1.4 Planning Concept;
2,nd Paragraph: The Project is planned for a Base Project Density of 0.5 units per gross acre, or
3,008 dwelling units, and 245 acres for Non-Residential Use. Through the application of the
Bonus Density provisions,the Maximum Density may be increased up to 1.19 units per gross acre,
5 not to exceed 7,160 dwelling units, and 245 acres for Non-Residential Use. In the event that any
of the Non-Residential Use lands within a Planning Area are developed as residential,Developer
may allocate any unused acres for Non-Residential Use to another Planning Area as provided in
this section 1. In the event Additional Property is annexed the process is set forth in this section 1.
10 Bonus Density is achieved at the time of City's approval of any PUMP as follows:
• 2.5 units for each acre of a Community Center shown on such City-approved PUMP.
• 10 units for each acre of a Neighborhood Center shown on such City-approved PUMP.
• 1 unit for each acre of Regional Open Space shown on each City-approved PUMP and
cumulatively for all prior City-approved PUMPs over and above the 20% Open Space
15 minimum requirement not to exceed 1,250 units.
• 0.5 units for each acre of Community Open Space shown on each City-approved PUMP
and cumulatively for all prior City-approved PUMPs over and above the 20% Open Space
minimum requirement.
• 10% of the total units for a Regional Open Space funding mechanism as described further
20 in Section 2.6(f)herein.
To achieve Bonus Density in a PUMP,there must be a minimum Open Space of 20% in such
PUMP, which Open Space shall be first calculated using Community Open Space. Bonus Density
shall be re-calculated upon the submittal of each PUMP and/or plat.
25
Spring Valley is being planned as five different Planning Areas, as set forth in Exhibit B and
Exhibit(s)D, D1, D2,D3,D4 and D5;the density allocation planned for each Planning Area is
summarized in Table 1 below. Each Planning Area represents a unique design based upon: (i)
topography; (ii)location within the Development Plan; (iii)existing and planned transportation
30 corridors; (iv)a balance of commercial,employment and residential uses to promote trip capture
within the Project; (v) a wide array of housing and employment options to create a live/work
environment; (vi)regional and community Open Space; and(vii)dedication or donation of public
facility sites for schools,police and fire, library,parks,public and civic uses. Within all Planning
Areas a minimum of 50% of all dwelling units, and 65% of all single-family detached lots less
35 than 5,000 square feet, and 50% of all single-family detached lots less than 8,000 square feet shall
abut some form of Open Space.
1.6 Planning Unit Master Plan(PUMP):
Each Planning Unit Master Plan shall be based on the Planning Area plans set forth in
40 Exhibit(s)D, D1, D2, D3,D4 and D5 and the Conceptual Development Plan set forth in
Exhibit E. The Conceptual Development Plan will be updated when necessary to reflect
modifications or to refine phasing within the respective Planning Unit Master Plans. It is not
necessary for Planning Unit Master Plans to encompass the same geographical area as a Planning
Area. A Planning Unit Master Plan should reflect the area within the Project that the Planning
45 Unit Developer is proposing to subdivide. The Planning Unit Master Plan may address a portion of
one or more Planning Area(s) or Planning Unit(s), a complete Planning Area or Planning Unit,
and/or more than one Planning Area or Planning Unit. The Planning Unit Master Plan shall be
filed with the Zoning Administrator for review as to completeness and compliance with the
application requirements of Title 11A of Eagle City Code and this Agreement. Thereafter, the
50 Planning Unit Master Plan shall be reviewed by the Planning&Zoning Commission for
Page 8 of 39
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\M3 Spring Valley\Applications\Planning Unit Master Plans\2012\PU-O1-12\PU-Ol-l2 pztldoc
recommendation to City Council in accordance with the notice and hearing procedures of
Title 11A of Eagle City Code. If the Planning Unit Master Plan is substantially in conformance
with this Agreement and Title 11A of Eagle City Code,the Planning&Zoning Commission and
City Council shall not unreasonably withhold approval.

1.7 Allocation; Density:
This Agreement provides for a Maximum Density of 1.19 units/acre, or 7,160 dwelling units, as
provided in section 1.4 of this Agreement, and a maximum of 245 acres of Non-Residential Uses
10 within the Property. The number of dwelling units shall not exceed 7,160 dwelling units for the
entire Project unless Additional Property is annexed into City and made subject to this Agreement.
