Development Features: PRELIMINARY PLATS: Moyle Village The Preliminary Plat submitted for Moyle Village contains one hundred forty-nine (149) single family residential lots and 27 common lots on 52.23 acres with a density of 2.85 du/ac. The residential lots range in size from 6,600 square feet to 16,414 square feet with the average buildable lot of 9,858 square feet. The applicant has indicated that the total open space is 8.60 acres (16.47%) with usable open space, not including street endcaps and drainage areas of 7.63 acres (14.61%) exceeding the requirement of the current Unified Development Code, Section 8- 4E-2. Streets are proposed to be public and will measure 36 ft. from back of curb to back of curb with a 48 ft right-of-way, satisfying Section 8-4D-34B(4) of the Unified Development Code. The primary access for the development will be off Beacon Light Road using N. Pinehaven Way through Moyle Estates Subdivision Number 2 (Cresta Del Sol) connecting to N. Foxton Way. The development is providing several stub streets, to be connected at a later date, allowing for greater connectivity.

Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Code Provisions: Comprehensive Plan: 8.2.3 Land Use Map Designations: Neighborhood Residential: Suitable primarily for single family residential use. Densities in the majority of this land use area are to range from 3 units per acre to 5 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 adjacent to existing residential lots of one acre and larger where those existing larger lots are not likely to be subdivided in the future. Special Transition Overlay Area Development adjacent to, and potentially within, this area is to provide for an appropriate transition between existing and new home sites where new urban development is being planned adjacent to previously approved and constructed rural county developments of years past. Site layout is to provide for a transition in density and lot sizing. 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: ---PAGE BREAK--- MOYLE VILLAGE-HEIGHTS SUBDIVISION FFCL FILE NO. PP-21-06/DA-21-05/PR-21-05 7 • Implement the Land Use Map and associated policies as the official guide for development. • Manage urban sprawl in order to minimize costs of urban services and to protect rural areas. • Encourage land uses that are in harmony with existing resources, scenic areas, natural wildlife areas, and surrounding land uses. 8.5.3 Policies Related Mostly to the Urban Residential Planning Areas: A. The Neighborhood Residential Land Use is to encourage urban style development densities to limit urban sprawl. B. Low densities within the 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 within the Special Transition Overlay Area is to provide for a transition in density and lot sizing. Base densities may be significantly reduced, or home sites may be clustered to increase open space within a portion of a site when property is within this overlay. 8.5.9 Additional Land Use Component Policies: • Encourage flexibility in site design and innovative land uses. • 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. 18.4 Implementation Policies: E. 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.

Development Features: REZONE: The rezone request from Residential (R-3) to Residential (R-4-DA) on the applicant’s property will allow for the subdivision of the property to develop with urban densities that will be consistent with the current Comprehensive Plan Map. The overall gross density of the proposed development is 4.01 dwelling units per acre. The current Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates this property as Neighborhood Residential, with an allowed density of 3 to 5 dwelling units per acre. The requested density aligns with the surrounding residential land uses in the immediate area. The requested zoning designation and density meets the intent of the Comprehensive Plan. PRELIMINARY PLAT: The Preliminary Plat submitted contains 203 single family residential lots, and 12 common area lots for a total of 215 total lots. The residential lots will include 137 detached single-family dwellings and 66 attached single-family townhomes. Lots range in size from 1,545 square feet (attached townhomes) to 25,586 square feet with the average lot size of 6,281.58 square feet. The street system within the development will be both public and private. Proposed local public streets and private streets measure 36 ft from back of curb to back of curb on the submitted preliminary plat which meets the minimum City width requirement of the UDC. The private alleyways within the townhome section of the development will measure 24 feet in width. The Star Fire District has approved the width of the alleyways. The applicant has indicated on the preliminary plat that the development will contain a total of 13.53 acres (26.8%) of open space with the majority being usable open space (over 15%). This exceeds the minimum requirements for total and usable open space in the current Unified Development Code, Section 8-4E-2. Amenities proposed include a community pool with on-site restroom and changing rooms, a tot lot, an open space park with picnic area, a public pathway ---PAGE BREAK--- CRANEFIELD SUBDIVISION FFCL FILE NO. RZ-21-02/DA-21-04/PP-21-05/PR-21-04 3 along the Lawrence-Kennedy Lateral that will connect to the east and west, and a pond with a fishing dock. The development has two current access points, including an access to the east at W. Bridger Bay Drive (Pinewood Lakes Subdivision), and north at S. Quincannon Avenue (Stonecrest Subdivision). In addition, two stub streets to the west are included for future connection to S. Can Ada Road extension and a future planned collector road to the west. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT FEATURES: • Sidewalks Sidewalks are proposed at five-foot widths and will be detached throughout the subdivision with 8-foot landscape strips. • Streetlights A streetlight location plan and design sample has been submitted by the applicant. 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 concept design for the streetlights that meet the intent of this criteria. Staff will continue to work with the applicant on the final design. • Pathways The development contains several internal pathways throughout the development linking open space and amenities to the residents. City policy requires all pathways to be improved with a concrete or asphalt surface. The City has also been working towards public pathway connections along canals and other waterways with the individual irrigation districts. The applicant has included a pathway along the Lawrence-Kennedy lateral that will connect the proposed community to the east and eventually the north and west. The applicant shall provide a public easement for this pathway. • Subdivision and Street Names Street names will be approved by Canyon County Development Services prior to signature of final plat.

