To Whom it May Concern: Please VOTE NO on the proposal to build an In-N-Out at the corner of Tenmile and Lost Rapids in Meridian. As a resident of the Bainbridge community that backs up to this location, I oppose this building site for the following reasons: The new Costco and surrounding businesses, as well as the soon to be built community just north of this location (also at Tenmile) will already put traffic above capacity for this area. Increased traffic contributes to poorer air quality in our neighborhood(s), additional noise pollution, even if it's limited to certain hours of the day, traffic congestion/delays and the potential for increased accidents and blocked roadways. Building an In- N-Out at this location makes no sense other that offering the owner of In-N-Out access to the potential reward of building their restaurant in such a highly traversed area. Please consider a different building site, potentially near the Winco on Chinden where roadways have been built to accommodate the type of traffic this facility will bring. Thank you, Heidi Bond By the way - Our family loves IN-N-OUT - But don't build one in the midst of our neighborhood. Please do the right thing! 1. 1 Charlene Way From:Josha Iverson Sent:Thursday, July 31, 2025 3:47 PM To:BRAD BOND Cc:Charlene Way; Clerks Comment; citycouncil; Mayor Office Feedback Subject:RE: PLEASE VOTE NO - In-N-Out Good afternoon, Thank you for reaching out and sharing your thoughts about the proposed project.
