The Office of Planning and Grants is currently working on the Urban Fringe Development Area project to provide governing bodies with information for addressing growth in the Urban Fringe Area within a regional context. The goal is to identify where growth is mostly to occur within the Urban Fringe Area, and develop implementation strategies for addressing growth in accordance with adopted policy within growth areas.

The Urban Fringe is described as the area inside the Urban Service Area, with an emphasis on addressing growth in the area between the City limits and the Urban Service Area boundary. The Urban Service Area (URSA) is the same as the City of Missoula Wastewater Sewer Service Area.

The initial phase of the project has been to collect data and discuss issues and solutions with City, County and other key agencies. In a series of three working group meetings, the group focused on public, safety, infrastructure, parks, open space, and public health. This phase culminated with a presentation to the governing bodies on January 16, 2008, and the Urban Fringe Development Area Project (2.8mb) document. It contains a series of maps, key points, and discussion items and can be viewed or downloaded here. The working group series of maps can be viewed on the FTP site.
