. Preliminary Plat Approval of Seventy-one (71) Building Lots and Seven (7)
Common/Other Lots on 19.07 Acres in a Proposed R-8 Zone, by Capital
Development IIw.(File No. PP-O3-038).
We have reviewed the above refereneed submittals and oft'er the foUowing comments, as
conditions of approval. These conditions shaD be considered in full, unless expressly
modified or deleted by motiou of the Meridian City Conneil:
APPLICATION SUMMARY
The Applicant, Capital Development, Inc., has applied for annexation and zoning of 10.17 acres,
and preliminary plat approval of seventy-one (71) building lots on 19.07 acres of land generally
located one-half mile north of Ustick Road and one-half mile west of Meridian Road. Five
percent (0.95 acres) of the gross area of the site is devoted to open space. The subject site is
currently used for agricultural purposes.
This property is designated as "Medium Density Residential" on the City of Meridian Future
Land Use Map. The requested zoning designation for the annexation and zoning property (10.17
acres) is R-8. The property that was previously annexed by the City (8.9 acres) is currently zoned
R-8.
The gross density of the proposed preliminary plat is 3.72 dwelling units per acre. The net
density of the preliminary plat is 4.81 dwelling units per acre. The single-family building lots
within the subdivision range ITom 6,700 square.feet to 11,050 square feet. All housing types are
proposed as single-family detached.
The City of Meridian previously approved Baldwin Park Subdivision, of which a portion (8.9
acres) of the subject plat is a part. The original Baldwin Park Subdivision was approved with 272
AZ-O>-OD.PP-lJ3.O38
-_Addition S"". ""PP."""

buildable lots on 77.9 acres. As final plats were submitted to the City, the developer increased
the amount of buildable lots with the individual final plat phases. Through the first seven final
plat phases, the City has approved 247 buildable lots on the land that 240 lots were originally
approved. Because the number of lots within the final plats for Baldwin Park does not coincide
with the preliminary plat, staffhas asked the Applicant to resubmit the remaining portion of the
preliminary plat that has not been final platted (8.9 acres). The Applicant is proposing to annex
an additional 10 acres south of the original Baldwin Park Subdivision and amend the previously
approved plat by adding additional open space and 39 new buildable lots south of the White
Drain.
Access to the site is currently provided from stub streets in the Baldwin Park Subdivision and via
unimproved right-of-way along the eastern boundary of the site (Venable Lane). See Special
Consideration "A" in the Preliminary Plat Analysis below.
The Applicant is requesting a waiver of the requirement to cover, tile, or pipe the White Drain,
which bisects the subject property. Meridian City Code 12-4-13 requires an irrigation ditches,
laterals or canals, exclusive of natural waterways to be covered and enclosed with tiling or other
covering. See Special Consideration "B" in the Preliminary Plat Analysis below.
The Applicant is proposing to extend six stub streets into the subject property ftom previously
approved developments to the north, east, and west. As part of the approval for Baldwin Park
Subdivision, four streets are stubbed to the subject site. As part of the Cedar Springs
developments, two streets are stubbed to the subject site. The Applicant is extending the above-
mentioned stub streets and providing two additional stub streets to two undeveloped parcels to
the west and south. See Special Consideration "c" in the Preliminary Plat Analysis below.
StafT is recommending approval of the annexation, zoning and preliminary plat
applications, with the conditions ontlined in tbis report.

the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the
following standards and shal1 fmd 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:
B.
C.
D.
AZ$OO3, PI'-O3-<I38
A.
Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an app6cation for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, "medium density" is defined as areas
including single-family homes at densities of three to eight dwelling units per
acre. Staff finds that the requested zoning designation, R-8, is harmonious with
and in accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map,
which designates the land to be "Medium Density Residential".
Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Concurrent with the annexation and zoning application, the Applicant has
submitted a preliminary plat proposing single-family lots on the subject site
(Baldwin Park Addition Subdivision, PP-O3-038). Staff does not anticipate that
the Applicant plans to rezone the subject property in the future.
Is the area included in the zoning amendmeut intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoniug - for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
Staff finds that the proposed, concurrent, residential subdivision could be allowed
within the requested R.8 zone.
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 bcen developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Several residential developments in this area are changing the historically
agricultural nature of the area to be urban. The recent annexations and platting of
Bridgetower, Cedar Springs, Cobblefield Crossing and Baldwin Park, as well as
the new middle school just to the west of the site, create more urban type uses in
the area. However, there have been no recent street widenings and none are
currently scheduled within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or Capital
Improvements Plan (CIP). Other urban services, such as sewer and water, are near
to this site and the Applicant should be able to extend such services to the site.

