Agreement and Conditional Use Permit (AZ21-13/DA-21-19/CU-21-04) – Tabled from August 17, 2021.
Chadwick opened the Public Hearing and read the rules for hearings. Chadwick asked the Council if they had
any ex parte communication. All members present indicated that they did not.
APPLICANT PRESENTATION
Mary Wall with Breckon Land Designs, 6661 N Glenwood Road, Boise, Idaho
Grace Assisted Living Facility and a Transitional Living Facility will be located at Bent Lane and Hwy 44. This will
have a memory care unit and independent living quarters on site and built in two phases. Phase 1 will include
road improvements and the Assisted Living Facility. Phase 2 would include the backage road and additional
frontage along Bent Lane. The independent living cottages would be part of phase 2.
Wall presented several pictures of current Grace facilities. She presented images of the independent living
cottages. They are all one level and connected units. There are no other facilities in the area. Wall said they
agree with all the suggested conditions of approval from all the agencies that have provided input.
Commercial lots on the property would come to the City under separate applications.
Keyes asked for the height of the building. Wall stated she did not have that information. Keyes stated the city
code has a 35-foot-high maximum height. He also asked about private roads in the development and why they
are not building to city street standards. Wall said this is a private development and given the intended use,
larger roads are not necessary.
Salmonsen asked about parking. Wall indicated the units will have garages and there will be parking in the
driveways. Wall said there was not any on-street parking planned and parking around the facility could be used
for visitors.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY
Chris Spallino 22009 Bent Lane
Said the applicants have been easy to work with and very professional. He is a little concerned about all the
annexation around him and hopes that will be cleaned up at some point. He is concerned that he has weak
internet, and the building may impact that. He does not like the proposed backage road being next to his
property.

City Hall - 10769 W State Street, Star, Idaho
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
7:00 PM
Nielsen asked him to clarify his annexation concern. Mr. Spallino expressed concerned about all properties
adjacent to him being annexed into the city and what confusion there would be about his property being an
island that is not part of the city.
Mark Crohn 6808 Saddleman Ranch Court
Mr. Crohn wanted to see the project before he made any decisions. His property is directly west of the site. He
felt the public hearing sign was not placed well. His house faces the site, and he has concerns about parking
and lights on the facilitye. He was also concerned about how HB 389 impacts the ramifications of growth and
infrastructure.
Chadwick referred Mr. Crohn to his budget proposal and how growth is paid for. Chadwick advised Mr. Crohn
of the sewer lift station and how policing works within Ada and Canyon County.
Tammy Crohn 6808 Saddleman Ranch Court
Mrs. Crohn raised concerns about placement of the public hearing sign. He is generally positive about the
development since they have had family members use these types of facilities. She would like to keep the area
as rural and uncongested as possible. She is concerned about zoning rules and small side yard setbacks.
Chadwick advised Mrs. Crohn to keep her comments to this hearing only. Chadwick suggested she contact him
directly about her concerns not relating to this hearing.
Dustin Helmick 6375 Bud Lane
Mr. Helmick’s family has owned the property south of the applicant for some time. He is concerned about
congestion, the roads leading in and out of town, the rezone, and if this gets approved and not built, could
another multi-family development come in.
Chadwick described the traffic improvements planned for Highway 16 and he proportionate share agreements
in place. This is the first time a zoning has come before the city, anything else would have been done through
the county. Chadwick, Nielsen, and Keyes explained the City’s Comprehensive Plan and planned traffic
improvements.
APPLICANT REBUTTAL
Mary Wall offered rebuttal. The back property line will be fenced and dust during construction will be mitigated
as much as possible. The backage road will be built to CHD4 requirements and the lights will be built to City of
Star requirements and comply with the dark sky initiative. Parking requirements will be met and if they can add
extra, they will do that.
Chadwick asked if the fence could be a part of the Development Agreement. Chadwick stressed the need for
dust control and for the applicant to work with City staff on lighting styles and locations.

