Hi. I am writing to ask the City of Bozeman to coordinate with MDOT to prevent the loss of the
mature trees at the intersection of N. 7th and Peach St.
Although MDOT may be the driving force behind the proposed removal of these trees, I think
the City needs to stand up for what is environmentally responsible by issuing a press release
that the loss of these tress is not acceptable and, as such, the design needs to be re-worked.
Thank you for considering this request.

regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we
belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect."
