Dear City Commission
The Bozeman Landmark Program Policy Conservations should include protections for
trees, other natural features, and environmental spaces.
HPAB’s visionary Cultural Landscape/Heritage Tree Program should be included in the
Bozeman Landmark Program.
Meaningful and enforceable tree protections should be codified in Bozeman’s municipal
codes, including those pertaining to historic preservation.

Dear City Commission, here's my comment on the NCOD
limit the use of the incentives to greenfield development and parcels fronting
major arterials
limit the use of the incentives to projects proposed by non profit developers
amend the ordinance to include a NOAH preservation clause
replace the existing ordinance with an Affordable Housing Overlay Zone as
described in a BBC/DSA joint presentation
revise the affordability requirements in the ordinance to better suit the needs
of workers in Bozeman
Include some minimum square footage requirements and clarifications around
what constitutes a studio or a 1 bedroom, so that renters don’t end up paying
extortionist rates for postage stamp rooms
