Billings council work session set Aug. 3 for 2045 Plan updates
Billings City Council is scheduled to discuss amendments and updates to the Billings 2045 Plan at a work session Monday, Aug. 3, at 5:30 p.m.
The session is scheduled for City Hall Council Chambers, 316 North 26th St. The city administrator’s weekly report identifies Billings 2045 Plan amendments and updates as a work-session topic, and the city calendar lists the council meeting at that time and location.
The scheduled discussion follows plan-related items listed for regular council business on July 27. Those agenda items included adoption of Billings 2045 Plan amendments and updates, adoption of the West Billings Neighborhood Plan, and adoption of the Heights Neighborhood Plan.
July agenda items and Aug. 3 session
The city administrator’s report listed three plan-related adoption items for the July 27 agenda. The report described them as regular-business items planned for that date.
The available source packet does not establish whether council approved, rejected, postponed or otherwise acted on any of the July 27 items. It also does not include a later vote record that would confirm an outcome.
That distinction leaves the Aug. 3 meeting as the next identified public step in the records provided. The city’s report specifically places the Billings 2045 Plan amendments and updates on the work-session agenda, but does not state whether council is scheduled to take a vote during that session.
Plans involved
The items involve the citywide Billings 2045 Plan as well as neighborhood plans for West Billings and the Heights. Together, the materials identify a long-range planning process that could shape future city decisions on land use, transportation, housing and development in major portions of Billings.
The records do not identify a particular development, zoning change or project that would be authorized by the plan items. They also do not provide the substantive text of the proposed 2045 Plan amendments and updates.
Nor do the available materials include full staff memoranda for the Aug. 3 work session. As a result, the packet does not show which sections of the 2045 Plan may be under discussion, what revisions may be proposed, or whether the discussion will address the two neighborhood plans.
What residents can expect
For people following Billings’ long-range growth and neighborhood planning, the confirmed information is limited to the scheduled meeting, its location and the 2045 Plan topic listed in the administrator’s report. The prior July 27 agenda is relevant background, but it is not proof that the listed adoptions occurred.
No subsequent deadline, additional meeting date or later agenda material is included in the source packet. The Aug. 3 work session is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. in City Hall Council Chambers.
