RE: The Hollows Subdivision
Dear Shari:
On behalf of Bond and Shelli Campbell, we are submitting this application for a variance for a 12
single-family residential subdivision on 5.60 acres located on the north side of Ustick Road
approximately 1/2 mile east of Meridian Road, Meridian, Idaho.
The variance would allow for The Hollows Subdivision to not pipe an open irrigation ditch on the
west boundary line of the parcel. The property line of the subject parcel lies in the middle of the
open ditch. The bordering property owner currently irrigates his fields out of this ditch. If the ditch
is piped he can no longer flood irrigate. The developer has to fence off the ditch as a condition of
the preliminary plat. This would prevent access to the ditch from the subdivision. The current
layout of the irrigation ditch to the subject property is not a result of the developer's actions. The
developer had no say in the design of the ditch.
The variance does not conflict with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. The developer does not
expect to profit in any way from the granting of this variance other than the cost of the pipe
subtracted from the development costs. Profit and convenience are not the sole reason for this
variance request, supplying irrigation water to the adjacent property owner is.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter, please call me at (208) 887-7760.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey L. Manship
Land Use Planner

Corrie: Motion made and seconded to approve the final request of 00-016 of
Packard Subdivision No. 4 and have the attorney draw up the proper orders and
put the staff comments of approval. Any further comments? Discussion? Okay.
Roll -call vote, Mr. Berg.
Roll -call: Bird, aye; McCandless, aye; Anderson, aye; De Weerd, aye.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Item 18. Public Hearing: VAR 00-021 Request for a variance to not pipe
an open ditch that borders the subject parcel on the west boundary
in The Hollows Subdivision by Bond and Shelli Campbell — north
of Ustick Road '/2 mile east of Meridian Road:
Corrie: Item No. 18 is a public hearing on a variance request to not pipe an open
ditch that borders the subject parcel on the west boundary in the Hollows
Subdivision by Bond and Shelli Campbell — the variance number 00-021. At this
time I'll open the public hearing and staff comments first.
Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Council, this is for a property that's currently zoned R-3 in
the City. They are proposing not to pipe the ditch that runs adjacent to the west
property line. Apparently, the property owner here uses that ditch for irrigation.
I'm not sure if it's irrigation or drainage. I'd like Gary to address some of the
concerns that we have with that in regard to moving it onto the adjacent property.
There is a requirement on this subdivision to have a 15 -foot wide berm
completely surrounding the property and the adjacent property owner was here
earlier. I don't know if he's still here. Jeff, is he here? Is he here? The adjacent
property owner was here. I'm not sure if he is aware of all the implications of not
piping this ditch. He was a little concerned because he says he has sprinkler
system running all the way up nearly to his property line, so maybe Mr. Manship
can address that a little more fully, but since these were conditions of the plat,
and they are ordinance requirements, we didn't prepare a staff report for you, but
I would like Gary to address the issue of the implications of not piping that ditch.
Smith: Thank you, Mayor and Council. The Preliminary Plat shows the property
line for this subdivision down the center of that ditch and as you know, the
ordinance requires that a ditch — all ditches crossing a property are immediately
adjacent there too are to be piped. That's the reason for this variance request. I
am not sure how this ditch is utilized by the adjacent property owner. If the ditch
is piped, and he uses this as a live -water ditch, and it appears from the
photograph that that's the case, then there are pertness (sic) that can be
attached to pipes to allow irrigation from the pipe, such as an Orchard Valve — or
Orchard Valves. The other issue that — if this ditch is moved off the property line
onto the property to the west, or to your left as you look at the photograph, then
there would need to be an approval by the property owner to go to the left side
Meridian City Council Meeting
September 19, 2000
Page 76
for that move. It would also encumber the property owner to the left to pipe at
some future date if he so decided to develop or someone else decided to
develop — that requirement would then be with that property owner. So there are
a couple of implications with this ditch. I don't know how much water that ditch is
carrying. It looks like a pretty good size ditch, but it's not large enough to not
pipe as required by the ordinance, which we've said is a 48 -inch. If it exceeds
48 -inch, then its excepted.
Anderson: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Anderson.
Anderson: I guess I have got to ask the obvious question here. What's the
problem with piping the ditch?
Manship: Jeff Manship, Pinnacle Engineers, 870 North Linder Road. This
request is by the adjacent property owner. He wants to continue doing that.
Another reason for him not wanting to pipe it is apparently he has sprinkler lines
running right up to the lip of the ditch on the left side and believes if it was piped
and equipment was in there, it would ruin it and he doesn't want to deal with that.
He likes to continue to flood irrigate with open water like that. Currently, like I
said, this is a request by the property owner to keep that open. I did get a com
back from Nampa Meridian Irrigation District. "Dear Commissioners, the above
mentioned lateral or irrigation ditch would not exceed the 48 -inch maximum pipe
size under the City of Meridian's present ordinance." That's the only comment
they had on that.
Anderson: I guess I'm confused. You said he has sprinkler heads run right up to
the edge of the ditch but then you were saying he flood irrigates. Is there a
sprinkler system or a flood irrigation?
