VIL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
This property is designated "Medium Density Residential" and "Low Density Residential" on the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Medium density residential areas are anticipated to
contain between three and eight dwellings per acre. Low density residential areas are anticipated to
contain up to three dwellings per acre. The proposed preliminary plat includes 117 single-family lots
on 40.99 acres for a total gross density of 2.85 dwelling units/acre which is more consistent with the
LDR land use designation. Because the majority of the property is designated as LDR, staff is
supportive of the proposed density of the property.
Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to
the proposed use(staff analysis in italics):
• "Support a variety of residential categories (low-, medium-, medium-high
and high-density single-family, multi-family, townhouses, duplexes,
apartments, condominiums, etc.) for the purpose of providing the City
with a range of affordable housing opportunities."(3.07.01E)
The proposed single-family detached dwellings will contribute to the variety of housing types
available within the City.
• "Permit new development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time
of final approval and development is contiguous to the City."(3.01.01F)
Sewer is available to this property under the temporary arrangement that was made for the
Southern Highlands and Whitebark Subdivisions. However, the Public Works Department
states there is only sufficient capacity to construct an additional 16 homes on this temporary
service until additional capacity is provided via the extension of the southwestern leg of the
Ten Mile Trunk Sewer, or if additional capacity identified in the new Wastewater Master
Planning effort that is scheduled to be completed later this year. Water is available from the
stub street from the north, but public works requires a looped water system that would
require the project to have access to water in E. Lake Hazel Road. Water in E. Lake Hazel
Road will not be available to this property until March 2018 at the earliest unless the
applicant constructs the necessary infrastructure.
• "Require common area in all subdivisions."(3.07.02F)
The proposed plat depicts a total of 8.41 acres (or 20.5%) of qualified open space in accord
with the requirements listed in UDCl1-3G-3.
• "Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect local roads and collectors
to adjacent properties (stub streets). (3.03.020)
The proposed plat depicts a connection to an existing stub street from the north through the
Blackrock Subdivision. The applicant is proposing to provide one stub street to the north
(NEC) and one to the west. Staff recommends an additional stub street to the west in order to
provide greater access to the undeveloped properties to the west.
• "Support infill of vacant lots in substantially developed, single-family areas at densities
similar to surrounding development."(3.07.02I)
3 1 P a g e
East Ridge Estates Subdivision— H-2016-0137
The subject property is adjacent to existing low density homes and similar lot sizes to the
north in Blackrock Subdivision. The overall density for the project falls within the parameters
of the LDR land use designation and the surrounding residential developments.
• "Require pedestrian access connectors in all new development to link subdivisions together to
promote neighborhood connectivity as part of a community pathway system."(3.03.03B)
The applicant is proposing a mix of 5-foot detached and attached sidewalks that will connect
to existing sidewalks to the north, south, and west.
• "Reduce the number of existing access points onto arterial streets by using methods such as
cross access agreements, access management and frontage/backage roads."(3.03.02N)
The submitted plat depicts one access point to E. Lake Hazel Road as well as connecting to
one (1) existing stub streets (E. Cyanite Drive).The plat also depicts a common driveway
connection to E. Lake Hazel Road, which staff does not support. Staff recommends that the
applicant provide another means of access to the SEC of the development.
• "Require new residential development to meet development standards regarding landscaping,
signage, fences and walls, etc."(3.05.02C)
Street buffer landscaping is required adjacent to E. Lake Hazel Road in accord with the
standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. Separate permits shall be obtained for signage and
fencing in compliance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3D-5 and 11-3A-7 respectively.
• "Coordinate with public works,police, and fire departments on proposed annexation and
development requests,and the impacts on services."(3.04.01H)
Staff has coordinated with public works,police and fire and has incorporated their comments
and conditions in this report.
• "Restrict private curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets."(3.06.02D)
The applicant has proposed to construct a common drive to E. Lake Hazel Road. The
common drive would provide access to three (3) lots. Staff is not in favor of this design as the
Master Street Map designation for this segment of E. Lake Hazel Road is a five(5) lane
"Residential/Mobility Arterial."Staff recommends that Lots 43, 44 and 45, Block I take
access from E. Cyanite Drive, or that these lots remain as non-buildable lots until such time
as the property to the east redevelops and additional vehicular access is provided.
