Dear Amy,
Your email has been received by the Mayor’s Office. We appreciate you contacting us to let us
know of your concerns for the proposed changes to development agreement for the Knighthill
project. I will forward your comments to our City Clerk for the record and to be included in the
packet the Mayor and Council members receive for the public hearing. Once an application is
made, the Mayor and Council can only make comments during the public hearing process.
I have copied Josh Beach, the staff member assigned to this project. He will be able to answer
any questions you may have regarding the Modification of the Development Agreement or the
hearing.
Thank you for your comments and being part of the public process.
My Best,
Mayor Tammy

Hello-
2
I am a homeowner located in Lochsa Falls Subdivision near the corner of Chinden
and Linder in Meridian, ID.
I am writing today to dissuade you from putting in apartments or re-zoning from
commercial property to residential.
As a homeowner, we have multiple concerns as to what this would do to our
community. Presently we have added several apartments in this area so when is
enough- enough!!
We are seeing overcrowding in our schools let me add in our brand new schools.
This increase pressure seems to be negatively impacting our society.
I see several new commercial development's in our area that are truly prospering
such as Homestead Bar & Grill and Ruddy's these places are packed including
Sonic and these bring jobs for our teenager's which we all know will help make
them great contributors to our society.
It seems to me leaving this as commercial property will help decrease crime rates
and help our community prosperous instead of creating additional burden on the
taxpayers, schools, and community.
Please Vote "No" on this rezone and look forward to seeing you March 1st to hear
that!
Sincerely,
Amy Brown
