Housing for aging and for mobility-challenged citizens also needed

I'm hopeful those involved in development policy will finally recognize that Bozeman badly needs not only "affordable" housing (which of course it does) but hundreds more one-story units of all sizes, types, and cost levels - condos, apartments, single-family units - that are, or can easily be converted to, mobility- and handicap-friendly design for our growing aging population. Removal of barriers such as stairs and shower-pan thresholds, elevators for multi-story buildings, and HOAs that provide community services such as snow removal on the properties and surrounding public streets, allow many more people to age in place successfully and HAPPILY.
