BUSINESS
WEB PAGE: A great deal of discussion and review of the proposed new property owners — For sale
or lease page was held. The board would like to see something less cumbersome. They like the way
the City of Missoula handles their page and would like something similar. Basically, one tab with
Available Properties and hyper -links to Commercial lease, Commercial sale, Residential lease and
residential sale and then greater Kalispell which is the link to the NMAR site. A second tab would be
to Post my properties where the owner fills in all information and downloads pictures. The Board
would like to see the application removed and also remove any reference to the KDA within this area.
