COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'medium density' is deEmed as areas including single- family homes at densities of three to eight dwelling units per acre. Staff finds that the requested zoning designation, R-8, is hannonious with and in accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, which designates the land to be "Medium Density Residential" and "Low Density Residential". The 3.59 dwelling units per acre proposed with the preliminary plat are consistent with previous Commission and Council actions and generally confonn to the goals, objectives, and action items contained in the Comprehensive Plan for this area. In addition, in the applicant's cover letter (dated April 15, 2005, revised May 24, 2004) lists several Comprehensive Plan policies, all of which support the annexation and proposed residential use of the property. In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'Low density' is defined as areas including single- family homes at densities of three dwellinJ?: units or less per acre. The applicant is requesting that all the subject site be zoned R-8 (Medium Density Residential). The R-8 district allows for a maximum of eight (8) dwelling units per acre (MCCll- 7-2.C), however the design more closely resembles an R-4 development. The applicant's requested design provides for larger lots consistent with a lower density transitional area. The comprehensive plan also states on Page 104, Objective D. Plan for appropriate uses within rural areas: "Require new urban density subdivisions which abut or are proximal to existing low density residential land uses to provide landscaped screening or transitional densities with larger, more comparable lot sizes to buffer the inteiface between urban level densities and rural residential densities." Weaver Acres Subdivision is located immediately east, north, and south of the property with seven lots of approximately one acre parcels and is classified as low density residential. Lots 2-5 of Block 1 and all of Block 1 have a calculated residential density of 2.45 dwelling units to the acre which is consistent with the allowance within the Low Density Residential Designation. Staff finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be applicable to this application (staff analysis is in italics below policy): Chapter VI c.2 P71 - Multiuse pathways: Pathways that encourage use by bicyclists and pedestrians can decrease road congestion and add to the community's quality of life. The proposed off-street and multiuse pathway systems are depicted in Figures VI-3 and VI-4. New and existing developments should ensure that the guidelines laid out in this plan are adopted. Although a designated Multiuse pathway is not located on this site the applicant has propose a connection through to the pathway system in Sundance Place via Lot 17Block 11. Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services (Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1) When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the subject properties. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands proposed to be annexed in the following manner: . Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at the developer's expense. The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Rural Fire District. Once annexed the lands will be under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural Fire Department. Fire and Emergency Medical Services will be . HOLL YBROOK SUBDIVISION CUP-05-033/ PP-05-025/ AZ-05-026 PAGE 5 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-SS33 . provided by Meridian City Fire Station #3. The subject lands lie within 1.5 miles of the recently opened Meridian City Fire Station #3 and lie within the Meridian Fire Department's five-minute response zone. The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada County Sheriff's Office. Once annexed the lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD). The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the Ada County Highway District (ACHD). This service will not change. The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District #2. This service will not change. The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer no revenue loss as a result of the subject annexation. . . . Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by the Meridian Building Department, the Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian Wastewater Department, the Meridian Planning and Zoning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary Services Company. . Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action 1) All of the properties adjacent to the subject site are designated for medium or low density residential uses on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The applicant has made the best attempt to mix low and medium density lots with the appropriate single family residential products for the site. . Support a variety of residential categories (low-, medium-, and high-density single family, multi-family, townhouses, duplexes, apartments, condominiwns, etc.) for the purpose of providing the City with a range of affordable housing opportunities (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action 10) . The subject property is mostly designated Medium-Density Residential on the Future Land Use Map which identifies this area as an appropriate area for medium-density residential development. This proposal meets the Comprehensive Plan definition of medium-density, with a gross density of 3.59 dwelling units per acre. Develop policies and incentives to encourage infill and contiguous development. (Chapter V Goal I Objective A Action 8) The subject property has a unique design due to limited property width at the north/south connection and is surrounded by existing and proposed developments which would classifY for infill development. The proposed design meets the criteria for an R-8 development and the applicant has been diligent in meeting the agency requirements and providing a quality product near a mix of residential uses. Support infill of random vacant lots in substantially developed, single-family areas at densities similar to surrounding development. Increased densities on random vacant lots should be considered if: Development of uses other than single-family structures are compatible with surrounding development as it complies with the current comprehensive plan. (Chapter VII Goal V Objective A Action 10) . HOLL YBROOK SUBDIVISION CUP-OS-033/ PP-OS-02S/ AZ-OS-026 PAGE 6 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 . The proposed density, size of lots and unique roadway design will allow for an increase in density for the proposal with smaller lots under a Planned Development where the majority of the lots are not requiring special considerations within the ordinance and comprehensive plan, see also findings above. Apply design and perfonnance standards to infilling development in order to reduce adverse impacts upon existing adjacent development. (Chapter VII Goal V Objective A Action 11) Staff does not foresee negative impact on surrounding development outside of the construction phase. The site has an existing residence which will be incorporated and the size, number, and quality of the houses is similar in nature to the surrounding developments that the proposal should be indistinguishable upon build out as an attractive neighborhood within a neighborhood. Staff fmds that the proposed R-8 zoning designation is hannonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. 