RE: H-2023-0062/ 3840 E Overland Road / Taylor Annexation
Stacy,
The City of Meridian has requested feedback regarding an annexation with rezone from R1
(Estate Residential) to R-2 (Low Density Residential) in order to connect to city services.
Ada County is supportive of the proposed annexation as it is compatible with Goal 2.2 of the
Ada County Comprehensive Plan, which encourages urban development be directed to Areas
of City Impact where investments in urban services have already been made.
The Future Land Use Map of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan, as adopted by Ada County,
designates the site as Mixed-Use Regional, which is intended to provide a mix of employment,
retail, residential dwellings, and public uses near major arterial intersections. As the site
includes a single-family residence and annexation is due to the necessity to connect to city
services it is supported by the following goal of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan, Goal
2.01.01, which encourages diverse housing options for various income levels, household sizes,
and lifestyle preferences. Therefore, the application is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
Stacey Yarrington
Community & Regional Planner
