Broadway Avenue Meridian, Idaho 83642 VIA EMAIL RE: H-2016-0021 PARAMOUNT SUBDIVISION NO. 31 The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) has reviewed the referenced final plat application for the Paramount Subdivision No. 31 north of W. McMillian Road and east of N. Linder Road that is south of US-20/26. ITD has the following comments: 1. ITD has no objection to the proposed project and does not require any mitigation. 2. This project does not abut the State highway system. 3. The City is reminded the US-20/26 Corridor is already congested. This project will increase the number of vehicle trips in the corridor. ITD has no current funding assigned to widen US- 20/26. If you have any questions, you may contact Shona Tonkin at 334-8341 or me at 332-7191. Sincerely, James K.
