Borup: So, the first item is -- it's avacation -- a request for vacation of a utility
easement, VAC 03-006. This is for a vacation of a utility easement in -- what
was originally Turtle Creek No. 1 Subdivision. They are just looking for a
recommendation from this Commission. This is not a Public Hearing, so we will
not be opening this as a Public Hearing. Do we have any additional information
from staff?
Powell: Yes, sir. Members of the Commission, this is a fairly straightforward
vacation. You can see here that this is the -- the Turtle Creek Subdivision and
also the resubdivision, which is why we have to do this easement, is to
accommodate the resubdivision. The dark line that you see is the south line of
Lot 2 and that's what has -- the easement is on the south ten feet of that lot. As
you can see, it goes through several of the new lots in the subsequent
subdivision, so we are just vacating that easement.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I have no problem recommending this to the City
Council. Does that require a motion?
Borup: Yes. Go ahead.
Zaremba: Okay. Mr. Chairman, I move that we forward to the City Council
recommending approval of Item four on our agenda, VAC 03-006, request for a
vacation of utility, drainage, and irrigation easement on the south ten feet of Lot
2, Block 6, of Turtle Creek Subdivision No. 1 by Tully Cove, LLC, west of North
Linder Road and south of West Ustick Road, to include all staff comments -- or
were there any? Let's -- hang on just minute to include all staff comments of their
memo for the hearing date of November 20, 2003.
Rohm: Second.
Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES

Borup: Okay. The next item is a Continued Public Hearing for Cherry Lane
Office Park. We do have a request from the applicant, since they were out of
town, to -- if we could continue.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman?
Borup: Yes.
Zaremba: That request is for us to continue it to our next meeting, which would
be December 4t", which I find I have stack and stacks of paperwork for, so I
assume it's an extremely full meeting. Are we able to revise the request and put
it to December 18t" instead?
Borup: Well, we sure can. Yes.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I --
Borup: Let me take a quick look at -- yeah. We have got the continued
Redfeather, which could be lengthy.
Zaremba: Is that on the 18`" or the 4t"?
Borup: On the 4`".
Zaremba: Yes and there is -- I have at least 10 other things, I think, already in
my stack for that.
Borup: Yes. I was just trying to see how many were -- well, there are like -- four
of the items are on one -- on one subdivision, so -- so there is three other
residential subdivisions -- or two other residential subdivisions, besides
Redfeather, and then, some business parks and that kind of stuff. I think we do
have a full night.
Zaremba: So, you're in agreement that the 18tH is a better choice?
Borup: I don't know. The 18t" isn't much better. Oh, what happened here? I'm
sorry. Has Cobblefield already requested -- why do we have Cobblefield on both
hearings -- or both dates, do we know?
Hawkins-Clark: Chairman Borup, members of the Commission, after the first
notice was given for Cobblefield Crossing No. 2, the Highway District had their
tech review meeting with the applicant and at that meeting there was a stub
street that was added, which changed the number of lots, which meant a revised
hearing.
Borup: So, that takes if off - so, it's not on the 4tH?
Hawkins-Clark: It's not on the 4tH, no. It has been re-noticed for the 18t"

Borup: Oops. I just -- okay. That's already --
Green: Mr. Chairman, members of the Commission, I did leave it on December
4t" being it has already been noticed for that hearing, so I left it on that agenda
with a note that it has been re-noticed for the 18t".
Borup: Okay. That sounds --
Green: Just so you know.
Borup: For right now that puts presently 16 items on the 18~" and 14 on the 4~"
The number of items doesn't necessarily coincide with the length of the hearings
and that's with Mayfair -- okay. Well, that's why we got Mayfair on the 18~". I
think that's -- well, I think that's still a good date.
Zaremba: The 18`"?
Borup: Yes. Looking at -- yes. That still puts three. residential subdivisions on
the 4f" as it is.
Zaremba: Okay.
Borup: With the Cobblefield gone.
Zaremba: Let's go with the 18t".
Borup: Yes.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman?
Borup: Back to where we started.
Zaremba: I move we continue the public hearings for items five and six, PP 03-
029 and CUP 03-048, to our meeting of December 18, 2003.
Rohm: Second.
Borup: Motion and secohd to continue to December 18`". All in favor? Any
opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES
Borup: The other thing I might mention before we go on, Item Number 11, 12
and 13, Mayfair Commons, they have -- well, that -- actually, that hearing has
been re-noticed. Was there anybody here for that? Okay. The reasoning for the
re-notification, it was posted on the wrong property, but, apparently, you got
notice okay, though, so it served its purpose. Just to try to be careful on the
Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting

legalities, it was felt necessary to renotice that. It will be -- it has been re-noticed
for December 18th. If there -- since it has been noticed for tonight, if any of you
would like to stay and would not be able to come the other time, we would take
your testimony this evening. You're welcome to stay and we would take the
testimony, but there would not be a presentation by the developer.
Item 7. Public Hearing: PP 03-030 Request for Preliminary Plat
approval of 48 residential lots, 21 ofFlce lots, and 7 other lots on
14.58 acres in an L-O zone for proposed Maverick Subdivision by
Dirk Marcum and Michael Riggs -south of East Overland Road on
the west side of Millennium Way:
Borup: Okay. Continuing on. Item number seven is PP 03-030, request for
Preliminary Plat approval of 48 residential lots, 21 office lots, and seven other
lots on 14.58 acres in an L-O zone for proposed Maverick Subdivision. Item
number nine, CUP 03-045, request for a Conditional Use Permit to modify
existing Planned Unit Development to allow for office uses. This is at Overland
Road and Millennium Way in an L-O zone. This is for the proposed Maverick
Subdivision. I'd like to open both hearings at this time and start with the staff
report.
Hood: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, members of the Commission. Craig Hood,
Planning and Zoning staff. The applicant has requested preliminary plat and
conditional use approval for a Planned Development on 14.48 acres of land
located on the south side of Overland Road, on the west side of Meridian Way,
between Locust Grove Road and Eagle Road. The subject site is designated
high density residential on the 2002 Comprehensive Plan future land use map
and currently zoned L-O. The subject site was previously plotted as Lot 6, Block
1, of Resolution Subdivision. The submitted Preliminary Plat proposes to
subdivide the existing 14.58-acre lot into 48 residential lots, 21 office lots, and
seven other common lots. The. submitted Conditional Use Permit planned
development proposes to modified the previously approved conceptual permit by
reducing the number of apartment units from 200 to 192 and including 21 office
pad sites along Overland Road and Millennium Way. All the proposed units
contain two bedrooms. The applicant is proposing to construct a clubhouse,
complete with pool and playground facilities and pedestrian pathways throughout
the development as amenities for the PD. The detailed CUP includes a request
for reduced setbacks for the buildings, reduced lot frontage, and reduced lot
sizes in the L-O zone. As part of the detailed approval for the previous
Conditional Use Permit on this site, the previous applicant was proposing to
construct 20 multi-family buildings, with each building containing 10 units
arranged to appear as one very large residence. This big house concept
provided a different multi-family development design and feel than most other
apartment complexes within the city. The applicant has responded to the written
staff report and agrees that -- and staff agrees that east should be west and east
should -- or west should be east and east should be west in the conditions - site-
specific condition six and seven. After talking with the Public Works Department,
they would prefer to just leave the standard conditions of approval in the staff
