Mountain Con Mine Yard Public Hearing on Development Plans

The Butte Restoration Alliance is a citizens' advisory group formed by Butte-Silver Bow County to provide input and prioritization for the restoration and redevelopment of Butte.

CHARTER: Representing a wide diversity of community interests, the Butte Restoration Alliance is being convened to help the community work together to take full advantage of opportunities for restoration and redevelopment in Butte. The Alliance will review current and identified restoration and redevelopment projects; evaluate possible projects related to available and potential funding; collect feedback and solicit ideas from the broader public; confirm public support on planned and ongoing projects; and using agreed upon guiding principles and criteria, make recommendations to the Council of Commissioners on various projects and priorities. Alliance discussions will acknowledge community vision statements, guiding principles, objectives and assumptions created through other community planning and problem-solving processes.
