IV. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS(Comprehensive Plan)
The Future Land Use Map(FLUM)contained in the Comprehensive Plan designates this property as
Low Density Residential(LDR).
The LDR designation allows for the development of single-family homes on large and estate lots at
gross densities of three dwelling units or less per acre. These areas often transition between existing
rural residential and urban properties. Developments need to respect agricultural heritage and
resources,recognize view sheds and open spaces,and maintain or improve the overall atmosphere of
the area. The use of open spaces,parks,trails and other appropriate means should enhance the
character of the area.
The proposed development consists of a total of 50 single-family detached dwellings on large lots
[i.e. 12,000 square foot(s.f.)minimum] on 39.01 acres of land at an overall gross density of 1.76
units/acre,which falls within the density range desired in LDR designated areas. This property abuts a
County subdivision, Shafer View Estates,to the south and will provide a transition to future urban
properties to the north, zoned R-4 and R-8.
The following Comprehensive Plan Policies are applicable to this development:
• "Encourage a variety of housing types that meet the needs, preferences, and financial
capabilities of Meridian's present and future residents."(2.01.02D)
Only one housing type, single-family detached, is proposed which Staff believes is appropriate
due to the large lot sizes and density desired in LDR designated areas. The variety of lot sizes
(i.e. 8,600-23,600 sf.) proposed will provide for diversity in styles of homes, which Staff
believes will contribute to the variety of housing in the City to meet the preferences and
financial capabilities of Meridian's present and future residents.
• "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities
and urban services at the time of final approval, and in accord with any adopted levels of
service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F)
City water and sewer service is available and can be extended by the developer with
development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21.
• "Encourage compatible uses and site design to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land."
(3.07.00)
The proposed density and lot sizes should be compatible with the rural residential
homes/properties to the south on 1+ acre lots in the County and future urban residential
development to the north and east in the City.
Page 6
• "Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and
the extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City
of Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development."
(3.03.03A)
The proposed development will connect to City water and sewer systems;services are
required to be provided to and though this development in accord with current City plans.
• "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities
and urban services at the time of final approval,and in accord with any adopted levels of
service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F)
City water and sewer services are available to this site and can be extended by the developer
with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. The emergency response times for Police
Dept. and Fire Dept. meets the established goals.
• "With new subdivision plats,require the design and construction of pathway connections, easy
pedestrian and bicycle access to parks, safe routes to schools,and the incorporation of usable
open space with quality amenities."(2.02.01A)
A 10 foot wide multi-use pathway is proposed within the street buffer along S. Meridian
Rd.ISH--69 as required by the Pathways Master Plan and UDC 11-3H-4C.4. A total of 4.05
acres of qualified open space is proposed along with quality amenities (i.e. sports court,
gazebo, tot lot, multi-use pathway).
• "Evaluate comprehensive impacts of growth and consider City Master Plans and Strategic
Plans in all land use decisions(e.g.,traffic impacts, school enrollment, and parks)."
(3.01.01A)
The Traffic Impact Study(TIS)was not required by ACHD for this development.
WASD submitted comments stating that approximately 35 school aged children are estimated
to be generated by this development; enrollment at Mary McPherson Elementary School and
Victory Middle School is currently under capacity and Mountain View High School is over
capacity(see Section VIII.I).According to the Community Development's school impact
analysis, enrollment at Victory Middle School will be slightly over capacity at build-out of
building permits already issued in this area at 104%(Mary McPherson will be 95%and
Mountain View will be 109%) (see Section VIII.J).
The closest City Park to this site is Discovery Park, consisting of 77-acres, to the southeast
on E. Lake Hazel Rd., Y4 mile east of S. Locust Grove Rd. A future City Park is designated on
the FL UM within a half mile of this site to the west.
• "Require all development to create a site design compatible with surrounding uses through
buffering, screening,transitional densities, and other best site design practices."(3.07.01A)
The proposed site design features a 1:1, 2:1 and 3:1 transition in proposed lots to existing
lots in Shafer View Estates to the south. These lots are separated by an existing 41 foot wide
easement for the McBirney Lateral which provides an added buffer between rural lots and
proposed urban lots.
• "Require urban infrastructure be provided for all new developments, including curb and
gutter, sidewalks,water and sewer utilities."(3.03.03G)
Urban sewer and water infrastructure and curb, gutter and sidewalks are proposed as
required with this development.

In summary, Staff believes the proposed development plan is generally consistent with the vision
of the Comprehensive Plan per the analysis above.
V. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE ANALYSIS( L0
A. Annexation:
The proposed annexation is for 40.48 acres of land with R-2 (10.66 acres)and R-4(29.82 acres)
zoning districts,which includes adjacent right-of-way to the section line of S. Meridian Rd./SH-
69 and to the centerline of E. Quartz Creek St.
