Duncan Scott, an attorney representing Common Sense in Whitefish Government PAC and Rick Blake, raised several concerns in his letter regarding whether Muhlfeld was a Whitefish resident as required by state law when he ran for city council in the fall; whether he knowingly broke the law by residing with his fiancée outside of city boundaries and leasing out his in-town residence; and whether he improperly spoke with City Attorney John Phelps about how to retain eligibility for his council position.
