Downtown Bozeman used to be one of my favorite places. I'd start at the courthouse, walk all the way
down, cross the street to what used to be Heeb's and walk all the way back.. What a lovely energy
downtown Bozeman used to have. These days, oh. my. goodness. When I CAN find a parking place, I'll see
my local optical place - who says the reason for all the changes is that "they" are DENSIFYING. I can only
assume you are "they." I can only assume the reason you are doing this is to change Bozeman for the
better, AND because more than half of Bozemanites actually WANT their Bozeman to change. Because I can
usually NOT find a parking place, and because I have to walk for blocks and blocks (carrying my sewing
machine in for repairs) my sewing machine will sit in the closet for I don't know how long. The downtown
Bozeman feeling is SO GONE. I don't even like going anywhere near it anymore. I am a native Montanan,
and after living in southern California for 30 years, let me clue you in... DENSIFYING never turns out pretty.
No Bozemanite I've spoken to is happy about the changes you are making. Mystifies me as to the trajectory
you have taken my once-charming downtown Bozeman. No reply necessary. What's done is done. At least I
have north 19th for a while.
If you would like to submit additional documents (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .gif, .jpg, .png, .rtf, .txt)
along with your comment, you may alternately address agenda@bozeman.net directly to ensure
receipt of all information.
Thank you,
City Of Bozeman
