Boundary County Road & Bridge - Bonners Ferry, Idaho

Leslie Brown Stankiewicz

Shiloh Loop hasn't been plowed for the last week and a half. A neighbor, that lives right next to Hwy 95 had to clear a way so cars could get onto 95. Last time it was plowed, it was near Wilderness Rd to 95 and the corner before you get to 95, was sanded. That was the only area that was plowed and sanded. Guessing someone from the city or county lives down Wilderness. That road was plowed. Lord help us if an emergency happens and first responders couldn't get down Shiloh. No excuse for this lack of maintenance. What, is he working from home? We need someone who knows how to plow correctly. Our taxes pay for this. If he isn't going to do his job, we are demanding a refund. How much does this guy get paid?

No one answers the phone when you call too. So no one in the county works in this office?

When most roads are closed due to maintenance and repair, there is a plank or something for the neighbours to get through if there is no other access. I understand for non- residence vehicles though. In the case of Moon Shadow Rd. there is no other access to get out. Can't afford a hotel, so we are stuck. What if I had a job to go to and it didn't happen till 11:00 am? In this case I had a Dr's appt at 11:00. The problem is I got mad at the complete stupidity of how they were going about the job and then the guy handling the digger made a threatening remark as to where I lived afterwards. I of course called dispatch and reported the guy and also called the person in charge of this ridiculous road mess. Like I said, No access does not mean for the residents usually. They could have put a plank over the one area they had finished to let residents through. My favourite is when the guy working told me they had put up signs and asked if I could read a sign. This is stupidity in action.
