ENGINEERS • SURVEYORS • PLANNERS Regional Office 250 South Beechwood Avenue, Suite 201 Boise, ID 83709-0944 RE: Stokesberry Subdivision No.2 - Appeal 208-376-7330 Fax: 208-323-9336 www.jub.com On behalf of Properties West Inc. and the landowners within Stokesberry Subdivision, please accept this appeal application of the staff decision detailed in a letter dated July 24, 2007 from Anna Canning to Glenn Walker, The aforementioned decision only addresses one lot, but it will create a precedent that affects four lots within the development. We are therefore requesting that the decision of the Director to apply a 20' rear setback to all lots within Stokesberry Subdivision No. 2 be overturned and that Lots 10, 11, 1'2� and 13 be allowed to develop with buildings as depicted on the final plat of Stokesberry Subdivision No. 2. Properties West developed the Stokesberry Subdivision and subsequently sold the lots within the project to various individuals and companies to develop with office buildings. The lots were sold with the understanding that building envelopes were designated on the plat, represented by dashed lines on each lot. As you can see from the staff decision referenced above, this concept was not fully realized within the record and the staff feels that they have no option to approve a site plan with anything less than a 20' rear setback. While we recognize that the staff analysis is technically correct, and while we appreciate the predicament they find themselves in, we believe that there are good and compelling reasons for issuing the last four building permits within this project utilizing a 10' rear setback. Specifically: ➢ The adopted Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law specifically reference the Building Site Plan drawing (attached) that graphically depicts a building envelope for each lot within the project. It is clear from this drawing that the development concept for the project has always been to treat the development as an integrated collection of buildings on a large parcel of land. Lots were created due to the requirements of the zoning ordinance and the need to sell the ground to individual buyers, but the above drawing clearly shows the overall development concept, a fact borne out by the issuance of at least three building permits with 10' rear setbacks. ➢ Building permits have been issued on other lots with the ten foot setback. While this point alone is not a good enough reason to issues others with the same error, it does verify that the record is unclear at best. Further, it demonstrates that the 10' setback �i C&U-BI Engineers Surveyors Planners Appeal Narrative Stokesberry Subdivision No.2 July 31, 2007 Page 2 is at least somewhat supported by the record, is perfectly reasonable within the context of the project, and does not create a public nuisance nor a harmful precedent for the city. Nothing is gained by the city, but much is lost by the applicant with this action. The lots were sold and bought in good faith by both parties based upon the recorded plat and the Building Site Plan. Further, the appellant understood that previous permits had been issued and was under the understandable impression that the entire project could be developed in accordance with the Building Site Plan as referenced in the Findings of Fact. Denying building permits at this stage has already delayed one project and will certainly kill the project if it is upheld. Furthermore, it will likely result in litigation between the buyers and the seller, causing financial harm to both parties. If this were of benefit to the City or its citizens it might be justifiable, but this action will result in no substantial benefit to anyone, it only harms the landowners and the appellant. The concept of a rear setback has little or no meaning in the context of this project. All lots are clustered around an internal shared parking area and do not have traditional public road frontage with front, rear, and side setbacks. The individual site plans work well within the context of the project and create a cohesive and attractive development as designed. The mandatory 20' rear setback will likely be changed anyway. The staff has indicated that a 20' setback in the L-0 zone is excessive given the purpose of the zone and intends to bring forward an ordinance amendment to modify the setback requirement. Unfortunately this process will take approximately six months and is of no real benefit to the landowners who are ready to go now and will likely lose their financing if forced to wait that long for a resolution to this issue. Summary The Council clearly has the authority to offer relief in this case. Although the record on this issue is somewhat muddled, the mere fact that the Findings of Fact reference the Building Site Plan is justification enough to allow 10' rear setback and would be defensible in court. Moreover, it is extremely unlikely that the issue would ever go to court because it does not harm anyone, to the contrary it results in a much nicer and more cohesive development. Based on all the above, we respectfully request that the Council uphold the appeal and allow the owners to develop the project as it was originally envisioned. Sincerely, J-U-B ENGINEERS, INC.
