A TRANSCRIBABLE RECORD OF THIS MEETING IS AVAILABLE AT EAGLE CITY HALL Page 5 K\COUNCIL\MINUTES\Temporary Minutes Work Area\CC-07-22-08min.doc Sharon Bergmann From: Sent: To: Subject: Carolyn SUMMERS [cbsumm@msn.com] Tuesday, July 22, 2008 4:10 PM eaglecity URGENT RECOMMENDATION (PLEASE DISTRIBUTE A COPY TO THE MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL AND TO Mr. Ferguson, Chairman of the Parks&Pathways Committee) The public access path to the South Channel of the Boise River along Westover Lakes was damaged due to the high water this spring. The ground -up volcanic rock which was used to cover the ground cloth has been washed away in areas leaving the slippery cloth with deep ruts and dips. On Thursday, July 17th, we took our guests for a walk to the river via this path and I slipped down a rut on exposed ground cloth and ended in a pile of volcanic rock causing extreme injury to my leg -- puncturing a vein with additional cuts and bruises. Because of the spurting blood, I had to be carried out to a waiting vehicle for transport to St Als Emergency for treatment. May I recommend that this path either be repaired or a barricade put in place to warn others that the path was damaged and extreme caution is necessary if using it. Without a barricade or sign, the City of Eagle is inviting other accidents that could be prevented. We don't need additional expenses and liability exposure. Also, there should be another alternative to the volcanic rock which is sharp, like glass, and very hard to walk on. Please consider this recommendation.

EAGLE CITY COUNCIL PUBLIC HEARING SIGN-UP RZ-08-03 MOD - Eagle Island Crossing. LLC July 22, 2008, 7:30 P.M. ADDRESS/ TESTIFY NAME TELEPHONE/E-MAIL YES/NO? PRO/CON cc -7_-.2 .2_0e Sharon Bergmann From: DONNA K GUERBER [dsguerber@msn.com] Sent: Monday, July 21, 2008 9:57 AM To: Al Shoushtarian; Mike Huffaker; Norm Semanko; Phillip Bandy; Sharon Bergmann; Sheri Horton; Tracy Osborn Subject: A Big Deal For Little League All -- It has come to my attention -- so I thought you ought to know also -- that the West Valley Little League team of 13-14 year-old All Stars from the Eagle area won the State Championship game in Hayden Lake this weekend. The final score was 11-1. They will next represent Eagle and the State of Idaho in the Regional playoffs starting July 29th in Laguna Hills, California. Their first game will be against Hawaii, which won the Little League World Series last year. As I recall, when the West Valley team went to California a couple of years ago to represent Idaho, something special took place with the firemen and our police offers leading them in a parade down Eagle Road with horns a blaring. It ended in Merrill Park where the Mayor at the time gave them a little city recognition and got some media visibility out of it. I'm wondering if the Mayor and Council ought to do something at Council this week and see about another opportunity for some well wishing and congratulations. (It would be a nice way to bring some good publicity to the City and a chance for the community and parents to recognize our youth). The parade was quickly prepared and publicized and there were probably a couple of hundred of us folks along the route to wave -- a nice "small town" kind of thing. And by the way, the West Valley 11-12 year olds have won the District playoffs and will play for the State Championship this next weekend at Simplot Stadium in Caldwell, so there might be an opportunity for two such celebrations.

