John Deere Landscaping City of Meridian
2755 E. Lanark St. City clerk office
On April 10, 1996, the Ada County Highway District Commissioners acted on Olson & Bush Subdivision
#2. The conditions and requirements also apply to MCZC-04-049.
On February 9, 2004, the District reviewed MCZC-04-001 which was an application for a John Deere
Landscaping Business at 2790 E. Lanark Street. District Development Review staff have issued a
plans acceptance for that project and the impact fees were paid on May 19, 2004. If the current
application for the facility at 2755 E. Lanark, is a change in location for the previously approved
application, the applicant shall coordinate any further review and approvals with District Development
Review staff.
It appears that the applicant is proposing to extend Lanark Street to abut the site at 2755 E. Lanark, but
is not proposing to extend Lanark Street as required with the subdivision plat all the way to the west
property line. A temporary turnaround will be required for this project at the proposed terminus of
Lanark Street.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact this office at (208) 387-6174.

through the right-of--way be installed to accommodate H-25 loading.
7. Both stub streets will be required to have temporary paved turnarounds with temporary
easements provided to the District.
Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being

required width of 30 to 40-feet to at least 30-feet beyond the edge of pavement of Lanark Street.