• "Ensure development provides safe routes and access to schools,parks and other community
gathering places."(3.07.02N)
Staff is requiring the applicant to install the frontage improvements along frontage of E. Lake
Hazel Road with the second phase. The surrounding area is not Currently developed,
however the Parks Department has plans to construct a park near the SWC of this property,
with plans to commence construction in May of 2018. Stafffeels that the sidewalk and
landscape buffer should be installed to provide greater pedestrian access to the park
facilities.
• "Elevate/enhance quality of residential site and subdivision planning." (3.07.02)
Staff has included the following recommended changes to the plat to enhance the quality of
the design:
1. Staff recommends that Lots 43, 44 and 45, Block I take access from E. Cyanite Drive, or
that these lots remain as non-buildable lots until such time as the property to the east
redevelops and additional vehicular access is provided.
4 1 P a g e
East Ridge Estates Subdivision— H-2016-0137
2. Provide an additional stub street to the west property line from S. Genoard Avenue.
For the above stated reasons, staff finds the proposed project is consistent with the goals and
objectives in the Comprehensive Plan.

IX.ANALYSIS
A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation:
1. Annexation&Zoning
The applicant has applied for annexation and zoning of 40.99 acres of land with an R-8 zoning
district.As discussed above in Section VII, staff believes the proposed zoning is consistent with
the policies in the Comprehensive Plan.
The applicant proposes to develop 117 new single-family residential detached homes on 40.99
acres of land as shown on the preliminary plat included in Exhibit A.2.
The legal description submitted with the application, included in Exhibit C, shows the boundaries
of the property proposed to be annexed. The property is contiguous to land that has been annexed
into the City and is within the Area of City Impact boundary.
The City may require a development agreement(DA)in conjunction with an annexation pursuant
to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. In order to ensure the site develops as proposed with this
application, staff recommends a DA as a provision of annexation with the provisions included in
Exhibit B.
5 1 P a g e
East Ridge Estates Subdivision— H-2016-0137
2. Preliminary Plat
The proposed plat consists of 117 building lots and 14 common lots on 40.99 acres of land in a
proposed R-8 zoning district(see Exhibit A.2). The property is proposed to develop in 5 phases,
(see Exhibit A.2). The gross density for the subdivision is 2.85 d.u./acre. The lots range in size
from 6,600 square feet to over 12,500 square feet,with an average lot size of 9,475 square feet.
Dimensional Standards: Development of this site is required to comply with the dimensional
standards listed in UDC 11-2A-3 and Table 11-2A-6 for the R-8 district. Staff has reviewed the
proposed plat and found it to be in compliance with those standards.
Phasing Plan: The applicant is proposing to develop the East Ridge Estates Subdivision in five
(5) phases. Phase 1 is to commence off the stub street from E. Cyanite Drive and generally
continue from the north to the south. The fifth and final phase along the northern boundary
will include an additional stub street to the north. The phase of development will be non-
buildable until such time as the property to the north is developed. In general staff is
supportive of the proposed phasing plan.
Block Length: The plat is required to comply with the block length standards listed in UDC 11-
6C-3F. Staff has reviewed the proposed plat and found it to be in compliance with the
aforementioned standards.
Access: Access is proposed for this site via one access from E. Lake Hazel Road and via the
extension of an existing stub street from Blackrock Subdivision(E. Cyanite Drive).
Streets: All of the proposed streets depicted on the plat are public.A total of 50-feet of right-of-
way is proposed to be dedicated to ACHD from the centerline of E. Lake Hazel Road abutting the
site and the pavement is required to be widened to 17 feet from centerline where it doesn't
currently exist in addition to a 3-foot wide gravel shoulder abutting the site.
Staff recommends that the applicant provide an additional stub street on the west boundary
to provide additional access to future development. Staff also recommends restricting
development in the NEC and SEC of the property until adjacent properties are developed
and additional vehicular access is provided.
