• Eagle City Code, Section 9-4-1-8: Underground Utilities:
Underground utilities are required.
s Eagle City Code, 9-4-1-9: Water Supply and Sewer Systems:
C. Pressurized Irrigation Facilities:
All residential dwelling units shall be provided with a pressurized irrigation system to be
served with irrigation water unless a waiver, as outlined herein, is approved by the city
council.
The city has adopted supplemental standards and regulations (titled "Pressure Irrigation
Standards", incorporated herein by reference and available at Eagle city hall) pertaining to
the design, construction and maintenance of pressurized irrigation systems. Plans and
documents reflecting the required standards and regulations shall be submitted with the
application for a preliminary plat.
The following design requirements and the requirements provided within the supplemental
"Pressure Irrigation Standards" shall apply to the pressurized irrigation system. These
standards shall supplement all other regulations, and where at variance with other laws,
regulations, ordinances or resolutions, the more restrictive requirements shall apply. The
council may determine that revisions to the supplemental standards are warranted and
make such revisions by act of a resolution.
a. The pressurized irrigation system may have a backup connection to a potable water
system with the approval of the city, city engineer, and the potable water purveyor,
and the installation of a state approved reduced pressure backflow prevention
assembly or an air gap separating the irrigation system and the potable water system.
The operation, maintenance, associated costs, and annual inspection of the backup
connection and the backup system's reduced pressure backflow prevention assembly
shall be the responsibility of the entities as determined in "Pressure Irrigation
Standards" of this section. Individual backup connections to individual lots by
Page 8 of 22
KAI'L=w$ tX-p1, �jp,k ApplieMkk ns`gti LAI.. M20I IrMEwulem= S,�,b ctf,dtrn'
individual lot owners shall be prohibited with the exception of the common area lots
owned and maintained by the homeowners' association.
b. The pressurized irrigation system shall be designed by a licensed professional
engineer registered in the state of Idaho, and the construction plans for the system
shall be reviewed and approved by the city engineer.
2. The requirement for installation of a pressurized irrigation system may be waived by the
city council when the applicant has established that any of the following situations exist
(the sale or transfer of an existing water right shall not be grounds for requesting a waiver
pursuant to this provision):
a. Where a sufficient surface irrigation water right does not exist for the property. The
lack of surface irrigation water right shall be documented in writing by the appropriate
irrigation district or canal company and the department of water resources and shall be
submitted with the subdivision preliminary plat. In this case a waiver shall only be
granted for that portion of the subdivision that cannot be served.
b. Where an existing surface water right cannot be delivered to the property by an
irrigation district or canal company due to current delivery capacity or scheduling. In
these situations the city council may still require the installation of the pressure
irrigation system, provided water rights can be made available to the property and
delivery system modifications can be made so irrigation water can be supplied within
two (2) years.
c. Where the applicant has provided for another means of delivery such as flood
irrigation, if approved by the city engineer. The applicant shall present the proposed
alternative delivery system to the city engineer at the time the waiver is requested,
d. That due to the specific circumstances surrounding a new subdivision, the cost of
obtaining water rights, reestablishing water rights or developing the system would
impose an undue economic hardship on the developer. For purposes of this section, an
undue economic hardship shall consist of a showing that the cost per lot to develop the
pressurized irrigation system would be twenty five percent (25%) higher than the cost
per lot for providing a pressurized irrigation system to subdivisions of similar size and
density constructed in the city within the previous two (2) years; or the cost per lot of
the pressurized irrigation system would exceed five percent (5%) of the expected per
lot market value of the subdivision.
The developer shall bear the burden of providing documentation, acceptable to the
city engineer and city council, demonstrating and supporting the estimated costs of
construction of the pressurized irrigation system, and the cost per lot for irrigation
systems in those subdivisions built in the last two (2) years as noted above, and the
expected market value of the subdivision lots. For phased developments, costs will be
analyzed over all phases of the development rather than the first phase only.
