Hi Craig,
Thank you for your comments on the comp plan. Just to confirm, if your comp plan amendment application is heard by the Council after adoption of the new comp plan, and if these changes
below are not adopted as part of it, you would like you comp plan amendment application to request an amendment to Mixed-Use.
Thanks,

Suggested Revision
I disagree with the lands designation of R2 at the area on the intersection of the proposed extension of Laster and Midland Road. To the north of the proposed site there is zoned C2.
West of the project is Adams Ridge Subdivision Zoning R2. South of the Project is zoned RP (Nampa, Idaho) proposed residential subdivision Astire Subdivision # 3. East of the Project
is Zoned IL – Lite Industrial (Nampa Idaho). Farther south is Costco, St. Lukes and a large retail development. I feel this area would be best designated as a Mixed Use area.

Hi Craig,
I am not saying you cannot continue with your application, I just wanted to inform you where we were at with our comp plan and give you a chance to look it over in cause you were not
aware of the planned update. Your roundtable was in January, which was some time ago and at that time we did not know what the proposed comp plan map was going to look like so we would
not have been able to tell you what the area might be designated as in the future. I am out of the office this afternoon but I will call you in the morning to discuss further.
Thank you,

Morgan, when we had our pre-meeting roundtable meeting, everyone gave a thumbs up and now you’re telling me it’s a no go? I’ve wasted time and effort on this project with the intent
of having this going through based on the meeting we had in the comments that were given by the Building Dept. the fire department, the sewer department Planning And Zoning and Public
Works and the highway department. I would think that I would be grandfathered in based on, the application submittal. Not have a submittal that was in looked favorably one way and now
it doesn’t meet the comprehensively that you plan to change months later. This project buffers the single-family home development to the west from a commercial entity, such as a gas
station or a car wash or a restaurant, and gives the ability of people that can’t afford a single-family home, to have a place to live and thrive, based on the proximity of other professional
buildings that are planned, or are already in existence less than a mile away. I would ask you to reconsider and please contact me at your earliest convenience.
Kindest regards,
Craig Kulchak

Hi Craig,
I am in the process of reviewing your application for Pinto Apartments. As you are aware, the project does not meet the designation in the existing comprehensive plan, which is why
you are applying for a Comp Plan Amendment. I was wondering if you are aware that the City is in the process of updating our Comprehensive Plan and currently plan to have it adopted
by Council in January and your application does not meet the intent of the new draft plan either. That means that by the time this application does go to hearing with the City Council,
there is a strong possibility that we will have a new comprehensive plan and future land use map in place that your project will not be in compliance with. The new plan proposes place
types, which are a different designation than the current FLUM uses and if passed will affect which designation you are requesting as part of this application.
I wanted to let you know that the new plan does not envision 25 units per acre in this location. Your parcel is in an area that is designated as a Neighborhood 2 place type, which
is envisioned to permit 8 units/acre and up to 12/acre if the project meets the density bonus criteria. While not approved yet, this is likely to mean providing a variety of residential
types and/or a mix of uses. The comp plan also has design information related to scale and transitions between uses. I have provided a link to the plan below and would encourage you
to read what is proposed for your parcel currently to see if you would like to modify your application in anyway in anticipation of these changes. Additionally, I think it would be
beneficial if you have comments on the plan, including but not limited to densities, place type designation across the community, and/or design criteria, that you comment on the plan
now in case you can avoid a comp plan amendment application in the future.
The proposed map can be viewed and commented on at www.plancaldwell.com <http://www.plancaldwell.com> . Please let me know how you would like to proceed with your application.
Sincerely,