A total of 50 residential dwelling units are proposed to develop on the site at an overall gross
density of 1.76 units per acre consistent with the associated LDR FLUM designation for the site.
Although the proposed density is more consistent with an R-2 (Low Density Residential)zoning
district,the Applicant requests R-4 in order to provide a transition in lot sizes between the
existing rural residential subdivision to the south(Shafer View Estates)and the future urban
residential subdivision approved to the north(Prevail Subdivision),zoned R-8. Larger lots are
proposed adjacent to the southern boundary that gradually transition to smaller lots to the north.
The property is contiguous to City annexed land and is within the City's Area of City Impact
boundary. A legal description and exhibit map of the overall annexation area along with
individual legal descriptions and exhibit maps for the R-2 and R-4 zoning districts are included in
Section VIII.A.
The City may require a development agreement(DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant
to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. To ensure future development is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and with the development plan proposed with this application, Staff
recommends a new DA is required with this application, containing the provisions noted in
Section VIII.A, as discussed below.
B. Preliminary Plat:
The proposed plat is a re-subdivision of Lot 4,Block 1, Shafer View Estates, developed in Ada
County and recorded in 2002 (Bk. 84,Pg. 9403). This lot was deed restricted and was only
allowed to be used for open space as defined in the non-farm development section of the Ada
County code and the planned development section of the Ada County code for a period of not less
than 15 years from the recording date of the subdivision plat. The required time period has
elapsed and the lot is now eligible for redevelopment.
The proposed preliminary plat consists of 50 buildable lots and 10 common lots on 39.01 acres of
land in the R-2 and R-4 zoning districts. The subdivision is proposed to develop in three(3)
phases as shown on the phasing plan in Section VII.B. The first and second phases consist of
28.35 acres and is proposed to develop with 50 single-family detached homes at a gross density
of 1.76 units per acre and a net density of 3.30 units per acre with an average lot size of 13,444
s.f. The third phase consists of 10.66 acres and is proposed to be platted as one large lot that will
be developed at a later date under a separate application by the property owner. This portion of
the site is under separate ownership from the rest of the site and was previously illegally split off,
therefore,it's ineligible for development until included in a subdivision to create a legal lot for
development purposes.
Existing Structures/Site Improvements:
There are no existing structures or site improvements on this property other than a private
drainage facility on Lot 6,Block 6.
Page 8
Proposed Use Analysis:
Single-family detached dwellings are listed as a principal permitted uses in both the R-2 and R-4
zoning districts per UDC Table 11-2A-2: Allowed Uses in the Residential Districts.
Dimensional Standards (UDC 11-2A):
Development of the proposed lots is required to comply with the dimensional standards of the R-
2 district in UDC Table I1-2A-4 and the R-4 district in(UDC Table 11-2A-5), as applicable.
Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards (UDC 11-6C-3):
Development of the subdivision is required to comply with the subdivision design and
improvement standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3, including but not limited to streets and block
face.
Block faces are limited to 750' in length without an intersecting street or alley but may extend up
to 1,000' where a pedestrian connection is provided as set forth in UDC 11-6C-3F.3. City Council
may approve a block face up to 1,200' in length where block design is constrained by certain site
conditions that include a large waterway or irrigation facility;block faces over 1,200 feet require
a waiver from Council. A 90 degree turn in a roadway may constitute a break in the block face;
however, overall pedestrian and vehicular connectivity will be considered when evaluating the
appropriateness of block lengths greater than 750' in length—additional pedestrian and/or
roadway connections may be required.
The face of Block 3 exceeds 1,200' and does not provide a pedestrian connection other than the
emergency access driveway which may serve as a pedestrian connection between the proposed
subdivision and Shafer View Estates to the south. The Applicant requests City Council
approval of the proposed block length due to existing site constraints that include the
following: 1)the narrow configuration of the subject property; 2)the location of the
McBirney Lateral, a large waterway/irrigation facility,that runs along the southern
boundary and through the western portion of the proposed subdivision; and 3)the existing
Shafer View subdivision that abuts the site to the south,south of the lateral,which does not
include any pedestrian pathways or stub streets to this property.If not approved,the plat
should be reconfigured to comply with this standard.An emergency access road for Fire
Dept. is proposed between the end of the cul-de-sac and E. Shafer View Rd. but it's not a public
access.
The cul-de-sac length complies with UDC standards.
Access(UDC 11-3A-3)
Direct lot access is proposed via E. Shafer View Dr.,an existing local street along the southern
boundary of the site, for the lots south of the McBirney Lateral;the lots north of the lateral will be
accessed via two(2)accesses from E. Quartz Creek St., a planned collector street along the
northern boundary of the site. The UDC(11-3A-3)restricts and limits access points to collector
streets where access to a local street is available. Local street access is not available to the
northern portion of the proposed development. Due to the configuration of the property,without
the easterly second access,the cul-de-sac would exceed the maximum length standard of 500'
allowed by the UDC(11-6C-3B.4). Therefore, Staff is supportive of the proposed accesses.
