Due to its location and the growth needs of the City of Bozeman, the property represents an optimal site to absorb development pressure that might otherwise contribute to the sprawl of Gallatin Valley. The Church, however, has a keen interest in traditional rural values and in conserving open space, and thus wants a development plan for the property that is conservation oriented and respects the land and its history. The Church has selected Stillwater to create such a development plan for the property because of our conservation-based approach combined with our real estate experience. Working with Ecolibrium, a local consulting group that pursues conservation outcomes, Stillwater is engaged in creating a development plan for a new community on the property, and stands in first position to execute such a plan if its feasibility is demonstrated.
