Hello: You are receiving this email update because you have expressed an interest in the futuredevelopment of the Rest Home site. If you would like to be removed from this group, please let me know by responding to this email. As a reminder, Gallatin County is in the very early stages of exploring different housing andchildcare options for this site in an effort to help retain current and recruit new County employees. HRDC, on behalf of Gallatin County, has submitted an Informal Application to theCity of Bozeman and comments are expected back in the next few weeks. The application materials are attached. Please remember that these are very preliminary ideas to spark a conversation with the City of Bozeman. There will be additional engagementopportunities in the future and we will continue to update this group as the project moves forward. Thank you. Susan Riggs, AICP www.groundprint.com406.579.5844 Responses to Informal Checklist Gallatin County Rest Home Informal DRAFT September 22, 2022 1. Project Narrative Gallatin County would like to request informal advice and direction on developing the vacant infill site behind the Gallatin County Rest Home. As the property owner, Gallatin County’s goals are to provide housing to both retain current and recruit new County employees; to provide temporary housing for traveling nurses essential to the operation of the Rest Home; to provide daycare for County Employees; and to contribute to overall supply of workforce housing in the community. The County is working with HRDC, GroundPrint, and Stahly Engineering to better understand development opportunities and constraints in preparation of a scope of work for a future Request for Proposals (RFP) to select a development partner later this year. Note that the total property is 9.8 acres. The new development site would be approximately 5.62 gross acres (4.92 net acres). The only change to the existing Rest Home would be the parking lot configuration. The following objectives have been identified so far: · Explore a variety of unit types (nurse temporary lodging with shared spaces, 1-3 bedroom units) and a variety of building types (mixed use, rowhomes and apartments) · Preference for daycare + community space + nurse units to be located near Oak Springs Park and emphasized as a way to activate the park, connect to the existing urban fabric and create a positive “face” for the new neighborhood. · Contribute to improvements for the existing neighborhood park(s) · Support public pedestrian access/connectivity through the site · Contribute to the public street network · Provide adequate parking · Be a good neighbor and consider an appropriate buffer and/or transition to existing adjacent neighborhoods Predesign efforts thus far have included goal setting, research for housing and childcare needs, research for ownership structure options, employee engagement (surveys and meetings), neighbor/public engagement and ideation including: · 11/29/21 – Gallatin County Staff Housing Meeting · Winter 2021 – Employee Childcare Survey · Spring 2022 – Employee Housing Survey · 3/4/22 – Gallatin County Commission Meeting: Goal Setting · 4/29/22 – Gallatin County Employee Meeting: Goals/Research Sharing · 5/23/22 – In Person Meeting with Neighbors and Interested Parties · 5/25/22 – Virtual Meeting with Neighbors and Interested Parties · 7/6/22 – Gallatin County Commission Meeting: Ideation · 8/9/22 – Gallatin County Commission Meeting: Continued Ideation This narrative includes additional information about this potential community project. Please also refer to the attached exhibits as well as the Drawing Set which includes: Existing Conditions, Proposed Civil Site Plan and Proposed Graphic Site Plan. 2. List of Questions a. Transportation Network – (please also refer to Exhibit A: Potential Future Transportation Network) i. The concept sketches show the extension of Oak Park Drive (a designated local street) through a portion of the subject site to connect Juniper Street with the future likely alignment of Aspen Street. This helps to set up the overall future street grid for this area. The existing buildings (Rest Home and Legion Villa) as well as the existing grades and configuration of parking and accesses make connecting Oak Park Drive (as a standard 60-foot right-of-way) all the way south to Durston Road problematic; however, the County would like to brainstorm ideas for a connector pathway for alternative modes of transportation. With the existing pathway through Larkspur and the presence of the park, Oak Park Drive has the potential to be celebrated for pedestrians and cyclists over cars. ii. Oak Park Drive: will 41 feet be acceptable as a temporary local street standard (assuming remaining 19 feet of ROW could be obtained with future development of property to the east)? Is there a preferred reduced local street section? What are the potential mechanisms for requesting this? iii. Note that the 41-foot section would require approval for slightly decreased separation (about 7’) between boulevard trees and the water main but we view both of these as essential components of the neighborhood. Are there any design considerations we could implement to allow the slightly reduced separation? iv. Juniper & Oak Park Drive intersection – will likely need to be nonstandard due to existing conditions; what are the concerns/options for short term and long- term development of this intersection? Could we consider street art here? b. Considering that Oak Meadows Park is directly across the street from the site and that there are 12 parks within a ½ mile radius, will “cash in lieu of parkland” and/or “improvements in lieu of parkland” be acceptable? c. The County is considering the pros and cons of subdividing the Rest Home from the vacant portion of the property. Would there be any known issues with a 2-lot minor subdivision? d. Any there any off-site public infrastructure requirements that would be tied to development of this site? e. While there are two public street frontages planned to be adjacent to the site, the County is planning for additional tertiary access through the Rest Home site? What site alterations to the Rest Home would be required in this case? f. We understand that the triplex rowhomes could be developed either with sprinklers and shared services OR without sprinklers and with individual services. Is there flexibility for spacing of water and sewer in this second option? 