Ms. Finke noted that one condition, #3, in her Staff report (complete report on file in the Planning Office) is not standard. Condition #3 states - "A Stormwater Drainage Plan/Treatment Plan and Maintenance Plan for a system designed to remove solids, silt, oils, grease and other pollutants from the run-off from the private and/or public streets must be provided to and approved by the City Engineer. The plan must demonstrate adequate site drainage to an acceptable discharge device (i.e., street gutter, drainage swale, basin) stormwater detention/retention basin details (including basin sizing), and a stormwater maintenance plan. ..." The other departments had no comments. Mr. Kack noted that he is satisfied with the conditions. Discussion ensued on Ms. Finke's conditions.

MEMBERS PRESENT: Karen Finke, Neil Poulsen, Larry Woodward, Phill Forbes, Dave Skelton, Roger Sicz, Chuck Winn STAFF PRESENT: Debbie Arkell, Jody Olsen, Christopher Williams, Dean Patterson, Chris Saunders, Carol Schott VISITORS PRESENT: Jeff Kack, Wendy Cowdrey, Tracy Cowdrey, Joan Rudberg, Steven Gray, Kate Maxfield, Pete Stein, Holly Brown, Michael Delaney, Cecilia Abend A. FINAL WEEK REVIEW 2. On the Rise MiSP/COA Z-9633 - (Olsen) 212 S. Tracy - A Minor Site Plan with a Certificate of Appropriateness Application for a wood-fired bakery. Planner Jody Olsen reviewed the project. She noted that the Planning Office has received two letters in opposition, basically for the increase in traffic that will be created. She reviewed the DRB's conditions and stated Staff's conditions. (Text of Staff's conditions on file at the Planning Office.) Mr. Poulsen noted that the State has adopted new codes for historic buildings. The new code allows for buildings such as this to be used as it is without modification. Ms. Finke noted that the stormwater drainage is her biggest concern. Mr. Woodward noted that (1) "The owner shall have a plumber size the existing water line to determine if size is large enough for new use. If found to be large enough according to Plumbing code, it may be reused. (2) "A full way valve and a double check valve assembly will be required to be installed immediately following the City Water meter. Contact City of Bozeman Water Foreman Ray Hedglin for list of approved backflow devices." He also noted that impact fees would be charged on any upgrade. Mr. Sicz noted he had visited the site several times and traffic circulation is horrible. He continued that the alley has barely 8' to 10' of clearance and is unacceptable for this kind of use. He suggested an access from the parking lot. He also noted that the removal of the hedge would widen the alley. He suggested another curb cut into the parking lot from S. Tracy, then exit could be made through the parking lot. Ms. Kate Maxfield and Mr. Steve Gray joined DRC. Mr. Sicz explained his concerns. He continued that the additional curb cut would allow another access for the parking lot. Mr. Gray noted that they had talked to the parking lot owners and they want to resolve the situation to the best of both parties. Discussion ensued of the suggested solution. Chairperson Skelton noted that customers may not use the access. Mr. Forbes noted that the 2 access to the alley would be closed except for access to the garage. Chairperson Skelton noted that could work. Discussion ensued on parking spaces won or lost. Mr. Sicz noted that the applicants would be responsible for the upgrade of the alley. Discussion ensued on alley repair. After reviewing his concerns (complete text of concerns on file in Planning Office), Mr. Sicz asked Mr. Forbes and Ms. Finke to comment. Mr. Forbes noted that he is willing to grant the deviation for the width of 12' driveway. He concurred with Mr. Sicz about the egress into the parking lot. Chairperson Skelton asked Ms. Olsen if the applicants meet parking requirements. Ms. Olsen noted that parking is adequate. Chairperson Skelton asked how many parking spaces would be gained if the alley access were closed. Ms. Olsen explained. Discussion ensued on parking. Ms. Maxfield asked why parking in the alley for other businesses in the area should penalize them. Mr. Sicz and Chairperson Skelton discussed why the alley is as it is. Discussion ensued on parking and if the parking lot will be affected. Mr. Sicz inquired if the DRC could see this project one more week. Chairperson Skelton noted that a decision needs to be made today with the curb cut either a condition or a recommendation. Mr. Poulsen noted that the Building Department is required to have a listing of the elements that will be used in the ovens. This will be a concern later in the process. Chairperson Skelton noted that DRC is to determine if Mr. Sicz's condition #2 should be a recommendation or a condition. Mr. Sicz noted that he is hesitant to make it a condition when the parking lot owner hasn't been totally involved. Mr. Forbes suggested that the egress be provided somewhere other than the alley. Mr. Sicz agreed to this change in his condition #2. Mr. Sicz moved, Mr. Forbes seconded, that DRC conditionally approve the site plan, including the modification of Mr. Sicz's condition #2. Motion carried unanimously by voice vote. 3 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TUESDAY, JUNE 189 1996 CITY COMMISSION ROOM, CITY HALL, 411 EAST MAIN 10:00 A.M.

