Report compiled on: August 21, 2024 4 Memorandum REPORT TO:City Commission FROM:Danielle Garber, Senior Planner Brian Krueger, Development Review Manager Rebecca Harbage, Deputy Director of Community Development Erin George, Director of Community Development SUBJECT:Authorize the Mayor to Sign a Findings of Fact and Order for the SRX II Subdivision Preliminary Plat, Application 24112 (Quasi-Judicial) MEETING DATE:October 21, 2025 AGENDA ITEM TYPE:Community Development - Quasi-Judicial RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize the Mayor to sign the Findings of Fact and Order for the SRX II Subdivision Preliminary Plat to Subdivide 35.06 acres to create 3 buildable lots, 1 restricted development lot, and associated right of way. STRATEGIC PLAN:4.2 High Quality Urban Approach: Continue to support high-quality planning, ranging from building design to neighborhood layouts, while pursuing urban approaches to issues such as multimodal transportation, infill, density, connected trails and parks, and walkable neighborhoods. BACKGROUND: The Department of Community Development received a Preliminary Plat Application on March 13, 2024 requesting to subdivide 35.06 acres to create 3 buildable lots, 1 restricted development lot, and associated right of way. The subject property is zoned REMU (Residential Emphasis Mixed Use) and B-2M (Community Business District - Mixed). On August 8, 2025 the Development Review Committee (DRC) found the application sufficient for continued review and recommends the conditions and code provisions identified in this report. Please see the Findings of Fact for analysis of the review criteria. On October 6, 2025, the Community Development Board (CDB) acting in it's capacity as the Planning Board voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of this subdivision application. No discussion was provided. A question was asked of staff regarding stormwater design and the temporary 5 stormwater facilities proposed within the restricted lot which staff answered. No public comment was received. A video of the CDB meeting may be viewed on the City’s streaming website. This subdivision meets the criteria for review under 76-3-616 Montana Code Annotated (MCA) - Exemption for Certain Subdivisions. This statute exempts this subdivision from the public hearing requirement. Per BMC 38.240.100 the final decision for this preliminary plat must be made within 60 working days from sufficiency or by November 4, 2025. On October 7, 2025, the City Commission voted unanimously 5-0 to approve consent agenda items H.2 – H.17. This subdivision was approved with that vote as agenda item H.9. No discussion was provided. A video of the City Commission meeting may be viewed on the City’s streaming website. No public comment was received. Before the vote, the City Manager provided a memo from staff updating the City Commission on the proceedings of the October 6, 2025 CDB meeting, and correcting an exhibit error in the staff report. An error on page 7, exhibit 2 – Future Land Use Map showed an outdated map indicating the incorrect future land use map designation for a portion of the subject property. During review of the application the applicant concurrently submitted a Growth Policy Amendment (GPA) and Zone Map Amendment (ZMA). Both applications were approved by the City Commission on August 13, 2024. Resolution 5639 was adopted on September 10, 2024 amending the future land use map to show a designation of Community Commercial Mixed Use in the southwest corner of the subject property. The City Commission was further informed that staff analysis of the adopted growth policy designation, which begins on Page 32 of the staff report, contained findings for the correct designation. The only change that needed to be made to the staff report, was to the map on page 7, exhibit 2. Further information about the GPA and ZMA applications can be found on Page 35 of the attached report. The provided exhibit showed the correct future land use map with a designation of Community Commercial Mixed Use in the southwest corner of the subject property associated with B-2M zoning, and Urban Neighborhood for the rest of the property associated with REMU zoning. This corrected exhibit has been provided as Exhibit 2, on page 7 of the attached report. UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None ALTERNATIVES:As recommended by the City Commission FISCAL EFFECTS:Fiscal impacts are undetermined at this time, but will include increased property tax revenues from new development, along with increased costs to deliver municipal services to the property. Impact fees will be collected at the time of building permit issuance for individual buildings along with City sewer and water connection fees. 6 Attachments: 24112 Findings of Fact.pdf Report compiled on: October 9, 2025 7 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 1 of 39 24112 SRX II Subdivision Preliminary Plat Public Meeting/Hearing Dates: Planning Board meeting was held Monday, October 6, 2025 at 6:00 pm.

The application materials are available in the City’s Laserfiche archive for Application 24112 and may be accessed through the Community Development viewer. Unresolved Issues. There are no unresolved issues with this application. 8 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 2 of 39 Project Summary The Department of Community Development received a Preliminary Plat Application on March 13, 2024 requesting to subdivide 35.06 acres to create 3 buildable lots, 1 restricted development lot, and associated right of way. The subject property is zoned REMU (Residential Emphasis Mixed Use) and B-2M (Community Business District - Mixed). Proposed land uses for the subdivision are primarily commercial, mixed-use, and multi- household residential (multi-family). Exhibit 7 below shows proposed uses over the entire subdivision. Block 1 is intended for mixed use and commercial development and is included in the phase 1 buildable lots south of Staudaher Street. Block 2 is intended for multi-family residential and currently proposed as the Sage Peak and Alder affordable housing project under Site Plan (SP) Application 24122, also called Alder Ridge and Sage Peak in the submittal materials. Future phases in restricted development lots to the north of phase 1 are currently proposed as commercial mixed use, multi-household residential, and open space or parkland. Development of lots within the subdivision will be subject to Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) provisions at the time of development for REMU and B-2M Zoning. No city parks are currently proposed within the proposed subdivision. Future parkland may be dedicated at the northeast corner of the site to facilitate wetlands preservation if proposed at the time of subdivision for the restricted lot and acceptable to the Parks Department. A cash-in-leu of parkland (CILP) request is outlined in the application narrative under Document 001. Directly to the north of the subject property is a dedicated public park called Southwood Park, that was platted as a part of the South University District Phase 3 subdivision. As a part of the CILP request, phase 1 infrastructure improvements include a direct trail connection from the Block 2 residential development (SP 24122) along the future South 15th Avenue dedication to Southwood Park. Three local streets are proposed within phase 1 of the subdivision. Extensions of South 17th Avenue and South 15th Avenue north from Graf Street, and a leg of Staudaher Street connecting South 19th Avenue to South 15th Avenue. Jarrett Subdivision, under Application 23072, is an approved preliminary plat to the east of the subject property. With this approval, Staudaher street is proposed to connect through from South 13th Avenue to South 11th Avenue. A public street and utility easement exists for the leg of Staudaher Street from South 15th Avenue to South 13thAvenue and this street will be constructed with a future phase of the Allison Subdivision. The northwest corner of this subdivision, immediately adjacent to the subject property and Southwood Park is proposed as a public park in future phases. However, it is important to note that this subdivision has not yet received final plat approval, and a different development proposal may eventually be submitted with a different proposed street alignment and park location that will be evaluated at the time of submittal. South 15th and South 17th Avenues are proposed to connect north through the proposed restricted lot to Arnold Street with future phases of this subdivision. 9 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 3 of 39 The applicant has requested concurrent construction. All improvements must be installed prior to the issuance of a building permit for any lot within a subdivision, except when concurrent construction is an identified purpose of the initial project review and approved pursuant to the criteria established in subsection D of BMC 38.270.030. Subsection D allows lots subject to site plan review to commence with vertical construction prior to installation of required infrastructure with concurrent construction approval. A concurrent construction request for construction of infrastructure and vertical construction of Site Plan 24122 is located in the application under Document 013 – Appendix L – Concurrent Construction Letter. This concurrent construction plan has been approved by the Fire Department and found to be sufficient following review from Planning and Engineering staff. Final infrastructure review and approval and code provisions related to concurrent construction of infrastructure are located in Section 4 below. A phasing exhibit under Drawing 004 shows proposed infrastructure and the location of Block 1, Block 2, and Restricted Lot 1. A jurisdictional water course and associated jurisdictional wetland, as determined by the Army Corps of Engineers, are present on the subject property. These are associated with the Middle Creek Ditch containing Mandeville Creek that runs along the west side of the property next to 19th Avenue, and a wetland area in the center of the property identified formally as W-A or Wetland A in the jurisdictional determination contained in Document 047 and Document 047.1. Additional surface water present on the subject property includes an eastern channel of Middle Creek Ditch, located in the South 15th Avenue future right-of-way that was determined to be non-jurisdictional, and an existing stormwater pond just to the north of the existing roundabout on Graf Street for South 15th Avenue. A jurisdiction determination means that a Department of the Army 404 permit and approved mitigation plan for impacted areas of the wetland is required prior to commencement of construction activities. Page 8 of Document 044.01 contains an exhibit and calculation of impacted watercourse and wetland areas. To facilitate construction of infrastructure required to serve the subdivision 0.48 acres or 21,122 square feet of wetland area and 0.01 acres or 374 square feet of waterway are proposed to be impacted by the proposed subdivision. All impacts are proposed to allow construction of Staudaher Street and South 17th Avenue and a portion are located on the future developable Lot 2, Block 2. A majority of Wetland A is located in Restricted Lot 1 and subject to further subdivision review prior to development. Proposed impacts including the northern extension of South 17th Avenue to Arnold Street will be evaluated at the time of application. The eastern channel of Middle Creek Ditch, also referred to as the “Drain Ditch” has been abandoned by the Middle Creek Ditch Company (MCDC). A letter from the president of MCDC was provided under Document 046.1, and a recorded extinguishment of the ditch easement was provided under Document 046. Agricultural water users and rights remain for Mandeville Creek along the west side of the property along South 19th Avenue. Pursuant to Sec. 38.410.060.D BMC, written approval must be obtained from the Middle Creek Ditch Company to pipe the existing ditch within the right of way at the intersection of Staudaher Street and South 19th Avenue prior to infrastructure approval. Further analysis of the is located below in the staff analysis section for Surface Water. 10 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 4 of 39 On August 8, 2025 the Development Review Committee (DRC) found the application sufficient for continued review and recommends the conditions and code provisions identified in this report. The subdivider did not request any variances with this application. Two waivers were granted during pre-application review for BMC 38.220.060.A.7 for review of Agriculture, and BMC 38.220.060.A.17 for review of Miscellaneous standards. The City did not receive any written public comment on the application as of the writing of this report. The final decision for this preliminary plat must be made by November 4, 2025 or 60 working days from the sufficiency date per BMC 38.240.100 and MCA 76-3-616 for exempt subdivisions. On October 6, 2025, the Community Development Board (CDB) acting in their capacity as the Planning Board voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of this subdivision application.

