CITY

OPINION

The Ada County Highway District said it could be spending more money in Meridian in the future as it sees more growth out of Meridian and the city generates more revenue than other cities in Ada County.

This week we heard from some readers who had some opinions to share on recent issues including the upcoming West Ada School District bond election and smoking in Meridian businesses.

You should take a sick day from work

M

y Valentine’s Day weekend was fun except for the part where I got sick. I couldn’t tell if it was a cold or allergies, but I rallied through it and had a good time since it was a holiday. I figured I would take some medication, try to sleep and by Monday I would be just fine.

But it was obvious when I woke up Monday I was not fine. My head hurt, my nose hurt, my throat might as well have been full of nails. Despite how I felt I got up, took some medicine and went in to the office. I typed through my drowsiness and actually made decent progress.

Later a co-worker came in and made a really good point. It was not only a risk for everyone in the office that I was there, but it was a risk to myself since I could get worse if I didn’t recover.

They also suggested I work from home until I got better. Now I haven’t taken a sick day in a long, long time, and it hadn’t actually occurred to me I could potentially work from home. So I asked the boss and he was cool with it. I packed up my field bag and set up shop on the couch back home. Normally I prefer to just tough my way through things, but with half our staff already under the weather, I decided I had made a good call.

I think people have gotten a bad taste in their mouths when it

Anyone can nominate an individual or organization for the award and any organization, business, government entity or individual is eligible to receive an Esto Perpetua Award.

Nominations should be sent to the Idaho State Historical Society, Esto Perpetua Award, 2205 Old Penitentiary Road, Boise, ID 83712. Deadline for submission is March 20.

The 2015 Esto Perpetua Awards will be presented at 5:30 p.m. June 2. Each year, the awards honor individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to the preservation of Idaho history through professional accomplishments, public service, volunteerism or philanthropy.

The ceremony and reception will be at the Old Idaho Penitentiary, 2445 Old Penitentiary Rd. in Boise.

Tickets may be purchased online at history.idaho.gov or by calling Kimberly Baker at 514-2302.

Feb. 11-17 Police made the following arrests or issued charges: 12 driving under the influence 4 possession of paraphernalia 4 warrants 3 leaving the scene 2 trespassing 2 attempted strangulations 4 possession of marijuana 1 false information 1 domestic violence in the presence of a children 1 concealed weapon while under the influence 1 juvenile beyond controlled 2 resisting and obstructing 1 domestic battery 2 reckless driving 1 possession of drugstore 1 open alcohol container 1 unlawful entry

comes to taking sick time these days. More and more people act like it’s a terrible thing to do.

The peer pressure to never take a day off can also be strong.

Even though it was rougher for me, I was grateful my co-workers had taken a break because the last thing I wanted was the flu.

Obviously not everyone has the option to take time to get well. When I met the folks at the Meridian Schools Clinic, I learned some people can’t even get time off work to go take care of their kids.

I found this to be upsetting, and it wasn’t a problem that I have experience with not having kids myself, but you don’t need to have kids to know family is important.

People should always try to take at least some time off when they get the flu or a cold or whatever. More importantly, our society needs to get back in the habit of taking time to take care of ourselves and our families.

Meridian resident involved in 3-vehicle fatality crash



A three vehicle crash in Elmore County involving two cars and a school bus on Tuesday resulted in the death of Chance McKeel, 47, from Mountain Home. Idaho State Police said McKeel had been driving a 1997 Saturn SL when he turned north onto Simco Road near milepost 7.

As he turned, he crossed the center line partially entering the southbound lane of traffic where he collided with a 1995 Ford Econoline van driven by Donald Clarke, 52, from Meridian.

Shortly after the crash, a school bus driven by Patrick Coe, 24, from Mountain Home collided with McKeel’s vehicle. McKeel was pronounced dead at the scene.

Clarke, Coe and the six students aboard Coe’s bus were uninjured. Police said Simco Road was blocked for about three hours while crews investigated and cleared the crash site.

Brainstorming new venues for Meridian T

he idea to build a performing arts center, conference space and a hotel in Meridian was born out of the need to fill a service gap for those venues in the Meridian area.

All three projects are still in their conceptual stages. But Sean Garretson with Pegasus Planning and Development, the company tasked with helping the city find economic development solutions, said the new buildings would address some need for the city.

