SUBJECT: FINAL PLAT REVIEW FOR THE TRADITIONS PHASE 2 MAJOR
SUBDIVISION, PLANNING FILE NO. P15014

C&H Engineering & Surveying, Inc., on behalf of Rosa Construction, Inc. (Applicant), have made
application to the City of Bozeman Department of Community Development for Final Plat review and
approval for the Traditions Phase 2 Major Subdivision, a 26 lot subdivision.
The City Commission grated preliminary plat approval to subdivide 21.38 acres to create twenty-two
(22) single-household residential lots, four (4) multi-household residential lots, two (2) open space lots,
park area, and the remaining area as parks, streets and alleys. Attached is a copy of the signed Findings
of Fact and Order dated March 2, 2015. Improvement Agreements are required for this subdivision for
the installation of sidewalks improvements, infrastructure improvements, and landscaping improvements. All other necessary infrastructure improvements are constructed.
A “No Build” restriction will be placed on all lots within Phase until the intersection of Durston and
North Cottonwood is upgraded or an agreement signed as accepted by the City.
Based on the summary review provided below the Development Review Committee, the City Engineering’s Department and Department of Community Development have reviewed the application
against the conditions of preliminary plat approval; and as a result, find that the final plat application
may be approved by the City Commission.
Three (3) original mylars of the Final Plat, original Platting Certificate, copy of the property owner
association documents and a copy of the Findings of Fact and Order are attached for your review. The property owner’s association documents and other applicable documents will be recorded and filed with
the final plat at the Clerk and Recorder’s Office.
The Community Development staff respectfully requests that you prepare a City Attorney's
Certificate using the attached original Platting Certificate; approve the Certificates of Director of Public Works and Certificate of Completion "as to form". The final City signatures will be obtained once the City Commission has approved the final plat.
A final plat application was submitted to the Community Development Department on April 17, 2015.
Additional documentation was submitted on May 1, 5, 18, 20, 21, 2015 and June 18, 2015. Therefore,

further finding that after receiving supplemental information (signed Improvement Agreements, mylars,
and Letter of Credit) the application was deemed complete on June 26, 2015, the 45-day (working days) review period for this final plat would expire on August 31, 2014.
The conditions of preliminary plat approval, which are pertinent to this major subdivision, and how they
have been met are described in the submittal materials. Two exceptions to this are that it was determined
that a subdivision improvements agreements are required for uninstalled sidewalks, landscaping, and
open space development. We have those agreements in hand and the financial guarantee was provided by cash (two checks issued from Stockman Bank, 1433 N 19th Avenue, Bozeman, MT 59719 for the
amounts of $67,695.00 and $47,587.00).
Note: The Community Development Department and Engineering Departments have also reviewed
the final plat application against the preliminary plat cited code provisions and found compliance with these code requirements. The Engineering Department has also reviewed and approved the “closure” of the final plat.
