Read-Only Content Full Name Erin Jones Email erinharperjones@gmail.com Phone (918) 344-3599 Comments Hello! My name is Erin. I'm a second-year student at Montana State, studying professional chemistry. I am also very invested in the environment, especially in the beautiful place we get to live in. I have been reading here and there about the Urban Forestry Management Plan and wanted to know more about what I can do to support their initiative. In their management plan document, they frequently stress needing to make this project as cost-effective as possible. I'm wondering, why does there not seem to be enough funding for this project? I am concerned about the city sprawl in Bozeman and feel passionately that planting more trees in urban environments can do a lot to build community, combat climate change, decrease the negative impacts of rapid development, and make a more beautiful and environmentally friendly city. Why, then, is the project not being adaquately funded? And if this project has been active since 2016, where are the trees in my neighborhood?
