Idaho. Property is currently zoned General Commercial.
Chairman Anderson asked for comment from Public Works Director
Steven Smart. He reviewed the recommendations he had made
pertaining to this subdivision.
Cash Contrubutions might be more appropriate than park
dedication due to the close proximity of Cotant Park.
A utility meeting was held on February 27, 1984 at which
time, easement requirements for all utilities were
determined, including Fort Hall Canals. They were
concerned about protecting the canal easements from
access by children and/or other pedestrians, etc. They
would like to see some substantial fence installed to
keep trespassers out.

property. He is required by Idaho Code to do either
that or provide a method of delivering the water to
all the property owners in the subdivision.
He would recommend the water line in Alpine Road be
larger than the minimum 6" required. He would recommend
a 12" main. This incresed size of line is not called

through lot 25 and Chase Park to provide better emergency
and/or maintenance ingress/egress to this area. This

develop it in phases. He said the first phase would involve
about 95 lots.

the school property with the sewer line. He said the ditch
that bisects the property, he felt sure they would pipe the
north south ditch. He said that Fort Hall would like to see
this ditch piped.
Mr. Rhead said that Mr. Marshall would like to have the requirement
for underground wiring be waived.
He said they had not considered a road through the park as they
had felt the city would not want to give up the 50' right-of-way.
Mr. Rhead said Mr. Marshall was out of town and not able to be
at the meeting, he would like to know the requirements the city
would require and then Forsgren, Perkins Engineering would
