Re: Case # SUB-141E-06
Howell Murdoch & Mason & Stanfield extension request
Dear City Council Commissioners,
I would like to voice my neighborhood's concerns as to the extension on the Sienna Hills Subdivision
We have been affected by this subdivision and its owner Kevin Howell directly. He removed all irriSation
ditches off of the McNeilly lateral and refuses to maintain a ditch to allow our water riBhts to our
properties. I have spoken at length to Jeff McFredrick in the city engineering department and he
explained that the City would not si8n off on this subdivision project since thsy arE not in compliance
with City Regulations. The city inspector tried numerous times to coordinate water drainage from the
Sienna Hills subdivision to allow for our water before any home were built on the Florida avenue side, to
no avail as to this matter.
We have spoken to our Nampa-Meridian lrrigation district, Boise Project Board of Control and the city
engineering department. They have all made callsto Kevin Howell instructing him to comply and he
refuses.
We believe that if an extension is allowed on Sienna Hills, then they are allowed to continue on their
path of destruction in our neighborhood. He refuses to maintain the idle ground, allowing weeds to
seed and germinate and contaminate all our properties. We have lived in this location for 25 years and
have never had such a horrific mess of the land around us.
We would ask for your concern in this matter, and not allow this project to continue for the sake of our
neighborhood.
nk you,
Lucile Wills Jerry Ba rtlett Leann White
