RE-ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to Zoning Amendments, both
the P&Z Commission and Council are required `to review the particular facts and
circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the following standards and
shall find adequate evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning
amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff:
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment; -
Staff finds that the requested zoning designation, R-8, is harmonious with and in
accordance with the effective Comprehensive Plan (`02) and Future Land Use
Map which designates the subject property as Medium Density Residential (3 to 8
dwelling units per acre.) The project has a gross density of 3.5 dwelling units per
acre.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
RZ~03-010, PP-03-025 Woodside Creel.RZ.PP
' Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council
October 2, 2003 (Hearing Date)
Page 3
The applicant has not indicated that they intend to rezone the subject property
again in the future.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
Staff finds that the proposed single-family residential development will be a
permitted use within the requested R-8 zone.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas, which may dictate
that the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened,
new railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being
developed in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Staff finds that land to the east, and north has already been developed in a manner
similar to the proposed subdivision. The surrounding residential subdivisions are
zoned R-4. The applicant is proposing density of 3.5 units per acre, building lots
will range in size from 6,500 square feet to 10,724 square feet.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
Staff finds that the proposed use (single family residential) is designed
appropriately to match with the existing and intended character of the general
vicinity. The proposed changes to the existing character of the area are in
harmony with the intended future land use envisioned by the Comprehensive
Plan.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future -
neighboring uses;
The Commission and Council should rely on public testimony to determine
whether or not the proposed use will be disturbing or hazadous to the existing or
future neighboring uses.
Staff does not anticipate that the proposed residential use will be hazadous or
disturbing to future or existing neighbors, as long as the recommended conditions
of approval are complied with.
G. WiR the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services
such as highways, streets, police and fu•e protection, drainage structures,
RZ-03-010, PP-03-025 Woodside Geek.AZ.PP
' Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council
October 2, 2003 (Hearing Date}
Page 4
refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for the
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Staff finds that the property to be annexed can be served adequately by all
essential public facilities and services. The subject property is served by an
exisfing public road (Wave Street) which stubs to the subject property from
Berkeley Square Subdivision. The subdivision is infill development and will not
take direct access from Ten Mile Road. City sewer and water will be extended by
the developer to the subject property.
The Commission and Council should review ACHD and Fire Department's
comments concerning this subdivision for further information regarding public
services.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
Staff finds that there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost
and that the annexation and zoning will not be detrimental to the community's
economic welfare. See Zoning Analysis Item G above.
I. Will the proposed uses not involve uses, activities, processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of
traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
Staff finds that the proposed subdivision will not create excessive traffic, noise or
other nuisances that would be detrimental to the general welfare of the
surrounding area.
Staff recognizes the fact that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of
this subdivision; however staff does not feel that the amount generated will be -
detrimental to the public welfare of the city.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
Staff finds that the subdivision's vehicular approach located within the previously
approved Berkeley Square Subdivision will not create interference with traffic on
surrounding roads.
Please review ACHD comments concerning vehicular approaches and traffic
generation.

Re: Woodside Creek Subdivision -Landscape Buffer
Dear Commissioners &-City Council Members:
RE~~D
SER 2 ~ Y003
CTl7f OF ir~I1DIAN
PLANJ!RNG 8c ZOI~IINt'
This letter is to bring to your attention the need for an alternative compliance with the City of
Meridian Landscape Ordinance for this project.
The existing home at 1115 N. Ten Mile Road has access onto Ten Mile Road and encroaches
into the 25' landscape buffer area by approximately 15'. As a condition of approval by the Ada
County Highway District, the access to Ten Mile Road will be removed but the house will
remain in its current location.
We are providing a 25' wide landscape buffer along the Ten Mile Road frontage as required by
ordinance but we cannot fully comply with the ordinance in the area of the existing home.
However, we will provide a landscape easement around the home to comply with the spirit and
intent of the ordinance. The area along the Ten Mile frontage is well landscaped and if it is
deemed necessary, we will provide additional landscaping to help buffer the home from Ten Mile
Road.
We believe that we are providing a quality project that is in compliance with the various
ordinances of the City of Meridian and we are respectfully requesting approval of our project
with this minor modification.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
BRIGGS ENGINEERING Inc.

