In response to your request for comment, the Ada County Highway District (ACHD) Planning Review
staff has reviewed the submitted application and site plan for the item referenced above. It has been
determined that there are no site specific requirements for you at this time due to the fact that the
proposed development will:
• Generate less than 10 additional vehicle trips per day (VTD) and is not a change in use.
If the site plan or use should change in the future, ACHD Planning Review will review the site plan
and may require improvements to the transportation system at that time.
Prior to final approval you will need to submit construction plans to the ACHD Development Review
Department to insure compliance with the conditions identified above or for traffic impact fee
assessment. This is a separate review process that requires direct plans submittal to the
Development Review staff at the Highway District.
A traffic impact fee will need to be assessed by ACHD and will be due prior to the issuance of a
building permit. Contact ACHD Planning & Development Services at 387-6170 for information
regarding impact fees.
Prior to the construction or installation of any roadway improvements (curb, gutter, sidewalk,
pavement widening, driveways, culverts, etc), a permit or license agreement must be obtained from
ACHD.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (208) 387-6174.
