Discussion of the issue can be found in Section 6 of this report. Staff is not supportive of the requested intersection level of service variance request. Discussion of the issue can be found in Section 6 of this report. Project Summary The property owner and Applicant Rosa Construction, Inc., 209 Black Bull Trail, Bozeman, MT 597188, represented by C & H Engineering and Surveying, Inc., 1091 Stoneridge Drive, Bozeman MT 59718 submitted an application to subdivide 21.38 acres into 22 single-household residential lots, five (5) multi-family residential lots, two (2) Open Space lots, one (1) Park, and with the remaining area as street right of ways. The Traditions Subdivision (aka Rosa Subdivision), Phase 1-3 was reviewed and approved in November of 2004 (P04041). Traditions park plan was designed in conjunction with the neighboring property to the east, Flanders Creek subdivision to meet the needs of both developments. The Baxter Ditch (stream/ditch) bisects the subject property starting in the southeast corner of the property, adjacent to Flanders Creek Subdivision, to the northwest corner of the property, adjacent to Laurel Glen Subdivision. Dennis Balian, the owner of Flanders Creek Subdivision and John Rosa coordinated the development of their properties through street layout,park placement and trail design. Flanders Creek received final plat approval only Phase 1 of Traditions was completed. A one- year extension was granted on October 15, 2007 extending the preliminary plat approval to P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 3 of 43 November 1, 2008. Traditions Phase 1 was platted in February 2007. Traditions Phase 2 & 3 preliminary plat approval expired. Traditions Phase 2&3 was re-submitted in accordance with the original approval in 2004. However, a number of current codes and requirements were not met by the previous design requiring modifications. Thos e modifications have been made and are shown on the preliminary plat being considered. Specifically, the park plan, based on comments from Planning and the Recreation and Parks Advisory Board (RPAB), was revised to meet current stands for size, configuration, amenities, and neighborhood center requirements. Two variances are requested by the Applicant. The current design for Block 1 of Traditions subdivision is the same as the original which exceeds current standards for block length; Section 38.23.040, BMC Block Length to allow block length to exceed 400 feet. The original application secured a variance from block length to allow this design. The same variance is requested with this application. In addition, due to continued development in the area the intersection of Durston and Cottonwood Roads function at less than level C at time of final plat for some phases of the subdivision. A variance from Section 38.24.060.B.4, BMC Street Improvement Standards to allow intersection level of service at Durston and Cottonwood Roads to function at less than level C at time of final plat for some phases of the subdivision is requested. Alternatives 1. Approve the application with the recommended conditions; 2. Approve the application with modifications to the recommended conditions; 3. Deny the application based on the Commission's findings of non-compliance with the applicable criteria contained within the staff report; or 4. Open and continue the public hearing on the application, with specific direction to staff or the applicant to supply additional information or to address specific items. January 6, 2015 Planning Board Meeting Supplement The Planning Board held a public hearing on this preliminary plat on January 6, 2015, No public comment was heard on the proposed subdivision. The following discussion is a brief synopsis of the Board's discussion: A motion approve the intersection level of service variance request was made and seconded. ■ A motion to amend the main motion was made to modify Condition No. 33 and seconded. The revised condition language stated, "The standard level of service at the intersection of Cottonwood and Durston shall be mitigated or financially guaranteed to a proportionate share of their impact per code prior to final plat approval prior to final plat approval and the mitigation completed prior to issuance of a building permit unless a variance is granted by the City Commission." The amended motion passed 7:1. P-14042,Staff Reportfor Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 4 of 43 ■ The Board requested that the condition of approval include a complete list of alternative methods to meet the requirements of deficiencies of the intersection. ■ The Board commented that because the Traditions subdivision was the last one in they are bearing the brunt of the intersection improvements. ■ In addition the Board noted that the City is aware of the constraints with this intersection and therefore, ought to be more proactive in finding solutions. ■ In conclusion the Planning Board voted 3:5 to approve the variance with the amended Condition No. 33. The motion failed. A motion approve the block length variance request was made and seconded. ■ The Board examined the context of the subdivision and noted the adjacent property to the east, Flanders Creek, had similar block configurations to what Traditions is proposing. ■ All surrounding streets include sidewalks and providing an additional pedestrian connection through bock 1 would not measurably increase the distance traveled to get to the park and open space. ■ In conclusion the Planning Board voted 7:1 to approve the variance. The motion passed. A motion to approve the overall subdivision was made and seconded. In conclusion the Planning Board voted (7:1) to recommend the City Commission approve the Traditions Phase 2 & 3 subdivision and recommended approval of ht requested block length variance request subject to conditions, as amended, and code provisions outlined in the staff report.

SECTION 4 - CODE REQUIREMENTS REQUIRING PLAT CORRECTIONS Actions by the Commission to approve or disapprove requested variances may resolve some of the identified required corrections. A revised plat may be required to reflect those actions and changes to these requirements prior to final action on the subdivision. a. Pursuant to Section 38.23.040.13, BMC, Phase 2, Block 1 shall be no more than 400 feet in length, unless a variance is granted. If the Commission does not grant a variance from block length a minimum 25 foot pedestrian access shall be provided and aligned with the 6 foot trail in Park 1 to the east and across Rosa Way and extend through to Twin Lakes Avenue. If the Commission approves the variance from maximum block length then the plat as presented is acceptable. P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 21 of 43 SECTION 5 -RECOMMENDATIONAND FUTURE ACTIONS Project Name: Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision preliminary plat File: P-14042 Development Review Committee The Development Review Committee (DRC) has reviewed the Preliminary Plat application on October 29, 2014 and November 5, 2014. Two variance requests were submitted on November 13, 2014. The DRC reviewed the complete application on November 26 and December 3, 2014. The DRC recommended conditional approval of the preliminary plat application. