LONG RANGE BUILDING PLAN 2012-2013
The University of Montana through the Montana University System requests funding and authority for construction, renovations, deferred maintenance, code and life/safety projects for state facilities from the Legislature each biennium starting in January of the second year. To meet the Legislative submittal deadline and the previous Governor's and Regents' submittal deadlines The University of Montana has to start its Long Range Building Program, LRBP, process early in the first year of the biennium.
