To Whom It May Concern:
We are soliciting your comments regarding a proposed subdivision located in the City of

Development (PUD), are currently being prepared for submittal to the City of Bozeman.
Draft copies of the Preliminary Plat and PUD are enclosed for your reference.
The overall PUD covers approximately 65 acres and calls for up to 300 residential units

disturbed as part of a gravel mining operation. All gravel mining operations have since
ceased and the area has been reclaimed.
As part of the subdivision application process, we are requesting any comments you

Subject: Preliminary Plat of The Lakes at Valley West Subdivision – Phase 1 & 2
Dear Mr. Jacobsen,
Referencing your letter received December 29th, 2014 concerning the evaluation of the subject development.
We would expect that the 59 residential units planned for Phase 1 & 2 would generate the following students:
Pre-K to 5th 14 Students
6th to 8th 7 Students
9th to 12th 9 Students
As of this date, the proposed development will be in the Meadowlark Elementary School, Chief Joseph
Middle School and Bozeman High School attendance areas. Population growth and demographic shifts in
the future may necessitate boundary realignments to existing schools which could modify the designated
attending schools. Similarly, if a designated school attendance area’s student population exceeds the
school’s capacity; attendance at an alternate school may be required.
Infrastructure, such as sidewalks, should be constructed for the entire project irrespective of when actual
homes are developed to provide a Safe Route to School pathway for students to safely traverse the
developed and existing roadways.
Our existing bus system can accommodate the estimated number of additional students. Please let us know
if there are any changes to the proposed development as this could modify the above student projections.
