Project Narrative:
The property owners of the existing parcel of land located at 918 S Tracy intend to split their 0.74
Acre lot into two separate parcels. They intend to have single family homes upon the proposed lots
to the full extent that the current zoning of R-2 will allow. The existing and newly proposed lots will
be accessed from South Tracy Ave as two individual drive ways, one for each lot or possibly a
shared drive way aligned with their common lot line. The existing and newly proposed water and
sewer services will connect to the existing water and sewer mains that are in South Tracy Ave. The
slope and vertical nature of the Southern lot poses a unique approach when selecting or designing a
structure for this particular lot. Such a design may include a multi-level structure with different
walk-out levels to the south. It is noted that all driveways or vehicular access will be from S. Tracy
utilizing an elevation and slope that meets City standards and is conducive to winters in Bozeman.
The infrastructure needed for this project is minimal as it is an infill development. We believe the
street cuts, curb cuts, driveway aprons, and additional water and sewer services is likely the bulk of
the infrastructure needed as part of a site plan review post subdivision approval. It is also noted
that an existing storm main and two manholes are located along the south side of the existing
parcel.

4. We do not intend to request any subdivision variances.
5. The owner does not intend to include any covenants, restrictions, or articles of

6. Encroachment permits are not necessary, since no new streets, easements, rights-of-way or
driveways that intersect State, County, or City highways are proposed.
7. There will not be a zoning change and therefore will not require a letter of approval.
8. Provision of maintenance is already provided for pollutions and erosion on the existing
roads providing access to the project site.
9. A Noxious Weed Management and Revegetation Plan has been approved for our project by
the Weed Control District.
