RE: CUP 11-001/1900 W. Pine Avenue
Dear Jaycee:
This proposed project appears to be well outside of Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District's
easement for the Rutledge Lateral of forty feet (40'); fifteen feet (15') left and twenty-five
feet (25') right of centerline facing downstream.
Therefore Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District has no objections to this project.
