The Board also recognizes the statutory and constitutional rights of the public to participate in governmental operations. To allow fair and orderly expression of public comments, the Board will permit public participation through oral or written comments during the “public comment” section of the Board agenda and prior to a final decision on a matter of significant interest to the public. The Chairperson may control such comment to ensure an orderly progression of the meeting. Individuals wishing to be heard by the Chairperson shall first be recognized by the Chairperson. Individuals, after identifying themselves, will proceed to make comments as briefly as the subject permits. The Chairperson may interrupt or terminate an individual’s statement when appropriate, including when statements are out of order, too lengthy, personally directed, abusive, obscene, or irrelevant. The Board as a whole shall have the final decision in determining the appropriateness of all such rulings. It is important for all participants to remember that Board meetings are held in public but are not public meetings. Members of the public shall be recognized and allowed input during the meeting, at the discretion of the Chairperson.

Mary Martin had expressed interest in seeing the draft. Will you please share this with the school board, superintendent Keel, etc. as you see fit for their – and your – review? While we have been careful in our research, we welcome any data corrections. We plan to submit the form to the State Historic Preservation Office by Monday, January 18, 2021 and hope that gives you all enough time to review it. I’m also attaching some basic historic preservation information about standards used industry-wide for designing with and around historic properties. This should help the design team as they move forward with their design. Thanks for facilitating, etc. – and for having Fraulein provide us with scans of historic documents. That information was immensely helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. Lesley M. Gilmore, AIA 180 N.

Long Company/City/State: Bozeman, MT Source of Information: SD No. 35 Board of Trustees Minutes, 25 Feb. 1915 Setting Gallatin Gateway School presents a series of four connected facades that face north towards Mill Street in Gallatin Gateway. A fifth wing that extends south of the original building is not visible from the street. The school is the town’s most prominent building, highly visible upon the Mill Street entry into town. The rambling school is located on the south side of the street, across from the Gallatin Gateway Community Center. The building portions, drives, and landscaped areas navigate a site the slopes down from the north and east. Drives from Mill Street provide vehicular access to parking at the west and southeast sides of the building. An L-shaped paved parking lot wraps the north and west sides of the furthest west wing. A service drive slopes down from Mill Street past the east side of the gym wing, leading to a triangular paved area at the rear of the building. This paved lot contains some parking spaces, provides access to the kitchen wing, and receives exiting from the classrooms and shower rooms at the south side of the gym wing. The east entry drive and parking area are enclosed with chain link fencing which is cordoned off with a gate at the entry. A 410-foot-long by 140-foot-wide portion of land extends west of this southeast parking area, with the east half dedicated to green space and playing fields and the west portion filled with playground equipment and a basketball court. This 1.32-acre area south of the school is reserved for public recreation under the auspices of the federal LWCF (Land Water Conservation Fund) program. Chain link fencing defines the north and west lot lines of the play area; gates complete the enclosure. A wood post and wire mesh fence along the south lot line separates the play area from the private agricultural property to the south. Heritage cottonwood trees, just south of the wood fence, provide the site with some shade. An asphalt sidewalk borders the perimeter of this recreational area of the property; it melds into the southeast parking area. A wood rail fence and metal shed separate the play area from this southeast parking lot. The building’s two north entries and west exit are accessed by a concrete sidewalk that is contoured to contain the angled parking spots immediately north of the 2002 wing. The unpaved areas of the site are planted with grasses, supplemented with intermittent trees and plantings. A row of bushes softens the hill north of the gymnasium wing, while also acting as a natural barrier at the steep slope up to the road. Each – 1915 and 2002 – entry is marked with a spruce tree. Additional plantings soften the concrete patio that fronts the 2002 entry. Fixed metal benches provide a waiting area by the drop-off zone. The west exit porch of the 2002 wing is flanked with fruiting deciduous trees, balanced with evergreen bushes and groundcover.