What do you value most about living in Eagle? slow development, low population, very small govemment Small town, foothills, river trail, downtown, Rembrandts. I love the small town feel — we live, work, and play within 2 miles! It was a small, friendly town when I moved here. That has been lost as we've experienced an influx of growth from other areas that seem to be trying to tum Eagle into another Ketchum. The small town feel, the people, the landscape/open space Good neighbors, low crime, orderly and clean town small town feel, no tall buildings, views of the mountains, access to quality lifestyle e.g. food, restaurants, Small community. small community with class located against the foothills, close to most everything. Quiet community that is not over commercialized. clean safe community We haven't Lived here for very long, but we were very drawn to the small town feel. The small community feel. The nice local restaurants and shops. I like that Eagle has a distinct feel as a small town within a big town. Close to the foothills. Great people. Increasing shopping and restaurant options. Natural atmosphere, wildlife, river/ponds, mountain views, Proximity to capital/university city, Small size, rural/farm land beauty and peace — excepting eagle rd Sorry, but to me it's just another subdivision outside of Boise, and that's fine with me. I don't see the need to try to duplicate what we already have available to us in a much bigger city. Small, uncrowded, pleasant Quiet neighborhoods. Safety. Community spirit. easy access to a variety of venues in both Boise and Eagle The beauty of the natural surroundings and the genuine friendless of the local people. Effort made to make Eagle accessible for pedestrians and cyclists - with crosswalks, paths, bike lanes, and Trolleys. environment, size and contrast with busy Boise Great Place to live. Events downtown. Unique eating and shopping experiences. The small town feel, the river, the scenery open space; rural feel I value the environment We have big lots and an upscale feel. Character is our biggest component.. The good people. Close proximity to culture often associated with a capital city with a university like Boise or Madison. I don't mind going to Boise for much art. 0 Outdoor recreation like riding, particularly through spectacular scenery (photography) The people are so considerate and the community has great values. great place to raise a family. commute The Eagle Pathways and the small town atmosphere. PROXIMITY TO SERVICES AND ACTIVITIES It's safe. It's NOT Boise. It's small. I believe the people who live here really do care about our city and our community. The country plan that keeps our town looking down-home classy, personable and free of trashy commercialism. The quality of life. The friendly people and the convenience of everything offered here. It's living in a small town with the small town way of life, such as our own parades, customer appreciation day and all the things that go with living here. Everyone knows and cares about others. It seems close knit. Very comfortable here. I would The small community feel but with bigger -city amenities, such as restaurants, fine arts training, recreation opportunities, etc. The fact that it seems like its own small community. I LOVE the business owned by regular families trying to raise their kids and not a place that has 500 other places in Idaho. I like seeing people and having them smile and say, "Hello". A slower pace of life. Open spaces. A feeling of "community" or a small town feeling. Eagle is a wonderful place to raise a family. Events like the Missoula Children's Theater allow our children to be part of a broader community and to get "hands on" experience. I love the small town feel. The proximity of the foot hills and access to the river and greenbelt. The variety of shops and dining and that Art is becoming a big part of our community. Small town charm and atmosphere but still very close to our big city of Boise. I like the size of Eagle and the feeling of being connected to people living in Eagle. I like the good restaurants, accessibility to shopping. Peace of mind, slower pace, security. The feeling of community. The ability to get most all things done locally, without having to leave town. Big City amenities in a small community. Quality of life, safety, and great environment for kids. It's very unique within the Treasure Valley - quaint downtown, big home lots, rustic feel, etc., versus giant traffic grids with box stores on every corner. Eagle still has a small community "feel" and it appears to me that the people in the leadership positions are forward looking and providing for quality in the changes that will happen. Open space. Great people. Safety, pleasant surroundings, lots to do, trees & greenery, culture, restaurants, interesting shops, Sat. market. Caring community. school & children friendly. the friendly people and the opportunities to participate in the many events. The rural lifestyle - the ability to own a home with acreage to have horses etc; the small town feel with friendly small businesses where you can get to know the proprietors; the emphasis on a family community The rural lifestyle with fabulous amenities close by. Growth seems to be going in the right direction now... small, homey community with a lot to do very close. Great places to eat. Beautiful. The people and the potential for a cool downtown area the quality of life and the education our boys received in the Eagle Schools Small town, easy to get around, my neighborhood My great neighbors and the ease of getting to work and businesses that I frequent. Quality of life I value the fact that we live just outside of Boise which is a very art involved city. I also value all the old and new people here in Eagle that have so much Art Knowledge and Abilities. . Working together as a group in the ARTS will allow us to teach our children the importance of art in their lives.. Without art kids lose their creativity . Small town feel, waikability, I used to enjoy the rural feel of the town as opposed to the "city life", however all of the small farms, cows and many of the horses have disappeared. This "living art" was the reason I moved here instead of Boise. The small farms that gave Eagle its small town charm has been lost to "improvements" to the city. Eagle is no longer beautiful. Sad We love the community feel and the wonderful people. Great neighborhood and sense of community Sophisticated rural lifestyle Increasingly good mix of parks, retail, restaurant and businesses A small town atmosphere with all the conveniences of a big town (e.g., medical) The home town feel Small town look, architectures, atmosphere, feeling Beautiful natural surroundings, great parks and good schools Quiet Eagle Hills Golf Course Rural atmosphere (mostly in the past) The atmosphere is great; people "care" about their community Safety, cleanliness, sense of community Currier -Ives approach in winter beautiful landscaping in summer (please control weed growth) Small town friendly atmosphere Security and excellent neighbors I valued smaller town, rural areas, safe streets.

