Embrace student visions

To the Seniors of Whitefish High School who have participated in the City’s Whitefish Vision 2045 Community Growth Plan: you are to be wholeheartedly congratulated. Why? Indeed, many of you will remain living here or return to Whitefish someday and your input now is invaluable to the City’s future growth plan, as we all envision what our city will look like and be twenty years in the future.  

We need to embrace your vision for our future and welcome you to come to our monthly work sessions on the plan as well as sign up for our newsletters at www.engagewhitefish.com. We ask that any of you reach out to your fellow students and ask them to become involved as well. Honestly, some of us who are current residents and volunteers on the Board won’t be here in 20 years, but you may be! What the city is going to look like as well as managing its growth will be up to you, each of you.  

Any City Council or Community Development Board meeting is open to the public and comment is encouraged. Encourage your parents and friends to get involved in the plan development as well. Again, thank you! 

Phil Boland, Whitefish
