Comments on: A Hump For The Cliffs https://boiseguardian.com/2006/08/05/a-hump-for-the-cliffs/ A different slant on the news.

Now that Skyline is going to move the entrance to their Utopia to Highland Valley Rd all the traffic is going to go down Warm Springs. Expect for those few enginerds that are going to work at Micron, but we all know most people will work in the hood. Think they’ll be grooming and manicuring the deer herd. That and shoveling the sh*t out of that waste containment trap…(which is just upstream from Boise’s drinking water intake)

Animals cannot negotiate these barriers and become trapped on the road until they are hit by vehicles. I regularly see dogs on I-84 between the Cole Rd. and Eagle Rd. exits, running down the freeway or dead on the roadway. A few weeks ago there were two deer in that stretch, which is flanked on either side by super-sized sound barriers. The area east of Surprise Valley, along Highway 21, where the requested berm would go, is populated with the Boise river valley’s remaining wildlife. Do we really want to add one more impediment to their survival to protect Ada County employees from the disaster they wrought?

Too bad none of them live on Crecsent Rim or near Harris Ranch or Hidden Springs. They did not seem to care then – why now?

The fact is that our current city officials have created the very bed they lie in. To be fair NO NIEGHBORHOOD is safe from either massive condos, cheap row houses or massive planned communities.

Mr Argyle – -welcome to Boise – the city of density that makes no sense. The city that caters to developers who do exactly what the City Council wants – build massive projects!

And by the way if you have a neighborhood plan you might as well throw it away – it means nothing….just like the Boise Comp Plan means nothing to ACHD.
