The Jerome Planning & Zoning Commission approved a Preliminary Plat for a Residential Planned Unit Development (PUD) and recommended approval of the Final Development Plan during the Jan. 13 consent agenda.
The application, submitted by Centurion Engineers for property owned by A. Scott Jackson, covers parcels near North Birch and 10th Avenue West and proposes 28 individual single-family lots, including single-family townhomes and detached single-family homes. The commission's Findings and Conclusions note the proposal meets the Comprehensive Plan objectives to diversify housing types and that the project provides nearly 23% open space. Staff noted public services are available to serve the development but that the sewer main line may need replacement at the developer's cost prior to construction.
Commissioners recorded that the proposal is consistent with Chapter 16.28 site-design standards, that traffic impacts are expected to be typical for 27–28 single-family homes, and that the development would transition to existing homes along 8th Avenue West. Commissioner Jeff Schroeder urged residents to attend hearings to get accurate information about the project, noting online misinformation. "Residents need to attend public hearings to get the correct information," Schroeder said. The commission approved the Preliminary Plat and recommended approval of the Final Development Plan, with the condition that final CC&Rs be finalized.
