A Whitefish nonprofit organization that advocates for affordable housing has asked to join a lawsuit over four new housing laws being challenged in district court.

Shelter WF on Jan. 17 filed a motion to intervene as a defendant in the lawsuit filed by a coalition of homeowners against the state in Gallatin County District Court. 

The homeowners, known as Montanans Against Irresponsible Densification or MAID, are challenging a quartet of bills aimed at addressing the affordable housing crisis in the state. A portion of the lawsuit has already been appealed to the Montana Supreme Court.
