Our Missoula Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Missoula’s new Unified Development Code (UDC) and zoning map have been adopted to better align our development rules with Our Missoula 2045 and community priorities—supporting housing choice, neighborhood compatibility, economic vitality, our climate goals, and responsible growth. Now, our focus shifts from adoption to implementation—making sure the new rules are clear and accessible.

The information below addresses the most frequently asked questions about Code Reform, explaining what’s changing, why these changes matter, and how they will help Missoula grow in a way that’s fair, sustainable, and reflective of our community’s values.

We know this is a big change, and your feedback is important. If you have more questions or ideas, visit them through the 'Submit Your Question' tool below. Your comments will help us continue improving the code and make sure it works for everyone who calls Missoula home.
