6. Site History: The District previously reviewed this site as part of Bainbridge Subdivision in
2005. The District also reviewed and approved a rezone application to rezone this site from R-4
to L-O (MRZ-09-003) on August 5, 2009.
On April 7, 2010 this site was before the ACHD Commission as Bainbridge Church Subdivision.
That item was on the regular agenda. The applicant requested a variance of policy to allow a
full access driveway onto Ten Mile Road. After much discussion, the Commission acted to
approve an emergency access only driveway onto Ten Mile Road.
Following the April 7`h Commission Meeting the applicant submitted a request for
reconsideration of the Bainbridge Church Subdivision application. The request was granted and
this item was reconsidered during the April 21, 2010 Commission Meeting.
During the reconsideration the applicant presented new information regarding the anticipated
2030 traffic volumes on Ten Mile Road, and their desire for aright-in/right-out only driveway.
After hearing testimony and some discussion the Commission vote was split 2 to 2. With the tie
vote the motion died and application was denied. The applicant has submitted a revised
application to revise the Bainbridge Subdivision preliminary plat and is now proposing aright-
in/right-out driveway onto Ten Mile Road.
2 Bainbridge Church Subdivision
Development Impacts
7. Trip Generation: This development is estimated to generate approximately 141 additional vehicle
trips per day (church), based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual.
8. Impact Fees: There will be an impact fee that is assessed and due prior to issuance of any building
permits. The assessed impact fee will be based on the impact fee ordinance that is in effect at that
time.
9. Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) /Five Year Work Plan (FYWP):
There are no roads, intersections, or bridges in the general vicinity of the development that are
programmed for improvement in the current Five Year Work Plan.
The following improvements are listed in the District's Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
• Ten Mile Road is listed for corridor preservation to accommodate widening to 5-lanes from
McMillan Road to State Hwy 20/26 (Chinden Blvd).
• The intersection of Ten Mile Road and State Hwy 20/26 (Chinden Blvd.) is listed to be
widened to 5-lanes on the east & west legs, and 4-lanes on the south leg and signalized
between 2019 and 2027.
B. Findings for Consideration
1. Ten Mile Road
Right-of-Way Policy: 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
concrete detached sidewalks and bike lanes.
ACHD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map (MSM)
guide the right-of-way acquisition, collector street requirements, and specific roadway features
required through development. This segment of Ten Mile Road is designated in the MSM as a
Residential Mobility Arterial with 5-lanes and on-street bike lanes, a 71-foot street section within 96-
feet of right-of-way.
Existing Conditions: There is 22 to 45-feet of pavement, and no curb, gutter, or sidewalk within
50 to 70-feet of right-of-way on Ten Mile Road.
Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is not proposing any improvements on Ten Mile Road
abutting the site.
Staff Comment/Recommendations: The District is currently acquiring right-of-way to
accommodate an eventual 5-lane arterial roadway. Because of this, the applicant will be required
to dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Ten Mile Road abutting the site, OR
dedicate 38-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of the Ten Mile Road and provide a 10-foot wide
sidewalk easement.
The applicant will be required to construct a 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk located a
minimum of 41-feet from the centerline of Ten Mile Road abutting the site. The applicant should be
required to provide a sidewalk easement for any segment of the sidewalk located outside of the
rig ht-of-way.
3 Bainbridge Church Subdivision
2. Broadbent Drive
Right-of-Way Policy: District policy requires 70-feet of right-of-way on collector roadways (Figure
72-F1 B). This right-of--way width allows for the construction of a 3-lane roadway with curb, gutter,
5-foot wide detached sidewalks and bike lanes.
46-foot Street Section Policy: District policy 72-F1 B requires collector roadways to be constructed
as 46-foot street sections with vertical curb, gutter, and 5-foot detached (or 7-foot attached)
concrete sidewalks within 70-feet of right-of-way. This street section allows for the construction of a
3-lane roadway with bike lanes.
Island Policy: District policy 7202.7 and 7207.5 require islands to be constructed a minimum of 4-
feet wide with a minimum area of 100-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The
roadway on either side of the traffic island should maintain a minimum of a 21-foot street section.
District policy requires any proposed landscape islands/medians within the public right-of-way
dedicated by this plat should be owned and maintained by a homeowners association and shall be
noted on the final plat.
