What We Do
The GFCA's Land Use and Zoning Committee meets on the Thursday after the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 7:30 pm. at the Old Schoolhouse.
The committee reviews all Great Falls area land use applications that are scheduled to be heard by the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors (rezoning and Special Exceptions) or by the Board of Zoning Appeals (Special Permits and Variances) and represents the GFCA during the public hearing process on those applications. In addition, if requested by neighboring property owners, the Committee reviews some of the many by-right land use actions that are filed with the County (Preliminary Plats, Subdivision Plans, Waiver Requests, etc.). The Committee also proposes appropriate changes to the Comprehensive Plan and the local Area Plans every five years during the required Plan Review Process.