Manship: I'll let the developer answer that question for you.
Campbell: I'm Bond Campbell, 1150 East Ustick Road in Meridian, property
owner to what would be the east of this property. He flood irrigates this portion
which is basically pasture, but he irrigates with sprinklers the portion from the
front to the back of the house to the fence. So he's got sprinklers on a portion of
it, but he flood irrigates this front and he flood irrigates a portion of the back out of
this ditch.
Bird: Okay. He's got a pump down there?
Campbell: No pump. He just basically ferules the embankment wherever he
wants the water to come out.
Meridian City Council Meeting
September 19, 2000
Page 77
Bird: But how does he sprinkler? He's got to have some kind of a pump set up
back there.
Campbell: Yes, off of his well for his sprinklers for his house.
Bird: Oh. It's not coming off the ditch?
Campbell: No.
Anderson: And how many feet a yard is that back there at the end that he's
doing with the sprinkler system?
Campbell: There's probably 100 feet there and there's probably another 100 or
more feet of pasture behind that and this is probably — deceiving from this picture
but this is probably maybe 600 feet from the edge of the grass to the front. It's a
combination of yard and pasture split up into three sections.
Anderson: And what size pipe would it take to pipe that or tile that ditch?
Campbell: I believe, in our original Preliminary Plat, it was 12 -inch pipe. Does
that show on this plat? I believe it was 12 -inch pipe. Maybe 14.
Bird: That's an awful large —
Anderson: You can move a lot of water through a —
Campbell: This ditch is deceiving because of it's width / depth ratio. It's a fairly
shallow ditch compared to its width.
Bird: Now tell me — I'm being dense, which isn't uncommon, but why by tiling
that ditch is going to hurt his sprinkler system if he sprinkles off his well?
Campbell: Again, I don't know all of his reasons for recommending to us that we
not tile that ditch. Obviously, if it were you or me, we probably appreciate that
improvement to our property. I really don't understand his — that's one of his
explanations but I don't know if that's all of his reasoning. All I can say is we're
just trying to take care of all the property owners on this ditch situation.
Bird: Where is that ditch originally from?
Campbell: It originates from the corner of South Locust Grove and Ustick Road
and it runs —
Bird: Does it come across Dr. Johnson's on the corner there?
Meridian City Council Meeting
September 19, 2000
Page 78
Campbell: It goes across — it goes north on Locust Grove to the back of Dr.
Johnson's. Then it comes across the back of Doc Johnson's, across the back of
Pepper's onto my property.
Bird: Then it starts to slow down there.
Campbell: And then it actually goes north again a little ways all the way across
the northern boundary of my property and then all the way back to Ustick Road.
Bird: What about silt and stuff, Gary?
Smith: I don't know if there's a silt problem in the ditch or not, Councilman Bird. I
think that silt problem we had was the type of soil that they had and the type of
crop that they had — that they were irrigating and they were just running a lot of
water. In looking through the file on some of the letters that came in, there was
some concern expressed by downstream water users on the headgate area, the
northeast corner of this project, also that they were concerned that they had the
right headgate ultimately constructed and that they had access to that headgate.
I know that doesn't really deal with this request, but it's the same ditch. Just
listening to what Bond had to say, if the property owner to the west of this — I
mean the reasoning for not piping the ditch — I don't know what they would be. If
he flood irrigates, the Orchard Valves can be installed in that pipe and then he
can flood out of those Orchard Valves. If they've got a berm scheduled for along
this west side anyway, that ditch is either going to have to be moved or piped. It
certainly can't stay in it's present location just because the property line is down
the middle of the ditch.
Corrie: Is the Hollows willing to give up that? It looks like the Hollows will be
giving up that eventually.
Campbell: I'm not opposed to keeping the ditch where it is and moving my fence
basically where the fence line is now. My only question is then, if there's
property on the opposite side of the fence, that I'm basically letting him use — If
the City doesn't have a problem with that, I don't have a problem with that only
because my lots are all over 100 feet deep. Actually, the shallowest one — I
believe those lots average about 146 feet deep, so I thought about that and I'm
not opposed to that — if we can leave the ditch where it is, keep him happy,
satisfy the requirements of the City and just construct a new fence where the
existing fence is, I'm not opposed to giving up that two to three feet of property.
Bird: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I think Council just brought up a good point. You can't put a fence over a
pipe to irrigate a pipe anyway, so —
Meridian City Council Meeting
September 19, 2000
Page 79
Corrie: You'd have to put the fence on that side anyway. Anybody else in the
public? I don't think there is. Any other comments or questions of Council and
the applicant and staff?
De Weerd: No.
Corrie: Hearing none. I'll entertain a motion to close the public hearing on Item
17, the variance.
Bird: So moved.
De Weerd: Second.
Corrie: Okay. Motion made and seconded to close the public hearing on the
Variance No. 00-2021. All those in favor, say aye.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Corrie: Council.
Bird: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Bird.