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board The Recreation and Parks Advisory Board reviewed the proposed subdivision on October 31, 2014. Being aware of the storied history of the development they provided specific comment and recommendations. The RPAB comment and recommendations are attached to this report. Specific recommendations include: ■ The park in phase 1 provides 4.25 acres but was never dedicated to the city. It was to be developed jointly with the subdivision to the east, Flanders Creek, but that development has not followed through on the plan. The combined park offers a nice open grassy area with some mature trees, but the trails are in disrepair and no amenities have been built. It is unknown to us if the existing park(s) have been developed to minimum city standards. The proposed joint playground/neighborhood center was never built. The Traditions side of the park has a large expanse of grass with scattered rock features. These features present an obstacle to active play, but there is insufficient additional landscaping, amenities, or playground to make it an attractive passive park. As the Traditions park was never was dedicated to the city, if phase 2-3 is unable to get credit for the phase 1 park, the applicant has no incentive to improve that park. ■ Our proposal is for the developer to dedicate the phase 1 and phase 2 parks at preliminary plat, build the neighborhood center in the phase 1 park to be developed with phase 2. The park in phase 2 will be developed with phase 3. The result will be a real gain to the residents: improving and locating the Neighborhood Center in the larger park rather than in the more linear phase 2 Park. in If you consider phases 2 and 3 as a stand-alone project, dedicating the phase 1 park would be an offsite dedication and would then meet the dedication requirement. Planning Board The Planning Board is scheduled to consider the Traditions Major Subdivision at their January 6, 2015 public meeting. P-14042, Staff Reportfor Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 22 of 43 The Planning Board held its public hearing on January 6, 2015. No public comment was received. The Planning Board voted not to recommend the variance from minimum level of service standards with amended Condition No. 33. The Board voted to recommend the block length variance request. In conclusion the Planning Board voted to recommend approval of the preliminary plat with the conditions and code provisions as noted in this staff report. City Commission The City Commission public hearing is scheduled for February 2, 2015 to consider the preliminary plat and make a final decision on this application. SECTION 6- STAFF ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS Analysis and resulting recommendations are based on the entirety of the application materials, municipal codes, standards, and plans, public comment, and all other materials available during the review period. Collectively this information is the record of the review. The analysis is a summary of the completed review. Applicable Subdivision Review Criteria,Section 38.03.040,BMC. In considering applications for subdivision approval under this title, the advisory boards and City Commission shall consider the following: 1) Compliance with the survey requirements of Part 4 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The preliminary plat has been prepared in accordance with the survey requirements of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Montana. As noted in recommended Condition No. 2, the final plat must comply with State statute, Administrative Rules of Montana, and the Bozeman Municipal Code. 2) Compliance with the local subdivision regulations provided for in Part 5 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The final plat shall comply with the standards identified and referenced in the Unified Development Code (UDC). The applicant is advised that unmet code provisions, or code provisions that are not specifically listed as a condition of approval, does not, in any way, create a waiver or other relaxation of the lawful requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code or State law. The parcel is less than 160 acres. Therefore, to comply with the requirements of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act the entire area must be included with each final plat. However, as a phased subdivision, not all of the improvements necessary to develop individual lots will be installed at once. In order to provide notice of the pending requirement for infrastructure P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 23 of 43 completion a note is required to be provided with each final plat. See Condition 4. This condition will serve the role of a guarantee of performance for future development. This protects potential buyers without causing a financial burden on the developer. 3) Compliance with the local subdivision review procedures provided for in Part 6 of the Montana Subdivision and Platting Act The hearings before the Planning Board and City Commission have been properly noticed as required by the Bozeman UDC. Based on the recommendation of the DRC, RPAB, and other applicable review agencies, as well as any public testimony received on the matter, the Planning Board shall forward a recommendation in a report to the City Commission who will make the final decision on the applicant's request. A preliminary plat application was submitted on July 30, 2014 and after the receipt of additional information required by Title 38 of the Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) on October 14, 2014 was deemed acceptable for initial review on October 15, 2014. The preliminary plat was reviewed by the DRC on October 29, 2014 and November 5, 2014 and after additional information was provided continued the review on November 26 and December 3, 2014. The DRC and Staff determined the submittal contained detailed, supporting information that is sufficient to allow for the review of the proposed subdivision on November 26, 2014. Public notice for this application was placed in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle on Sunday, December 21, 2014. The site was posted with a public notice on December 17, 2014. Public notice was sent to physically adjacent property owners via certified mail, and to all other property owners of record within 200 feet of the subject property via first class mail, on December 15, 2014. No comments have been received as of the production date of this report. Two variances were identified and were included in the notices to the public and will be addressed in the actions by the Planning Board and City Commission. The conditions necessary to ensure that this application complies with required review procedures are included in Sections 3 and 4 of this report and are identified with each variance. The final plat to be recorded for each phase will require review to ensure that all requirements of the law and conditions of approval have been met. Installation of required infrastructure and dedication of easements and lands will be verified at that time. Failure to comply with conditions of approval will preclude approval. See Conditions 2 and 35. 