Mardi Gras success
Whitefish Winter Carnival was a wonderful month-long celebration. None of the activities could happen without the enthusiasm and support of the committee, the business community and all of the fantastic citizens of Whitefish and the surrounding area.

Legislature looks at infrastructure, housing
The Montana Legislature is on a transmittal break during the first week of March. This is the 45-day mark of the session where general bills (nonrevenue), must get to the other chamber. Most of us in the House will be off this week. Several unlucky members of the Appropriations Committee will be back in Helena on Thursday for committee work. House Bill 2, the funding bill for the general budget will pass through the careful scrutiny of Appropriations. This committee is broken into six sections of government services. The sections subsequently convene as a whole to guide the body towards an attainable budget. Appropriations members often can be seen with several trees worth of binders. Within such binders are spreadsheets galore, everything done within Montana government. Assignment to this committee equates to the special forces of our legislature. They are the worker bees, their tasks much appreciated by the remaining plebian legislators.
