Improvement Agreement for Utility Upgrades to 5th & Main
Ellie presented that the proposed Sewer Replacement Improvement Agreement with Midtown,
Downtown URD, City of Bozeman and Developer; includes a much-needed upgrade to a 100+ year-
old sewer line spanning between the Downtown and Midtown URD districts for a large residential
development on 5th and Main, in the Downtown URD district. This is the same project who has also
been awarded with a DURD Residential Incentive Grant with 121 units, including 85 studios and one-
bedrooms. The project details and breakdown of costs are attached and detailed below:
City Sewer Fund $500,000
Midtown URD: $464,000 (58% property area) paid at CoO for the “Development”
Downtown URD: $336,000 (42% property area) paid at CoO for the “Development”
Developer: Costs over $1.3M to be reimbursed
Engineering has provided us with two separate “Improvements Agreements” one for TIF funds and
one for the City Sewer funds and between the entities above, that the developer would use when their
money is going in. The Downtown URD does have current funds in FY24 allocated to Utility
Improvements and Downtown Improvement Plan General Implementation. Utility Improvements are
also a top priority outlined in the 2019 Downtown Bozeman Improvement Plan.
Nick Walton and Jake Steding provided a presentation of the development to be built.
ACTION: Nick Zelver moved to approve funds to be reimbursed upon receiving the
Certificate of Occupancy from the City of Bozeman.
