This project abuts the State highway system. 2. No direct access to the State Highway system is requested with this application and none is approved. 3. The southbound right turn lane of SH -55 (North Eagle Road) onto East Seville Lane does not meet current ITD standards. Applicant will be required to reconstruct right turn lane to current ITD standards in order to preserve the safety and mobility of the State highway corridor. Refer to ITD Traffic Manual Figure 313-4. 4. ITD plans to widen SH -55 in the future. ITD requests a 12 foot dedication of right of way along the applicant's parcel. This allows ITD to reconstruct the right turn lane in the future with no cost to the applicant. 5. Any work done in ITD Right of Way shall allow for drainage of the State Highway to be contained within the Right of Way unless otherwise provided for by the local agency. 6. Idaho Code 40-1910 does not allow advertising within the right-of-way of any State highway.

The Idaho Administrative Procedures Act (IDAPA) 39.03.60 governs advertising along the State highway system. The applicant may contact Justin Pond, Program Manager for ITD's Headquarters Right -of -Way Section at (208) 334-8832 for more information. 8. ITD has objected to two prior applications pertaining to this development and has not received any correspondence. ITD requests that the City confirm their support or denial of the advised improvements. 9. ITD again objects to the proposed development due to traffic concerns as noted in items 3 and 4. 10. Once the southbound right turn lane has been reconstructed to ITD standards and the required right of way has been dedicated, ITD will withdraw any objections to the application. If you have any questions, you may contact Ken Couch at (208) 332-7190 or me at (208) 334-8338. Sincerely, Sarah Arjona Development Services Coordinator S arah.Arj ona(kitd. idaho. gov