I love the strong community in Eagle and the parks are great Close to work, great place to raise kids Walking community Small town atmosphere with small independent businesses Good people, low crime, relative small town feel (plus it's where I grew up!) The quaintness of the "old downtown" Family oriented Being a little distance from Boise Area lived in and proximity to Highway 55 to go north Slower pace It's a small community with open spaces Used to be wonderful before all the growth ruined it The small town rural atmosphere Small town atmosphere Small town, upscale feel Small town feel - yet quality people with big town attitude It's small size, clean and friendly atmosphere Walking along the river Green space, parks, river, home values, safety, landscaping (even around shops and gas stations!)

Small town feeling Small size, rural feel Quality Planning the building of businesses to make them attractive The quietness and the closeness to the foothills The vision for managed growth Structure of new building, variety of events and parks My neighbors Room to live -1 acre lots Rural area - openness Used to enjoy small, close knit community - now nearly destroyed Community - I don't know much about the arts and when they are The people and values of the community Small town, river, wee buildings, the burms along Eagle and Floating Feather Roads People, architecture, foothills, rural location, proximity to Boise Small, friendly community, Eagle water Quality of life and people Small town feel -being able to walk downtown - knowing community folks Small town living Quality of life, friendliness of residents SmaWrural community feel, ability to walk to downtown, Eagle Saturday Market Close associates here, architectural guidelines Small town feel, sense of community and safe Location and small town! Small town, yet quality feel My children are here and 2 of my grandchildren Small town atmosphere It is an attractive community Community Downtown Small town environment It's not over crowded, its small, it's the BEST Neighborliness, nice downtown, easy access to foothills Smaller community, location Independence and "old world" feeling Small town feel Small town atmosphere Safe place to live, friendly people, attractive buildings (strong architectural controls), community parades/events The people Small community Small town atmosphere, wide open spaces between homes Community - small Nice small-town atmosphere Small town atmosphere Small but upscale community with various amenities here Small town atmosphere, pedestrian friendly downtown SmaII town atmosphere Quality town, good people Quaintness Rural feel We love the whole town - the atmosphere, the people, church, etc. People/semi-rural setting Congenial neighbors, open spaces, quality of life Peace and quiet A fiscally responsible govemment Small community Open spaces, small feel, not the big city feel, unique stores, Rembrandts SmaII town atmosphere and quiet living Safety, tranquility Quiet - pretty - now ( a sort of greenbelt) Quiet surroundings High quality community Small town atmosphere, friendly people, quiet, library, Rembrandts, Eagle farmers market, the abundance of hometown stores rather than the big chains Small town feel, big city convenience Small town feel Small town feel with a large town convenience Small town feel, location Small community atmosphere, downtown allows me to walk to shopping and activities What is fast disappearing - urban feel, open spaces, small town friendliness and lack of the stress levels of larger cities. I think what the Arts Commission is doing is wonderful! Small town, walking, people/low crime, good location for skiing, safety Peace and quiet Small town feel - clean - safe My next door neighbor Small upscale rural setting What I valued most is gone now! The uniqueness of the community and activities Sense of community, knowing my neighbors and vendors Very aesthetically pleasing and we feel safe; lots of community programs we like Village environment and being somewhat pedestrian friendly Beautiful city Small town feel and variety of eating establishments Outdoor spaces for kids Convenient shopping Small town atmosphere 1 did value the small-town setting when we came here in 1974, but the city of Eagle has killed that with their uncontrolled growth policy Downtown Small town atmosphere Small town feel, next to foothills 7. What would you like to see (envision) in the future for the Eagle community? Downtown Community Center with recreation, swimming, dances, music, art, etc More well managed growth - bringing more higher end stores and restaurants to the community, more arts, continued downtown development (manage the comer of Eagle & Old State St, make downtown more of a walking community, beautify with lights in trees, arts, etc). Work to get river trail tied into Garden City. I hope that we are able to keep our small town feel amidst the rapid growth. The events like Eagle Fun Days, Eagle Country