4) Compliance with Chapter 38, BMC and other relevant regulations Based on review of the DRC and the Department of Community Development it appears that not all applicable regulations have been met. Pertinent code provisions and site specific requirements are included in this report for City Commission consideration (variances) which brings the proposed subdivision into compliance with all adopted codes. P-14042,Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 24 of 43 5) The provision of easements to and within the subdivision for the location and installation of any necessary utilities As noted under Staff Finding No. 2 above and required Section 38.23.060.A, all easements, existing and proposed, shall be accurately depicted and addressed on the final plat and in the final plat application. Therefore, all utilities and necessary utility easements will be provided and depicted accordingly on the final plat. Condition 25 requires the provision of an adequate easement for the ditch along Baxter Lane 6) The provision of legal and physical access to each parcel within the subdivision and the notation of that access on the applicable plat and any instrument transferring the parcel All of the proposed lots have frontage to public streets constructed to City standards with lot frontage meeting minimum standard shown on the preliminary plat. In addition, pursuant to Section 38.24.090.A, BMC, plats shall contain a statement requiring lot accesses to be built to the standard contained in this section, the city design standards and specifications policy, and the city modifications to state public works standard specifications. Primary Subdivision Review Criteria,Section 76-3-608 1) The effect on agriculture The subject property is designated as a residential area according to the City of Bozeman Community Plan. The area is zoned for residential development and has previously undergone subdivision review and approval and has begun to be developed. Although the property has historically been used for agricultural production those activities have ceased. In addition, the subject property was previously reviewed and approved for a major residential subdivision in 2005. Therefore, this subdivision will not have adverse effects on agriculture. 2) The effect on Agricultural water user facilities Baxter Creek/Ditch runs along the western edge of the development. The waterway is defined as a watercourse and conveys agricultural water for downstream users. Wetlands have been identified adjacent to Baxter Creek. Therefore, agricultural water user facility, wetland, and watercourse regulations apply. The Applicant proposes to apply a 50 foot wetland all water users have access for ongoing maintenance of the facility after development occurs Condition 25). 3) The effect on Local services Water/Sewer — Municipal water and sewer mains were installed in anticipation of development in the adjacent street right-of-ways with the original subdivision application. Each lot will connect to the constructed water and sewer mains designed to the appropriate design standard shall be located in the standard location as approved by the water/sewer superintendent. The water and wastewater treatment plants have adequate capacity to serve this development. The impacts of the development on the water and wastewater systems will be mitigated by the P-14042,Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 25 of 43 conditions of approval, future impact fee payments, provision of water rights or cash-in-lieu thereof, and the future utility charges to residents. The City's design manual provides the specific guidance for detailed infrastructure design. Streets — All streets and alleys within Phase 2 have been installed. Two variances to the Unified Development Code, BMC relating to streets have been requested. See the subdivision variance review section of this report for discussion on the variances. Staff has concluded that one of the two the variances meet the required criteria. Staff is not supporting the request to exceed maximum block length standards. Staff is not supportive of granting relief from intersection level of service standards. West Oak Street is identified as Principal Arterial according to the Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan (2007 Update). Conditions 29, 31, and 37 are included to bring the subdivision into compliance with this designation. The Traffic Impact Study (TIS)was done to assess impacts caused by the proposed development. Primary findings listed in Section H — Impact Summary & Recommendation states that intersection of Durston road and Cottonwood Road is currently operating at a poor Level of Service (LOS) in the PM peak-hour and the traffic generated by the development will add to this problem. A four-way stop will add additional capacity but will not solve the underlying issue. It is recommended that the developers participate in the reconstruction of this intersection once a design has been finalized. The Applicant has requested a variance from Section 38.24.060.B.4, BMC Street Improvement Standards for intersection level of service at Durston Road and Cottonwood Road to be less than level C at time of final plat for some phases of the subdivision. Staff does not support the variance request. A Traffic Impact Study (TIS) was done to assess impacts caused by the proposed development. Primary findings listed in Section H — Impact Summary & Recommendation state that the intersection of Durston road and Cottonwood Road is currently operating at a poor Level of Service (LOS) in the PM peak-hour and the traffic generated by the development will add to this problem. A four-way stop will add additional capacity but will not solve the underlying issue. Section 38.24.060.B.4 of the UDO states "A development shall be approved only if the LOS requirements are met in the design year, which shall be a minimum of 15 years following the development application review or construction of mitigation measures if mitigation measures are required to maintain LOS". This is to insure that additional traffic is not added to an intersection that has an existing level of service problem, further adding to the problem. Poor level of service is an indication of operational problems at the intersection that can lead to additional accidents. Granting of the variance will also negatively impact the public who currently use the intersection in that the additional traffic will increase the delay at the intersection. The intersection will continue to degrade as additional developments are approved. P-14042,Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 26 of 43 The City currently has undertaken a project to complete the design of Durston and Cottonwood Roads which would include the design of this intersection, but the funding for constructing the improvements is a number of years off. More specifically, under Impact Fee Project No. 27 street improvements for Cottonwood are scheduled for fiscal year 2019 with design work funding allocated in fiscal year 2016 for Cottonwood between Baxter Lane and Fallon Street. Also, the design for street improvements for Durston Road is scheduled for fiscal year 2016 under Impact Fee Project No. 59. The analysis shows that even with the installation of 4 way stop control at the intersection two movements will be below the required level of service of C during the pm peak hour. The northbound through movement will experience delays of 33 seconds resulting in a level of service of D, while the westbound left (from Cottonwood onto Durston) will experience delay of 110 seconds resulting in a level of service of F. The overall intersection delay would be 62 seconds which is also a Ievel of service F. This is addressed under, Section 6, subdivision variance 1. The application includes a request for a variance from Section 38.23.040.B, block length. Block 1 length averages 586.97 feet. City Code requires block length to be between 300 and 400 feet or provide an alternative compliance option of Section 38.23.040. The alternative compliance is not provided necessitating a variance. Should the Commission not approve the requested variance from maximum block length standards Condition No. 35 is included to insure all future lots meet minimum City standards. Staff does not support the variance request. Although the original subdivision secured a variance from block length to allow this design the integration of pedestrian pathways, subdivision design, connectivity, and focus on the long term health of the community block length does not allow us to support the variance. The provision of Section 38.23.040.B allows