HEALTHY, ADAPTIVE & EFFICIENT BUILDINGS
RESPONSIBLE & RELIABLE CLEAN ENERGY SUPPLY
VIBRANT & RESILIENT NEIGHBORHOODS
DIVERSE & ACCESSIBLE TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS
COMPREHENSIVE & SUSTAINABLE WASTE REDUCTION
REGENERATIVE GREENSPACE, FOOD SYSTEMS, & NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
15
BALANCING THE COST OF SUSTAINABILITY
-Cost of status quo is rising
-Cost of sustainable infrastructure is falling
-Drought, Wildfire, Extreme Temperature, and Flood events increased
-Costs more to clean up later
-Upfront cost leads to future savings
16
SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY
-Low Impact Design already encouraged
-Stormwater Management Manual and Design Standards update underway
-New landscaping and water conservation regulations underway
-Awaiting State Department WUI standards guidance
-Sustainability Division looking into Solar- Ready regulations
-Composting and Recycling Programs
-Gallatin County Sensitive Lands Protection Plan

DISCUSSION ITEMS
-What level of implementation
is appropriate for multi-
household development?
-Low: 20% EV Capable
-Medium: 2% EV Installed for surface lots
or parking garages,100% EV Capable for
individual garages
-High: 10% EV Installed, 20% EV Ready,
70% EV Capable
-Should EV chargers be required
to be installed in all commercial
parking lots? EV Ready or
Capable?
City Commission InputElectric Vehicle Charging
-For Multi-household development require high level of implementation - more EV ready and capable than installed
-All commercial parking lots should be EV capable
-Additional thoughts:
-Need to be cognizant of variety of parking
lot sizes
-Need to consider dark sky compliance and
scrreening of mechanical equipment
19
ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING
-Currently allowed, not required
-There are 456 registered electric vehicles (EVs) in Gallatin County
-92% of EV charges occur in homes
-Costs 35% less to maintain an EV than a standard internal combustion engine
-Vehicle manufacturers are targeting 50% electric vehicles by 2025

FUTURE PROOFING
-Costs more to retrofit than to install infrastructure at initial construction
22
PREFERRED PARKING LOT SCENARIO
-Example of high level EV scenario preferred by City Commission
-Sample multi-household parking lot containing 34 parking spaces
23
-Single Household: At least one EV-Ready parking space per dwelling unit.
-Multi-household: Two EV-ready/installed parking spaces + 20% EV-Capable
-Commercial: Two EV-ready/installed parking spaces + 20% EV-Capable
