Moe: Second.
Rohm: It's been moved and seconded to continue AZ 05-067 and CUP 05-060 to the
regularly scheduled meeting of March 2nd, 2006. All those in favor say aye. Opposed
same sign? Motion carried. Thank you.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Rohm: All right. Now, before we open our first Public Hearing for testimony, I would
like to make a few comments. The general procedure for opening and taking testimony
on an item is we, first of all, ask the staff for their report. The staff is there to present the
application's project in terms of how it affects the Comprehensive Plan and ordinance.
They tell us if they are in compliance or if there is things that need to be changed, but,
basically, their position is neutral. After the staff has made their presentation, then, we
give the applicant an opportunity to present the project from their perspective. That's,
basically, their sales pitch. After the applicant has made their presentation, then, it is,
then, open to the public for your testimony. At that time the testimony that we receive
as it relates to those specific projects -- as you make your presentation it's best that
you're able to speak to either Comprehensive Plan or ordinance as you speak to the
project. And not necessarily do you have to use either the Comp Plan or ordinance, but
it's best if your comments tie back to that, because that gives us something to validate
testimony. The second thing is many times a group of people will have a single
spokesman, like a president of a homeowners association, that will speak to a project.
And if that's the case, what I will do is I will ask for a show of hands for those people that
that individual is speaking for and, then, unless that -- a spokesman has omitted
something that you feel is pertinent, then, you're actually relinquishing your time to that
spokesman and they are given extra time at the mike.
Item 5:
Continued Public Hearing from January 19, 2006: AZ 05-060 Request
for Annexation and Zoning of 4.92 acres from RUT to C-G zone for Ada
County Highway District Ustick Road Property by the Ada County
Highway District - 3595 East Ustick Road:
Rohm: So, with that being said, I would like to open the Public Hearing -- continued
Public Hearing from January 19th, 2006, for AZ 05-060, relating to the Ada County
Highway District Ustick Road property and begin with the staff report.
Guenther: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. This is an
annexation request only at this time to a -- from Ada County RUT district to a general
commercial C-G district. The property site is located approximately a quarter mile to the
east of Ustick-Eagle Road intersection and this one will relate to several other projects.
There are two other projects in the area tonight. With this annexation the -- ACHD owns
the property, but they will be doing a future split of the property in order to sell the
remainder that they do not wish to continue. This area is primarily residential at this
time, but this portion here south of the site has been annexed into the City of Meridian
