Pre-Application
Subsequent Minor Subdivision
Lot 1, Block 14, Phase 2
BLACKWOOD GROVES
Block 14 Minor Subdivision
June 2023
Page 2 of 4
I. INTRODUCTION
This application proposes to subdivide Lot 1, Block 14, Blackwood Groves Subdivision, Phase 2 into 2
parcels. This application is a subsequent minor subdivision as the proposal only creates one new parcel.
The north lot (Lot 1A) will contain the Block 14 cottages (site plan approved - #22324) and the south lot
(Lot 1B) will contain the Block 14 Arbor Houses (site plan approved - #23043). The property is currently
undeveloped but building permits for several of the cottages have been obtained and construction for
the cottages on the north half of the block is anticipated to commence in June 2023. The proposed lot
line will run down the center of the private alley that separates the two projects.
II. UTILITILES
The existing utilities are included on the Pre-Application Plat Map submitted with this application. The
water and sanitary sewer mains and services have been stubbed into the property. The water and
sanitary sewer main extensions proposed within the private drive aisle are located within an existing
BLACKWOOD GROVES
Block 14 Minor Subdivision

Page 3 of 4
30-ft public utility easement. Stormwater runoff conveys to the Subdivision’s stormwater
system/facilities.
III. DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Construction of the cottages on the north half of the Block is commencing in June 2023. The building
permit applications for the Arbor Houses (Lot 1B – southern portion) will be submitted in early July
2023 with construction anticipated to commence in the fall of 2023.
IV. VARIANCES
No variances are proposed with this subdivision.
V. WAIVER REQUESTS
The following waivers from the requirements of BMC section 38.220.060 are requested:
1. Surface Water. The subdivision area does not contain any natural or artificial water systems.
2. Floodplains. The subdivision area does not contain any natural or artificial water systems and
their associated floodplains.
3. Groundwater. The groundwater depths were reviewed as part of the overall subdivision
permitting of the Blackwood Groves Subdivision. These groundwater depths are known and
are accounted for in the project design.
4. Geology; soils; slopes. There are no geologic hazards or unusual features located within the
proposed subdivision. The site slopes gradually to the north/northwest – the existing
contours are included on the pre-application plat map. The geotechnical report for the overall
Blackwood Groves Subdivision was reviewed as part of the subdivision permitting process.
Recommendations from the geotechnical report will be followed within this development.
5. Vegetation. There are no known critical plant communities within or adjacent to the
subdivision area. The perimeter of the parcel has been disturbed by the Phase 2
infrastructure construction. The subdivision area was previously cultivated for wheat and
alfalfa so no native vegetation was found within the proposed subdivision area. Noxious weed
management is ongoing in accordance with the approved Memorandum of Understanding for
the overall Subdivision with the Gallatin County Weed Department.
6. Wildlife. There are no known endangered species or species of concern which use the area
affected by this subdivision. The proposed subdivision is surrounded by City streets and is
urban in nature. There are no known critical areas located within the subdivision area.
7. Agriculture. There are no current agricultural uses within or adjacent to the subdivision area.
8. Agricultural Water User Facilities. There are no agricultural water user facilities on or adjacent
to the subdivision area.
9. Water and Sewer. The water and sanitary sewer design reports were previously approved for
all proposed dwelling units during the site plan review for the Cottages (#22324) and the
Arbor Houses (#23043). This subdivision does not propose any additional dwelling units or
uses beyond those that have been previously approved.
10. Stormwater management. The stormwater management design reports were previously
approved for the proposed development during the site plan review for the Cottages
(#22324) and the Arbor Houses (#23043). No changes to these stormwater management
plans are proposed.
11. Streets, Roads, and Alleys. There are no new public streets, roads, or alleys proposed with this
subdivision. This subdivision does not include any additional dwelling units or traffic impacts.

The public streets surrounding the subdivision have all been installed and dedicated to the
City. There is a private drive aisle that runs through the south end of the property which has a
shared-access easement attached to it as it provides access to both Lot 1A and Lot 1B.
12. Non-Municipal Utilities. The non-municipal utilities have already been installed around the
perimeter of the proposed subdivision and connection is readily available for the projects
proposed within this subdivision.
13. Land Use. The land uses within the proposed subdivision are fully known with the approved
site plan applications for the Cottages (#22324) and Arbor Houses (#23043).
14. Parks and Recreation Facilities. This subdivision does not propose any new dwelling units. The
parkland requirements have been satisfied by the Blackwood Groves Subdivision as reviewed
and approved by the review of the site plan applications for the Cottages (#22324) and Arbor
Houses (#23043).
15. Neighborhood Center Plan. The subdivision does not include a neighborhood center plan. The
neighborhood centers for the overall Blackwood Groves Subdivision were reviewed and
approved by the Master Site Plan/Preliminary Plat review of the Subdivision.
16. Lighting Plan. No additional public or private lighting is proposed with this subdivision.
17. Miscellaneous. There are no other special considerations for this subdivision – the proposal
does not effect public access to public lands, there are no known health or safety hazards on
or adjacent to the subdivision, and the property is not located within the wildlands-urban
interface.
18. Affordable Housing. The subdivision does not propose any new dwelling units and is not
subject to any affordable housing requirements.
19. Adopted Growth Policy Plan. The subdivision does not have a measurable impact on the
Growth Policy Plan as it does not include any additional dwelling units or uses beyond those
approved with the underlying Master Site Plan/Preliminary Plat and the site plan applications
for the Cottages (#22324) and the Arbor Houses (#23043).
VI. WAIVERS OF RIGHT TO PROTEST
Waivers of right to protest were filed with the underlying Blackwood Groves Subdivision.
VII. WATER RIGHTS
Cash-in-lieu of water rights (CILWR) were paid for the Block 14 Cottages (#22324) and the value of the
CILWR for the Block 14 Arbor House (#23043) is known and will be paid prior to securing building
permits for the buildings.
