SUBJECT:
Windsong Subdivision No.2
Request for Final Plat Approval of Five (5) Single-Family Residential Lots on
1.06 Acres in an R-8 Zone for Windsong Subdivision No.2, by Landmark
Engineering and Planning, Inc. (File No. FP~06-038).
We have reviewed this submittal and offer the following comments and conditions of the applicant.
These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion of the
Meridian City Council:
APPLICATION SUMMARY & LOCATION
The applicant, Landmark Engineering and Planning, Inc., has requested final plat approval for phase 2 of
Windsong Subdivision. This phase consists of five single-family residential lots on 1.06 acres in an R-8
zone. The gross density of Phase 2 is 4.71 dwelling units per acre. The net density is 5.17 dwelling units
per acre.
The proposed subdivision is located approximately 300 ft. north ofW. Ustick Road and 600 ft. west ofN.
Linder Road, in the SE ~ of Section 35, TAN., R.l W.
The dimensional standards for the common driveway located on Lots 16 & 17, Block 3 were approved
with the preliminary plat under the old Meridian City Code. While they don't meet the current standards
of the new Unified Development Code, the Planning Director deemed that they were vested under the
code that was in effect at the time the preliminary plat was approved.
This phase of Wind song Subdivision was previously approved by City Council on April 27, 2004 but the
applicant was unable to record the fmal plat within the allotted one year time period because of a
boundary dispute on the south-eastern boundary of the property. Since the plat was not recorded within
one year, the final plat approval is null and void. The preliminary plat, however, is still valid; therefore,
the applicant is now resubmitting the final plat for this phase. Staff fmds that the proposed final plat is
consistent with the approved preliminary plat.
Staff recommends approval of Windsong Subdivision No.2 with the comments and conditions stated in
this report.
