Locust Grove Road Meridian, Idaho 83642 Re: Staff Level Approval MAZ02-001 2150 South Locust Grove Road RECEIVED JAN 2 2 200 City of Meridi.an City Clerk Office Annexation/rezone Facts and Findings: The Ada County Highway District (ACHD) staff has received the above referenced application requesting annexation and rezone approval to rezone 1.14-acres fi-om R-1 to R-4. The 1.14-acre site is located at 2150 South Locust Grove Road between Overland Road and Victory Road. This development is estimated to generate 40 additional vehicle trips per day (10 existing) based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual. The application and site plan stamped and received by the City of Meridian on January 4, 2002, and submitted to the District on January 8, 2002, has been reviewed by the ACHD Planning and Development staff and conforms to applicable District standards/policy, or can be made to conform with the change(s) to the plan described in the requirements stated below. This is a staff level approval and will not be heard by the ACHD Commission unless thc site plan is changed in such a manner as to not conform to District standards/policy or an appeal of the Planning and Development staff decision is submitted as described within the Standard Requirements outlined below. On January 14, 2002, thc District Planning and Development staff inspected this site and evaluated the transportation system in the vicinity. On January 18, 2002, the staffmet as the District's Technical Review Committee and reviewed the impacts of this proposed development on the District's transportation system. The results of that analysis constitute the following Facts and Findings and recommended Site Specific Requirements. S :~D STECI-BWORKINGhMAZ02-001 .sla.doc Page 1 For the purposes of estimating daily trip generation and assessing impact fees for this project, the proposed use of this development has been classified as Single-family. (Per the ITE Manual) The impact fee rate from the fee tables for this use is based on the impact fee ordinance in effect at this time. Note: This rate is provided for informational purposes only and shall not be construed as an impact fee rate certification. The impact fee will be assessed at the time of plans acceptance by District staff, and shall be based on the fee tables and provisions of the District's Impact Fee Ordinance in effect at that time. Development patterns in the surrounding area are predominately residential. Based on development patterns in this area and the resulting traffic generation, staff anticipates that the transportation system will be adequate to accommodate additional traffic generated by this pmposed development at accepted levels of service with out modification to Locust Grove Road. The additional traffic generated by this development will have minimal detrimental impact on the transportation system. Special Recommendations to City of Meridian: 1. Pursuant to the Clean Air lawsuit settlement agreement private roads/driveways approved with any development should be paved their entire length, and notification given to DEQ. If the rezone is approved and the District receives a development proposal, the District intends to provide the following requirements, in addition to any additional requirements that may apply upon District review of future development, to the City of Meridian: Site Specific Requirements: Dedicate 45-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Locust Grove Road abutting the parcel by means of recordation of a final subdivision plat or execution of a warranty deed prior to issuance of a building permit (or other required permits), whichever occurs first.

The owner will be compensated for all right-of-way dedicated as an addition to existing fight- of-way fi'om available impact fee revenues in this benefit zone, if the owner submits a letter of application to the impact fee administrator prior to breaking ground, in accordance with ACHD Ordinance #195.
