• Railroad currently has 20-feet of right-of-way abutting the site.
• The public alley currently has 16-feet of right-of-way abutting the site.
9. Existing Access to the Site
There is currently one driveway on 2"d Street located at the north property line.
10. Site History
The District has not previously reviewed this site for a development application.
2
11. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program
There are no projects scheduled in the vicinity of the site in either the District's Capital Improvements
Plan or Five Year Work Program.
B. Findings for Consideration
1. Right-of-Way
2"d Street
District policy requires 54-feet of right-of-way on industrial/commercial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B).
This right-of--way allows for the construction of a 3-lane roadway with curb, gutter and 5-foot wide
concrete sidewalks.
2"d Street currently has 60-feet of right-of--way. No additional right-of-way will be required to be
dedicated with this application.
Railroad and Alley
District policy 7204.10.1 requires the dedication of additional right-of--way to obtain a minimum width
from the centerline of the alley of 8-feet for single-family residential uses and 10-feet for all other
uses.
Railroad (the named alley) has 20-feet of existing right-of-way. No additional right-of-way will be
required to be dedicated with this application.
The alley adjacent to the. east of the site has 76-feet of existing right-of-way. District staff will grant a
modification of policy to not require additional right-of-way dedication for that alley due to the fact that
it terminates at the railroad right-of-way and will not be extended in the future.
2. Street Sections
District policy 7202.8 and 72-F1 B, requires roadways abutting commercial developments to be
constructed as a 40-foot. street section with curb, gutter and 5-foot concrete sidewalk within 54-feet of
right-of--way.
Modification of Policv
The applicant is proposing to widen the pavement to one-half of a 36-foot street section and construct
vertical curb, gutter, and a 5-foot concrete sidewalk abutting the site. District staff will grant a
modification of the required street section (40-foot) to allow the residential standard (36-foot) section
due to the fact that 2"d Street will not be extended in the future, and due to the fact that with the low
volumes, a turn lane will not be needed on this segment of the roadway. The applicant should install
"No Parking" signs abutting the site on Znd Street.
3. Driveways
Location
District policy F2-F4 (1) and 72-F4 (2), requires driveways located on commercial/industrial roadways
to offset a controlled and/or uncontrolled intersection a minimum of 50-feet (measured near edge to
near edge).
The applicant has proposed a paved driveway to be located on 2"d Street at the north property line.
This location meets District policy.
3
•
Pa_ vinq
Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked
onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, the applicant should be required to
pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the
roadway.
4. Alleys
Pavina
District Policy 7204.10.1 states if the proposed development is not a single family detached residence
and it takes access from an alley, the developer will be required to pave the entire width of the right-
of-way from the nearest public street to and abutting the development.
Railroad alley is currently paved. No additional improvements are required to Railroad alley.
The alley adjacent to the east of the site is currently unpaved. The applicant is proposing to pave it
its entire width from Railroad to the north property line. District policy would require that the alley be
paved abutting the site and fo the nearest public street. However, there are several power poles
further north of the site that may prohibit the paving of the alley. In addition the vehicles accessing
this site may exit the area by utilized Railroad alley which is one-way eastbound.
Parking
Access is allowed to and from a fully improved alley (District policy 7204.10.2). Parking shall be
designed so the minimum clear distance from the back of the parking stall to the opposite side of the
alley is 22-feet for perpendicular parking. An access to an alley shall be located a minimum of 25-feet
from the nearest public street.
The proposed parking adjacent to the west of the new auto shop building meets District policy and
should be approved with this application.
C. Site Specific Conditions of Approval

gutter, and a 5-foot concrete sidewalk abutting the site within the existing right-of-way. Install "No
Parking" signs abutting the site on 2"d Street.
2. Construct one 20-foot wide curb cut driveway on 2"d Street located at the north property line. Pave
the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement.
3. Pave the alley its full width abutting the site.

of the Ada County Highway District. The burden shall be upon the applicant to obtain written
confirmation of any change from the Ada County Highway District.
11. Any change by the applicant in the planned use of the property which is the subject of this
application,. shall require the applicant to comply with all rules, regulations, ordinances, plans, or other
