Relocate the Evans Water Corporation water line blowout currently located at the East end of Sadie Drive. 17. As an offsite improvement, install a 5' wide attached sidewalk along the South side of Sadie Drive for the entire length of Sadie Drive. This sidewalk shall be installed within the existing 50' ACHD right-of-way. The applicant shall provide a written statement of approval from ACHD for this off- site improvement. A portion of this sidewalk could be built out onto, and thus subtracting from, the current roadway, providing that the finished roadway is not reduced to less than 33' as measured from back of curb to back of curb (but not including future attached sidewalk). 18. In addition to the offside improvement of condition 17, the applicant shall stripe 5' of roadway along the East side of Dickey Road as a pedestrian walkway, and install "No Parking" signs along the East side of Dickey Road. This striped pathway shall extend from the intersection of Dickey Drive and Sadie Drive to the intersection of Dickey Drive and Hill Road. 19. Conditions 17 and 18 must be completed prior to the City issuing a building permit for any homes within Arbor Ridge Subdivision. 20. Building envelopes shall be shown on the plat map for Block 1, Lots 11 through 18. Deep bore testing such as that recommended in the City Engineer's August 9, 2000 letter shall be submitted indicating that these envelopes are suitable for building. 21. As per Site Specific Condition number 3 of the ACHD staff report, construction traffic shall not be permitted to access the site using existing Sadie Drive. Construction traffic shall use the future Arbor Ridge Way. The developer shall enter into a development agreement with the City restricting access to Dickey Drive and Sadie Drive for all construction and building contractor traffic. Provide a note in the subdivision's CC&R's restricting construction and contractor traffic to the access off of Hill Road. Install temporary signage at the entrance to Dickey Drive indicating that construction and contractor traffic is prohibited on Dickey Drive and Sadie Drive, and directing this traffic to use the proper access off of Hill Road. Make the following corrections to the Site Specific Conditions of Approval, Pages 11-13 of 17. 4. Provide a revised preliminary plat ... Lots 7 and 31, Block 5, and Lots 10 and 2 (insert correct lot number), Block 6. 5. All street sidewalks shall be separated from the curb an ata minimum of 8 -feet to allow... Pay close attention to the following: Tabled site data on Page 4 of 17-- Must meet minimum lot size, minimum street frontage and minimum common space acreage. These are addressed by staff recommended site specific conditions 4, 9, and 10. On Page 13 of the traffic analysis, it is stated that a left -turn lane is warranted at Hill Road. I do not believe this is addressed in either the City staff recommendations nor the ACHD conditions of approval. This should be addressed prior to platting the 23rd residential lot (as part of Site Specific Condition 6 of the ACHD staff report). Steve Deckers Outline of concerns: Arbor Ridge Subdivision Eagle, Idaho 10/13/00 A: Stub Streets to adjoining properties. 1. The developer's main bone of contention has been and continues to be financial. Alternative plans have been offered that simply allow the developer to forgo the expense of stub streets at the expense of the surrounding community. The offerings to date include: A. Forcing any and all traffic north to Floating Feather through Eagle Point Sub, Echohawk Sub (to which the developer has stated that this subdivision is already at max traffic) and Berkshire. This places the sum total of all traffic entering Floating Feather at or about the confluence of Seven Oaks Rd, the main entrance of a year round elementary school. This also means that if the Glubay's wish to develop without the cooperation of the Pardew's, his land is effectively landlocked. If the Pardew's and the Glubay's develop, it would require that a bridge be built crossing the canal and then dedicated and maintained at taxpayer expense. Cost to taxpayers would be considerably more than maintaining Stub streets. B. Requiring adjacent property owners to pay for all land and costs associated with installing Stub streets. This is clearly an attempt to vacate a developer's responsibilities in order to maximize profits. 2. If traffic count as stated by the developer for the potential Glubay/Pardew development is to excessive to be handled by routing through Arbor Ridge, perhaps reducing density for Arbor Ridge should be proposed in order to reduce traffic numbers at the time of full development of the area. Perhaps furthering the "asset to the community" attitude, the developer may wish to confer with adjacent property owners in order to establish a more fluent preliminary plan that will benefit this community for years to come. 3. Interconnectivity is a desired effect that would be compromised with the lack of sufficient stub streets. Law enforcement, Fire crews and paramedics, Postal workers, waste removal personnel and others would have to circumference an entire section in order to perform their respective tasks. In fact, Mr. Butler has stated both publicly and privately that he is a big proponent of interconnectivity and used this same argument to include a connection to Sadie Dr. in order to assist the developer. Perhaps this 0*Z 16. 0 1 argument is only used when it benefits the developer. ACRD has deemed it absolutely necessary to include stub streets with interconnectivity as a portion of their reasoning. B. Boundaries 1. There appears to be discrepancies by virtue of recorded deeds in the Northwest corner of Arbor Ridge that have not, as of this date, been addressed by the applicant on the preliminary plat, even though they have had this information for some time. C: Open Space 1. There appears to be less than the required percentage of open space on the preliminary plat. D. Fencing Types and Materials 1. Standard cedar fencing has not proven out to be a good long-term solution. Pets continually chew, break, and otherwise damage the slats. We would like to see a vinyl or comparable fence following the highest contours in order to minimize future conflicts. E. CC&R's 1. Addressing the concerns of existing aesthetics for properties north and west, we would like to see homes constructed on these fence lines no more than single story in construction. This would provide for the least amount of view obstruction possible. F. Reclamation 1. Of extreme concern, especially