SANDPOINT, Idaho - Lake Pend Oreille is the biggest summer attraction for Sandpoint. Residents are worried about potential low water levels in the lake this summer season.
The closure of Boyer Avenue past the railroad tracks has been the talk of the town.
Is the road work a city project? A county project?
Nope, it's a Sandpoint Airport project.
The first phase of the Division Avenue corridor improvement project got the green light from the Sandpoint City Council on Wednesday.
In a unanimous 6-0 vote, the board approved the project's scope of work, and directed city staff to finalize construction documents. The proejct would then go to bid.
The city expects to award the bid in May, with construction set to start after June 12 when school is out for the year. It would be completed by Sept. 1 before school resumes.
