Improvements
Downtown URD Guiding Verbiage:
In 1995, the City Commission adopted the Urban Renewal Plan for downtown Bozeman which was subsequently
amended in 2015. The intent and purpose of the Urban Renewal Plan emphasizes:
1. Bozeman’s historical character as a “working” downtown shall be maintained.
2. Traffic movement and access shall be designed with the emphasis on the downtown as a designation
rather than improving the flow of through traffic.
3. The facilitation of private/public partnerships is encouraged in the implementation of the Plan.
4. Objectives shall be accomplished by incentives whenever possible.
5. Private property rights will be respected.
6. Administrative practices shall be conducted in a constructive manner which fosters cooperation.
7. This Plan is further detailed, refined, prioritized and implemented by the “Downtown Improvement Plan”
which outlines specific programs and projects consistent with the Urban Renewal Plan.
The Urban Renewal Plan established nine “Guiding Principles” to provide direction for improving Bozeman’s
historic downtown. The Urban Renewal Study Committee considered the first three principles more important
than the next three with the last three the least important. However, the Committee deemed all nine principles to
24
be vital to achieving the vision for downtown. Key implementation actions were identified for each principle (may
apply to multiple principles but are only listed once below).
1. Strengthen downtown’s economic vitality
• Provide more, better managed parking; retain public offices and anchor businesses; facilitate
commercial development; eliminate unnecessary regulatory barriers to reinvestment; enable high
density housing; eliminate through truck traffic and restore Main Street as pedestrian-friendly
2. Improve the safety, security and health of the district
• Improve traffic flow emphasizing downtown as a destination; improve public works; improve night-time
lighting; improve sidewalks; increase police presence; improve alley and parking lot appearance and
safety
3. The image of downtown shall be continuously improved
• Improve streetscape aesthetics and amenities; enhance appearance of and accessibility to Bozeman
Creek; improve trash removal
4. Downtown’s accessibility shall be improved
• Provide effective public transportation; better accommodate bicycles; reduce reliance on private
automobiles
5. “Community Partnership” is fundamental to downtown’s success
• Encourage growth of cultural activities; preserve historic character
6. Downtown’s diversity shall be facilitated
7. The cost of projects and programs shall be weighed against their benefits
8. Downtown shall become more user friendly
9. Cultural activities shall be nurtured and expanded downtown

Memorandum
REPORT TO:Downtown Area Urban Renewal District Board
FROM:Ellie Staley, Executive Director
SUBJECT:Pedlet Pilot Program Review
MEETING DATE:March 25, 2025
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:Plan/Report/Study
RECOMMENDATION:Discussion.
STRATEGIC PLAN:4.4 Vibrant Downtown, Districts & Centers: Promote a healthy, vibrant
Downtown, Midtown, and other commercial districts and neighborhood
centers – including higher densities and intensification of use in these key
areas.
BACKGROUND:
After the idea of a "parklet" was included in the 2019 Downtown
Improvement plan, more research was needed to see how this may work in
our downtown community. The Downtown Urban Renewal District (DURD)
next developed a "Parklet & Pedlet Program Assessment Report ” in 2021 to
explore ways to enhance pedestrian and café experiences in the downtown
area.
After extensive research, the "pedlet" model was selected as the most
suitable option for Bozeman, particularly for expanding narrow sidewalk
spaces on side streets off Main Street. Unlike parklets, which occupy parking
spaces and create additional seating, pedlets serve as a pedestrian bypass,
allowing restaurants to use the existing sidewalk space for outdoor seating
while maintaining ADA-compliant walkways.
We have discovered a design and manufacturer that we feel fits within the
overall streetscape design in downtown. We also have interest and
excitement from the property and business owner to participate in the pilot
project. See attached pilot program outline and fiscal details below for more
information.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None.
ALTERNATIVES:None.
FISCAL EFFECTS:$30,000 is currently allocated in the FY25 DURD Budget for pedlet
27
infrastructure and planning. Currently the pedlet estimates are coming in
within the budgeted amount. Future funds for upkeep and storage will be
needed for continued support of this program, which is the intent.

Pedlet Pilot Program: Downtown Bozeman
Background
The Downtown Urban Renewal District (DURD) developed a "Parklet & Pedlet Program Assessment
Report” in 2021 to explore ways to enhance pedestrian and café experiences in the downtown area.
After extensive research, the "pedlet"
model was selected as the most
suitable option for Bozeman,
particularly for expanding narrow
sidewalk spaces on side streets off
Main Street. Unlike parklets, which
occupy parking spaces and create
additional seating, pedlets serve as a
pedestrian bypass, allowing
restaurants to use the existing
sidewalk space for outdoor seating
while maintaining ADA-compliant
walkways.
Pilot Program Overview
The pilot program will be initiated with Bitterroot Bistro, which has agreed to formalize an
Exclusive Use Permit for a Sidewalk Café through the City of Bozeman. This pilot will serve as a
model for future pedlet implementations in the downtown area.
Goals & Benefits
• Expand outdoor dining opportunities for restaurants with limited sidewalk space.
• Maintain ADA compliance by shifting pedestrian pathways to the pedlet structure.
• Support local businesses by allowing the extension of state liquor licenses into the
designated pedlet area.
• Enhance the vibrancy of downtown Bozeman with attractive, functional outdoor seating.
• Efficiently use existing public spaces while ensuring pedestrian accessibility and safety.
Design & Implementation
The proposed pedlet design is inspired by the Great Falls, MT program, which was adopted in 2019.
The pedlet structure will be sourced from MODstreet, a Colorado-based manufacturer specializing
Figure 1: Great Falls Pedlet Program Graphic
29
in high-quality pedlets. A sample rendering from a current project can be found HERE, illustrating a
pedestrian bypass structure with seating space along the storefront.
The City Transportation Department has been actively involved in planning and ensuring the
feasibility of the project. The DURD will manage the Encroachment Permit for the seasonal leasing
of two parking spaces needed for the pedlet.
Budget & Costs
• Pedlet Infrastructure Cost (MODstreet estimate): ~$25,000 (design phase ongoing)
• Parking Space Lease Cost (5-month seasonal lease-2 spaces, May-Sept): ~$1,200 (based
on current construction walkway fees)
• DURD Budget Allocation (FY25): $30,000 allocated for purchase, with minimal expenses
projected for installation and storage in FY26
Next Steps
1. Formalization of Permits
o Bitterroot Bistro to submit an Exclusive Use Permit for a Sidewalk Café through the
City of Bozeman and submit approved permit to the Montana Department of Revenue
for liquor license extension into café.
o DURD to secure an Encroachment Permit for the pedlet structure and lease the
necessary parking spaces.
2. Final Design and Ordering
o MODstreet to finalize pedlet design and production.
o Coordination with City Transportation and Community Development Departments to
ensure compliance with regulations and accessibility requirements.
3. Installation & Monitoring
o Installation scheduled for May/June 2025.
o Monitoring effectiveness and community reception throughout the summer season.
Conclusion
The Pedlet Pilot Program represents an innovative step toward enhancing downtown Bozeman’s
walkability and outdoor dining culture to our under-represented side street eateries. If successful,
the program may be expanded to additional locations, offering long-term benefits to businesses,
residents, and visitors alike.
