Reasoned Statement
Zoning Map Amendment
The proposed rezone from R-1B/AI-O (Residential: Suburban with an Airport Influence Overlay) to R-1C/AI-O/DA (Residential: Traditional with an Airport Influence Overlay and Development Agreement) is consistent with the approval criteria of Boise City Code (BCC) Section 11-05-05-4.I (Zoning Map Amendment). The subject property is designated as “Suburban”, within which the R-1C zone is allowed. The proposal is compatible with the adjacent single-family residential, and provides additional housing within the Boise city limits, reducing vehicle miles traveled as supported the comprehensive plan (Policy CC1.1). The subject property is located along an arterial roadway, where increased density is supported. The subject property is located within the Airport Influence Area A (AIA A), where new residential uses are allowed with sound mitigation and an avigation easement. As proposed, the rezone would provide an additional mix of housing and would develop with pedestrian-oriented streetscapes, as encouraged by Blueprint Boise Principles GDP N.3 and GDP N.5. The development agreement will further ensure that the proposed development is compatible with the scale and character of the surrounding neighborhood by limiting the building height to match the adjacent R-1B zone’s building height limit.
Section 4. The zoning maps of the city of Boise City, Idaho, are hereby changed, altered, and amended to include and insert the real property described in Exhibits A and B hereof in the land use classification therein described.
Section 5. That this Ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its passage, approval, and publication.
ADOPTED by the Council of Boise City, Idaho, on April 8, 2025.
APPROVED by the Mayor of the Boise City, Idaho, on April 8, 2025.
