C. History of Previous Actions: In 1995, the 20-foot wide PUDI easement was platted as part of the
Meridian Business Park Subdivision.
Recently, a certificate of zoning compliance (A-2016-0366) was approved to construct a 22,240
square foot truck service bay(2,080 sq. ft.) and warehouse addition(20,160 sq. ft.)to the existing
6,000 square foot building. The proposed warehouse addition is the portion of the building that
encroaches over the easement that needs to be vacated prior to issuance of a building permit.
7. STAFF ANALYSIS
The applicant requests approval to vacate the 20-foot wide public utility, drainage and irrigation
easement platted along the north boundary of Lot 17,Block 2 of Meridian Business Park Subdivision.
As noted above, the applicant is vacating the easement and obtained approval to construct a new
20,160 square warehouse addition that spans the property line and existing easement and encroaches
into the rail corridor (see Exhibit A.2). In order to obtain a building permit, the easement must be
vacated.
All public utilities(Idaho Power, Century Link, Cable One, Intermountain Gas)have given consent to
relinquish their easements. NMID submitted a letter stating they have no facilities within the
easement area. The Planning Division has also received an email from the Railroad Representative
allowing the construction of the addition into the railroad corridor.
Staff recommends approval of vacating the easements as proposed in Exhibit A.3.
