PZ - Settlers Irrigation CommentsSettlers Irrigation District does own and operate facilities located
within the project site. All plans must be submitted to Settlers for
review and comment. Once settlers has granted approval, Settlers will
need to preform inspections on the relocation and installation of the
canals. Developer must obtain a License agreement from Sawtooth law to
pipe the District’s facilities. These steps must be complete prior to
any construction.

Dear Planners:
Joint School District No. 2 (dba West Ada School District) has experienced phenomenal student growth
in the last ten years. Nearly every high school, middle school, and elementary school throughout the
district is operating at or over capacity. Approval of the Birkdale Estates Subdivision will have an impact
on school enrollments at the elementary, middle school and high school levels in West Ada School
District. Based on U.S. census data, we can predict that these homes, when completed, will house 13
school aged children.
West Ada School District supports economic growth. However, growth fosters the need for additional
school capacity. Revenue support from developers of new residential subdivisions for the purchase of
the school sites necessary to serve the proposed subdivision is required. West Ada School District
estimates the revenue required for the purchase of future school sites is $830.00 per new home
constructed. The approval of Birkdale Estates Subdivision will create the need for $13,280 in revenue
to purchase the school sites this subdivision will require. In lieu of these sources of revenue, the district
will accept the donation of land appropriate for a school site. Such a site would need water and sewer
service available, and prior to the commencement of construction, the district will need to pass a bond
issue for the construction of schools.
Residents cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school as it may be necessary to bus
students to available classrooms across the district. We ask that you require the developer to provide
safe walkways, bike baths and safe pedestrian access for our students. School capacity is addressed in
Idaho code 67-6508. Future development will continue to have an impact on the district's capacity.
r�incerely,
oe Yo u
nterim S perintendent
West Ada School District