STAR CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
City Hall - 10769 W State Street, Star, Idaho
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
7:00 PM
Nielsen agreed with Chadwick the project should adhere to the City’s Dark Sky initiative.
Keyes asked that the mitigation of fugitive lighting be included in the Development Agreement and wanted the
ability to re-open the Development Agreement when the commercial property is developed. Chadwick asked
Yorgason how this could be done, Yorgason said it could be done by having a place holder that could amend
this agreement when the commercial property was ready to be developed. Keyes asked that the roads marked
A and B be built to city standards and dedicated as public roads.
Salmonsen asked about parking and if the common lot could be turned into extra parking space. She is
concerned about the lack of parking spaces and wants to see at least five additional spaces. Salmonsen pointed
out how close the fire station was and how this location is very ideal for this type of facility.
COUNCIL DELIBERATION
Hershey said he is for the development with the conditions stated. Nielsen said this is in compliance with our
comprehensive plan and a great addition to our city.
Nielsen moved to approve with conditions; Roads A and B to be public roads and built to City of Star
standards, the Development Agreement will include a fence along the backage road, no fugitive lighting
allowed, the development agreement can be re opened when future commercial uses are identified,
and five additional parking spaces will be added. Hershey seconded the motion. Voice vote indicated all
members present signifying aye. Motion carried.
Agenda Item 7C) – PUBLIC HEARING – Cherished Estates Subdivision Rezone, Development Agreement and
Preliminary Plat (RZ-21-01/DA-21-07/PP-21-08) Tabled from July 6, 2021.
Chadwick asked the Council if they had any ex parte communication. All members present indicated that they
did not. Mayor Chadwick reopened the public hearing.
APPLICANT PRESENTATION
Louis Parsons – Project Manager with Sterling Development – 1159 E Iron Eagle Drive – Eagle Idaho
Mr. Parsons introduced the revised site plan, with 100 lots, below 2.5 units per acre. They have left the park
and detention pond in the previous locations and the street configuration as was originally presented.
The applicant has reduced the number of lots and made them larger. The original plan submitted started with
180 units, was reduced to 153. The applicant proposed 136 units to the neighbors, but after a July 6th
discussion with them, they are proposing 100 lots. The average lot size is now 9,900 square feet. They have
19.87% of the site in open space and 14.69% in qualified open space, both exceeding current city code. They
meet or exceed all tree requirements. They have two large parks proposed. Average lot size in the Lobo Creek

7:00 PM
Subdivision to the north is approximately 8,030 square feet; Hunter’s Creek to the west is 7,776 square feet;
Waterview to the south is 9,200 square feet and Crowfoot to the east is 10,280 square feet. They are proposing
9,900 square feet as the average lot size. They feel this development fits well with the surrounding
developments.
Mr. Parsons presented a slide depicting all of the amenities being proposed and stressed the connectivity with
other developments and the community.
Sterling Development acknowledged they have received input from all agencies and accept the terms of their
comment letters. They agree to the all the findings in the September 7, 2021, Staff Report presented by City
Staff.
Sterling Development continues to monitor ground water and data is being incorporated into their civil design.
They received agency letters that were not previously included as directed by the Council. They have agreed to
match product on the south side and the east side to ensure proposed single-story homes will be adjacent to
existing single-story homes and proposed two story will match current two-story homes. The proposed
setbacks for homes on the south and east side of the development would create space between existing homes.
The current property will sit about a foot lower than the developments to the south and east.
The applicant agrees to block off construction access to W. Shumard Dr and N. Cygnus Place until construction
activities are completed to help with the neighbors traffic concerns.
The homes will be between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet and probably more single level given the larger lot
sizes.
Nielsen thanked the applicant for making changes to their previous presentations. Nielsen asked about blocking
off roads with City approval. Mr. Parsons explained how they can route traffic for construction and try to
prevent traffic in the neighboring developments. Nielsen asked if the City has the ability to provide this type of
approval. Nickel advised that until the roads are dedicated to the county, the developer can control access.
Chadwick asked about emergency access and Nickel stated the developer would have to work with Star Fire on
access. Salmonsen asked about the “No Construction” traffic signs she has seen in other developments. Nickel
said the developer can put them up but are not enforceable. Hershey asked why the two lots that face Shumard
Drive cannot be combined into one lot; they look out of place with the others. Parsons said they can
accommodate and would have the access off Cygnus Way be the same as the other four lots on that block.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY
Larry Tavares 1321 N Red Ash
Mr. Tavares asked if there would be a walkway in the back for property residents, or will they use the walkways

