1 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: Mayor and Boise City Council Hal Simmons Planning Director Boise City Planning and Development Services Department DATE: April 24, 2006 RE: CAR / Rezone / 4041 N. Edelweiss Street The following application has been scheduled for May 9, 2006: Mike Homan requests approval for a rezone of ±3.8 acres located at 4041 N. Edelweiss Street from A-1 (Open Land) to R-1C (Single Family Residential). Action on this request was deferred at Planning and Zoning to allow the developer to submit a development agreement addressing the number and size of lots in the development. The development agreement limits future development to no more than10 buildable lots. CAR /DA The Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the rezone request at the January 23, 2006 public hearing. Please see the attached documents for your review. TABLE OF CONTENTS Summary Vicinity Map / Plat Map Action letter Minutes from the Public Hearing Staff Report (January 23, 2006) Staff Report (February 13, 2006) Agency Comment Public Comment

2 CAR / DA 4041 North Edelweiss Street City Council SUMMARY The applicant is requesting a zone change from A-1 to R-1C. The subject property has no previous zoning application history and is comprised of one parcel surrounding an existing single-family dwelling and accessory buildings, which directly front on Edelweiss. The applicant indicated that the property would be subdivided upon approval of the rezone. The applicant has submitted a concurrent request for a preliminary plat for Fairview Point Subdivision (SUB ). The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. The development agreement, as submitted, suggests limiting the total buildable lots to 10. Staff supports the limitation due to Planning and Zoning Commission direction, though the area can support higher densities. Densities of around 4.0 dwelling units per acre are supported by the Comprehensive Plan; these densities surround the property throughout the larger vicinity of the parcel. The rezone is supported by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan as Goal 8.0 suggests the City should strive to minimize suburban sprawl, which provides for a diverse mixture of lifestyles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and efficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The proposed rezone would maintain and preserve the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. No agencies have responded stating that the proposed rezone will adversely impact the delivery of services. Connectivity: Streets, Pathways and Sidewalks Entry to the subdivision is from Edelwiess Street, an existing public street abutting the easterly boundary of the subject site. The site is accessed by a road serving the proposed subdivision through a pole portion of a flag lot, which was formed through a lot split. This rezone application is accompanied by a subdivision request. The subdivision report addresses the issues of connectivity. The report indicates there is no need to stub to adjacent parcels as they are fully developed, with little likelihood to redevelop in the future. Thus, stub street or pedestrian connections were not proposed to be included in the corresponding subdivision application. ACTION BY PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION The Commission recommended approval of CAR / DA.

3 CAR / DA 4041 North Edelweiss Street City Council MAJOR ISSUES DISCUSSED The rezone request generated a significant amount of controversy among surrounding property owners. At the first Planning and Zoning meeting on January 23, 2006, Commissioner Russell suggested that the applicant return with a development agreement that would address number of units, unit design and unit setbacks. This suggestion did not accompany a formal motion and the public hearing remained open. The applicant returned with a development agreement reducing the density by limiting the total buildable number of lots to ten but did not address the other items suggested by the commission. Staff supported the revised request on February 13, Following a discussion on the merits of the rezone, the Commission made a formal motion to approve the rezone with a development agreement to limit the pending subdivision to ten buildable lots. The applicant was in agreement with staff s conclusions as outlined in the staff report. The request was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Possible additions to the development agreement may include a clause limited peripheral second story windows, and detailing the placement of homes on the individual lots.

Edelweiss Street Dear Mr. Homan: This letter is to inform you of the action taken by the Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission on your request for a rezone of 3.8 acres from A-1 (Open Land) to R-1C (Single Family Residential) for property located at 4041 N. Edelweiss Street. This request was deferred from the February 6 th hearing to the February 13 th hearing in order to allow the developer to submit a Development Agreement addressing the number and size of lots in the development. The Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission, at their meeting on February 13, 2006, recommended to the Mayor and the Boise City Council, approval of the request based on the attached Reasons for the Decision and Conditions of Approval. This application will be considered by the Boise City Council to establish a public hearing date. You will be notified of the established hearing date. If you have any questions, please contact this department at (208) Sincerely, Angela Wood Planning Analyst II Boise City Planning and Development Services Department AW/bjc Attachment cc: Landmark Eng. & Planning/Ste.

6 CAR /4041 N. Edelweiss Street Planning and Zoning Commission Recommended of Rezone Page 2 of 2 Reasons for the Decision (for Ordinance Publication) The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. The rezone is supported by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan as Goal 8.0 suggests the City should strive to minimize suburban sprawl, which provides for a diverse mixture of lifestyles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and efficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The proposed rezone would maintain and preserve the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. The rezone will not have a negative impact on the public transportation system. Conditions of Approval 1. The development agreement shall be reviewed by legal staff prior to the city council hearing. The applicant must work with legal staff to revise the language contained within the draft to be acceptable and final. 2. The development agreement must include a conceptual revised plat not exceeding 10 buildable lots. The diagram must be labeled PLAT EXHIBIT. 3. The development agreement will limit the residential density to no more than 10 dwelling units on the area of land which is the subject of the rezone. 4. Proof of recording must be submitted by the applicant prior to the third reading of the rezone ordinance by the Boise City Council. Failure to record the development agreement within the time frame shall automatically render approval of the rezone null and void. 5. The rezone shall be to R-1C/DA (Single Family Residential with a Development Agreement). 6. Prior to any building permit application for development on this site that requires R-1C zoning, the rezone to R-1C/DA shall be approved by the Boise City Council, published as a legal notice, and the development agreement recorded.

Staff Members Present Angela Wood, Carl Miller, Cody Riddle, Susan Riggs, Scott Spjute, Vicki Van Vliet, Mary Watson (Legal). CAR /Mike Homan Location: 4041 N. Edelweiss St. REZONE 3.8 ACRES FROM A-1 TO R-1C. SUB /Fairview Point Subdivision Location: On the west side of N. Hartman south of Goldenrod and west of Cloverdale 18-LOT, SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION. Angela Wood The subject property is located in West Boise off of Edelweiss. This road is accessed off of Ginger Creek to the south and off of Goldenrod to the north, and these are reached from Cloverdale Road. Currently the subject site is undeveloped but does surround an existing single family residence. The area can be characterized as having single family uses on varied lot sizes. The subject property is currently zoned A-1 which is open land with a maximum density of 1 dwelling unit per acre. The applicant requests a zoning designation of R- 1C which is single family residential with a maximum density of 8 dwelling units per acre. The property indicates that this area was annexed into the City of Boise in Many circumstances have changed since that time. At that time the area was characterized by low density uses with Ginger Creek Subdivision to the south and having a density of less than 1 unit per acre. Now the property is surrounded by subdivisions constructed or under construction to the north. Staff does support recommending approval of this rezone to the City Council as the rezone request meets their approval criteria. The first finding requires that the request complies with and conforms to the Comprehensive Plan. This finding has been met. Policy indicates that zone change requests consistent with the Land Use Matrix should be approved. The land use designation is low density residential and you can see by the grid that R-1C is a compatible zoning designation. Goal 8.0 of the Comprehensive Plan indicates that compatibility with the Land Use Matrix is important and the R-1C zone is an allowable zoning designation within the map. The applicant has submitted a concurrent subdivision request. Fairview Point

8 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 2 Subdivision does have a proposed density of 3.94 dwelling units per acre which is also compatible with the Land Use Matrix. This low density residential land use designation applies to most of the residential areas within the City of Boise and this indicates 5,000 sq. ft. lot lots with an overall target density of 4 units per gross acre. Planned unit developments, accessory dwelling units and the application of infill standards may allow higher densities. This is not the case in this request. Chapters 7, 8 and 10 discuss preserving community quality as Boise s population grows. These goals include providing for housing with diversity and type, density, location and economic scale. The Comp Plan also seeks to encourage the development of the city, the preservation of neighborhoods and the conservation of identity. The Comp Plan seeks to insure that growth occurs in orderly manner, in a planned and directed way, and that public services are available. The second finding is to provide and maintain sufficient transportation or public service facilities. Comments from public agencies indicate that this request will not place an undue burden on existing transportation and service facilities in the vicinity. I would like to note that no comments from the public school system have been received, but they have been requested. Fire service and utility infrastructure is available. The third finding for a rezone is to maintain compatibility and preserve the compatibility of surrounding zoning and development. This is the issue within this request that has received the most scrutiny from the public. That public comment has surrounded concerns over density, unimproved sidewalks, the school system, compatibility with regard to density, transitional zoning and misrepresented notification from the developer. The Commission has received s dated January 23, 2006 this evening. Currently the zoning of the parcel is A-1 which, is open land. You can see to the south Ginger Creek is zoned R-1A. Ginger Creek has a density of.92 dwelling units per acre. Heather Glenn has density for the overall subdivision of Westchester Subdivision, Phase II, has 2.82 dwelling units per acre and Wagon Wheel to the north is When you look at these actual built densities when compared to the Zoning Matrix, to the south is R-1A, to the west is R-1C which is 8 dwelling units per acre, to the north is 8 dwelling units per acre, and across the street is R-1B which typically represents an achievable density of 4 dwelling units per acre. You can see by the context of the surrounding vicinity that this land use request will maintain and preserve the compatibility of the surrounding zoning. Wendy Kirkpatrick (Applicant s Representative/Landmark Engineering & Planning/Ste. C/104 9 th Ave./Nampa, ID.) The exhibit shows the layout of the project and the proposed landscaping. What we have here is a true infill project. We are surrounding by constructed subdivisions on all 4 sides of the project. We are proposing 15 residential lots on 3.8 acres and a rezone to R-1C. Currently we have an R-A zone which is essentially a holding zone. When this property was annexed from Ada County it was a vacant piece of property and the 1A zoning was a holding zone. We are requesting R-1C which complies with the Comprehensive Plan designation for low density residential. The threshold for development density in this area is 4 units per acre. We re proposing to come in at about 3.8 so we are in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan designation. We have several significant site constraints on this project. The property to the east of the project is actually under a different ownership from the person that we purchased our property from so we were not able to go in and negotiate a different place for the access road. We have worked with the Highway District and have received staff and ACHD Commission

9 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 3 approval for that roadway location. Part of why we have the lots configured the way we do, rather than doing a typical subdivision lot, which would be about 100 ft. deep, what we are proposing is to have lots that are between 130 and 160 ft. deep. The reasoning behind that is to allow a different type of housing product so rather than a typical suburban subdivision lot where you drive down the street and you see a 3-car garage out front, these deeper lots will allow us to construct the garages behind the homes so when you drive down the street you re going to see a more neo-traditional neighborhood. All of these homes will have a side entry garage or the garage in the rear and will have shared driveways. So, it will allow a very different housing product than what you would see in a typical suburban subdivision. That is the reasoning behind the lot configuration. We ve been sensitive to the neighbors to the south. That s a larger lot, a very nice subdivision so we ve put our largest and deepest lots on the southern part of this project. We are providing what we perceive to be an upscale subdivision. We are more than willing to work with the neighbors on making this compatible to surrounding land uses. We re proposing R-1C, and actually about half of the project is surrounded by R-1C zoning, so we think it is compatible with surrounding development. We have put our largest lots on the southern end where we are bordering a larger lot subdivision. We think it s going to be an asset to the community. It definitely was a challenging site to work with and we think we ve successfully brought in what we think will be a really nice project for the area. Commissioner Pavelek How do you intend to control the location of the garages? There s no condition of approval. Ms. Kirkpatrick We plan on addressing that through CC&R s. You could also additionally address that through the conditions, but we plan on controlling that ourselves. That is going to be one of the selling points of the subdivision is that we have the garages in the rear of the project. Commissioner Pavelek Do you have any specific house plans? Ms. Kirkpatrick We do have some. We have a typical lot layout on the eastern edge of the site plan. We can also show you some of the elevations. They were actually based on Heritage Commons in Meridian. We think it will be somewhat typical and like the Heritage Commons project and we re willing say that we will be in substantial compliance with the housing products we show this evening. Commissioner Cooper Is that two lots in the diagram? Ms. Kirkpatrick Yes, that s showing two lots with a shared driveway. We re showing one attached and one detached, rear garages. Commissioner Cooper What is your typical lot width?

