Subject: I support the Linder Village proposal
Dear Meridian City Council & Planning Officials:
I urge your strong support for the Linder Village proposal. This mixed-
use proposal will create an exciting new atmosphere for shopping and
dining that the community will enjoy as well as a new residential
neighborhood close to amenities in high demand. The Meridian
Comprehensive Plan recommends services such as grocery stores within
walking distance of residential communities. The Comprehensive Plan
also urges the provision of housing options close to employment and
shopping centers. Linder Village is supportive of these guidelines. This
proposal is also an opportunity for private development to facilitate road
improvements that the corridor needs. The traffic improvements that are
included as part of the Linder Village proposal will help increase
mobility and safety for drivers and pedestrians at and around one of the
corridor's major arterial intersections. Finally, Linder Village will
promote economic development to position Meridian for success for
decades to come. The proposal will create jobs and generate substantial
tax revenue to help fund vital City services. Existing businesses will
also benefit from opportunities to attract new customers living at Linder
Village. Ultimately, Linder Village is a proposal that will proudly serve
the community, and I urge your strong support to help ensure this
project becomes a reality.
Sincerely,
Christina Samsal 3976 N Park Crossing Ave ZIP Code: 83646 (208)
