The average daily traffic count for S. Ten Mile Road north of W. Overland Road was
8,717 on May 27, 2009.
The average daily traffic count for W. Overland Road east of S. Ten Mile Road was
3,051 on January 13, 2010.
C. Findings for Consideration
1. Plans and Studies
South Meridian Transportation Plan
The South Meridian Transportation Plan (SMTP) is a long range planning tool used to identify
future roadway, intersection, and corridor needs in the South Meridian Area. Providing a
framework for future roadway improvements based on the land use designations. The plan was
created in collaboration with the City of Meridian and was adopted by the ACRD Commission in
September of 2009.
2. S. Ten Mile Road
a. Existing Conditions: S. Ten Mile Road is improved with 2-travel lanes and no curb, gutter or
sidewalk abutting the site. However, this segment of S. Ten Mile Road is part of the Five Year
Work Plan and is to be widened to 5-lanes in late 2010, early 2011 with curb, gutter and
3 Barletta Subdivision
sidewalk. There is currently 73-feet of right-of-way for S. Ten Mile Road (25-feet from
centerline), with an additional 31-feet of right-of-way in the acquisition stage abutting the
property. This will bring the total right-of-way abutting the site to 106-feet.
b. Policy
Arterial Roadway Policy: District Policy 7203.4.3 states that if a proposed development
abuts an arterial street, the developer shall provide sidewalk along the paved frontage and
dedicate right-of-way required by the proposed land use and scale of the project.
Right-of-Way and Street Section Policy: District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on
arterial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 5-lane
roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot wide concrete detached sidewalks and bike lanes.
Sidewalk Policy: District policy requires 7-foot wide attached (or 5-foot wide detached)
concrete sidewalk on all collector roadways and arterial roadways (7204.7.2).
c. ACRD Master Street Map: ACRD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map
(MSM) guide the right-of-way acquisition, collector street requirements, and specific roadway
features required through development. This segment of Ten Mile Road is designated in the
MSM as a Planned Commercial Arterial with 5-lanes and on-street bike lanes, an 82-foot
street section within 108-feet of right-of-way.
d. Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to dedicate 56-feet of right-of-way from the
centerline of S. Ten Mile Road.
e. Staff Comments/Recommendations: Staff is currently working with the applicant in
acquiring right-of-way in conjunction with the S. Ten Mile Road widening project. The
applicant should be required to have the right-of-way documents signed before ACHD
Commissioners signature on the final plat.
The applicant would normally be required to construct a 5-foot wide detached concrete
sidewalk abutting the site. However, since the S. Ten Mile Road widening project has already
been designed and given its anticipated start date staff recommends a modification of policy
to allow the applicant to either: a) provide ACHD with a road trust deposit in the amount of
$2,100 (two-thousand one-hundred dollars) for the cost of constructing the sidewalk or b)
delay the completion of their project until the contract for construction has been formally
awarded.
District Policy 7203.4.5 states that if a proposed development abuts a street that the District
has programmed for improvement, the developer will have no financial requirement for
improvements of the abutting street if:
a. The District has formally awarded a contract for the construction of the street
improvements before the development application is received; and
b. The District's project includes all improvements required by the DEVELOPMENT
POLICY MANUAL.
The anticipated start date for the S. Ten Mile Road project is late 2010 to early 2011, with
expected bids for construction to be received in October of 2010. ACRD can give the
applicant no guarantees regarding these projected start dates, however barring any
unforeseen delays this should provide the applicant sufficient time to complete their hearing
process with the city of Meridian. This will allow the applicant to submit their final
development applications with the District after the formal awarding of the S. Ten Mile Road
construction contract and thus negate the requirement of condition #2 as stated in the Site
Specific Conditions of Approval.

3. Private Roads
a. Private Road Policy: District policy 7205.6 states that other jurisdictions in Ada County
establish the requirements for private streets. The District retains authority and will review the
proposed intersection of a private and public street for compliance with District intersection
policies and standards.
b. Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to access the site from Davis Lane, an
existing private road.
c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: Davis Lane is a private road with 24-feet of pavement.
As it is today, Davis Lane does not meet ACHD standards for public streets. Even if Davis
Lane were re-built to ACHD standards the District would still not accept it as a public roadway.
This is due to the fact that the roadway would not serve a public benefit since it most likely will
never be extended or stubbed to an adjacent property in the future. This is due to the
Ridenbaugh Canal which wraps around the exterior boundary of the subdivision and Davis
Lane.