10 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 4 Ms. Kirkpatrick Lot widths vary between 51 and 55 with a much deeper lot than average. An average lot is 150 ft. depth. To the south all of our lots are 160 ft. in depth and on the northern side they are 130 ft. in depth so they actually are larger lots. Because we are doing the shared driveways and the rear garages, it enables us to do what will look like a really traditional product on a narrower lot with our site constraints. Commissioner Cooper Would you be comfortable with an added condition about putting the garages in the back? Ms. Kirkpatrick Yes. Diana Anderson (5132 Lancer/Boise/83703) I m co-developing this property with Mike Homan. I have some elevations of different subdivisions that have similar sized lots and similar ideas to what we are trying to construct for this development. Our goals here are to have a beautiful streetscape. That s our main goal for this development, to have a product that actually enhances the neighborhood. We are going to show three different subdivisions. The price ranges that we are looking at for this development; I m a marketer so I know the market pretty well and for this neighborhood we really think that the market is around $300,000 to $400,000 for these 9,000 sq. ft. lots with rear entry garages and very dressy front elevations on narrow lots. We really like the concept of the shared driveways. We re going to have larger back yards behind the garage so people can have play equipment, etc. There s plenty of room for additional space in addition to a private patio. We re going to be able to provide 3-car garages on all of these lots. The patios will be very private. Our goal is to have a product that is compatible price-wise with the neighbors so that their values are protected. We are providing housing for people that don t need a 1-acre lot and they can have a nice home with some nice privacy. Commissioner Fadness Are the homes going to be constructed by the same builders as the homes you just showed? Ms. Anderson No. These are different builders. Commissioner Fadness Is it the same developer? Ms. Anderson No. The developer for this subdivision is myself and Mike Homan. I ve just worked with these subdivisions and we like the product. I know the market for the product and they have been very popular. People like that streetscape and the privacy. Commissioner Brunelle When you were talking about the importance of privacy, you ve got lots at the very end of this that look like the side yards would look into the back yards of the neighbors to the west. Ms. Anderson That s correct.

11 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 5 Commissioner Brunelle What are you going to do about their privacy? Ms. Anderson One of the things that we feel is very important is to address the design issue with all of the surrounding neighbors. Because our garages will be in the rear, for example, on the north and the south sides, there won t be windows looking directly into those back yards at all. That s one of the nice things that will create privacy for both neighbors. On the west side we spoke to the neighbors at the neighborhood meeting who have houses there and we told them we would be very happy to mitigate the privacy issues by having a 10 ft. side setback. We could even make that a 15 ft. setback which is the standard back yard setback for Boise City, and create some landscaping and not have windows that look there. They might be looking at the side of someone s house instead of the back of someone s house, but we d be very willing to address those design issues with our designer and also increase landscaping and mitigate their concerns with privacy. Jed Wyatt (Applicant s Representative/Landmark Engineering/104 9 th Ave. S./Nampa, ID.) It s just a 15-lot infill subdivision so it s going to have very little impact on the surrounding neighborhoods. It is infill. It s a diversity of housing. It s a different product type that is very appealing with the front porch and the recessed garages. It conforms with the Comp Plan and the Matrix. We ve been through ACHD approval and we have their approval for the project. Jill Fiderlick ( 4096 N. Chatterton Ave./Boise/83713) I live to the west of this site. She says that it s privacy, they re going to create privacy for us. The question I have is I m going to see a roof if I don t see windows. Either way I m not going to have privacy. I m going to have a driveway or I m going to have a garage on the corner of my yard. My house is only 15 ft. from the back fence so that garage that s going to be in the corner is gong to be in my back yard. That garage door, the exhaust, all of that is in my back yard. She says she d be happy to work with us and I appreciate that sentiment, however when I gave her a phone call to her office it was never returned. I left a voice message so I m not quite sure how happy she s going to be to work with us. Three of my neighbors received empty envelopes for the first meeting. It was a standing room only meeting. No one in the room was pro this development with this density. We have a neighbor on our street that was killed in September. She was jogging. She was not in the street. This is not an area that needs any more density. She said the students will be able to walk to school. There are no sidewalks, none on Goldenrod, none on Ginger Creek, none on Cloverdale. There is no school for them to walk to. Pioneer Elementary School is now a district magnet. It s no longer a neighborhood school. When I called to put my 6-year old child in there, there were 108 on the waiting list so these children who move into this neighborhood will not be able to go. We will be left with infrastructure that the developer does not help with. We ve got school bussing. I m a teacher. I know how expensive for the district bussing is. We re going to have to get those kids to schools that are not in our neighborhood. They are across Cloverdale or they are across McMillan. No one that I know of has looked at the density in those schools. We ve got children who are already walking in the dark to junior high at 7:00 in the morning. This is not a friendly neighborhood for pedestrians which she has told us it was going to be. I knew when I bought my house this field was going to be developed and I wanted to enjoy the empty

12 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 6 field as long as I could. I m not opposing a development. I m opposing this level of development. It is not compatible with what you see around. There are only two houses adjacent to this property with a lot size comparable to what she is suggesting. The rest of them are a lot larger. Jared Adams (12883 W. Paint Dr./Boise/83713) I live in the subdivision just north of this proposed subdivision. I object to this proposal, not necessarily to the development of this land, but I object to the density and I think you are probably going to hear this from the majority of us that come up here to testify today. Probably the biggest issue I have is this size of lot or this size of land is essentially the same size as my subdivision, Wagon Wheel, just to the north. I don t understand why they cannot do a mirror of my subdivision and have a density of only 8 homes. It doesn t make any sense to actually put 15 homes when it is almost an exact duplicate of our subdivision. You re going to hear also that none of us probably object to this being developed, it s just the density. Commissioner Fadness You say you are at Wagon Wheel which is 8 homes. About when was that developed? Mr. Adams It was developed in Gretchen Rauer (4062W. Chatterton Dr./Bose/83713) I m the other house that s going to have a side of a home across my back yard and I m quite concerned about that since I have a 1-level house. What she is proposing is a very long, narrow and tall home. We are 15 ft. from our back fence. I m worried if it s 10 ft. on the other side, that s going to block any light of day that I might see from my home and yard. I m also concerned because it s the road that s also going to come right into my bedroom there at the end of the subdivision that s being proposed. Most people have already hit on the point that there s not a sidewalk. Although that was really a huge point with the development at the meeting, talking about she wanted to have a very environmentally friendly community where kids can walk to the store and walk to school. That s not really doable with any sidewalks and when we posed the question to her if she was going to be responsible to put the sidewalk in, she said that was not her responsibility. When we suggested that she make it a little less dense and maybe throw a park in there for the kids who do move into this neighborhood, she said that I would have to purchase that land and then she would be glad to make it into a park for them. I believe her actions and her words don t jive with being an environmentally friendly developer. I do fear that allowing this type of infill community in order to use every square inch of available property in Boise is a big mistake for the residents and that we ll look back on it in 20 years and regret it. Yes, I do know that it s going to be developed and that s fine, but I just hope that you make the developers responsible and hold her accountable for developing a fair housing community that enhances the city and not just to try and maximize what they can get for their money. Linda Dison (12777 W. Ginger Creek Dr./Boise/83713) I am the house at the end of Edelweiss where everyone of the 150 projects trips this subdivision will provide to us will probably dump.

13 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 7 I m not happy. We ve lived there since the subdivision was developed 25 years ago. Our density is 9.6. When they calculated the density of the houses in the area, they did not include Ginger Creek Drive. We weren t a part of it. Well, we are a part of it. We re a big part of it. We have a beautiful area that we would like to maintain. It s not crowded where we are. It s gracious and beautiful. What they plan to do is pave the whole thing from the sounds of it. If they ve got a 20 ft. driveway, if they ve got a 3-car garage, they didn t give us the square footage of the house, but the lot s only 9,000 sq. ft., is there going to be any grass? Is it all going to be paved? We have houses in Ginger Creek that are probably 9,000 sq. ft. including the garage. This is not compatible. There s no transition here. It s not even transitioning into what s already there. If you take a look at Wagon Wheel, the subdivision just north of there, you can see there s very little grass there. That s almost twice as many houses that are going to be in that other subdivision. There s going to be nothing left. I think it s wrong. I think 8 houses should be the maximum. I hope they will consider that. It s just not compatible. I m not saying that we shouldn t have high density. I just don t think it s right for where we are. Kathleen Beynum (4041 Edelweiss/Boise) As Angela stated, the neighborhoods around the one that extends from Ginger Creek is 2.65 dwellings per acre. Westchester is 2.82 dwellings per acre. Wagon Wheel is 2.79 and Ginger Creek is.9. I m on acres with one home so I don t see where her proposed 3.94 is even close to being compatible with the surrounding neighborhoods. We all know it s going to be developed. We re not opposed to that. R-1C is what the standard seems to be for all the neighborhoods now, but the amount of dwellings is completely incompatible and the price range she s speaking about, in Wagon Wheel there s a 6,000 sq. ft. house that s on the market for $655,000. Many of the homes in Ginger Creek are in the $600,000 to $700,000 range. There s another home in Wagon Wheel that s over 5,000 sq. ft. It s a $500,000 home. That s going around half the price of what the surrounding neighborhood is. We don t feel this is compatible. There is a little portion of a sidewalk on Edelweiss for walking to school. Many children and families use our street for walking because it is so quite and safe but obviously with 150 extra cars a day it will not be safe. There are no sidewalks on Goldenrod. No sidewalks in Ginger Creek and no sidewalks on Cloverdale. Gail Bonine (4041 Edelweiss/Boise) My home will be almost right beside the roadway that will be entering into this subdivision. Ever since I saw this and knowing just what has been happening around my home, small homes on small lots, with families actually quite small and a family of 4 is kind of small in Boise, I know that my neighbors, there s cars everywhere. In their garages are boats, snowmobiles, bicycles and things like that. Every since I saw this all I could visualize was where are all the cars going to go. In Traditions, there s one teenage boy lives by the road that still s blocked off, his friends all gather on our road and do varies things out there, but mainly have about 6 cars out there. I m just wondering how this is all going to look for this neighborhood. Sometimes cars don t make it into the garage. Cars will be just filling up this subdivision. For any of you with teenagers, everybody has their own car and these are going to be pretty expensive homes and so with that plus the various toys, that has been my concern and once again all that traffic that will spill out onto our street. I know this will be developed, but we

