4. Existing Access: The site is currently undeveloped, but curb returns were constructed in their
approved locations when the roadway was constructed.
5. Site History: ACHD previously reviewed the CUP application for the Jackson's c -store at
the southeast corner of Pine Avenue and Eagle Road.
Development Impacts
6. Trip Generation: This development could generate up to 15,000 vehicle trips per
day based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation
Manual. This estimation does not include pass -by trips and is only an
estimation because exact uses are not known.
Impact Fees: There will be an impact fee that is assessed and due prior to issuance of any
building permits. The assessed impact fee will be based on the impact fee
ordinance that is in effect at that time.
8. Traffic Impact Study: A traffic impact study would normally be required with this application.
However, studies have recently been submitted for the development at the southwest corner of
Eagle & Pine, and for a proposed development at the northeast corner of Locust Grove and Pine.
Information from those studies is provided under Facts & Findings.

10. Construction of Pine Street
This segment of Pine Street was constructed in 2003 through a developer cooperative agreement. The
roadway was constructed to a width for 5 -lanes, but striped for 3 -lanes at this time, until traffic volumes
warrant more lanes. Sidewalk was constructed along the north side of the roadway at that time
because that area is developed as residential subdivisions. Sidewalks were not constructed along the
south side of the roadway because it was determined that sidewalks could be installed when this
property developed. The roadway is striped for bike lanes.
11. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program
Locust Grove Road, Franklin to Fairview: Construct 5 -lanes in 2006, includes signalization of
Locust Grove/Pine intersection
Locust Grove Road, Overland to Franklin and Overpass: Construct 4 to 5 -lanes in 2006.
Hickory/Fairview Intersection: Signalization in 2005/2006.
e- Franklin Road from Eagle Road to Touchmark is currently under construction to 5 -lanes.
-*- Franklin Road from Touchmark to Five Mile Road is scheduled for widening to 5 -lanes in 2009.

2. Right -of -Way & Sidewalk
Policy: District policy requires 96 -feet of right-of-way on arterial roadways (Figure 72 -Fl B). This
right-of-way allows for the construction of a 5 -lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5 -foot concrete
detached sidewalks and bike lanes.
District policy requires 7 -foot wide attached (or 5 -foot detached) concrete sidewalk on all collector
roadways and arterial roadways (7204.7.2).
Staff Comment/Recommendation: Pine Avenue is fully improved with the exception of sidewalk
on the south side of the roadway; no additional right-of-way is required to be dedicated with this
application. The applicant should construct a 7 -foot wide attached sidewalk or a 5 -foot wide
detached sidewalk with a minimum 5 -foot wide landscape buffer. Provide a sidewalk easement for
sidewalk located outside of the right-of-way.
I Eagle Road
Eagle Road is under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Transportation Department. The applicant should
contact ITD to determine what improvements will be required on Eagle Road (SH 55) and what
access will be allowed.
4. Driveways
Location Policy: District policy 72-F4 (1) requires driveways located on arterial roadways near a
signalized intersection to be located a minimum of 440 -feet from the signalized intersection for a
full -access driveway and a minimum of 220 -feet from the signalized intersection for a right-in/right-
out only driveway. Beyond the signalized intersection, driveways should be located to align or
offset a minimum of 150 -feet from any existing or proposed driveways or streets, based on a 35
MPH posted speed limit.
Width Policy: District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes
over 1,000 vehicles to a maximum width of 36 -feet. Most commercial driveways will be constructed
as curb -cut type facilities if located on local streets. Curb return type driveways with 15 -foot radii will
be required for driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways.
Staff Comment/Recommendation: Driveway approaches were installed on Pine Street when the
roadway was constructed in 2003. No new approaches (for driveways or streets) are approved with
this application. Where possible, cross access agreements should be provided to allow multiple
access points to Pine Street and the proposed public roadways.
5. Proposed Public Road
Applicant Proposal
The applicant is proposing to construct a public roadway with a cul-de-sac, located approximately
400 -feet west of the east property line. The proposed street section for this roadway is a 36 -foot
wide street within 50 -feet of right-of-way.
Staff Recommendation/Analysis
The roadway location should be approved as proposed. The roadway will not provide connectivity,
but will provide access for proposed lots within the subdivision. The roadway should be constructed
to commercial roadway standards, as a 40 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot
wide concrete sidewalk, within 54 -feet of right-of-way. Access to this road should be located a
minimum of 50 -feet south of Pine Street.
6. Proposed Public Road "to be Constructed by Others"
Applicant Proposal
The preliminary plat indicates a north -south roadway "to be constructed by others".
Staff Recommendation/Analysis
The plans for this roadway have been reviewed and approved by ACHD. The road will provide
secondary access to businesses on Commercial Court, and is being paid for and constructed by
several parties. ACHD is not a part of that private agreement. This roadway will provide critical
signalized access to Eagle Road for trucks returning to the freeway system. This roadway is a
requirement with this plat, and it shall be improved and dedicated prior to final plat approv;Z.
The roadway location should be approved as proposed. It appears that previously constructed curb
returns located adjacent to the roadway will need to be closed with standard curb and gutter to
match existing improvements.
The roadway should be constructed to commercial roadway standards, as a 40 -foot street section
with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalk, within 54 -feet of right-of-way. Access
to this road should be located a minimum of 50 -feet south of Pine Street.
7. Other Access
Pine Avenue is classified as a minor arterial roadway. Other than the access points specifically
approved with this application, direct access to Pine Avenue is prohibited and shall be noted on the
final plat.
C. Site Specific Conditions of Approval
1 Construct a 5 -foot wide detached concrete sidewalk with a minimum 5 -foot wide landscape strip, or
construct a 7 -foot wide attached concrete sidewalk, abutting the site on Pine Street. Provide a
sidewalk easement for sidewalk located outside of the right-of-way.
2. No new Pine Street approaches (driveways or streets) are approved with this application, with the
exception of the location for the proposed street connection to Commercial Court. Provide cross
access agreements throughout the subdivision to allow multiple access points to Pine Street and
the proposed public roadways.
3. Construct a north -south public road located approximately 400 -feet west of the east property line as
proposed
4. Construct a north -south public road at the end of Commercial Court to intersect Pine Street. The
roadway location should be approved as proposed. Construct the roadway as a 40 -foot
local/commercial street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalk, within
54 -feet of right-of-way.
5. Close the existing curb return adjacent to the proposed north -south public street with standard curb
and gutter to match existing improvements.
6. Access to the proposed north -south roadways shall be located a minimu of 50 -feet South of Pine
Street.
Other than the access points specifically approved with this application, direct access to Pine
Avenue is prohibited and shall be noted on the final plat.
8. Comply with requirements of ITD for the Eagle Road (SH 55) frontage. Submit to the District a
letter from ITD regarding said requirements prior to District approval of the final plat or issuance of a
building permit (or other required permits), whichever occurs first. Contact District III Traffic
Engineer Dan Coonce at 334-8340.
Comply with all Standard Conditions of Approval.
D. Standard Conditions of Approval
Any existing irrigation facilities shall be relocated outside of the right-of-way.
2. All utility relocation costs associated with improving street frontages abutting the site shall be borne
by the developer.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. All design and construction shall be in accordance with the Ada County Highway District Policy
Manual, ISPWC Standards and approved supplements, Construction Services procedures and all
applicable ACHD Ordinances unless specifically waived herein. An engineer registered in the State
of Idaho shall prepare and certify all improvement plans.
6. The applicant shall submit revised plans for staff approval, prior to issuance of building permit (or
other required permits), which incorporates any required design changes.
Construction, use and property development shall be in conformance with all applicable
requirements of the Ada County Highway District prior to District approval for occupancy.
8. Payment of applicable road impact fees are required prior to building construction in accordance
with Ordinance #200, also known as Ada County Highway District Road Impact Fee Ordinance.
9. 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 (1-800-342-1585) at least two full business days prior to breaking
ground within ACHD right-of-way. The applicant shall contact ACHD Traffic Operations 387-6190 in
the event any ACHD conduits (spare or filled) are compromised during any phase of construction.
10. 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 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 regulatory and legal restrictions in force at the time the applicant or its successors in interest
advises the Highway District of its intent to change the planned use of the subject property unless a
waiver/variance of said requirements or other legal relief is granted pursuant to the law in effect at
the time the change in use is sought.

