Required Findings for Zoning Amendment
STANDARDS FOR ZONING AMENDMENT
The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning
amendment in terms of the following standards and shallfind adequate evidence answering thefollowing
questions about the proposed zoning amendment (11-15-11):
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 requested General Commercial (C-G) zoning designation is in
accord with the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map, which delineates
the subject property as "Mixed Use-Regional". Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-7-
2.1. states the purpose of the C-G district is "to provide for a review of the impact
of proposed commercial uses which are auto and service oriented and are located
in close proximity to major highway or arterial streets; to fulfill the need of travel-
related services as well as retail sales for the transient and permanent motoring
public." The following Comprehensive Plan policies also support the annexation
and proposed retail/fuel service use:
. "Permit new. . .commercial developments only where urban
services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval
and development is contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, pg. 26,
Goal I, Obj. A, #6)
Sanitary sewer, municipal water, solid waste and other services
exist to this area of Meridian.
.
"Require all new parking lots to provide landscaping in internal
islands." (Chapter V, pg. 43, Goal Ill, Obj. D, #3)
The Site Plan submitted with the CUP application for this
property shall show internal planters, as required.
.
"Locate new community commercial areas on arterials. , .near
residential areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining
residential areas." (Chapter VII, pg. 43, Goal Ill, Obj. D, #3)
The proposed commercial use is located at the intersection of a
minor arterial roadway and a state highway. A 25-foot wide
street buffer is shown along Pine Ave and a 35-foot wide street
buffer is shown along Eagle Road SH55, designed in part to
mitigate potential negative impacts upon the vehicular traffic
on Eagle Road.
Exhibit C
.
"Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial
streets." (Chapter VII, pg. 107, Goal IV, Obj. D, #2)
ACHD is requiring the applicant to locate the two curb cuts to
Pine Ave, one right-in/right-out and one shared access allowing
travel towards the west/Eagle Road. A cross access agreement
with the property at the future property boundaries will be
required so the cuts can be shared with adjacent development.
In addition. access to Eagle Road is prohibited in compliance
with lTD.
B.
Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be re-zoned in the
future;
Staff finds that the proposed rezone and accompanying development plans
comply with the requested zone and staff does not anticipate that the property will
be rezoned in the future. The area designated as "Future Development" east of the
Jacksons Food Store site is anticipated to be developed under a general concept
plan in accordance with the Mixed Use Regional Comprehensive Plan
Designation with the appropriate zoning in the future. A Master or Concept plan
for the 27.59 acres will be required with the development agreement for the
rezone to address the future of rezoning on the subject property.
C.
Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning;
Staff finds that the applicant has submitted detailed development plans for a
Conditional Use Pennit for the automobile washing facility on the property. Staff
further finds that the proposed convenience store use is allowed with the approval
of a Conditional Use Pennit in lhis mixed use area.
D.
Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned;
Staff finds that the immediate vicinity is a mix of undeveloped parcels that are
designated for a mix of uses in the future, existing urban density residential uses
(Meridian Crossroads), and property annexed and zoned as commercial and
industrial property. The southwest corner of Eagle and Pine (approx. 62 acres)
was annexed and zoned C-G (General Commercial) in February 2005 as part of
the Ten mile Development planned development. Immediately south ofthe parcel
is an industrial subdivision with warehousing/sales/various industrial uses. The
widening of Pine Ave to 5 lanes, the construction of the High School east of the
site, the signalization of the intersection, and the Eagle/I-84 on ramp are all
indicators of a need for a mix of commercial services in the area,
3
Exhibit C
E.
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 finds that the proposed development is designed in a manner that will be
harmonious with and appropriate in appearance with the existing neighborhood.
The proposed retail/fuel service/auto washing facilities are listed uses in harmony
with the intended uses in the C-G district. The eastern edge of the proposed
Jacksons Food Store development (Pine Ave western entrance driveway) is
approximately 207 feet east of the 2-acre site, requiring a cross access agreement
to be entered into. The application does not indicate potential future uses on the
eastern remainder of the 27.59 acre parcel. However, any future use will be
consistent with the existing zoning or only allowed through a public hearing/CUP
or platting process in compliance with the Future Land Use Map. The landscaped
street buffers, lighting standards and building setbacks as required by the Zoning
Ordinance are intended to ease impacts of these commercial uses on nearby
residences.
F.
