Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Aimee Brunckhorst, Citizen Advisory Board Coordinator
Stacy Ulmen CMC, City Clerk SUBJECT: Re-appointments to the Downtown Business Improvement District Board
(BID)
MEETING DATE: November 26, 2012 MEETING TYPE: Action
RECOMMENDATION: Reappoint two members to the Downtown Business Improvement
District Board (BID).
BACKGROUND: Two terms on the BID expired June 30, 2012. Both members have applied
for another term. Chris Naumann recommends their reappointments.
Montana Code stipulates that BID Board members be owners of property within the district. In the past, several applicants were appointed to the board as "property owner
representatives" because their property title named a corporation as the owner rather than the
individual. For many years the City Commission has honored this precedent by appointing
property owner representatives to the BID Board.
The BID was originally created by Resolution No. 3361 and Ordinance No. 1517, per
MCA 7-12-1121, in May of 2000. In June of 2010, the BID was extended/recreated by
Resolution No. 4263 for an additional ten years.
The board shall be comprised of not less than five, nor more than seven, owners of property within the district. Members are appointed for staggered four-year terms.
The BID currently has two expired terms and two reapplying applicants.
Applicants seeking Reappointment: Mike Basile Dan Himsworth
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.
Attachment: Board Applications and recommendation letter
