The proposed streets will meet the improvement standards set forth in the Meridian Zoning Ordinance. 2. The proposed residential development is in compliance with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. The plan designates the property as single family residential development. The development is subject to the dimensional standards of the R-4 zone. All proposed residential lots meet or exceed the 8,000 square foot minimum lot size. All lot frontages meet the 80 foot requirement with exception of the cul-de-sac lots and lots on a 90 degree bend in a street. These lots fall within the 40 foot frontage requirement. The development complies with the provisions of the Meridian Zoning Ordinance with the exception of Section 9-605(E) Blocks. A variance on block length has been submitted for review by the Meridian City Council. 4. The preliminary plat reflects existing easements associated with the Ridenbaugh Canal. 5. The street names on the preliminary plat were submitted to the Ada County Street Name Committee for their review. 6. Dedications to the Public: The development provides a portion of a school/park site (3.85 acres), a fire station lot (1.41 acres) and a city well lot (.32 acres). 7. Statement of Development Features: The proposed development consists of (330) single family residential lots, (24) common lots, (1) school/park lot, (1) fire station lot and (1) well lot on 121.227 acres. The subject properly adjoins Los Alamitos Subdivision and the proposed Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision. The proposed density of 2.72 dwellings per acre is consistent with other approved developments in the area. Three stub streets have been provided for future connection to adjoining properties. S. Molly's Way along the south boundary of northeast section of the property and E. Sheep Creek Street adjacent to the east boundary within the southern portion of the parcel. A vehicular bridge is proposed over the Ridenbaugh Canal to make a connection to Los Alamitos Subdivision. The bridge location creates a connection within the interior of Section 20, which would promote access to the future Meridian School District High School site and the future park/elementary school site. 9 80204\statem ent-com A micro -path connection has been provided along the west boundary to connect to the proposed pedestrian bridge over the Ridenbaugh Canal, which connects to the proposed Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision. Two collector streets have been provided within the project, which feed traffic to Victory Road and Eagle Road. Common lots have been located within the project to facilitate storm drainage retention. The development provides for a future fire station by allocating a 1.41 acre lot adjoining Eagle Road. A city well lot has been provided based on information from City staff that a site is preferred along the Eagle Road corridor. A 3.85 acre school/park lot has been provided as a portion of a future City park or elementary school site. The lot matches the 2.4 acres set aside in Los Alamitos and the 4.0 acres in the G. L. Voigt parcel. A neighborhood meeting was held on the development plan on March 9, 1998. All property owners within 300 feet of the subject property were invited to attend. Six residents were in attendance and I received a couple of phone calls and two letters with comments. The concerns and comments by the neighbors have been taken into consideration. 1. The Eagle Road entrance has been aligned with the existing Girdner Lane as recommended by the owner of Sutherland Farm. 2. The future fire station lot was relocated from the southeast corner of the parcel to the northeast corner as requested by Gordon Harris. 3. The developer agrees to include the Right To Farm Statute on the final plat to protect existing agricultural uses in the area as requested by the trustee of the Morganeer Family Trust. 4. A landscape buffer along the east -side of the parcel near Victory Road has been provided. The developer agrees to construct a berm, landscaping, and a fence (not dog-eared) adjacent to the Glick property as requested by Mrs. Glick. 5. The developer intends to duplicate the 5' wrought iron fencing along the Ridenbaugh Canal. The developer will install trees along the west boundary adjacent to the Fritts property as a privacy buffer, which was requested by Mr. and Mrs. Fritts. The developer intends to extend sewer from Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision or Los Alamitos Subdivision to service the subject property. Preliminary sewer analysis confirms that either trunk line can provide adequate depth to service the development. Water will be extended from Los Alamitos into the subject property. A traffic study was submitted to ACHD with the Highlands Ranch project. ACHD reviewed Thousand Springs Subdivision in draft form as a pre -application review. ACHD indicated an 980204\statement-co m addendum to the original traffic study should be submitted. Pat Dobie has prepared the addendum and will submit to ACHD on April 20, 1998. Preliminary phase lines have been delineated, however phases may change. 9 80204\statement-com ,G,r 8 r I Iq I �� 1 �` 4 2 i �.r `- tij'" T7• /,?� \ �M$d; j ; °times \\ ���� 1 A., L--- / ~ tic s����__ �� 4 � J 4 � • r � + \�' /' �c " / ��� " \ • t v�g�R i i ��r�/'//�,,��i / _�� : t 4 ap x 'a' � a E�. `�� p y � / ��P `� — � Y� 1 IT u 4 � Y / 8 vb � b. 8 a _ _ ♦ ♦ � 8 3 or,Ysl• c ena•> E i a �K ' nl � 2 b a s" \, i s° b � a. • t'y �s� i -� - �a � Y « �.� b `,AI$ E9 a �Y � : I No e o °y p �,�� q 'y Y `$ tl a 9` ^ ` a ` e t. a u'� a >a a , q, • Y a • '�. s ' '� M I ° Pl /i' ' f gid+. r"S � �• _ �q �" "' jYd ' t q'� z �>�e � �° .1LC9t. ! j4�, a 3 a g Y a g '\ a " \ ` �_ > a = ¢ Y / S d .a\ \\`� •7 i 5 9 /i ; y >P FR s0. egta ttl Y \ sY b.iy is �t �Y'o �. `,8 v \ .\�= M• f \ `\\ i i i ��� � � � 0.

Mr. Gary Smith, P. E. City of Meridian 33 E. Idaho Avenue Meridian, Idaho 83642 Re: Thousand Springs — Sewer Dear Gary; Primary sewer access is taken through Los Alamitos Subdivision 43. The main sewer line crosses under the Ridenbaugh Canal and is deep enough to serve all of the Thousand Springs property. However, we show another sewer connection to Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision. This sewer line will also extend under the Ridenbaugh Canal and it too can sewer all of the Thousand Springs property. The Sherbrooke sewer line is more than 5' deeper than the Los Alamitos sewer line. The sewer lines shown on the preliminary plans are only one concept of many possibilities. The final sewer system layout will depend on many items including the following: 1. Capacity of existing 8" line in Los Alamitos No. 3. 2. Construction schedule for 10" sewer line in Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision. 3. Phasing boundaries for Thousand Springs Subdivision. 4. Extent of sewer service area up stream of Thousand Springs.

State St. Boise, ID 83703 Dear Marty: An investigation of soil physical characteristics and internal soil drainage on the 116.5 acres located In the SE of section 20, 73N, RIE, BM, Ada County, was completed on March 5, 1998. Monitoring wells were installed in the eleven representative test holes for reading water table levels, if any occur. These welts have been monitored three times since March 5, 1998 (March 16, March 26, and April 6). Mc1st of the test holes were placed on proposed lots fairly close to the Ridenbaugh Canal that borders about three. -fourths of the 116.5 acres. It is assumed that if a seasonal high water table occurs on this property it would be ager water has been turned in to the Ridenbaugh Lanai and Possibly after the irrigation season is well under way. No water table was found at the time of the iliitial investigation and the monitoring wells have remained dry dmough April 6. Water was turned into the Ridenbaugh Canal on March 30, 1998 and the last monitoring was one week later (April 6) and there was no water table appearing in any of the test holes at that time, Extrmnely gravelly and cobbly loamy Coarse sand textures underlay ten of the eleven test holes. Test hole TH25 did not have gravelly sands underlying it to a depth of 132", but it appeared to be well drained. Test holes TH23, TH26, TH27 and TH32 may have a slight draivage problem, but I believe It is due to waste water pounding of agricultural irrigation water (tower end of field), rather than, from fluctuating seasonal groundwater. All of the other test holes appear well drained, It is my opinion that seasonal high groundwater is not a problem for storm drainage facilities, footing placement, nor crawl spaces on the I16,5 acre property. Monitoring will continue for a long enough period to confirm this opinion. Soil test hole descriptions and a test h.010 location map are attached.

State st. Boise, ID 83703 - p.'&M Po► 'VP r'V►A eh tS T �rrl Dear Marty: (f An investigation of soil physical characteristics and internal soil drainage on the 116.5 acres located in the SE of Section 20, 73N, RIE, 13M, was completed on March 5, 1998. Eleven representative test holes were examined and logged on the property. Field notes and a test hole location >naap are attached. Monitoring wells (PVC pipes) were instatled in each of the eleven pits and will be monitored every ten days starting March 16, 1998. Also, as Kim requested, 1 will continue monitoring TH21 test hole in the SW corner of Salmon Rapids Subdivision, As you will note on the test hole location map, I placed most of the pits on proposed tots fairly close to the Ridebaugh Canal that borders about three-fourths of the 116.5 acres, ff there is a seasonal high water table that occurs on the property, it will most likely rise after water is turned into the Ridebaugh Canal next .month. Extremely gravelly and cobbly loamy medium or coarse sand textures, were found underlying � ten of the eleven test holes. Test hale TH25 did not have gravelty sands to a de d, of 13 `. Test holes TH28 and TH29 appear to have poor internal drainage, Test, holes 1 .266, T#i27 an4-T- 32 may have some drainage problem, but not as severe as TH28 and T1i2 Ali a�kher test holes appear to be well drained. Xonitoring over the next two or three months llL rr confirm the drainage problems, if any. At this time, prior to monitoring, I would anticipate there are areas on d}e 116.5 acres whero storm drain facilities could be satisfactorily placed. Also, it looks possible that some parts of the property could accommodate basement homes without a problem, but there are some areas where basement houses do not appear to be feasible and some e>agineering may be required for storm drain facilities, �,uC6ar�?

Sincerely, 934ab/".W March 23, 1998 2825 South Eagle Road Meridian, Idaho 83642 (.208) 888-2472 To whom it may concern; The following is an attempt to influence the proposed location of a Eire Station and City Well by the City of Meridian and the developers of Thousand Springs Subdivision. I attended a meeting, held Monday, March 9, 79ga at the Sandman Motel, 1575 S. Meridian Road•at 6;30 p.m. Shown on the preliminary plat request was a site for a Fire Station and City Well to be located on the southeast corner of the proposed project, which is immediately adjoining our driveway to Eagle Road. It is with due respect to thn planners, that we are protesting the location for the following reasons: First and f¢.eemost would be the location of a blinking yellow warning light, which never sbvts off. Our home (which we built ourselves in 1963) is Situated in such a manner as to maximize our view of the Boise Front, both in our Jiving xoomand master bedroom windows. The location of this station at this site, would have a major negative impact on thew value of our property. In our opinion the best location for the Fire Station would be located immediately south of the bridge over the: Ridetaugh Canal on the West side of ]eagle Road. There are no homes across the road from this site, aND planners can screen and place new homes so as to minimize the impact the station would have. Also buyers would have a choice in whether to buy. Since this Flan is in the preliminary stages we feel that +` by voicing our opinion now, can save planners valuable time in reviewing changes in the future. We sincerely ask your immediate attention to the above concerns and recommendation. WeAre aware that some of the parties that we are sending this letter to will not have access to the informahion on the preliminary plot for some time yet, but it is important to us and we wish our concerns be known and addressed in a timely manner. sincerely, Gordon M.

The plans indicate that there is a proposed pedestrian bridge over the Ridenbaugh Canal to the Sherbrook Subdivision, also a new road bridge is shown crossing the Ridenbaugh Canal. The District would prefer that these be combined into one as pedestrian walkways do not work well by themselves and since there is a road crossing anyway, our preference would be that you place the bridge down there and have the Ada County Highway District, if its separate, indemnify the District for such a walkway or just have the children cross on a sidewalk as they do at any other street. The land use change application states that the drainage will go into the Ninemile Drain, but the plans do not indicate this. A pipe will have to be used to run under the Ridenbaugh Canal as well as a sewer pipe which is shown to go under the Ridenbaugh Canal to Sherbrook Subdivision. We will need to see more detail and a license agreement will need to be in place for any crossing. The area in which this crossing will take place will need to have concrete lining as most of the bank in this area is high fill and made up of mainly sand and gravel. The plans indicate that there will a pressure irrigation system, but no pump location is shown nor any final plans available. You have shown the McDonald Lateral coursing through this area, this is not a Nampa & Meridian irrigation District facility. Please contact Mr. Troy Upshaw at the Boise Project Board of Control at 344-1141 and pass this information on to him.