Collectively this information is the record of the review. The analysis in this report is a summary of the completed review. Applicable Subdivision Review Criteria, Section 38.240.150.B, BMC. In considering applications for subdivision approval under this title, the advisory boards and City Commission shall consider the following: 1) Compliance with the survey requirements of Part 4 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The preliminary plat was prepared in accordance with the surveying and monumentation requirements of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Montana. As noted in the code requirements, the final plat must comply with State statute, Administrative Rules of Montana, and the Bozeman Municipal Code. 2) Compliance with the local subdivision regulations provided for in Part 5 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The final plat must comply with the standards identified and referenced in the Bozeman Municipal Code. The subdivider is advised that unmet code provisions, or code provisions not specifically listed as a condition of approval, do not, in any way, create a waiver or other relaxation of the lawful requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code or State law. Sections 3 and 4 of this report identify conditions and code provisions necessary to meet all municipal standards. The listed code requirements address necessary documentation and compliance with standards. Therefore, upon satisfaction of all conditions and code corrections the subdivision will comply with the subdivision regulations. 3) Compliance with the local subdivision review procedures provided for in Part 6 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The Bozeman Planning Board public meeting and City Commission public hearings were properly noticed in accordance with the Bozeman Municipal Code. Based on the recommendation of the Development Review Committee (DRC) and other applicable review agencies, as well as any public testimony received on the matter, the City Commission will make the final decision on the subdivider’s request. Review of this subdivision was conducted under the terms of 76-3-616 MCA as authorized in 38.240.100. The Department of Community Development received a preliminary plat application on March 13, 2024. The DRC reviewed the preliminary plat application and determined the submittal did not contain detailed, supporting information that was sufficient to allow for the continued review of the proposed subdivision. 28 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 22 of 39 A revised application was received on April 8, 2024, August 16, 2024, November 6, 2024, April 23, 2025, and June 20, 2025. With each submittal, the DRC determined the application was still not sufficient for continued review. A revised application was received on July 18, 2025. The DRC determined the application was adequate for continued review August 8, 2025 and recommended conditions of approval and the code corrections for the staff report. The applicant posted public notice on the subject property on August 22, 2025. The applicant sent public notice to all landowners of record within 200-feet of the subject property via first class mail, on August 21, 2025. No public comment had been received on this application as of the writing of this report. September 29, 2025 a major subdivision staff report for a subsequent minor subdivision was completed and forwarded with a recommendation of conditional approval for consideration to the Planning Board and City Commission. On October 6, 2025, the Community Development Board (CDB) voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of this subdivision application. No discussion was provided. A question was asked of staff regarding stormwater design and the temporary stormwater facilities proposed within the restricted lot which staff answered. No public comment was received. A video of the CDB meeting may be viewed on the City’s streaming website. On October 7, 2025, the City Commission voted unanimously 5-0 to approve consent agenda items H.2 – H.17. This subdivision was approved with that vote as agenda item H.9. No discussion was provided. A video of the City Commission meeting may be viewed on the City’s streaming website. No public comment was received. Before the vote, the City Manager provided a memo from staff updating the City Commission on the proceedings of the October 6, 2025 CDB meeting, and correcting an exhibit error in the staff report. 4) Compliance with Chapter 38, BMC and other relevant regulations Community Development staff and the DRC reviewed the preliminary plat against all applicable regulations and the application complies with the BMC and all other relevant regulations with conditions and code corrections. This report includes Conditions of Approval and required code provisions as recommended by the DRC for consideration by the City Commission to complete the application processing for final plat approval. All municipal water and sewer facilities will conform to the regulations outlined by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and the requirements of the Design Standards and Specifications Policy (DSSP) and the City of Bozeman Modifications to Montana Public Works Standard Specifications. Water/sewer – Document 019 contains the preliminary design report for water systems improvements in the proposed subdivision, stamped by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Montana. This report was reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with state and local Public Works Standard Specifications, the City’s design standards, the City of 29 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 23 of 39 Bozeman Water Facility Plan, and the City of Bozeman Fire Service Line Standard and found to meet with code provisions the City’s review requirements. The proposed design will tie into a single existing water main in South 19th Avenue and Graf Street, to create a looped distribution system within the development. With future phases a main planned for West Arnold Street will be stubbed into the development, and proposed mains at the intersections of South 15th Avenue and Staudaher Street and South 17th Avenue and Staudaher Street will be stubbed for a connection to the north. The water design report contains an analysis for expected water demand for these water main extensions. Per the design report, “there is adequate volume and pressure to supply domestic and fire service for all buildings in the proposed development.” Final plans and specifications will be prepared and reviewed after action on the preliminary plat. Document 018 contains the preliminary design report for wastewater systems in the proposed subdivision and is stamped by a professional engineer licensed in the state of Montana. This report was reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with state and local Public Works Standard Specifications, the City’s design standards, and the City of Bozeman Wastewater Facility Plan. Per the report “The flows from SRX-II Phase 1 will generally flow to the north to a 10-inch main along Staudaher and convey west to S 19th Avenue connecting to an 18-inch main.” With future development of the restricted lot an 8-inch sewer main is proposed to connect to a sewer main within Arnold Street. The wastewater design report contains an analysis for expected average daily demand created by future development on the subject property based on zoning density. Per the report “The property is within the wastewater planning boundary for the City of Bozeman as described in the 2015 City of Bozeman Wastewater Collection System Facilities Plan.” The existing downstream sewer infrastructure in South 19th Avenue “can handle the increase in flows based on information in the 2015 City of Bozeman Wastewater Collection Facilities Plan Update.” A distribution map and analysis of future downstream pipe upgrades in the long term was provided and it was determined that “All the pipes that require long term upgrades have adequate capacity for this development.” Code provision 19 requires the applicant offset estimated water demand prior to final plat approval per subsection D of BMC 38.410.130. Per this section, the application may either transfer water rights into city ownership that are appurtenant to the land being developed or as acceptable to the city, provide payment of cash-in-lieu of water rights at a rate established by the most recent City Commission resolution, or a combination of both. If insufficient water rights exist, the Landowner must pay cash in lieu of water rights, in any amount determined by the Director of Utilities, prior to development. Easements - The final plat must provide and depict all necessary utilities and required utility easements. Code provisions 17 and 18 require that all easements, existing and proposed, must be accurately depicted and addressed on the final plat and in the final plat application. Public utilities will be located within dedicated street right of ways. The applicant must submit for review and approval all easements, which designate space for public or private utilities that are not in the 30 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 24 of 39 designated public right of way. Additional required easements include public drainage easements for all stormwater facilities located on private property, and an agricultural water user’s easement to ensure maintenance access for all downstream agricultural water users. All easements must be provided using the City’s standard language. Ten-foot front yard utility easements are depicted on the preliminary plat and are proposed to be granted with the final plat in accordance with standards. An existing 10-foot public sidewalk easement provides the necessary right-of-way for the public to utilize the proposed shared use path along 19th Avenue. Copies of additional existing easements are required to be provided with the final plat application. Parks – The applicant proposes to meet Park and Recreation requirements through a cash-in-lieu of parkland (CILP) payment to the city. No parkland dedication is proposed with this subsequent minor subdivision. The parkland requirements will only apply to Phase 1 Block 2 zoned REMU and proposed for residential development. Phase 1 Block 1 is zoned B-2M and allows a mixture and variety of residential and commercial uses but is not required to develop with residential uses. If residential uses are proposed within Phase 1 Block 1, park and recreation requirements will be evaluated at the time of application for site development. Commission Resolution No. 4784 provides criteria for evaluation of CILP proposals. Those are the travel distance to an existing park being within 0.50 miles, the acceptance of CIL enables accomplishment of other city priorities, and it is the expressed preference of the developer. The applicant has provided a schematic drawing under Document 042 showing the location of all nearby parkland and travel paths. Southwood Park is directly to the North and the most readily accessible from the Block 2 development. In lieu of a sidewalk or street connection, since N. 15th Avenue and Arnold Street are not yet developed, phase 1 infrastructure improvements include a direct trail connection from the Block 2 residential development (SP 24122) along the future South 15th Avenue dedication to Southwood Park. Depending on seasonality, this improvement may be financially guaranteed with the final plat application. The applicant proposes to meet Park and Recreation requirements through a cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication payment. Park and Recreation requirements using a net residential land area of 7.11 acres and maximum dedication of 12 dwelling units per acre (8 du as land dedication and 4 du as CILP) result in an initial requirement of 1.71 acres of land dedication with an additional 0.85 acres of land equivalent as cash-in-lieu. The applicant proposes 1.71 acres of adjusted land dedication equivalent as cash-in-lieu for a total of 2.56 acres of cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication. There are code provisions related to parkland, listed as code provisions 20 and 21. Code provision 20 requires the applicant to update the cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication (CILP) value accordingly at final plat application. This provision ensures the CILP value is based on the most recent up to date evaluation. Code provision 21 requires the applicant to construct the direct trail connection from the Block 2 residential development (SP 24122) along the future South 15th Avenue street dedication to Southwood Park prior to final plat approval. This 31 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 25 of 39 provision ensures that future residents will have sufficient pedestrian access to nearby park and recreation facilities until full buildout of subdivision infrastructure with phase 2 is completed. Stormwater – A preliminary stormwater design report was prepared by a professional engineer with Morrison Maierle and is located under application Document 017. This report was reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with state and local Public Works Standards and Specifications, the City’s design standards, and the Bozeman Municipal Code. The subdivision will construct stormwater control facilities to conform to municipal code and design standards. Per the report “Stormwater will generally be conveyed using storm drain mains to ponds …” Changes to existing drainage conditions are proposed including relocating a remnant ditch adjacent to South 15th Avenue in to the “24” storm conveyance within the 15th Street ROW.” The existing temporary drainage pond located north of the roundabout on W Graf Street receives runoff from Graf Street and the subdivision to the south. “This pond will be filled in and the volume will be relocated to a temporary retention pond created northwest of the intersection of South 17th Avenue and Staudaher Street, eventually conveyed to a permanent basin along the northern boundary of the property.” Another temporary retention pond is proposed northwest of the intersection of Staudaher Street and South 15th Avenue. Code provision 10 details required development or maintenance of common areas and facilities to be maintained by the property owners’ association. 10a requires the property owners’ association to maintain all stormwater facilities outside of the public right-of-way and incorporate a maintenance plan into the association documents prior to final plat approval. This will ensure the proper maintenance of necessary stormwater infrastructure as the subdivision is developed and occupied. Agricultural water user facility – The applicant provided documentation of downstream agricultural water users and notification, in accordance with BMC 38.360.280, was provided to those users with this preliminary plat application. There is one surface water facility, which is classified as both a natural stream and a ditch used to convey water for agricultural uses, or a “stream-ditch,” that cross the subject property. The Mandeville Creek/Ditch is an irrigation ditch along the western side off the proposed subdivision and is the primary facility to be impacted with this application that is linked to agricultural water use, due to the development of Phase 1 and the required connection of Staudaher Street to South 19th Avenue. The facility along the eastern edge of the development, known as eastern channel of Middle Creek Ditch, also referred to as the “Drain Ditch” has been abandoned by the Middle Creek Ditch Company (MCDC). A letter from the president of MCDC was provided under Document 046.1, and a recorded extinguishment of the ditch easement was provided under Document 046. Agricultural water users and rights remain for Mandeville Creek along the west side of the property along South 19th Avenue. Pursuant to Sec. 38.410.060.D BMC, written approval must be obtained from the Middle Creek Ditch Company to pipe the existing ditch within the right of way at the intersection of Staudaher Street and South 19th Avenue prior to infrastructure approval. This requirement is outlined under code provision 11. 32 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 26 of 39 An agricultural water user’s easement must be provided per code provision 18. The easements must be prepared as documents separate from the final plat but may be referenced on the final plat. Per code provision 18a and 18b, Alterations to agricultural water user facilities must be approved by all owners of the facility as required under MCA 70-17-112. Documentation of the approval must be provided for the alterations of the agricultural water user facilities prior to City infrastructure approval. Additionally, with the infrastructure submittal the applicant must identify the party responsible for the maintenance of the culvert and provide a maintenance plan for the pipe. If an entity other than the Owner/POA will be responsible, written approval for the design and maintenance plan must be provided prior to scheduling of the pre-construction conference for infrastructure improvements. These code provisions are required to ensure that downstream agricultural water users are not impacted, and appropriate access for maintenance is provided per state law. Police/Fire – The City of Bozeman’s Police and Fire emergency response area includes this subject property. The subdivision does not impact the City’s ability to provide emergency services to the subject property. The necessary addresses will be provided to enable 911 response to individual parcels prior to recording of the final plat. For lots subject to site plan review, addressing will be provided following the plan review process, and are dependent on the design and arrangement of buildings. Fire protection standards require installation of fire hydrants at designated spacing to ensure adequate protection. 5) The provision of easements to and within the subdivision for the location and installation of any necessary utilities The final plat will provide and depict all necessary utilities and required utility easements. Code requirement 17 requires that all easements, existing and proposed, must be accurately depicted and addressed on the final plat and in the final plat application. Public utilities are generally located within dedicated street and alley right of ways. Easements for future roadways within restricted lot areas are required prior to final plat approval. 6) The provision of legal and physical access to each parcel within the subdivision and the notation of that access on the applicable plat and any instrument transferring the parcel The final plat will provide legal and physical access to each parcel within the subdivision. All the proposed lots in phase 1 will have frontage on public streets. Code provision 14 requires a 1’ no access strip along South 19th Avenue and West Graf Street except where road intersections are proposed. Access to Block 1 and Block 2 will be achieved from South 15th Avenue, South 17th Avenue, and Staudaher Street once constructed. Documentation of compliance with adopted standards 38.220.060 The Development Review Committee (DRC) completed a subdivision pre-application plan review on March 8, 2024 and no variances were requested. Two waivers were granted during pre-application review for BMC 38.220.060.A.7 for review of Agriculture, and BMC 38.220.060.A.17 for review of Miscellaneous standards. 33 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 27 of 39 Staff offers the following summary comments on the documents required with Article 38.220.060, BMC. 38.220.060.A.1 – Surface water A jurisdictional water course and associated jurisdictional wetland, as determined by the Army Corps of Engineers, are present on the subject property. These are associated with the Middle Creek Ditch containing Mandeville Creek that runs along the west side of the property next to South 19th Avenue, and a wetland area in the center of the property identified formally as W-A or Wetland A in the jurisdictional determination contained in Document 047 and Document 047.1. Additional surface water present on the subject property includes an eastern channel of Middle Creek Ditch, located in the South 15th Avenue future right-of-way that was determined to be non-jurisdictional, and an existing stormwater pond just to the north of the existing roundabout on Graf Street. Additional analysis of the agricultural water user facilities and stormwater systems is located in subsection 4 above. A jurisdiction determination means that a Department of the Army 404 permit and approved mitigation plan for impacted areas of the wetland is required prior to commencement of construction activities. Page 8 of Document 044.01 contains an exhibit and calculation of impacted watercourse and wetland areas. To facilitate construction of infrastructure required to serve the subdivision 0.48 acres or 21,122 square feet of wetland area and 0.01 acres or 374 square feet of waterway are proposed to be impacted by the proposed subdivision. All impacts are proposed to allow construction of Staudaher Street and South 17th Avenue, and a portion are located on the future developable Lot 2, Block 2. A majority of Wetland A is located in Restricted Lot 1 and subject to further subdivision review prior to development. Proposed impacts, including the northern extension of South 17th Avenue to Arnold Street through the restricted lot with Phase 2, will be evaluated at the time of subdivision application for phase 2. Per Document 044.01 “The proposed fill of 0.49 acres within the 4.94-acre PEM wetland will result in a measurable loss of wetland area and function. To offset this loss, the USACE determined that 0.23 functional wetland credits must be purchased.” The City’s wetland consultant, Naiad Aquatic Consultants, LLC, provided scientific review of the applicant’s wetland delineation (Document 045) and associated response letters. Overall Naiad provided review of the initial wetland delineation and provided corrections on April 28, 2024. Three subsequent submittals were provided by the applicant and reviewed by Naiad. A final letter from Naiad was provided to the city and the applicants on July 18, 2025. This letter identifies ongoing protection measures to reduce impacts to the wetland hydroperiod, manage construction, and remove existing soil stockpiles from within the wetland area. These requirements are outlined in code provision 4 under Surface Water and required with the infrastructure plan set. Code provision 3 requires the applicant to contact the Gallatin County Conservation District, Montana Department of Environmental Quality, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding the proposed project and any required permits (i.e., 310, 404, Turbidity exemption, etc.). Any required permits must be obtained by the applicant and provided to the 34 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 28 of 39 Community Development Department prior to construction and/or final plat approval whichever is sooner. As outlined in the Ag. Water findings above written approval must be obtained from the Middle Creek Ditch Company to pipe the existing ditch within the right of way at the intersection of Staudaher Street and South 19th Avenue prior to infrastructure approval. 38.220.060.A.2 - Floodplains No floodplains are located on the subject property and no flood hazard evaluation was required by reviewing staff. 38.220.060.A.3 - Groundwater A groundwater investigation was completed May 2023 to September 2023 by Morrison Maierle and provided in the application documents under Document 016. 13 groundwater monitoring wells were recorded on the dates indicated in the report This report was evaluated by the Engineering Division against code requirements in Chapter 38 and engineering design manuals and was found to meet standards. Groundwater levels beneath the proposed subdivision experience seasonal variations but are generally relatively high. The groundwater levels onsite range between approximately 1 and 5 feet below existing grade based on well monitoring performed from May 2023 to September of 2023 and was highest during the spring runoff season. Storm treatment structures for the subdivision were designed with bottom elevations above the seasonal high ground water level to ensure they will drain as required. Code provision 6 describes the restrictions on crawl spaces, basements and sump pumps. These restrictions are required to be provided on the conditions of approval sheet on the plat as a requirement for all current and future lot owners. 38.220.060.A.4 - Geology, Soils and Slopes This subdivision will not significantly impact the geology, soils or slopes. No significant geological features or slopes exist on the site. A geotechnical investigation report was provided by Rawhide Engineering Inc. and has been stamped and signed by a professional engineer registered in the State of Montana and reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with City standards. This is located in application Document 015. 38.220.060.A.5 - Vegetation This subdivision will not significantly impact vegetation. No critical plant communities were identified on site. A vegetation map is located in application Document 038. A summary of wetland and riparian plants on site was provided in Document 044. 38.220.060.A.6 - Wildlife This subdivision will not significantly impact wildlife. There are no known critical habitats on the property or observed or mapped threatened or endangered species. The aquatic resources on the property have been impacted by agricultural crop production and are used for irrigation water supply. The applicant provided a technical memo from Morrison Maierle, prepared environmental by scientists originally dated January 8, 2024. A letter from Montana Fish, 35 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 29 of 39 Wildlife, and Parks (MT FWP) was provided and is dated November 22, 2023. MT FWP did not “have any fish and wildlife comments to provide at this time.” 38.220.060.A.7 - Agriculture This subdivision will not impact agriculture. The site is historically used for irrigated crops and no continuance of agricultural activities is proposed as the subdivision is developed through current and future phasing. The area is zoned for residential, commercial, and mixed uses under the REMU and B-2M zoning. Supplemental documentation of compliance with adopted standards per this section was waived with the pre-application review. No adjacent agricultural uses are present. 38.220.060.A.8 - Agricultural Water User Facilities See discussion above under primary review criteria. 38.220.060.A.9 - Water and Sewer Water and sewer improvements will be designed to meet City of Bozeman Standards and State Department of Environmental Quality Standards and Regulations. Also see discussion above under primary review criteria. 38.220.060.A.10 - Stormwater Management The stormwater infrastructure will be designed to meet City of Bozeman Standards. See discussion above under primary review criteria. 38.220.060.A.11 - Streets, Roads and Alleys The subdivision will provide adequate improvements to support the proposed development and nearby areas by enhancing multi-modal transportation and providing local street access to proposed developable lots. Three local street are proposed within phase 1 of the subdivision. South 17th Avenue and South 15th Avenue are two north-south running local streets proposed within the subdivision. Staudaher Street is the east-west running local street. South 17th Avenue will continue the previously approved street section from the South University Phase 3 Subdivision to the north and will include 70 feet of right-of-way with on-street bike lanes and on-street parking. The abandoned ditch located within the South 15th Avenue right-of-way will be piped within the South 15th Avenue right-of-way to continue the historical stormwater flow path from subdivisions to the south. All infrastructure will be constructed in one phase. The applicant has requested concurrent construction for the 3 developable lots. The restricted lot will require further subdivision review. The concurrent construction letter lists required infrastructure improvements for concurrent construction and required improvements prior to final plat approval that may be financially guaranteed. A Traffic Impact Study (TIS) dated March 2024, stamped and signed by a professional engineer, was provided and evaluated by the reviewing engineer for compliance with adopted design standards and code requirements. This report includes an analysis of 36 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 30 of 39 existing conditions for streets, intersections, bike and pedestrian facilities, intersection capacity, and crash history. This report also analyzes trip generation, trip distribution, and traffic impacts from the proposed subdivision and subsequent development including mitigation recommendations. This report found that “any network and bicycle/pedestrian improvements adjacent to the site should be constructed as consistent with recommendations in the Bozeman Transportation Master Plan (2017) and aligned with the design of adjacent facilities and developments.” Code provision 13 is related to traffic impacts and states that the proposed project is located within one-half mile of the intersection of South 19th Avenue and Stucky Road. The SRX II Subdivision Traffic Impact Study indicates the subject intersection will not meet the City's level of service standard at full buildout in the design year required per BMC 38.400.060.B.4. The intersection of South 19th Avenue and Stucky Road is scheduled for improvement in the City's Capital Improvement Plan within the next three years. Per BMC 38.270.070.C, the applicant must pay cash-in-lieu for the SRX II proportional share of the capital facility prior to Final Plat approval. Phase 2, or other adjacent development will be required to construct Arnold Street along the northern property boundary of the subject property. Other proposed mitigation requirements will be evaluated with subdivision review for the phase 2 restricted lot based on adopted standards at the time of application. Code provision 15 is related to bicycle and pedestrian movement and requires the applicant to widen the existing sidewalk to a 10-foot shared use path along West Graf Street adjacent to the development with the initial phase. The applicant must widen the existing sidewalk to a 10-foot shared use path along S 19th from West Graf Street to Staudaher Street with the initial phase. Development of the restricted lot will require additional expansion of the shared use path moving north. 38.220.060.A.12 – Non-Municipal Utilities The applicant has received confirmation of future service connections from Northwestern Energy, Charter, and Yellowstone Fiber for the proposed subdivision. These responses are provided under application documents 39-41. 38.220.060.A.13 - Land Use The application has provided future land use data consistent with the REMU and B-2M zoning districts. Proposed land uses for the subdivision are primarily commercial mixed use and multi- household (multi-family). Exhibit 7 shows proposed uses over the entire subdivision. Block 1 is intended for mixed use and commercial development and is included in phase 1. Block 2 is intended for multi-household residential apartments and associated site improvements. Development of lots within the subdivision will be subject to Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) provisions at the time of development for REMU and B-2M Zoning. 38.220.060.A.14 - Parks and Recreation Facilities The proposed subdivision will provide cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication. The proposal meets the criteria of Commission Resolution 4784. The Parks Department reviewed the parkland proposal, also see the discussion above under the primary review criteria. 37 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 31 of 39 38.220.060.A.15 - Neighborhood Center Plan To provide a neighborhood focal point, all residential subdivisions that are ten net acres in size or greater, must have a neighborhood center. Developments may be exempted from this requirement if every lot within the development is within one-half mile of an existing neighborhood center. The proposed subdivision is within a half mile of Southwood Park with a required recreational trail connecting the subdivision to the park via the South 15th Avenue ROW with Phase 1. Additionally, Phase 1 Block 1 is zoned B-2M with future commercial and mixed- use development planned that will serve as a commercial center for the subdivision. Direct pedestrian access to the park will be available via the street and sidewalk network proposed with the subdivision layout with Phase 2 development through the restricted lot. 38.220.060.A.16 - Lighting Plan Subdivision or street lighting is required pursuant to BMC 38.570.030. All street lights installed must use LED light heads and must conform to the City’s requirement for cut-off shields as required by the City’s specifications. A Special Improvement Lighting District (SILD) must be created prior to final plat application. Code provision 16 is related to this requirement. 38.220.060.A.17 - Miscellaneous The proposed subdivision is not located within 200 feet of any public land access or within a delineated Wildland Urban Interface area. No health or safety hazards on-site or off-site will be created with this development. Supplemental documentation of compliance with this adopted standard was waived during the pre-application review. 38.220.060.A.19 - Affordable Housing This application does not rely on incentives authorized in 38.380. Therefore, no analysis is required. Proposed future site development will be evaluated with the subsequent site plan application. SECTION 7 - FINDINGS OF FACT, ORDER AND APPEAL PROVISIONS A. PURSUANT to Chapter 38, Article 2, BMC, and other applicable sections of Chapter 38, BMC, public notice was given, opportunity to submit comment was provided to affected parties, and a review of the preliminary plat described in these findings of fact was conducted. B. The purposes of the preliminary plat review were to consider all relevant evidence relating to public health, safety, welfare, and the other purposes of Chapter 38, BMC; to evaluate the proposal against the criteria and standards of Chapter 38 BMC; and to determine whether the plat should be approved, conditionally approved, or denied. C. The matter of the preliminary plat application was considered by the City Commission at a public meeting on October 7, 2025 at which time the Department of Community Development Staff reviewed the project, submitted and summarized the conditions of 38 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 32 of 39 approval, and summarized the public comment submitted to the City prior to the public meeting in the provided staff report. D. The City Commission requested public comment at the public meeting on October 7, 2025 and no public comment was received. E. It appeared to the City Commission that all parties and the public wishing to examine the proposed preliminary plat and offer comment were given the opportunity to do so. After receiving the recommendation of the relevant advisory bodies established by Section Chapter 38, BMC, and considering all matters of record presented with the application and during the public comment period defined by Chapter 38, BMC, the City Commission has found that the proposed preliminary plat would comply with the requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code if certain conditions were imposed. Therefore, being fully advised of all matters having come before her regarding this application, the City Commission makes the following decision. F. The preliminary plat has been found to meet the criteria of Chapter 38, BMC, and is therefore approved, subject to the conditions listed in Section 3 of this report and the correction of any elements not in conformance with the standards of the Chapter including those identified in Section 4 of this report. The evidence contained in the submittal materials, advisory body review, public testimony, and this report, justify the conditions imposed on this development to ensure that the final site plan and subsequent construction complies with all applicable regulations, and all applicable criteria of Chapter 38, BMC. G. This City Commission order may be appealed by bringing an action in the Eighteenth District Court of Gallatin County, within 30 days after the adoption of this document by the City Commission, by following the procedures of Section 76-3-616, MCA. The preliminary approval of this minor subdivision shall be effective for one (1) year from the date of the signed Findings of Fact and Order approval.

