Subject Support for Meridian Costco
Message First of all, my husband and I are all for Costco opening a location at Chinden
Boulevard and Ten Mile Road. We recently moved to Meridian from Lehi, UT, where
we lived in the neighborhood that shared a border with the Costco in Lehi. Our home
was about 3 streets north of Costco, but we pretty much know everyone (within the
Lehi city limits, a couple houses are in American Fork city limits) that shares their
backyard fence with Costco and Lowes. I know from talking with these friends that,
one, their houses were built after Costco had been operating for several years, and
they still bought their homes. Two, Costco has been a good neighbor and has worked
with the homeowners that share a boundary by paying for a taller backyard fence to
help reduce noise from delivery trucks, and to help with privacy. Lastly, Costco has
maintained a very clean area around their property.
I mention these because I know some of the homeowners in the nearby neighborhood
in Meridian are concerned with Costco being built in a residential area. It has been
done before in Lehi, UT and I have also been to the Orem, UT location as well that
backs up to residential lots as well. I am sure there are more locations that are the
same. I realize building in a residential area isn’t the only concern for these
residents, and I hope the traffic situation will get figured out to ease their concerns.
I just bring this up to prove that this situation does exist, and probably more than the
two locations I have mentioned. I have tried to explain this to people on a
neighborhood forum, and I think it helped with some, but others already have their
mind made up.
I really do hope Costco can move forward at the Meridian location. It would be a
great location, and I think everyone will be pleasantly surprised at how nice a
neighbor Costco can be!
Sincerely,
Angie Gardner
