Part 4. Appraisal of Residential Property in Areas of Changing Use

Purpose

15-7-401. Purpose. The legislature finds that the rapid commercial and industrial growth in many Montana cities and towns is engulfing homes.

The legislature intends that houses and lots in these areas of changing use shall be appraised on their value as residential property.
