Summary of Proceedings

Nampa Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting - June 9, 2026

The Planning and Zoning Commission met on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, at 6:00 PM. The sole agenda item was the annexation, zoning to RS22, development agreement, and preliminary plat approval for Iseridge Estates, located at 8230 and 8054 E Ustick Road, submitted by Robert Lightfelt. The meeting included roll call, staff communications, a public hearing, and a unanimous vote to recommend approval.

Consent Calendar

  • The consent agenda was adopted by motion (Morgan, second by Turner) without opposition. No items were pulled for separate discussion.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • Three registered speakers and one additional speaker provided testimony:
    • Scott Fackerel (8294 E Timberlake St) expressed concerns about fencing along the Grove Branch Lateral canal, asking how the development would protect against access from the canal. He did not state a clear for or against position.
    • David Smith (86 S Bancroft Way) spoke in support after discussing the project with the applicant.
    • Angela Gibson (address not given) expressed support, preferring larger lots with nicer homes over dense tract housing.
    • Tyler Bozier (2933 E Snake River Dr) spoke in support, noting that Ustick Road is being improved to a five-lane road and that the project's single entrance and private road maintenance agreement are appropriate.
  • No other members of the public wished to speak.

Discussion Items

  • Staff Presentation: Principal Planner Christy Watkins presented the application. The 10.5-acre site is currently enclaved within city limits under Canyon County jurisdiction. The proposed RS22 zoning (minimum 22,000 sq ft lots) matches the comprehensive plan's low-density residential designation. The plat includes two existing front lots and seven new lots to the rear, ranging from 34,850 to 51,056 sq ft, with a density of 1.01 dwelling units per acre. No traffic impact study was required. Utilities (sewer, water, pressurized irrigation) will be extended. A 10-foot side path will be installed along Ustick. The development will use a private common driveway with a turnaround, maintained by an HOA. Conditions of approval include commitments for police and fire staffing (0.03 additional officers, 0.01 support staff, 0.03 firefighter positions) and engineering requirements.
  • Commissioner Kehoe asked about the private road: it will be a common driveway with a street name, owned and maintained by the development. If the owners later request city maintenance, it would need to be brought up to city standards.
  • Applicant Response: Robert Lightfelt addressed the fencing concern, stating that privacy fencing or three-rail fencing along the canal will be included to prevent unauthorized access.

Key Outcomes

  • Public Hearing: Motion to close public hearing (Turner, second by Morgan) passed unanimously.
  • Motion to Approve: Commissioner Morgan moved to recommend approval of the annexation, zoning, development agreement, and preliminary plat with the recommended conditions of approval and proposed findings. Commissioner Turner seconded. The roll call vote was unanimous: Garner Miller (yes), Chaffer (yes), Turner (yes), Kehoe (yes), Morgan (yes), Copeland (yes), Bean (yes). The motion carried.
  • Adjournment: Motion to adjourn (mover/seconder not specified) passed unanimously.

Note: The meeting date is confirmed as June 9, 2026, based on the chair's opening statement. No agenda or minutes were available for cross-reference.
