Bringing all the elements of a project together to completion requires many moving pieces to work together. One of the most intimidating aspects of establishing or expanding a business can be navigating local government and regulations. In Missoula, we’re here to help. In addition to unparalleled access to local leaders, Missoula’s local government offers streamlined development services and permitting.

Through the City of Missoula’s Department of Community Planning, Development, & Innovation, Development Services is responsible for permitting and land use, planning approvals, development review, plan review, permitting, site and engineering inspections, licensing, and code compliance. At the County level, Missoula County Community and Planning Services (CAPS) provides these services. If you’re not sure where to start, contact us for assistance.
