Item 11. Public Hearing: PFP 04-005 Request for Preliminary Final Plat
approval for the re-subdivision of Lot 10 and portions of Lots 9 and 11,
Block 11 into 3 building lots on 3.46 acres in a C-G zone for Copperpoint
Subdivision by Larson Architects -east of South Eagle Road on the
south side of East Copperpoint Drive:
Borup: Thank you. The next item is Public Hearing PFP 04-005, request for
preliminary/final plat approval for a resubdivision of Lot 10 and a portion of Lots 9 and
11, Block 11, into three building lots on 3.46 acres, C-G zone, for Copperpoint
Subdivision. We'd like to open this hearing and start with the staff report.
Hood: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. Like Brad, I, too, am pitch hitting
for Steve tonight. I just read the staff report for the first time about an hour ago, so bear
with me, but I will try to highlight some things in the staff report, just for the general
public. This is a preliminary/final plat for athree-lot subdivision on 3.46 acres located in
Silverstone on the south side of East Copperpoint Drive. This is just north of the
application -three applications ago on the agenda tonight that Mr. Larsen referred to.
This property was originally platted as part of the Silverstone Phase Two. It was
recorded in October of 2002. There was a record of survey done on this property in
2003 and moved some of those lot lines around from the original lots in Silverstone
Phase Two were approximate size and the lot hasn't changed that much, but the legal
description now is a portion of three different lots. There is a CZC that's been issued on
this site. The applicant -- this subject application is to provide two. mirror lots within the
developable area here. That CZC was issued on Lot 3 of the proposed subdivision. I
don't know if your eyes are very good, but I can't see which one is Lot 3 and I don't
know what the CZC was, but -the southeast corner Brad says.

Borup: Yeah. It looks like this is Lot 3. The big one.
Hood: So, the Northwest are the new lots are buildable lots in this subdivision. I do not
see a letter from the applicant in the file. I did read through the staff -the conditions
that staff has put on this application. I do not believe there should probably be any
problems with it, but I will let them speak for themselves and stand for any questions
you may have.
Borup: Questions from any of the Commissioners? Would the applicant like to add
anything?
Larsen: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, my name is Cornell Larsen,
address 210 Murray in Garden City. We are in agreement with the staff report and the
conditions in the staff report. So, there is not too much to talk about. The CZC was
filed on this lot and I do have -- I had a stack of color renderings on my desk, but I only
remembered to bring one, so I can pass that around that shows the project. The first
building would be in this location here, then, there would be an attachment to it for a
second phase and there would be a single story there and a single story there. This
building is a two story as it's currently proposed. This is the canal setback we talked
about in the previous easement. We do own to the centerline of the canal. That's pretty
much all I had. I can certainly give you this if you'd like to look at it or pass it around,
but on this rendering this building right there is the first building. I'd be happy to answer
any questions if you have them.
Borup: Questions for Mr. Larsen? Okay. I think we are -- it looks like we are feeling
okay about this.
Larsen: Okay. Thank you.
Borup: Do we have anyone else to testify on this application? Seeing none -
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move the Public Hearing on Item 11 be closed.
Moe: Second.
Borup: Motion and second to close the hearing. All in favor? Any opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Borup: Do you have a mption, Mr. Moe?
Moe: Yes. I'll fake over fpr you there. Mr. Chairman, I move to recommend to City
Council of file number PFP 04-005, request for apreliminary/final plat approval for the
resubdivision of Lot 10 and portions of Lots 9 and 11, Block 11, into three building lots

Item 12. Pu61ic Hearing: MI 04-002 Request for removal from the City of
Meridian's area of impact for Fred Schuerman by Fred Schuerman -
west of North Cloverdale Road and north of East Fairview Avenue:
Borup: Thank you. Next item is Public Hearing MI 04-002, request for removal from
City of Meridian's area of impact for Fred Schuerman by Fred Schuerman. I don't know
if I pronounced that right. West of Cloverdale Road and north of East Fairview Avenue.
I'd like to open this hearing and start with the staff report.
Hood: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. This is my application,
so I'm somewhat familiar with it, but the applicant has submitted a request, a
miscellaneous application to remove this property ftom the City of Meridian's area of
impact and will subsequently ask to be annexed into Boise city's area of impact and,
then, into the city limits. The property is located on the north side of Fairview Avenue,
approximately a half mile east of Eagle Road and about the same distance west of
Cloverdale Road. To the south is Terrace Lawns Memorial Gardens. To the north is a
residential sub, Venture Subdivision. Both of those properties are zoned RUT. To the
west of the site is also RUT zoned property and this was before this board in 2002, I
believe it was -- yeah, November of 2002, the site directly to the west of this site was
denied annexation by the City Council due to traffic reasons and some other concerns
that neighbors in the area had with annexing the property, as well as there was some
questions about serviceability with sewer, and so that kind of puts this property in a little
bit of a bind. Their path to annexation has been taken away from them, basically.
There are other possibilities for annexation. Terrace Lawns I do not believe that they
will annex anytime soon. They will be little benefit. Same with the residential
subdivision to the north. Those are approximately one-acre lots and annexation for
those lots I don't see in the foreseeable future anyways. Further, some background
information. The applicant owns approximately 16 acres, which is in Boise city,
currently annexed into the city of Boise directly east and does have a development plan
for that site, as you can see here. So, the 1.6 acres is off to the left there, kind of the L -
-thank you -- portion of the site plan in front you, with the remainder portion being in
Boise city. This application -- I guess Idaho Code requires that the Planning and Zoning
Commission hear changes to area of impact and make recommendations to City
Council, much like development applications, and that's what we are going through
here. Currently, there is not a mechanism or we don't have an area of impact
application, that's why you're seeing a miscellaneous application. Included in the staff
report is -- I was hoping to get some discussion from the board and eventually City
Council on amending our fee schedule to set up strict guidelines for area of impact,
adjustments, so I don't know what thoughts the Commissioners may have on that. Just
