A Local Improvement District, or LID, is a method the City uses to cover the cost of expenses for improvements to localized projects like sidewalks and street curbs.
Imagine for a moment... The year is 1911. There are no motorized vehicles. No motorized machines. No electrical tools or any of today's modern conveniences. In that year, working in those conditions, while also dealing with inconveniences like weather and other hazards, a team of citizens came together to build the Rexburg Tabernacle in ONLY 8 MONTHS! This feat is noteworthy for many reasons, but its completion is a testament to the community and legacy of the building that is Still Standing here in Rexburg over a century later. We'll be sharing this story and more over the next few weeks. We hope you stay tuned and enjoy...Tabernacle Tuesday. 📷: historical photo of people gathered to watch men working to lay the cornerstone of the Tabernacle in Rexburg, dated 1911
