5. New Center Lane Miles: The proposed development includes 0.0 centerline miles of new public
road.
6. Impact Fees: There will be an impact fee that is assessed and due prior to issuance of any building
permits. The assessed impact fee will be based on the impact fee ordinance that is in effect at that
time. The impact fee assessment will not be released until the civil plans are approved by ACHD.
7. Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)/ Integrated Five Year Work Plan (IFYWP):
There are no roadways, bridges or intersections in the general vicinity of the project that are in the
Integrated Five Year Work Plan (IFYWP) or the District’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
8. Roadways to Bikeways Master Plan: ACHD’s Roadways to Bikeways Master Plan (BMP) was
adopted by the ACHD Commission in May of 2009 and was update in 2018. The plan seeks to
implement the Planned Bicycle Network to support bicycling as a viable transportation option for Ada
County residents with a wide range of ages and abilities, maintain bicycle routes in a state of good
repair in order to ensure they are consistently available for use, promote awareness of existing
bicycle routes and features and support encouragement programs and to facilitate coordination and
cooperation among local jurisdictions in implementing the Roadways to Bikeways Plan
recommendations.
The BMP identifies Ustick Road as a Level 2 facility. Ustick Road is already improved with 6-foot
wide bike lanes on abutting the site.
B. Traffic Findings for Consideration
1. Trip Generation: This development is estimated to generate 129 additional vehicle trips per day
(0 existing); 13 additional vehicle trips per hour in the PM peak hour (0 existing), based on the
Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 10th edition.
2. Condition of Area Roadways
Traffic Count is based on Vehicles per hour (VPH)
* Acceptable level of service for a five-lane principal arterial is “E” (1,780 VPH).
** ACHD does not set level of service thresholds for State Highways.
3. Average Daily Traffic Count (VDT)
Average daily traffic counts are based on ACHD’s most current traffic counts.
• The average daily traffic count for Eagle Road south of Ustick Road was 53,855 on 6/19/2019.
• The average daily traffic count for Ustick Road west of Eagle Road was 26,223 on 4/17/2019.

MER20-0097/A-2020-0163
SH-55 / Eagle Road is under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD). The
applicant, City of Meridian, and ITD should work together to determine if additional right-of-way or
improvements are necessary on SH-55 / Eagle Road.
2. Ustick Road
a. Existing Conditions: Ustick Road is improved with 5 lanes and 7 lanes at the intersection with
Eagle Road, vertical curb, gutter, and no sidewalk abutting the site. There is 85 to 100-feet of
right-of-way for Ustick Road (40 to 55-feet from centerline).
b. Policy:
Arterial Roadway Policy: District Policy 7205.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for
improving all street frontages adjacent to the site regardless of whether or not access is taken
to all of the adjacent streets.
Master Street Map and Typology Policy: District Policy 7205.5 states that the design of
improvements for arterials shall be in accordance with District standards, including the Master
Street Map and Livable Streets Design Guide. The developer or engineer should contact the
District before starting any design.
Street Section and Right-of-Way Width Policy: District Policies 7205.2.1 & 7205.5.2 state
that the standard 5-lane street section shall be 72-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb) within 96-
feet of right-of-way. This width typically accommodates two travel lanes in each direction, a
continuous center left-turn lane, and bike lanes on a minor arterial and a safety shoulder on a
principal arterial.
Right-of-Way Dedication: District Policy 7205.2 states that The District will provide
compensation for additional right-of-way dedicated beyond the existing right-of-way along
arterials listed as impact fee eligible in the adopted Capital Improvements Plan using available
impact fee revenue in the Impact Fee Service Area.
No compensation will be provided for right-of-way on an arterial that is not listed as impact fee
eligible in the Capital Improvements Plan.
The District may acquire additional right-of-way beyond the site-related needs to preserve a
corridor for future capacity improvements, as provided in Section 7300.
Sidewalk Policy: District Policy 7205.5.7 requires a concrete sidewalk at least 5-feet wide to
be constructed on both sides of all arterial streets. A parkway strip at least 6-feet wide between
the back-of-curb and street edge of the sidewalk is required to provide increased safety and
protection of pedestrians. Consult the District’s planter width policy if trees are to be placed
within the parkway strip. Sidewalks constructed next to the back-of-curb shall be a minimum of
7-feet wide.
Detached sidewalks are encouraged and should be parallel to the adjacent roadway.
Meandering sidewalks are discouraged.
A permanent right-of-way easement shall be provided if public sidewalks are placed outside of
the dedicated right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right-
of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk. Sidewalks shall either be located
wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement.
Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing
streets adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These improvements are to
correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk construction or
replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused driveways
with curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement
repairs; signs; traffic control devices; and other similar items.
