Email: agenda@bozeman.net Mail to: Attn: City Commission PO Box 1230 Bozeman, MT 59771 First Name Joe Last Name Zaichkin Email Address cascadejz@gmail.com Phone Number 2532297308 Comments Dear City Commission, I don't want to create an account with the city of Bozeman. Parking services seem to be an easy way to collect extra revenue from unsuspecting visitors/shoppers. If Parking Services can send me a photo of my license plate for an "overtime parking citation", why can't they just send me a bill and not a threatening, intimidating, letter demanding urgent payment within 3 days or else? It seems the City of Bozeman Parking Services knows about the only, outdated, parking kiosk that is difficult to understand in the city parking garage. I'm certainly not the only unsuspecting shopper to be caught in this revenue trap as the staff in the department is too busy to answer or return calls. I was told by the clerk there is a staffing shortage in the Parking Services Department. I can only suspect it's because of many confused, out-of-state shoppers like me not understanding or being able to use the single, unsecured, kiosk. We travel to Bozeman 4-5 times each year to see our grandchildren and shop downtown. I choose to park in this garage because it has the only disabled parking I know of downtown. Please update your disabled parking page on your city website and please update and add more secure and easy-to-use kiosks. I choose where to shop and eat. Sincerely, Joe Zaichkin 253-229-7308 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.
