Honorable Mayor Jeff Krauss
City commissioners
121 N. Rouse Ave
Bozeman, MT 58715
Dear Mayor and Commissioners,
I would like to take this opportunity to urge the city commission to raise the TBID assessment
from the current $1.00 to $2.00.
This increase will do much in giving Bozeman equal footing with other competitive cities in
Montana. Other communities such as Missoula and Billings have already raised to the $2.00 level
and are looking at additional increases.
We have had Great success over the past years with marketing Bozeman with segments such as
sporting tournaments, special events and conferences. We are anxious to start a new unified
branding effort for Bozeman.
Please give this increase strong consideration.
Sincerely,
Carl Solvie
TBID Board Member
