WOW! Imagine someone WANTING to steal Moscow water? Would we be held liable for the side effects on the children?<br> <br> _DJA<br><br><b><i>Area Man <areaman@moscow.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"><title>Message</title> <meta content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.2802" name="GENERATOR"> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2">Vision people (and illustrious City people),</font></span></div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2"></font></span> </div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2">After reading the articles in last night's Daily News (March 14) and this morning's Lewiston Trib (March 15), it got me thinking (dangerous prospect, I

The first place that popped into my head was Kansas City Missouri/Kansas, which obviously straddles the border between those two states. Then I started thinking about places in Idaho, and two jump out at me: Oldtown ID/Newport WA up North, and Fruitland ID/Ontario OR to the South. Lewiston/Clarkston would be a good example as well, but I don't believe there is much sharing of infrastructure due to the geographic seperation by the Snake River.</font></span></div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2"></font></span> </div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2">Anyhow, these are probably only a miniscule few of such communities. I think the City of Moscow should look at how things are done in such cases to help guide !
them in
making this work the best for everyone, especially for Moscow. I hate to say it, but I think this development across the border is inevitable, due to the Whitman County Commission's recent turn toward retail development in the county. None of us have to like it, but wouldn't it behoove the City of Moscow to do all they can to make it benefit us as much as possible over here on the east side of the border? </font></span></div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2"></font></span> </div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2">Starting to hear a sucking sound from the west . . .</font></span></div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2"></font></span> </div> <div><span class="562121417-15032006"><font color="#800000" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2">Dan
