Hello,
I am fortunate to be a homeowner downtown and I love my 15-minute neighborhood. I would love for towns and cities to be structured in a 15-minute neighborhood style and
layout.
I believe Bozeman's problem is the surrounding suburban residential neighborhoods. These neighborhoods require cars to not only enter the core of Bozeman but to get to daily
necessities such as gas stations and grocery stores. As long at Bozeman's proposed zoning changes are focused on the core while excluding
the surrounding zone-restricted neighborhoods, the problem just gets worse. Bozeman needs to halt the proposed core-focused zoning changes and re-think how to apply the 15-
minute neighborhood concept to the entire metro area.
I understand many of these subdivisions are in the county but the entire valley needs to adopt this neighborhood concept.