The concepts are catalyst projects developed under the city of Meridian’s economic development plan produced in June 2014. The plan, titled Meridian Rising, was written in conjunction with Pegasus Planning and Development and is a five-year plan for the city of Meridian that includes strategies and key focus areas for development.

“We were hired to really look at diversifying the economy,” Garretson said.

Some of the focus areas from the plan include agriculture-focused real estate developments and downtown development.

One of the projects already underway is the Ventures Lab in Meridian, which means to work as an incubator for new businesses. Bruce Chatterton, director of community development for the city of Meridian, said the Ventures

by Zachary Chastaine zchastaine@idahopress.com Lab is targeted at young entrepreneurs and is the furthest © 2015 MERIDIAN PRESS along of any of the economic development plan’s initiatives.

Although there are hotels in Meridian, they are concentrated at Boise’s city limits and, in some cases, are within the Boise Auditorium District.

Conference spaces are also in short supply in Meridian, and the current concept aims to develop a space close in size to the Nampa Civic Center. To be able to be able to utilize space, the conference center and the hotel would be combined into a single facility under the plan.

The idea, Garretson said, is to be able to have events in the conference center and have visiting parties be able to stay in the hotel portion as opposed to having to stay at a hotel in Boise.

“It would be the right size for Meridian; it wouldn’t be competing with Boise or Nampa,” Chatterton said.

Garretson said the analysis of cost for the facilities was detailed. Working with contractors and landowners on the site of the concept for the new facilities, Pegasus received feedback for costs. Although Garretson said the analysis was conservative with costs, he felt the estimates were accurate.

For their initial concept, a site in downtown Meridian was chosen.

However, Chatterton said that was only an example location, and the center would not necessarily be built in that location.

“It was important to show it on a particular site to visualize it,” Chatterton said.

The example site is located between Main Street and Meridian Road starting at City Hall and ending on Pine Street.

The site was chosen to promote pedestrian activity and focus activity in the downtown area. Chatterton said while the facilities could be built anywhere in Meridian, putting it in the downtown core would be ideal.

Garretson said building in a downtown creates opportunities for other businesses with the influx of people, as well as create a better experience for the people using the facilities.

“People are going to get dressed up or get dressed down and go to a theater or performing arts venue,” Garretson said. “It’s reasonable to assume they are going to have dinner. A downtown gives you those opportunities.”

He said conference centers are sometimes built as a standalone facility in some locations, but the access to other services and businesses create a more rich experience for visitors.

A FUTURE FOR MERIDIAN All three concepts are meant to help revitalize the Meridian downtown area and help turn it in to a place where future generations will be interested in living.

Chatterton said that one angle of the new ideas was to future proof Meridian for coming years.

“Meridian needs to be more attractive to millennials; demographic diversity is important to us,” Chatterton said.

By creating a robust downtown, Chatterton said

the city is hoping to retain people who may otherwise move away from the city or out of the state in search of a city with more offerings.

There are several potential users of the new facilities. In the case of the performing arts center, there are a number of users who are already interested.

Autumn Kersey, executive director of the Treasure Valley Children’s Theater, has been one of the stakeholders of a new performing arts center. In addition to having a space to perform, Kersey said the additional space would help her business as well. The Treasure Valley Children’s Theater is an adult theater company that produces plays for kids, and the Treasure Valley Youth Theater which is a nonprofit that creates opportunities for kids to be involved in theater.

“We’re bursting at the seams in both areas,” Kersey said. “We’re in this about 5,000-square-foot building.

The two companies share this space.”

She said the company has to look for performance venues in the community. That’s a challenge, and it’s expensive. Kersey hosted meetings with other performing groups to brainstorm ideas for providing a better home for the arts in Meridian.

During the gatherings, 36 people attended five meetings and included representatives from Meridian Development Corporation, Boise Philharmonic, Capital Educators, Opera Idaho, DL Evans Bank and more.

The group found that existing venues, which are largely limited to school district buildings, outdoor spaces and venues in Boise, are often limited in size, cost prohibitive and lack specialized equipment.

