To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to express my opposition to the rezoning of Bozeman’s Southeast Quadrant and Bozeman’s SouthwestQuadrant, between W. Graf and Goldenstein Lane.
I am concerned about changing this acreage from a residential to a commercial and industrial zones.
We residents of the Southside of Bozeman enjoy our neighborhoods and parks. We enjoy our quiet trails and ourtime away from the commercial areas of Bozeman. It is why I live on the Southside of Bozeman.
Bringing commercial buildings will change the entire character of the neighborhoods. There are many areas ofBozeman that already have restaurants, gym space, office space and community living. Creating new areas ofcommerce will only take away from our bustling Downtown Bozeman. Keep the commercialism where it hasalready been established and zoned for.
If the City of Bozeman has disregard for current zoning plans, what is the point of making any plans regarding anyof the neighborhoods or areas of Bozeman. If the city is able to change any law for its own profitable gain, why dowe set for any development plans?
I urge the City of Bozeman to do the right thing and keep zoning areas as they are originally designated, residentialin nature, contributing to the landscape that is already created.
Please do the right thing.
Sincerely,Kristy JohnsWestfield Park Resident
