Western Washington University (in collaboration with the City of Ferndale) held a Visioning Workshop for the Downtown area in January. The students received input from the community related to downtown uses, building design, environmental considerations, transportation options, trails and more. Since this meeting the students have worked hard to propose concepts and solutions to improve the Downtown area.
The most recent WWU course narrowed down the concepts into one Downtown Master plan. The final version is almost ready to share!
The final presentation will occur on June 5th at 6PM in the Pioneer Pavilion. All are encouraged to attend and to provide feedback.

Kyle Huebner, our Building Official, explains some of the history behind building codes and why they are important.
