The Cliffs' Blog

I’m happy to report Ada County has accepted our application for the preliminary plat for Phase 1 of The Cliffs, for about 350 home sites on 192 acres. For a site plan showing the expected layout of lots, click here.

We’ve received scores of emails from people requesting to reserve a lot at The Cliffs. Indeed, if everyone who showed interest actually purchased, we’d be well on our way to selling out the first phase! However, we cannot take any money or other information to reserve lots until the final plats have been recorded, which should happen early next year. Also, we currently anticipate most, if not all, lots will be sold through our builder team (which has yet to be determined), not to specific individuals.

There is, however, an important way you can help ensure there will be a lot for you at The Cliffs.

As with any project of this size, there is opposition to The Cliffs - the core of which is composed of a small group of residents who already live on or near the plateau. Unfortunately, they have resorted to using misinformation to advance their campaign in order to keep others out. Ada County officials need to hear from people like you who, like the opposition, want make the plateau their home.

On Thursday, July 20, at 6 p.m., our preliminary plat application and the overall conceptual plan for The Cliffs will come before the Ada County Planning and Zoning Commission at the Ada County Courthouse, 200 Front St. in Boise. Your testimony at this hearing would be invaluable.

Or, if you are unable to attend this meeting, you can send a letter to the Ada County Planning and Zoning Commission care of Gerry Armstrong, Ada County Development Services, 200 Front St., Boise, ID 83702. If you like, you may email your comments to mpecchenino@adaweb.net. You may review our Web site for ideas on things to put in your letter or testimony.

Thanks for your support and please contact us if we can help in any way.
