State Highway Board by the Clerk of the City of Caldwell.
Section 3. That the basis and reasons for the overpass at 5th Street areas follows:
1. Potential growth possibilities of the Canyon hill area, which could be as high as 100 %.
2. There is no fire station the North side and that area would have to be served by the fire
I
station on the South side, using 10th as the only access to it.
3. All schools and churchesare a.: South side of the highway. School crossings on 10th tend
to slow down traffic on 10th. I�
6. There is no shoopong district on the North side.
5. The present population of Canyon 11111 is about 600 families.
6. Caldwell serves all of the rural area North and cast of Canyon Hill and that traffic would
have to be served by 10th, i
7. If you can justify an overpass in s rural area, we feel that we have every reason to feel
that you could justify one here in town. III
6. There is no employment on the North side, which necessitates travel across town to ;;et to work.!
9. There is an averai;e of more thatn a funeral a day. The cemetery is on the North side of town.
Funeral parlors are on the South side, which necessitates use of loth for all funerals.
1G. Lack of an overpass at 5th would cause congestion not only on 10th Street underpass, but
more so at 10th and Arthur 10th and Blaine and 10th and Cleveland. An overpass at 5th would relieve much
of this congestion.
11. Boise Avenue interchange is hiehly recommended, but will not serve ny cross -town traffic as
there is nothing on the North side in the immediate area, and very little, if any, potential. II I

The following co-cments were made 5s the Mayor Rrd Counc'. 1:
Mayor Simmerman:
We were as¢ured by The }Iighway Board thnt all accesses and c- ntr-ls would be
�
adequate. This is one particular instance which we do not feel adequate. My personal -ninion on this
matter is that with no overpass at Fifth we should use all our influence to have the Interstate by pass
Caldwell, 1
Councilman ?ldredge: It will be a great expense to the City to make the necessary road changes
and the City does not have the money.
Mayor Simmarman: We may have to raise the mill levy.
