Meridian, Idaho City Clerk Office
Dear Sonya:
In regards to the above referenced project, please review the following information for
your consideration in response to the conditions of approval for the final plat.
Devon Park I subdivision was submitted to accommodate the future right of way taking
for the public streets. I expanded the subdivision to include the future commercial lots. I
understand that our zoning approvals consist of only conceptual approvals, a detailed
conditional use will be required before any building permits will be issued. The only "
exception is Lot I Block 2, we have a detailed conditional use approval to construct three
office buildings.;
Please review the attached landscape plan and the letter dated August 12, 2002 in regards
to the landscaping for Devon Park I subdivision, It was my understanding that the
landscaping required for the Devin Park -I would include the frontage along Fairview and
along the public street` frontages. We are currently negotiating with two of our
commercial anchor tenants, the location and size of the buildings may change from the
conceptual approval. We are planning on submitting for detailed approval in the near
future. The landscape buffering around the commercial, development would potentially
have to be partially removed to allow for future construction. I would like to request that
our landscape buffering as required be installed in phases to accommodate future
planning changes and construction.
I. Phase I would include the Fairview Avenue frontage, North Retail Avenue
and East Carol Street. The work would be completed along with the
construction of the roads. We would like to start work in July 2003.
2.' Phase II would include Block 2 Lot i in conjunction with the construction of
the office buildings, Construction to begin in August 2003.
3. Phase III would include the required_ buffering along Settler's Village, that
would include Lots 3 and 4 in Block 3 of Devon Park. The work would be
completed upon construction of the commercial development. Construction to
begin Spring of 2004.
