Subject:City Council Meeting of December 5, 2017: Matter H-2017-0104
To Meridian City Clerk:
I write with regard to the matter listed on the agenda for the Meridian City Council Meeting of
December 5,2017: Public Hearing Continued from November 28, 2017 for Movado Greens Subdivision
(H-2017-0104) by DevCo, LLC located on the south side of E. Overland Road between S. Topaz Way
and S. Cloverdale Road 1, and ask that this correspondence be made a matter of record for the
referenced meeting.
My wife Barbara and I are residents of Muir Woods subdivision, which is located immediately to the
south of the Movado subdivision. While we understand that the Movado development plan has
already been approved by Meridian City, and that construction work has begun, we do have
continuing concerns about the likelihood of increase vehicle traffic through Sutherland Farms and
Muir Woods subdivisions as a direct result of the additional 762 dwelling units that may be
constructed in the near future (430 in the original Movado, 112 in the modified Silverstone
Apartments, 96 additional units in Movado Greens, and potentially 124 in the proposed Copper Point
Apartments). We firmly believe that the lack of direct access from the Movado-area developments to
South Cloverdale Road will result in many of the new residents using existing streets through
Sutherland Farms and Muir Woods to access Cloverdale Road and/or Victory Road, and that such
additional traffic will be a nuisance to existing residents as well as a danger to children and other
pedestrians in the existing subdivisions. We ask that the City Council reconsider the request from
residents of Muir Woods and Sutherland Farms to require the developer to provide (and ACHD to
allow) direct vehicular access from Movado to South Cloverdale Road in order to minimize the
amount of additional traffic that will make its way through the existing subdivisions.
Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,
Mark R. Kailer