Staff finds that the subject site is proposed for development in a fashion similar to
other properties in the area.
E.
WiJI the proposed nses 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 wiJI not chaoge the
essential character of the same area;
Staff finds that the proposed R-8 zoning and subsequent residential use proposed
with the concurrent preliminary plat match the intended character of the vicinity,
as noted on the Future Land Use Map in the Comprehensive Plan. Staff also finds
that the proposed zoning/uses can be designed and constructed in a manner that
will be harmonious with, and appropriate in appearance with, the existing and
intended character of the surrounding area. The existing character of the area will,
and is, currently changing, especially upon build-out of the proposed project and
other similar subdivisions in the general vicinity. Staff does not find that the
proposed zoningluses will adversely change the essential character of area. See
Preliminary Plat Analysis below for further information.
F.
WiJI the proposed nses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Due to other existing and proposed uses near the site, staff does not anticipate that
the proposed zoning/uses will be hazardous to future or existing uses or neighbors
in the area. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on public
testimony to determine whether the proposed use will be disturbing or hazardous
to the neighboring uses.
G.
Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services
such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures,
refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the penon responsible for the
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
The Commission and Council should reference any written or verbal testimony
submitted by the Meridian Police Department regarding their ability to adequately
service this project. The Meridian Fire Department has submitted a list of
conditions and needs in order to adequately serve the project (see attachment).
Water and sanitary sewer service are proposed to be extended ftom existing main
lines adjacent to the proposed development. The ACHD is recommending, with
site-specific and standards conditions, approval of the subject development.
Please review the ACHD report for this project for additional information
regarding this finding.

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;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local
street in&astructure, uIilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents wilI be fire, police and school
facilities and services. Staff finds 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.
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
tra1fic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
Staff finds that the proposed residential zoning/uses will not be detrimental to
people, property or the general welfare of the area. Staff recognizes that traffic
and noise will increase with the approval of this subdivision; however, staff does
not believe that the amount generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of
the public. Staff does not anticipate the proposed annexation and subsequent uses
will create excessive noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
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;
The subject site does not have any vehicular approaches to the site from nearby
arterial or collector roads. This site must rely on the construction and conveyance
of stub streets from the east and west for access, The extension of these stub
streets, will allow traffic to disperse without creating interference on public streets
in the area. Please review the ACHD report for this project for additional
information regarding this finding.
K.
Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
The White Drain bisects this property. The Applicant is proposing to leave the
White Drain open, as the developments to the east and west have done. Staff finds
that the proposed annexation and zoning should not result in the loss or damage of
any natural or scenic feature, as long as the White Drain is adequately protected.
Staff is not aware of any natural or scenic feature(s) that would be lost, damaged
or destroyed by allowing this site to be annexed, zoned and developed with
residential uses.

Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592,11-17-1992)"
In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that the annexation and
zoning of this property to R-8 would be in the best interest of the City.
t\NNEXATIONIREZONE FACTS AND CONDmONS
1. The legal descriptions submitted with the application appear to meet the requirements of
the City of Meridian and State Tax Commission.
2. The subject property lies within Meridian's Urban Services Planning Area.
3. Any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project will have to be
removed from their domestic service per City Ordinance Section 5-7-517. Wells may be
used for non-domestic purposes such as landscape irrigation.
PRELIMINARY PLAT ANALYSIS
Sections 12-3-3 J.2 and 12-3-5 D of Meridian City Code (MCC) read as follows: "In
detennining the acceptance of a proposed subdivision, the Commission/Council shall
consider the objectives of this title and at least the following:
A.
The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
In Chapter vn of the Comprehensive Plan, "medium density" is defined as areas
including single-family homes at densities of three to eight dwelling units per
acre. Staff finds that the proposed single-family residential subdivision, with a
gross density of3.7 dwelling units per acre (net 4.8 dwelling units per acre), is
harmonious with and in accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and
Future Land Use Map, which designates the land to be "Medium Density
Residential. "
B.
The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
Staff fmds that public services are available to accommodate the proposed
development. See Annexation and Zoning Analysis "H" above.
C.
The continnity of the proposed development with the eapital improvement
program;
Staff finds that the subdivision will not conflict with the capital improvement
program because the developer is required to install sewer, water, local street
infrastructure, utilities and irrigation, for the development at their cost.

