Meet Lemon. Lemon came to Adams County Pet Rescue with his brother, Lime, who has since been adopted. Lemon is a male Terrier mix and is about a year old. He’s a little guy at just a hair over 10 pounds. Like all animals available for adoption at ACPR, he is neutered and up to date on all of his vaccinations. He’s a feisty little guy that loves toys and people – and playing in the snow. Visit www.adamscountypetrescue.com to find more information about Lemon or his fellow Othello pups (and cats) or call 509-488-5514 to schedule a time to come in and visit Lemon and the other pets available at ACPR. The shelter is located at 1961 W. Bench Road in Othello.

About 104 homes are planned at the former Atlas sawmill site

Teachers, nurses, firefighters and other workers who keep Coeur d’Alene running will soon have more places to buy a home in the community where they work. About 104 homes are being planned to be built at Atlas Waterfront, on roughly 10 acres that are part of a swath of land that was once home to the Atlas sawmill and is being redeveloped. Ignite CDA, the city of Coeur d’Alene’s urban renewal agency, is leading this effort.
