About this application
The applicant wants to rezone about 44 acres at 2017 W Victory Road from open lands to multi-family residential and build a planned community of 892 homes. The mix would be 616 apartments in three buildings of 3 to 5 stories, 142 townhomes and 134 single-family homes, with some small commercial space. The request also includes a height exception for architectural features on an apartment building and a subdivision into 157 buildable lots.
*** APPEAL REC"D 12-15-2022 *** The project site currently consists of vacant land on approximately 44 acres. Vista Point will include 800 rental residential units, ranging from studio to 4-bedrooms, with a mix of single-family detached, townhome-style attached, and podium apartments. The building arrangement and site design create an attractive, urban-feeling landscape. Internal driveways and bicycle and pedestrian pathways provide connectivity and integration to surrounding properties. The proposed multi-family use is consistent with Blueprint Boise, compatible with surrounding uses, and adequately served by existing utilities and City services. Vista Point provides needed and walkable housing near the Vista Avenue transit corridor and convenient access to nearby commercial areas and Interstate 84. The project blends with the surrounding single-family neighborhoods by providing lower height and lower density housing along the east, adjacent to existing single family residential, and transitioning to taller and denser apartment buildings to the west, adjacent to vacant land designated as Mixed Use on the City’s Future Land Use Map. See attached narrative for more information.
