It's Monday morning again, though a slipperty one, and therefore time to take a look at Saturday's Valley Voice. The first phase of the Ponderosa Ridge development south of 44th Avenue just outside the Spokane Valley city limits has been given the go-ahead by Spokane County Commissioners. The Ponderosa Neighborhood Association has decided not to file a legal appeal, but plan to keep pushing their concerns that there aren't enough roads out of the neighborhood if an evacuation is required.

Churches are apparently expanding to include popular Zumba exercise classes. Correspondent Jill Barville checked in with three Spokane Valley churches about the classes they offer.  Correspondent Steve Christilaw has a story on University High School assistant coach Dave Orndorff. This year he is coaching two of his sons and his nephew.
