Hello:
I am a resident of Meadow Creek and want to express my opposition to the annexation and zoning
designation R4 for the proposed Buffalo Run project located at 5400 Fowler Lane.
The intent of R4 zoning was to be used for designation in areas closer to downtown or other more densely
populated urban areas where infrastructure, transportation and utilities could support a high-density
development. The location of Buffalo Run is at the outskirts of town, in a rural farmland location and does
not meet these requirements. R-4 Zoning for the project is not consistent Bozeman’s approved future land
use map or the intended use of R-4 of Zoning. This is not compatible growth for this area.
The developer also plans to use Kruk Drive as one access point to the development. The additional traffic
introduced on Kurk Ave plus the widening of 27th will pose a safety hazard to residents living on streets
that are designed for low density housing. Our community is already being built out and all streets in the
area are at or nearing their design capacity. The development will tax water and sewer infrastructure not
designed for the addition of a high-density development at the furthest border of Meadow Creek.
Please do not let this parcel be annexed and zoned R4. If annexation is made it, should be low density
development which is compatible with both Bozeman’s Community Plan and the lot location.
Sincerely,
Gary Mathews