DATED this ________ day of _____________________, 2025 BOZEMAN CITY COMMISSION _________________________________ TERENCE CUNNINGHAM 39 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 33 of 39 Mayor ATTEST: _______________________________ MIKE MAAS City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: _________________________________ GREG SULLIVAN City Attorney APPENDIX A – PROJECT SITE ZONING AND GROWTH POLICY Zoning Designation and Land Uses: The subject property is zoned REMU, Residential Emphasis Mixed Use. The intent of the REMU district is to establish areas within Bozeman that are mixed-use in character and to provide options for a variety of housing, employment, retail and neighborhood service opportunities within a new or existing neighborhood. These purposes are accomplished by: 1. Emphasizing residential as the primary use, including single household dwellings, two to four household dwellings, townhouses, and apartments. 2. Providing for a diverse array of neighborhood-scaled commercial and civic uses supporting residential. 3. Emphasizing a vertical and horizontal mix of uses in a compact and walkable neighborhood setting. 4. Promoting neighborhoods that: a. Create self-sustaining neighborhoods that will lay the foundation for healthy lifestyles; b. Support compact, walkable developments that promote balanced transportation options; 40 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 34 of 39 c. Have residential as the majority use with a range of densities; d. Provide for a diverse array of commercial and civic uses supporting residential; e. Have residential and commercial uses mixed vertically and/or horizontally; f. Locate commercial uses within walking distance; g. Incorporate a wider range of housing types; and h. Encourage developments that exhibit the physical design characteristics of vibrant, urban, and pedestrian-oriented complete streets. 5. Providing standards and guidelines that emphasize a sense of place: a. Support or add to an existing neighborhood context; b. Enhance an existing neighborhood's sense of place and strive to make it more self-sustainable; c. Encourage a new neighborhood commercial center(s) with a unique identity and strong sense of place; d. Develop commercial and mixed-use areas that are safe, comfortable, and attractive to pedestrians; and e. Reinforce the principle of streets as public places that encourage pedestrian and bicycle travel, transit, on-street parking and physical elements of complete streets. 6. Providing standards and guidelines that emphasize natural amenities: a. Preserve and integrate the natural amenities into the development; and b. Appropriately balance a hierarchy of both parks and public spaces that are within the neighborhood. 7. Providing standards and guidelines that emphasize the development of centers: a. Group uses of property to create vibrant centers; b. Where appropriate create a center within an existing neighborhood; c. Facilitate proven, market driven projects to ensure both long and short-term financial viability; d. Allow an appropriate blend of complementary mixed land uses including, but not limited to, retail, offices, commercial services, restaurants, bars, hotels, recreation and civic uses, and housing, to create economic and social vitality; e. Foster the master plan development into a mix of feasible, market driven uses; f. Emphasize the need to serve the adjacent, local neighborhood and as well as the greater Bozeman area; and g. Maximize land use efficiency by encouraging shared use parking. 8. Promoting the integration of action: a. Support existing infrastructure that is within and adjacent to REMU zones; b. Encourage thoughtfully developed master planned communities; c. Provide flexibility in the placement and design of new developments and redevelopment to anticipate changes in the marketplace; d. Provide flexibility in phasing to help ensure both long and short term financial viability for the project as a whole; 41 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 35 of 39 9. Providing standards and guidelines that promote sustainable design Use of this zone is appropriate for sites at least five acres in size and areas located adjacent to an existing or planned residential area to help sustain commercial uses within walking distance and a wider range of housing types. The proposed subdivision is appropriate for this zone because of the proposed residential development and the adjacent B-2M zoned commercial node that will create a walkable, mixed-use area. The proposed developable REMU zoned lots are subject to site plan review to achieve the purpose and intent of this zoning district. Per BMC 38.310.060.B a master site plan is required for REMU zoned properties greater than or equal to five acres in size prior to development. The purpose of the master site plan is to evaluate development against the REMU supplemental use provisions in BMC 38.310.060, and the REMU district special standards in BMC 38.330.020. The REMU district special standards provide minimum standards for development review intended to create urban public spaces and a vibrant public realm. The applicant provided a request to the Director of Community Development to waive this requirement as each lot will be developed independently with no shared common areas or design. This request was supported by the Director and by staff. The proposed developable REMU zoned lots in Block 2 will be subject to site plan review under a single developer and will not be associated with the development of the B-2M zoned lot. Restricted Lot 1 to the north is subject to further subdivision review. At the time of further development of that lot, the applicant may be required to submit a master site plan review in accordance with this code requirement. The subject property is also zoned B-2M, Community Business District – Mixed. The intent of the B-2M community business district-mixed is to function as a vibrant mixed-use district that accommodates substantial growth and enhances the character of the city. This district provides for a range of commercial uses that serve both the immediate area and the broader trade area and encourages the integration of multi-household residential as a secondary use. Design standards emphasizing pedestrian-oriented design are important elements of this district. Use of this zone is appropriate for arterial corridors, commercial nodes and/or areas served by transit. The proposed subdivision is appropriate for this zone because it places a commercial node along a major arterial that can serve both the immediate neighborhood and the larger area south of the University. While development details for the B-2M zoned Phase 1 Block 1 lot are unknown at this time, B-2M allows a variety of commercial uses including restaurants, retail, offices, and services and encourages primary and secondary residential uses. Adopted Growth Policy Designation: Table 4 of the Bozeman Community Plan 2020 shows the correlation between future land use map designations and implementing zoning districts. (See below for the Table) 42 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 36 of 39 The subject property is designated as Urban Neighborhood for Restricted Lot 1 and Block 2. This category primarily includes urban density homes in a variety of types, shapes, sizes, and intensities. Large areas of any single type of housing are discouraged. In limited instances, an area may develop at a lower gross density due to site constraints and/or natural features such as floodplains or steep slopes. Complementary uses such as parks, home-based occupations, fire stations, churches, schools, and some neighborhood-serving commerce provide activity centers for community gathering and services. The Urban Neighborhood designation indicates that development is expected to occur within municipal boundaries. This may require annexation prior to development. Applying a zoning district to specific parcels sets the required and allowed density. Higher density residential areas are encouraged to be, but are not required or restricted to, proximity to commercial mixed-use areas to facilitate the provision of services and employment opportunities without requiring the use of a car. This proposed subdivision is well suited to implement the Urban Neighborhood designation by providing opportunities for residential develop along a busy arterial corridor and collector street adjacent to a B-2M commercial node. The proposed subdivision is also planning pedestrian and vehicular connections to nearby neighborhoods for a more complete transportation grid for all 43 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 37 of 39 modes of travel. Density and individual uses will be evaluated at the time of development against the REMU zoning requirements. Block 1 of the subject property is designated as Community Commercial Mixed Use. The Community Commercial Mixed Use category promotes commercial areas necessary for economic health and vibrancy. This includes professional and personal services, retail, education, health services, offices, public administration, and tourism establishments. Density is expected to be higher than it is currently in most commercial areas in Bozeman and should include multi-story buildings. Residences on upper floors, in appropriate circumstances, are encouraged. The urban character expected in this designation includes urban streetscapes, plazas, outdoor seating, public art, and hardscaped open space and park amenities. High density residential areas are expected in close proximity. Developments in this land use area should be located on one or two quadrants of intersections of the arterial and/or collector streets and integrated with transit and non-automotive routes. Due to past development patterns, there are also areas along major streets where this category is organized as a corridor rather than a center. Although a broad range of uses may be appropriate in both types of locations, the size and scale is to be smaller within the local service areas. Building and site designs made to support easy reuse of the building and site over time is important. Mixed use areas should be developed in an integrated, pedestrian friendly manner and should not be overly dominated by any single use. Higher intensity uses are encouraged in the core of the area or adjacent to significant streets and intersections. Building height or other methods of transition may be required for compatibility with adjacent development. Smaller neighborhood scale areas are intended to provide local service to an area of approximately one half mile to one mile radius as well as passersby. These smaller centers support and help give identity to neighborhoods by providing a visible and distinct focal point as well as employment and services. Densities of nearby homes needed to support this scale are an average of 14 to 22 dwellings per net acre. The proposed subdivision is well suited to implement the Community Commercial Mixed Use land use category by providing a developable lot for neighborhood commercial uses at the intersection of a busy arterial and collector street. This lot is subject to subsequent site plan review against the B-2M zoning district. Allowable uses in the associated B-2M district mean that the lot may develop with neighborhood commercial uses, mixed uses, high density residential uses, or a combination. Exhibit 7 contains the proposed land use plan. The proposed subdivision meets the following Bozeman Community Plan 2020 goals: N-1 Support well-planned, walkable neighborhoods. N-1.5 Encourage neighborhood focal point development with functions, activities, and facilities that can be sustained over time. Maintain standards for placement of community focal points and services with new development. N-1.9 Ensure multimodal connections between adjacent developments. 44 24112 Findings of Fact and Order for SRX II Subdivision Page 38 of 39 N-1.10 Increase connectivity between parks and neighborhoods through continued trail and sidewalk development. Prioritize closing gaps within the network. N-3.9 Ensure an adequate supply of appropriately designated land to accommodate Low Income Housing Tax Credit development in qualifying census tracts. DCD-1.9 Promote mixed-use developments with access to parks, open space, and transit options. DCD 2.2 Support higher density development along main corridors and at high visibility street corners to accommodate population growth and support businesses.

