PARKING: A problem - and a solution
On July 8, I took my visiting grandsons to Independence Point to swim and paddle boat. On arriving at the parking lot, we gathered our things and went to the kiosk to pay for three hours of parking. My grandson tol…
WHITEHEAD: Must be the best candidate

PARKING FEES: Mr. Boe's rebuttal
It is rather insulting and concerning that the Coeur d’Alene Press mocks the elderly as “wobbly oldsters” and belittles single moms in our community. How heartless are you?
