Consultation has concluded
About the Project
In October 2023, Gallatin County initiated a process to create a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) and Housing Strategy (HS). The Envision Gallatin Land Use and Housing Strategy (Land Use and Housing Strategy) process is being led by the Gallatin County Department of Planning and Community Development, with support from a consulting team, and a local Steering Committee. Key objectives for the project are to:
Build on what’s been done. The 2021 Growth Policy established an overarching vision and priorities for future land use in Gallatin County, and the County has adopted numerous area and neighborhood plans for many of its rural/unincorporated communities. This effort will focus on the implementation of adopted plans and policies through the FLUM and HS, as well as the identification of potential gaps or inconsistencies for future consideration.
Document housing gaps and needs and define a role for the County in housing. Using the Gallatin County Regional Housing Strategy (2021) as a foundation, this effort will assess in more detail housing needs and opportunities specific to the unincorporated areas of Gallatin County. Key findings will be used to inform the creation of the FLUM and HS.
Foster continued collaboration within Gallatin County and the broader region. There are many public and private stakeholder groups actively working on land use and housing issues in the region. This effort seeks to leverage the collective knowledge, experience, and roles of these diverse groups with a specific focus on identifying steps that Gallatin County can take to help implement regional priorities.
Establish a foundation for future updates to the County’s zoning regulations. The FLUM that emerges from this effort will help inform future area and neighborhood plans, requests for new zoning, and potential changes to existing zoning.
An overview of the Land Use and Housing Strategy process is provided below, along with expected timelines for each project phase and community and stakeholder engagement opportunities.