block lengths can be longer than 400 feet if necessary due to topography, the presence of critical lands, access control, or adjacency to existing parks or open space. These criteria do not apply in this case. Alternatively pedestrian rights-of-way, not less than ten feet wide, can be utilized to break up long block length, provide access to the park and open space areas to future residence of Traditions and the neighboring Flanders Creek Subdivision as described in Section 38.23.040.D. This is addressed under, Section 6, subdivision variance 2. The special improvement lighting district has been created that includes all phases of the Tradition subdivision. Phase 2 and 3 are required to join in the ongoing operational cost associated with the district. Condition 19 requires the use of LED lighting fixtures. This does not modify the pole heights or similar physical performance features. LED street light fixtures have been tested by the City and found to have better performance with lower power consumption and less frequent failures and required maintenance than the standard lights. Therefore, as the residents of the subdivision will be responsible for paying for the ongoing expenses of the P-14042, Staff Reportfor Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 27 of 43 lighting, it is appropriate for the City to ensure that the most efficient and best performing lighting is installed to reduce ongoing costs and ensure that the level of service is maintained. Police/Fire— The property is located within the City's Police and Fire emergency response area. The subdivider must obtain addresses for the new lots from the City Engineer's Office prior to filing the final plat to facilitate emergency response to the site. Stormwater - The standard requirement for a detailed review of the final grading and drainage plan, and approval by the City Engineer, will be required as part of the infrastructure plan and specification review process prior to final plat approval. Specific locations for storm water areas are show on the face of the plat. Parklands - The Applicant proposes creation of 22 single household residences, and five multi- household lots of 8.94 acres in net size. Lot R1 density has not been determined. Pursuant to Section 38.27.A.2, BMC parkland dedication for initial subdivision when net density is unknown is equal to that required for eight (8) dwelling units per net acre. Collectively, the minimum parkland requirement is 2.772 acres for phase 2 and 3. The development is providing 6.0076 acres. Single Household Lots 0.66 Multi-household Lots (phase 2) 0.181 Multi-household Lots (Phase 3) 1.931 2.772 acres Section P (page 4) of Plat Supplement contained in the Applicant Submittal articulates the developers preferred method of providing parkland. Traditions Phase 1 dedicated 4.2558 acres although only required 2.67 acres, or an excess of 1.5858 acres. As noted above Phase 2 will require 0.841 of parkland dedication. Therefore Phase 1 provided sufficient parkland to meet the immediate needs of phase 2. In addition, the developer proposes dedicating the remaining parkland (1.7518 acres) with Phase 3 including all parkland improvements. A portion of the proposed parkland area is defined as linear park created by the Baxter Ditch requiring the Commission to determine whether or not the proposed configuration and location of such a park is appropriate. Pursuant to Section 38.27.070 if consistent with the growth policy or citywide park plan, and if reviewed and approved by the review authority, linear parks shall be dedicated to the city to provide corridors for recreation pathways as defined in 38.27.110. The proposed park provides sufficient width, the propose tail corridor is outside any required setback, and maintenance provisions are in accordance with Section 38.27.110.E. The park is in accordance with City policy by providing park and open space area is directly adjacent to multi- household development providing recreational space greater than what is normally associated with this type of housing which single-household parcels inherently enjoy. Therefore, the proposed park configuration meets the term for linear parks. P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 28 of 43 Traditions Phase 2 & 3 generally continues the park plan reviewed and approved with the original Traditions subdivision application. An excess of parkland was dedicated with Traditions Phase 1 as noted on the Park Area Tabulation located on the second page of the preliminary plat. The calculation states 2.67 acres were required with phase I and 4.2558 were dedicated. Pursuant to Section 38.27.060.A, BMC, park land, excluding linear trail corridors, shall have frontage along 100 percent of its perimeter on public or private streets or roads. The city may consider and approve the installation of streets along less than 100 percent, but not less than 50 percent, of the perimeter when certain conditions are met. Section 38.27.060.A, BMC outlines what conditions allow less than 100 percent public access. In this case the northern half of the proposed park is a linear park and includes direct pedestrian access is provided to a portion of the perimeter perimeters without street frontage. The design is necessary due to Baxter Ditch and the presence of critical lands. Finally, additional park development in the form of trail connections and excess parkland is being provided. The RPAB supported the design and park plan for the expanded park. In order to meet the standards found in Section 38.27, BMC a Park Master Plan was developed for the Traditions subdivision and is included with the applicant submittal. The Recreation and Parks Advisory Board subdivision reviewed the proposed on October 31, 2014. The RPAB is generally supportive of the applicant's proposal of parkland, trail system, and neighborhood center. However, the Board noted there are minor modifications needed to bring the proposal into full compliance with City code. The revised Parks Plan will require review of the RPAB and approval of the City Commission prior to final plat approval of any phase of the subdivision (Condition 16). Additional comments and mitigation were suggested; the complete RPAB comments are attached to this report. 4) The effect on the Natural environment No significant physical or topographical features have been identified, (e.g., outcroppings, geological formations, steep slopes), on the subject property. However, as noted on the plat Baxter Ditch crosses the property and is subject to a 50 foot wetlands setback provisions. The Parks Master Plan includes appropriate planting plan as required by Section 38.23.100.A.2(e). Some noxious weeds are on the site that will addressed by the weed management plan and maintenance of the property and will be further addressed by inclusion in the existing protective covenants and compliance with the recommended conditions of approval. The area is known to have high groundwater a note will be placed on the plat to advise future buyers of this issue. See Condition 24. 5) The effect on Wildlife and wildlife habitat The subject property is designated as a residential area according to the City of Bozeman Community Plan. The area is zoned for residential development has previously undergone P-14042,Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 29 of 43 subdivision review and approval and has begun to be developed. The impacts to the more important habitat areas were addressed and mitigated during the review of the previously approved Traditions subdivision. Sensitive habitat areas are contained within the common open space surrounding the watercourse and provide a buffer between any development activity and this area. Therefore,the subdivision will have minimal impacts on wildlife and wildlife habitat. 