14 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 8 are just asking for less homes and I think it can be a beautiful area for families. The reality of the school system and Pioneer being so close, but with 108 waiting list, that s an issue too. Mark Heath (12603 Ginger Creek/Boise/President of the West Cloverdale Neighborhood Assoc.) We are the area along Cloverdale Road north of Ustick Road to south of McMillan Road. We have established this neighborhood association many years ago, about 25 years ago, this Ginger Creek Subdivision started their age lots. The existing subdivisions of Goldenrod Manor, right to the north of the Edelweiss area, are 5-acre lots. Right to the south of Goldenrod is a subdivision that s been there and has a couple of hundred homes. They are all acre lots so as you can see 25 years ago when this subdivision was planned out there they were planning to put in all large acre lots in there. In the last 15 years there have been a lot of new subdivisions that have transpired. Cameron Park which is to the west is 3 homes per acre. Traditions Subdivision happened in the late 1990 s and there were at least 2.89 homes per acre, a very nice subdivision. Heather Meadows has gone in right southwest of Ginger Creek. All the homes there are at least 3 homes per acre. Wagon Wheel Cove happened right north of this subdivision. As you can tell there are 8 homes in that subdivision. That s what we thought would happen with the acreage here, that it would be very identical to what happened there. Windwood Cove is a new subdivision that just happened right north of Wagon Wheel. In there they are putting in about 8 homes also. As you can see with the Fairview Point Subdivision, 15 lots in this whole one square mile area is the highest density of any subdivision in that area. We don t mind seeing developments happen like we have over the last 10 to 15 years, but we want to see subdivisions that are compatible with everything else that s happened in this area. This doesn t give us proper transitions between the subdivisions. Everybody will be looking out their back porch right into their back yards. This is too high a density that s been approved. Please don t allow any more than 8 lots for this subdivision. 15 are just way too many. Commissioner Fadness You say you are representing the neighborhood association. If this proposed development were built, would they be within your neighborhood association? Mr. Heath Yes. Commissioner Fadness Were you sent by your neighborhood association and are you stating your own views or those of the entire neighborhood association? Mr. Heath Those of the entire neighborhood association. Commissioner Fadness They took a vote on it and sent you? Mr. Heath Yes. Michelle Adams (12883 W. Paint Dr./Boise/83713) I concur with what my neighbors have stated. At the meeting we had with all the neighbors a lot of things were brought up, trailer park lots, patio homes, etc. all the things that we don t want just right in our back yard. There are

15 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 9 several of us in the back that have pools in the back that makes it more of a density issue for us. It just seems like at the meeting the developer was very eager to work with us, to compromise, all those things that just doesn t seem like it happened because the lot sizes are the exact same. Everything just seems like it s just at a standstill. I m just asking you, when it comes to the amount of houses, if we could just be able to have what everyone else proposed, which is no more than 8, our subdivision would work not only well for us but those two side homes that were a big issue on the west side. That s why I was just hoping that you would keep that under consideration. I do object to this. Mike Homan (Applicant/2229 W. State/Boise/83702) When we look at a piece of ground we try to look at the whole area. We meet with staff. We have a pre-app meeting to see what the zone is going to be. The Comp Plan shows the R-1C and in that R-1C it s up to 8 units per acre. Looking at the surrounding area, there s some larger lots and those were created when it was in the County. They didn t have sewer out there and services. Now it s been annexed into the City where we have city water and sewer. To get staff s support, they want to see a certain density which is usually around 4. We re at We like to get staff s approval when go into a project and try to please the neighbors and come up with a happy medium. I think the Diana spent a lot of time on this project trying to come up with something that would be able to handle upper end homes. Usually on a 50 ft. lot all you can get is a double car garage because of the width constraints. First time home-buyers a double car garage is great, but the second or third time home-buyer wants a bigger garage and one way to do that is to get the garage in the back and go to a 4-car garage. We have the square footage, 9,000 sq. ft. so they are not small lots. We re trying to come up with a design that will work. One thing about the subdivision that we will agree to do is perimeter fence it. This particular site had a hobby farm, tree nursery with a bunch of pine trees. We plan on putting a lot of those on the perimeter because they are in the way where we will have the roads. We try to use that as screening. Commissioner Fadness Are you suggesting that you sighted on a larger number of lots to meet staff s recommended density of 4 units, or would you have come with maybe a smaller subdivision if not for that? Mr. Homan This is an infill and it s very small. The total acreage is just under 4 acres so when you do a subdivision certain costs are involved. We do larger subdivisions 80 or a 100 lot subdivision where you can pass the cost over the lot count. When you get down to under 20 lots it doesn t pencil real well to do. A lot of these infill will do town houses and we ll go 8 to the acre in the R-1C. In this area we looked at that. We didn t think it would be compatible. There are not town houses in the area so we go residential, 8,000 or 9,000 ft. lots. When you get an infill like that your constrained on design so we put a lot of thought and effort into getting the best product we could for the situation of our layout. Dan Hardy (12965 W. Paint St./Boise) I am right to the north of the proposed development. From what I understand I m going to have 2 ½ of these houses in my back yard. That s completely unacceptable to me. I would also point out that as close as it s going to be from my

16 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 10 fence, I m going to have several garages right in my back yard. The developer says that this development is designed to create privacy, but that s not privacy for me or my family or any of the exterior owners. That s privacy for them. I wasn t at the meeting that was referred to, but the information that was related to me was that there were absolutely no plans to do any buffering between their development and our houses. We were told that they would send some design people over so that we could buffer our properties, which I found to be an interesting response. If you look at the homes to the north of that subdivision, there are 4. My neighbor to the east is going to have 3 of these homes just in his back yard. Clearly we ve got a major density problem. It s completely spinning, for what the representations they are saying about the size of these lots being compatible to the surrounding areas. If you look at the areas just directly around the subdivisions, their statistics are flawed because they are taking into account properties that are much farther away than the proposed development. I stand on the side of everybody else that s testified against this. But, to have several garages in my back yard that s basically going to be from here to that wall is not something that I think any of us would appreciate. Steve Wiley (4040 N. Chatterton/Boise/83713) My house backs up to the property on the southwest corner. I m not too excited about having a house about 10 ft. away from my fence in my back yard. When we bought our property we expected the density in our general area to be comparable to what we purchased and this density is a lot larger. Scott Hall (12851 W. Ginger Creek/Boise) I agree with everyone who is opposing the density. Obviously we all agree that it s okay to develop it. We are relying on your common sense to take all this information and make a good decision that benefits everyone yet to live there as well as the people who are already there. The developer mentioned it doesn t pencil well to put in lower density. Maybe he would like to talk to the people that developed Wagon Wheel. There are 8 homes there. Everyone seems happy and it seems to have worked out just fine. Edelweiss is a very narrow road. I don t know that anyone has addressed that, but it s an extremely narrow road with only a sidewalk on one side. Adding traffic is very dangerous, especially this load. The homes are beautiful that they are presenting and the approach would certainly appeal to you if they were selling you those homes, but to make them beautiful from the street is really irrelevant. Garages in the back is the worst in this situation because that s where all the homes are being affected and we can t drive down the road to appreciate this beautiful home with no visible garage because it is a dead-end. If you look at it closely, I don t see how the cars are going to fit in and out of there. It just looks very bottle-necked, congested. If you were to take a walk down Edelweiss it would be an easy decision to see that the density of 8 fits and makes good sense. Steve Dobbins (4111 N. Edelweiss/Boise/83713) I live on the lot directly north of the entrance to the proposed subdivision. I don t know the rules for a buffer zone between the driveway and the neighbors, but I hope that s addressed in writing with the developers. They bring up the trees on this lot they will be using for the buffer. However, they have been digging those trees up and getting rid of them day and night over the last week. There s a lot of foot traffic on Edelweiss with no sidewalks. A lot of it is children, people walking their pets.

17 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 11 Commissioner Brunelle I m trying to call when we dealt with a subdivision approval, it was Southeast Boise on Holden Lane. We re not looking at a conditional use permit in front of us tonight are we? We re looking at a rezone and then a subdivision so were we to want to try to condition, what would we condition, the subdivision? Mr. Spjute It depends on what you want to condition. If you are looking at reducing or increasing the number of lots, you would need to either recommend denial of the subdivision to the City Council, or set it over to a future date and suggest that the developer go back and redesign it with a different number of lots. But, we don t have any way to condition the number of lots other than through the approval or denial of the subdivision. The rezone can t be conditioned unless you set it over for a development agreement and ask the developer to come back in with a development agreement which would condition the rezone. You ve got the rezone to R-1B that you make to a recommendation on, but you can t condition that tonight unless you ask the developer to come back with a development agreement. Commissioner Cooper The question I asked earlier about putting the garages in the back, would it be appropriate to add that to the subdivision application as a condition? Mr. Spjute No it would not. We don t restrict the type of development through the subdivision plat other than the number of lots. The only way you could do that would be with a development agreement or a planned unit development. Ms. Wood The word infill ground was discussed, but I do want to specify that in correspondence received from Todd Tucker of the Subdivision Staff and outlined on that dated January 23, 2006, the lots outlined within the subdivision are not requesting any increases in density granted by an infill bonus. They are not asking for any waivers and they do meet the dimensional requirements as required by R-1D. That is having 5,000 for an interior lot, minimum width and depth. There are also not asking for any waivers of the Subdivision Ordinance. As Scott described, a rezone cannot be conditioned without a development agreement. I suggest that we read anything into record that we d like the City Council to explore. It is correct that Ginger Creek was in Ada County when it was developed. It was platted in 1976 so a lot has changed over the last three decades. In addition, development surrounding this area has increased in density. Because the applicant is not requesting a planned unit development or an infill bonus, I ve read through the subdivision report and such as suggested landscape easements or plat notes. But tonight we are trying to come up with a recommendation for Council so they can explore the options. Commissioner Fadness You referred to an that s dated today from someone on staff? Ms. Wood That s correct. In the packet that I read into the record it s at the end of the correspondence between Michael Meagretchen, Terry Wylie and Steve Wylie at the end of that

