To whom it may concern:
I recently got a flyer taped to my door urging me to attend the public meeting on October 10th and voice
my opposition to the proposed zoning change.
Instead I would like to voice my support for the Bozeman planning department. I trust they know what
they are doing and likely have a lot of combined expertise in this area. I am sure this decision was not
made lightly and there is a solid reasoning behind it.
Having high density housing makes complete sense to me. My house is on the edge of R-2 and R-4
zoning, so there is a possibility more apartment buildings will go up on the other side of the street. This is
not an nimby reaction.
What is happening now in my vicinity is regular sized houses are being torn down and oversized luxury
duplexes (house + ADU) are going up which sell for several millions a piece. That is NOT a solution to
our affordability crisis.
Thank you,
Stefanie Vandaele