The group found a need for spaces to rehearse and

yron Pardon, 26, from Southfield, Michigan, was sentenced Jan. 27 to six month in prison for aggravated identity theft and credit card fraud, U.S. Attorney Wendy J. Olson announced. Chief U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill also ordered Pardon to serve six months in a halfway-house after his release from prison, followed by six months of home detention and three years of supervised release. During his supervised release, Pardon can have only one credit card in his possession. Pardon pleaded guilty to the charges Nov. 13.

Pardon, co-defendant Brandt Stewart and others were part of a “traveling group” from Detroit that traveled to southern Idaho in December 2013, and February 2014, to make purchases at large “box

SEAN GARRETSON Pegasus Planning and Development a space built specifically for performing, as well as a structure set up to keep costs affordable. But another interest of the stakeholders was that the location be in downtown Meridian, although they said the location was secondary in priority if their needs could be met in another accessible area.

Garretson said the initial concept of the new performing arts center and hotel with conference space was envisioned downtown partly because it would have economic impacts other than people going to see performances and staying in the hotel.

Visitors to the venues would take advantage of nearby restaurants within walking distance as well as shops and help drive tourism in downtown Meridian.

Moving forward will require a lot more planning and eventually a party — whether it be a private party or one of the existing stakeholders — will need to have some interest in building the facilities. At that point, Chatterton said the concept will start to become a reality.

For now, it is important to develop proposals and create a safe environment for creative thinking on the project.

“You can see the energy when people can see it coming together,” Chatterton said.

Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council brings tougher seat belt bill to Legislature T

he Meridian Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council is a group that gives youth an opportunity to make a difference in their community, get experience in leadership and have some fun as well.

But the teens of the current MYAC are working on something that would go beyond all that. They’re working on legislation at the state level meant to help save lives.

Their bill would make it so

by Zachary Chastaine that the act of anyone under zchastaine@idahopress.com the age of 19 not wearing a seat © 2015 MERIDIAN PRESS belt would be considered a primary offense and police officers would not need any other reason to pull over the driver.

The teens at MYAC are doing more than just writing a bill and making presentations. They’re learning to work in government and defending their bill.

Marie Hardwick, 18, attends school at Riverstone International School in Boise, but lives in Meridian. She has been with MYAC for two years and works as the communications director to help coordinate between Mayor Tammy de Weerd and volunteers.

Hardwick said the teens are working with lawmakers from Meridian and getting input on their work.

They’ve also attended events such as Youth Lobby Days at the Idaho State Capitol Building.

“We were able to get two sponsors that day to back the bill and push for a hearing,” Hardwick said.

The group has learned many lessons on working with the Legislature — including persistence.

“This is our second year,” Hardwick said. “We tried this last year and we weren’t able to even get a hearing. It was just kind of just put in a drawer. This year we learned our lesson as far as research goes and wording, and who we talked to and how we presented ourselves.

We kind of went all in this year.”

The group was inspired to take on the project after hearing from Sheri Rogers and Duke Rogers who lost their son Bobby Rogers, 16, and his friend Tiffany Walters, 17, in a car crash in the Boise foothills. They, along with another 17-year-old who was seriously injured and a fourth passenger who was uninjured, were not wearing seat belts at the time of the crash. Since then, the Rogers have been advocating for seat belt use and other safe driving practices with their nonprofit organization Buckle Up For Bobby.

Hardwick said the group found the family’s story moving but many in the group had also experienced

ABOUT MYAC The Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council is open to high school level students. There is no residency requirement, but teens must have an interest in making a difference. The Meridian council has 150 active members and tackle many issues relevant to teens.

To learn more, call 888-4433 or visit meridiancity.org/myac. some kind of loss from automotive crashes as well. For some of them, it was that personal connection that drove their interest in the seat belt bill.

De Weerd said even at the large high schools like Mountain View High School, the students feel the ripples of losing a classmate, and the MYAC teens have been able to present from their own experiences when talking about the bill.

She said one major goal of MYAC was to give the teens a voice and help provide opportunities for them to be successful, but also to show they can make a difference in their community.

In addition to research and writing the legislation,

the teens have had to defend their bill in front of lawmakers. Hardwick along with Mackenzie Lawrence, 18, and Jessica Franson, 17, formed a rebuttal team tasked with defending the bill.

“We also learned that there’s two sides of passing a bill: one is fighting for it and the other is debating your bill,” Lawrence said.

Lawrence said the group prepared for questions by lawmakers by doing research and finding related legislation in other places they could use as an example for their own bill.

