City Council,
Please do not let the Guthrie development move forward without making substantial changes to both
parking and family units.
1. Parking is always an issue in Bozeman and since we know it is an issue you need to address it before
construction starts. More parking is needed. We know that so address it.
2. This is not affordable housing for families. I worked a Whittier school for 30 years and have lived in
Bozeman for 41 years. I have seen the changes (both good and bad) that we have experienced. I have
had many students who live in poor housing, no housing, or in a camper. These citizens who are trying to
scrap by in Bozeman need family housing. This is not family housing.
3. Since Whittier is only a block away are the residents screened for criminal backgrounds (sexual crimes
involving minors)?
4. Lastly, this project needs to change so we can have REAL affordable housing for FAMILIES and not
have another neighborhood where is no where to be found.
Thank you,
Gary Cunningham
