o Request for a Preliminary Plat for 272 Single Family Building Lots and 16 Other
Lots on 77.9 Acres in a Proposed R-8 Zone by Capital Development Corp. (File
No. PP-O1-025).
• Request for Annexation and Zoning of 77.9 Acres to a Proposed R-8 Zone by
Capital Development Corp. (File No. AZ-O1-027).
We have reviewed this submittal and offer the following comments, as conditions ofthe applicant.
These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion ofthe
Meridian Clty Council:
APPLICATIONS SUMMARY
The applicant, Capital Development Corporation, is proposing to annex and subdivide an
undeveloped, 77.9-acre parcel of land on the east side of N. Linder Road, immediately north of a
future Meridian middle school site. The applicant isproposing an R-8 zone with a net density of 4.05
d.u./acre (3.49 gross density). The proposed subdivision meets all minimum dimensional standazds
of the R-8 zone with the exception of block length. A sepazate Variance application has been
submitted to City Council for W. White Sands and W. Great Basin (Block 8), whose lengths exceed
1,000 feet. The parcel's south boundary is equivalent to the mid-section line of T4N, Rl W, Section
36 and the White Drain also courses its southern boundary.
Staff is recommending the P&Z Commission continue both public hearings so Staff has the
opportunity to review a revised Preliminary Plat which addresses our recommendations below.
LOCATION & SURROUNDING USES
The subject property is located on the east side of N. Linder Road, between McMillan and Ustick
Roads. The pazcel's north boundary is approximately'/< mile south of McMillan and its south
boundary lies on the half mile line. The property is sunounded on all four sides by land still
within Ada County's jurisdiction.
The following uses sun-ound the subject property:

North -Rural residential and agricultural uses, zoned RUT (County).
South -Agricultural uses, zoned RUT (County); 40-acre parcel with Linder Road frontage is
owned by the Joint School District No. 2 and designated as a future middle school.
East- Rural residential and agricultural uses, zoned RUT (County); proposed Cedar Springs
Subdivision is contiguous to the southeast.
West -Rural residential and agricultural uses, zoned RUT (County); future office uses within
Bridgetower Subdivision are contiguous to the northwest across N. Linder Road.
OWNER OF RECORD
The property owners of record aze J. Ramon Yorgason and Marilyn Yorgason and they have
provided notarized consent for submission of these applications.
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-1 S-I1, General Standards Applicable to Zoning Amendments, both the
P&Z Commission and Council are required "to review the particular facts and circumstances of
each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the following standards and shall find adequate
evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning amendment. "
77ae following is the list of standards found in 11-1 S-Il and analysis by staff.•
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
Staff finds that the Comprehensive Plan's Generalized Land Use Map designates the
subject property as "Single Family Residential"; therefore, the requested zoning
designation, R-8, is harmonious with adopted Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map.
The R-8 is also in conformance with the draft Comprehensive Plan Land use Map
recommended for approval by the P&Z Commission, which shows this azea as
Medium Density Residential.
B. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed in a
fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
The recent annexation and PUD approval of Bridgetower Subdivision, contiguous to
Baldwin Park across Linder Road, will create more urban uses in this area upon
build-out. Bridgetower was rezoned to R-4. The subject property also lies within the
service area of the White Drain trunk, which is scheduled for completion sometime
this summer. The City Council has slated this area as a priority growth area. There
have been no recent street widenings and none are scheduled in ACHD's Five Year
Work Program.

C. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the essential
character of the same area;
Based upon the existing and proposed Comprehensive Plans, the intended character.
of this area is primarily urban residential, along with urban amenities such as the
middle school, sidewalks and neighborhood office services. The existing character of
this area is rural residential and agricultural. The nearest existing urban residential
uses are approximately a half mile away. The subdivision will need to provide
fencing adjacent to any existing agricultural uses. The increase in vehicular resident
and construction traffic expected with subdivisions will impact the immediate area.
Staff, therefore, finds t t the requested uses would generally be harmonious with the
existing and intended~haracter of the general vicinity, so long as appropriate
mitigation measures are followed to limit impacts on adjacent agricultural and rural
residential uses.
D. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
The Commission and Council shall rely on public testimony to determine whether
the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazardous to the neighboring residential uses.
Staff fmds that requested uses will not be hazardous to the existing or future
neighboring uses.
E. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such
as highways, streets; police and £re protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for the establishment of
proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide adequately any of such
services;
This property lies witl#in the North Meridian Area Plan (NMAP) currently being
facilitated by Wardle & Associates. One of the instigating factors for the NMAP was
coordination of adequate services. Staff finds that roadway improvements will be
required to handle the ~ditional traffic generated by this development. ACRD and
the Applicant are w rking together to determine the extent of the required
improvements. All otlAer public services and facilities appear to be adequate to
service this property.
F. Will not create exceBsive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the
AZ-01-027 Baldwin Park.doc

