C. Pressurized Irrigation Facilities:
1. All residential dwelling units and subdivision common areas shall be provided with a
pressurized irrigation system to be served with irrigation water from a surface water right
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.
Page 10 of 23
KAPlanning Dept\Eagle ApplicationsTreliminary Development Plans\2022\Shedand Point SubdivisionTindingAShedand Point Sub pd.doc
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
individual lot owners shall be prohibited with the exception of the common area lots
owned and maintained by the homeowners' association.
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.
D. DISCUSSION(based on the preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on February], 2023):
• The site contains several mature trees located in proximity to the northeast corner of the site.
Based on the location of the mature trees, the applicant should be required to provide a detailed
arborist report and a tree inventory map identifying all existing trees located on site. The report
should identify, at a minimum, species, size, and health of the trees. The arborist report and map
should be provided with the submittal of a design review application. Also, the applicant should
provide a narrative indicating how the trees will be incorporated into the design of the subdivision
or mitigated prior to removal of the trees (if removal is approved by the City). No trees should be
removed from the site prior to city approval of a tree removal and replacement plan.
• The preliminary plat shows a shop located south of the existing house.The preliminary plat labels
the shop is to be removed. The shop (as identified on the preliminary plat) located on the site
should be removed prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat.
• The site contains an overhead power line which serves the existing house located in proximity to
the northeast corner of the property. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-4-1-8, utilities are
required to be located underground. The applicant should be required to remove the overhead
power located at the northeast corner of the property prior the City Clerk signing the first fmal
Page 11 of 23
KAPlanning Dept\Eagle ApplicationsTreliminary Development Plans\2022\Shetland Point Subdivision\Findings�Shetland Point Sub pA..doc
plat.
• As proposed, the subdivision contains 5.10-acres. The applicant provided a revised "Pressure
Irrigation Assessment Report," date stamped by the City on February 6, 2023, and a revised
narrative, date stamped by the City on February 8, 2023, which indicates the applicant only has
water rights associated with two (2) acres of the proposed development. At the time of purchase
of the western 3.10-acres, the seller refused to transfer the water shares associated with property.
The project engineer has modeled a system utilizing the existing water rights to supply the eleven
(11) buildable lots. Although they are proposing a rotating schedule for pressure irrigation, the
applicant is requesting a waiver of the pressure irrigation requirement for the common lots within
the subdivision. It is the applicant's desire to utilize the Veolia Water System to irrigate the
common area. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-4-1-9(C)(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. 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. 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. There was a water right
associated with the property; however, the seller did not transfer the associated water right based
on the area being purchased to increase the availability of water to the property the seller retained.
Staff will defer to the Council regarding granting a partial waiver of the required pressurized
irrigation system.
PUBLIC HEARING OF THE COMMISSION:
A. A public hearing on the applications was held before the Planning and Zoning Commission on
February 21, 2023, at which time public testimony was taken and the public hearing was closed. The
Commission made their recommendation at that time.
B. Oral testimony in favor of the applications was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by
no one(not including the applicant/representative).
C. Oral testimony in opposition to the applications was presented to the Planning and Zoning
Commission by two(2)individuals who indicated concerns with the following:
• As proposed,the subdivision does not provide a transition to the adjacent properties.
• The proposed density is too high and is not compatible with the adjacent subdivisions.
• The density should not exceed one unit/acre.
• The drainage ditch located along the southern boundary should remain uncovered.
• How will the drainage ditch be maintained after it has been piped.
• The subdivision does not contain any retention ponds for irrigation water.

KAPlanning Dept\Eagle ApplicationsTreliminary Development Plaos\2022\Shetland Point SubdivisionTindingAShedand Point Sub pzf.doc
COMMISSION DELIBERATION:
Upon closing the public hearing,the Commission discussed during deliberation that:
• Although the adjacent properties are larger in size the area located in proximity to the site is
developed with similar density;therefore, the subdivision is harmonious with the greater area.
• The applicant reconfigured the subdivision based on neighborhood input.
• The irrigation company desires the ditch to be tiled.
• The waiver request to allow the common areas to be irrigated from a potable water source should be
approved.
