COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — Kootenai County commissioners will once again consider a proposal to rezone approximately 25,000 acres located within the Coeur d’Alene Tribe’s reservation boundaries.

About two dozen people gathered Thursday night at the Kootenai County Administration Building for a public hearing before the commissioners, who will deliberate on the matter Nov. 9.

Under the proposed rezone, some properties within the reservation currently zoned rural would be designated agricultural.

The purpose of the rezone is to preserve agricultural land, timberlands, open spaces, natural resources and the existing rural character of the southwest portion of Kootenai County.