The applicant shall submit an application Permit to Develop in an Area of Special Flood Hazard to the City Engineer for review and approval. • Block Length Waiver Many of the block in the proposed subdivision exceed the 750’ maximum block length requirement. Given the physical constraints of the property, including the locations of existing stub street from the east and north, along with the unique, circuitous layout of the street system and use of private streets, Staff is supportive of a waiver to the block in this development. The applicant should work with the Highway District with regards to traffic calming technics, if necessary. • Phasing Plan The applicant has submitted a phasing plan for this development. • Setback Waiver The applicant has requested the following setbacks through the Development Agreement for the attached single-family dwellings: • Zero setback for interior lot lines, and • 3-foot rear setback from garage to alley. • 14-foot corner side yards from back of sidewalk. • 14-foot front yards from back of sidewalk. • 15 feet minimum between buildings. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT: The applicant shall enter into a Development Agreement with the City. In addition to the setback waivers and attached residential allowances listed above, the applicant will also enter into an agreement with the City of Star to pay a proportionate share contribution for impacts to the State Highway system. The Idaho Transportation Department has calculated this proportionate share amount to be $72,798 or approximately $355 per buildable lot in the Moyle Village and Heights developments.

RZ-21-02/DA-21-04/PP-21-05/PR-21-04 6 Neighborhood Residential: Suitable primarily for single family residential use. Densities in the majority of this land use area are to range from 3 units per acre to 5 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 adjacent to existing residential lots of one acre and larger where those existing larger lots are not likely to be subdivided in the future. 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: • Manage urban sprawl in order to minimize costs of urban services and to protect rural areas. • Retain and encourage rural areas where it will not result in increased costs for urban service. • Encourage land uses that are in harmony with existing resources, scenic areas, natural wildlife areas, and surrounding land uses. 8.5.3 Policies Related Mostly to the Urban Residential Planning Areas: A. The Neighborhood Residential Land Use is to encourage urban style development densities to limit urban sprawl. B. Low densities within the 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. 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. ---PAGE BREAK--- CRANEFIELD SUBDIVISION FFCL FILE NO. RZ-21-02/DA-21-04/PP-21-05/PR-21-04 7 • 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. 18.4 Implementation Policies: E. Development Agreements allow the city to enter into a contract with a developer upon rezoning.

Parcels are to be two acres minimum. It is the intent of this land use designation to help to preserve Star’s rural feel. Huge manicured “Rural Residential” lots are discouraged and therefore manicured home site areas on these properties should not exceed 1/2 acre. Uses may include active agriculture, viticulture, equestrian, and residential. Uses include native open space and small-scale active farmland. The Rural Residential land use is not amenity based (sewer, water, schools) and will usually be located away from goods and services. These areas encourage the keeping and raising of small-scale crops and/or animals and do not necessarily include manicured yards, sidewalks, bike paths, streetlights or planned park and recreation facilities. Density may be further limited due to the limited availability of infrastructure. Modified street sections and a reduction in light pollution (by reducing or eliminating lighting standards) may be offered for a more rural feel. Private streets may be permitted in this district for access to newly subdivided or split property.

