The project is generally located on the west side of Linder Road approximately'/a mile north of Ustick Road in Section 35, Township 4 North, Range 1 West. The subject property is comprised of three tax parcels containing 39.05 acres of lahd. The site lies contiguous to the Meridian City Limits on its western boundary where it abuts the recently approved and annexed Bridgetdwer Subdivision. The land is currently zoned RUT in Ada County. Site Overview The site contains a single family dwelling and is currently utilized for agricultural purposes: The White Drain crosses the property on its' northeast corner and a 32' easement for the White Drain Sewer Trunk Line bisecfs the property from east to west along the north property line. Future phases of the recently approved Bridgetdwer Subdivision abut the property along its' entire western boundary. Project Overview Arinexatiori /Zoning The applicant is requesting annexation and a rezone from the existing RUT (Rural Urban Transition) to R•8 (Medium Density Residential). The land is designated as Medium Density Residential on the Meridian City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, intending development with detached single family residential lots with three to eight dwelling units per acre. The zoning amendment is desirable in that it conforms to the Future Land Use Map and expands the tax base of the City._The amendment is supported by numerous policies in the Comprehensive Plan, particularly those in the Land Use Section. Specifically, Goal I, Objectives C, D; Goal II; Goal III, Objective A; Goal IV, Objectives A, B, C, D; Goal V, Objectives A, B, C, D. l ~~.u Engineers Surveyors Planners Development Narrative Watersong Estates November 6, 2002 Page 2 Preliminory Plat/Overall Proiect Design The preliminary plat contains a total of 140 lots (125 buildable, 15 common) ranging in size from approximately 6,600 square feet to 10,000 square feet. The plat achieves an overall gross density of 3.2 dwelling units per acre. As designed, the plat contains 4.9 acres of landscaped open space and street buffers, or 12.5% of the plat area. Irrigation The site contains the Coleman Lateral, which is owned and maintained by the Settlers Irrigation District. The lateral runs in an east/west direction along the southern boundary of the property to the southwest property corner, where it turns to the north. The ditch will be piped within an easement for the Settlers Irrigation District. Surface irrigation water will be delivered to a pumping station at the northeast corner of the site providing pressurized irrigation water to all lots within the development. The irrigation system will be owned and ,maintained by the Settlers Irrigation District. Transportation Primary access to the property is provided by two public road connections to Linder Road on the east boundary of the property. In addition, the project will connect with two stub streets required in the Bridgetower Subdivision to the west and will leave stubs to the north and south as well. The Ada County Highway District determined. that a traffic study was not warranted by the development, particularly in light of the Ndrth Meridiari Traffic.Stlldy conducted by Washington Infrastructure Services. The existing transportation network is adequate to accommodate the approximately 1,200 trips expected to be generated by this development with the typical improvements required by the Highway District, including the dedication of an additional 23' of right-of-way and addition of deceleration lanes on Linder Road. Schools Prior to designing the project the Joint School District #2 was consulted to determine the need for a school.site within the project. Mr. Wendel Bigham, Supervisor of Facilities and Coristruction for the District, indicated that the District had adequate land in this area to accommodate future needs, including a future middle school site directly across Linder Road to the east and a future elementary school site within Cedar Springs Subdivision approximately one-mile to the east. Water Et Sewer Water will be available from a 16" line in Linder Road and sewer service is available from the White Drain Sewer Trunk Line along the north boundary of the project. Sewer and water stubs will be provided to adjdining properties as may be required. \\Boisefiles\Public\ProjectManage[s\GAL\N64Tadmin\app letter.doc ~! ~~~u Engineers Surveyors Planners Development Narrative Watersong Estates November 6, 2002 Page 3 Fire Service The project is located in the Meridian Fire District.
