Time to make change.
... Or prevent it.
Either way, Kootenai County voters have the chance today to show how they feel their local governments should be run.
Polls will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. for municipal elections across the county. Those include mayoral and city council races in 11 cities, plus a fire district election in Kidd Island.
The city of Worley is also asking for a $750,000 bond measure to replace its sewer collection system. St. Maries Fire District is asking for a $445,000 general obligation bond to refinance its existing indebtedness, which district officials have assured will garner no new taxes.
Individuals must vote at their designated polling place.
Folks can find their polling stations on the county Elections website, www.kcgov.us/elections, or by calling the Elections office at: 446-1030.
Voters must show ID.
County residents can register before voting, if they show one form of ID and proof of living in the related city or district for 30 days.
