Certificate of zoning compliance application to add a kiosk and pharmacy drive-
thru to the existing building.
In response to your request for comment, the Ada County Highway District (ACRD) Planning
Review staff has reviewed the submitted application and site plan for the item referenced above.
The District has no comment on the site improvements at this time due to the fact that all street
improvements exist abutting the site.
If the site plan or use should change in the future, ACRD 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 ACRD Development
Review Section to insure compliance with the conditions identified above and/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 ACRD and will be due prior to the issuance of a
building permit. Contact ACRD Planning 8< 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 ACRD.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (208) 387-6171.
Sincerely,
