MY TURN: Housing crisis remains
We all have memories of how things used to be. Sometimes those memories are distorted by the passage of time and appear significantly different today. Kootenai County in 1980 had a significantly smaller population and more people have wanted to share in it. That has continued to the current time. The problem is the pie is only so large. Too many of us want a bigger piece than we are entitled to. If our community is to be economically viable and provide housing for all the people who will be here, we need to start sharing the pie. Groups such as Kootenai Connect are an essential part because it’s focus is regional. We all need that wider focus as well. We can achieve that by electing knowledgeable leaders and keeping the good ones we have. We must support leaders who offer hope and solutions not people who offer only blame.
