RE: Concurrent Construction Request – Gran Cielo Block 14 Phase 1
On behalf of our client, we are requesting concurrent construction for the required public
infrastructure improvements for the proposed Gran Cielo Block 14 project located West of South
27th Avenue and North of Bennett Boulevard within Gran Cielo Phase 1 in Bozeman, MT.
The required public improvements are for the sanitary sewer main extensions to serve the
property. The proposed main runs through the property, North to South and connects to existing
main in Apex Drive. The improvement is required for the proposed development of the
apartment units.
Based on the Bozeman Unified Development Code (UDC), Section 38.270.030.C.1 b&c we
believe the following conditions allowing concurrent construction are met.
38.270.030.C.1.b The water mains, sewer mains and streets to be extended to provide
service to the development are: located within a publicly dedicated right-
of-way or easement; constructed to city standards; are physically adjacent;
are installed and accepted by the city; and are adequate in capacity to
provide necessary service to the proposed development; and comply with
the requirements of this subsection C.1.b and subsection C.1.c of this
section;
Response:
1. The sewer main extension will be within a publicly dedicated right-of-way and/or
easement.
2. The required main extension will be constructed to City Standards.
3. The sewer main extension is on and adjacent to the lot on which the apartment
project is being built.

4. The sewer main extension is the same size as the main being connected to. The
sewer main extension is of adequate capacity to provide necessary service to the
proposed development.
5. The required public utility and access easement is included in this site plan
application for review and processing.
38.270.030.C.1.c Sewer mains and streets shall meet the following requirements:
(1) Any required on-site extensions of sewer mains or streets to be dedicated to the
public shall be located entirely within publicly held easements or rights-of-way;
shall serve only a single lot; are the subject of an irrevocable offer of dedication to
the city upon completion of the project; the development is under the control of a
single developer who shall retain control of the entire project until final
completion; all work is under the supervision of a single general contractor; and
no subdivision of land is involved;
Response:
1. The sewer main extension will serve only one lot and will be located
within an existing Public Right of Way and Easement. The required public
utility and access easement is included in this site plan application for
review.
2. The sewer main extension is being constructed for the development of the
apartment project.
3. The developer agrees to the required irrevocable offer of dedication of the
improvements to the city upon completion of the project.
4. The sewer main extension will be under the control of a single developer
who shall retain control of the entire project until final completion.
5. All work will be under the supervision of a single general contractor.
6. No subdivision of land is involved with this site plan approval.
(2) The DRC shall determine when the standards of this subsection C.1 are met. The
fire department must consider whether adequate fire protection services are
available from existing hydrants, and water supply exists to meet needs during
construction. If adequate fire protection does not exist then concurrent
infrastructure and building construction may only occur under the provisions of
subsection C.1.c.(3) of this section. Based on evaluation by the fire department,
simultaneous construction of infrastructure to be dedicated to the public and
private construction may be permitted only within a defined portion of the site;