Project Summary The Department of Community Development received a Preliminary Plat Application on October 10, 2024 requesting to subdivide 9.82 acres to create two lots. One lot would contain the existing Gallatin County Rest Home, and a new northern lot would be created to facilitate an affordable housing project. On April 11, 2025 the applicant requested the application be revised to a 4-lot minor subdivision. With this revision, the originally planned northern lot was proposed to be further divided into 3 buildable lots with associated easements and right-of-way. Conditions of approval, code provisions, and findings for this 4-lot minor subdivision are contained in this report. The subject property is zoned R-4 (Residential High Density District). The proposed land use for the subdivision is multi-household (multi-family) residential. Lot 1 is intended for multi-household residential and currently proposed as the Hidden Creek affordable housing project under Site Plan (SP) Application 25084. Lot 2 is proposed to remain as the Gallatin County Rest Home. Lots 3 and 4 are shown as future phases. Lots 3, and 4 will be subject to further plan review and are currently proposed to be set aside for a community center and Community Land Trust homes, see application submittal Document 032 for proposed land uses. Exhibit 4 below shows proposed uses for Lot 1, and the locations of lots 3 and 4. Development of lots within the subdivision will be subject to Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) provisions at the time of development. No city parks are currently proposed within the proposed subdivision. Directly to the north of the subject property is a dedicated public park that was platted as a part of the Oak Meadows subdivision. Another public park is located one block to the northwest called Walton Homestead Park. Lot 1 is exempt from parkland review during subdivision review per BMC 38.420.020.B.1 for lots greater than 5-acres. Required parkland or cash-in-lieu of parkland (CILP) must be reviewed with the subsequent site plan application for Lot 1. The applicant is required to address required parkland for lots 3 and 4 with this subdivision application and has proposed to provide CILP for lots 3 and 4 for residential developments of unknown density. The applicant has agreed to provide a non-financial guarantee for required infrastructure with this subdivision per BMC 38.270.080.B. With site plan Application 25084, the applicant has proposed to extend Oak Park Drive to the south and install public utilities. Right-of-way (ROW) width constraints exist for the extension of Oak Park Drive into the subject property due to the adjacent unannexed land to the east. The Director of Transportation and Engineering determined 50 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 3 of 37 that given the inability of the applicant to acquire a street and utility easement from the neighboring property for half of the full Oak Park Drive right-of-way, a half street on the applicant's property will be adequate for the proposed land use. Working with City staff the applicant created a compliant City half-street section and 33-foot easement that will be able to be expanded to a full section when the adjacent property to the east develops. This proposal is outlined under Document 008 – Streets, Roads, and Grades. The applicant has requested concurrent construction. All improvements must be installed prior to the issuance of a building permit for any lot within a subdivision, except when concurrent construction is an identified purpose of the initial project review and approved pursuant to the criteria established in subsection D of BMC 38.270.030. Subsection D allows lots subject to site plan review to commence with vertical construction prior to installation of required infrastructure with concurrent construction approval. A concurrent construction request for construction of infrastructure and vertical construction of Site Plan 25084 will allow the applicant to complete infrastructure required to serve the proposed subdivision alongside on-site construction of the apartments. This concurrent construction plan was found to be sufficient by the Fire Department and staff. A gravel emergency access is proposed at the southern end of the future Oak Park Drive ROW from the rest home lot to facilitate secondary fire access from Durston Road. Final infrastructure review and approval and code provisions related to concurrent construction of infrastructure are located in Section 4 below. Exhibits 5-8 below show the proposed design of Oak Park Drive, as well as two pedestrian paths to be constructed east-west through the proposed subdivision to meet block length standards, and north-south through the rest home lot to connect residents to Durston Road and nearby sidewalks and schools. In addition, the development will extend a City water main from Juniper Street to the dead-end water main on the rest home property, effectively looping the water distribution network through the development. A ditch identified as an agricultural water users ditch runs along the east property line of the subject property. Document 027 contains a letter from Dan Triemstra, Secretary of the Farmers Canal Company, discussing the history of the ditch and that there are no longer means of diverting water to the ditch dated November 21, 2024. Per an email from Triemstra dated July 29, 2024 “The responsibility for maintaining laterals of Farmers Canal rests with the ditch users of each individual ditch.” Since ditch users are the only individuals that can declare a ditch abandoned, the applicant was instructed to work with the sole Agricultural Water User, Maxey Limited Partnership, to discuss removal or relocation of the ditch. An agreement between Maxey Limited Partnership and United Housing Partners or UHP (the site developer) is included in Document 27. This agreement allows the ditch to be moved further east to facilitate the construction of Oak Park Drive. Further discussion can be found in the staff analysis section for Agricultural Water User Facilities. Also see code provision 15 below for agricultural water user easement requirements. This subdivision application includes a departure request from BMC 38.320.030.A which provides a maximum lot area in R-4 of 2.5 acres. Lot 1 is proposed as 5.17 acres. Note 3 in this 51 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 4 of 37 code section states, “Departures from the maximum lot size requirements may be allowed where the planned development fits into the context of the neighborhood and proposed pedestrian and vehicular circulation measures meet community objectives.” Staff supports approval of this departure due to the applicant’s proposed pedestrian path and roadway extensions and compatible residential development. The applicant’s departure narrative may be found under Document 004. On August 25, 2025 the Development Review Committee (DRC) found the application sufficient for continued review and recommends the conditions and code provisions identified in this report. The subdivider did not request any variances with this application. Waivers were granted during pre-application review from documentation of compliance with adopted standards per BMC 38.220.060A.1-19 from the following code sections: Surface water A.1, Floodplains A.2, Agriculture A.7, Parks and recreation facilities A.14, Neighborhood Center Plan A.15, Lighting plan A.16, Miscellaneous (public lands, hazards, WUI) A.17, and Affordable housing A.18. The City did not receive any written public comment on the application as of the writing of this report. On October 6, 2025, the Community Development Board (CDB) meeting, board members acting in their capacity as the Planning Board voted 4-1 to recommend approval of this subdivision application.

