Nearly every time I go out with clients new to the area they ask me questions about local development, and shopping what stores we have, where and what is planned in the future. I am consistently asked “where is the Trader Joe’s?” and I have to break it to them, we do not have one.

Well this could all change, developers are looking to put one in on Chinden by the Foxtail Golf Course. They need help getting the site approved, there is a lot of opposition from the Foxtail Subdivision. So if you would like to see this go forward you can attend the Eagle City Council Meeting December 15th, if you can not make it to the meeting please send letters and/or emails to the addresses below. Here is your chance Trader Joe’s fans, to finally have a store here in the Boise area.
