Luxury homes, marina draw concerns, questions

Deadline for public comment on Trestle Creek development Sept. 15

Proposed construction of luxury housing and a private marina near the mouth of Trestle Creek continues to draw concern, with over 200 Bonner County residents signing up to speak at the Sept. 6 public hearing on a revised plan for the development. A previously-filed permit for the project was withdrawn by the Army Corps of Engineers last year after a lawsuit was filed by the Idaho Conservation League and the Center for Biological Diversity, and residents say the new permit is no better.
