Wiebe, E.I.T., J-U-B ENGINEERS, Inc. Date: March 17, 1995 STRASSER FARMS SUBDIVISION NO. 2 consists of one single-family residential lot on approximately 1.0 acre and one 6.8 acre lot left undeveloped, for a total acreage of 7.8 acres. The overall density of the development will be 0.25 lots per acre. The current zoning of the parcel is RT. A request to rezone the property to an R4 zoning has been ~- submitted. The concept is to split off one acre containing a home and out-buildings. This will allow financing for the sale of the property. Rezoning both parcels to R4 will allow for future development. The developer will convey additional right-of-way to the Ada County Highway District as required to obtain 45 feet of right-of-way south of the centerline of Ustick Road and west of the centerline of Meridian Road. The developer will also convey the land required to create a 30-foot radius right-of-way curve at the intersection of Ustick Road and Meridian Road. These right-of-way widths will accommodate any future improvements to the roads. The developer does not intend to construct road improvements along Ustick Road at this time. Curb, gutter, and sidewalk have previously been constructed along Meridian Road. Domestic water for this subdivision will be provided by the City of Meridian with irrigation water being supplied by the Nampa and Meridian Irrigation District via the Onweiler Lateral. A surface water irrigation system will be developed, operated and maintained by the owner. Sewage disposal will be supplied by the City of Meridian. Ada County has experienced substantial population growth over the recent years. Population estimates vary, but growth is expected to continue into the next century with substantial numbers being added to the western portion of the County. The Strasser Farms Subdivision No. 2 will help to accommodate this growth when it is further developed in the future. f: \projects\1895Tadmin\nartive2.doc ~~ ~O~ ~".

Tolsma: Second Kingsford: Moved by Max, second by Ron to amended ordinance #699 with suspension of the rules, roll call vote. ROLL CALL VOTE: Morrow -Yea, Yerrington -Yea, Corrie -Yea, Tolsma -Yea MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #5: FINAL PLAT: STRASSER FARMS SUBDIVISION NO. 2 BY ROBERT STRASSER: Kingsford: Does the Council have any questions on that? Morrow: I had some questions on Bruce's comments in terms of, this plat is apparently outside the city limits, it is in the County. My question is and they are requesting a subdivision and they are requesting water is that correct. Bruce's comments indicate that a request for municipal services outside the City limits of the City of Meridian must be approved by the City Council. Assessment fees for sewer and water service would be double the current rate charged a single user within the City limits. Kingsford: Mr. Strasser is that correct? Are you asking for city utilities? Strasser: (Inaudible) Kingsford: You are aware and I think were made aware at that time were you not that being outside the City the hook up fees are double, the user fees are the same as everyone else but the hook up fees are double? Strasser: Yes, currently one of the tots has already been hooked up to the sewer. The other lots have been provided with city water and city sewer to the lots but nothing and we are not really going to be using anything different than we are currently using at this time. Kingsford: But you are aware that as those lots are built on when the permit fit, when the permit is picked up you will have to pay a double fee for those? Strasser: Yes Morrow. I guess my last question would be is it not possible for this ground to be annexed, Meridian City Council June 6, 1995 Page 7 it is not contiguous to the City? Strasser: Nothing contiguous at this time. • Morrow. Okay and there is apparently a piece of property between Lansbury Subdivision and where you guys are. Strasser: There are 2 pieces. Morrow: That are not within the City. Thank you. Corrie: Mr. Mayor, I have some questions, this is a request for a rezone of the property to R4, right now you are just asking for 2 lots to be zoned R4. Strasser: Yes Corrie: Now you are going to later put 4 homes to the acre, how are you doing this? Strasser: At this time we are not going to make any changes to the land in any way shape or form. The purpose for the rezone and the split was to satisfy the bank so we can sell the property. They vwn't loan on an 8 acre piece so they will only loan on 5 acres or less. So we broke off one acre in order to be able to satisfy that for the buyer. He is going to make no changes in the existing land or anything else. We left it that way so that in the event somebody does want to make a change they have to come back through this action and through this course so that you people have a chance to review anything that is done at that time. Corrie: Okay, so the status quo is staying the same as it is, there is not going to be 28 homes in there without our approval down the line. This is a concern that some of the people out there had at this point. Strasser: Right nothing is going to change. Corrie: Thank you Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I have a question, how can the City of Meridian zone something without annexing it? Kingsford: It is a zoning change with Ada County. We have to approve that to Ada