Does your vision for the riverfront along State Street near the Eagle Island State Park entrance include an RV Park? Mine does not. However landowner Ed Priddy, of the Rembrandt’s Coffee Shop family, and Ron Bath, developer of Winding Creek on State Street, think an RV Park is a fine idea. […]

Councilmen Huffaker and Shoushtarian both campaigned under the Preserve Eagle “platform” with me. We had three key issues during the campaign which we promised to uphold:

Yesterday I received an e-mail from the Eagle Chamber of Commerce president informing me that the Chamber had nothing to do with the Eagle Informer. Terri Bath stated that the Chamber merely sends the Eagle Informer press releases, as it does with all of the other publications in and around Eagle. She also […]
