The Dirt: Camping World plans expansion

The city of Liberty Lake has issued a building permit for the project with an estimated value of more than $600,000. Nampa, Idaho-based RRC Contractors is doing the work.

Camping World, based in Bowling Green, Kentucky, is one of the nation’s bigger sellers of RV equipment, camping equipment and RV merchandise.

Developer buys CdA church, land

Parkwood Business Properties, a commercial real estate development and property management firm, recently purchased a nearly 8,500-square-foot church in Coeur d’Alene on 1.5 acres. The firm intends to lease the space to Kootenai Health for employee child care services and senior care programs.

The transaction will allow Heart of the City Church, now at the 521 W. Emma Ave. property, to relocate into larger quarters in Coeur d’Alene. The church this past week bought the former Specialty Recreation building at 772 W. Kathleen Ave. that was a Bank CDA-owned property.