ACRD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map (MSM)
guide the right-of-way acquisition, collector street requirements, and specific roadway features
required through development. Anew collector roadway was identified on the MSM with the street
typology of Residential Collector. The new collector roadway should align with W. Lost Rapids
Drive on the east side of Ten Mile Road and continue through the property stubbing to the west.
The Residential Collector typology as depicted in the Livable Street Design Guide recommends a 2-
lane roadway with bike lanes, and on street parking, a 47-foot street section within 69-feet of right-
of-way.
Existing Conditions: There is no roadway through the site.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct Broadbent Drive with 2 travel lanes
and 15-foot wide center landscape island within 66-feet of right-of-way abutting the site.
Staff Comment/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal meets District Policy and should be
approved, as proposed. The applicant should be required to provide a minimum 21-foot street
section on either side of the center landscape island. The proposed center landscape island should
be dedicated as public right-of-way and be maintained by the homeowners association through a
license agreement with ACRD.
With ACHD's prior action on this site, it was determined that Broadbent Drive should be constructed
as a 40-foot wide collector roadway with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot wide detached concrete
sidewalk (or 7-foot wide attached) within 60-feet of right-of-way abutting the site.
The applicant is proposing to dedicate 66-feet of right-of-way west of the center landscape island
this is enough right-of-way to accommodate the construction of the 40-foot collector street section.
Therefore, the applicant will be required to construct Broadbent Drive west of the center landscape
islands as a 40-foot collector roadway with vertical curb, gutter, and 5-foot wide detached concrete
sidewalk (or 7-foot wide attached) on both sides of the roadway abutting the site. The applicant
should be required to provide a sidewalk easement for any segment of the sidewalk located outside
of the right-of-way.
Consistent with the prior action on Bainbridge Subdivision, Broadbent Drive shall be constructed so
that the right-of-way line is at the property line and is not separated by a landscape buffer or a
common lot in order to provide access to the property to the north when it redevelops in the future.
4 Bainbridge Church Subdivision
3. Roadway Offsets
Offset Policy: District policy 7204.11.6 states that the optimum spacing for collector intersections
along arterial roadways is 1,700-feet to allow adequate signal spacing. The minimum spacing that
is acceptable for collector intersections along arterials is 1,300-feet.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct Broadbent Drive to intersect Ten Mile
Road approximately 1,460-feet south of Chinden Boulevard aligning centerline to centerline with W.
Lost Rapids Drive on the east side of Ten Mile Road.
Staff CommentlRecommendations: The applicant's proposal meets District policy and should be
approved, as proposed.
4. Stub Streets
Stub Street Policy: District policy 7203.5.1 states that the street design in a proposed development
shall cause no undue hardship to adjoining property. An adequate and convenient access to
adjoining property for use in future development may be required. If a street ends at the
development boundary, it shall meet the requirements of sub section 7205, "non-continuous
streets." District policy 7205.5 states that stub streets will be required to provide intra-neighborhood
circulation or to provide access to adjoining properties. Stub streets will conform with the
requirements described in Section 7204.5, 7204.6 and 7204.7, except a temporary cul-de-sac will
not be required if the stub street has a length no greater than 150-feet. A sign shall be installed at
the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE."
Temporary Turnaround Policy: District policy 7205.2 requires construction of a temporary cul-de-
sac with the same dimensional requirements as a standard cul-de-sac, with a minimum turning
radius of 45-feet where curb is required and 42-feet where curb is not required. The pavement width
shall be sufficient to allow the turning around of a standard AASHTO SU design vehicle without
backing. If a temporary turnaround is proposed to be located within a future building lot, the
temporary turnaround easement shall be for the entire building lot to prevent the easement from
being constructed over.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct Broadbent Drive as a stub street to
the west, located approximately 355-feet west of Ten Mile Road.
Staff Comment/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal meets District policy and should be
approved as proposed. Because the roadway will extend greater than 150-feet the applicant
should be required to construct a temporary turnaround at the terminus of the roadway. The
turnaround should be designed to provide a minimum turning outside turning radius of 45-feet.
Additionally, the applicant should be required to install a sign at the terminus of the stub street
stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE."