Common Driveways: The applicant is proposing seven(7)common driveways in this project.
All common driveways should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3D. Staff has
reviewed the dimensions of the common driveways depicted on the plat and they are consistent
with these standards except for the common driveway that proposed to provide access to Lots 43-
45,Block 1 to Lake Hazel Road. Staff recommends that the applicant reconfigure the southeast
corner of the plat so that Lots 43,44 and 45,Block 1 take access from E. Cyanite Drive, or that
these lots remain as non-buildable lots until such time as the property to the east redevelops and
additional vehicular access is provided.
A perpetual ingress/egress easement is required to be filed with the Ada County Recorder,
which shall include a requirement for maintenance of a paved surface capable of supporting
fire vehicles and equipment.
For any plats using a common driveway,the setbacks,building envelope,and orientation of
the lots and structures are required to be shown on the preliminary plat and/or as an
exhibit with the final plat application.
Traffic Impact Study(TIS): The applicant provided staff with a Traffic Impact Study
which was reviewed by ACHD.
Plat Improvements: Staff feels that the plat as proposed by the applicant should be improved in
the following ways:
6 1 P a g e
East Ridge Estates Subdivision— H-2016-0137
1. Staff recommends that Lots 43, 44 and 45, Block I take access from E. Cyanite Drive, or
that these lots remain as non-buildable lots until such time as the property to the east
redevelops and additional vehicular access is provided.
2. Provide an additional stub street to the west property line from S. Genoard Avenue.
3. Include a note on the final plat that restricts the development of Lots 46-52 of Block I
until parcel#R0988260490 develops.
Parking: Off-street parking is required on each residential lot in accord with the standards listed
in UDC 11-3C-6. Because of the reduced street sections proposed on the plat,parking is restricted
to one side o£
• Cyanite Drive south of Gisborne Street terminating in a cul-de-sac.
• Genoard Avenue north of Gisborne Street terminating in a cul-de-sac.
• Genoard Avenue south of Collingwood Street terminating in a cul-de-sac.
• Collingwood Street east of Genoard Avenue terminating in a cul-de-sac.
• Maesaia Way, located approximately 400-feet west of the east property line, terminating in a
cul-de-sac.
Per ACHD and the Fire Department. Signage should be installed accordingly.
Landscaping: A landscape plan was submitted with this application for the area proposed to be
platted as shown in Exhibit A.3.
A 25-foot wide street buffer is required along E. Lake Hazel Road, an arterial street,per UDC
Table 11-2A-6 and is required to be landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-
3B-7C. The buffer width along E.Lake Hazel Road should be measured from the back of
curb per UDC 11-3B-7C.la(2); or,the ultimate curb location as determined by ACHD if
future road widening is anticipated; revise plans accordingly.
Landscaping within the common areas is required in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-
3G-3E. The landscape plan shall be revised to include one (1)tree for every 8,000 square feet of
Lot 41,Block 1.
Landscaping is required along all pathways in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-313-
12C. Pathway landscaping is depicted on the plan along all micropaths within the development.
Tree Mitigation: If there are existing trees on the site that are proposed to be removed, the
applicant should contact Elroy Huff, City Arborist, at 888-3579 to schedule an appointment to
confirm mitigation requirements prior to removal of any trees on the site. The applicant shall
submit a tree mitigation plan with the final plat application.
Parkways: Eight-foot wide parkways are proposed in all areas where detached sidewalks are
proposed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-17E.
Open Space: A minimum of 10%qualified open space is required to be provided for this
development in accord with UDC 11-3G-3A.1. Based on the area of the preliminary plat(40.99
acres), a minimum of 4.09 acres of qualified open space is required to be provided as set forth in
UDC 11-3A-3B.A total of 8.41 acres(or 20.52%) of qualified open space is proposed consisting
of the street buffer along E. Lake Hazel Road,the micropath lots and internal common open
space areas including the nature path and associated naturally vegetated area,which appears to
comply with this requirement.
