BUILD Grant Initiative

In 2019 the Missoula Area Chamber of Commerce joined with Missoula County to secure a $13 million BUILD Grant for the community. The need for critical infrastructure to promote development of workforce housing and commercial spaces prompted the Chamber to lead the lobbying efforts with Montana’s Congressional Delegation and the US Department of Transportation.
 
The federal grant will be used for installation of roads, water and sewer in the Mullan/West Broadway area, promoting development and mitigating the costs associated with the projects. This allows residential and commercial developers to build and sell properties at lower costs, benefiting the workforce and business owners. The growth seen from this investment in our community will benefit everyone in the Missoula community.
 
The effort to secure the grant built on and deepened relationships with local government officials, highlighting the need to work together for the good of the Missoula community. The Chamber remains committed to securing the remaining $10 million in federal funding to complete the projects planned in the Mullan BUILD Grant area.
