Comments on: What Is The Status Of That? https://boiseguardian.com/2007/01/10/what-is-the-status-of-that/ A different slant on the news. Thu, 11 Jan 2007 13:56:19 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Bonnie https://boiseguardian.com/2007/01/10/what-is-the-status-of-that/#comment-3950 Thu, 11 Jan 2007 13:56:19 +0000 https://boiseguardian.com/wp/?p=549#comment-3950 Police station; Yes there is a need for a newer bigger station house. I`m sure that the city property at 25th and 29th along fairview have a very high prime value. I don`t understand why the city doesn`t attemp to trade it for one of the vacant commerical buildings around the city.

Having recently traveled on emerld st. between cole & 5 mile I see a fair number of vacant commerical buildings. It would seem that some kind of a trade could be done that would solve the problem. Maybe the city needs to also consider that just one station house is not the way to go.

Perhaps having a police station in east Boise & one in west Boise would work betteras the city area continues to grow. ( This is done in other cities)

I’d just like to see more objective national and international news reporting on Ch.7.
As for the gas fired coal plant and the city scheduling a bond election for an airport parking garage as ordered by the ID supreme court I think as do many of boise’s Citizens that the mayor and Council owe us an explanation as to what they propose to do!
As for the city owned land on fairview and 25’th and 29’th that was purchased with tax payers money again the Mayor and council owe us all an explanation as to what they plan to do with our resources.
As for the second worker fired at the poop farm being convicted of a crime the mayor and Coucil need to realize that their secretive personnel policies ,especially for employees that may have broken the law, need to go.
As for the fact that no bond election for a new police station ( which we need) has been scheduled or alternative financing the Citizens again want to know why the Mayor and Council don’t seem to have done anything here on a much needed Community oriented project.
I would suggest that every community oriented Voter that reads the above and wants to know the answers get on the horn or e-mail the Mayor and City council and ask them ” Exactly what have you done in relation to all of these issues?”
To call the Mayors office-PH 208-384-4422
to e-mail mayor and Council- mayor&council@cityofboise.org
