A. Findings of Fact
1. Description of Application: This is a preliminary plat application for 2 multi-family lots and 6
commercial lots on 29.7 acres and a conditional use permit application for a 396 unit multi-family
development within the site on 15.94 acres.
The City of Meridian's Future Land Use Map designates this area as Mixed Use Regional.

West General Retail and Service Commercial District C-G
3. Site History: ACHD previously reviewed a small eastern portion of this site as part of Rackham
Subdivision in July 2019. The requirements of this staff report for that small portion are
consistent with those of the prior action.
4. Adjacent Development: The following developments are pending or underway in the vicinity of
the site:
1
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
• Rackham Subdivision, a 20-lot mixed use subdivision with hotel, office buildings, restaurants
and residential uses on 52 acres located directly west of the site and approved by ACHD on
July 18, 2019.

Site Location- Eagle View Landing Phase 2 (Rackham East Subdivision) located east of Rackham Subdivision
(Original 52 acres)
5. Transit: Transit services are available to serve this site approximately % mile south of the site on
Overland Road via route 29.
6. Pathway Crossings: United States Access Board R304.5.1.2 Shared Use Paths. In shared use
paths, the width of curb ramps runs and blended transitions shall be equal to the width of the shared
use path.
AASHTO's Guidelines for the Development of Bicycle Facilities 5.3.5 Other Intersection
Treatments: The opening of a shared use path at the roadway should be at least the same width
as the shared use path itself. If a curb ramp is provided, the ramp should be the full width of the
path, not including any flared sides if utilized. Detectable warnings should be placed across the full
width of the ramp.
FHWA's "Designing Sidewalks and Trails for Access" (1999) reflected common ADA-related
concepts: Chapter 6, Page 16-6: The width of the ramp should be at least as wide as the average
width of the trail to improve safety for users who will be traveling at various speeds. In addition, the
overall width of the trail should be increased, so the curb ramp can be slightly offset to the side.
The increased width reduces conflict at the intersection by providing more space for users at the
bottom of the ramp.
7. New Center Lane Miles: The proposed development includes 0.0 centerline miles of new public
road.
8. Impact Fees: There will be an impact fee that is assessed and due prior to issuance of any building
permits. The assessed impact fee will be based on the impact fee ordinance that is in effect at that
time. The impact fee assessment will not be released until the civil plans are approved by ACHD.
9. Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)/ Integrated Five Year Work Plan (IFYWP):
• The intersection of Overland Road and Eagle Road is scheduled in the CIP to be widened to
7-lanes on the north and south legs, and 8-lanes on the east and west legs, and
reconstructed/signalized in the future. The design year is listed as 2025 in the IFYWP and the
is listed to be improved between 2031 and 2035.
• Overland Road is listed in the CIP to be widened to 7-lanes from Eagle Road to Cloverdale
Road between 2036 and 2040 and is listed as unfunded.

Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
• The intersection of Cloverdale Road and Overland Road is listed in the CIP to be widened to
7-lanes on the north and south legs and 8 lanes on the east and west legs and signalized
between 2026 and 2030.
10. Roadways to Bikeways Master Plan: ACHD's Roadways to Bikeways Master Plan (BMP) was
adopted by the ACHD Commission in May of 2009 and was update in 2018. The plan seeks to
implement the Planned Bicycle Network to support bicycling as a viable transportation option for
Ada County residents with a wide range of ages and abilities, maintain bicycle routes in a state of
good repair in order to ensure they are consistently available for use, promote awareness of existing
bicycle routes and features and support encouragement programs and to facilitate coordination and
cooperation among local jurisdictions in implementing the Roadways to Bikeways Plan
recommendations.
The BMP identifies Overland Road as Level 2 facilities that will be constructed as part of a future
ACHD project.
B. Traffic Findings for Consideration
1. Trip Generation: This development is estimated to generate 4,626 total additional vehicle trips per
day (114 existing); 432 total additional vehicle trips per hour in the PM peak hour (12 existing),
based on the traffic impact study.
2. Traffic Impact Study
Fehr & Peers prepared a traffic impact study for the proposed Eagle View Landing Phase 2
development. An executive summary of the findings as presented by Fehr& Peers can be found
in Attachment 3. The following executive summary is not the opinion of ACHD staff. ACHD has
reviewed the submitted traffic impact study for consistency with ACHD policies and practices, and
may have additional requirements beyond what is noted in the summary. ACHD Staff comments
on the submitted traffic impact study can be found below under staff comments.

