Bozeman City Commissioners:
I do not support the Urban Camping Ordinance as a Consent Item in the upcoming Commission
meeting. As a community member, I would like to see this consent item either voted down or
delayed.
Ordinance 2147 is an unwelcomed, unrepresentative ordinance that will worsen an existing problem
I believe that this ordinance places an undue burden on residents and businesses in the Bozeman
community. I feel strongly that this ordinance serves only as a detriment to the health, well-being,
and vibrancy of our community and culture.
The current parking policy, if properly enforced, is a great tool to handle urban camping until a more
thorough ordinance is proposed. I ask that you and your fellow commission members vote down this
ordinance so that the city manager and assistant city managers can draft an ordinance that provides
clear-cut, substantive language to comprehensively regulate urban camping and protect the safety
of our community’s residents and businesses.
Once again, I urge you to vote down or delay Ordinance 2147.
Thank you,
Melissa Ross
