outside.
5. Operational fire hydrants and temporary or permanent street signs are required
before combustible construction begins. UFC 901.4.2 & 901.3
6. Two points of access will be required for the project or portions of the project
that serve over 50 homes. This will be a concern the way the project is phased in the
early stages of development.
7. Commercial and office occupancies will require a fire-flow consistent
with the Uniform Fire Code to service the proposed project. Fire hydrants shall
be placed an average of 400’ apart. 1997 UFC Appendix III-A
RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL FOR APPROVAL OF ANNEXATION & ZONING FOR
PARAMOUNT SUBDIVISION BY PARAMOUNT, LLC – AZ-03-006 - Page 14
8. Multi-family residential on the site will require a fire-flow of 1500 GPM
plus the amount required by the fire sprinkler demand.
9. All access roads within the project shall have a clear driving surface with a
minimum
width of 20’ available at all times. Restricted parking on some streets and access
points to fire lanes may be required to maintain a clear emergency access which is
20’ wide. UFC 902.2.2.1
10. The phasing plan may require that any roadway greater than 150’ in length
that is not provided with an outlet shall be required to have a approved turn
around.
11. The proposed 1107 unit subdivision with an estimated 2.9 residents per
household would have a total estimated population of 3,210 residents at build out.
This will generate an estimated 133 calls for service based on historical trends.
The commercial, schools and churches will have an unknown transient population
and will have an unknown impact on Meridian Fire Department call volumes.
The Meridian Fire Department has experienced 2069 responses in the year 2000
and 2251 calls for service in 2001. According to a report completed by Fire &
Emergency Services Consulting Group in February of 2000 our requests for
service are projected to reach 2800 in the year 2005 and 3800 by the year 2010.
12. The proposed project lies on the edge of the five-minute response zone
goal. Achievement of this goal is subject to budgetary constraints and is intended
to enhance the probability of a favorable outcome on a request for Basic Life
Support. The budget constraints are typically defined as capital outlay for
facilities that are located within 1.5 miles from a given location and sufficient
operational funds to staff the facilities.
13. It is requested that building separations be maintained per the Building
Code in Blocks 32, 33, 34, 35,30, 31, 36, 37 to reduce the possibility of fires
being transmitted from house to house.
D. Adopt the Recommendations of Settlers’ Irrigation District as follows:
1. That all irrigation/drainage facilities along with their easements be
protected and continue to function as such. The laterals involved are the
North Slough #2, North Slough, Knight, Lemp, Harrell, Wolf, and Bisby.
2. A license agreements will need to be signed and recorded prior to
construction of any irrigation facilities.
3. All Storm drainage must be retained on-site.

4. Any changes to the existing irrigation system must be approved by
Settlers Irrigation District.
5. The development must supply irrigation access to all lots within the
above-mentioned
subdivision. If the developer
wishes to have Settlers Irrigation
District own, operate, and maintain
the pressure irrigation system and
agreements needs to be in
place prior to the pre-construction
meeting.