3. Mitigation/Required Improvements
a. Policy:
3
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
Mitigation Proposals: Mitigation recommendations shall be provided within the report. At a
minimum, for each roadway segment and intersection that does not meet the minimum
acceptable level of service planning threshold or v/c ratio, the report must discuss feasible
measures to avoid or reduce the impact to the system. To be considered adequate, measures
should be specific and feasible. Mitigation may also include:
• Revision to the Phasing Plan to coincide with the District's planning Capital Projects.
• Reducing the scope and/or scale of the project.
Alternative Mitigation Measures: 7106.7.3 states that if traditional mitigation measures
such as roadway widening and intersection improvements are infeasible as determined by
ACHD, the TIS may recommend alternative mitigation measures. Alternative mitigation
measures shall demonstrate that impacts from the project will be offset.
• If the impacted roadway segments and/or intersections are programmed as funded in
the Integrated Five Year Work Plan (IFYWP) or the Capital Improvements Plan (CIP);
no alternative mitigation is required.
• If the impacted roadway segments and/or intersections are not programmed in either
the IFYWP or the CIP; the applicant may (i) analyze the shoulder hour and (ii) provide
a safety analysis to determine alternative mitigation requirements.
o If the impacted roadway segments and intersections meet the minimum
acceptable level of service planning thresholds in the shoulder hour the
applicant may suggest feasible alternative mitigation such as: sidewalks, bike
facilities, connectivity, safety improvements, etc. within 1.5 miles of the
proposed development.
o If the shoulder hour planning thresholds are exceeded the applicant may
request to enter into a Development Agreement and pay into the Priority
Corridor Fund an amount determined by the ACHD to offset impacts from the
project.
• Alternative Mitigation may also include:
o Revision to the Phasing Plan to coincide with the District's future Capital
Projects.
o Reducing the scope and/or scale of the project.
Level of Service Planning Thresholds: District Policy 7206.4.1 states that, Level of Service
Planning Thresholds have been established for principal arterials and minor arterials within
ACHD's Capital Improvement Plan and are also listed in section 7106. Unless otherwise
required to provide a Traffic Impact Study under section 7106, a proposed development with
site traffic less than 10% of the existing downstream roadway or intersection peak hour traffic
shall not be required to provide mitigation for a roadway or intersection that currently exceeds
the minimum acceptable level of service planning threshold or V/C ratio.
b. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The study shows that all intersections and roadway
segments operate acceptably, except for the following that are discussed below.
All road segments are projected to meet ACHD's acceptable level of service (LOS) thresholds
for a 5-lanes principal arterial road under all conditions, except for during the PM peak hour for
the segment of Overland Road between Eagle Road and Silverstone Way and Rolling Hill
Drive under the 2023 total traffic conditions.
Overland Road — Eagle Road to Silverstone Way
This segment of Overland Road is listed in the CIP to be widened to 7-lanes between 2026
and 2030, and the site traffic is projected to be approximately 9.6% of the total 2023 traffic on
4
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
the segment. Therefore, staff does not recommend that the applicant be required to widen this
segment consistent with District policy 7106.7.3 Alternative Mitigation Measures, which states,
if an impacted roadway segment or intersection are programmed as funded in the IFYWP, or
the CIP; no mitigation is required; and the District's Level of Service Planning Thresholds
Policy, which states that a proposed development with site traffic less than 10% of the existing
downstream roadway or intersection peak hour traffic shall not be required to provide
mitigation for a roadway or intersection that currently exceeds the minimum acceptable level
of service planning threshold or V/C ratio.
Rolling Hill Drive
The applicant has proposed to vacate Rolling Hill Drive within the site, north of the site's south
property line. The study reports the average daily traffic (ADT) for Rolling Hill Drive is
projected to be 2,500 trips with all phases of the development in 2023, and approximately
1,200 for Phases 1 and 2, which consists of 396 apartment units. The phasing plan is shown
below in the shaded regions.