D.
The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
Staff finds that the City and its related services are capable of servicing the
proposed development. The development will not require major expenditures for
providing supporting services. Staff recommends that the Commission and
Council consider the Meridian Police and Fire Departments' comments with
regard to their capability to serve the proposed development.
E.
The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to
the Commission's attention.
The Applicant is proposing to leave the White Drain open. The City has
previously allowed other developers (including the subject developer) to leave the
drain open in the area. However, there is a neW middle school being constructed
near this site. Leaving the White Drain open causes staff to be concerned about a
potential safety issue (please see Special Consideration "C" below). Staff finds
that there should not be any other health, safety or environmental problems
associated with this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor
Commission's attention. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis; no
hazardous natural features have been identified on the site. Staff finds the
Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony that may be
presented to determine whether the proposed use may cause health, safety or
environmental problems that staff is unaware of.
PRELIMINARY PLAT SPECIAL CONSID~RA TIONS
A Existing Parcel Configuration: Within the boundaries of the preliminary plat, there are
two existing parcels. Everything north of the White Drain, owned by Capital
Deveiopment Inc., was previously approved for subdivision as part of Baldwin Park
Subdivision. The parcel south of the White Drain, owned by John Kennedy, has not been
previously reviewed for development or annexation by the City. This parcel (south of the
drain) does not have ftontage on an improved public or a private street, The lack of
fi'ontage on a public road sometimes indicates that a property was the result of an illegal
split. That is I!Q1 the case with the subject parcel. Access to this site is currently provided
via unimproved right-of-way on. tbe eastern boundary. Further, the Applicant has
provided staff with a copy of a deed showing that the subject site has been in the same
general configuration since 1976. A deed recorded prior to 1984, with a legal description
matching the legal description of the property today, legitimizes the legality of the
configuration of this parcel. Therefore, even though the parcel does not have any frontage
on an improved public or private street, the City should recognize the subject parcel as a
legal parcel, eligible for development.
~tub Streets: The Applicant is proposing to extend six stub streets into the subject
property fi'om previously approved developments to the east and west. As part of the
approval for Baldwin Park Subdivision, Yosemite Drive, Crescent Street, Great Basin
Drive and Hyde Park Avenue were stubbed to this property. As part of the Cedar Springs

Subdivision, Anton Drive was stubbed to this sites east property line. As part of Cedar
Springs North Subdivision, Yosemite Drive was stubbed to this site's east property line.
The Applicant is extending the above-mentioned stub streets and providing two
additional stub streets to nndeveloped parcels to the south and west. Staff is supportive of
the extension of the six stub streets and providing two new stub streets to the parcel to the
west (parcel No. SO436315010), and to the south (parcel No. S0436314905). See Site
Specific Conditions #1 and #2.
c.
NOTE: There is a second "undeveloped" parcel to the west of the subject site (parcel No.
S0436315020). The property owners of both of the parcels to the west of the subject site
are the same (Dale & Kathy Cooper). The property line between the subject site and the
parcels to the west is 660-feet long. Therefore, staff believes that one stub street fi-om the
subject site will be adequate to serve both parcels when they develop in the future.
Pipipg of Ditches: Meridian City Code 12-4-13.Al recjuires all irrigation ditches, laterals
or canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent and
contiguous, or which canals, ditches or lateral touch either or both sides of the area being
subdivided, to be covered and enclosed with tiling or other covering equivalent in ability
to detour access to said ditch, lateral or canal. The Applicant is proposing to relocate and
tile the Coleman Lateral. The Applicant is proposing to leave the White Drain open. As
part of the original Baldwin Park Subdivision approval, the City previously allowed this
section of the White Drain to remain open.
Meridian City Code 12-4-13.A2 allows the City to waive the requirement for covering a
ditch, lateral or canal, if it finds that the public purpose requiring such will not be served
in the individual case. The properties directly to the east and west of the subject site that
abut the White Drain have not tiled or covered the lateral. Even though a new middle
school is currently under construction in this area, requiring this section of the drain to be
covered/tiled does not seem to serve any pubJic purpose. Further, when Baldwin Park
Subdivision was previously reviewed and approved, the Applicant was not required to
cover/tile this portion of the White Drain. Therefore, staff recommends that the Applicant
not be reqJ.Ùred to coverltile the White Drain. ¡fthe City Council too finds that tiling this
section of the White Drain will not improve public health. safet' or welfare. staff
recommends that the Applicant be required to construct a 6-foot tall fence on both sides
of the lateral. Further. the Applicant should be reQ.uired to work with the School District
to design a pedestrian link trom the new school tolfi-om the proposed development that is
not acjacent to the White Drain. This recommendation is consistent with previous
Council action. In accordance with Meridian City Code the Applicant should be required
to tile or cover any other irrigation ditches. laterals or canals that cross intersect or lie
adjacent to the subject site. See Site Specific Condition #3.
D.
Encroachment Agreement: There are several proposed buildable lots that encroach into
the existing Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District (NMID) and Settlers Irrigation District
easements. IfNMID and/or Settlers Irrigation does not allow encroachments into their
easement areas as proposed, the Applicant shall create a common lot for the non--
encroachable areas. All buildable lots within the subdivision shall maintain a minimum

