Dear Affordable Housing, Planning and Zoning Boards,
I was on line for the discussion on affordable housing issues with the Clarion consultants on April 26. It was
extremely interesting. I am a member of the Historic Preservation Board, but I am speaking for myself in
this comment. I was wondering if the Historic Preservation Board should be included in the group
discussion. I heard Mr. Pape suggest completely eliminating the NCOD, which was a major project of the
Historic Preservation Board. I also understood that there might be zoning changes to allow for different
types of new construction within the city, and can only assume that this would include the NCOD which
contains many of the various historic districts. As a community member, I would very much like to see more
affordable housing in the city, and if the NCOD could be involved in the increase in affordable housing it
would substantially help the effort. The question is, how could the NCOD be involved? Mr. Elliot mentioned
that the city will never build its way out of the housing crisis. He feels that the way to achieve housing
equity is to use the existing inventory of housing to create affordability. Could the Historical Preservation
Board be involved in this process in any way? I thank you all for any suggestions you might have.
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