8. ZONING ORDINANCE a. Zoning Schedule of Use Control: Meridian City Code I 1-2-1 lists Planned Development modifications as conditional use in the R-8 zoning district. Single Family Residential uses are pennitted in the R-8 zoning district b. Purpose Statement of Zone: R-8 Medium Density Residential District: The purpose of the R- 8 district is to pennit the establishment of single- and two-family dwellings at a density not exceeding eight (8) dwelling units per acre. This district delineates those areas where such development has or is likely to occur in accord with the comprehensive plan of the city and is also designed to pennit the conversion oflarge homes into two-family dwellings in well- established neighborhoods of comparable land use. Cormection to the municipal water and sewer systems is required. c. General Standards: According to MCC 11-17-1, the City should impose any condition{s) deemed necessary to insure compatibility of the development (CUP) with other uses in the vicinity and such additional safeguards as are necessary to uphold the intent of the ordinance. Please see Conditions of Approval in Exhibit B. 9. ANALYSIS a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation As noted above, the applicant is proposing to subdivide the subject site into fifty five single family residential lots. Each lot contains a minimum 4,400 square-feet. The fifty five proposed building lots range in size from 4,432 square-feet up to 18,081 square-feet. There are three distinct areas on the site with a variety of housing types. The southern most area is designated Low Density Residential while the western edge and northern area is Medium Density Residential. The southern area has the largest lots, contains the existing residence, and meets the overall gross density at 2.45 dwelling units per acre. The northern area is consistent with medium density residential in an R-8 zoning designation with lots ranging from approximately 7,000 square feet to over 10,500 square feet. The last HOLL YBROOK SUBDIVISION CUP-OS-033/ PP-OS-02S/AZ-OS-026 PAGE 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884.5533 area is the western boundary along the continuation ofN. Arrowwood Way. The site creates a constriction and a unique constriction at this area. The lots are requested to have reduced frontage and reduced lot sizes. These lots will be single family detached products with the elevations submitted with the packet. All housing types are proposed as single-family residential. The applicant has requested all of the property be zoned R-8 (Medium Density Residential). The applicant has indicated a gross density of the proposed subdivision at 3.59 gross dwelling units per acre. This presented density is in accord with the proposed R-8 zoning district. This is allowable for the R-8 district with the Low Density area directly corresponding to the Comprehensive Plan which calculates at 2.45 gross dwelling units per acre. Please see Annexation & Zoning Analysis below. The applicant is requesting modifications to the dimensional standards of the requested R-8 zone (i.e. - building setbacks, lot size, frontage, etc.) for Lots 2-17 of Block 4. These lots have requested the following planned development standards: Setbacks Proposed Required Front Living Area of 15 20 Front Accessed Garage 20 15 Side 5 5 Rear 15 15 Frontage 55 65 Lot Size 4,428+ 6500 1.1.1 ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS: Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan and the general compliance of the proposed development with the Zoning Ordinance, staff believes that this is a good location for the proposed single family residential products. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of facts and findings. 1. The alUlexation legal description submitted with the application (stamped on 3/23/05 by Clinton Hansen, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. 2. Any future subdivision, uses and construction on this property shall comply with the City of Meridian ordinances in effect at the time. 3. A Development Agreement (DA) will be required as part of an annexation of this property. Prior to the annexation ordinance approval, a DA shall be entered into between the City of Meridian, the property owner(s) (at the time of annexation ordinance adoption), and the developer. The aoolicant shall contact the City Attorney. Bill Nary. at 888A433 to initiate this process. The DA shall incorporate the following: ROLL YBROOK SUBDIVISION CUP-05-033!

That the applicant will be responsible for all costs associated with the sewer and water service extension. Any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project will have to be removed from their domestic service, per City Ordinance Section 5-7-517, when services are available from the City of Meridian. Wells may be used for non- domestic purposes such as landscape inigation. That all future development of the subject property shall be constructed in accordance with City of Meridian ordinances in effect at the time of development. All future uses shall not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors. . PRELIMINARY PLAT ANALYSIS: The preliminary plat provides a good mix of residential products with a wide range of mid sized lots. The site complies with both the medium and low density calculation with a mix of housing sizes. The applicant has proposed a unique design for a non-standard lot configuration on a property which by shape would be difficult to develop. Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan and the general compliance of the proposed development with the Zoning Ordinance, staff believes that this is a good location for the proposed single family residential products. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of facts and findings. 1. Public Streets and Access: Connectivity CUstick Road to Washakie Street): The stub streets from Sundance Place Subdivision and Quenzer Commons Subdivision, Washakie Street shall connect to through with the common street sections and completing the midsection connection of Meridian Road and Locust Grove Road. The subdivision is constrained by previous development in the area and is bound by ACHD policies of interconnectivity. No direct lot access to Ustick Road is approved with this subdivision. Connectivitv (Curt Drive): There are no services available in Curt Drive and concerns have been raised about the increase in traffic from Curt Drive as a cut across street connection within the subdivision. ACHD has detennined a connection from Curt Drive to An-owwood Way is appropriate and half of curt drive will be improved with this project. 