County development services. i Meridian City Council June 6, 1995 Page 8 • Corrie: Is that not a mis-Women saying the final plat, they are really not platting, they are platting 2 lots. Kingsford: As I look at this now Mr. Strasser if it would be your desire you are contiguous. You have some property then that separates it that is not included in this is that right? Strasser: I didn't know that anything was in the City. Kingsford: Take a look at this if you would, which property are you talking about here right now, this piece. This is in the City, no that is right we provided them services. So is this your property as well? Strasser: (Inaudible) Kingsford: Okay, so you are not contiguous then. Again what you are being asked to do is to okay this through Ada County. Morrow. So the City's only interest if I understand you correctly at this point in time is should Mr. Strasser or the gentlemen buying the one piece in the corner to request sewer and water hook up which is available, they will pay double fees. Other than that our only assignment here tonight is to give our blessing to Ada County that this can occur and we don't have a problem with it. Strasser: If 1 might just for clarification on my part and JUB's item #4 about deleting the domestic water service (inaudible) on this if we delete that from the final plat than we can't get past the health services. We need that in order to be able to split it. So basically I am asking also that you give us your okay and that you virould sign off should someone in the future build a home on either side that they could attach to the City sewer and water. Which would be the proper thing to do anyway. Kingsford: Gary, could you explain note 4 there? Smith: By State statute I believe it is the code requires when in the city limits or within a water sewer district that that note be attached to the plat. Basically what that notes says on the plat and I will read it to you,"all lots on this plat are eligible to receive domestic water service in the City of Meridian, Idaho, municipal water system. Further the City of Meridian, Idaho has agreed in writing to serve all lots within this plat with domestic water." The reason that note was written the way it was is because that approval is a special approval because they are outside the city limits, special approval by the City Council. I don't know that approving the plat as such approves it for connection to the city system because it is outside the city limits. I guess if the Council wants to approve that connection • • Meridian City Council June 6, 1995 Page 9 for service at this point that it could be left on the plat. Kingsford: That is your desire? Strasser: Yes, that way we can go on and go ahead with the next step and get it through health services. Without city sewer they are going to tell us that we can't do this. Kingsford: I think what you need to do then is actually to make application to the City to hook to sewer and water and I think we can act on this this at this point but t think you are going to have to ask for that approval. Strasser: The one piece already has been. Kingsford: I was thinking that I remembered that. Strasser: We asked for that and we got and it is hooked up and inspected and approved by the City. Smith: That was the sewer on the smaller lot is that correct? Strasser: Yes Kingsford: What he is saying is everything on that plat by that note being on there said it is hooked up. We would need to give approval to that to be on the plat. Strasser: There is a 4 inch and a 2 inch water service to the other lot, the larger lot. Smith: We provided the stubs just so that you didn't need to tear up the street to get that put in, but we did that to all the properties along Meridian Road whether they were in the City or in the County. Strasser: Whatever it is you need is fine with me, I will do whatever is required to make that happen. Kingsford: I think there is just an application that you fill out with the City Clerk requesting that. Strasser: Are there fees that need to be paid at this time? Kingsford: You pay those fees at the time of the building permit or actual connection. • Meridian City Council June 6, 1995 Page 10 Smith: Just a request letter is all we have been asking for from the property owner. Crookston: Mr. Mayor, I would think that it would be appropriate to state on the plat that they will have to pay double connection fees so that a person looking at the plat will know. If the property is in fact not annexed by the city. Kingsford: Do you want to give your speech Gary on not putting too much stuff on the plat? Which I agree with that too. Smith: There isn't a lot of information on this plat I guess the note could be added. It is not going #o encumber the plat to any great degree. It is an ordinance item but Wayne is right if somebody looks at the plat they may not understand that there is a double assessment fee. And on the sewer particularly that could have an impact. Kingsford: If we did that I think it would mitigate the request for hooking to the city sewer and water because that would be obvious on the plat. Let's do that and make it a requirement a note on the plat. Is there a motion to that effect? Morrow. I have a question, if we are going to make that a note on the plat do we also write in that note until such time the property is annexed? Do you put some