Dickerson - Fowler Ave Oak st to HuffineFrom:Patty Dickerson To:Agenda Subject:Fowler Ave Oak st to Huffine Date:Thursday, July 21, 2022 9:44:21 PM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. I oppose the Fowler Ave Connection road project for several valid reasons. This is a much needed green space. It supports wildlife and a variety of birds, including migratory birds Taking down all of the trees and adding pavement will increase the temperature in this area substantially This is an important ecological area that supports native plants, which was pointed in a study done by a Bozeman based environmental consulting firm This is a school corridor where children pass through to get to 4 different schools. A trail system would benefit this area and connect the 100 acre park to the Bozeman Pond Park and dog park. Bozeman used to have an emphasis on biking and walking through this town. That philosophy seems to have changed with your rapid expansion plans that only benefits business and not the people living in this town. I have yet to see a current environmental impact study done by the city. After polling several residents on Sheridan and New Holland, I discovered that they do not want the Fowler Connection road to go through. Please halt this project now!