STAR CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES

7:00 PM
in Lake Pointe. Would like the applicant to move the park and pond to the west and away from the front of the
development. Tavares explained he is concerned about parking and traffic. He came from a small town in
California and feels Star is growing too fast.
Dennis Wells 10355 W Shumard
Mr. Wells wanted to talk about safety. The main amenity is in the north of the development which leaves most
of the homes to the south, and traffic will flow out to the east through Lake Pointe and will bring cars by the
playground in Lake Pointe causing a safety concern. He suggests that the parks be moved to the south so
residents would go out through their own development to the north.
Barry Pasco 1285 N Red Ash
Mr. Pasco thanked Sterling Homes for bringing down the density. He feels the park location is a safety concern
and should be moved. He would like all single-story homes on the south and east boundary. He is concerned
about pathways and having people from outside of their community getting injured and being a liability to Lake
Pointe. He would like to see the elevations and landscape plans for the proposed homes. He does not agree to
rezoning this area to a higher density.
Salmonsen asked if liability wasn’t an issue, would he be ok with the connections. Mr. Pasco stated that if these
pathways were connected, he would not use the Cherished pathway.
Deanna Johnson, 1345 N Glen Aspen Avenue
Mrs. Johnson requests the rezone be denied, citing density. Johnson read from a prepared statement, which
was given to the City Council, Mayor and Applicant; among other things the rezone is not harmonious with the
surrounding developments. Mrs. Johnson stated this development is not aligned with the comprehensive plan.
She wants to see product examples, elevations, and designs etc.
Keyes mentioned the future land use map and noted not one person objected to the future land use plan and
asked about why no one objected to the comprehensive plan when it was discussed. Ms. Johnson stated that
Lake Pointe was not here yet. Keyes stated that the future land use map is in the public domain and the Lake
Pointe realtors/buyers could have accessed it to make decisions before they bought in Lake Pointe.
Salmonsen asked about the harmony of the surrounding neighborhoods and questioned how this does not
match. Nielsen also asked what is inconsistent with the plan.
Ms. Johnson staid Lake Pointe is R-2, so the application should remain R-2. Salmonsen noted that the zoning of
the subdivision to the north is R-4, to the south is R-4, and to the west is R-2. She stated she is still confused
how about how this development is not in harmony with the surrounding subdivisions.
Rick Anderson – 10205 W Golden Rain Street

