The meeting at the library for the health corridor URD on March 5 at 5:30 is a vital meeting for all the citizens of Coeur d’Alene and county residents of Kootenai County by the NWPOA.

It is very important.

I support the position of our County Treasurer, Steve Matheson, who is in charge of our public funds.

I challenge all the City Council and mayor to show up and stand up and tell the citizens how they voted, Yes or No, and why they voted on council ordinance 19-1018 to spend millions of dollars on this project without a county vote. Take a public stand! Don’t sit on the fence and hide. It’s your responsibility to answer to the public.

Put the advisory vote on the May ballot or November ballot for us to decide OK?

The public deserves a yes or no from all the City Council and mayor on this issue at the public meeting. Show us your backbone! and why, OK?
