REVISE CERTIFICATE OF CONVENIENCEAND NECESSITY NO. 143.
CASE NO. UWI-O7-
BEFORE THE IDAHO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION
SUPPLEMENTAL DIRECT TESTIMONY OF VERN BREWER
What is your name?
Response:
Who do you work for?
Response:
Vern Brewer.
Holladay Engineering.
What is Holladay Engineering s relationship with the City of Eagle?
Response:We are the appointed City Engineer. I am the Project Manager for
Holladay Engineering assigned to the City of Eagle.
Are you the same Vern Brewer who has previously provided testimony in
this matter?
Response:Yes.
Do you have any supplemental testimony to add to the testimony previously
provided?
Response:Yes. At the last hearing in this matter which occurred on May 24, 2007, I
am aware the City of Eagle and Capital Development reached a settlement
agreement which is attached as Exhibit 207 to my testimony. That
agreement called for the City to withdraw its objections to the applications
filed by Capital Development with Ada County, to apply for annexation
with the City of Eagle, and to provide development improvement plans
and specifically water improvement plans to the City for review.
As City Engineer, Holladay Engineering would normally be aware of the
annexation application and would be the reviewer for the plans that were
to be submitted. I have checked with City Staff and Holladay Engineering
VERN BREWER, Di-Supp - 2 -
CITY OF EAGLE - 1019.49
Staff and I have information that Capital Development has submitted an
annexation application at 9:30 a.m. this morning. Holladay Engineering
has received no information or communication from Capital Development
about its water improvement plans, or requirements for connection to the
City's water system. The City has only had written or oral inquiries
from Capital Development regarding water rights and well construction
schedules which have been provided in the City's status reports sent to
Capital Development through their attorney, Bob Burns.
As part of its work with the City, Holladay has inspected the area where
the development is to take place. As of last week, there is no construction
work ongoing. In fact, the site is a cornfield, as shown on the photos
as Exhibit 208. It will be quite some time before there will be a need for
water service. The City has provided written status reports approximately
every two weeks as agreed. The City of Eagle is prepared to provide
water service to this development as set forth in the Agreement.
The well that will provide water is in the final stage of completion. A
pipeline from that well has been constructed to the boundary of the
Lanewood property. As for water rights to be used for service, the City
has a number of resources.The City has existing water rights that can
be used if necessary. Since the previous hearing in May, the City has
contracted to purchase Eagle Water Corporation and that process is
VERN BREWER, Di-Supp - 3 -
CITY OF EAGLE - 1019.
underway. Eagle Water Company has a number of water rights that could
be potentially be used. The City also has applications for almost nine (9)
cfs of water that received preliminary approval from the Idaho Department
of Water Resources. The order approving the applications is being
reconsidered but, based on the requests for reconsideration, the City
anticipates the applications will be approved in the imminent future. The
City had anticipated that the final order would be issued by now, but, for
unknown reasons, it has not. Although I cannot be sure, based on
discussions with other Holladay Engineering Staff, it could be associated
with workload requirements at the IDWR. However, even if the order
requires mitigation of any type, the City has already arranged for payment
and implementation of any required mitigation.
Regardless of which of the above described options is finally used, the
City can and will provide water service to the development as reflected in
the Agreement.
Does this conclude your supplemental testimony?
Response:Yes.

B. SOARING 2025 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS , WIDCH ARE OF SPECIAL
CONCERN REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL
This property is within the Village Planning Area as recognized in the 2025 Western Area Plan.
Chapter I - Introduction
1.4 Relationship to Ada County Planning
The goals and policies of this plan are intended to be applied within the Eagle City
limits and the negotiated Eagle Area of City Impact The City acknowledges that the
county may not have all the tools and codes necessary to implement this plan and will
upon transmittal and review recommend to the county which county codes and
appropriate conditions should be implemented to best implement and meet the intent
of the Eagle Comprehensive Plan. It is the desire of the City of Eagle to have the
majority of the urban development occur under the jurisdictional authority ofthe City and connected to municipal services.
Chapter 2 - Community Design
5 Implementation Strategies
s. All urban development shall occur under the jurisdictional authority of the
City and be connected to municipal services.
Chapter 4 - Public Facilities and Services
1 Background
As the City of Eagle develops westward it is important to understand the variety and
availability of services within the area. Numerous special districts combine with City
services to protect and enhance the health safety and welfare of the Eagle community.
6.3 Implementation Strategies
h. Ensure all new development with in the Western Planning Area connects
to municipal water services.
10.2 Chevron Pipeline
The Chevron Pipeline is a portion of the gasoline transport system across the
United States from Alaska and crosses from northwest to southeast through the
western planning area. (See Map 4.5) At the time of construction most of the
Eagle area was rural and the depth of the pipe was shallow, less than 20 feet. As
the are develops it is important to identify the Chevron right-of-way, provide
significant seatbacks and buffers and encourage inspection of the line to ensure
development is not encroaching on this facility.
Chapter 6 - Land Use
3 Objective
The land use map and associated policies shall be the official guide for de,.elopment in
the City of Eagle and shall be implemented through the zoning and development
review process.

