the City Council having received as part of the record of this matter the recommendation to City
Council of the Planning and Zoning Conunission. makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1.
The subject property is located at the southwest corner of Overland Road and
Eagle Road in Section 20, Township 3 North, Range 1 East, Meridian, Idaho
2.
The owner of record is Kimball Properties, L.P. Winston Moore, who is a
registered ageni for Kimball Properties, and he has submitted notarized consent for the subject
application.
3.
Applicant is W.H. Moore Company whose address is 600 N. Steelhead Way,
Suite 144, P.O. Box 8204, Boise, Idaho 83704.
4.
Chapter 2 of the Zoning Ordinance ("Definitions") has been reviewed to
determine if conformance would be allowed within the DA. Below is the definition of "Nursing
Home" as listed in Title 11-2-2:
"Nursing Home: A private establishment that provides living quarters and care for the
elderly or the chronically ill. "
Additionally, Section 11.2.2 also defines "Convalescent or Nursing Home, Rest Homes"
as follows:
"Any home, place or institution which operates or main/ains facilities providing
convalescentor chronic care, or both, for aperiod in excess of twenty four (24)
consecutive hours for two (2) or 11Wre patients not related by blood or marriage to the
operator, and said patients, who by reason of illness or infirmity, are unable to properly
care for themselves."

PAGE 2 OF 7
Therefore, "Residential care facilities," the other use proposed by W.H. Moore Co. to be
permitted under the DA, is ni!.! specifically defined under Meridian City Code 11-2-2. When a
use is not listed as a permitted use, that use requires a CUP application for approval unless a
similar use already listed is identified. That being said, it does not seem like a significailt
distinction between a "nursing home" and a "residential care facility." Both terms ímply assisted,
24-hour type care where health professionals are available on the premises.
The most significant difference between a standard 1-0 use/operation and nursing homes
or residential care facilities is probably the hours of operation. There will presumably be
employee shift changes and some limited outdoor activities occurring after normal business
hours as well as seven (7) days a week. Also, if the residents/patients have access to rear patios
with lights, this could create some potential complaints ftom Thousand Springs property owners.
It is believed that this use, stated in the application to comply with the 35-foot maximum
height restriction. is consistent with the other allowed uses in the "Ridenbaugh Section." Since
this section is the more restrictive of the two areas, it would therefore be a consistent use in the
"Main Section" as well.
5.
The proposed application requests a modification to the recorded development
agreement for Bonito Subdivision (marketed and approved as 51 Dorado Business Campus).
W.H. Moore Company is proposing to amend Exhibit D (List of Use Permissions and
Restrictions) of the Development Agreement, entered into as a condition of File AZ-OI-018.
Tiley are proposing to allow skilled nursing homes and residential care facilities as permitted

uses, as the Development Agreement expressly prohibits nursing homes and sanitariums in either
the C-C or C-G zone. The addendum to the original development agreement would allow
nursing homes and residential care facilities as Permitted Uses to Exhibit D. The Development
Agreement. dated January 21, 2003, was recorded on February 7, 2003, as Instrument No.
103020830, records of Ada County, Idaho. As detailed in Section 4 of the Development
Agreement, lL!!es within the development are divided into two main sections - the "Ridenbaugh
Section" and the "Main Section." The "Ridenbaugh Section", which is comprised of six
buildable lots located between the Ridenbaugh Canal and E. Copper Point Drive, is zoned C-G
but is restricted to L-O type uses and flex uses as the only permitted uses. All other uses listed in
Exhibit D as permitted or conditional are al1owed in this section only as conditional uses. While
this application specifically states the nursing home I residential care facility would be located in
the "Ridenbaugh Section", only amending Exhibit D would mean this use becomes a permitted
use in both sections (unless otherwise specified).
6.
The subdivision is 87.79 acres in size and is located at the southwest comer of
Overland Road and Eagle Road. The subdivision is split zoned - approximately 35 acres as C-C
and approximately 52 acres as C-G.
7.
Exhibit D (List of Use Permissions and Restrictions) of the recorded development

