I am very concerned about this situation. The zoning is one issue. Even more concerning is
extending Annie to a round about at the proposed Fowler Rd
Annie is a street that many children use to get to Emily Dickson Elementary School.
Attaching a road(Fowler)to Annie creates a very dangerous situation with additional traffic
and speeding cars. We are seeing numerous accidents and deaths throughout the valley
involving pedestrian involvement. Annie should remain as a child protective neighborhood
street not a dangerous freeway. If Durston or Oak are busy you can bet people will begin to
use Annie as a new"pass thru" at higher speeds. And don't bother to comment on what the
city will do to control the speeds. This situation is being ignored all over the town of
Bozeman. I mentioned this to a police person and he responded that"we just don't have
enough staff to take care of this problem. Many rather than waste money on another
unnecessary road spend the resources on more police traffic control. Over the years we have
requested some help (city calls it"traffic calming")to slow vehicles down. No luck. Just talk
Respectfully. Mike Roser.
