Tribal Planning & Housing Opportunity Program.

The Tribal Planning and THOP Department has a vision to develop, expand, and implement the Comprehensive Development Strategies outlined in the 2018 CEDS document collaboratively working with the Fort Hall Business Council, regional partners, and other tribal programs.

This will promote the expansion of Community Economic Development for the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes Community and membership - ultimately promoting sustainable growth, social and economic development, and financial independence that preserves and protects the Fort Bridger treaty; therefore expanding jurisdiction, strengthening tribal sovereignty, maintaining cultural and traditional values for future generations.

Our Programs.

Tribal Planning


We take a strategic approach to defend our tribal sovereign jurisdiction over land and resource use and development inside the reservation boundaries.

The Planning Department advocates the establishment of a full-service desk for land use and development planning, permitting, and compliance for the reservation.
