RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 18 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: 8.2.3 Land Use Map Designations: Estate Rural Residential Suitable primarily for single family residential use. Densities in this land use area are a maximum of 2 dwelling units per acre. Densities not exceeding 1 to 2 units per acre are to be encouraged in areas of the floodplain, ridgeline developable areas, hillside developable areas, and where new residential lots are proposed immediately adjacent to existing residential lots of greater than one acre where those existing larger lots are not likely to be subdivided in the future. Clustering is allowed to preserve open space. 8.3 Goal: Encourage the development of a diverse community that provides a mix of land uses, housing types, and a variety of employment options, social and recreational opportunities, and where possible, an assortment of amenities within walking distance of residential development. 8.4 Objectives: A. Preserve the family friendly feel of Star. B. Implement the Land Use Map and associated policies as the official guide for development. C. Manage urban sprawl in order to minimize costs of urban services and to protect rural areas. D. Retain and encourage rural areas where it will not result in increased costs for urban services. E. Encourage public participation in the land use planning process. F. Encourage land uses that are in harmony with existing resources, scenic areas, natural wildlife areas, and surrounding land uses. G. Require the conservation and preservation of open spaces and public access to the Boise River and BLM lands and interconnected pathways to be open to the public in new developments. ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 19 H. Discourage development within the floodplain. 8.5.3 Policies Related Mostly to the Urban Residential Planning Areas: A. The Estate and Neighborhood Residential Land Use is to encourage urban style development densities to limit urban sprawl. B. Low densities within the Estate and Neighborhood Residential Land Use are to be designed within the floodplain, ridgeline developable areas, hillside developable areas and where new residential lots are proposed adjacent to existing residential lots of one acre and larger where those existing larger lots are not likely to be subdivided in the future. C. Site layout adjacent to and within the Special Transition Overlay Area shall provide for a transition in density and lot sizing. D. High Density residential uses should be located in close proximity to commercial centers located near highway corridors and on upper floors within the Central Business District land use area. High Density residential uses otherwise should not be dispersed throughout the community and should not be located along the Boise River. E. High Density residential may be limited to ensure compatibility and transition between uses adjacent to the site. F. High Density residential design specifications may include increased setbacks for multi‐story buildings and increased landscape buffers. 8.5.9 Additional Land Use Component Policies: • Encourage flexibility in site design and innovative land uses. • Encourage landscaping to enhance the appearance of subdivisions, structures, and parking areas. • Require more open space and trees in subdivisions. • Work with Ada County Highway District (ACHD), Canyon Highway District #4 (CHD4), and Idaho Department of Transportation (ITD) for better coordination of roadway and access needs. • Support well-planned, pedestrian-friendly developments. • Dark sky provision should be adopted within the code to assure down style lighting in all developments and Star should consider joining the International Dark Sky Association. • The City should utilize the 2018 Treasure Valley Tree Selection Guide when requiring trees within developments. 18.3 Goal The Star Comprehensive Plan and related ordinances are to be working documents used by citizens and city leaders to share the future of Star. ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 20 18.4 Implementation Policies: I. Update the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances to be in conformance with the adopted Comprehensive Plan. J. Community involvement is very important and the public should be aware and involved in the city’s planning decisions. K. The City Council is responsible to review the status of the implementation actions and critique the relevance of the Comprehensive Plan, including proposing any amendments on an as needed basis. L. Clustering is useful when trying to protect sensitive natural resources, avoid hazardous areas or preserve natural sites. Clustering involves assessing the natural characteristics of a site and grouping the buildings or lots through the on-site transfer of density rather than distributing them evenly throughout the project as in a conventional subdivision. M. Development Agreements allow the city to enter into a contract with a developer upon rezoning. The Development Agreement may provide the city and the developer with certain assurances regarding the proposed development upon rezoning. N. Require any person applying for a Comprehensive Plan amendment to submit a justification letter for the amendment which is to include: a. A specific description of the change being requested. b. Specific information on any property(s) involved. c. A description of the condition or situation which warrants a change being made in the plan. d. A description of the public benefit(s) that would occur from such a change in the plan and an explanation of why the public would need any such benefit(s). e. An explanation of why no other solutions to the condition or situation, which warrants a change in the plan, are possible or reasonable under the current policies of the plan. f. A detailed list of all applicable comprehensive plan goals, policies, and objectives that the proposed change would help implement or policies that must also be amended as part of the proposed change. ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 21 g. A proposed development plan for any land involved if a specific development is planned at the time the request for the amendment is being made. h. An analysis showing the estimated impact that the proposed change is expected to have on existing and planned infrastructure. i. If the amendment will impact more individuals than the applicant submitting the application a detailed description of the efforts made to inform other parties potentially impacted by the change of the application is to be provided. j. Any other data and information required by the city for their evaluation of the request. PROJECT OVERVIEW COMPREHENSIVE PLAN & DEVELOPMENT CODE COMPLIANCE REZONE/COMPREHENSIVE PLAN MAP AMMENDMENT: The Rezone request of the 10.49 acres from Residential (R-1) to Residential (R-2) on the applicant’s property will allow for the development to accommodate the proposed 14 single family residential lots in a manner that will be consistent with the intent of the current Comprehensive Plan Map. The current Future Land Use Map designates the property as Low Density Residential with a maximum of 1 dwelling per acre. The proposed development has a density of 1.33 dwelling units per acre. The proposed Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map Amendment will re-designate the subject property as Estate Rural Residential – Maximum of 2 units per acre. This is necessary in order for the property to be rezoned to R-2. When the original property was annexed in February of 2022, Council placed a condition of approval for the western portion of the property (property that is part of this application) in the development agreement which stated: • Future residential lots shall be limited to a minimum of 1-acre unless approved by Council and the Magnolia Subdivision HOA When the City adopted its amended Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map in June of 2022, the City re-designated the property to Low Density Residential – Maximum of 1-unit per acre, in order to align the property with the newly adopted Comp Plan Map. The applicant has indicated that the Magnolia Subdivision HOA has agreed to support the reduction in lots sizes, the increase in density and the Rezone and Comprehensive Plan ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 22 amendment to allow the applicant to develop the western portion of the property as submitted. Staff is requiring the applicant to provide City Council written or verbal proof from the Magnolia Subdivision HOA at the public hearing that they are supportive of this development. PRELIMINARY PLAT/PRIVATE ROAD: The applicant is requesting approval of the Preliminary Plat for Longbow Subdivision on 10.49 acres. The plat submitted includes a total of 21 lots, including 14 single family detached residential lots, 5 common/open space lots, 1 Private Road lot and an additional common lot (Lot 15) that is described by the applicant as being a “30-year deed restricted lot”. It is staff’s understanding that Lot 15 will be retained and owned/maintained by the seller/current owner of the property (Kinney). This lot will not be part of the Rezone and Comprehensive Plan Amendment, and will stay as an R-1 zone and Low-Density Comp Plan Map designation. Staff recommends that the deed restriction of the Lot 15 be noted on both the final plat and within the Development Agreement Modification. Sewer and Water will be provided by the Star Sewer and Water District and is in close proximity to the property. Annexation into the Sewer and Water District will be required. The building lots range in size from 8,491 square feet to 43,560 square feet with the average buildable lot of 15,987 square feet. The gross density is proposed at 1.33 dwelling units per acre. This calculation does not include the acreage associated with Lot 15 (deed restricted lot). The development will be accessed from a new private road off W. Broken Arrow Street. The applicant is requesting a private gate at the entrance to the subdivision. The Applicant is proposing all internal roads to be a minimum of 36 feet wide from back of curb to back of curb, built within a 50-foot-wide easement. Sidewalks are proposed to be 5 feet wide and attached throughout the development. Staff is recommending that the sidewalks be detached to meet City Code requirements and to be consistent with recently approved subdivisions. The Unified Development Code 8-4D-1 states the following regarding private streets: It is not the intent to approve private streets for single-family, duplex and/or townhouse developments in higher density residential developments (R-2 or higher, M-U) unless they are part of a planned unit development or development agreement, where creative design elements including, but not limited to, mixed uses, common area mews, live/work concepts and/or distinctive open spaces are designed within the development. The applicability may be extended where the administrator finds it necessary to provide private streets, and Star Fire District determines that private streets will maintain or enhance the safety of a development. Although the proposed zoning of this subdivision is R-2, the density proposed is only 1.33 du/acre. Therefore, Staff believes that the request meets the intent of the Code to allow a ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 23 private street. The preliminary plat qualified open space area is 1.05 acres or 10.%. Developments with a density of 2 dwelling units per acre or less may request a 50% reduction in total required open space and amenities to the Council. The proposed amenity is a shade structure with a picnic table. The development also includes a pathway along the southern boundary of the entire subdivision (including Lot 15). The pathway shall be paved its entire length. The preliminary plat total open space equates to 1.35 acres or 12.88%. Staff is supportive of the provided open space in the development. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT FEATURES: • Sidewalks - Internal sidewalks are proposed at five-foot widths and will be attached throughout the subdivision. Sidewalks along W. Broken Arrow Road will be seven-foot-wide and attached. There will be a 20-foot landscape buffer along W. Broken Arrow Street. Sidewalks along Pollard are proposed to be detached, 5 foot wide with a 5-foot landscape strip. UDC requires all sidewalks to be detached with a minimum 8-foot-wide landscape strip. Pollard is a minor arterial and should be a minimum of 7 feet wide. Broken Arrow is a collector and should also be a minimum of 7 feet wide detached with an 8-foot-wide landscape strip. (UDC 8- 4A-18) Landscape buffer along Pollard shall be 30 feet. No size is given on the plans. The applicant will be required to revise the landscape plan. • Lighting - Streetlights shall reflect the “Dark Sky” criteria with all lighting. The same streetlight design shall continue throughout the entire development. The applicant has submitted a streetlight plan and design with the application packet. The proposed design satisfies City code. The Applicant has not provided a lighting plan and fixture cut sheet for approval. This will be required at final plat. • Street Names - Applicant has not provided approval from Ada County that the proposed street names are approved. This will be required at final plat. • Subdivision Name - Applicant has provided approval from Ada County that the proposed subdivision name is approved. • Landscaping - As required by the Unified Development Code, Chapter 8, Section 8- 8C-2-M Street Trees; A minimum of one street tree shall be planted for every thirty-five (35) linear feet of street frontage. The applicant shall use “Treasure Valley Tree Selection Guide”, as adopted by the Unified Development Code. Section 8-8C-2, ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 24 J5 states that a minimum of one deciduous shade tree per four thousand (4,000) square feet of common area shall be provided. The submitted landscape plan appears to satisfy these requirements. If street trees are to be placed by the builder, Certificate