Community Meeting Recap
2025.9.15
Intrinsik Architecture Conference Room
Executive Summary
A community meeting was held on July 31st from 5:30-7:30 pm to discuss the Bozeman
Yards North Building. This meeting included a presentation by the design team & owner and
a Q&A session for various attendees with an interest in the project. The purpose of this
meeting was to discuss the vision, program and schedule for for the project, as well as
utilization of the new/current Affordable Housing “Type A” Incentives. This was the second
Community meeting held for the Bozeman Yards project, but the flrst meeting was about
the larger vision of the full project and was not speciflc about this building.
Notes from the meeting
• Height
o Height dominated much of the conversation.
o Some individuals in the room felt strongly that the Misco Mill should remain
the tallest building in the neighborhood, and noted that this building would
be a few feet taller.
o A few people expressed excitement about the addition to the neighborhood.
o The updated design—with a layered approach instead of the previous flve-
story version—was appreciated, but some still felt the building is too tall for
the north side.
• Noise
o A few individuals voiced concerns about noise from the train and how
residents would be affected living so close to it. At the same time, those
individuals also expressed how much they love living in the neighborhood.
• Environmental Concerns
o There were a few questions about how environmentally friendly the building
would be - speciflcally, whether it was being designed to meet LEED
standards.
• Demographics
o Some people expressed concern about the demographic of future residents,
particularly whether they would be full-time occupants.
o There were also concerns about the marketing materials and what level of
buyers that might be attracted to the neighborhood.
• Parking
o A few individuals raised concerns about where residents and visitors would
park.
• TIF District
o There was an explanation provided about the TIF district and how the TIF
works, and what public improvements would be made as part of the project.
Outcomes or Design suggestions
The major design concern raised during the meeting was the building's height and
speciflcally if there were ways to reduce the overall fioors of the building. While that
feedback is appreciated, the applicant believes they have already taken a thoughtful
approach to address this concern. In the initial meeting, it was noted that a flve-story
building could overpower the historic one-story Depot. That comment was taken seriously,
and the applicant revised the massing accordingly. Instead of a single flve-story volume
spanning the entire site, the design now features two primary volumes—one shorter
section located closest to the Depot, and a taller portion situated further back. It’s also
worth noting that the area requesting additional height represents a relatively small portion
of the overall site. Additionally, the entire building has been stepped back 10 feet from the
northern property line. Overall, the applicant feels they have struck a careful balance
between respecting the Depot and meeting the project’s height needs.