ACHD does not set level of service thresholds for local roads, however, District Policy states
that the ADT for local roads shall be less than 2,000. Staff does not recommend that Rolling
Hill Drive be reclassified as a collector road or a commercial road to accommodate the traffic
from all phases of the development due to the fact that there are several existing single family
residential homes that will remain on Rolling Hill Drive to the south of the site and staff has
concerns about the significant increase in traffic on an existing local road that will continue to
serve single family homes after the development is completed. Therefore, staff recommends
that the applicant should be restricted to phases 1 and 2 of the development for the 396
apartment units, and not be allowed to construct the offices proposed for phase 3 of the
development until the existing residential homes on Rolling Hill Drive are purchased and the
properties annexed into the City of Meridian with commercial or mixed use zoning. ACHD
may consider reclassifying Rolling Hills Drive as a collector or commercial road at that time.
In addition, staff recommends that Rolling Hill Drive be restricted to right-in/right-out only at
Overland Road, consistent with the findings of the traffic impact study, which are discussed
below.
5
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
Overland Road/Rolling Hill Drive
The study recommends restricting the intersection of Overland Road/Rolling Hill Drive to right-
in/right-out with phase 2 in 2022, or when the site generates 45 PM peak hour trips. The
applicant should be required to restrict the intersection to right-in/right-out only with a 6-inch
raised candles/median with the first phase of the development prior to ACHD's signature on the
first final plat and after the private road, Rackham Way, is completed from Silverstone Way to
the Rolling Hill Drive. The applicant should be required to provide a public access easement
over the private road, Rackham Way.
Rolling Hill Drive aligns with an existing driveway on Overland Road for the Movado Green
Subdivision apartments on the south side of Overland Road. As part of ACHD's action on
Movado Greens Subdivision,ACHD approved this driveway as a temporary full access driveway
and indicated that this driveway could be restricted to right-in/right-out at any time in the future.
The study recommends the construction of a westbound right turn lane on Overland Road at
Rolling Hill Drive in 2023 with phase 3. However, there is not enough existing right-of-way for
the applicant to construct a westbound right-turn lane on Overland Road at Rolling Hill Drive
and it is not typical for ACHD to require a right-turn lane for a 5-lane principal arterial road.
Therefore, staff does not recommend that the applicant be required to construct the
westbound right-turn lane with this development application.
Due to concerns from the residents on Rolling Hill Drive about additional traffic from the
Rackham East Subdivision and the Rackham West Subdivision using Rolling Hill Drive when
Rackham East Subdivision connects to Rolling Hill Drive, and that the daily trips on Rolling Hill
Drive at the full build out of the development will exceed ACHD's thresholds for the ADT on
local roads, the applicant has also proposed to restrict the site's access to Rolling Hill Drive to
emergency access only. This would direct all traffic from Rackham East Subdivision to the
Silverstone Way/Overland Road intersection to access Overland Road. Therefore, prior to the
submittal of any construction plans for the development, the applicant should be required to
submit an updated analysis to staff for the intersection of Silverstone Way/Overland Road for
Phases 1 and 2 under the 2022 conditions, and for the final buildout under the 2023
conditions, and the estimated ADT and peak hour trips on Silverstone Way with Phases 1 and
under the 2022 conditions and all Phases under the 2023 conditions. Staff will evaluate if
restricting the site's access onto Rolling Hill Drive to emergency access only is feasible based
on the updated analysis. If staff finds that restricting Rolling Hill Drive to emergency access
only is acceptable, then no additional improvements are required to Rolling Hill Drive.
Rolling Hill Drive/Private road, Rackham Way
The study shows that a mini-roundabout will operate acceptably at the terminus of Rolling Hill
Drive where it will intersect the private road, Rackham Way. The applicant will be required to
construct a mini-roundabout at the terminus of Rolling Hill Drive, see Finding 3.
Eagle Road/Overland Road
The study shows that the intersection of Eagle Road/Overland Road exceeds ACHD's
acceptable LOS thresholds under the existing and future conditions in the AM and PM peak
hours. The study recommends the following improvements with the associated phase/year:
• Add 1 northbound through lane for a total of 3 northbound through lanes (existing)
• Add 1 northbound right-turn storage lane to separate the right-turn movements from the
through movements (existing)
• Restripe the southbound left-turn lanes to increase the total storage length to 500-feet for
existing and 600-feet for 2021 conditions
• Add 1 westbound right-turn lane for a total of 2 westbound right-turn lanes (existing)
6
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
• Add 1 westbound left-turn lane for a total of 2 westbound left-turn lanes (2023)
However, the intersection is projected to exceed acceptable LOS thresholds in the PM peak
hour under all conditions and the AM peak hour in the 2023 background and 2023 total traffic
conditions even with these improvements. In addition, these improvements are not feasible
as there is not enough existing right-of-way to improve the intersection with additional lanes
and the site traffic at this intersection is projected to be 4.8% of the 2023 total traffic
conditions. This intersection is also listed in the CIP to be widened to 7-lanes on the north and
south legs and 8-lanes on the east and west legs with a design year of 2025 in the IFYWP
and improved between 2031 and 2035. Therefore, staff does not recommend that the
recommended mitigation be constructed with this development application consistent with the
District's Alternative Mitigation Measures Policy and the District's Level of Service Planning
Thresholds Policy stated above.
Overland Road/Silverstone Way
The intersection of Overland Road/Silverstone Way exceeds ACHD LOS thresholds under the
existing conditions, and thus the future build out conditions. The study recommends the
following mitigation with the associated phase/year:
• Add 1 eastbound right-turn lane (existing)
• Add 1 westbound right-turn lane (existing)
• Add 1 eastbound left-turn lane (2021) for a total of 2 eastbound left-turn lanes
o Convert signal phasing to only allow protected left-turns
• Add 1 southbound right-turn overlap signal timing phase with updated signal splits
(2021)
• Add a southbound right-turn lane for a total of 2 southbound right-turn lanes (2022)
Even with the recommended mitigation, the intersection of Overland Road/Silverstone Way is
still projected to exceed ACHD LOS thresholds with the 2022 and 2023 total traffic conditions.
As part of ACHD's action on Rackham Subdivision in 2019, that applicant was required to
construct an additional southbound left-turn lane for a total of 2 southbound left-turn lanes. This
was completed earlier this year.
Staff is not supportive of the proposal to install an additional southbound right turn lane to create
dual right turn lanes, as this is not ACHD's standard practice and will not be approved. In
addition, there is not enough right-of-way on Overland Road to accommodate the construction
of eastbound dual left turn lanes or the recommended westbound and eastbound right-turn
lanes, making these improvements infeasible. Therefore, staff does not recommend any
additional improvements to the intersection of Overland Road/Silverstone Way with this
development application.
Eagle Road and 1-84 Ramps
Eagle Road north of the eastbound 1-84 off ramp and the 1-84 eastbound and westbound
ramps are under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD). The applicant,
City of Meridian, and ITD should work together to determine if additional right-of-way or
improvements are necessary on Eagle Road abutting the site or the 1-84 eastbound and
westbound ramps.