6) The effect on Public health and safety The intent of the regulations in Chapter 38 of the Bozeman Municipal Code is to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. The subdivision has been reviewed by the DRC which has determined that it is in general compliance with the title. Any other conditions deemed necessary to ensure compliance have been noted throughout this staff report. In addition, all subdivisions must be reviewed against the criteria listed in 76-3-608.3.b-d, Mont Code Ann. and as a result, the Department of Community Development has reviewed this application against the listed criteria and further provides the following summary for submittal materials and requirements. A variance has been requested from the required level of service for the intersection of Durston Road and Cottonwood Roads. Please see the discussion under the variances section of this report. Preliminary Plat Supplements A subdivision pre-application plan review was completed by the DRC on June 25, 2014. With the pre-application plan review application, waivers were requested by the applicant from Section 38.41.060 "Additional Subdivision Preliminary Plat Supplements" for several of the standard preliminary plat supplements due to the nature of this previously platted/developed property. The DRC granted a partial waiver to the supplemental information under 38.41.060, BMC. Staff offers the following summary comments on the supplemental information required with Article 38.41, BMC. 38.41.060.A.1 Surface Water A partial waiver was granted by the DRC during the pre-application review. As described above, Baxter Ditch runs along the western edge of the property. No modifications to the watercourse are proposed. The Applicant is providing all necessary setbacks to insure the integrity of the stream will be maintained. No development will occur adjacent to the watercourse and the park plan shows areas for passive activity with a trail corridor outside the wetland setback. 38.41.060.A.2 Floodplains A partial waiver was granted by the DRC during the pre-application review. The subject property is classified as Zone "X" according to the Flood Rate Insurance Map, Community Panel No. 3000280016 C. Zone "X" indicates areas outside of the 500 year floodplain. Therefore, there is minimal impact caused by floodplains. P-14042, Staff Reportfor Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 30 of 43 38.41.060.A.3 Groundwater Supplemental groundwater information was granted a waiver to the supplemental information requirement by the pre-application process and may use the previous information submitted with the Traditions Subdivision. Extensive groundwater monitoring was performed for the Traditions subdivision in 2004 showing a proclivity of high groundwater in the area. Ground water was found to be between 4 to 5 feet below grade. A standard plat note is required to inform future property owners of the high ground water and to seek the appropriate professional investigation prior to contraction(Condition 24). 38.41.060.A.4 Geology, Soils and Slopes Supplemental information waived by the DRC. The subject property has previous undergone subdivision review. There are no known geologic hazards associated with the site. The property is relatively flat minimizing geologic hazards. 38.41.060.A.5 Vegetation Supplemental information waived by the DRC. No significant or critical vegetation exists on the subject property. Noxious weeds are being controlled by the required Noxious Weed Management Plan. In addition, there are ongoing performance measures required with the Weed Management Plan to insure control of noxious weeds on site. 38.41.060.A.6 Wildlife Supplement information waived by the DRC. This is a developing urban area. The primary wildlife corridor is being preserved as common open space to protect the water course and sensitive vegetative cover that is conducive to support wildlife. Therefore, the subdivision will have minimal impacts on wildlife. The Parks Master Plan includes proposed plantings and improvements in open space and park areas. 38.41.060.A.7 Historical Features Supplemental information waived by the DRC. This is a developing urban area. According to the Meadow Creek Phase I subdivision submittal there was no indication of any prehistoric or historic cultural resources on the site. 38.41.060.A.8 Agriculture Supplemental information waived by the DRC. This is a developing area and this property is not used for agriculture. 38.41.060.A.9 Agricultural Water User Facilities Supplemental information waived by the DRC. As described above, Baxter Ditch runs along the western edge of the property. No modifications to the agricultural water user facility are proposed. The Applicant is providing all necessary setbacks to insure the integrity of the stream will be maintained. No development will occur adjacent to the watercourse and the park plan P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 31 of 43 shows areas for passive activity with a trail corridor outside the wetland setback. In addition, an easement is required to provide access to beneficiary for access and maintenance (Condition 26). 38.41.060.A.10 Water and Sewer Water and sewer designs were submitted and approved by the City of Bozeman and MDEQ in 2005. A copy of the design report is included in Appendix C of the Applicant submittal. Public infrastructure improvements have been installed in Rosa Way, Sherwood Way, Annie Street, and Twin Lakes Avenue. Additional water and sewer lines will be constructed to serve each individual lot without service. The City Engineering Department has reviewed the existing improvements on May 13, 2009 and found certain improvements were not completed. Those deficiencies will be required to completed prior o final plat approval (Condition 35). Those improvements are listed in Appendix C of the Applicant submittal. City Engineering conditioned the subdivision that all water and sewer service lines shall be located in the standard location as approved by the water/sewer superintendent. 38.41.060.A.11 Stormwater Management Stormwater improvements for the Southbridge subdivision were previously installed for Traditions subdivision, including piping, manholes, catch basins and detention facilities. Stormwater facilities include surface and curb flow, pipe conveyance, and detention basins. The storm sewer inlet and piping system was designed to handle a 25-year storm event. Placement and design of the facilities will be approved by both the City Engineer's Office and Planning Office. 38.41.060.A.12 Streets, Roads and Alleys Addressed under the primary review criteria. 38.41.060.A.13 Utilities All private utilities servicing the subdivision will be installed underground. The DRC and local review agencies did not identify any potential impacts and/or concerns with providing private utilities to the subdivision. The final plat shall provide public utility easements along all front, side and rear lot lines as required by Section 38.23.050, BMC. However, in the event front and/or rear yard utility easements are used, side rear yard easements must still be provided on the plat unless written confirmation is submitted to the Planning Office from all utility companies and Director of Public Works indicating that front and rear yard 10- foot wide easements are adequate to service said subdivision lots. 38.41.060.A.14 Educational Facilities The Bozeman School District's review comments indicate they can accommodate the additional students expected from this development. The site is adjacent to the Meadowlark Elementary School and the purchased site for the second high school. The site is within 0.68 miles of the Meadowlark Elementary School. P-I4042,Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 32 of 43 38.41.060.A.15 Land Use The proposal is to develop residences, open spaces and parks consistent with the approved zoning. The application as proposed meets the required residential density of Section 38.08.080. 