(listed on page 22, No. 14). We believe this is in keeping with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan which promotes a buffer to interface between urban level densities and rural residential densities (page 30, 6.8U of the comprehensive plan). However, we would like the Council to notice the attached maps and then make a slight change. According to the map, it appears that lots 22 and 23 will be directly behind our backyard. Therefore, we would like to change the restriction from lots 14-21 to lots 17-24. In other words, lots 14, 15 and 16 would not be restricted; lots 17 through 24 would be restricted to single level dwellings. This change would keep the buffer in the area that would benefit us the most. It would also improve the buffer for our neighbors, Bob and Ruth Fritts. It would be the same number of lots originally restricted so should be acceptable by the developer. And, we believe it is in keeping with the spirit of the original conclusion. Thank you very much for your consideration and patience with this matter. As you know, it is extremely important to us as we will live with (and look at) your decision for a very long time. We will be in the audience for your meeting September 1, 1998. We know it is not a public meeting, but we will be there in case you have any questions. Sincerely, Marvin R Hansen Nancyjl.

Rountree: As it relates to property pins and property location, with respect to the two foot overlap on the sidewalks. Having the property lines buried by the sidewalks. . Bowcutt: Oh, not to have the property pin buried by the sidewalk. So we could do some type of an offset? Rountree: I would suggest that you work that out with the city engineer because we have problems with that and we need a solution. Bowcutt: Okay. Prior: Before the findings are done please, soon. Bowcutt: Okay, we can get with Gary, get with Gary. MERIDIAN CITY COUNL JULY 21, 1998 PAGE 72 Corrie: Anyone else from the public like to enter testimony on the preliminary plat? NANCY HANSEN, 2460 E VICTORY ROAD, MERIDIAN, ID. WAS SWORN IN BY THE ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY. Hansen: Can I clarify which lots are 14-21? Rountree: There essentially—it starts two lots north of Victory and goes to Sherbrooke subdivision. Hansen: Oh, it's to the Sherbrooke. Anderson: I think the ones along the tagish (sic) way. Hansen: I think that's what you intended but I'm not sure that that is really what they are. Can we look at the... (Inaudible) Rountree: It stands as it stands. Bird: As it stands. Hansen: I had one other question from the—from Ms. Bowcutt, when she talked about the larger lots. I'm not sure if I can—in this section, ask about that. Where she said the larger lots border the canal, all of those are larger lots. I wondered if that was including that the center line of the canal is where the border of the property is, so it makes those lots look bigger. Bowcutt: No. Hansen: I just wanted to make sure that that was not the case. I would still request that those be R-2 zoning, so that there were fewer houses, single story, thank you. (Inaudible) Corrie: Anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony. BOB FRITTS WAS SWORN BY THE ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY. Fritts: This is the map that shows our property. The other map didn't show where our property is. Our house is right there, so when you go to 21, our pasture is out here, the shop is here and the house is right there. So our view is this way. Going from 14 to 21 just cuts across, you know, we're looking at the MERIDIAN CITY COON, JULY 21, 1998 PAGE 73 Hanson's house. Our view is this way. (Inaudible) Is 24 and 22 about the same to you? (Inaudible) Fritts: Okay, then I'll propose that we go to lot 23. That's exactly where would be perfect for us for privacy and for our view. Bowcutt: I'd just like to state that we're in opposition of going any more single story lots. I mean he thinks that those homes are going to be back on that rim. You need to understand those lots are a 131 feet deep, so they are going to set up toward the roadway. It's not like the homes are going to be right back at the canal. If you understand what I'm saying. There's 100 foot easement. And then you've got the lots going 130 beyond that. You've got a 20 foot setback. Most of the homes are set back from the street. In those pictures that I showed you, all you could see was the trees and then that rim. If you look forward, you can't see further beyond there. We are not creating a walled in affect. These people are lower than us but I don't think that the visual effect is going to be what they think, and when you look at the aerials, you can see the Hanson's house is 200 feet from the east side of the canal, and the Fritts' is 380 feet. This is one inch equals 200 feet. This is the Hanson's house. Their garage is behind their house. So if you're here, what do you see? You see the garage. The homes are not going to be back here, but they are going to be measured from the edge of the canal. There's 100 feet. So the home is going to set up in this area right in here. That's 100 feet, not back here, and all you can see from here is this area here. There's those trees and you can see those pictures that I submitted that Will has. Mr. Fritts' house is over here. He's got shops and all this behind him. This is his house. It's the brown one on the picture. This is what he sees. When you come in through here, what you're doing is you're taking this area. about through this area right in here and you're making those single story. Approximately through that area here. I'd just like to go on the record that I think that's inappropriate. If we start doing that, then anytime we build next to anyone's house, it will be a story. What next? Then they started limiting us that a single story can't be over 15 feet tall? We can't have a 6 12 pitch on a roof or something. I mean it will go completely out of control, and I just think that's not the way the ordinances, the codes, the constitution of this country's written. I just think it's inappropriate. Thank you. Sorry I'm just getting tired, cranky. Corrie: Anybody else? (Inaudible) Corrie: If you want testimony let's get up here and talk. Let's not talk to each other out in the — it's getting late and we need to have this on the record. MERIDIAN CITY COUNC JULY 21, 1998 PAGE 74 Unidentified: Yeah, I mean this hasn't been presented to P & Z. I just want to see what you guys are looking at because I haven't seen it either. You know none of us have seen it. (Inaudible) Corrie: Anyone else? (End of Tape) Corrie: ...the decision on the preliminary plat anyway. Until the annexation and zoning is done. Rountree: Mr. Mayor, we can, but I would like to hear Gary's comments and Shari's comments on this when we see it again, but not at this point. I just indicated that I would like to have your comments when we see this again. Having said that, Mr. Mayor, I would move that we table decision on the preliminary plat for Thousand Springs until such time as we have revised Finding Of Facts on the request for annexation and zoning and the annexation ordinance is approved, which would be possibly August 18th, 1998. Anderson: Second. Corrie: Motion is made and second that we defer decision and table until August the 18th. Any further discussion? Hearing none all those in favor of the motion say aye? MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. ITEM NO. 11: DISCUSSION BY DON BRYAN — FLOODING PROBLEMS AT 2070 N. LOCUST GROVE: Bryan: Well, that wasn't much of a wait was it? For I think most of you folks know why I am here, because I've been coming here for seven years and it's been the same problem. To give the new council members a brief synopsis of what's been going on as I was — my property is on Locust Grove Road next to Fred Meyer development and when they first started developing the land around me in '91, was my first flood, and it came shortly after they developed Mirage Meadows and Chateau Meadows. That was June of '91 and July of '92 was the second flood. I have pictures of the second flood for those who haven't seen them. And I had another flood between then and now, but I had another flood three weeks ago when the big rains came. Each time it floods is a major rainstorm and each time I talk to either Nampa Meridian or Ada County Highway or you folks. Everybody tells me the same comment. Well, that's the worst rain I ever seen around here. And that's what they said this year, and it happened one good flood this year looked like that and there was two other instances that I know of that the water was backed up and coming out my drains. My irrigation drains I have two, one in the corner of my pasture and one in the corner of my orchard and they drain into the system that you guys approved and developed with Ada County, and when it rains and there's an over abundance of storm t MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL MEETING: JULY 21 1998 APPLICANT: FARWEST DEVELOPERS ITEM NUMBER: REQUEST • PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR THOUSAND SPRINGS SUB. — NORTH OF VICTORY & WEST OF EAGLE AGENCY COMMENTS CITY CLERK: SEE ATTACHED MINUTES FROM 6/17/98 SEE ATTACHED REVISED PLAT CITY ENGINEER: CITY PLANNING DIRECTOR: CITY ATTORNEY: CITY POLICE DEPT: CITY FIRE DEPT: CITY BUILDING DEPT: MERIDIAN SCHOOL DISTRICT: MERIDIAN POST OFFICE: ADA COUNTY HIGHWAY DISTRICT: ADA COUNTY STREET NAME COMMITTEE: CENTRAL DISTRICT HEALTH: NAMPA MERIDIAN IRRIGATION: SETTLERS IRRIGATION: IDAHO POWER: US WEST: INTERMOUNTAIN GAS: BUREAU OF RECLAMATION: OTHER: All Materials presented at public meetings shall become property of the City of Meridian. r MERIDIAN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING: JUNE 17, 1998 APPLICANT: FARWEST DEVELOPERS & MARTY GOLDSMITH AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 6 REQUEST: PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR THOUSAND SPRINGS SUB.

Smith: I have comment though that I'd like to add a condition in the Findings of Fact that the — this was brought up at the last meeting of the single story development along South Zims Way and South Boiling Springs Way on the south side of the road, I feel it Planning and Zoning Commission Special Meeting June 17, 1998 Page 44 would be good from a scale standpoint to provide a little transition there from a scale so I would like to add to the requirements of the Findings that all the lots on the south side of South Zims Way and South Boiling Springs Way be no more than single story in height.

Public hearing is now open. Is the applicant here for this one tonight? Prior: Hi ma'am, would you state your name and address and spell your last name for the record for me. Gillum: Amy Gillum, 2347 E. Apricot. AMY GILLUM WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY, Gillum: My intention is just to take in one to two children in my home so I can care for my own children at the same time. I'm not it to bother my neighbors or cause disruption I just want to care for my children. MacCoy: Is that all you have to say about it? Gillum: Yeah. MacCoy: Commissioners, do you have anything you want to ask her? Nelson: Yes Mr. Chairman, I'd like to — it looks like there's a letter here in my packet from Frank Sweigart, have you had an opportunity to read that letter? Gillum: Yes, I have. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 46 I think everything else that we previously looked at in C.U. pertains here. I'm not as familiar with your process – I guess we will wait for the stated time and find out which way the decision is on both of these applications and what your recommendation is to the council. Johnson: Yes, and to be real frank with you we won't proceed on a preliminary plat tonight. We'll table that item until we get the findings of fact on the conditional use permit. We would incorporate all of your prior testimony into this preliminary plat testimony as well. Any further questions? Anyone else would like to come forward? At this point then, I'll close this public hearing. Smith: Mr. Chairman, I would like to make a motion that we table this item—let me back up. I'd like to make a motion that we incorporate all previous testimony on the preceding agenda item into this item and that we table this item for discussion until our June 9t" meeting. MacCoy: Second. Johnson: We have a motion and a second to table this item and incorporate prior testimony on the conditional use permit into this application for item 14 which is really 15. All in favor? And opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. ITEM NO. 16: REQUEST FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF 121. 897 ACRES TO R-4 FOR PROPOSED THOUSAND SPRINGS SUBDIVISION BY FARWEST DEVELOPERS AND MARTY GOLDSMITH – NORTH OF VICTORY AND WEST OF EAGLE ROAD. Johnson: At this time I will open the public hearing and ask the applicant or the applicant's representative address the commission. Everything you bring tonight stays here. Prior: Anything that is damaged is taken out of – (inaudible) BECKY BOWCUTT BRIGGS ENGINEERING 1111 S. ORCHARD WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Bowcutt: We're coming before you this evening with an application for annexation from R -T, rural transition, under Ada County jurisdiction to R-4, which is a low density residential zone. We're asking for annexation of 121.227 total acres, and then we also 1 Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 47 have a preliminary plat application. Can I just combine the two, may I do that to expedite? No, okay. Prior: We can incorporate after you're done. Bowcutt: Excellent. I just don't want to have to say the same thing twice. Johnson: Well, we just have to let you know that we're still running the meeting. Bowcutt: Okay, this particular property to let you know where it's located, this here is Eagle Road right here on our south boundary is Victory Road. On our western boundary is Los Alimitos Subdivision. It goes on out to Locust Grove here. On our west boundary is the proposed Sherbrooke Subdivision which was approved by this body here about six months ago. This parcel between the two is an undeveloped R -T parcel. The Ridenbaugh Canal border this parcel and this legal description runs to the center line of the canal and Ridenbaugh wraps around it's northern boundary and goes out and intersect with Eagle Road. All the lots proposed in this development are 8000 square foot or greater. They all have 80 feet of frontage or greater. Johnson: Excuse me, Becky. Could you put that so the public can see it and then use that portable mike down there if you need to because that unhooks. Everybody should have a shot at seeing that. Bowcutt: I won't break it. This probably looks familiar to you, the property, and that's because oh, about three years ago it came before some of the members that have been here quite a while called Highlands Ranch Subdivision. In that particular subdivision, (End of Tape) Bowcutt: ...different from what we're proposing here. This is an old copy of it. It looked very similar to this. It included the Sherbrooke Subdivision, and then it also included Thousand Springs Subdivision that we're proposing here. They came in with one single application. They had about 682 dwellings that were originally proposed. On this particular parcel that you're looking at here, I believe there was about 512 dwellings proposed. At a density of 4 units per acre. What we're proposing here is 330 single family residential dwellings. And our density is 2.72 dwelling units per acre. To kind of give you an idea of what's around us, the Los Alimitos Subdivision on our western boundary is 2.9 dwelling units per acre. The Sherbrooke Subdivision there on our western boundary was 2.87. So with this particular density, it is lower that what has been proposed in this area at 2.72. I'd like to point out some of the items. I did read through the minutes from the previous meetings. I talked with city staff. I talked with the highway district, read the testimony submitted by the adjoining neighbors to kind of get an idea of what the problems were when this project originally came through. The Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 48 main issue I think was the mixed use in the original application, the density. And the