concurrently with annexation of the property for 68 residential lots (24 townhouse lots and 44
detached single-family lots), 10 common lots and 2 private street (alley) lots on 9.52 acres of
land.
• The final plat for Jericho Subdivision (FP -07-024) was approved by City Council on August 21,

single-family lots), 10 common lots and 2 private street (alley) lots on 9.52 acres in an R-4 and R-
15 zoning district.

City Council overturned the Director's decision and granted approval of the 18 -month time
extension.

8. STAFF ANALYSIS
This is the fourth time extension requested for approval. The previous time extension approved by
City Council expired on September 20, 2014. The applicant met the necessary deadline by filing a
written request for a time extension before the time extension expired. The applicant states the
development of the property has not progressed due to the number of projects under construction. It is
anticipated that the Jericho Subdivision will begin construction in the spring therefore; the applicant
requests a one (1) year extension.
With previous time extensions, the applicant has been required to comply with the current
requirements of the UDC. To ensure the development complies with conditions of approval of the
previous time extensions, staff has provided a timeline of Council's previous actions as follows:

on each individual buildable lot prior to City Engineer's signature on a final plat. In addition,
the applicant shall incorporate the requirement for the trees into the Jericho Subdivision's

prior to receiving City Engineer's signature on a final plat.
(TEC -12-010) — The City Council approved the following new conditions:
➢ 1) The City of Meridian requires that the owner post to the City a performance surety in the
amount of 125% of the total construction cost for all incomplete sewer, water and reuse
infrastructure prior to final plat signature . This surety will be verified by a line item cost

irrevocable letter of credit, cash deposit or bond. Please contact Land Development for more
information at 887-2211.
➢ 2) The City of Meridian requires that the owner post to the City a warranty surety in the
amount of 20% of the total construction cost for all completed sewer, water and reuse

and the City of Meridian Supplemental Specifications to the ISPWC.
➢ 4) As testified at the public hearing, the applicant/owner must provide regimented weed
control and remove the remaining dead trees from the property.