3. Should installation of a pressurized irrigation system be waived by the city engineer, as
outlined herein, compliance to Idaho Code 31-3805 is still required.
4. Requests for waivers shall be submitted to the city with the preliminary plat application
and shall be accompanied by an irrigation report, prepared by a licensed Idaho registered
professional engineer, stating the location and availability of surface irrigation water and
documenting the basis for the waiver request. If applicable, the irrigation report shall be
accompanied by a letter from the irrigation district or canal company stating that water
rights and/or a delivery system are not available to the property. (Ord. 566, 5-15-2007)

• Eagle City Code, Section 9-4-1-10: Storm Drainage; Flood Controls:
A. Adequate Storm Drainage System: An adequate storm drainage system to accommodate storm
water runoff from the public rights of way shall be required in all subdivisions. The
requirements for each particular subdivision shall be established by the Ada County Highway
District and/or the Idaho Transportation Department, and construction shall follow the
specifications and procedures established by said Ada County Highway District or Idaho
Transportation Department.
H. Storm Drainage Retention Facilities: On site retention or partial on site retention of storm
drainage from new developments is required in any case where, due to development activity,
such drainage would be increased either in peak flow rate or in total quantity from that
previously discharged from the land or property being developed. Complete retention is
required in all cases except those where: l) runoff flows directly, without crossing intervening
property, into an existing drain ditch or other drainage facility that is operated and maintained
by a drainage receiver, and 2) such drainage receiver agrees, as evidenced by valid and
binding public document, to receive a certain definite quantity of storm drainage from the
development. Retention on site of any drainage not so accepted by a drainage receiver or any
drainage in excess of the quantity accepted by a drainage receiver is a duty of the current
property owner at any time.
Retention or partial retention facilities shall be provided as an essential part of such
development. Design and construction of such retention facilities shall conform to standards,
entitled "Design Standards For Storm Drainage Retention Facilities", adopted by resolution of
the city council, and which standards may, from time to time, be amended by subsequent
resolution of the council. All facilities shall be maintained on an ongoing basis in order to
perform as designed. Should any of the provisions of the supplemental standards conflict with
the standards set forth herein, the higher standard shall apply.
• Eagle City Code, Section 9-4-1-11: Fire Hydrants and Water Mains:
Adequate fire protection shall be required in accordance with the appropriate fire district
standards.
D. DISCUSSION:
• The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the property as Residential One. The applicant
has submitted annexation, rezone, and combined preliminary plat and final plat applications for
Eusterman Subdivision, a 5.61 -acre, 2 -lot residential subdivision. The maximum overall density of
the project will not exceed .40 -units per acre.
+ Staff has reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed combined preliminary and
final plat and, in terms of Eagle City Code Section 9-2-3(B) "1 thru 5" (minimum criteria to
combine a preliminary and final plat), has made the following conclusions:
The proposed combined preliminary and final plat:
1. Does not exceed ten (10) lots;
2. No new street dedication or street widening is involved;
3. No major special development considerations are involved such as development in a
floodplain, hillside development or the like;
4. All required information for both preliminary and final plat is complete and in an acceptable
form; and

5. The proposed subdivision is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan or any provision of
the Zoning Title of the City.
