Read-Only Content Full Name Royce Gorsuch Email rgsuch2@gmail.com Phone Comments Bozeman resident of 15+ years. Deeply frustrated at the Commission. The City seems to have completely sold out its long time residents to Developers to destroy our farmlands and neighborhoods - in the name of “affordable housing” - which will NEVER come to fruition because demand will never stop. New zoning is classifying my neighborhood off College to be RA - where developers can build 120’ x 120’ apartment buildings and forever destroy my neighborhood’s character. Disillusioned with City If you would like to submit additional documents (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .gif, .jpg, .png, .rtf, .txt) along with your comment, you may alternately address agenda@bozeman.net directly to ensure receipt of all information. zoning bs.rtf Thank you, City Of Bozeman This is an automated message generated by Granicus. Please do not reply directly to this email. I am writing as a frustrated Bozeman resident of 15+ years. The Bozeman City Commission seems too have completely sold out its long time residents to Developers and outside demand to destroy our farmlands and neighborhoods - in the name of “affordable housing” - which will NEVER come to fruition. New zoning plan, you’ve classified my neighborhood off College to be RA - where developers can build 120’ x 120’ apartment buildings and forever destroy my neighborhood’s character. No desirable town/city has EVER built their way to affordable housing. EVER. And you will destroy what makes this place special in your efforts to retroactively meet outside demand. The reason is - demand for the “last best place” will forever be greater than supply. So by building all these suburbs / apartment buildings on top of pristine open space farm fields, the Commission will create a city of “forever renters” whose fate will be at the whims of their rich landlords. Build your high rise apartment buildings by the freeway and industrial centers where they belong. Stop destroying open space, farmland, and neighborhoods for suburbs and apartment buildings to meet outside demand. Your longtime residents demand it.
