Subject: 5617 Cleveland Blvd. – Annexation & Rezone Explanation
ALC Architecture is pleased to present the following site to be both annexed into the city of Caldwell and re-zoned from a
county designation to a M-1 Light Industrial Zone and a C-3 Commercial zone.
The site is located at 5617 Cleveland Blvd., south of Ustick Road and west of N. Midway Road on the northside of the
Nampa-Caldwell Blvd. corridor. The parcel is contiguous to current City of Caldwell parcels to the west and east
boundaries and last remaining county parcel along this portion of Nampa-Caldwell Blvd. The existing use of the parcel
along the southerly boundary contiguous to Cleveland Blvd. is currently an auto sales and repair business. The Moses
Drain is located along the westerly boundary and the Notus Canal runs along the entirety of the easterly boundary. The
Union Pacific Railroad occupies a right-of-way along the northerly parcel boundary. The current use of the northerly
portion of the parcel is currently open agriculture.
Current zoning adjacent and connecting to the parcel to the west and east is M-1 light Industrial. The long-range
comprehensive plan has designated this parcel as Commercial and Service. As defined within the Comprehensive Plan,
this zoning designation is intended to allow for a wide range of retail, service, professional business, storage and light
repair of consumer goods. This proposed project is proposing a mixed use of Retail / Flex along the Cleveland Blvd.
frontage with Warehouse / Flex spaces occupying the remainder of the parcel to the north. These proposed uses meet
the future land use goals of the 2040 City of Caldwell Comprehensive Plan. We are proposing a comp plan amendment to
allow an M-1 zone designation on the north and C-3 zoning designation along the front half of the property
Both water and sewer main line infrastructure is currently located along the Cleveland Blvd Corridor, connecting to the
site. This development would add more business, retail, and warehouse components to the corridor. This development is
a needed element along the Highway Corridor, providing the additional services to this portion of the city.

convenience. We thank you for your time and consideration for this project and look forward to your approval.