SECTION 02930 EXTERIOR PLANTS
PLANTING TREES AND SHRUBS:
General:
Plant nursery stock immediately upon delivery to site and approval by Architect except, if not feasible, heel
in all bare root and balled material with damp soil and protect from sun and wind.
Regularly water all nursery stock in containers and place them in cool area away from sun and drying
winds.
Excavation:
Planting pits shall be circular with diameter one foot greater than diameter of ball of tree. Depth of pit shall
be enough to accommodate ball or roots of tree when tree is set to finish grade, allowing for 6 inches of
compacted topsoil below roots of plant. In no case shall depth of tree pits be less that 24 inches below
finish grade.
At holes more than 12 inches deep, probe by hand to determine if mechanical auger will hit any in-place
utilities.
TREE PLANTING:
Before setting trees, pits shall be backfilled with topsoil to depth of 6 inches thoroughly tamped and
watered.
Place plants at such level so that after settlement, natural relationship between original grade at which
plant grew, and present one shall be same.
Plant trees plumb oriented for desired effect as directed by Architect.
Tamp topsoil under and around base of each ball to fill voids, and place in 6 to 8 -inch layers, each
thoroughly tamped and puddled. Remove burlap from sides and top of balls and adjusted to prevent air
pockets. Pull burlap from under balls.
When planting bare root trees, take care to work topsoil in around roots and to spread them in natural
position before backfilling.
Form shallow basin or saucers, little larger than diameter of ball, around trees to hold additional water.
SHRUB PLANTING:
Plant shrub materials in same relation to the finish grade as they had before transplanting.
Depth of holes, as hereafter specified, shall be understood to be depth below finish grade. Balled and
burlapped plants shall have topsoil tamped under balls.
Remove burlap, roses, staves, etc., from sides and tops of balls and remove from hole before backfilling;
pull no burlap out from under balls.
Do not leave roots of bare root plants matted together, but arrange them in natural positions and work
topsoil in among them.
Remove broken and frayed roots by trimming.
Tamp backfill of topsoil in successive 8 -inch layers. When hole has been 2/3 backfilled, pour water in
filling hole and allow to soak away so that voids or air pockets under or around the roots are eliminated.
After the water has soaked away, backfill hole with topsoil. After the backfill settles, fill in additional soil to
level of finish grade. Form shallow saucer of soil around edge of each hole to hold additional water.
GROUND COVER; Plant ground cover in beds of minimum depth of topsoil of 6 inches with lightly
compacted soil. Evenly space and set to finished grade, after settlement.