5. Driveways
Access Management Policy: District policy 7207.8 states that direct access to arterials and
collectors is normally restricted. The developer shall try to use combined access points. If the
developer can show that the use of a combined access point to a collector or arterial street is
impractical, the District may consider direct access points. Access points for proposed
developments at intersections should be located as far from the intersection as practical, and in no
case closer than as illustrated on Figure 72-F4, unless a waiver for the access point has been
approved by the District Commission.
5 Bainbridge Church Subdivision
Successive Driveway Policy (40 MPH): District policy 72-F5, requires driveways located on
collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of 40 to align or offset a minimum of 185-feet from
any existing or proposed driveway.
Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems
due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, the
applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site
beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers with 15-foot radii abutting
the existing roadway edge.
Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial and institutional driveways
with daily traffic volumes over 1,000 vehicles to a maximum width of 36-feet. Most commercial
driveways will be constructed as curb-cut type facilities if located on local streets. Curb return type
driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways.
Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct two driveways. One 25-foot wide
right-in/right-out only driveway to intersect Ten Mile Road, located approximately 125-feet north of
the south property line (measured property line to assumed near edge) and 400-feet south of the
proposed Broadbent Drive. The applicant is also proposing one 30-foot wide full access driveway
to intersect Broadbent Drive, located approximately 40-feet east of the west property line
(measured property line to near edge) and 315-feet west of Ten Mile Road. The driveway onto Ten
Mile Road aligns with an existing driveway on the east side of the roadway.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: The applicant's proposal to construct one 30-foot wide full
access driveway onto Broadbent Drive is approved as proposed.
The applicant's proposal to construct on 25-foot wide right-in/right-out only driveway onto Ten Mile
Road does not comply with District Access Management Policy or ACHD's prior preliminary plat
action on this site (Bainbridge Subdivision) which restricted direct lot access to Ten Mile Road.
However, staff recommends a variance from the policy to allow the right-in/right-out driveway to be
constructed, as proposed.
Staff recommends the variance due to the fact that end user of the lot, a church is a low trip
generator with almost all of the trips occurring on Sundays and/or during non peak travel times.
The two driveways on separate streets are needed for internal circulation of the site as there are
several separate services on Sundays and attendees arrive and depart services at the same time.
The two driveways on separate streets allow for a simultaneous entering and exiting of the site with
limited conflicts. Additionally, the 2030 Trend traffic projections on Ten Mile Road between Chinden
and McMillan (13,160 projected vehicle trips per day and 850 projected vehicle trips per hour in the
peak hour) are at the low end of the spectrum for a future 5-lane road. An acceptable level of
service for atwo-lane minor arterial is "D" (14,000 VTD and 720 VPH).
If approved, the driveway onto Ten Mile Road should be restricted to right-in/right-out with a six inch
raised median at the time the driveway is constructed.
Both driveways should be paved their full width at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of
pavement.
6. Landscaping
Tree Planter Policy: The District's Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in planters less than 8-feet
in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be allowed in planters with a
minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum
width of 10-feet.
6 Bainbridge Church Subdivision
License Agreements: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACRD
right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm
drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision triangle
at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height
restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop
signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District
requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans.
7. Other Access
Ten Mile Road is classified as a minor arterial roadway. Broadbent Drive is classified as a collector
roadway. Other than the access specifically approved with this application, direct lot access is
prohibited to these roadways and should be noted on the final plat.
C. Site Specific Conditions of Approval
Dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Ten Mile Road abutting the site, OR
dedicate 38-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of the Ten Mile Road and provide a 10-foot

housing are prohibited on Broadbent Drive. Provide a sign plan for review and approval by
District Traffic Services and Development Review staff and install signs. Provide a public use
easement for any segment of the sidewalk located outside of the right-of-way.
5. Dedicate the center landscape island as right-of-way and enter into a license agreement with
ACRD for the island to be maintained by the homeowners association.
6. The right-of-way line for Broadbent Drive shall be located at the property line and not separated
by a landscape buffer or a common lot, in order to provide access to the property to the north
when it redevelops in the future.
7. Construct Broadbent Drive as a stub street to the west property line,. Construct a cul-de-sac
turnaround at the terminus of the stub street. The turnaround shall be designed to provide a