FINAL WEEK REVIEW 3. Kountz Trailer Park CUP Z-9648 - (Williams) 8628 Huffine Lane - A Conditional Use Permit Application to allow expansion of the trailer park. Planner Christopher Williams reviewed the project. Holly Brown joined the DRC. Planner Williams reviewed his conditions. (Conditions on file in the Planning Office) Ms. Finke reviewed her conditions which referenced the Agreement for Extension of Sewer Service and Annexation of Kountz Mobile Home Park, dated August 7, 1995, between the City of Bozeman and the Owner of Mountain Mobile Home Estates, aka, Kountz Mobile Home Park. (Complete text of her report on file in the Planning Office.) She noted particular concern with Conditions #2, #3, #9, #12, and #13 from the prior agreement. Ms. Brown noted that #13 could be completed at the end of construction, according to Mr. Brawner. She noted also that the full hook-up won't be complete until next summer. Mr. Forbes noted that there would have to be a financial guarantee to that effect. Mr. Forbes inquired of Mr. Woodward if there will be any problem with the bottleneck being left until last to be corrected. Discussion ensued on when the hook-up will be achieved. Mr. Woodward noted that there is an open-ended use of City sewer by a County business as the applicant has yet to apply for annexation. Chairperson Skelton stated that DRC needs to make a formal recommendation to Planning Board and City Commission. Mr. Sicz moved, Ms. Finke seconded, to recommend conditional approval to the Planning Board and the City Commission. Motion carried unanimously by voice vote. 4 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TUESDAY, JUNE 18, 1996 CITY COMMISSION ROOM, CITY HALL, 411 EAST MAIN 10:00 A.M.

FINAL WEEK REVIEW 4. Rodeway Inn MaSP/COA Z-9651 - (Patterson) 2005 Wheat Drive - A Major Site Plan with a Certificate of Appropriateness Application to construct a 50 unit motel and covered pool with lounge. Planner Dean Patterson reviewed the project. Wendy and Tracy Cowdrey joined DRC. Planner Patterson reviewed his conditions. Condition #1 - the parking lot light standards less than 20' high and deflect light downward. #2 - the trash enclosure to be accessible by the collection trucks. #3 - Site triangles shown on the site plan. #4 - certification of the number of employees to ensure adequate parking. Mr. Cowdrey inquired how to figure the number of employees, he had figured 5 spaces for the employees. #5 - the retaining walls shown and noted on the site plan. #6 - adequate landscaping. #8 - addresses the certification of the design professionals. (The complete text of the Staff report is on file at the Planning Office.) Staff recommends conditional approval of the project. Mr. Poulsen concurred with condition #8. Ms. Finke discussed the stormdrain. Mr. Woodward noted that the water servoce cannot be installed through the garage or under the parking garage or any substructure. The rest of his conditions are boilerplate. (Complete text of Mr. Woodward's report on file at the Planning Office.) Mr. Sicz noted the following conditions: (1) A stormwater drainage plan for the purposed site shall be approved by the Engineering Office prior to final site plan approval. (2) The Street Department believes that this development should trigger the paving of Mandeville Lane. ... the applicants shall sign a waiver of right to protest future street improvements & signalization to Mandeville Lane. (3) It is the department's recommendation that the applicants closely consider their garbage collection needs so that they may chose a garbage hauler whom will be able to serve the underground dumpster enclosure area. (Complete report on file at the Planning Office.) Mr. Cowdrey inquired as to what is happening with the paving of Mandeville Lane. Chairperson Skelton noted that the paving is moving forward through the other property owners. Mr. Cowdrey noted that he doesn't mind paying his fair share, however, he doesn't want to pay for the whole paving project. 5 Mr. Forbes noted that the Transportation Plan identifies changes to be made to Wheat Drive, therefore, it seems appropriate that Mandeville Lane be paved before occupancy. Chairperson Skelton asked if it could be done with a financial guarantee, Mr. Forbes noted that it could. Mr. Cowdrey inquired as to who was paying for the paving. Chairperson Skelton noted that Sleep Inn, Ramada Inn, and Thompson Properties are paying, however, they probably wouldn't mind another company paying a share. Planner Patterson noted that DRC needs to discuss how to condition the paving for Cowdreys. Discussion ensued on how it will work to get paving done and paid for by all the property owners affected. Planner Patterson noted that since an improvements agreement and a financial guarantee exist for the previously mentioned businesses, DRC should not require the paving of Mandeville Lane before occupancy. The Committee agreed that it should not require it. Mr. Woodward asked if the garage would be heated. Mr. Cowdrey stated that it would. Mr. Woodward suggested installing service lines in a more accessible place. He and Mr. Cowdrey discussed installing a mechanical room for the service lines. Chairperson Skelton called for a formal recommendation. Ms. Finke noted that in her Staff report, item #4 is pertinent - "The Developer shall be responsible for the payback of SID 595 and 597 Payback Area fees. The complete district(s) payoff must be completed as a condition of plat approval." She continued that conditions #7, #8, #9, and #10 dealing with stormwater and water and sewer also require the attentionof the applicant. (Complete text of Ms. Finke's Staff report on file at the Planning Office.) Planner Patterson moved to recommend approval to the Planning Board, as per the conditions in memos from DRC. Mr. Forbes seconded. Motion carried unanimously by voice vote. 6 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TUESDAY, JUNE 18, 1996 CITY COMMISSION ROOM, CITY HALL, 411 EAST MAIN 10:00 A.M.

