Linder Road and W. Ustick Road: Moe: At this time I'd like to open the continued public hearing on AZ 09-005 for JJA Land and start with the staff report, please. Parsons: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. The application before you tonight is an annexation request to zone 5.89 acres of land that's currently in the county zoned RUT, to a C-C zoning district within the city. Back in 2005 this property was part of the north Meridian area comprehensive plan that changed some of those designations up there and so that's when this property's land use designation was changed to mix use community. Looking at the -- the property is located on the northwest corner of Ustick and Linder Road. To the east of the site is vacant or rural residential property zoned RUT. To the south is R-4 -- R-4 zoned property and R-1 Ada County property. To the west is a platted, undeveloped, single family residential known as Windsong Subdivision, zoned R-8. And, again, to the north is rural residential zoned RUT. At this time the applicant is not proposing any development for the property. It is only for annexation at this point. If you look at this here in front of you, you can see there is an existing home on the property and that currently exists still on the property. What has happened to facilitate the annexation is ACHD went in here and acquired the right of way and started construction on that intersection and upon commencement of that road construction they hit their -- the actual well site for the home and so in order for this home to keep functioning as a home they had to hook up to city services and that home is currently connected to water and city sewer and so the applicant worked with ACRD and agrees to annex into the city. Staff is recommending a DA for the site. In your handout tonight I have highlighted some of those DA provisions that we are proposing. Again, we don't have a concept plan to view before you tonight and that's kind of a tough thing to swallow, considering the zoning that we are -- that they are requesting for the site, so hopefully -- that's why I kind of laid out those DA provisions for you to see if you feel they are appropriate, if you think there should be something added, it's at your discretion to do so, to recommend some additional DA provisions. Again, these are what staff is recommending. We have worked with the applicant quite a bit on changing some of those and this has been continuing for a month now and staff and applicant have worked together to tweak some of those DA provisions and we are
