1 Today Land & People Employment Major employers include Saint Alphonsus, the College of Western Idaho, the Auto Mall, Sorrento Lactalis and Walmart. 3,004 jobs in 2010 (COMPASS-CIM 2040 TAZ data) 4,345 jobs in 2015 (COMPASS-CIM 2040 TAZ data) 9.8% of jobs in Nampa s Area of Impact are located in the 12,460 (18.5%) jobs in Nampa s Area of Impact are estimated to be located in the by the year 2040 (COMPASS-CIM 2040 TAZ data) Land Use Characteristics Agricultural=628 acres Commercial=207 acres Industrial=144 acres Public/quasi public=281 acres Office=14 acres Vacant land=159 acres Residential=84 acres Current Demographics Gateway Business (GB) 616* people estimated to live zoning is mixed use in the district zoning with design Median age is 27** standards. GB1 is Median Household primarily commercial Income=$57,736** and GB2 allows for *2010 Census block data combined with apartment medium to high density growth and avg. household size. **Not collected for the exact boundary, includes residential with some of the surrounding area. compatible commercial, office and service uses.

2 In the Future Vision An attractive, well planned and unique area of Nampa that draws people throughout the valley for entertainment, education, shopping and employment opportunities. Key Issues Compatible Land Use Housing and residential land use is not compatible with existing industrial land use Housing, particularly dense housing is necessary to support active mixed use development. There is a need for well thought-out transitions from Industrial on the eastern edge of the planning area to mixed use with some residential on the northwest and southwest boundary. Prioritize land uses that support existing anchors institutions and utilize Canyon County s competitive advantage of above average county wage tax incentives Traffic/ Transportation Signal timing improvements Congestion is getting worse and will not improve as the area develops Need for increased access/ connectivity throughout the district Sidewalks and bike facilities should connect district amenities Public transportation improvements with greater frequency would help to ease congestion District Identity/ Amenities Need to create a sense of place with a unique identity The district should attract visitors and serve Nampa residents The district should be an attractive gateway to the city with special concern for landscaping A district theme could encourage public art Need for more sit-down restaurants, upscale bars and venues for district workers, Idaho Center patrons and area residents to meet socially

3 Future Land Use The Community Mixed Use designation is more appropriate than highway commercial for the existing church and likely development in this area. Existing Future Land Use Map Changes to Employment Center and Business Park are meant to take advantage of tax reimbursement incentives for companies that bring jobs above average county wage. Saint Alphonsus has plans to expand its Medical Center, the Public designation matches proposed zoning changes Community Mixed use is meant to provide a desirable transition from commercial land use along Garrity Blvd. to residential land use to the east. Current and planned uses of the Gateway Center are all possible with the Community Mixed Use Designation. Future Land Use Changes by Acres Future land Use 2035 Comprehensive Plan Business Park Acres Acres Public Acres Acres Community Mixed Use 85.1 Acres Acres Heavy Industrial Acres Acres Light Industrial Acres 169,7 Acres Highway Commercial Acres Acres General Commercial 80.3 Acres 54.4 Acres Employment Center Acres Medium Density Residential 30.6 Acres 30.6 Acres High Density Residential 38.9 Acres 11.2 Acres 5 The proposed Business Park designation matches the current approved Gateway Business GB1 zoning for this property. While the plan decreases industrial acreage overall, a small piece of additional Light Industrial land would help to provide a buffer from heavy industrial use to the east while matching current zoning and land use for the site.
