There are no roadway improvements such as curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site.
2
Meridian Road is a principal arterial roadway with 4-travel lanes (dedicated left turn lane at the
intersection) with a center turn lane extending south of the intersection. There are no roadway
improvements such as curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site.
8. Existing Right-of-Way
Overland Road has approximately 94-feet of existing right-of-way (45-feet on the south side of the
centerline).
Meridian Road has approximately 104-feet at the intersection tapering south to 126-feet of existing
right-of-way (54-feet at the intersection tapering to 60-feet at the southern property line from the east
side of the centerline: approximately 50-feet at the intersection tapering to 66-feet at the southern
property line from the west side of the centerline).
9. Existing Access to the Site
The site does not have any delineated access points to Overland Road or Meridian Road. There are
two agricultural accesses located on Meridian Road; one is located approximately in the middle of the
site and one is adjacent to the southern property line.
10. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program
The Overland Road/Meridian Road intersection is programmed in the District's current Capital
Improvements Plan and Five Year Work Program for reconstruction and roadway improvements.
FYWP-04-08: Overland Road and Meridian Road intersection reconstruction: widen and improve the
intersection. Schedule and work will be coordinated with lTD. Project will required a study to look at
the intersection and different alignments. Professional services 2005, right-of-way acquisition 2006,
construction 2007.
CIP2003: Overland Road and Meridian Road intersection: reconstruct intersection with ITD,
anticipated construction 2007.
Desian for the intersection has not been finalized at the time of this staff reDort. A Drelimina/Y desian
for the intersection includes two dedicated left turn lanes onto Meridian Road. a deceleration lane on
Meridian Road. and one dedicated riaht-turn lane onto Overland Road from Meridian Road.
B. Findings for Consideration
1. Right-of-Way
Overland Road
District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on arterial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way
allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot concrete detached sidewalks
and bike lanes.
The intersection of Overland Road and Meridian Road is listed as a proposed project in the District's
currently adopted Five- Year Work Program and in the currently adopted 20-year Capital
Improvements Plan. The right-of-way for the Overland Road/Meridian Road intersection project on
the Overland Road leg has not been acquired. If the right-of-way hasn't been acquired the applicant
should be compensated for the additional right-of-way required for the intersection project. As such,
the applicant may receive reimbursement for dedicated right-of-way from available collected impact
fees or enter into an impact fee offset agreement.
3
,-
The preliminary right-of-way necessary for Overland Road is estimated at 52-feet from centerline
abutting the site. The applicant should work with ACHD Traffic staff and Development staff for the
dedication of additional right-of-way needed for the turn lanes and necessary signal control boxes
and poles.
Meridian Road
Meridian Road (State Highway 69) is under the jurisdiction of Idaho Transportation Department (/TD).
The applicant should coordinate the right-of-way requirements and the proposed deceleration lane
with lTD.
2. Sidewalk
District policy requires 5-foot wide (minimum) concrete sidewalk on all collector roadways and arterial
roadways (7204.6.5).
In accordance with District policy the applicant should be required to construct sidewalk abutting the
frontage of Overland Road. However, this segment of Overland Road will be reconstructed within the
next five years. Due to the preliminary nature of the design, the applicant should road trust for the
sidewalk in lieu of construction so that it may be constructed in its ultimate location with the project.
The applicant is proposing to construct a north-south pathway along the east properly line, and
should work with ACHD Traffic staff and Development staff for the placement and tie-in for the
proposed pathway to the future sidewalk abutting the site.
District policy 7203.6 requires the applicant of a proposed development to make improvements to
existing damaged sidewalk; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused
driveways with standard curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation of pedestrian ramps; pavement
repairs; signs; traffic control devises; and other similar items in order to correct deficiencies or replace
deteriorated facilities.
The applicant should construct a pedestrian ramp onto Overland Road to reduce the conflict with
pedestrianlvehicular traffic. The pedestrian ramp should be constructed in compliance with ADA
standards. Coordinate the construction and location with District staff. The pedestrian ramp should be
constructed in compliance with ADA standards. Coordinate the construction and location with District
staff. However, this segment of Overland Road will be reconstructed within the next five years. Due
to the preliminary nature of the design, the applicant should road trust for the pedestrian ramp in lieu
of construction so that it may be constructed in its ultimate location with the project.
3. Public Rights-of.Way Trust Fund
District policy 7203.8 states, if the District determines that is necessary or desirable to defer making
some or all of the improvements described, the developer shall contribute the estimated value of the
improvements to the Public Rights-of-Way Trust Fund.
In lieu of constructing the sidewalk on Overland Road, the applicant should be required to provide a
$2,840.00 deposit to the Public Rights-of-Way Trust Fund for the cost of constructing 5-foot wide
concrete sidewalk for approximately 142-feet abutting the frontage on Overland Road. ($20.00 per
L.F.)
In lieu of constructing the pedestrian ramp on Overland Road, the applicant should be required to
provide a $350.00 deposit to the Public Rights-of-Way Trust Fund for the cost of constructing the
pedestrian ramp.
4
4. Driveways/Collectors and Arterials/Signalized
District policy 72-F4 (1) requires driveways located on arterial roadways near a signalized intersection
to be located a minimum of 440-feet feet from the signalized intersection for a full-access driveway
and a minimum of 220-feet from the signalized intersection for a right-in/right-out only driveway.
The applicant is not proposing to construct any access points on Overland Road; therefore none
should be approved with this application.
The applicant is proposing to construct two access points onto Meridian Road (State Highway 69).
)l>- Proposed driveway #1 is to be located approximately 495-feet south of the near edge of the
intersection of Overland Road.
