Places We've Been This Month
We hit several locations in Colorado this month!
City of Ketchikan, AK
Brian & Dylan were in Ketchikan, AK assisting the Ketchikan Indian Community on a CEDS. Weather could not have been better for gorgeous views like these. We also got to attend the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show (which we recommend if ever visiting Alaska’s “First City”)
City of Boise, ID
Brian was in Boise for a few days in conversations with a few business partners. While there, he enjoyed a pint at 10 Barrell Brewing in downtown.
City of Spokane Valley, WA
Carson attended the meeting for the Inland Northwest Partners (INP) for a session dedicated to the current economic environment in Idaho and Washington. The U.S. Presenters from Lightcast, the Idaho Department of Labor, Avista Utilities, and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco explained macro trends impacting the economy today. The conference covered a broad range of topics from AI’s impact on skills to the softening of the labor market.
City of Wenatchee, WA
As we wrap up the Housing Needs and Zoning Code update for Rifle, CO, we dropped by for a presentation of our key findings to the City.
