After reading the Chronicle article I think it might be appropriate to say how I felt with the recent handling of
projects in Bozeman (ie The Guthrie). Correct me if I am wrong but it seems to me there was far more opposition to
the Guthrie than support for it, yet the project moved forward. It felt like the commission was being influenced by
money and not considering the feelings of the citizens. I personally felt the issue of affordable housing as it relates
to the Guthrie was a joke, my 4 bedroom house close to the U rents for $1600 a month which includes all expenses
for the 2000 sq. ft. house. Allowing that project to continue is contradictory to one of the things Joey Morrison
campaigned on, affordable housing, and it insentivized the for profit developer as well. Change is inevitable but it is
also controllable, and money should not be the controlling factor. I attended and spoke at two of the meetings and
also emailed Joey, never getting a response!

Thank you,
