Missoula Redevelopment Agency approves FY27 budget and River Road project, other city business looms
The Missoula Redevelopment Agency Board unanimously approved its preliminary Fiscal Year 2027 budget and a package of funding for the River Road Improvement Project during a meeting on June 25. The votes were among the most significant actions taken by a city board in the past two weeks, as several other meetings were informational or procedural in nature.
Redevelopment board advances budget and River Road work
The MRA Board voted 7-0 to adopt the FY27 preliminary budget. It also approved a $99,450 design agreement with IMEG Consultants for the River Road Improvement Project, tax increment financing for the project, and an additional $2,486 for Public Works & Mobility to oversee the work. Separately, the board approved $100,000 in Urban Renewal District funding for the Missoula Economic Partnership and accepted minutes from two previous meetings.
City Council agenda: Trail park land acquisition, camera upgrades
The City Council is scheduled to hold public hearings on a proposed $130,000 acquisition of 28 acres along the historic Milwaukee Rail Corridor for a future trail park, as well as a land use plan amendment for the Reserve to Scott 2026 Master Plan area. The agenda for the June 22 meeting, which has not yet released minutes, also includes a $366,391 contract with Pine Cove Consulting to upgrade security cameras at SPLASH MT, Currents, MOBASH Skatepark, and Fort Missoula, and a $150,000 state grant award to Neighborworks Montana for the Bonnie’s Place Resident Owned Community housing project. Routine business items list approval of more than $3.4 million in accounts payable and a two-year renewal of the wastewater operators union contract.
