Subject:Ten Mile/Lost Rapids In-n-Out Consideration
External Sender - Please use caution with links or attachments.
Meridian City Hall- This email addresses the potential site for an In-n -Out restaurant located at the NW
corner of N. Ten Mile Road and W. Lost Rapids Drive. We live in the BainBridge community near the
proposed building site. As proposed, we are not supportive of the restaurant location as the intersection
(as well as the turn-in to Costco just to the north off Ten Mile) is already too crowded with an
excessive level of vehicles. Traffic flow drawn to a popular California restaurant (on top of Costco traffic)
will be even heavier at the intersection negatively impacting the BainBridge community, the Olivia
Apartment complex on Lost Rapids and the 55+ Cadence community. Vehicles headed north on Ten Mile
already take a left-turn shortcut through W. Lost Rapids to Chinden to avoid left-turn traffic at the
intersection of Chinden and Ten Mile--ACHD is aware of this shortcut as I have spoken to the County
department before. This major Chinden/Ten Mile intersection will become even busier after the opening
of the Fast Eddy's convenience store/gas station further triggering more shortcuts through our
neighborhood. The addition of the In-n-Out restaurant and public aversion to the Chinden/Ten Mile
intersection will make short-cut travel on Lost Rapids even heavier which poses material safety issues at
Merdian's Keith Bird Legacy Park frequented by neighborhood children as well as a school bus stop.
We are not supportive of the location of the In-n-Out restaurant. Perhaps a location closer to I-84 and
Ten Mile would be better suited in an expanding commercial property area better suited for heavier
traffic. Please consider our opinion in your site qualification determination. Thank you
