Discussion Items
December Finance Report Emily presented the December 2022 finance report highlighting the second half of the BID assessment will be billed on January 1. The expected income from the Christmas Light Sponsorship was $500 less than budgeted.
BID Program Discussion Emily provided details and expected costs for current programs that are run by the BID. The board discussed the staff time savings by slowly replacing the existing wrought-iron baskets with self-watering baskets that only need to be watered 2-3 times a week. The board suggested
looking at costs for installing 30-40 baskets a year. There has been an ongoing conversation of
purchasing a second flower watering truck for the BID vehicle fleet, Terry Cunningham suggested to have a discussion with Jeff for options of purchasing or leasing a vehicle from another department. The Green Christmas spider was completely replaced in 2022 and the Bozeman Fire Department recommended looking at a quote to replace the red spider next. The
Green spider replacement cost was around $15,000, but an actual quote is being received by
the Bozeman Fire Department to share at a future board meeting. The board also suggested looking at new holiday decoration ideas and what other communities are installing. December Economic Development Director’s Report
Emily provided general updates of board appointments and interviews, annual ethics training,
and the meetings moving to the commission room beginning in early 2023. The BID is still hiring for a part-time maintenance position. The board discussed the upcoming paid parking work sessions and items they would like to be sure are discussed such as meter installation costs and where the revenue from paid parking will be allocated.