2. Landscapinll: Staff is generally supportive of the proposed landscaping design with the following considerations: Ustick Road landscaping shall be designed according to MCC 12-13 Landscaping and maintained by the home owners association. All common lots which will provide traffic calming shall contain landscaping according to MCC 12-13. See Site Specific Condition #7 below. 3. Open Space: MCC 12-13-16 requires five percent of open space to be set aside for subdivisions of at least five acres in size. The applicant is proposing to set aside 39,766- sq ft of the site for open space. Most of this open space is at the ends of An-owwood Way and provide traffic calming and glare prevention. Lot 17 provides a connection from the development and makes opens space accessible to all lots of the subdivision and through to the multiuse pathway. (MCC 12-13-16-3). See Site Specific Condition #5 below. Tree Mitigation: There are severallarge trees on this site that the applicant is proposing to remove or relocate. Any tree over 4" in caliper that is removed from the property shall HOLL YBROOK SUBDIVISION CUP-OS-033! PP-OS-O2S! AZ-OS-026 PAGE 9 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 be replaced by installing additional trees, being the equivalent number of caliper inches of trees that were removed. Required landscaping trees will not be considered as replacement trees for those trees that are removed (MCC 12-13-13-3). The applicant should coordinate a tree protection/mitigation plan with Elroy Huff at the Meridian Park Department. See Site Specific Condition #7 below. 4. Ditches. Laterals. and Canals: Per MCC 12-4-13, all iITigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the area being subdivided shall be tiled. Staff is unaware of the official status of the drainage ditch; it appears to be maintained by Settlers Irrigation and is considered an offsite natural feature. See Site Specific Condition #8 below 5. Pressure Irri~ation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems be supplied by a year-round source of water (MCC 12-13-8.3). The applicant should be required to utilize any existing surface or well water for the primary source. If a surface or well source is not available, a single-point connection to the culinary water system shall be required. If a single-point connection is utilized, the developer will be responsible for the payment of assessments for the common areas prior to signature on the final plat by the City Engineer. An underground, pressurized irrigation system should be installed to all landscape areas per the approved specifications and in accordance with MCC 12-13-8 and MCC 9-1-28. See Site Specific Condition #9 below. 6. Fencing: The applicant is proposing to construct a six-foot tall solid fence around the perimeter of the site. Staff is supportive of the proposed fencing. A detailed fencing plan should be submitted upon application of the final plat (MCC 12-4-1O.F.3). Ifpennanent fencing is not provided, temporary construction fencing to contain debris must be installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building pennit. All fences should taper down to 3 feet maximum within 20 feet of all right-of-way. All fencing should be installed in accordance with MCC 12-4-10. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ANALYSIS: Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan and the general compliance of the proposed development with the Zoning Ordinance, staff believes that this is a good location for allowing a unique design for single family residential products. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of facts and fmdings. I. Reduced Standards: As stated earlier, the applicant is requesting modifications from standard ordinance requirements for street frontage, lot size and setbacks. Lot Size: The applicant has requested reduced lot sizes; the submitted preliminary plat has Lots 2-18 of Block 4 below the 6,500 square-foot minimum size. Therefore, a modification to the standard R-8 lot size of 6,500 square-feet is applicable. The proposed lot sizes range from 4,428 square-feet to 18,081 square-feet. Lot Frontage: The minimum requested street frontage is 55-feet. There are 14 lots that are at 55.feet of frontage (65-feet is the minimum for the R-8 zone). Staff is supportive of reducing the frontage for these lots as it provides a practical use to these lots where the property depth is minimal. Setbacks: The applicant's submittal July 14, 2005 requests that this development have a front setback of 15'. The front setback would need additional definition as to be 15' to HOLL YBROOK SUBDIVISION CUP-OS-033! PP-05-025! AZ-OS-026 PAGE 10 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 living space only and a minimum front setback of 20' to a garage entry way. Rear and interior setbacks will be R~8 standards. Staff recommends approval of the setbacks as requested. 2. Amenities: MCC 12-6-2.A.3 requires two or more amenities to be provided as part of each planned development. The proposed amenities for the subject planned development include: The proposed open space makes up 6% of the site, 5% minimum is required and it takes 10% to count open space as an amenity. Landscaped open space means land exclusive of street rights-of-way and street buffers, except for right-of-way specifically dedicated for landscaping within a subdivision. No drainage lots, required street buffers, or canal buffers have been included in this calculation. The applicant is counting the additional landscaping along the open space lots, a multi-use pathway connection into Sundance Place Subdivision, and seating areas as amenities. Staff supports these amenities as listed and believes they are adequate for the size of the property. 3. Elevations: The applicant has submitted two front elevation drawings for the proposed dwelling units included with the PD. Staff believes that the dwelling units will be compatible with the adjoining uses, if the buildings are constructed as shown on the submitted elevations. Construction within Hollybrook Subdivision should substantially comply with the elevations submitted by the applicant. Construction materials used on the structures should be approved by the City of Meridian Building Department and in accordance with the most recent Unifonn Building Code. See Site Specific Condition #4 below. b. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval ofCUP-05-033/ PP-05-025/AZ-05- 026 for Hollybrook Subdivision as presented in the staff report dated August 4, 2005 based on the Findings of Fact as listed in Exhibit D and subject to the conditions of approval as listed in Exhibit B as attached to this report.