• The average daily traffic count for Rackham Way from Silverstone Way to the site was 400
on 10/21/2020.
C. Findings for Consideration
1. Overland Road/Rolling Hill Drive
The study recommends restricting the intersection of Overland Road/Rolling Hill Drive to right-
in/right-out only with phase 2 in 2022, or when the site generates 45 PM peak hour trips. The
applicant should be required to restrict the intersection to right-in/right-out with a 6-inch raised
candles/median with the first phase of the development prior to ACHD's final approval of the first
final plat and after the private road, Rackham Way, is completed from Silverstone Way to the
8
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
Rolling Hill Drive. The applicant should be required to provide a public access easement over the
private road, Rackham Way.
Rolling Hill Drive aligns with an existing driveway on the south side of Overland Road for the
Movado Green Subdivision apartments. As part of ACHD's action on Movado Greens Subdivision,
ACHD approved this driveway as a temporary full access driveway and indicated that this
driveway could be restricted to right-in/right-out at any time in the future. This is consistent with
ACHD's action on access management on Overland Road with new developments on Overland
Road. Currently, Silverstone Way is signalized on Overland Road and the Movado Way/Overland
Road intersection will be evaluated for signal warrants with the future development north of
Overland Road.

Access on Overland Road
If Rolling Hill Drive will be restricted to emergency access only for the site as determined by ACHD,
then the applicant is not required to restrict the intersection of Rolling Hill Drive/Overland Road right-
in/right-out only.
2. Rolling Hill Drive
a. Existing Conditions: Rolling Hill Drive is improved with approximately 24-25 of pavement and
no curb, gutter or sidewalk within the site and to the south of the site. There is 50-feet of right-
of-way for Rolling Hill Drive (25-feet from centerline).
b. Policy:
Off-Site Streets Policy: District Policy 7206.2.3 states that if the proposed development is not
served by a public street that is fully improved to urban standards (curb, gutter, sidewalk) or a
minimum 30-feet of pavement, then the developer shall provide 30-feet of pavement with 3-foot
wide gravel shoulders from the site to the public street specified by the District; OR the
developer shall provide 24-feet of pavement with 3-foot wide gravel shoulders and a minimum
6-foot wide detached asphalt/concrete pedestrian facility, from the site to a public street
specified by the District.
Alternatives to pavement widening including sidewalks and pathways or other proposals, may
be considered by the District. The extent of roadway improvements (improvement type and
length) will be determined by evaluating certain criteria. Criteria to establish improvement type
and length include but are limited to: traffic volumes (existing and projected); number of
pedestrians (existing and projected); location of pedestrian "attractors" and "generators" (i.e.
parks and schools); number of access points/streets serving the proposed development; usable
right-of-way; need for traffic calming; utilities and irrigation facilities. All utility relocation costs
associated with the off-site street widening shall be borne by the developer.
9
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
Cul-de-sac Streets Policy: District policy 7207.5.8 requires cul-de-sacs to be constructed to
provide a minimum turning radius of 50-feet; in rural areas or for temporary cul-de-sacs the
emergency service providers may require a greater radius. Landscape and parking islands may
be constructed in turnarounds if a minimum 29-foot street section is constructed around the
island. The pavement width shall be sufficient to allow the turning around of a standard
AASHTO SU design vehicle without backing. The developer shall provide written approval from
the appropriate fire department for this design element.
The District will consider alternatives to the standard cul-de-sac turnaround on a case-by-case
basis. This will be based on turning area, drainage, maintenance considerations and the written
approval of the agency providing emergency fire service for the area where the development is
located.
c. Applicant Proposal: The applicant has proposed to vacate Rolling Hill Drive north of the site's
south property line as shown below in yellow in order to construct the development and an
internal private road network. The applicant has proposed to provide a permanent right-of-way
easement for a turnaround at the terminus of Rolling Hill Drive where it intersects the private
road, Rackham Way, within the site. However, a turnaround is not shown on the site plan at this
location.