Developer shall also have the right to allocate residential density and/or Non-Residential Use
acreage, and the Development Rights associated with such residential density and/or Non-
Residential Use acreage, from Planning Area(s)or Planning Unit(s)to other Planning Area(s) or
15 Planning Unit(s)at any time, and Developer may allocate any unused residential density or Non-
Residential Use acreage originally allocated to a Planning Area or Planning Unit to another
Planning Area or Planning Unit in the event that the preliminary or final platting of a Planning
Area or Planning Unit results in unused residential density and/or unused Non-Residential Use
acreage,provided such allocation: (i)does not exceed the Maximum Planning Area Density;
20 (ii)does not exceed the Maximum Density for the Property; (iii)does not exceed the maximum
Non-Residential Use acreage allowed for the Property; (iv)does not allow a use otherwise
prohibited; or(v)cause a material change to this Agreement without prior amendment to this
Agreement and compliance with the notice and hearing requirements of Title 11A of Eagle City
Code. The allocation of residential density and/or Non-Residential Use acreage between Planning
25 Areas and Planning Units is consistent with City's planning efforts to encourage planning
flexibility based on physical and market conditions while protecting private property rights.
Developer shall deliver notice to City that an allocation of residential density or Non-Residential
Use acreage shall be made from one Planning Area or Planning Unit to another Planning Area or
Planning Unit and shall provide City with a statement of the number of residential units per gross
30 acre and/or Non-Residential Use acreage being allocated. Any such allocation shall not necessitate
a formal amendment to this Agreement,but shall be retained in City's official file for the Property.

2.2 Water:
(a) Municipal Water Right;Monitoring Plan: Pursuant to that certain Assignment of
Application and Permit dated and filed with IDWR on June 13, 2011, which remains in effect
and is applicable to this Agreement, Developer has conveyed to City ground water right no. 63-
25 32573 (the"Municipal Water Right"), which is to be used to provide municipal water service to
the Project for all of its municipal uses, including without limitation irrigation, storage,
residential,commercial, industrial, and other municipal uses. The Municipal Water Right
requires ground water monitoring in accordance with its Attachment B, which is a March 17,
2011 Technical Memorandum setting forth a water level/water production monitoring and
30 reporting plan (the"Monitoring Plan"). Developer has been implementing the Monitoring Plan
and is responsible for all costs of implementing the Monitoring Plan until a Completed Portion
is conveyed to City. As Completed Portions are conveyed to City,City shall be responsible to
pay its proportionate share of the total Monitoring Plan costs,its share being calculated as
follows: total Monitoring Plan costs (A); multiplied by the results of the number of connections
35 to the Water System by a"customer(s)"or"user(s)"as defined by Eagle City Code Title 6
Chapter 5 (B); divided by the total Project residential density of 7,160 dwelling units (C). (A x
(B -C)). Nothing in this Agreement, or action taken pursuant to this Agreement, shall be
deemed to convey or grant any interest in the Municipal Water Right to Developer.
(b) Irrigation and Related Uses: The Irrigation System shall be effluent(including reuse)or
40 other systems used for storage,delivery and the use of treated effluent on site, any water right
or entitlement associated with ditch company shares, any surface water or ground water
(excluding Permit#63-32573 or any existing or future water rights held by the City) or any
additional water right or permits that may be associated with irrigation, aesthetics, amenities, or
open space purposes. Connection to the water system shall be consistent with paragraph 2.2(a)
45 of this Agreement. Developer may provide additional water rights or entitlements for use on
the Project,through Developer's own system or otherwise, for irrigation, aesthetic, amenity
and/or open space use not served by the Water System within the Project, and shall make best
efforts to provide for these uses with surface water, such as Farmers Union Canal Company or
Re-Use Water or existing irrigation wells on the Property that are not part of the Water System.
