“[King, who has lived in Idaho for 28 years, said she is proud of rural Custer County and noted that she still votes by paper ballot in the nearby town of Clayton. A sign near her house says] Welcome to Challis, Gateway to Wilderness. ... It does not say 'Gateway to Off-Road Vehicle Trails.'”

“I don't want to see agricultural pursuits unfairly restricted because of conflicts with residents who choose to live in rural areas. This has to be balanced with the fact that Americans pride themselves on our liberty, freedom and respect for others and property rights of others. Government and taxpayers have the right to expect that those profiting from development must also pay for the infrastructure expenses arising from such development.”
Roger Henderson
“Aside from the unexpected slump in non-rural goods, we note that imports are still strong in capital, so the business investment theme is still alive and well.”
Annette Beacher
“You still want to keep the county relatively rural, so that it's an attractive place to live.”
Lisa J. Morina

Dave Barry
“When you're looking at sustainable development there's no 'one size fits all' solution. It depends how rural, how urban, how traditional, how literate, there are so many factors that come into it. Sustainable development is an ecosystem problem.”
