Dear Community Development Board,
I attended the meeting this evening and chose not speak to give others a chance as I spoke last
meeting and submitted comments via email as well. I have more comments.
The more I learn about the plan, listen to the revisions, the more I realize that we need to start over.Start completely over. The current plan will destroy Bozeman, will not provide affordable housing,and will stress our infrastructure past its capacity, only to have to be picked up by the taxpayerswhile the developers have their heyday. Do not pass the Unified Development Code (UDC).Recommend to the City Commission to say NO to the UDC. The public does not want it. It is a badidea. Listen to the people of Bozeman, not the developers. Start over with homegrown talent and acollaborative process.
Best,
Danielle Nicholas
