Looking back.
Looking ahead.
The intelligence you missed last week.
The signals you need for the next.
Policy
The Zoning Stalemate
Last week's 5-hour hearing: Why Ordinance 25-25 stalled and what the 7.6% property tax assessment hike actually means for your specific block.
Trails
High-Desert Mud Alerts
The freeze-thaw cycle is failing. If you are hitting the foothills this week, stay off Table Rock and Hulls Gulch to prevent winter rutting.
Ritual
Garden City's Pop-up Culture
Saturday at 9:00 AM: The warehouse district cider-run and the Saturday market pop-up that sells out before the 10:30 AM crowds arrive.
A Note from the Editor
Cities don’t just grow — they change slowly, often out of view. In Boise, those changes tend to happen in zoning hearings, permit filings, and council agendas most people don’t have time to track.
“We’re not here to give you more news. We’re here to keep a better record.”
Boise Current is at a real inflection point. Between foothills preservation, neighborhood growth, and decisions made downtown, it’s becoming harder to tell what actually matters. Our work is simple: reduce the noise without losing the truth.
This project is independent and local by design. No corporate owners, no clickbait incentives, no out-of-state agenda. Just public data, geography, and a weekly Sunday record for people who plan on staying.