community;
Staff finds that this development will not cause excessive additional requirements at
public cost. W e also find that the annexation and zoning alone will not be detrimental
to the community's economic welfare.
G. Will the proposed u~es not involve uses, activities, processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons,
property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic,
noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
Staff fmds that none f the proposed uses for Baldwin Park will involve uses,
activities, processes, m terials, equipment or conditions that will be detrimental to
the general welfare of ersons or property in the area.
H. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
The Applicant's traffic mpact study finds that the proposed subdivision will generate
an estimated 2,600 add tional vehicle trips per day (0 existing). The initial phases of
Baldwin Park, until adjcent properties are developed, will take 100% of ingress and'
egress trips off W. Monument Drive -the only direct access to N. Linder Road.
ACRD is requiring the applicant to construct a left tum lane in Linder and Monument
Drive will be designed as a collector. Both of these improvements should improve
vehicular approaches and lessen the impact of the level and flow of traffic on the
surrounding streets. Staff fmds that there will be an impact on existing Linder Road
traffic and also the project will contribute to fixture improvements (e.g. sidewalk, turn
lane, impact fees, etc.).
I. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature
of major importance;) and
As long as the White rain is adequately protected, Staff finds that no natural or
scenic features of manor importance will be lost or damaged by approving the
annexation and re-zone.
J. (s the proposed zon$i~ amendment in the best interest of the City of Meridian.
Ord. 592,11-17-19 "
Staff recommends th ~'&Z Commission and Council, based upon public testimony
and other informati ru presented to the record, determine if the annexation and

The Fire Department has sub >tted written cormnents concerning the need for a secondary
access to the neighborhood ~ the northwest comer of the subdivision. The Ada County
Highway District is requiring the applicant to add a stub street to the north and two (2) stub
streets to the south. If the applicant modifies the plat as such, the Fire Department's access
concerns should be adequate>~ addressed.

lines and submit a revised Preliminary Plat at least ten (10) days prior to the next P&Z
hearing.
4. ACHD's draft report requires the Applicant to provide one (1) additional stub street to the
north and two additional stubs to the south. Staff supports this recommendation. The Fire
Department also supports an ditional stub street to the north that will serve the northwest
azea of Blocks 5 and 6. The Applicant shall state the locations of these three (3) new stub
streets at the P&Z Commission hearing for discussion and shall submit a revised Preliminary
Plat reflecting these new stub streets at least ten (10) days prior to the next P&Z heazing.
While no written comment has' een received, Staffunderstandsthe Joint School District No.
2 is opposed to a stub street i o the future middle school site to the south. The Applicant
shall work with the Police an Fire Departments to deterrnine emergency vehicle access
needs to the middle school fro the north. If the Police and Fire Departments concur that no
vehiculaz access from the no is necessary, Applicant shall provide apedestrian/bicycle
connection across the White D ain to access the school so future Baldwin Park students aze
not forced onto Linder Road.
5. A Variance application accompanied the Preliminary Plat application for excessive block
lengths of White Sands and Great Basin Drives. Additionally, there aze three (3) other blocks
which exceed the 1,000-foot npaximum length -Blocks 5,10 and 14. Staff has consistently
stated that we do not support micropaths in lieu of vehiculaz connections to break-up block
lengths. Staff does not recommend approval of Variance applications for block lengths
except where clear V ariance fmdings can be met and/or existing adj acent development forces
the excessive length. Baldwin; Park subdivision does not have pre-existing limitations and,
conversely, will be establish~g the pattern of connectivity for more than 300 acres of
adjacent undeveloped land si ce it is the first significant development in Section 36 (4N,
1 W).
Therefore, in order to avoid the need for the Variance applications and to provide adequate
connectivity both within and i utside the subdivision, Staff recommends the following:
Provide the three (3) new boundary stub streets mentioned above, as required by
ACHD;
Provide a connection lpetween W. Yosemite Drive on the west side of Lot 12, Block
14 and W. Yosemite ~ve on the east side of Lot 12, Block 14;
Provide a connection between W. Cresent Street on the west side ofLot 17, Block 10
and W. Cresent Street on the east side of Lot 17, Block 10;
Provide a third stub treet to the north property line somewhere between Lot 29,
Block 5 and Lot 49, ock 5. There is an existing landlocked parcel abutting Baldwin
Park in this location at should be provided a future access point.

Deaz Planners:
The Meridian School District has experienced phenomenal student growth the last ten
yeazs. The high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools throughout the district
aze operating over capacity.
Approval of Baldwin Park Subdivision will have a significant impact on school
enrollments at Andrus Elementary Eaale Middle. and Eaele Hislt School.
We can predict that these homes, when completed, will house sixty-eight (68) elementary
aged children, fifty-seven (57) middle school aged children, and fifty-two (52) senior high
aged students. Additional students will further compound the current overcrowded
situation. Residents cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school as it maybe
necessary to bus students to other schools across the district.
School capacity is addressed in Idaho Code 67-6508. The Meridian School District is
currently operating beyond capacity. Future development will continue to have an impact
on the district's capacity. If you have any questions, please contact me at 888-6701.
Sincerely,