Christmas, etc. help make our community fun. Eagle is a bedroom community for Boise. I would like to see a clean, tidy town with efficient use of space - not the sprawl that is now occurring. Limited /planned growth, preserving open space, recreation trails, a usable downtown. Clean up the eyesore that is the intersection of Eagle and State Street. a writing guild or writing community None Keeping the culture in focus with new growth More open spaces, the traffic to be slowed down and all new building needs to be a good fit, both from a social as well as physical standpoint. continued improvement to our downtown area. limited growth of the foothills. more outdoor areas developed for hiking and biking I would like to see the small town feel preserved. I would hate to see big businesses take it over. Smart growth. Less reliance on cars & more focus on bikes (bike lanes), walking & public transport. Let's not be part of the traffic/pollution problem like Meridian, let's be part of the solution. 0 Also, would like to continue to see small local restaurants & shops like Franco Latino, 616, Beau Monde, Lily. Perhaps some more moderately priced? Better downtown - currently uncoordinated downtown growth and abandoned buildings. More parks (Eagle island) and better biking/hiking trails in foothills. Purposeful and art -filled gentrification of the downtown crossroads (old State & Eagle)0 Less salons/spas and more sports/recreation stores° 0 Good, healthy, reasonably price restaurants 0 0 A natural food store, Whole Foods, Trader Joes0 0 Full connection/development of the Greenbelt/Bike Path system from Boise through Eagle and west. lower costs better communication regarding programs more recruitment/promotion of new artists I'm pretty OK with things the way they are. The thing I would like the most is development of more trails and an extension of the greenbelt. I don't think the City of Eagle should provide even $6.00 per resident for arts in the community. That is not the job of the city govemment or my tax dollars. Limited growth, walkable community More cottage industries. more city events would like to see it retain its smaller town atmosphere. It is growing but it doesn't need to bursting at the seams. A quaint art village atmosphere would be wonderful. Improved sidewalks on Main Street control of size; more arts Growth in the downtown area with more shops, etc. Lots of eyesores at the moment. We don't want all the growth to go out by the River and the bypass etc. More bicycle accessibility to the downtown area, little residential growth Outdoor Theater An outdoor mall feeling. An aspen feel or a sun valley type downtown. Events that help bring the community together. We need to transform the comer of State/Eagle into something nice—a performing arts hall or something. Art the compliments rather than competes with that available in Boise. Perhaps arranging locations for productions of Ballet Idaho, Boise Philharmonic, even Shakespeare in this neighborhood. Outdoors? 0 Borrowing from BAM permanent collection. Arranging group transportation to Boise Culture. 0 Bringing Boise Residents to culture in the Eagle area. would like to see more musicals on a city level. more activities (whether it be art/culture or sports, etc.) for young children and youths to either participate in or attend. more classes/ art education Continued growth in the arts opportunities—public art, performances, classes/schools, galleries, etc. LESS GOVERNMENT, LESS TAXES, AND CONTINUE THE POSITIVE PRO BUSINESS ATTITUDE THAT ATTRACTS RESIDENTS. Not from an "arts" perspective...but I want more managed growth. Music Academy More music venues, more vendors at farmer's market. We would love to have the whole town Easter Egg hunt again. It was more of the small town feel we loved. Everyone we have talked to about it said they missed it also. Eagle needs to stay with the small town feel with the classiness it has.D Its a great place to live. More of the same. The Velodrome will be a fun and unique addition. ❑ An ice-skating rink out here would be a bonus too. would love to see a "Hailey" type feel to our town and I am one of the ones that is cringing at the fact that a TALL building will soon be built We do have an opportunity to actually PLAN what we envision for Eagle and not just throw things up because someone thinks ifs what we need. We definitely need a GOOD PLAN and soon b4 it's too late. would not like any of the above to be destroyed. D Bigger is not better and destroying the foothills would definitely destroy the Eagle "advantage". We hope that sometime in the near future Eagle takes on a commitment to both managed growth and diversity. While it is a great place to raise a family, our community also limits our children's access to range of people and ideas. would like to see our city more bike friendly. It is very difficult to ride from my home near Eagle Hills Elem. to the green belt or any of our great parks. A public outdoor pool, a