Several months ago the Meridian City Council restructed the Boundary of the Meridian Urban Service planning Area by eliminating that portion South of the Ten Mile drain and adding these densities to other areas. The future use of this general area south of Ten Mile drain east of Ten Mile Road North of Overland Road has been left in limbo due to this restriction. There was discussion. (Tape on File - City Clerk's Office) Due to the property not being in the proposed Meridian Urban Service Planning Area, and the problems involved using lift stations for sewage the Council will not consider Annexation. Hellhake requested a statement to Ada County indicating the approval of the concept. Hellhake said that he has been tabled by the County Commissioners pendiñg a clarification of the Urban Service Planning Area Boundary. Hel1hake said that the covenants that will be placed on the property will stipulate that all houses are to placed at specific locations on the five acre tracts to enable future subdivision of these tracts after appropriate application, study, and approval by the City of Meridian. Hellhake stated that right now they are only asking for a density of 21 units for the 120 acre tract. Hellhake also said that the developer will install dry line sewers sufficient to handle present and potential future residential growth on the 120 acre site. Councilman Brewer said that he feels this is a "nice size project that makes sense and has a practical value." ,--------,-----~_}:!~!Jh_~ket~ld _the Council that he felt that there is a "market for a good five acre deveiopment~I'-- ---~--~O=-,~----'-----'---'-~--~----~-~~--------- ~--- ----'~-----,-"-- Brewer said that annexation of this property may be a long time in comming, and it would benefit everyone to find a way to use the property now, especially if someone wants to develop it.