Will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses;
Staff finds that the requested annexation and zoning to C-G should not be
disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses. Any future change of use on the
property that may have a significant impact on the surrounding properties will
require conditional use approval under current ordinances, and adjoining property
owners will have an opportunity to comment.
Staff anticipates that the proposed commercial use will not be hazardous or
disturbing to the neighboring uses as long as lighting and noise ordinances are
adhered to. The Commission and Council should consider all public testimony,
oral and written, before making this fmding.
G.
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
service;
Staff finds that the proposed uses can be adequately served by all essential public
services and facilities. Drainage will need to be retained on site.
H.
Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
4
Exhibit C
I.
J.
Staff finds that the requested uses will not create excessive additional
requirements at public costs for public facilities and services. Additionally, staff
finds that the proposed rezone would not be detrimental to the economic welfare
of the community.
Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment, and
conditions 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 finds that the proposed CoG zoning of the property does not inherently allow
uses that will generate activities, processes, materials, equipment, and conditions
that are detrimental to the general welfare of the community. Permitted uses in the
C-G zone include gas stations facilities, banks, professional offices, clinics, dry
cleaning, hotels, restaurants and retail stores. However, as noted above, all future
uses will require a mix of use applications consistent with the Future Land Use
Map. Future uses and/or platting will allow for public testimony and site specific
conditions, if necessary, to mitigate uses that may be detrimental to any persons,
property or the general welfare.
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 accompanying CUP application shows vehicular access to the property via
two (2) proposed curb cuts that have been authorized by ACHD and widened to
40 feet. The property owner negotiated the locations and design of these
ingress/egress points to Pine Ave with ACHD. To help prevent interference with
westbound Pine Ave traffic and southbound Eagle Road traffic, left turns are
prohibited out of the site, unless at the designated access. In compliance with 1TD
and in support of the Meridain Comprehensive Policies on access to principle
arterials, no direct access to Eagle Road will be allowed. Please see the ACHD
and ITD staff reports for more information regarding vehicular approaches and
traffic.
K.
Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance.
Staff finds that no natural or scenic features will be lost or damaged by the
project.
L.
Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City;
Staff finds that the proposed annexation would be in the best interest of the City
by increasing the supply of land zoned for neighborhood and vehicular oriented
commercial/retail uses North of 1-84. The proposed zoning complies with the
Future Land Use Map, is not proposing any variances or exceptions to Meridian
5
Exhibit C
City Code and will allow for the improvement of land at a high visibility
intersection in the Area of Impact.

Required Findings for Conditional Use
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 ifthey shall fwd evidence presented at the hearing(s) is adequate to establish (11-17-
3):
A. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and all yards,
open spaces, parking, landscaping and other features as may be required by this
ordinance;
Staff finds that the subject property, as depicted, is large enough to accommodate the
required parking, open spaces and landscaping required by the ordinance for a car wash!
convenience store and fuel service use. The minimum number of required off-street
parking spaces required is 22 (Carwash -2 per service bay (4) and Retail store 1 per 200
sq/ft (3500/200) = 18) the site plan shows (33), along with the 2s-foot and 3s-foot wide
street buffers and drive aisles. While the western connection to Eagle Road driveway cut
is actually outside the proposed annexed area, staff does not believe this is a problem
since the remaining parcel is owned by Van Auker and a cross access agreement is a
condition of approval.
B. That the proposed use and development plan will be harmonious with the
Meridian Comprehensive Plan and in accordance with the requirements of this
Ordinance;
The current Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the property as Mixed Use-
Regional. Staff finds that if the modifications required in this report are done, the
application will meet the requirements of the Planned Development and other Zoning
Ordinances. See items A and C under the Zoning Amendment Analysis.
C. 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 finds the design concept to be compatible with the intended character of the area.
See item E under the Zoning Amendment Analysis.
D. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval
imposed. will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity;
Exhibit D
Staff does not anticipate that the proposed development will have an adverse impact on
the surrounding property. However, the Commission and Council should consider any
testimony given at the public hearings before making this finding. See item F under the
Zoning Amendment Analysis.
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;
See comments under the Zoning Amendment Analysis item G.
F. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional requirements at
public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the
economic welfare of the community;
See comments under the Zoning Amendment Analysis item H.
G. That the proposed use will not involve activities 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;
See comments under the Zoning Amendment Analysis item I.
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;
See comments under the Zoning Amendment Analysis item J.
I. 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.