in light of a recent homeowners association battle with a developer that has failed to comply with the original conditions of approval for subdividing (re: Sommerset Ridge II) is this developer's financial ability, desire, and motivation to complete the reclamation of the final phase of this development, namely the "gravel pit". After developing the "easy" portions, what is to prevent the developer from walking away from the final, more costly phase, leaving this community to bear the brunt of a major expense in order to complete this project? As the City Engineer stated in his report of August 2000, this reclamation would be considerably more intensive than usual because of all the factor such as 2 housing, sewer lines, water lines, roadways, etc. We might suggest that the reclamation project be completed first, prior to completing the more profitable sections of this subdivision. Or in lieu thereof, a significant fund established exceeding the amount estimated to complete this phase to be returned to the developer on completion. G. Contour 1. Contour lines do not appear to match actual physical differences as measured 9/00 by C. Bryant Peck and William W. Pardew using laser leveling techniques. We request that actual contour differences be developed to include surrounding properties in order to address accurate drainage and landscaping issues. SUMMATION Business ventures have inherent costs and risks. For most types of ventures, rules and restrictions are in place, due mostly to past mistakes and continuing education. Any business that attempts to sidestep these rules and regulations in order to maximize profits, generally leave messes for someone else to cleanup. Sometimes attempting to fix problems left behind are so costly to correct that a community simply is forced to live with the aftermath. We believe that this developer should be made to comply fully with all rules and regulations and monitored closely so as to avoid future problems. If this creates too narrow a margin for a sufficiently profitable development, we do not advocate the public having to subsidize this venture. Signed: (///7 Ann M. Pardew-Peck and C. Bryant Peck 2425 E. Floating Feather Rd. Eagle, Idaho 83616 3 P4'1'0 tb,1G-o 2385 East Floating Feather Road P. O. Box 699 Eagle, Idaho 83616-0699 October 16, 2000 City of Eagle, Idaho Planning and Zoning Commissioners Eagle, Idaho 83616 Dear Commissioners: We have several concerns regarding the preliminary plat application for Arbor Ridge Subdivision in Eagle, Idaho. The July 13, 2000, preliminary plat shows no stub street to the adjoining undeveloped property north of Arbor Ridge Subdivision. This 5.75 acres of our property is landlocked on the north side by Farmers Union Ditch canal. This parcel presently has access to Floating Feather Road over a private narrow wooden bridge and private lane which do not meet ACHD road and bridge design standards, and it has no access to existing stub streets. Large subdivision developers can provide a great service to the community by providing stub streets to future subdivisions. Future service consists of allowing adjacent subdivisions to have access to each others roadway facilities for ease of movement and circulation between subdivisions. This includes vehicular and pedestrian traffic. This will reduce traffic on arterial roadways which results in less traffic volume and less damage to pavement roadway structure costing taxpayers less money to repair. Children within subdivisions have greater ease in getting on and off school buses where they are safer than on arterial roads where there is greater exposure to accidents. It is important for the different public services—ambulance, police and fire department vehicles to drive with ease from one subdivision to another using the shortest route to respond to a crisis situation. From the October 4, 2000, ACHD final staff report on the Arbor Ridge preliminary plat under Facts and Findings, section K., Northern Parcel, states "it would be costly to construct a bridge to ACHD standards, and expensive for ACHD to maintain." In the "Site Specific Requirements" for ACRD approval of the Arbor Ridge Subdivision final plat, the October 4, 2000, Ada County Highway District final staff report requirement number 8 states "Construct and extend a stub street to the north property line, at a location to be determined by District staff and the applicant. ..." In the Eagle City Planning & Zoning Arbor Ridge staff report, page 13, item number one under "standard conditions of approval" states "The applicant shall comply with all requirements of the Ada County Highway District and/or the Idaho Transportation Department, including but not limited to approval of the drainage system, curbs, gutters, streets and sidewalks." Arbor Ridge Subdivision preliminary plat dated July 13, 2000, is not in compliance with Eagle City Code Title 9 "Land Subdivisions". Chapter 3, Design Standards 9-3-2-1: Location: Street and road location shall conform to the following standards: C. Stub Streets: "Where adjoining areas are not subdivided, the arrangement of streets in new subdivisions shall be such that said streets extend to the boundary line of the tract to make provisions for the future extension of said street into adjacent areas, and shall have a cul-de-sac or temporary cul-de-sac. A reserve street may be required and held in public ownership." We are requesting that you require Arbor Ridge Subdivision to comply with this Eagle City Code. Another area of concern is that Arbor Ridge Lot 33 on the July 13, 2000, preliminary plat may be encroaching on our private lane depending on how far north their lot line will be located. The developer needs to address this problem. We are concerned regarding the difference in elevation between the Pardew property and Arbor Ridge Subdivision at the east half of our southern boundary. The Arbor Ridge property is approximately six feet lower than the Pardew property. We need to know what is planned for fill, berm and fencing in this area. So as not to obstruct the view to the south. we are requesting only single level houses be built adjacent to our property. For the record, at the September 11, 2000, Eagle Sewer District meeting, Lynn Moser, General Manager, stated that Arbor Ridge Subdivision would be annexed into the Eagle Sewer District. and when the undeveloped property north of Arbor Ridge is developed, it will be provided with Eagle Sewer District sewer service. Very truly yours, Aik„,21 William W. Pardew, P.E./L.S., Retired (-7t.te-e_e,,,4 Helen S.
