Whitefish proposes emergency order to require permits for rallies

Whitefish City Council on Tuesday will consider an emergency ordinance prohibiting organized gatherings and demonstrations without a special event permit between the hours of 7 p.m. and 7 a.m.

The ordinance would also prohibit amplified sound during organized gatherings. If approved, it would go into effect immediately.

The potential prohibition stems from demonstrations that have taken place over the past several months downtown, often in front of City Hall at the intersection of Baker Avenue and Second Street. Megaphones and speakers have been used at the gatherings.

The city says it expects such gatherings to increase in frequency and attract more participants due to the Nov. 3 general election.