ANNEXATION FINDINGS: 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 tenus of the following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the fOllowing questions about the proposed zoning amendment." The following is the list of standardsfound 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; See Comprehensive Plans and Policies as listed in the Hollybrook Subdivision staff report item #7 above. Staff supports the zoning and fmds the proposal in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the future; c. Staff does not anticipate that the applicant intends to rezone the subj ect property in the future. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use permits; Staff finds that single-family residential uses are allowed within the requested zoning district of R-8. Medium Density Residential pennits the establishment of residential Uses and is designed to protect the integrity of residential development by prohibiting the intrusion of incompatible nonresidential uses. The accompanying plat demonstrates the land will be developed with lot sizes, housing types and other dimensional requirements that confonu to the proposed zoning designation. D. 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 access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area; Staff finds that recent residential developments to the north and west have been approved for development similar to the proposed subdivision, with single-family residences. Development in the area has limited the main trunk sewer locations. Currently sewer is available in E. Washakie Street via Sundance Place Subdivision. Based on the ACHD Long Range 2030 proposal, Ustick Road is anticipated to eventually be a three lane roadway abutting this site. However, Ustick Road between Meridian Road an Locust Grove Road is not cUlTently included within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or in the currently adopted 20.year Capital Improvements Plan for roadway improvements. The applicant shall comply with all ACHD conditions of approval for the site. Hollybrook SubdivisioIl EXHIBIT D .". CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 Local Streets Washakie Street and Curt Drive are ACHD rights-of-way and provide stub connection to the property ACHD and the City of Meridian will require the proposed development connect these roadways as proposed. 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 requested zoning and proposed density is within the anticipated range for a medium density urban project. Based on the Comprehensive Plan, staff believes that the existing parcels in the area (south and north and west) have already developed with similar densities and allowances for alternate products and designs are encouraged. Staff also [lids that the proposed zoning/uses can be designed and constructed in a manner that will be hannonious with, and appropriate in appearance with, the existing and intended character of the SUITounding area. The proposal meets the standards of MCC 12-13-16 Residential Subdivision Open Space which states that "common space shall equal or exceed five percent of the gross land area of the subdivision. This requirement shall apply to all single family residential subdivisions of five acres or more." The common lots provide 39,766 sq/ft of open space which is approximately 6% of the site. The existing character of the area will not change as this is one of the final infill developments in the vicinity. Staff does not find that the proposed zoning or uses will adversely change the essential character of area. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on staff's analysis, public testimony received and any comments submitted fÌ"om any other agencies or departments regarding whether this property should be annexed as proposed. F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses; Staff does not anticipate that the proposed residential uses will be hazardous as long as the conditions outlined in this report are complied with and construction traffic and house construction is conducted in a manner consistent with City Code. Access to UstickRoad shall be taken through the extension of Arrowwood Way as designed. The proposed design creates a roadways section along the western properties in Weaver Acres Subdivision. Staff has recommend the layout as proposed as all the lots within Weaver Acres are on ISTS which have a life expectancy of approximately 30 years. These lots were platted in the 1970's and staff has anticipated the need for future connections and annexations of Weaver Acres Subdivision. The road layout should be the most cost effective solution and encourage redevelopment of these properties. The Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony (oral and written) when detennining whether or not the proposed zoning and subsequent uses will be disturbing or hazardous to the existing or future neighboring uses. G. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, 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; Hollybrook Subdivision EXHIBIT D CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 The applicant will be responsible for the extension of all sewer and water mains necessary to serve this proposed development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the Public Works Department. The applicant and/or future property Owners will be required to pay park and highway impact fees. On June 17, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with representatives of key service providers to this property. Based on the joint agency/department meeting and other comments received uom agencies/departments, staff finds that the public services listed above can be made available to accommodate the proposed development. 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. R. 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; If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the future residents will be fire, police and school facilities and services. Staff [lids 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. I. 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 by reason of excessive production oftraffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors; Staff finds that the proposed annexation and the development of single-family homes on this site will not involve uses that will create nuisances that would be detrimental to the general welfare of the surrounding area. Staff recognizes the fact that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of this subdivision; 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 annexation and subsequent uses will create excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors. J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed as not to create an inteñerence with traffic on surrounding public streets; The applicant is proposing to construct one public street extension into the site from Sundance Place Subdivision and continue the extension to Quenzer Commons Subdivision which will connect Meridian Road with Locust Grove Road for further roadway connections. ACHD is supportive of the proposed stub street extensions as previously approved. The landscaping should be designed in a manner to slow traffic flow to Ustick Road and reduce any traffic to Curt Drive (the only connection for Weaver Acres Subdivision) If is designed and constructed as approved by the ACHD and the City, staff does not believe that the subdivision will create interference with traffic on the sUlTounding public streets. However, city staff would propose a design to allow parking on at least one side of the street and approved by ACHD even if the design is amended to reduce lots.

Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature of major importance; and There are some mature trees on this property. Any existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed should be mitigated for, per the Landscape Ordinance. Staff finds that the proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of any natural feature(s) of major importance if developed under these conditions. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public testimony that may be presented to detennine whether or not the proposed development may destroy or damage a natural or scenic feature(s) of major importance of which staff is unaware. L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)? The R.8 zoning amendment will provide lots that are similar in nature to existing subdivisions in the near vicinity. Staff finds that all essential services are available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not require unreasonable expenditure of public funds. The applicant is proposing to develop the land in general compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Staff does not recommend lot sizes that would be invasive to the properties to the east of the subject property but the lot sizes should be transitional in nature and allow additional residential densities and product OPportunities for the general vicinity. Subdivisions of medium density have already been approved for development to the north and west and this is a logical expansion of the City limits for an infill project. In accordance with the findings listed above, staff [mds that annexation and zoninl! of this Propertv would be in the best interest of the City. 2. PRELIMINARY PLAT FINDINGS Sections 12-3-3 J.2 and 12-3-5 D read as follows: "ill detennining the acceptance of a proposed subdivision, the Commission and Council shall consider the objectives of this title and at least the following: A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development Plan; Staff finds that the proposed application is in substantial compliance with the adopted Comprehensive Plan. Staff supports the proposed layout as a practical solution to address the constraints of infill development which has design criteria dictated by previous developments. Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A". B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed development; Staff frods that public services are available to accommodate the proposed development. (See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis for more detail.) C. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement program; Because the developer is installing sewer, water, and utilities for the development at their cost, staff fmds that the subdivision will not require the expenditure of capital improvement funds. Hollybrook Subdivision EXHIBIT D CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 D. The 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 detennine this rIDding. (See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis above, and the Agency Comments and Conditions at the end of this report for more detail.) E. The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to the Commission's attention. The proposed design creates a unique situation for properties in Weaver Acres Subdivision to the east of the property. The nonnal subdivision design would not allow creation of double fronted lots (AITowwood Way and Curt Dr). However the proposed design will allow existing lots to have access to public services and provide a path of annexation for future development. Until such a time as annexation would occur these lots require fencing along their rear yards as proposed by the applicant. Staff is not aware of any health, safety or environmental problems associated with the development of this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor Commission's attention. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis. Staff recommends that the Conunission and Council reference any public testimony that may be presented to detennine whether or not the proposed subdivision may cause health, safety or environmental problems of which staff is unaware. 3. CONDITIONAL USE FINDINGS 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 pennit if they shall find 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; As part of the Planned Development (PD) the applicant is requesting relief from the standard street frontage requirement, lot size requirement and standard setbacks, as required by Meridian City Code. See Special Consideration #1 below for detailed analysis. Staff finds that the subject property is large enough to accommodate the requested use and all other required features. Although the site is large enough to accommodate all of the features required by ordinance, the applicant has asked, through the Planned Development, to modify specific development standards for Lots 2-17 of Block 4. The narrow nature of the north south connection of the property creates a unique situation which would not have been able to be addressed through nonnal R-8 standards. Staff recommends that the considerations are approved as requested. See Special Consideration #1 below for detailed analysis. 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; Staff finds that the proposed single-family residential subdivision, with a gross density of 3.59 dwelling units per acre, is generally hannonious with and in accordance with the 2002 Hollybrook Subdivision EXHIBIT D G.

Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program This segment of Ustick Road is not included in the Five Year Work Program but is included in the District's Capital Improvements Plan. Ustick Road is identified as project # 84 and is anticipated to reconstruct Ustick Road to provide 5-traffic lanes with vertical curb, gutter and a detached 5-toot concrete sidewalk within 96-feet ot right-ot-way in the year 2015. B. Findings for Consideration 1. Right-ot-Way - Ustick Road District policy requires 96-teet ot right-ot-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. . Ustick Road is anticipated to be reconstructed to a five lane roadway in the future. Typically the District requires development abutting an arterial roadway to dedicate 48-feet of right-of- way from the centerline of Ustick Road. The applicant has proposed to dedicate 40-feet of right-of-way and is proposing to construct the sidewalk within an easement located 41-feet from centerline. Although this is not standard practice, the District is supportive of the. applicant's proposal due to the fact that all of the roadway improvements will be placed within the right-of-way and a sidewalk will be constructed in its ideal location. Sidewalk - Ustick Road District policy requires 5-foot wide (minimum) concrete sidewalk on al/ collector streets (7204.6.5). . The applicant should construct a 5-foot concrete sidewalk on Ustick Road abutting the site. Construct the sidewalk a minimum of 41-feet from the centerline of Ustick Road. Improvements on Curt Drive District policy 72-F1A, 7202.3.2 and 7202.3.5, requires that