This site will also have quick access to z the interstate that will take it future residents' minutes away from amenities, conveniences, and schools. Pivot Pointe Subdivision will offer a special place to call home. This small infill provides a welcoming entrance and a tucked away layout surrounded by existing mature single-family residences. Pivot Pointe will be a great fit for all ranges from young families just starting out, to people preparing for retirement and everyone in between who are ready to call Meridian their "forever home." Subject Site History and Site Characteristics The site is currently in Ada County with an RUT zoning designation. Characteristics of the site include street frontage on Pine Street. This site is relatively flat that contains a single-family residence, outbuildings, and pastures. The Kennedy Lateral bisects the northeast portion of the site. Pivot Pointe is surrounded by existing older subdivisions to the north and east. To the west and southwest is Horse Meadows and Alexanders Landing Subdivision. These are two (2) small infill sites that KB Home is also developing and are currently under construction. Overall, the three developments will be under one HOA and marketing name, please see Exhibit F for reference of these adjacent developments. Annexation and Comprehensive Plan Goals The subject site has been designated as residential within the City of Meridian's Comprehensive Plan and is within the Area of Impact for the City. Based on the current Comprehensive Plan and the characteristics of the surrounding area and zoning this application will be requesting the zone of R-4 single family residential. The R-4 zone is compatible to the surrounding residential land uses that are zoned R-4 and R-8. The following Comprehensive Plan goals are being met with our application: 2.01.01 - Encourage diverse housing options suitable for various income, levels, household sizes, and lifestyle preferences. 2.02.02D -Apply appropriate design and construction standards to infill development in order to reduce adverse impacts to existing Development. 3.03.01E -Encourage infill development 3.03.01D -Develop incentives for appropriate investment in strategic growth areas; discourage development outside of established growth areas. 3.03.03D—Require all development to be consistent with Future Land Use Map designations for the property. 3.03.03F -Permit new development only where it can adequately be served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval and in accord with any adopted level of Pivot ointe 3 services for public facilities and services. Preliminary Plat Pivot Pointe Subdivision is a residential community that will consist of 41 residential lots and 10 common lots. The breakdown of lots are as follows: Overall Project Data Single Family Residential Lots 41 Common Lots 10 Gross Density 5.37 du/per acre Net Density 7.15 du/per acre Minimum Residential Lot Size 4,000 s.f Average Residential Lot Size 4,307 s.f. Maximum Residential Lot Size 5,595 s.f. Table 1:Overall Project Data Sewer for the site has been reviewed and coordinated with the City of Meridian Land Development Department. This site will be connecting to existing sewer and water services that we will be providing via Horse Meadows and Alexander's Landing. All drainage will remain onsite collected via two seepage beds located in common lots. Pressurized irrigation will be provided through the existing pressurized irrigation water system located east of the site. We will be upgrading and improving the existing pump house for our pressurized irrigation system, which will be closely coordinated with the Nampa Meridian Irrigation. The Kennedy Lateral that bisects the NE portion of the site will be tiled. This construction will be coordinated with Nampa Meridian Irrigation with a land use change application along with a 404 permit with the Army Corp. Pivot Pointe Subdivision's main ingress/egress will be located off Pine Road. We will also be connecting to the existing stub road Quarter Horse Lane that connects are three sites together. All internal residential streets will have 47' right of way with a 33' section of pavement with 5' attached sidewalks. KB Home understands and respects the importance of dark-sky lighting for this area. Pivot Pointe Subdivision will provide dark sky outdoor lighting throughout the site to minimize glare and light pollution onto neighboring properties and throughout the immediate area. Phasing of the site is currently proposed as one(1)phase. While it is KB Home's intent to follow the phasing plan, future market conditions and lot absorption rates will dictate how the project is ultimately phased and constructed. Pivot ointe 4 Open Space and Amenities Pivot Pointe Subdivision will have a total of 1.24 acres of open space for our site, the qualified percentage of open space is at 16.35%. Abundant landscape and useable open space can be seen throughout our site, as illustrated in Exhibit B. Starting at the main entrance,residents and visitors will be welcomed with a beautifully landscape frontage and attractively designed monumentation sign. At the heart of the development will be a central amenity, this space will be the development's focal point and gathering place for residents. This central amenity will include a fire pit with seating surrounded by thoughtfully designed landscape. The residents will also be able to utilize the amenities at our neighboring developments. Horse Meadows has a covered shelter/picnic area and Alexander's Landing will have a community playground. Tree Mitigation There are numerous trees on the site. We have been working closely with Meridian's Arborist to mitigate the tree loss. Due to the size of the property, we are not able to mitigate all the caliper inches to this site. Working with our arborist, landscape architects and Kyle Yonta with the City of Meridian, we have created a plan that preserves some existing trees, replants trees within the site and distributes a portion of the required inches towards the neighboring developments as well. This solution allows us to make up the 1,243 caliper inches needed for the mitigation. KB Home—Building Styles Pivot Pointe Subdivision will offer a wide variety of housing styles. Pivot Pointe will have numerous floorplans and elevation styles to choose from. Please refer to Exhibit E for elevation and interior examples. These collections will help ensure that Pivot Pointe has many housing options available and are harmonious but distinctive in appearance. Housing sizes will range from 1,400 s.f. up to 3,100 s.f. Each home is built-to-suit, KB offers personlization and choices from the home site, floorplan and construction options for each individual house.

Neighborhood Meeting A Neighborhood meeting was held at City of Meridian conference room "A" on June 17, 2024. During the meeting I had approximatley nine(9)people attended. They were curious on the timing of construction of all three developments, coordition of traffic flow during construction, ingress/egress for Pivot Pointe and improvements to Black Cat Road. Summary KB Home has an unwavering commitment to the quality of product and design that goes into our communities and homes. Pivot Pointe Subdivision will epitomize this vision and commitment that KB Home has in making a community special. What will make Pivot Pointe Subdivision special, are all the thoughtful details that went into this design and those covered in this narrative and application. This infill project will make a great addition and future phase to our other adjoining developments. Overall, we are extremely proud of our proposed community and look forward to working with staff on our applications.
