Dear Director Sexton:
The City of Bozeman strongly supports the application to your office by the Gallatin Local Water Quality District for
Bozeman Creek planning study. Bozeman Creek's waters flow within 10 feet of City Hall and under our historic
downtown district.
Historically, the community has not been kind to Bozeman Creek, to the fullest extent possible. The creek has been
constricted, constrained and hidden from view. GLWQD's proposal for a planning study is an excellent first step
towards the healing and restoration of Bozeman Creek.
Sincerely,
Chris Kukulski
City Manager
