Bozeman housing developers say a multi-faceted approach is needed to address the city’s affordable housing crisis.

During two panels on affordable housing solutions hosted by the city in recent weeks, developers cited the timing of projects, availability of consistent funding support and competitive land prices as factors affecting the city’s building stock. The consensus was that it will take a lot of different measures to lessen Bozeman’s housing woes.

Tracy Menuez, associate director of the Human Resources Development Council compared the challenge to “rowing a boat into a waterfall.”
