Xr. Fred A.

Mr. Drake requested that the Board of Adjustment recommended that you re -,one this property from Residential to Commercial in order that a shopping center could be built at thst location. Mr. Drake presented his request and proposition and all of his discussion verbally, and nothing written was given to the Board, however, he did exhibit a plat drawn by Johnson & Underkofler, of Nampa, which plat the members of the Board were allowd to examine, but not to keen, and Mr. Drake took it home with him. Information volunteered orally: A complete and comprehensive shopping center, providing for stores, bank, and service stations to be financed, owned and operated by an unnamed individdual at the described location. Shopping center to 6e constructed by a Firm that is now contracting in Idaho, using Caldwell labor. Established Caldwell business firms would have an opportunity to rent space in the center if they desired to do so. Large amounts of money that might be spe6t the first year were mentioned. The sums of $900,009 and $1,250,000 were used repeatedly. That "their" survey shows that Caldwell is to become the home of retired people, many of these retired people to toms from California. Mr. Drake aboided answering such snecific questions as: Name of investor and builder Name of Contractor Source of money for construction Whether options had been secured on the land. The Bogard discussed the proposed shopnong center at length both with Mr. Drake and after his departure. The proposed location was considered. It con - sista of choice building sites and is surrounded by newer homes and is directly across Linden Street from the ground recently purchased by School District #132.
