OLD BUSINESS: 1. Review of preliminary plat for the Maranatha Sudbivision located in the Chubbuck impace area, lying South of Tyhee Road, north of Siphon Road on the east side of Hawthorne Road, proposed to be developed by the Idaho Christian Center. Chairman Nield opened the discussion to the commission members on the questions that were proposed at the last meeting in which the Idaho Christian Center was asked to bring back answers to the questions that were proposed. The questions were directed to Robert E. Ford, Star Route, Box 43, Idaho Christian Center. The~first question was the irrigation lateral rights established in connection with t'he subdivision. Mr. Ford advised the commission that the ditch would be left and~'not abandoned as shown on the old plat. Lynn Winmill advised that by approving the preliminary plat we are not sanctioning or telling him it is okay to cut off water or access to the. canal. Thecommission discussed the~usage of the ditch and what needs to be done with the ditch~ Steve Smart stated that if .it is the only access for irrigation water to the land north of the subdivision it needs to be a protected ditch on the plat. The city has so many problems with water rights and access to water that he ~has brought it to theattention of every developer and required that they ~take.care of it before the. preliminary plat is approved. The ditch needs to be shown as an easement. Mr. Ford told thecommission that the ditch will remain where it is or another headgate will be put in off .the backside of the property. Mr. Smart stated that the ditch needs to be designated with some sort of an easement so that the adjacent property owners up the line don't fill it in and destroy the rightto get the water when it is needed. If designated as an easement on the plat then the property owners of the two lots would know it was an easement to be retained and protected rather than just filled in. The second question was water and sewer services to be extended and connected to the city services in Paradise Acres or dry sewer and water mains that would connect to the c~i~ services at some time. Mr. Ford advised the~city that the~cost to hook up to the city water and sewer was astronomical. The dry sewer lines would'need new ones when annexed to the city. Dry plumbing studs can be put in. Each lot would'have its own well and drain and sceptic tank fields. The percolation test came back good, there was no health'hazzard at all. They would like to hook-up at time of annexation to city rather than now. Chairman Nield informed Mr. Ford that it is the subdivider's cost to put sewer and water in. After the land is sold it is hard to get anyone to pay for them. Page 3 Land Use and Development Commission June 7, 1984 Mr. Ford wants to guarantee to the city that it would not be be stuck with this expense when the property owners asked for services. It is to expensive to charge property owners now for those improvements ten years from now. Scott Reed with Forsgren and Perkins informed the commission that the District Health Department goes for smaller acres with drain fields. The County is not restricting the size of ground to be divided, in relation to the drain fields they are leaving that uPto the~Health Department. The third question was on park land or money in lieu,it was discussed by commission. Money in lieu of park goes to a park that benefits that subdivision. 1/10 acre cost would be required. The fourth ~tem was streets. Mr. Ford advised that there was a 24' road with a 50' right,of-.way shown on the~plat. Steve told thecommission that the street was not a standard sized street. Mr. Winmill advised that the Idaho. Code states we can use our~ordinance requirement since they will be annexed into the city. Other items discussed by the commission were: 1. Curb and gutter 2. City standard streets requi_red unless waived by CounCil 3. Cul,de-sac at end of road 4. Gravel road, no pavement 5. Bringing road up to standards 6.' protecting the city on sewer, water and road improvements later on with-agreement,~Wording on plat, LID, capital improvement, or escrow fund. Robert Allen made a motion to recommend'to the City Council that we approve the preliminary plat for therMaranatha subdivision with the following recommendation: 1. Final plat should reflect the existance of a private easement on lots 3 and 6 for the private irrigation ditch now existing on such property. 2. Before approval by the council that we have a letter of recommendation from the Health Department that the percolation test is acceptable to them through .the heal th requirements. 3. This ground will be subject to cash contribution in lieu of new park dedication in the. amount to be negotiated. 4. Be required on plat to show tha% in the~future it will be an LID area to provide monies to install sewer lines,~water lines and street improvements, (sidewalk~ street, gutter, curbs.) 5. Increase the width of road to 24' asphalt surface. Ron Nelson seconded the motion. Chairman called for a roll call vote: Williams, yes; Cain, yes; Nield, abstained; Allen, yes; Nelson, yes. Janet Cain made motion to adjourn at lO:O0 p.m., with Myrna Cain seconding the motion. All commission members voted in favor. ~~g~~h a 1 rma n ~yrna ~. crapo,