fact that the neighbors had never had an opportunity to sit down with the developer and his representatives to discuss the project. So we went about this in a fashion to try to remedy the mistakes made the first time around under the other developer, and I would like to note that that particular developer is not this developer. The developer here is Farwest Developers who has done Los Alimitos and Salmon Rapids. We sent out a notification to all neighbors within 300 feet of the project and invited them to a neighborhood meeting. It was sent out as an invitation. It was held at the Sandman Motel. We had a room prepared. We sat down. I think we had six or eight individuals who live in this area, and we talked to them about the project, showed them our drafts. We had not even put it on the computer. So that we could incorporate some of their comments concerning this project. The feedback, we got some positive feedback, some negative feedback, and based upon the negative feedback, we tried to make some adjustments. In my — Johnson: How long ago was that? Bowcutt: That was held, I think back in February. Johnson: The month is fine. Borup: Your letter says March 9th? Bowcutt: End of February, first of March. Okay, that's cool. Johnson: I've got to remind you you're under oath. Bowcutt: Yes, sir. I'm trying to answer to the best of my ability. I've got a cold. It kind of makes me clouded in the head. Cold medicine does. One of the comments we had, our entrance was centered right at Eagle Road. I received a letter from Sutherland Farms who asked that we align our entrance with Gurdner Lane, which is located on the east side of Eagle Road. They said we intend in the future to develop our property. It would be beneficial if your street would align with our existing private lane so that at some point in time a signal could be placed for the subdivisions. So we did move our main entrance to the south and it is in alignment with Gurdner Lane. Secondly we have the fire station located on our southern, it would southeast corner. Gordon Harris owns the property just south of us, and he indicated to me that he did like the location of a future fire station there. He was afraid it would affect the value of his property and would cause some nuisance to him. So his preference was we move the fire station to the north, and we did, and that's what you see the large square area on the northeast corner. We talked to the representative from the Mortimer Family Trust. Her main concern was that we incorporate the right to farm clause out of the state code and place Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 49 that on our final plat that we submit to the city, because they have a working farm just south of us on Victory. We indicated to her that we agreed to do that. We did it for the Sherbrooke Subdivision and basically protects her right as far as their agricultural pursuits that any residents cannot complain about the bailing of hay in the wee hours or cattle or etc. Johnson: And that would also be part of the development agreement anyway, right? Bowcutt: Mrs. Glick attended our meeting. She lives right here on an acre parcel. Right here at our entrance. We had proposed a stub street to her property in the event that parcel ever redeveloped. She indicated to me that she did not want that stub street, that she would like substantial landscaping, berming and fencing from our development. So we did eliminate that stub street to her. We increased the width of our landscaped area here to 32 feet, so it could accommodate a berm, substantial landscaping and a fence. Johnson: While you are over there, point out to me Gurdner Lane and tell me how far that is from the corner? Bowcutt: Gurdner Lane is right here. This is one quarter mile, it would be just a little bit over — Johnson: Over a quarter, okay. Bowcutt: The other thing she wanted was she said I don't want dog-eared fenced. I'd like some type of fence, wood would be okay. But I'd like a cap on it or something that is aesthetically pleasing. I did talk with the developer and he said that he would be willing to install some fencing that would be acceptable, not dog-eared. One of the other questions was what do we propose as far as our fencing along the Ridenbaugh Canal. We intend to put wrought iron fencing just like we have in Los Alimitos. So it will match. It's a non-combustible permanent type fencing. The Fritzes live, I think they live right here. They attended our meeting. The comments that we received from were to the effect we're lower, our property is lower than this parcel so you sit up high, and that is correct. Our parcel does sit up maybe 15 maybe 20 feet higher than their parcel. They stated that they would like to see some trees installed along that perimeter where we adjoin their property there on the southwest area. I did talk to the developer and he said that there are some mature trees on the property that he will relocated and he said we could put some of those there and then add some additional trees. One of the other comments was they would like to see only limitation of one story homes only on that bench area there by the Ridenbaugh Canal. I did talk with the developer about that and his indication was he disagreed with the one story homes. What I told them is my experience with development throughout the valley, we have never had a restriction Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 50 whether a home a single family dwelling could be one or two stories. It's basically a right. If you want to build one or you want to build two, there's a maximum height in every zone, which is typically around 35 feet in most jurisdictions that limits the height of a two story. The only time we have ever seen limitations on height would be when we are doing apartments, and someone wants to do three story apartment buildings which are very bulky adjoining single family. In those instances we have been limited to two story. Johnson: You can't argue point about the legality of it, but I know for a fact that concessions have been made by developers in order to get a project approved to include, for example, a row of single family one level single level homes, and I can show you some places in Meridian where that's been done. Bowcutt: Yes, sir. I believe I've had one project in Meridian, the Sherbrooke project where we designated certain lots to be one story; that is correct, but it is always been — it has not been a requirement, but a concession as you said by the developer. The existing city limits in this area are at Los Alimitos and Sherbrooke. They are both zoned R-4, which is consistent with what we're proposing here, so we do abut the city limits of Meridian. As*far as services are concerned, central sewer and water is available in this area. A sewer trunk line will come through Sherbrooke and Sherbrooke is currently under construction in phase one. We have two options. The sewer could be brought through here, or the sewer could be extended out Los Alimitos. We've also got water . here and water located here. It has been the city engineer's comment as far as water is concerned that he wanted water to stay within a public right-of-way. So based on his previous comments, water would be extended through here, and then we'll put a street through here to bring the water like this so we have a connection and then we will put a separate lot here to run water through for future connection to that well. The sewer depth is sixteen feet right here. Ten feet here, and our preliminary sewer profiles, we have profiled it in both directions. All of these streets, and this can gravity flow into the existing trunk line. The property here is an elevation of 72. And back here you've got a finish grade of 52. So basically this property when you get to Eagle Road is 20 feet higher. So we do have the ability to gravity flow this into those trunk lines. One of the other issues with this project was a bridge. In the Sherbrooke project, we had a pedestrian bridge right here proposed. That was based on receiving Nampa Meridian Irrigation District approval, because a license agreement must be obtained from their board in order to construct that. The Sherbrooke development is trust funding for $15,000 for half the cost of the pedestrian bridge. The Thousand Springs project will trust fund for the other half of that pedestrian bridge. We are proposing a vehicular bridge connection right here to three bars which was stubbed out with a temporary turn around here in Los Alimitos. We will bridge the Ridenbaugh Canal, and make that vehicular connection. As you can see right here, this is the center section for this particular, I think section 20. In trying to figure out where's the best place to put a Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 51 vehicular bridge, we looked at the entire section and evaluated what's around us. This is the future school or city park site that was set aside in Los Alimitos. It's about 2.4 acres. Just north of it is 4.2 acres set aside by J.L. Vogt Development Co. for a future school and park site. We in turn are setting aside this area here for a future school and park site and that area is 3.85 acres. Johnson: Talk to me about that area, because if my memory serves me right, that's basically a swamp. Bowcutt: When I went out there and walked through that, it was this winter. It was not swampy this winter. 1 have not been out there since irrigation came down the Ridenbaugh Canal. It is kind of low in there. The canal sits high. Johnson: If I remember a discussion earlier, one of the other applications, that parcel of land was offered to the city and they didn't want it for that reason. That's the way I remember it. Bowcutt: In my meetings with Jim Carberry of Meridian School District, Jim indicated to me that the school district wanted to see this set aside. That this parcel was set aside and this one to the south, then they wanted a chunk out of this one and then when this 80 here develops. Then they would extract an additional three to four acres in that parcel also. Between all those developments, they would have a property large enough for an elementary school. If they so choose. Johnson: They are looking at ten to twelve acres; don't they? Bowcutt: Ten is too small. Their preference now is about 12 to 14. Also right here in the G.L. Vogt property, is a 54 acre high school site that I assisted them in their negotiations with the school district. My company did a conceptual high school layout based on the Eagle. High School concept to provide them with a site plan to make a determination on how that parcel would be shaped and how large of a parcel they would need. So this will be a high school site. The estimate that I've got from the school district is they believe they will need that within seven years. However, it will take up a bond issue to build a high school, but the land has been sold to the Meridian School District. So in making this vehicular connection eventually this will be a high school. And we'll have that connection this street comes up here by the park and would go into the high school site. The high school has a collector street that will come off of Overland Road for its primary access, so this would not be a primary access but more of a secondary access and a connection between all of these developments within the interior of this section. The highway district also asked for a pedestrian, half the cost of a pedestrian bridge here at the Ridenbaugh Canal. This is an undeveloped 80 here also. I think under the comprehensive plan, that's designated for planned use #. r Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 52 development or something like that. It has frontage on Overland and Eagle Road so you have an intersection there. It will most likely come in with some type of a mixed use. Maybe an office, maybe commercial, residential type mixed use. No one knows at this time. So we'll make that pedestrian connection there, but it will be one half the cost of that ped path, and it will not be constructed by us. But will be constructed when the highway district gets the other half. I'd also like to note that that would be subject to Nampa Meridian Irrigation District approval. I have spoken with them multiple times on these issues of pedestrian bridges, and they waffle back and forth. You talk to them one day, they say they don't want them, they will not approve them, and you talk to them the next day, and they said well, maybe we will accept it if it's fully caged, so that we don't have any type of a hazard with kids playing on the bridge, jumping off, using ropes to put a little boogey board or something along that line. One of the other things that we did is we set aside the well lot here for a future city well lot. The well lot is .32 acres. The future fire station lot is 1.41 acres. Johnson: Show me both of those again. I was looking down. Bowcutt: This is the well lot. This is the fire station lot. This is 1.41 acres and this .32. We determined the size of this based on our past experience with a fire department and a future fire station site and that was with Whitney Fire out south off Maple Grove. And so we were cognizant of the fact those trucks need to pull in and be able to loop back out and so forth. And so we tried to make it large and as deep as possible. The city requires landscaping along the perimeter of Eagle Road because it is a corridor. We have allocated, I believe the city requires 30 feet, we've allocated 40 so we can do some berming and some nice landscaping. Along Victory Road, we have 30 feet. We have approximately 5.2 acres common area throughout the project. That would the area that you see in green with trees excluding this. This is not calculated into that. We have a collector road that comes in to this intersection here. That collector road no homes would front on that. It'd have landscaping along it perimeter. We have a collector street that comes into this intersection. The same holds true here. We'd have landscaping along that perimeter. The highway district has also asked us to put a stub street through this one common area here to a parcel that sits right in here. It would be north of Mrs. Glick's parcel, so that stub street would not go into Mrs. Glicks. They asked for a stub street at this location and this location. So we have provided for interconnection within this section and other undeveloped parcels and then the bridge. The bridge alone, the vehicular bridge is going to be $300,000, and that is determined by Ada County Highway District, so it is a very expensive endeavor. It will have to be engineered. It will have to have license agreement from Nampa Meridian. But we feel it is important to make that vehicular connection within the interior of this section. This is the opportunity to do so. We've created a little park area right at the entrance. One thing I dislike is in subdivisions when you come at an entrance and you have a buildable lot right there at that intersection because you do see a lot of traffic come through here Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 53 and someone trying to back in and then you've got cars ingressing here. So that is not a buildable lot, that would be like a park lot. We could put a little square in there. We've talked about various ideas, waterfalls, landscaping, etc. Multiple things to make it attractive so that our entrance has some character. We did submit a variance application for review by the city council. That variance deals with exempting the Ridenbaugh from being piped because it exceeds a 48" and secondly we do have some blocks lengths that exceed 1,000 feet. And the block lengths primarily are around the Ridenbaugh Canal, and when we deal with an irrigation canal of that size and that length, our block lengths get too long. We cannot break them up because you just can't put a street that goes no where or a micropath that goes no where, but we did try to break them up with micropath connections, and provide some interconnection. The green areas that you see at the end of some of those blocks, those are for storm drainage. Johnson: What is the length of your longest cul-de-sac? Bowcutt: I don't have any cul-de-sacs that exceed 450 feet. Johnson: That one there. Bowcutt: Which one? Johnson: Coming straight down to the