Plan policies apply to this application:
.
Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action I - Require that development projects have
planned for the provision of all public services.
When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the
suqject property. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands proposed
to be annexed in the following manner:
. Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at the developer's
expense.
The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Rural Fire District.
Once annexed the lands will be under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire
Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural Fire
Department.
The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada County Sheriff's Office.
Once annexed the lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD),
The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the
Ada County Highway District (ACHD). This service will not change.
The suqject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District #2. This service
will not change.
The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service
will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer no revenue loss as a
result of the subject annexation.
.
.
.
.
.
Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by the Meridian Building Department. the
Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian Wastewater
Department, the Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary
Services Company.

incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels.
The applicant is proposing a residential zone. Staff finds that the existing residential properties to
the south, north, east and west are compatible with the proposed development.
.

(low-, medium-, and high-density single family, multi-family, townhouses, duplexes,
apartments, condominiums, etc.) for the purpose of providing the City with a range of
affordable housing opportunities.

1. Multi-use Pathway Connection: The applicant has proposed to continue the pedestrian
pathway on Lot 11, Block 1 to connect to the public multi-use pathway located along
Ten Mile Creek. A requirement to construct this pathway shall be included in the
Development Agreement.
2. Lot 9. Block 1: Lot 9, Block 1 is a common open space lot which is to be donated to
the Meridian Parks Department. Although this lot is only 225::1:0 square feet, it will
facilitate the efficient routing of the multi-use pathway located along Ten Mile Creek.

property) for open space in a lot, which contains a storm water retention area and a

PAGE 6
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF FEBRUARY 16,2006
pedestrian connection to Fuller Park to the south and staff is supportive of the design.
There is no minimum landscaped open space required by ordinance, because the property
in less than five acres in size.
2. No Parking: No on-street parking shall be allowed along Lots 1 and 18, Block 1,
adjacent to the landscape island. The street shall be signed as "No Parking" per the
Meridian Fire Department's comments.
3. Cul~de-Sac Variance: Due the shape of the parcel and the inability to cOlli1ect to any stub
streets due to the pattern of existing development surrounding the property, N. Manship
Place exceeds the maximum cul~de-sac length allowed by the Unified Development
Code. The applicant has submitted a variance application that will be considered by City
Council. Due to the fact that the adjoining properties have all developed without
additional stub streets, staff supports the variance request.
4. Minimum House Size: The R-4 zone has a minimum house of 1,400 square feet and all
homes within the proposed subdivision shall meet this requirement.
5. Pressure In'Üration: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems be
supplied by a year-round source of water (MCC 12-13~8.3). The applicant should be
required to utilize any existing surface or well water for the primary source. If a surface
or well source is not available, a single-point connection to the culinary water system
shall be required. If a single-point connection is utilized, the developer will be
responsible for the payment of assessments for the common areas prior to signature on
the final plat by the City Engineer. An underground, pressurized irrigation system should
be installed to all landscape areas per the approved specifications and in accordance with
UDC 11-3A-15 and MCC 9-1-28.
6. Fencing: The applicant has not submitted a detailed fencing plan (on the landscape plan
dated December 21, 2005) with the preliminary plat application for the subdivision. Any

Dear Planners:
The Meridian School District has experienced phenomenal student growth the last ten
years. The high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools throughout the district
are operating over capacity,
Approval ofthe Buckeye Place Subdivision will have an impact on school enrollments at
Chaparral Elementary. Meridian Middle and Meridian High School.
We can predict that these homes, when completed, will house five (5) elementary aged
children, four (4) middle school aged children, and four (4) senior high aged students, ,
Additional students will further compound the current overcrowded situation. Residents
cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school, as it may be necessary to bus
students to other schools across the district.

Findings for Consideration
1.
Stub Streets
District policy 7203.5.1 states that the street design in a proposed development shall cause no undue
hardship to adjoining property. An adequate and convenient access to adjoining property for use in
future development may be required. If a street ends at the development boundary, it shall meet the
requirements of sub section 7205, "non-continuous streets."
District policy 7205.5 states that stub streets will be required to provide intra-neighborhood circulation
or to provide access to adjoining properties.
. The applicant is proposing to extend Manship Drive in to the site from the north property line.
Staff is supportive of the applicant's proposal.
. The applicant has proposed to not provide a stub street to the surrounding parcels due to the
fact that the surrounding area is built out. Staff is supportive of the applicant's proposal.
2.
Internal Streets
District policy 7204.4.2 states, "Developments with any buildable lot that is less that 1-acre in size will
typically provide streets having a minimum pavement width of 32-feet with curb, gutter and sidewalks.
The total street width shall be 36-feet from back-of-curb to back-of-curb. Variations of this width may
be allowed, depending on traffic volumes forecast to be generated by the development. Concrete
sidewalks shall be a minimum of 5-feet in width unless they are separated from the curb 5-feet or
more in which case the sidewalk shall be a minimum of 4-feet in width.
. The applicant is proposing to construct the internal streets as one half of a 36-foot street
section with rolled curb, gutter and an attached concrete sidewalk within 50-feet of right-of-
way. This street section meets District policy and should be approved with this application.
3.
Tu rnarou nds
District policy 7205.2.1 requires turnarounds to be constructed to provide a minimum turning radius of
45-feet. The applicant should also be required to provide a minimum of a 29-foot street section on
either side of any proposed center islands within the turnarounds. The medians should be
constructed a minimum of 4-feet wide to total a minimum of a 1 OO-square foot area.
. The applicant is proposing to terminate Manship Place with a cul-de-sac turnaround without a
center island. The applicant should construct the turnaround to provide a minimum turning
radius of 45-feet.
4.
Islands
District policy 7202.7 and 7207.5 require islands to be constructed a minimum of 4-feet wide with a
minimum area of 1 DO-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The roadway on either side
of the traffic island should maintain a minimum of a 21-foot street section. District policy also requires
any proposed landscape islands/medians within the public right-of-way dedicated by this plat should
be owned and maintained by a homeowners association. Notes of this should be required on the
final plat. The design should be reviewed and approved by ACHD's Development staff.
. The applicant is proposing to construct a center island with the right-of-way of Manship Place
where the new roadway wíll connect into the existing roadway. The applicant should construct
the island to be a minimum of 100-square feet and should maintain a minimum of a 21-foot
street section on either side of the island. Any proposed landscape islands/medians within the
public right~of-way dedicated by this plat should be owned and maintained by a homeowners
association. Notes of this should be required on the final plat.

