City to hold noise reduction workshop

The city of Coeur d'Alene will hold a noise reduction workshop at 12:30 p.m. Monday in the Library Community Room. It will focus on possible solutions surrounding downtown traffic noise. 

Mayor Dan Gookin, police Capt. Dave Hagar, City Engineer Chris Bosley and Parks and Recreation Director Adam Rouse are expected to attend.

Some proposed solutions include the installation of noise detecting cameras; cameras that detect speed and can extend waits at red lights; decoy police vehicles; pedestrian only zones via the closing of streets and the elimination of motorcycle traffic. 

Public comment will be accepted.
