The Bigfork Land Use Advisory Committee heard from residents of Peaceful Drive during public comment at their meeting Thursday night, frustrated at the state of the Northshore Woods housing development.  

The preliminary plat for Northshore Woods passed through the Flathead County Board of Commissioners unanimously this October. The plat would allow for 51 single family homes on 43 acres of land in Bigfork, with the main access coming from Peaceful Drive and additional connectivity to Bigfork Stage Road. 

BLUAC recommended denial of the project when developer Longbow Land Partners, LLC of Jackson, Wyoming brought it before them in 2023. The commissioners followed suit then, but Longbow alleged their application was wrongfully denied and the county allowed Longbow to resubmit in a settlement.
