ZONING DESIGNATION & LAND USES The subject property is zoned B-2 (Community Business District). The intent of the B-2 (Community Business District) is to provide for a broad range of mutually supportive retail and service functions located in clustered areas bordered on one or more sides by limited access arterial streets. The following land uses and zoning are adjacent to the subject property: North: B-2 (Community Business District) – I-90. East: B-2 (Community Business District).) – Oak Street Place PUD and Kenyon Noble PUD. South: R-O (Residential Office District) – office buildings. West: B-2 (Community Business District) –– Bridger Peaks Village PUD and Lowes PUD. ADOPTED GROWTH POLICY DESIGNATION The property is currently designated as “Regional Commercial and Services” in the Bozeman 2020 Community Plan. This classification provides areas for retail, education, health services, public administration and tourism for a multi-county region. These facilities should be located in proximity to significant transportation routes. It is appropriate that design guidelines be established to ensure compatibility with the remainder of the community. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT INTENT AND REVIEW CRITERIA The intent of Section 18.54 “Planned Unit Development” is to promote maximum flexibility and innovation in the development of land and the design of development projects within the city. The applicant is proposing many relaxations from the city’s standards through the Planned Unit Development process and must therefore demonstrate a plan that will produce an environment, landscape quality and character superior to that produced under the existing standards. #Z-06230 PT Land CUP / PUD DRB Staff Report 4 DESIGN OBJECTIVES PLAN CRITERIA 1.
