CITY CLERK OFFICE
The property is located a ½ mile south of Overland Road on the east side of Eagle Road,
Meridian.
The owner of record of the subject property is Sutherland Farm, Inc.
Applicant is owner of record.
The subject property is currently zoned R-U-T and R-1. There is, however, an
application for annexation and zoning to R-4 and C-G before the City Council which are
defined within the City of Meridian Zoning and Development Ordinance Section 11-7-2.
The applicant requests the conditional use permit for development of 308 building lots
consisting of 260 single family detached lots, 32 single-family attached lots, 11
office/multiple family lots, and five commercial lots, and 30 lots consisting of a 4-acre
park/pond, a 30' wide pathway adjacent to the Canal, alleys, an irrigation lot, tot lots and
landscaping lots. The requested zoning designations within the City of Meridian Zoning
and Development Ordinance require a conditional use permit be obtained for most uses
including those requested by the Applicant. (Meridian City Zoning and Development
Ordinance, Section 11-8-1).
The Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission recognizes that the proposed application
is in compliance with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan.
The use proposed which is the subject of this will, in fact, constitute a conditional use as
determined by City policy.
Concerns expressed in the annexation application also apply to this request.
