Open Meeting – "Vision Plan For Historic Uptown Butte" – 4/16 – Butte, Montana

County officials are holding a public discussion for what they call a "Vision Plan for Historic Uptown Butte" from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday in the first-floor Ballroom of the Thornton Building at 65 E. Broadway St.

The goal is to develop a plan for future development of Uptown by first determining community objectives through open discussions. Uptown business owners, renters and homeowners are all encouraged to attend.

Butte-Silver Bow’s top official hopes a meeting Monday night will ultimately lead Uptown business owners to establish a special district that can raise and spend money on area improvements.

Chief Executive Dave Palmer says past efforts at creating a Business Improvement District for Uptown Butte have failed in part because different groups of business owners haven’t come together.