“They’re very specific,” Franson said about the lawmakers. “It’s important to get up there knowing a lot of info.”

Lawrence and Franson have been in MYAC for two years and serve in leadership positions within the group. Their work with the bill comes at a unique time since some of the members were able to vote for the first time in this past election.

The girls said MYAC was the place to be for teens who wanted to get involved in politics.

“Be the change you want to see,” Lawrence said.

Ada County Highway District expects more spending in Meridian T

he Ada County Highway District said it anticipates spending more in Meridian and Boise in coming years on account of increased growth in those two cities, according to a statement from the district.

Meridian had the largest expenditure and revenue of any city in Ada County except for Boise with a total of $17 million in revenue for the district and received $16 million back.

By contrast, Boise produced $34 million in revenue for the district and received $41 million in projects and services.

Ada County Highway Disby Zachary Chastaine trict Commiszchastaine@idahopress.com sion President © 2015 MERIDIAN PRESS Jim Hansen said the figures showed the importance for jurisdictions to work together.

“This annual analysis illustrates how closely linked the jurisdictions within Ada County are and how transportation investment is the thread that ties us together,” Hansen said. “This analysis reinforces how vital it is for ACHD, the cities in Ada County, the county commission and the state of Idaho to all work together to provide the best transportation system possible for all residents.”

ACHD said high-growth areas can be seen by the amount of impact fees generated in each jurisdiction. Development impact fees are paid through building permits as new homes, stores and industrial buildings are completed.

In 2014, Meridian produced the most impact fees in the county. ACHD said Meridian generated more than $4 million of the total collected fees. This accounts for 33 percent of the total fees collected.

The total number of fees Ada County Highway District received in 2014 was $84 million, and the district spent $83 million on projects and services all over the county.

in your words School bond elections Specifically, I am talking about the coming election in the West (Meridian to me) Ada School District. The upcoming bond election includes new property purchase. I drove by six of Meridian’s schools today, and I’m guessing that 10 percent, or less, of the land around the schools is used for buildings. I saw new construction in only one of the six. If new buildings are needed, why do we not build on existing district property? The cost of new land purchase plus the loss of property on the tax rolls cuts income (or moves it to other taxpayers). Also, if built on existing district property, the cost of maintaining existing property could be curtailed, as there would be less land to care for.

This is probably applicable to other school districts also.

My vote on the bond election is no, due to the above. n

Meridian should go smoke free Zachary Chastaine/MP

Projects like the construction on Ten Mile Road between Cherry Lane and Ustick are one example of projects paid for by ACHD revenues.

2014 DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES Meridian: $4 million Boise: $2.7 million Eagle: $1.8 million Star: $1 million Kuna: $546,000 Garden City: $196,000 Other Ada County: $1.8 million TOTAL: $12.2 million The district said it tapped funds retained from 2013 as well.

District spokeswoman Nicole Pineda said the district can see where growth is occurring from the number of permits it receives from any one area.

“So when we see a lot of building permits coming from one area than another there’s lots of projects in the works,” Pineda said.

Projects with the ACHD can be found within the different short and long-term plans. Pineda said projects are ranked in order of need and importance. Even if a city has a low number of permits for new projects, the district still has budgeted money for maintenance and safety repairs.

My name is Amanda Trick, and I was born in Boise but raised in Meridian my whole life! I do believe it is one of the best cities to grow up in, and I am proud to call it home! To have clean air to breathe is important to me, and I see it as a huge benefit to the overall health of Meridian. I know how dangerous secondhand smoke can be, as my grandpa passed away of lung cancer and never smoked in his life. It is an important decision for Meridian to make because no one should have to choose between a good job and good health. It is important to set a good example for the youth as well, and working with middle school aged kids, I know the impact it will have on their future health. Meridian City Council, you have my support on this action, and I know many other citizens will agree and see it as an important step to take to ensure good health for the city of Meridian. Thank you for your time! n

emphasis on health and wellness. I would like to see that emphasis continue further

by Meridian going completely smoke free in public places.

I work at a local hospital as a registered nurse. I have seen patients and been surrounded by family members who have experienced cancer. My grandmother was diagnosed with throat cancer after my grandfather passed away. She was never a smoker but was exposed to second hand smoke all their married life (48 years).

