Helena City and County Calendar: Upcoming Meetings, Hearings, Community Events

The City of Helena municipal calendar for February 2026 lists a dense sequence of public meetings and advisory-board sessions, including City Commission meetings, Planning Commission, Board of Adjustment and multiple advisory boards, with fourteen thumbnail entries labeled Image 1 through Image 14. The Greater Helena Area MPO entry for the Transportation Policy Coordinating Committee appears on Feb. 9 at the City-County Building, Room 226, 316 N. Park Ave., and state board schedules show a public Full Board meeting set for 05/13/2026 at 301 S. PARK AVE, HELENA 4TH FLOOR in a HYBRID format.

The municipal calendar extract itself contains user-interface strings that affect access: "This element requires javascript to be enabled." and "Please wait while we load this calendar..." The thumbnail capture also repeats the calendar prompt "items. Show the full list of calendar items in a popup." The extract records the item thumbnails exactly as shown: "Image 1: Public MeetingsCity-County Commission Joint Work Session", "Image 2: Public MeetingsBoard of Adjustment Meeting", "Image 3: Public MeetingsCity-County Consolidated Parks Board Meeting", "Image 4: Public MeetingsCity Commission Administrative Meeting", "Image 5: Public MeetingsHCC Outreach Committee [...] Image 5: Public MeetingsHCC Outreach Committee", "Image 6: Public MeetingsGreater Helena Area MPO Transportation Policy Coordinating Committee", "Image 7: Public MeetingsCity Commission Meeting", "Image 8: Public MeetingsPlanning Commission Meeting", "Image 9: Public MeetingsParking Advisory Committee Meeting", "Image 10: Public MeetingsCitizen Conservation Board Meeting [...]", "Image 11: Public MeetingsGolf Advisory Board Meeting", "Image 12: Public MeetingsHeritage Preservation and Tourism Council Meetings", "Image 13: Public MeetingsCity Commission Administrative Meeting", "Image 14: Public MeetingsHelena URD TIF Advisory Board Meeting".

Greater Helena Area MPO listings provide additional location detail for transportation committees that the municipal calendar thumbnails omit. The MPO lists "Transportation Policy Coordinating Committee (TPCC)" on 09 Feb 2026 at City-County Building, Room 226, 316 N. Park Ave., 59601 and notes "6 more dates" for the TPCC series. The MPO also lists the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC) on 23 Feb 2026 at City-County Building, Room 226, 316 N. Park Street, Helena, Montana 59601 and likewise notes "6 more dates."

State-level board scheduling on the Boardmeetings DLI MT page shows upcoming Full Board sessions with public access modalities and addresses. The page lists "Meeting: Full Board. Detail: 301 S. PARK AVE, HELENA 4TH FLOOR. Date: 05/13/2026. Public Access: OPEN TO PUBLIC. Location: HYBRID" and also a "Meeting: Full Board. Detail: TELECONFERENCE ONLY. Date: 08/12/2026. Public Access: OPEN TO PUBLIC. Location: VIRTUAL" plus a 11/18/2026 HYBRID entry at "301 S PARK, HELENA 4TH FLOOR." The state page also documents recent past items such as "Meeting: Screening Panel. Detail: Zoom. Date: 03/03/2026. Public Access: Closed to the Public. Location: Virtual" and notes that meetings, agendas, and minutes are available up to one year.

The Helena Area Chamber of Commerce calendar widens the civic roundup to community events this spring. Chamber listings include "Community Blend" on Tue Apr 21, 2026 at Galaxy Roasting, 10 West Main Street, East Helena, MT 59635 (9:00 am - 10:00 am); "Chamber Roadmap" and "Brews & Blueprints" on Wed Mar 25, 2026 at 225 N Cruse Avenue and Brothers Tapworks respectively; the "2026 Swish Basketball Tournament" on Mar 7-8; and "Chamber Compass Series" on Mar 11 at Opportunity Bank Conference Center, 1550 Vandelay. The Chamber page uses promotional language: "👷‍♀️ Come for the updates. 🍺 Stay for the conversation. 📐 Be part of the progress. Let’s raise a glass to transparency, collaboration, and the future of Helena!"

Practical limitations remain for readers seeking full agendas and start times: the municipal calendar extract omits start/end times, room numbers and agenda links for the February thumbnails and explicitly shows the calendar UI warnings above. Reporters and residents should retrieve full calendar popups or the MPO and state agenda links to confirm meeting times, hybrid or virtual access, and any public-hearing dockets ahead of the Full Board session on 05/13/2026 and the Chamber events in March and April. The city and county schedule captured here shows a concentrated slate of advisory work that will feed City Commission and state board activity through the spring.
