3. Existing Roadway Improvements and Right-of-Way Adjacent To and Near the Site
• Linder Road is currently improved with 2 traffic lanes, and no curb gutter or sidewalk abutting
the site. There is 50-feet of right-of-way existing for Linder Road (25-feet from centerline).
• Chinden Boulevard (US 20/26) is currently improved with 2 traffic lanes, and no curb, gutter or
sidewalk abutting the site; east of Linder, Chinden has tyvo traffic lanes and a center turn lane.
There is approximately 80-feet of right-of-way existing for Chinden Boulevard. Chinden
Boulevard is under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Transportation Department
4. Existing Access: There are two existing gravel driveways on Linder Road to the site, and no
defined access to Chinden Boulevard (US 20/26).
5. Site History: This site was platted in 1991 as one of the open space lots within anon-
Farm subdivision, Brandt Subdivision.
Development Impacts
6. Trip Generation: This development is estimated to generate 3,858 additional vehicle trips per
day based on the submitted traffic impact study.
7. 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.
8. Traffic Impact Study: A traffic impact study was required with this application. Below are
the principal conclusions of the submitted TIS prepared by Washington Group International.
• The proposed development is project to generate an average daily traffic (ADT) volume of 3,858
vehicles of which the a.m. peak hour traffic is 209 vehicles per hour (vph) and the p.m. peak
hour traft'ic is 363 vph.
• As a result of the site build-out, traffic on the roadways in the project vicinity are expected to
increase. Traffic on Chinden Boulevard may increase by 390 vpd west of Linder Raad and
1,930 vpd east. Traffic on Linder Road may increase by 390 vpd north and 1,160 vpd south of
Chinden Blvd., respectively. Traffic on Meridian Road may increase 40 vpd north and 200 vpd
south of Chinden Blvd., respectively.
• The intersection of Linder Road and Chinden Boulevard is signalized with a single thru/right
lane and separate left turn bay an each leg. The intersection currently operates at level of
service (LOS) E in both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. Far the 2011 Background condition, the
intersection is forecast to operate at LOS F in both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours.
Improvements to the intersection are needed to accommodate the Background traffic
volumes.
2 Knight Sky Estates! MPP-06-004/MAZ-O6-005
• With improvements, the Linder Road/Chinden Blvd. intersection is forecast to operate at LOS E
in both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours far the 2011 Background and Build Out conditions. No
additional improvements are needed to accommodate the Build Out condition.
• The intersection of Meridian Road and Chinden Boulevard is signalized with a single thru/right
lane and separate left turn bay on each leg. The intersection currently operates at LO5 C in
both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. For the 2011 Background condition, the intersection is
forecast to operate at LOS E in both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. For the 2011 Build Out
condition, the intersection is forecast to operate at LOS E in both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours.
No improvements are needed to accommodate the Build out condition.
• The site approach with Linder Road was assumed to be two-way STOP controlled on the minor
approaches. For the 2011 Build Out condition, the intersection is forecast to operate at LOS B in
the a.m. peak hour and LOS C in the p.m. peak hour. A left turn bay and improved curb radii
are warranted at the site.
• The site approach with Chinden Boulevard is signalized with one thru/right turn lane and a
separate left turn bay on each leg. For the 2011 Build Out condition, the intersection is forecast
to operate at LOS D in the a.m. peak hour and LOS B in the p.m. peak hour. No Improvements
are needed to accommodate the Build Out condition.
• The average daily traffic (ADT) volumes for both Linder Road and Meridian Road are below
COMPASS thresholds.
• The average daily traffic (ADT) volumes for Chinden Boulevard meet or exceed COMPASS
thresholds for the Background condition. Capacity improvements to Chinden Blvd. are
needed for the Background conditions.
• ITD is currently studying Chinden Boulevard (US 20/26). If widened to a five lane section, the
roadway will have adequate capacity for the Build Out condition.
• The internal site roadways meet local requirements for a maximum of 1,000 vpd on local roads
with front-on housing.
