I can see wanting the homes and commercial buildings to look cohesive, however, these are commercial buildings, not residential buildings. I have not seen mffiy, if any, commercial buildings with pitched roofs (unless they have been converted from residential buildings). I understand that the buildings would need to be 39 feet tall to accomplish this task. That would look bizarre. Having an lg foot tall building versus a 39 foot tall building seems more logical since the buildings are going to be single level. The builder has a perfectly good sketch of what would be done, it looks like a commercial building. It seems to me like the city is making mountains out of mole hills. It's not like the builder is going to put up an ugly building that would be an eyesore on Caldwell. The builder has constructed many aesthetically pleasing commercial and residential buildings, I think that her judgment would be more than satisfactory. If someone could explain why we need pitched roofs so badly in that area, rwould be more than happy tolisten' I can't think of a great reason that the roofs absolutely have to be pitched, but I would be willing tolisten if someone had a logical explanation. I think IF we want Caldwell to grow and have desirable businesses in the community, we need to have de- sirable commercial buildings in Caldwell, not odd lookin g, g1garfiic, one story buildings with pitched roofs. Best regards, Brenda Long 2306 Wood Springs pl. Caldwell, ID 83605 i( / aa Feb,14,2007 City of Caldwell Willow Falls Development Commercial Project l0h and Linden City Council, The amount of new development in Caldwell has been quite overwhehning for so many of us which makes us somewhat resistant to change. But change is inevitable and we must deal with this as best we can and always corsider what is in the best interest of Caldwell. While I've only heard one side ofthe debated roofpitch dilemma ongoing forthe WillowFalls commercial project, I'm trying to understand wtry the roof pitcf, forihe buildings is so controversial. A Flat roof seems to coincide with most other commercial buildings in and around caldwell, does it not? or are we setting a new trend? Are pitched roofr a bit outdated? And if so, does a pitched roof fit the type of architecture that professionals are looking for? And if you insist that the commercial buildings have pitched roofs, won't they tower over all of the new residential homes andw.on't tlgt b. an eyesore driving by this on 10tr? I think Willow Falls has carefullyplanned how well their residential and commercial buildings will blend, balance andflow. We all share the same corlmon goal. We are working hard as a community to restore,rebuild and revitalize Caldwell. I'm asking that you itto* Willow Falls to continue withtheir original plans regarding flat roofs o, ult commercial buildings. This is such a bigpart of history in the making...caldwell,s first gated community Lrdered uy a weuthought out professional complex. This is such-great progress for our citizens and ourcommunity and I commend the developers of wilow Fa[s! Thank you, N h-4 Elaine Derry 2805 Blaine Suite 200 Caldwell,Id 83605 o Feb, 15,2007 City of Caldwell Willow Falls Development Commercial Project Thank you, Lisa Derry 15592 Longhorn Dr Caldwell,Id 83607 o City Council, It's of my understanding that the Willow Falls' commercial project at l0m and Linden is under dispute due to the building's roof pitch and their elevatiorr. f.yirrg to gain a bet-ter understanding, I've been searching on the intemet under the city of -aHive[, trying to find something written regarding this matter. I was unsuccessful. Willow Falls wants flat roofs and you are recommending pitch roofs. I've listened to the development's reasoning as to why they are insistent on flat commercial rooft and it sounds very reasonable. But I need to know your conrments on why the city wants pitch roofs. I decided to drive our city to locate both types of commercial structures but couldn't seem to find new commercial buildings with pitch rooft. If Willow Falls is beirrg asked to comply with city standards, please explain where it,s written and where this type of commercial development exists. And if doisn,t exist, please tell me why your new plan needs to be implemented with the Willow Falls commercial project. $h,-J -(/o) ro, fuflr-,U\Jo;ru"V'S City of Caldwell 621 Cleveland Blvd Galdwell, lD 83605 455-3021 .fax 455-3050 Planning & Zoning Department Farc 467 lzl 1 Pages: I Phone:roirez ).14' C1 Re:GG: D Urgent EI For Review E Ptease Gomment E Please Reply E Please Recalcle .
