APPLICATION SUMMARY & LOCATION
The applicant, Paramount Development Inc., has applied for Final Plat approval of 47 single-
family residential building lots and 2 common lots on 17.53 acres of land for Paramount
Subdivision No.5. The zoning designation for the proposed subdivision is R-8 (Medium Density
Residential). This phase of the subdivision will have a gross density of 2.68 d,u./acre and a net
density of 4.1 0 d.u./acre.
Paramount Subdivision No.5 is located on the south side of Chinden Blvd., approximately Y,
mile west ofN. Meridian, in the N. Y, of Section 25, T.4N., R.l W.
The common area lots within the subdivision consist oflandscape lots. The pressurized irrigation
system within this development is to be owned and maintained by the Paramount Homeowners
Association.
A Conditional Use Permit (Planned Development) was approved for this subdivision that
allowed for a reduction in the minimum lot size from 6,500 s.f. to 5,500 s.f.; front setbacks
reduced from 15' for living areas to 10'; street side setbacks reduced from 20' to 10'; and a
reduction in street frontage from 65' to 50'.
The submitted final plat substantially complies with the approved preliminary plat. The final plat
shows six lots less than was approved on the preliminary plat; however, staff has no objection to
this change due to the increase in lot sizes.