of Occupancy may be withheld until trees are verified in place per code. • Setbacks – The applicant is not requesting any waivers and proposing setbacks that are compliant with current Code standards. • Block – All blocks appear to meet the 750’ or less block length requirement and will not require a waiver from the Council. • Mailbox Cluster – Applicant has provided approval from the Star Postmaster to place the clusters outside of the proposed gate while providing a pull out. That approval is part of the application. Mailbox clusters shall be covered and provided with lighting. • Phasing – The Applicant is proposing build out in a single phase. • Mitigation fees – All future building permits shall be subject to emergency service mitigation fees, as determined by Council. • Future Home Elevations/Building Permits – The applicant shall meet all future residential building standards associated with Section 8-3B-3J of the UDC. The applicant has not submitted building elevations for review by Staff and Council. Houses that back up to W. Broken Arrow Road and Pollard will also need to have architectural elements on the rear elevations of the home. Building elevations will be required to be part of the Development Agreement. Staff is requiring the applicant to provide building elevations at the public hearing for the Council to review. • Fencing – Applicant’s proposal says open style fencing along open areas of 4 feet tall. Applicant shall provide a fencing plan for the entire property showing material and whether open or closed style. This will be required at final plat. • Private Road Maintenance Agreement – This will be required at final plat. ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 25 Private Road & Gate – The private road and the proposed gate will require approval by the Star Fire District. Fire District approved access/locks will be required. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT: Through the Development Agreement process, the applicant is proposing to work with the City and neighboring property owners to provide further insurances that the development will be built as presented and/or modified by the Council through the review process. Staff is recommending modifying the existing Development Agreement for the Kinney Annexation to include all additional conditions of approval. Items to be discussed and considered by the applicant and Council at the public hearing include the following: • Magnolia Subdivision HOA approval • Deed Restricted Lot 15 • Residential Building Elevations • Private Street & Gates • Detached Sidewalks • Pathway • Fencing • Street Trees • ITD Proportionate Share Fees • Compliance With Weed Abatement Code • Emergency Mitigation Fees AGENCY/DEPARTMENT RESPONSES DEQ September 8, 2025 Foothill Ditch Company September 3, 2025 ACHD October 2, 2025 Star Fire District October 1, 2025 ITD September 5, 2025 PUBLIC RESPONSES Staff has received one public response to this application that will be provided to Council prior to the public hearing. ---PAGE BREAK--- LONGBOW SUBDIVISION FILE NO. RZ-25-03/DA-21-27MOD/PR-25-03/CPA-25-02/PP-25-03 26 STAFF ANALYSIS & RECOMMENDATIONS With the assumption that the applicant has provided proof from the neighboring HOA supporting the development, and based upon the further information provided to staff in the applications and agency comments received to date, the proposed rezone request and associated applications including the preliminary plat, private road, and comprehensive plan map amendment meets the requirements, standards and intent for development as they relate to the Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Code. The proposed maximum allowed density of 1.33 dwelling units per acre is within the range of Estate Rural Residential Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Staff is supportive of proposed diversity in lot sizes, housing sizes and density that the (R-2) zoning designation will provide. The Council should consider the entire record and testimony presented at their scheduled public hearing prior to rendering its decision on the matter. Should the Council vote to approve the applications, either as presented or with added or revised conditions of approval, Council shall direct staff to draft findings of fact and conclusions of law for the Council to consider at a future date. A development agreement will also be brought back to the Council for review of proposed Conditions of Approval for the rezone and Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Amendment.

The developer, Paul Hilbig, a resident of the City of Star, has asked Orton Engineering, LLC to represent this project. In the pre-development meeting on this project with City Star, it was determined that the property would need to be rezoned from R-1-PUD-DA zone to R-2, the Comprehensive Plan Map Amended and the original Development Agreement for the parcel modified. Complying with agreements with the neighbors and alteration of a previous development agreement relevant to the underlying land have been factors in the approach to development. May 29th, 2025 - Updated 8/14/2025 The parcel of land for the subdivision is 10.49 acres and is identified as Ada County Tax Parcel R5437560215. Josh Kinney is the current owner of this parcel and the property is under contract to Paul Hilbig for purchase. Per an agreement made with the Magnolia subdivision, the largest buildable lot will not be built on for 30 years and will remain in the ownership of Josh Kinney. This parcel is already ---PAGE BREAK--- ‭home to an orchard and will receive the addition of a gravel pathway along the Foothill Drain‬ ‭that will help with regional pathway connectivity.‬ ‭Figure 1 Longbow Subdivision Site and Surroundings‬ ‭The parcel to be developed is also known as: Lot 2 of Block 1 of the Magnolia‬ ‭subdivision. Josh Kinney did a Property Boundary Adjustment/Property Split of Lot 2 into 4‬ ‭parcels (See ROS Instrument No 1406), which created this parcel, also known as “Parcel ‭on the Record of Survey. The Magnolia Subdivision CC&R’s only allow 1 acre lots, however‬ ‭the Seller has agreed to stub sewer and water utilities to the existing 4-home Magnolia‬ ‭subdivision, repave their cul-de-sac and match the 2 lots adjacent to the Magnolia‬ ‭subdivision as 1-acre lots. In return the existing Magnolia Subdivision will release the‬ ‭acreage from the CCR’s and support the development of a total of 14 residential lots.‬ ‭Additionally, the seller has agreed that the ~3 acre area to the south and east Magnolia‬ ‭Subdivision will have a no-build restriction for 30 years.‬ ‭2‬‭I‬‭Page‬ ‭Orton Engineering LLC 17338 Sunnydale Place, Caldwell, ID, 83607 ~ [PHONE REDACTED] [EMAIL REDACTED]‬ ‭Longbow Subdivision‬ ‭Rezone, Preliminary Plat, Comprehensive Plan‬ ‭Amendment, Development Agreement Modification‬ ‭Developer: Paul Hilbig‬ ‭Site Location: SE Corner of Broken Arrow Road/Pollard Lane,‬ ‭Star ID‬ ---PAGE BREAK--- ‭Figure 2: Existing Magnolia Subdivision, Record of Survey Instrument No 1406‬ ‭A portion of the site is in the flood plain, Zone A.

