PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
In order for city staff to efficiently review your project in a timely manner, the application materials and the
plan sets submitted must be clear, complete and thorough. This handout provides additional details for the
application requirements outlined in the project checklists. If the requirements of this handout are met with
your application it will minimize the delays that can occur when an application is unclear, incomplete or not
formatted correctly. These requirements are mandatory. If the application materials do not meet these
standards they will require correction,which will delay your project.
GENERAL PLAN REQUIREMENTS
1. All plans and drawings must be accurately drawn, using a conventional scale such as
1:20 or 1:1/4, and with only one scale per sheet. Details may contain a separate scale if clearly labeled.
2. All text and annotations should be at a font size to enable it to be easily read - 10 point or more. Many
plan sets require that 11" x 17" plan sizes be submitted. The text and annotations on plans that size must
be readable when printed at that size.If plans are unreadable at the 11"x 17"size,they will not be accepted
for review.
3• Plan sizes must meet minimum and maximum size requirements. No plans outside of the stated sizes will
be accepted.
4• Plans/drawings must not contain disclaimers such as "Not to Scale" and "Do Not Scale."
(perspectives excepted) and drawings must be drawn true to the stated scale(s).
S. Plans must not contain disclaimers such as "Preliminary" and "Not for Construction."
6. Provide all relevant measured dimensions annotated on the plans/drawings. For example label typical
dimensions of parking spaces, drive accesses, drive aisles and sidewalks.
7. Consistent detailing. All existing and proposed site plan elements (e.g., sidewalks, parking spaces, fire
lanes, building foot prints, etc.) must be labeled (unless a legend is provided) and dimensioned (unless a
detail is provided).
8. The clearest way to present proposals is to group "existing" and "proposed" drawings side by side, using
the same scale for both.
9. Each sheet and/or drawing must have a title box with the drawing name, sheet number and date clearly
visible in bold. If sheets are updated or revised a new date must be applied to the sheet. For example, the
civil utility plans might be labeled: C2.0 Utilities 05-01-2017. This is important as this will also be the
digital file name. See naming protocol below.
10. The use of a title sheet for all general information, project team, data, calculations (parking, parkland,
open spaces, and table of contents is required. The title must appear in bold letters across the top of the
cover sheet. If the site plan includes a conditional use include the words "and Conditional Use."
11. If the project is part of an existing development the name of the existing development must appear in the
title. For example, "Arbys at Bozeman Gateway' or"Building K at the Cannery District."
12. The vicinity map with zoning must be on the cover page.
13. A table of contents or plan schedule for all sheets in the plan set must be included on the title sheet with
a date for each sheet. If revisions are required,the title sheet must be updated to reflect all revised sheets
with a new date.
14. Fully annotated plans and drawings are more understandable, e.g. if a line is shown on the plan between
two properties or other conditions such as easements,it must be annotated by adding descriptors to clarify
the site condition.

15. A legend for all line types and symbols must be included on plan sets.
16. The plan sheets must not be overly congested with line types. When in doubt produce an extra sheet that
separates the information. For example, produce a separate utility and easement sheet for utilities to
clarify that information if the overall site plan contains too many lines and line types.
17. In general, the plan sheets are where most project information must be included. Separate cut sheets,
exhibits, and summary tables on 8 1/2" by 11" will not be accepted. The only exception is for project
narratives,property owners'association documents,SID documents, easements,agreements,maintenance
plans,water rights information,payback district information,contracts,deeds,weed plans,and standalone
technical reports such as traffic studies, wetland reports, sewer and water reports, environmental, etc.
PARKLAND TRACKING REQUIREMENTS
1. Parkland tracking on plans is required in 38.27.020BMC. This only applies to projects with residential
development or residential units.
2. Documentation of compliance with the parkland dedication requirements of Section 38.27.020, UDC
must be provided with the final plat, preliminary plat layout (park site plan) or individual development
site plan (if previously subdivided). A parkland dedication tracking table showing the parkland
requirements for the overall subdivision and the method of meeting the parkland dedication shall be
included on the site plan. The table shall explicitly state how much parkland acreage, cash-in-lieu, or
value of improvements-in-lieu was approved and allocated, as well as what is being proposed, for each
lot of the subdivision or site development.
3. If residential development, each phase, lot or individual site plan of the development must have a copy
of the parkland dedication tracking table provided below included on the site plan. Contact the Parks
Department if you have questions on how to fill out the table.
4. If improvements in lieu are proposed for an existing park within the subdivision, a detailed park
improvement site plan, including layout and product manufacturer cut sheets with a cost estimate for
all improvements must be provided for Parks Department review.The Parks Department will provide a
comparison chart indicating the value of code-required basic improvements versus proposed
improvements.
5. Unless previously provided, provide the appropriate waiver of protest for future park maintenance
district statement on the plat or site plan. Contact the Parks Department if you are uncertain if a waiver
has been granted.
6. The parkland dedication tracking table that must be included on plans is as follows.If you have questions
on how to fill out this table contact the Parks Department.

