August 15, 2024/

Many residents cite Bozeman’s development woes as a cautionary tale. Officials hope a new approach to land-use planning can put this central Montana community on a different path.
Snowy Mountain Development Corporation serves six counties in Central Montana: Fergus, Judith Basin, Wheatland, Petroleum, Musselshell and Golden Valley. Home to nearly 22,000 people, the 12,328-square-mile area features a breathtaking mixture of plains and island mountain ranges, punctuated by rural communities. Agriculture, manufacturing and construction industries anchor the region’s economy, where a number of landowners are among “America’s 100 Largest Landowners.”
