Surprise! Saw an article in the paper (Nov. 17) about the stormwater fee the city has been collecting for years and now it seems it might be illegal? Where do these elected officials come from? It would seem if they can divert $3.1 million to fill the Kroc Center hole a few years ago then why collect if for storm sewer water abatement? Apparently the EPA really didn't care if Coeur d'Alene was dumping excessive effluents into the river that year?
Curious at best. Then to top if off, no credit is to be given to us rate payers who, for years, paid this illegal fee? What next? It seems the federal government doesn't have anything on Coeur d'Alene when it comes to tricks. Remember this next election, people.
