Zoning Commission Members:
I am writing as a Bridger Creek Phase 1 resident on Par Ct. and requesting you
vote against Home Base Partners’s development plan for Canyon Gate.
Approving a high density development in an area without proper infrastructureincluding reasonable access to full emergency medical support is alarming and
reckless.
Seemingly, the Canyon Gate Plan is based on a transportation study from 2017. Ifthis is the most recent study we have, there is desperate need to reassess. Things
have changed drastically in Bozeman since 2017 and the data in that study isseverly out of date. As Bozeman has significantly grown in population over the
past four years so has the need to explore a current transportation study for theareas of Bridger Drive, Story Mill, Rouse and Griffin streets.
I support annexing this property for park space due to daily wildlife use and someR3 residential but anything more is overkill. Please look to the neighboring
Legends development as an example of proper zoning to allow reasonable trafficflow, safety, open space and area resident quality of life.
Canyon Gate in its current proposal as mainly luxury condos would do little to
help the growing issue of creating affordable housing to help support strugglingarea businesses in their need to hire workers who can afford to live here
Please vote against Home Base Partners’s development plan for Canyon Gate.This is not the right place for high density development as the data is either
incomplete or clearly doesnt support this approval.
Thank you for your consideration,
