Please register my strong opposition to the development being proposed on library-
adjacent property.
The last thing that area needs is high-cost condos in a building that looks like a Howard
Johnson's and has nothing to do with serving the interests or needs of Bozeman's current
community. The green space on the plan will belong to the development, not us. And our
lovely, communal, community supported and developed green space will be truncated and
overwhelmed by a structure whose lifestyle and potential owners are out of touch with the
rest of us.
Obviously the developers did their market research about the kind of place BZN threatens
to become. That's why they're developing where they are. This project isn't about us. We
just happen to live here---and support the presence of our library, the communal green
spaces surrounding it, the easy coming-and-going ambience of that area, the comfort of
kids biking there from home, the library's outdoor summer programs that nurture and
nourish all who come.
Use your positions to stop the development of a project that doesn't serve us and whose
presence will loom over and overwhelm library and community spaciousness.
