Proposal puts scrutiny on uses for economic money in Butte-Silver Bow

Butte-Silver Bow commissioners will weigh new guidelines for how the county distributes money from the economic development mill levy.

A proposal prepared by a six-commissioner economic development committee would require applicants who want a piece of the $68,000 fund to outline their project, describe economic benefits to Butte-Silver Bow, define "specific, measurable results and milestones" that the project would achieve and have a "detailed" budget.
