From our other Sunday edit :

Six years ago, the Board of Education surprised many in Coeur d’Alene by declining to endorse the corridor concept. Three months ago, the board deferred the lease question until September, mostly to get some questions answered. Now the board has canceled the September meeting.

The delays are in sharp contrast with Coeur d’Alene Mayor Sandi Bloem’s enthusiastic assessment that it’s “the chance of a lifetime.”

To relieve the uncertainty, the board needs to schedule a special meeting, give the proposed lease its full attention and do what it takes to move a worthy project toward the finish line.
