Request for Zoning of 3.06 Acres from RUT to L-O by Pinnacle Engineers
(File #AZ-04-00
Request for Preliminary Plat for 8 Commercial Building Lots by Pinnacle
Engineers (Fide #PP-09-008)
We have reviewed these submittals and offer the following comments, as conditions of the
applicant. These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or
deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council:
The applicant, Pinnacle Enginering, has requested the annexation and preliminary plat approval
of 3.06 acres located at the northeast comer of Eagle Road and Girdner Lane. The annexation
and zoning application proposes a Light Office (L-0) zone for the entire 3.06 acres. After
dedication ofright-of--way along Eagle Road to ACHD the subject property will be slightly less
than three acres in size. While the Comprehensive Plan Zoning Map's designation for the
subject property is Medium Density Residential, staff feels that the neighboring commercial
development and the proposed Consistency Matrix (CPA-04-001) support the proposed zone
change. The Consistency Matrix is an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan which would
allow applicants to request L-O zoning in residential areas located along arterials and section
line roads. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the Consistency
Matrix on April 1, 2004. Meridian's City Council will hear the application on April 27, 2004.
The preliminary plat application would create 8 new ofTice lots. Lots range in size between
6,654 square feet and 32,230 squaze feet.
Staff is recommending approval of the L-O zoning request and approval of the preliminary plat
with the conditions stated below.
AZ-04-0061 PP-04-008 Swthstone 8ubdiviaion
LOCATION
The property is located at the northeast intersection of Eagle Road and Girdner Lane,
approximately''/z wile north of the northeast intersection ofEagle Road and Victory Road.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
North -Sutherland Farm Subdivision, a residential and commercial Planned Development, with
R-4 zoning, is located immediately to the north of the subject property. This portion of
Sutherland Farm Subdivision located north of the subject property will be developed with light
office uses.
South - Girdner Lane is located immediately to the south of the subject property. Sutherland
Farm Subdivision, a residential and commercial Planned Development, with R-4 zoning is
located south of Crirdner Lane. This portion of Sutherland Farm Subdivision will be developed
with light office uses.
East -Sutherland Farm Subdivision, a residential and commercial Planned Development, with
R-4 zoning is located immediately to the east of the subject property. It is proposed that this
portion of Sutherland Farm Subdivision will be developed with single family detached homes
and single family attached homes.
West -Eagle Road is located directly west of the subject property. Thousand Springs
Subdivision, a residential subdivision with R-4 zoning, is located on the west side of Eagle
Road.
OWNERS OF RECORA
Wiliam and Shari Lewis are the owners of record.
ANNFIL;ATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to Zoning Amendments, both
the P&Z Commission and Council are required "to review the particular facts and circumstances
of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the fopowing standards and shall find adequate
evidence answering the following questions about the proposed coning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff:
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a Comprehensive
Plan amendment;
Staff finds that the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the
subject property as "Medium Density Residential." While the Comprehensive Plan
Future Land Use Map does not support the proposed zone change, the proposed
Consistency Matrix amendment would allow the applicant to request the zone
change to L-O. If approved by Council on April 27, 2004, the Consistency Matrix
will be approved and adopted before the application for Southstone reaches City
Council. If the Consistency Matrix is not approved, the proposed rezone to L-O will
not be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
B. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that the
area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new railroad
AZ-04-006 / PP-04-0O8 Soutbstone Subdivision
access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed in a fashion
similar to the proposed rezone area;
The subject property is located adjacent to property which has been approved for light
office uses through the approval of the Planned Development for Sutherland Farm. The
subject property is located on Eagle Road, a major arterial road.
C. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character
of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the essential character of
the same area;
Staff fords that the requested light office uses would be generally harmonious with the
existing and intended character of the general vicinity which is commercial, light office,
and single family residential.
D. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Staff finds that the proposed light office uses will not be hazardous or disturbing to
existing or future neighboring uses if all development and landscaping ordinances are
exercised. The Commission and Council shall rely on public testimony to determine
whether the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazazdous to the neighboring residernial
uses.
E. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as
highways, streets, police and fire proteMion, drainage structures, refuse disposal,
water, sewer or that the person responsible for the establishment of proposed
zoning amendment shall be able to provide adequately any of such services;
Staff finds that sanitary sewer and water mains service is readily available from existing
mains adjacent to the subject site. All other public services and facilities noted above
appear to be adequate to service this property.
F. Will not create eacesaive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities
and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community;
Staff finds that this development will not cause excessive additional requiremerns at
public cost. Sewer and water will be extended to the proposed development by the
developer. These improvements will be funded and constructed by the developer.
G. Will the proposed uses not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment
and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the
general welfare 6y reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes,
glare or odors;
Staff finds that the proposed light office uses will not be detrimental to surrounding
properties if constructed and landscaped as submitted. Staff also finds that the proposed
use will create additional traffic on Eagle Road and Girdner Lane but is unlikely to
AZ-04-006 ! PP-04-0OS Soutbswne Subdivision
significantly impact traffic due to the scale and intensity of the proposed light office
subdivision. Cross access to the light office development to the north has been
proposed. The light office development south of the subject property will access the
subject property from Girdner Lane. The developer of Sutherland Farm Subdivision has
not proposed a connection between the proposed development to the east of the subject
property and the proposed Southstone Subdivision. No traffic study or statement of
impact was submitted with the application. Staff does not anticipate the proposed use
will create excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
H. WiU the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed
as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public streets;
Staff finds that the proposed vehicular approaches off of Girdner Lane will have a low
level of impact on the level and flow of traffic on the surrounding streets. The proposed
subdivision will not have direct access off of Eagle Road. Cross access will be provided
to the development north of the subject property.
I. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature of
major importance; and
Staff finds that the proposed subdivision does not contain any natural or scenic features
of major importance and will not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of a natural or
scenic feature of major importance. The subject property currently has one single family
dwelling which will be removed.
J. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of Meridian.
(Ord. 392,11-17-1992)"
Staff finds that the proposed rezone of the subject property is in the best interest of the
City. The proposed office development is compatible with surrounding land uses and
the development will be an asset to the City of Meridian.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATION
The proposed zone change and application of the Consistency Matrix represents a new
interpretation of Comprehensive Plan policies. While staff feels that in this instance it is
appropriate to rezone this property to L-O while the Comprehensive Plan designation is
residential, it should be noted that this interpretation is not appropriate in all situations. Staff
supports the rezone to L-O due to the subject property's location on an arterial road and the
property's proximity to proposed light office development.
ANNEXATION AND 7.ONING SITE SPECIFIC COMMENTS/CONDITIONS
1. The legal description submitted with the application meets the requirements of the City of
Meridiar and State Tax Commission and places the parcel contiguous to existing city limits.
A7rl14.006 / PP-04-008 Sowhstoae Subdivision
2. The subject property is within the Urban Service Planning Area. Essential City services can
be made available to the subject property.
p]tFi TMINARY Pi AT FINDINGS AND REQUIREMENTS
Sections 12-3-3 J.2, and 12-3-5 D read as follows: "In determining. the acceptance of a
proposed subdivision the Commission/Council shall consider the objectives of this title and
at least the following:
a. The conformance of the snbdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
Staff finds the subdivision is in substantial conformance with Comprehensive Plan text
and policies and the proposed Consistency Matrix. Tf the Matrix is npt adopted, the
proposed rezone to L-O will not be compatible with the Comprehensive Plan. See Item
A of the Annexation and Zoning Analysis.
b. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed development;
Staff fmds that public services are readily available to the lots within the proposed
subdivision. The applicam is working with SSC to resolve SSC's concerns regarding
trash collection on the property. The developer will extend services to each individual lot
within the subject property. The Commission and Council should review commems
provided by the Meridian Fire and Police Departmems. See Annexation and Zoning
Analysis Item F.
c. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement
program;
Staff finds that the subdivision is in conformance with and will not negatively impact the
capital improvement plan. Because the developer is installing sewer, water, local street
infrastructure, utilities and imgation, the subdivision will not require the expenditure of
capital improvement funds. See Annexation and Zoning Analysis Item F.
d. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
Staff finds that the developmem will not require major expenditures for supporting
services. The developer will fund and construct the supporting services. Staff
recommends that the Commission and Council consider the Meridian Police, Parks, and
Fire Departments' comments with regard to their capacity to serve the proposed
developmem. Meridian's Police Chief has expressed concerns regarding the
subdivision's access point at the north of the subject property. Chief Musser has
recommended that the access point to the north be moved west so that the northern
access poim and the southern access point for the property do not line up and create a
drive aisle which could encourage cut-through traffic. Moving the access point to the
west will help to reduce cut-through traffic and reduce speeding in the parking lot of the
proposed Southstone Subdivision. Meridian's Fire Department has submitted commems
AZ-04-006 / PP-04-008 Soutbstone Subdivision
regarding access to the property. The applicant has submitted a revised site plan which
has been approved by Joe Silva. See Planning and Zoning Analysis Item F.
e. The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to the
Commission's attention.
There are no health, safety, or environmental problems to bring to the Commission's
attention.

also identified as item #27 in the District's Capital Improvement Plan.
Eagle Road is anticipated to be reconstructed as a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter and sidewalk
within 96-feet of right-of-way.
B. .Findings for Consideration
Eagle Road -Right-of-Way
District policy requires 96-feet of right-of--way on arterial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way
allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot concrete detached sidewalks
and bike lanes.
Dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Eagle Road abutting the parcel by means of a
warranty deed. The right-of-way purchase and sale agreement and deed must be completed and
signed by the applicant prior to scheduling the final plat for signature by the ACHD Commission or
prior to issuance of a building permit (or other required permits), whichever occurs first. Allow up to
30 business days to process the right-of-way dedication after receipt of all requested material. The
owner will be paid the fair market value of the right-of-way dedicated which is an addition to existing
ACRD right-of-way if the owner submits a letter of application to the impact fee administrator prior to
breaking ground, in accordance with the ACHD Ordinance in effect at that time (currently Ordinance
#198), if funds are available.
2. Eagle Road -Sidewalk
District policy requires 5-foot wide (minimum) concrete sidewalk on all collector roadways and arterial
roadways (7204.7.2).
Typically the District requires the construction of a 5-foot concrete sidewalk on all arterial roadways.
Due to the fact that this segment of Eagle Road is in the District's Five Year Work Program, the
applicant will have two options:
Construct a minimum 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk along Eagle Road, located a minimum of 41-feet
from the centerline of the right-of-way
OR
Provide the District with a Public Right's of Way Road Trust Deposit in the amount of $5,080.00 for
the construction of a 5-foot concrete sidewalk on Eagle Road.

3. Girdner Lane (Proposed Easy Jet Drive)
Right-of-way
District policy requires 54-feet of right-of-way on industrial/commercial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B).
.This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 3-lane roadway with curb, gutter and a 5-foot wide
detached concrete sidewalks.
District policy 7202.8 and 72-F1 B, requires roadways abutting commercial developments to be
constructed as a 40-foot street section with curb, gutter and 5-foot concrete sidewalk within 54-feet of
right-of-way.
District policy 7203.4.2 states "if a proposed development abuts an unpaved street or streets the
developer shall construct one-half of the full street improvements, including curb, gutter and concrete
sidewalk plus additional pavement widening beyond the centerline established for the street to
provide a minimum 24-feet wide paved surface. A 3-foot wide gravel shoulder and a drainage Swale
sized to accommodate the roadway storm runoff shall be constructed on the unimproved side. This
street section shall be constructed within a minimum 40-foot right-of-way."
The applicant is proposing to take access to Girdner Lane. Currently, Girdner Lane is a private road.
On May 8, 2002, the Commission approved a preliminary plat, Sutherland Farms Subdivision. As a
part of the preliminary plat approval of Sutherland Farms Subdivision, the District required the
Sutherland Farms Subdivision to construct Easy Jet Drive (formerly Girdner Lane) as one half of a
40-foot street section with a minimum of 24-feet of pavement with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot
sidewalk on the south side of Easy Jet Drive within 40-feet of right-of-way.
