2.1 Site Specific Conditions of Approval:
2.1.1 A street light plan will need to be included in the final plat and/or building permit application.
Street light plan requirements are listed in section 6-7 of the City's Design Standards. A copy of
the standards can be found at http://www.meridiancity.org/public_works.aspx?id=272
2.1.2 No detailed utility plan was provided to show location of proposed mains. An offsite utility plan
will be required showing the sewer being brought down McDermott from the Oaks.
2.1.3 System capacity is available to serve this development with two 12-inch water main
connections. No detailed utility plan was provided to show location of mains and hydrants on
site. Plans showing these features will need to be reviewed by engineering when available to
ensure fire flow meets needs.
2.1.4 The provision of water and sewer service to this development will require significant off-site
improvements to bring utilities to and through the site, which will be the responsibility of the
developer. The site is also subject to reimbursement fees, and upgrade expenses associated
with the Oaks Lift Station, as well as other reimbursement fees associated with the water
system.
2.1.5 Staff has discussed with the applicant the possibility of reviewing/approving, and allow a portion
of the utility infrastructure to be constructed prior to the final determination and approval of
the Annexation and CUP applications. In order to move forward with review/approval and
construction of the utility infrastructure plans, the West Ada School District and The City of
Meridian will need to enter into a formal agreement to include at a minimum the following:
a. The West Ada School District assumes all risk (financial and otherwise) for proceeding with
infrastructure design review and construction ahead of the formal approval of the pending
application for Annexation and CUP from the City of Meridian. Once the mainlines are
installed, and approved, they will become the property of the City of Meridian, regardless of
the ultimate outcome of the Annexation and CUP applications.
b. New utility mainline infrastructure will only be allowed within the existing right-of-way of
Ustick and McDermott Roads per the approved Meridian Water and Wastewater Master
Plans. Your plans will need to be revised to only show the stated mainlines. If and when the
project gains full approval from the Meridian City Council, the remainder of the
infrastructure serving the proposed school can be reviewed for approval and construction.
c. Upon cursory review of the proposed infrastructure design within Ustick and McDermott
Roads, it does not appear that any of the mainlines are being planned above and beyond
what is contemplated in the approved Meridian Water and Wastewater Master
Plans. Therefore they would not be eligible for reimbursement under Meridian City Code
(MCC) 8-6-5.
d. Acknowledgement of the West Ada School District’s responsibilities for paying the sanitary
sewer lift station upgrade costs, and sanitary sewer lift station reimbursement costs
pursuant to the attached Summary of Agreement and Reimbursement Agreement.