Bird: A comment. As I understand it from Mr. Campbell, with the blessing of our
department, if our staff, we could — he's willing to just go down that existing fence
line with his property and just leave that open and — I don't know from legalities
what you have to do. Would you have to — What would we have to do for
legalities on that? It probably wouldn't be anything to us, anyway. It would be
between him and the owner to that. It would affect the plat, though, wouldn't it?
Yes.
Stiles: They'll have to increase their easements on the exterior boundary
because they'd still have to have 10 foot.
Bird: Can that be done within the staff level or can it be done when we approve
the plat?
Stiles: It could be when you do approve the plat. I would just ask that you do
one thing if you're going to approve this variance. Since the property owner
adjacent was here wanting to testify and left — not that I'm not saying Bond's not
telling us what's right, but since he's not here, could this approval be contingent
on receiving a notarized approval from that property owner to leave it open — that
it's at his request and that he realizes that if he re -subdivides or redevelops his
property, he will have the sole responsibility for paying for that ditch. Just
Meridian City Council Meeting
September 19, 2000
Page 80
because he's not here — and he may not realize what the implications of not
piping that ditch are. No, we can't do that.
Nichols: Mr. Mayor, members of the Council. Councilman Bird asked me if the
public hearing had to be reopened and I don't believe so. I think it's been stated
that the reason for the variance, and it's in the record already is that the neighbor
requested and so if you wanted to make a condition of granting the variance that
Council — or excuse me — staff received a notarized statement to that effect, we
can write it in that way. So we'll go ahead and (inaudible)
Anderson: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Anderson.
Anderson: We have these City Ordinances and the ordinance clearly states that
either you tile a ditch this size or you make it an amenity and the prerequisite for
doing away with that is if it creates a hardship. To me, nobody has shown that it
creates a hardship here. It's just a matter of personal preference. Yes, if you
have a choice to spend the money and tile a ditch, no, you aren't going to do it. I
don't see where the hardship has been shown in this case and I guess it would
be my recommendation that we not grant a variance here.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor. I agree with Councilman Anderson. There is no proven
hardship and that's what our ordinance and variances are for.
Corrie: Any other discussion? Let's close the public hearing.
Bird: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I also agree that it's in the ordinance, but when you got the guy that owns
half of that ditch that the property line is running right down the half and he don't
want it tiled, I don't know — maybe if they don't want to tile it, maybe Mr.
Campbell ought to go out and deed that two or three foot of that over to him. But,
I agree if the ordinance — you know — when you don't own the whole property and
it's a boundary line and stuff and the guy that — I know if I was that property
owner and have that nice house sitting out there and even if I wanted to flood
irrigate, I wouldn't want the thing piped either.
Anderson: But we're not eliminating that. They can still have access to it by
putting the gates in the pipe and still flood irrigate.
Bird: Oh. I realize that, but
Meridian City Council Meeting
September 19, 2000
Page 81
Anderson: And it's pretty clear to me Nampa / Meridian's suggestion is that they
think it ought to be piped. Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Anderson.
Anderson: Just to move things forward, I would make a motion that we instruct
the City Attorney to draw up Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law denying
this variance — that hardship has not been shown for the Hollows Subdivision by
Bond and Shellie Campbell.
McCandless: I'll second that.
Bird: Motion made and seconded to deny the variance request and have the
attorney draw up the Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law to that denial.
Any further discussion? Hearing none. Roll -call vote, Mr. Berg.
Roll -call: Anderson, aye; De Weerd, aye; Bird, aye; McCandless, aye.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Item 19. Public Hearing: VAR 00-022 Request for a variance to use
Meridian City water for irrigation in The Hollows Subdivision by
Bond and Shelli Campbell — north of Ustick Road '/2 mile east of
Meridian Road:
Corrie: Item No. 19 is a public hearing on the variance request to use Meridian
City water for irrigation in The Hollows Subdivision and variance number 00-022.
At this point I'll open the public hearing with staff comments first.
*** End of Side 6 ***
Smith: - basis and that's the reason for the request to utilize city water for
sprinkler irrigation of the lots. These lots are 12 — 13,000 square feet. They're
probably similar in size to a lot of the lots in Meridian Greens Subdivision.
Apparently, they have indicated that they're going to have a pressurized irrigation
system. I'll ask the developer, I guess, to address that, but if that's the case and
City Water is used as the principal source, then there would be a single point
connection and back-flow device at that point of connection. With the availability
of ditch water, we've got to address it or may have already addressed this same
matter on Ted Hepper's subdivision just — Is that just to the east of you Bond?
Yes. It's the same ditch. So I've got a similar situation there with just intermittent
water flow. The alternative and the reason that I mentioned this pressurized
irrigation system for the subdivision is that someday, there could be water
available for this subdivision and for Hepper's subdivision. The only issue with
that is how the distribution system is sized and laid out and where the point of

On behalf of Bond and Shelli Campbell, I am writing to request that we could be heard at the
October 17, 2000 City Council meeting regarding the Hollows Subdivision. The two issues that we
would like to discuss are about the pressurized irrigation system and the well development fee.
Both of these issues are related to the variance that was passed about using Meridian City water for
irrigation.
