Ms. Hall,
Thank you so much for reaching out to me as many in our community are doing, I truly appreciate receiving
your opinion on this matter!
I believe legally, I cannot comment further to ensure I can vote on this in case it is appealed out of Planning
and Zoning to the City Council... our land use matters are handled totally on the record, so I am adding this to
the Clerk's records.
Have a great day,
Liz

Dear Mrs. Strader
I am writing to inform you of my objections to having a nightclub put in on the corner of Ustick and Eagle Road. First, I
live very near this corner and would not like to see this building put in due to traffic concerns. Traffic is already busy here
and we do not need more traffic drawn to this area. Secondly, this is not the area for a nightclub. This is largely a
1
residential area including a nearby school. I understand it is also a shopping area; however, these shops are to support
the residential area, shopping for food, clothing, etc. Lastly, these shops are open during the day and evening hours, not
disrupting the residents nearby. This proposed nightclub would be open well into the night, disrupting the residents
nearby.
Please let me know if you have any questions and please know that I am against this proposal.
Thank you,
Brittany Hall
Packard Estates, nearby neighborhood

Brittany,
Thank you for your email. I appreciate you taking time to share your thoughts and comments.
Because this project is part of an open application, myself and City Council members are prohibited from commenting
outside the public hearing. We take public feedback seriously and want you to know that I have received your email and
have read your comments.
A public hearing before the City of Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission will be held on Thursday, March 18, 2021 at
6:00pm. The Planning and Zoning Commission will make the decision on this project unless their ruling is appealed. If
that occurs it would then be heard by the City Council. While I do not have a vote unless there is a tie, any comments
regarding the project should be reserved for that public process.
Your email and my response will be included in the public record. The City Clerk has the project file available online for
review: The Oasis CUP H-2021-0004. Prior to the public hearing anyone is able to review the application materials at any
time as well as submit testimony. If you have any additional comments you are able to submit testimony in advance in a
number of ways. Please note, all forms of testimony hold the same weight. Written testimony may be submitted by
email to cityclerk@meridiancity.org or by text message by texting “Comment” to 31996. Video testimony can be
recorded in advance and sent by email to cityclerk@meridiancity.org. Comments can also be left by voicemail. Please
call (208) 288-5607 to record your voice testimony. For additional information associated with this application please
contact the City of Meridian Planner Joseph Dodson at 208-884-5533.
Thank you again for sharing your comments.
Respectfully,
Mayor Robert Simison
City of Meridian
