Bitterroot River setbacks

Ravalli County commissioners are considering a committee that will make recommendations to the county planning department regarding building setbacks along Bitterroot Valley waterways.

So far there are 17 proposed members, but hunting and angling groups argue there should also be representation from Trout Unlimited, the Ravalli County Fish and Wildlife Association and other conservation groups.

Real estate and farming groups have already been included in the list of 17 representatives.
