Subject: Easy Jet Subdivision Hearing October 15th
Are you kidding me? The owner of this zoned R-4 property wants to decrease the number of apartments from
76 to 64 — hasn't he been listening to what the surrounding neighborhood homeowners have been
saying? The homeowners have been saying 'No Apartments!'
The homeowners in Sutherland Farm, Sutherland Downs, Muir Woods and Thousand Springs, had the
reasonable expectation when they purchased their homes, that the surrounding areas would be developed in
a manner that would enhance the livability and property value of their investment.
And, the owner of the proposed project has the reasonable expectation to develop his property. He knew it
was zoned R-4 when he purchased the property. Just like the homeowners in the surrounding neighborhoods
knew the zoning of their property when they purchased.
And, the owners of surrounding properties have the reasonable expectation that other property owners will
not develop or maintain their property in a manner that decreases their livability or property value.
It is reasonable for surrounding homeowners to expect the Meridian Planning and Zoning to conduct
themselves in a manner that is best for the community, not just one developer.
Please, no apartments on Easy Jet, and, keep the proposed project zoning at R-4.

Subject: proposed project on Easy jet st.
Ms. Hill,
I would again, like to voice my opinion about the proposed apartment complex on Easy Jet St. and Eagle Rd.
see the developer is changing plans for three story apartments now and reducing the units. My biggest
objection is it doesn't conform with the surrounding area. we are located in a upper neighborhood that is
comprised of patio homes, and nice homes. There are may other considerations about additional traffic and
use of amenities the residents will surely use if this is built in the way it's proposed. Thank you Gary Lee
