Tips and Information about Controlling Rodents

Green Guard Pest Control, a local pest control company, wrote a free guide for Treasure Valley homes and neighborhood groups. It covers the signs to look for, the cheap steps that work better when a block does them together, and how to report sightings on the state’s rat map. The facts link to the City of Boise, Idaho Health and Welfare and University of Idaho Extension.

The Sandbar Bridge – Neighborhood Meeting – May 28 at 6PM-7PM

On May 28 at 6PM-7PM there will be an Open House at The Riverside Hotel in the Garnet Room, just off the main lobby, to hear about a proposed project. It’s a pedestrian bridge across the Boise River approximately 800 feet downstream from W Main Street; it will be known as The Sandbar Bridge.

For more information, see www.cityofboise.org/planningprocess and the documents are under this project number PLN26-00446. 

Results from the Annual General Meeting Held May 19

About 10 people come to the meeting including three board members. We didn’t have a quorum to open the meeting, so we weren’t able to complete any association business including taking minutes, conducting elections, and adopting the latest bylaws. Official boards members are Justin, Brian, and Tasmyn.

To remedy this situation and be in compliance with our bylaws, the board will meet again in June, appoint two interested neighbors to the board, and then we will be able to proceed with board business.

If you were unable to attend the May 19 meeting and you’re interested in serving on the board, send an email to the board@westendboise.org.