Shouldn’t we be keepers of our brothers by helping them be in a healthy environment and not be exposed to all the chemicals/carcinogens known to be in second hand smoke, such as bars and smaller businesses where it’s still OK to smoke?

There are so many unknowns with cancer but being exposed to second hand smoke is a risk factor. Therefore, shouldn’t we do what we can to prevent where we can?

Please consider this request for a smoke free Meridian everywhere!

School bond will increase taxes West Ada school district is not telling the whole truth about the source of funding for the upcoming bond. Property taxes are a product of property value and levy rate. They say that the property tax on a $100,00 taxable property value will remain at $399, saying that the levy rate will remain the same and funding will come from increased property values. All money for school bonds comes from property taxes. So if a property’s taxable value increases from $100,000 to $150,000, and the levy rate remains the same, then passage of this bond would result in the property tax of $399 on that property increasing to $600. That is certainly a tax increase even though as the district indicates “the levy rate will not increase.”

A bond may very well be needed, but the school district needs to be clear about where the money comes from.

With regards to school funding, the Idaho State Constitution requires the state to provide free education for K-12.

The state Legislature is ignoring its constitutional responsibility. Contact your legislators and insist they fulfill their responsibilities. n

Smokefree Idaho urges ordnance banning smoking

A

poll conducted by Smokefree Idaho found 83 percent of those polled in Meridian agree that all workers in Meridian should be protected from exposure to secondhand smoke in the workplace.

The information comes from a poll conducted of Meridian voters last month

by Moore Information, according to Smokefree Idaho.

“Everyone deserves the right to be in a healthy work environment and not be forced to inhale second hand smoke,” said Krista King of the Meridian Chamber of Commerce.

The survey also explored perceptions of the Boise smokefree ordinance among Meridian voters.

Voters widely believe that the Boise ordinance has been a good thing for the city of Boise, according to 64 percent of those polled.

Another 59 percent said the ordinance has made visits to the city more enjoyable, according to the organization.

This also reflects the sentiment of voters throughout Meridian that a similar ordinance should be passed in Meridian, according to the organization. Of those surveyed, 68 percent said they favor a local law in Meridian that would prohibit smoking in all indoor public places, including bars, offices and other workplaces.

Voters’ support of clean indoor air increases to 70 percent when asked wheth-

er the rights of employees and customers to breathe clean indoor air inside any workplace — including bars — is more important than the rights of smokers to smoke or the rights of businesses owners to allow smoking, according to the organization.

Erin Bennett, government relations director with the American Heart Association said the ultimate goal of the group was to bring a proposal for an ordinance to the Meridian City Council.

“We’ve reached out to a number of different groups the coalition has worked with before because a lot of people don’t realize Meridian is not smoke free already,” Bennett said.

LOCAL NEWS Touchmark chef, snow artist wins again Record numbers reported

R

ich Brown did it again.

Brown and his team won the 2015 Idaho State Snow Sculpting Competition on Feb. 6, which is part of the Winter Carnival in McCall. This is the fourth straight firstplace win for Brown.

The top snow sculpture is called “Circus Elephant” and measures 14 feet tall.

Constructed entirely of snow, the sculpture was built by Brown and two others over the course of three days.

Brown is a chef at Touchmark at Meadow Lake Village in Meridian, where he has worked for the last six years.

“I like the creativity of cooking and snow sculpting; they provide me with a creative outlet,” said Brown, who also carves ice sculptures.

“In the state competition, it’s hand tools only with no power tools,” Brown said. “We use just about anything to carve with. I have an antique 5-foot saw with really big teeth, hand chisels, and a currycomb. Every year I make a new tool to add to my collection and share with other artists.”

Brown said coming up with the sculpture idea is the most difficult part of the competition.

“I have a list of about 100 ideas that would be good for either snow or ice,” Brown said. “Then, I bounce ideas off my friends and family. My wife is the best sounding board.”

During the first week of Winter Carnival, Brown participated in the city of McCall snow sculpture competition.

Brundage Aspen Village hired Brown, and he created his first snow sculpture for the two-week event: an Olaf and Sven caricature — complete with ice antlers —from the movie “Frozen.”

The Idaho State Snow Sculpting Competition takes place the second week of the carnival. This year, Brown had the help of two other sculpture artists, including sand artist Bill Dow, who helped Brown win the 2014 competition.

