Building a Resilient Future for the West Central Mountains

Why This Matters

The West Central Mountains (WCM) region—covering Valley County, New Meadows, and Meadows Valley—is a place of incredible natural beauty, strong communities, and a high quality of life. However, rapid growth, rising housing costs, infrastructure challenges, and increasing environmental risks threaten the region’s long-term resilience. Resilience isn’t just about recovering from challenges—it’s about ensuring our communities can adapt and thrive in the face of change. That means strengthening our economy, preparing for natural hazards like wildfires and floods, and ensuring essential services like housing, utilities, and healthcare are accessible to all.
