1. Levy passes; project to be lengthy (dnews.com) — Moscow voters have approved a seven-year plant facilities levy that will fund major school upgrades, including turning Moscow Middle School into a new high school and adding CTE spaces. Work won’t start for a couple years, but plans also include moving district offices and Paradise Creek Regional High School, plus improving Lena Whitmore’s HVAC, while nearby districts passed their own levies.
   

2. Board Selects Plant Giveaways, Upholds Tree Removal Rejection (moscowidaho.news) — Moscow’s Tree Commission has upheld the city’s decision not to remove a large ponderosa pine on Paradise Drive, leaving any further appeal to the City Council. The commission also picked tree and shrub seedlings for free giveaways at the 2027 and 2028 Moscow Farmers Markets and approved its annual report, which goes to council later this month.
   

3. Moscow Police Logs for November 4, 2026 (bigcountrynewsconnection.com) — Moscow’s November 4 police log details a busy day of calls, from welfare checks, fraud reports, and stray animals to several non-injury crashes around Pullman Road and Main Street. Officers also handled a reported suicidal person, a no-contact order issue, and an unfounded report of a stabbing at a food truck. These entries offer a snapshot of safety concerns and responses across town.