The subject property is a lot located within Ray's Acres Subdivision (Lot 4, Block 1). The
subdivision plat for Rays Acres Subdivision (Ada County instrument #851145) delineates front
and side utility easements to be 10 -feet in width. The Ray's Acres Subdivision plat also delineates
a 30 -foot wide easement located adjacent to the rear property line (southern). The final plat, date
stamped by the City on March 3, 2015, identifies an eight foot (8') wide landscape easement
located adjacent to West Floating Feather Road. The final plat also delineates 10 -foot wide utility
easements (originally dedicated with Ray's Acres Subdivision) located adjacent to the east and
west property lines. The width of the utility easements on the subject property, in conjunction with
the easement width located on the adjacent lots, is 20 -feet in width. The final plat also delineates
an easement located between Lot 1 and Lot 2, Block 1, to be a total of 19 -feet in width. The final
plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, also delineates the same easement and plat note
#1 states, "An eight (8) foot wide permanent public utilities and landscape easement is hereby
designated along all lot lines common to a public right-of-way as shown on this plat. A ten (10)
foot wide public utilities is hereby designated along each side of interior lot lines as shown on this
plat." Plat note #2 of the final plat states, "A portion of Lot 1, Block I, shall be subject to a
common driveway easement in favor of Lot 2, Block 1, as shown on this plat. Said portion of Lot
1, Block 1, shall be subject to a blanket utility easement." The final plat also delineates this area on
the map portion (with hash marks) of the plat. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-3-6,
unobstructed utility easements shall be provided along front, rear, and side lot lines. The utility
easement is required to be a minimum 12 -feet in width. Also, unobstructed drainage easements
shall be provided in conjunction with the utility easement along side lot lines or as required by the
City Council. Total easement width, including the utility easement should be a minimum of 12 -
feet in width. Further, the final plat does not identify any irrigation easements located within the
subdivision. The applicant should provide a revised final plat delineating a 12 -foot wide public
utility easement located adjacent to the West Floating Feather Road right-of-way. The revised final
plat should be provided prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat.
The applicant should provide a revised final plat with a new plat note which states, "The public
utility, drainage, and irrigation easements shall be as shown on the final plat." The revised final
plat should be provided prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat.
The preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, shows an existing irrigation
ditch located adjacent to West FIoating Feather Road will be relocated approximately 25 -feet south
of the existing location to a location approximately 20 -feet into Lot 2, Block 1. The applicant
should be required to provide a revised final plat that shows the re -located irrigation ditch located
in proximity to the north property line of Lot 2, Block 1, to be located within an irrigation
easement. The revised final plat should be provided prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat.
The preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, does not identify any storm
water facilities nor does it note anything on the plat in regard to retention of storm water. Pursuant
to Eagle City Code Section 9-4-1-10, the applicant should demonstrate that storm water from
individual lots is handled by storm drainage facility or should place a note on the final plat stating
that all storm water from the individual lots is to be retained on the individual lots prior to the City
Clerk signing the final plat.
• The applicant is not proposing to construct the required landscape buffer area/common lot located
adjacent to West FIoating Feather Road. The subject property is bordered on the north by West
Floating Feather Road. The 2035 Planning Functional Classification Map shows West Floating
Feather Road as a minor arterial. Pursuant to Eagle City Code, Section 8-2Am7(J)(4)(b), the
applicant is required to construct a 50 -foot wide buffer area to be located within a common lot
Page l I of 22
KAILanning Ikpl agk AppiKatKmt1SU11SL016U'ustcnnan Sub odd w°
located between the residential lots within the subdivision and the right-of-way line of the adjacent
roadway. The required buffer area is to contain a minimum Five to eight foot (5' to 8') high berm,
decorative block wall, cultured stone, decorative rock, or similarly designed concrete wall, or
combination thereof. The required berm is to contain the following plants per one hundred (100)
linear feet of right of way: four (4) shade trees, five (5) evergreen trees, and twenty four (24)
shrubs. Each required shade tree may be substituted with two (2) flowering/ornamental trees,
provided that not more than fifty percent (50%) of the shade trees are substituted. The applicant's
narrative, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, indicates they are requesting to provide an
alternative to the requirements of Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(J)(4)(b), since they are only
proposing two (2) residential lots with homes to be located farther back from the roadway. The
preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, delineates a proposed front building
setback line (located within Lot 2, Block 1) of 100 -feet in width from West Floating Feather Road.
The narrative further indicates that due to the proposed zoning no common open space is required
pursuant to Eagle City Code due to the low density and there will be no homeowners association.
