HAYDEN: Urban renewal worries

| April 7, 2024 1:00 AM

As a longtime resident of Hayden, I’m surprised that more people are not concerned about the accountability and transparency of the Urban Renewal District. It seems that our Hayden City Council representative, Sandy White, is right in asking for a contract stating what Urban Renewal plans to do with our tax dollars.

It seems all would agree that we want our city to be well managed, and that Urban Renewal can do some good work in fixing problem intersections, etc., but who would give a business or civic group a huge portion of our tax dollars without any transparency or accountability?