City Hall - 10769 W State Street, Star, Idaho
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
7:00 PM
Mr. Anderson thanked the developer for the work they did and feels they are very responsive. Anderson
pointed out two lots that he believed could be combined into one lot along the stub into Lake Pointe. These
are the same two lots that Hershey noted earlier. Anderson wants a speedbump on the connection between
the two developments. He asked about a right in and right out to limit traffic in and out from Cherished Estates.
Anderson stated he appreciates the conversations that have taken place and the developer has done what they
were asked. He would like to see an option with lower density. Anderson asked if all of these homes would be
for sale or rent?
Kate Bartles – 3509 W Bovaria
Mrs. Bartles said she is representing several Lake Pointe residents. Bartles feels the developer did listen to their
issues and made adjustments. She would also like to see the lake moved farther south, and the covenants,
conditions, and restrictions (CCR’s) for the development. Nielsen stated that the Fair Housing Act governs rental
properties and if someone buys a home and decides to rent it, the city cannot prevent the property owner from
renting the property. Nielsen also asked about the travel of Lake Pointe residents through the Yellowstone
development and if she was aware how many of her clients used that access. Bartles explained she did not
have details on that.
APPLICANT REBUTTAL
Parsons believes pedestrian connectivity is important, and they would allow the community to connect,
regardless of the connectivity of the Lake Pointe development. At the July 6th meeting, there was not much
discussion about the location of the pond and park. They chose the location to create a nice entry to the
development. Parsons does not see how the location will dictate trip distribution. They used the Traffic Impact
Study and staff recommendations. They presented elevations at the last meeting and did not present new
elevations at this current meeting because the lot sizes increased considerably. The developers plan to do
elevations that will fit on larger lots. They have examples of custom homes in the Legacy Development in Eagle.
The product will be designed based on the lot sizes approved. The proposed density of 2.5 is at the low end of
the 3-5 units allowed in the city’s comprehensive plan so he feels it is appropriate. The developer is not building
homes for rent and plans to sell the units. They cannot control if someone buys a home and then chooses to
rent it. CCRs are done at the final plat and are premature at this point. The developers will disclose everything
and follow all conditions of approval.
Nielsen asked if the developer could address the speed bump question. Parsons answered by stating that traffic
calming would have to be approved by ACHD, but they would explore any options available. Since the existing
development has a stubbed road, ACHD will more than likely want that road connected. Nielsen explained he
desires the developer to explore any traffic calming measure that can be done at the development.
Hershey asked if the four-way intersection in the development is required to have a four-way stop. Parsons
said he believed Hershey was correct however, this is an ACHD requirement. Keyes stated that in his
subdivision a 3-way intersection became a 4-way intersection and stop signs were added.

City Hall - 10769 W State Street, Star, Idaho
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
7:00 PM
Keyes addressed concerns about parking along Floating Feather Road. He wonders why the park cannot be
moved farther south and asked if the developer is willing move the park farther south and suggested he would
make it a condition of approval. Parsons said he would have to get approval to make this change. Nielsen wants
the tree lined entrance to remain even if the park is moved.
Chadwick asked about life safety stations, Parsons said they have been added to the ponds.
Salmonsen asked if the developer was asking for setback waivers. Parsons said they were not. Salmonsen
supports moving the park south and asked about the Floating Feather frontage being weed abated.
Chadwick closed the public hearing.
COUNCIL DELIBERATION
Nielsen thanked the public for providing testimony. He feels this is a good addition to the area. The developer
could have developed he project as an R-2 without any input from the city, but they chose to come before the
Council, and they were able to collaborate on a design that is ultimately better for the City of Star. He would
prefer to see the larger setbacks that are required on two-story homes even on one-story units. Keyes talked
about the importance of the development agreement and what the community gets when a development
agreement is in place.
Nielsen moved to approve the Cherished Estates Rezone and Preliminary Plat with conditions; the
developer will work with City Staff to move the park, the developer combines lots 1 and 2 of block 8
into a single lot, the developer will work with ACHD on traffic calming measures on the road that
connects to Lake Pointe, the developer will match single story homes on the south of the property with
neighboring developments, the developer will provide a pathway easement on the south and west
boundary of the property and construction traffic is controlled and / or limited to the developments to
the east and south. Nickel will create a condition for the southern pathway in the findings and facts for
the Council to approve. Keyes seconded the motion. Voice vote indicated all members present signifying
aye. Motion carried.
The Council took a 5-minute break at 9:21 pm.
Chadwick reconvened the meeting at 9:26 pm with all previous members being present.
Agenda Item 7D) – PUBLIC HEARING - Whitener Property Development Agreement Modification (DA-20-16)
Chadwick asked the Council if they had any ex parte communication. All members present indicated that they
did not. Mayor Chadwick reopened the public hearing.
APPLICANT PRESENTATION
Jeff Likes with ALC Architecture at 1119 E State Street, Eagle, Idaho. Representing 10206 West State Street LLC
Applicant requests a modification to the development agreement in place on this parcel. Original agreement

