Public Hearing of May 5, 2003
II GENERAL FACTS
2.1 APPLICANT'S: Adelle Doty, Doty Properties, LLC 25206 The Driving Lane Caldwell, Idaho 83607.
2.2 OWNER: Same
2.3 REQUEST(S): To rezone Lot 3, Block 1, SOUTH KIMBALL ADDITION TO CALDWELL from R-1
(Single Family Residential) to R-3 (Multi-family residential); to amend the Comprehensive Land Use
Map from Low Density to High Density Residential; and for a special use permit for an office in an
R-3 zone.
2.3.1 LOCATION: 202 E. Ash Street, Caldwell, Idaho 83605.
2.4 BACKGROUND: According to the Zoning Ordinance Section 10-02-02 Land Use Schedule, an office
is not allowed in Caldwell in an R-1 z one, but i s allowed in an R-3 zone with the approval o f a
special use permit. During a pre-conference meeting with the Applicant, staff informed the Applicant
that the office use was not allowed in the existing zone. (NOTE: The Applicant received conditional
approval of the Special Use Permit request on March 20, 2003 from the Caldwell Planning and
Zoning Commission).
The Applicant indicated she wished to go through the process to change the existing R-1 zone to an
R-3 (High Density Residential) zone where professional offices are allowed. The Applicant intends to
use the existing structure as a law office for Doty Law & Mediation, which is a solo practitioner, law
practice. Because of the nature of the law practice, parking and traffic will be minimal. Based on the
square footage of the structure, four off-street parking spaces are required. On the Applicant's site
plan these spaces have been provided, with one parking space designated for employee parking.
Normal business hours are Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Ms. Doty has indicated that the residential structure would not be significantly modified; their
intention is only to remove the existing carport. Landscaping issues were discussed, and it was
determined t hat n o existing I andscaping should b e removed but rather i t should b e p reserved i n
order that the residential nature of the structure remain intact. If Public Works Department requires a
sidewalk, the Applicant could remove the grass area where a sidewalk would be constructed.
It should be noted that all of the lots located on the block directly across Ash street to the north are
zoned R-3 (High Density Residential). The Applicant's narrative shows several medical offices in the
immediate vicinity in further support of this proposal.
Therefore, the Applicant is requesting a rezone to R-3, a Comprehensive Land Use Map
amendment, and special use permit approval. If approved, the Comprehensive Land Use Map would
be amended to designate this parcel as High Density Residential; the site will be included in the next
available update of the Comprehensive Land Use Map.
2.4 LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 3, Block 1, SOUTH KIMBALL ADDITION TO CALDWELL, Canyon
County, Idaho, according to the plat filed in Book 5 of Plats, Page 36A, records of said County.
2.5 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Low Density Residential (The request includes a Comp
Plan Map amendment to High Density Residential)
2.6 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMPONENTS APPLICABLE TO THE REQUEST:
Page 2 of 7
Public Hearing of May 5, 2003
2.7 Property Rights: Staff reviewed the five checklist criteria set forth by the Attorney General in the
"Idaho Regulatory Takings Act Guidelines" and did not answer yes to any of the criteria.
2.8 School Facilities and Transportation: The Caldwell and Vallivue School Districts were notified of the
request through mailing of the public hearing notice on April 18, 2003.
2.9 Land use: Zoning Ordinance No. 1451, Section 10-02-02, allows an office in an R-3 (High Density
Residential) zone through a special use permit approval process.
2.10 Parking: Zoning Ordinance No. 1451, Section 10-02-05, Off Street Parking and Loading Standards
states that an office requires 1 space for every 350 square feet of office space. The Applicant's site
plan shows 4 spaces, which meets this requirement. (1349 ± 350 = 4) (see A-9)
2.11 Public Services, Utilities and Facilities: In a memo dated February 24, 2003, the Engineering
Department offers the following comments:
1. Currently there is a 25-foot one-half right-of-way width along E. Ash Street. Per City
requirements, the applicant will be required to provide a 28-foot one-half right-of-way width for
the development.
2. Currently the site has two driveway approaches that have approximately 48-foot 7-inches of
separation between them. City standards require a minimum of 50-foot separation between
driveway approaches (measured near edge of driveway to near edge of driveway). Given the
limited use of the eastern driveway, the Engineering Department does not object to the proposed
spacing.
3. In accordance with City standards, the Applicant will be required to construct sidewalk along the
frontage of the development.
4. City water and City sewer currently serve this site. The nearest sewer line is an 8" line located to
the south of the southwest corner of the project site. There is an 8" water line that fronts the
property in E. Ash Street.
5. Prior to commencement of construction in any dedicated right-of-way, the City Engineering staff
is to be notified. Appropriate City personnel are to be notified in advance of all required
inspection.
6. As noted previously, provision is to be made for the disposal of stormwater drainage in
accordance with the City Stormwater Management Policy. A copy of this policy is available upon
request.
7. Irrigation water for any and all landscaping shall be obtained from applicable Irrigation District
sources.
8. Appropriately licensed public works contractors shall perform all construction of dedicated
facilities.
2.12 Fire Protection: In a memo dated February 20, 2003, the Caldwell Fire Department (CFD) offers the
following comments: The CFD does not object to this rezone and will comment and assign any
conditions during the normal subdivision or building plan review process.
2.13 Irrigation: Pioneer Irrigation District has no objection to the development.

