The subject property is generally located within the Northeast 1/4 of Section 3, Township 2 South, Range 5 East, P.M.M., Gallatin County, MT. The total area of the subdivision is approximately 7.00 acres. The property is located on the northwestern side of Bozeman and is bordered to the east by Vaquero Parkway and to the west by the Gallatin County Regional Park. The entire property is found within the City of Bozeman Zoning District. It is currently zoned R-3 “Residential Medium Density District” and this development will have good access to parks, community services and transit. Project Description: The Parkview Crossing Subdivision has been carefully designed in conformance with the Bozeman Community Plan 2020. As a planned residential community, it is consistent with the Plan Themes and community-derived desired outcomes; specifically: “Theme 2: A City of Unique Neighborhoods” Goal N-1: Support well-planned, walkable neighborhoods. Parkview Crossings will provide residents easy access to the neighboring park, while also being centrally located within the city and having multi-modal access to public transportation. A shared use pathway will be constructed along the west side of Vaquero Parkway that will provide park connection from the northern property boundary to the southern edge of the property. Sidewalks will also be provided throughout the development. Goal N-2: Pursue Simultaneous emergence of commercial nodes and residential development through diverse mechanisms in appropriate locations. The proposed subdivision will be the last of its kind in the vicinity, as it is surrounded by existing residential development on three sides and the County Regional Park on its fourth. Goal N-3: Promote a diverse supply of quality housing units. The townhomes constructed with the development will range from 4- plex to duplex units with individual lot sizes ranging from 7,600 sq. ft. to 2,800 sq. ft. This will provide residents with a variety of home choices while retaining the affordability of the individual units. Goal N-4: Continue to encourage Bozeman’s sense of place. The neighborhood will be sought after as it will provide more multi- family housing near the widely known and frequented County Park while maintaining close access to schools, off-leash facilities for dog walking, and public transportation into the city. The property is well within the City of Bozeman Limits, and planned for extension of water and wastewater infrastructure for conveyance to the City. All interior subdivision roads will be paved and include concrete curb, gutter and sidewalks (per City of Bozeman Standard Specifications). The interior alley will be paved with an inverted crown. Fire protection will conform to the requirements of the Bozeman Municipal Code as approved by Bozeman Fire Department.