The site contains an irrigation ditch, located adjacent to West Floating Feather Road, which
provides irrigation water for the site. The applicant is proposing to continue to flood irrigate the
property, therefore the required berm located adjacent to West Floating Feather Road will impede
the flow of irrigation water for the site. The applicant has indicated that the requirement of a buffer
berm is highly impractical due to the site containing only two (2) rural lots on over five (5) acres
and due to the desire of the applicant to continue flood irrigation from the ditch located adjacent to
West Floating Feather Road. The applicant has also indicated that the cost of full compliance with
providing the required buffer berm will be near $100,000. Staff will defer to the Commission and
the Council in regard to required buffer area/common lot to be located adjacent to West Floating
Feather Road. Should the required buffer area/common lot (located adjacent to West Floating
Feather Road) be waived, the front setback (measured from West Floating Feather Road) should
be 100 -feet in width. The applicant should provide a revised final plat with a new plat note that
states, "The front setback measured from the property line located adjacent to West FIoating
Feather Road should be 100 -feet in width." The revised final plat should be provided prior to the

+ The preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, shows an existing garage located
approximately 140 -feet in front of the existing house located on Lot 1, Block 1. The applicant is
proposing a development agreement to allow for the construction of an accessory dwelling unit
which will be attached to the existing garage. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-3-5(U)(3),
accessory dwelling units shall not be located in front of the front plane of the principal structure
(existing house) unless otherwise permitted as part of a development agreement or PUD approval.
The applicant is requesting a development agreement to allow for an accessory dwelling unit to be
attached to the existing garage. The previous owner of the property was approved for a temporary
living quarters (TLQ) on the site and, prior to the applicant owning the property, there was a
double -wide manufactured home that was attached to the existing garage. Prior to the sale of the
property (to the applicant), the manufactured home was removed. Due to the size of the proposed
lot, the distance from West Floating Feather Road, and the Iocation of the existing garage, the
applicant should be permitted to attach an accessory dwelling unit to the existing garage. In regard
to an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) the applicant should be permitted to attach an accessory
dwelling unit to the existing accessory garage located in front of the existing residence located at
3709 West Floating Feather Road. The applicant should be required to comply with the remaining
requirements of Eagle City Code Section 8-3-5(U), prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy.
The preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, identifies a 30 -foot wide ditch
easement (per plat of Ray's Acres Subdivision) located adjacent to the southern boundary of the
subdivision and the drainage ditch. Sawtooth Law Offices provided correspondence on behalf of
Page 12 of 22
KAI'Lmning Ihptll agk Sufi,"f J4)c
Drainage District #2, date stamped by the City on March 14, 2016, which indicates that Drainage
District #2 has a drainage ditch and easement through or abutting the subject property. The
District's easement is I00 -feet, 50 -feet from each side of the centerline of the ditch. The applicant
should provide a revised final plat showing the ditch easement located adjacent to the southern
boundary of the subdivision to be a minimum of 50 -feet from the centerline of the Drainage
District #2 drainage ditch. The revised final plat should be provided prior to the City Clerk signing
the final plat.
The Central District Health Department (CDHD) provided correspondence date stamped by the
City on April 7, 2016, indicating that an application, test holes, and full engineering report will be
required. The correspondence also indicated that the applicant will be required to monitor
groundwater through the high water season (April -October). The applicant has subsequently
contacted CDHD and indicated they may construct central sewer lines to serve the site. The
applicant should either provide a copy of the Central District Health Department (CDHD)
application and engineering report or correspondence from CDHD indicating the subdivision has
been reviewed and approved by CDHD prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat.
