Fora list of the City
Council members,visit
Website Honorable Canyon County Commissioners:
www.cityofcaldwell.com
The City of Caldwell desires to return the responsibility of addressing in Caldwelrs Impact
Area to the County. This responsibility was originally requested from the County back
when there were a lot of addressing issues that had to be corrected and it was deemed
that if the City had control, the City would have fewer changes to be made when
properties were subsequently annexed in to the City. However, the addressing process
has been improved to the point where these types of issues no longer exist. Also, from
a customer service standpoint, it would be more efficient if those applying for building
permits didn(t get re-routed to the City to obtain addressing because their development
happens to be located within the Impact Area.
Department heads from both agencies over addressing have met to discuss this
proposed change. All are in agreement that the change would be in the best interest of
the agencies and the public.
It would be the Citls intent, if agreeable with the County, to present an ordinance for
City Council approval that would change the portion of City Code to remove any
references to addressing within the Impact Area. This ordinance would be timed to
coincide with a similar ordinance removing similar references from the County Code.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
'111 ( I'
Garret Nancolas, Mayor
City of Caldwell
