A look at Montana’s postwar push to plan growth, create jobs, and attract industry
This edition surveys how communities across Montana used master planning, zoning, and state support to steer growth from 1958 through 1960. It shows how local plans connected land use, population trends, and economic development with federal matching grants and state coordination. The book details several cities and the kind of projects that shaped the region’s economy during this period, including housing, industry, and public services.
- See how industrial growth spread from timber and metals to oil, chemicals, and electronics, with state planning boards guiding investment and financing.
- Learn about specific projects and plants that expanded employment, from plywood and pulp production to fertilizer and steel-related ventures.
- Understand how Montana encouraged long-term financing and the creation of local Industrial Development Corporations to support community projects.
- Discover the role of information channels like newsletters to share industry news and connect Montana with national markets.
Ideal for readers of state history, economic development, and mid‑century planning efforts looking for concrete examples of how a western state organized growth and resources.
