Council OKs Jackson’s fuel and convenience store annexation at Ustick and Franklin with conditions
Summary
The council approved annexation and BC zoning for roughly 15 acres at the southeast corner of Ustick Road and Franklin Boulevard to accommodate a Jackson’s convenience store and fuel station; the developer and council agreed to conditions including right‑of‑way dedication and utility coordination.
The Nampa City Council on Monday approved annexation of a roughly 15‑acre parcel at the southeast corner of Ustick Road and Franklin Boulevard and rezoned the corner parcel to community business (BC) to accommodate a Jackson’s convenience store and fueling station.
Jackson’s store development manager explained the company plans to use about 2.76 acres on the northwest corner of the 15‑acre site for a fuel canopy, convenience store and parking; the remainder of the site would be split and likely sold for future commercial development. The applicant said the convenience store will have one canopy with eight fueling positions, parking for passenger vehicles and oversized vehicles, and a building design that will undergo city design review.
Planning staff recommended BC zoning consistent with the city’s comprehensive plan and told council a traffic impact study will be required when specific future development plans are submitted. Engineering staff and the developer discussed sewer timing: city sewer is not adjacent to the parcel, and the applicant proposed a temporary pressure sewer tie until the main sewer extension on Ustick is built.
Council attached conditions the developer accepted, including dedication of right of way along Franklin and Ustick per city standards, design‑review compliance for building and landscaping, coordination on sewer and other utilities, and a requirement to provide cross‑access with adjacent commercial parcels in the future to avoid multiple separate access points near the intersection.
What’s next: The applicant will return with design‑review materials and a traffic study as plans are finalized; developer and staff will coordinate sewer extension and right‑of‑way dedication prior to final permits.
