Trustees trampling constitution

The current NIC Board of Trustees has made great plans but in their haste to see their dreams fulfilled they seem to have forgotten a pending lawsuit that challenges the Constitutionality of their actions. I stand ready to represent this community in reminding the Board that the exorbitant price they paid for the land purchase wasn't their money. The College, the NIC Foundation and the City of Coeur d'Alene appear to have cooperated with an irregular appraisal and an unseemly rush to zone it C17 (commercial for what?). The appraiser is a business partner with an NIC Board member who also sits on the Board of Mountain West Bank.

Deadlines loom as Congress delays action

As the June 30 deadline to benefit from the tax credit rapidly approaches, the House of Representatives takes an extended weekend.

Housing price gains continue

No doubt you’ve seen the latest housing stats from the Associated Press and other sources. You may also have noticed that recent reports are from August and September.
