18 . 54. 050 PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCEDURES AND CRITERIA
Approval of a planned unit development shall consist of three
procedural steps:
o Concept Plan Review - Discussion with the Development Review
Committee and the Design Review Board of the applicant's
proposal and any requirements, standards or policies that may
apply; this step represents an opportunity to identify any
major problems that may exist and solutions to those problems
before formal application. Planned unit developments
proposing uses not otherwise allowed in the underlying zoning
district shall also submit the conceptual proposal to the
Planning Board and City Commission for conceptual review.
1/23/92 196
o Preliminary Plan Approval - Submittal of sufficient
information to permit review of the land use relationships,
densities, and the type, size, and location of the principal
design elements of the Planned Unit Development by the
Development Review Committee, Design Review Board, Planning
Board and City Commission. A planned unit development that
will be developed in phases must submit either a preliminary
plan for all phases or else submit a preliminary plan for the
initial phase or phases and submit development guidelines for
all subsequent phases.
o Final Plan Approval - The final plan must be in compliance
with the approved preliminary plan and/or development
guidelines except as provided for in 18.54. 050.C. 2 .a, and
shall be reviewed and approved by DRC and DRB.
A. Concept Plan Review

development proposals.
1. Review Procedures
This is an opportunity for applicants to discuss
requirements, standards, and policies that apply to
development proposals and to identify major problems, so
that they can be solved before a formal application is
made. Concept plan review meetings will be held by the
Development Review Committee and the Design Review Board
and will provide guidance for Planned Unit Development
applications. The general outline of the Planned Unit
Development proposal, presented as graphic sketch plans,
shall be submitted by the applicant and reviewed by the
Development Review Committee and Design Review Board.
Thereafter, the Planning Director shall furnish the
applicant with written comments regarding such
conference, including appropriate recommendations to
inform and assist the applicant prior to preparing the
components of the Planned Unit Development application.
Planned unit developments proposing uses not otherwise
allowed in the underlying zoning district shall also
submit the proposal to the Planning Board and City
Commission for conceptual review.
B. Preliminary Plan Review and Approval
1. Application Process
Upon completion of Concept Plan Review and receipt of the
Planning Director's comments on the concept plan, an
application for preliminary plan approval may be filed
with the Planning Director. If the development project
1/23/92 197
is to be developed in phases and all phases are not fully
detailed in the preliminary plan, development guidelines
shall be required for all phases not fully detailed.
For good cause shown and unique circumstances, or for
proposals containing only one principal use, the Planning
Director may permit the application of a final plan to be
concurrent with the preliminary plan application.

the common facilities not dedicated to public
use. Before expiration of such year, the
Commission shall, upon its own initiative or
upon written request of the organization
theretofore responsible for maintenance, call
a public hearing and give notice of such
hearing to the organization responsible for
maintenance or the property owners of the
planned unit development. At such hearing,
the organization responsible for maintenance
and/or the residents of the development may
show cause why maintenance by the City should
not be continued for a succeeding year. If
the City Commission determines that it is not
necessary for the City to continue such
maintenance, the City shall cease such
maintenance at the time established by the
City Commission. Otherwise the City shall
continue maintenance for the next succeeding
year subject to a similar hearing and
determination at the end of each year
thereafter.
The cost *of maintenance by the City shall be a
lien against the common facilities of the
Planned Unit Development and the private
properties within the development. The City
Commission shall have the right to make
assessments against properties in the
development on the same basis that the
organization responsible for maintenance of
the facilities could make such assessments.
Any unpaid assessment shall be a lien against
1/23/92 213
the property responsible for the same,
enforceable the same as a mortgage against
such property. The City may further foreclose
its lien on the common facility by certifying
the same to the County Treasurer for
collection as in the case of collection of
general property taxes.
(3) Guarantee for Open Space Preservation
Open space shown on the approved final plan
shall not be used for the construction of any
structures not shown on the final plan.

