My husband and I have lived here a few 6 short years and have seen incredible changes to this
area, some good and some bad. What we are seeing that stands out most is the gobbling up ofthe farm land surrounding Bozeman with apartment building after apartment building. Few
developments with starter homes with green areas. There has to be a better way. The triangleof Four Corners, Belgrade, and Bozeman need to work together to ensure a more entwined
relationship to help with the affordable housing issues. The transportation issue needs to beaddressed to help move worker bees from outlying areas that are more affordable, to the
community. We need to preserve the quaintness of the city of Bozeman and we need to ensurethat we don't spoil the area due to massive number of people who want to live here. At some
point we need to stand up for what is important to retain this beautiful space.
