HRDC to Host Public Meetings this Week on Streamline Transit Development Plan Update

HRDC Press Release

Bozeman, MONT. – Since HRDC last updated the Streamline Transit Development Plan (TDP) in 2020, much has changed, both in our community and how people travel. Now, HRDC is seeking public input for a Streamline Transit Development Plan update to ensure our transit services meet the growing and evolving needs of the Gallatin Valley.

The public meetings will provide an important opportunity for community members to ask questions, share feedback, and suggest improvements. Community members are invited to attend the following public meetings:

● MSU SUB Tuesday, Sept 24th at 10:00 a.m.
● Bridger Brewing Wednesday, Sept 25th at 5:00 p.m.
● Bozeman Public Library Thursday, Sept 26th at 10:00 a.m.

If you are unable to attend one of the public meetings, we still want to hear from you! Community members are encouraged to fill out our online survey to provide feedback on the Transit Development Plan update. Your input is valuable in shaping the future of public transportation in the Gallatin Valley. The survey can be accessed at SteeringStreamlineBus.com
and will be available throughout the public engagement process.

HRDC is a private, not-for-profit Community Action Agency focused on building a better community through nearly 50 different initiatives aimed at combating poverty in southwestern Montana. Streamline is a program of HRDC with a proven track record of benefiting all area residents through the provision of public transit.

Brooke Poole

Public Sector

Since 2015, Brooke has been working with Allergan Aesthetics, Body Contouring. In 2018, Brooke began her role as Senior Manager of Training. Brooke graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Commercial Photography from Appalachian State University in 2011.

Brooke began her role on our Board in 2019. However, she feels it’s more fitting to say that she gets to serve on our Board. For Brooke, an evening at our Fork & Spoon was her first glance into our organization’s powerful work. As Brooke states, joining the Board has only expanded her appreciation for the caliber of people leading our mission and the impact of our vast ecosystem of services. While metrics alone are impressive, Brooke likes to visualize each number as an individual example of support – an extension of a helping hand, a moment of relief – given to one of our neighbors. She is grateful for the opportunity to participate in shaping HRDC’s future.

Although Brooke spends most of her volunteer time with HRDC, she was fortunate enough to build with Habitat for Humanity over the course of the summer in 2020. Her favorite place to spend time is anywhere under the Big Sky, although Hyalite may be her favorite place on Earth.

Ron served as Bozeman’s Assistant City Manager from 1990 to 2008. After retiring, Ron joined our Board in 2011. Ron received his Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Montana in 1977, and his Masters in Science in Rural, Town, and Regional Planning from the University of Montana in 1987.

During his time with the City of Bozeman, Ron saw the important role that HRDC has played in our community. Ron has seen that HRDC provides necessary social services to assure that all Bozeman residents could obtain housing, food, training, employment and the other necessities of life. He also came to understand that HRDC was always able to respond immediately as new community needs arose. Ron believes that the dedication, hard work, and compassion of HRDC’s staff make it a real honor to serve on the Board.

Ron also serves on the Trails, Open Space and Parks Committee for the City of Bozeman, and as a volunteer with the Red Cross. One of Ron’s favorite activities is walking his beloved dog every day, enjoying many of Bozeman’s trails and parks, like Burke Park, Bozeman Creek, and the Hyalite and Mount Ellis areas. Ron and his wife Claire enjoy spending their days with family, friends, and time outdoors.