Page 10 of 39
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\M3 Spring Valley\Appfications\Planning Unit Master Plans\2012WU-O1-12\PU-01-12 pzf.doc
The method of providing water for irrigation uses shall be at the discretion, and under the
control, of Developer so long as an adequate system and source of supply is provided,including
a source of supply consistent with Sections 2.2(a) and 2.3 below. Any irrigation system shall
meet the requirements of Eagle City Code Title 11A. If Developer so requests, City will give
5 good faith consideration to establishing a city irrigation system pursuant to Title 50,Chapter
18, Idaho Code, or otherwise,to deliver irrigation water to the Project. If City decides not to
establish a city irrigation system,Developer may establish or contract with an irrigation or other
special district, a canal company, or similar entity to serve the Project's irrigation needs
consistent with the provisions of this Section. Nothing in this section shall limit water delivery
10 from City to Developer at a wholesale rate during those times when such water is available
under the Municipal Water Right if it is not needed to serve other municipal water needs in the
Project, and Developer has not yet constructed the facilities or generated the re-use or other
irrigation water necessary to serve such needs.
2.3 Wastewater Treatment and Disposal:
15 (a)Eagle Sewer District: Sanitary sewer collection,treatment and disposal shall be provided
by Sewer District or some other legally constituted public or private provider allowed to
operate in City. Developer agrees to annex to Eagle Sewer District and further agrees not to

D. DISCUSSION:
• The Eagle Comprehensive Plan designates the property as Foothills Residential and the
project, as approved in the Development agreement dated January 14, 2014, was found to be
consistent with the Eagle Comprehensive Plan.
20 • This application was submitted in compliance with Eagle City Code 11A-7 and pursuant to the
requirements of Paragraph 1.6 for the Spring Valley Development Agreement.
• Pursuant to the applicant's submittal "Spring Valley PUMP No.1 Exhibit 6.0 Existing
Topographic Conditions" date stamped by the City on April 10, 2014, the applicant proposes
to grade 0.6 acres of slopes in excess of 25%. The Eagle City Council approved RZ-19-06
25 MOD 1: M3 Hillside Development and Grading Standards on November 24, 2009. Pursuant
to the Spring Valley Hillside Development and Grading Standards and ECC 11A, the
applicant shall receive City approval of all grading plans prior to site disturbance.
• The applicant's submittal "Spring Valley PUMP No.1 Exhibit 6.0 Existing Topographic
Conditions" date stamped by the City on April 10, 2014, does not show topography and
30 necessary grading associated with the reuse/wastewater land application. The applicant should
be required to submit an updated Spring Valley PUMP No.1 Exhibit 6.C-Existing
Topographic Conditions which includes the reuse/wastewater land application site.
• The applicant is requesting the approval of 249 units on 232 developable acres. The density
provisions in paragraph 1.4 of the Spring Valley Development Agreement establish that the
35 PUMP based residential allocation is 1 unit per 2 acres (116 units) which shall be removed
from the overall base project allocation of 3,008 units. The PUMP may achieve bonus density
based on design components, the provision of additional open space, and the funding of
regional open space. The table below details the residential unit calculations and bonus
provision for PUMP No. 1:

10 • According to Paragraph 1.7 of the Spring Valley Development Agreement, units once
achieved (either through the base density or bonus density provisions) may be allocated to
current planning area or placed in a bank to be applied to a future planning areas within the
project so long as the overall maximum density of the planning area (as identified in Exhibit
D4 of the Spring Valley Development Agreement) is not exceeded. PUMP No.1 through the
15 base allocation of 1 unit per 2 acres (116 units) and bonus provisions (35.7 units) does not
achieve the desired residential allocation for PUMP No. 1 (249 units) so the additional units
needed (97.3 units) must be deducted from the overall project base allocation thus reducing
Page 21 of 39
K:Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\M3 Spring Valley\Applications\Planning Unit Master Plans\2012\PU-01-12\PU-01-12 pzfdoc
the remaining unallocated residential allocation for the project to 2,987 units.
• The applicant has not identified in the Spring Valley PUMP No.1 a neighborhood center (no
community center is planned in the Southwest Planning Area)consistent with paragraph 1.4 of
the Spring Valley development agreement so no density bonus was applied.
5 • The applicant has not provided the City a funding source for regional open space consistent
with paragraph 1.4 and 2.6(f) of the Spring Valley development agreement so no density
bonus was applied.
