Edit: East Sherman’s Time To Shine

When folks get together one week from tonight, practicality and ideology are almost certain to clash. The topic: What to do with East Sherman Avenue, the bedraggled eastern gateway to Coeur d’Alene. Who’s invited: If you’ve got constructive ideas, you are. Time and place: Coeur d’Alene Public Library Community Room, 5-7 p.m. In those two hours and during another public workshop June 18, a four-letter acronym is almost certain to be invoked. LCDC — Lake City Development Corp., the city’s urban renewal agency — already has been recommended by some as a primary funding mechanism for any public-private investment in that area of town. In this case, though, a new district would need to be created, and that’s not going to be an easy sell/ Coeur d’Alene Press Editorial Board . More here .

Question: Should the city of Coeur d’Alene form another urban renewal district, focused on East Sherman Avenue?