sort of sunset clause on the double hook up fee issue? Because once it becomes part of the City and the double hook up fee goes away is that correct? Smith: That is correct. Kingsford: It just needs to be worded in such a fashion as long as it is outside the City of Meridian there be a double hook up fee. However you want to put that you send that along to Development services and request that on the plat. That is probably better yet, approve it conditioned upon that being on the plat. Morrow: So basically what we are doing is we are making a motion to recommend approval of the Strasser Farm Subdivision No. 2 to Ada County Development Services subject to the plat containing the phrase that double hook up fees will be required until such time the property becomes part of the City of Meridian or annexed to the City of Meridian. Kingsford: Well, in fact I can see an attorney dealing with that. If you leave it like they have put it then what they are going to say is they want a refund when it gets annexed. Morrow: Well, they have already paid the one, so it is just the second parcel that it is a question. • Meridian City Council June 6, 1995 Page 11 Kingsford: This can't be as hard as we are making it. Smith: Mr. Mayor can we just make the note refer to the Ordinance so the people know that there is a requirement in the ordinance and we can refer to the specific section in the ordinance as far as sewer and water assessment fees are concerned. That deal with inside and/or outside the City limits. Kingsford: Good job Gary, is there a motion? Morrow. Mr. Mayor t would move that we recommend to Ada County Development Services the approval of the final plat of the Strasser Farms Subdivision No. 2 subject to a note on the plat siting the water and sewer ordinance. Tolsma: Second Kingsford: Moved by Walt, second by Ron to recommend to Ada County Development Services the final plat be approved for Strasser Fauns Subdivision No. 2 subject to a note on the plat referring #o Meridian sewer and water ordinance on double hook up, all those in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #6: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE TO THE SETBACK REQUIREMENT BY RICHARD HEATON: Kingsford: At this time I will open the public hearing and invite the owner or his designee to speak first. Rich Heaton, 456 West Woodbury, was sworn by the City Attorney. Heaton: Okay, Councilmen I would like to introduce myself I am Richard Heaton and I have lived in Meridian my whole life, graduated from Meridian High School. For the last eight years I have worked for a home based drywall company owned by Yogie McDonald. My proposal is to build a 14 by 16 storage shed in the back of my property, 5 foot off my back property line. Upon starting this, which I have already poured the pad as of about the middle of September of last year. f had contacted all the utilities and the utilities assured me the water and the gas all come into the front of the property. They said they didn't. care, the cable T.V. and telephone all came to the back of the property and they said 5 foot is all we needed. So with that information and going by, I had approved by the subdivision they said they didn't meet with any disapproval. They said go ahead, I went ahead and poured it. The purpose of the shed is just strictly to store stuff, 1 am sure you . ~a~'R ~ 1 ~ 1995 ADA COUNTY EVALUATION SHEET Cj'1`Y OF MERIDIAN k.

MORROW P 3 Z COMMISSION JIM JOHNSON, Chairmen MOE ALIDJANI JIM SHEARER CHARLIE ROUNTREE TIM HEPPER June 2, 1995 Re: FINAL PLAT FOR STRASSER FARMS SUBDIVISION NO. 2 - IlVIPACT AREA (by Robert Strasser) I have reviewed this submittal and offer the following comments, for your information and consideration as conditions of the Applicant during the hearing process: 1. Sewer and water service to this development within our area of impact could be via existing main lines in N. Meridian Road. Service lines to service these parcels were installed ahead of the N. Meridian Road rebuild project of 1991. As-Built construction drawings from said project indicate that two 4" diameter sewer services were installed at approximately 142' and 37b' south, measured from the intersection of N. Meridian Road and W. Ustick Road (N.E. Corner of Section 1, T.3N, R.1W). There was also an 8" diameter main stubbed into the property at approximately 364' south. Three water service lines were extended into the parcel at approximately 207' , 229 and 386' south. A request for municipal services outside of the Corporate City Limits of the City of Meridian must be approved by the City Council. Assessment fees for sewer and water service would be double the current rate charged a single user within the City limits (5-127 and 7-538 Meridian City Ordinance). These parcels are also subject to Latecomers fees and service line reimbursements to the City of Meridian. 2. Please add adjacent "Platted Subdivision Names" and/or "Unplatted" to the plat map. 3. Please clarify Note No.7, there is no way of knowing what access is existing to the lots within this development. I would assume that the intent of this note is to not allow any additional access point beyond those that are existing. 4. Please delete the domestic water service origin note from the Certificate of Owners. City Council action is required for services outside the Corporate City Limits of Meridian.
