I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Modification to the existing Development Agreement (Inst. #2020-059662 – provision #5.1g) to
allow building permits for the commercial portion of the development to be issued prior to
subdivision of the property.
II. SUMMARY OF REPORT
A. Applicant:
Kody Daffer, Brighton Development – 2929 W. Navigator Rd., ID 83642
B. Owner:
Martin L. Hill – 3675 E. Amity Rd., Meridian, ID 83642
C. Representative:
Kody Daffer, Brighton Development – 2929 W. Navigator Rd., ID 83642
III. STAFF ANALYSIS
The Applicant proposes to amend provision #5.1g in the existing Development Agreement (DA) (Inst.
#2020-059662), to allow for building permits to be issued in the commercial portion of the development
prior to subdivision of the property as currently required.
The existing provision reads, “The annexation area shall be subdivided prior to issuance of any building
permits beyond those required for the development of the school, YMCA and park site, a wireless
communication facility, the assisted living facility, medical clinic, and the Hill’s Century Farm North
community center complex on common lot 101 as shown on the revised conceptual development plan
dated October 30, 2019.”

The Applicant proposes the following change: “The residential portions of the annexation area shall be
subdivided prior to issuance of any building permits beyond those required for the development of
commercial uses, including but not limited to the school, YMCA and park site, a wireless
communication facility, the assisted living facility, medical clinic, and the Hill’s Century Farm North
self-service storage facility and the community center complex on common lot 101 as shown on the
revised conceptual development plan dated October 30, 2019.”
Because commercial property is not typically required to be subdivided prior to issuance of building
permits, Staff recommends the existing provision is stricken and alternate language is provided
instead that would simplify the requirements for subdivision of the property, which Staff believes
meets the Applicant’s intended purpose, as follows: “The R-8 and R-15 zoned residential portions of
the annexation area shall be subdivided prior to issuance of any building permits beyond those
required for the community center complex on Lot 101 as shown on the revised conceptual
development plan dated October 30, 2019; building permit(s) for the community center complex may
be issued prior to subdivision of the property. Subdivision of the C-N and C-C zoned commercial
portions of the annexation area is not required prior to issuance of building permits.”
IV. DECISION
A. Staff:
Staff recommends approval of a modification to the DA as recommended by Staff in Section V.