III TESTIMONY BEFORE THE COMMISSION
3.1 Steve Hasson, Community Development Director, presented the staff report and outlined the facts
as stated. Mr. Hasson stated that the request was to rezone a parcel from R-1 to R-3 and a special
use permit for a professional law office. He noted that the Comprehensive Plan Map will be
amended to reflect the change from low density residential to high density residential.
Mr. Hasson reported that Ms. Doty will be converting a residence located at 202 E. Ash Street into a
professional office and has met the criteria as set forth by City staff. He noted that the use is
compatible with the neighborhood inasmuch as professional offices are also located directly across
the street from the proposed site.
3.2 Adelle Doty, Applicant, testified in favor of the application and presented exhibit PZ-1000 (diagram
showing other professional offices in the area. Ms. Doty reported that she was in agreement with
the staff report and would be using the residence for her law practice office. She stated that her
practice is small and should have minimal traffic impact on the neighborhood.
She noted that the client entrance will be the front door of the structure and client parking is readily
accessible via the existing sidewalk. Ms. Doty advised that handicap parking was available along
with a separate ramp entrance for wheelchairs through a side door.
In response to questions asked by Commissioner Alldredge about the disintegrating driveway, Ms.
Doty commented that the concrete in the parking area will be replaced, additionally, the carport will
be removed to accommodate the handicapped parking. She further advised that the driveway on
the east side of the property will not be a drive-thru but will be paved and used for one employee
parking space. She also stated that she would comply with City signage requirements.
3.3 Beatrice Hayes testified in favor of the application. Ms. Hayes stated her concerns how the
driveway had been used in the past. Ms. Hayes expressed satisfaction that the driveway would be
paved and limited to use by one employee..
3.4 Bob Stevenson signed up in favor of the application but chose not to speak.

202 E. ASH STREET, CALDWELL
NARRATIVE
202 E. Ash Street, Caldwell, is owned by Doty Properties, L.L.C. William H. Doty, Sr.
and M. Adelle Doty are the managing members of Doty Properties, L.L.C. The property
was purchased December 20, 2002 solely for the purpose of setting up a law office for M.
Adelle Doty. The property is currently zoned R-1. Request is made to re-zone the
property from R-1 to R-3, and then obtain a special use permit to use the property as a
law office for Doty Law & Mediation, P.L.L.C. The square footage of the office space
will be 1,349 square feet.
Doty Law & Mediation, PLLC is a solo practitioner law practice, with a focus on real
estate law, contract law and civil dispute mediation. The firm is comprised of one
attorney, M. Adelle Doty, and one legal assistant. The number of in-office client visits
average one per day.
Although 202 E. Ash Street is currently zoned R-1, the opposite side of Ash Street is
zoned R-3. Further, the corner lot on the same block and on the same side of Ash Street
as 202 E. Ash is the former R&B Market site, which is zoned C-3. The area is currently a
mixed-use neighborhood, with single-family residential properties, multi-family properties,
coffee shops, and professional offices. Attached as Attachment 1 is a rough sketch of
surrounding properties which have uses other than single-family residential.
To accommodate parking needs and requirements, four off-street parking spaces will be
constructed. The existing carport will be removed to fully accommodate the space needed
for parking. A proposed parking diagram is attached as Attachment 2.
The change in zoning and issuance of the special use permit would further accommodate
the ability of the surrounding residential occupants to complete business within their own
neighborhood. As much of the neighborhood is currently zoned R-3, and special use
permits have been granted for, among other uses, dental and medical offices, the value and
character of adjacent property should not be affected.

