City of Bozeman Commissioners and Staff, I want to express my concerns that the proposed City Budget
underinvests in affordable housing. Bozeman's housing shortage -- already dire enough -- requires maximum
funding to ensure that future affordable housing projects, such as proposed Rocky Mountain Flats, are viable to
develop. Greater funding will also be necessary to ensure that existing projects like Bridger Heights are preserved.
As it stands, Bridger Heights, Hidden Creek, and Rocky Mountain Flats collectively require an additional $1.5 - 2
million. Doubling the city's investment in affordable housing would allow for the development of an additional
affordable project each year. I believe the city should be doing the maximum possible to house all of our neighbors.
Thank you, Eliza Donahue
