Comments:
A park is proposed as part of this development. Once built, the "Nearest public school" checkmark
above will change to green "Improves performance". Coordinate with the City of Meridian, the Ada
County Highway District, and the Idaho Transportation Department for best practices on access
management.
Who we are: The Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (COMPASS) is the metropolitan
planning organization for Ada and Canyon Counties. This review evaluates whether land developments
are consistent with Communities in Motion, the regional long-range transportation plan for Ada and
Canyon Counties. This checklist is not intended to be prescriptive, but rather a guidance document. Past
checklists are available online. See the Development Review User Guide for more information on the
red, yellow, and green checklist thresholds.

Complete Network Appendix
Checkmarks (J) below indicate suggested changes to a site plan, based on the COMPASS
Complete Network Policy (No. 2022-01). Both the Complete Network Policy and site-specific
suggestions are intended to better align land use with identified transportation uses in the
corridor. Please see the Complete Network map for primary and secondary uses for roadways
(minor arterial and above) in Ada and Canyon Counties.
Corridor Name: Amity Road
Primary Use: N/A
Secondary Use: N/A
Land Uses to Support Bicycle and Pedestrian Transportation
Provide sidewalks and pathways between horizontal mixed use areas to promote walking and
✓ biking between areas.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Infrastructure
v/ Provide sidewalks, crosswalks, and micropaths to connect destinations
Access Management
✓ Space access points (driveways or cross streets) to increase the distance between potential
conflict points
Provide more access on lower functionally classified roads, such as collectors, and less on arterials,
✓ to facilitate efficient and safe through movement
✓ Provide cross or shared access to reduce the need for excessive access on major roads
✓ Ensure access points are designed with a turning radius that accommodates freight access where
appropriate
✓ Separate freight movement from customer movement by locating loading bays on the back side
rather than the street side
✓ Provide stub roads to help enable future connections between properties and reduce the need for
access to high-speed, high-volume roadways
✓ Provide adequate driveways and drive-through queues to ensure that when a vehicle leaves a
roadway it does not affect traffic on the roadway or access to businesses
More information is available in the COMPASS Access Mana_aement Toolkit and the COMPASS Access
Management Business Guide.
Parking Management
Provide shared parking between multiple users or destinations that have different peak periods.
✓ For example, office buildings traditionally need day-time parking while restaurants need space
later in the evening.
Improve walking and cycling infrastructure to make them feasible alternatives to driving and
✓ parking
Fiscal Impact Analysis
Below are the expected revenues and costs to local governments from this project. The purpose
of this analysis is to help the public, stakeholders, and the decision-makers better manage
growth.
Capital and operating expenditures are determined based on service and infrastructure needs,
including persons per household, student generation rates, lot sizes, street frontages, vehicle
trip and trip adjustment factors, average trip lengths, construction values, income, discretionary
spending, and employment densities.
Net Fiscal Impact by Agency
