PROJECT ENGINEER/PLANNER", Aspen Grove Development, LLC, Developer, submitted
for preliminary plat approval and which preliminary plat for approval application is herein
received and adjudged by the City Council pursuant to Meridian City Code § 12-3-3. Therefore
the City Council makes the following findings:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1.
That the proposed development is in conformance with the Amended
Comprehensive Plan by reason ofthe fact that it lies within the existing Urban Area as
defined in the Meridian Comprehensive Plan Generalized Land Use Map, Intrastructure
Planning Analysis Amended Comprehensive Plan Map, adopted August 6, 2002,
Resolution No. 02-382, and the property is presently zoned L-O, and requires connection
to the Municipal Water and Sewer System. [Meridian City Code § 11-7-2 G]
2.
The preliminary plat is in conformance with the Amended
Comprehensive Plan City of Meridian adopted August 6, 2002, Resolution No. 02-382.
This site is currently designated as "Commercial" on the Comprehensive Plan Future
Land Use Map and is zoned 1-0. In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan,
"Commercial" areas are anticipated to provide a full range of commercial and retail to

Page 2 ofl7
serve area residents and visitors. Uses may include, retail, wholesale, service and office
uses, multi-family residential, as well as appropriate public uses such as government
offices.
The following are Goals, Objectives, and Action items contained in the 2002
Comprehensive Plan to be applicable to this application:
Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action item 12
Chapter V, Goal III, Objective D, Action item 5
Chapter IV, Goal I, Objective A, Action item 6
Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action item 3
3.
The developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, utilities
and irrigation services needed to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the
future residents will be fire and police services. The site is currently serviced by city
water and sewer.
On April 9, 2004, a joint agencyldepartment comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. The Meridian Fire Department
has concerns with serviceability of this site, as it is currently outside oftheir five-minute
response zone. The Fire Department does not know when a new station will be
constructed in this area, south of the treeway. The conditions and requirements trom the
entities are listed in paragraph number 2 of the Order herein below.
4.
The developer is installing sewer, water, and utilities for the development
at their cost, and it is found that the subdivision will not conflict with the capital
improvement program.
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND ORDER
OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF PRELIM:INARY PLAT
VALENCIA PLAZA SUBDIVISION 1 (pP-O4-010)
Page 3 of 17
5.
The project lies outside the five-minute response zone goal of the
Meridian fire Department. Achievement of this goal is subject to budgetary constraints
and is intended to enhance the probability of a favorable outcome on a request for Basic
Life Support. The budget constraints are typically defined as capital outlay for facilities
that are located within 1.5 miles trom a given location and sufficient operational funds to
staff the facilities. It is found that the development itself will not require major
expenditures for providing supporting services. However, compounded with the other
projects on the south side of the treeway that have recently been approved by the City,
basic life support service in this area is not optimal at this time.
6.
Other than the Fire Department's concerns with serviceability, staff is not
aware of any health, safety or environmental problems associated with this subdivision.
There have not been identified any environmental problems that may be associated with
the development of this site. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis;
ACHD staff has approved this subdivision, with conditions.
7.
It is found that the Recommendation To City Council of the Planning and
Zoning Commission is reasonable and appropriate for the conditions of approval of the
preliminary plat as hereinafter set forth.
8.
The applicant has submitted for consideration of this approval drawing of
the preliminary plat herein designated as "VALENCIA PLAZA SUBDIVISION, A
