Our Engagement Philosophy

The Our Missoula project will utilize continuous, relationship-based engagement that brings the whole community along. Our engagement approach focuses on three key areas. These areas are: collaborative education, sharing experiences, and building awareness of key issues. To achieve these goals, we are working to build meaningful relationships with community members that are based on trust and transparency.

We are engaging the community early and often throughout this process. There will be engagement opportunities during each of the six project phases that will range from small focus groups to large community-wide events. You can also expect to see the Our Missoula team at events around the city, at your organization's monthly meeting, and in other places throughout the community.

We strive to create a supportive and accessible environment, and it is crucial to understand and address any potential barriers that might affect participation.

    Tuesday, October 15, 2024
    6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
    GoodWorks Place, 129 W. Alder St.
    Dinner and kids' activities provided!

    Join the City of Missoula to learn about the Our Missoula Draft Land Use Plan! We are sharing the results of our collaborative community process through a series of public events and on the Our Missoula website. Learn how we got here, see what we came up with together, and share your thoughts. We want to make sure you understand what the Land Use Plan is and what it means for our community.

    A land use plan is the foundational document that cities in Montana use to: highlight community priorities for future growth; put in place long-term land use strategies that aim to address the City's emerging issues and challenges; and align development rules and regulations with community priorities and City plans. It influences how Missoula's built environment looks and feels - this includes all of the places we live, work, and play.

    At these community presentations, residents can expect to learn about the Draft Land Use Plan through a staff-led presentation followed by small group discussions with staff and neighbors. Presentations start promptly at the event start time.

    While these events are hosted and managed by the City of Missoula, the Draft Land Use Plan represents the areas of the Land Use Plan boundary, which currently includes part of Missoula County. Staff invite city and county residents to participate. This is the last opportunity to learn about and comment on the Draft Land Use Plan before it begins the process for adoption.

    There are multiple ways to learn and engage:

    Community presentations: Learn about the Draft Land Use Plan through a staff-led presentation followed by small group discussions with staff and neighbors. Presentations start promptly at the event start time.

    Drop-in review and discussions with City Staff: Learn about the Draft Land Use Plan through printed materials and one-on-one discussions with staff. These are drop-in opportunities; come and go as you can, stay for as long as you would like.

    Online: The full draft Land Use Plan will be available for public review on the Our Missoula website. Look for an announcement next week for when this option will be released!

    By calling: Community Engagement Specialist Ashley Brittner Wells at 406-552-6221 or emailing brittnerwellsa@ci.missoula.mt.us.
