Gathering Your Input for Strategic Planning

The BLP takes a balanced approach to electric utility management and strategic planning. We often use the metaphor of a three-legged stool with the legs representing the three pillars of our mission – Reliability, Affordability, and Sustainability – to help illustrate this.

With that philosophy in mind, the Grand Haven Board of Light & Power will be updating our five-year Strategic Plan in early 2026. The plan sets in place the framework that we’ll use to make decisions about power supply resources, operations, capital improvements, community engagement and more. As we enter into this season of planning, we want to include input from you -- our customer owners -- in shaping our plans.
