VI. LAND USE
A. Existing Land Use(s): The site is currently vacant undeveloped property.
B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: The subject property is
primarily surrounded by City and County residences zoned R-4, R-15 and R1 in Ada County.
C. History of Previous Actions:
In 2015, the property was rezoned from L-O to R-15 and granted a preliminary plat approval
for 15 single-family lots and five common lots (RZ-15-008, PP-15-007).
In 2016, the property was granted final plat approval for 14 single-family lots and 4 common
lots (H-2016-0108).
VII. STAFF ANALYSIS
The applicant requests approval to modify the final plat in order to accommodate additional storm
water drainage as required by ACHD. ACHD required the modifications to the final plat so that the
storm drainage is maintained on a common lot. The applicant’s proposal adds a common lot (Lot 16,
Block 1) along the east boundary to accommodate the storm drainage as required by ACHD. Further,
the applicant has consolidated two (2) of the common lots (Lots 6 and 7, Block 1) onto a single
common lot (Lot 6, Block 1) as part of the modification; the number of buildable lots has not changed
with the request. Because the number of buildable lots has not changed and the amount of common
open space has increased, Staff finds that the plat is generally consistent with the previously approved
final plat.
Staff recommends approval of the requested changes to the final plat as shown in Exhibit D and E.