6,500 square foot lot area. Prior to deveiopment plan approval, a copy of the signed
encroachment agreement(s) shall be submitted to the Public Works Department. See Site
Specific Condition #4,
F.
Pressure Irrigation: The Applicant has indicated that the pressurized irrigation system
within this development is to be owned and operated by the Baldwin Park HOA.
Underground year-round pressurized irrigation must be provided to all lots within this
development (MCC 12-5-2.N). The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation
systems be supplied by a year-round source of water (MCC 12-13-8.3). The Applicant
shall be required to utilize any existing surface or well water for the primary source. If a
surface or well source is not available, a single-point connection to the culinary water
system shall be required. If a single-point connection is utilized, the developer shall be
responsible for the payment of assessments for the common areas prior to signature on
the final plat by the City Engineer. A draft copy of the pressurized irrigation system
O&M manual must be submitted prior to plan approval, See Site Specific Condition #5.
G.
Right-of-Way Vacation: There is an existing 29-foot wide right-of-way located adjacent
to the east property line, and adjacent to Cedar Springs Subdivision. As conditioned in
the Cedar Springs approval and ACHD's staffreport, this right-of-way should be vacated
in order to prevent double-ftonted lots. The vacation must be completed through the
ACHD process prior to signature of a final plat(s) by the City Engineering for any lots
impacted by this right-of-way (south of the White Drain). See Site Specific Condition #6.
H.
Street Offsets: The submitted preliminary plat shows W. King Canyons Drive, a stub
street to the west, offsetting Anton Drive by approximately 95 feet. In accordance with
MCC 12-4-2.E, the Applicant should either align King Canyons Drive with Anton Drive,
or offset the centerlines by a minimum of 125 feet. See Site Specific Condition #7 below,
I.
Landscape Plan: The preliminary landscape plan (Sheet L-2, dated 10-21-3 by The Land
Group, Inc.) is approved with the following changes;
A. MCC 12-13-15-9 states that fences adjacent to a micropath landscape strip are
recommended to be "see through." If solid fencing is used, it shall not exceed
four feet in height. On the submitted landscape plan, a 6-foot tall fence is
proposed adjacent to Lot 52, Block 12. Fencing adjacent to micropaths,
including Lot 52, Block 12, and Lot 8, Block 19, should be constructed in
accordance with Meridian City Code. Further, all micropathslpathways within
the proposed subdivision shall be designed in accordance with MCC 12-13-15
"Micropath Landscaping" and 12-4-3 "Pedestrian Walkways."
B. Any proposed trees in irrigation easements or within ACED right-of-way
require a license agreement. Obtain a license agreement &om Settlers
Irrigation District for all trees in Lot 53, Block 4. NOTE: There is a City of
Meridian sewer line that runs adjacent to the White Drain. Trees within any
sewer easements are prohibited.

Dear Planners:
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 Baldwin Park Addition Subdivision will have a significant impact on school
enrollments at Ponderosa Elementarv. Eagle Scott Middle. and Eagle High School.
We can predict that these homes, when completed, will house twenty two (22) elementary
aged children, nineteen (19) middle school aged children, and fifteen (15) senior high
aged students. Additional students will further compound the current overcrowded
situation. Residents cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school, as it may be
necessary to bus students to other schools across the district.
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, pleaBe contact me at 855-4500.
Sincerely,

STORMW ATER 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
wat~r degradation. Manuals that could be used for guidance are:
State of Idaho Catalog of Storm water Best Management Practices For
Idaho Cities and Counties.
Prepared by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, July
1997.
