Fellow Bozeman citizens, please consider supporting the creation of a Local Governance Review Commission. It’s on the June ballot. I’m heartily supporting it, hope you’ll do the same.This is an excellent opportunity for citizens to recommend improvements on how our local government can best serve us.

It’s time. Bozeman’s current city manager system isn’t working, and our city has grown significantly since the last citizen-led review 20 years ago. We’ve changed from a town to a city, our governance should reflect that change.

Citizens will be in charge at every step. We vote on whether to create a study commission, who serves on the commission, and whether to accept the proposed changes from the citizen commission. Let’s express our voice for positive change.
