City Commissioners, Planners, and Staff members -
It is time we listen to the voice of the community. Project after project the local residents of
Bozeman present to you well researched and detailed presentations how to better serve thecommunity when it comes to planning for appropriate growth and expansion. Time and time
again the local voices are ignored by you.
In an attempt to protect the surrounding geography, many of you have fallen back on themantra, "Infill, not sprawl". This is NOT a license for the aggressive infill results we now
suffer through. PLEASE FOLLOW THE NCOD.
The rules of the NCOD have been consistently disregarded and brushed aside by city staff andundermined by developers like Home Base Partners who are more interested in ROI.
The Guthrie offers you another opportunity to do the right thing. Please follow the NCOD as
outlined and turn down the request by Home Base Partners.
Thank you,
Brad Bates1362 Boylan Rd