18 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 12 packet labeled Item #2 from Todd Tucker. It s just a brief memo explaining that the subdivision is in compliance and summarizing the findings of the subdivision report. Wendy Kirkpatrick Basically this is a 3.8 acre infill project. We re proposing 15 homes. This is actually a relatively low density. We re proposing 9,000 sq. ft. I work developing subdivisions. Most all the subdivisions I work on are 5,500 to 6,000 sq. ft. so that s a typical lot size you are seeing in Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell, some of the western Boise areas where there s new development. This is actually a fairly large lot subdivision. I think if Boise is serious about fighting sprawl and looking at how we development, you have to have some density in infill projects and this is not an unrealistic density with the 9,000 sq. ft. lots. The R- 1C that we re asking for and the density of 3.9 units an acre meets the Comprehensive Plan of a density of 4 units an acre and we re actually coming in a little bit under that. It meets the goals of the planners and the community had when they decided how this area should develop. For privacy issues, we are willing to make a couple of concessions. We are willing to add to our plat a 30 ft. rear setback so there will be no structures within the rear 30 ft. yards. The structures that will be in the rear of these yards will be garages. You re not going to have windows looking out into the back yards. The 30 ft. setback is double the current 15 ft. setback requirement. On the two lots to the west where we are next to neighbors we re willing to commit to doing single story houses to help with that privacy issue. The sidewalks are an ACHD issue. Our recommendation from ACHD was for us to install sidewalks only in front of the property we re immediately contiguous to Edelweiss. They do not want us to install sidewalks across the piece of property on the eastern part of the site plan. There is a neighborhood enhancement grant this neighborhood could apply for where they go in and prioritize where you need to do sidewalks and infrastructure improvements. Typically they look at school routes and heavily traveled areas, but that s not really a part of this project. So far as traffic impacts, we are proposing a 15- lot subdivision and it will have a relatively minimal traffic impact on the neighborhood. Part of why we chose this area is because it s a higher end area. We thought it was going to add to our project and we want to present an upscale, higher end project that we think will add to the area and ask for your approval. Commissioner Cooper Could you describe where there are and where there are not sidewalks? Ms. Kirkpatrick There are no sidewalks on Edelweiss. We will be putting in sidewalks on the southern end of the project and at the northern part also. Commissioner Cooper What about your own internal drive? Are there sidewalks there at all? Ms. Kirkpatrick I believe it is curb, gutter and 5 ft. sidewalk on the northerly ft. of the site and on the internal local street also. Commissioner Brunelle On lots 8 and 9, those would be the lots that you would commit to single story?

19 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 13 Ms. Kirkpatrick Correct. Commissioner Brunelle What would be their distance from the lot line to the west? Ms. Kirkpatrick There s a 10 ft. easement on the western part on the subdivision lots so it would be a standard side yard setback of 10 ft. If we end up lowering our density we would not be able to do the 30 ft. setback if we have to come in with a lower density. With this configuration we offer the 30 ft. setback. Commissioner Fadness That 30 ft. rear setback is on both sides? Ms. Kirkpatrick Correct. Commissioner Fadness Since this is just a subdivision, to hold them to their word on the 30 ft. rear setback, the single story homes on lots 8 and 9, and the sidewalks, do we then need to require a development agreement? Ms. Wood We suggest the cleanest way to accomplish that would be by a plat note or to establish building envelopes on the plat itself as they are reviewed by City Council. To make a clarification, subdivision plats may have a standard irrigation easement of 10 ft. surrounding the perimeter of the parcel, but R-1C setbacks for an interior lot are 5 ft. on the sides, 15 ft. in the front if you have a side or rear entry garage, or 20 ft. if you can see the garage entry and that s the front plane, and 15 ft. in the rear. Standard interior setbacks are 5 ft. as opposed to 10 ft. COMMISSIONER COOPER MOVED TO APPROVE CAR MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND. COMMISSIONER RUSSELL MOVED TO APPROVE CAR WITH DIRECTION TO THE CITY COUNCIL TO INCLUDE A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. WHAT I WOULD LIKE CONSIDERED IN THAT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ARE THE FOLLOW: A MAXIMUM OF 10 BUILDABLE LOTS; A MINIMUM OF 8,000 SQ. FT. PER LOT, GARAGES IN THE REAR; AND SINGLE STORY HOUSES ON THE TWO WESTERNMOST LOTS WHICH ARE CURRENTLY NUMBERED AS 8 AND 9. Commissioner Fadness I want to make sure that we are not confusing the rezone with the subdivision. I m wondering if some of the items requested in the development agreement of the rezone might not be more appropriate for the subdivision, the 10 lots, 1-story on lots 8 and 9, the garages. Are those appropriate conditions for a development agreement? Scott Spjute You can put zoning regulations on a subdivision plat by the use of notes, but it s not good practice because it s difficult to amend subdivision plats and it s a different sort of procedure than we normally go through. Probably if you wanted to do all those things it would

20 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 14 be more appropriate to do that through a development agreement/rezone. You can t recommend approval of the rezone to the City Council with a development agreement. If you want a development agreement you need to defer action on the rezone and ask the developer to come back with a development agreement. COMMISSIONER RUSSELL THEN I WOULD LIKE TO STRIKE MY PREVIOUS MOTION AND MOVE TO RECOMMEND TO THE DEVELOPER THAT THEY COME BACK WITH A REZONE APPLICATION THAT INCLUDES A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT HAS THOSE ITEMS INCLUDED INTO IT WHICH ARE: A MAXIMUM OF 10 BUILDABLE LOTS; A MINIMUM OF 8,000 SQ. FT. PER LOT; ALL GARAGES WILL BE LOCATED IN THE REAR OF THE HOUSES; AND SINGLE STORY HOMES ON TWO WESTERN MOST LOSTS LABELED AS LOTS 8 AND 9. COMMISSIONER MCLAIN SECONDED THE MOTION. Mr. Spjute The ordinance is a little bit awkward in the way it treats development agreements. I was assuming that the developer would agree to come back with a development agreement. If that is not the case, then you can forward your recommendation onto the City Council, but it needs to be a recommendation of denial for the rezone and then the City Council would remand the rezone back to the Commission and ask the developer to enter into a development agreement. Commissioner Fadness Do we need to ask the applicant now if they are willing to submit a development agreement? Mr. Spjute That would be appropriate because the ordinance does say if the applicant is willing to enter into a development agreement. Ms. Kirkpatrick We are willing to submit a development agreement and proceed onto City Council. Mr. Spjute The development agreement would first need to be reviewed by the Commission before going to the Council. Ms. Kirkpatrick Is there the potential for us to go ahead on move onto City Council and then this evening we ll work through which conditions you d like to add to a development agreement? Commissioner Fadness I don t believe it would be properly advertised if we did it that way. Mr. Spjute We couldn t send it forward with the development agreement because there isn t one. If you think the a development agreement should be entered into according to ordinance and the applicant agrees, you defer this and then have it back before you. If the applicant does not stipulate to submitting the development agreement, then you would forward the rezone with a recommendation of denial. At that point the Council can do whatever it chooses. They can

21 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 15 approve or deny the rezone, but the ordinance suggests that in that instance it would remand the rezone back to the Planning Commission for review of a development agreement. The developer can take their chances by going to the City Council and getting what they originally asked for, which is an unencumbered rezone and a subdivision, or they can stipulate to doing the development agreement. Commissioner Fadness The applicant has agreed to draw up a development agreement to bring back to us, is that correct? Ms. Kirkpatrick What would our timeframe be for when we would be coming back here and then moving onto City Council? Could we get on within the next month if we go ahead and do the renotice now for the development agreement? Mr. Spjute If we had the development agreement back to us within a working week we could get this on for the February 13 th hearing at the very soonest and satisfy all the notice requirements. Ms. Kirkpatrick We agree. COMMISSIONER RUSSELL I WILL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DEFER CAR05-56 AND WOULD ASK THAT THE APPLICANT GO BACK AND PREPARE A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT ADDRESSES THE FOLLOWING ISSUES: THAT THE DEVELOPMENT WILL INCLUDE A MAXIMUM OF 10 BUILDABLE LOTS; EACH LOT WILL BE A MINIMUM OF 8,000 SQ. FT. PER LOT; ALL GARAGES WILL BE CONSTRUCTED IN THE REAR OF THE HOMES; AND THAT ANY HOMES ABUTTING THE WESTERN PROPERTY LINE WILL REMAIN SINGLE STORY. COMMISSIONER MCLEAN SECONDED THE MOTION. Commissioner Pavelek I think it s important that we do give some reasons for the reduction in the number of lots. Quite often it s confusing to the public to know where the Commission stands or why it takes a particular action on a property. There are times when we push for density and neighborhoods come before us and we see justification. My view, and the maker of the motion may have his own views on this, I think in this particular case a larger lot, lower density makes sense in the fact in the context that this is a very small little island in the middle of a whole bunch of other subdivisions that are generally greater. I tried to do the math as best I could. The lots to the north probably were viewed as being infill and protested when they came forward but now that they are they there they seem to make sense. They have approximately about a 90 ft. wide lot as I read the dimensions off the map. If the developer in fact reduces her density down to the 10 lots, she s roughly going to have a 70 ft. wide lot and I think that s probably more compatible with this. The other thing I think is relevant is that the lack of sidewalks in this particular case may take some time to get in place. Being that there are larger distances between because of the larger lots, it is a dangerous situation to have people out in the

22 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of January 23, 2006 Page 16 streets. In this case it makes sense. If this property were more to the edge of the neighborhood, I probably wouldn t be supporting the motion, but being in the location that it is I will support the motion. Commissioner Russell Part of the reason behind my motion is that I was concerned about the densities that were surrounding this parcel. We do run into this from time to time and although we do promote high density developments in areas that are this close to the City, I just thought in this case, based off of the surrounding developments, that it was not compatible. I definitely agree with some of the statements that were made here this evening about the number of cars that are going to be created by 16 units, shared driveways, visitors coming in, cars on the street, boats, snowmobiles, etc. I do feel that these lots could become rather cramped and this roadway being a cul-de-sac could not work in this case. I also did some quick math and it seemed like the lots that were on the south side of Tackama were roughly in the 9,000 sq. ft. range, but the lots on the north side were going to be in the range of 5,500 to 6,600. I think by shifting that road to the south a little bit, increasing the width to around 70 ft., we could get 10 lots in there pretty easily that would be roughly around 70x120 feet and that would put all the lots at roughly about 8,300 sq. ft. so that s the reason for my 8,000 sq. ft. minimum. I was also concerned about the pedestrian access. It does seem like there are a lot of areas here that we do not have adequate sidewalks in place. It was mentioned that some neighborhood grants could be obtained and sidewalks built in those areas, however it is not a sure thing and it takes a lot of hard work by the neighborhood, etc. I felt that the 16 units was a bit much for this location and that was the reason behind the motion. Commissioner Brunelle I think this is a good motion. I was troubled by the choices that we would have in front of us for a property zoning. I don t think R-1A would be dense enough. R- 1B and R-1C, with the subdivision that was presented to us, had too many units. I hope that through the development agreement that comes back to us that we can see some of the lots to the west end of this area enlarged so that any building on those lots doesn t have to be shoe-horned in next to the western edge of the property. I think by limiting this area to 10 lots it s going to give the developer a little bit of flexibility to spread that out and potentially even have to build less roadway in the way that they configure their subdivision. I support the motion. MOTION TO DEFER FOR DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. COMMISSIONER RUSSELL MOVED TO DEFER SUB TO FEBRUARY 13 TH. COMMISSIONER MCLEAN SECONDED AND THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.

