Palouse retaining wall set

The Palouse city council approved a request June 26 for a retaining wall to be built at the intersection of Harrison and Sumner Street. The request was submitted by Rod Rosen, who will cover all costs to move the existing retaining wall on his property west six to eight feet.

The city will provide backfill dirt and the change was deemed by the council to allow more clearance on the street.

They will require a permit and have to meet building code standards.
