modification to the preliminary plat for Henry's Fork Subdivision, a 126-lot(112-buildable, 14-common)
residential development. The applicant is requesting to remove site specific condition of approval #25
which currently requires the use of open fencing throughout the development. The applicant is also
requesting to delete the requirement to provide a stub street(De Soto Ave.)and bridge across the Dry
Creek Canal for access to the property to the north of the development. The 95.32—acre site is located
between Meridian Road and Park Lane approximately 1,300 feet north of Floating Feather Road.
Vice-Chairman Tanner introduces the item.

reviews the history of this development. He states the modifications that his client is requesting
regarding site specific condition of approval #25, as well s the removal of the stub street (De Soto Ave)
and bridge across Dry Creek Canal. Discussion.

Vice Chairman Tanner opens the public hearing.
Rhea Wood, 3457 W. Haley Dr. Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Wood is new to Eagle, and lives in Henry's North
Fork. He has reviewed the Comprehensive Plan and it is well thought out. He is in favor of wrought iron
fencing rather than the vinyl fencing.
Austin Heinrich 2166 N, Corsey Lane Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Heinrick lives in Henry's North Fork. He likes

K:\P&Z\MINUTES1Temporary Minutes Work Area\PZ-06-17-13.doc
the open field feel of split rail fencing; he and his wife are opposed to the 6' privacy vinyl fencing that is
proposed. The developer was aware of the condition when he made the offer to purchase the
development from the original developer. . Mr. Heinrick is opposed to the vinyl fencing.
Chris Palmer 2325 N. Corsey Way Eagle, Idaho. If the 3 rail vinyl fencing is allowed on the outer
perimeter it would give a homogenous look, it would match not only Cavallo Subdivision and Henry's
fencing. He understands wanting privacy fencing on the interior lots, but he does not want the adjacent
lots to not only have the 3 rail fencing, but then also have the 6' solid vinyl fencing as well—he does not
want double fencing in the back yards. Mr. Palmer asks for clarification on notification requirements, as
well as for the history of land owner. Discussion.
Colleen Riggs 2101 N. Corsey Way Eagle, Idaho. She lives in Henry's North Fork. She and her husband
are opposed to the 6' vinyl fencing. The developer knew what the condition was when they purchased
the development.
Jason Ellison 664 W. Tabasco Trail Eagle, Idaho. They would like sewer and water hook ups to be
available should they want to develop their property at a later date. It is important to maintain the
contiguous feel and keep the wrought iron fencing. The 6' vinyl fencing would detract from the open
feel that is there now. Discussion regarding road location and Ada County Highway District
requirements for connectivity. Mr. Ellison is in support of proposed road and as it would improve traffic
flow and connectivity.
Austin Heinrich states that they are opposed to the street extension that Ada County Highway District.
Matt Schultz rebuts testimony. He discusses the amenities within the subdivision as well as the lot size,
while not 2 acre lots, they are large lots. Discussion regarding fencing, ditch fencing and the
requirements/restrictions imposed by the Dry Creek Ditch Company and street connectivity. Discussion
between Commission and Mr. Schultz.
Vice Chairman Tanner closes the public hearing.
Discussion amongst the Commission. Commissioner Roehling is against the requested fencing changes,
agrees with the removal of De Soto road, and also agrees with the use of the bridge for emergency access.
Commissioners Smith and Villegas concur. Commissioner Tanner has some concerns with the removal
of De Soto. Discussion.
Smith moves to recommend for approval PP-11-05 MOD Henry's Fork (AKA Shaunnesy/Park
Place Gardens) Subdivision Modification — Henry's Fork LLC. with the following modifications.
Item #2 under Site Specific condition#2 on page 2 of 16, be modified to comply with all site specific
conditions of approval for PP-11-05. To address the fencing element, that basically eliminates all
of that discussion. We don't talk about condition of approval 25 because it remains in fact.
[Roehling, Commissioner Smith, that is correct.] Seconded by Roehling. Discussion. ALL