23 Planning & Zoning Commission Hearing Minutes of February 13, 2006 Commission Members Present Brandy Wilson/Chairman, Andy Brunelle, Doug Russell, Amber Van Ocker, Lauren McLean & Anthony Shallat. Staff Members Present Angela Wood, Carl Miller, Cody Riddle, Susan Riggs, Scott Spjute, Vicki Van Vliet, Mary Watson (Legal). CAR /DA/Mike Homan Location: 4041 N. Edelweiss Street REZONE 3.8 ACRES FROM A-1 TO R-1C WITH A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. Angela Wood Item #1 is a result of the January 23, 2006 hearing. The decision on this was held over so that a development agreement could be prepared. Previously the applicant was requesting R-1C zoning from A-1. The property is located with frontage on Edelweiss Street. It is a parcel located around the house currently fronting on Edelweiss. The Comp Plan land use designation was 4.0 dwelling units per acre. Previously the applicant proposed a 15-lot subdivision with the result in density of almost 4 dwelling units per acre. The applicant received a substantial amount of public concern. Now the applicant has submitted a development agreement and is proposing 10 total buildable lots which significantly reduces the density though the Comp Plan designation is still higher. Staff has addressed the development agreement in an addendum review. There was a staff memo for this evening, a description of the request and then a request for deferral. But there s also a second staff packet that has reviewed the development agreement and after reviewing this against all applicable criteria, staff finds that limiting the development to 10 lots is acceptable. The findings for that area addressed in the staff memo. Whitney Kirkpatrick (Applicant/Landmark Engineering & Planning/104 9 th Ave. South/Nampa, ID.) We were deferred to the hearing this evening to come back with a development agreement reducing the number of lots and we submitted that so we are reducing our number of lots from 15 to 10. It reduces our density to 2.6 units an acre which is a very low density. It seems to be appeasing the neighbors. There were several other concerns that came up during the hearing and I made sure to bring up in testimony that we weren t able to make those allowances if we did this lot reduction. Because we reduce it to 10 lots it s no longer viable for us to have the condition to put the garages in the rear. That was our primary concern because now that s gone from being a

24 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 2 neo-traditional subdivision with garages in the back, it s now going to be a traditional subdivision where we looking at traditional housing styles and will no longer have the garages in the rear. We are coming back with a reduction to 10 lots and a much lower development with this development agreement. Commissioner Russell Do you have a revised lot layout? Ms. Kirkpatrick We do. The actual configuration is not much different. The lots are much wider than they were in the original layout. Commissioner Brunelle I m trying to recall whether the Commission also adopted a requirement that the 2 lots in the rear, at the west end of the parcel, were to have 1-story units. Ms. Kirkpatrick That was brought up at the hearing. That is not one of the clauses in the development currently. The only clause that we ve included is that the number of lots has been reduced to 10. Commissioner Brunelle I thought that was a part of Commissioner Russell s motion. Commissioner Russell It was something that we had talked about. We really didn t make a motion. We deferred it so they could go back and create the development agreement and bring it before us for a motion. It was definitely something that we heard a lot of testimony on and I think it was some direction that we gave to the applicant hoping that they might go back and consider that, but it doesn t look like it s in this development agreement. Ms. Kirkpatrick Our argument would be that now that we are coming back with extremely low density for an infill project, it s basically unfeasible for us to go in and have those other conditions on a project. We should be able to do up to 4 units per acres, we re going down to 2.6 which is very low for infill. It is unfeasible for us to go ahead and have those other conditions placed on the project. Commissioner Brunelle Angela, what s your recollection? Ms. Wood We did discuss it and I reviewed over the minutes, but we did hold the decision for this evening in waiting for the preparation of the development agreement. One thing I would like to point out is that the subdivision is not being heard tonight. We re only considering the rezone so those findings of compatibility with the Comprehensive Plan and compatibility with the area is what I considered in my memo describing the development agreement. Being that it is limiting the parcel of land to 10 units and not linking it through the subdivision plat to an exhibit of that subdivision plat, the applicant didn t include the design perimeters within the development agreement because the subdivision will be brought in at a separate time. If you d like to read into the record, that direction for Council to make the end determination, that would be acceptable.

25 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 3 Commissioner Wilson Then for a point of clarification from Legal, this is just the rezone and development. It s not the subdivision. Ms. Wood That s correct. Linda Dixon (12777 W. Ginger Creek/Boise/83713) As I understood what you are saying tonight is all they are asking for is the rezone to change the density, is that correct and this is not being considered or approved tonight? Commissioner Wilson Correct. It s just the rezone and then limiting the number of units that can be put on the property to 10. Linda Dixon Can we still say that we think it should be 8 because that s what s behind it? I would just like to stay that. The subdivision that s right behind it is almost exactly the same amount of property as this piece is and it has 8 units on it and it s pretty tight and those were the people that were complaining about the fact that the garages were going to be right up against their back fence when they are right up on their fences too. We state that we would prefer to have no higher density than what is in Wagon Wheel. Gretchen Rawer (4062 N. Chatterton/Boise/83713) I m along the fence where we discussed getting a single story in there. I did want to reiterate the point that 8 units would be lovely. Will we have a chance to come back and discuss the actual homes that are going to go on there? Is that a whole other discussion or is that linked to this because it depends on the density if we can have single story or 2-story, etc.? Commissioner Wilson It will come through as a separate subdivision plat. Jill Fiderlick (4096 W. Chatterton/Boise/83713) I m also to the west of what is proposed. You are not mistaken. In the discussion at the last hearing you discussed four things. Commissioner Russell had said 8 minimum homes, 10 maximum homes. I can t remember who said 30 ft. from the back fence to the building structure. Garages were to be in the back and single stories for the two lots to the west. Those were the four things discussed. I got this little notice in the mail I guess to defer this, to rezone this to the 2.6 which I appreciate. We all of course want less and we re not going to beat around the bush on that one, but 2.6 is better than the 8.0 which was originally proposed. Are we going to get something in the mail when it comes time to talk about single story, how far from the fence, all that? Commissioner Wilson I will ask staff to clarify that for everybody. Ms. Fiderllick I would like to request that when I look at this little form that I was given last time I was here, we are now between an R-1A and an R-1B plan. The rear fence is 30 ft. to the structure and the side is 10 ft. Staff last time quoted 5 ft. for the sides. Since I am probably

26 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 4 going to have that side in my living room, in my kitchen, in my bedroom, I would really like for it to be not an R-1C measurement, but the R-1A and single story. Commissioner Wilson I wasn t here at the last meeting where this was taken up. Was it the rezone, the development agreement, and the subdivision and is it different this time. It sounds like a lot of subdivision kinds of issues were discussed last time and I m wonder why that s not included this time. Ms. Wood At the public hearing, which this decision was held over, so whatever was discussed previously, the decision you have before you this evening is just limited to the rezone which accompanied by the development agreement. Previously there was a subdivision plat and a rezone minus the development agreement, so the extra time was just allowed so that a development agreement could be prepared. A development agreement wasn t on the table last time. During testimony there was subdivision comment and rezone comment used together rather than us separating the two requests out. The reason the subdivision plat isn t before you is that it s not required to accompany a rezone unless it is linked by a development agreement, which it s not in this case, and secondly that was not prepared at the time that I wrote this staff report. It hadn t yet been turned into our Subdivision Department which is the reason for our first memo requesting that the applicant still work with subdivision staff to prepare that. Commissioner Wilson With the subdivision, when it does come forward, how is that process going to be handled and will there be notification and another opportunity for the public to provide input? Ms. Wood Subdivisions are similar to rezones in that they take both your recommendation and then final determination by City Council. Neighbors would have the opportunity to speak about that subdivision in the public hearing process. The notification though is not similar because they will not receive radius notices for subdivision. Commissioner Wilson Then the neighbors need to watch for when it comes up before Planning & Zoning again? Ms. Wood That s correct and City Council agendas are available to the public and they need to watch when a subdivision is going to be coming up on their agenda. Commissioner McLean Would it come to us first before it goes to City Council? Ms. Wood Yes. It necessitates having your recommendation. Commissioner McLean I know that at other times you have the legal notification but you also notify but you also notify parties of interest. Could something like that be done tonight for this subdivision?

