<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Calibri>Just exactly why are these "much needed
renovations?" Was the lighting that was in place failing or inadequate? As to
the other improvements you refer to, do you have any kind of a breakdown as
to how many tax payer dollars are saved vs. tax dollars spent on the so called
improvements? What is the pay off over time? Or is this simply an opportunity to
snatch up a few bushels of barry bucks (read money borrowed from the
Peoples Republic of China and my grandkids) and run.</FONT></DIV>

Farmers Market to Temporarily Relocate<o:p></o:p></B></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><B><o:p> </o:p></B></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><B>June 1, 2012 (Moscow, Idaho) –<A name=OLE_LINK4></A><A
name=OLE_LINK3></A> </B>As part of a successful grant application for $96,200
under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) from the Idaho Office of
Energy Resources, the City of Moscow has contracted with Gropp Heating, Air and
Electric to install new LED lights and vintage style poles and fixtures in the
South Jackson Street parking lot. The installation will occur from June
11<SUP>th</SUP> through June 30<SUP>th</SUP>.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>During the installation and construction time period, the
South Jackson Street parking lot will be closed and unavailable for parking or
activities, including the Moscow Farmers Market. Due to a lack of
additional parking areas, this may cause some parking congestion in the downtown
core. Additionally, the Moscow Farmers Market will be temporarily
relocated to Main Street on June 16<SUP>th</SUP>, 23<SUP>rd</SUP>, and
30<SUP>th</SUP>. A map of the anticipated Market configuration is posted
on the City’s website at <A

<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The City appreciates the community’s patience as it completes
these much needed renovations.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Many improvements funded by the ARRA grant have already been
completed throughout the City including installation of LED traffic and
pedestrian crosswalk signals; purchase and installation of new fixtures with LED
lights in Friendship Square; purchase of duct blaster/camera equipment for
testing and reporting of new energy code requirements; energy code and green
building professional development training; and purchase of new light poles,
fixtures and LED lights for the South Jackson Street parking lot.
