Email: agenda@bozeman.net Mail to: Attn: City Commission PO Box 1230 Bozeman, MT 59771 First Name Eleanora Last Name Howard Email Address nh@baroquebobcat.com Phone Number 4065349668 Comments I would like to make a comment in favor of Chris Coburn. - In this time, when our city is dealing with COVID, adding a public health expert to the commission just makes sense. - A big part of a City Commissioner's job is listening to folks in the community to better understand their needs. Chris shows up to community events and is engaged with many organizations and non-profits in town. I think showing up, and having and maintaining those kind of relationships are important things for a City Commissioner to do in order to understand what our community needs and actively respond to it. - Bozeman has never had a Black City Commissioner. Representation matters. I want my kid to grow up in a city where local leadership includes folks from _all_ of the communities that live here. I also think it would be invaluable to have someone who can speak to the experiences of racism in our town on the commission. -- Eleanora 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.