3. Data regarding the existing zoning, site and building conditions, adjacent uses, available utilities and other related general information about adjacent land uses. a. Existing zoning – the site is zoned R-4 (Residential High Density). The proposed uses include triplex rowhomes, seven-plex rowhomes, apartment buildings, and mixed use (day care with nurse lodging above). These are all permitted principal uses in the R-4 zone. Details regarding the daycare and nurse lodging will be determined in the future. This informal application contemplates daycare for 45 children and rooms for nine nurses simply for discussion purposes. b. Site and building conditions – the existing property includes 9.8 acres. The vacant northern portion includes 5.6 acres. Netting out a portion of Oak Park Drive reveals a developable site of approximately 4.9 acres. The exiting Rest Home and site improvements would remain with access for new homes allowed through the Rest Home site. Other noteworthy site constraints include: i. Extremely limited adjacent street network ii. Need for pedestrian connectivity through subject property iii. Topography generally falls to northwest corner of site c. Adjacent Land Uses – i. North: Oak Meadows Park ii. South: Rest Home, Durston Road, Bozeman High School iii. East: Legion Villa, undeveloped privately owned property in the county (owner has expressed a desire NOT to develop at this time which is a key reason for the request to make Oak Park Drive ¾ of a local street) iv. West: Walton Homestead Neighborhood (a mix of rowhomes, townhomes and single household detached homes); note that a pedestrian easement is located midblock along Matheson Way. d. Available Utilities – i. There are existing adjacent water mains in the Rest Home property and in the Juniper Street right-of-way. ii. There are existing sewer mains along the subject site’s eastern boundary and across the upper third of the site. iii. Existing utilities are shown on the Existing Conditions drawing. Proposed utilities are shown on the Proposed Site Plan. 4. Location/vicinity map, including area within one-half mile of the site. Please see the attached exhibit which show the ½ mile radius of the site with zoning as well as a likely future transportation network. 5. If existing structures are 50+ years old, provide color photos of all sides of the building. The Rest Home was built in 1960; however, this application does not include any changes to the Rest Home building. 6. If parkland is required, explain how you propose to satisfy the requirements per Section 38.420, BMC. As noted in the list of questions, this informal application seeks City input regarding the ability to use the cash-in-lieu (and/or improvements in lieu) of dedicated parkland option to improve the adjacent Oak Meadows Park. Parkland calculations are included in the site statistics data on the Proposed Site Plan in the Drawing Set. INF INFORMAL REVIEW CHECKLIST INFORMAL APPLICATION PROCEDURE Informal review is an opportunity for an applicant to discuss requirements, standards and procedures that apply to the development proposal. While the conceptual review process is a general consideration of the development proposal, informal review provides an opportunity for the applicant to have the City consider the development proposal in greater detail prior to formal submittal. With the informal review, the applicant has the opportunity to attend the Development Review Committee meeting to discuss with the committee both major and minor problems, specific challenges, critical path elements, and project details. Informal review applications can also be reviewed by other advisory boards such as the Design Review Board. Comments are provided in writing to the applicant following the review. Informal review is an alternative option to the concept review process for developments subject to Section 38.230.090, BMC. INFORMAL REVIEW CHECKLIST 1. Project Narrative providing a description of the overall project including design intent, project goals, project time frame, proposed uses, site improvements, buildings, anticipated parking demand and source of off street parking. If phasing is proposed, include a description of each individual phase as related to the overall improvements. 2. List of your questions regarding specific project to receive feedback from City staff. 3. Data regarding the existing zoning, site and building conditions, adjacent uses, available utilities and other related general information about adjacent land uses. 4. Location/vicinity map, including area within one-half mile of the site. 5. If existing structures are 50+ years old, provide color photos of all sides of the building. 6. If parkland is required, explain how you propose to satisfy the requirements per Section 38.420, BMC. APPLICATION SET 1. Create and submit a Planning application using the ProjectDox portal; a.
