RE: Use of Cash-in-Lieu of Parkland Dedication—23rd Avenue Condominium;
Application Z14125
Dear Planning Office:
On behalf of our clients, Thunderbolt Properties, LLC, and Scott Johnson and John Rosa,
developers of the 23`d Avenue Condominium Project, we respectfully request that the enclosed
Cash-in-Lieu of Parkland Dedication in the amount of$25,092.00 [Check No. 1093, in the
amount of$12,543.00, Rosa Construction, Inc. and a check in the amount of$12,546 from Scott
and Wendy Johnson], be used for the Bozeman Sports Park Athletic Complex (`Bozeman Sports i
Park"), south of Baxter Lane, north of Oak Street, and between Flanders Mill Road and
Cottonwood Road. It is our understanding that the application for the Bozeman Sports Park has
been approved and the project is pending master plan approval, which is anticipated to take place
in March 2016. r
x
Bozeman's park dedication requirements and state law acknowledge that money dedicated may
r
be used to acquire, develop or maintain parks or recreational areas, given that Bozeman has
formally adopted a park plan that establishes the need and procedures for use of those funds, and
when the park and recreational area is located within a reasonably close proximity to the
proposed development. See, § 76-3-621, MCA, Section 38.27.030 BMC. In this case, the
Bozeman Sports Park is located within reasonably close proximity to the 23rd Avenue
Condominium.
We will submit a formal request on behalf of Thunderbolt Properties, LLC, and Scott Johnson
and John Rosa to the City of Bozeman Parks, Recreation and Cemetery Department.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions with respect to this request.
RESPECTFULLY,
GAL BREMER, & MOLLOY, P.C.