property edge, how long is that one approximately? Bowcutt: This one right here? This one I believe is right smack at 450 from center to center. Johnson: Yeah, it looks like it's right at our limit. Bowcutt: It is right at your limit, I believe without measuring it. And that will be a permanent cul-de-sac, but will go on because we've had problems with temporary turn arounds in the past, and how do you deal with them? How do you keep the lot owner from tearing out the asphalt. The city has had many concerns. So we decided we'll just put in a permanent turn around with a little notch for extension to the south and the lot is big that we don't have to worry about encroachment of the temporary turn around into it. One of the other items I would like to bring up is the fact that we are promoting detached sidewalks internally within the project. We'd have five foot sidewalks on our perimeter, Eagle Road and Victory. Those would be within the right-of-way. I believe one foot off of new right-of-way. And we would be installing left hand turn base, that was a requirement of Ada County Highway District on Eagle Road and on Victory. But internally we will have detached sidewalks that will be four feet from the back of curb. i Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 54 What that allows us to do is you have a landscaped area, and you create a boulevard affect. If you guys have ever been out to Bay Hill Springs, that project has it. Edgeview Estates, the Legend Subdivision, we've done it in all three of those. In staff's comments, they indicated their preference would be to expand the right-of-way to incorporate the detached sidewalk. However, our preference is we leave our right-of- ways at 50 feet and we have the sidewalk on an easement. The overhand of the sidewalk is two feet on each side of the street. That's based on a 36 section from back of curb. The old section is 37, but the highway district will be changing that as of July, so they have given us the option of doing a 36 section or a 37 foot section. So on the cross section you see on the corner, it shows a two and a half foot overlap, but that will be a two foot overlap. We've done it in the past. It works very well. Your setbacks are the same. The home owner is responsible for mowing that grassed area and planting the trees. You govern it through the covenants, and that dictates consistency and landscaping. Typically those trees in that four foot area are trees like flowering plums, flowering crab apples, those types of trees. They are a more decorative tree. They don't get large so that you don't have the roots in twenty years tearing up the sidewalks. And it creates a very nice tree canopy as you drive down the streets. I went to a class a couple of years ago on transportation and better transportation planning, and that was one of their recommendations to detach your sidewalks. It makes the pedestrian feel more comfortable walking down the sidewalk because the sidewalk is detached from the back of curb. They feel safer. Also when you get the trees to that point of maturity where you've got a tree canopy, it has the illusion of making the roadway that is the asphalt surface appear narrower than it is in reality. Therefore, people have a tendency, it's been proven and tested, people have a tendency to go slower through the neighborhood. It's a good concept. It really works, and we think it make a lot of sense. When you go through subdivisions that have detached sidewalks and then you turn and you drive in one that does not, it looks like a sea of asphalt and a sea of concrete, back to back. But just detaching four foot makes a world of difference. I think that's all the comments that I'll make concerning the annexation. I'll go — I'd like to go through my answers to staff's comments concerning the preliminary plat on the next item if you don't mind. Johnson: Okay, thank you very much. I want to congratulate you. We've come a long ways. I remember three years ago every other words was basically. Do you remember that? Bowcutt: You lectured me on that. I don't think I've said that tonight, did I? Johnson: Not once. That was great. I love it. Bowcutt: Your opinion matters. i Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 55 Johnson: I having a little of influence. Take off for me the amenities to the city because normally on a project this size that's what we look for. So we've got the fire station. Bowcutt: The fire station parcel. Johnson: And we've got the well site. Bowcutt: The well site, the matching parcel to match up with those for a future school or park. I don't know which way it's going to go. And I don't think anybody is quite sure. Johnson: And the ownership is different on those other parcels, right? Bowcutt: The G.L. Vogt parcel was deeded to the city of Meridian about a year and a half ago. The parcel within Los Alimitos, the school district has a five year option that they may exercise. If they not to exercise the parcel is deeded to the City of Meridian, and that's on that final plat. So it's between the city and the school district basically on what transpires. Jim Carberry told me — we asked him if he wanted a school site in this parcel. His comment to me is why should the school district pay for a site in this parcel or in the Sherbrooke parcel -- we also offered to him in this one — when I can get one free here. So if we need one in this section, we will build it here. Johnson: Well, that makes sense. I understand with the cost of land and everything. But that's the total amenities, right? Bowcutt: Those are the amenities that we are proposing, yes, sir, and then obviously the landscaping for the aesthetics. Johnson: Okay, I don't have any questions. Questions of Beck? Borup: I'm very interested in your park and school site. Could you clarify you said the Vogt land has been deeded to the City of Meridian? Bowcutt: Yes, sir. Borup: And then the City of Meridian would need to sell it to the school for it to become a school site? Bowcutt: I'm not sure how that would work. I don't think anybody ever talked about the city selling it to the school district. I think— Borup: How does it become a school site then? Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 56 Bowcutt: The discussion was if the school district needed it for an elementary site, then the city would grant it to the school district. I never heard any discussion that the school would purchase it. Borup: Do you know how long ago that happened, the deed? Bowcutt: It was done when the high school site was sold to the school district which was I would say probably a year and a half to two years ago. Borup: I don't think the parks commission is aware of that. That's interesting. Your understanding ten or twelve acres is what they need for a school site, and that includes playground area etc. I assume. Bowcutt: In twelve to fourteen acres, yes. Borup: Right now the three parcels total up to 10.25. Bowcutt: These three? That's probably correct. So they would need probably at least two acres at a minimum, maybe three out of this 80 here, and then you'd have the four pieces of the puzzle. Borup: How much of that would — if it was done as a dual site, how much of that would be school site and how much would be usable as a park site? Or is it too early to tell that? Bowcutt: To give you — Borup: I'm interested in the park. Bowcutt: Okay, to give you an example I did a joint use school and park site in Edgeview Estates on Cloverdale Road. It lies next to 1-84 on the north side. We did a joint elementary school and Boise City park site. The school district had seven and I believe Boise City had seven. It was just I believe a little over 14 acres, and it's utilized currently as joint use site. Borup: Okay, thank you. Well this is more of a curiosity question, you was talking about the bridge being built and a bridge trust set aside between the two subdivisions. That is set aside for who to build at a future point or ACRD? Is that what's that set aside for or why the developers go ahead and just build the. k?ridge? Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 57 Bowcutt: Typically when we trust fund the highway district, if it's a two party trust fund when the second party comes in the second party builds it. Borup: So you are waiting for the development to reach that point? Bowcutt: Yes. Borup: Question on the detached walks, and I agree with what you were talking, the question I had with the right-of-way staying the same. Is there any increase in your — in the covenants talking about any increase in the setback on the house? What does that do to the driveway lengths? It looks to me like you are losing two feet out of the distance from the property to your garage. Assuming the garage is out front. Bowcutt: Technically you wouldn't — Borup: -- 20 foot setbacks to the house from the property line? Bowcutt: Yes. Shari and I kind of had a discussion on that. I think Shari's comment to me was you know, special setbacks, she can correct me if I'm wrong are difficult to administer if each subdivision has different setbacks. As far as your driveway length, if you can envision it, if the back of the curb, you would have where your driveway intersects, you would have 4 feet of concrete then you would have 5 feet of sidewalk and then your driveway would have to go 18 feet to get to the garage if the home was set 20 feet from edge of right-of-way. Borup: But theoretically could have 18 feet from the sidewalk to the garage then, is that what you are saying? Bowcutt: Correct. From the edge of the sidewalk, the driveway technically could be 18 feet if the home was exactly at 20 setback. Borup: So John couldn't park his big Lincoln Continental there in the driveway very well. Bowcutt: Is it bigger than 18 feet? Prior: Is that what I drive? Bowcutt: You mean as far as would it hang out in the back of the sidewalk? t Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 58 Borup: I maybe wrong, I've always assumed that one of the reasons for a 20 foot setback is you got a car comfortably in the driveway. I don't know if this is going to be a concern here. Some big vehicles — Bowcutt: Are they 20 feet? Because of a lot of garages are — Borup: I don't know anymore. There used to be. Bowcutt: A lot of garages are 20 by 20. Borup: Yeah, and there's some cars that won't fit. Bowcutt: Yeah, some you've got to pull right up against the wall. I think a full size, the old full size station wagons, I think you've got to pull them right up against the wall to get them to fit in a standard 20 foot deep garage. Borup: That's all I have at this point. MacCoy: Becky, on the well site, was that picked by you people or do you work that out with the city? Bowcutt: I did talk with staff over the phone as far as what would be the best location. The comments I received one, they would like access to it. Good access, vehicular access. Two, they said that the closest city well is over at Locust Grove and so the location even though I believe it was on your comp plan as being here at the intersection, that the best location for our site would be up against Eagle Road which would separate those wells by one mile and they felt that if we could get it within that Eagle Road corridor, that would be acceptable. MacCoy: Are you talking to Gary Smith? Bowcutt: No, I talked to Bruce. MacCoy: On the fire house, and I remember it was down in the corner, and so you mentioned about sizing the land on that. Did that come out of Kenny Bower or did it come from just your past experience or what? Bowcutt: The size of it came from our past experience with Whitney Fire Department on a satellite fire station for them. I did not send A copy to Mr. Bowers for his revieyv. I know Shari sent one and he did send a comment sheet back, but there was no discussion concerning is this acceptable in depth and length? Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 59 MacCoy: You're not planning to design the fire house are you? Bowcutt: No, sir. MacCoy: I just wanted to find out. Bowcutt: I just want to make sure it's big enough that somebody else can do that. MacCoy: That's what I am worried about because I've got a responsibility on the fire houses that I came up with a plan, and I want to be sure we've got the right property and the right sizing. Bowcutt: Yes, if it required some additional depth, I do have some leeway within that block that it adjoins to pull those lots over. Those lots are deep. I think they are 120 1 think at the narrowest point, and then as you can see these lots are very large so if one had to say shift that over in order to give it a little more width, it would be possible without any detriment to the plan. I would like to have some specific comments from the fire department on that site. MacCoy: I see that since we are at this point in the game now, you will receive some now because we are getting down to the point. One of the things of course in our case is money, but we've got some plans put together now for the four satellite houses. The one for Cherry has already been laid out so we have some real plans for these things now. Bowcutt: We could even blow that up to scale on at a larger scale if you know what scale your fire house plan is. Then we could blow that up on a transparency for you to overlay on to your site plan to make sure. MacCoy: Okay, we'll get back to you with that. And remember that other property we had the last time we went through this whole process, one of the problems we had was the entrance to the land off of Victory, I think it was off of Victory, and we asked for a second egress off of the same property some place else. Do you recall that? Bowcutt: No, sir, I don't. MacCoy: It was a hang up for a while. Johnson: I thought it was the property to the west of that where Sherbrooke is now where they asked for that other access. That's the way I remember it. MacCoy: Okay. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 60 Johnson: We're talking years ago. Bowcutt: As far as the approach, the highway district has — they will allow an approach here at the joint property line with the well lot. And then they will allow the fire department another approach within that area there, so there will be two approaches to that future fire station. MacCoy: Okay, I want to pass. Smith: Can you tell a little bit about the school site? How much did we pay for it? Bowcutt: How much did the city pay for which one? Smith: How much for the school district or the city — are you proposing a price for this — basically it's a worthless piece of land. Bowcutt: No, sir. Smith: Well, I don't see how you are going utilize that area with the way your tie is proposed right now to Three Bars Drive. Bowcutt: To answer your — Smith: -- little chunk of land there. Bowcutt: To answer your question, this right here, are we charging a price for that? No, sir. It is a gift. Smith: Great. Bowcutt: For the record, the property for the fire station, the property for the well lot, the property for the future school and park site is a gift to the city. Smith: Well great. That takes care of that right now. Johnson: If it's free you don't care how bad the land is. Smith: I'm really impressed with that because it's seems to be a totally foreign concept around Idaho that developers come in and actually donate land for schools, parks, etc. and I'm impressed. I haven't seen it since I've been on the commission, so let's not dwell on that. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 61 Bowcutt: Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Smith, one thing that facilitated that was the city coming up with a concept for each one of the developments around that middle section corner to provide a little bit. It's really difficult for a developer just to hand over 14 acres to the school district free of charge or hand over ten acres to the city free of charge for a park. When each of us gives — when everybody gives 2.4 to 4.2 acres, it works great if they can afford it. Johnson: It's all relative to the size of the development, and Byron's right, we haven't had any applications of this magnitude I don't think since you've been on here. Smith: No. Johnson: But the amenity thing is what I was referring to earlier is gifted, and we should continue to insist on those or request those whenever possible. It doesn't make sense when somebody is developing nine acres. Smith: All right. Then the concept along the design of the homes, I'm assuming that this is going to be your typical single family home development where when you drive down the street, you pretty much looking at garages. Bowcutt: As far as the style of the homes, I don't bring with me elevations of the homes that are going to go in there, because I don't know what those homes will look like. I understand what you are saying. The City of Boise has been echoing the same concerns. You drive through, you see a very large three -car garage and then sometimes you see maybe 25, 30 feet of house tucked back behind the garage. One of the things that the City of Boise is doing is reducing setbacks, front yard setbacks if one is to have a side entry garage to promote that. The other issue is promoting alleys so that you alley load the lots so the garages are in the rear. Those are two concepts. The latter is the least accepted in this valley. People here have not been really willing to do that. The developers, the builders, some of the cities have frowned on it. I've got a test case right now in the City of Kuna called Sutters Mill Subdivision. It's off Ten Mile just south of the tracks, if you are ever out in that area. It has alley loading lots. Up to this point, it's been very successful, but the developer had to go back east and get plans for his builders to build these because they don't have anything like that and builders are reluctant to go out and have an architect draw all new plans and trash everything that they have developed over the past few years. Johnson: We had an application like that a couple of months ago. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 62 Bowcutt: So as far as what these houses look will look like, they'll be probably consistent with what you see in Salmon Rapids and Los Alimitos. Some may be very stacked and look like all garage. Some homes are very attractive. It all depends. Smith: It seems like it would be difficult with some of the dimensions on some of these lots to get into a side loaded garage kind of situation anyway. Bowcutt: Yes. Smith: The way this is designed right now. I have personally been involved in some alley loaded home designs in the Boise area myself, and they'll be getting geared up to sell those this summer, so we'll see how that goes out at Hidden Springs. I guess that basically answers the questions that I had on that. Johnson: Okay, thanks. Anything Mark? Nelson: No, thank you. Johnson: Thanks Becky. Anyone else would like to come before the commission on this? I assume that's why you people are here. Yes, sir. MARVIN HANSON 2460 E. VICTORY ROAD WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Hanson: I'm not sure on here where my boundaries are. Can I come over there? Johnson: Yeah, take that mike please. Hanson: My property is right along here. I have the pie shaped piece and I'm not sure where it ends up here. On the plat that we did like three years ago, it was all marked out. But I counted maybe ten homes that are going to be in my back yard. Last time we went through all this and we reduced those homes way down and they agreed to single level houses. And I would like to see that done again. I have planted over 50 trees here just in the last two months as a border. They are just small trees. It is going to take them several years. Like the neighbors, our land is down. It's the canal, then the other land slopes way up. There is more than 15 feet. There is probably at least 30 feet before you get up on the flats up here that looks down over my house. I would really like to see those as single story houses. I know that when I built my house, I could be up on the roof putting the shingles on and I couldn't see up on the flats up here. It's that much higher. I can't — like I say I live here. Bogus Basin is up here. I can't even see the peaks of that over this raise in the land right there, so it is considerably high, so I would like to see single story houses, and I would like to see Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 63 trees planted along here on the other side of the canal, the other side from me. I have put my trees in. It's just going to take them several years. Bushes, berms, fences, they are not going to do any good because of the slope of this property here. If they build houses here, by the time the yards come here to the canal, there's probably going to be maybe 15 — 20 feet in elevation difference. So I would like to have some larger trees planted in there, and they have put one tree in there right behind my house. Why one I don't know. They have planted several other up in there, but they would be further up in here. I don't know what their reasoning is unless they are just transplanting them there now for a place to have them for later. I don't know that. Thank you. Johnson: Any questions of Mr. Hanson? Borup: I have a couple. Do you know how far your house is off Overland? Apparently your house is back tucked against the canal; is that correct? (End of Tape) Hanson: ... a hundred and fifty feet off of Victory Road. Johnson: Thank you. Borup: And you're back in up in there. Hanson: It's a pie shape. Borup: -- on the west side of your property. Hanson: Actually my house is pretty much in the center of my property. Well, it would be off more to the west a little bit because I do have the triangle pie. Borup: How far away are you from the canal is what I'm wondering? Hanson: My house, I'm not sure. I do have a shop that sits back behind my house. And when I built the shop, I had to stay off of the right-of-way of the canal, and I believe I'm probably I think the canal right-of-way was 20 feet and I'm ten feet more than that. So I'm about 30 feet off the canal. Well, not the canal, there's Nile Mile drainage down there, so I am off of that also. Borup: The drainage is south of the canal? Hanson: Yes, it is. Borup: So you're from the drainage and then you've got some more and then the canal and then — do you know the — Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 64 Hanson: There's my shop about 30 feet, nine mile drainage and then above that is the canal right next to it. Borup: Do you know what the canal easement is by chance? Hanson: I thought it was 20 feet, but this has been about four years, I built my shop, so I don't remember for sure. Borup: 50 feet on this application and they're usually to the middle of the canal I believe. So I am assuming that (inaudible) They've got a 50 foot right-of-way to the centerline of the canal. Hanson: Mine could have been 50 also. Borup: Well, I would put about a hundred feet — I'm trying to get a feel from how far away your house is from the subdivision. Hanson: I would say my house is probably to the center of the canal, is probably — are you talking about my house or my shop? Borup: Your house. Hanson: Okay, probably 75 to a hundred feet. Borup: Well, the easement is more than that. Hanson: No, you just said it was — Borup: You said there was another drainage between your house and the canal. Hanson: The drainage is right next to the canal. You've got the canal and the road for the canal, and it's just right at the base of the road. Borup: You mentioned you had a concern for two story houses along that property, I'm not sure why. So you can see Bogus Basin. Hanson: No, I just don't want a bunch of people looking down. Single story house, they are going to be bad enough especially if they put in all these that they are talking about. I moved out there to be away from all this, and I didn't realize it was coming in so quick and that it would be so dense. r Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 65 Borup: Okay, that's all I have. Thank you. Johnson: Anyone else? GORDON HARRIS 2825 S. EAGLE ROAD WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Harris: First of all I'd like to thank Becky Bowcutt for moving that fire station from my driveway down to the canal. That was really a major concern of my wife and I. Another thing our property sets right near here. And we have a street coming into the back of our property and we're zoned for five acre lots, and so I don't see the need for having a street coming into the back of our property there at this time. What I would like to ask for is the sewer connection come here at the end of the cul-de-sac and if I had to.pay fir the difference — they got I think on their plat, they've got a man hole sitting about right tPere. I would pay for the extension on to my property, because all of my property will rain west and north, so I guess that was my only concern. Johnson: Does that street have a name on it there? Harris: This is E. Sheep Creek and this is Molly's Way. Johnson: Okay, any questions of Mr. Harris? Thank you. RUTH FRITTS 2384 E. VICTORY ROAD WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Fritts: We border the property on the back of the Ridenbaugh Canal. In this area right here. We did ask Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision to limit this tracking of houses that borders our pasture to be single level houses, and they agreed to do that. Our house sits — Johnson: Excuse me, have they built any homes on there yet? Fritts: No, sir, they have not. They are still in phase one. This is phase three. Our house sits about 175 to 200 feet off of Victory Road. So it sits towards the back of the property. You would probably see about 200 feet into the 24 and 17. Right now basically if they were to build two story houses, they would cut off our view to Bogus which in turn cuts out T.V. reception, everything else. We are going to have to go to satellite dish in order to be able to get some kind of T.V. in this area. Johnson: Excuse me, does your property but up to Mr. Hanson's or is there — Fritts: Yes, sir. We are neighbors. My other concerns was the right to farm. We do have cattle out in that pasture area. We have had problems due to the housing in the E Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 66 Los Alimitos area with pedestrian traffic and animals, uncontrolled animals on the Ridenbaugh Canal. We have had dogs come through our pasture and attack our dog in our own back yard. The traffic on the Ridenbaugh has increased tremendously including up to midnight and 1:00 A.M. in the morning. You see cars up and down that Ridenbaugh because of the increased housing around the area. I feel with the increased housing that they are going to put in this area, that that traffic is going to increase even more especially with children. I'm concerned about park areas. As you notice the park areas are only basically at your street stubbing out on to the main streets. If I was a parent I wouldn't want my children playing in a park area that borders one of the main streets out there, so my concern is where are they going to go play? The other concern is the increased traffic on Victory and Eagle Road. The stop sign are not going to be adequate for us to be able to get out and, get to work. Basically you are talking 330 homes, possibly 1.5 to 2 cars per day going out of there trying to get access to the freeway. So basically they are going to come out either, have to come Victory, go back towards Meridian, access Meridian Road or they are going to be on Eagle Road. And if you will notice in the plat too, which Becky says that most of the lots are 80 foot frontages, if you'll look in there, there's a lot of frontages that are 40 feet to 70 feet. Those are really small frontage lots. And then you'll notice too approximately 5 to 6 acres of easement of the Ridenbaugh Canal is included I think you'll find in that 2.72 dwelling units per acre which will put your dwellings per acre a lot higher than that if you take into consideration for those easements. Most of those easements along that border our property are at least 50 foot. And the last thing I had is I had a question, there was a plan at one time to make acre and five acre lots in between subdivisions and farming. For some reason we have deviated out of this. I would kind of like to know where the planning is going for if this subdivision comes in, how far do I have to move out. I chose to live in the country, not in a subdivision is the reason why I'm living where I'm living. How far do I need to move out? Johnson: Any questions? MacCoy: I have one question. You say the traffic on the canal road, is that a dirt road? Fritts: That is a dirt road. MacCoy: It's a service road, isn't.it? Fritts: It's a service road and there are people up there. MacCoy: On foot or car? Fritts: Car, with a car. Our house sits where the bedrooms are facing Victory so our main portion of the house, the living room, kitchen, dining room, all sit to the back of the Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 67 house. So we never close our blinds on that because basically we don't back up to anybody but the canal, and you see these people driving all night long. I have called and complained and basically unless they can catch them there is nothing they say that they can do. MacCoy: I think it's interesting the fact that in some of the canal roads I've seen, they've got them gated so that only the canal people have a key to the lock. Fritts: So they are gated? I know down by the Hanson's, there is a gate there, but they use the Hanson's property to go up and around the gate. MacCoy: Where there's a will, there's a way, I guess. Okay, thank you. Johnson: Anyone else? GARY ALLEN 277 N. 6T" STREET WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Allen: Thank you Mr. Chairman, members of the commission. I've been retained recently by Mr. Jim Griffin who owns the property, the large undeveloped property just to the north of the Ridenbaugh Canal. He's asked us to observe the proceedings tonight. I'm not hereto either support or oppose this subdivision, but what we'd like to ask is for just a little more time to look at it. We would simply ask that the record be kept open for written testimony until Friday so that we could look at this a little further and offer some more comments. Johnson: Yeah, that probably won't happen. But there are other opportunities for you because this would go on to the city council. It just depends on what the commission decides to do tonight. You would have an opportunity for additional testimony is my point. Allen: Okay, thank you Mr. Chairman. Johnson: Any questions to Mr. Allen. Would you point out to me where the properties are on the map, please? Allen: Yes, I will. This is the property right up here. This undeveloped property. Johnson: Okay, thank you. Borup: Question for Mr. Allen. Does this property go clear to — is this the property referred to as fronting on Overland also? Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 68 Allen: I believe it does front on Overland. Borup: So you've got fronting on both Overland and Eagle. Allen: Yes. Borup: At this point, did you client have any plans, any tentative plans? Allen: Not that I know of. I have just been brought in this afternoon actually to look at this. I don't think there are any short term development plans. Borup: And specific concerns? Allen: No, not at this point, but like I say, we would like a little more time to take a look at this. I hadn't seen the plat before tonight, so we'll take whatever opportunities we're given to take another look at it. Smith: Mr. Allen, What's your profession? Allen: I'm an attorney with the Givens, Pursley law firm. Smith: Thank you. Johnson: Anybody else would like to come forward and discuss this. BOB FRITTS 2384 E. VICTORY WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Fritts: My question is, my wife didn't bring it up is the safety part on the Victory access and that is at a down point on our road. There is a lot of traffic. There's a lot of high speed traffic and it's a very unsafe area as what the Eagle Road is. All the wrecks on Eagle Road happen right as you rise up over by the dairy and both places are very unstragic places for access. They are absolutely horrible. I just think that something needs to be done about that. And then the other thing of course is two story house problem. I talked to Becky, and I said I would like to have the developer come sit in my front room in my chair and look at my view. Because we are going to lose it and I think it's real important to me. So the safety aspect and the proximity of where we want to live is real important. I think that's a real safety problem. You guys better look at that safety problem. Just high speed traffic on that road, it's not patrolled and it's a problem especially motorcycles at night. They are just smoking through there. Smith: Mr. Chairman, I did notice the slope on Victory Road too when I visited the site and it was a concern of mine too, but I didn't see anything in ACHD comments about it. t Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 69 I can a potential hazard there, but I'm surprised they didn't address it. They are the ones that have jurisdiction over there. MacCoy: Well, in past work we've done with ACRD, they have noted that one in that area of Victory as well as the one on Eagle, that hump in it. It's really a nasty place. Smith: Well, did I missed something on ACHD comments because I didn't see anything. MacCoy: No, I didn't see it either, but I just know the past history we've had them make comment and actually make a statement about the one on Eagle. Smith: I think they did talk about a deceleration lane and so forth. Johnson: Anyone else? NANCY HANSON 2460 E. VICTORY ROAD WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. N. Hanson: I have a letter that I've written for you and so I'll bring you a copy and I'll just read it to you. As we have stated in several prior letters and at several prior hearings as this and other nearby property has been developed, we believe that Meridian should stay with its long range plan which states it will have a buffer between dense population and rural property. We live on four acres, and most of our neighbors have acreages or farms. We do not believe that R-4 zoning adjoining acreages is in keeping with your long range plan. Going from 121 Y2 acres of farmland, which I think currently has 2 houses on it to 121.5 acre subdivision with 330 houses on it is a major impact to the community. Core services in the Meridian area will be stressed by this subdivision and traffic as the engineer from Briggs Engineering pointed out to us, each house generates an average 10 car trips per day. Simple math tells you this means 3,300 cars driving in and out of the subdivision every day. This causes for wear and tear on the roads and highways in the area. A higher threat of accidents, and more frustration and stress of current residents. In schools, assuming a low average of two children per household, this means 660 additional children in our schools. Of course this is not the only new subdivision in the Meridian. Do you consider the number of potential students when approving the numerous new subdivisions? Is the school board given a vote and allowed to be part of the planning and zoning process, and although the developers give acreage to the school district, there remains the major problem of paying to build a school, to furnish it and then to continue to pay the personnel and operating expenses to run and maintain the school. The land is the cheapest part of the deal. In core services, finally 330 houses with an average of 4 residents per house will mean 1,320 people added to this community, more stress on police, fire stations, water, sewage, etc. Although this subdivision will be using city water, this additional water has to come Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 70 from somewhere, and can you guarantee this will not stress and drain current wells? In case you approve this subdivision, we think it will probably happen eventually, we specifically would like the following conditions imposed for the area bordering our property. First of all are larger lots as a better buffer between density and acreages. Second would the single level houses. Third is a visual screen of trees and fourth, would be the guarantee of compensation if our wells dry. We know that Meridian wishes to grow in order to keep a prospering economy. However, does it really have to grow at this rate? Do you want your long term goal, your very final outcome to be a town supporting an agricultural community, or a town surrounded by a sea of houses only a few feet apart? Thank you for considering our request. And I did have a couple of comments also. One of them is on the size of the lots on the chart. And I wanted to thank you for having the chart put up where we could see it during the meeting. It really helped. But anyway, they look much bigger than they are because of the easement not really showing on the canal. It goes to the centerline of the canal. And like we live on four acres, that's what we consider it. But if we considered the easements of the drainage, the nine mile creek and the easement of the canal, we really have six acres. They call it two —1.79 acres of waste acres. So you they are really not there. I think that's all. Smith: Ma'am, where about do you live? N. Hanson: Same address. Borup: One question, Mrs. Hanson, you mentioned on the farm ground, do you know what crops are currently being harvested on this farm? N. Hanson: There has been corn that they've grown in years past. Sometimes it's alfalfa. It rotates. They use different crops. They are using it as farmland. It's just sitting fallow. It's not just weeds. Johnson: I'll just make one comment. You asked several questions which are rhetorical — N. Hanson: I know. Some of it's emotional, but — Johnson: I have an answer to one of your questions. You made a comment does the school district get involved in the long range planning and the comprehensive plan, and they are a very active ingredient in that. The current comprehensive plan is outdated. It was done in 1993, that year on the wall up there, and it will be revised soon, but there's a section in that comprehensive plan that is almost totally the work of the school district and it has to do with school naturally. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 71 N. Hanson: Well, I asked it because several times we've come to meetings and the administrator of the schools or the superintendents of the schools had commented he didn't support the subdivision for different ones. And also there are times in the paper when the school districts are saying they won't allow more students to enter the schools. The schools are too crowded and so you know I asked that because sometimes the subdivisions are approved when there's no schools to have the kids. Johnson: Absolutely true, and that's because there's a working relationship between the city and the schools, but we don't have any jurisdiction over the schools, and vice versa and Meridian School District is much more than the city of Meridian as you know. But we do work a lot closer with them than we used to, and we do have a letter from the school district on this application tonight, and it's kind of a standard, but it does talk about just what you said stressing the system and adding additional, etc. etc. We're trying to develop better relationships, and I think we are well on our way of doing that. In the past, they were almost at odds with another. I've been around long enough to remember those days. We're working closely with the schools and doing the best we can. Short of a moratorium, there isn't a whole lot you can do with growth. N. Hanson: Well, we were hoping that you would only allow larger lots at least so that is a little bit slower growth. We were hoping for one to five acres, and I know (inaudible) Johnson: -- I just looked at some of the square footage on those lots, and I know this isn't going to sound good to you, but those are almost double some of the lots that we've worked with on a daily basis, because they are 15-14000 square feet. And you know our R-4 zoning is 8,000 square feet a lot. In other words what I am saying is they could be a lot smaller lots. I know that doesn't make you feel good. N. Hanson: No, we were hoping for one to five acres like I said, but you know. Johnson: Anybody else? M. Hanson: I had contacted Nampa Meridian Irrigation District about the traffic on the canal, and they more or less just told me we don't care, but like the neighbors said, it is a problem. You get these kids up there in Honda cars, the pickups, and they are doing 30 to 40 miles an hour on that canal bank. And one question I do have that maybe Becky can answer to me, when this is all done and you have the vehicle bridge, is there going to be a way for those vehicles to get on the canal right-of-way road off of that bridge? Okay, that's what I was wanting to know. Johnson: And for the record, Becky shook her head no. Anybody else have a final comment? Final I'm hoping for. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 72 (Inaudible — off the microphone) Johnson: Yeah, what happen here is that's our main function is we gather information. That's all typed up. That's why we have the tape, and then that goes into our Findings of Fact if we decide that's what we are going to do tonight, and then all that testimony goes to the city council and those are the people with authority that actually have the ability and the authority to approve or disapprove subdivisions. Our main function here to get all the testimony we can so that we know every issue. And I had a question for you people since you brought it up. Did the Hansons attend this meeting at the Sandman? Were you invited? You called here okay. I just wondered if you had participated in that. Did you people who participate in it? (Inaudible — off the microphone) Prior: I am going to be stickler here, I think if some of these folks want to talk just to save Angel, our person who has to transcribe this, I would appreciate it if you folks come up to the mike and identify yourself. B. Fritts: I just had a question — Prior: Sir, would you just identify yourself for me too. B. Fritts: It was just the — the thing that you said there was the 14 or 15000 square foot that these were bigger lots along that area, well that isn't the fact if you take the 50 feet by the 80, that's 4,000 taken out. That's not even close. So you take off 4,000 square feet, and you just have regular 10,000 square foot lot. It isn't a monstrous lot at all. There's six acres taken out just by that canal alone. Their density is over three. Johnson: Yeah, I think you are right. B. Fritts: Yeah, so there's nothing big about those lots at all. Do they get to shoot ducks or something, is that why it's out there in the middle of the canal or what's the deal? Johnson: Okay, anyway, good point. Anybody else got any good points? At this point I will close the public hearing. You have some comments? I'm sorry. Bowcutt: One to answer Mr. Harris' question. If that stub street, you know, I indicated it's a permanent turn around so it is not necessary that that street continue to the south into his parcels, but the highway district, if you've got a five acre parcel adjoining you, they always assume that eventually it will redevelop. As far as sewer and water service, we are required by the city to take it to our perimeter, so that it may continue on through p Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 73 any other parcels, so at no charge to Mr. Harris, sewer and water will be extended to the stub streets. Secondly as far as your comprehensive plan is concerned, the majority of this property I think is mixed residential on your map. So that could be apartments or townhouses or something along that line more in line with what the first plan was. What we have here is far more compatible and far superior to what was proposed originally. We do have the reality that we do have larger residential parcels in the areas. They are not farms, but they are more like hobby residential farm type parcels where they have cattle. They have horses. Maybe they do raise a little hay on a few acres, and so do have to be cognizant of that. And like the single family residential development I do feel that we can be compatible. That is 100 feet easement on that Ridenbaugh Canal, 50 feet on each side from the centerline. The access road for the Ridenbaugh Canal is on the west side of the canal, so the 50 feet on our side is just additional easement for canal maintenance purposes. In the past the irrigation district has been concerned about their access road primarily and has allow some encroachment on to the easement with a license agreement, and that's what we intend to do here. We did it in Los Alimitos where they had a 40 foot easement total for I believe the Hunter Lateral. We did a 30 foot separate lot for the Hunter Lateral and then we did 5 foot easements on each side and allowed the fence to encroach five feet on each side. That is what we are proposing to do here. We had wanted originally to take it just to the centerline, but staff said they would like the integral part of the easement to be within a separate lot, and I'd like to reserve my further comments on that when I run these conditions. I've been out to this property, I've snapped pictures. I believe the Hanson's house. This is a picture of the Hanson's house here. They have a one level home. And a shop right to the side of their home. I have an aria[ photo that is to scale. And in measuring from the northeast corner of the Hanson's house to the centerline of the Ridenbaugh Canal is approximately 200 to 210 feet. The Hansons as you can see by this map — this is the Hanson's house here. This is the Hanson's house right here, this is their shop or garage. I measured off the corner of the house to the canal as you can see the black line is the canal. It's approximately 200 feet from the edge, would be the northeast quarter of his home to the canal. This property here is the Frittses, I believe. Aren't you just on the west side of the Hanson's? Okay, this is theirs. And do you have a barn or shop to your north and your house is toward Victory? Mr. Fritts has indicated that he is on the west boundary of the Hansons. And this is Mr. Fritts' house right here, and that house is — he's about 250 from his house, not from the shop and that is to the canal and then obviously our homes will be further beyond that because we will have our setback. No home can encroach within the easement. The irrigation district will allow fencing and landscaping, but they do not allow the dwellings. So I estimate that the closest house will be approximately 220 feet from our boundary, and we are willing to plant some type of conifer, evergreens, along this perimeter of this canal here where the Hansons, Fritts live. Mr. Goldsmith said I'll be willing to do that, and we won't put in something that's this high, we'll go with something that's more mature so that they grow quickly and try to create some type of a buffer. We want to be Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 74 a good neighbor. We understand this area is changing. You have to understand this is near the Eagle interchange and this is a hustle bustle area that when sewer and water was brought out there a few years ago with the St. Luke's project, and then what's happening south of the interstate, this area has become prime for development. As you well know one and five acre lots are not practical when central services are available, and your own comprehensive plan discourages that, and basically categorizes that as urban sprawl that should not be allowed when services are not available and when services are available we need to follow this comprehensive plan. Lastly, I think Mrs. Hanson said something about the frontages. Just to clarify that for her, on 90 degree turns in cul-de-sacs we are allowed to reduce our frontages. They can go as small 40 feet. That's why you see the deviation, so I just needed to explain myself. On the straight aways we must maintain an 80 foot frontage. They've been a great bunch of people to work with, and they've been very nice. I have not ran across neighbors this pleasant for a long time. Most of the people in Meridian are pretty pleasant. Boise, that's another story. That's it. Johnson: Anybody have one last comment? B. Fritts: I don't care if I'm 250 or 300 feet. We want our privacy. We don't want two story houses, and that's it. I don't care what it is. Someone has got to come to my house and see what I got. It's just not right. So, that's where I'm at. That's what we're asking for. That's all we want. Johnson: Okay, are we finished? I will close the public hearing. Smith: Mr. Chairman, I would like to make a motion that we direct the city attorney to prepare Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law on this item. MacCoy: Second. Johnson: I have a motion and a second to have the city attorney prepare Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. All in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. ITEM NO. 17: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR THOUSAND SPRINGS SUB. BY FARWEST DEVELOPERS AND MARTY GOLDSMITH — NORTH OF VICTORY AND WEST OF EAGLE ROAD. Johnson: I will now open the public hearing. You may incorporate all prior testimony if that's your desire. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 75 BECKY BOWCUTT BRIGGS ENGINEERING WAS SWORN THE CITY ATTORNEY. Bowcutt: Yes, sir. Yes, I'd like to incorporate my comments made in the previous on the annexation. I want to hit the points in staff's comments which I think need explanation or discussion. One there was a question whether the developer intends to turn the system over, the pressurized irrigation system over to the Nampa Meridian Irrigation District. Yes, the developer does intend to design the system to Nampa Meridian standards and turn the system over to them. That is the intent if the district will accept the system. The property currently has water rights with New York Irrigation District, and we must transfer those rights to Nampa Meridian. I have done this before on two other projects, and Nampa Meridian Irrigation District facilitated transfer of the water rights. We have already sent a letter in reference to the District and we did receive a letter in reply. So, that is our intent as far as the pressurized irrigation. Staff indicates that we must have a second source, either a well or tapping into domestic water. We have not determined what our second sourcing will be. We will run the numbers and look at those alternatives. One of the things that hampers us is if we tie into domestic water as a second source, we must pay a hook up fee for every I believe 5,400 and some odd square feet. That's the equivalent to one residential hook up fee. So for every 5,400 square feet of common area, I got to pay $704.00, which I would like to go on the record, that doesn't make developers want to set aside common areas for their residents because they see that as a penalty. So we will be looking at alternatives such as a very shallow well or something like that or we may have to go domestic. I don't want to make a commitment at this time. As far as the Nampa Meridian Irrigation District easement, staff has indicated they want that to be a separate lot. We're not opposed to it being in a separate lot. But we would prefer with Nampa Meridian Irrigation District's approval of course to put the necessary required easement area as a separate lot, and then put the easement on our lots that are on that perimeter, or the remainder, excuse me, the remainder of that easement. I don't think this will cause a problem. We've done it other projects. This worked quite well. Why should the home owner pay taxes on that additional easement, land in the easement, when it can be utilized by the home owner. If it's not absolutely necessary for proper maintenance of the irrigation facility, and that's pretty much our opinion, and it has worked well in the past. Secondly the legal description for the annexation, there is a discrepancy between Sherbrooke's and Thousand Springs, and I'd like to assure the staff that we have somebody working on that and it's a glitch in the centerline of the canal. We had two records of surveys we were dealing with from two other engineering firms, and there was a little bust in where that centerline is located on the Ridenbaugh and we are fixing that. The vehicular bridge, we already discussed that. It will be constructed when we get over to that phase right there, that particular area. It will be platted when those lots that adjoin it are platted, and at that time it will be constructed. In staffs report, staff indicated that we must bond, at least it implied that I bond, for the ped bridges with the city. I'd like to go on the record that we are already trust funding doing cash bonds with Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 76 the highway district, and that money hasn't come back to us. I mean it's like a trust fund. So there is a dual — there's kind of the city saying give us a bond, the highway district says write us out a check. We need to figure who is going to hold the monies. The highway district thinks they are. And that's what they put in their report. Also staffs report indicated where that ped bridge, the second ped bridge on the north, would be located. I believe they said lot 40 and 41 or something, highway district's current staff reports says between lot 33 and lot 34, block one. And each ped bridge will be trust funded for at the time we reach that particular area for platting. Secondly, I've already made my arguments on the five foot offset sidewalks. And why we believe that what we are proposing will work and will be beneficial to these home owners and be a benefit to the city. One issue I do want to bring up is the issue of calculation of frontage on corner lots. Your ordinance requires that the lot frontage be 80 feet, however, when we have an instance where we are on a corner lot, this one, prime example, here's a corner lot. It's 10,292 square feet, 115 deep, 88 feet wide. What transpired here about a year ago is the staff began saying that we could only calculate the frontage by minusing half of the radius. No where in the zoning ordinance does it say that is how you calculate frontage, and I questioned the staff on and they said well, how else would you do it. And I said no other jurisdiction calculates it that. And they said how do they do it. I said well, one, if the intent is the lot be a specific width, and the intent of frontage to maintain certain widths on the lot so you don't have somebody come in with a 50 foot wide lot and it's 150 feet deep, that's the intent, and we are meeting that intent. So what these other cities do is they come in to the lot 20 feet. That's the setback. Then they measure the lot. That's the width of the lot. But that's how the city of Meridian does it. So this particular lot which is 88 feet. The city will say okay, you have to put an arrow saying it can't face the long side. It must face the short side, so if I face the house here on Zim Way versus Kirkham Street, then these people end up with an extremely shallow rear yard. And they end up with this large side yard, which is not typically a functional yard. I've discussed it until I'm blue in the face, and I am still puzzled why nobody has resolved this issue, and it doesn't make a lot of sense to us. We've had an instance where a home buyer -refused to buy lot. They said, no, I'm not going to face my house that way. I want to face it on the long side so I have a good backyard. But this lot, I've either got to make it wider or tell these people you've got to face your house this way, and I just don't feel that the code and ordinance states that so I question justification. It puzzles me. If the city wants to do it that way, then I recommend they adopt an ordinance that says that is how it's calculated. If that's inappropriate then they need to come up with another system, but using discretion (End of Tape) Bowcutt: ...as they see fit is difficult for us to work with. These gray areas need to be clarified. Staff also wants an extension of E. Three Bars Drive into the project; no problem with that to facilitate the water connection. Staff asked about additional easement line that we had running through here. That was just a computer glitch. It Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 77 duplicated the easement line, and it kind of ran through those lots diagonally in a strange fashion; oversight on my part. Any questions? Johnson: Anybody have any questions? Borup: I don't know if I have a question, I would just like to speak in support of Becky's comments on the corner lots. I see no logic to it either. I understand keeping lot sizes, and I think the interpretation in the past has definitely done that. It looks to me like the city's getting a dictating private enterprise in how a person sites a house on the site. I do have a question for staff if they had any comments on the — and I like the specs of the offset sidewalk and especially with the landscaping. I think it definitely does make a nice street scape. I wonder if staff had any concerns on driveway lengths or possible driveway lengths. Freckleton: Commissioner Borup, I made the comment about the right-of-way width. They proposed a 50 foot wide right-of-way with the encroachment of the sidewalk into the private lots. It's always been our opinion that public street improvement should be contained within the public street, and in Mr. Goldsmith's previous subdivisions he had wider right-of-ways with the public street improvements contained within the right-of- way. And the square footages that are shown on the lots, those of course, are including two feet of sidewalk. So we don't feel that — Borup: But it's not counting the four feet of sod out front between the sidewalk and the street though. Freckleton: True. Borup: So, did you answer my question? Apparently driveway lengths was not a concern, I mean if the driveways out there, people just walk around the car and I guess there's not going to be that many. I do have a question for Becky again then. Did you finish, Bruce? Freckleton: Yes. Borup: If the right-of-way was increased, I mean it would be a matter of moving the property pins over two feet each way. It's not going to change the road paved area. It's not going to change the locations of the sidewalks. Is there any additional expense to the developer by doing that? Bowcutt: Well, what staff indicated was increase your right-of-way widths from 50 to 57. So that would be 3 % additional feet of right-of-way on each side for a total of 7 additional feet. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 78 Borup: Which would put the property pin essentially a foot and a half from the sidewalk. Did I calculated that right? Which is what it normally is now. Bowcutt: What I dislike about it is that just decreases the depth of the lot. I like to give people as large a lot as you can as far as your depth. Too many lots in this valley are 100 feet deep and people just don't have a good back yard for their kids to play in and stuff, and I try to give them a bigger back yard. When you are talking an easement versus a right-of-way. I guess what is the cost of the public of that two foot overlap. Nothing. It's under jurisdiction of the highway district. They have agreed to it in their staff report. They find it acceptable. They gave us the option, go either way. We have received compliments on the subdivisions we've done with this easement concept, this two overlap from the highway district that it looks nice. Borup: You have done the same thing in other subdivisions? Bowcutt: Yes. The Legend Subdivision, Edgeview Estates. Borup: And they all have 20 foot setbacks? Bowcutt: And Bayhill Springs. Yes, 20 foot front setback, 4 foot offset sidewalk, but those sidewalks are Boise sidewalks so they are 4 feet not 5. But we have overlap. Borup: So we need a 52 foot right-of-way to equal what you did there. Bowcutt: 54 yeah. (Inaudible) Borup: If we're talking 4 foot compared to 5 foot sidewalk. But wait a minute you are proposing 4 foot. Bowcutt: These are five foot sidewalks. Borup: Four foot was the landscaping. Bowcutt: Yes, the city sidewalks are five feet. Borup: So a 52 foot easement would accomplish the same that you are doing in Boise. Because we've got an extra foot of sidewalk on each side of the street. Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 79 Bowcutt: The point is when you require the developer to increase his right-of-way width and it affects the depth of the lots, he is more reluctant to just say oh forget, we'll just put the sidewalk up at the back of the curb because he loses depth. You know it all adds up. Borup: I agree with that. I know problem of people like the big lots. Bowcutt: As you start going through it starts escalating. Borup: I still got some concern if people park in their driveway and they are sticking out on the sidewalk, and you see that in the older section of Boise. I'm talking the real old. Bowcutt: Where they sat like 15 feet or something, the home sat back. Borup: And you can't get a car in the driveway without encroaching on the sidewalk. And again you are talking about the public wanting the larger lots, and I think they do, but I don't think they are going to want to be crammed on the front either. Johnson: Enough philosophy. Anything else? We'll never get out of here. Can I close the public hearing now? B. Fritts: I just want to make sure that everything we talked about on 16 will be related to 17. Is that correct? Johnson: We will do that, yes. We'll include all the testimony. NORMA DALE 2785 E. OVERLAND ROAD WAS SWORN BY THE CITY ATTORNEY. Dale: I just have one question regarding the pedestrian bridge if you want to put that back up. Right here. My property is right here, the farm and this is (inaudible) farm. This pedestrian bridge would go across the Ridenbaugh Canal. Did I understand that correctly? Was there a pedestrian bridge that went across the Ridenbaugh Canal there? Bowcutt: When the Griffin property is developed at that time that pedestrian bridge would be constructed. At this time we have to provide a pathway to the canal that would just stop and then we have to give the highway district half of the cost of the pedestrian bridge for future construction. Dale: All right. That's answers my question. I thought it might be a nuisance to the farming if that was a pedestrian bridge. Thank you. � €t Planning and Zoning Commission May 12, 1998 Page 80 Johnson: Thank you. Anyone else? Any other comments? I will close the public hearing at this time. Smith: Mr. Chairman, I would like to make a motion that we table this item until our June 9th meeting. Nelson: Second. Johnson: Motion to table item number 17 until our next scheduled meeting. All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. Borup: I think we deferred an item last month meeting. I would be in favor of deferring it again. It's not on the agenda, but I believe the meetings from last month reflected that. Johnson: Yeah, it was Shari's proposal for — Borup: We had a couple of ordinances that still needed to (inaudible) Johnson: Make a motion please. Borup: I'd move that we defer the proposed amendments to the zoning and subdivision that remain be deferred again to June 9th or a special session. MacCoy: 1 second that. Johnson: All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. Borup: Were you wanting to finish that tonight Shari? Stiles: No, we said on three of the items. We do need to get that — I mean one thing we really need to do is change the application deadline because we're having a real hard time getting comments back from ACHD with the time frame that we have right now, and Ada County has requested that — Johnson: We're just not getting them. 1914IF-bul SUSAN S.

The applicant will construct a vehicular bridge across the Ridenbaugh Canal connecting Thousand Springs Subdivision with Los Alamitos Subdivision. The bridge will be constructed when the area which includes the bridge is platted. Ada County Highway District has requested a two (2) pedestrian bridges between Lots 33/34, Block 1 and Lot 46, Block 17. The applicant is required to provide 50% of the cost for said bridges. A trust fund deposit with the District will be required prior to signature on the final plat, which includes the lots with the bridges. Nampa and Meridian Irrigation District approval will be required to construct the pedestrian bridges. This bridge requirement. must be contingent on NMID) cooperation. The pedestrian bridge between Lot 33/34, Block 1 will not be constructed by the developer of Thousand Springs Subdivision since the north parcel will be subject to 50% of the cost. Thousand Springs will provide the their 50% of the cost in a trust fiord. The bridge improvements will be made when the phase which includes the bridge is platted. 1.1.

