Development Application H-2019-0132 FP
Project Name VERADO NO. 4 SUBDIVISION
Project Location
Southeast corner of the intersection of North Locust Grove Road and
East Ustick Road, west of SH-55 milepost 38.90
Project Description
Final Plat to construct a subdivision consisting of 74 building lots and 9
common lots
Applicant DevCo Development LLC
The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) reviewed the referenced final plat application and has the
following comments:
1. This project does not abut the State Highway system.
2. The City is reminded that the SH-55 (Eagle Road) corridor is already congested. This project will
increase the number of vehicle trips in the corridor. As the City continues to add additional trips to the
corridor through development, the congestion will worsen until the roadway system is ultimately
overloaded and fails. ITD has no current funding assigned to mitigate traffic congestion in the SH-55
(Eagle Road) corridor in this area.
3. Idaho Code 40-1910 does not allow advertising within the right-of-way of any State highway.
4. The Idaho Administrative Procedure Act (IDAPA) 39.03.60 governs advertising along the State
Highway system. The applicant may contact Justin Pond, Program Manager for ITD’s Headquarters
Right-of-Way Section at (208) 334-8832 for more information.
