Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Chris Saunders, Interim Planning Director
Chris Kukulski, City Manager
SUBJECT: January 21st Policy Meeting - Liquor/Gaming Licenses – Discussion with
the Montana Department of Revenue, Liquor Licensing Division
MEETING DATE: Thursday, January 21, 2010 (12-1:30 p.m.) Representatives from the Montana Department of Revenue, Liquor Licensing Division, have
accepted the City’s invitation to attend the January 21st City Commission noon policy meeting to
discuss liquor/gaming licenses. At the request of the Department of Revenue, staff previously
forwarded them the following questions as a basis for the discussion:
• Please provide the City with a quick overview of the different types of liquor and/or gaming
licenses that are available within (or can be transferred into) the City of Bozeman and are there
any regulatory nuances the City should be aware of?
• Does the State have any suggestions for improving how we are responding or processing the
liquor license applications that are forwarded to us as well as how we are forwarding the City
approved Conditional Use Permits for liquor licenses?
• What is the geographical extent of the Bozeman permitting area, and how has it changed over
the past decade?
• How are license quotas set for a particular jurisdiction?
• How many licenses (of each type) are currently allocated for the Bozeman area?
• Does a “Cabaret” or “Beer and Wine Only” license automatically entitle someone to have
gaming machines?
The primary focus will be on liquor licenses, as the State has a whole separate gaming division, (and we only have an hour and a half), however, there are certain gaming provisions that are tied
to the various liquor licenses which they will be able to discuss.
In addition, the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Manager, (Jon Henderson), has put
together a series of maps analyzing the spatial relationship between gaming and various regulations including zoning, land use and other means. We will have these maps available on
the big screen (live GIS) to present and assist/augment the discussion as appropriate. Attached
are a hardcopy of the maps and a brief explanation of their purpose and data origin.

Gaming Maps Summary
In the Spring of 2009, the City Commission directed staff to prepare some changes to the City’s ordinances
relating to casinos. On June 22, 2009, the Commission decided to investigate the matter further before the
adoption of any ordinances. Staff has used the time since June to collect additional information from the State
on locations of alcohol licenses within Bozeman and to perform some analysis on how they are geographically
distributed.
The City’s present casino regulations were established in March 1997 by Ordinance 1439. The ordinance
defined a ‘casino’ and established restrictions on their location. Businesses which had gambling on-site prior to
the adoption were allowed to maintain their operations. If they did not meet the new standard they became legal,
non-conforming in status. Businesses which have gaming but which do not meet the definition of a casino are
not subject to the location restrictions and have located in many parts of the community.
The ordinance definition for a ‘casino’ is in Section 18.80.470, BMC and reads as follows:
“A. An establishment whose primary use or activity is gambling, either in the form of gambling
machines (video poker, keno, etc.), card games or other licensed gambling activity. A
casino will normally have beverage and restaurant facilities as accessory uses. In all instances, an establishment will be considered a casino for the purpose of these regulations if any of the following characteristics apply:
1. The establishment is referenced as a casino by signage, advertisement or by name;
2. More than one card table is on the premises; and/or
3. Fifteen or more gambling machines are on the premises.
B. An applicant for a casino establishment must obtain a Montana state license to sell alcoholic
beverages for consumption on the premises.”
The City’s location restrictions for a new casino are:
1. location within the M-1 or M-2 zones,
2. a zone map amendment for a casino overlay district, 3. location must be outside of an entryway corridor (other than the I-90 corridor) as designated on the zoning map, and
4. a casino must be separated by 600 feet from schools, churches, residences, public parks or other casinos.
The following series of maps have been prepared to show how different options for future changes might play
out on the ground. A table (Model Run Chart) showing the components of the various scenarios is provided below. No action by the Commission is expected at this time based on this information. This information is provided to enable the Commission to better visualize how different kinds of changes might affect allowable
locations. The data shown on the maps will be available ‘live’ at the Commission’s policy meeting and Jon
Henderson can help answer questions on data or the process to create the maps.
The choice of whether or not to restrict the location of casinos and how they are defined are legislative acts and at the discretion of the Commission. Staff will undertake changes to the regulations as directed to do so by the City Commission.

Prepared January 15, 2010
Process:
This analysis involved several steps studying the spatial relationship between gaming and various regulations
including zoning, land use and other means. Each model run consists of a base zoning combination which is
“clipped” (or, reshaped) through a series of processes using GIS data such as entryway corridors and residential separation buffers. See the table and lists above to reference the individual model specifics and data used.
Results are best seen on the attached exhibits, showing initial and final areas (including acreages).
*Also, note all acreages exclude rights-of-way (based on land use inventory)
Gaming Information Used:
• Montana Department of Revenue Liquor Control Division List of “Bozeman/Belgrade Quota Area On-Premises Consumption Licenses”, dated 8/5/2009
o This list was broken down by the following categories: ”All-Alcoholic Beverages”, “Beer &
Wine”, “Beer & Wine with Catering”, “Beer & Wine with no Gaming”, Restaurant Beer &
Wine”. Only the first two categories were used in this analysis to establish existing gaming centers (assuming most gaming took place within these two types).
• City of Bozeman HTE Liquor & Gaming License Data, dated 12/31/2009
o This list is mostly used to validate the above resource, as it contains additional points for all
areas of purchase (such as gas stations and gaming vendors), therefore this data is shown only
for reference and was not used in any analysis.
GIS Data Sets Used:
• Roads
• Parcels
• Land Use (2008)
• Zoning
• Community Plan Land Use
• Entryway Corridors
