Subject:Oppose In-N-Out Location
External Sender - Please use caution with links or attachments.
As a resident of Bainbridge subdivision I am writing to ask that you oppose the In-N-Out application at
the corner of Ten Mile and Lost Rapids. The corner at Lost Rapids & Ten Mile is a uniquely problematic
location for the additional traffic load In-N-Out represents, with safety issues involving 2 very busy City
parks and 3 school bus stops within 700 feet that cannot be discounted. Currently there are 10 drive-
thrus on the Costco development, In-N-Out would represent the 11th. The City’s vision for that
development was to create retail space with a few drive thru accessories, not to create “drive thru
central” in northwest Meridian ACHD’s own study from 2017 did not envision this level of drive thru
density.
The Costco development area can barely handle the existing traffic flow. We’re concerned about traffic
getting TO and FROM the target site. In-N-Out’s ability to handle cars within their own lot is NOT our
concern ultimately I am concerned for the safety of our families and children in the area and our
neighborhood with the increased traffic that In-N-Out would bring.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
