Article: Coeur Terre Receives Unanimous Approval

On Tuesday, October 11, the City of Coeur d’Alene Planning Commission met for a public hearing with the Kootenai County Land Company and the public to discuss the annexation and zoning of the Coeur Terre Master Plan Development. The commission forwarded a unanimous recommendation of approval to City Council, stating that Coeur Terre is well planned and would ‘provide much-needed housing in an appropriate area targeted for growth.’  

The plan calls for a variety housing units, business space, shops, restaurants, 18 acres of public parks, 4 miles of trails, and land for two public schools.  Working with community organizations, getting public feedback, and partnering with the city to understand future needs for the Coeur d’Alene area has led to an annexation application the Kootenai County Land Company is proud to submit and eager to continue to bring to fruition.  

The Coeur d’Alene Press covered the hearing in an extensive story. Read the full article here.

Children’s Village of Coeur d’Alene

Through Architerra, we recently sponsored a table for the annual benefit auction for the Children’s Village of Coeur d’Alene. Children’s Village is a trauma responsive safe haven, restoring trust and hope for children and families who experience abuse, neglect, or are in crisis.

The pandemic has added some extra challenges to their mission in the last few years with schools closed and in-person interactions limited. The stability provided to them by Children’s Village is crucial to their ability to adapt and overcome with a warm bed, three home-cooked meals each day and loving staff around at all times.
