State may sell Hayden Lake frontage

Prime waterfront property on Hayden Lake owned by the state may soon be for sale. The Idaho Fish and Game Commission owns eight contiguous lots totaling 2.57 acres on the north end of the lake near the Hayden Lake Sportsmen Park Boating and Fishing Access Area. If the commission, at its quarterly meeting in Coeur d’Alene on Tuesday, adopts staff’s recommendation to declare the property surplus, the site could sell for nearly $1 million, according to IDFG. The lots are across the road from the fishing access. Seven are undeveloped and one has an easement that was granted to a neighbor by IDFG in 1998/ Brian Walker , Coeur d’Alene Press. More here.

Question: Is the land kept public in perpetuity worth more than $1M today?