The Final Plat application shall include one (1) signed reproducible copy on a 3 mil or heavier stable base polyester film (or equivalent). The Gallatin County Clerk & Recorders office has elected to continue the existing medium requirements of 1 mylar with a 1 binding margin on one side for both plats and COSs. The Clerk and Recorder will file the new Conditions of Approval sheet as the last same sized mylar sheet in the plat set 2. The applicant shall submit with the application for Final Plat review and approval, a written narrative stating how each of the conditions of preliminary plat approval and noted code provisions have been satisfactorily addressed. This narrative shall be in sufficient detail to direct the reviewer to the appropriate plat, plan, sheet, note, covenant, etc. in the submittal. 3. Section 38.270.080.B BMC allows a variety of means of providing for the security of improvements agreements, ensuring adequate maintenance of required improvements, coordinating the timing of development, and ensuring compliance with conditions of approval. The code allows both financial and non-financial securities to ensure installation and maintenance of required infrastructure. The method, terms, and amount of security must be acceptable to the city. The applicant has indicated in the application materials the preference to use nonfinancial securities to ensure completion of required infrastructure. To exercise this option with the final plat review, the following documents are required to be provided prior to final plat approval: a. The property owner must enter into an improvements agreement to ensure the installation of required infrastructure and other applicable improvements, to be secured by recording of a special restrictive covenant or deed restriction which may only be released by written agreement of the City. An Improvements Agreement listing all of the deferred infrastructure and securing installation with a non-financial guarantee of a deed restriction must be executed by both the 62 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 15 of 37 subdivider and subsequent owner(s)/developer(s). The city will provide a written document to the landowner releasing the security upon full completion and acceptance of the public improvements or execution of a subsequent Improvements Agreement secured with a financial guarantee for any improvements the City deems appropriate. b. The developer must execute a hold harmless and indemnification agreement indemnifying, defending and holding harmless the city, its employees, agents and assigns from and against any and all liabilities, loss, claims, causes of action, judgments and damages resulting from or arising out of withholding a certificate of occupancy until all required infrastructure improvements identified in the improvements agreement are accepted by the City or a subsequent improvements agreement with a financial security is executed ensuring installation. c. A deed restriction restricting the issuance of a certificate of occupancy of any building on all lots in the subdivision must be recorded. The deed restriction will require the current property owner and all known prospective owners to expressly acknowledge and consent that the City will withhold issuance of a certificate of occupancy for any building on all lots in the subdivision until all required infrastructure is completed and accepted by the City or its installation is subsequently guaranteed with a new Improvements Agreement and financial guarantee satisfactory to the City. d. A deed restriction restricting the issuance of building permits must be recorded for lots 3 and 4 detailing requirements for specific infrastructure completion and acceptance prior to building permit issuance. The deed restriction will require the current property owner and all known prospective owners to expressly acknowledge and consent that the City will withhold issuance of building permits for lots 3 and 4 until required infrastructure is completed and accepted by the City or installation is subsequently guaranteed with a new Improvements Agreement and financial guarantee satisfactory to the City. e. A separate deed restriction restricting the issuance of building permits must be recorded for lots 3 and 4 detailing the requirements for payment of cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication with subsequent site development. The deed restriction will require the current property owner and all known prospective owners to expressly acknowledge and consent that the City will withhold issuance of building permits for lots 3 and 4 until payment of cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication is satisfied. f. A note must be included on the plat referencing each deed restriction and the lot(s) to which each applies. g. A Certificate of Completion of Public Improvements must be added to the final plat that matches the language found in Sec. 38.240.450 BMC and must contain a list of all non-financially guaranteed improvements. 63 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 16 of 37 4. Lots 3 and 4 may defer payment of required cash-in-lieu of parkland (CILP) dedication at the time of final plat application. CILP value listed on the final plat must include a note that CILP value is an estimate and that final CILP values will use the valuation in effect at the time an application for final plan approval on Lot 3 or 4 is complete. 5. If CILP payment is deferred at time of final plat application, CILP for Lot 3 and 4 must be paid with subsequent site plan application and development. SECTION 4 – CODE REQUIREMENTS 1. BMC 38.100.050 and 38.100.070 – General Provisions. Prior to final plat approval, the applicant must provide and file with the County Clerk and Recorder's office new executed Waivers of Right to Protest Creation of Special Improvement Districts (SIDs) on City standard form for the following: a.

Prior to final plat, the applicant must provide a public drainage easement for all stormwater facilities located on private property that accept drainage from the public right-of-way. 15. Sec. 38.410.060 – Easements For Agricultural Water User Facilities. The applicant has proposed to move a portion of the existing irrigation ditch from its current location on the property border of the subject property and the adjacent property approximately seven feet to the east, which will relocate the ditch on the adjacent Maxey Limited Partnership property. Pursuant to 38.410.060.D.1.a.(2), a water user facility easement must provide a minimum easement width of ten feet on each side of irrigation canals and ditches. Additionally, the applicant has proposed to locate Oak Park Drive over the top of the ditch and ditch easement, which does not comply with the requirement of 38.410.060.D.1.c, which generally prohibits the placement of structures or the planting of vegetation other than grass within the agricultural water user facility easement and would result in overlapping easements for the required right-of-way and the water user facility. The applicant has identified one impacted water user, Maxey Limited Partnership, claiming a water right from the existing ditch. Maxey Limited Partnership owns the adjacent land on which the relocated ditch and associated easement are proposed to be located. The following items are required to comply with section 38.410.060.D: a. On the final plat application, the applicant must comply with 38.410.060.A.1 by describing, dimensioning, and showing, the true and correct location of all easements, including the water user facility and its associated easement. b. Prior to final plat approval, the applicant must provide to the City written approval from the impacted water user and adjacent property owner for the relocation of the ditch to the east in a manner that ensures the ditch and accompanying maintenance easement do not overlap with the right-of-way for Oak Park Drive, providing consent to the encroachment or impairment of the ditch as required by MCA 70-17-112(3), and the recordation of a ditch easement encumbering the adjacent property. Relocation of the ditch should also avoid overlap with any other easement or required infrastructure, including the gravel emergency only access and the pedestrian access easement. If overlap of the ditch easement with the gravel emergency only access and the pedestrian access easement is unavoidable due to necessary ditch and maintenance easement location, prior to final plat approval, the applicant must provide the City with an executed agreement with the adjacent property owner that grants permission for any encroachment into the water user facility easement and must clearly demonstrate that the Maxey Limited Partnership understands and accepts that backfill and grading changes associated with moving the irrigation ditch and construction of infrastructure, including Oak Park Drive, the emergency access, and pedestrian facilities, will take place on their property c. Prior to final plat approval, the applicant must provide to the City a water user facility easement encumbering the adjacent property for the benefit of all who hold a water right conveyed by the ditch and executed by all owners of the 68 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 21 of 37 adjacent property. The easement must be acceptable to the Bozeman City Attorney, include all notices to future owners required by 38.410.060.D.6, and must be recorded simultaneously with the final plat. The easement must be prepared as a document separate from the final plat, but may be referenced on the final plat. d. Prior to final plat approval, the developer’s professional engineer must certify that the water entering and exiting the realigned or relocated agricultural water user facility is the same quality and amount of water that entered or exited the facility prior to the realignment or relocation of the ditch, pursuant to 38.410.060.D.3. e. The applicant is advised that as an alternative to providing the documents required by code provision 15.a-d described above, the applicant may provide the City with evidence that the water user facility and associated “easements have been extinguished pursuant to state law, or the holder of the easement consents in writing to the extinguishment, or the easement is not required per subsection D.2” in which case the developer may remove ditch laterals from within the subdivision, as provided in BMC section 38.410.060.D.5. 16. Sec. 38.410.080.D – Grading and Drainage. The applicant is proposing multiple lots under separate ownership that will discharge to shared stormwater retention facilities. Pursuant to BMC 38.200.010.D.11. The City engineer will grant an exception to the development to utilize a shared stormwater easement and agreement instead of a separate private lot for stormwater management. Prior to final plat approval, the applicant must provide a copy of the recorded Shared Stormwater Easement and Agreement (Agreement) that has been approved by the City. a. The shared stormwater easement and agreement must include adequate details summarizing maintenance requirements, associated costs, access to the facilities, and other necessary provisions as outlined in 38.220.320. 17. Sec. 38.410.130 - Water Adequacy. The City Water adequacy code must be satisfied at the final plat approval. The applicant has indicated they intend to pay cash-in-lieu of water with future development to satisfy the code. Water adequacy code requirements may be deferred until future development. A note must be included on the plat to notify future owners of the restriction pursuant to 38.410.130.C and approved by Staff prior final plat approval. 18. Sec. 38.420.020 – Park area requirements, Sec. 38.420.030 – Cash donation in-lieu of land dedication. a. Sec. 38.420.020.A.2.a.(2) – Lots 3 and 4 are subject to parkland dedication requirements for an area equal to that required for eight dwelling units at the time of preliminary plat. Subsequent development of Lots 3 and 4 may require additional cash-in-lieu pursuant to section 38.420.020.A.2.b. b. Sec. 38.420.020.B.1 – Lot 1 is larger than 5 acres and exempt from parkland dedication at time of preliminary plat.

