The Land Group, Inc. is pleased to represent the applicant, Joint School District No. 2, DBA West Ada School District. Background The subject parcel is located at 2311 E Lanark St, which is generally located north of E Franklin Road and near the future extension of E Lanark St, which will bisect the parcel. The property includes one 12-acre parcel (S1108438405) in the City of Meridian, ADA County, Idaho. The site is currently developed as an alternative high school, baseball field, district maintenance office, and undeveloped area. No changes to the current uses are proposed with this application. To accommodate the future extension of E Lanark St. (by others) and facilitate the future development of a playfield south of the school building, the applicant is proposing split zoning of I-L Zone on the north and west and C-G Zone on the south and east which allows public schools as a permitted use. The entire parcel currently is in a light industrial (I-L) zone.