RBF/jmq/mh
STAR CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
City Hall - 10769 W State Street, Star, Idaho
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
7:00 PM
called for 20 residential units on the north side of the property. They are proposing an increase of residential
units to 30 total. Commercial would remain on the southern portion of the property along State Street. They
would like all property north of the proposed backage road to be residential. Studies and experience show that
commercial that far from a main road is hard to lease. Residential units will be two story townhomes with
enclosed garages. The units will be approximately 1900 square feet in size. Developer intends to start the two
commercial buildings along State Street as soon as the entitlement process is complete.
Keyes asked if they had tenants lined up for the commercial units. Likes said they are in discussion with several,
but no one is in contract. Keyes read from the comprehensive plan about live/work and having a residential
component in the Central Business District zone. He asked how increasing the residential is beneficial for Star.
Likes said he is offering more commercial along State Street than the current development agreement and is
asking for the additional residential as a tradeoff.
Nielsen said the original development agreement was a compromise and asked about putting residential on
top of the commercial buildings along State Street. Likes said the developer is already over the
residential/commercial mix and that Nielsen’s asking for more residential would further skew that proportion.
Salmonsen asked about the whole property being commercial on the bottom and residential on the top.
Nielsen said having an empty lot in our downtown core is not desirable and many developers have passed on
this property given the constraints of the development agreement. Likes said units that get farther from State
Street lack visibility and are harder to lease. If all first story was commercial, then the economics would not
make sense. Likes clarified that all of the townhomes would have live/work capability, but the units that face
First Street would have a separate entrance off First Street.
Salmonsen said a workshop had been held on this property and the desire was to have more commercial as
called for in the current development agreement calls for.
Hershey said he likes the footprint of the current proposal better than the original presentation. Hershey asked
what was driving the addition of the second floor to the commercial space. Likes said they are seeing an
increase in clients wanting two-story offices or restaurants with roof top dining options. Not all four building
will be two-story, the goal is to pick up an additional 10,000 square feet of commercial space.
Chadwick asked if the original development agreement included proportionate share. Nickel said it was in place
before that agreement was approved, however it does include building First Street and $25,000 towards the
cost of the light at Seneca Springs.
Salmonsen asked about the status of First Street. Chadwick said this would be the initial development to build
the first phase.

7:00 PM
Keyes asked about parking along First Street and if ACHD has weighed in on this. Likes stated he has not yet
talked to ACHD, but in his experience this is an allowed use.
Salmonsen asked if the residential portion would come back as a preliminary plat review. Nickel stated it would.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY
No one signed up to testify publicly. Five members of the public signed in support of the application. Chadwick
asked if any of them wished to testify. They all declined.
APPLICANT REBUTTAL
Keyes asked what the final commercial square footage would be. Likes said 33,300 square feet. Keyes liked that
this project would increase our commercial to residential ratio and thinks the Central Business District is a good
location type of project.
Chadwick spoke about the architectural overlay and if the development would agree to work within the city’s
proposed standards. Likes said they have already talked about using the materials that Star is proposing and
the developer would work with Staff on the materials and new guidelines.
Nickel said if the city were to put a condition of approval with a minimum commercial square footage, the
applicant could always increase the bottom commercial and top residential as long as the commercial space is
the same.
Nielsen wants the development to be consistent and believed it looked really good given the high visibility of
the location. Likes said if the Council wanted to require two buildings to be two-story commercial, he asked if
it could be the back two buildings to keep the front buildings visible. Nielsen is concerned that the proposal
does not meet the Central Business District goals.
Salmonsen believes it does meet the goals of the Central Business District and the density being close to
services makes sense.
Keyes asked if adding ten residential units would require another amenity. Nickel said it would not, and the
applicant is actually providing more open space than originally proposed. Nickel this developer is providing a
clearer vision and more detail than previously presented.
Chadwick closed the public hearing and moved to Council Deliberation.
COUNCIL DELIBERATION
Keyes feels this application fits within the Central Business District goals and is happy to make a motion to
approve.
