Palouse approves Amber Ridge housing

Palouse City Council approved the final plat for the Amber Ridge housing development at its regular meeting Aug. 28.

The seven-acre, 10-lot development received preliminary approval in the spring. Last week, after the projected work from the spring was completed, Public Works Superintendent Dwayne Griffin appeared before the council to recommend final approval.

No houses have been built, only infrastructure has been put in for the spot along Palouse Cove Road on the east side of town.

Water, sewer and gas lines have been installed and paving completed. A backup pump for the wastewater lift station has been ordered.

The development is owned by Palouse Builders LLC of Newport, Wash.