27 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 5 Scott Spjute Your question is can we send a notice when the subdivision comes out to interested parties? Commissioner McLean Right. I m wondering if aside from the legal notification requirements you go through if there were something the Department could do to notify these people here, the parties of interest when that comes forward? We re hearing a lot tonight and we heard it last time too about something that now, because of the way that this has happened, we re going to be considering later. Mr. Spjute A division of property, in accordance with zoning standards, is an outright allowed use just like obtaining a building permit for a home is an allowed use. We don t send notice to surrounding property owners because there s no statutory nor local code requirement that we do so. If you want to direct Planning to send notice to whomever, we ll do it. We would not normally do it. Commissioner Russell If there were any other conditions of approval that we wanted to apply to this project would it just be best to make a motion to put those in the development agreement or would it be best to wait until the subdivision comes through? If we were going to address setbacks or building heights, etc., would it be best to recommend they go into the development agreement, or is just a condition of approval of the rezone? What would be the best way to handle that? Mr. Spjute It would be pretty unusual to dictate a home style or home height in a development agreement like this, especially on a single family home which is considerably short of the normal density allowed or suggested by the Comprehensive Plan. If you can provide a rational reason for attaching an additional condition of approval, then I suppose it s legally defensible, but I think I m pretty safe in saying that there s not a home out there within a mile that had any sort of condition regardless of who lived next door before them or who didn t like the house that was going in. This subdivision complies with the zoning dimensional standards. It s just allowed in the zone and that s why we don t send notice. It complicates the matters if you ask us to send notice because the subdivision platting process is a lot quicker. They can turn in a subdivision plat and have it on a public hearing agenda in a very short turn-around, under two weeks in some cases, and yet our normal notifications that we do require much longer than that. So if we re going to have a public hearing and send notice for a subdivision, we re going to have to do our processes completely different and have a much longer review time and longer time to get that subdivision to a public hearing. If you want to attach conditions, if you want to dictate the style, size, height or setbacks of a home, the only way to do that is in a development agreement. It could be done in a subdivision but putting zoning requirements on the face of the subdivision plat is not good practice because the process for reviewing or changing those, when they are on a subdivision plat, is much different than our normal zoning procedure. Kari Minas (12977 W. Paint Dr./Boise/83712) We re not trying to dictate that they can t have 2-story houses. We are just asking for some consideration. We understand that people don t

28 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 6 generally have to go in and have the type of zoning where they are dictated to have one level or 2-story houses but that was kind of a land-locked area and all these houses have been built around it. It s really weird to think that there s going to be like I ll have 2 houses in my back yard looking straight back at me. I just really hope that they choose to put 8 houses in there instead of 10 and consider the houses around there because this will just not fit in having cram packed houses in that area. Scott Hall (12851 W. Ginger Creek/Boise/83713) When we left last time, Commissioner Russell did motion some specific things that the developer answered and agreed to and the term development agreement was part of that agreement. It was minimum setbacks which were changed significantly from the first proposal. It did address single story houses only on two lots and I m sure anyone here wouldn t have a problem understanding that. You can t take cutter laws and apply them to everything. This is a unique situation. This subdivision is very unique and most of it has been there a long time. I think that listening to staff; they are saying yes they can do things, but they don t want to. So it is legal, it is possible for you to ask them to do that and they will begrudgingly follow your request. Also there was the 10 units and the minimum setbacks and then this was then motioned and presented if these terms were acceptable to the developer. Mrs. Kirkpatrick agreed that they would do that. So apparently I m not familiar with how this works, but people have found out legally they don t have to, but you can enforce some things that maybe a little bit outside the box that take a greater interest in what s really going on over there. The property directly to the north is almost exactly the same size. It has been very successfully developed with 8 units. All the utilities are that much closer to this land so I don t understand why they can t successfully develop this land with 8 units and adhere to what we are asking. Every time they have spoken they have said they are willing to work with us, but now they are sort of coming through the back door. There were specific things addressed that they ve apparently ignored. How do we trust that they are going to do what they say as you continue to approve these things. I think there needs to be some accountability. Commissioner Russell Could staff tell us what the side setbacks are in the R-1C and the R-1A? Ms. Wood In comparing R-1C vs. R-1A setbacks, I have this diagram which I showed at the public hearing last time. This demonstrates for an interior lot for R-1C, the front setback would be 15 ft. with a side or rear entry garage much like what the applicant was first suggesting with their first subdivision application which we are just considering the rezone, interior setback of 5 ft., rear setback of 15 ft. This is different from an R-1B or R-1A zoning designation which is 30 ft. in the rear, 10 ft. on the side, and the same front setbacks. Often subdivision plats also incorporate a 10 ft. plat boundary easement offering further spatial separation under the R-1C zoning designation. A point of clarification, the subdivision to the north, Wagon Wheel, is being described by area residents as 8 lots, but it s not. It actually has 10 buildable lots currently and then a 12 th buildable lot. The density there is on 3.93 acres is 2.79 lots per acre as opposed to just being 8 units.

29 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 7 Commissioner Russell That 10 ft. buffer that you are talking about, that easement that goes around the boundary, that will dictate the two lots on the western end, that those houses will have to be setback a minimum of 10 ft., is that correct? Ms. Wood The zoning requirement would only require a 5 ft. setback measured from an internal property line to the home. I can t speak to the peripheral easement because the subdivision plat hasn t been reviewed yet. But if you did want to speak to that in the minutes for them to consider at City Council, we could do that this evening. Commissioner Brunelle Has your recollection changed since I last asked you, based on the public testimony, about what was in the motion by Commissioner Russell and what we adopted, the development agreement because it s my recollection is there were four things, not one thing. Ms. Wood I understand, but the formal motion was held until this evening to then be able to review a development agreement that would be before you. Though we spoke of that on January 23 rd, what s binding this evening is the development agreement that s included in your packet. Whether you make the motion to deny what s before you or approve it, you can use those other three elements to do so. Ms. Kirkpatrick The reason we re coming back with a development agreement and requesting the single condition to limit this to 10 lots is that the project has fundamentally changed with the drop in density. We originally were actually much more in alignment with the Comprehensive Plan with our original product where we were close to the target density of 4 units an acre. We re providing a diversity of housing types. With the drop in density we re now providing a much more traditional suburban type development and the conditions which we had offered up when we were doing the neotraditional project with the long narrow lots no longer makes sense with this project. We are making the concession to drop the density. In my opinion as a planner it is a weaker project at this point and I wish we didn t have to do that drop, but we want to keep the project moving forward so we are willing to make the concession with the density but we are asking that the one concession be the drop to the 10 units. COMMISSIONER RUSSELL MOVED TO APPROVE CAR /DA WITH ONE ADDITIONAL CONDITION AND THAT IS THAT ON THE TWO WESTERNMOST LOTS OF THE PROJECT, A MINIMUM 10 FT. SIDE SETBACK BE ESTABLISHED. COMMISSIONER VAN OCKER SECONDED THE MOTION. Commissioner Russell I think based off of our meeting last month that we heard the neighbors concerns. I think the developer has made a pretty big concession here dropping their units to 10 and I think that by just slightly increasing the setback on those western lots that we have a project that s going to be fairly compatible with the surrounding area and definitely in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. I think it will be a good project now that we are down to this density.

30 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 8 Commissioner Brunelle I m really troubled by what happened here. I m going to vote no on this motion. It seems like staff has treated our decision from last month as advisory and not a decision. While I can understand and appreciate the concessions that the applicant has made, it seems to me that we weren t just throwing out ideas when we talked about building height and setbacks. There s probably a middle ground that can be found here as far as 2-story buildings on the western edge. I don t know where that would be. This isn t in a design district so it wouldn t go through Design Review. The change on not having the garages in the back, I don t see that as a real big deal because as my recollection of the public comment last time was they had some concerns about the garages in the back facing their back yards. I don t issue an issue with compatibility on that. I do wish that we would have had the actual transcript from the hearing so we could have resolved just what it was that was said, what the motion was and whether the motion is just a list of ideas from the Planning & Zoning Commission that the staff can play like is a Chinese menu and pick and choose from what they desire or whether we were giving direction. I m going to vote no on the motion. Commissioner McLean I m struggling with this but I m going to vote to deny this as well for many of the same reasons. I feel like the change in density didn t have to change the fundamental parts of this project that I thought were actually pretty nice. I also did feel that at the end of the day and at the end of that long hearing where we heard from a lot of people that more was going to be done than just the change in density. I too wish I could see more of that and I wish that I hadn t recycled all my stuff last time because I would have looked it up. I just don t feel good about this and am going to vote against the motion. Commissioner Van Ocker We re voting on a rezone. I m getting confused over the discussion that s occurring up there. We re voting on a rezone that s actually rezoning property at a much less density than what they could be doing. I was not present at the other meeting and my understanding of the minutes is that a motion was to defer, not to actually make an approval so that s what we are doing now. I think that as far as our Zoning Ordinance, it s going to be very, very difficult to deny this on the basis of our actually rezoning this with this attachment as its zoning designation. I m definitely going to support the motion and I just caution everybody in understanding that if we are going to deny we d better have reason for denial and I m not hearing that. Commissioner Brunelle My take on it is we could make a recommendation for an R-1A zone and it would be fully compatible with everything around it because much of the land in that area was R-1A, am I correct? Commissioner Wilson We are in the middle of a motion and are unable to ask staff anything further. Commissioner Brunelle That was my recollection of what s in that area and Commissioner Van Ocker is correct, the question here is a rezone but in this case the motion that we adopted at

31 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 9 the last meeting was a rezone with a development agreement. I felt that we had struck a pretty good middle ground at the last meeting because we have zoning limitations, R-1A, allowing many fewer units per acre than a R-1B or an R-1C. I felt that Commissioner Russell s motion from the last meeting where we allowed a higher density zoned, the 1B, but then limited the number of acres was a good compromise. You could always just fall back and have an R-1A zone, but I m not making that motion at this time. Commissioner Russell I think the other thing to consider is it really wasn t a motion. We made a motion last time to defer so that they could go back and come up with this development agreement and I think we definitely stated some opinions on the record as far as what we wanted to see. I think that they have covered one of them in the development agreement, basically lowering the number of units to 10. I don t think they did a very good job of listening to our other directions, but I can kind of sympathize as to why that is. There definitely wasn t a motion that had all those items incorporated into it. It was more of a motion to defer hoping that they would come back with something that we could look at and feel comfortable with. With the lower density and that side setback I am to a point where I feel comfortable with it. I definitely will say on the record that it would be better if they stuck with the same type of housing product that they presented to us at the last meeting, but again I understand some of the reasoning why they are not doing that. I guess I just wanted to clarify that there definitely was not a motion in the last motion that had conditions, it was a motion to defer. If you recall we had a long discussion back and forth with staff on how we were going to handle that. Commissioner McLean That s how I remember is also, but if I understand correctly what we re doing now is deciding whether or not we want to approve the rezone with the design with the development agreement that s before us. Commissioner Wilson Correct. I wasn t at that last meeting but I think what s happened here is that what we ve got now is rezone and a development agreement and what was here last time was a rezone and a subdivision. It s difficult to approve a rezone without seeing what the subdivision is going to look like. I always prefer it when those things come in together. Even though they are not required to come in together, it s a lot nicer because then you can see it together, you can talk about it in a public forum and it really does make a difference. I really wish the applicant would have done that and come forward with something else other than just the development agreement just because that had already been discussed before. I think that would have been a more open and fair way to do it just because the public hearing process isn t that friendly to begin with and then when you come and talk about one thing and then you come to the next meeting and you re presented with something different and not allowed to talk about the thing that you talked about before, at least it s not encouraged, that really creates an atmosphere of mistrust in the whole process. I think it is really unfortunate that we don t have subdivision to look at tonight and talk about. But in light of what we do have, which is the rezone and the development agreement, I think with Commissioner Russell s addition of the setback requirement to the development agreement, I think that is going to help alleviate the

32 Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of February 13, 2006 Page 10 neighbor s concerns. I just wish that since it had come forth with the subdivision last time it would have come forth with the subdivision again so that we could have all discussed it.

