Subject: Opposition to proposed Shady Glen Development Application No. 22293 and
Application No. 22294.
I am writing to ask that the Bozeman City Commission deny Shady Glen
Development Application No. 22293 and Application No. 22294. My reasons are as
follows:
(1) This proposed development has only one viable point of public access into the
subdivision, which would put public health and safety at risk during emergencies.
(2) This proposed development includes a cul-de-sac, which is the antithesis of a
well-connected community and well-planned neighborhood.
(3) Finally, to reiterate what I wrote in my opposition letter dated March 6, 2023,
(https://weblink.bozeman.net/WebLink/DocView.aspx?
id=273249&dbid=0&repo=BOZEMAN), the developer is asking to “relax” the required
amount of wetland setback from 50 feet to 35 feet, which in the long-term will result in
the severe ecological degradation of the existing wetland and its associated Montana
native flora and fauna.
