IDAHO FALLS – Jim Freeman, a two-term city councilman with a family history of public service in Idaho Falls, is seeking re-election for a third term.
The 69-year-old man is one of two candidates vying for Seat 6. His challenger is James Skinner.
In a Zoom conversation with EastIdahoNews.com, Freeman cites unfinished business as his motivation for running again.
“We have a lot of things left to do. One of the things I’m really interested in (completing) — we’ve started developing a plan for a river corridor similar to what Boise has. I brought it up and we’re in the (initial) steps to follow through and develop a plan,” Freeman says.
Boise’s 29-mile tree-lined corridor follows the north and south sides of the river through the heart of the city, according to its website, and provides scenic views, wildlife habitat and pedestrian access to many of its riverside parks.
Freeman’s goal with the Idaho Falls corridor is to “protect the river for future generations.”
