The property is located on the west side of N. Locust Grove Road between E.
Ustick Road and E. McMillan Road, Meridian.
The owner of record of the subject property is Eugene Quenzer of Meridian.
Applicant is the Brighton Corporation.
The subject property is currently zoned RUT Ada County. There is however an
application for annexation and zoning to R-8 before the City Council. The zoning
district of R-8 is defined within the City of Meridian Zoning and Development
Ordinance, Section 11-7-2.
The applicant requests the conditional use permit for the planned development of
single family dwellings, private open space with clubhouse, gazebo, parks and
neighborhood scaled commercial site for proposed Heritage Commons. The R-8
zoning designation within the City of Meridian Zoning and Development
Ordinance requires a conditional use permit be obtained for most uses including
those requested by the Applicant. (Meridian City Zoning and Development
Ordinance, Section 11-8-1).
The Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission recognizes that the proposed
application is in compliance with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan.
The use proposed which is the subject of this will in fact, constitute a conditional
use as determined by City policy.

RECOMMENDATION
The Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission hereby recommends to the City
Council of the City of Meridian that they approve the requested conditional use permit as
requested by the applicant for the property described in the application, subject to the
following:
Adopt the Recommendations of the Planning and Zoning and Engineering staff as
follows:
1. Applicant shall meet all of the requirements of the preliminary plat as a condition of
the Conditional Use Permit.
All Child Care facilities will require a CUP application and no drive through facilities
will be allowed within the office/commercial area of the project. Additionally, a
detailed list of approved and conditional uses shall be included in the Development
Agreement.
The Applicant is proposing a Community Center on Lot 1, Block 23 and a gazebo on
Lot 1, Block 9. However, no plot plan of the lots was provided nor when the
structures will be constructed. The Applicant shall state during which phase of the
subdivision the community center and gazebo will be constructed and a time, to be
agreed upon by the City, included in the Development Agreement. The Planning and
Zoning Commission recommends the community center be constructed and receive a
C.O. prior to 50% of the subdivision's residential lots receiving final occupancy. A
plot plan of the lot shall be submitted with a future Certificate of Zoning Compliance
application for the structure. The swimming pool shall be fenced. The gazebo and
improvement of Lot 1, Block 9 should occur prior to final occupancy of any lots
within that phase.
All office or commercial uses proposed within the development not specifically listed
in the Development Agreement shall be required to apply for a conditional use permit
for a planned development prior to construction.
Applicant shall submit an open space calculations breakdown, listing which lots were
included in the open space calculation shown on the face of the preliminary plat.
