Project Narrative for Walmart Fuel Station #2780-1000
The project site is located at 5118 Cleveland Blvd, Caldwell, ID 83607 (APN 32501010 0). The project site
was previously developed with an USA Gasoline Fuel Station. Based on the available Decommissioning
Report provided by Idaho DEQ, the fuel station was removed in 2020. The site currently lies undeveloped
surrounded by existing curb, gutter and landscaping.
This project proposes a new Walmart Fuel Station that includes a new canopy and service station; based
on C-3 Zoning, fuel station is permitted. The canopy has a minimum height of 14 ft and a maximum
height of 16ft. The service station is a single-story building, approximately 1,556 sf with a maximum
height of 16ft. The service station will utilize an existing 2” water meter and service line onsite in
addition to connecting to an existing 8” sewer main by installing a new 4” sewer lateral. The site will
include 8 parking stalls, new sidewalks, site lighting, landscaping, trash enclosure and pylon sign. The
project will utilize the existing storm drain system onsite which discharges into an existing stormwater
retention basin located northwest of the property.
This Administrative Determination application is a request for a 5’ landscape buffer variance along
Cleveland Blvd. During our Roundtable meeting with the City of Caldwell on 12/14/2023, Planning &
Zoning mentioned that we could request a landscape variance here if we could achieve 20’; which is
what’s currently proposed (our permit number is BC24-000008). Originally, we were trying to protect the
existing curb in place which only provided a 6’ wide landscape buffer, similar to the adjacent properties,
but we added an additional 14’ as requested by P&Z. The request for the 5’ landscape buffer variance is
due to an existing 20’ sewer easement along the southwest property line. A 25’ landscape buffer will
push our proposed underground fuel tanks within a foot of the sewer easement; the more space we can
provide between the tanks and the sewer main the better. Also, a 25’ landscape buffer will reduce the
parking area and usable space available for the fuel delivery trucks by 5’, from 20’ to 15’. As mentioned
above, this Administrative Determination application is a request to reduce the landscape buffer
requirement along Cleveland Blvd from 25’ to 20’.