In considering applications for subdivision approval under this title, the advisory boards and City Commission shall consider the following: 1) Compliance with the survey requirements of Part 4 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The preliminary plat was prepared in accordance with the surveying and monumentation requirements of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Montana. As noted in the code requirements, the final plat must comply with State statute, Administrative Rules of Montana, and the Bozeman Municipal Code. 2) Compliance with the local subdivision regulations provided for in Part 5 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The final plat must comply with the standards identified and referenced in the Bozeman Municipal Code. The subdivider is advised that unmet code provisions, or code provisions not 70 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 23 of 37 specifically listed as a condition of approval, do not, in any way, create a waiver or other relaxation of the lawful requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code or State law. Sections 3 and 4 of this report identify conditions and code provisions necessary to meet all municipal standards. The listed code requirements address necessary documentation and compliance with standards. Therefore, upon satisfaction of all conditions and code corrections the subdivision will comply with the subdivision regulations. 3) Compliance with the local subdivision review procedures provided for in Part 6 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The Bozeman Planning Board and City Commission public meetings were properly noticed in accordance with the Bozeman Municipal Code. Based on the recommendation of the Development Review Committee (DRC) and other applicable review agencies, as well as any public testimony received on the matter, the City Commission will make the final decision on the subdivider’s request. Review of this subdivision was conducted under the terms of 76-3-616 MCA as authorized in 38.240.100. The Department of Community Development received a preliminary plat application on October 10, 2024. The DRC reviewed the preliminary plat application and determined the submittal did not contain detailed, supporting information that was sufficient to allow for the continued review of the proposed subdivision. A revised application was received on January 23, 2025, March 14, 2025, May 7, 2025, and July l9, 2025, With each submittal, the DRC determined the application was still not sufficient for continued review. A revised application was received on August 13, 2025. The DRC determined the application was adequate for continued review August 25, 2025 and recommended conditions of approval and the code corrections for the staff report. The applicant posted public notice on the subject property on August 22, 2025. The applicant sent public notice to all landowners of record within 200-feet of the subject property via first class mail, on August 21, 2025. No public comment had been received on this application as of the writing of this report. On September 29, 2025 a major subdivision staff report for a subsequent minor subdivision was completed and forwarded with a recommendation of conditional approval for consideration to the Planning Board and City Commission. On October 6, 2025, the Community Development Board (CDB) meeting, board members acting in their capacity as the Planning Board voted 4-1 to recommend approval of this subdivision application. No discussion was provided. Questions were asked of staff and the applicant regarding the Traffic Impact Study. No public comment was received. A video of the meeting may be viewed on the City’s streaming website. 71 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 24 of 37 The final decision for this preliminary plat must be made by October 15, 2025 or 35 working days from the sufficiency date per BMC 38.240.100 and MCA 76-3-616 for exempt subdivisions. On October 7, 2025, the City Commission voted unanimously 5-0 to approve consent agenda items H.2 – H.17. This subdivision was approved with that vote as agenda item H.8. No discussion was provided. A video of the City Commission meeting may be viewed on the City’s streaming website. No public comment was received. Before the vote, the City Manager provided a memo from staff updating the City Commission on the proceedings of the October 6, 2025 CDB meeting. 4) Compliance with Chapter 38, BMC and other relevant regulations Community Development staff and the DRC reviewed the preliminary plat against all applicable regulations and the application complies with the BMC and all other relevant regulations with conditions and code corrections. This report includes Conditions of Approval and required code provisions as recommended by the DRC for consideration by the City Commission to complete the application processing for final plat approval. All municipal water and sewer facilities will conform to the regulations outlined by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and the requirements of the Design Standards and Specifications Policy (DSSP) and the City of Bozeman Modifications to Montana Public Works Standard Specifications. Water/sewer – Document 028 contains the preliminary analysis for water adequacy, water and sewer main availability, proposed easements, and demand calculations for water systems improvements in the proposed subdivision, stamped by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Montana. This information was reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with state and local Public Works Standard Specifications, the City’s design standards, the City of Bozeman Water Facility Plan, and the City of Bozeman Fire Service Line Standard and found to meet with code provisions the City’s review requirements at the preliminary level. With the concurrent construction and improvements agreement proposal in the application, further review of infrastructure will commence during subsequent review of the proposed site plan application. Per the submittal “There is an existing 8” ductile iron watermain that extends north from Durston and ends in the Gallatin County Rest Home parking lot.” With future development, the proposed site plan will tie into this water main on the Rest Home property, be constructed north through the proposed Oak Park Drive easement, and will connect to the water main at the intersection of Juniper Street and Oak Park Drive. This water main extension will satisfy the City’s water main looping standard and provide redundancy in the municipal water system that will increase the reliability of the utility. There are two existing sewer mains that run through the subject property. Per the submittal there is an “… existing 18” asbestos concrete sewer main running through the north side of the site and an existing 24” asbestos concrete sewer main running along the eastern edge of the site.” With existing wastewater infrastructure currently present on the site, service line connections will be achievable during subsequent development with no sewer main extensions necessary. 72 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 25 of 37 Final plans and specifications will be prepared and reviewed after action on the preliminary plat, during infrastructure review with Public Works. Code provision 17 requires the applicant offset estimated water demand prior to final plat approval per subsection D of BMC 38.410.130. Per this section, the application may either transfer water rights into city ownership that are appurtenant to the land being developed or as acceptable to the city, provide payment of cash-in-lieu of water rights at a rate established by the most recent City Commission resolution, or a combination of both. If insufficient water rights exist, the Landowner must pay cash in lieu of water rights, in any amount determined by the Director of Utilities, prior to development. Easements - The final plat must provide and depict all necessary utilities and required utility easements. Code provision 14 requires that all easements, existing and proposed, must be accurately depicted and addressed on the final plat and in the final plat application. Public utilities will be located within dedicated street right of ways, within existing easements, or within new easements. The applicant must submit for review and approval all easements, which designate space for public or private utilities that are not in the designated public right of way. Additional required easements include easements for all shared stormwater facilities, pedestrian access easements to mitigate block length, and an agricultural water user’s easement for the sections of the unnamed ditch located on the eastern edge of the property. All easements must be provided using the City’s standard language. Ten-foot front yard utility easements are depicted on the preliminary plat and are proposed to be granted with the final plat in accordance with standards. Copies of additional existing easements are required to be provided with the final plat application. Required easements are outlined in code provisions 14, 15, and 16. Parks – The applicant proposes to meet Park and Recreation requirements through a cash-in-lieu of parkland (CILP) payment to the city. No parkland dedication is proposed with this minor subdivision. Lot 1 is exempt from parkland review during subdivision review per BMC 38.420.020.B.1 for lots greater than 5-acres. Required parkland or cash-in-lieu of parkland (CILP) must be reviewed with the subsequent site plan application for Lot 1. The parkland requirements will only apply to Lots 3 and 4. Commission Resolution No. 4784 provides criteria for evaluation of CILP proposals. The size of Lot 3 (0.184 acres) and Lot 4 (0.427 acres) limit the practicability of dedicating park. Additionally, there are several existing parks within 0.50 miles of the subject property, including Oak Meadows Park, Walton Homestead Park, Westlake Park, and Kirk Park. The acceptance of CILP enables accomplishment of other city priorities and is also the expressed preference of the developer. Condition of approval 5 allows Lot 3 and Lot 4 to defer CILP payment at the time of final plat approval. Condition of Approval 3.e and Condition of approval 4 requires Lot 3 and Lot 4 to file deed restrictions ensuring CILP is paid prior to any residential development approvals for those lots. Code provision 18 provides requirements for subsequent site plan development including final evaluation and determination of parkland dedication requirements and determination of final cash-in-lieu values. A final cash-in-lieu value will be determined at the time of final plat of 73 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 26 of 37 final plan approval and must be reflected in the parkland tracking table provided on the conditions of approval sheet for the plat. Lot 1 CILP must be evaluated and paid with the subsequent site plan application for the affordable housing project (Site Plan Application 25084). Stormwater – A stormwater management memo was provided by WWC Engineering under Document 029. This memo details proposed stormwater improvements evaluated with this preliminary plat application. The Hidden Creek development proposes two stages of stormwater improvements. Since the undeveloped lot area to the north of the existing rest home currently captures overland drainage flows from the developed rest home area, the applicant is proposing to provide new stormwater improvements on the northwest corner of the Rest Home property to capture flows from the existing parking lot draining to the northern lots where the new Lots 1, 3, and 4 are proposed to be created. Code provision 7 requires the applicant to make these improvements prior to final plat approval. No development of lots 1,3, and 4 is proposed with this subdivision application. Condition of approval 3 requires deed restrictions be put in place to ensure delivery of required infrastructure prior to building permit issuance or certificate of occupancy issuance for these lots if the applicant requests a non-financial guarantee for completion of required improvements with their final plat application. This will ensure compliance with required infrastructure improvements but will allow the site developer to take on financial responsibility for subdivision infrastructure. Code Provision 6 outlines requirements with a concurrent construction request. The second stage of stormwater development for this site is currently proposed to occur under site plan application 25084. The applicant also included a copy of the preliminary stormwater management design report for the subsequent site plan application (#25084). This report was prepared and stamped by a professional engineer with WWC Engineering and is located under application Document 029. This report was reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with state and local Public Works Standard Specifications, the City’s design standards, and the Bozeman Municipal Code. The site plan will construct stormwater control facilities to conform to municipal code and design standards. The applicant is proposing multiple lots under separate ownership that will discharge to shared stormwater retention facilities. Prior to final plat approval, the applicant must provide a copy of the recorded Shared Stormwater Easement and Agreement (Agreement) that has been approved by the City. The Agreement needs to include adequate details summarizing maintenance requirements and associated costs for the shared stormwater facilities. This requirement is located under code provision 16 in this report. This will ensure the proper maintenance of necessary stormwater infrastructure as the subdivision is developed and occupied. An associated plat note is required per code provision 3 to notify future property owners of their requirements for ongoing maintenance of these stormwater facilities. Agricultural water user facility – The applicant provided documentation of downstream agricultural water users and notification. In accordance with BMC 38.360.280, notice was 74 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 27 of 37 provided to those users with this preliminary plat application. There is one ditch used to convey water for agricultural uses along the east property line of the subject property. Document 027 contains a letter from Dan Triemstra, Secretary of the Farmers Canal Company, discussing the history of the ditch and that there are no longer means of diverting water to the ditch dated November 21, 2024. Per an email from Triemstra dated July 29, 2024 “The responsibility for maintaining laterals of Farmers Canal rests with the ditch users of each individual ditch.” Since ditch users are the only individuals that can declare a ditch abandoned, the applicant was instructed to work with the sole Agricultural Water User, Maxey Limited Partnership, to discuss removal or relocation of the ditch. An agreement between Maxey Limited Partnership and United Housing Partners or UHP (the site developer) is included in Document 44. This agreement allows the ditch to be moved further east to facilitate the construction of Oak Park Drive. An agricultural water user’s easement must be provided per code provision 15. The easements must be prepared as documents separate from the final plat but may be referenced on the final plat. Per code provision 15, Alterations to agricultural water user facilities must be approved by all owners of the facility as required under MCA 70-17-112. Documentation of the approval must be provided for the alterations of the agricultural water user facilities prior to final plat approval. In addition, the applicant must secure the necessary easements and agreements from the Maxey Limited Partnership to fill in and move the irrigation ditch from the property boundary onto the Maxey Limited Partnership property in order to construct Oak Park Drive up to the property boundary prior to final plat approval. If unavoidable due to necessary ditch and maintenance easement location, approval from the easement holder for encroachments into the agricultural water user’s easement necessary for the function of the site, including along the proposed Oak Park Drive right-of-way used for an emergency gravel access road, and along the east side of the rest home lot to facilitate pedestrian access are required to be provided with final plat. The agreement must clearly demonstrate that the Maxey Limited Partnership understands and accepts that backfill and grading changes associated with moving the irrigation ditch and the construction of Oak Park Drive will take place on their property. Prior to final plat approval, the developer’s professional engineer must certify that the water entering and exiting the realigned or relocated agricultural water user facility is the same quality and amount of water that entered or exited the facility prior to the realignment or relocation of the ditch, pursuant to 38.410.060.D.3. These code provisions are required to ensure compliance with state and local law regarding agricultural water user facilities, and to ensure maintenance access to the remaining ag. water facility user. Police/Fire – The City of Bozeman’s Police and Fire emergency response area includes this subject property. The subdivision does not impact the City’s ability to provide emergency services to the subject property. The necessary addresses will be provided to enable 911 response to individual parcels prior to recording of the final plat. For lots subject to site plan review, addressing will be provided following the plan review process, and are dependent on the design 75 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 28 of 37 and arrangement of buildings. Fire protection standards require installation of fire hydrants at designated spacing to ensure adequate protection. A secondary fire access is proposed at the southern end of the terminus of Oak Park Drive and has been evaluated by the Fire Department. The fire access is considered required infrastructure to be completed per an approved concurrent construction plan, and will be evaluated further during the infrastructure review process. 5) The provision of easements to and within the subdivision for the location and installation of any necessary utilities The final plat will provide and depict all necessary utilities and required utility easements. Code requirement 14 requires that all easements, existing and proposed, must be accurately depicted and addressed on the final plat and in the final plat application. Public utilities are generally located within dedicated street right of ways. Easements for the future roadway along the east side of the lot is required prior to final plat approval. 6) The provision of legal and physical access to each parcel within the subdivision and the notation of that access on the applicable plat and any instrument transferring the parcel The final plat will provide legal and physical access to two parcels within the subdivision with the recommended conditions of approval and code provisions. Lots 1 and 2 will have legal and physical access to each lot from an existing public street. Lots 3 and 4 will have legal access following final plat approval via a required easement for the future Oak Park Drive extension per code provision 14. Lots 3 and 4 will not have physical access. The applicant has requested an improvements agreement for required infrastructure with a non-financial guarantee to secure final plat approval. With the final plat application submittal, the application will be subject to condition of approval 3 and code provision 6. To exercise the option of a non-financial guarantee, Condition 4 requires a deed restriction withholding building permits be filed for lots 3 and 4 detailing the requirements for infrastructure completion and acceptance prior to building permit issuance. The deed restriction will include an acknowledgment and consent language and must be executed by the subdivider and subsequent owner(s)/developer(s). Per condition 3.f, a plat note must also be included with the final plat application referencing deed restrictions as a notification for all future property owners. Documentation of compliance with adopted standards 38.220.060 The Development Review Committee (DRC) completed a subdivision pre-application plan review on March 8, 2024 and no variances were requested. Waivers were granted during pre- application review from documentation of compliance with adopted standards per BMC 38.220.060A.1-19 from the following code sections: Surface water A.1, Floodplains A.2, Agriculture A.7, Parks and recreation facilities A.14, Neighborhood Center Plan A.15, Lighting plan A.16, Miscellaneous (public lands, hazards, WUI) A.17, and Affordable housing A.18.