Edelweiss Street from A-1 (Open Land) to R-1C (Single Family Residential). Staff's Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of CAR Summary: The applicant is requesting a zone change from A-1 to R-1C. The subject property has no previous zoning application history and is comprised of one parcel surrounding an existing single-family dwelling and accessory buildings, which directly front on Edelweiss. The applicant indicated that the property would be subdivided upon approval of the rezone. The applicant has submitted a concurrent request for a preliminary plat for Fairview Point Subdivision (SUB ), which has a proposed density of 3.94 DU/acre. The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. The rezone is supported by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan as Goal 8.0 suggests the City should strive to minimize suburban sprawl, which provides for a diverse mixture of lifestyles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and efficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The proposed rezone would maintain and preserve the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. No agencies have responded stating that the proposed rezone will adversely impact the delivery of services.

41 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / January 23, of 10 2 services; and 3. Maintain and preserve compatibility of surrounding zoning and development. *** 6. Analysis The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. As indicated by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan, the low density residential land use designation is the most appropriate for this area. The requested zone, R-1C, applies to the widest area of existing single family development. The rezone is supported by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan as Goal 8.0 suggests the City should strive to minimize suburban sprawl, which provides for a diverse mixture of lifestyles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and efficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The proposed rezone would maintain and preserve the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. The site is surrounded by single family uses on lots of varying sizes. To the north, phases of the Providence Place development have densities of approximately four units per acre. Specifically, Providence Place Subdivision No. 1 has 139 lots, of which 125 are buildable on acres. This results in a density over 4 units per acre. The Ginger Creek Subdivision, to the west, has homes on larger parcels, resulting in a density of less than 4 units per acre. The applicant has submitted a concurrent subdivision request, Fairview Point Subdivision (SUB ). Subdivision staff has reviewed the request against applicable guidelines within the ordinances and the comprehensive plan and has found that the request does comply. The plat review ensures the density as prescribed by the zone change is compatible to existing land uses in the vicinity. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. This request meets the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. Upon approval the property would be subdivided into approximately 15 buildable residential lots which equates to a density of approximately 3.94 dwelling units per acre. The proposed rezone would aid in maintaining and preserving the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where infrastructure currently exists. Comments from public agencies indicate that the proposed use will not place an undue burden on existing transportation and service facilities in the vicinity. The proposed zone modification will

42 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / January 23, of 10 2 not place an undue burden on the existing public facilities. The Ada County Highway District finds that this development is estimated to generate an additional 150 vehicle trips per day. It was determined in correspondence dated January 11, 2005 that this project will not create an undue burden on the public road network. The vehicular transportation system within the vicinity will not be negatively impacted by the proposed development if the applicant complies with all conditions imposed by Ada County Highway District. Boise Public Works is reviewing the project and will require the installation and use of public facilities and utilities as appropriate. Services are adequate to allow rezoning of the property. Sewer infrastructure runs immediately along the south side of the property. Upon development of the property, connection to central sanitary sewer is required and applicant will be required to extend the sewer system into the site. No other agencies have responded stating that the proposed rezone will adversely impact the delivery of services.

CAR /DA Staff's Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of CAR /DA with conditions to the development agreement. Summary: The applicant is requesting a zone change from A-1 to R-1C. The subject property has no previous zoning application history and is comprised of one parcel surrounding an existing single-family dwelling and accessory buildings, which directly front on Edelweiss. The applicant indicated that the property would be subdivided upon approval of the rezone. The applicant has submitted a concurrent request for a preliminary plat for Fairview Point Subdivision (SUB ); the public hearing process is still pending for the subdivision plat as the revisions have not been received as of February 10, The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. The development agreement, as submitted, suggests limiting the total buildable lots to 10. Staff supports the limitation due to Planning and Zoning Commission direction, though the area can support higher densities. Densities of around 4.0 dwelling units per acre are supported by the Comprehensive Plan. The rezone is supported by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan as Goal 8.0 suggests the City should strive to minimize suburban sprawl, which provides for a diverse mixture of lifestyles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and efficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The proposed rezone would maintain and preserve the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. No agencies have responded stating that the proposed rezone will adversely impact the delivery of services.

45 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of Background, Standards of Review and Analysis Background Mike Homan requests approval for a rezone of ±3.8 acres located at 4041 N. Edelweiss Street from A-1 (Open Land) to R-1C (Single Family Residential). The subject property has no previous zoning application history and is comprised of one parcel surrounding an existing single-family dwelling and accessory buildings, which directly front on Edelweiss. The applicant indicated upon approval that the property would be subdivided. The applicant had submitted a concurrent plat to be reviewed which the rezone, though it was not included in a development agreement. On January 23, 2006, the proposal was heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Public testimony indicated concern regarding the 3.94 du/acre density of the subdivision, the process of the homes and the spatial distance between the parcels. As a result, action was deferred on the item so the applicant could prepare a development agreement to decrease the density of the anticipated development. Now, the applicant has submitted a development agreement which will limit the total buildable residential lots to no more than 10. The section following will describe how the request was reviewed against all the applicable criteria in the zoning ordinance and comprehensive plan and found to be in compliance. Standards of Review Section AMENDMENT, RECLASSIFICATION Section Application Required Every person seeking the reclassification of any land as regulated by this Ordinance shall file an application and fee with the Planning Director in accordance with Section Section Public Hearing The Planning and Zoning Commission shall advertise, provide notice and conduct a public hearing in accordance with Section of this Ordinance for each application to amend this Ordinance or to reclassify a zoning district. Any recommendation of the Commission relating to change, modification and reclassification of zoning districts and land use classifications and the regulations and standards thereof shall be in writing. Their recommendation shall include findings of fact supporting the purposes and objectives of zoning and otherwise securing public health, safety and general welfare. The recommendation shall specifically find that such changes, modifications and reclassifications of zoning districts and land use classifications and the regulations and the standards thereof: A. Comply with and conform to the Comprehensive Plan; and

46 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of 10 1 B. Provide and maintain sufficient transportation and other public facilities, and does not adversely impact the delivery of services by any political subdivision providing services. C. Maintain and preserve compatibility of surrounding zoning and development. Failure of an application to meet these findings shall not prevent the request from being forwarded to the City Council for consideration after Commission review. Notice of the Commission s recommendation shall be included in the notice of the public hearing of the City Council. *** Section DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS A. Purpose. The purpose of a Development Agreement is to provide a vehicle for development in areas and for uses where, in the opinion of the Council or the Commission, approval of a requested rezone by itself does not satisfy the requirements set forth in the Zoning Ordinance for rezone approval; but, that use of a Development Agreement will assure compliance with the required rezone findings and conclusions. Development agreements can be used after a determination has been made that the proposed rezone by itself is not appropriate, unless the use of a Development Agreement could allow development to proceed under stricter restrictions than those imposed generally in the proposed zoning district. Nothing in this section shall be construed as relieving the property which is subject to Development Agreement restrictions from further compliance with all other permit and code requirements applicable because of the zoning designation of the property. Restrictions imposed upon property as a result of a Development Agreement are in addition to all other zoning ordinance requirements. B. After an application for rezone has been received in the Planning Division, a request to enter into a Development Agreement for that parcel may be submitted by the rezone applicant; or, a Development Agreement may be required by Council at Council's rezone hearing, or may be required by Council upon recommendation from the Commission following the Commission's rezone hearing. 1. In the event of a recommendation by the Commission that a Development Agreement should be entered into, the rezone shall be forwarded to the City Council with a recommendation that the requested rezone be denied or that it be remanded to the Commission, with the Council requiring an application for a Development Agreement to be submitted by the applicant. If, however, the applicant agrees to submit an application for a development agreement, then the Commission shall defer its recommendation to the City Council on the rezone application until a public hearing is held on the Development Agreement application. After the public hearing on the Development Agreement application

47 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of 10 1 is held, the Commission shall forward its recommendation on both the rezone and Development Agreement requests to the City Council. 2. In the event of a determination by the Council that a Development Agreement should be entered into, the Council shall remand the matter back to the Commission, with the Council requiring an application for a Development Agreement to be submitted by the applicant, unless the applicant has already done so and a public hearing was held under subsection 1. above. The Council shall, upon remand, direct the Commission on the specific issues to be addressed by the development agreement. The Commission shall then proceed as specified in this Section. 3. In the event a developer seeks to enter into a development agreement, the developer's application for a Development Agreement shall be taken to the Commission at the time of the scheduled rezone hearing. The Commission shall, following consideration of the rezone and Development Agreement applications, forward its recommendation to the City Council regarding each of the applicant's requests. C. In the event of (1) or (2) above, all time limits required by the City Code may be stayed upon affirmative vote of the Council or Commission. D. Form of Development Agreement Application: All applications for development agreements shall be in a form as required by the Planning Director. No application shall be accepted by the Director, which does not include the following: 1. An affidavit by the owner of the property agreeing to submission of the use and property for a development agreement. 2. The specific use(s) or use restrictions of the property upon which the Development Agreement is sought. 3. When deemed appropriate by the Planning Director, a concept plan, which shall include at a minimum: a) Three site plans and one 8 1/2 x 11 inch reduction showing: (1) Existing structures, which will remain, labeled as to existing and proposed uses. (2) Building footprint, height, number of stories, proposed uses (office, retail, restaurant, etc.), and square footage of proposed structures. If residential, overall density and number of dwelling

(11) Locations and widths of right-of-way, easements, canals, ditches and property lines. (12) Drainage features. (13) Conceptual landscape plan (landscape areas, sizes and heights). 4. The time period for which the agreement is requested to be valid, including the time period within which the development or use must commence and the time period within which the development and the terms of the agreement are to be completed. 5. A statement that failure to comply with all commitments in the approved Development Agreement shall be deemed a consent to rezone the property to the pre-existing zone, or in the case of an initial zone at annexation, a zone deemed appropriate by the Council. 6. If the Development Agreement is being requested by the rezone applicant, as opposed to having been required by Council, a statement must be included that all time limits required by City Code are waived. 7. Fee. 8. Phasing plan and proposed phasing schedule. E. Process: Upon receipt of an application for development agreement, the Planning Director shall work with the applicant to prepare a development agreement. The Development Agreement shall include the requirements of (D) and any other matter, which in the discretion of the Planning Director would address the concerns for the development, which has been proposed by the applicant.

