I am asking you to vote NO on ordinance 2149. I do NOT agree with banning legal, permitted STR's. I think they are a
necessity to the community. The legal STR's are not impacting housing issues in Bozeman. The houses will not be
converted to long term affordable housing. They will sit empty. These home owners are not going to offer their
homes at a discounted affordable rate to people who need housing. Affordable housing and legal STR's are two
separate issues. The city's conducted an impact study that determined STR's did not have a negative impact. I ask
that you listen to your own study and vote to save legal short term rentals. Legal, permitted STR's have followed the
regulations that the city implemented. It seems the real problem is the cities failure to implement regulation over
the illegal STR's. In addition, it will be depriving property owners of vested property rights through a retroactive or
ex post facto law opening the city up to costly and expensive litigation.
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.
Thank you,
City Of Bozeman
