SUB25-2 - Subdivision

Shoshoni Plains Ph VI - Concept Plan - Revised submission


SUMMARY: Shoshoni Plains is a Master Planned Development, with an approved Master Plan. The developers are now proposing to plat the next phase of the development – Phase VI. On July 10, 2025, the applicant submitted a revised Phase VI Concept Plan and revised Master Plan.

The proposed revised Master Plan has been updated to include the relocation of Phase VI, now planned north of LeGrande Pierre Ave., with subsequent phases completing the northern portion of the remaining master plan. Additional updates to the Master Plan for Shoshoni Plains include rearranging and resizing parcels and realigning roads and open space. The revised submittal shows Phase VI located on a 59.3 parcel, and proposes to accommodate 20 residential lots and the extension of Cahuilla Ave., Guardian Peaks Ln. and LeGrande Pierre Ave. for access. The submittal shows lots ranging from about .22 acres to 0.57 acres in size. The revised Phase VI submittal proposes 4.81 acres of park space, intended to be dedicated to the City, and 2.69-acres of open space along the western and southern borders. The project area is zoned RC-0.5 Residential Cluster and is within the Natural Resource Overlay, specifically the Big Game Migration Corridor and Seasonal Range.


BACKGROUND: The first phase of Shoshoni Plains and the original Master Plan were approved and platted in 2005. Since that time, Phases II, III, IV, IVA, and IVB, V have been platted. The Phase V Project Area was initially included within Phase IVB, however, in 2018-2021, Phase IVB was amended and that particular area was vacated, although the water systems had already been installed. During this time, the Master Plan has guided the development of the Shoshoni Plains Subdivision. The Master Plan shows total of 382 lots to be platted.  So far, within Phases I through V, 188 lots have been platted.

In March of 2024 the applicant submitted a Concept Plan for Phase VI, along with a proposal to update the approved Master Plan. City Staff issued a review memo on May 5, 2025 and the project was reviewed by Driggs Planning & Zoning Commission on May 14, 2025, where they made a positive recommendation for the proposal. A neighborhood meeting was subsequently held presenting both items to the public on June 2, 2025, at Driggs City Council Chambers. The developers have submitted revised plans for Phase VI and revised updates to the Master Plan based on feedback received from the public, staff and the Planning & Zoning Commission.


REVIEW PROCESS: This proposal constitutes a Full Plat Subdivision per §14.5.6 of the Driggs Land Development Code (LDC). Full Plat approval is a three-step process.

The first step is Concept Plan Review. For large or complex proposals the Administrator may, at their discretion, present the Concept Plan to the Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC) for review and comment. As such, the submittal received in March of 2025 was reviewed by the PZC during a public meeting Planning & Zoning Commission meeting. The updated Concept Plan application will be reviewed by the Administrator. The Administrator will advise the subdivider in writing as to the general conformance or non-conformance with the applicable code. The review may include official and unofficial comments on policies and guidelines followed by the P&Z Commission in the implementation of various development ordinances such as the Comprehensive Plan, Land Development Code, and similar plans or programs.

The next step is Preliminary Plat. Per the Driggs LDC, a neighborhood meeting is required. The neighborhood meeting for this application will be scheduled for a future date. After the neighborhood meeting has been held, the PZC will consider the Preliminary Plat application at a future public hearing and provide a recommendation to the City Council. City Council will then hold a future public hearing and make a final decision on the preliminary plat application. If a preliminary plat application has not been submitted within 9 months after the Concept Plan Review has been issued, then a Concept Plan Review must be resubmitted.

Finally, Final Plat approval is granted from the City Council after all improvements have been installed and inspected. All recommendations and approvals require public hearings except for the Final Plat. (See Article 14.1, Summary of Review Authority). For phased development, such as Shoshoni Plains, the Master Plan of future phases must be submitted with the first phase. Each phase must obtain Preliminary Plat and Final Plat approval independently.
