Collectively this information is the record of the review. The analysis in this report is a summary of the completed review. Plan Review, Section 38.230.100, BMC In considering applications for plan approval under this title, the Director of Community Development shall consider the following: 1. Conformance with Article 1 - Consistency with the City’s adopted Growth Policy 38.100.040.D Meets Code? Growth Policy Land Use Community Commercial Mixed Use Yes Zoning NEHMU (Northeast Historic Mixed Use District) Yes Comments: Growth Policy - 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 proposal supports the goal of higher density and mixed-use development by the CCMU land use designation. It proposes to add commercial space and a mix of residential in multi-story buildings. The density is higher at roughly 45 dwelling units per acre. Zoning District - Northeast Historic Mixed Use: 1. The intent of the northeast historic mixed-use district is to provide recognition of an area that has developed with a blend of uses not commonly seen under typical zoning requirements. The unique qualities and nature of the area are not found elsewhere in the city and should be preserved as a place offering additional opportunities for creative integration of land uses. The intent of this area is to allow private and case-by-case determination of the most appropriate use of land in a broad range of both non-residential and residential uses. Standards for buffering between different land uses are deliberately not as high as standards elsewhere in the community as it is assumed that persons choosing to locate in this area are aware of the variety of possible adjacent land uses and have accepted such possibilities as both acceptable and desirable. It is expected that the lots within this district will continue to develop under a variety of uses which may increase or decrease in scope in any given portion of the district. 2. The clear intent of this district is to support a mix and variety of non-residential and residential uses. Nothing in division 38.300 of this article shall be interpreted to be discouraging or prejudicial to any listed use except as set forth as principal and special uses. The proposed use supports an integration of both non-residential and residential uses that fits into the area of the Northeast neighborhood. 2. Conformance with Article 1 - All other applicable laws, ordinances, and regulations (38.100.080) Condominium ownership NA Comments: A separate Condominium Review (CR) is required to create condominiums. 3. Conformance with Article 2, including the cessation of any current violations (38.200.160) Meets Code? Current Violations NA Comments: There are no current violations on the subject property 4.

Standards for Certificate of Appropriateness (38.340) Meets Code? Certificate of appropriateness standards Yes with code provision Secretary of the Interiors Standards NA NCOD Design Guidelines Yes Comments: The proposed project is located within the NCOD and is within the Bozeman Brewery Historic District. This means that the project must address the standards of 38.340.040 and the Bozeman Guidelines for Historic Preservation and the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District for new construction. The Lehrkind Brewery was located on the property but demolished in 2015 due to safety concerns from the Building Division. It has been vacant since. The Bozeman Brewery Historic District is composed of five historic buildings; a one-story building on the east side of Wallace, the Lehrkind mansion and three modest houses affiliated with the Lehrkind family south of Aspen Street. The guidelines for this historic district include recommending any new design reflect the district character such as the use of brick materials, simple rectangular forms, and other design elements found in the area. It also states that the mansion should be retained as the dominant residential building within the area. To accommodate a buffer between the development and historic mansion, the lower intensity uses are proposed on the south side, which include the two sets of rowhouses and a single-story bodega. The higher intensity uses are along the north and east side where higher intensity and industrial uses exist. The project uses a combination of materials and building forms found in the area that recognize the northeast neighborhood such as brick, flat roofs on the higher density buildings, pitched roof on the rowhouses, and simple rectangular forms. Another distinct character of the Brewery district is how the buildings address the street which they do along Wallace and Tamarack. To recognize the history and significance of the site and the former brewery, an installation must be places somewhere on the site. This may include, but is not limited to a sign, artwork, plaque, or other commemorative display and must be installed prior final routing sign off by planning.