• According the Exhibit D4,page D4-1, of the Spring Valley Development Agreement the
Residential densities with in the Southwestern Planning Area are to be"1 to 10 units per acre
10 but may also contain estate type equestrian lots on 1-2 acres and larger." The overall density
of Spring Valley PUMP No.1 is 1.08, slightly over the 1.07 for the entire southwest planning
area. Future submittals within the Southwestern Planning area should be evaluated in
conjunction with this approval to ensure the accumulative maximum density of 1.07 units per
acres is not exceeded.

within PUMP No. 1.
• The Streets and Circulation Master Plan for PUMP No. 1 includes a looping of the Farmers
Union Canal through the site requiring construction adjacent to and crossing of the facility. A
letter date stamped on January 22, 2014, was received from Jerry Kiser representing the
5 Farmers Union Ditch Company's position. Mr. Kiser states that the M3 agreement for
crossing the ditch has expired and a new agreement is needed. Further,that the ditch company
has concerns about the location and separation between open space uses and the ditch within
SWA-1, SWA-2b, SWA-3 and SWA-4. On March 19, 2014,the applicant provided the City a
copy of a new agreement with the ditch company for crossing and work within the ditch
10 company easement. The applicant should continue to work with the ditch company to address
issues or concerns associated to the design and development of open space along the facility.
• The City Engineer has provided a detailed review of the proposed Water Facilities Plan
Amendment No.1, date stamped March 19, 2014(see Engineers letter date stamped by the
City on April 15, 2014). Staff recommends the applicant be required to conform to the
15 conditions established in the City Engineer's letter.
• The Water Facility Plan PUMP #1 Amendment requires DEQ approval prior to the applicant
moving forward on the design of any improvements on the water system. In addition, DEQ
requires the submittal of a Preliminary Engineering Report for review and approval prior to
preparing and submitting detailed plans and specifications.
20 • The applicant's narrative, date stamped January 16, 2014, states and the Spring Valley PUMP
No.1-Land Use Plan (Exhibit 6.B), date stamped by the City on April 10, 2014, depicts that a
municipal well site is located in the "future development area." The applicant should show
both (2) municipal well sites on the PUMP No. 1 Land Use Plan. Further, since the one future
well site located in the "future development area" will not be platted as part of the first
25 subdivision in PUMP No. 1 (PP-06-12) the applicant should provide a well easement
consistent with DEQ standards and an access easement to the site and for any necessary
distribution system prior to submittal of a final plat within PUMP No. 1.
• Due to the variation of elevations throughout the development and the need for multiple
pressure zones, the water system in M3 will require the use of individual on-lot pressure
30 reducing valves associated with domestic use and irrigation in areas where pressures are
expected to exceed 80 psi. The home owners will be responsible for the maintenance of these
valves. In order to ensure home owner notification and inspection of the valves, a standard
should be established for the location of the valves on site and the plat should note which lots
will contain PRV. The standards should be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer prior
35 to submittal of the first final plat within PUMP No.1.
• Since irrigation to the residential lots within the development is planned to be served by the
municipal water system, an approved Backflow Prevention Device (BFP) should be installed
on the user side of the water meter with the location approved by the City of Eagle Water
Department prior to the submittal of the first final plat within PUMP No. 1. The BFPs will be
40 owned and maintained by the individual homeowner. The City will require that the
homeowner provide verification that the BFP has been installed and all necessary inspections
and testing have been completed. The CC&Rs should include provisions of the ownership
and maintenance of the BFPs and identify all lots that are required to have a BFP. The BFP
systems should meet the requirements of Eagle City Code Title 6-5A.

• According to the applicant's Wastewater Facilities Master Plan, the Eagle Sewer District will
be the entity responsible for primary treatment of wastewater but initially the applicant will be
responsible for disposal of the solids and water. Solids will be trucked to the Star Sewer
District for disposal and disposal of the liquid will be the responsibility of M3 and/or the
5 HOA. As part of the PUMP No.1- Land Use (Exhibit 6.B) date stamped by the City on April
10, 2014, M3 has identified a 90.4 acre land application site for the disposal of the liquid
wastewater. The land application site will be a required piece of infrastructure until the size of
the project allows for additional treatment and the use of reuse water for irrigation. Until that
time the sewer transmission lines and the land application site should be included within
10 easements for access to the site and line. The specific wording of the easements shall be
reviewed and approved by the City Engineer and City Attorney prior to approval of the final
plat.