An emergency access for the Fire Dept. is proposed between the cul-de-sac and E. Shafer View
Drive. A public street connection is not proposed to E. Shafer View Dr. for several reasons,
including the following: 1)residents in Shafer View Estates were strongly opposed to the
connection; 2)modification to the McBirney Lateral would be necessary to design a public road
in that location and the lateral is under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) and
the process for modifications to their canal and an encroachment on their easement is very time
consuming(i.e. 12+/-months)with no guarantees of approval; 3) approval from Nampa-Kuna
Page 9
Irrigation District would also be needed has they have irrigation piping located in this area as
well;4)a public road through that area would require a new pump system for the Shafer View
Estates irrigation system as the road would go through the existing pump system—moving the
pump system would also require moving/modifying a large BOR irrigation pipe that feeds the
irrigation pump station; and 5)the cost of design and irrigation infrastructure work required to put
in a public road is estimated to be $100,000.00 to$150,000.00(see Applicant's explanation for
more detail). For these reasons, Staff does not recommend a connection is provided.
Access to the R-2 zoned portion of the site is anticipated to be provided from the east as that
portion of the site is planned to develop with the Apex development to the east.
Direct lot access via S.Meridian Rd./SH-69 and E. Quartz Creek St. is prohibited.
Parking(UDC 11-3C):
Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table 11-
3C-6 for single-family detached dwellings based on the number of bedrooms per unit.
The proposed street sections accommodate on-street parking on both sides of the streets for guests
in addition to driveway parking spaces on each lot. Staff is of the opinion sufficient parking can
be provided for this development.
Pathways(UDC 11-3A-8):
A 10' wide detached multi-use pathway is proposed as required within the street buffer along S.
Meridian Rd./SH-69 per UDC 11-3H-4C.4 and the Pathways Master Plan. The pathway is
required to be placed in a 14-foot wide public use easement,which shall be submitted to the
Planning Division prior to submittal for City Engineer signature on the final plat(s)for
Phase 1.If the pathway will be located entirely within the right-of-way, a public pedestrian
easement is not needed.
Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-1
Sidewalks are required to be provided adjacent to all streets as set forth in UDC 11-3A-17. Where
the multi-use pathway is required along S. Meridian Rd./SH-69,the pathway may take the place
of the sidewalk. A combination of attached and detached sidewalks are proposed within the
development as depicted on the landscape plan.
Parkways (UDC 11-3A-1 :
Eight-foot wide parkways are proposed along all internal public streets where detached sidewalks
are proposed. All parkways should be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-
3A-17E.
Landscaping(UDC 11-3B):
A 35-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to S. Meridian Rd./SH-69, an entryway corridor;
and a 20-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to E. Quartz Creek St., a collector street, as
proposed. Landscaping is required to be installed within the buffer per the standards listed in
UDC 11-3B-7C,which require buffers to be planted with a mix of trees and shrubs, lawn,or other
vegetative groundcover. Street buffer landscaping is proposed in excess of UDC standards as
shown on the landscape plan in Section VII.C.
Common open space is required to be landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-
3G-3E. At a minimum, one tree per 8,000 square feet of common area is required to be provided
along with lawn or other vegetative groundcover. Landscaping is proposed in excess of UDC
standards as shown on the landscape plan in Section VII.C.
Landscaping is required adjacent to the pathway along S. Meridian Rd./SH-69 per the standards
in UDC 11-3B-12C. A 5' wide landscape strip is required on both sides of the pathway planted
with a mix of trees, shrubs, lawn and/or other vegetative ground cover. The Landscape
Page 10
Requirements table should include the linear feet of pathway with the required vs.proposed
number of trees to demonstrate compliance with UDC standards.
Landscaping is required within parkways per the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-17 and 11-3B-
7C. The Landscape Requirements table should include the linear feet of parkways within
the development with the required vs.proposed number of trees to demonstrate compliance
with UDC standards.
There are existing trees on this site at the fronts of Lots 1-5,Block 6 along E. Shafer View Dr. If
any of these trees are proposed to be removed,mitigation may be required per the standards listed
in UDC 11-313-1OC.5. Contact the City Arborist,Matt Perkins,prior to removing any trees from
the site to determine mitigation requirements.
Noise Mitigation (UDC 11-3H-4D):
Noise abatement is required for residential uses adjoining state highways as set forth in the
standards listed in UDC 11-3H-4D.
