Re: Bear Creek Subdivision No. 6 -Variance City Clerk Office
Request for a Variance from Meridian City Code (MCC) 12-4-5 (Block Lengths),
to allow Blocks 7 & 22 to exceed the 1000-foot maximum block length, within
the proposed Bear Creek Subdivision No. 6, by Bear Creek, LLC
(File No. VAR-03-015).
The Planning and Zoning staff has reviewed the applicant's submittal, and we offer the following
comments and recommendations:
APPLICATION SUMMARY
The applicant, Bear Creek, LLC, has requested a variance from section 12-4-5 of the Meridian
City Code (MCC), which prohibits residential block lengths from exceeding 1,000 feet.
Block 22 of the proposed Bear Creek Subdivision No. 6 exceeds the 1,000-foot maximum block
length. The applicant also applied for a variance on Block 7, however the P&Z Department's
new Director has implemented a new definition for calculating block lengths. Instead of
measuring along the rear lot lines around the entire block from street to street, blocks are now
measured along the longest distance of a block, in a straight line, from one end of the block to
the opposite. Under this new method, Block 22 still exceeds 1,000 feet.
The original preliminary plat for Bear Creek Subdivision included a cul-de-sac at the eastern end
of S. Ice Bear Way, and there was no road connection to the property to the south. Now that Bear
Creek, LLC has obtained the narrow strip of land to the south (formerly known as Kodiak) they
have eliminated the cul-de-sac to provide a street connection to the south which connects to W.
Cub Street, the existing stub-street.
The applicant has stated in their application that they cannot comply with the ordinance due to
existing conditions (street configurations) approved in previous phases of Bear Creek
Subdivision. The applicant states that creating stub-streets to break up the proposed block
lengths is a hardship due to the fact that they would not connect to anything in the future.
Furthermore, the applicant will be eliminating a potentially hazardous intersection on SH 69.

LOCATION
The property is located on the west side of S. Meridian Road, approximately '/z mile south of
Overland Road.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
North: Bear Creek Subdivision, zoned R-4
West: Bear Creek Subdivision, zoned R-4
East: Edmunds Subdivision, zoned RUT (Ada County)
South: Vacant land owned by the Valley Shepard Church, zoned R-8
OWNER OF RECORD
The property owner of record is Bear Creek, LLC and they have provided notarized consent for
submission of this application.
REQUIRED FINDINGS
According to Ordinance 11-18-1, Variances, the Council may authorize in specific cases a
variance from the terms of either the Zoning or Subdivision Ordinance. Specifically, the
Ordinance lists the following Findings (MCC11-18-3), all of which must be determined before
granting a variance:
A. That there are such special circumstances or conditions affecting the
property that the strict application of the provisions of this Title would
clearly be impracticable or unreasonable;
The existing Bear Creek Subdivision provided a stub street along the west end
of the proposed subdivision and did not provide any stub streets in the north east
corner of the proposed subdivision. The property to the south of the proposed
subdivision is owned by the Valley Shepard Nazarene Church, and the applicant
has provided astub-street to this property. The property line to the east borders
SH 69 and staff supports limiting access to the highway from within the
proposed subdivision.
Therefore, based on the surrounding property uses and existing street
configurations, staff fmds that special circumstances exist that make strict
application of this title impractical and unreasonable.

