Dear Mr. Bell:
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 the development plan 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, Mayor and Council are only able to make comments during the public hearing.
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 process.
Thank you for your comments and being part of the public process.

Subject: Rezoning property next to Challenger school.
My name is David Bell and I live in the Lochsa Falls subdivision at 2161 W Tango Creek Dr. We purchased our home here
about 7 years ago. We were nearing retirement and this home was a good investment for us if we needed extra funds in
retirement. With the commercial developments that are now being built and the LDS temple in close proximity, the
home prices in this area are finally beginning to rise some. When we purchased our property there was not anything
zoned for multi -family apartments in this area. Rezoning the property next to Challenger school, will have a huge
negative affect on that school and the property values in the Lochsa Falls Subdivision. I am all for making changes if the
changes benefit the general population of an area. This change does not benefit anyone but the developer of the
property and maybe the city with some more taxes. In this case we need to stay with the 10 year plan.
Thank you
David Bell
