like to support and participate in that effort My family lives in a circa l900 home that we are slowly restoring As we are a low income family there are many challenges but it is very important to us to take proper care ofthe venerable old girl Bozeman also has challenges as the city grows and changes but we must work to preserve the distinctive character that makes Bozeman a fine place to live work and visit I have extensive experience in nonprofit and community organizations and an interest in period architecture and restoration 1 think it is important for the city to work with homeowners
