Re: AZ 12-012 and PP 12 -015 Tradewinds Subdivision
The Idaho Transportation Department has reviewed the referenced annexation, zoning and
preliminary plat application for the Tradewinds Subdivision at Victory Road and Locust Grove
Road. ITD has the following comments:
1) ITD has no objection to the conditional use application. The project has little impact on
regional transportation volumes and does not require any new access to the State Highway
System.
If you have any questions, you may contact Matt Ward at 334-8341 or me at 334-8377.
Sincerely,

Dear Planners:
Joint School District No. 2 has experienced phenomenal student growth in the last ten years.
Nearly every high school, middle school, and elementary school throughout the district is
operating at or over capacity. Approval of the Tradewinds Subdivision will have an impact on
school enrollments at elementary, middle school and high school levels in Joint School District
No. 2. Based on U.S. census data, we can predict that these homes, when completed, will
house 31 school aged children.
Joint School District No. 2 supports economic growth. However, growth fosters the need for
additional school capacity. Revenue support from developers of new residential subdivisions is
required for the purchase of the school sites necessary to serve the proposed subdivision. Joint
School District No.2 estimates the revenue required for the purchase of future school sites is
$830.00 per new home unit. The approval of Tradewinds Subdivision will create the need for
$32,370.00 in revenue to purchase the school sites this subdivision will require. In lieu of these
sources of revenue, the district will accept the donation of land appropriate for school sites.
Such sites will need water and sewer service available, and prior to the commencement of
construction, the district will need to pass a bond issue for the construction of schools.
Residents cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school as it may be necessary to
bus students to available classrooms across the district. We ask that you require the developer
to provide safe walkways, bike baths and safe pedestrian access for our students.

School capacity is addressed in Idaho code 67-6508. Joint School District No. 2 is currently
operating beyond capacity. Future development will continue to have an impact on the
district's capacity.

RE: Land Use Change Application - Tradewinds Subdivision
Please note the District now requires three (3) sets of plans
Dear Mr. McCarthy:
Enclosed please find a Land Use Change Application for your use to file with the Irrigation
District for its review on the above-referenced development. If this development is under a
"rush" to be finalized, I would recommend that you submit a cashier's check, money order or
cash as payment of the fees in order to speed the process up. If you submit a company or
personal check, it must clear the bank before processing the application.
Should this development be planning a pressure urban irrigation system that will be owned,
operated and maintained by the Irrigation District, I strongly urge you to coordinate with Greg G.
Curtis, Water Superintendent for the Irrigation District, concerning the installation of the
pressure system. Enclosed is a questionnaire that you must fill out and return in order to initiate
the process of contractual agreements between the owner or developer and the Irrigation
District for the ownership, operation and maintenance of the pressure urban irrigation system.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to call on me at the District's
office, or Greg G. Curtis, at the District's shop.
Sincerely,