There will be 2 new fire hydrants to assist in any fire emergency. There will be 15 new single-family dwellings which is a minimal number to negatively impact the city infrastructure and utilities. f. The owner of the parcel has worked to be very accommodating to the neighbors surrounding the project, agreeing to extend sewer and water, pave their subdivision street, protect a large residential lot with a 30 year no build agreement to protect the view, agreeing to a larger setback easement adjacent to the existing Magnolia subdivision, and building pathways for walkability.

Nickel Planning Director and Zoning Administrator Star City Hall P.O. Box 130 Star, Idaho 83669 [EMAIL REDACTED] Subject: Agency Transmittal - Longbow Subdivision Dear Mr. Nickel, Thank you for the opportunity to respond to your request for comment. While DEQ does not review every project on a project-specific basis, we attempt to provide the best review of the information provided. DEQ encourages agencies to review and utilize the Idaho Environmental Guide to assist in addressing project-specific conditions that may apply. This guide can be found at: The following information does not cover every aspect of this project; however, we have the following general comments to use as appropriate: 1. AIR QUALITY  Please review IDAPA 58.01.01 for all rules on Air Quality, especially those regarding fugitive dust (58.01.01.651), trade waste burning (58.01.01.600-617), and odor control plans (58.01.01.776). For questions, contact David Luft, Air Quality Manager, at (208) 373-0550.  IDAPA 58.01.01.201 requires an owner or operator of a facility to obtain an air quality permit to construct prior to the commencement of construction or modification of any facility that will be a source of air pollution in quantities above established levels. DEQ asks that cities and counties require a proposed facility to contact DEQ for an applicability determination on their proposal to ensure they remain in compliance with the rules. For questions, contact the DEQ Air Quality Permitting Hotline at 1-[PHONE REDACTED]. ---PAGE BREAK--- September 2025 Page 2 of 4 2. WASTEWATER AND RECYCLED WATER  DEQ recommends verifying that there is adequate sewer to serve this project prior to approval. Please contact the sewer provider for a capacity statement, declining balance report, and willingness to serve this project.  IDAPA 58.01.16 and IDAPA 58.01.17 are the sections of Idaho rules regarding wastewater and recycled water. Please review these rules to determine whether this or future projects will require DEQ approval. IDAPA 58.01.03 is the section of Idaho rules regarding subsurface disposal of wastewater. Please review this rule to determine whether this or future projects will require permitting by the local public health district.  All projects for construction or modification of wastewater systems require preconstruction approval. Recycled water projects and subsurface disposal projects require separate permits as well.  DEQ recommends that projects be served by existing approved wastewater collection systems or a centralized community wastewater system whenever possible. Please contact DEQ to discuss potential for development of a community treatment system along with best management practices for communities to protect groundwater.  DEQ recommends that cities and counties develop and use a comprehensive land use management plan, which includes the impacts of present and future wastewater management in this area. Please schedule a meeting with DEQ for further discussion and recommendations for plan development and implementation. For questions, contact Valerie Greear, Water Quality Engineering Manager at (208) 373-0550. 3. DRINKING WATER  DEQ recommends verifying that there is adequate water to serve this project prior to approval. Please contact the water provider for a capacity statement, declining balance report, and willingness to serve this project.  DEQ recommends verifying if the current and/or proposed drinking water system is a regulated public drinking water system. A drinking water system is a Public Water System (PWS) if it has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of 25 or more people per day for at least 60 days per year (refer to the DEQ website at: For non-regulated systems, DEQ recommends annual testing for total coliform bacteria, nitrate, and nitrite.  IDAPA 58.01.08 is the section of Idaho rules regarding public drinking water systems. Please review these rules to determine whether this or future projects will require DEQ approval.  All projects for construction or modification of public drinking water systems require preconstruction approval.  If any private wells will be included in this project, we recommend that they be tested for total coliform bacteria, nitrate, and nitrite prior to use and retested annually thereafter.  DEQ recommends using an existing drinking water system whenever possible or construction of a new community drinking water system. Please contact DEQ to discuss this project and to explore options to both best serve the future residents of this development and provide for protection of groundwater resources.  DEQ recommends cities and counties develop and use a comprehensive land use management plan which addresses the present and future needs of this area for adequate, safe, and sustainable drinking water. Please schedule a meeting with DEQ for further discussion and recommendations for plan development and implementation. ---PAGE BREAK--- September 2025 Page 3 of 4 For questions, contact Valerie Greear, Water Quality Engineering Manager at (208) 373-0550. 4. SURFACE WATER  Please contact DEQ to determine whether this project will require an Idaho Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (IPDES) Permit.

