Mayor Anderson honored for work with KVRI
November 20, 2015
Last Monday's meeting of the Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative (KVRI) had the usual business and discussions on best uses of resources in Boundary County, but also one other important item on the agenda: recognizing Bonners Ferry Mayor David Anderson for his work with the group.

The Mayor "was recognized for his leadership, dedication, and support to the Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative for the past eight years," said Patty Perry, KVRI Coordinator with the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho.

Mayor Anderson serves as co-Chair of KVRI along with fellow co-Chairs Dan Dinning (a Boundary County Commissioner) and Gary Aitken, Jr., (Chair of the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho).

"It has been a pleasure working with Mayor Anderson regarding the efforts of Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative," said Dan Dinning. "For the past eight years he has brought the city to the table in a manner that is supportive of the efforts put forth regarding natural resource issues of the community, and has also worked to keep the lines of communication between the County and the City open and respectful. To accomplish the KVRI efforts, it takes the willingness and energy to come to the table and represent not just your own entity, but the greater interest of the citizens of the county as well. Mayor Anderson has accomplished this, and I thank him for his efforts."
