Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Meridian
33 E. Idaho Ave.
Meridian, Idaho 83642
RE: TlrnberfallsSubdivision Variance Request-Letterof Inteait
Dear Mayor and Council;
As representative for Dan Wood, please accept this application for a variance within the proposed
Timberfalls Subdivision, located on the south side of E. Usdck Road, west of Locust Grove Road in
Meridian, Idaho, Section 06, Township 3 North, Range 1 East of the Boise-Meridian. The request is
for a variance to Section 12-4-5 of the Meridian Subdivision Ordinance requiring that blocks shall not
be less than five hundred feet (500') nor more than one thousand feet (1,000') in length.
This letter is included with the application for the variance, together with Sling fees in the sum of
$310.00 and various exhibits.
The applicant is requesting the variance to Section 12-4-5 to allow Block 2 of the preliminary plat to
exceed the one thousand feet (1,000') maximum block length requirement, and 131ock 1 to be less than
the five hundred feet (500') m;rrirm,m block length requirement. The hardship that exists with this
properly that would enable the applicant from complying with the requirements in the Ordinance is a
result of the design of the development with relationship to existing natural topographic constraints,
and previously approved developments on adjacent property. Block 2 is located along Ustick Road
and is bordered by an existing stub street from the Granite Creek Subdivision to the east and main
entrance into TimLberfalls. With the future park azea designed in a central location and because of the
existing slob street location, the breslang up of this block with a street is not practical with this design.
Block 1 has the same constraint that is a result of the existing stub street from Bedford Place
Subdivision to the west and the proposed entrance road to Timberfalls. As a result, Block 1 cannot
meet the current minimum 500 fi;et requirement. With the above described constraints, only with a
major rede~gn would this subdivision be able to meet the requirement of Section 12-4-5.
It is the opinion of the applicant that the liters[ irtterpretation of the provisions of the ordinance would
deprive the applicant rights because the development of the property would be difficult if no flexibility
on block lengths were allowed. An applicant has a right to expect that arty and all required
improvemerrts associated with a development request will benefit the public health, safety, or welfare.
That right would be wmpromised by a literal interpr~ation of the law. Additionally, the wnditions
that exist adjacent to and in the area of the property are not all necessarily conditions that exist as a
result of the applicant's own actions. Further, granting the variance wo~ sin rights, which
would be afforded, to others in the same situation. Matry previous subdivisions in the city have been
granted similar variance requests with similar circumstances that exist on this property. The variance
would convenience the applicant, but to provide for the same ability to develop the land with the
specified limitations that other property owners in the district could achieve without such variances.
The variance would not constitute any special privilege for the property owner that could not be sought
by owners of other land. The granting of the requested variance will not be detiimemal to the Public's
welfare or injuripus to other property in the area of the proposed plat. ff approved, the granting of the
variance would not be in conflict with the inter of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan, which
recognizes, among other things, that certain circumstances exist, and that land development regulations
shall be revised from time to time.
Therefore, we would request at this time approval of the above described variances to the Meridian
Zoning Ordinance as it relates to the Timberfatls Subdivision applications currently being processed by
your staff.
Sincerely,
~ >,~0
