Good afternoon,
I am writing to address the development off of Highland, Planning File number 24-118.
This space is currently used daily by walkers, runners, bikers, and dog walkers to connect
Peet's Hill with Painted Hills or neighborhoods to Peet's Hill and Main Street.
I love running these trails as I can get great mountain views, lots of miles, and see many of myneighbors without having to drive out of town to appreciate the beauty of Bozeman.
These trails are where I learned to classic ski, taught by a friend I met in town. Which is
exactly what the area and trails are intended for: building friendships and developing a newrelationship with the land. Open space and parks are part of what makes the city of Bozeman
and its community so wonderful to live in.
My heart dropped when I saw the development notice sign. While I understand the city isgrowing, I hate for us to lose such a well used and well loved recreation area to development.
Please consider asking for a new proposed use of the land that maintains more park space.
Thank you for your time,
--