38.41.060.A.16 Parks and Recreation Facilities See discussion above under Local Services. 38.41.060.A.17 Neighborhood Center Plan Pursuant to Section 38.23.020.A, BMC to provide a neighborhood focal point, all residential subdivisions or planned unit developments, that are ten net acres in size or greater, shall have a neighborhood center. A neighborhood center is required for this development. The original subdivision proposed a neighborhood center for both Traditions and Flanders Creek subdivision. However, that amenity was not completed. The revised Traditions Phase 2&3 subdivision proposed the Neighborhood Center to be located on the southeast corner of Phase 2 Park and open space as shown on the Park Master Plan. After discussion with the RPAB a more suitable location was agreed upon as described in Exhibit A attached to this report and the figure below. The revised location is within the existing park area in Traditions Phase 1 on the south side of Annie Street. This modification, in part, necessitates the Park Master Plan to come back before the RPAB and City Commission for final review and approval to insure all aspects of the parks development are met (Condition 16). Although the neighborhood center is adjacent to private open space the area is the 50 foot stream setback area for Baxter Ditch/Creek which extends northeasterly through Phase 2 &3. There are no barriers between the public parks are and the private open space. The Neighborhood Center will meet current design with amenities meeting the standards under Section 38.23.020.A, BMC.

The Workforce Housing, Section 10.08.030, BMC, had been suspended by the City Commission. Subdivision Variance Review Criteria,Section 38.35.070,BMC The applicant requested two variances as part of this subdivision application. The subdivision variances requested are: 1) Section 38.24.060.B.4 Street Improvement Standards - Variance for intersection level of service at Durston Rd and Cottonwood Road to be less than level C at time of final plat for some phases of the subdivision. P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 34 of 43 2) Section 38.23.040 Blocks—Variance for maximum block length to exceed 400 feet. Review criteria. Per MCA 76-3-506, a variance to this chapter must be based on specific variance criteria, and may not have the effect of nullifying the intent and purpose of this chapter. The city shall not approve subdivision variances unless it makes findings based upon the evidence presented in each specific case that the required criteria have been met. The criteria for each variance are shown within the analysis for that variance. Subdivision Variance Request 1) Section 38.24.060.B.4 Street Improvement Standards - Variance for intersection level of service at Durston Rd and Cottonwood Road to be less than level C at time of final plat for some phases of the subdivision. 1. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare, or be injurious to other adjoining properties; The Traffic Impact Study (TIS) was done to assess impacts caused by the proposed development. Primary findings listed in Section H — Impact Summary & Recommendation states that intersection of Durston road and Cottonwood Road is currently operating at a poor Level of Service (LOS) in the PM peak-hour and the traffic generated by the development will add to this problem. A four-way stop will add additional capacity but will not solve the underlying issue. It is recommended that the developers participate in the reconstruction of this intersection once a design has been finalized. Section 38.24.060.B.4 of the UDO states "A development shall be approved only if the LOS requirements are met in the design year, which shall be a minimum of 15 years following the development application review or construction of mitigation measures if mitigation measures are required to maintain LOS". This is to insure that additional traffic is not added to an intersection that has an existing level of service problem, further adding to the problem. Poor level of service is an indication of operational problems at the intersection that can lead to additional accidents. Granting of the variance will also negatively impact the public who currently use the intersection in that the additional traffic will increase the delay at the intersection. The intersection will continue to degrade as additional developments are approved. The City currently has undertaken a project to complete the design of Durston and Cottonwood Roads which would include the design of this intersection, but the funding for constructing the improvements is a number of years off. The analysis shows that even with the installation of 4 way stop control at the intersection two movements will be below the required level of service of C during the pm peak hour. The northbound through movement will experience delays of 33 seconds resulting in a level of service of D, while the westbound left (from Cottonwood onto Durston) will experience delay of 110 seconds resulting in a level of service of F. The overall intersection delay would be 62 seconds which is also a level of service F. Staff does not support the variance request. P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 35 of 43 2. Because of the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the specific property involved, an undue hardship to the owner would result if strict interpretation of this chapter is enforced; There are no conditions unique to the property which would unavoidably result in an undue hardship if the code is enforced. It is not unusual at all for intersection improvements to be made prior to the entire corridor improvements being completed. Improvements to this intersection are also recommended by the Transportation Plan. The improvement to the intersection can all be built without the need to utilize any unusual construction practices. Staff concludes the criterion is not met. 3. The variance will not cause a substantial increase in public costs; and Granting the variance would have an effect on public costs in that the City would need to pay the entire cost of the improvements in the future. Sixty percent of the cost of the improvements would be impact fee eligible, but there is currently no funding source identified for the remaining forty percent. If the variance is not granted, this could be the developer(s) contribution. If the variance is granted, the forty percent will need to be paid by additional public funds. Staff concludes the criterion is not met. 4. The variance will not, in any manner, place the subdivision in nonconformance with any other provisions of this chapter or with the city's growth policy. Staff has not identified any other non-compliance caused by the variance. Staff concludes the criterion is met. The Commission considered the variance request from Section 38.24.060.B.4 Street Improvement Standards - Variance for intersection level of service at Durston Road and Cottonwood Road to be less than level C at time of final plat for some phases of the subdivision; AV Capture time stamp 2:23:30 to 2:40:00. The Commission amended Condition No. 33 to add "according to proportional costs" as reflected in this report. The Commission adopted staff findings and voted to deny the requested variance from intersection level of service functioning standards after amending Condition No. 33 (0:5). Subdivision Variance Request 2) Section 38.23.040, BMC Block Length — Variance for maximum block length to exceed 400 feet. 1. