be adhered to by the owner of the land, successors or assigns, are binding upon the
owner of the land, their successors or assigns, must be consented to in writing, and
must be recorded as such with the county clerk and recorder's office by the property
owner prior to the issuance of any building permits, final plan approval or
commencement of the conditional use.
E. Applications for special use permits may be approved, conditionally approved or denied by
the review authority. If an application is denied, the denial constitutes a determination that
the applicant has not shown that the conditions required for approval do exist.
F. If the special use permit has been approvedgranted, the permit will be issued upon the
signature of the review authority after completion of all conditions and final plan.
G. Termination/revocation of special use permit approval.
1. Special use permits are approved based on an analysis of current local circumstances
and regulatory requirements. Over time these things may change and the use may no
longer be appropriate to a location. A special use permit will be considered as
terminated and of no further effect if:
a. After having been commenced, the approved use is not actively conducted on the
site for a period of two continuous calendar years;
b. Final zoning approval to reuse the property for another use is granted;
c. The use or development of the site is not begun within the time limits of the final
plan approval in section 38.230.140.
2. A special use which has terminated may be reestablished on a site by either, the review
and approval of a new special use permit application, or a determination by the
community development director that the local circumstances and regulatory
requirements are essentially the same as at the time of the original approval. A denial
of renewal by the review authority may not be appealed. If the review authority
determines that the special use permit may be renewed on a site then any conditions of
approval of the original special use permit are also renewed.
3. If activity begins for which a special use permit has been given final approval, all
activities must comply with any conditions of approval or code requirements. Should
there be a failure to maintain compliance the city may revoke the approval through the
procedures outlined in section 38.200.160.

request for reasonable accommodation with the application for discretionary approval.
3. Review authority.
a. Community development director. A request for reasonable accommodation must
be reviewed by the community development director if no approval is sought
other than the request for reasonable accommodation. No fee may be charged for
the review of such a request for reasonable accommodation.
b. Other review authority. A request for reasonable accommodation submitted for
concurrent review with another discretionary land use application must be
reviewed by the authority responsible for the discretionary land use application.
No fee in addition to that charged for the other discretionary land use application
may be charged for the review of such a request for reasonable accommodation.
4. Review.
a. Community development director. The director must make a written
determination within 20 calendar days of the application being deemed complete
and either grant, grant with conditions, or deny a request for reasonable
accommodation. If necessary to reach a determination on the request for
reasonable accommodation, the director may request further information from the
applicant consistent with applicable non-discrimination laws, specifying in detail
the information that is required. In the event that a request for additional
information is made, the 20-day period to issue a decision must be stayed until the
applicant responds to the request.
b. Other review authority. The written determination on whether to grant or deny the
request for reasonable accommodation must be made by the authority responsible
for the discretionary land use application in compliance with the applicable
review procedure for the discretionary review.
5. Notice.
a. Community development director. No advance notice or public hearing is
required for consideration of reasonable accommodation requests by the
community development director.
b. Other review authority. Requests for reasonable accommodation subject to review
by other review authorities require public notice and a public review process
pursuant to the requirements for the other discretionary land use application that is
the subject of the review, including all public notice provisions pursuant to section
38.220.420.
6. Balancing rights and requirements. In reviewing applications for requests for
reasonable accommodation, the city must balance:
a. The privacy rights and reasonable request of an applicant for confidentiality; with

