water shares. She is requesting to not provide pressurized irrigation and attached sidewalks.
City Planner, Mike Williams, gives an overview the application and goes over all of the site

recommend approval of that waiver because it does not comply with Title 9.
Chairman Wright opens the Public Hearing.
Chad Kinkela, 1300 E. State Street, is with CK Engineering and is representing the applicant. He
was unaware of the availability of water shares, which is why he was requesting a waiver of the
pressurized irrigation.
Steven Ricks, 3085 Terra Drive, Boise, Idaho, is the Treasurer of the Ballantyne Irrigation Ditch
Company. Their concern is the necessity of ensuring that the water flows and the ditch is tiled
covered. He requests that as a condition of approval, the Commission require a tiled cover.
Joe King, 170 N. Sierra View Way, is the Secretary of Treasurer for the Ballantyne Irrigation
Ditch Company. As it pertains to the availability of water, there is potentially enough water
shares but cannot speak for the shareholder who owns them.
