I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Request to vacate the 20' wide landscape easement platted on the south property line of Lots 1&2,
Block 3 of Olson and Bush Subdivision No. 2,by B&A Engineers.
II. APPLICANT INFORMATION
A. Applicant/Representative:
Anna Canning,B&A Engineers—5505 W. Franklin Rd,Boise,ID 83705
B. Owner:
Spencer Hill,Advanced Sign—2700 E. Lanark St.,Meridian, ID 83642
III. STAFF ANALYSIS
In May of 2021, a Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design Review(DES, CZC -A-2021-0055)
was approved for a 62,500 sq. ft. light industrial building on four lots of two different subdivisions
(Lot 1&2,Block 3 of Olson and Bush Subdivision No.2 and Lots 9&10,Block 3 of Olson and Bush
Subdivision No. 3). Although a building can overlay an interior lot line if both lots are under the same
ownership,it was discovered that a 20' landscape easement existed along the southern property line
of the northern lots(Lot 1&2,Block 3 of the Olson and Bush Subdivision No. 2)and the industrial
building would be encroaching on this easement. This landscape easement is referenced in Note 9 of
the plat and was intended to ensure subsequent development was respectful of residential
development to the south. Since the time of the final plat approval,the lot south of the landscape
easement(Lot 11,Block 3 of Olson and Bush Subdivision No. 3)is no owned by the same owner

(although not part of the development)and has since been zoned to C-G. Therefore,the landscape
easement is no longer necessary.
As part of the final approval of the CZC,the applicant is required to vacate the landscape easement by
amending the plat and then merging both lots together by a Property Boundary Adjustment. When
this is completed,the applicant can proceed with applying for a building permit and move forward
with construction of the project.
IV. DECISION
A. Staff:
Staff recommends approval of the vacation of the landscape easement as proposed by the
Applicant by amending Plat Note 9 of the Olson and Bush Subdivision No. 2 as follows:
1. The 20-foot landscape setback on Lots 3 and 4,Block 3 shall be reserved for landscaping
required by the City of Meridian. These lots shall provide landscaping as required by the
City of Meridian.
