When a property is being proposed for rezone to the R zoning district, Page 5 of 19 \\eaglefs2.cityofeagle.org\Common\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2023\Oakwood Meadows Sub PPFP RZ\Working Files\Oakwood Meadows pzf.dos a development agreement may be utilized in lieu of a PUD and/or conditional use process if approved by the city council, provided the development agreement includes conditions of development that are required during the PUD and conditional use process. C. SUBDIVISION CODE PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL: • Eagle City Code Section 9-2-3 (B)(1-5): Combining Preliminary and Final Plat in Minor Subdivisions:The applicant may request that the subdivision application be processed as both a preliminary and final plat if all the following exist: 1. The proposed subdivision does not exceed ten(10) lots; 2. No new street dedication or street widening is involved; 3. No major special development considerations are involved such as development in a floodplain,hillside development or the like; 4. All required information for both preliminary and final plat is complete and in an acceptable form; and 5. The proposed subdivision is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan or any provision of the Zoning Title of the City. • Eagle City Code Section 9-4-1-9: Water Supply and Sewer Systems: A. Construction; Extension: All public water supply or sewer systems (serving 2 or more separate premises or households) shall be constructed in accordance with any adopted local plans and specifications. All new public water supply or sewer systems shall be an extension of an existing public system whenever possible. In the event that the proposed public water supply or sewer system is not an extension of an existing public system, there shall be a showing by the subdivider that the extension is not feasible and not in the best interest of the public. B. Approval Of Plans: All water and sewer plans shall be submitted to the Idaho department of health and welfare or its authorized agent for approval in accordance with the provisions of section 50-1326,Idaho Code. 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. 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. Page 6 of 19 \\eaglefs2.cityofeagle.org\Common\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2023\Oakwood Meadows Sub PPFP RZ\Working Files\Oakwood Meadows pzf doe 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. b. The pressurized irrigation system shall be designed by a licensed professional engineer registered in the state of Idaho, and the construction plans for the system shall be reviewed and approved by the city engineer. 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. c. Where the applicant has provided for another means of delivery such as flood irrigation, if approved by the city engineer. The applicant shall present the proposed alternative delivery system to the city engineer at the time the waiver is requested. d. That due to the specific circumstances surrounding a new subdivision, the cost of obtaining water rights, reestablishing water rights or developing the system would impose an undue economic hardship on the developer. For purposes of this section, an undue economic hardship shall consist of a showing that the cost per lot to develop the pressurized irrigation system would be twenty five percent (25%)higher than the cost per lot for providing a pressurized irrigation system to subdivisions of similar size and density constructed in the city within the previous two (2) years; or the cost per lot of the pressurized irrigation system would exceed five percent (5%) of the expected per lot market value of the subdivision. Page 7 of 19 \\eaglefs2.cityofeagle.org\Common\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2023\Oakwood Meadows Sub PPFP RZ\Working Files\Oakwood Meadows psf doe The developer shall bear the burden of providing documentation, acceptable to the city engineer and city council, demonstrating and supporting the estimated costs of construction of the pressurized irrigation system, and the cost per lot for irrigation systems in those subdivisions built in the last two (2) years as noted above, and the expected market value of the subdivision lots. For phased developments, costs will be analyzed over all phases of the development rather than the first phase only. 3. Should installation of a pressurized irrigation system be waived by the city engineer, as outlined herein,compliance to Idaho Code 31-3805 is still required. 4. Requests for waivers shall be submitted to the city with the preliminary plat application and shall be accompanied by an irrigation report, prepared by a licensed Idaho registered professional engineer, stating the location and availability of surface irrigation water and documenting the basis for the waiver request. If applicable, the irrigation report shall be accompanied by a letter from the irrigation district or canal company stating that water rights and/or a delivery system are not available to the property. D. DISCUSSION (based on the revised preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on January 11, 2024, and the revised final plat, date stamped by the City on January 11, 2024): • Staff has reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed combined preliminary and final plat and, in terms of Eagle City Code Section 9-2-3(B) "1 thru 5"(minimum criteria to combine a preliminary and final plat),has made the following conclusions: The proposed combined preliminary and final plat: 1. Does not exceed ten(10)lots; 2. Does not involve new street dedication or street widening; 3. Does not involve major special development considerations such as development in a floodplain,hillside development,or the like. 4. All required information for both preliminary and final plat is complete and in an acceptable form;and 5. The proposed subdivision is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan or any provision of the Zoning Title of the City. • The overall site development must comply with the requirements of Eagle City Code and the conditions of approval for a Design Review application. • The preliminary and final plat notes do not identify the lots and blocks which contain the ACHD storm water drainage system. The applicant should be required to provide revised preliminary and final plats with a new plat note stating, "A portion of Lot , Block , is servient to and contains the ACHD storm water drainage system. The lots are encumbered by the certain first amended master perpetual storm water drainage easement recorded on November 15, 2015, as instrument no. 2015-013256 official records of Ada County, and incorporated herein by this reference as if set forth in full (the "Master Easement").

The overhead power located internal to the site should be removed prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat. • The proposed development relies on the previously constructed Creighton Woods pressure irrigation(PI)station to provide PI. During the construction of Creighton Woods Subdivision, a pressurized irrigation stub was provided to the subject property. To connect to the Creighton Woods PI system, the applicant will need to negotiate a user agreement with Creighton Woods HOA. The applicant should provide a copy of the executed pressurized irrigation agreement between Oakwood Meadows Subdivision and Creighton Woods Subdivision Homeowner's Association prior to the issuance of a notice to proceed with construction (NTP) letter by the City -OR- construct a stand-alone pressurized irrigation system in accordance with Eagle City Code Section 9-4-1-9 (C) prior to the City Clerk signing the final plat. If a stand-alone system used solely for Oakwood Meadows is utilized, the design of the system should be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer prior to the issuance of a NTP letter by the City. • The applicant has proposed a common lot located along the rear of the proposed residential lots. As proposed, there is no access to provide maintenance to the common lot and access would have to be taken through one of the residential lots. The applicant should provide revised preliminary and final plats with either(1) a common lot or (2) a maintenance access easement at least 15-feet wide along the western perimeter of Lot 1, Block 1 to provide access to the common lot for landscape maintenance. The revised preliminary and final plats should be provided prior to the submittal of a design review application. • The preliminary plat shows an existing house and existing buildings to be removed.