Ordinance 2124, Removing Conditional Use Permit Process From The Bozeman Municipal Code
Ord. 2124 Page 15 of 49
b. The land use requirements for notice and public hearing, factual findings and
rights to appeal, in the city's requests for information, considering an application,
preparing written findings and maintaining records for a request for reasonable
accommodation.
c. Any document identifying the disability or medical condition of any specific
person must be treated as confidential and is subject to disclosure by the city for
any reason, including for compliance with the Open Records Act, unless ordered
to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction and notice is given to the person who
provided the document to the city. Specifically, any medical records regardless of
source, including statements of medical providers, must not be disclosed. For any
other type of document, such as an application or determination, the document
may be subject to disclosure, but only after the nature or description of the
person's disability or medical condition is redacted by the city. A statement
regarding the city's handling of information subject to this provision must be
printed on the city's reasonable accommodation application form, posted on the
city's website, and printed at the bottom of any written document issued by the
city determining a reasonable accommodation application.
SECTION 17
Paragraph 38.280.010.B of the Bozeman Municipal Code be amended as follows:
B. Except as otherwise specified in this division, the right to operate and maintain a
nonconforming use must terminate when the structure or structures housing such use are
destroyed by any means to an extent of more than 50 percent of its replacement cost at the
time of destruction. However, in the event of damage by natural disaster to the extent
described herein, a said nonconforming use or uses may be reestablished through a
conditional special use permit procedure as set forth in division 38.230 of this chapter. Such
restoration must comply to the maximum extent reasonably feasible with the requirements
of this chapter.
SECTION 18
Section 38.280.020. Changes to or expansions of nonconforming uses of the Bozeman Municipal
Code be amended as follows:
Sec. 38.280.020. Changes to or expansions of nonconforming uses.
A. Lawful nonconforming non-residential use.
1. A lawful nonconforming non-residential use must not be changed except in
conformance with the use requirements of the zone in which it is located. Except,
however, a lawful nonconforming non-residential use may be changed to another
DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F011FDD-E8E3-4437-A9E7-2224AC449EB9
Ordinance 2124, Removing Conditional Use Permit Process From The Bozeman Municipal Code
Ord. 2124 Page 16 of 49
nonconforming use, provided that the proposed use is not of greater intensity than the
original use, as determined by the criteria in section 38.280.020.A.2, and that a
conditional special use permit is obtained from the review authority. A lawful
nonconforming non-residential use may be expanded only through the granting of a
conditional special use permit by the review authority. In considering the
appropriateness of the conditional use permit application, the review authority must
weigh the criteria set forth in 38.230.110. In addition, the review authority must
consider whether the expansion is reasonable, natural and incidental to the growth and
use of an existing business. In general, proposals to expand nonconforming uses must
not be approved if the expansion would encompass new land or property which was
not in use at the time of the enactment of zoning or a change in zoning.
2. To approve a conditional special use permit to change or expand a nonconforming non-
residential use, the review authority must determine that the proposed nonconforming
use is more appropriate to the district than the existing nonconforming use, and that no
unsafe or unhealthy conditions are perpetuated. In making such a determination, the
review authority must weigh the following criteria in addition to the criteria applicable
to all conditional special use permits:
a. Traffic impacts, both on-site and off-site;
b. Off-street parking and loading requirements;
c. The visual impact on the surrounding area;
d. The degree of compliance with the adopted growth policy and this chapter;
e. The level of conflict with other uses in the surrounding area;
f. The presence of other nonconformities in the surrounding area;
g. The degree to which any existing unsafe or hazardous conditions would be
mitigated;
h. The viability of the subject structure; and
i. On-site and off-site impacts from noise, dust, smoke, surface or groundwater
contamination, or other environmental impacts.
B. Lawful nonconforming residential use.
1. A lawful nonconforming residential use may be reduced in terms of the number of
dwelling units, in an effort to achieve greater conformance with the underlying zoning
designation, through the review process required by divisions 38.340 and 38.230 of
this chapter, without the need to obtain a conditional special use permit from the
review authority. A lawful nonconforming residential use must not be permitted to
increase the number of dwelling units.
2. The maintenance and reconstruction of existing nonconforming residential dwelling
units is allowed, in compliance with applicable fire and building codes, including
expansion of up to 20 percent of the existing total residential area, without the need of
DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F011FDD-E8E3-4437-A9E7-2224AC449EB9
Ordinance 2124, Removing Conditional Use Permit Process From The Bozeman Municipal Code
Ord. 2124 Page 17 of 49
a conditional special use permit, as long as the number of dwelling units on the lot is
not increased. In instances where new construction is allowed, all appropriate
approvals such as a certificate of appropriateness or building permit must be obtained
prior to the initiation of construction.
SECTION 19
Section 38.280.040. Nonconforming structures of the Bozeman Municipal Code be amended as
follows:
Sec. 38.280.040. Nonconforming structures.
A. Any nonconforming structure lawfully existing upon the effective date of the ordinance
from which this chapter is derived may be continued at the size and configuration existing
upon such date except as hereinafter specified, or in the case of signage as specified in
division 38.560 of this chapter and lighting as specified in section 38.570.110.
B. The right to operate and maintain a nonconforming structure terminates when the structure
is destroyed by any means to an extent of more than 50 percent of its replacement cost at the
time of destruction. However, in the event of damage by natural disaster to the extent
described herein, said nonconforming nonresidential structure may be reestablished through
a conditional special use permit procedure as set forth in division 38.230 of this chapter.
Such restoration must comply to the maximum extent feasible with the requirements of this
chapter.
C. Normal maintenance of a lawful nonconforming structure is permitted, including necessary
structural repairs provided such structural repairs do not enlarge the structure or intensify
the use.
SECTION 20
Paragraph 38.300.110.G of the Bozeman Municipal Code be amended as follows:
G. Northeast historic mixed-use district—intent and purpose.
1. The intent of the northeast historic mixed-use district is to provide recognition of an
area that has developed with a blend of uses not commonly seen under typical zoning
requirements. The unique qualities and nature of the area are not found elsewhere in
the city and should be preserved as a place offering additional opportunities for
creative integration of land uses. The intent of this area is to allow private and case-by-
case determination of the most appropriate use of land in a broad range of both non-
residential and residential uses. Standards for buffering between different land uses are
deliberately not as high as standards elsewhere in the community as it is assumed that
persons choosing to locate in this area are aware of the variety of possible adjacent
land uses and have accepted such possibilities as both acceptable and desirable. It is
DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F011FDD-E8E3-4437-A9E7-2224AC449EB9
Ordinance 2124, Removing Conditional Use Permit Process From The Bozeman Municipal Code
Ord. 2124 Page 18 of 49
expected that the lots within this district will continue to develop under a variety of
uses which may increase or decrease in scope in any given portion of the district.
2. The clear intent of this district is to support a mix and variety of non-residential and
residential uses. Nothing in division 38.300 of this article shall be interpreted to be
discouraging or prejudicial to any listed use except as set forth as principal and
conditional special uses.
SECTION 21
Division 38.310 Permitted Uses of the Bozeman Municipal Code be amended as follows:
Sec. 38.310.010. Interpretation of land use tables.
A. Uses in the various districts are depicted in Tables 38.310.030—38.310.040. Principal uses
are indicated with a "P," conditional uses are indicated with a "C," special uses are indicated
with a "S", accessory uses are indicated with an "A" and uses which are not permitted
within the district are indicated by a "-."
B. Additional uses for wireless facilities are contained in sections 38.370.010 to 38.370.040.
C. The uses listed are deliberately broad and some are given special definitions in article 7 of
this chapter. The intent of this method is to provide general guidance for uses while
allowing the unique needs and circumstances of each proposal to be specifically addressed
through the review process. Some uses are the subject of special regulations contained in
division 38.360 of this article.
D. Clarification of permitted uses and special conditions:
1. If a * appears after the use, then the use is defined in article 7.
2. Where a code section is referenced after the use, then the use is subject to the
additional standards in that code section.
3. If a number appears in the box, then the use may be allowed subject to development
condition(s) described in the footnotes immediately following the table. If there are
multiple numbers, then the use is subject to all applicable development conditions.
4. Where a number with a "sf" reference appears below a P or CS in the box, it means
that the use is permitted or conditionally permitted up to the (maximum) listed square
footage in gross building area.
5. If more than one letter-number combination appears in the box (e.g., P2, 3), the use is
allowed in the zone subject to different sets of limitations or conditions depending on
the review process indicated by the letter, the general requirements of the code and the
specific conditions indicated in the development condition with the corresponding
number immediately following the table.

