To whom it may concern:
I reside in South Bozeman adjacent to Sundance Springs, and I'm writing
to express my opposition to the proposed Sundance Springs CommercialDevelopment, site plan number 22047.
While I accept that commercial development on this site is inevitable, I
oppose the nature of the proposed development, as well as the requesteddepartures from laws describing the City's block frontage standards. One
of the best things about our neighborhood is the quiet, tranquil open space
and the trails established by the Sundance Springs PUD. So, it's puzzling
why a developer would design a project that would so clearly violate thecharacter of our residential neighborhood. Even more puzzling is that the
City Commission could consider a plan that is so incongruent with the
surroundings.
I urge the City commission to discard the current proposal in favor of a
development that is complementary to our peaceful residential
neighborhood. There are any number of commercial developments that
would fit more appropriately in our neighborhood, and that would notdegrade the surroundings or impose insults such as noise, odors, and
increased traffic.
Thank you for listening and for your consideration.
Lisa
