I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Request to modify note#17 on the Southridge Subdivision No. 1 plat that prohibits direct lot or parcel
access to S. Spanish Fork Way to allow an exception for Lot 2,Block 2.
II. SUMMARY OF REPORT
A. Applicant:
Becky Yzaguirre,The Land Group—462 E. Shore Dr., Ste. 100,Eagle, ID 83616
B. Owner:
West Ada School District(WASD)— 1303 E. Central Dr.,Meridian, ID 83642
C. Representative:
Becky Yzaguirre,The Land Group—462 E. Shore Dr., Ste. 100,Eagle, ID 83616
III. STAFF ANALYSIS
The Applicant proposes to amend plat note#17 on the recorded plat for Southridge Subdivision No. 1,
which prohibits direct lot or parcel access to S. Spanish Fork Way, to allow an exception for Lot 2,
Block 2 to have two(2) accesses (see Section V.A).
The Applicant states that in order to develop this site with an elementary school, West Ada School
District (WASD) needs two (2) direct accesses off S. Spanish Fork Way, a collector street, to
accommodate an ingress-egress for school buses and parent pick-up/drop-off lanes, as shown on the
site plan in Section V.B.Modification to the note as proposed will allow the school the needed accesses
while still restricting access to the collector street for other lots in the subdivision.
The final plat approved by the City Council in 2008,did not include a note prohibiting direct lot access
Page 1
to S. Spanish Fork Way, a collector street.Note#16 on that plat stated, "Direct lot access to S. Linder
Road and W.Overland Road is prohibited."Prior to ACHD signing the plat,they required the Applicant
to modify the note to add a restriction prohibiting direct lot access to S. Spanish Fork Way.
Even though the City didn't require the restriction, because it is on the plat, the Ada County Surveyor
requested City Council, along with ACHD, approve the proposed modification prior to removal of the
note from the plat. Once approved by both agencies,the Ada County Surveyor and Professional Land
Surveyor(Jim Washburn)will work together to process an Affidavit of Correction to modify the plat
note. The City Attorney determined the appropriate process for City Council to approve the
modification is through a vacation application so that there would be notice, a hearing and a record of
the City's decision.
A Traffic Impact Study was submitted to ACHD for review with the request for modification to the
plat note. Although ACHD policy does not allow the proposed accesses, Staff recommended a
modification of policy to allow only one driveway onto Spanish Fork Way 400'north of the roundabout
and for the plat note to read, "Direct lot or parcel access onto W. Overland Rd., S. Linder Rd., and S.
Spanish Fork Way is prohibited except for one driveway for direct lot access onto S. Spanish Fork Way
for Lot 2, Block 2." Only the northern access for school buses and staff was approved due to the
following reasons: 1)there wasn't sufficient justification in the TIS for two driveways; 2)the southern
driveway is proposed to be located on the departing leg of the roundabout and drivers are typically
accelerating as they exit and are not prepared to stop; 3) the southern driveway doesn't meet District
policy for right-in/right-out only driveways to be offset at least 220' from a signalized intersection;and
4)the southern driveway doesn't meet District policy for the driveway to be offset 245' from the north
driveway (see ACHD Staff Report for more information). See the site plan in Section V.B for the
approved access driveway.
IV. DECISION
A. Staff:
Based on ACHD's action on this request, Staff recommends Council approval of the modification
to note #17 as follows: "Direct lot or parcel access onto W. Overland Rd., S. Linder Rd., and S.
Spanish Fork Way is prohibited except for one driveway for direct lot access onto S. Spanish Fork
Way for Lot 2,Block 2."