COLOR AND MATERIAL PALETTE
1. Color and material palettes are required for all new buildings and structures. A color and material palette
must include all the proposed exterior building materials for all structures and site details.
2. The exterior building materials must include all siding,trim,roofing,windows,stairways,doors,balconies,
railings windows, storefront, glass/glazing, walls, mechanical screening, trash enclosures, accessory
equipment enclosures (generator, etc.), awnings and other architectural elements.
3. For smaller less complex projects that are using readily known building materials, a color and material
palette may be presented in color on an 11" x 17" sheet that includes a color picture of the material and
the specification. Each material must be keyed to the building elevations.
4. For larger, more complex projects the palette must be presented on a physical board with samples of the
proposed building materials in their proposed color. Each sample must have a specification and be keyed
to the building elevations.
S. Color perspectives that depict the building accurately and with the proposed building materials are
encouraged to be submitted with each application. The color perspective does not satisfy the color and
materials palette requirement.
APPLICATION SETS
1. Application sets are independent sets of information that include one copy of all information submitted
with the application.
2. Application sets that include legal documents, letters, technical reports, narratives, studies and other
documentation in addition to plan sheets must include a copy of each item in each application set. All
documentation of this type must have a visible and clear date of preparation on the front sheet of the
document or study.
3. Three total sets of all information are required with most applications. Two of the sets must include full
size plans, one set may include 11" x 17" plans. Full size plan set sizes must not exceed 24" x 36."
4. Application sets must be bound and two hole punched at the top of the page.Three ring binders with three
hole punch are not accepted.
5. If 11" x 17" plans are included, do not trifold them. Fold them in half, then fold the right half back on itself
at a 45 degree angle in order to accommodate a two hole punch at the top. Plans must be accessible to be
unfolded when bound in a two hole file.
6. Application sets should be organized and collated in the following general order 1) cover sheet/routing
sheet 2) applications and checklists; 3) narratives/responses/photographs; 4) legal docs: CC&R's,
easements, deeds,agreements, CIL water rights,etc.; 5) plans; 6) appendices: standalone technical reports
7. Project narratives and responses must not be overwritten or provided on the application checklists. If
responding to a checklist item provide a response on a separate document.
8. Plans must be grouped by discipline: Civil, Architectural, Landscape and Electrical/Lighting.
9. All plans must be stapled together and folded to a final size of 8 1/z" x 11" or 8 1/z" x 14".If the plan set is
large the plans must be stapled into sets by discipline and folded independently. State law requires us to
keep a full size paper copy of all plans in our files. The plan sets must be folded so that they can be filed in
the project archives.

DIGITAL COPIES AND NAMING PROTOCOL
The city requires digital copies of all planning applications in order to produce cost savings, eliminate
paper waste and enhance the flow of information between the city, external agencies, neighborhoods and
the applicant. The digital copy must include a copy of all documents and plan sheets submitted as part of
the application.The following requirements apply to digital copies.
1. Two digital copies are required with most applications. The copies may be on CD or on a USB drive.
2. The digital copies must be separated into three categories: Documents, Plans and Appendices.
3• Naming protocol. Each individual document or plan sheet must have a proper name and date.
The name should be easily understandable. Groups of plan sheets or document sets with multiple
types of documents will not be accepted. Plan sheets must include the sheet number. For example a
document might be labeled "Al Development Review application 05-01-2017" or "City Parkland
Deed 05-01-17." Plan sheets are required to be listed individually. For example a plan sheet might
be labeled "A300 Floor Plan level 1 and 2 05-01-2017" or "PM Photometric Plan 05-01-17." Do not
include other tab,section or other references in the digital file names.
4. No individual files will be accepted that are larger than 5 mb. Files that are larger must be broken
down into smaller files.
5. Label all CD's with the project name and date. Attach a small tag to all USB drive with the project
name and date.
