REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor & City Commission
FROM: Dave Skelton, Associate Planner
Chris Saunders, Interim Planning Director
Chris Kukulski, City Manager
SUBJECT: Brandner Annexation #A-10003
MEETING DATE: July 19, 2010
AGENDA MEETING ITEM: Action
RECOMMENDATION: The City Commission adopts the provided findings and approves the
annexation, with the recommended terms of annexation listed on Pages 2-3 of the Staff Report, and
directs staff to prepare an annexation agreement for signature by the parties.
BACKGROUND: Jeff Brandner of 1118 Bridger Drive proposes to annex 0.37+- acres into the City of
Bozeman. The purpose of the annexation request is to allow connection to municipal water and sanitary
sewer services and to obtain other essential public services (e.g. police and fire). The owner/applicant,
who currently live in the existing residence have indicated in meetings with staff, that upon annexation
and zoning approval, they intend to upgrade the existing single family dwelling on the property. Having
this home connected to municipal sewer and water is beneficial for the future protection of the
groundwater and the other existing wells in this area. The subject property is currently occupied by the
existing residence and an accessory structure. Trees and mature vegetation line property’s east and north
boundaries. Existing right-of-way for Bridger Drive/Highway 86 runs along the property’s north
boundary.
A concurrent zone map amendment application has also been submitted to establish an initial municipal
zoning designation of R-1 (Residential, Single Household Low Density District) and is included as a
subsequent agenda item. The R-1 zoning request has been recommended for approval by Staff and the
Zoning Commission as noted in those packet materials.
Annexations of this type (Part 46) are typically placed on the consent agenda for the City Commission.
This annexation was placed on the Action portion of the agenda to give the applicant the opportunity to
discuss his request for a partial waiver to the impact fees required with annexation of the as some of the
comments/concerns expressed at the Zoning Commission meeting for the R-1 zone map amendment are
actually items being addressed under the terms of annexation.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None determined at this time.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the annexation with the findings and terms as recommended
above by Staff.

2) Approve the annexation with revised findings and additional terms as
directed by the City Commission.
3) Deny the annexation request.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Annexing the property and establishing the new municipal zoning will enable the
applicant to upgrade the existing residence and connect to the City sewer and water adjacent to the
subject property. This would increase tax values and corresponding revenue from the property. The City
will accrue additional costs to service the property with municipal service.