See above analysis for Agricultural Water Users Facilities. 38.220.060.A.2 - Floodplains Supplemental documentation of compliance with this adopted standard was waived during the pre-application review. No floodplains are located on the subject property and no flood hazard evaluation was required by reviewing staff. 38.220.060.A.3 - Groundwater A groundwater investigation was completed between May 2024 and July 2024 by IMEG and is provided in the application documents under Document 023 within the Geotechnical Investigation Report. This report has been stamped and signed by a professional engineer registered in the State of Montana and reviewed by the Engineering Division against code requirements in Chapter 38 and engineering design manuals and was found to meet standards. Per the report “Groundwater or seepage was not observed within the exploratory test pits excavated during the site visit. Evidence of seasonally high groundwater was also not observed within the depth of exploration.” No groundwater hazards to future residents or structures was identified by staff, and no code provisions related to groundwater have been provided. 38.220.060.A.4 - Geology, Soils and Slopes No significant geological features or slopes exist on the site. A geotechnical investigation report was provided by IMEG and has been stamped and signed by a professional engineer registered in the State of Montana and reviewed by the Engineering Division for compliance with City standards. This is located in application Document 023. 38.220.060.A.5 - Vegetation This subdivision will not significantly impact vegetation. No critical plant communities were identified on site. A vegetation memo is located under Document 024. Per the memo “A noxious weed management and revegetation plan for this property has been created by 406 Weeds and is included in this submittal.” 38.220.060.A.6 - Wildlife This subdivision will not significantly impact wildlife. There are no known critical habitats on the property or observed or mapped threatened or endangered species. The applicant provided a technical memo under Document 025. An email from Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks (MT FWP) was provided and is dated December 4, 2024. Per the email “FWP area biologists have reviewed the proposal and have no comments to offer.” 38.220.060.A.7 - Agriculture This subdivision will not impact agriculture. The site an undeveloped lot mostly surrounded by urban development. No continuance of agricultural activities is proposed as the subdivision is developed through current and future phasing. The area is zoned for residential uses per the R-4 77 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 30 of 37 zoning district. Supplemental documentation of compliance with adopted standards per this section was waived with the pre-application review. Adjacent intermittent agricultural uses are present along the eastern property boundary. Document 027 contains a draft agreement with the adjacent property owner regarding providing and maintaining a fence line between the subject property and the adjacent agricultural uses. 38.220.060.A.8 - Agricultural Water User Facilities See discussion above under primary review criteria. Also see Document 027. 38.220.060.A.9 - Water and Sewer Water and sewer improvements will be designed to meet City of Bozeman Standards and State Department of Environmental Quality Standards and Regulations. Also see discussion above. 38.220.060.A.10 - Stormwater Management See discussion above under primary review criteria. 38.220.060.A.11 - Streets, Roads and Alleys The subdivision will provide adequate improvements to support the proposed development by extending a local street to provide local street access to the proposed developable lots. The applicant has agreed to provide a non-financial guarantee for required infrastructure with this subdivision per BMC 38.270.080.B. With site plan Application 25084, the applicant has proposed to extend Oak Park Drive to the south and install public utilities. Right-of-way (ROW) width constraints exist for the extension of Oak Park Drive into the subject property due to the adjacent unannexed land to the east. The Director of Transportation and Engineering determined that given the inability of the applicant to acquire a street and utility easement from the neighboring property for half of the full Oak Park Drive right-of-way, a city half street on the applicant's property will be adequate for the proposed land use. Working with City staff the applicant created a compliant half-street section and 33-foot easement that will be able to be expanded to a full section when the adjacent property to the east develops. This proposal is outlined under Document 008 – Streets, Roads, and Grades. No phasing of infrastructure and no development of lots 1,3, and 4 is proposed with this subdivision application. Easements are required to be provided with final plat for all required street and pedestrian transportation connections. Condition of approval 3 requires deed restrictions be put in place to ensure delivery of required infrastructure prior to building permit issuance or certificate of occupancy issuance for these lots if the applicant requests a non- financial guarantee for completion of required improvements with their final plat application. This will ensure compliance with required infrastructure improvements but will allow the site developer to take on financial responsibility for subdivision infrastructure. Code Provision 5 outlines requirements with a concurrent construction request. Future roadway locations, easements, and design are located in Document 30. 78 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 31 of 37 A Traffic Impact Study (TIS) dated September 2025, stamped and signed by a professional engineer, was provided and evaluated by the reviewing engineer for compliance with adopted design standards and code requirements including trip distribution, intersection function, crash data, and level of service. The findings for this report states “As proposed, the Hidden Creek Community will not create any roadway capacity problems in this area. The existing signalized intersections on 15th Avenue at Oak Street and Durston Road will function adequately through full build-out of the project with no modifications. Most other intersections within the study area will function well within capacity through 2040.” City staff concurs with the findings in the TIS. 38.220.060.A.12 – Non-Municipal Utilities The applicant has received confirmation of future service connections from Northwestern Energy, and Charter Communications for the proposed subdivision. These responses are provided under Document 031. 38.220.060.A.13 - Land Use The subject property is zoned R-4 (Residential High Density District). The proposed land use for the subdivision is multi-household (multi-family) residential. Lot 1 is intended for multi- household residential and currently proposed as the Hidden Creek affordable housing project under Site Plan (SP) Application 25084. Lot 2 is proposed to remain as the Gallatin County Rest Home. Lots 3 and 4 are shown as future phases. Lots 3, and 4 will be subject to further plan review and are currently proposed to be set aside for a community center and Community Land Trust homes, see application submittal Document 032 for proposed land uses. Development of lots within the subdivision will be subject to Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) provisions at the time of development. 38.220.060.A.14 - Parks and Recreation Facilities Supplemental documentation of compliance with this adopted standard was waived during the pre-application review due to exemptions for required parkland per BMC 38.420.020.B.1 for lots greater than 5-acres. On April 11, 2025 the applicant requested the application be revised to a 4- lot minor subdivision. With this revision, the originally planned northern lot was proposed to be further divided into 3 buildable lots with associated easements and right-of-way. Lots 3 and 4 are subject to required parkland with this subdivision. The proposed subdivision will provide cash- in-lieu of parkland dedication. The proposal meets the criteria of Commission Resolution 4784. The Parks Department reviewed the parkland proposal, also see the discussion above under the primary review criteria. 38.220.060.A.15 - Neighborhood Center Plan To provide a neighborhood focal point, all residential subdivisions that are ten net acres in size or greater, must have a neighborhood center. Supplemental documentation of compliance with this adopted standard was waived during the pre-application review due to the size of the development falling under 10 net acres. 79 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 32 of 37 38.220.060.A.16 - Lighting Plan Supplemental documentation of compliance with this adopted standard was waived during the pre-application review for street lighting. Subdivision or street lighting is required pursuant to BMC 38.570.030. All street lights installed must use LED light heads and must conform to the City’s requirement for cut-off shields as required by the City’s specifications. A Special Improvement Lighting District (SILD) must be created prior to occupancy of any buildings in the subdivision. Code provision 10 is related to this requirement. 38.220.060.A.17 - Miscellaneous The proposed subdivision is not located within 200 feet of any public land access or within a delineated Wildland Urban Interface area. No health or safety hazards on-site or off-site will be created with this development. Supplemental documentation of compliance with this adopted standard was waived during the pre-application review. 38.220.060.A.19 - Affordable Housing This application does not rely on incentives authorized in 38.380. Therefore, no analysis is required. Proposed future site development for affordable housing will be evaluated with the subsequent site plan application. SECTION 7 - FINDINGS OF FACT, ORDER AND APPEAL PROVISIONS A. PURSUANT to Chapter 38, Article 2, BMC, and other applicable sections of Chapter 38, BMC, public notice was given, opportunity to submit comment was provided to affected parties, and a review of the preliminary plat described in these findings of fact was conducted. B. The purposes of the preliminary plat review were to consider all relevant evidence relating to public health, safety, welfare, and the other purposes of Chapter 38, BMC; to evaluate the proposal against the criteria and standards of Chapter 38 BMC; and to determine whether the plat should be approved, conditionally approved, or denied.

DATED this ________ day of _____________________, 2025 BOZEMAN CITY COMMISSION _________________________________ TERENCE CUNNINGHAM Mayor 81 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 34 of 37 ATTEST: _______________________________ MIKE MAAS City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: _________________________________ GREG SULLIVAN City Attorney APPENDIX A – PROJECT SITE ZONING AND GROWTH POLICY Zoning Designation and Land Uses: The subject property is zoned R-4, Residential High Density District. The intent of the R-4 residential high density district is to provide for high-density residential development through a variety of housing types within the city with associated service functions. This purpose is accomplished by: 1. Providing for minimum lot sizes in developed areas consistent with the established development patterns while providing greater flexibility for clustering lots and mixing housing types in newly developed areas. 2. Providing for a variety of compatible housing types, including single and multi-household dwellings to serve the varying needs of the community's residents. 3. Allowing office use as a secondary use, measured by percentage of total building area. Use of this zone is appropriate for areas adjacent to mixed-use districts, commercial districts, and/or served by transit to accommodate a higher density of residents in close proximity to jobs and services. The proposed subdivision is appropriate for this zone because it will add housing variety to the area near mixed-use and commercial districts and areas served by transit. 82 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 35 of 37 Adopted Growth Policy Designation: Table 4 of the Bozeman Community Plan 2020 shows the correlation between future land use map designations and implementing zoning districts. (See below for the Table) The subject property is designated as Urban Neighborhood. This category primarily includes urban density homes in a variety of types, shapes, sizes, and intensities. Large areas of any single type of housing are discouraged. In limited instances, an area may develop at a lower gross density due to site constraints and/or natural features such as floodplains or steep slopes. Complementary uses such as parks, home-based occupations, fire stations, churches, schools, and some neighborhood-serving commerce provide activity centers for community gathering and services. The Urban Neighborhood designation indicates that development is expected to occur within municipal boundaries. This may require annexation prior to development. Applying a zoning district to specific parcels sets the required and allowed density. Higher density residential areas are encouraged to be, but are not required or restricted to, proximity to commercial mixed-use areas to facilitate the provision of services and employment opportunities without requiring the use of a car. This proposed subdivision is well suited to implement the Urban Neighborhood designation by providing opportunity for residential development on an infill parcel. The proposed newly created lots will be in close proximity to commercial and mixed-use areas, as well as schools. The proposed subdivision is also planning pedestrian amenities that will connect residents to 83 24533 Findings of Fact and Order for Hidden Creek Subdivision Page 36 of 37 nearby parks, schools, and the larger pedestrian transportation network. Density and individual uses will be evaluated at the time of development against the R-4 zoning requirements. The proposed subdivision meets the following Bozeman Community Plan 2020 goals: N-1 Support well-planned, walkable neighborhoods. N-1.1 Promote housing diversity. N-1.9 Ensure multimodal connections between adjacent developments. N-1.10 Increase connectivity between parks and neighborhoods through continued trail and sidewalk development. Prioritize closing gaps within the network. DCD - 1 Support urban development within the city.

The prospective primary tier participant shall submit an explanation of why it cannot provide the certification set out below. The certification or explanation will be considered in connection with the department or agency's determination whether to enter into this transaction. However, failure of the prospective primary tier participant to furnish a 144 certification or an explanation shall disqualify such person from participation in this transaction. 3.

A participant in a covered transaction may rely upon a certification of a prospective participant in a lower tier covered transaction that it is not proposed for debarment under 48 CFR part 9, subpart 9.4, debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that the certification is erroneous. A participant is responsible for ensuring that its principals are not suspended, debarred, or otherwise ineligible to participate in covered transactions.

BACKGROUND:The Bozeman Public Safety Center, constructed in 2022, includes 4 hydraulic elevators installed by TK Elevator which service public and staff areas as well as Bozeman Municipal Courts. The Public Safety Center has a backup generator to ensure the function of essential public safety systems in the event of power failure, however the elevators are not connected to the backup power circuits. Currently, if a power failure occurs the elevators will go offline and must be manually returned to the ground floor with the firefighters emergency operation key. The elevators installed at BPSC have the build in capability to automatically return the elevator car to the main floor and open the doors upon loss of power, but require a backup battery which was not included when the BPSC was constructed. This contract is for TK Elevator to install the battery packs and configure the elevators to go into automatic recall mode when power is lost, ensuring anyone in the elevators during a power loss does not become temporarily trapped in the car. UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None at this time. ALTERNATIVES:As suggested by Bozeman City Commission. FISCAL EFFECTS:This contract will incur a fixed cost expense of $7,907.68 for the installation of battery packs at all four BPSC elevators to be paid out of the BPSC Facilities operating budget.

The Facilities Department contracts for these services on a 5-year term basis, with our expiring snow removal contract covering Fiscal Years FY21-FY25.

Based on the evaluation of the proposal scoring and subsequent interviews, K2 Ventures Inc. was identified as the lowest responsible proposer for this contract and was selected for award of the contract. This contract for snow removal services will be for an initial term of 3 years with the option to renew annually for a maximum term of 5 years. The contractor will be responsible for plowing parking lots and drive lanes, clearing sidewalks, and mitigating ice. Services provided under this contract will billed on a per-unit basis dependent on snowfall. UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None at this time. 142 ALTERNATIVES:As suggested by City Commission. FISCAL EFFECTS:This contract will incur expenses on a per-service basis according to the pricing sheets included in Exhibit A, to be paid from the Facilities Dept. operating budget.

STRATEGIC PLAN:4.3 Strategic Infrastructure Choices: Prioritize long-term investment and maintenance for existing and new infrastructure. BACKGROUND:Lyman Creek is the City of Bozeman’s original municipal water supply, dating back to the late 19th century, and provides approximately twenty percent of the City’s water. The supply originates as a spring on the western side of the Bridger Range and is conveyed, stored, and treated before entering the distribution system in the northeast corner of the City. The transmission system for the Lyman supply varies in age, with the oldest components still in use approaching 100 years of service. The Lyman transmission system comprises both raw and potable mains. The raw water transmission main runs for approximately two miles from the spring source to the reservoir’s inlet building. The main is a mix of 16-inch ductile iron and 18-inch asbestos concrete and cast iron. The potable water portion runs approximately two miles from the Lyman Reservoir outlet building to the Pear Street Booster Station. The main is primarily 18-inch cast iron originally installed in the 1920s, with some minor segments upgraded to ductile iron in 1969, 2006, 2007 and 2021. The City recognizes the need to proactively plan and maintain its water system, and in doing so, is initiating the predesign phase of the Lyman Transmission Project, identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as Project No. W87. The predesign phase of the project will entail a detailed condition assessment of the Lyman Creek system potable water transmission main and the 18-inch asbestos concrete portion of the raw 180 water main, known to be the most critical, to thoroughly understand the condition of the system. Using the condition assessment, an engineering analysis will be performed to arrive at recommendations about how best to rehabilitate the transmission system. From the recommendations, the City will determine how to move forward into the design and construction phases of the project. HDR Engineering, Inc. was selected to provide engineering services for the Lyman Transmission project pursuant to formal procurement action under Sec. 18-8-204 Montana Code Annotated. The scope of service in the attached professional services agreement (PSA) with HDR covers the entirety of the predesign phase. Note that both the Lyman Transmission Predesign and the Lyman Reservoir Predesign, currently underway, are both identified in the CIP No. W87, the efforts are separate. UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None ALTERNATIVES:As suggested by the Commission FISCAL EFFECTS:The negotiated costs for the attached PSA total $448,905. These costs are funded by Commission approved budget appropriations for CIP No. W87. Including the Lyman Reservoir Predesign, the current unobligated budget authority available in FY26 for CIP No. W87 is $796,600. Adequate funding exists to cover the cost of the negotiated PSA.