49 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of 10 1 restrictions on use. The draft of the Development Agreement shall be reviewed by the City Attorney as to form prior to being sent to the Planning & Zoning Commission. F. Approval of a Development Agreement: 1. The Planning & Zoning Commission shall hold a public hearing on the draft Development Agreement and the rezone request, and make recommendation to the Council. The Commission may recommend approval or denial and may recommend the addition of conditions, terms, duties or obligations to the development agreement. 2. The Council shall hold a public hearing on the draft agreement and the rezone request, and shall review the recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission. The Council may approve, deny, and may add conditions, terms, duties or obligations to the development agreement. Development agreements may be approved at the sole discretion of Council. G. Upon approval of a Development Agreement or any modification thereto by the Council and the applicant, within one (1) year from the date of such approval it shall be recorded at the expense of the applicant and prior to the rezone approval. Failure to record the Development Agreement within the one-year time frame shall automatically render approval of the rezone null and void. Proof of recording must be submitted by the applicant prior to the third reading of the rezone ordinance by the Boise City Council. The development agreement, or any modification thereto, and all conditions, terms, duties or obligations included therein shall run with the land and shall be considered continuing obligations of the owner, co-owners and each other person acquiring an interest in the property. An owner, co-owner, each subsequent owner or other person acquiring an interest in the property which is restricted by a Development Agreement or modification adopted pursuant to this Section, shall comply with the terms, conditions, obligations and duties contained in the Development Agreement or modification. H. Modification of a Development Agreement: 1. Development agreements may only be modified after public hearing by the City Council. Major modifications as determined by the Planning Director require a hearing and recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission prior to Council's hearing. I. Termination of Development Agreements: 1. Development agreements may be amended or terminated by the City Council, after public hearing, for failure to comply with the commitments expressed in the development agreement.

50 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of Upon termination of the development agreement, the Council shall revert the property to the prior zone or in the case of an initial zone at annexation, to a zone deemed appropriate by the Council. All uses of the property, which are not consistent with the subsequently designated zone following termination of the development agreement, shall cease. The owner of the property shall apply for a conditional use for the property if the use is conditionally allowed within the subsequently designated zone. J. Public Hearings: Public hearings required under this Section shall be conducted and notice shall be provided as is described in Section , Boise City Code, provided, however, that under no circumstances shall the notice and hearing requirements be less than what is required by Section , Idaho Code. K. Enforcement of Development Agreements: Development Agreements may be enforced by the City through any means deemed to be appropriate, including, but not limited to, specific enforcement, injunctive relief, damages or criminal penalty for violation of this section. The enforcement options available to the City shall not be considered exclusive. Analysis The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. As indicated by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan, the low density residential land use designation is the most appropriate for this area. The requested zone, R-1C, applies to the widest area of existing single family development. The rezone is supported by the Boise City Comprehensive Plan as Goal 8.0 suggests the City should strive to minimize suburban sprawl, which provides for a diverse mixture of lifestyles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and efficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The proposed rezone would maintain and preserve the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. The site is surrounded by single family uses on lots of varying sizes. To the north, phases of the Providence Place development have densities of approximately four units per acre. Specifically, Providence Place Subdivision No. 1 has 139 lots, of which 125 are buildable on acres. This results in a density over 4 units per acre. The Ginger Creek Subdivision, to the west, has homes on larger parcels, resulting in a density of less than 4 units per acre. The applicant has submitted a concurrent subdivision request, Fairview Point Subdivision (SUB ); however, a revised

51 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of 10 1 plat reflecting 10 buildable lots has not been submitted. Upon submission, subdivision staff will review the request against applicable guidelines within the ordinances and the comprehensive plan. The resultant plat will ensure the density as prescribed by the zone change is compatible to existing land uses in the vicinity. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. This request meets the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. Upon approval the property would be subdivided into approximately 10 buildable residential lots which equates to a density of less than 4.0 dwelling units per acre. The proposed rezone would aid in maintaining and preserving the compatibility of surrounding single family residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where infrastructure currently exists. Comments from public agencies indicate that the proposed use will not place an undue burden on existing transportation and service facilities in the vicinity. The proposed zone modification will not place an undue burden on the existing public facilities. The Ada County Highway District finds that this development is estimated to generate an additional 150 vehicle trips per day. It was determined in correspondence dated January 11, 2005 that this project will not create an undue burden on the public road network. The vehicular transportation system within the vicinity will not be negatively impacted by the proposed development if the applicant complies with all conditions imposed by Ada County Highway District. Boise Public Works is reviewing the project and will require the installation and use of public facilities and utilities as appropriate. Services are adequate to allow rezoning of the property. Sewer infrastructure runs immediately along the south side of the property. Upon development of the property, connection to central sanitary sewer is required and applicant will be required to extend the sewer system into the site. No other agencies have responded stating that the proposed rezone will adversely impact the delivery of services. 3. Reasons for the Decision (for Ordinance Publication) The Boise City Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the parcel as Low Density Residential, 4 DU/acre. The Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix allows an R-1C zoning at this location. Policy of the Boise City Comprehensive Plan indicates that zone change requests that are consistent with the Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan should be approved by the City pursuant to appropriate findings related to service levels and other requirements of the Comprehensive Plan.

52 CAR Boise City Planning and Zoning Commission / February 13, of 10 1 residential uses. This development will minimize suburban sprawl by providing additional residential opportunities within areas of the City where public service infrastructure currently exists. The rezone will not have a negative impact on the public transportation system. 4. Conditions of Approval 1. The development agreement shall be reviewed by legal staff prior to the city council hearing. The applicant must work with legal staff to revise the language contained within the draft to be acceptable and final. 2. The development agreement must include a conceptual revised plat not exceeding 10 buildable lots. The diagram must be labeled PLAT EXHIBIT. 3. The development agreement will limit the residential density to no more than 10 dwelling units on the area of land which is the subject of the rezone. 4. Proof of recording must be submitted by the applicant prior to the third reading of the rezone ordinance by the Boise City Council. Failure to record the development agreement within the time frame shall automatically render approval of the rezone null and void. 5. The rezone shall be to R-1C/DA (Single Family Residential with a Development Agreement). 6. Prior to any building permit application for development on this site that requires R-1C zoning, the rezone to R-1C/DA shall be approved by the Boise City Council, published as a legal notice, and the development agreement recorded.

The site is located off of Edelweiss road Township 4N Range IE Section 33. The Ada County Assessor's parcel number for the site is SO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS The existing site is zoned A (open land) rezoning is requested with a zoning designation of R- IC. The site is contiguous to R-IC zoning on both the north and west boundaries. The Boise City Comprehensive Plan (BCCP) Land Use Map designates the area as Low Density Residential. The BCCP indicates that low density residential is suitable for single-family dwellings with a density range of four units per acre. The Boise City land use consistently matrix lists R-1C as an approved zone. The residential density for this proposal complies with this policy based on a gross density of 3.94 dwelling units per acre. The proposed density is also in conformance with the Wagon Wheel Cove Subdivision to the north, the Westchester Place Subdivision to the west, and Heather Glen to the southwest. The proposed project will be an infill project and comply with the following Boise City Comprehensive Plan (BCCP) Goals and Objectives (BCCP text in italics): I. Chapter 8, Land Use Goal - Achieve a civ that minimizes suburban sprawl, that provides for a diverse mixture of lvestvles and atmospheres and a sense of place that varies throughout the different areas of the City, and that eficiently provides basic services and facilities in close proximity to where people live. The subdivision is ~roposed in an area that minimizes suburban mixture of housing throughout the. project.. Due to the infill nature of readily available to the site.. ~, ~. i~ ' a --':.,..I..i.. :

58 2. Chapter 8, Land Use Objective 6 - Residential land-uses shall be designated to provide a variety of' housing densities, product types and aflordable costs, and shall be located and distributed in a munner that is compatible with adjacent uses und promotes trunsit and pedestrian activity. The developer proposes a housing style that is unique and desirable with recessed garages and front porches. Pedestrian activity is also promoted because of the projects proximity to schools and commercial centers. 3. Chapter 7.2 Community Design Goal - Create a community composed of' neighborhoods in which services and amenities are convenient, visually pleasing andproperly integrated and designed to encourage walking and cycling. The project encourages walking and cycling by the use of a narrow street section to slow trafilc. Because of the infill nature of the project convenient amenities are already located in the immediate vicinity. PRELIMINARY PLA T The Farview Point Subdivision Preliminary Plat and Rezone request is for 15 buildable lots and 3 common lots. All buildable lots will be single family residential. The project is proposed to be developed in a single phase and is anticipated to commence construction in spring of Buildable lots range in size from 5,342 sq.fi. to 10,317 sq.fi. The common lots consist of drainage, irrigation, and entryrvay areas and total 12,149 sq.fi. 7.4% ofthe overall site. Existing land-use and zoning The site is currently vacant with a small tree farm. The property is surrounded on all sides by residential subdivisions. Surrounding zoning includes R-1C to the north and west, R-1B to the east and R-1A to the south. Open Space Information Common Lot 1 and 17; Block 1 will provide a large landscaped entry. Common Lot 18, Block 1 will be landscaped. All common lots will be owned and maintained by the subdivision homeowner's association. Traffic Impact and Roadway Information Farview Point Subdivision is cxpected to generate less than 150 vehicle trips per day based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual. Goldenrod and Ginger Creek will allow traffic to disperse to Cloverdale. Cloverdale is designated as an arterial street by the City of Boise, and Ada County Highway District (ACHD). These traffic counts on local streets should be well below the threshold for the number ofdaily vehicle trips, established by ACHD. Utility Information

59 Sewer and water mains will be extended throughout the subdivision kom the extension of existing sewer and water mains located in Edelweiss road. Sewer service will be through the city of Boise, which has capacity in existing lines near the site. Water will be provided through United Water, which has indicated serviceability to the site. All other utilities are readily available to the site. School District Information Meridian School District will service the area. Roadway Information The new road will be dedicated to the public and built to Ada County Highway District ("ACHD") and ISPWC standards. The road will be ACHD is standard 42 ft. street section (29 fi. back of curb to back of curb) with parking prohibited on one side. Irrigation and Drainage Information Pressure irrigation will be provided to all lots within the subdivision. The pressure irrigation system will be kom an existing pump station located adjacent to the North Slough Canal. The ownership and maintenance of the pressure irrigation system will be through Settlers Irrigation District. Storm drainage will be routed along gutters to catch basins, then through sand and grease traps, and into underground seepage beds. Pre-application Meetings A Pre-application meeting was held with Boise City Planning Staff to review the project. Discussion included rezoning to R-1C similar to the adjoining zoning to the north and west. R- 1C zoning allows for a density of 8 units per acre however 15 lots and a density of 3.94 units per acre are being requested. Pre-application conversations were also held with ACHD regarding the subdivision. The preliminary plat application, rezone application and other supporting infor~nation are attached.