The applicant has proposed 5 -foot sidewalks with a 4 -foot offset from back of curb. The minimal overlap of the sidewalk into the platted lot docs not create a problem. The intent of the detached sidewalk is to provide an aesthetically pleasing boulevard effect with trees lining the roadways. ACHD has accepted a 50 -foot right-of-way with a portion of the 950204-c itymor-hr MAY 08 '98 12:00 PAGE.03 MRY-08-1998 11:56 FROM TO 8874813 P.04 t BRIGGS ENGINEERING, INC. 1111 s, Orchard, suite 600 • Boise, Idaho 83705 • (208) 344-9700 FAX # (208) 345-2950 detached sidewalks on a easement in other developments. To increase the right-of-way to 57 -feet reduces the lot depths and creates unnecessary excessive roadway right-of-way widths. The applicant prefers the 50 -foot right-of-ways with a partial easement to compensate for sidewalk overlap. The enhanced amenity of detached sidewalks justifies the deviation from the normal situation where sidewalks are contained within the right-of-way. 13. All landscape buffers adjacent to Victory and Eagle Road and common areas will be owned and maintained by the Homeowner's Association. The developer will install irrigation facilities and landscaping within the proposed common lots. 14. The applicant would like to discuss the requirements of house orientation arrows, The Meridian Zoning Ordinance has no provisions for calculating frontage on comer lots by including line length plus one-half the chamfer length. The applicant believes this requirement should not be applicable. 15. The applicant agrees to revise the preliminary plat to reflect extensions of E. Three Bars Drive to S. Indian Creek Place to facilitate better water alignment. 16. Temporary turnarounds will be provided when phasing the project where a street extends further than one lot in depth. 17. The revised preliminary plat will reflect the landscape easements as separate lots. 13. The revised preliminary plat will be stamped by a Professional Land Surveyor, 19. The City Council will review the variance request for block length and piping Ridenbaugh Canal. 20- A common lot will be provided through Lot 23, Block 1 for future connection to the well lot. 21. The rear lot line of Lots 55 and 56, Block 5 will be modified to match the rear lot line of Lot 9, Block 9 of Los Alamitos Subdivision No, 3. 22, The additional easement line traversing the lots adjacent to the Ridenbaugh Canal is an error. The line is a offset duplication of the NMID easement line and will be removed on the revised preliminary plat. Sincerely, BRIGGS ENGINEEF NG, INC. Becky L.

MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. ITEM NO. 6: REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR PROPOSED THOUSAND SPRINGS SUBDIVISION BY FARWEST DEVELOPERS AND MARTY GOLDSMITH — NORTH OF VICTORY AND WEST OF EAGLE. Corrie: Council there was a request made to the developer to include lot number 58 in block 4 part of the school park site. I guess Becky would you like to address that and tell us what the developer has approved? Bowcutt: Mayor Corrie contacted me and asked me to go back to the developer and see if he would consider the elimination of this lot 58 located right here along the future elementary site. I did meet with the developer, discussed it with him, urged him to go ahead and eliminate that lot because it would improve the access to the school lot which from what I'm hearing the feedback from the school district, that's what's going to happen with that parcel. He has agreed to eliminate lot 58 as a residential lot and merge that lot into the school site which would increase that acreage. I believe it's lot 58, block 4 so we'd like to include that in the record. The other issue I discussed with Mayor Corrie after Council adopted the Findings, two weeks ago the Hanson's meet with me outside and were questioning the lot numbers that were entered into part of the record as part of the Findings. I believe it said lot 21 through lot 14, block 14. Their question to me was is there any way to change that. They would like to see lots 22 through 16 and their reasoning there was their home sits back further on their parcel. And they though the affect of lot 22 was far greater than the affects of the lots further to the south and they said would you please talk to the developer and we'd be willing to forego lot 13 and — I think it 13 and 14. Corrie: 14, 15. Bowcutt: 14 and 15, excuse me. Forego lot 14 and 15 if you would take it clear up to lot 22,which is the last lot that backs up to them. Their home sits right in this vicinity here and their concern is (Inaudible) 14 and 15 are of no consequence but lot 22 we feel is problematic. As you turn the bend then these lots (inaudible) backing up and facing the northern direction. Mayor Corrie said he did receive a letter from them. They reference some different lots. I think they went to 24, but I believe they were going off the old plan, which we renumbered when we made the staffs changes. Meridian City Council September 1, 1998 Page 12 Rountree: So those numbers again are 16-22. Bowcutt: 16-22, which the difference would be seven lots versus eight. That was their request. We'd be willing to just accept seven because those are the lots that most adversely affect us with a two story and our privacy. Rountree: And that will be a note on the plat? Bowcutt: Yes. The previous plat that we agreed to one stories, we put on each lot. Because we felt if it was placed in the notes, the builder may not recognize that but if it's in bold letters on each lots, it's easily recognizable by your building department. Anderson: Becky I have a question. Is there a home on that little piece of ground down there too? Bowcutt: No. (Inaudible). The next home over is west. Anderson: And could 1 get you to mark the right numbers on this map for me so I know which ones you are talking about, because those are kind of hard to read. Bowcutt: (Inaudible). Anderson: Okay, thank you. Corrie: Becky I have a question on the lot 58 that we talked about is that going to be deeded to the City of Meridian and then if the school doesn't use it then we do it as a park site; is that correct? Bowcutt: 1 believe the city preference is that we deed it to the city and then if the school district needs it, then they get it. Corrie: If they don't want it then it goes as a park. Bowcutt: Correct. Then the city will retain ownership. The other issue that 1 wasn't clear on is the 50 foot right-of-ways with the 5 foot offset sidewalks. We discussed that in length. When I came away from the meeting, my understanding was that I was to get with staff and come up with some solution that would work so we didn't end up with our pins under the sidewalk. I did submit information to Gary. An example of one plat where it did work well. Gary and Shari looked at it and their comment was what if we just go with a 20 foot setback from the back of the sidewalk and simplify it which therefore would mean a 22 foot front yard setback and we agreed to that and our pins will all be offset outside of the concrete so I believe that is resolved. But I'd like that to be in the council's motion because when we bring the plans in say 60 days from now Meridian City Council September 1, 1998 Page 13 people forget what was said and even though it's in the public record, if it's not in the motion then Gary's staff says, no you've got to go with standard right-of-ways or 57 foot right-of-ways, so we'd like to be in the motion. In closing I'd just like to remention I met with Nampa Meridian Irrigation District board today on the pedestrian bridge issues. They are granting us a license agreement for our vehicular bridge. The bridge for our sewer water crossings. They indicated to me that they will not agree to the pedestrian bridges until such time as the City of Meridian sits down with them and discusses the issue of liability. And they said that it's been discussed in previous meetings. They thought that you guys had come to some type of agreement with them, but they have not seen anything in writing and they will not give us a license agreement for the pedestrian crossings until the city agrees to some provisions that they've set forth. I guess what we'll end up doing is trust funding with Ada County Highway District if that cant' be accomplished and the monies will be there for those bridges until such time as you guys can come to an agreement. I just wanted to pass that on since I had the opportunity. Corrie: Other questions from the Council? Rountree: Question to Gary, as it relates to the 22 foot setback that does resolve your issue with the pin placement. Smith: Mayor and Council, Councilman Rountree, yeah I think it would. I just wanted to be sure that we didn't have a problem with vehicles parking in the driveway and extending out into the sidewalk area, and as Becky has indicated to me they've been doing this in our city to the east of us and they haven't had a problem with the utility trench situation in that front yard easement and that was another concern that I had. Sc it's apparently working elsewhere. Thank you. Anderson: Is that block 4 where those lots are? Rountree: Lot 58. Bowcutt: (Inaudible) Corrie: Any further discussion? Rountree: Mr. Mayor I move that we approve the preliminary plat for Thousand Springs Subdivision conditioned on staff comments that the plat indicate a 22 foot setback as described by the applicant. That the plat indicate that lots 16-22 of block 14 be identified as single level building lots and that the plat indicate that lot 58, block 4 will now be part of the potential or future school or parks area. Meridian City Council September 1, 1998 Page 14 Bentley: Second. Corrie: Do you want to discuss that deed it to the city, Charlie? However you want to work it. I'll take your motion as stated. Rountree: Did it get second? Bentley: I'll withdraw my second. Rountree: I'll just make a motion to amend my motion. Bentley: Second. Corrie: We have a motion made by Mr. Rountree and second by Mr. Bentley the motion as stated and also as amended. Any further discussion? Anderson: I have one more question. This bridge that goes across for the vehicle traffic if an agreement doesn't get reached between us and Nampa Meridian, is there enough room for school kids to get by on that without going out into the traffic to make it to this school property? Bowcutt: Yes, they have sidewalks on both sides. Anderson: Okay. Bowcutt: Standard ACRD. Anderson: All right, thank you. Corrie: Any further discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor of the motion say aye. MOTION CARRIED: All ayes. Corrie: I want to thank Becky and the developer for graciously giving that block 4 number 58. Thank you Becky.

Fencing is to be in place prior to applying for building permits. 7. Plat the Ridenbaugh Canal easement as a common lot to be owned and maintained by the Thunder Springs Homeowners Association. Rear lot lines along the Ridenbaugh Canal shall be set at the existing easement line, unless an encroachment agreement is granted by the Nampa -Meridian Irrigation District. A minimum of five feet from the top of bank (as determined by the City Engineer) shall be allowed for the common lot when fencing. 8. The annexation description provided is not contiguous with the adjacent Sherbrook Hollows Subdivision and should follow the centerline of the Ridenbaugh Canal adjacent to the property north of Sherbrook Hollows Subdivision. Applicant shall submit a revised annexation perimeter description for the proposed site. The legal description shall be prepared by a Registered Land Surveyor, Licensed by the State of Idaho, and shall conform to all the provisions of the City of Meridian Resolution No. 158.

Dedications to the Public: The development provides a portion of a school/park site (3.85 acres), a fire station lot (1.41 acres) and a city well lot (32 acres). 7. Statement of Development Features: The proposed development consists of (330) single family residential lots, (24) common lots, (1) school/park lot, (1) fire station lot and (1) well lot on 121.227 acres. The subject properly adjoins Los Alamitos Subdivision and the proposed Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision. The proposed density of 2.72 dwellings per acre is consistent with other approved developments in the area. Three stub streets have been provided for future connection to adjoining properties. S. Molly's Way along the south boundary of northeast section of the property and E. Sheep Creek Street adjacent to the east boundary within the southern portion of the parcel. A vehicular bridge is proposed over the Ridenbaugh Canal to make a connection to Los Alamitos Subdivision. The bridge location creates a connection within the interior of Section 20, which would promote access to the future Meridian School District High School site and the future park/elementary school site. 9 8 0204\statement-com A micro -path connection has been provided along the west boundary to connect to the proposed pedestrian bridge over the Ridenbaugh Canal, which connects to the proposed Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision. Two collector streets have been provided within the project, which feed traffic to Victory Road and Eagle Road. Common lots have been located within the project to facilitate storm drainage retention. The development provides for a future fire station by allocating a 1.41 acre lot adjoining Eagle Road. A city well lot has been provided based on information from City staff that a site is preferred along the Eagle Road corridor. A 3.85 acre school/park lot has been provided as a portion of a future City park or elementary school site. The lot matches the 2.4 acres set aside in Los Alamitos and the 4.0 acres in the G. L. Voigt parcel. A neighborhood meeting was held on the development plan on March 9, 1998. All property owners within 300 feet of the subject property were invited to attend. Six residents were in attendance and I received a couple of phone calls and two letters with comments. The concerns and comments by the neighbors have been taken into consideration. 1. The Eagle Road entrance has been aligned with the existing Girdner Lane as recommended by the owner of Sutherland Farm. 2. The future fire station lot was relocated from the southeast corner of the parcel to the northeast corner as requested by Gordon Harris. 3. The developer agrees to include the Right To Farm Statute on the final plat to protect existing agricultural uses in the area as requested by the trustee of the Morganeer Family Trust. 4. A landscape buffer along the east -side of the parcel near Victory Road has been provided. The developer agrees to construct a berm, landscaping, and a fence (not dog-eared) adjacent to the Glick property as requested by Mrs. Glick. 5. The developer intends to duplicate the 5' wrought iron fencing along the Ridenbaugh Canal. The developer will install trees along the west boundary adjacent to the Fritts property as a privacy buffer, which was requested by Mr. and Mrs. Fritts. The developer intends to extend sewer from Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision or Los Alamitos Subdivision to service the subject property. Preliminary sewer analysis confirms that either trunk line can provide adequate depth to service the development. Water will be extended from Los Alamitos into the subject property. A traffic study was submitted to ACHD with the Highlands Ranch project. ACHD reviewed Thousand Springs Subdivision in draft form as a pre -application review. ACHD indicated an 9 80204\statement-co m addendum to the original traffic study should be submitted. Pat Dobie has prepared the addendum and will submit to ACHD on April 20, 1998. Preliminary phase lines have been delineated, however phases may change. 9 80204\statement-com I / i Pon p r --- o WO + p t ;, dB �, � ° $\, s i y� a, •ow,�� °; L q o I i e: 9< Y �4'�zb ��j 4 a 6 t a. s's. ♦'`a Jy: a B��/�, r` $�\ / —Z I 21 � C y � �A• ' � / s\ � �s b � s.t "; s.' b' � i sV .\, t+ \ Y - sor �;` h fI • \ ; " * a.
