Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Presented by: John Van Delinder, Street Superintendent
Approved by: Debbie Arkell, Public Services Director
Compiled by: Aimee Kissel, Deputy City Clerk
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 1795, amending Chapter 2.78 of the Bozeman Municipal Code
providing for membership changes and confirming additional duties and responsibilities for the Bozeman Area Bicycle Advisory Board.
MEETING DATE: December 13, 2010
MEETING TYPE: Consent
RECOMMENDATION: Finally adopt Ordinance No. 1795, providing that Chapter 2.78 of the Bozeman Municipal Code be amended providing for membership changes and confirming additional duties
and responsibilities for the Bozeman Area Bicycle Advisory Board.
BACKGROUND: The Bozeman Area Bicycle Advisory Board has identified the need for members to represent the interests
of the Montana State University student body, the Bozeman High School student body, and the residents of Gallatin County to more fully address matters relating to bicycling in the greater
Bozeman area. The Board has requested that these positions be added to their membership by the City Commission. This request requires changes in Chapter 2.78 (Ordinance No. 1594) of
the Bozeman Municipal Code which describes the Bozeman Area Bicycle Advisory Board. Therefore, Ordinance No. 1594 has been revised with attached draft Ordinance 1795. While making
these changes, staff and board members felt it prudent to also update this Chapter to reflect changes in the board’s duties and responsibilities arising from Resolution No. 4246, approved
in March, 2010. Changes between the original Ordinance 1594 and the newly drafted Ordinance 1795 are highlighted in yellow. The Commission provisionally adopted Ordinance 1795 on November
29, 2010.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Fiscal affects would be minimal and include the costs associated with the management of several additional board members by the Citizen Advisory Board Coordinator.
ALTERN
ATIVES: 1) Finally adopt Ordinance No. 1795 with changes recommended by the Commission.
2) Deny the request for amendments to Chapter 2.78 BMC.
Attachments: Draft Ordinance No.
1795, Resolution No. 4246, and Ordinance No. 1594
