breaking ground

We review the book "Dig, Dump, Roll" by Sally Sutton. 

Aaron LaCombe, Americana Artist talks about "Breaking Ground" and touring.  He tours with his adorable 9 year old Great Dane, Potter.  He's blazing his own trail and keeping it real with his lyrics that hold so much emotion. He's recently won 2021 Winner of the Texana Troubador Songwriting Competition. His song “Uncle Carl” was a 2019 New Mexico Film Festival Nominee and has more than 100,000 listens.
Aaron talks about his motivation and inspiration. I got goosebumps throughout this interview. Take a listen!

The Missoula County Commissioners are the regulatory authority who often make the final decision on public and private land-use proposals, and many factors weigh in on their final action.

Addressing the housing crisis seen nationally and locally is not a one-size-fits-all solution but a recipe with multiple ingredients, which include careful thought, public input, considering both a community and broad perspective and, for Missoula County, a new zoning code update, a new housing plan and smart use of public land.

Recently, the commissioners considered two land proposals related to housing. The public process of the proposals highlighted the importance and growing need for more affordable housing units in Missoula County. In this episode, the commissioners talk through some of the elements that go into their decision-making and factors they consider while talking with the communities their final action impacts. 

Missoula County invites public input on the newly published zoning code draft. Community and Planning Services staff will present the updated draft virtually during the first public hearing at the Missoula Consolidated Planning Board meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday, March 1. 

To view the proposed draft, provide comments and to find additional meeting information, people can visit www.mczoningupdate.com. While staff have already incorporated many changes into the zoning code based on the hundreds of comments received this past year, additional feedback is encouraged prior to the public hearing.

The newly adopted Housing Action Plan: Breaking Ground, is available online at  missoula.co/housing. The County developed the plan in response to the rapidly evolving housing market in the County and the growing population that has created an undersupply of housing at all price points.
