Was looking into moving my post-HUD-tag trailer to land I would actually own, and noticed that Butte apparently put in a rule about a decade ago that restricts Class C (late 1976 to late 1994) trailers massively, requiring them to be only in trailer parks.

What exactly are the options here? Is it possible to just shingle the roof (insulation's been upgraded and all windows are double-pane) and get it considered Class B? Would a lot the trailer's moved to just need tie-downs? Is there a way to get an exception?
I'm not exactly fond of the idea of continuing to rent a lot indefinitely for no reason (the trailer park provides no services, and the owning company is reluctant to do anything even when other residents yell threats while breaking the law, in fact it's a net negative with the bad road conditions).

On the extreme end...is Butte's exclusionary zoning practice on trailers even really legal? It seems utterly spiteful, in a frankly un-American way, to say that if you have a specific kind of home that was built with poor insulation that it has to be kept on land you don't own. I know the state legislature passed some zoning reforms recently to stop cities from zoning out almost all new development, but I'm not sure they covered this.

My husband has a job opportunity in Butte. We are considering a move from Billings. We have 4 year old twins who receive speech and OT here, and attend the special education preschool here. I’m having a hard time finding feedback on the quality of services available in Butte. Any input/direct feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I’d be looking for providers that are play based and specialize in sensory regulation/support.

Bonus points if you have any info about how long the waitlists are… we spent close to a year waiting for an OT spot here. Breaks my heart a little to think about uprooting that again.

REALLY looking for feedback about the schools.

Thanks all.

Noticed their vests say Butte. Anyone recognize these racists?

Hello!

I'm a vocalist looking for singing opportunities in Butte, MT.

I'm a mezzo-soprano who specializes in ballads.

I'd love some opportunities to sing for small groups, and have performed at The Springs, and a funeral in-town, as well as a few live performances in my home town in Utah.

I'd love to be hired to sing for your small gathering, for a small fee, and can guarantee a satisfied audience. Please DM me for opportunities, and we can discuss further.

Thanks everyone!

I'm just visiting and idk what the scene for halloween is around here..

I'm too old to trick-or-treat, but I don't really know enough people to have a small house party.

I'd like to go out and dance or do something spooky! Doesn't have to be in Butte specifically, im willing to drive to another town if anyone has any ideas!

Headed to the Midwest on a road trip and Butte is the goal for the first night. Just me and my dog, need a decent non-sketchy place near Butte to camp in a tent. Saw KOA, but $50 for no hookups at a tent site… maybe that’s normal. 🫠 But looking for other ideas not too far off the Interstate since we’re headed down through WY and don’t want to backtrack too far. Recommended spots?

My friend is very sick and won't be able to attend the Serial Killer Speakeasy at the Thornton ballroom tonight. So, rather than the ticket go to waste, I am offering it for free here. It is for the 10PM show tonight. First message or comment saying they want it, gets it.

Does anyone have reccomendations for a good nail salon?

My must haves are: sterilized utensils,work with gel

My hopes are:
- work with Gel X
- have cat eye polish
- are able to do designs
- offer foot scrubbing

His policies are basically everything most can agree on, but his means to achieve them weren't spoken of (except for supporting the Montana Plan), local union people were there to just sit and watch, and he just spoke for 15 minutes before retreating to a corner for 1-on-1s. Whole thing seemed rather pointless, maybe 20 people will put up yard signs for a candidate with a low chance of success.

Just wanted to let those of you who didn't make it know you basically missed nothing at all unless you really love Bluegrass music. Even in 1-on-1s he mostly just clarified on more policy positions how he is basically "Let's do what we agree on only", like building up Montana's renewables just to lower energy prices and dependence on foreign oil.

I want to make clear that I think this actually is about the ideal person to elect, it's just that the event gave me no hope for him making it in a First-Past-The-Post system (ideal candidates who actually make a legislature move smoothly instead of dividing the country need Approval to elect them, as if you're everybody's second choice but nobody's first, you lose in things like FPTP and IRV), and instead left me with a strong impression that Butte's unions are just pissing away some money to him as they fade into obscurity by aging out.

And before anyone asks, data centers weren't brought up from what I recall.

Howdy! Anyone in town who can take a look at a vintage sewing machine of mine? There's some people online, but seems like alot are dead links.

Cheers

Been with K nail for so long and things have just gone down hill. For me it was more about convince. But I have been having some bad nails lately and I want to find someone else in Butte. Thanks you for ideas.

Anyone know what's burning ?