If Easy Jet Drive has been constructed as one half of a 40-foot street section with a minimum of 24-
feet of pavement with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot sidewalk on the south side of Easy Jet Drive
within 40-feet of right-of-way, the applicant of this development will be required to dedicate the
remaining 14-feet of right-of-way and complete the remainder of the street section (including the
construction of vertical curb, gutter and a 5-foot concrete sidewalk on the north side of Easy Jet Drive.
If Easy Jet Drive has not been constructed, the applicant should construct Easy Jet Drive as one half
of a 40-foot street section with a minimum of 24-feet of pavement with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot
sidewalk on the north side of Easy Jet Drive within 40-feet of right-of-way.
4. Driveways
District policy 72-F5, requires driveways located on collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of
50 to align or offset a minimum of 255-feet from any existing or proposed driveway.
District policy F2-F4 (1) and 72-F4 (2), requires driveways located on commercial/industrial roadways
to offset a controlled and/or uncontrolled intersection a minimum of 50-feet (measured near edge to
near edge).
District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes over 1,000 vehicles
to a maximum width of 35-feet. Most commercial driveways will be constructed as curb-cut type
facilities if located on local streets. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for
driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways.
Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked
onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, the applicant should be required to
pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the
roadway and install pavement tapers with 15-foot radii abutting the existing roadway edge.
4
The applicant is proposing to construct a 30-foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects Eagle
Road approximately 210-feet north of Girdner Lane (proposed Easy Jet Drive). This driveway is
proposed to offset the driveway that was approved with Sutherland Farms Subdivision approximately
255-feet.- The proposed driveway does not meet District policy in regard to offsets, but staff does
have the authority to modify dimensional standards by 25% if the modification is justifiable and
anticipated to be safe. The proposed driveway is proposed to be centrally located beiween the
approved driveway to the north and Easy Jet Drive. There are also no driveways on the west side of
.Eagle Road to conflict with the turning movements of vehicles utilizing the proposed driveway. Staff
believes that this driveway should be granted a staff level modification due to the fact that Eagle
Road will not be 50 MPH in the future. With the large amounts of development that have recently
been approved within this area, the speed limit will be reduced in the future. If the speed limit is
reduced to 40 MPH, the driveway spacing will exceed the dimensional standards for driveways
entering roadways with a speed limit of 40 MPH.
The applicant is proposing to construct a 25-foot curb return type driveway that intersects Girdner
Lane (proposed Easy Jet Drive) approximately 355-feet east of Eagle Road. This driveway location
and width meets District policy and should be approved with this application. The applicant should
construct the driveway with a 15-foot curb radius (minimum).
5. Other Access
Eagle Road is classified as a minor arterial. Access to minor arterials is restricted. Other than the
access points that have specifically been approved with this application, direct lot access to Eagle
Road is prohibited. Notes of this restriction should be noted on the final plat.
C. Special Recommendation to the City of Meridian and the Applicant
Eagle Road is classified as a minor arterial. The applicant should be required to provide cross
access to the parcel to the north via the proposed driveway on Eagle Road. By requiring cross
access, the sites on Eagle Road will have an additional access point and should allow for increased
circulation within this area.
D. Site Specific Conditions of Approval
Dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Eagle Road abutting the parcel by means of a
warranty deed. The right-of-way purchase and sale agreement and deed must be completed and
signed by the applicant prior to scheduling the final plat far signature by the ACHD Commission or
prior to issuance of a building permit (or other required permits), whichever occurs first. Allow up to
30 business days to process the right-of-way dedication after receipt of all requested material. The
owner will be paid the fair market value of the right-of-way dedicated which is an addition to existing
ACHD right-of-way if the owner submits a letter of application to the impact fee administrator prior to
breaking ground, in accordance with the ACHD Ordinance in effect at that time (currently Ordinance
#198), if funds are available.
2. Construct a minimum 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk along Eagle Road, located a minimum of 41-feet
from the centerline of the right-of-way
OR
Provide the District with a Public Right's of Way Road Trust Deposit. in the amount of $5,080.00 for
the construction of a 5-foot concrete sidewalk on Eagle Road.
