Hello City Commissioner’s of Bozeman,
I recently moved to the wonderful town of Bozeman, and live in the Sundance of Baxter Meadows apartments. My
fiancé and I moved here to enjoy the beautiful scenery and outdoor activities that this town offers. However, we
were not aware that our view of the mountains would be partially blocked by 24 different mobile homes/campers.
Not only is the scenery blocked but there are generators running day and night. There is also garbage in the streets
and wetlands near us. While we are sensitive to those who are not housed, it is unfair to us who pay nearly $2,000 in
rent as they live here nearly for free. As a productive Citizen of Bozeman, I am strongly of this ordinance passing as
this is not the Bozeman we expected to call home.
Sincerely,
Stewart Hofer