Box 130 Star, Idaho 83669 Re: File Nos.: RZ-25-03, PP-25-03, CPA-25-02 and PR-25-03 for Longbow Subdivision The property is located at the southeast corner of W. Broken Arrow Rd & N. Pollard Ln in Star, ID Dear Mr. Nickel: The Foothill Ditch Company (referred to as “Ditch Company”) has a ditch and easement that runs through or abuts this property. In addition, the Middleton Mill Ditch Company and Middleton Irrigation Association (collectively referred to as “MM-MI”) have a lateral ditch and easement that runs through or abuts this property. The easement for MM-MI and the Ditch Company is 25 feet each side from the top of bank. The developer must contact the Ditch Company and MM-MI’s attorneys, Sawtooth Law Offices, PLLC, for approval before any encroachment, change of easement, or drainage discharge into Ditch Company and MM-MI’s facilities occur. The Ditch Company and MM-MI must review drainage plans and construction plans prior to any approval. The Ditch Company and MM-MI generally require a License Agreement prior to any approval for the following reasons: 1. Relocation of a facility which would also require a new easement and relinquishment of the old easement once the relocation has been completed. 2. Piping of a facility. 3. Encroachment on a facility with gas, water and sewer lines, utility lines, roadways, bridges or any other structures. 4. Drainage discharges into any facilities. ---PAGE BREAK--- www.sawtoothlaw.com Attorneys licensed in Idaho, Oregon and Washington Also, please be advised that neither the Ditch Company nor MM-MI approve of trees within their easements. Therefore, any existing trees within easement will need to be removed. On occasion, the Ditch Company and MM-MI may make an exception on a case-by-case basis, which requires the developers/owners to obtain written permission from the Ditch Company and MM-MI for existing trees to remain.

Findings for Consideration 1. History/ Prior Action ACHD previously reviewed this site (highlighted blue) and the five parcels located directly adjacent to the east of the site (highlighted yellow) in January 2021 as part of an annexation, rezone and a planned unit development application to allow for a mixed-use development including residential, retail, office, event center, farmers market, restaurant, winery, bed & breakfast and garden center. The application also included a development agreement with the City of Star. In September 2023, ACHD approved plans for the construction of frontage improvements on Broken Arrow Street, abutting the parcel located to the far east of this site. As of the date of this application, the frontage improvements have not been constructed on Broken Arrow Street abutting the event center parcel. The City has indicated that Broken Arrow Street would be improved as a collector street along the frontage of the five parcels located directly adjacent to the east of the site when the current site is approved for development. Staff is supportive of Broken Arrow Street being improved as part of this development and should be constructed as ½ of a 36-foot wide collector street section to include pavement widening, vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot wide detached or 7-foot wide attached concrete sidewalk(see Findings 3, page 7 for requirements abutting the current development site).It should be noted that ACHD is not party to the development agreement with the City of Star. The dedication of right-of-way should be required to 2-feet behind back of sidewalk, or for detached sidewalk, the right-of-way may be reduced to 2-feet behind back of curb and provide a permanent right-of-way easement from the right-of-way line to 2-feet behind back of sidewalk abutting the five parcels located directly adjacent to the east of the site. 2. Pollard Lane a. Existing Conditions: Pollard Lane is improved with 2-travel lanes, and no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. There is 83-feet of right-of-way for Pollard Lane (43-feet from centerline). There is a large irrigation ditch (Klondike Ditch) that runs along the east side of Pollard Lane adjacent to the site. b. Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk on Pollard Lane located outside of the right-of-way and on the east side of the Klondike Ditch abutting the site. The applicant is not proposing to improve Pollard Lane or dedicate additional right-of-way abutting the site. ---PAGE BREAK--- 7 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: Although Pollard Lane was recently reclassified as a minor arterial road, this segment of Pollard Lane has been improved as a collector street with vertical curb, gutter and sidewalk south of the site. Additionally, when the Star Middle School application, located northwest of the site, was approved in 2015, ACHD determined that Pollard Lane between Beacon Light Road and Floating Feather Road should be widened to the west, due to the size of the canal and the cost associated with relocating the canal outside of the right- of-way. Because of this shift, developments on the east side of Pollard Lane have been required to install vertical curb and gutter at the existing eastern edge of pavement for Pollard Lane and a detached 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the east side of the canal. Consistent with ACHD’s prior actions in the area, the applicant should be required to improve Pollard Lane with vertical curb and gutter at the existing edge of pavement of Pollard Lane, and as proposed construct 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk located on the east side of the canal abutting the site. The applicant should be required to provide a permanent right-of-way easement to 2-feet behind back of sidewalk for any public sidewalk placed outside of the dedicated right-of-way. 3. Broken Arrow Street a. Existing Conditions: Broken Arrow Street is improved with 2-travel lanes, 22-feet of pavement and no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. There is 61 to 73-feet of right-of-way for Broken Arrow Street (28-feet from centerline). b. Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct 7-foot wide concrete sidewalk on Broken Arrow Street abutting the site. c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: Consistent with District Collector Street policy, the applicant should be required to construct Broken Arrow Street as ½ of a 36-foot wide collector street section to include pavement widening, vertical curb, gutter and as proposed, 7-foot wide attached concrete sidewalk abutting the site. The applicant should be required to dedicate right-of-way to 2-feet behind back of attached sidewalk abutting the site. 4. Private Roads/ Driveways 4.1 Broken Arrow Street a. Existing Conditions: There are no existing driveways from the site onto Broken Arrow Street. b. Applicant’s Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct a gated private road/drive aisle with a 28-foot wide and a 20-foot wide travel lane and a 45-foot wide center landscape island located 233-feet east of Pollard Lane (measured centerline-to-centerline). c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal does not meet District Successive Driveway and Driveway Width policies which require driveways to align or offset any other driveways along Broken Arrow Street a minimum of 150-feet and restricts driveways to a maximum width of 30-feet for developments with less than 100 vehicle trips daily. However, staff recommends a modification of policy to allow the proposed driveway location, as the driveways on the north side of Broken Arrow Street are all residential driveways that are anticipated to generate less than 10 vehicle trips daily. The applicant should be required to construct the driveway onto Broken Arrow Street located 233-feet east of Pollard Lane as a curb return type driveway with a maximum width of 30-feet within the right-of-way. Once outside of the right-of-way the private road/driveway may be widened to a 28-foot wide and 20-foot wide travel lane with a 45-foot wide center landscape island. The center landscape islands should be located outside of the right-of-way. ---PAGE BREAK--- 8 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 The applicant should be required to locate the gate or keypad (whichever is closer) a minimum of 50-feet from the near edge of pavement of Broken Arrow Street and provide an on-site turnaround. If the City of Star approves the private road, the applicant shall be required to pave the private roadway in its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of all public streets and install pavement tapers with 15-foot curb radii abutting the existing roadway edge. If private roads are not approved by the City of Star, the applicant will be required to revise and resubmit the preliminary plat to provide public standard local streets in these locations. Street name and stop signs are required for the private road. The signs may be ordered through the District. Verification of the correct, approved name of the road is required. ACHD does not make any assurances that the private road, which is a part of this application, will be accepted as a public road if such a request is made in the future. Substantial redesign and reconstruction costs may be necessary in order to qualify this road for public ownership and maintenance. The following requirements must be met if the applicant wishes to dedicate the roadway to ACHD: • Dedicate a minimum of 50-feet of right-of-way for the road. • Construct the roadway to the minimum ACHD requirements. • Construct a stub street to the surrounding parcels. 5. Other Access Pollard Lane is classified as a minor arterial roadway and Broken Arrow Street is classified as a collector roadway. Other than the access specifically approved with this application, direct lot access is prohibited to these roadways and should be noted on the final plat. ---PAGE BREAK--- 9 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 E. Policy 1. Federal Accessibility Design Guidelines and Standards District policy 7203.1.1 states that developers shall follow the current version of the U.S. Access Board’s Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way (PROWAG), 36 CFR Part 1190, September 7, 2023; (Also see, and for additional information). 2. Minor Improvements Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing Highways adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These needed transportation facilities are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk and/or bike lane construction or replacement (with physical buffers if missing and needed); construction of transitional sidewalk segments; crosswalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; repair, replacement or expansion of curb extensions; replacement of unused driveways with curb, gutter, sidewalk, repair or addition of traffic calming or speed mitigation features; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs, motor vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle traffic control devices; and other similar items. The current version of PROWAG will determine the applicable accessibility requirements for alterations and elements added to existing streets. ACHD staff is responsible for identifying the minor improvements that would be proportionate to the size and complexity of the development. 3. Livable Street Performance Measures District policy 7203.8 states that ACHD has adopted performance measures (level of stress) for evaluating the experience of bicyclists and pedestrians. ACHD seeks to create a transportation network that serves all ages and abilities. Bike and pedestrian facilities built through development should achieve a bike and pedestrian level of traffic stress 1 or 2, with no new bike lane below a minimum of 5-feet. 4. Pollard Lane Arterial Roadway Policy: District Policy 7205.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for improving all street frontages adjacent to the site regardless of whether or not access is taken to all of the adjacent streets. Improvements shall include transitional segments in accordance with the current version of PROWAG. Master Street Map and Typology Policy: District Policy 7205.5 states that the design of improvements for arterials shall be in accordance with District standards, including the Master Street Map, Livable Streets Design Guide, and the most current ACHD Livable Streets Performance Measures Plan as adopted by the ACHD Commission. The developer or engineer should contact the District before starting any design. Street Section and Right-of Way Width Policy: District Policy 7205.2.1 & 7205.5.2 states that the standard 3-lane street section shall be 37-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb). This width typically accommodates a single travel lane in each direction, and a continuous center left-turn lane, and curbs and gutters. A 3-lane road shall also include a minimum 10-foot wide multi-use path on both sides with at 8-foot wide buffer from back-of-curb. Other bike facility treatments as defined in the ACHD Bike Master plan may be approved at the discretion of the ACHD Development Review Supervisor. If an interim on-street bike lane is required in order to connect to existing facilities, the street section shall be 53-feet to allow for a 5-foot wide bike lane and 3-foot wide painted buffer. Landscaped medians with intermittent turn lanes may be allowed when a minimum of 20-feet of pavement on both sides of the median is provided. ---PAGE BREAK--- 10 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 If a landscaped median is included in any of these cross sections, the landscaping shall be maintained by license agreement with the adjacent HOA, property owner, or by interagency agreement with the corresponding land use jurisdiction. At the discretion of Traffic Engineering staff, adjustments may be made to the street section, including removal of the continuous center turn lanes or modification to lane widths, where no driveways or intersections are present or to ensure adequate space for pathway and buffers. Right-of-Way