The ratio for lots adjacent to properties shall be determined on a case by case basis, when considering the size of the development potential for the existing use. This shall not be required if separated by an existing roadway or large canal where the distance between new structures and existing structures equal or exceed 100 feet. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: 8.2.3 Land Use Map Designations: Rural Residential Suitable primarily for rural single-family residential use adjacent to agricultural uses, adjacent to other Rural Residential type uses, and adjacent to BLM land areas. Densities typically range from 1 unit per 2 acres to 1 unit per 5 acres. It is the intent of this land use designation to help to preserve Star’s rural feel. Huge manicured “Rural Residential” lots are discouraged and therefore manicured home site areas on these properties should not exceed 1/2 acre. Uses may include active agriculture, viticulture, equestrian, and residential. Uses include native open space and small-scale active farmland. The Rural Residential land use is not amenity based (sewer, water, schools) and will usually be located away from goods and services. These areas encourage the keeping and raising of crops and/or animals and do not necessarily include manicured yards, sidewalks, bike paths, or ---PAGE BREAK--- ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF STONEBRIAR SUBDIVISION – FILE # AZ-21-04/DA- 21-13 7 planned park and recreation facilities. Density may be further limited due to the limited availability of infrastructure. Modified street sections and a reduction in light pollution (by reducing lighting standards) may be offered for a more rural feel. This land use designation is to be located such that it does not block extension of urban services at reasonable costs. Wells and septic systems should be permitted for lots in this land use designation if approved by the applicable Health Department. Special Transition Overlay Area Development adjacent to, and potentially within, this area is to provide for an appropriate transition between existing and new home sites where new urban development is being planned adjacent to previously approved and constructed rural county developments of years past. Site layout is to provide for a transition in density and lot sizing. 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: • Manage urban sprawl in order to minimize costs of urban services and to protect rural areas. • Retain and encourage rural areas where it will not result in increased costs for urban service. • Encourage land uses that are in harmony with existing resources, scenic areas, natural wildlife areas, and surrounding land uses. 8.5.2 Policies Related Mostly to the Rural and Agricultural Planning Areas A. Create a “Rural Residential” land use zoning designation for rural lots to permanently remain as a part of the city in strategic locations and terminate rezones to the Rural Transitional (RT). B. Rural Residential areas help to preserve Star’s rural feel and huge manicured “Rural Residential” lots are discouraged in order to preserve land for more rural/agricultural type use. The manicured home site areas on these properties should be minimal and subordinate to open rural ground for pastures, farming, and other rural uses. C. Modified street sections with dark sky lighting standards should be encouraged in Rural Residential land use areas. ---PAGE BREAK--- ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF STONEBRIAR SUBDIVISION – FILE # AZ-21-04/DA- 21-13 8 D. When an urban density residential development is planned with lots that directly abut lots within a Rural Residential area an appropriate transition is to be provided for the two abutting residential lot types. A transition must take into consideration site constraints that provide transitional lots and/or open space area avoiding urban lots directly abutting rural residential lots. E. Larger setbacks should be required for new lots planned to abut existing Rural Residential lots. F. Lots within a Rural Residential Land Use designation should be designed such that lots on each side of the street are of similar size. G. Rural Residential developments are to be located so that they do not block extension of urban services at reasonable costs and will require utility easements where necessary to assure urban service extensions. H. Add an Agricultural zoning designation within the zoning code to allow for large parcels of land to be annexed into the city as either agricultural use or as agricultural use transitioning in the future to city rural residential or urban lots. I. At the time that the Comprehensive Plan is adopted, the existing legal uses of land will not be impeded. 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. 18.4 Implementation Policies: ---PAGE BREAK--- ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF STONEBRIAR SUBDIVISION – FILE # AZ-21-04/DA- 21-13 9 E. 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. PROJECT OVERVIEW ANNEXATION & REZONE: The annexation and rezoning request for the Stonebriar Subdivision will bring the existing 10- acre lot development into the City of Star. The R-R zoning designation proposed is consistent with the current Comprehensive Plan Map. The subdivision will also be annexing into the Star Sewer and Water District, and will be eventually connecting to extended services, once available. The existing subdivision was developed with a 24’ wide private, gated roadway with gravel shoulder and no sidewalk. Because this was a rural development when approved by Ada County, the subdivision does not include streetlights, fire hydrants or municipal sewer and water service. When the City annexes this property, they will be annexing the subdivision under its current configuration. PUBLIC AND AGENCY RESPONSES No public or agency comments have been received to date. STAFF ANALYSIS & RECOMMENDATIONS Staff is supportive of the annexation request for Stonebriar Subdivision. A development agreement is included and conditions of approval can be negotiated between the City and the homeowners prior to annexation. Based upon the information provided to staff in the applications and agency comments received to date, staff finds that the proposed annexation and zoning and development agreement meets the requirements, standards and intent for development as they relate to the Unified Development Code and the Comprehensive Plan. 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 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. FINDINGS The Council may approve, conditionally approve, deny or table this request. In order to approve these applications, the Unified Development Code requires that Council must find the following: ---PAGE BREAK--- ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF STONEBRIAR SUBDIVISION – FILE # AZ-21-04/DA- 21-13 10 ANNEXATION/REZONE FINDINGS: 1.

