Recap from Roundtables
The planning boards roundtable was a good conversation and positive feedback. It
was good to have West Yellowstone participate as well.
Elected officials roundtable was a good conversation, very relaxed and open.
Positive feedback from attendees.
Housing Presentation – Seat at the Table, Regional Housing Council, Housing
Solutions Team
The Regional Housing Council is being stood up by One Valley Community
Foundation with a goal of launching fall 2022. It will serve to coordinate across
jurisdictions and partners – public and private throughout the county. It is informed
by the Regional housing study and the Seat at the Table conversations.
The Housing solutions team completed the workshop Fall 2021 and identified the 4
pillars of a housing strategy. The County Commission is considering a request to
develop a Housing Strategy and related CDGB grant to fully develop a strategy in
2023.
Discussion:
Why isn’t Habitat for Humanity included? Habitat is included in Seat at the
Table report, the handout of current projects and the 4 pillars of a housing
strategy, just reduced number of slides for this high level overview.
The Regional Housing Coalition can move forward before the housing
strategy and is seeking support from key partners including – incorporated
municipalities, county, private partners.
How did the PCC start? What can we learn? PCC was launched after a study of
the Triangle that recommended the formation of PCC to increase
coordination and communication. The committee has advanced shared
understanding and the Triangle Community Plan and Trails Plan. We keep
showing up because we understand the value and appreciate understanding
what each jurisdiction is grappling with. We have 1 shot to get it right and
this is a key component to making that happen.
PCC sees the value of a Housing Council as an excellent opportunity to
expand capacity, advance housing efforts and coordinate projects and
initiatives.
PCC projects have had the advantage of being advanced as a group and this
has made them very successful, we are able to get broad agreement from all
jurisdictions.
A Housing Council would help the PCC because it would bring more partners
to the table, build regional solutions and approaches not just from one
jurisdiction, similar to the coordination for the MPO.
Trapline – updates and announcements
Belgrade is considering an ADU ordinance and soliciting comments for an
April 25th meeting then it will go to city council. It is an effort to increase
density but there are concerns about q=adequately mitigating parking needs.
Belgrade recently annexed 300 acres with 200 acres R3 or higher density
and focused on residential.
RFP out for Dry Creek interchange project.
Bozeman is in the selection process for contract focused on land use
development ordinance. And keeping up with the workload.
Public Comment:
The Triangle plan is very good, it is fiscally efficient. We need water and sewer plan
and a diversity of housing (duplexes, cottage homes). We can address parking in
covenants.
Livable Community Initiative – aging population with growing numbers over 65,
how will the market respond to this demographic change?
