State, tribe conducting survey on lake water

From Staff Reports
 

The state of Idaho and the Coeur d’Alene Tribe want to know how knowledgeable local residents are about Lake Coeur d’Alene’s water quality.

They’re encouraging people to take a 22-question survey at www.cdalakesurvey.com through the end of September.

The answers will help officials determine whether to launch a public education program, said Rebecca Stevens, the tribe’s lake management plan coordinator. The outreach could include information about how to protect the lake and what types of land-use actions require a permit.

Robinson Research of Spokane is conducting the online survey. It’s part of a $40,000 contract that also included focus groups and surveys of community leaders.

    i dont know about the lakes water quality but how about the view from the water? i hadnt been on one of those cruise boats for about 20 years til a couple years ago and got the mcmansion tour. im sure those rich people that came here and saw this beautiful area thought hey this would be a great place to see who can put up the biggest house and in my opinion….you people ruined this place with your construction and money. the lake used to be a great place to go and get away from it all so now we can take a boat tour and look at more of it.

    i guess we should have seen it coming when hagadone built the CDA hotel and golf course. when that happend i thought it was a nice place and a different idea to play golf. i had no idea that it would spread like a virus and turn that skyline into another eyesore.