d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The vacation of Rolling Hill Drive north of the private
road requires a separate application and has its own approval process. The applicant should
be required to vacate Rolling Hill Drive prior to ACHD's signature on the first final plat.
The applicant's proposal to provide a turnaround easement at the terminus Rolling Hill Drive
does not meet District Policy and is not approved, as proposed. The applicant should be
required to construct a mini-roundabout where Rolling Hill Drive and the private road,
Rackham Way, are proposed to intersect similar to the mini-roundabout at Silverstone Way
and the private road, Rackham Way, directly west of the site that was constructed with
Rackham Subdivision. See Finding 3.
The applicant should be required to improve the off-site portion of Rolling Hill Drive with 24-
feet of pavement, 3-foot wide gravel shoulders and a 6-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk
on one side of the road within the existing right-of-way.
The study reports the average daily traffic (ADT) for Rolling Hill Drive is projected to be 2,500
trips under the 2023 total traffic conditions with all 3 phases, and approximately 1,200 for
Phases 1 and 2, which accounts for the traffic from the 396 apartment units. Phases 1, 2 and
3 are shown in the shaded regions below. ACHD does not set level of service thresholds for
local roads, however, District Policy states that the ADT for local roads shall typically be less
than 2,000. Staff does not recommend that Rolling Hill Drive be reclassified as a collector or
commercial road to accommodate the traffic from all phases of the development because are
several existing single family residential homes that will remain on Rolling Hill Drive to the
south of the site and staff has concerns about the significant increase in traffic on an existing
local road that will continue to serve single family homes. Therefore, staff recommends that
the applicant be restricted to phases 1 and 2 with this development and should not be allowed
to construct the offices proposed for phase 3 of the development until the existing residential
homes on Rolling Hill Drive are purchased and the properties annexed into the City of
Meridian with commercial or mixed use zoning.

If ACHD determines that it is acceptable for the site to use Rolling Hill Drive as emergency
access only, then the off-site improvements for Rolling Hill Drive and the construction of the
mini-roundabout at the terminus of Rolling Hill Drive are not required and the applicant will be
required to construct a standard cul-de-sac at the terminus of Rolling Hill Drive.
3. Mini-Roundabout - Rolling Hill Drive/Private Road Rackham Way
If the site will use Rolling Hill Drive as a full access, then the applicant should be required to
construct a mini-roundabout at the terminus of Rolling Hill Drive at the private road, Rackham
Way, and follow the guidance provided in NCHRP 672 and will need to design the mini
roundabout meeting the standards ACHD's Roundabout Design Guide policy section 5188.
4. Private Road — Rackham Way
a. Private Road Policy: District policy 7212.1 states that the lead land use agencies in Ada County
establish the requirements for private streets. The District retains authority and will review the
proposed intersection of a private and public street for compliance with District intersection
policies and standards. The private road should have the following requirements:
• Designed to discourage through traffic between two public streets,
• Graded to drain away from the public street intersection, and
• If a private road is gated, the gate or keypad (if applicable) shall be located a minimum of
50-feet from the near edge of the intersection and a turnaround shall be provided.
Driveway Location Policy: District policy 7207.4.1 requires driveways near intersections to be
located a minimum of 75-feet (measured centerline-to-centerline) from the nearest local street
intersection, and 150-feet from the nearest collector or arterial street intersection.
Successive Driveways: District Policy 7207.4.1 states that successive driveways away from an
intersection shall have no minimum spacing requirements for access points along a local street,
but the District does encourage shared access points where appropriate.
Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7207.4.3 states that where vertical curbs are required,
residential driveways shall be restricted to a maximum width of 20-feet and may be constructed
as curb-cut type driveways.
12
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance
problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy,
7207.4.3, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet
into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway.
b. Applicant Proposal: The applicant has proposed to continue a private road, Rackham Way, from
the west to intersect the terminus of Rolling Hill Drive at the site's south property line.
c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal for the private road meets
District Policy with the construction of the mini-roundabout as stated in Findings 2 and 3. If the
City of Meridian approves the private road, the applicant shall be required to pave the private
roadway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of all public
streets and install pavement tapers with 15-foot curb radii abutting the existing roadway edge. If
private roads are not approved by the City of Meridian, the applicant will be required to revise and
resubmit the preliminary plat to provide public standard local streets in these locations.
Street name signs are required for the private road. The signs may be ordered through the
District. Verification of the correct, approved name of the road is required.
ACHD does not make any assurances that the private road, which is a part of this application, will
be accepted as a public road if such a request is made in the future. Substantial redesign and
reconstruction costs may be necessary in order to qualify this road for public ownership and
maintenance.
The following requirements must be met if the applicant wishes to dedicate the roadway to ACHD:
• Dedicate a minimum of 50-feet of right-of-way for the road.
• Construct the roadway to the minimum ACHD requirements.
• Construct a stub street to the surrounding parcels.
5. Traffic Calming
a. Speed Control and Traffic Calming Policy (Local): District policy 7207.3.7 states that the
design of local street systems should discourage excessive speeds by using passive design
elements. If the design or layout of a development is anticipated to necessitate future traffic
calming implementation by the District, or the streets extend greater than 750-feet in length, then
the District will require changes to the layout and/or the addition of passive design elements such
as horizontal curves, bulb-outs, chokers, etc. The District will also consider texture changes to
the roadway surface (i.e. stamped concrete) as a passive design element. These alternative
methods may require maintenance and/or license agreement.
b. Staff Comments/Recommendations: There will be approximately 14 residential homes
remaining on Rolling Hill Drive after the northern segment of Rolling Hill Drive is vacated for the
development of the site. Due to the increase in traffic with phases 1 and 2, the applicant should
be required to construct passive traffic calming measures on the off-site segment of Rolling Hill
Drive consistent with District Policy with the first phase of the development. The construction
plans for the passive traffic calming shall be submitted to ACHD with the first set of construction
plans. If Rolling Hill Drive will be restricted to emergency access only for the site as determined
by ACHD, then the applicant is not required to improve Rolling Hill Drive with traffic calming
measures.
6. Bridge for Five Mile Creek
There is 6-inch corrugated metal pipe with a smaller older metal pipe next to it, structure #1218,
that crosses Five Mile Creek on Rolling Hill Drive just south of View Circle, circled in yellow below.
The pipe has significant corrosion with deep pitting and thin sounding based on inspections by
ACHD staff. This crossing is planned to be replaced by ACHD, however, the development is
proposed to be ahead of ACHD's timeline to replace the structure. Staff has concerns about the
13
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
existing crossing's capacity for the construction traffic for the development and additional traffic
before it is improved. Therefore, the applicant should be required to enter into a Cooperative
Development Agreement (CDA) with ACHD to replace the crossing with the first phase of the
development. The applicant will be reimbursed by ACHD for the crossing replacement and
improvements.
The District will require that the applicant submit the crossing plans for the crossing of the Five Mile
Creek for review and approval prior to the pre-construction meeting and final plat approval. Note:
all plan submittals for bridges or pipe crossings of irrigation facilities should be submitted to ACHD
for review no later than December 15th for construction in the following year prior to irrigation
season.
If Rolling Hill Drive will be restricted to emergency access only for the site as determined by ACHD,
then the applicant is not required to replace structure #1218.

