Plan Purpose
Coordination & Communication
Vision
Regional coordination creates and maintains a coherent land use pattern that supports the needs of existing and future citizens and the desire to protect community character and amenities. Cooperation between jurisdictions supports development patterns that do not compromise the ability of municipalities to grow in the future or expand necessary infrastructure.
Belgrade, Bozeman and Gallatin County will coordinate land use in the Triangle to achieve:
Compact, contiguous development and infill to achieve an efficient use of land and infrastructure, reducing sprawl and preserving open space, agricultural lands, wildlife habitat, and water resources.
Well-planned transportation systems, consistent with the overall growth management vision, support the development of multi-modal and public transportation networks.
Community centers have adequate transportation, utility, health, educational and recreational facilities. Residential areas provide healthy surroundings.
Opportunities for agriculture, industry and business, while minimizing conflict between adjacent land uses.
