Top issues during term (20)(Development)
Five-year HUD consolidated plan for housing funds
Brings outside money in so local taxpayers don't foot the whole bill — comparable to years of property tax revenue.
Boise State 2025 campus master plan adoption
No direct city cost; the plan is fiscally constrained to what BSU can fund over ten years.
Executive session on land acquisition and exempt records
Unknown — any acquisition costs weren't disclosed on the public agenda.
Vista Point PUD modification on Victory Road
None yet; decision deferred.
East Campus mixed-use development study
Unknown — the project is in feasibility mode with no pro forma yet.
LEAP Housing Sycamore Commons phase two expansion
The project's one-bedroom rents of about $1,200 per month were contested as the most expensive per square foot among nearby comparable complexes, though affordability is not a code criterion.
Southwest Boise commercial growth
The developer has spent over $20 million on utilities and infrastructure and prepaid $633,000 toward fire coverage; a 2.5-acre fire station site will be dedicated to the city.
Housing supply and secondary access near Micron
City-built accessory dwelling unit pilot
$225,000 from the city's housing investment funds, one-time.
Outsourced Plan Review for Micron Expansion
$3.0 million across FY 2026–27, fully covered by development fee revenue — no property tax impact.
Micron expansion and southeast Boise access
Micron has prepaid $633,000 in fire impact fees and is weighing in on an Eisenman interchange study; broader annexation costs are still being studied by staff.
Sweetwater Companies 252-unit multifamily development at 9474 W State St
A 252-unit residential project would add housing stock and construction activity in northwest Boise.
Cole Road land acquisition for housing
$1.5 million purchase price plus $15,000 for evaluation and closing costs.
Housing density dispute (CUP 25-00016)
The developer rebuilds Moore Street frontage to ACHD standards; neighbors worry about street parking and any future shared maintenance costs.
Burnett Drive cottage village annexation and density
Neighbors fear property values could drop; the developer argues the owner-occupied cottages will fill an affordable-downsizing need.
Geothermal-powered affordable housing
$1.2 million in Bloomberg Philanthropies grant funding plus a 24-month limited-term staff position.
Roosevelt Market Block Party street closure
Hillside development at 10512 W Hill Road Parkway
Boise Airport concourse and terminal expansion
The meeting documents did not state a project cost, but this is a major multi-building airport investment paid for through airport programs, not city general funds discussed here.
Time extensions for Phillippi Road apartments and Elder Street hotels
