Former Rep. Ingram back in House, temporarily…

Former state Rep. Gary Ingram, a Republican who represented Kootenai County in the state House from 1973 to 1980, is back today, as a substitute for Rep. Kathy Sims, R-Coeur d’Alene. Ingram will serve today, Friday and Monday; Sims returns on Tuesday from an out-of-state business trip. Ingram, known as the lead author of the Idaho Open Meeting Law, joked that his daughter said he should “stir things up” while he’s here; with a chuckle, he said, “I’ll figure out something.”
