A project to develop shops and restaurants along the south side of the Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls is coming back to life.  The project was put on hold at the beginning of the recession.  The Times News reports today that the Twin Falls Planning and Zoning Commission will hear a presentation from representatives of Neilsen and Co. who are proposing the development once again.

In late December the Twin Falls City Planning and Zoning Commission granted a special use permit to Magic Valley Flight Simulation to construct a zip-line in the Snake River.  The vote to grant the permit was 7 to 1.  That decision is now being appealed by a resident near the affected area.