Eagle City Code Section 8-2A- 7: Landscape and Buffer Area Requirements:
J. Buffer Areas/Common Lots:
1. Definition: A transition zone or buffer area consists of horizontal space (land) and
vertical elements (plants, berms, fences, or walls). The purpose of such buffer space is
to physically separate and visually screen adjacent land uses which are not fully
compatible due to differing facilities, activities, or different intensities of use, such as
townhouses and a convenience store, or a high volume roadway and residential
dwellings.
4. Major Roadways: New residential developments, including, but not limited to,
subdivisions and multi-family de,"eloprnents, shall be buffered from streets classified
as collectors. arterials, freeways, or expressways, to protect residential communities
from noisy, potentially dangerous, high speed roads. The "buffer area" shall be
defined as the distance from the outside wall of the lowest story of any single-family

attached or detached dwelling and the right of way line of the roadway. The lowest
story must be screened ftom the view of any street classified as a collector, arterial,

D. DISCUSSION:
The Eagle Soaring 2025 Plan, Chapter One - Introduction, Section 1.4 Relationship to Ada
County Planning, indicates it is the desire of the City of Eagle to have the majority of the urban
development occur under the jurisdictional authority of the City and connect to municipal services.
The plan goes on to identify in Chapter 2 - Community Design, Section 2.5 Implementation
Strategies, so) All urban development shall occur under the jurisdictional authority of the City and
be connected to municipal services. The proposed LaIle\\'ood Estates Subdivision is contiguous to
the City of Eagle therefore, to comply with the Eagle Soaring 2025 Plan, this development should
occur under the jurisdictional authority of the City. The applicant should submit an application to
the City of Eagle for an annexation, rezone. conditional use permit, planned unit development. and
preliminary plat for Lanewood Estates Subdivision-
Lanewood Estates Subdivision is subject to the requirements outlined within the Eagle AIea of
Impact Agreement between Ada County and the City of Eagle. Subdivisions in the Impact Area

shall be evaluated for conformance with the City of Eagle s Subdivision Code, Title 9, Chapter 3
and Title 9 Sections 9-4-1-1 through 9-4-12. The proposed development as shown on the
preliminary plat date stamped by the City on April 3, 2007, shows lots ranging from 7 700-square
feet to 28,O46-square feet in size. The applicant is requesting an R2 zoning designation through
Ada County, which has a l6 OOO-square foot minimum lot size. Per Eagle City Code Section 9-
$, lots within any subdivision. shall comply in all respects with the official height and area
regulations as set forth in section. 8-2-4 of the code. Per Eagle City Code Section 8-2-4, Schedule
of Building Height and Lot Area Regulations, the minimum lot size within an R-2 (Residential-up
to two units per acre) zone is 17 000 square feet. The applicant is proposing 3SI-buildable lots
within the subdivision, 237 of those lots, approximately 62%, are below the minimum lot size of
an R-2 (Residential-up to two units per acre) zone. The Building Height and Lot Area Regulations
also provides for a decrease of minimum lot size in a subdivision be allowed if there is an
offsetting increase of the same square footage in open space and a planned unit development is
applied for and approved. A3 provided within this report within the Staff Finding of Facts, Section
H, Site Data, the required amount of open space for this development per Eagle City Code 9-
would be 2 215 965-square feet (50.S7-acres), which is 26.7% of the site based on a 17 OOO-squarefoot minimum lot size. This f1gl1re is based on an offsetting increase in open space of 1 386,147-
square feet (31.82-acres) plus the required ten percent (10%) open space of 829 8 1 8-square feet
(19.05 acres). The applicant should provide a revised preliminary plat showing an additional
386 147-square foot (31.82-acres) of open space for a total of 2,215 965-square feet (50.87-
acres).
The Eagle Comprehensive Plan designates the property as "Residential Two" with a density not to
exceed two units/acre. The "Residential Two" designation was envisioned to primarily allow for
single family residential development within areas that are rural in character. The Eagle Soaring
2025 Plan designates the property to be located within the "Village PlanDing Area" with the
overall densities south of Beacon Light Road to average one to two units/acre. The proposed
Lanewood Estates Subdivision has a density of two units per acre.
This development proposes features that may be considered comparable to the City of Eagle
requirements for residential subdivisions with the exception of the amount of required open space
proposed. Design elements include street sections with five foot (5') wide concrete sidewalks
separated by an eight foot (8') wide landscape strip abutting both sides of the roadways, and buffer
areas abutting all roadways bordering the four (4) sides of the development. The 35 .36-acres of
open space includes interconnecting pathways throughout the development, natural surface paths
adjacent to the large drainage ditches, five (5) open space areas larger than one (1) acre in size, a
swimming pool with a changing room, and four (4) tot lots-
The applicant should be required to place a note on the fmal plat which states that, .'Alllots andconstruction shall comply in all respects with the official height and area regulations as set forth in
Section 8-4 of the Eagle City Code" per Eagle City Code 9-5 (A) or as otherwise approved by
the Conditions of Approval within the Development Agreement associated with Lanewood Estates
Subdivision.
The preliminary plat date stamped by the City on April 3, 2007, shows the cul-de-sac street N.
Premier Place to be approximately eight hundred feet (800') in length. North Premier Place
provides access to twenty two (22) residential lots. Eagle City Code prohibits cul-de-sac streets to
be more than five hundred feet (500') in length. The applicant should provide a revised
preliminary plat showing N. Premier Place to not exceed five hundred feet (500') in length or
provide a bulb-out at midpoint which provides an adequate area to turn emergency equipment
around.

with a plat note describing the easement widths to be as so noted.
The Chevron Pipeline bisects the northeast comer of this property. The preliminary plat datestamped by the City on April 3, 2007, shows the pipeline to be located within a sixteen and one
half foot (16.) wide easement which bisects Lot 16, Block 13, and adjacent to the rear lot lines of
Lots 2-6, Block 14 and Lot 15, Block 13. Although a regional pathway plan has not been
completed for the area west of Linder Road it should be noted that the Transportation/Pathway
Network Map # 1 of 2 delineates a multi-use pathway to be located on the area where the Chevron
pipeline is located east of Linder Road. Past City Council action has required that a ten fOOl (10'regional pathway be constructed within a minimum twenty foot (20') wide common lot located
over the Chevron pipeline. The applicant should provide a revised preliminary pIal showing a
twenty foot wide (20') wide common lot to be located over the Chevron pipeline.