The amount of water rights or cash-in-lieu thereof due at the time of further development or subdivision of the property will be calculated based on the annual demand for volume of water the development will require multiplied by the most current annual unit price in effect on the date the water rights are transferred or payment-in-lieu of water rights is to be made to the City. As such, the Landowner acknowledges that the rates for cash in-lieu of water rights may increase over time as established by Resolution of the City Commission. As such, the Landowner acknowledges that the rates for cash in-lieu of water rights may increase over time as established by Resolution of the City Commission. Domestic water demand from the single residential house falls below the City threshold (0.25AF). Therefore, no cash-in-lieu of water is required. 8. Comprehensive Water and Water Design Report Prior to future development of the property the City may require the Landowner to have prepared by a Professional Engineer, at Landowner’s sole expense, a comprehensive design report evaluating existing capacity of sewer and water utilities in the area. The report must include hydraulic evaluations of each utility for both existing and post-development demands, and the 232 2221 SOUTH 3RD AVENUE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT 7 report findings must demonstrate adequate capacity to serve the full development of the land. If adequate infrastructure capacity is not available for the proposed development, the report must identify necessary water or wastewater system improvements necessary for the proposed development. If improvements to this water or wastewater system are necessary, the Landowner agrees prior to development of the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION to complete, at Landowner’s expense, the necessary system improvements to serve the proposed development. 9. Future Development Limitations The Landowner shall be responsible for installing all facilities required to provide full municipal services to the property in accordance with the City’s Infrastructure Master Plans and all City regulations, policies and guidelines that may be in effect at the time of any future development. Thus, Landowner understands and agrees Landowner has no right, either granted or implied, for it to further develop any of the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION until it is verified by the City that the necessary municipal services, including but not limited to police and fire protection, parks and recreation, transportation, and sewer and water capacity, are available to all or a portion of the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION. Notice is thus provided to the Landowner that prior to additional development of the property, the Landowner will be solely responsible for installing, at Landowner’s sole expense, any facilities or infrastructure required to provide full municipal services to the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION in accordance with the City’s infrastructure plans, adopted Growth Policies/Community Plans, and all other city regulations, policies and guidelines that may be in effect at the time of development. 233 2221 SOUTH 3RD AVENUE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT 8 10. Stormwater Master Plan Landowner understands and agrees a Stormwater Master Plan for the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION for a system designed to remove solids, oils, grease, and other pollutants from the runoff from public streets and other impermeable surfaces may be required to be provided to and approved by the City Engineer at the time of any future development. The plan must demonstrate that adequate treatment of runoff from public streets, other impermeable surfaces, and all future lots will be achieved by providing spot elevations, flow direction arrows, detention and/or retention basin details (including basin sizing calculations and basin typical sections), outlet structure details, and culvert capacity calculations. The plan must also locate and provide easements for adequate drainage ways within the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION to transport treated runoff to the stormwater receiving channel. The plan shall include site grading and elevation information, typical stormwater detention/retention basin and discharge structure details, basin sizing calculations, and stormwater maintenance plan. Landowner recognizes the City may require such Stormwater Master Plan to be implemented in all or part as a condition of approval of development of the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION. 11. Waiver of Right-to-Protest Special Districts A. Landowner shall execute a Waiver of Right-to-Protest Creation of Special Improvement Districts or Special Districts for street and transportation improvements including design and engineering, paving and subsurface improvements, curb and gutter, sidewalk, stormwater drainage facilities for a) South 3rd Avenue from West Kagy Boulevard and West Graf Street. The Landowner agrees such SID or special districts will provide a mechanism for the fair and equitable assessment of construction and maintenance costs for such improvements. The 234 2221 SOUTH 3RD AVENUE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT 9 waiver is attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and is hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement. B. Landowner shall execute a Waiver of Right-to-Protest Creation of Special Improvement Districts or Special Districts for Intersection improvements including lighting, signalization / channelization, paving, curb/gutter, sidewalk, and storm drainage for a) South 3rd Ave and West Kagy Blvd, and b) South 3rd Ave and West Graf Street. The Landowner agrees such SID or special districts will provide a mechanism for the fair and equitable assessment of construction and maintenance costs for such improvements. The waiver is attached hereto as Exhibit “B” and is hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement. C. Landowner agrees that in the event an SID is not utilized for the completion of these improvements as described in subsections A and B above, the Landowner shall participate in an alternative financing method for the completion of said improvements on a fair share, proportionate basis as determined by the City on the basis of the square footage of property, taxable valuation of the property, traffic contribution from the development or a combination thereof. 12. Public Street and Utility Easements The Landowner understands and agrees that a public street and utility easement must be provided at the time Landowner returns the signed annexation agreement for (45) feet from the centerline of the existing ROW for South 3rd Avenue along South 3rd Avenue property frontage as depicted in the Bozeman Transportation Master Plan prior to the adoption of Resolution of Annexation. The Right-of-Way must be executed using the City’s standard language. 235 2221 SOUTH 3RD AVENUE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT 10 The Landowner, at its sole expense, has created such easements in a location and form agreeable to the City and the easements will be filed at the Gallatin County Clerk and Recorder’s Office. The Landowner further understands and agrees that additional public street and utility easements may be required for delivery of municipal services with future development and such easement shall be provided at the Landowner’s sole expense. 13. Street Improvements The Landowner understands and agrees that at the time of future development the portion of South 3rd Avenue and its related transportation infrastructure fronting the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION must be improved to a City standard. 14. Impact Fees Landowner acknowledges that annexation and development of their property will impact the City’s existing street, water and sewer infrastructure, and the City’s fire service. As approved by the City, the Landowner and its successors must pay: A) Fire impact fees equal to the amount per Chpt. 2, Art. 6. Div. 9 BMC, or as amended, at time of issuance of a building permit. B) Transportation impact fees equal to the amount per Chpt. 2, Art. 6. Div. 9 BMC, or as amended, at time of issuance of a building permit. C) Water impact fees as required by Chpt. 2, Art. 6. Div. 9 BMC, or as amended, at the time of connection to city water services. D) Sewer impact fees as required by Chpt. 2, Art. 6. Div. 9 BMC, or as amended, at the time of connection to city sewer services. The amount of impact fee the Landowner or its successors pay for connection to the city’s water and sewer services, if any, shall be calculated based on the provisions of the Bozeman Municipal Code, as amended, in effect at the time of application for a permit to connect. The amount of street or fire impact fees to be paid, if any, shall be calculated based on the provisions 236 2221 SOUTH 3RD AVENUE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT 11 of the Bozeman Municipal Code, as amended, in effect at the time an application for building permit is submitted. Landowner further understands and agrees that any improvements, either on-site or off- site, necessary to provide connection of the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION municipal services and which are wholly attributable to the property as determined exclusively by the city are considered “project related improvements” as defined in Chapter 2, Article 6, Division 9, Bozeman Municipal Code, as amended, and as such, are not eligible for impact fee credits. If Landowner defaults on this condition at the time such is to be performed, and should default not be remedied or corrected within thirty (30) days after written notice by City to the Landowner and Landowner/Developer of such default, City may at its option: A) Declare the amounts owing for impact fees immediately due and payable and City shall have the right and privilege to take legal action against Landowners for the collection of such sum, including the entry of any judgment. In addition, the City may, at its option, enforce payment of such amount by levying an assessment on the property. B) Elect any other remedy available to City under the laws of the State of Montana. 15. Charges and Assessments Landowner understands and agrees that after this Agreement is recorded the 2221 SOUTH 3rd ANNEXATION will be subject to City charges and assessments for arterial and collector streets, street maintenance, and tree maintenance on the same basis as all other properties in the City. 237 2221 SOUTH 3RD AVENUE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT 12 16.

BACKGROUND:Attached is a copy of the proposed resolution and change order number 1 for the above-referenced project. This change order covers three field orders approved during construction. First, the automatic transfer switch that controls power between the grid and the generator was changed from Owner Supplied to Contractor Supplied. Second, the domestic water supply line from the existing water storage tank was found in a different location than was indicated on the plans and was in conflict with a proposed manhole. Third, the domestic water service to the Riverside Country Club was found to be shallower than indicated on the plans. Additional details and cost implications associated with these changes are described in the attached letter from our engineering consultant, DOWL. City staff have reviewed these changes and associated costs and found them to be necessary and commensurate with the work involved. UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None ALTERNATIVES:As Suggested by the Commission FISCAL EFFECTS:This change order will increase the contract amount by $9,570.58 bringing the total construction cost from $1,782,351.00 to $1,791,921.58. It is anticipated with cost savings in other areas of the project, the total contract amount will remain approximately at the original contract amount at the conclusion of the project. The cost of this project is paid for by funding from a special improvement district approved by the Riverside community.

Box 1230 Bozeman, MT 59771 Subject: Riverside Lift Station and Force Main – Change Order 1; Recommendation for Approval Dear Mr. Gamradt: Please see the following change order for the Bozeman Riverside Lift Station and Force Main project. This change order is the result of three field orders. First, the automatic transfer switch that controls power between the grid and the generator was described in the bid documents as “provided by owner” but must be sourced by the contractor, at a cost of $3,018.75. Installation of the equipment is included in the construction documents. Second, during the installation of gravity sewer main to connect the existing wastewater system to the new sewer lift station the domestic water supply line from the existing water storage tank was found in a different location than shown in the record drawings and was in conflict with the proposed manhole and sewer main. Revision of the alignment and manhole locations to avoid both the potable water line and an unknown irrigation pipeline required additional piping and excavation work, at a cost of $5,596.32. Third, the domestic water service pipeline to the Riverside Country Club was found to be shallower than expected. This required the force main to cross the waterline at less than the required separation. Pursuant to a deviation request approved by MT DEQ, flowable fill material was placed between the water and force main pipes, at a cost of $955.51. The bid documents included a cost to lower the waterline if the water and force main were in conflict that could not otherwise be resolved with minor grade adjustments. This bid cost of $7,250 for this item will not be expended, as the water main will not need to be lowered. The increase in the contract amount for the three items on this change order is $9,570.58, a portion of which will be offset by deleting the noted bid item to lower the water main. This adjustment/deduction will be captured on the final reconciliation of quantities at the end of the project. Thus, the approval of this change order will add the noted additional costs to the contract total. We recommend approval of this change order for the amount of $9,570.58. Please let us know if you have any questions. Sincerely, DOWL Kevin R.

The manhole rim elevation for sta 1+37.88 will need to be modified to accommodate existing grade. The invert into the wet well will remain the same. Additional gravity sewer main paid on bid item unit price. To avoid conflict with the existing 8-inch watermain discovered in a different location than anticipated, shift manholes to the south per the attached drawings. Additional gravity sewer main paid on bid item unit price. Manhole 2 (original station 1+51) will be too tall and the barrel section will need shortened or replaced. No cost. Manhole 1 (original station 1+05) would be about 3” too high with the grade rings removed. Thus, the barrel section on this manhole may also need shortened or replaced. No cost. Existing Irrigation Line: The AC pipe can be cut and capped/plugged east of the proposed location of MH1. Waiting for confirmation from RCC if the main is charged by the irrigation system or not. Costs below. CK May Field Notes: 07/10/2025: Dig up sewer line. Found sewer line. After digging under sewer line for manhole install we found the water line within 18” of pipe running underneath the sewer line. Exposed lines to establish a plan. After deciding to move manhole to the south we continue to expose the sewer line to the south. After reaching the new manhole location we found an 8” AC irrigation pipe that conflicted with the new manhole location. Met with engineer to discuss options and make a plan. 07/11/2025: Dig around 8” ac pipe to confirm OD. 07/15/2025: Dig up AC irrigation pipe south east of new manhole location for abandonment. Backfill half of manhole excavation from original location. Pick up concrete block for thrust block and fittings and parts from hd Fowler for capping pipe. Break and drain irrigation AC piping in manhole excavation. Break and remove piping from bell in hole south east. Install macro adapting coupler and 2’ of c900 with an end cap. P.O.

BACKGROUND:MSU and ASMSU Student Leaders will be presenting information regarding an effort to improve MSU student engagement within City Government. This initiative, the Student Advisory Council, would create a non-voting seat designated to a MSU student on each Super City Advisory Board. These students, who will undergo a nomination and training process, will then be able to represent student interests in different aspects of city policy. Additionally, they will be able to collaborate on cross-cutting issues to facilitate the creation of official student opinions. Because these seats are non-voting, they can be flexible for student's unique needs while not interfering with the functioning of the city advisory board.

Recently, the Court recognized the position of court clerk should be expanded to play a larger role in the administration of the Court. The adjustments reflect this change.

These include: recognizing hours set by the court must be in compliance with state law (Section 1 of the proposed ordinance); amending the qualifications for a judge pro tempore to reflect the statutory requirements (Section 5 of the proposed ordinance); and ensuring a vacancy in the office of a municipal court judge is filled pursuant to state law (Section 6 of the proposed ordinance).
