RESOLUTION NO. 5546
RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
FOR A PROJECT IN THE MIDTOWN URBAN RENEWAL DISTRICT KNOWN AS THE
LUMBERYARD PROJECT
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Commission (the “Commission”) of the City of
Bozeman, Montana (the “City”), as follows:
Section 1
Recitals.
1.01. On August 15, 2023, this Commission adopted Resolution No. 5505, approving
the Project (as hereinafter defined) as an urban renewal project in the Bozeman Midtown Urban
Renewal District (the “District”) under the Bozeman Midtown Urban Renewal Plan. The Project
consists of a two-phase residential project, the first phase of which is expected to consist of the
design, engineering and construction of 21 studio apartments, 54 one-bedroom apartments, 78
two-bedroom apartments, 18 three-bedroom apartments, and related improvements, and the
second phase of which is expected to consist of the design, engineering and construction of 14
studio apartments, 36 one-bedroom apartments, 52 two-bedroom apartments, 12 three-bedroom
apartments, and related improvements, to be undertaken by Virga Venture I LLC (the
“Developer”). The Developer expects to sell a portion of its property to a third party that will
develop an affordable housing project thereon, expected to consist of not less than 90 units of
housing, each affordable at 60% of area median income, and the public improvements and
infrastructure to be constructed in connection with the Project will support the development of
the affordable housing project.

Resolution 5546, Approving an Amendment to a Development Agreement for a Project in the Midtown URD Known as the Lumberyard Project
2
1.02. Pursuant to such resolution, this Commission approved a form of Development
Agreement with respect to the Project, which included a requirement that restrictive covenants
(the “Restrictive Covenants”) be recorded against property in the District to provide for the
development of the affordable housing project. In the Development Agreement, the Restrictive
Covenants are required to (i) run with the land, (ii) bind, for a period not less than 30 years from
the date of issuance of a certificate of occupancy with respect to such housing units, 90 housing
units to be affordable at 60% area median income (“AMI”), either as rental units or as owner-
occupied units with restrictions on resale prices, with resale and rental prices tied to affordability
at 60% AMI, and (iii) provide that a third-party nonprofit or government entity with experience
in managing affordable housing units must manage the rental or sale of such housing units.
1.03. The form of Development Agreement approved by the Commission included a
proposed form of Restrictive Covenants. However, the Developer has requested that the form of
Restrictive Covenants attached to and referenced in the Development Agreement be replaced
with alternative restrictive covenants, substantially in the form attached to this resolution as
Exhibit A (the “Revised Restrictive Covenants”).
1.04. The Revised Restrictive Covenants (i) run with the land; (ii) bind, for a period not
less than 50 years from the date that the affordable housing project is placed in service, 155
housing units to be income targeted to 60% or less of AMI; and (iii) include robust enforcement
mechanisms and reporting requirements. However, the Revised Restrictive Covenants would
terminate in the event that the affordable housing project is acquired by foreclosure.
Section 2
Approval of the Restrictive Covenants; Amendment of the Development Agreement.
2.01. The Commission hereby finds that the Revised Restrictive Covenants are in
accordance with the City’s requirements set forth in the Development Agreement. The
Commission hereby approves the Revised Restrictive Covenants, substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A, and approves attaching the Revised Restrictive Covenants to the

Resolution 5546, Approving an Amendment to a Development Agreement for a Project in the Midtown URD Known as the Lumberyard Project
3
Development Agreement as Exhibit G thereto. References in the Development Agreement to the
“Restrictive Covenants” shall be read to refer to the Revised Restrictive Covenants.
2.02. The Commission hereby amends Section 3.12 of the Development Agreement to
read as follows:
“3.12. Affordable Housing Covenants. The Developer agrees that, as a condition
to receiving any reimbursement under this Agreement, the Developer will file a
restrictive covenant on the West Block, providing that any development at the West
Block will include a minimum of 90 housing units (the “Restricted Units”), which will be
restricted for a period not less than 30 years for use as housing affordable to households
with incomes equal to 60% area median income (“AMI”). As a condition to
reimbursement hereunder, the Developer shall record the restrictive covenants,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Restrictive Covenants”)
against the West Block. The Restrictive Covenants must (i) run with the land, (ii) bind,
for a period not less than 30 years from the date of issuance of a certificate of occupancy
with respect to the Restricted Units, the Restricted Units to be affordable at 60% AMI,
either as rental units or as owner-occupied units with restrictions on resale prices, with
resale and rental prices tied to affordability at 60% AMI, and (iii) provide that a third-
party nonprofit or government entity with experience in managing affordable housing
units must manage the rental or sale of the Restricted Units robust enforcement
mechanisms and reporting requirements. In addition, the Restrictive Covenants will
provide that the Restricted Units are prohibited from being used, rented or made available
as short term rentals, as that term is defined in the Bozeman Municipal Code. The
affordability requirements in the Restrictive Covenants will be index-based, tied to AMI,
and pursuant to the Restrictive Covenants, permissible rental and sale/resale prices of the
Restricted Units will be based on the most recent affordability data available through the
Housing and Urban Development’s Housing Availability Data System or other similar
affordability data that is available at the time of rental or sale/resale. The Developer’s
covenants described in this Section 3.12 are referred to herein as the “Affordable Housing

Resolution 5546, Approving an Amendment to a Development Agreement for a Project in the Midtown URD Known as the Lumberyard Project
4
Covenants.” The Developer acknowledges and agrees that the Affordable Housing
Covenants are fundamental to the City’s agreements hereunder. The Parties acknowledge
that, as development proceeds at the West Block, it may be necessary or desirable to
record other instruments to implement the Affordable Housing Covenants and provide for
the affordability of the Restricted Units, either in addition to or in replacement of the
Restrictive Covenants to be recorded as a condition to reimbursement of the Developer
under this Agreement, and the Parties agree to cooperate with respect to recording such
other instruments if necessary or desirable. The Developer acknowledges that, as
determined by the City, one-person household pricing relates to studios, two-person
household pricing relates to one bedroom units, three-person household pricing relates to
two bedroom units, and four-person household pricing relates to three bedroom units.
The City and the Developer acknowledge that the Restrictive Covenants terminate in the
event that the affordable housing project is acquired by foreclosure, and the City and the
Developer agree that any such termination of the Restrictive Covenants shall constitute
an event of default hereunder.”
2.03. Approval of the Development Agreement, amended and supplemented as
described in this Section 2, is hereby ratified and confirmed.

1.04. Freestone on Main, LLC (the “Developer”) proposes to undertake the construction
of a new residential and mixed use project, expected to consist of the design, engineering and
construction of approximately 121 residential units and 1,700 square feet of leasable space for
office or retail use, together with related improvements (collectively, the “Project”), on land
located in the DBID at 421, 411 and 407 West Main Street, Bozeman, Montana.
In connection with the Project, the Developer desires to construct improvements to the

development in the M-URD and DBID, including the removal and replacement of aged six-inch
sanitary sewer main lines with new eight-inch sanitary sewer main in Mendenhall Street from 5th

The Commission hereby approves the Infrastructure Improvements as an urban renewal
project under the Act, the DBID Plan and the M-URD Plan. The Infrastructure Improvements

Developer for a portion of the Infrastructure Improvements, there is expected to
be a sound and adequate financial program for the financing of the Infrastructure
Improvements; and

within the meaning of the Act, the DBID Plan and the M-URD Plan.

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City Manager (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to you
certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for providing
to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system. Please read the
information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically

to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you

electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