The Caldwell Community Development Department issued a notice of Public Hearing on Case Nos.
SUP-184-03 and ZON-29-03 to be held before the Planning and Zoning Commission on March 12,
2003. Public notice requirements set forth in Idaho Code, Chapter 65, Local Planning Act, were
met. On February 25, 2003 notice was published in the Idaho Press Tribune, and on February 21,
2003 notice was mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the project site; and, on February
27, 2003 notice was posted on the site.
1.1 Files and exhibits relative to this application will be available for review in the Community
Development Department, Caldwell City Hall, as well as all public hearings.
II GENERAL FACTS
2.1 APPLICANT'S: Adelle Doty, Doty Properties, LLC 25206 The Driving Lane Caldwell, Idaho 83607.
2.2 OWNER: Same
2.3 REQUEST(S): To rezone Lot 3, Block 1, SOUTH KIMBALL ADDITION TO CALDWELL from R-1
(Single Family Residential) to R-3 (Multi-family residential); to amend the Comprehensive Land Use
Map from Low Density to High Density Residential; and for a special use permit for an office in an
R-3 zone.
Page 1 of 7
Public Hearing of March 12,2003
2.4 BACKGROUND: According to the Zoning Ordinance Section 10-02-02 Land Use Schedule, an office
is n of a flowed in Caldwell in an R-1 z one, but i s allowed in an R-3 zone with the approval o f a
special use permit. During a pre-conference meeting with the Applicant, staff informed the Applicant
that the office use was not allowed in the existing zone.
The Applicant indicated she wished to go through the process to change the existing R-1 zone to an
R-3 (High Density Residential) zone where professional offices are allowed. The Applicant intends to
use the existing structure as a law office for Doty Law & Mediation, which is a solo practitioner, law
practice. Because of the nature of the law practice, parking and traffic will be minimal. Based on the
square footage of the structure, four off-street parking spaces are required. On the Applicant's site
plan these spaces have been provided, with one parking space designated for employee parking.
Normal business hours are Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Ms. Doty has indicated that the residential structure would not be significantly modified; their
intention is only to remove the existing carport. Landscaping issues were discussed, and it was
determined t hat n o existing I andscaping s hould b e removed b ut rather i t s hould b e p reserved i n
order that the residential nature of the structure remain intact. If Public Works Department requires a
sidewalk, the Applicant could remove the grass area where a sidewalk would be constructed.
It should be noted that all of the lots located on the block directly across Ash street to the north are
zoned R-3 (High Density Residential). The Applicant's narrative shows several medical offices in the
immediate vicinity in further support of this proposal.
Therefore, the Applicant is requesting a rezone to R-3, a Comprehensive Land Use Map
amendment, and special use permit approval. If approved, the Comprehensive Land Use Map would
be amended to designate this parcel as High Density Residential; the site will be included in the next
available update of the Comprehensive Land Use Map.
2.3 LOCATION: 202 E. Ash Street, Caldwell, Idaho 83605
2.4 LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 3, Block 1, SOUTH KIMBALL ADDITION TO CALDWELL, Canyon
County, Idaho, according to the plat filed in Book 5 of Plats, Page 36A, records of said County.
2.5 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Low Density Residential (The request includes a Comp
Plan Map amendment to High Density Residential)
2.6 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMPONENTS APPLICABLE TO THE REQUEST:
2.7 Property Rights: Staff reviewed the five checklist criteria set forth by the Attorney General in the
"Idaho Regulatory Takings Act Guidelines" and did not answer yes to any of the criteria.
2.8 School Facilities and Transportation: The Caldwell and Vallivue School Districts were notified of the
request through mailing of the public hearing notice on February 21, 2003.
2.9 Land use: Zoning Ordinance No. 1451, Section 10-02-02, allows an office in an R-3 (High Density
Residential) zone through a special use permit approval process.
2.10 Parking: Zoning Ordinance No. 1451, Section 10-02-05, Off Street Parking and Loading Standards
states that an office requires 1 space for every 350 square feet of office space. The Applicant's site
plan shows 4 spaces, which meets this requirement. (1349 ± 350 = 4) (see A-9)
2.11 Public Services, Utilities and Facilities: In a memo dated February 24, 2003, the Engineering
Department offers the following comments:
Page 2 of 7
Public Hearing of March 12,2003
1. Currently there is a 25-foot one-half right-of-way width along E. Ash Street. Per City
requirements, the applicant will be required to provide a 28-foot one-half right-of-way width for
the development.
2. Currently the site has two driveway approaches that have approximately 48-foot 7-inches of
separation between them. City standards require a minimum of 50-foot separation between
driveway approaches (measured near edge of driveway to near edge of driveway). Given the
limited use of the eastern driveway, the Engineering Department does not object to the proposed
spacing.
3. In accordance with City standards, the Applicant will be required to construct sidewalk along the
frontage of the development.
4. City water and City sewer currently serve this site. The nearest sewer line is an 8" line located to
the south of the southwest corner of the project site. There is an 8" water line that fronts the
property in E. Ash Street.
5. Prior to commencement of construction in any dedicated right-of-way, the City Engineering staff
is to be notified. Appropriate City personnel are to be notified in advance of all required
inspection.
6. As noted previously, provision is to be made for the disposal of stormwater drainage in
accordance with the City Stormwater Management Policy. A copy of this policy is available upon
req uest.
'7. Irrigation water for any and all Iandscapins shall be obtained from applicable Irrigation District
sources.
8. Appropriately licensed public works contractors shall perform all construction of dedicated
facilities.
2.12 Fire Protection: In a memo dated February 20, 2003, the Caldwell Fire Department (CFD) offers the
following comments: The CFD does not object to this annexation and will comment and assign any
conditions during the normal subdivision or building plan review process.
2.13 Irrigation: Pioneer Irrigation District has no objection to the development.
III TESTIMONY

accessible via the existing sidewalk. Ms. Doty advised that handicap parking was available along

Doty commented that the concrete in the parking area will be replaced, additionally, the carport will
be removed to accommodate the handicapped parking. She further advised that the driveway on
the east side of the property will not be a drive-thru but will be paved and used for one employee
parking space. She also stated that she would comply with City signage requirements.
