Email: agenda@bozeman.net Mail to: Attn: City Commission PO Box 1230 Bozeman, MT 59771 First Name Jeanne Last Name Wagner Email Address jeanne.wagner.mt@gmail.com Phone Number 4066001364 Comments Dear Commissioners: I am writing to you concerning the plan for redevelopment of the old Bozeman Deaconess Hospital on Lamme St. The word is that the developer would like to raze the building and build something new in its place. How unfortunate this would be for Bozeman. So many of our community have been born and died in that hospital. It is a part of the history of all of us here. Why should this building be replaced with yet another mid-rise box? Bozeman, and particularly that part of town is wall-to-wall with them already. Those buildings are very much of the moment and one wonders how they will look to the next generation. Could the old hospital not be repurposed for housing? I know that would not create the income hoped for by the developer, but could still be used for exclusive housing if that is what is needed. Bozeman has come to feel like my favorite holiday movie; it’s as if George Bailey were never born and our town has turned into Hollaranville. Sincerely, Jeanne Wagner 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.