3. If Easy Jet Drive has been constructed as one half of a 40-foot street section with a minimum of 24-
feet of pavement with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot sidewalk on the south side of Easy Jet Drive
within 40-feet of right-of-way, dedicate the remaining 14-feet of right-of-way and complete the
remainder of the street section (including the construction of vertical curb, gutter and a 5-foot
concrete sidewalk) on the north side of Easy Jet Drive.
4. If Easy Jet Drive has not been constructed, construct Easy Jet Drive as one half of a 40-foot street
section with a minimum of 24-feet of pavement with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot sidewalk on the
north side of Easy Jet Drive within 40-feet of right-of-way.
5. Construct a 30-foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects Eagle Road approximately 210-feet
north of Girdner Lane {proposed Easy Jet Drive), as proposed. Construct the driveway with a 15-
foot curb radius (minimum).
6. Construct a 25-foot curb return type driveway that intersects Girdner Lane (proposed Easy Jet Drive)
approximately 355-feet east of Eagle Road, as proposed. Construct the driveway with a 15-foot curb
radius (minimum).
7. Other than the access point that has specifically been approved with this application, direct lot access
to Eagle Road is prohibited. Notes of this restriction shall be noted on the final plat.

STORM WATER MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that storm water bepre-treated prior to discharge to the
subsurface to prevent impact to ground water and surface water quality. The
engineers and architects involved with the design of this project should obtain
current best management practices for storm water disposal and design a
storm water management system that is preventing groundwater acid surface
water degradation. Manuals that could be used for guidance are:

Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District has no comment on the above referenced
application for Annexation and Zoning for Southstone Subdivision.
However, regazding the Preliminary Plat, the storm water runoff will have to be
addressed. If all storm drainage is retained on-site there will be no impact on Nampa &
Meridian Irrigation District and. If any storm drainage leaves the site then a Land Use
Change Application will need to be filed.

RE: AZ 04-005 and PP 04-006 Applications for Packard Acres Subdivision #3 by Packani Estates
DsvelopmeM, LLC
Brad,
I just mat with Stacy 1Mrick of Packard Estates Development, LLC regarding the common area proposed in their
applications PP 04-006 and AZ 04-005 for Packard Acres Subdivision PRi. Stacy presented me with a subdivision
plan that inducted a walking path, open fenarrg, and landscaping In the common area proposed adjacem
to Wingate Ln. As you know this are was of concern to me as the original plan did not address issues related to
guardian presence. The plan I reviewed with Stacy today (4115!04) at 3:40 pm does provide for guardian
presence of this common area. I am satis0ed the developer has worked to create a very beneficial amenity for
this proposal from what had initially been an item of cencem. The popoe department would recommend the
project move forward as our concerns and comments have been addressed in a most satisfactory manner.
If you should have any quesdons or need additional comment please corned me.

RE: Southstone Subdivision and Annexation Staff Report
Dear Commissioners,
I just received and reviewed copy of the staff report prepared by the Development
Services staff for Southstone annexation and preliminary plat, and I am very happy to
report that we agree with all of the Staff recommendations with one minor modification
(#14 on page 7).
The current wording of site specific condition #14 on page 7 is as follow
14. Across-access parking agreement for shared parking between subdivision
lots and for the property to the north of the subject property must be submitted."
We agree with the need for a cross access easement to provide access to the property to
the north from the collector roadway, and a cross access/parking easement for the lots
within the subdivision; however we do not feel that it is necessary at this time for the City
to require a cross parking agreement between the proposed subdivision and the property
to the north.
Therefore I recommend the following recommendation:
14. Across-access/parlung easement for shared parking between the
subdivision lots shall be submitted prior to approval of the final plat, and a separate cross
access easement for access to the property located on the north side of the proposed
subdivision shall be submitted prior to approval of the final plat.
That's it, short and sweet. If you have any questions concerning this letter or the
proposed development please feel free to contact me at 887-7760.
Sincerely,
Dave McKinnon
Land use Planner