Brown’s team was one of 11 participating in the 2015 state competition. As the winners, they can participate in the national contest; unfortunately, it coincides with next year’s Winter Carnival dates.

For now, Brown is thrilled with the outcome of this year’s competition.

“The weather was very challenging,” Courtesy Robin Rausch, Touchmark at Meadow Lake Village Brown said. “We had to really wing it and The sculpture called Circus Elephant was carved by Rich Brown and let the snow lead us.” his team for the 2015 Idaho State Snow Sculpting Competition.

for family shelter in Boise

T

he city of Boise’s Pioneer Neighborhood Community Shelter saw record numbers of adults and youth in January. The center recorded 440 adults and 490 youth visits during the month compared to 363 adults and 295 youth last year.

January saw temperatures as low as 6 degrees and an average in the mid-20s. The winter weather significantly impacts homeless families with children as they often struggle to find shelter and a hot meal. Over the past few years, however, the city of Boise and two local nonprofits have teamed up to share resources and meet this need.

To help families with children stay out of the cold weather, the city of Boise operates a day shelter from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. daily until April 1 at the Pioneer Neighborhood Community Shelter, 500 S. Ash St. However, the shelter only meets a portion of the families’ needs, says Paul Schoenfelder, shelter manager.

“We found that if the adults didn’t have access to food, they would inevitably take their kids out into the cold in search of a meal, which defeated the purpose,” he said.

To keep families fed with hot, nutritious food, the city of Boise has partnered with The Idaho Foodbank and Life’s Kitchen to provide meals at the center.

Meals can include soups, casseroles or a bit fancier dishes depending on the donation. Meals are usually served around 11:30 a.m.

“The Child and Adult Care Food Program provides reimbursement for the cost of feeding children under 18 in emergency shelters, like Pioneer,” said Jackie Yarbrough, program director at The Idaho Foodbank. “The kids were covered, but we had to get a

bit more creative in order to provide meals to the adults. We were able to make donated food available, but we needed someone to prepare and deliver it to Pioneer, and that’s where Life’s Kitchen was able to step in. It’s all about working together to find the solution.”

Much of the food is donated

by The Idaho Foodbank. The meals are prepared by Life’s Kitchen, and those meals are served by volunteers. A local nonprofit that provides culinary arts and life skills training to atrisk young adults, Life’s Kitchen operates a commercial kitchen and three training businesses.

Since its founding, Life’s Kitchen has provided more than 260,000 hours of job training to hundreds of young adults, and produced more than 1 million charitable or reduced cost meals.

“Our primary focus is to provide job training in the foodservice industry to at-risk young adults, and to help them achieve some independence in their lives,” said Jeremy Maxand, executive director of Life’s Kitchen. “As important are the tens of thousands of meals we make that help feed people in need, like families using the Pioneer day shelter, or the Interfaith Sanctuary.”

Last year an estimated 1,383 meals were served between December and March at the Pioneer Center; depending on the weather, that number could be higher this year.

“This has been the perfect example of how local government and community organizations can effectively collaborate, sharing resources and skills to meet critical community needs,” said Schoenfelder.

“Partnerships at Pioneer between the city of Boise, The Idaho Foodbank, and Life’s Kitchen are what make Boise a great place to live.”

The Idaho State Department of Agriculture has established a quarantine zone in Canyon County, covering an area of approximately six miles around a site near Parma where avian influenza was confirmed in a backyard flock of chickens.

The quarantine restricts

the movement of eggs, poultry or poultry products within and out of the identified zone with exemptions made for operations that obtain special permits and meet specific criteria.

On Jan. 9, a small backyard poultry flock in Canyon County was identified as having chickens posi-

tive for H5N2. That flock was immediately put under quarantine and the birds have been depopulated.

Because migratory wild waterfowl populations can carry the disease, particularly the highly-pathogenic strains of avian influenza (H5N2 and H5N8), ISDA is encouraging bird owners to

Unemployment below the national average

In November 2014, all five of the Boise area counties had unemployment rate decreases over the two year period from November 2012 to November 2014. The largest declines occurred in Gem County, down 3.3 percentage points and Canyon County, down 3.0 points.

Excluding Owyhee, all area counties had two-year jobless rate declines larger than the nationwide decrease of 1.9 percentage points.
