U of Study Teamjaunts Plans for Sandpoint Growth and Changes
A University of Idaho professor told Sandpoint businessmen that the city could boom in five to ten years with planning, or decline if not. A 17 member student team, hired by the Chamber of Commerce, will present short term remodeling ideas for the beach and downtown areas and long term town redesigns. The study urges action to attract young residents and clean industry, noting parking and waterfront issues, possible Leavenworth style redesigns, and warns that funds must come from local pockets if federal aid remains scarce. The group will return in 4-5 weeks with sketches and recommendations.