RE:
Land Use Change Application - Buckeye Place Subdivision
Please note the District now re uires three 3 sets of lans
Dear Mr. Harris:
Enclosed please find a Land Use Change Application for your use to file with the Irrigation
District for its review on the above-referenced development. If this development is under a
"rush" to be finalized, I would recommend that you submit a cashier's check, money order or
cash as payment of the fees in order to speed the process up. If you submit a company or
personal check, it must clear the bank before processing the application.
Should this development be planning a pressure urban irrigation system that will be owned,
operated and maintained by the Irrigation District, I strongly urge you to coordinate with John P.
Anderson, Water Superintendent for the Irrigation District, concerning the installation of the
pressure system. Enclosed is a questionnaire that you must fill out and return in order to initiate
the process of contractual agreements between the owner or developer and the Irrigation
District for the ownership, operation and maintenance of the pressure urban irrigation system.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to call on me at the District's
office, or John P. Anderson, at the District's shop.
Sincerely,

3 My name is Mark Glines and I live at 1267 N. Saw Creek Way. The rear of my properly abuts the
4 proposed Buckeye Place Subdivision.
5 1 ask the commission to not approve this plat as presented. This tract has been a perennial wetland that
6 both col1.tains rainwater I'Wl off and provides resting and fcçding habitat for water fowl. ThrotlghoUt tho
7 year, ducks and geese use this tract Some are part oia local flock that appear to return to Fuller Park
8 Pond for the night. Others appear to be migrating flocks that stay for a day and move on. As much of the
9 ]oçal part of the flyway is being oonswned by development, maintaining a portion of this tract as
10 wah:rfowl habitat would be beneficial [0 the local and migrd.ting flocks. The proposed t:atc.h basin is
11 very small. Enlarging it to inc]udc two or three more lots al the somh çnd of the tract would provide for
12 this need. The applicant could reapply to develop some or all oCthe additional lots after a few years with
13 a requirement that he demoJiStrate thaI the catch basin is of adequate size and that the loss of habitat
14 would not b~ detrimental to the local and migtating flooks of water fowl.
I S As J have lived at this location through six. winters, it has been my observation that this tract has more
16 use by water fowl than many ofllie othettraots in this part of Meridian. Before Blackstone, Coral Creek
17 and CastJehrook Subdivisions were bwlt. it was rare to see the waterfowl in Those tractS. My suggestion
] 8 is that ll1is is due to tbis tract's propensity to hold water and the resulting sc:1e,ùon of grasses thaL grow
19 in it. The water fowl appesr to have a. great 3ppetìte for the grasses that grow on this tract
20 I am also concerned that if the catch basin is a]lowed to be this small, runoff will regularly o~erflow it
2] into Ten Milt: Creek. This regular overflow would be a violation of the Cle3J1 Water Act of J 977. Since
22 the Treasure Valley has recently reached the MeuoJX»litan Statistical Area threshold as Boise City-
23 Narupa, the Clean Walt:r Act is to bt: fully imple::mented. J have been informed that Boise City-}.¡ampa

J operate under a Phase I pennjt program. I understand that a Phase II "emit is expected to be issued this
2 summer for Meridian, As it appears that test .boles have not been dug to measure water absorption
3 capabilities, approval oftms plat without any testing is a concern. I ask the planning commiss.ion 10
4 require further srudy of this plat and catCh basin so as to compl)l' with the Phase rr pennit.
5 The Rod's Parkside Creek Subdivisions' stonn water flows to a catch basin of the Dry Extended
6 RelftnJion Pond t)pe between Saw Creek Place and Ten Mile Creek on property maintained by Fuller
7 }>ark. \ jnfnrtunate}y, since the water table is so high in Ù1Ís1ocation, it has staJ1ding water in it for much
8 of the year, It has wetland vegetation that sprung up the rust season after tbe area wE1.9landscaped. It is a
9 very large volwne catch basin, yet any enduring rainStonn causes runoff to back up and overflow this
] 0 catch basin. It is not Wlcommon for Saw Creek Place to flood onto ùle sidcwallQ¡ anù ~ven higher.
11 This overflow Hows directly mto Ten Mile Creek without any settling time at the catch basin. This
12 overflow into Ten Mile eree1c would not be allowed Wlder today's regulations.
1:3 Buckeye Place will need to be connected to the new sewer main on the oilier side of Ten Mile Creek. I
14 am told by Public Works that this COMe~t is planned to by done by connecting to the new sewer Jine
15 extension from the liftstatiol1 at SawCccck Place to Û1e new T~ Mile Creek trunk, As this new sewer
]6 jine is not scheduled un1illate summer of2006, a rush to plat approval at this time is not needed,