residential collectors be constructed as 36-foot street sections with curb, gutter and 5-foot wide concrete sidewalks with no front-on housing. The access restrictions for these street segments should be stated on the final plat. Unless othelWise noted, parking should be prohibited on these street segments. Coordinate the signage Program with District staff. . The applicant is proposing to construct Curt Drive as one-half of a 36-foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and sidewalk. This street section meets District policy and should be approved with this application. Roadway Offsets District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 300-feet from an arterial roadway (measured centerline to centerline). . The applicant is proposing to construct West Arrowwood Way to intersect Ustick Road at the west property line. This roadway is proposed to align with a roadway that is located on the south side of Ustick Road. This street location meets District policy and was approved by the Commission on Wednesday July 6, 2005. District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 125-feet from another local roadway (measured centerline to centerline). . All of the internal streets meet or exceed District policy and should be approved with this application. 7. 4 5. Stu b Streets District policy 7205.5 states that stub streets will be required to provide intra-neighborhood circulation or to provide access to adjoining properties. Stub streets will conform with the requirements described in Section 7204.5, 7204.6 and 7204.7, except a temporary cul-de-sac will not be required if the stub street has a length no greater than 15O-feet. A sign shall be installed at the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE". In addition, a stub street must meet the following conditions: -. The applicant is proposing to extend Washakie Street from the west property line approximately 395-feet south of the north property line. This stub street was originally approved and constructed as a part of Sundance Subdivision. This stub street was anticipated to extend with the development of this site. Staff is supportive of the extension of this stub street. . The applicant is proposing to extend Washakie Street from the east property line approximately 13O-feet north of the south property line. This stub street was originally approved and constructed as a part of Quenzer Commons Subdivision. This stub street was anticipated to extend with the development of this site. Staff is supportive of the extension of this stub street. 6. Internal Street Improvements 33-Foot Street Section within 50-Feet of Right-of Way District policy 72-F1A, allows local residential public roads with a 33-foot street section with parking on both sides of the roadway, if the amount of vehicle trips per day on the street does not exceed 1,000 and the appropriate fire department reviews and approves the street section. The proposed density of development that will utilize the internal local residential streets is anticipated to generate less than 1,000 vehicle trips per day. . The applicant is proposing to construct the internal streets as 33-foot street sections with rolled curb, gutter and 5-foot attached concrete sidewalks on both sides of the roadway within 50-feet of right-of-way with the exception of Washakie Street. Washakie Street is proposed to have a detached concrete sidewalk to match what was constructed with Heritage Commons Subdivision. These street sections meet District policy and should be approved with this application. To receive final approval for this street section, the applicant should submit a letter from the Meridian Fire Department that approves the reduced street section. 33-Foot Street Section within 40-Feet of Right-of Way - Modification of Policy . The applicant originally proposed to construct West Arrowwood Way as a 33-foot street section with rolled curb, gutter and sidewalk on the east side of the roadway and vertical curb and gutter on the west side of the roadway within a total of 40-feet of right-at-way. The Commission required the applicant to construct Arrowwood Way as a 33-foot street section with rolled curb, gutter and a 5-foot attached concrete sidewalk on both sides of the roadway. The applicant should submit a letter from the Meridian Fire Department that approves the reduced street section. Knuckles District policy District policy 7202.7 and 7207.5 and the local Fire District standards require an island within a knuckle to be constructed with the island being a minimum of 4-feet wide with a minimum area of 10O-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The roadway around the traffic island should maintain a minimum of a 29-toot street section. The design should be reviewed and approved by ACHD's Development staff. . The applicant is proposing to construct one knuckle without a center island within the subdivision. Staff is supportive of the location ot the proposed knuckle. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 5 8. Cul-de-Sac Turnarounds District policy 7205.2.1 requires turnarounds to be constructed to provide a minimum turning radius of 45-feet. The applicant should also be required to provide a minimum of a 29-foot street section on -either side of any proposed center islands within the turnarounds. The medians should be constructed a minimum of 4-feet wide to total a minimum of a 1 OO-square foot area. . The applicant is proposing to construct two cul-de-sac turnarounds without center islands within the subdivision. The applicant should construct the turnarounds to provide a minimum turning radius of 45-feet. - 9. Traffic Calming On Wednesday July 6, 2005, the Commission approved this development application with the addition of traffic calming devices on Washakie Street near the connection to the Heritage Commons Subdivision and the Sundance Subdivision. The Commission also required traffic calming devices on Arrowwood Way. These traffic devices were required due to the straight nature and the length of these roadways. The applicant should modify the site plan to include traffic calming devices and submit the design to District staff for final approval. 10.

All irrigation/drainage facilities along with their easements must be protected and continue to function. The facility involved is the White Drain (15' easement). 2. A Land Use Change Application must be on file prior to any approvals. 3. A license agreement MUST be signed and recorded prior to construction of any S .LD. facilities, or within its easements. 4. Any changes to the existing irrigation system such as relocation, water delivery, tiling, and landscaping must be approved by Settlers Irrigation District's Board of Directors. 5. All storm drainage must be retained on-site. 6. The development must supply irrigation access to all lots within the above-mentioned subdivision from the current delivery point. If the developer wishes to have Settlers Irrigation District own, operate, and maintain the pressure irrigation system an agreement needs to be in place prior to the pre.construction meeting.

