THE CITY COUNCIL RECEIVED AND REVIEWED THE FOLLOWING STAFF ANALYSIS
PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT:
A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING
THIS PROPOSAL:
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (adopted November 15, 2017), designates this site as the
following:
Foothills Residential
A unique combination of land uses within the Eagle Foothills that strives to balance residential,non-
residential,and open space(developed and natural)use to create unique hamlets of development that
place urban development within the natural environment without overcrowding or significantly
altering the natural features found on the site. The density for unconstrained lands in the foothills
should be approximately 1 unit per tow acres. Residential densities should be calculated to be
Page 4 of 11
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr\2021\Spring Valley Booster Pump No.I DR-64-21\Spring Valley Booster Pump No l ccf docx
commensurate with the existing land conditions. Priorities for open space areas should be granted for
areas located within the floodway, slopes more than 25%, or sensitive/critical habitat. These areas
should be sued as open space. Units should be arranged in accordance with the transect plan as
described in the Foothills planning area.
B. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN
REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL:
1. MASTER PLANS; PLANNING UNIT PLANS.
1.1 Conditions of Development. Developer shall develop the Property subject to the conditions
and limitations set forth in this Agreement. Further,Developer shall submit such
applications regarding design review,preliminary and final plat reviews, condominium plat
reviews,PUD and/or any conditional use permits,as and if applicable, and any other
applicable applications as may be required by the Zoning Ordinance,except as otherwise
provided within this Agreement.
C. ZONING CODE PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS
PROPOSAL:
• Eagle City Code Section 11A-3-1: GENERAL APPLICABILITY:
This title applies to all proposed development located within Spring Valley and requires the
submittal of a design review application pursuant to this title and fee as prescribed from time to
time by the city council.
The following are specifically excluded from the requirements of design review: development of
an individual single-family detached dwelling on a single parcel, an individual duplex(2 dwelling
units),and an individual townhome consisting of a maximum of two(2)dwelling units.
• Eagle City Code Section 11A-3-7 LANDSCAPE AND BUFFER AREA REQUIREMENTS:
A. Overview And Intent: The existing(nondeveloped)landscape character of Spring Valley, and
much of the North Eagle Foothills, is predominantly nonnative grasslands with some shrubs
and agriculture and is quite different from the rest of Eagle and the Boise River corridor which
contain dense plantings and large buffer areas along arterials and collector roadways, irrigated
pastures, and riparian woodlands. The intent of these standards is to provide a landscape
character that is appropriate to the foothills and balances aesthetics and livability with water
demands and availability. These standards promote water conservation through the use of
treated effluent for irrigation,efficient irrigation systems,and the use of native and other plants
that require little or no irrigation to survive. In addition, these guidelines shall be used in
conjunction with the grading guidelines and hillside development standards,habitat mitigation
plan and wildfire management plan.
The landscape concept for Spring Valley can be best described as a"foothills landscape". This
concept is based on the landscape of the Northern Rocky Mountain Foothills and high plains
prairie. Foothills landscape will be characterized by diverse layers of both deciduous and
evergreen shrubs and trees that will create interest through its broad palette of indigenous
material and other plants,including turf,utilized throughout the region.This concept also takes
advantage of soil and exposure conditions to develop potential vineyard groves throughout the
community with the rolling foothills as the backdrop.
D. DISCUSSION:
• The applicant is requesting design review approval to construct a 680-square foot booster pump
facility for Spring Valley PUMP No. 1. The applicant indicates the architectural theme of this
building is mountain craftsman. The material palette consists of wood-like vertical siding with a
Page 5 of 11
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr\2021\Spring Valley Booster Pump No.1 DR-64-21\Spring Valley Booster Pump No.1 ccf docx
charcoal colored metal roof. The application is for the review of the building structure only. The
landscaping, fencing, parking, etc. shall be reviewed under a separate design review application.
Staff defers comment regarding the building design, materials, and colors to the Design Review
Board.
The proposed building should be designed to be harmonious with buildings in the surrounding
vicinity. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-13(B)(2)(d&e),the proposed building
should be designed to not interfere with the visual character,quality or appearance of the
surrounding area and City,and where possible,enhance the continuity of thematically common
architectural features, and will have facades,features,and other physical improvements that are
designed as a whole,when viewed alone as well as in relationship to surrounding buildings and
settings. Staff defers comment of the proposed buildings regarding the harmonious nature and
relationship of the building to the surrounding vicinity to the Design Review Board.
