Dear City Commissioners and School Board Trustees,
As the parent of children attending Hawthorne school, I am concerned about the impact of a
bar serving hard alcohol during school hours across the street from my children's school. I
have to say I am also very surprised that the Taproom was allowed to go in in the first place. I
realize there are several restaurants close to Hawthorne that also serve alcohol, but a bar
directly across the street will absolutely impact the families that are at Hawthorne every day. I
expect and demand that the Bozeman School District and City Commissioners provide a safe
learning environment for my children. Allowing a bar to serve hard alcohol during school
hours within 100 feet and highly visible from classroom windows is unacceptable. Please deny
the Taproom's request to the City for a conditional use permit for a full beverage
license. Granting such a permit clearly is not in the best interest of the children or the
Bozeman community.
Truly,
Julie Collins
