Preserve Our Path

For years we have walked our dog, met neighbors, viewed wildlife, and enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the Cascade Neighborhood Walking Path. Our family has walked the dog to the ponds, taken trips to the mall and grocery store, as well as the ball fields. We've had pheasant, owls, deer, bear, and multitudes of other wildlife in our backyard and on the path.

The city's 2020 Climate Action Plan shows that vehicles are the largest single-source contributor of carbon emissions in Bozeman (38%) and calls for an increase in walking and biking.

Also, the 2020 Community Plan's N-1 goal focuses on walkable neighborhoods and M-1 & M-2 focus on multimodal accessibility and safety.

If a thoroughfare must be provided using Fowler (even though Ferguson is a mere 5-10 blocks away), finding a way to do so without ripping out trees and paving over the natural beauty of this community must be a paramount consideration.
