This can be done with a report listener using directives (read my articles on MSDN about directives on reports). The article shows one example of doing page breaks to keep information together, but you can alter the concept to be simplier and just page break when needed. Create a directive for PageBreak ... add a shape at the bottom of your footer band and use logic that checks the page number to see if a new page is needed. Then create a directive class that checks to see if the page is odd or even and fudges the height of the shape to larger than what is left on the page. That forces a page break. Then tell it not to render the shape.
