Great Falls Planning Board
GREAT FALLS PLANNING BOARD PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PLAN June, 1982 December, 2005 August, 1993 February, 2008 May, 1996 December, 2011 TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION PAGE INTRODUCTION 1 POLICY 1 GOALS AND OBJECTIVES 1 PROCESS 2 1) Identify Participants 3 2) Disseminate Information 3 3) Receive Public Input 5 4) Respond to Public Input 6 5) Document Process 7 6) Fund Process 7 7) Review Process 7 8) Relationship of Public Participation Plan to Great Falls Transit District 7 7 APPENDIX A – Public Participation List APPENDIX B – “Public Involvement Techniques for Transportation Decision-Making” (Available in hard-copy in the Planning & Community Development Office, or on the World Wide Web at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/reports/pittd/contents.htm) INTRODUCTION/HISTORY In 1981, the Great Falls City-County Planning Board (Metropolitan Planning Organization) reviewed its citizen’s participation process to assess its overall effectiveness. The reassessment was in response to guidelines developed by the U. S. Department of Transportation and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency for citizen participation in the transportation planning process. It was concluded that a better defined and more effective citizen’s participation process was needed. As such, the Planning Board prepared a participation program which addressed and identified weaknesses and outlined the procedures to be followed in carrying out the process. With the passage of the Federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, an additional assessment of the Planning Board's public involvement process was conducted and resulted in the process revision dated May, 1996. On April 26, 2005, the Cascade County Board of Commissioners passed a resolution to dissolve the Great Falls City-County Planning Board and associated jurisdictional area, effective July 1, 2005. -

Central Montana
CENTRAL MONTANA 46 CENTRAL MONTANA - VISITMT.COM CENTRAL MONTANA CENTRAL MONTANA www.centralmontana.com · 800.527.5348 When it comes to Central Montana, the question is, how far back in time would you like to go? To 1960s kitsch at the Sip‘n Dip in Great Falls, a tiki bar with live performing mermaids? To Rockwellian winters, schussing the time- honored slopes of Montana’s oldest ski area? Or back to painter Charlie Russell’s frontier West, viewed from the windows of a dinner train? Here, you’ll experience Fort Benton’s days as a fur-trading outpost; Lewis and Clark’s 1805–06 Montana expedition; and Bear Paw Battlefield, where Chief Joseph resigned to “fight no more forever.” This land of sunny wheat fields, snowy plains and rolling mountains can take you back to a time before human civilization, too, like Choteau’s Cretaceous days as a hip dinosaur hangout. Or go back farther still, to geologic time, when sandstone rock formations slowly emerged along the Upper Missouri National Wild and Scenic River, and the entire Rocky Mountain Front lifted into existence. While Central Montana is home to 21st-century trappings like one of Montana’s largest wind farms, even everyday interactions here are tinged with a sort of old-fashioned charm. Chatting with the guy at the next ice fishing hole, swapping field notes with fellow birders and running into skinny-skiers on the trails, you’ll find folks warmly welcoming and unpretentious, much like the hotels, cafes, saloons and museums. In such a laid-back, unbustling place, it’s easy to feel like you have all the time in the world...maybe because you do.
