West Bench Neighborhood Association Welcome to the Boise West Bench Neighborhood Association's official page! WBNA meets every other month at the Library! at Cole and Ustick.

The West Bench Neighborhood Association (WBNA) is a registered neighborhood association within the city limits of Boise, Idaho. The association represents residents living on the bench in an area bound by Fairview Avenue to the south, Maple Grove Road to the west, Settlers Canal to the north, and Cole Road/Ustick Road to the east. The area is mostly residential but also home to a number of local businesses, three city parks, a post office, and a public library. Six primary schools are located here as well as the only historic district on the bench, The Spaulding Ranch. WBNA residents enjoy a quiet suburban life with convenient access to all the amenities Boise City has to offer. Watch this FB page for meeting details.

Three SWACA board members, Marisa Keith, Dave Palumbo and Cynthia Rasavage, attended the recent Rat Town Hall put on by Boise City Council members. There will be another put on by the county on Sept 2nd. Rats have been reported as far south as Columbia Road in SWACA and even some reports in Kuna. One homeowner who lives behind the HP campus has caught 80 in one year. Below is some information we gathered from the town hall. This is a community wide problem and if we want Ada County to be able to address it effectively through pest control it will require the legislature to pass a bill. A rat bill failed in the last session. You can track the rats and add your own sightings here https://tvpiedpiper.com/
The Ada County Rat Town Hall is Sept 2nd at 6 pm: https://www.youtube.com//featured

New accessible pathways now span the unique, 20-acre urban agriculture park site at Spaulding Ranch. They connect the West Bench property to N. Cole Road and soon, construction will begin on the Tuttle-Spaulding Pathway, providing a safe route to travel all the way to N. Milwaukee Street. The project, which is funded by the Open Space and Clean Water Levy, builds on the city's Pathways Program vision.

Join City of Boise leaders at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 27 as we dedicate these new connections along with the state-of-the-art produce wash station facility that's complete just in time for harvest season! We'll also share the vision for this incredible community gathering space.