TIS Recommendations:
• A second eastlwest bound thru lane should be added to the Linder Road/Chinden Blvd.
intersection. (This recommendation was also part of the Lochsa Subdivision Traffic Impact
Study).
• The Linder Road site approach warrants a left turn bay on Linder Road for vehicles entering the
site. The curb radii should be 30 feet or greater to accommodate right turning traffic.
• Additional lanes are needed to increase capacity along Chinden Boulevard. A five-lane section
would have enough capacity to accommodate the Build Out traffic volumes.

10. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program
The intersection of Linder Road and Chinden Boulevard is identified in the current Capital
Improvements Plan to be widened. The ongoing update for the CIP proposes that Linder Road be
widened to a 5-lane arterial roadway standard from Floating Feather to Overland Road.
11. Neighborhood Concerns
District staff has been contacted by a few surrounding property owners that have concerns related
to the development of this site. The concerns include the proposed local street intersection with
Linder Road, the current traffic volumes on Linder Road, the current traffic volumes at the
intersection of Linder Road and Chinden Boulevard, and the internal location of the
local/commercial frontage street.
B. Findin s for Consideration
1. Linder Road
Right-of--Way Policy: District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on arterial roadways (Figure
72-F1 B). This right-of--way allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot
concrete detached sidewalks and bike lanes.
Sidewalk Policy: District policy requires 7-foot wide attached (or 5-foot detached) concrete
sidewalk on all collector roadways and arterial roadways (7204.7.2).
Staff Comment/Recommendation: In order to accommodate a 5-lane roadway section on Linder
Road and an additional right-turn lane at the intersection of Linder Road and Chinden Boulevard,
the District will require a total of 60-feet of right-of-way be dedicated abutting the site along Linder
Road. Dedicate a total of 60-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Linder Road abutting the
parcel by means of a warranty deed. The right-of-way purchase and sale agreement and deed must
be completed and signed by the applicant prior to scheduling the final plat far signature by the
ACRD Commission or prior to issuance of a building permit (or other required permits), whichever
occurs first. Allow up to 30 business days to process the right-of-way dedication after receipt of all
requested material. The owner will be paid the fair market value of the right-of-way dedicated which
is an addition to existing ACRD right-of-way.
The applicant will also be required to construct a 5-foot detached concrete sidewalk abutting the
site. The sidewalk should be located a minimum of 53-feet from the centerline of Linder Road.
The applicant will be required to construct a left turn bay on Linder Road for vehicles entering the
site at Knights Park Drive, in accordance with the submitted Traffic Impact Study. The curb radii
should be 30 feet or greater to accommodate right turning traffic at the site entrance.
2. Chinden Boulevard
Chinden Boulevard is under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Transportation Department. The applicant
has coordinated with ITD in relation to the right-of-way proposed to be preserved (100-feet from
centerline) and the proposed access point. The applicant has proposed access at the half-mile in
alignment with Long Lake and the signal that was installed with Lochsa Falls Subdivision. Chinden
Boulevard is a Type IV access controlled highway with access points allowed at the half-mile. All
signal modifications including relocation of utilities and irrigation at the intersection of Long Lake
Way and Chinden Boulevard, will be the responsibility of this applicant.
4 Knight Sky Estates! MPP-06-004/MAZ-06-005
3. Internal Commercial Streets
Right-of-Way Policy: District policy requires 54-feet of right-of-way on industrial/commercial
roadways (Figure 72-F18). This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 3-lane roadway with
curb, gutter and 5-foot wide concrete sidewalks.
Section Policy: District policy 7202.8 and 72-F1A, requires roadways abutting commercial
developments to be constructed as a 40-foot street section with curb, gutter and 5-foot concrete
sidewalk within 54-feet of right-of-way.
Island Policy: District policy 7202.7 and 7207.5 require islands to be constructed a minimum of 4-
feet wide with a minimum area of 100-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.
