NARRATIVE AUGUST PARK SUBDIVISION ANNEXATION AND PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION
This subject property is currently zoned agricultural in Canyon County. The desire is to annex this 9.37 acre property into the City with an R-1 zone for a single family home subdivision.
This property is currently part of a larger enclaved area. It is contiguous to the City on both the south and west sides. The comprehensive plan designates this property has neighborhood 2. Neighborhood 2 has a minimum density of 2 dwellings per acre and a maximum density of 8 dwellings per acre.
The developer proposes a R-1 zone (Neighborhood 2) with a density of 2.56 dwelling units per acre. The desire is to create a subdivision with larger lots. The average residential lot size is 10,604 Square feet. The property is located within a part of the Lot 1 in Block 3 of Upland Park Addition Book 2,
Page 28, NE ¼ of NW ¼, Section 2 Township 3 N, Range 3 W., Boise Meridian, Caldwell, Canyon County, Idaho. A Preliminary Plat is being requested that will observe the Caldwell Planning and Zoning Division application requirements. The development will be in compliance with the future
comprehensive plan. This project will impact the neighbors as described by those that attended the neighborhood meeting, as increasing traffic on Florida and preferring to have a field instead of neighbors in their back yards. Both of these concerns are mitigated by the larger lots (decreasing density) thus decreasing both traffic and neighbors in the back yards of those already living there. Although not completely pleasant to the surrounding neighbors this project does
follow the City’s comprehensive plan for the future. A total of 24 single family lots are proposed with 8 common lots.