Dedication: District Policy 7205.2 states that The District will provide compensation for additional right-of-way dedicated beyond the existing right-of-way along arterials listed as impact fee eligible in the adopted Capital Improvements Plan using available impact fee revenue in the Impact Fee Service Area. No compensation will be provided for right-of-way on an arterial that is not listed as impact fee eligible in the Capital Improvements Plan. The District may acquire additional right-of-way beyond the site-related needs to preserve a corridor for future capacity improvements, as provided in Section 7300. Pedestrian Facilities: District Policy 7205.5.7 requires a concrete sidewalk at least 5-feet wide are required on both sides of all arterial streets. A parkway strip at least 8-feet wide between the back- of-curb and street edge of the sidewalk is required to provide increased safety and protection of pedestrians. Alternatively, on roadways identified for improvement in the Capital Improvement Plan, a minimum 10-foot wide multi-use path may be required. The path shall be placed in accordance with planned buildout in the Master Street Map with a minimum 8-foot wide planter strip as measured to the closest edge of the path. Street trees are encouraged between the pedestrian facility and the roadway when irrigation and maintenance will occur by the adjacent property owner or HOA through an approved license agreement. Consult the District’s planter width policy if trees are to be placed within the parkway strip. In some instances, to match existing conditions, a minimum 7-foot wide sidewalk may be constructed next to the back-of-curb. ACHD Development Review staff will be responsible for determining the required facility. Vertical hardscape alternatives to street trees may be considered in the buffer space when street trees are not practicable. Detached sidewalks and multi-use paths are encouraged and should be parallel to the adjacent roadway. Pedestrian facilities will only be allowed to deviate from a straight line parallel to the roadway when authorized by Development Review staff to accommodate site specific conditions street trees, utilities, etc.). Appropriate easements shall be provided if public pedestrian facilities are placed out of the right-of- way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right-of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the pedestrian facility. Pedestrian facilities shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. Curb ramps or blended transitions shall be provided to connect the pedestrian access route at each pedestrian street crossing in accordance with the current version of PROWAG. Provide detectable warning surface in accordance with the current version of PROWAG. Frontage Improvements Policy: District Policy 7205.2.1 states that the developer shall widen the pavement to a minimum of 17-feet from centerline plus a 3-foot wide gravel shoulder adjacent to the entire site. Curb, gutter and additional pavement widening may be required (See Section 7205.5.5). ACHD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map (MSM) guide the right-of-way acquisition, arterial street requirements, and specific roadway features required through development. This segment of Pollard Lane is designated in the MSM as a Residential Arterial with 3-lanes and on-street bike lanes, a 37-foot street section within 78-feet of right-of-way. ---PAGE BREAK--- 11 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 5. Broken Arrow Street Collector Street Policy: District policy 7206.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for improving all collector frontages adjacent to the site or internal to the development as required below, regardless of whether access is taken to all of the adjacent streets. Improvements shall include transitional segments in accordance with ADA and the current version of PROWAG. Master Street Map and Typologies Policy: District policy 7206.5 states that if the collector street is designated with a typology on the Master Street Map, that typology shall be considered for the required street improvements. If there is no typology listed in the Master Street Map, then standard street sections shall serve as the default. ACHD reserves the right to require bicycle and pedestrian facilities above those identified in the Livable Streets Design Guide and Master Street Map to ensure the safest facility possible based on current best practice. Street Section and Right-of-Way Policy: District policy 7206.5.2 states that the standard right- of-way width for collector streets shall typically be 50 to 70-feet, depending on the location and width of the sidewalk or multi-use path and the location and use of the roadway. The right-of-way width may be reduced, with District approval, if the sidewalk or multi-use path is located within an easement; in which case the District will require a minimum right-of-way width that extends 2-feet behind the back-of-curb on each side. The standard street section shall be 47-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb). This width typically accommodates a single travel lane in each direction, a continuous center left-turn lane, and bike lanes. If a multi-use path is determined to be the required treatment, the street section shall be reduced to 37-feet. If it is determined a continuous center left-turn lane is not appropriate and a path is installed, the street section may be reduced to 26-feet. Residential Collector Policy: District policy 7206.5.2 states that the standard street section for a collector in a residential area shall be 36-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb). The District will consider a 33-foot or 29-foot street section with written fire department approval and taking into consideration the needs of the adjacent land use, the projected volumes, the need for bicycle lanes, and on-street parking. At the discretion of Traffic Engineering staff, adjustments may be made to the street section, including removal of the continuous center turn lanes or modification to lane widths, where no driveways or intersections are present or to ensure adequate space for pathways and buffers. Pedestrian Facilities: District policy 7206.5.6 requires a concrete sidewalk at least 5-feet wide to be constructed on both sides of all collector streets. A parkway strip at least 8-feet wide between the back-of-curb and street edge of the sidewalk is required to provide increased safety and protection of pedestrians. Consult the District’s planter width policy if trees are to be placed within the parkway strip. Sidewalk constructed next to the back-of-curb shall be a minimum of 7-feet wide. Alternatively, on roadways identified as low-stress bikeways in ACHD’s Bike Master Plan, a minimum 10-foot wide multi-use path may be required in lieu of sidewalks. ACHD Development Review staff will be responsible for determining the required facility. The path shall be built 8-feet behind the back-of-curb as measured to the closest edge