In rebuttal,Mr.Mokwa addressed the following items:
• Speeding issues on Marble Front Road&Aviation Way is a Caldwell Police Department enforcement
matter.
• Aviation Road is a minor arterial and therefore designated to carry traffic.
• He will speak with development staff regarding Mr.Erdmann's irrigation drainage issues.
• The extension of Aviation Way will relieve traffic issues along KCID Road.
Mr. Mokwa concluded that he would prefer the R-3 zoning designation, but would rather see the R-2
zoning designation move forward rather than the total application denied. He noted that the R-2 and R-3
layouts were provided in the PowerPoint presentation for the purpose of layout comparison.
In rebuttal,John Carpenter of T-O Engineers reviewed the contents of the traffic study.
• The expansion of Aviation Way will relieve traffic issues on Hwy 20-26. He noted that improvements
made to Hwy.20-26 over the years have benefited the City of Caldwell.
• The traffic study was conducted in 2017. The City of Caldwell contracted with the consultant so it is
not a biased study. Hayden Homes reimbursed the City of Caldwell for the expense of the traffic
study. The consultant took current traffic counts of various locations and completed the study.
• Corridors included within the study are Aviation Way, Marble Front, and KCID Road. Mr. Carpenter
outlined the contents of the Traffic Study Executive Summary.
Mr. Carpenter concluded that grading plans would be submitted by T-O Engineers on all improvement
projects for Hayden Homes to assist with drainage issues.
Council Callsen addressed comments made about subdivision development applications brought before
City Council for approval.
In response to questions from Councilman Allgood regarding the possibility of setting a precedence with
the approval of the R-3 zone, Mr. Seable stated that City Council has the authority to grant the request,
zone the property as R-3 and effectively apply limitations that usually pertain to an R-2 zone through the
BOOK 58 PAGE 164
use of the development agreement,. He noted that in the future, other developers could see the map
designation without researching county records for a development agreement outlining the limitations.
In response to questions from Councilman Hopper, Mr. Seable reported that pursuant to Idaho Code
Section 67-6509(B) and the Caldwell City Code Section 10-03-03(5), there is provision that a published
notice must be available to the citizens prior to City Council's consideration of a material change from the