SECOND WEEK REVIEW 1. Bozeman Athletic Club West Annexation A-9603 - (Saunders) 8601 Huffine Lane - An Application for Annexation of 135+ acres. (First of 3 weeks) Planner Chris Saunders presented the project. Michael Delaney and Cecilia Abend joined DRC. Chairperson Skelton asked for suggestions. Discussion ensued on cash-in-lieu. DRC decided there was no need at this time. Chairperson Skelton noted that typically the cash-in-lieu is in conjunction with subdivision review, issuing of a building permit, or occupancy. Mr. Forbes suggested a solution. Planner Saunders noted that his two questions are with water and sewer availability and capacity. Mr. Poulsen noted that the applicants are to be sure to use the 1994 Building Code, not the 1991 as several requirements have changed. Mr. Woodward asked if there was an annexation checklist completed with this application as he didn't have one in his packet. Planner Saunders noted that he would check. 7 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TUESDAY, DUNE 18, 1996 CITY COMMISSION ROOM, CITY HALL, 411 EAST MAIN 10:00 A.M.

Planner Dean Patterson present the project. He reviewed a condition from the 1991 approval by the City Commission that when and if the third bay was to be used, the applicant would have to go through a minor site plan. He reviewed the history of the previously approved application. Planner Patterson noted that the paving of the alley is required, however it appears to be paved covered with gravel. He requested that the Street Department check on the paving, Mr. Sicz agreed to chedk it. Chairperson Skelton explained the reasons for the paving condition in 1991 - there were several deviations and a variance granted for this project. Chairperson Skelton recommended that a condition be placed on the waiting room expansion - that it only be used for a waiting room. Also, he noted that the awning was installed without a permit. Mr. Paysek asked if there are oil/water separators installed on-site. Chairperson Skelton recommended that he check with the applicant. 8 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TUESDAY, DUNE 18, 1996 CITY COMMISSION ROOM, CITY HALL, 411 EAST MAIN 10:00 A.M.

Planner Chris Saunders presented the project. He noted that since this is a PUD, no sidewalks are required. He also noted that parking is adequate. Mr. Poulsen noted that the applicant had prepared the site plan using the 1991 Code, so will have to rework it. Discussion ensued on sprinklering, how to make the structure qualify as a 2-story building, existing parking lots, and the flammability of the storage area. 9 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TUESDAY, RUNE 18, 1996 CITY COMMISSION ROOM, CITY HALL, 411 EAST MAIN 10:00 A.M.
