A developer proposes rezoning a 6.36-acre property at 1426 Chicago Street in Nampa from suburban residential (RA) to single-family residential (RS4) and subdividing it into 28 single-family lots.

Concurrently, we request approval for a preliminary plat that includes a gross density of 4.4 units/acre with an average residential lot size of 5,344 SF and a minimum residential lot size of 3,952 SF, allowing for .98 acres of common area/open space. This development includes 26 Single-Family homes south of the Elijah Drain and 2 Single-Family Residential lots North of the Elijah Drain.
