Re: CPAM 12-005 Cavanaugh
The Idaho Transportation Department has reviewed the referenced comprehensive plan
amendment for the Cavanaugh project site on Victory Road near SH-69 (Meridian Road).
ITD has the following comments:
l) ITD has no objection to a local jurisdiction's changes to a land use plan. The proposed
change to the comprehensive plan requires no ITD-related mitigation.
2) ITD has an access management plan for SH-69 (Meridian Road). The plan does not
include any access to SH-69 between Victory Road and Harris Street. The applicant's site
plan should consider ITD's access management plans.
3) The proposed change in land use is a net reduction in site-generated trip volume that has an
important impact on the regional roadway system. The conversion from employment /
commercial center to residential development separates homes from employment
opportunities and increases the average journey-to-work and home-to-shopping trip
distance. Although this project is relatively small, the cumulative impact of such
rezone/comprehensive plan changes will certainly increase regional travel demand and
necessitate additional investment in the transportation system. These incremental changes
to the development plans incur a regional cost to expand the roadway network. This site's
location on the regional highway system could have provided some benefit in improving
accessibility and reducing both travel distance and the number of trips.
If you have any questions, you may contact Matt Ward at 334-8341 or me at 334-8377.
Sincerely,

RE: CPAM 12-005/Cavanaugh
Dear Jaycee
Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District (NMID) requires that a Land Use Change Application be filed,
for review, prior to final platting. Please contact Suzy Hewlett at 466-7861 for further information.
All laterals and waste ways must be protected. The District's Ridenbaugh Canai (south boundary)
and Kennedy Lateral (east side) course through this proposed project. The District's easement for
the Ridenbaugh Canal at this location is a minimum of one hundred feet (100'), fifty feet (50') each
side of the centerline. The easement for the Kennedy Lateral is fifty-five feet (55'}; twenty feet
(20') left and thirty-five feet (35') right of centerline facing downstream. These easements must
be protected. Any encroachment without a signed License Agreement and approved plan
before any construction is started is unacceptable.
All municipal surface drainage must be retained on site. If any municipal surface drainage leaves
the site, the Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District (NMID) must review drainage plans. The
developer must comply with Idaho Code 31-3805.

RE: Land Use Change Application -Cavanaugh
Please note the District now requires three (3) sets of plans
Dear Mr. Seel:
Enclosed please find a Land Use Change Application for your use to file with the
Irrigation District for its review on the above-referenced development. If this
development is under a "rush" to be finalized, I would recommend that you submit a
cashier's check, money order or cash as payment of the fees in order to speed the
process up. If you submit a company or personal check, it must clear the bank before
processing the application.
Should this development be planning a pressure urban irrigation system that will be
owned, operated and maintained by the Irrigation District, I strongly urge you to
coordinate with Greg G. Curtis, Water Superintendent for the Irrigation District,
concerning the installation of the pressure system. Enclosed is a questionnaire that you
must fill out and return in order to initiate the process of contractual agreements between
the owner or developer and the Irrigation District for the ownership, operation and
maintenance of the pressure urban irrigation system.
if you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to call on me at the
District's office, or Greg G. Curtis, at the District's shop.
Sincerely,
Suzette Hewlett, Asst. Secretary/Treasurer