theater like the Flicks. I would like to see Art teachers as staff in our grade schools and get more than 1 hr/mo.to teach our kids art skills & appreciation. I'd like to see more performing art similar but on a smaller scale to the Morrison Center. would love to see a Performing Arts Center with a theatre that would seat 600. Growth Artistically speaking, I would love to see a local quality art show, or an artist studio and winery tour. Something all our own. More outdoor cafe's. Progressive grocery store like a Trader Joes. Adding more of what makes Eagle unique - like I describe above. Becoming a self-contained community with services needed for people to live within the community boundaries. Medical services and social services will probably remain satellite with backup from a larger city.. but available at the first level. The arts may well go beyond being smaller.. and could expand with our own community performance center. would love to see a performance facility built, maybe in connection with the High School. CAREFUL GROWTH, so living is pleasant, not lost in a maze of traffic jams, noise & difficulty. 0 0 Continued support for art, culture, & education. Add to activities on landscaping, gardening & plants (tours, classes, demonstrations, etc.) Increased emphasis on open space, small and large parks, & safe outdoor areas, including walking paths. A movie theatre a more active and vital old downtown. a place that is unique and quaint and charming with fun restaurants and shopping places. More art work and events with music. Would love to see an outdoor community swimming pool (in the downtown area); better path connectivity so my teens can bike from Beacon Light to downtown safely; equestrian paths throughout community and into foothills; more casual restaurants (not fast food!!!); an amphitheater or some type of venue for theater, dance etc. An incredible, livable, walkable, downtown. Public access to parks in the hills. Larger and more affordable facilities for public events like dancing. Keep it's small town feel. A destination/gathering point for downtown, lots of shops, restaurants and enough people to sit a watch on any given day. People to stay when the Eagle Market has closed. The comers of Eagle and State to get developed! A STOP sign © 2nd on State and another @ Edgewood on State. slow the growth, if possible, and continue to offer the community activities. More shops and restaurants so that we can shop and live in this area without having to go across town for some things. Make the Eagle Saturday Market larger with more exhibitors in Arts and Crafts Keep businesses and homes segregated. Large parks not located on busy streets. I like Eagle city gatherings (such a Fun Days) when you expect to run into people you know. Clean, ecofriendly, people around ART FOR ALL.. Less traffic, more walkable routes/bike paths, more community concerts at the gazebo and in other parks, parks & rec classes Stop trying to make Eagle a Sun Valley or other such "destination" towns. There is no lasting value in losing your identity with mother nature to seek after the rich and "desirable" people. I am disappointed in how much this town has lost in its lust for change. Unfortunately, Eagle will never be the same again. You can't hide this with art! More emphasis on preserving and developing downtown versus development of big box stores. As we grow, we need some type of communal events or place to keep everyone connected. I would like to see less emphasis on large development that dilute the community. Limit/control growth to maintain livability More mixed use development, pedestrian, friendly community with art and other beautifying elements A high end entertainment scene with blues/jazz/also breaks i.e., iHop or Elmers type Bonita Hills Subdivision is in the Boise area of impact. Please annex us, Eagle, Springs, Sage Acres and Dry Creek Cemetery into the City of Eagle! Stay on track and force developers to pay ?? Keep the small town look and atmosphere. Don't become over run with subdivisions Outdoor and indoor music and theater offerings 100% ban on wood burning Eagle Hills municipal golf NO growth - none! Easier commuter drive to freeway - i.e., Maple Grove and Five Mile like Eagle Road More parks - baseball fields, continued greenbelts Better maintenance in ditch banks -road easements (weeds!) Vibrant/healthy, central district More traffic control, Tights, etc. Safe travel for children, bikes, pedestrians throughout Eagle, it's not so now Community gatherings downtown with tables along the streets for hot/cold drinks, like the old small German towns Clean fun shopping variety, fun family events Low crime, family oriented Less growth, more honesty in govemment More of same (quality of life, clean, safe, friendly) Music events, gallery, small art shops Support for ArtsWest district Would like the return of the Pumpkin Patch (off Mace Road) Stop unchecked growth More of the same attention to keeping Eagle