This note is to comment on the Draft Community Plan Future Land Use. Specifically, the commercial developmentbetween W. Graf Street and Goldenstein Land and east of 19th Ave. I strongly oppose of the following:• the RDMU use designation behind Sacajawea Middle School• The Industrial use designation south of the RDMU designation.I am strongly opposed those proposed designations because the changes would change the whole nature of the area.We purchased our home 13 years ago in Westfield subdivision with the understanding that the area around thesubdivision and to the west out to 19th street would be residential. We want the quiet. We want it to be safe forwalking and especially bicycling in the area south of us. We wanted the low traffic We wanted the dark sky. All ofthe likeable qualities will be destroyed with the proposed changes.
Bottom line, once again, Bozeman is trying to bait and switch. Here is a nice residential area. Let’s change it. Thatbait and switch is ethically wrong.
If we must compromise, I would not oppose RDMU right along 19th only – 1 to 2 blocks wide. But residential onlyall around the middle school. NO INDUSTRY. If you want industry, put it West of 19th an already busy street oralong North 7th or Huffline.