Per your request I am authorizing the developer to place cluster box units at point A on the attached map to provide enough CBUs for the entirety of the development in all of its phases. The location will be on Block 4 Lot 8 of the development facing Bright Light Ave. Please keep in mind when ordering your cluster boxes from the manufacturer we request that you ask them to number the boxes consecutively. As an example we would want the boxes to be labeled 1-165 as opposed to multiple units repeatedly numbered 1-16. We also request that the Parcel Lockers on the units also be numbered consecutively, so if there are 11 CBU units needed for the development, and there were two parcel lockers per unit, then the parcel lockers would be numbered 1 through 22. If the CBUs are not numbered correctly, we may refuse to deliver until the numbering has been corrected. Thank you for your assistance.

Box 130 Star, ID 83669 RE: Stargazer Subdivision, PP-21-07 Dear Planners: Joint School District No. 2 (dba West Ada School District) has experienced significant and sustained growth in student enrollment during the last ten years. Applying our Student Generation Rate per SF dwelling unit, .1 per MF dwelling unit), to the Stargazer Subdivision we predict these homes, when completed, could house 88 school aged children. Approval of this development could affect enrollments at the following schools in West Ada District: West Ada School District supports economic growth. To meet the need for additional school capacity, West Ada School District will accept the donation of land appropriate for a school site. Passage of a bond issue will be required prior to the commencement of new school construction. Residents cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school(s) as it may be necessary to bus students to available classrooms across the district. The safety of our students is our first and foremost priority. With this in mind, we ask that you encourage the developer to provide safe walkways, bike baths and pedestrian access for our students. School capacity and transportation is addressed in Idaho Code 67-6508 - future development will continue to have an impact on the district’s capacity.

COMPASS has developed this review as a tool for local governments to evaluate whether land developments are consistent with the goals of Communities in Motion 2040 2.0 (CIM 2040), the regional long-range transportation plan for Ada and Canyon Counties. This checklist is not intended to be prescriptive, but rather a guidance document based on CIM 2040 2.0 goals.

Particularly for those living in this beautiful area of Star, ID. The department has completed our review of the Stargazer Subdivision Traffic Impact Study (TIS) provided by CR Engineering. Site trips generated by your development adds congestion to both the SH-44 and SH-16 corridors. ITD entered into an agreement with the city of Star to collect a proportionate share contribution from each new development for impacts to the State highway system. As two agencies we are working together to accelerate highway construction within Star’s area of impact to accommodate new development growth. ITD determined Stargazer Subdivision’s total proportionate share contribution to be $109,361. Three State highway intersections were included in the TIS analysis and the breakdown of proportionate share by intersection is as follows. Intersection Proportionate Share Contribution SH-16 / Beacon Light Road $50,916 SH-44 / Star Road $58,445 SH-16 / SH-44 NA TOTAL $109,361 Per household unit Approx. $875 Proportionate share calculations are based off the subdivision’s anticipated site trips through an intersection versus total traffic volumes. Please review the ITD Staff Technical Report for specific details on the calculations. ---PAGE BREAK--- IDAHO TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT P.O.
