For 15 years, he and local officials made the objective of both stabilizing and showcasing the city’s namesake creek a priority.

Planning underway for Bozeman west side library

BOZEMAN, Mont. — Plans for a second Bozeman Public Library branch are moving forward as supporters work to raise money for a west-side location.The Bozeman Library Friends and Foundation bought land on Competition Drive in the Urban + Farm development for the project. The group plans to raise about $25 million and then turn that money over to the city for construction.This location is also ideal because it's close to Meadowlark Elementary and Gallatin High School, and sits on a Streamline bus route.Much of Bozeman's residential and commercial growth is happening on the west side. Supporters said the new branch would help meet demand in that part of the city. Census data shows growing numbers of families on the west side of 19th Avenue.More than half of the library's circulation comes from the children's section.

Billings and Belgrade veterans receive free cars ahead of Veterans Day

BELGRADE, Montana — Two veterans from Billings and Belgrade received free cars through Progressive Insurance's Keys to Progress program ahead of Veterans Day. Several local nonprofits and businesses helped identify people who needed a vehicle for the giveaway. Progressive said the program aimed to make a positive and life-changing difference for veterans who served the country. The company also said this was the first year it and its partners were able to give away two cars in Montana. "This is kind of one way that we can help to give back and apply that golden rule to the people who have made the biggest difference. And that's our veterans. You know, they've given everything to serve our country, and it's a really good way for us to give back," said Megan Webster with Progressive. Both recipients declined to speak with NonStop Local. Progressive runs the program every year and applications open in the spring for veterans looking for help getting a car.

Reuse master plan outlines ways the district could expand use of treated wastewater. At a Sept. 13 public event called “District on Tap,” the Big Sky County Water and Sewer District board shared options for water reuse, from Town Center irrigation to wildfire mitigation. The district does not discharge treated wastewater into the Gallatin River — instead, incoming wastewater is treated beyond Montana Department of Environmental Quality’s drinking water standards, is stored in ponds and can be reused for irrigation and snowmaking.

MSU named one of the top schools in the Country for Veteran support

BOZEMAN, MONT. — Montana State University has received national recognition for how it supports student veterans who are transitioning to life out of the armed forces. U.S. Veteran Magazine recently named MSU a top school for student veterans, marking the second time the Bobcats received that honor. The last time Montana State was named as a top school for student veterans was in 2024. In Bozeman, the university said the program helped veterans and service members move into the next stage of their lives. Todd Bucher, director of the Travis W. Atkins Veteran Support Center at MSU, said the award reflected the program's ongoing work. "It means that we just continue to raise our standards and continue pushing on to that next level of service to these veterans, and military members and their families," Bucher said. James Mayfield IV, an Army and Navy veteran at MSU, also spoke about how that support reached beyond the classroom in Bozeman. "You hear people talk about community a lot. It's very rare you actually meet people, and it really does feel like a family away from your own family; And that's, that's just definitely how everybody is here, so, you can see it
