Montana Building Industry Association
We Advocate For You & For Attainable Housing.
Access to Water
We work with the Department of Natural Resources and Conservation to preserve the rights of Montanans for access to our most abundant natural resource, which is essential for clean and healthy living. We need a streamlined and more transparent new appropriation process, we want adjudication completed, and we maintain that residential wells are necessary for development.
Reasonable Taxes.
We aim to keep our government in line when it comes to raising property taxes to fuel uncontrolled spending and mismanaged budgets. It is not the sole responsibility of the homeowner or landowner to foot bad spending due to poor government policy and we are here to stand for our homeowners and builders to keep housing affordable & attainable.
Workforce Development.
Through our newly formed Foundation, we aim to bring safety, education and job opportunities to our future generations, and we train our members on safety all year long.
Secure Supply Chain.
We support buying American. We support better foreign policy. We support American Jobs. We support small business incentives and relief. All of which will improve our supply chain woes and reduce the cost of building a home.
Building Codes.
We work closely with the Department of Labor and Industry on building code regulation and reform. We bring common sense and real world application to the table when we fight for changes to adopted codes. We push back when code changes are restrictive, unnecessary and unrealistic.
Local, State & Federal.
Subdivision review is taking too long. Duplicative and Complicated Governmental processes delay progress. Growth policies are not being followed. Rules are being violated and development is being unnecessarily delayed. All of this adds to the cost of building a home. We take on local and state agencies, holding them accountable and ensure housing attainability.