The high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools throughout the district are operating over capacity. Approval of Holly brook Subdivision will have a significant impact on school emollments at Discovery Elementary. Sawtooth Middle. and Eagle High School. We can predict that these homes, when completed, will house one hundred twenty-two (22) elementary aged children, eighteen (18) middle school aged children, and sixteen (16) senior high aged students. Additional students will further compound the current overcrowded situation. Residents cannot be assured of attending the neighborhood school, as it may be necessary to bus students to other schools across the district. School capacity is addressed in Idaho Code 67-6508. The Meridian School District is currently operating beyond capacity. Future development will continue to have an impact on the district's capacity. If you have any questions, please contact me at 855-4500.

We, the undersigned, all being residents of Weaver Acres Subdivision and presently living on Curt Drive which is the neighborhood most directly affected by the above planned subdivision would like to hereby request that the concerns brought up in the body of this memo be addressed by Meridian Planning and Zoning Department prior to any approval being granted to this subdivision. The developer has requested a conditional use pennit for the Hollybrook subdivision. The conditional use pennit would allow Hollybrook Subdivision to be zoned R8. The Hollybrook development would adjoin directly to the west of Weaver Acres and directly to the east of the Sundance subdivision. Weaver Acres is an established subdivision zoned Rl with 1 dwelling per acre and Sundance subdivision, also an established subdivision is zoned RS. The homeowners of Weaver Acres feel the issuance of a permit allowing a zoned R8 development to adjoin and butt up against an established RI development is inconsistent with current Meridian adopted zoning practices for development in Meridian and impact area. If approved, this variance, in addition to being inconsistent with current Meridian adopted zoning practices, would also be in direct contradiction to the intent of the adopted Meridian Comprehensive Plan of 2002. The homeowners of Weaver Acres are in agreement with the intent of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan and with the current adopted Meridian PZ zoning practices. We feel that the development resulting with the approval of this permit would not allow for sufficient transition and buffering between and an Rl zoned development and an R8 zoned development. Therefore, the homeowners of Weaver Acres respectfully request that the proposed conditional use permit for R8 zoning of Holly brook development be denied. At a minimum, to remain consistent with current zoning practices and to maintain the integrity and intent of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan, the Meridian PZ should require that the Hollybrook development be zoned as R4. As stipulated above, this would allow for the gradual progression and transition :trom density level to density levels. We have additional issues with the access that the developer is requesting fi:-om ACHD and have addressed our concerns to ACHD; a copy of the petition to ACHD is attached for your review as welL Signature page attached.

We, the undersigned, all being residents of Ada County. Presently living on Curt Drive which is the street directly affected by the above planned subdivision would like to hereby request that the Ada County Highway District (ACIID) review their recommendation that the only access to the subdivision be via Curt Drive. It is our understanding that: 1. ACIID would allow access to Ustick via AITOwwood if the developer constructs Arrowwood Way as a standard residential collector. We would like this option to be given further consideration. (Section C, Item 7) 2. Trip generation figures (540) only take into consideration the houses added by the development and does not include the present homes on Curt Drive (23 Homes) or the traffic generated by homes that will be given access to Curt Drive via the opening of Washakie Road. We believe this access will be used by up to 40 additional homes. Per Mr. Shaun Nickel, Land Consultants, LLC, standard allowance is 10 trips per household. Based upon this figure we believe that would bring the trip generation up to 1170 per day (540 + 630 (63 homes x 10 tripslDay)). This brings the trip generation on Curt Drive trom 230 to 1170 an increase of over 5000/0. (Section A, Item 1) 3. As Curt Drive (Weaver Acres Subdivision) has existed for over 30 years we are well aware oftraffic patterns and have concerns that traffic accessing Hollybrook Subdivision through Curt Drive will overflow down and around Curt Drive bringing additional road noise and traffic flow from individuals looking for Hollybrook. Additionally, as traffic increases on Ustick Road as it approaches the intersection with Meridian Road and its 4- W ay stop, drivers will seek shortcuts to their destination and Curt Drive will bear its share of that additional load. 4. Presently, Meridian School District bus routes stop at Curt Drive and Ustick to pick up primary and secondary students. We are concerned that the additional traffic will create a safety hazard for our children. 5. The developer has requested a modification of policy (Item 6) to eliminate a sidewalk on the west side of Arrowwood Way. We have concerns that this will effectively eliminate any landscaping on the west side of the street, which will have no aesthetic value or appeal and trap debris and trash against the fence. (Section B, Item 6) 6. How will Stop signs be placed to route incoming and outgoing traffic?? 7. In our review of this application Section B, Item 6, it appears that the developer is asking to provide a less than standard entrance to his subdivision, therefore the solution for the developer is to direct traffic to Curt Drive eliminating his need to meet the standard. We have expressed our concerns regarding this in Item 5 above but feel we must reiterate that this does not meet ACHD policy or standard and do not support this change. Summary: The Homeowners living on Curt Drive are adamant that Curt Drive not be the only means of accessing Hollybrook Subdivision. The developer has a responsibility to his development as well as to his future neighbors to provide a safe as well as aesthetic entrance which will not diminish property values of the future development or existing neighborhoods. We do not feel that the present application (draft) presents the best means of accessing the new development and would like to encourage the developer to revisit the possibility of accessing Ustick via Arrowwood Way as a standard residential collector. All homeowners on Curt Drive have signed this request that ACHD may know and understand our concerns. '~l.;tO~,~,#~ .. Signature page attached.

