Residents in the area have raised concerns about the limited road access, as well as the development's impact on the area's open spaces.

The fire marshal came out in opposition to the project, stating that having only one access road for emergency vehicles goes against the city’s fire code.

In addition to denying the permit, Planning and Zoning is also recommending the Boise City Council deny the proposal.
