Item 15:
Continued Public Hearing from June 6, 2006: PP 06-002 Request for
Preliminary Plat approval for 23 commercial lots on 22.85 acres in a C-G
zone for Gatewav Marketplace Subdivision by Landmark Development
- southeast corner of Ustick Road and Eagle Road:
Wardle: And open Public Hearing on Item 15, continued Public Hearing on PP 06-002.
I will begin with staff comments, but I believe Mrs. Canning will inform us that potentially
want to continue this discussion.
Canning: Yes, we do.
Wardle: How would you like to handle that?
Canning: I just need to make a brief presentation and you probably need to talk to the
applicant, so --
Wardle: Okay.
Canning: The applicant had asked for reconsideration on the preliminary plat. That
opens up the whole hearing. We are not presenting the whole hearing tonight. I don't
think anybody -- if they need to, we can do a full presentation at some point, but I don't
think it's necessary. The applicant wanted to see the results of this reconsideration in
anticipation that she may want to change the site if access points were not approved.
Since the Council has approved the right-in, right-out request, I suspect that the
applicant will not want to change the preliminary plat. However, it needs to get to ACHD
for their conditions and for their commission action and to -- for their conditions of
approval, so that we can get the final conditions of approval in your approval.
Therefore, we would recommend, if that's the way the applicant wants to proceed
tonight, that we table this until July 18th. That should give the Commission a sufficient
time to act and we can get those incorporated into your draft Findings.
Wardle: Thank you, Anna. Would the applicant, please, come forward. And for the
record please state your name and address.

Thompson: Mr. President, Members of the Council, Tamara Thompson, Landmark
Development Group, 1882 Taluka Way in Boise. It is true that if the -- if the access
changed, that we were looking at, you know, maybe some site redesign or maybe even
changing some uses from retail, but -- thank you very much. As far as the conditions,
we do have draft conditions from ACHD, which were attached to the previous
preliminary plat approval and I guess it was kind of a -- we all missed it. You know, we
thought they are approved and they weren't. So, at this point I have talked to ACHD,
they said they don't think there is going to be any issues as far as, you know, their
commission changing anything, but -- but they did say that they would be okay with us
just adding a global condition to comply with any of the conditions that come from
ACHD and we are okay with that if we can get that approved tonight. If not, then, July
18th will have to work. Thank you.
Wardle: Questions for the applicant?
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Anna, do you, as a staff, have any problem going ahead if they have no problem?
Canning: Yes, sir. I think it sets a bad precedent. I think that we have waited for ACHD
comments before and that's the best way to go.
Bird: Surprises.Yeah. That's--
Wardle: Is there anyone further that would wish to testify on this application? Does the
applicant have any closing remarks?
Borton: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Borton.
Borton: Seeing no other remarks, I move we continue Item 15, PP 06-002 to July 18th.
Bird: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to continue Item 15 to the date certain July 18th
of 2006. All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.

Public Hearing: RZ 06-001 Request for a Rezone of 5.40 acres from R-8
