The City of Caldwell is requesting a comprehensive plan amendment for the adoption of a Capital Improvements Plan and Traffic Impact Fee program. The Capital Improvements Plan identifies
and prioritizes transportation projects through 2041 within the service area, which includes the city and parts of Highway District 4’s planning area. The Traffic Impact Fee program
identifies eligible roadway projects from the Capital Improvements Plan to be funded through traffic impact fees and identifies a traffic impact fee schedule. Adoption of the Capital
Improvements Plan and Traffic Impact Fee program will allow the City of Caldwell to collect development impact fees to fund impact fee eligible roadway projects. The Capital Improvement
Plan and Traffic Impact Fee program were developed in accordance with the Idaho Development Impact Fee Act (Idaho Code 67-82). Concurrently, the City of Caldwell is requesting an
ordinance text amendment to Chapter 10, Article 3, Section 10-03-01, 10-03-02, 10-03-03, 10-03-13, 10-03-14, 10-03-15, 10-02-01, and Chapter 10, Article 9 of Caldwell City Code. The
ordinance amendments are cleaning up some of the text language for clarity, amending text to include traffic impact fees, deleting the administrative citation section that was previously
relocated to another section, adding a new section for business licensing and deleting the old section referencing business permits, repealing and replacing Chapter 10, Article 9 Impact
Fee as it has been relocated to Chapter 10, Article 3, and replacing it with a reserved section for Institutional and Public Zoning Districts.
