Q: Should County Delay Real Life Construction?

Item: Mayors seek delay in Real Life ruling: Cities oppose septic, want sewer master plan finished first/Erica Curless, Spokesman-Review

More Info: The mayors of Post Falls, Rathdrum and Hayden want the Kootenai County Commission to delay its final decision to allow a septic system above the aquifer and reopen the public hearing on Real Life Ministries' proposal to build a new campus on the Rathdrum prairie. In a letter signed Tuesday, the mayors urge the commission not to "unilaterally bypass" a 2005 agreement between the cities and county not to approve large projects until a sewer master plan on the prairie is complete.

Question: Should Commissioners Todd Tondee and Rich Piazza heed the mayors' call and join Commissioner Rick Currie in delaying the construction of the Real Life campus?
