RECOMMENDATION: That the City Commission approve the Mayor’s signature on Bozeman’s Certified Local Government Grant Contract for 2013-2014.
BACKGROUND: This is a consent item for approval of the Mayor’s signature on the Bozeman

well as gives financial resources to preservation outreach and education events like seminars, walking tours, survey updates and the annual “Excellence in Historic Preservation Awards”.
As an agreement of the contract, historic preservation planning staff submits a report every six months to
the SHPO, detailing activities the Historic Preservation Board has sponsored and the funds used for those
activities. FISCAL EFFECTS: The Department of Planning, which administers the Bozeman Historic
Preservation Officer, is not aware of any unresolved issues for the proposed development at this time.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. CONTACT: Please feel free to email Courtney Kramer at ckramer@bozeman.net if you have any
questions.
