Where is design for city's streets, creek?

| July 4, 2009 9:00 PM

Somewhere, out there, several years ago while all the hubbub and fear mongering was running rampart regarding the horrible “bypass” and all its destruction …there was, I recall, a plan, an idea, a beautiful concept of what could or should be done to make both the downtown Sandpoint city streets and the western banks of Sand Creek a real oasis for all, both residents and visitors alike. What happened?

 Someone had spent a great deal of time and energy in their design. Maybe someone should find those plans and re-present them. Perhaps this time they would be accepted without so much negativity. I personally thought it was a wonderful concept.

Who knows, maybe we could all work together. Might as well, can’t dance.
