Growth task force?

Has something changed while I was in Yellowknife doing an autopsy?

I thought that by state statute growth management was the job of the county 
and local city's P & Z functions and the paid staffs that allegedly assists 
them.  In fact both Mark Solomon and Jeff Harkins recently posted alleged 
state statutes about this.  Or have those sneaky critters down in Boise just 
passed emergency legislation and changed everything?

Boy, you leave for a few hours to help cut up a body and everything changes. 
I'm getting too old for this rapid change.
