PROJECT DESCRIPTION Final plat consisting of 54 buildable lots and 14 common lots on 16.06 acres of land in the R-8 zoning district. II. APPLICANT INFORMATION A. Applicant: Kent Brown,Kent Brown Planning Services—3161 E. Springwood Dr.,Meridian,ID 83642 B. Owner: Union Square,LLC.— 1548 W. Cayuse Creek Dr., Ste. 100,Meridian,ID 83656 C. Representative: Same as Applicant III. STAFF ANALYSIS Staff has reviewed the proposed final plat for substantial compliance with the approved preliminary plat(H-2019-0083—Gander Creek North Subdivision)in accord with the requirements listed in UDC 11-613-3C.2. Because the number of buildable lots are three(3) fewer and the common area is greater than shown on the approved preliminary plat, staff deems the final plat in substantial compliance with the approved preliminary plat as required. Note:Fencing(chain-link or wrought iron) that complies with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-6C was required to be constructed on the south side of the multi-use pathway along the Five Mile Creek for public safety per condition#VIII.A.3e of the preliminary plat. The Irrigation District will not allow fencing between the pathway and the creek so that condition has been removed. Page 1 Page 239 Item#10. IV. DECISION Staff recommends approval of the proposed final plat within the conditions noted in Section VI of this report. V. EXHIBITS A.
