Engineering&Surveying detached single-family homes on 7.58 acres located north of the intersection of
Permitting Ustick Road and 121h Drive.
Ada County Commissioners
Diana Lachiondo,First District Ada County is supportive of the application due to the proximity of the site to
Patrick Malloy,Second District existing public services and due to its compatibility with the Future Land Use Map of
Kendra Kenyon, Third District the Meridian Comprehensive Plan, as adopted by Ada County, which designates the
site as Medium Density Residential, a designation which is intended for single-family
residential development at densities of three to eight dwelling units per acre.
The layout of the subdivision also complies with many of the goals of the Meridian
Comprehensive Plan, as adopted by Ada County. The proposed common areas,which
will include a playground, benches and pet area, are compatible with Goal 3.07.02A
which encourages usable opens space to be incorporated into residential subdivisions.
The road connections proposed to the north, south, east and west are supported by
Goal 3.03.03C, which requires street connections between subdivisions at regular
intervals to enhance connectivity and improve traffic flow, and the pedestrian
pathways which are proposed to the west and northeast are compatible with Goal
3.07.02C, which requires pedestrian access in all new development to link
subdivisions together to promote neighborhood connectivity.
Thank you for this opportunity to provide feedback.
