FROM: Aimee Kissel, Deputy City Clerk / Advisory Board
Coordinator
Stacy Ulmen CMC, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Appointments to the Zoning Commission
MEETING DATE: June 4, 2012
MEETING TYPE: Action
RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to appoint Randy Wall and Trever McSpadden to
the Zoning Commission.
BACKGROUND: There are two ongoing vacancies on the Zoning Commission and
two new applicants who are currently members of the City Planning Board. Establishing a
consistent quorum has been difficult and appointing a full membership is important to the timely
consideration of applications.
The Zoning Commission was re-created under Ordinance No. 1500, to establish procedures for
the administration of the municipal zoning ordinance within the City limits. Resolution No.
3312 then established the membership of the Zoning Commission.
According to Resolution No. 3312:
The Zoning Commission shall consist of five members appointed by the City Commission.
Members of the board shall serve two-year staggered terms. Persons of legal age may be
appointed to the board. All members must be residents of the City of Bozeman.
This Commission has two ongoing vacancies and two new applicants.
Applicants seeking appointment:
Randy Wall
Trever McSpadden
