Hello CDB members-
Thank you for taking the time to read the public comments and hold a very detailed and
thoughtful discussion around the Canyon Gate Preliminary Plat. I felt heard and supportedand I appreciated the validation of the public's very real concerns. I'm sure others did too.
I also appreciated the insights to city code in regards to the land contours and will look into
that more closely. The rapid loss of mature trees in Bozeman has been very concerning to meespecially in light of how important native species are for ecosystem health and how hard it is
to establish new trees of any kind in a high desert with water restrictions.
Lastly, thank you for adding the amendment for the developer to meet with the neighbors.Although it's unclear who's in charge of leading it, I hope it happens in a genuine and
productive manner. I would certainly support a check box for neighbor meetings on everyzone map amendment, preliminary plat, and site plan if that is something you can suggest in a
UDC work session.
Thank you for all your hard work,
Marcia Kaveney
