What is the Bear Lake Valley Blueprint? It’s about our region...
... not “one size fits all.”
The future is not some place we’re going to, but a place we
are creating. The paths to it are not found, they are made.
Jane Garvey
Let’s prepare now for the future that we want to create.

primary/secondary)
• Projects building trends out 50 years• 40,000 acres • 13,300 new housing units
• Doesn’t speculate about demographic shifts, the economy, changes to land use plans, etc.

Workshops: Brainstorm the Ideal Future (a game of markers, colored tape, and a chips)
• Focused problem solving, not philosophizing
• Recognition of competing goals
• Mixed groups must reconcile differences
• Long time horizon helps find common ground
Imagine the future for your children and grandchildren…
How shall we accommodate anticipated growth?
