Hello!
The lot is shared now with everyone, and works well. Why can’t the public have reasonable parking?
LBC depends on local traffic, Bozeman people who want to see high quality entertainment. Removing near parking
impacts our unique and growing Bozeman-based business.
I write to urge consistent enforcement of two well-established policies in the Bozeman Municipal
Code that govern how downtown development occurs: (1) the requirement that
new projects develop parking to meet new demand, and (2) the 35-foot setback
from Bozeman Creek. Both policies were in effect when the applicant acquired the
subject property and both continue to protect the long-term health, balance, and
sustainability of Bozeman’s urban core. As a member of the Last Best Comedy community I am concerned that a
lack of adherence to these policies will negatively effect this local business.
Thanks you!
Annie OC