a quality city A better understanding of and commitment to wildlife issues and land stewardship Listen to those cautioning ambitious development Less growth Planned growth, more opportunities for various activities Less saturation in housing development Winter Saturday Market Strict architectural guidelines make it biker/walking friendly Keep some rural feel while the city grows/arts/craft fairs No dollars spent for murals, sculptures, etc. in public areas! Heavily controlled growth with NO negative impact on our foothills Continue growth with emphasis on a community retaining a small town atmosphere No more box stores! Limit the height of building. Smaller unique business Less development, Tess overcrowding, low taxes Less road congestion Downtown development - I am not opposed to 3 -story buildings Art class for all ages groups Additional parks and opportunities for children's education and experiences More vibrant downtown area Stop growth Some family restaurants e.g., Perkins, Sheris, Little America - I hate noisy grills Stay small but be High Quality A performing arts theater with dance studios for Eagle Performing Arts Center Theater Less growth Bike lanes - bike lanes that connect to Boise along the Greenbelt Redirect traffic on Saturdays and special events from main street, a theater "No big city buildings," small and friendly settings Maintain small town feel, single story, not over 2 story Less growth Maintain small town lifestyle -fight gangs and graffiti markings - keep parks available/away from gangs Modernizing parts of downtown, galleries, etc. More "gathering places" in downtown. More restaurants within the core of downtown Better greenbelt Stop growing and massive building, add community pool Outdoor concerts, growth - but keeping everything nice and small feeling More compatible shopping - not specialty stores - rural settings Central in planning Keep it from growing any bigger Better planning, no more ugly "houses" along the bypass that pretend to be offices!! Large lots developments, minimum commercial Continued growth but not out of control growth, not overtaking the foothills Community theater Lots of shopping, restaurants I would like to see more employment opportunities in Eagle Better road management for traffic in downtown Eagle, more parking More concerts, public art Dog play park Improve downtown, commercial core More attractive "downtown" core, congestion Old State Street and Eagle Road will be a big problem Maintain open space Move farmers market to City Hall parking lot and out of my back yard Keep control of the growth; we are ruining Eagle Keep it with the same small town feeling More family friendly restaurants - yet nice places, tired of franchises like Meridian has Performing arts center Connect green belt completely, more restaurants and culture A recital hall More of same with controlled growth Can't envision it "Alive After Five" in Eagle! Fountains that rival 'The Plaza" in Kansas City, MO Continuation of rural atmosphere Controlled equitable growth; continued arts support Keep it "small town" feel An emphasis on sustainability - the arts commission should promote this Controlled growth with good pre -planning Continue to grow in a positive direction; accounting for limited infrastructure, listen to the voters A 8m movie place like the Flicks in our Eagle downtown area, more good places to eat - no pizza or fast food Outdoor movies for community City square or commons Growth in the right direction - attracting restaurants, services, arts, activities that preserve the Eagle feel Town feeling preserved/feature local artists, musicians Maintaining open space - foothills view form town free of homes Less cars, more public transportation Forward planning for transportation/roads; a well thought out downtown core More community "get together" events (like those at Rembrandts) on a continuous or regular basis Retain small town atmosphere, downtown/beautiful landscaping, open areas, art Keep city spending at same level and base remaining arts funding on private donations/support of arts groups More upper scale shopping, do something about rural areas - make them look more appealing Improved downtown, more business and industry for jobs More community events Public spaces (parks) integrated in development, shops and business development that doesn't look like strip malls Maintain small town feel, increase shopping amenities A thriving downtown where you could shop locally - more eateries Community art events for youth ages 13-18 Performing arts center No growth Slower growth Less "upper class" and more "middle class" Classes, outdoor painting, public art/murals Keep us small, stay out of my pocket Well managed growth, continue small town feeling Arts for children reasonably priced Slow growth Less congestion Maintain slow, controlled growth to keep quality of life and outdoor character We strongly support free concerts in summer/weekends Continued car in how our