• The Wastewater Facility Plan, dated April 9, 2013, was approved by DEQ on May 24, 2013,
and date stamped received by City October 3, 2013, and Technical Report for a Permit to
15 Apply Recycled Water, Dated June 17, 2013; DEQ approved August 16, 2013; Date stamped
received by City October 3, 2013, must be amended to reflect the applicant's current proposal
to not use supplemental irrigation, including municipal water, at the land application site. The
amended reports should be approved by the Eagle Sewer District and DEQ prior to submittal
of the first final plat within PUMP No.1. In addition, DEQ requires the submittal of a
20 Preliminary Engineering Report for review and approval prior to preparing and submitting
detailed plans and specifications.
• According to the applicant's Water Facilities Plan PUMP No.1 Amendment (WFP), date
stamped by the City on March, 19, 2014, the number of units planned for within the WFP is
232 but according to PUMP No. 1 Land Use Master Plan (Exhibit 6.B), date stamped by the
25 City on April 10, 2014, the applicant is requesting approval of 249 units. The applicant
should be limited to platting 232 units until an updated Water Facilities Plan is submitted and
approved by the City and DEQ.
• The applicant received a conditional letter of map revision (CLOMR) from FEMA, date
stamped by the City on November 18, 2013, attached hereto. The applicant should be
30 required to comply with all floodway construction, development, and permitting requirements
in Eagle City Code.
• According to the applicant's PUMP No.1 Drainage Study, dated stamped by the City on
October 3, 2013, the developed drainage flow rates will not exceed the existing conditions. A
storm water drainage report that accounts for existing and proposed drainage flows should be
35 submitted with the first final plat application within PUMP No. 1 and be updated with each
successive submittal. The applicant should demonstrate that project runoff does not exceed
historical rates at any point in the development.
• Due to the limited analysis of the irrigation system presented in the Water Facility Plan PUMP
No. 1 Amendment, the applicant is required to submit an Irrigation Master Plan prior to
40 submittal of a final plat application within PUMP No.1. The Irrigation Master Plan should
provide more specific analysis and include how the pressurized irrigation system will interact
between the surface water, irrigation groundwater, municipal water system, and the reuse of
effluent. A revised irrigation master plan should be reviewed and approved by the City
Engineer as part of the first final plat submittal within PUMP No. 1.
45 • No public facilities are proposed in PUMP No.1 and the City has not received requests from
the affected agencies requesting mitigation as allowed pursuant to paragraph 2.5 of the Spring

• The M3 project is split into two fire districts, Eagle and Star. Prior to November of 2013, the
two districts were operating under a joint management structure. Pursuant to the Development
Agreement, M3 is required to receive approval of a Wildfire Management Plan from the
applicable fire districts. On November 20, 2012, the City received a letter of approval from
5 the Eagle Fire District (acting as a joint approval for Star Fire District) of the Wildfire
Management Plan (see attached). Since receipt of the wildfire plan approval, the two districts
are no longer operating under a joint management structure and are now individually managed
districts. PUMP No. 1 is located within the jurisdictional boundary of the Star Fire District.
To date, the City has not received a letter of comment or approval from the Star Fire District
10 addressing the implementation of the Wildfire Management Plan or PUMP No.1. Staff is
concerned that in the restructuring of the fire departments Star Fire District may not be aware
of the requirements to enforce the Wildfire Management Plan. The applicant should be
required to provide a letter from Star Fire District recognizing the Wildfire management Plan
and the District's ability to serve the project.

• The applicant's narrative does not identify any parks, trails or open space facilities for
operation, maintenance, or dedication to the City of Eagle. The narrative does identify a E-
mile"Regional Open Space"along Willow Creek. According to the Spring Valley
5 Development agreement regional open space is defined as being"used by the general public."
The Applicant should address how the access to the general public will be maintained over the
life of the project prior to the submittal of a final plat within PUMP No.1.
• Pursuant to ECC 11A-7C-10b the applicant should provide:
10 "A tabulation of Open Space acreage by Regional Open Space, Community Open Space
(including Open Space within neighborhoods or parcels)and other Open Space(including on-
lot Open Space)including cumulative totals in connection with previous PUMPs."
