CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENTS STAFF REPORT
The Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use of this property as Old Town. The current
zoning district of the proposed plat is O-T (Old Town District). The Comprehensive Plan allows
for a variety of residential uses, including reuse of existing buildings for residential uses. The
Thornton Four Plex received conditional use approval June 18, 2002. Therefore, the proposed
short plat complies with the Comprehensive Plan.
B. Public services are available or can be made available and are adequate to accommodate
the proposed development;
Staff finds that public services are available to accommodate the development. Water and sewer
services have already been installed with the Resolution Subdivision improvements. Fire, police,
solid waste and irrigation services are all adequate. The adjacent public roadways have been
completed to the required design and approach standards.
C. The plat is in conformance with scheduled public improvements in accord with the City's
capital improvements program;
Staff finds that the subdivision will not require the expenditure of capital improvement funds. All
sewer and water extension for this area were planned to be developer driven. All required
utilities are either in place or will be the responsibility of the developer.
D. There is public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed development;
Staff finds that the development will not require major expenditures for providing supporting
services. The developer and/or future unit owners will finance the extension of sewer, water,
utilities and pressurized irrigation to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the
future tenants will be fire and police services.
E. The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare; and
Staff does not believe that any additional traffic or noise will be generated with the approval of
this plat; the approval for the subject buildings was previously granted. This subdivision will not
be detrimental to the general welfare of the public in the surrounding area. Staff finds that the
subject subdivision will not involve uses that will create nuisances that would be detrimental to
the public health, safety or general welfare.
F. The development preserves significant natural, scenic or historic features.
Staff is not aware of any significant natural, scenic or historic features associated with the
development of this site that the Director and City Engineer should be aware of.
