V. STAFF ANALYSIS
DE -ANNEXATION:
The applicant request to de -annex 0.42 acres of land currently zoned R-4 to consolidate the property
with the adjacent County RUT parcel to the south in exchange for easement to construct the off-site
portion of the collector street to Meridian Road consistent with ACHD Master Street Map. Prior to
the rezone ordinance approval, the applicant must submit and obtain approval of a County
Page 4
rezone and property boundary application to ensure the de -annexed portion of the property is
assigned a County zoning designation and consolidated with the adjacent southern parcel.
REZONE:
The Applicant requests to rezone 30.02 acres of land from the R-4 zoning district to the R-8 zoning
district for the development of 113 single-family detached residential homes.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN(https://www.meridianciU.or /g compplan):
The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designates approximately 5.58 acres of this
site as Medium Density Residential (MDR) and approximately 22.93 acres as Low Density Residential
(LDR). The purpose of the residential designations is to provide a variety of housing types.
MDR designated areas allow smaller lots for residential purposes within City limits. Uses may include
single-family homes at gross densities of 3 to 8 dwelling units per acre (d.u./acre).
LDR designated areas allow for the development of single-family homes on large lots where urban
services are provided. Uses may include single-family homes at gross densities of three (3) dwelling
units or less per acre.
The applicant proposes to develop the 28.51 acre site with 113 single-family homes on various lot
sizes to promote housing diversity. Because this property does have two (2) land use designation (not
parcel specific), the gross density is on the lower end of the MDR density range and the recorded DA
contemplated a future rezone request, staff finds the proposed development is generally consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan without a request for a "step-up."
GOALS, OBJECTIVES, & ACTION ITEMS: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to
be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property (staff analysis in
italics):
"Provide for a wide diversity of housing types (single-family, modular, mobile homes and
multi -family arrangements) and choices between ownership and rental dwelling units for all
income groups in a variety of locations suitable for residential development." (3.07.03B)
Only one housing type, single-family detached homes, is proposed within this development;
however, there are a mix of four (4) different lot sizes proposed (i. e. 5,000-8, 000); Staff is
unaware if the homes will be owner occupied or rental units.
• "Require open space areas within all development." (6.01.01A)
An open space exhibit is included in Section VII. C that complies with the minimum UDC
standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3. However, the project is located in an under -developed
area of Meridian with limited access to City parks. Further, a majority of the open space is
situated along S. Meridian Road and W. Quartz Creek Street. Therefore, Staff recommends
that the applicant convert lots 6 and 7, Block 4 into common lots to create more useable
internal open space within the proposed development.
• "Permit new development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time
of final approval and development is contiguous to the City." (3.01.01F)
The proposed development is contiguous to the City and urban services can be provided to
this development.
• "Consider ACHD's Master Street Map (MSM) in all land use decisions." (3.03.04K)
The proposed plat depicts an east/west collector street along the south boundary consistent
with the MSM.
Page 5
"Work with transportation agencies and private property owners to preserve transportation
corridors, future transit routes and infrastructure, road and highway extensions, and to
facilitate access management planning." (3.01.01J)
The Applicant has been working with ACHD and ITD on the collector street connection to S.
Meridian Rd. (SH 69). The proposed collector street is in the desired location as required by
ITD however; they have required controlled access into the site and restricted the turning
movements to a right-in/right-out/left-in only. The applicant should comply with all ITD
mitigation measures per the TIS study.
• "Develop alternative modes of transportation through pedestrian improvements, bicycle
lanes, off-street pathways, and transit -oriented development as appropriate." (3.03.03D)
Pedestrian walkways are proposed internally throughout the development and a segment of
the City's multi -use pathway system is proposed off-street along S. Meridian Rd.
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT MODIFICATION
The applicant is requesting to modify the recorded Development Agreement (Inst. #2016-
007091). Originally, this property was annexed in with the South Meridian annexation. As part of
the annexation approval, the recorded development agreement granted the landowner the
authority to rezone and modify the DA at no charge to the applicant. The amendment is desired so
the applicant can develop the property consistent with the proposed single-family development.
The new terms of the agreement will supersede the previous provisions. Staff s recommended
DA provisions are include in Exhibit VIII. below.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The proposed preliminary plat consists of 113 building lots and 8 common lots on 28.51 acres in
a proposed R-8 zone.
The minimum lot size for the development is 5,250 square feet (s.£) with an average lot size of
7,239 s.f. Four (4) different sizes of lots are proposed (i.e. 5K, 6K, 7K, and 8K square feet) for
the development of traditional front -loaded lots. A lot size rendering is included in Section VILE
that demonstrates the variety of lots proposed within the development.
Phasing Plan: The subdivision is proposed to develop in two (2) phases as shown on the phasing
plan in Section VII.C. The first phase is the eastern half of the development consisting of 56 lots.
The second phase is the remaining western portion of the development and consists of the other
57 lots. The main useable open space in the development is proposed to be constructed with
the second phase. Staff is concerned that the phasing plan does not take in account the
traffic noise generated from S. Meridian Road/SH69. If the eastern portion of the property
is developed first as proposed, the residents living in the first phase will not have the
required noise mitigation (10 -foot tall berm/wall combination) from SH 69. Therefore, the
applicant should revise the phasing plan to develop the second phase first or install the
Meridian Road frontage improvements with the first phase.
Dimensional Standards (UDC L, L-2):
The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the minimum
dimensional standards listed in UDC Tables 11-2A-6 for the R-8 zoning district. The proposed
plat complies with these standards.
Subdivision Design & Improvement Standards11( 6C-3):
Compliance with the subdivision design and improvement standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3 is
required, which includes streets, common driveways, pedestrian connections, easements and
block face.
Page 6
The proposed plat appears to comply with these standards except for Block 1 that fronts on
the west side of S. Ventura Ave. (800'+/-). The UDC allows for City Council to approve
block faces up to 1,200' in length where block design is constrained by site conditions that