4 Urgent Care Clinic/
MER20-0097/A-2020-0163
ACHD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map
(MSM) guide the right-of-way acquisition, arterial street requirements, and specific roadway
features required through development. This segment of Ustick Road is designated in the MSM
as a Residential Arterial with 5-lanes and on-street bike lanes, a 72-foot street section within
98-feet of right-of-way.
c. Applicant Proposal: The applicant has proposed to construct a 5-foot wide detached concrete
sidewalk on Ustick Road abutting the site.
d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant’s proposal to construct the sidewalk
meets District policy and should be approved, as proposed. The applicant should locate the
sidewalk a minimum of 41-feet as measured from the centerline of Ustick Road. If street trees
are desired an 8-foot wide planter strip is required.
The applicant should be required to provide a permanent right-of-way easement that extends
from the existing right-of-way line to 2-feet behind the back of sidewalk since there is already 2-
feet of right-of-way behind the back-of-curb. Typically, additional right-of-way dedication would
be required for Ustick Road abutting the site to meet the right-of-way width required for the
Residential Arterial street section consistent with the MSM. However, the segment of Ustick
Road abutting the site is fully constructed with 5 to 7 travel lanes meeting the intent of the MSM.
Because of this staff does not recommend any additional right-of-way dedication as part of this
application.
Consistent with the District’s Minor Improvements Policy, the applicant should be required to
improve any deteriorated or broken segments of curb and gutter on Ustick Road abutting the
site.
3. Driveways
3.1 Ustick Road
a. Existing Conditions: There is an existing 35-foot wide right-in/right-out only driveway from the
site onto Ustick Road located 480-feet west of Eagle Road. This driveway is proposed to be
closed as part of the Villasport development located directly east of the site. There is a shared
36-foot wide driveway proposed onto Ustick Road at the site’s west property line that will be
restricted to right-in/right-out only with a 6” raised median. This shared driveway and raised
median have not yet been constructed and were approved as part of ACHD’s action on the
Villasport development.
b. Policy
Access Points Policy: District Policy 7205.4.1 states that all access points associated with
development applications shall be determined in accordance with the policies in this section
and Section 7202. Access points shall be reviewed only for a development application that is
being considered by the lead land use agency. Approved access points may be relocated
and/or restricted in the future if the land use intensifies, changes, or the property redevelops.
Access Policy: District policy 7205.4.7 states that direct access to principal arterials is typically
prohibited. If a property has frontage on more than one street, access shall be taken from the
street having the lesser functional classification. If it is necessary to take access to the higher
classified street due to a lack of frontage, the minimum allowable spacing shall be based on
Table 1b under District policy 7205.4.7, unless a waiver for the access point has been approved
by the District Commission. Driveways, when approved on a principal arterial shall operate as
a right-in/right-out only, and the District will require the construction of a raised median to restrict
the left turning movements.
Driveway Location Policy: District policy 7205.4.7 requires driveways located on principal
arterial roadways to be located a minimum of 355-feet from the nearest intersection for a right-
in/right-out only driveway. Full-access driveways are not allowed on principal arterial roadways.
5 Urgent Care Clinic/
MER20-0097/A-2020-0163
Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7205.4.8 restricts high-volume driveways (100 VTD or
more) to a maximum width of 36-feet and low-volume driveways (less than 100 VTD) to a
maximum width of 30-feet. Curb return type driveways with 30-foot radii will be required for high-
volume driveways with 100 VTD or more. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be
required for low-volume driveways with less than 100 VTD.
Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance
problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy,
7205.4.8, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-
feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers in
accordance with Table 2 under District Policy 7205.4.8.
Cross Access Easements/Shared Access Policy: District Policy 7202.4.1 states that cross
access utilizes a single vehicular connection that serves two or more adjoining lots or parcels
so that the driver does not need to re-enter the public street system.
c. Applicant’s Proposal: The applicant has proposed to close the existing driveway onto Ustick
Road with curb, gutter and sidewalk to match improvements on either side and utilize the shared
driveway that is proposed to be constructed with the Villasport development.
d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant’s proposal to close the existing driveway
meets District policy and should be approved, as proposed. If the driveway that is proposed to
be constructed onto Ustick Road with the Villasport development is not constructed by the time
of the development of this site, then the applicant should be required to construct the 36-foot
wide curb return type shared driveway onto Ustick Road located at the site’s east property line
and restrict it to right-in/right-out only with a 6-inch raised median consistent with ACHD’s action
on Villasport development.
4. Tree Planters
Tree Planter Policy: Tree Planter Policy: The District’s Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in
planters less than 8-feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be
allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed
in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet.
5. Landscaping
Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACHD
right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm
drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision triangle
at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height
restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop
signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District
requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans.
6. Other Access
Ustick Road classified as a principal arterial roadway. Other than the access specifically approved
with this application, direct lot access is prohibited to these roadways.
D. Site Specific Conditions of Approval
1. Construct a 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk on Ustick Road abutting the site located a
minimum of 41-feet from the centerline of the roadway. Provide a permanent right-of-way easement
that extends from the right-of-way line to 2-feet behind the back of sidewalk.
2. Close the existing 35-foot wide driveway onto Ustick Road that is located 480-feet west of Eagle
Road with vertical curb, gutter and sidewalk to match improvements on either side, as proposed.
