River Valley Phase 3 Conditional Use Permit Narrative
Bach Land and Development, LLC ("Bach") is the owner of a 2.5-acre parcel located at
2480 North Eagle Road, Meridian, ID 83646. Bach is requesting approval of a conditional use
permit alongside development agreement modification which accompanies this application to
allow the construction of phase 3 of the Regency at River Valley apartments. This community
will consist of two four-story 44-unit apartment communities to be constructed on the following
parcels. S 1104233975, S 1104234010, and R7476320020. The total unit count is 88 units.
The Development Agreements in question are:
• SGI-12-010—CC Approval 01/15/2013
o Date of Recordation: 01/16/13
o Record Number: #113005608

o Date of Recordation: 05/28/2020
o Record Number: #2020-062947
By the approval of a conditional use permit, Bach and the City of Meridian will be able to
collaborate on a project designed to meet the community's growing need for additional housing.
Bach aims to develop an apartment complex that is practical, attractive, and beneficial to the
residents. Our company values its ongoing relationship with the City of Meridian, and we are
committed to working together to address concerns and ensure that the project complements and
enhances the city. We are long-term owners of all of our projects as seen in phase 1 and 2 of our
Regency at River Valley community.
Bach's proposed development involves expanding the existing Regency at River Valley
Community, which has enjoyed a 94% occupancy rate for over five years. The expansion
consists of adding an additional phase that is comprised of two separate buildings with a
combined unit count of 88 apartment units; the two buildings will be built concurrently. The
development will provide additional housing options in the Treasure Valley area.
Bach has been in the land development and multi-family housing business for over 49
years. As a family-owned and operated company, Bach develops, owns, and operates apartment
complexes across Utah, Montana, Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, and Hawaii. Currently, Bach owns
and manages 15 apartment communities containing over 3,600 units and 133 townhomes, with
many properties having been in operation for one to 25 years.
The preliminary conceptual site plan included with this submission is intended to serve as
a foundation for constructive dialogue with City departments and stakeholders. We recognize
that a collaborative planning process is essential to ensure compatibility with existing
infrastructure, alignment with planning goals, and responsiveness to community needs.
