Please note my continued objection to these seemingly endless property tax increases.
In the face of these double-digit increases in tax burdens, average people - who, if they are
*lucky* have received at most a single 2-3% COLA raise over the past few years - will bedriven out of Bozeman. I guess the good news for the Commission is that your future meetings
will be a lot less contentious because you will have effectively silenced people like me, byhelping to ensure I can no longer afford to live here. Instead, you will be surrounded by
people who live here, but earn their money elsewhere.
Congratulations and thanks in advance for making Bozeman unlivable for the average personwho works here.
Sincerely,
April R. Callahan717 N. Rouse Ave.
