Our Work

Our organization began on a beautiful Montana fall day in September 2020. By November, we had incorporated as a nonprofit and were actively involved in local planning efforts, including Livingston’s Growth Policy update and Park County’s zoning discussions.

Our consultants highlighted critical issues, from limited land for growth within city limits to the impacts of rural sprawl on agriculture, wildlife corridors, and the local economy.

A detailed history of our Growth Policy advocacy with the City of Livingston Planning Board is linked here.

Links to a variety of online resource and educational materials about land use planning and zoning can be reviewed here.

Our participation in the Park County Planning Board’s Conflict Mitigation Zoning District proposal, as well as our concerns with regard to rural residential sprawl are detailed here.

Relevant webinars and online presentations which we and/or our consultants and associates have hosted can be viewed here.

While our aim and focus has primarily been on our local governmental boards and commissions, several bills floated in the 2021 Montana Legislative session inspired this letter to the governor and our representatives in Helena.

And an archive of our e-mail updates can be reviewed here.