7. Parking
The applicant has proposed to provide 649 parking stalls to accommodate the residents and
guests for 396 units for the proposed multi-family development, which is approximately 1.63
parking spaces per unit. Staff has concerns about the available parking for the multi-family in
this development and the potential for overcrowded on-street parking on Rolling Hill Drive.
14
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
ACHD Traffic Services has received several complaints about overcrowded on-street parking in
the City of Meridian with new apartment complexes. It appears that there are more tenants per
apartment unit thus causing parking issues on adjacent public streets near apartment complex
sites due to the lack of affordable housing in the Treasure Valley. Parking spots are not allowed
to be striped on public roadways and on-street parking should not count towards the City's
parking requirements as it can be removed any time at the discretion of ACHD. ACHD
recommends that the City of Meridian require adequate on-site parking for the multi-family
development, as well as with the future development of the commercial and office lots to the
north of the multi-family development.
If parking issues develop on Rolling Hill Drive in the future due to insufficient parking within the
site for the development, staff recommends that the residents of Rolling Hill Drive contact ACHD
traffic services to initiate an investigation to determine if No Parking signs are warranted on
Rolling Hill Drive and the extents of the signage for No Parking on Rolling Hill Drive.
8. Tree Planters
Tree Planter Policy: Tree Planter Policy: The District's Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in
planters less than 8-feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be
allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed
in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet.
9. Landscaping
Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACHD
right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm
drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision triangle
at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height
restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop
signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District
requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans.
D. Site Specific Conditions of Approval
1. If the applicant chooses to request to restrict the site's access to Rolling Hill Drive to emergency
access only, then the applicant should be required to submit an updated operational analysis to
staff for the intersection of Silverstone Way/Overland Road with the traffic from Phases 1 and 2 of
the development under the 2022 conditions and traffic from the full buildout under the 2023
conditions, and the estimated ADT and peak hour trips on Silverstone Way with Phases 1 and 2
under the 2022 conditions and all Phases under the 2023 conditions. ACHD will determine if
restricting the site's access to Rolling Hill Drive to emergency access only will be acceptable based
on the updated analysis and District Policy.
a. If Rolling Hill Drive will be restricted to emergency access only, then the applicant shall be
required to construct a cul-de-sac at the terminus of the street after the vacation of Rolling
Hill Drive within their site is completed.
2. If the applicant chooses to not use Rolling Hill Drive as emergency access only, or ACHD
determines that access to Rolling Hill Drive for the site is necessary based on the updated analysis,
the applicant shall be required to restrict Rolling Hill Drive on Overland Road to right-in/right-out
only with a 6-inch raised candles/median with the first phase of the development prior to ACHD's
final approval on the first final plat and after the private road, Rackham Way, is completed from
Silverstone Way to Rolling Hill Drive. Provide a public access easement over the private road,
Rackham Way. The following is also required if Rolling Hill Drive will be used to access the site:

FINDINGS
ThIs study analyzed the traffic Impacts from Phase 1(2021), Phase 2 (2022). and Phase 3 (2023) of the
proposed Eagle View Landing Phase 2 Development located in Meridian. ID.The site is anticipated to
generate 80 total AM peak hour trips and 102 total PM peak hour trips in 2021, 127 total AM peak hour
trips and 163 total Phil peak hour trips in 2022,and 395 total AM peak hour trips and 432 total PM peak
hourtrips in ZD23(full build-out).
Key findings of this study show that the Eagle View Landing Phase 2 Development does impact the
operations of same study intersections near the project site. In 2023, the Eagle View Landing Phase 2
Developmerat traffic contributes to approximately 4.4-4.3%of the traffic at Eagle(toad&Overland Road
and S.6-10.5%of the traffic 5ilverstone Way&Overland Road in the AM and PM peak hours.