include an abutting highway, which is the case. Staff recommends Council approve the
longer block face with the inclusion that the applicant incorporate traffic calming at the
vicinity of the mid -block micropath to assist with slowing vehicle traffic.
Common Driveways (UDC 11 -6C -3D):
One common driveway is proposed on Lot 29, Block 3 providing access to Lots 30 and 31, Block
3. Common driveways are required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3 as
follows: The driveway for Lot 28 is required to be located on the opposite side of the shared
property line away from the common driveway; solid fencing adjacent to common
driveways is prohibited unless separated by a minimum 5 -foot wide landscape buffer; an
exhibit should be submitted with the final plat application depicting the setbacks, fencing,
building envelope and orientation of the lots and structures accessed by the common
driveway; lots abutting the common driveway that aren't taking access from the driveway
should also be depicted with driveways on the opposite side of the lot from the common
driveway; a perpetual ingress/egress easement is required to be filed with the Ada County
Recorder, which shall include a requirement for maintenance of a paved surface capable of
supporting fire vehicles and equipment.
Access (UDC 11-3A-3 and 11-3H- :
Access is proposed via a collector street, E. Quartz Creek Street via S. Meridian Road at the half
mile consistent with ITD, the MSM and the UDC. ITD mitigation for the mid -mile access
requires the applicant to restrict the access to a right-in/right-out/left-in only access. Direct lot
access is prohibited to both the proposed collector street and S. Meridian Road. As noted above,
a portion of the collector street is an off-site improvement to facilitate a Meridian Road
access to this property. The applicant is going to exchange a small sliver of de -annexed
(north boundary) property to the adjacent property owner in order to construct a portion
of this roadway. The 50 -foot permanent easement will be constructed to ACHD standards
as a 30 -foot paved street section, 3 -foot gravel shoulders and 7 -foot drainage ditches on each
side. If a WASD bus stop for this development is located adjacent to Meridian Road, staff
recommends that the applicant coordinate with ACHD to construct a 5 -foot wide detached
sidewalk along the entire north side of the E. Quartz Creek with the first phase to ensure
safe passage to the school bus stop.
Internal local streets provide access to the residential lots. The applicant is also proposing five (5)
stub streets along the north, south and east boundary for future extension. A secondary emergency
access is proposed in the northwest corner of the development to S. Meridian Road. MFD has
limited the number of homes in this development to 30 until the secondary access is provided.
Landscaping (UDC 11-3B1:
Street buffers are required to be provided as set forth in UDC Table 11-2A-6 for the R-8 district
and landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11 -3B -7C.
A 20 -foot wide buffer is required along E. Quartz Creek Street, a collector street; and a 35 -foot
wide buffer is required adjacent to S. Meridian Rd. (SH 16), an entryway corridor as proposed.
The street buffer landscaping depicted on the landscape plan in Section VII.0 far exceeds UDC
standards. Any landscaping within the ITD shall be landscaped in accord with UDC 11 -3B -7C.5.
Page 7
Qualified Open Space (UDC 11-3G-3):
A minimum of 10% (or 2.85 acres) of the developed site is required to be provided for qualified
open space based on 28.51 acres per the standards listed in UDC 11 -3G -3B.
A qualified open space exhibit was submitted as shown in Section VILD that depicts 3.52
acres (or 12.36%) of open space; however a majority of the open space is located adjacent to
major roadways (Meridian Road and E. Quartz Creek Street). Staff recommends that the
applicant consolidate Lots 6 and 7, Block 4 with Lot 5 to provide a larger central open space
within the development.
All stormwater detention facilities counted toward qualified open space are required to be
designed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11 -3B -11C.
Open pond on Lot 4, Block 8 must comply with UDC 11-3G-3 and cannot exceed 25% of the
proposed open space lot in accord with UDC 11 -3G -3B.8.
Qualified Site Amenities (UDC 11-3G):
A minimum of two (2) qualified site amenities are required to be provided for the development
based on 28.51 acres of land per the standards listed in UDC 11 -3G -3C.
Amenities are proposed as follows: a covered seating area, tot lot with seating benches,
micropaths and a segment of the City's 10 -foot multi -use pathway in excess of UDC standards.
Parking (UDC 11-3C):
Parking for single-family dwellings is required based on the number of bedrooms per unit. For 1 -
bedroom units, a minimum of 2 spaces per unit are required with at least one of those spaces in an
enclosed garage, other space may be enclosed or a minimum 10' x 20' parking pad. For 2-3
bedroom units, a minimum of 4 spaces per unit are required with at least 2 of those spaces in an
enclosed garage, other spaces may be enclosed or a minimum 10' x 20' parking pads. Each of the
units are required to comply with the parking standards set forth in UDC 11-3C-6.
Fencing (UDC 11 -3J -7,11 -3H -4D):
All fencing constructed on the site is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-
7.
A 4 -foot tall berm with a 6 -foot tall concrete wall on top is proposed along the west boundary of
the site adjacent to S. Meridian Road as noise abatement for residential properties from the future
state highway as required by UDC 11 -3H -4D (see exhibit in Section VII.D). An exhibit should
be submitted with the final plat applications for Phase 1 that depicts the centerline SH -69 to
ensure the top of the berm/wall combination is a minimum of 10 feet higher than the
elevation at the centerline of the state highway as required.
Sidewalks (UDC 11-3A-17):
Sidewalks are required within the development in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-
17. A 10 -foot multi -use pathway is required along S. Meridian Road in accord with UDC
11 -3H -4C.3.
Utilities (UDC 11-3A-21):
Connection to City water and sewer services is proposed. Street lighting is required to be installed
in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances.
See Section VIII -B below for Public Works comments/conditions.
Page 8
Pressurized Irrigation System (UDC 11-3A-1 :
An underground pressurized irrigation system is required to be provided for each lot within the
development.
Building Elevations:
Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed single-family detached dwellings
as shown in Section VII.F. A variety of 1- and 2 -story homes are proposed in an assortment of
building materials.
Because the rear and/or sides of 2 -story structures that face S. Meridian Rd., an entryway
corridor, will be highly visible, Staff recommends they incorporate articulation through
changes in two or more of the following: modulation (e.g. projections, recesses, step -backs,
pop -outs), bays, banding, porches, balconies, material types, or other integrated
architectural elements to break up monotonous wall planes and roof lines that are visible
from the subject public street. Single -story structures are exempt from this requirement.
VI. DECISION
A. Staff:
Staff recommends approval of the proposed de -annexation, rezone, development agreement
modification and preliminary plat per the conditions included in Section VIII. in accord with the
Findings in Section IX.