The properties located adjacent to the site are currently utilized for agricultural operations. The
preliminary plat and final plat, date stamped by the City on March 3, 2016, do not contain a plat
note referencing Idaho Code Section 22-4503, in regard to Right to Farm. The applicant should be
required to provide a revised final plat with a new plat note that indicates, "This development
recognizes Idaho Code Section 22-4503, Right to Farm, which states: "No agricultural operation,
agricultural facility or expansion thereof shall be or become a nuisance, private or public, by any
changed conditions in or about the surrounding nonagricultural activities after it has been in
operation for more than one (1) year, when the operation, facility or expansion was not a nuisance
at the time it began or was constructed. The provisions of this section shall not apply when a
nuisance results from the improper or negligent operation of an agricultural operation, agricultural
facility or expansion thereof." The revised final plat should be provided prior to the City Clerk
signing the final plat.
The applicant is proposing to relocate the existing irrigation lateral and construct a five-foot (5')
wide sidewalk located adjacent to West Floating Feather Road. The preliminary plat, date stamped
by the City on March 3, 2016, identifies the location of the relocated irrigation lateral and the
proposed sidewalk, however, the applicant has not provided construction drawings for the
aforementioned items. The applicant should be required to provide construction drawings for the
relocation of the existing irrigation lateral and design of the sidewalk. Approval to construct the
sidewalk should not be granted until the City Engineer review and approval of the construction
drawings has occurred.
The applicant submitted a pressurized irrigation waiver request, date stamped by the City on
March 16, 2016, which indicates that the site has been historically flood irrigated and farmed for
30 -years. There is an existing concrete ditch that runs along the frontage of the property adjacent
to West FIoating Feather Road. Due to ACHD requiring additional right-of-way for West Floating
Feather Road the existing concrete ditch will be relocated. Irrigation water is currently provided on
a rotation basis and installation of a pressure irrigation system on a rotation schedule is
problematic and would require some type of reservoir. The waiver request further states that if
flood irrigation was allowed, the property would have no change in how it is currently being
irrigated to date. Staff recommends that the pressurized irrigation waiver request be granted. The
applicant should provide construction drawings showing infrastructure to provide flood irrigation
to the two (2) lots. The applicant should also provide documentation showing the transfer of the
appropriate irrigation water shares to each lot prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
1. The Council reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed rezone upon annexation
(A-01-16/RZ-0I-16) with regard to Eagle City Code Section 8-7-5 "Action by the Commission and
Council", and based upon the information provided concludes that the proposed rezone upon
annexation is in accordance with the City of Eagle Comprehensive Plan and established goals and
objectives because:
a. The requested zoning designation of R -E -DA (Residential -Estates with a development agreement)
is consistent with the Residential One designation as shown on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Page 20 of 22
K:ll' IAWAg MplTagk Appal:aturontiL54.iHti�?4bI�a11:Gu r. mean Sdh utEdm
Map since the requested zoning designation of R -E (Residential -Estates) allows for less density
than what is typically allowable within the Residential One classification;
b. The subdivision will be served adequately by essential public facilities such as streets, police and
fire protection, schools, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water served by individual wells, and
sewer by the utilization of septic systems; or that the persons or agencies responsible for the
establishment of the proposed use shall be able to provide adequately any such services, as noted
in the documentation provided from said agencies and as required as a part of the conditions of
approval;
c. The proposed R -E -DA (Residential -Estates with a development agreement) zoning district is
compatible with the R -E (Residential -Estates) zone and land use to the north since that area is
developed with a residential subdivision (Cavallo Subdivision) which has the same density as the
proposed subdivision;
d. The proposed R -E -DA (Residential -Estates with a development agreement) zoning district is
compatible with the PS (Public/Semipublic) zone and land use to the south since that area contains
Eagle High School;
e. The proposed R -E -DA (Residential -Estates with a development agreement) zoning district is
compatible with the A -R -DA (Agricultural -Residential with a development agreement) zone and
land use to the east since that area contains a church;
f. The R -E -DA (Residential -Estates with a development agreement) zoning district is compatible
with the RUT (Rural -Urban Transition — Ada County designation) zone and land use to the west
since that area contains a single-family dwelling and may be developed with a subdivision with a
density of up one (1) unittacre;
g. The land proposed for rezone is not located within a "Hazard Area" and "Special Area" as
