| ABOUT
THE OWNERS |
| Crow Chief
Meadows is a small, Montana Corporation, solely owned by Gary and
Clara Borland, both life-long residents of the Absarokee area. The
Borland family homesteaded here in 1913 and Clara Borland's family
came to the area in 1903. Her family has a long history in Montana
since her great-grandmother is documented as the second white child
born in Virginia City, Idaho Territory in 1863 before Montana became
a state. the Borlands have three married children and five grandchildren.
Both daughters are married to Canadian ranchers and live near Calgary,
Alberta, Canada. The Borland's son, Mike and grandson, Paydn, live in a home they built in 2003 on a 3 acre lot in the subdivision. |
| HISTORY
OF THE PROJECT |
| Crow Chief Meadows was originally a 480 acre parcel of rolling hillsides with a number of springs and a small creek running through the property. It is situated in such a way as to afford a full view of the Beartooth Mountain Range from every lot in the subdivision. The development began with a five lot minor subdivision in 1998. Those 7 and 8 acre lots have all been sold. The first 32 lot phase of the major subdivision was approved in July 2001 and as of October 2005, 20 of those lots are sold. Phase II of the project was approved in January 2003 and adds another 29 lots to the subdivision, 5 of these have also been sold. The total development will have 67 lots varying in size from 1.5 acres to 36 acres and a 38 acre private park. The park and all common areas are owned and maintained by the Homeowner's Association. no development is planned for this area since we plan to leave it natural with the creek and the springs as part of t his park. Wildlife is abundant in the area and we will make every effort to preserve the habitat for the animals.
A number of the lots
in the second phase of the major subdivision will border a 640 acre
parcel of State Land. This land is available for public use with
the purchase of a State land Use Permit. It affords a beautiful
place to ride horseback or hike and the adjoining lot owners have
the option of installing a gate in the fence line to make the property
readily accessible. Even the lot owners that don't border the State
Land parcel have ready access to it since the gate to the property
is less than ½ mile from the subdivision.
The Rosebud River is
only a mile from the Subdivision with public access available at
the bridge that crosses the river. There is an abundance of Rainbow
and Brown Trout in the stream and even an occasional Mountain Whitefish.
A two lane bridge was completed in June 0f 2002 and improvements
were also made in the access road from Highway 78 to the subdivision.