The City Council hereby approves the following analysis of required findings by staff:
STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES
The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each
proposed conditional use in terms of the following and may approve a conditional use
permit if they shall find evidence presented at the hearing(s) is adequate to establish (11-
17-3):
A.
That the site is large CIlOUgh to accommodate the proposed use and aU yards,
open spaces, parking, landscaping alld other features as may he required by
this ordinance;
Parking stalls are required at the rate of one space per 200 d. of gross floor area
for restaurants (MCC ll-13-S.B). Per this requirement, 94 stalls are required if
this whole building were a restaurant use(s). There are 112 parking stalls provided
on this site, exceeding the City's minimumparIdng stall ratio, Staff finds that the
project should have ample parking.
The proposed site plan shows a single drive-through window on the eastern end of
the existing building. There is a 7-foot wide planter proposed that separates the
one-way drive-through lane ftom the two-way drive lane coming off of Overland
Road. The drive-through lane will be able to stack approximately J to 4 cars,
before idle vehicles would block through traffic. Staff is supportive ofthe
proposed drive-through lane as it should not interfere with internal traffic flows or
traffic flows on Overland Road. Staff is supportive of the physical barrier
proposed that separates the drive-through lane and the driveway &om Overland
Road, To further prevent vehicles ftom entering the drive-through from the wrong
direction. and to allow drivers to visually see the barrier, staff recommends that
some type oflow-lying landscaping or visual feature be installed within the 7.foot
wide planter island. See Site Specific Condition #2 below.
All existinglproposed building setbacks and landscaping meet the minimum
standards outlined in Titles 11 and 12, Meridian City Code.
Staff finds that the subject property is large enough to accommodate the required
yards (setbacks), open spaces, parking, landscaping and other features required by
the ordinance.
B.
That the proposed use and development plan will be hannonious with the
Meridian Comprehensive Plan and in accordance with the requirements of
this Ordinum:e;
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the property as "Mixed Use -
Regional." This designation is intended to "provide for a combination of
c.
compatible land uses that are typically developed under a master or conceptual
plan. The purpose of this designation is to identify key areas which are either
infill in nature or situated in highly visible or transitioning areas of the city where
innovative and flexible design opportunities are encomaged."
MCC 11-8-1, Schedule of Use Control, allows for drive-through establishments
through the conditional use process in C-C zone. Staff finds that the requested
coffee shop with a drive-through is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan
and that if approved as a CUP the project will be in compliance with Meridian
City Ordinances.
That the design, construction, operation, and maintenance will be compatible
with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing or
intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not adversely
change the essential character of the same area;
Staff is supportive of the site plan design. This area is part of a larger mixed-use
commercial area. which staffbelieves the applicant has designed to accommodate.
Staff believes that a drive-through coffee shop will be compatible with other
uses/buildings in the area. There is a significant amount of landscaping being
provided (approximately 20% of the gross land area), and the proposed use is
consistent with the previously approved uses within El Dorado Subdivision.
Staff finds that if the applicant coTI\Plies with the conditions outlined in this
report. the eeneral desien. construction. oneration. and maintenance should be
comDatible with other uses in the general neilÙ1borhood and with the existing and
intended character of the area.
D.
That the proposed use, ü it Ç(mpües with all conditions of the approval
imposed, will Bot adversely affect other property in the vicinity;
Staff finds that if the applicant complies with the conditions outlined in this
report, the proposed drive-through use will not adversely affect other property in
the area. The Commission and Council should rely upon any public testimony
provided to determine if the development will adversely affect the other propertY
in the vicinity.
E.
That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities
and services such as highways, street, police, and fire protection, drainage
structures, refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for
the establishment of proposed conditional use shall be able to provide
adequately any such services;
Sanitary sewer and water are currently provided to the subject building.
On January 16, 2002, the Ada County Highway District Board ofConunissioners
acted on AZ-OI-Ol 8 I Cup-al-O37, El Dorado Business Campus. The conditions,
F.
G.
requirements and restrictions for El Dorado Business Campus also apply to CUP-
04-038.
On September 24, 2004, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held
with representatives of key service providers to this property (see end of staff
report for comments). Based on the joint agency/department meeting and other
comments received from other agencies/departments, staff finds that the public
services listed above can be made available to accommodate the proposed use.
The Commission and Council should reference any written and/or verbal
testimony submitted by any public service provider, regarding their ability to
adequately service this project.
That the proposed use will Dot create excessive additional requirements at
public cost for public faeilities and services and will not be detrimental to the
economic welfare of the community;
If approved, the applicant will be financing any improvements required for
development. Staff finds there will not be excessive additional requirements at
public cost and that the proposed zoning and subsequent development will not be
detrimental to the community's economic welfare.
That the proposed Wie will not involve B.Ctivities or processes, materials,
equipment, and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
persons, property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of
traffic, noise, smoke. fumes, glare or odors;
Staff recognizes that traffic and noise will iDcrease with the approval of a drive-
through in ills location; however, staff does not believe that the amount generated
will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Staff does not anticipate
the proposed use will create excessive noise, smoke. fwnes, glare, or odors. Staff
finds that the proposed drive-through use will not be detrimental to poople,
property or the general welfare of the area.
H.
That the proposed use will have vehicular approaches to the property which
shall be so designed as not to create an Interference with traffic on
surrounding public streets;
The applicant is not proposing to construct any new vehicular approaches int%ut
of the property. ACHD considers vehicular approaches in their analysis of
projects and has previously. approved the access points for this parcel. The
applicant is proposing to utilize these previously approved access points, one on
Overland Road, and one on Bonito Way.
The proposed site plan shows a single drive-through window on the eastern end of
the existing building. There is a 7-£00t wide planter proposed that separates the
one-way drive-through lane íTom the two-way drive lane coming off of Overland
Road. The drive-through lane will be able to stack approximately 3 to 4 cars,
I.
before idle vehicles would block through traffic. Staffis supportive of the
proposed drive-through lane as it should not interfere with internal traffic flow or
traffic flows on the abutting roadways.
That the proposed use will not result In the destruction, loss or damage of a
natural, scenic or historic feature considered. to be of major importance.
Staff is unaware of any natural of scenic features of major importance on this site
and finds that no Wltural or scenic features of major importance will be lost or
damaged by approvin¡ the armexation and zoning applicàlion. Any existing trees
larger than 4" caliper that are removed shall be mitigated for, per the Landscape
Ordinance.
