Dear Ms. Hyde
My name is John Cox. My wife Donna and I live at 4203 Palisade Drive . We are located directly south and adjacent to the project proposed in Application 21-235. This
represents our written testimony about the Six Range Condos proposal.
Even though we are within 200 feet of of the property, we as yet have not received any writtennotification of this development from the Project Management. Fortunately, our Condo
Association has done a good job of keeping us up to date on the proposal and concerns / issuesfrom a property owners perspective. We are in agreement with their communications to you
on this matter.
Our three top concerns are as follows:
1. The proposed Six Range Condos will overwhelm my existing condo and the surroundingneighborhood. With buildings that are 4 stories high with added rooftop facilities, it will be the
highest residential building our area. Our Bozeman Community Plan, states on Page 20 that"The needs of new and existing development coexist and they should remain in balance;
neither should overwhelm the other." This proposed development will clearly overwhelm mydevelopment, my condo,and my neighborhood, in height, design and color.
2. Light and noise pollution from the project will be unacceptable. Four story residences with
rooftop activities, will spread and noise throughout the neighborhood. The parking lot wilcause unacceptable noise and light directly into my residence. A berm or appropriate screening
trees should be provided. The trees included in the proposal are deciduous and are notsufficient.
3. Garbage facilities are directly behind my residence and could result in odors and unhealthy
situations. The garbage facilities should be relocated away from residential buildings.
In summary, from our perspective, as adjacent residents, is that the Six Range Condos projectdoes not meet the City Standards of "not overwhelming existing development" (i.e. there are
no other 4+ story buildings in this neighborhood). Also, the Six Range Condos project willsurely drop the desirability of our property with resulting drop in our property value.
Thank you for your consideration of this testimony.
Sincerely
John and Donna Cox