Tree Planter Width Policy: The applicant should also comply with the District's Tree Planter Width
Interim Palicy which prohibits all trees in planters less than 6-feet in width. In addition to prohibiting
trees in planters less than 6-feet in width, the policy requires a minimum planter width of 6-feet for
class II tress with the installation of root barriers on both sides of the planter strip or a minimum
planter width of 8-feet without the installation of a root barrier. The policy also requires Class I and
Class III trees to provide a minimum planter width of 10-feet.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant has proposed to construct a commercial street that parallels
Chinden Boulevard as a frontage road to serve the commercial lots and the townhouse lots within
this development. The street, Knights Park Drive, is proposed to be constructed as a boulevard
style with center landscaped medians. The applicant is proposing a 40-foot street section where
there are no islands, and 21-foot street sections on either side of the islands where they are located
in the center of the street. The applicant is proposing vertical curb, gutter, and 5-foot detached
sidewalks along this boulevard style roadway.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: The applicant's proposal meets District policy and should be
approved with this application.
4. Internal Residential Streets
Right-of-way: District policy 7204.4.1 and Figure 72-F1A requires 50-feet of right-of-way on local
streets. This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 2-lane roadway with curb, gutter and 5-foot
wide concrete sidewalks.
Street Section: District policy 72-F1A, allows local residential public roads with a 33-foot street
section with parking on both sides of the roadway, if the amount of vehicle trips per day on the
street does not exceed 1,000 and the appropriate 1•ire department reviews and approves the street
section. The proposed density of development that will utilize the internal local residential streets is
anticipated to generate less than 1,000 vehicle trips per day.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant has proposed 33-foot street sections with rolled curb, gutter,
and 5-foot concrete sidewalks throughout the residential areas of the development.
Staff CommentlRecommendation: The applicant's proposal meets District policy. The reduced
street section requires Fire Department approval and typically the Meridian Fire Department prefers
a 34-foot street section, rather than the 33-foot street section.
5 Knight Sky Estates/ MPP-06-004/MAZ-06-005
5. Private Streets
Policy: District policy 7205.6, other jurisdictions 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.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct private streets, that intersect the main
commercial street, to serve the proposed townhouses.
Staff CommentlRecommendation: The City of Meridian and the Meridian Fire Department will
review and approve the design of the proposed private streets. The proposed locations of the
private streets meet District offset policy.
6. Stub Streets
Stub Street Policy: 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 intro-neighborhood
circulation or to provide access to adjoining properties. Stub streets will conform with the
requirements described in Section 7204.5, 7204.6 and 7204.7, except a temporary cul-de-sac will
not be required if the stub street has a length no greater than 150-feet. A sign shall be installed at
the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE."
In addition, a stub street must meet the following conditions:
1. A stub street shall be designed to slope towards the street intersection and drain surface
water toward that intersection, unless a satisfactory storm drain system is installed.
2. The District may require appropriate covenants guaranteeing that the stub street will
remain free of obstructions.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant has not proposed to construct any stub streets to the
surrounding properties.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: In review of the site layout, District staff is recommending that
the applicant construct a local stub street to the 2.99-acre out-parcel located at the northwest corner
of the development. This parcel is currently undeveloped.
District staff also recommends that a stub street be constructed to the Spurwing property to the
west. This stub street should intersect the entrance road, Long Lake Way, without changing the
current configuration of that entrance road (see attached sketch). This requirement would provide
for the possibility of the Spurwing development to have access to the half-mile signal on Chinden
Boulevard if the roadways are connected in the future. In addition, if the Spurwing development ties
into this development in the future, there is the possibility of closing the existing Spurwing access
on Chinden Boulevard which is located approximately 600-feet west of the half-mile signal.
District staff is not recommending that a stub street be constructed to the north property line due to
the anticipated development pattern. The properties adjacent to the north are located within the
Impact Area for the City of Eagle and are anticipated to be developed with densities of 1 unit per 2
acres. Currently the properties to the north are 5-acre parcels. With the zoning in effect through
the City of Eagle, these properties would only be able to subdivide one time. The District does not
anticipate being able to have a nexus for requiring the extension of a full public street for one
additional lot, if the properties to the north re-develop.