11. Five Year Work ProgramlCapital Improvements Plan (CIP)
Ten Mile Road, from Franklin Road to Cherry Lane, is currently in the District's Five Year Work
Program for roadway improvements in 2007 (also in CIP). Ten Mile Road from Cherry Lane to Ustick
Road, is currently in the District's Five Year Work Program for roadway improvements in 2008 (also in
CIP).
12. Other Development in Area/Miscellaneous
On October 4, 2002, ACHD reviewed and approved Mosher's Farm, a 25-lot residential subdivision
located south of Berkeley Square.
On May 16, 2003, ACHD reviewed and approved The Courtyard, a 31-lot residential and 3-lot
comimercial subdivision, located at the southeast comer of Ten Mile Road and Pine Avenue.
B. Findings for Consideration
Right-of-Way & Sidewalk
Ten Mile Road 8 Pine Avenue
District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on arterial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way
allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot wide concrete detached
sidewalks and bike lanes. Djgtrict policy 7204.7.2 requires 5-foot wide (minimum) concrete sidewalk
on all arterial roadways.
Ten Mile Road, including the signalizatioh of the intersection of Ten Mile Road/Pine Avenue, is listed
as a project in the District's currently adopted Five Year Work Program and in the currently adopted
CIP. As such, the applicant may receive reimbursement for dedicated right-of-way from available
impact fees.
The applicant should dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way on Ten Mile Road, measured from the
centerline.
Because Ten Mile Road is in the Five Year Work Program, the applicant should road trust for the
sidewalk, in lieu of construction. ACHD will use the fungls to construct sidewalk abutting the site
when the roadway is widened. The applicant should provide a road trust deposit in the amount of
$7,280.00 to be used for future sidewalk construction along the applicant's frontage.
2. Access Points
Driveways

STORM WATER MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that storm water be pre-treated prior to discharge to the
subsurface to prevent impact to ground water and surface water quality. The
engineers and architects involved with the design of this project should obtain
current best management practices for storm water disposal and design a
storm water management system that is preventing groundwater and surface
water degradation. Manuals that could be used for guidance are:
State of Idaho Catalog of Stormwater Best Management Practices For
Idaho Cities and Counties.
Prepared by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, July
1997.
Stormwater Best Management Practices Guidebook.

RE: RZ 03-070 and PP03-025 Woodside Creek
Dear Will:
Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District has no comment on the above referenced request
to rezone 4.47 acres from R-4 to R8 zones for proposed Woodside Creek.
All storm drainage appears to be retained on site. This meets Nampa & Meridian
Irrigation District's requirements. All laterals and waste ways must be protected. The
Developer must comply with Idaho Code 31-3805.
Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District has not been approached to operate and maintain
this pressurized system. The District has a minimum system size of twenty (20) acres.
Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District would only operate and maintain this system if it
were connected to an existing system that we already operate.
Thank you,

Dear Planners:
City Of A'leridian
City Clerk Office
The Meridian School District has experienced phenomenal student growth the last ten
years. The high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools throughout the district
are operating over capacity.
Approval of Woodside Creek Subdivision will have a significant impact on school
enrollments at Chaparral Elementarv, Meridian Middle, and Meridian Hi School.
We can predict that these homes, when completed, will house five (5) elementary aged
children, four (4) middle school aged children, and three (3) senior high aged students.
Additional students will further compound the current overcrowded situation. However,
the developer has met with the school district and has agreed to include an elementary
and a high school site within this development.
_,
School capacity is addressed in Idaho Code 67-6508. The Meridian School District is
currently operating beyond capacity. Future development will continue to have an impact
on the district's capacity. If you have any questions, please contact me at 888-6701.
Sincerely,
~/~~,~