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare, or be injurious to other adjoining properties; Block 1 length averages 586.97 feet. City Code requires block length to be between 300 and 400 feet or provide an alternative compliance option of Section 38.23.040. Planning Staff maintains that pedestrian walks should be installed to break up the block length and to P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 36 of 43 provide interconnectivity. The Unified Development Ordinance states that for the purposes of reducing block length and facilitating pedestrian movements in cul-de-sacs that pedestrian walks are appropriate. The code requires a 5 foot wide sidewalk with a 10 foot wide easement. Lots adjacent to a pedestrian walks must provide a 15 foot corner side yard setback similar to a corner lot on a local street. If however, the easement is 30 feet or greater the standard side yard setback applies. Integrating a mid block pedestrian crossing would eliminate the need for a variance and may not decrease the number of lots that can be created. The park and trail corridor to the west is connected to Rosa Way to provide active and passive recreational activities for both the residence of Traditions and Flanders Creek subdivisions. The alley in Block 1 is constructed to a paved standard. As noted in Section 38.23.040.D any block length exceeding 600 feet shall intersect a street or pedestrian path. Staff does not believe a street crossing would serve the community however. Providing pedestrian circulation is a priority of the City's Growth Policy and is integral in the function of the Traditions park area. Although there are sidewalks installed on adjacent public streets Block 1 serves a separation between the communities. Therefore, staff does not support the variance request. The Applicant has provided justification for their request which is attached to this report. 2. Because of the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the specific property involved, an undue hardship to the owner would result if strict interpretation of this chapter is enforced; As noted earlier water and sewer lines for block 1 have been installed. The proposed design does not require the any installed utilities to be relocated. If a mid block pedestrian or street was required a number of the lots will be required to be reconfigured and those service lines may be required to be relocated as required by Condition 36. The property has very little topographic relief. There are no unusual shapes or other physical features surrounding the area that would create undue hardship requiring block length to exceed 400 feet. Therefore, Staff concludes the criterion is not met. As noted under criterion number one the Applicant has provided justification for their request which is attached to this report. 3. The variance will not cause a substantial increase in public costs; and No increase in public cost is anticipated by granting a variance from maximum block lengths. However, there is a potential increase in cost attributed to reducing connectivity of the community and reduced options for pedestrian walkways which, in turn may have detrimental effects on public health, albeit small. Therefore, it appears the variance does not substantially raise public costs. Staff concludes the criterion is met. P-14042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 37 of 43 4. The variance will not, in any manner, place the subdivision in nonconformance with any other provisions of this chapter or with the city's growth policy. Staff has not identified any other non-compliance caused by the variance. Staff concludes the criterion is met. The Commission made alternate findings in granting the variance request. The Board found that criterion No. 1 and 2 above were met because neighborhood design has been established by previously subdivided lands with longer block length that current standards allow. The Commission noted the mid block crossing does not provide critical pedestrian connectivity. In addition, relocating property boundaries would necessitate relocating existing water and sewer lines. In conclusion, the Commission voted 5:0 to approve the block length variance request. The Commission considered the variance request from Section 38.23.040, BMC Block Length — Variance for maximum block length to exceed 400 feet from AV Capture time stamp 2:40:15 to 2:47:20. The Commission made alternate findings and voted unanimously to grant the variance. The decision was based on existing conditions of the developing area in the immediate vicinity that granting the variance would not be detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the community, and found that all review criteria were met. The Commission voted 5:0 to grant the variance from block length standards as described in this report. SECTION 6- FINDINGS OF FACT, ORDER AND APPEAL PROVISIONS A. PURSUANT to Chapter 38, Article 3, BMC, and other applicable sections of Chapter 38, BMC, public notice was given, opportunity to submit comment was provided to affected parties, and a review of the preliminary plat described in this findings of fact was conducted. The applicant presented to the City a proposed preliminary plat for a major subdivision for the subdivision of approximately 21.38 acres into 22 single-household residential lots, five (5) multi-household residential lots, two (2) Open Space lots, one (1) Park, and with the remaining area as street right of ways with variances. B. The purposes of the preliminary plat review were to consider all relevant evidence relating to public health, safety, welfare, and the other purposes of Chapter 38, BMC; to evaluate the proposal against the criteria and standards of Chapter 38 BMC, BMC; and to determine whether the plat should be approved, conditionally approved, or denied. C. It appeared to the City Commission that all parties and the public wishing to examine the proposed preliminary plat and offer comment were given the opportunity to do so. After receiving the recommendation of the relevant advisory bodies established by Section Chapter P-14042,Staff Reportfor Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 38 of 43 38, Article 33, BMC, and considering all matters of record presented with the application and during the public comment period defined by Chapter 38, BMC, the City Commission has found that the proposed preliminary plat would comply with the requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code if certain conditions were imposed. Therefore, being fully advised of all matters having come before her regarding this application, the City Commission makes the following decision. D. The preliminary plat has been found to meet the criteria of Chapter 38, BMC, and is therefore approved, subject to the conditions listed in Section 2 of this report and the correction of any elements not in conformance with the standards of the Chapter including those identified in Section 3 of this report. The evidence contained in the submittal materials, advisory body review, public testimony, and this report,justify the conditions imposed on this development to ensure that the final site plan and subsequent construction complies with all applicable regulations, and all applicable criteria of Chapter 38, BMC. E. This City Commission order may be appealed by bringing an action in the Eighteenth District Court of Gallatin County, within 30 days after the adoption of this document by the City Commission, by following the procedures of Section 76-3-625, MCA. The preliminary approval of this subdivision shall be effective for three (3) years from the date of the signed Findings of Fact and Order approval. At the end of this period the City may, at the request of the subdivider, grant an extension to its approval by the Community Development Director for a period of mutually agreed upon time. �M DATED this day of , 2015.

