Growing pains

I am concerned about the way the Flathead Valley is succumbing to the rampant spread of urban sprawl. Growth in the valley is taking place at such a fast pace that any chance to avoid the resulting look of "Anytown, USA" is nearly non-existent. It doesn't seem to matter how many well-crafted planning documents there are on record that advocate preservation of open space, clean water protection, accessible public parks, landscape and view guidelines, wildlife corridors and neighborhood character protection, the various neighborhood advisory committees, the county planning staff, the county planning board and the Flathead County Commissioners don't seem to think these documents are critical factors to consider when reviewing a developer's subdivision proposal. It appears to me that most of the applications are merely being given a quick look to see if they meet the minimum requirements. Little or no time is being spent to discover what sort of long term impacts a given subdivision, Master Plan amendment or conditional use permit will really have on the nature of the whole valley. How will the traffic flow be changed? What will it look like to the millions of Montana visitors who travel our roadways? What kind of additional strain will be put on our infrastructure? How will our property values ultimately be affected?
