ATTN: Chris Saunders
PO BOX 1230
Bozeman, MT 59771-1230
To the Dept of Community Development and Chris Saunders regarding Application
20112:
1 am writing you to object to proposed rezoning, development and annexation of the
20.79 acres directly adjacent to my two 40 acre parcels along Fowler between Fowler,
Kurk and 27th. (Application 20112).
1 am the sole owner of the property/parcels of land directly to the north and Northeast of
the proposed development.
My 2 parcels are legally described as:
S23 T02 S R05 E, C.O.S. 1861 Tract A NE4SW4 40.773AC 06-0798-23-3-01-50-0000
S23 T02 S R05 E, C.O.S. Tract 1 Section 23 2S 5E 40.735AC COS 2074 06-0798-23-
3-01-10-0000
1 realize that development in the Bozeman area is inevitable. In fact, I have complied
with THREE past requests for city easements and with developers on 3 sides of my
property (along my entire east border and parts of my northern and southern borders.)
But I strongly object to the proposal to rezone this new 20+ acre development in a
rural property area to an R-5 residential mixed-use high density district by this out-
of-state developer when the surrounding area is still rural and the developments nearby
are all single family homes.
Not only will this be life changing for me and my neighbors, it affects my livelihood in
that I farm my 80 acres, run cattle on it and hay it. This type of zoning is not appropriate
for this part of Bozeman and does not exist there now.
Because of mail delays and COVID issues, I have also sent this objection in an email
form (on Jan 7 to agenda@bozeman.net and Chris Saunders) for the attention of the
commission and commissioners in the event that this letter does not arrive by the Jan
11 th date.
Greatly concerned,
Diane L. Brawner, Adjacent Property Owner