Bear Creek Sub 6 VAR
Mayor and Council
Hearing Date: June 10, 2003
Page 3
The applicant has provided one (1) stub street to the church property to the
south. Staff fmds that requiring additional stubs and/or connections would not
be reasonable or practical.
B. That strict compliance with the requirements of this Title would result in
extraordinary hardship to the owner, subdivider or developer because of
unusual topography, the nature or condition of adjacent development, other
physical conditions or other conditions that make strict compliance with this
Title unreasonable under the circumstances, or that the conditions and
requirements of this Title will result in inhibiting the achievements or the
objectives of this Title;
As noted above, staff finds that strict compliance with the City's Ordinances
would not be of benefit to the City, the surrounding property owners or the
applicant. Based on the nature and location of stub streets within the adjacent
development, staff finds that strict compliance to the MCC 12-4-5 would be
unreasonable and would not result in inhibiting the objectives of the MCC.
C. That the granting of the specified variance will not be detrimental to the
public's welfare or injurious to other property in the area in which the
property is situated;
Staff anticipates that the variance will not be detrimental to the public's welfare
or injurious to other properties in the area.
The City Council should listen to any public testimony offered concerning
whether or not the surrounding property owners feel that the requested variance
will negatively affect their properties.
D. That such variance will not have the effect of altering the interest and
purpose of this Title and the Meridian Comprehensive Plan.
Staff finds that the issuance of the variance to the 1,000-foot maximum block
length within the proposed Bear Creek Subdivision IVo. 6 does not have the effect
of altering the purpose and interest of the Zoning Ordinance. The proposed
subdivision increases interconnectivity (by eliminating a cul-de-sac) and increases
safety by eliminating a potentially dangerous intersection on the highway.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of this variance request.

RECEIVED

City Of Meridian
City Clerk Office
TO: Mayor, City Council & Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission
FROM: Joseph Silva, Deputy Chief, Fire Prevention
SUBJECT: Bear Creek No. 6 VAR 03-015
The following will be the requirements and/or concerns to provide minimum levels of fire
protection for the proposed project:
1. That afire-flow of 1,000 gallons per minute be available to service the entire project.
Fire hydrants shall be placed an average of 500' apart. 1997 UFC Appendix III-A
2. Operational fire hydrants and temporary or permanent street signs are required
before combustible constnzction begins. UFC 901.4.2 & 901.3
3. Acceptance of water supply for fire protection is contingent upon acceptance of the
water system by the City of Meridian for water quality.
4. All radii shall be 28' inside and 48' outside radius.
5. The proposed project lies outside 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.
6. 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, this is up from 2069 responses in the year 2000.
7. Any dead-end exceeding 150' in length as the result of a phasing process will require
an approved turn-around.
8. The Meridian Fire Department has no objection to the request to exceed the 1,000
block length.

a. North: Bear Creek Subdivision No.
b. South: Undeveloped parcel
c. East: Meridian Road
d. West: Bear Creek Subdivision No:
7. Roadway Improvements Adjacent To and Near the Site, Right-of-Way
West Cub Street was constructed as a stub street with Bear Creek Subdivision No.1 and was
constructed as a 36-feet street section with curb, gutter and sidewalk within 50-feet of right-of-way.
South Ice Bear Way was constructed as a stub street with Bear Creek Subdivision No.5 and was
constructed as a 36-feet street section with curb, gutter and sidewalk within 50-feet of right-of-way.

