Canyon County approves revised Star area of city impact boundary

Commissioners adopted a new boundary for the land outside Star's city limits where the city plans for future growth, after trimming a northern expansion to stay within two miles. The disputed overlap with Nampa was left outside both cities' boundaries; the board acted Nov. 19.

This filing changes the city's rules rather than a specific site, so there's nothing to map.
