MCPB opening for County-Alternate Seat

There is still an opening for the Missoula Consolidated Planning Board's (MCPB) county alternate seat.  The city and county each get one alternate, both are non-voting members who can vote when a voting member is absent. The county alternate has to reside outside the city limits and it is often a good step in the door to becoming a full member.  Interested applicants need to apply through the website https://www.missoulacounty.us/community/volunteer.  The board meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm in the City Council Chambers to review city and county projects, including rezoning applications, subdivisions, regulation updates, growth policy updates and amendments, etc. They are an advisory body and their vote is a recommendation to City Council and Board of County Commissioners.
