Daphne Square Final Plat -

LOCATION: 4700 W. McMillian Rd. I --
NE corner of N. Black Cat Rd and W.
McMillan Rd.
I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Final plat consisting of 28 buildable lots and 3 common lots on 4.97 acres of land in the R-15 zoning
district, developing in a single phase.
II. APPLICANT INFORMATION
Applicant/Representative:
Matt Schultz, Schultz Development—8421 S. Ten Mile Rd.,Meridian,ID 83642
A. Owner:
Joe Atalla,Berkeley Communities,LLC—2275 S. Eagle Rd#185,Meridian,ID 83642
III. STAFF ANALYSIS
The annexation,zoning,development agreement and preliminary plat for this development were
approved by City Council on January 19, 2021 (H-2020-0101,DA Instr. #2021-034930). The
preliminary plat consisted of 30 building lots and 3 common lots.All lots within the development
comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-6 for the R-15 zoning district.
At the January 19,2021 City Council meeting,the Council added a condition that the Applicant shall
increase quality open space and amenities by one or both options:
1. Coordinate with Brody Square representatives to locate a playground amenity in the central park
in Lot 9,Block 3 and allow shared open space and amenities for residents of both subdivisions;
or,
Pagel
Page 146
Item#8.
2. Convert Lot 1,Block 2 of Daphne Square Subdivision into common open space.
The applicant responded in a February 25,2021 email that the representative for Brody Square
Subdivision stated they did not have the room for additional playground equipment in the central park
in Lot 9,Block 3. Accordingly,the final plat indicates the additional open space as required in Option
2 (now shown as Lot 2 of Block 2). This results in slightly more useable open space than the
approved preliminary plat.
Staff has reviewed the proposed final plat for substantial compliance with the approved preliminary
plat in accord with the requirements listed in UDC 11-6B-3C.2. Because the final plat does not
increase the number of building lots and sees a slight increase in the amount of qualified open space
as shown on the approved preliminary plat, Staff finds the proposed final plat is in substantial
compliance with the approved preliminary plat as required.
IV. DECISION
Staff recommends approval of the proposed final plat within the conditions noted in Section VI of this
report.
