Newport Area Starts Dumping Houses On The Market

Newport and Old Town Area Starts Dumping Houses On The Market

Well, you were warned this would happen. There is already a rising glut of houses in the Newport area going onto the market. The increase appears to be significant.

Remax - new listings

I've also seen brand new listings on Craigslist.

It's time this entire community got very, very angry at what Washington State, Pend Oreille County and HiTest, Inc., are doing to the good people of this entire community (which includes Old Town and the surrounding towns in Idaho). They have already disrupted the lives of hundreds, soon to be THOUSANDS of people with their asinine plan to destroy our quality of life, local environment and the living standards and health of thousands of people.

Individual homeowners are encouraged to seek legal actions against the State of Washington, Pend Oreille County and local officials that have precipitated this growing glut of homeowners fleeing the area. I suspect there is a possibility that Pend Oreille County will need to file bankruptcy if we get enough legal actions underway.

Their incredible short-sighted approach to betray the trust of the people of the Pend Oreille County borders on treason. Unfortunately, the death penalty does not apply here, but legal actions certainly do. Numerous violations have now been documented here and elsewhere.

It's hard to believe I'm sure - but NOBODY wants to live next to a smelter (of any type). Why public officials did not factor in this simple fact reveals just how utterly inept and incredibly stupid they really are.

Get informed - and take action!
