Stiff Professional Building 20 East Olive Street P.O. Box 1230 Bozeman, Montana 59771-1230 phone 406-582-2260 fax 406-582-2263 planning@bozeman.net www.bozeman.net March 3, 2006 Bozeman Deaconess Health Services 915 Highland Blvd Bozeman, MT 59715 Attn: Cheryl Ridgely RE: BDHS Subarea Plan Growth Policy Amendment #P-05075 Dear Ms. Ridgely: On Monday, February 27, 2006 the City Commission voted 4 to 0 to direct staff to prepare a resolution amending the growth policy in response to the above-referenced application. As approved, this application will amend the Bozeman 2020 Community Plan by establishing a subarea plan for the subject property which is described as described as Tract 1, less Certificate of Survey No. M-348, Certificate of Survey No. 2047; Tract 2, Certificate of Survey No. 2047; and Tract 3, Certificate of Survey No. 2047. The Commission voted to adopt Alternative #2 – Medium Density Alternative. The preliminary approval is based on fulfillment of the following City Commission conditions, staff advisory comments and contingencies: City Commission Conditions 1. The development guidelines be revised to address more protection of setbacks and ridgelines in Burke Park. 2. Add some low-density residential buffering in the Highland Neighborhoods adjacent to the New Hyalite View Subdivision. 3. That there will be no street connectivity to the New Hyalite Subdivision. 4. Make protection of the wetlands mandatory by striking the phrase, “where feasible” from page 2- 6 5. Change the “may” to a “shall” on page 2-11 to mandate the wildlife overpass. Staff Advisory Comments 1. Section 2.3.1.2 indicates that the houses Maple Drive (Dr. not St.) are utilizing wells for domestic service. This is not the case; all houses are currently connected to the municipal water system. 2. Section 2.3.5 indicates that the exiting power line or a portion of it, that crosses the property will be relocated, but it will remain above ground. Section 18.42.050 of the UDO states that utilities shall be placed underground wherever technically and economically feasible. The option of the underground installation should be pursued here. 3. Alternative #2 – Medium Density’s target density of 8.5 units per acre complies with the UDO’s density of requirement of at least 6 units per acre. Chapter 4 shall be revised to state that the Page 2 UDO requirements for at least 6 units per acre and for the provision of restricted size lots (RSLs) will need to be met by each subdivision with a residential component. 4. Section 1.2 shall note that should a conflict arise between the Subarea Plan and the Bozeman 2020 Community Plan that the 2020 Plan controls. 5. Figure 2-5 shall be revised to show the correct extent of the existing B-2 zoning. This figure shall also be revised to show adjacent Gallatin County zoning designations. Section 2.1.2 shall be revised to include a discussion of adjacent Gallatin County zoning districts. 6. In Section 4.1.1, the Estimated Commercial Space figure for All Highland Village uses does not seem to add up correctly. Revise this section if needed. 7. Section 2.3.4 shall be revised to address community transit. Specifically, if and when the community has a transit system, how would transit stops/facilities be accommodated. The Preferred Alternative map shall also be amended as needed to reflect transit considerations. 8. The applicant shall work with Planning Staff to make other minor grammatical, spelling, typographical or terminology revisions as needed. Example: Use of Single-Household instead of Single-Family. 9. BDHS should dedicate up to five buildable acres, but no fewer than three acres, to the City for a public works facility/sub-facility or a possible a joint fire and public works facility. The Preferred Alternative map shall be amended as needed. 10. The applicant should provide a fire station site of at least two acres. This fire station site could be co-located with the public works facility site described in item 9 above. The fire station site should be shown on the Preferred Alternative map in a location more conducive to servicing the subject property, as well as the community as a whole, than the site shown in the northwest corner of the intersection of Bozeman Trail Rd and Kagy Blvd on the subarea plan. Standard Growth Policy Amendment Contingencies 1. The applicant shall submit, within forty-five (45) days of approval by the City Commission, revised subarea plans to the Department of Planning & Community Development containing an accurate description of the property for which the growth policy designation is being amended. The exhibit(s) must be acceptable to the Department of Planning & Community Development. 2. The applicant shall submit 4 bound copies of the subarea plan entitled “Bozeman Deaconess Health Services Subarea Plan” and a digital copy of the plan for formal adoption by the City. 3. The resolution for the growth policy amendment shall not be drafted until the applicant provides an exhibit of the area to be re-designated, which will be utilized in the preparation of the resolution to officially amend the Future Land Use Map of the Bozeman 2020 Community Plan. Once all conditions, advisory comments and contingencies have been addressed, staff will draft a resolution for review by Legal Department staff who will then forward the growth policy amendment resolution to the City Commission for final adoption. The growth policy amendment will be in effect immediately once the City Commission votes to adopt the resolution. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.
