Box 8028 • Boise, ID 83707-2028 (208) 334-8300 • itd.idaho.gov May 17, 2019 C.Jay Coles Meridian City Clerk’s Office 33 East Idaho Avenue Meridian, Idaho 83642 VIA EMAIL Development Application H-2019-0054 FP Project Name SILVERSTONE APARTMENTS Project Location 4107 East Overland Road, south of I-84 milepost 46.62 Project Description Construct a multi-family development consisting of 112 residential units Applicant Dave Evans Development The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) reviewed the referenced final plat application and has the following comments: 1. This project does not abut the State highway system. 2. ITD has concerns about traffic impacts to the State Highway system from this proposed development. This development will gain access to the State Highway system at the I-84/ North Eagle Road interchange. The City is reminded that the I-84 corridor is already congested. This project will increase the number of vehicle trips in this corridor. The accumulation of developments accessing the State Highway system at the I-84/ North Eagle Road interchange is creating additional congestion. As the City continues to add additional trips to these corridors through development, the congestion will worsen until the roadway system is ultimately overloaded and fails. 3. Idaho Code 40-1910 does not allow advertising within the right-of-way of any State highway. 4. The Idaho Administrative Procedures Act (IDAPA) 39.03.60 governs advertising along the State highway system. The applicant may contact Justin Pond, Right-of-Way Section Program Manager, at (208) 334-8832 for more information. IDAHO TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT P.O.

ITD does not object to the construction of a multi-family development consisting of 112 residential units as presented in the application.
