SPOKANE, Wash. Get ready for traffic cones, electric signs and the sound of construction equipment because the City of Spokane launched its $70 million construction season today, featuring work designed for economic recovery following the pandemic and other projects.
“This year’s investment in public infrastructure will help our community during this year of recovery and renewal,” said Mayor Nadine Woodward. “Our projects will support critical utility needs and assist the traveling public including motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians while putting members of our community to work.”
The investment includes $40 million in new work and another $30 million in projects continuing from last year that will improve streets, protect the Spokane River and invest in the city’s critical water and sewer systems.

SPOKANE, Wash. If you need to travel through the Hamilton Corridor near Gonzaga, you may want to give yourself some extra time.
Construction is back up and running from Desmet Avenue all the way to North Foothills Drive. The project, which started last summer, officially resumed on Monday. It’s expected to continue through the end of spring.
There are typically 30,000 cars a day that drive through the Hamilton Corridor, making it one of the busiest areas in the city.
Over the next few months, city crews will be adding dedicated left-turn pockets and signals along six intersections within the area. They’ll also add ADA-compliant ramps at all intersections between Desmet and North Foothills. It’s a project the city says has been a long time coming and will help keep people safe behind the wheel.

The Provo City Council voted against a proposal to extend the current parking permit program in the University Garden/North Foothills area.
The purpose of expanding the permit program to portions of 820 North from 1025 East to 900 East would be “to preserve on-street parking for those who live within the neighborhood and to prevent abandoned vehicles from remaining stationary on the street,” said city planner Javin Weaver.

Soon after, he thought to himself, ‘”You know, I should try to make this.”
So he did. Booey began experimenting with spices and testing his pepper sauce with friends and family.
“And it got to the point over about three years, people said, ‘Don’t change it.’ So that’s kind of how it started,” recalled Booey.
The name Pappa Booey actually came from a friend of his son.
“He always called me Pappa Booey. And then other people started calling me that, so we just accepted it.”
What started with just pepper sauce grew into SmokeHouse BBQ, Sweet Jamaican Jerk and Sweet Chili Lime Cilantro sauces as well.