■ This mitigation is based on the resu Its of the turn-lane analysis.
Even with the above mitigations,the westbound 1-84 ramp,eastbound 1-84 ramp and the intersection at
Eagle Road & Overland Road were observed to continue to operate with unacceptable VIC ratios- A
separate comprehensive study to determine further ml#Igatlorr at the 1-84 Interchange and the
intersection of Eagle Road&Overland Road should be performed.Fehr&Peers anticipates that the study
will likely recommend a reconfigured interchange and possibly an alternative intersection configuration

2021 Background
Background traffic projections were developed for 2021 by growing the existing volumes with the
COMPASS annual growth rates.The trip generation reported in the iCCU Plaza TIS for the first phase of
development was also included in the background growth for the 2021 horizon yearfor this project as the
first phase of the ICCU Plaza wasarrticlpated to be completed by2020,
The above existing mitigations and the following improvements are recommended throughout the study
area:

• Overland Road& Eagle Road
o Restripe southbound left turn lams to Increase the total storage length to 600 feet,or
as long as ACHD taper rate limitations will allow,
• Overland Road&Silverstone Way
o Add 1 eastbound left-turn lane for a total of 2 eastbound left-turn Ian as
■ 7his will require converting the signal phasing to only allow protected-lefts,
instead of allowing both protected and permissive-lefts,
■ A total of 96 eastbound left#urn vehicles per hour can be added to the PM peak
period before this mitigation is required,
o Add a south bound right-turn overlap signal timing phase with updated signal splits,
■ A total of 91 southbound right turn vehicles per hour can be added to the RM
peak period before this mitigation is required.
Even with the above mitigations,the westbound 1-84 ramp,eastbound 1-84 ramp and the intersection at
Eagle Road & Overland Road were observed to continue to operate with unacceptable V/C ratios- A
separate ccmprehenslve study to determine further mltlgatlon at the 1-84 Interchange and the
intersection of Eagle Road&Overland Road should be performed.Fehr&Peers anticipates that the study
will likely recommend a reconfigured interchange and possibly an alternative intersection configuration
at Eagle Road&Overland Road.
2021 Plus Project
The 2021 Plus Project conditions included the addition of a NB/Si3 stop-controlled intersection at the
project access intersection of Rackham Way & Rolling Hills Drive. The proposed roundabout that will
provide access to the ICCU Plaza at Rackham Way&Silverstone Way is also included in all Plus Project
conditlons analyses_ Due to the proposed connectlon to Rolling Hills Drive, and since the ICCU Plaza and
Eagle View Landing developments are adjacent, some traffic from the ICCU Plaza development was
assumed to divert from Rackham Way and Silverstone Way to Rolling Hills Drive in each Plus Project
scenario.
While the prevlously outlines Improve the network over the unmitigated network, the intersection at
Overland Road&Silverstone Way was observed to operate at an unacceptable overall VIC ratio,but with
no individually fail ing motements-5inee the intersection was observed to operate just beyond acceptable
V/C ratio thresholds,and no Individual movements are falling,no additionaJ mltlgatlons are recommended
forthis scenario.
2022 Background
Gackgrourid traftic projections were developed for ZD22 by growing the existing volumes with the
COMPA55 annual growth rates.The trip generation reported inthe ICCU Plaza_n5 for the first two phases
of development ware also included in the background growth for the 2022 horimn year far this project
as the first phase of the ICCU Plaza was anticipated to be completed by 2022.
in additlon to the mitigations In the 2021 background oondlilon,the following rnitrgation is recommended;
• Overland Road&Silverstone Way
o Add southbound right-turn lane for a total of 2 southboond right-turn lanes,
■ Atotal of 158 sauthbound righttorn vehicIe3 per hourcan be added tothe PM

