Meeting Minutes
Scott made the motion to approve as presented the minutes from November, December
and January meetings. Kevin seconded the motion. All in favor.
Lighting Project update
Dustin reported March is now the project start date due to winter weather. Although poles
need to be purchased a March start should be just fine. Discussion.
Banners also on hold as wary of using sample pole for final measurements.
Overpass lights have been delivered. MDT had already put out for bid and Dick Andersen
got it - should start soon.
N7Rehab applications and presentations
Expected one from Keith Redfern but he did not get application to Susan for distribution
to board.
Zoning district, Clarion project status
Brian reported Cameron unable to finish/present tonight due to illness but does plan on
participating via web during March 7 board meeting. Cameron’s plans to return to
Bozeman to test with actual N7 properties his proposed menu approach, specific
recommendations, will prove if doing a good job with this zoning reconfiguration.
Applications for non-voting board position
Kevin has turned in his application to continue; Andrew will also reapply. Susan will ask
Aimee what is going on with non-voting position application(s).
Future staff needs
Scott brought up December conversation – do we ask Planning Office to staff or do we go
outside, advertise and hire someone akin to Chris at DBP. Kevin asked Steve, interim
planning director, for his thoughts. Steve will look into options within the Planning office,
bring a proposal for support staff to March meeting.

Discussion. Andrew wants to investigate, get new blood and ideas – he will ask around
before March meeting. Carl thinks board should have someone in place in 60 days – his
discussions with Naumann have been favorable.
Dustin noted NSURB bylaws different than DPB so different rules will apply, including
need to advertise as RFP as contract relationship best, not an employee situation. Scott
suggested writing for a 2-4 year contract. Susan will look for possible scope of work text
for job contract RFP.
Everyone to bring names to next meeting – Steve will research what we need to do to move
to next level of play.
FYI
None