Site Amenities: All developments consisting of five acres of more are required to provide a
minimum of one site amenity; one additional site amenity is required for each additional 20 acres
7 1 P a g e
East Ridge Estates Subdivision— H-2016-0137
per UDC 11-3G-3A.2,in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3C. Based on the area of
the preliminary plat(40.99 acres), staff requires a minimum of 2 qualified site amenities be
provided. The applicant proposes to provide a plaza and raised overlook area,as well as a covered
picnic area, several seating areas along the nature path and a water amenity.
Fencing: All fencing should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-6B and 11-3A-7.
The applicant shall construct fencing as proposed.
Per UDC 11-3A-7A.7,the developer is responsible to construct fencing adjacent to
micropath connections to distinguish common from private areas.
Sidewalks: Sidewalks are required along all public streets as set forth in UDC 11-3A-17. The
applicant proposes to construct a combination of 5-foot wide attached and detached sidewalks
throughout the development in accord with UDC standards.
Pathways: According to the Pathways Master Plan, a multi-use pathway clips the SWC of this
property. Parks is currently reviewing the pathways in this area due to the upcoming construction
of the South Meridian Regional Park and are therefore not requiring a multi-use pathway at this
time.
Utilities: Sewer is available to this property under the temporary arraignment that was made for
the Southern Highlands and Whitebark Subdivisions. However, the Public Works Department
states there is only sufficient capacity to construct an additional 16 homes on this temporary
service until additional capacity is provided via the extension of the southwestern leg of the Ten
Mile Trunk Sewer, or if additional capacity identified in the new Wastewater Master Planning
effort that is scheduled to be completed later this year. Water is available from the stub street
from the north, but public works requires a looped water system that would require the project to
have access to water in E. Lake Hazel Road. Water in E. Lake Hazel Road will not be available to
this property until March 2018 at the earliest unless the applicant constructs the necessary
infrastructure. Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission and City
Council review this project in the context of the availability of utilities and make a
determination as to whether it is in the best interest of the City to annex this property at
this time.
Street lighting is required to be installed within the development in accord with the City's
adopted standards, specifications and ordinances.
Pressurized Irrigation(PI): An underground PI system is required to be provided to each lot in
the subdivision as proposed in accord with UDC 11-3A-15. The applicant is requesting to use city
water for irrigation purposes. The applicant shall provide a letter from the applicable irrigation
district stating that the property does not have water rights.
Storm Drainage: A storm drainage system is required for the development in accord with the
City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Design and construction shall follow best
management practice as adopted by the City in accord with UDC 11-3A-18.
Topography: The existing homes in Blackrock Subdivision to the northwest of this site are
located on a ridge approximately 20-40 feet above the proposed subdivision.The proposed
home elevations will range from 18 to 25 feet below the first floor elevations of adjacent
Blackrock homes,per the applicant.
Lots 11-19,Block 2 have a 40-foot wide slope easement along the rear lot lines.This area is
proposed to be maintained by the individual homeowners and should be landscape and
maintained in a consistent manner. Staff has concerns about how the homes will be sited on
these lots.Prior to Commission the applicant shall provide an exhibit showing a cross
section for these lots as well as demonstrating how a home will fit.
8 1 P a g e
East Ridge Estates Subdivision— H-2016-0137
The applicant shall also provide a master grading plan for the site with the first final plat
application.
Building Elevations: The applicant has submitted three(3) conceptual sample building
elevations for future homes in this development,included in Exhibit A.4. Building materials
appear to consist of a mix of board and batten and horizontal lap siding with shake shingle and
stone accents.
Because homes on lots that back up to E. Lake Hazel Road will be highly visible, staff
recommends the rear or sides of structures on lots that face the street incorporate
articulation through changes in materials, color, modulation, and architectural elements
(horizontal and vertical)to break up monotonous wall planes and roof lines.
In summary, Staff recommends approval of the proposed annexation and preliminary plat request
for this site with a development agreement and the recommended conditions listed in Exhibit B of
this report in accord with the Findings contained in Exhibit D.
