Collectively, this information is the record of the review. In establishing the record of review, the Director of Community Development and the Development The City of Bozeman adopted the Bozeman Community Plan (the Future Land Use Plan) including the Future Land Use Map on October 28th, 2025, by Resolution Number 2025-71. The Bozeman Community Plan was made available for public review and comment prior to adoption and identified and analyzed impacts of development. Notice was provided that the Bozeman Community Plan is the basis for implementing land use regulations as required in 76-25-106, MCA. Issue plans including but not limited to the Transportation Master Plan, the Parks, Recreation, and Active Transportation Plan, the Sewer Facility Plan, Water Facility Plan, Stormwater Facility Plan, and Fire Protection Master Plan were all considered and incorporated by reference in adoption of the Bozeman Community Plan. The Unified Development Code, contained in Chapter 38 of the Municipal Code, is the primary implementing regulation for the Bozeman Community Plan and was adopted on December 16, 2025 through Ordinance 2025-12/2151. The Bozeman Community Plan and supporting issue plans were utilized in consideration and adoption of the Unified Development Code. The City Commission found that the Unified Development Code was in substantial compliance with the Bozeman Community Plan. The Unified Development Code provides specific zoning and subdivision regulations as well as the zoning designation which determined the allowable criteria for review of the site plan for development of the subject property. During adoption of the Unified Development Code, issue plans and the Bozeman Community Plan were utilized to anticipate impacts of potential development. As such, city wide impacts resulting from the proposed development were previously analyzed and made available for public review and comment during the adoption of the land use plan including all issue plans, and adoption of zoning regulations, subdivision regulations, and all subsequent amendments to the identified documents. Zoning designations throughout the city were implemented to ensure that individual impacts to a given site from a proposed development will fit into the framework of the previously considered city wide impacts. Site Plan review ensures that site-specific impacts have been addressed with the materials submitted with this application and are available for public review. Any development which conforms with the standards of Montana Code Annotated and Bozeman Municipal Code has addressed all site-specific impacts. The following report reviews the subject application for compliance with the criteria and regulations adopted by the State of Montana and the City of Bozeman.

General Standards- Preserves natural terrain, drainage, topsoil, trees, and other vegetation to the maximum extent possible (38.410.010.B) PZ N/A Comments: The applicant states, ‘The site has no existing trees or shrubs. The site was apparently used as a stockpile area for surrounding development, dating as far back as when the Gallatin Park Project Report 350 Gallatin Park SP Application No. 25755 July 7, 2026 Page 18 of 24 Subdivision was constructed. The stockpiles have been partially removed over the years, but vegetation is intermittent and weeds are prevalent. Since the existing conditions of the site are not pristine, nor does the site contain any important vegetation, development of the site does not negatively affect the natural environment, but may improve it by removing a source of weed seeds.” The applicant is preserving the natural terrain, drainage, topsoil, trees, and other vegetation to the maximum extent possible. Community Focal Point (38.410.020)PZ N/A Comments: This project is a commercial development and thus not subject to standards for community focal points.

Public streets and sidewalks provide required access to the subject property and provide adequate pedestrian connectivity. Provisions for utilities including efficient public services and utilities 38.410.050-060 Yes Other utilities (electric, natural gas, communications) ENG Yes Comments: Utilities, easements, water, sewer, and stormwater have been reviewed by the Engineering Division, Water/Sewer Division, and Northwestern Energy for functionality and compliance with adopted standards. The necessary utility easements were provided as part of the platting process that created the lots. The applicant has proposed to release a public water and sewer easement that was dedicated as part of a previously planned project that did not go to construction. No water or sewer mains were installed in this easement and the City is in support of the release and reconveyance of the easement. Per Condition of Approval 4, the applicant must provide the original hard copy of the release and reconveyance prior to final site plan approval. Municipal infrastructure requirements (38.410.070)ENG Yes Comments: The existing water and sewer mains adjacent to the development are adequate to serve the proposed development. No new water and sewer mains are required. The applicant proposed a 218-foot-long water service which exceeds the maximum length of 150 feet as defined in this code section. The applicant provided a request for approval of the water service length with supporting calculations demonstrating the service could adequately serve the proposed development. The Engineering Division reviewed the request and presented it to the Director of Utilities. Upon review and consideration, the Director of Utilities approved the water service length.

The west side of the retention facility is partially within a City public Project Report 350 Gallatin Park SP Application No. 25755 July 7, 2026 Page 19 of 24 utility easement, while the remaining portion is outside the easement. The portion within the public utility easement will have 3:1 grass-lined side slopes, while the portion outside the easement will have 4:1 grass-lined side slopes. The applicant team provided the engineering division with a conflict mitigation plan that illustrates both existing and future pipe alignments, as well as maintenance activities that could occur within the easement. The City engineering division found the proposed design and associated side slopes of the facility appropriate to protect the facility and allow future access without affecting the stormwater facility. All other elements of the design were found to meet the standards of BMC 38410.080. Fire Protection Requirements (38.410.090)FIRE Yes Comments: The Fire Department reviewed the application during initial DRC review per the standards in this section, and no corrections were provided. Additional review will be conducted during the building permit process and inspections will be required prior to occupancy of the structure. Mail Delivery (38.410.100)PZ N/A Comments: No alterations to mail delivery facilities are required with this proposal. Water Adequacy (38.410.110)WTR Yes Comments: The project’s estimated annual water demand is offset by an existing water credit associated with the property, paid at the time of subdivision.
