NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BOISE CITY, IDAHO:
Section 1. That the land use zoning classification of the following described lands within the city of Boise City, Idaho, as set forth in Exhibits A (Legal Description) and B (Map) are amended and reclassified from R-2 (Residential: Compact) to MX-1 (Mixed-Use: Neighborhood), pursuant to the procedures and requirements of Idaho Code Title 67, Chapter 65 and Boise City Code Title 11, Chapter 5, and the Boise City Comprehensive Plan, as a result of changed circumstances and to promote the public health, safety, and welfare.
Section 2. Pursuant to Idaho Code § 67-6535, the Boise City Council hereby adopts the following Reasoned Statement:
Reasoned Statement
The proposed rezone from R-2 to MX-1 is consistent with the approval criteria of Boise City Code (BCC) Section 11-05-05-4.I (Zoning Map Amendment). The subject property is designated as "Compact", within which the MX-1 zone is allowed. The proposal is compatible with the adjacent single-family residential, and provides the ability for a mix of housing and neighborhood-scale commercial uses within the Boise city limits, reducing vehicle miles traveled as supported by the comprehensive plan (Policy CC1.1). The subject property is located with access off an established street grid and adjacent to a station area as identified in the State Street Corridor Transportation Oriented Development (TOD) Plan, where increased density is supported. The subject property is also located in an activity center and urban renewal district, where redevelopment with a mix of uses is anticipated. As proposed, the rezone would provide the opportunity for an additional mix of housing in close proximity to alternative transportation options, which would develop with pedestrian-oriented streetscapes, as encouraged by Blueprint Boise Principles GDP N.3 and GDP N.5. The proposed rezone aligns with action items within the 30th Street Master Plan, by providing increased opportunities for housing alongside other community assets, in a scale appropriate with the surrounding neighborhood.
Section 3. The zoning maps of the city of Boise City, Idaho, are hereby changed, altered, and amended to include and insert the real property described in Exhibits A and B hereof in the land use classification therein described.
Section 4. That this Ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its passage, approval, and publication.
ADOPTED by the Council of Boise City, Idaho, on July 14, 2026.
APPROVED by the Mayor of the Boise City, Idaho, on July 14, 2026.
