ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS on page 3 second paragraph, it
shall now read as follows:
The proposed 14' wide access road, located on the west side of Lot 8,
Block 8, is placed within a twenty-foot (20') wide city sewer easement.
The roadway was not depicted on the original preliminary plat and
landscape plans; rather, a meandering pathway was shown over the City's
sewer main easement. As long as there are no manholes located within
the interior of this lot, a meandering pathway can be constructed over this
easement, and there will be no need for a 14' wide road to bisect this lot.
The elimination of a straight cut-through road from this lot and replacing
it with a meandering path will increase the visual appearance of the lot
and increase the safety ofthe lot by reducing the risk of possible cut-
through traffic utilizing the road. Additionally, ACHD may request a
vehicular access to get to the storrnwater area, which is located close to
the pool on the Site Plan. If this vehicular access is required by ACHD
then the applicant shall either: I) have the common lot approved as is, or
2) that the area for the vehicular access shall be of a grass creet design to
support the vehiculars, but not of a hard surface pathway. Please refer to
site specific item number five (5) below.

· Final Plat Approval of Seventy-three (73) Building Lots and Four (4) Other
Lots on 21.69 Acres in an R-8 Zone, by Briggs Engineering (File No. FP-02-
020).
We have reviewed the above referenced submittals and offer the following comments, as
conditions of approvaL. These conditions shall be considered in fuD, unless expressly
modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council:
APPLICATION SUMMARY
The applicant, Briggs Engineering, have requested approval of the final plat for Sundance
Subdivision No.2, consisting of seventy-three (73) building lots and four (4) other lots on a
21.69-acre parcel of land located on the northeast corner of the Meridian and Ustick Road
intersection.
The City Council approved the annexation and preliminary plat for the subdivision in February
of this year (2002). The first phase of the Sundance Subdivision was also approved earlier this
year. The first phase of the subdivision followed the submitted phasing plan as approved. The
final plat for phase two of Sundance Subdivision does not follow the approved phasing plan;
however, staff does not object to the proposed changes to the phasing plan. The applicant will be
building the large open-space/park as part of this phase (#2) instead of waiting to build it in the
third phase.
The applicant has also modified and upgraded the park lot (Lot 8, Block 8) to include additional
amenities that were not proposed at the time of the preliminary plat approval. The applicants
have eliminated the proposed full court basketball court and gazebo (approv(ld as part of the
Conditional Use Permit) and have replaced it with a pool and a clubhouse.
Other than the enlargement of the second phase of the subdivision, the submitted final plat
appears to be in conformance with the approved preliminary plat.
LOCATION
The property is located at the northeast corner Meridian and Ustick Road.