Even with the above rmrtigatlons,the westbound 1-84 ramp,eastbound 1-84 ramp,the Intersection at Eagle
Road & Overland Road, and the intersection at Overland Road & Silverstone Way were observed to
continue tooperatewith unacceptable V/Crysips-Asidefrom the separate comprehensive study of the 1-
84 interchange and the intersection of Eagle Road &Overland Road that was recommended previouSly,
no further mitigations are recommended in this scenario-
2022 Plus Project
Like the 2021 Plus Project scenario,the intersection of Overland Road&Rolling Hi11s Drive was analyzed
as bath an existing full NB/5B stop-controlled intersection and as a right-in-right-out restricted
intersection.Only the right-In-right-out con flguratlensoperated atacceptable LOSand V/C,
Therefore,in addition to the same mitigations that were recornrnended in previous analyses in this report,
the following recommendation i3 recommended within the study area:
+ Overland Road& Rolling Hills Drive
o Convert the intersection to a RIROconfguretion,
■ A total of 45 sDuthbound left turn vehicles per hour can be added to the PM
peak period before this mitigation is required-
As mentioned previously, even with the above mitigations, the westbound 1-84 ramp, eastbound I-84
earnp, the intersection at Eagle Road & Overland Road, and the Intersection at Overland Road &
Silverstone Way were observed to continue to operate with unacceptable VIC ratios. Aside from the
separate comprehensive study of the 1-84 interchange and the intersection of Eagle Road&Overland Road
that was recommended previously, no further mitigations are recommended in this scenario.
2028 Background
Background traffic projections were developed for 2023 by growing the existing volumes with the
COMPASS annual growth rates.It should be noted that while Phase 3 of the ll= Plaza is n-ot antiripated
lobe completed by 2023,which is the horizon year for Phase 3 of the Eagle View Landing development,
trlp generation From all three phases of the ICCU Plaza wero Included In the baCkground of this analysis
to present a holistic understanding of the traffic demands once all three phases of both developments are
completed-
In addition to the improvements recommended in previous chapters of this analysis, the following
recpmmendal ions are recommended within the study area-
• Eagle Road&Overland Road
o Add 1 westbound left-turn Ianefora total of 2 southbound left-turn lanes.
■ A total-of 127 eastbound through,6 eastbound right turn,and 84 westbound
left turn vehicles per hour can be added to the PM peak period westbound left
turn before this mItrgetion is repuIred.
As mentioned previously, even with the above mitigations, the westbound 1-84 ramp, eastbound 1-84
ramp, the intersection at Eagle Road & Overland Road, and the intersection at Overland Road &
Silverstone Way were observed to continue to operate with unacceptable VIC ratios-
Notably, beginning in this scenario,the southbound left-turn queue at Eagle Road &Overland Road will
likely no longer be accommodated by increasingthe storage length-Fehr&Peers recognizes that widening
100

Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Apartments
MPP21-0007/H-2021-0075
the Intersection Is planned Fora future project. However,wlthouta reconflguratlon of the Intersectlorr at
Eagle Road &Overland Road, it is likely that the 951h percentile sauthbound left-turning queue will spill
back to the eastbound offramp intersection and impact operations there. Fehr & Peers recommends
accelerating the pro€ens to evaluate and implement alternative intersection designs such as continuous
flow intersection(CFI),through-U-turn intersection,etc.as part of the redesign of the intersection at Eagle
Road&,Overland Readr tlke lse, Fehr & Peers recommends expediting the wldening of Eagle Road and
Overland Road since acceptable V/C ratios and queues at that intersection cannot be achieved without
either implementingthese widening projects or an alternative intersection configuration_
2023 Plus Project
The 2023 Plus Project conditions included the addition ofthe roundabout atthe project access at Rackham
Way&Silverstona Way as well as the NR/58 stop-controlled intersection at Rackham Way&Rolling Hills
Drive,The intersection of Overland Rood&Rolling Hills Drive was analyzed as both ari existing full NB/SB
stop-controlled intersection and as a right-in-right-out restricted intersection.It was determined that the
right-in-right-out rest rlcted Stop coin trol Is recommended for the 2023 Plus Profeetconditions-
As per the results of the right turn lane analysis performed for this scenario,the fallowing mitigaoon is
recommended within the study area:
+ Overland Road& Rolling Hills Drive
o Add a westbound right-turn storage lane.
* Overland Road From Eagle Road toSlIverstorre Way
o Either advance the planned GIP project to widen Overland Road from a five-lane to
severs-lane Bross section or implement sufficient TD M measures to reduce the total
traffic demand by 35 vehicles per hour in the shoulder hour before the PM peak period.
This mitigation is based on the results of the segment analysis.
As mentioned previously, even with the previous mitigations, the westbound I-18 ramp and the
intersection at Eagle Road&Overland Road were abserved to continue to operate with unacceptable V/C
ratios and will require further study to evaluate alternative interchange and intersection 00rrfiguratian5
at those locations.Fehr&Peers does not recommend further widening of either of these locations before
obtaining the resu Its frorn that study_
Also,while improved over tha unmitigated scan 2ria,the intersection 21Silvarstone Way&Overland Road
was still observed to operate at unacceptable V/C ratlo In the eastbound left turn movement, Mitigating
the failing movement beyond the listed recommendations would likely require extensive intersection
reconfiguration,so no additiorrall mitigations are recommended forth-is scenario_
Project Contribution to Traffic
Fehr&Peers compared the tripsgenerated bythe development at each intersection to the total trips at
each intersection during the Plus Project Conditions analyses_Table E:5-00.3 outlines the percentage of
traffic at each intersection that in generated by the development.Table E5-00-4 outlines the percentage
of traffic at each study segment that is generated by the develaprnert.
