概要
We're starting the week with some exciting developments in our community. First up, if you're looking for things to do today, we've got plenty of options. The Bellingham Sportsplex is hosting public ice skating from eight thirty to eleven forty five this morning, and the Marine Life Center is open all day with free admission. For the little ones, there's toddler time in Blaine at nine thirty and several storytimes happening at our local libraries throughout the morning. Later this evening, head down to Structures Brewing for the CURRENT Film Festival starting at five o'clock, or if you're more into games, Magic The Gathering is happening at Beach Cat Brewing at six thirty. And don't miss Monday Trivia at Zeeks Pizza starting at six tonight if you want to test your knowledge while enjoying some great food.
On the infrastructure front, we're getting good news about Mt. Baker Highway. After a four day closure, the highway has reopened, though crews are still working through a section with alternating traffic in a single lane. That closure had impacted our mountain community access, so it's great to see things moving again.
Looking ahead, there are some significant conversations happening about our future. The Whatcom County Planning Commission is urging our city to adopt concrete measures to meet urban growth requirements over the next twenty years. Bellingham is grappling with a major challenge: the city estimates it needs about 133 million dollars per year between now and 2045 to fund roughly 220 additional affordable housing units annually. Local officials are being transparent about the funding gap, acknowledging that they don't anticipate fully meeting that need without additional resources. County leadership is advocating at the state level for more flexible revenue mechanisms that could help address this housing shortage.
In other local news, Ferndale's fire department is converting five of its six stations to 24 hour 7 day staffing to improve emergency response times. It's a move that should make a real difference in how quickly our neighbors get help when they need it.
Community voices are also being heard. Ferndale Police recently answered public questions following a student protest march at the school district, with the superintendent weighing in on those important conversations.
That's your roundup for today. There's a lot happening in our community, from the immediate things to do to the longer term planning that shapes where we live and grow. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
