SPECIAL USE PERMIT CHECKLIST
SPECIAL USE PERMIT APPLICATION PROCEDURE
A Special Use Permit (SUP) allows a use that wouldn’t typically be allowed in an area but would be compatible with existing uses. A
SUP is required for all uses listed as “special” in the Bozeman Unified Development Code (UDC). This handout provides details for
the application requirements required to apply for a SUP. A SUP is an administrative review process.