A 4-foot tall berm with a 6-foot tall solid wall by Simtek is proposed along S. Meridian Rd. as
noise abatement as depicted on the detail on Sheet L 1.0 of the Landscape Plan. Architectural
elements are proposed to break up monotonous wall planes as required. A detail of the proposed
wall that demonstrates eomplionee with the standftFds listed in UDC 11 3H 4D should be
submitted with the final plat for-the first phase of development.—Depicted on the revised
landscape plan.
Qualified Open Space(UDC 11-3
A minimum of 10%qualified open space meeting the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-313 is
required for developments over 5 acres in size. Based on the area of the plat, 39.01 acres, a
minimum of 3.90 acres of qualified open space is required.
A total of 5.26 acres(or 18.55%) of common open space is provided within the overall
development,4.05 acres(or 14.27%) of which is qualified per the standards in UDC 11-3G-3B,
which exceeds UDC standards(see open space exhibit in Section VILD). Qualified open space
consists of half the street buffer along S. Meridian Rd./SH-69, all of the street buffer along E.
Quartz Creek St., 8-foot wide parkways, linear open space, and open grassy areas of at least 50' x
100' in area. Lot 9,Block 3 does contain a pond but it does not encompass more than 25%of the
required open space area as required. The pond is required to have recirculated water and
should be maintained such that it doesn't become a mosquito breeding ground as set forth
in UDC 11-3G-3B.7.
Qualified Site Amenities(UDC 11-3G1
A minimum of one(1) qualified site amenity is required for developments over 5 acres in size
and up to 20 acres,with one(1)additional amenity required for each additional 20 acres of
development area.
Based on a total of 39.01 acres of development area, a minimum of one(1)qualified site amenity
is required. A multi-sport court,tot lot, gazebo shade structure and segment of the City's multi-
use pathway system is proposed in excess of UDC standards.
Storm Drainage:
An adequate storm drainage system is required in all developments in accord with the City's
adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Design and construction is required to follow
Best Management Practices as adopted by the City. The Applicant submitted a Limited
Geotechnical Engineeringeport for the subdivision.
The preliminary plat depicts an existing private drainage facility and existing&proposed ACHD
drainage facilities and easements.
Page 11
Pressure Irrigation(UDC 11-3A-1 :
Underground pressurized irrigation water is required to be provided for each and every lot in the
subdivision as required in UDC 11-3A-15.
Utilities (UDC 11-3A-21):
Utilities are required to be provided to the subdivision as required in UDC 11-3A-21.
Waterways(UDC 11-3A-6):
The McBirney Lateral is a large open waterway that lies within a 41-foot wide easement along
the southern boundary of the site and through the western portion of the site. Another waterway
38' wide) exists on the eastern portion of the site between the proposed R-2 and R-4 zoned
property within r€eet wide NNUP a-ad B m easement;the Applicant verified with the Boise
Project Board of Control that the waterway is not within an easement. This project is not within
the flood plain.
The UDC allows waterways such as this to remain open when used as a water amenity or linear
open space as defined in UC 11-1A-1; otherwise,they are required to be piped or otherwise
covered per UDC 11-3A-613. The decision-making body may waive this requirement if it finds
the public purpose requiring such will not be served and public safety can be preserved.
The Applicant is not proposing to improve the McBirney Lateral as a water amenity or
linear open space but is proposing to install a 6-foot tall wrought iron fence along the
waterway to deter access to the waterway and ensure public safety. The Applicant requests
approval of a waiver from Council to allow the waterway to remain open and not be piped.
The Applicant states the Boise Project Board of Control opposes any improvements within
their right-of-way.The other waterway should be piped or improved as a water amenity or
linear open space as required.
Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6 and 11-3A-7)•
All fencing is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-6C for fencing along
waterways and the general fencing standards in 11-3A-7.
A mix of 6-foot tall wrought iron and 6-foot tall solid vinyl fencing is proposed adjacent to
common areas; 6-foot tall wrought iron fencing is proposed along the McBirney Lateral. There
appears to be gaps in the fencing along the lateral on common lots that abut the waterway;
fencing should be included in these areas to prevent access to the waterway and to ensure
public safety.
Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual):
Conceptual building elevations have not yet been prepared for this development. However,the
Applicant did submit several sample photos of 2-story homes that will be similar to those
constructed in this development, included in Section VII.E. Single-family detached dwellings are
exempt from the design standards in the Architectural Standards Manual.
Because homes on lots that abut S.Meridian Rd. and E. Quartz Creek St.will be highly
visible,the rear and/or side of structures on lots that face those streets should incorporate
articulation through changes in two or more of the following: modulation(e.g.projections,
recesses, step-backs,pop-outs),bays,banding,porches,balconies,material types,or other
integrated architectural elements to break up monotonous wall planes and roof lines that
are visible from the subject public street. Single-story structures are exempt from this
requirement.
