My resolutions would be that we advance our City’s relationship with a governor that seems to want to governor more than his party and just rural Idaho.

The watchdog on-line groups continue to grow and inform the citizens-ACHD watchdog and Vanishing Boise come to mind

We closely follow the big changes coming in our hospital/healthcare and university platforms – with pay for service moving on and new Presidents coming – Kustra show us how one person can make a big impact on a town.

That we start realizing why Trump came and why Dave B stays in office and take those learnings and put some teeth into the things we need to change

I am thankful for the boiseguardian.com and look forward to all the 2019 discussions

I realize that Mayor Bieter would like to have monuments in his history as mayor of Boise, but enough is definitely enough. There will be no next term beginning in 2019. Let’s make our wishes known by voting for leaders who believe in quality for Boise and not just quantity and high taxes…

EDITOR NOTE–You need some viable candidates first.

Looking forward to the unsealing of the Federal Court indictments filed here in Idaho since October, 2017. Idaho has 216 so far. Some states have thousands.

1. A Boise Mayor more interested in what the citizens think than what he does.
2. A Boise Mayor that would represent the other 49% (other then those north of the river) of the city that he ignores.
3. A City Council that would do #1 and #2.
4. A City leadership that would listen rather than ignore testimony and the concerns of voters.
5. A city leadership that would quit spending and cut tax rates and levies by 25% and cut the city budget by the same.
6. Changes to the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Boise that preserves the unique features of the south bench and west bench before they are gone due to skinny houses and apartments.
7. Removal of all Urban Renewal districts and the elimination of the CCDC.

Additionally, the GUARDIAN should RESOLVE to frequently cover the financial status of the many apartment and commercial building projects that have been built all over the Treasure Valley in recent years.

The collapse in real estate prices in 2019 will provide the GUARDIAN with many opportunities to cover the effects of the 2nd collapse in real estate in a little over a decade. Such effects may include partially completed abandoned housing developments, bankrupt housing and commercial developers, financial strain on the state and local governments, foreclosures, short sales, bank owned properties, and a surge in related unemployment as construction workers, Realtors, mortgage brokers, Tommy Ahlquist and Corey Barton line up in front of the Boise Rescue Mission for a hot meal and a cot to sleep on for the night.

Cooling off period for new construction of any kind. There is a large amount of empty commercial buildings in Boise and yet someone needs to build, build, build.

Ban right turns on red. A red light turning right means stop not look at me in the intersection and keep going and I have to squat because you didn’t want to stop. A right turn usually means use caution but since driver’s training is now computer based laws don’t mean anything anymore.

As for texting it should also apply to the police in their cars. NO EXCEPTIONS! You have a radio use it. You need a map pull over that’s why you have a lightbar.

Stop dreaming about a desire named street car. Fix the current bus system like Portland or Salt Lake and then we’ll talk.
