsheet calculation is not necessary.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or need any additional information
to complete your review of this project.
Sincerely,
Aattian. P.E., . -.S.
