Dear City Commissioners,
We am very concerned about the urban camping situation in Bozeman. Living north of townwe drive through or past those encampments routinely and notice how they seem to be
increasing each time we go by. Some of the units look rather "permanent". Reading recently,just for example, about the huge problem currently in Casper, WY, it becomes evident that
without some effective regulation for this situation, it will rapidly deteriorate and becometotally dangerous and untenable.
Please activate some clear and ENFORCIBLE restrictions without which the problem will notgo away! I believe a lot of the valley residents are in agreement as they fear the results if
nothing is put in place.Thank you for your attention and resolution of this matter .
