Mr Borton. I am writing to you to express my opposition to the proposed action for the Challenger
Development at Amity and Hilldale here on the south side of Meridian. Its my understanding that this
project is now to the City Council for consideration. I want to express my concerns with the project and
encourage you to consider what this will do to this part of town if approved. I am not in support of
rezoning for this project as I believe it is in conflict with the Citys' comprehensive plan. I am also very
concerned about the traffic and the issue that will result from this if approved. I keep hearing that Ada
County has done a study and its all good, but here inlies the question, has anyone ever verified the study
results were in fact accurate? Actually validated the study? Not hearing anything on that.
Also, please consider the impact on the school system. We cant even accommodate the kids living in our
neighborhood at Hillsdale Elementary and now you want to add even more kids. The middle school is
planned across the street but it wouldnt even be completed 2 years from now if they started today. All
of these are I believe legitimate concerns that you as our council member I hope are considering before
you vote for this one way or the other.
Thanks for your consideration of my concerns and I really do hope you can step into our shoes for a day
to understand our position.
