Hayden organizing public meeting to address Strahorn one-way status

The city of Hayden is inviting the public to a community meeting on the controversial Strahorn Road issue.

The city said it is seeking a "mutually beneficial resolution to the challenges created" when the neighboring city of Hayden Lake converted a stretch of Strahorn into a one-way between Miles Avenue and Hayden Avenue.

The meeting will be at 6 p.m. Oct. 4 at Hayden City Hall.

Multiple meetings on different levels have taken place so far between the two cities on the issue.

The city of Hayden wants Hayden Lake to restore Strahorn to two-way travel along that stretch.

In a press release, the city of Hayden said one of its goals of the meeting is to learn more about the community's concerns regarding Strahorn.

The city plans to explain why Hayden Lake made the decision to create a one-way, and lay out Hayden's jurisdictional authority and legal abilities.

The city also wants to provide an overview and some background on the issue, and discuss potential solutions.
