Site Location and Existing Uses
The subject property is an approximate 9.59-acre parcel of land located on the west side of S. Eagle
Road between E. Taconic Drive and E. Lake Hazel Road. The property is currently void of any structural
improvements.
History
On June 23, 2020, the Meridian City Council approved annexation of the property into Meridian City
with an accompanying preliminary plat (H-2020-0030). The preliminary plat was comprised of 42
buildable lots and nine common lots.
The Director approved a two-year time extension (TED-2022-0002) for the plat on June 1, 2022. On
September 10, 2024, the City Council approved another two-year time extension. We (Boise Hunter
Homes) purchased the property this year (2025) and are now moving forward with the final plat for this
subdivision.

Final Plat
The final plat is in substantial conformance with the previously approved preliminary plat. As previously
noted, the preliminary plat was approved for 42 buildable lots and nine common lots. The final plat
contains 36 buildable lots and eight common lots. The general layout of the subdivision remains the
same and no changes were made to the public street or sidewalk dimensions.
The reduction in the number of buildable lots comes from our desire to slightly increase the lot sizes to
match existing lots we have developed within the adjacent Sky Mesa #4 subdivision located directly
to the north of this property. The majority of the lots on the approved preliminary plat were 50 feet wide
and we increased those to 55 feet wide to accommodate a product line we have already established
in this area.
Eight lots (6, 8, 21, 22, 26, 27, 35, 36) will take access from four separate common driveways (Lots 7, 20,
28, 34). The common driveway located on Lot 20 also serves as an emergency vehicle access onto
Eagle Road. Bollards will be placed at the end of the driveway to ensure it is only used as an emergency
vehicle access onto Eagle Road.
Open Space and Amenities
The required open space for this subdivision is 15%, which equates to 1.44 acres. We are providing 1.22
acres of open space which is 12.72%. However, we are annexing this property into the CC&R's of the
Sky Mesa development that is located to the north, west, and south of the property. The Sky Mesa
Development is comprised of three subdivision plats, the Southern Highlands, Sky Mesa, and Sky Mesa
Highlands.
Those three subdivisions are required to have 25.957 acres of open space, and 31.71 acres are
provided for an excess of 5.753 acres of open space.The addition of the McKay Farm subdivision brings
the overall open space provided to 32.92 acres, which is 5.53 acres more than what is required for all
four subdivisions.
Numerous amenities are provided throughout the Sky Mesa development. There are two swimming
pools, with accompanying changing facilities and restrooms, and open air ramadas. A tot lot, paved
basketball court, sports field, swing set, pedestrian pathways, dog waste stations, and a multi-use
pathway. In addition, we are adding a picnic area within the McKay Farm subdivision. Based on the
size of the overall Sky Mesa development we are required to provide 43 points worth of amenities. With
existing amenities within Sky Mesa and the proposed picnic area amenity in McKay Farm, 47 points
worth of amenities are provided.
Conclusion
The Final Plat for the McKay Farm subdivision is in substantial conformance with the previously approved
Preliminary Plat. In addition, by annexing the subdivision into the CC&R's of the Sky Mesa subdivision all
open space and site amenities are in compliance with the current Development Code. We respectfully
request a recommendation of approval for this application.