of the path. Street trees are encouraged between the pedestrian facility and the roadway when irrigation and maintenance will occur by the adjacent property owner or HOA through an approved license agreement. Vertical hardscape alternatives to street trees may be considered in the buffer space when street trees are not practicable. Pedestrian facilities should be parallel to the adjacent roadway. Pedestrian facilities will only be allowed to deviate from a straight line when authorized by Development Review staff to meet site specific conditions street trees, utilities, etc.). Appropriate easements shall be provided if public sidewalks or multi-use paths are placed out of the right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right-of-way line and ---PAGE BREAK--- 12 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk or multi-use path. Sidewalks shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. Curb ramps or blended transitions shall be provided to connect the pedestrian access route at each pedestrian street crossing in accordance with the current version of PROWAG. Provide detectable warning surface in accordance with the current version of PROWAG. ACHD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map (MSM) guide the right-of-way acquisition, collector street requirements, and specific roadway features required through development. This segment of Broken Arrow Street is designated in the MSM as a Residential Collector with 2-lanes, and on-street bike lanes, a 36-foot wide street section within 54 to 66-feet of right-of-way. 6. Private Roads/ Driveways 6.1 Broken Arrow Street Private Road Policy: District policy 7212.1 states that the lead land use agencies in Ada County establish the requirements for private streets. The District retains authority and will review the proposed intersection of a private and public street for compliance with District intersection policies and standards. The private road should have the following requirements: • Designed to discourage through traffic between two public streets, • Graded to drain away from the public street intersection, and • If a private road is gated, the gate or keypad (if applicable) shall be located a minimum of 50-feet from the near edge of the intersection and a turnaround shall be provided. Access Policy: District Policy 7206.4.1 states that all access points associated with development applications shall be determined in accordance with the policies in this section and Section 7202. Access points shall be reviewed only for a development application that is being considered by the lead land use agency. Approved access points may be relocated and/or restricted in the future if the land use intensifies, changes, or the property redevelops. District Policy 7206.1 states that the primary function of a collector is to intercept traffic from the local street system and carry that traffic to the nearest arterial. A secondary function is to service adjacent property. Access will be limited or controlled. Collectors may also be designated at bicycle and bus routes. Driveway Location Policy (Stop Controlled Intersection): District policy 7206.4.4 requires driveways located on collector roadways near a STOP controlled intersection to be located outside of the area of influence; OR a minimum of 150-feet from the intersection, whichever is greater. Dimensions shall be measured from the centerline of the intersection to the centerline of the driveway. Successive Driveways: District policy 7206.4.5 Table 1 requires driveways located on collector roadways with a speed limit of 40 MPH and daily traffic less than 100 VTD to align or offset a minimum of 150-feet from any existing or proposed driveway. Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7206.4.6 restricts high-volume driveways (100 VTD or more) to a maximum width of 36-feet and low-volume driveways (less than 100 VTD) to a maximum width of 30-feet. Curb return type driveways with 30-foot radii will be required for high-volume driveways with 100 VTD or more. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for low-volume driveways with less than 100 VTD. Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7206.4.6, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet ---PAGE BREAK--- 13 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers in accordance with Table 2 under District Policy 7206.4.6. Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing Highways adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These needed transportation facilities are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk and/or bike lane construction or replacement (with physical buffers if missing and needed); construction of transitional sidewalk segments; crosswalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; repair, replacement or expansion of curb extensions; replacement of unused driveways with curb, gutter, sidewalk, repair or addition of traffic calming or speed mitigation features; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs, motor vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle traffic control devices; and other similar items. The current version of PROWAG will determine the applicable accessibility requirements for alterations and elements added to existing streets. ACHD staff is responsible for identifying the minor improvements that would be proportionate to the size and complexity of the development. 7. Tree Planters Tree Planter Policy: Tree Planter Policy: The District’s Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in planters less than 8-feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet. 8. Landscaping Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACHD right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision triangle at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans. 9. Pathway Crossings United States Access Board R304.5.1.2 Shared Use Paths. In shared use paths, the width of curb ramps runs and blended transitions shall be equal to the width of the shared use path. AASHTO's Guidelines for the Development of Bicycle Facilities 5.3.5 Other Intersection Treatments: The opening of a shared use path at the roadway should be at least the same width as the shared use path itself. If a curb ramp is provided, the ramp should be the full width of the path, not including any flared sides if utilized. . . . Detectable warnings should be placed across the full width of the ramp. FHWA's "Designing Sidewalks and Trails for Access" (1999) reflected common ADA-related concepts: Chapter 6, Page 16-6: The width of the ramp should be at least as wide as the average width of the trail to improve safety for users who will be traveling at various speeds. In addition, the overall width of the trail should be increased, so the curb ramp can be offset to the side. The increased width reduces conflict at the intersection by providing more space for users at the bottom of the ramp. ---PAGE BREAK--- 14 Longbow/ SPP25-0005/ RZ-25-03/PR-25-03/ PP-25-03/CPA-25-02 F.