In staff's review the following concerns have been found:
• The applicant's narrative addresses that each neighborhood shall have access to
15 regional and community trails within the project. PUMP No.1 Parks,Trail and
Open Space Plan only identifies Regional Trails but pursuant to ECC 11A-7C-
10(e)the PUMP shall include the"Location of regional and community pathway
and trail facilities,including typical pathway and trail cross-sections, materials
and trail signage."The applicant should be required to update the PUMP No.1
20 Parks,Trail and Open Space Plan to identify trails and the trail cross section
consistent with ECC 11A-7C-10(e) as well as be required to demonstrate at the
time of preliminary plat how each sub planning area, specifically SWA-2&
SWA-4,have access to the regional or community trail system.

• The applicant's narrative (pg. 7) details that the community park located in SWA-
6 will include: "a regional trailhead for pedestrians and cyclists with parking for
25 cars. This community park exceeds the area of a planned neighborhood
5 park...as shown on DA Exhibit I and replaces the equestrian facility." When the
development agreement modification was heard before the City Council the
concern about the removal of equestrian facilities was raised as part of the hearing
and this trailhead was cited as a location for equestrian users to gain access to the
regional BLM trails. In the applicant's letter, date stamped by the City on March
10 19, 2014, the applicant states their agreement is to provide parking and access for
five (5) trucks with trailers for equestrian users. Due to the proposed timing of
construction the trailhead (with last final plat or prior to the issuance of the 196th
building permit)the applicant proposes to grant to the City a temporary access and
use easement for a temporary trailhead until the time the formal trailhead is
15 developed. The Parks and Pathways Development Commission should review the
temporary access and use easement and provide recommendation to the City
Council prior to approval of the first preliminary plat in PUMP No.1. The design
of the facility should be reviewed by the Eagle Design Review Board and the
Parks and Pathways Development Commission prior to City Council action on a
20 final plat,including the site.
• The City's environmental consultant ECS reviewed the applicant's Habitat Mitigation Plan
(HMP)in 2010 and on November 12, 2010,issued a letter of adequacy stating that the plan
was sufficient"if all actions identified in the 2010, M3 Habitat Mitigation Plan will be
implemented." The applicant,in association with PUMP No.1, submitted the Habitat
25 Monitoring Plan as required in the HMP. In the letter date stamped by the City on February
20, 2014, ECS states that the document as currently drafted is not sufficient and that additional
work and submittals are required. The applicant has subsequently worked with ECS and ECS
has provided a letter of recommendation,date stamped by the City on March 31, 2014. ECS
has expressed concern regarding the structure of the habitat maintenance authority and that
30 No.1 should be conditioned consistent with this recommendation.

• On March 10, 2014, the City received a letter from Mr. Ken Hamilton, an adjoining property
owner.
• On April 23, 2014, from Doris Schirmer, an adjoining property owner.
• Concerns were expressed to the City Council during the development agreement modification
5 hearings in 2013 and to the Eagle Sewer District at the time of Spring Valley's annexation into
the district and the ESD's approval of the Wastewater Master Plan in 2014. Neither the City
nor the ESD Board recommended relocation of the facility. Since the sewage treatment plant
location is consistent with previous approvals by the City,is not under the jurisdiction of the
City, and the location of said facility is a matter of engineered standards, staff does not
10 recommend a change of location at this time.
• During the negotiations with the Developer on the DA amendment and drafting of Title 11A,
City staff and legal counsel expressed their concerns to the Developer regarding the
commitments within the DA, Title 11A, and several master plans concerning perpetual
funding and ongoing operation and maintenance. Based on the language of the DA, Title 11A,
15 proposed master plans, and representation by the Developer, it is our understanding that the
Spring Valley Community Association or another Owner's Association will be responsible for
some or all of these development commitments through their respective condition,covenants,
and restrictions ("CC&R's"). On April 23, 2014,the City received a memo from the City
attorney addressing these issues (attached hereto). The applicant should be required to address
20 these concerns prior to the submittal of a final plat within PUMP No. 1.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT:
Based upon the information provided staff to date, staff recommends approval with the site specific
conditions of approval and standard conditions of approval as provided within the staff report.
