Box 1179 Caldwell, ID 83605 RE: Canyon Springs RV Park Expansion – Caldwell, Idaho Special Use Permit Application Dear Ms. Collins: On behalf of TC Property Management LTD, we are pleased to present the Canyon Springs RV Park expansion which encompasses 5 parcels directly north of the existing Canyon Springs RV Park, located at 21965 Chicago St, Caldwell, ID 83607. With this application, the property owner would like to propose a Special Use Permit (SUP) to develop 41 additional RV spaces and add a passenger vehicle parking lot. The Special Use Permit request is consistent with the previously approved SUP while providing the necessary infrastructure, landscaping, and access to the facility.134 Site Information The property used for expansion and the parking lot encompasses approximately 6.44 acres identified as parcel numbers R3465001000, R3465001100, R34949014A0, R3494901400, and R34650011A0. The property is located south of State Hwy 20/26 between Gravel Lane and Spring Lake Drive. The site is currently zoned C-3 and will retain the C-3 designation. Canyon Springs RV Park currently has 134 RV parking spaces within their main area. The southern expansion of the site recently took place which added an additional 29 RV parking spaces. Within the main area of the facility is a clubhouse with a registration office. The clubhouse also includes showers, restrooms, and laundry services. Near the clubhouse is a community fire pit and grassy area, dog park, and dumpster. A fishing pond is directly adjacent to the site and provides an additional amenity to guests. Expansion Area PAGE | 2 Special Use Permit As mentioned previously, the RV Park expansion will include 41 RV parking spaces. City sewer and water will be extended to the expansion area to accommodate spaces. Each space will also have the ability to connect to power. Included with the site improvements is a landscape plan that proposes trees and boulders along the Hwy 20/26 buffer. Also included in this special use permit application is a 39-space paved parking lot which will accommodate passenger vehicles for overflow parking. Of the 39 spaces, 2 will be ADA parking spaces. A future restroom is included as well. Both the 41 RV space expansion area and the parking lot will obtain access from Chicago Street. Existing amenities for Canyon Springs RV Park will be utilized by the proposed expansion spaces. All construction will be completed per the City of Caldwell standards and requirements as outlined in City Code. PAGE | 3 Conclusion We are excited to bring the Canyon Springs RV Park expansion to the City of Caldwell. This project will complement surrounding uses, fulfill comprehensive plan goals, and provide additional recreation opportunities to the area. Further, Canyon Springs RV Park complements the City ’s vision for growth in this area and will be an asset to the community. Through providing additional RV spaces to the site, the City’s commercial users will benefit from the increase in customers to the area.
