Newkirk Neighborhood
Narrative
Attached for your review and favorable consideration are the applications for the Newkirk
Neighborhood located North of Franklin and East of Black Cat Roads. We respectfully request approval
of our Annexation and Zoning, Development Agreement and Preliminary Plat applications.
For design and planning purposes, our design team used the Meridian City Pre-Application Meetings,
Neighborhood Meetings, the Comprehensive Plan, Ten Mile Area Specific Plan and Zoning Code as the
policy basis for the design of the Newkirk Community. We have thoughtfully designed a mix of single-
family and multi-family dwellings in this residential community on 21.41 acres that will add to the
housing mix within the surrounding neighborhoods and will add diversity to Meridian's available housing
opportunities. Homeowners will have access to on-site amenities such as well-appointed parks,
playgrounds, walking pathways and attractive landscaping. Off-site amenities include access to a nearby
charter school, retail, and commercial businesses in the Ten Mile area. This Project will provide well-
appointed homes and apartments on a property that will utilize existing utilities and roads that have
been planned for developments in this area. Newkirk is true infill development.

Exhibit A — Vicinity Map/Comprehensive Plan Map
Newkirk is a community designed specifically for the Ten Mile Planning area. This property is designated
Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) on the future land use map. The Newkirk Neighborhood will
provide a mix of single-family homes and multi-family apartments. This will achieve a perfect mix of
densities for the area and create additional residential housing near the commercial and retail
developments near the Ten Mile Interchange. Residents of Newkirk will enjoy a walkable/bikeable
community that is within a short distance to shopping, healthcare services, employment opportunities
and regional transportation arteries. In our preapplication meetings it was determined that the Newkirk
Neighborhood is within the Mayor's Priority Growth Area and that City Services are available to serve
the project.

Exhibit B - Site Plan
The Newkirk Neighborhood will consist of 62 single-family residential homes and 216 apartments. Newkirk will
provide much needed housing options for future residents who are looking for a centrally located neighborhood
that is highly amenitized. Additional roof tops in this quickly developing area of Meridian will help support the
commercial and retail uses along the Ten Mile Interchange Neighborhood Center.
Pathways and separated sidewalks within the development will encourage walkability through the community as
well as along regional pathways that connect to the neighborhood on the east and west sides. Parks and
amenities will be distributed throughout the development, generously landscaped boulevards and endcaps will
welcome residents' home and create a sense of place and feeling of community.

Exhibit C — Community Amenities
PROJECT AMENITIES
As the developer we have researched and interviewed past homeowners and used the city ordinances as
a guide to plan the most productive amenities for this neighborhood. As typical of our developments,
the amenity package exceeds the requirement of Meridian City Development Code, which requires that
the application have one amenity point per every 5 acres of development acres. We are providing 28.5
points worth of amenities across both neighborhood areas. The Project will consist of two neighborhood
areas the single-family residential and the multi-family Chalets. Below is a list of the amenities for each
development area of the project.
Newkirk Single-Family
We are proposing the following amenities in our large 34 acre Playground Park including: a neighborhood
park with a play structure, climbing dome, climbing rocks, swings, shade structure, passive open spaces,
and seating areas. As with all of our playgrounds it will be fenced with open vision fencing for safety.
Newkirk Chalets
We are proposing the following amenities in our Chalet section of the neighborhood: Club house with
workout center, pool, changing rooms, dog park with cleanup station.

Exhibit G - Preliminary Plat/ Comprehensive Plan Density
PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION
Newkirk will provide homes that are in very high demand in a very desirable part of Meridian. The
Newkirk Neighborhood has a proposed single-family and multi-family combined residential density of
12.98 DU/AC. The Meridian Comprehensive plan calls for 8 to 15 units per acre in the medium high-
density designation of the TMSAP. The proposed density is in the middle of the density range allowed
within the comprehensive plan and therefore meets the desired density planned for this property.
ZONING
After carful consideration of the available zoning districts and the comprehensive plan for the TMSAP
and discussions with City Staff we have decided that the TN-R Zone is the best fir for the homes and
apartments that we wish to build in this neighborhood.
INFRASTUCTURE INVESTMENT
The Ten Mile Interchange Area has had a considerable amount of public and private investment over the
last decade. With the large amount of infrastructure investment in this area, the proximity to schools,
regional parks, Freeway Access and services the Newkirk Neighborhood will be a perfect addition to the
City of Meridian.

Exhibit H — Transportation
The intersections of Balck cat and Franklin Road was widened and inproved a few years ago. Traffic
planning in this area has already considered the development of the Newkirk Property at the housing
densities that have been proposed with this project. A full traffic study has been submitted to ACHD and
is currently under review.
As a part of the first phase of development of the Newkirk Project a major portion of the much-needed
collector roadway (in red below) N. San Marco Way will be constructed. This connection will create a
secondary access between Black Cat and Franklin Roads. This will help to alleviate congestion in the area
due to the Charter School on Black Cat.
It is important to note that the Newkirk Neighborhood will function if the western connection to Black
Cat is constructed or not. The intersections onto Franklin Road have capacity and will function
appropriately until the western connection is made.

Exhibit I — Schools / Emergency Response Times / Utilities
WEST ADA SCHOOL DISTRICT
Due to the small size of home and apartments in the Newkirk Neighborhood it is anticipated that there
will be few school age students generated by the development. The students who will live in Newkirk
Community will attend Chaparral Elementary, Meridian Middle School and the Meridian High School
boundaries all of which are under capacity.
UTILITIES
Municipal water and sewer mains are available and of adequate size to serve the Newkirk Neighborhood
in Franklin Road adjacent to the proposed project. Water and sewer mains will be extended to and
through the Newkirk Neighborhood at the cost of the developer. Dry Utilities such as electrical power,
natural gas, telecom, and cable are also available.