While we are in favor of developing the land behind our property, we are against the Hollybrook Subdivision as proposed for the following reasons: 1. The proposed plat only shows a five-foot landscape buffer between the back of the curb of the Hollybrook Subdivision's entrance street and the Sundance Subdivision boundary along Weston Way. This is less than the ten feet recommended buffer for local roads by Meridian City Code 12-13-10-4. The landscape buffer should actually be 20 feet which is the recommended buffer for collector roadways since that is how the proposed entrance road will function since it is a 1400 foot straight street connecting directly to Ustick Road. Please notice that the residents of the proposed Hollybrook Subdivision have a 1 O-foot landscape buffer along their local streets. The existing residents in Sundance Subdivision should be given the same consideration. Also recent research by ACHD's Maintenance & Operations Department has shown that a five-foot landscape strip is inadequate and that trees planted in a five-foot landscape strip cause considerable damage to the curb, gutter and sidewalk, 2. Because the developer is trying to fit a street, patio home and an inadequate roadway buffer into a narrow 120-foot strip of land, the proposed entrance street is only 33 feet wide in a 40-foot right-of-way with sidewalk only along the east side of the street. This is not in compliance with the Ada County Highway District's 35-foot local street section in a 50-foot right-of-way with sidewalks on both sides of the street or Meridian City Code 12-5-2 that also requires sidewalk along both sides of the street. Even with the 33 foot reduced street section and no sidewalk on the west side of the entrance street, the applicant is still asking for a reduction in the standard lot size and only a 15-foot front yard setback. A 15-foot front yard setback will likely mean that any cars parked in the driveway will encroach on the sidewalk and force the pedestrians into this reduced street section. And with no sidewalk on the west side of the street, pedestrians will be forced to walk in the street on the west side as well. Therefore, we end up with a reduced street section with cars parked on both sides of the street, pedestrians forced to walk into the street and not enough clear distance for emergency vehicles. 3. The proposed Hollybrook Subdivision's entrance street and Washakie Street, which will connect the Sundance Subdivision to the Heritage Commons Subdivision, are both too long and too straight for local roads. The Hollybrook Subdivision's proposed entrance street would be over a y,. mile long while Washakie Street will be over a 1/3 mile in length when it is connected from Heritage Commons to Sundance. Neither are in compliance with Meridian City Code 12-4-5 that limits local streets to 1000 feet in length. Furthermore, Section 5104.2.7 of ACHD's policy manual states that any local street with a traffic volume greater than the 50 in the peak hour traversing a 700-foot long tangent section may trigger development funded traffic calming measures. 4. The traffic report in the development application talks about the concerns of traffic on Curt Drive without a direct connection to Ustick Road, yet makes no mention of the impact to the Meridian City residents of the Sundance Subdivision with having a % mile long street five foot from their backyards and fences. I would like to make the following recommendations to the City of Meridian and Ada County Highway District before the preliminary plat for the Hollybrook Subdivision is approved: 1. The developer should meet with the City of Meridian, the Ada County Highway District and the neighboring residents to determine what other options exist with the narrow 120 foot strip of land or even if this piece of land is able to be developed. The surrounding residents should not have to live with the first inadequate design that is presented. Perhaps that land could be converted into a common lot, drainage pond or a neighborhood park. Another option that should be presented to the residents would be to switch the street to the Curt Drive side and the homes to the Sundance side that would allow for future redevelopment or lot splits by the residents of Curt Drive. 2. The landscaped buffer between the Hollybrook Subdivision's entrance street right-of-way and the Sundance Subdivision boundary should be increased to meet the appropriate requirements. 3. The entrance street's horizontal alignment should be shifted to the east so sidewalk can be installed on both sides of the street. 4. The length and alignment of both Washakie Street and the entrance street need to be reexamined. Both streets are too long and too straight for local streets. This will do nothing but increase vehicular speeds. However if both of the roadways are approved as proposed. development funded traffic calming measures should be required or road trusted for. 5. The 33-foot street section for the entrance street should be reexamined. Current ACHD policy requires a 35-foot street section with parklhg on both sides, however a 29-foot street section with parking on the east side only should also be considered. The 29-foot section with parking on one side only actually gives more clearance for emergency vehicles (21 feet) than the 33-foot section with parking on both sides (17 feet). The 29-foot section street section would also give another 4 feet of buffer between the entrance street and the Sundance Subdivision as well as help slow down the vehicular traffic. 6. Vertical curb should be installed on the west side of the Hollybrook Subdivision's entrance street to help protect the fences along the Sundance Subdivision. We are also enclosing a petition with the signatures of each of the affected residents of the Sundance Subdivision who are against the Hollybrook Subdivision as it is currently proposed and would like to see other options presented before it is approved. Thank you for your valuable time. Please take our comments into consideration when reviewing the proposed preliminary plat for the Hollybrook Subdivision.
