To the Director of Community Planning and Development:
I am writing to ask the City to approve the Etha Hotel in its current form with NO changes to the equipment,
screening or lighting. I am frustrated that in this moment, when so much challenge lies before us, when so many
jobs have been lost to the pandemic, that this project would be put in jeopardy.
As I previously stated on 2/17/20, the hotel owners went to great lengths to preserve a dilapidated, vacant, historic
landmark while adding a new venue and over 150 jobs for our community. To force the hotel to de-construct what
has already been built is unfair, untenable, not economically feasible, wasteful and just plain absurd.
The hotel owners constructed what they were legally entitled to construct, using plans that were “approved for
construction” by the City of Bozeman in 2015. It is now time to set this project free, without further delay or
expense. Thank you for your consideration.
