School Plant Facility Levy Election
Voters turned down a proposed school plant facility levy on Sept. 5, 2006, with 57.6 percent voting nay. There were 5,141 votes cast. The levy, for the amount of $6,288,283 per year for two years, would have finished 45,000 square feet of construction at Kootenai School, plus district-wide pay for new buses and kitchen equipment, upgrade boilers, heating systems, phone systems and other technology.


Idaho Primary Election 2006
The Idaho primary election was held May 23, 2006, with numerous county, legislative and statewide offices up for election.

Recreation District Election Results
A special election to decide on creating a new taxing district, the Pend Oreille Recreation District, failed at the polls by an 88-percent margin, 769 for and 5,814 against, on Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2006. A simple majority would have been required to create the district, leading to the construction of the Sandpoint Centre Sports Complex, a non-profit family facility with an indoor swimming pool and a 1,200-seat ice-skating arena. The district's proposed levy rate was 0.00038 - 0.00048. That would have translated to $38-$48 per $100,000 of assessed value. In general, proponents argued the need for more healthy activities for families and kids; opponents argued the tax would hit many who won't use the facilities.

Property Tax Reform Initiative
A group calling itself Idaho Property Tax Reform launched in 2005 an attempt to pass an initiative to establish a 1% cap on real property tax, allowing a 0.8% increase in property value per year. Organizers said they launched the initiative drive due to the inaction of the state Legislature to address the state's dynamically escalating property values, which are causing a corresponding increase in assessed values and property taxes. The 2005 signature drive failed to garner the required number of signatures to place the initiative on the ballot.

2005 City Elections Results
The nine incorporated cities in Bonner County had elections Tuesday, Nov. 8, 2005.

For the Sandpoint City Council, four candidates contended for three open council seats. Incumbent Cindy Elliott was re-elected and challengers Steve Lockwood, former city Planning Commission Chair, and Helen Newton, former City Clerk, won seats. Incumbent Francis Ogilvie was edged out. City Clerk Maree Peck said the election had a high-than-normal voter turnout for a city-council-only election; 1,026 of the 3,703 registered voters cast ballots, a 27.71% turnout. That is almost as good as the last mayoral election, in 2003, when the city saw a 32.91% turnout. However, it is almost six times better than the last city council-only election, in 2001, that saw only a 5% turnout.

For the Ponderay City Council, two four-year positions were up for election, won by incumbent Sherry Blood, her fourth term, and Steve Geiger, who was appointed to the council earlier this year.

For the Dover City Council, the race was not contested for two seats. Incumbent Maggie Becker won a fifth term, and Louis Collins won a term.

For the City of East Hope, the uncontested races were decided in favor of incumbents Lawrence Moon for mayor and Paul Madden and Jerry Clemons for 4-year city council terms.

For the City of Hope, the race for mayor and two city council seats were not contested. Incumbent Larry Keith will again serve as mayor, and Jason Cordero and Philip Dreisbach were elected to the council.

For the City of Clark Fork, incumbent Mayor Tom Shields won his bid for re-election against challenger Linda Reed. Four candidates ran for city council, and winning were incumbent Brian Cantrell and Russell Schenck.

For Kootenai City Council, the race for three seat was uncontested. Incumbent David Sundquist, Crystal Clossen and incumbent James F. Macha were elected.

For the Oldtown City Council, there were two 4-year positions and one 2-year position up for election. For the 4-year terms, incumbents Anna Burns and Cliff Jones won seats. For the 2-year term, incumbent Gene Scott was re-elected.

For the City of Priest River, there were three positions up for election, two city council seats and the mayor. For the mayor's position, three candidates ran, with Jim Martin elected. For city council, five candidates were vying for two seats; incumbent Jeff Connolly and Peggy George were successful.

There are no county or state elections in 2005.

2005 School Election Results
The Lake Pend Oreille School District held an election for a supplemental levy on Tuesday, March 22, 2005. The levy passed with 59.6 percent of the 2,869 voters supporting it. The levy replaced the previous one at the same rate and will continue to provide $3.22 million per year for the next two years.

Three Lake Pend Oreille School Board trustees were up for election on Tuesday, May 17, 2005. All three seats, zones 2, 3 and 5, were uncontested. Trustees Vickie Pfeifer, Joan Fish and Steve Lockwood were reelected. For more information call the Lake Pend School District at (208) 263-2184 and speak to the clerk of the board.
