Site work and new construction of a water / sewer project in Bozeman, Montana. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a water / sewer project; and for site work for a water / sewer project.

The Gooch Hill Lift Station is defined in the City's Wastewater Collection Facilities Plan to serve the northwestern and western edge of the City. Two potential developments are looking to annex into the City. One property is 160 acres at the northwest corner of Baxter and Cottonwood. The Second development is approximately 430 acres north of Cottonwood and west of Harper Pucket Road. Both properties need the Gooch Hill Lift Station in order to provide sanitary sewer service to the area. Both developers will need to provide up-front capital funding to fund the project in addition to potential funding from the City's impact fee program with potential reimbursement via impact fee credits. The proposed costs provide one of two phases to construct the Gooch Hill Lift Station to reduce up-front costs. The Gooch Hill Lift Station will also open sanitary sewer service to many properties along the western boundary of the City. As of January 6, 2025, this project is included in the city's 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
