Message: City Commission of Bozeman, Regarding the issue of CUP and alcohol use with
permit on the Bozeman Hotel premises, I would like to go against the proposition. I feel that
alcohol consumption and sale would lead to violence because alcohol use affects the ability to
reason. Hotels should be a safe place for people to rest on vacation or trip, and alcohol
consumption on premises could lead to people under the influence endangering that sense of safety. If a person staying at the hotel was able to bye or use alcohol, they could make poor
decisions, and potentially hold the hotel guilty for their actions, therefor being detrimental to the
service and successfulness of the hotel. Also under the regulations that the current Alcohol
permit distribution in the premises would have to spend time and money to get new permits that
suite the new place where SobeyĆ was is an un-needed spans of time for more potential dangers and felonies.The expansion of alcohol distribution would increase profit, but it presents some
dangers that don need to be there. Many other places offer drink in a much more stable and safe
environment, so I don feel that adding an alcohol distribution place next to the hotel would be
worth the risks.