)l>- Proposed driveway # 2 is to be located approximately 620-feet south of driveway # 1
(measured from near edge to near edge).
Meridian Road (State Highway 69) is under the jurisdiction of Idaho Transportation Department (I TO).
Application materials should be submitted to ITO for review and requirements of that Department and
the applicant should submit to the District a letter from ITD regarding said requirements prior to
District approval of the final plat or issuance of a building permit (or other required permits),
whichever occurs first. The applicant may contact District III Traffic Engineer at 334-8341.
A Transportation Impact Study (TIS) may be required at the discretion of the Idaho Transportation
Department's Traffic Engineer if the proposed development meets criteria presented in ITD's
Requirements for Transportation Impact Study, April 1995. A TIS is not required if the development
generates less than 25 new peak hour trips on a state highway and the total added volume will be
less than 250 vehicles per day. A "full TIS is required whenever a proposed development will
generate 100 or more new peak hour trips; or when the total volume expected to be added to the
state highway system by the development equals or exceeds 1000 vehicles per day. A "minor TIS is
required for developments that will generate between 25 and 99 new peak hour trips or will add from
250 to 999 vehicles per day For further information on the TIS, contact the District Permit Officer at
334-8341.
The applicant is proposing to provide access to the adjoining parcel (parcel # 1) to the south through
a parking lot connection located at the southern property line, approximately 240-feet east of Meridian
Road:
>- The adjoining parcel# 1 is 1.80-acres, zoned RUT (Rural Urban Transition); Parcel # 1 has an
existing single-family dwelling with a residential driveway located approximately 45-feet south
of the southern property line of the proposed development site. This parcel has approximately
150-feet of frontage on Meridian Road and approximately 541-feet of frontage on East
CaldefWood Drive.
>- District staff is supportive of the parking lot connection to the parcel to the south.
)l>- Adjoining parcel #2 is 0.36-acres, zoned R-4 (Single-Family Residential) a platted lot in Elk
Run Subdivision: parcel #2 has as existing single-family dwelling with a residential driveway
located on East Calderwood Drive approximately 571-feet east of the near edge of pavement
of Meridian Road.
5
Successive Driveways
District policy 72-F5, requires driveways located on collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of
35 to align or offset a minimum of 150-feet from any existing or proposed driveway.
Driveway Construction
Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked
onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, the applicant should be required to
pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the
roadway and install pavement tapers with 15-foot radii abutting the existing roadway edge.
District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes over 1,000 vehicles
to a maximum width of 35-feet. Most commercial driveways will be constructed as curb-cut type
facilities if located on local streets. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for
driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways.
5. Center Turn Lanes and Tapers
District policy 7204.8 states, if traffic volumes from a proposed development warrant turn lanes into or
out of the site, the applicant may be required to dedicate additional right-of-way to accommodate the
improvements. The applicant will not be compensated by ACHD for the dedication of additional right-
of-way and pavement widening.
District policy 3004.1, 72-F8, MSHTO guidelines and the MUTCD guidelines require the turn lane to
be constructed to provide a minimum of 100-feet of storage with shadow tapers for both the approach
and departure directions. Coordinate the design of the turn lane with District staff.
District policy 3004.1 and MSHTO Guidelines require tapers to be constructed on a varying basis
contingent upon the posted speed limit. Coordinate the design of the taper with District staff.
As indicated on the site plan the applicant is proposing to construct a deceleration lane on Meridian
Road with the project. The applicant should contact the Idaho Transportation Department (lTD) for
the scope of work for the Overland Road/Meridian Road intersection project.
The applicant should coordinate with ACHD Traffic staff and Development Services staff for the
scope of work for the Overland Road/Meridian Road intersection project. The applicant should be
required to meet all AA SH TO and MUTCD guidelines.

Request for Reconsideration of Commission Action
1. Request for Reconsideration of Commission Action: A Commissioner, a member of ACHD
staff or any other person objecting to any final action taken by the Commission may request
reconsideration of that action, provided the request is not for a reconsideration of an action previously
requested to be reconsidered, an action whose provisions have been partly and materially carried
out, or an action that has created a contractual relationship with third parties.
a. Only a Commission member who voted with the prevailing side can move for reconsideration,
but the motion may be seconded by any Commissioner and is voted on by all Commissioners
present.
If a motion to reconsider is made and seconded it is subject to a motion to postpone to a
certain time.
b. The request must be in writing and delivered to the Secretary of the Highway District no later
than 3:00 p.m. on the day prior to the Commission's next scheduled regular meeting following
the meeting at which the action to be reconsidered was taken. Upon receipt of the request,
the Secretary shall cause the same to be placed on the agenda for that next scheduled
regular Commission meeting.
c. The request for reconsideration must be supported by written documentation setting forth new
facts and information not presented at the earlier meeting, or a changed situation that has
developed since the taking of the earlier vote, or information establishing an error of fact or
law in the earlier action. The request may also be supported by oral testimony at the meeting.
d. If a motion to reconsider passes, the effect is the original matter is in the exact position it
occupied the moment before it was voted on originally. It will normally be returned to ACHD
staff for further review. The Commission may set the date of the meeting at which the matter
is to be returned. The Commission shall only take action on the original matter at a meeting
where the agenda notice so provides.
e. At the meeting where the original matter is again on the agenda for Commission action,
interested persons and ACHD staff may present such written and oral testimony as the
President of the Commission determines to be appropriate, and the Commission may take
any action the majority of the Commission deems advisable.
f. If a motion to reconsider passes, the applicant may be charged a reasonable fee, to cover
administrative costs, as established by the Commission.