It is the duty of the applicant to submit plans and other materials which conform to all standards. Submittal of inaccurate or incomplete materials may delay review of the application or prohibit its approval. APPENDIX B —PROJECT SITE ZONING AND GROWTH POLICY Zoning Designation and Land Uses: Two zoning district classifications apply to the subject property. Traditions Phase 2 is zoned "R- 3" (Residential Medium Density District) and Phase 3 is zoned "R-4" (Residential High Density District). The intent of the R-3 residential medium density district is to provide for the development of one- to five-household residential structures near service facilities within the city. It should provide for a variety of housing types to serve the varied needs of households of different size, age and character, while reducing the adverse effect of nonresidential uses. Pursuant to Section 38.08.080, BMC, minimum net density in the R-3 District is five dwellings per net acre. A minimum is required to support efficiency in use of land and provision of municipal services, and to advance the purposes and goals of this chapter and the adopted growth policy. This phase will create 22 single-household lots and 4 multi-household lots on 4.4 net acres for a density of approximately 7.7 dwellings per net acre. The intent of the R-4 residential high density district is to provide for high-density residential development through a variety of housing types within the city with associated service functions. This will provide for a variety of compatible housing types to serve the varying needs of the community's residents. Although some office use is permitted, it shall remain as a secondary use to residential development. Secondary status shall be as measured by percentage of total building area. The proposed density is not known at this time. Adopted Growth Policy Designation: The property is designated as "Residential" in the Bozeman Community Plan. The Plan indicates that "This category designates places where the primary activity is urban density dwellings. Other uses which complement residences are also acceptable such as parks, low intensity home based occupations, fire stations, churches, and schools. High density residential areas should be established in close proximity to commercial centers to facilitate the provision of P-14042,Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 41 of 43 services and employment opportunities to persons without requiring the use of an automobile. Implementation of this category by residential zoning should provide for and coordinate intensive residential uses in proximity to commercial centers. The residential designation indicates that it is expected that development will occur within municipal boundaries, which may require annexation prior to development." The dwelling unit density expected within this classification varies between 6 and 32 dwellings per net acre. APPENDIX C—DETAILED PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Project Description The property owner and Applicant Rosa Construction, Inc., 209 Black Bull Trail, Bozeman, MT 597188, represented by C & H Engineering and Surveying, Inc., 1091 Stoneridge Drive, Bozeman MT 59718 submitted an application to subdivide 21.38 acres into 22 single-household residential lots, five (5) multi-family residential lots, two (2) Open Space lots, one (1) Park, and with the remaining area as street right of ways. Traditions Phase 2&3 was re-submitted in accordance with the original approval in 2004. However, a number of current codes and requirements were not met by the previous design requiring modifications. Thos e modifications have been made and are shown on the preliminary plat being considered. Specifically, the park plan, based on comments from Planning and the Recreation and Parks Advisory Board (RPAB), was revised to meet current stands for size, configuration, amenities, and neighborhood center requirements. Project Background The Traditions subdivision (Phase 1-3) was reviewed and approved in November of 2004 (P04041). Traditions (aka Rosa subdivision) park plan was designed in conjunction with the neighboring property to the east, Flanders Creek subdivision to meet the needs of both developments. The Baxter Ditch (stream/ditch) bisects the subject property starting in the southeast corner of the property, adjacent to Flanders Creek Subdivision, to the northwest corner of the property, adjacent to Laurel Glen Subdivision. Dennis Balian, the owner of Flanders Creek Subdivision and John Rosa coordinated the development of their properties through street layout, park placement and trail design. Flanders Creek received final plat approval only Phase 1 of Traditions was completed. A one- year extension was granted on October 15, 2007 extending the preliminary plat approval to November 1, 2008. Traditions Phase 1 was platted in February 2007. Traditions Phase 2 & 3 preliminary plat approval expired. APPENDIX D —NOTICING AND PUBLIC COMMENT P-I4042, Staff Report for Traditions Phase 2 & 3 Major Subdivision Page 42 of 43 A subdivision pre-application was submitted on April 23, 2014. The pre-application was reviewed by the DRC on May 14, 21 and 28, 2014 and summary review comments were forwarded to the applicant in preparation of the preliminary plat application and granted numerous supplemental information waivers under 38.41.060, BMC. The hearings before the Planning Board and City Commission have been properly noticed as required by the Bozeman UDC. Based on the recommendation of the DRC, RPAB, and other applicable review agencies, as well as any public testimony received on the matter, the Planning Board shall forward a recommendation in a report to the City Commission who will make the final decision on the applicant's request. A preliminary plat application was submitted on July 30, 2014 and after the receipt of additional information required by Title 38 of the Bozeman Municipal Code (BMC) on October 14, 2014 was deemed acceptable for initial review on October 15, 2014. The preliminary plat was reviewed by the DRC on October 29, 2014 and November 5, 2014 and after additional information was provided continued the review on November 26 and December 3, 2014. The DRC and Staff determined the submittal contained detailed, supporting information that is sufficient to allow for the review of the proposed subdivision on November 26,2014. Public notice for this application was placed in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle on Sunday, December 21, 2014. The site was posted with a public notice on December 17, 2014. Public notice was sent to physically adjacent property owners via certified mail, and to all other property owners of record within 200 feet of the subject property via first class mail, on December 15, 2014. No comments have been received as of the production date of this report. Two variances were identified and were included in the notices to the public and will be addressed in the actions by the Planning Board and City Commission. The conditions necessary to ensure that this application complies with required review procedures are included in Sections 3 and 4 of this report and are identified with each variance. The final plat to be recorded for each phase will require review to ensure that all requirements of the law and conditions of approval have been met.
