Presentations on Oct. 7

We just had two interesting presentations related to the WARD initiative at City Commission! Check out the recording here.

One Valley Community Foundation’s Regional Housing Coalition presented a policy analysis on WARD. Their findings can be found in the documents section of this website. Their report discusses the drivers of the high cost of housing, the likely impacts on Gallatin County, including environmental concerns around developing on wells and septic, and policies/tools that can be pursued to help create more affordable housing.

Headwaters Community Housing Trust presented results from a poll of 424 registered voters in Bozeman. Their poll looked at a number of issues, from WARD to UDC to housing solutions. Their methodology and memo on the results can be found in the documents section as well.

Thanks for tuning in and staying up to date on all things WARD!