ACRD does not make any assurances that the private road, which is a part of this application,
will be accepted as a public road if such a request is made in the future. Substantial redesign
and reconstruction costs may be necessary in order to qualify this road for public ownership
and maintenance.
The following requirements must be met if the applicant wishes to dedicate the roadway to
ACHD:
• Dedicate a minimum of 50-feet of right-of-way for the road
• Construct the roadway to the minimum ACRD requirements
• Construct a stub street to the surrounding parcels
4. Tree Planters
Tree Planter Policy: Tree Planter Policy: The District's Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in
planters less than 8-feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be
allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be
allowed in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet.
5. Landscaping
Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within
ACHD right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all
public storm drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in
the vision triangle at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and
a 3-foot height restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-
foot offset from stop signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and
must meet all District requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil
plans.
D. Site Specific Conditions of Approval
1. Dedicate 56-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of S. Ten Mile Road abutting the parcel.
The right-of-way purchase and sale agreement and deed must be completed and signed by the
applicant prior to scheduling the final plat for signature by the ACHD Commission or prior to
issuance of a building permit (or other required permits), whichever occurs first. Allow up to 30
business days to process the right-of-way dedication after receipt of all requested material. The
District will purchase the right-of-way which is in addition to existing right-of-way from available
Corridor Preservation Funds.
5 Barletta Subdivision
2. Provide the District with a road trust in the amount of $2,100 (two-thousand one-hundred
dollars) for the future construction of a 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk. Sidewalk is to be built in
conjunction with the S. Ten Mile Road street widening project.
3. Comply with all Standard Conditions of Approval.
E. Standard Conditions of Approval
1. Any existing irrigation facilities shall be relocated outside of the ACHD right-of-way.
2. Private sewer or water systems are prohibited from being located within the ACHD right-
of-way.
3. In accordance with District policy, 7203.6, the applicant may be required to update any
existing non-compliant pedestrian improvements abutting the site to meet current
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. The applicant's engineer should
provide documentation of ADA compliance to District Development Review staff for
review.
4. Replace any existing damaged curb, gutter and sidewalk and any that may be damaged
during the construction of the proposed development. Contact Construction Services at
387-6280 (with file number) for details.
5. A license agreement and compliance with the District's Tree Planter policy is required for
all landscaping proposed within ACRD right-of-way or easement areas.
6. All utility relocation costs associated with improving street frontages abutting the site shall
be borne by the developer.
7. It is the responsibility of the applicant to verify all existing utilities within the right-of-way.
The applicant at no cost to ACHD shall repair existing utilities damaged by the applicant.
The applicant shall be required to call DIGLINE (1-811-342-1585) at least two full business
days prior to breaking ground within ACRD right-of-way. The applicant shall contact
ACHD Traffic Operations 387-6190 in the event any ACRD conduits (spare or filled) are
compromised during any phase of construction.
8. Utility street cuts in pavement less than five years old are not allowed unless approved in
writing by the District. Contact the District's Utility Coordinator at 387-6258 (with file
numbers) for details.
9. All design and construction shall be in accordance with the ACHD Policy Manual, ISPWC
Standards and approved supplements, Construction Services procedures and all
applicable ACHD Standards unless specifically waived herein. An engineer registered in
the State of Idaho shall prepare and certify all improvement plans.
10. Construction, use and property development shall be in conformance with all applicable
requirements of ACHD prior to District approval for occupancy.
11. No change in the terms and conditions of this approval shall be valid unless they are in
writing and signed by the applicant or the applicant's authorized representative and an
authorized representative of ACRD. The burden shall be upon the applicant to obtain
written confirmation of any change from ACHD.
12. If the site plan or use should change in the future, ACHD Planning Review will review the
site plan and may require additional improvements to the transportation system at that
time. Any change in the planned use of the property which is the subject of this
application, shall require the applicant to comply with ACHD Policy and Standard
Conditions of Approval in place at that time unless awaiver/variance of the requirements
or other legal relief is granted by the ACHD Commission.
6 Barletta Subdivision
F. Conclusions of Law
1. The proposed site plan is approved, if all of the Site Specific and Standard Conditions of
Approval are satisfied.
2. ACHD requirements are intended to assure that the proposed use/development will not place an
undue burden on the existing vehicular transportation system within the vicinity impacted by the
proposed development.