buildings look Very limited growth Limited growth Continued parks and building with character, no tall buildings, not to exceed heights of current buildings Continue on present path - pedestrian friendly Limited to maintain growth - well managed Less traffic Retain (S.T.A.) No tall buildings - nothing over 2-3 stories, continue strict covenants on buildings, signage, etc. Music events, support for EMS & EHS Keep our open spaces, better roads or altemate transportation options Slower traffic on Eagle Road Controlled growth - impact fees paid by BUILDERS! Pedestrian friendly downtown, parking garage Children's music academy, community band/chorus, recorded performances for those unable to attend/Senior Center Performing arts center Better traffic control, less property taxes Nice, attractive, destination type downtown area Interactive children's museum, equestrian park or children/adults More kids programs Cute stores lining Old State - good walking town Performing arts center Good planned development of infrastructure community Clean up comer of Eagle/State, improve downtown area hope that the beautiful, well-kept ambience of Eagle is maintained More open areas Low population density Patriotic themes Do not want to see more housing in the foothills The same feeling of a small town that it has now More green spaces preserved near the community's center To continue with the plans underway and move to come Controlled growth, maintain small town feel Better roads and less people Controlled (closely) growth Not so crowded A variety of art displays, concerts, performances throughout the year, also public art works Paved greenbelt - river beach, place to walk inside in winter Blue grass festival A nice and friendly community and a place for performing art New roads Much more controlled growth (few people) in the foothills; a downtown that's revitalized - mixed retail, office and residents (3 stories fine) Continued small town with culture for adults and children More recognition and promotion of local artists, open studio tours Keep business development with unique shops (not chain stores) and activities, limit traffic through downtown Slow, well-planned growth, mass transit to Boise Stop growth of condos, high rise building Less growth More walking/biking accessibility to downtown Eagle to enjoy arts/culture there No drugs in schools Eagle High is very bad Better publicity of community events - a weekly Eagle newspaper Pedestrian friendly walking that avoids the danger of crossing Eagle Road/State Street Keep it small and practical More children's programs that are inexpensive Not too large Very strict adherence to plans so we don't kill what we love with topsy turvy growth More retail stores, restaurants A pretty pedestrian bridge (or two) across Boise River Less commercial development, more environmental impact Stay on a high plain A community theater or performance space for cultural events Waterpark, movie theater, auditorium No crowding - space is very important Less growth and commercialism, preserving foothills for use - not building! Free outdoor concerts on the river at the park (Merrill Park) Keep it small Walking mall downtown with traffic diverted around Stay small Kids and art Highway improvements, move traffic around not through More concerts, bigger Saturday Market Less government restriction on property rights Moderate but continuous growth tempered with clean responsible and transparent govemment with an any towards responsible infrastructure development Controlled growth More bike paths, more family restaurants Intelligent, insightful allocation of vacant land Paved greenbelt Improved parks! Especially for skateboards Continue present course Keep the small town feel i More evening events in downtown core during summer 'Walkable" downtown core with shops, restaurants More downtown shops and residences, increase in art exhibits and theater Better managed and much slower growth than Mayor Bandy's record has demonstrated! Waling connections between downtown and shopping/eating places across bypass, parking downtown A community arts center - classes available in painting, drawing, pottery, texture arts, woodworking, murals, for adults/children Small upscale rural setting but more local shopping, eating establishments, etc. Community - sustaining retail and transit between subdivisions and Eagle city area Community activities Opportunity for citizen involvement, fostering sense of community More of the same plus an event center/ bigger place to have arts supported Continued development, keeping with the style of Eagle, more free children's programs More pedestrian friendly, replace building eyesores with height/limit structures Cleanliness/culture Controlled growth , art ed opportunities Less growth Traffic, transportation systems are 20 years behind the housing growth situation - stop building until roads catch up A more active downtown G4reater support to the small business art community 11.