line.
10. Site History
On July 7, 1999, the ACHD Commission reviewed and approved Bear Creek Subdivision, a 326-lot
residential subdivision to the west of this site.
On October 11, 2000, the ACHD Commission reviewed and approved MAZ00-0018, a rezone from
RT to R-8 and annexation into the City of Meridian. ACHD has not approved a development plan on
that parcel. The conceptual plan is for a church that will have recreational facilities along their north
property line and single family residential along their south property line.
On October 24, 2001, the ACHD Commission reviewed and approved Kodiak Subdivision a 28-lot
residential subdivision on 5.4-acres.
11. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program
This location is not programmed into the Districts current Capital Improvements Plan and/or Five
Year Work Program for reconstruction or any roadway improvements. State Highway 69/Meridian
Road is under the jurisdiction of Idaho Transportation Department (!TD).
12. Letter of Intent
The proposed church lot is not to be developed with the residential portion of this development, but
will be developed in the future when the Church to the south is constructed.
B. Findings for Consideration
Right-of-Way
District policy 7204.4.1 and Figure 72-F1A requires 50-feet of right-of-way on local streets. This right-
of-way allows for the construction of a 2-lane roadway with curb, gutter and 5-foot wide concrete
sidewalks.
2. Street Sections
District policy 7204.4.2 states, "developments with any buildable lot that is less that 1.5-acres in size
will typically provide streets having a minimum pavement width of 32-feet with curb, gutter and
sidewalks. The total street width shall be 36-feet from back-of-curb to back-of-curb. Variations of this
width may be allowed, depending on traffic volumes forecast to be generated by the development.
Concrete sidewalks shall be a minimum of 5-feet in width unless they are separated from the curb 5-
feet or more in which case the sidewalk shall be a minimum of 4-feet in width.
The applicant is proposing to extend West Cub Street that was constructed with Bear Creek
Subdivision No. f. Staff is supportive of the connection. The applicant is proposing to extend West
Cub Street as a 36-feet street section with curb, gutter and sidewalk within 50-feet ofright-of--way.
The applicant is proposing to extend South Ice Bear Way that was constructed with Bear Creek
Subdivision No. 5. Staff is supportive of the connection. The applicant is proposing to extend South
Ice Bear Way as a 36-feet street section with curb, gutter and sidewalk within 50.feet ofright-of--way
3. Sidewalk
District policy requires 5-foot wide (minimum) concrete sidewalk on all local streets, except those in
rural developments with net densities of one dwelling unit per acre or less (7204.4.7).
District policy 7203.6 requires the applicant of a proposed development to make improvements to
existing damaged sidewalk; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused
driveways with standard curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation of pedestrian ramps; pavement
repairs; signs; traffic control devises; and other similar items in order to correct deficiencies or replace
deteriorated facilities.
4. Roadway Offsets
District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 125-feet from
another local roadway (measured centerline to centerline).
5. Stub Streets
District policy 7203.5.1 and 7205.5 requires stub streets to provide intro-neighborhood circulation and
to provide access to adjoining parcels. District policy also requires temporary turnarounds with a
temporary easement provided to the District at the end of stub streets that serve more than one lot, or
are greater than 150-feet in length with a sign at the terminus of the roadway stating that, "THIS
ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE".
The applicant is proposing to construct one-stub street with the development, South Alaska Way is
proposed to be constructed as 36-foot street sections with curb, gutter and sidewalks within 50-feet of
right-of-way:
- South Alaska Way is proposed to extend to the southwest property line approximately 1,085-
feet west of Meridian Road. Staff is supportive of this Iocetion. Due to the fact that this stub
street is less than 150-feet in length, the applicant should not be required to construct a
temporary turnaround at the terminus of the roadway. The applicant should install a sign at the
terminus of the roadway stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE".
C. Special Recommendation to ITD and the City of Meridian:
The applicant should be required to construct a 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk on Meridian Road (SH-
69) abutting the developed portion of the site. Coordinate the location of the sidewalk with ITD staff.
2. The applicant is not proposing any driveway locations on Meridian Road (SH-69). The applicant and
ITD should consider a shared access with the parcel to the south (MAZ-00-018) for the lot (lot 9,
Block 22) that fronts Meridian Road (SH-69). When the District receives a formal application for lot
9, Block 22 the District will review and approve driveway locations in accordance with the policies and
guidelines that are in effect at that time.
D. Site Specific Conditions of Approval

of fact or law, abused discretion or acted arbitrarily and capriciously in the interpretation or
enforcement of the ACHD Policy Manual.
a. Filing Fee: The Commission may, from time to time, set reasonable fees to be charged
the applicant for the processing of appeals, to cover administrative costs.
b. Initiation: An appeal is initiated by the filing of a written notice of appeal with the Secretary
of Highway Systems, which must be filed within ten (10) working days from the date of the
decision that is the subject of the appeal. The notice of appeal shall refer to the decision
being appealed, identify the appellant by name, address and telephone number and state
the grounds for the appeal. The grounds shall include a written summary of the provisions
of the policy relevant to the appeal and/or the facts and law relied upon and shall include a
written argument in support of the appeal. The Commission shall not consider a notice of
appeal that does not comply with the provisions of this subsection.
c. Time to Reply: The ROWDS Manager shall have ten (10) working days from the date of
the filing of the notice of appeal to reply to the notice of the appeal, and may during such
time meet with the appellant to discuss the matter, and may also consider and/or modify
the decision that is being appealed. A copy of the reply, and any modifications to the
