‘Mayor Gookin’ Visits LCDC

Huckleberries hears ... that there was a fun exchange at the end of the joint meeting between the Coeur d'Alene City Council and the Lake City Development Corporation today. Seems Councilman Dan Gookin asked the LCDC if there were any issues that would impede the future work of the urban renewal agency. With skipping a beat (and we paraphrase), LCDC board member Dave Patzer said: “Well, yeah. You said if elected mayor, you’d kill the LCDC. That’s a major mine field for us.”
