condition of Whitefish Stage Road. Greer asked the Board to review
the letter and make any comments regarding whether any changes need
to be made.
Frazer suggested that Whitefish Stage Road should be upgraded from
where Seventh Avenue East North intersects with East Idaho. The rest
of the Board was in agreement.
Frazer further suggested that the extension of West Evergreen Drive
to Highway 93 should be seriously studied. He also stated that
Whitefish Stage Road, since it is a minor arterial, should be
considered for secondary highway funds and suggested adding that to
the letter. Greer stated that he would incorporate that suggestion in
the letter.
