Taylor Lonsdale and Dani Hess:
Thank you for taking time to talk with me at yesterday's (6-29-22) Fowler Ave Connection (FAC)
open house.
Below is a link to the 2001 scientific study titled "Habitat and Wetland Assessment: Section
Line Ditch Corridor, Bozeman, MT," which over 20 years ago established the important
ecological value of this now 122-year-old (circa 1900) greenspace corridor to Bozeman and
Gallatin County. Obviously, much of the ecological value of this corridor would be degraded or
destroyed if any of the current FAC project options were to be built.
Immediately, please disseminate this report to the City Commissioners, all other City staff
involved with the FAC project, and all FAC project contractors. Finally, please make this study
an integral part of the FAC project decision-making process from this point forward.