Ord. 2124 Page 19 of 49
Sec. 38.310.020. Classification of uses; community development director and city
commission authority.
A. When a use is not clearly defined or otherwise identified in the code so that it may be
determined if it is allowed within a district the community development director must
determine the appropriate classification of a particular use. In making this determination,
the community development director must find:
1. That the use is the same as one or more uses permitted in the district wherein it is
proposed to be located; or
2. That the use is so similar to one or more uses permitted in the district wherein it is
proposed to be located as to be interpreted as the same, so long as:
a. The use and its operation are comparable with the uses permitted in the district
wherein the use is proposed to be located, in terms of:
i. The amount, type, and pattern of vehicular traffic anticipated for the use, and
ii. The expected outdoor uses and activities associated with the use;
b. The use will not cause substantial injury to values of property in the neighborhood
or district wherein it is proposed to be located; and
c. Neither the intent of this chapter nor the intent of the district will be abrogated by
such classification.
Persons objecting to a decision of the community development director regarding a classification
of a use carry the burden of proof to establish error in the decision.
B. If a question arises concerning the appropriate classification of a particular use, the
community development director may submit the question to the city commission to
determine whether the particular use is the same or so similar as to be interpreted the same
as a listed permitted or conditional special use. In making such a determination, the city
commission must find that the criteria set forth in either subsection A.1 or 2 of this section
are met.
C. If a specific use is not listed and cannot be interpreted to be the same, or so similar as to be
interpreted the same, as a listed accessory, principal or conditional special use, the use must
not be allowed. However, an amendment to the text of this chapter may be submitted for
review and approval pursuant to the requirements of this chapter to allow such use as a
listed principal, conditional special, or accessory use (as defined in section division
38.700.020).

conference must include the following information with regard to the proposed
facility: a. Location; b. Overall height; c. Number of antennas proposed, including those of other providers to be
collocated;
d. Type of wireless communication services to be provided; and e. Coordination of ground equipment shelters. 7. Adequate review of applications may require the city to retain consultants or other third party assistance to review an application. In such event the applicant must reimburse

4. Any emergency power supply or other equipment installed at the facility must comply
with section 38.520.070.
5. No facilities which require employees to be present on a routine basis may be established in residential areas, with the exception of periodic maintenance activities, unless the zone allows offices as a permitted or conditional use and appropriate review has been completed.

by action of the city at the facility or landowner's expense.
7. Any modifications to existing wireless sites shall only occur in compliance with the review procedures required in section 38.370.030.
8. Denial of an application must be made only after the review body has determined that
specific criteria of this chapter cannot be met. Said determination must be made in