18.54. 080 PHASING OF PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENTS
A. Applications for Phased Planned Unit Developments
If a Planned Unit Development is intended to be developed over
time in two (2) or more separate phases, application for
approval of a Phased Planned Unit Development shall follow
procedures established for Concept Plan review as outlined in
this Chapter. After Concept Plan review is completed, phased
PUDs may be proposed in accordance with one of three
procedures:
1. Application for Simultaneous Approval of All Phases of
the PUD
1/23/92 215
Where all phases of a PUD are planned in detail, an
application for approval of all phases of the PUD may be
made in accordance with Preliminary Plan review and
approval procedures outlined in this Chapter. In such
cases, Preliminary Plans and all required supplemental
information shall clearly set forth phased development
boundaries, schedules, and other details pertaining to
the phasing of the project.
Upon approval of the Preliminary Plan for all phases of
the PUD, each phase of the development may occur in
accordance with the review and approval procedures for
Final Plans as specified in this Chapter.
2. Application for Approval of Initial Phase of the PUD,
With Subsequent Phases Master Planned and Subject to
Development Guidelines
Where the applicant wishes to gain preliminary and final
approval for the initial phase(s) of a PUD, and further
wishes to gain master plan and development guidelines
approval for subsequent phases of the PUD, preliminary
and final plan review and approval procedures for the
initial phase(s) shall be followed in accordance with
this Chapter. A Master Plan and Development Guidelines
for the remaining phases of the development shall be
provided for review and approval as outlined below.
3 . Application for Approval of a Phased PUD Based Only
Master Plan and Development Guidelines
Applications for approval of a phased PUD without
detailed plans for any phase shall not generally be
accepted. However, under unique circumstances and for
good cause shown, the Planning Board may determine that
an application for approval of a Master Plan and
Development Guidelines for a phased PUD may be submitted
without a Preliminary Plan for any phase. When such a
determination has been made, application for approval of
a Master Plan and Development Guidelines may be made in
accordance with Phased PUD approval procedures as set
forth below.
B. Phased PUD Approval Process
Master Plans and Development Guidelines shall be reviewed and
approved according to the procedures established for
Preliminary Plans as established in this Chapter. When a
Master Plan and Development Guidelines for a phased PUD have
been reviewed by the Planning Board and approved by the City
Commission, each phase of the PUD may be developed in
1/23/92 216
accordance with the review and approval procedures set forth
in this Chapter for Final Plan reviews.
C. Phased PUD Review Criteria
In general, the review criteria for phased PUDs shall be the
same as that for PUDs as set forth in Sections 18.54. 050.B.3 .
and 18 . 54 .050.C. 2. of this Code.
In those cases where Master Plans and Development Guidelines
are proposed to govern the development of future phases of the
PUD, The City Commission must determine that the proposed
Master Plan and Development Guidelines are provided in
sufficient detail to support a finding that the phased PUD
will comply with all requirements for PUD approval if
developed in accordance with the approved Master Plan and
Development Guidelines.
DRB and DRC review and approval of Preliminary and Final Plans
for those phases of a PUD which have an approved Master Plan
and Development Guidelines shall assure compliance and
consistency with said Master Plan and Development Guidelines.
Should DRC and DRB determine that proposals to develop
subsequent phases of a PUD are not in compliance with the
approved Master Plan and Development Guidelines, the
determination may be appealed to the City Commission subject
to the provisions of Chapter 18 . 58 of this Code.
D. Phased Planned Unit Development Submittal Requirements
1. Master Plan Submittal Requirements
Master Plans for phased PUDs shall consist of a detailed
Site Plan depicting: 1) existing conditions for the
entire phased PUD as required by Sections 18.54.060 B.