8. POLICE DEPARTMENT
1. Police Response Time -
The proposed Percy development application is approximately 4.5 miles from the Meridian
Police Department. The expected response time to this area in an emergency is about 5-6 minutes.
The average response time in the City of Meridian is just over 4 minutes.
Between 9/1/2018- 8/31/2019, the Meridian Police Department responded to 41 calls for service
within a mile of the proposed development. See attached documents for details.
Between 9/1/2018- 8/31/2019, the Meridian Police Department responded to 9 crashes within a
mile of the proposed development. See attached documents for details.
2. Accessibility
The Meridian Police Department would request that IF any access to the proposed development is
off of State Highway 69 that it be limited to left -in and right-in/right-out only (no left out).
Ultimately the police department would prefer a traffic signal at the mid -mile prior to the
development construction. This would allow for safer left -out traffic and reduce or eliminate
high speed broadside accidents.
3. Resource needs
This proposed development is on the edge of the city limits. The Meridian Police Department
will be servicing Gray Cliff Estates and Stapleton Subdivision to the north when finished. As of
Page 29
now no additional resources are needed at this time. Once all the surrounding areas come on line
it may require future additional police resources in this geographic area.
4. Other comments -
The Meridian Police Department has no outstanding issues concerning this development
application.
All qualified open space provided in the development, to include all amenities, must be in an
open area in order to allow for natural observation opportunities. Pathways and landscaping
should not create hiding spots or blind spots that would promote criminal opportunities.
The Meridian Police Department will support all Community Development Staff
recommendations, Traffic Impact Studies from ITD and or ACHD to improve access, roadways,
intersections, pathways and sidewalks before the project if fully completed.

Stafffinds that the proposed zoning amendment will not result in any adverse impact upon the
delivery of services by any political subdivision providing services to this site.
5. The annexation (as applicable) is in the best interest of city.
Because this application is for a rezone, this finding is not applicable.
B. PRELIMINARY PLAT (UDC 11-6B-6)
1. The plat is in conformance with the comprehensive plan and is consistent with this unified

Because City water and sewer and any other utilities will be provided by the developer at
their own cost, Staff finds that the subdivision will not require the expenditure of capital
improvement funds.
4. There is public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed development;
Staff recommends the Commission and Council rely upon comments from the public service
providers (i.e., Police, Fire, ACHD, etc) to determine this finding. (See Exhibit B for more

Staff is not aware of any health, safety, or environmental problems associated with the
platting of this property that should be brought to the Commission or Council's attention.

and Council consider any public testimony that may be presented when determining whether
or not the proposed subdivision may cause health, safety or environmental problems of which
Staff is unaware.
6. The development preserves significant natural, scenic or historic features.
Staff is unaware of any significant natural, scenic or historic features that need to be
preserved with this development.
