Re: Application 21479 - Autumn Grove Condominiums
To Whom it may concern:
I am writing regarding the Application: 21479 and the current advancements in theAutumn Grove Condominiums site planning as it commences. As current residentsof the West Winds neighborhood, many concerns have arisen in conjunction with
the viability of this area. These proceedings include but are not limited to:
● Public safety traffic incidentals.● Parking.● Accessible green spaces.
● Liability of a higher renter population.
Intending to increase the number of residents of this neighborhood raisesunsettlement as this leads to a higher chance of speeding traffic. While this variable
is guaranteed, the safety of children and other residents should be an utmost
priority. We are requesting a thorough traffic study to be conducted on Windward
Ave, Autumn Grove St, Tschache Lane, and Spring View Ct.
With roadways in consideration, automobile parking on-site plan application
#21479 insinuates there will be approximately 205 designated parking spots.
Current residents are wary if theseguaranteed spots are separate entities to the roadway as there is already a persistent
struggle for space on the road. Lastly, will parking be enforced by the HOA or the
City of Bozeman?
Furthermore, as this city expands and grows, the inclusion of sustainable
development is crucial to biodiversity and recreational purposes. The Parks
Department and the City of Bozeman
approved cash in lieu of a park from the Owner-TruNorth Properties. How will theOwner-TruNorth Properties utilize this space instead of green space?
Lastly, the variance of the renter to owner occupancy is concerning to our fellow
residents. A higher renter occupancy ensures the deterioration of the neighborhood.I would like a limitation on the percentage of renters because of concern of the
integrity of the neighborhood and would rather have more owner occupancy thanrenters.
