To Honorable Mayor Robert Simison, to the City of Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission,
and to the City of Meridian City Council:
Many neighbors in Alpine Pointe made huge household fiscal decisions based on what streets
were named, how streets appeared, what streets were signed to be continued in the future,
and so forth. We have been rather surprised by a grassy landscaped strip by Wainwright and
Brooksburg that was never signed to be a future street nor revealed as a Commercial Collector
on their deed documentation in their title paperwork.
This is how the future CENTREPOINT WAY Collector appears on the Ada County Assessor. This
could be viewed by a prospective buyer as a common lot, or buffer, without the designation of
a FUTURE STREET designation.

This is how Centrepoint Way Future Commercial Collector has always appeared to Alpine
Pointe Residents. With the Utilities lining Wainwright, who knew this was a future
COLLECTOR Street.

We have been referred to the ACHD MSM time and time again, and this is how it appeared
online in 2016.
We have been referred to the ACHD MSM time and time again, and this is how it appeared
online in 2018, when the COLLECTOR intention was revealed to neighbors.

Moreover, in regard to the flagrant ambiguity of the appearance of N Dashwood Pl, the
naming of N Dashwood Pl, and the lack of signage and intent of N Dashwood Pl in Alpine
Pointe.
When one buys a home in a court, cul-de-sac or “Place” the inference is the roadway is one
that has limited use, and is believed to be closed to through traffic.
Without such wording as Rd, Way, Avenue, Blvd, or Street, “Place” is closed to through traffic,
or a court, or a cul-de-sac, which is what N DASHWOOD PL should always be: a closed cul-de-
sac in perpetuity.

In conclusion, most every homebuyer makes huge financial decisions based on information
available. We all bought thinking the Brickyard pad was Commercial, and that changed. We
bought thinking the future Commercial Collector of Centrepoint Way was a grassy landscaped
buffer in absence of signs. N Dashwood Pl’s name suggests it is a COURT or CUL-DE-SAC, and
residents bought in “good faith” based on the name and based on the fact there was never a
sign that said this cul-de-sac would be connected in the future.
Thank you for your time and consideration regarding the absence of appropriate signage and
the naming of streets in Alpine Pointe.
Sincerely,
Residents of Alpine Pointe