include an appropriate share of the proposed recreational,
open space, and other site and building amenities of the
entire development. The appropriate share of the amenities
for each phase shall be determined for each specific project
at the time of preliminary approval and shall not be based
solely upon a proportional or equal share for the entire site.
Requirements may be made for off-site improvements on a
particular phased project.
F. Final Plans for Phased PUD Developments
Final plans for a planned unit development may be submitted in
phases. The final plan shall conform to the preliminary plan
of a planned unit development, as approved.
G. Duration of Phased PUD Development Guidelines Approval

development guidelines for a planned unit development,
development must commence or the development guidelines must
be reviewed for renewal. Any subsequent approvals of a
preliminary plan must conform to the development guidelines.
18 . 54. 090 ENFORCEMENT OF APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS AND CONDITIONS
The occurrence of either of the following events may subject the
applicant to the enforcement remedies contained in Chapter 18 . 70 of
the City of Bozeman Zoning Ordinance:
A. Failure to comply with any terms, conditions, or limitations
contained on the site plan, landscape plan, building
elevations or other approved documents pertaining to a planned
unit development which has received final approval from the
City.
B. Failure to comply with any conditions on record imposed by the
Planning Board upon its review of the master, preliminary or
final plans for the Planned Unit Development under the
provisions of this Planned Unit Development Ordinance, Chapter
18 . 54 of the Zoning Ordinance.
1/23/92 219
18.54. 100 PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT DESIGN OBJECTIVES AND CRITERIA
A. General
For any planned unit development proposal to be approved it
must first be found, by the City Commission, after
recommendation from the Planning Board, to be in compliance
with this section, 18 .54.100, of the Planned Unit Development
Ordinance of the City of Bozeman.
B. Land Use Classifications
The design objectives and criteria with which a planned unit
development proposal must comply are dependent upon the
designated land use classification of the site proposed for
the planned unit development.
Section 18 .54. 100.E contains two groups of objectives and
criteria against which planned unit developments are reviewed.
All planned unit developments are reviewed against the
objectives and criteria designated for "All Development" .
Each individual planned unit development is then reviewed
against the objectives and criteria established for the land
use classification of the site on which the proposal is to be
located. A planned unit development must satisfy all the
objectives and criteria of both groups. In evaluating planned
unit developments the City may determine that certain criteria
are not applicable or are irrelevant to a particular
development proposal and therefore do not apply to that
proposal.
C. Evaluation Process
The acceptability and performance of a planned unit
development proposal shall be evaluated as follows:
Each of the objectives and criteria for the applicable land
use classification and for "All Development" contained in
Section 18. 54 . 100.E will be answered YES, NO or NOT APPLICABLE
(NA) . A NO response to any of the applicable objectives and
criteria will automatically preclude the development proposal
from further consideration and eventual approval, unless a
variance is granted by. the City Commission. An objective or
criterion is considered to be applicable if it can reasonably
be applied to the development proposal. The applicant shall
clearly demonstrate how the planned unit development
specifically addresses each applicable objective and
criterion.
D. Responsibility for Impact Mitigation
1/23/92 220
D. Responsibility for Impact Mitigation
To protect the character of new and existing neighborhoods
against intrusive and disruptive development, any negative or
adverse impacts shall be effectively mitigated in the Planned
Unit Development plan, as per the following guidelines:
1. When two adjacent parcels are developed simultaneously,
the responsibility for mitigating conflicts is upon the
more intense use.
2 . When a use is the first to develop on two adjacent vacant
parcels, the first use shall provide the necessary buffer
to any reasonable future use as determined by the city.
3 . The second use to develop shall, at the time it develops,
take all additional steps necessary to mitigate
conflicts.
4 . However, when a planned unit development includes a use
or uses which are not otherwise permitted in the
underlying zoning district, the responsibility for impact
mitigation shall lie exclusively with the planned unit
development proposal.
E. Design Objectives and Criteria Evaluation Forms
The city will determine compatibility of a project based upon
the evidence presented during evaluation of the community
design objectives and criteria of Section 18 . 54.100.E of this
Ordinance.
The following forms will be used in evaluating all planned
unit development applications.
