We are writing in opposition to the City’s proposal to expend roughly $16 million on widening Kagy.
Encouraging more traffic runs contrary to the City’s expressed interest in addressing the sources of climate
change. If the City has $16 million to expend here, please consider ways to time traffic lights and to
improve/add bike lanes along Kagy and elsewhere in the community. Adding more asphalt, more lanes of
traffic, and more cars on roadways doesn’t augur well for Bozeman’s expressed environmental ideals and
principles (which we support and encourage you to pass in the form of the City's Climate Plan), to say
nothing of the town’s commitment to a healthy environment. Furthermore, if you make Kagy a four-lane
road, speeds will increase, attention to pedestrians, wildlife, and pets will decrease, and that area of town
will become less livable and no longer part of a neighborhood. It’ll be a throughway next to which no one
wants to live.
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
