The Farviews Pattee Canyon Parks Study: A Visioning and Implementation Tool for Park Land Improvements in the Farviews Pattee Canyon Neighborhood has been prepared by Wonder Land llc with funding from a Neighborhood Projects Fund Grant . The study can be viewed on line or by contacting a Neighborhood Council leadership team member. The study proposes a Master Trails Plan to access and link parts of the neighborhood park system using a connected system of trails. It also proposes detailed plans for each of the neighborhood parks by addressing park character and amenities.
A Neighborhood Infrastructure/Growth Policy Task Force is forming, to appraise existing conditions and to develop a plan to preserve the experience of living on the hill. Please join. Help with research, discussions, and engaging your neighbors regarding a Growth Plan for Farviews / Pattee Canyon.
Our Neighborhood Council has resolved to recommend to the City Council of Missoula and to the Missoula Consolidated Planning Board that the Hillside Design Standards be reviewed and substantially amended in order to clarify the determination of building height; to not allow in any cases construction of taller buildings (as seen from the street) in Hillside Design Standards areas than in non-Hillside Design Standards areas with the same overall zoning designation(s); to require the same restrictions on vertical wall elements as in non-Hillside Design Standards areas; and thus in practice, to support rather than work against the objectives stated in the Hillside Design Standards.
