As the state continues to investigate surveying the land the Montana Developmental Center sits on to help determine how it might be repurposed, state and local officials have been brainstorming potential new uses for the site.
Seven of those officials toured parts of the campus on Dec. 26 to fine-tune ideas that include providing services for veterans and vocational training for Jefferson High School students.
The tour was scheduled by Tom Harrington, MSU Extension Agent for Jefferson County and manager of the Jefferson Local Development Corporation, a countywide nonprofit economic development group, at the request of several members of groups focused on shaping Boulder’s post-MDC economy who were unfamiliar with parts or all of the site.
