Community Development Board - Oct 5, 2026
Rental apartments may no longer be the shortage they once were. Staff data shows only about 45% home-ownership in Bozeman, and staff point to townhomes as the most land- and cost-efficient ownership product to target next.
City Commission - Sep 15, 2026
A Change.org-backed civic dialogue found rare cross-party consensus on housing: 12 policies cleared a strict consensus bar, including HOA covenant reform, a pre-approved pattern book, MSU student housing partnership, and low-interest first-home loans. No action was taken; commissioners may hold a work session.
City Commission - Aug 4, 2026
The Commission was scheduled to hold a work session on community housing — one of Bozeman's most pressing affordability issues. It's a discussion item, so no action was expected on the agenda itself.
Economic Vitality Board - Jun 3, 2026
The city will host a housing work session on August 4 to lay out a holistic picture of Bozeman's housing work — city programs, the Regional Housing Coalition, and partners like HRDC, Family Promise, and Haven doing emergency and transitional housing.