7. Roadway Offsets
Roadway Offset Policy; District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a
minimum of 300-feet from an arterial roadway (measured centerline to centerline).
District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 125-feet from
another local roadway (measured centerline to centerline).
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct the entrance road on Linder Road,
Knights Park Drive, approximately 550-feet north of Chinden Boulevard (centerline to centerline).
The internal residential roadways are proposed to meet District offset policy.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: The applicant's proposal meets District offset policy. The
applicant has proposed the internal commercial street to intersect Linder Road at the site's furthest
north property line.
8. Driveways
Offset Policy: District policy 72-F4 (1) and 72-F4 (2), requires driveways located on
commercial/industrial roadways to offset a controlled and/or uncontrolled intersection a minimum of
50-feet (measured near edge to near edge).
Width Policy: District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes aver
1,000 vehicles to a maximum width of 36-feet. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be
required for driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways.
Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to
gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, 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 and install pavement tapers with 15-foot radii abutting the existing
roadway edge.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to locate the commercial driveways along Knights
Park Drive, at the shared property lines of the commercial lots. The driveways are spaced more
than 300-feet apart. The driveways are proposed to be 40-feet wide.
Staff CommentlRecommendation: The proposed locations of the commercial driveways meet
District policy and should be approved as proposed. The driveways will be restricted to a maximum
of 36-feet in width.
9. Turnarounds
Policy: 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 100-square foot area.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant has proposed to construct the cul-de-sac turnarounds with
center islands and parking spaces within the islands.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: The applicant shall coordinate the proposed parking within the
cul-de-sac turnarounds with District Development Review staff.
7 Knight Sky Estates/ MPP-06-004/MAZ-O6-005
10. Unopened Right-of-Way/Easement
Policy: District policy 7203.4.2 states that if a proposed development abuts an unpaved street or
streets, the developer shall canstruct full one-half street improvements, including curb, gutter, and
sidewalk, plus additional pavement widening beyond the centerline established for the street to
provide a minimum 24-foot wide paved surface.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: There is a 25-foot roadway easement along the site's north
property line identified on the original subdivision plat, Brandt Subdivision. The applicant will be
required to vacate or exchange the un-opened roadway easement through a separate public
hearing process.

Request for Reconsideration of Commission Action
Request for Reconsideration of Commission Action: A Commissioner, a member of ACRD
staff or any other person objecting to any final action taken by the Commission may request
reconsideration of that action, provided the request is not for a recansideration of an actian
previously requested to be reconsidered, an action whose provisions have been partly and
materially carried out, or an action that has created a contractual relationship with third parties.
a. Only a Commission member who voted with the prevailing side can move far
reconsideration, but the motion may be seconded by any Commissioner and is voted on by
all Commissioners present.
If a motion to reconsider is made and seconded it is subject to a motion to postpone to a
certain time.
b. The request must be in writing and delivered to the Secretary of the Highway District no later
than 3:00 p.m. on the day prior to the Commission's next scheduled regular meeting
following the meeting at which the action to be reconsidered was taken. Upon receipt of the
request, the Secretary shall cause the same to be placed on the agenda for that next
scheduled regular Commission meeting.
c. The request for reconsideration must be supported by written documentation setting forth
new facts and information not presented at the earlier meeting, or a changed situation that
has developed since the taking of the earlier vote, or information establishing an error of fact
or law in the earlier action. The request may also be supported by oral testimony at the
meeting.
d. If a motion to reconsider passes, the effect is the original matter is in the exact position it
occupied the moment before it was voted on originally. It will normally be returned to ACRD
staff for further review. The Commission may set the date of the meeting at which the
matter is to be returned. The Commission shall only take action on the original matter at a
meeting where the agenda notice so provides.
e. At the meeting where the original matter is again on the agenda for Commission action,
interested persons and ACRD staff may present such written and oral testimony as the
President of the Commission determines to be appropriate, and the Commission may take
any action the majority of the Commission deems advisable.
If a motion to reconsider passes, the applicant may be charged a reasonable fee, to cover
administrative costs, as established by the Commission.
