Whitefish City Council approves contested airport hangar
Whitefish City Council on Monday approved a conditional use permit for a 5,400 square-foot hangar at the Whitefish airport despite public opposition.
Only three of the 17 citizens who commented at the meeting were in favor of the building project on the grass landing strip east of town. The opposition pointed to the loss of the viewshed, increased noise and the possibility of more development at the airport.
The Whitefish Community Development Board recommended denial of the project at its meeting last month.
