Nelson To Try Again For Commish

Item: Nelson to try again to land a county commissioner seat /Alecia Warren, Coeur d’Alene Press

More Info: “I’ve been the construction administrator on multi-million dollar projects,” she said. “I’ve employed consultants, subcontractors, other individuals. It might sound like a small thing to some people, but it’s a lot of work.” Her political background is at the grassroots level, she said, like fighting issues of water quality and traffic around her neighborhood south of Coeur d’Alene in the Rockford Bay area. She is also forming a coalition to battle the county’s plans to close rural dump sites.

Question: Nelson finished strongly last time in a three-way race. Commissioners Rick Currie and Rich Piazza are up for re-election this time. Do you think county residents will vote for change?
