Protect existing residential properties fi.-om incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels. (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action I) The applicant is proposing a residential development. The existing residential properties to the north, south and west and the school site to the east are compatible with the proposed development. . Support a variety of residential categories (low-, medium-, and high-density single family, multi-family, townhouses, duplexes, apartments, condominiums, 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 designated Mixed Use - Community and Medium-Density Residential on the Future Land Use Map. This proposal includes a mix of housing types and smaller residential lots while still maintaining a density consistent with the requested R-8 zone (4.63 d.u./acre). . Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to enhance comectivity and better traffic flow. (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 6) As part of the Sienna Creek Subdivision approval, a stub street was required to the northern boundary of the subject site. The applicant is proposing to extend this stub street, Buckstone Avenue, and provide three additional stub streets to the adjacent properties. City staff and ACHD are supportive of the connectivity plan for this area (see ACHD comments and conditions for details). . Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect to local roads and collectors in adjacent developments, (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 13) See bullet above, 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 interface between urban level densities and rural residential densities. (Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective D, Action 8) The applicant has proposed a development in which the larger lots in the development are on the periphery, while the smaller lots are internal. The Comprehensive Plan calls for higher density on this site, approximately 8 dwelling units per acre. Staff recognizes that there are some existing low density residential land uses to the south and west and believes that the proposed transition (to smaller lots on the interior) is desirable for the City. . . . Offer a diversity of housing types for a greater range of choice. Encourage quality housing project for all economic levels in a variety of areas. (Chapter VII Goal V Objective A) The products for the site include attached single-family residences and attached townhouse lots available to individual buyers who are seeking a lot close to the future Ustick Road neighborhood center. Permit new residential, commercial, or industrial developments only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City. (Chapter IV Goal II, Objective A) . Woodburn Subdivision AZ-05-041 , PP-O5-041,CUP-O5-042 PAGE 6 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 . All urban sel>'ices can be made available to this site. Require new residential development to provide permanent perimeter fencing to contain construction debris on site and prevent windblown debris from entering adjacent agricultural and other properties. (Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective D, Action 9) The applicant is proposing a 5-foot solid fence along the south and west boundaries. A 5-joot open vision fence is proposed near the west property line. If permanent fencing is not provided around the entire perimeter of the site, the applicant should be required to install temporary construction fencing to contain debris. Please see Exhibit B. . Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets. (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 2) Exceptfor the unnamed entrance street, access to Venable Lane should be prohibited. . Mixed Use Area Standards: all development within this designation will occur only under the Conditional Use Permit process, except the Mixed Use--Regional; where feasible, multi- family residential uses will be encouraged, especially for projects with the potential to serve as employment destination centers and when the project is adjacent to State Highways 20~26, 55 or 69;where mixed use developments are phased, a conceptual site plan for the entire mixed use area is encouraged with the development application or , depending on the scope of the development, prior to a formal development application being submitted; in developments where multiple commercial and/or office buildings are proposed (not residential), the buildings should be arranged to create some form of common, usable areas, such as a plaza or green space; where the project is developed adjacent to low or medium density residential uses, a transitional use is encouraged. (Chapter VTI, Comprehensive Plan) The applicant has applied for a CUP/PD. The applicant is proposing a multi-family aspect to this development (by definition a townhouse is a multi-family building), However, each unit and the lot will be for sale to individual owners. Therefore, the three, four and five townhouse units proposed in the center of the development will function similarly to the detached single- family homes on the periphery, Staff is supportive of the townhouse lots as they increase density in this area, as called for in the Comprehensive Plan. Further, staff is supportive of the dwelling types proposed as they allow the lot owners to take pride in ownership of each unit individually. Staff is also supportive of the open space design, as the major open space is easily accessible and useable to all of the lots. Mixed Use--Community Standards: up to 25 acres of non-residential uses permitted within the Mixed Use~~Community areas as shown on the Future Land Use Map; In Mixed Use-- Community areas that are not neighborhood centers, over 25 acres of non-residentià.l uses shall be permitted (through the CUP process); up to 200,000 square feet of non-residential building area; residential density of 3 to 15 units/acre; sample uses include all MU--N categories, clothing stores, garden centers, hardware stores, restaurants, banks, drive-thru facilities, auto service station, department stores. (Chapter VII, Comprehensive Plan). Although permitted here, the applicant is not proposing any non-residential uses. Staff believes that the non-residential uses are more appropriate closer to Ustick Road, . Staff finds that the proposed R-8 zoning designation and development plan are generally harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. 8. ZONING ORDINANCE Woodburn Subdivision AZ-05-041 , PP-05-041, CUP-O5-042 PAGE 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 a. Zoning Schedule of Use Control: Meridian City Code 11-2-1 lists single-family residential dwellings as permitted uses in the R-8 zoning district. The new Unifonn Development Code also lists townhouses as permitted uses in the R-8 zone. b. Purpose Statement of Zone: R-8 Medium Density Residential District: The purpose of the R-8 distlict is to permit the establishment of single- and two-family dwellings at a density not exceeding eight (8) Dwelling units per acre. This distlict delineates those areas where such development has or is likely to occur in accord with the comprehensive plan ofthe city and is also designed to permit the conversion of large homes into two-family dwellings in well- established neighborhoods of comparable land use. Colli1ection to the municipal water and sewer systems of the city is required. c. General Standards: As part of the PD, the applicant is requesting modifications to the general lot size, street frontage and side yard setback standards of the R-8 zone. Other than the requested modifications, the proposed development substantially complies with all of the general standards of the Meridian Zoning Ordinance. 9. ANALYSIS a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation I. AZIRZ Application: 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 subdivision. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of the required facts and findings. The alli1exation legal descliption submitted with the application (stamped on June 16, 2005 by D. Terry Peugh, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. 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 irrigation. All future development of the subject property shall be constructed in accordance with City of Melidian 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 odOI's. 2. PP Application: The proposed preliminary plat substantially complies with the current Zoning Ordinance. Special Considerations: Detached Sidewalks: The applicant is proposing to construct 4~foot wide detached sidewalks on the intemal streets. The sidewalks are detached from the curb with a 5-foot wide landscape stlip. In accordance with the recently passed ACHD planter width standards, the width of the planter strip should be increased to a minimum of 8-feet wide and include Class IT trees. See Exhibit B below. Woodburn Subdivision AZ-05-041 , PP-05-041 , CUP-05-042 PAGE 8 CITY OF MERfDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533 Ditches, Laterals, and Canals: There is an irrigation lateral that bisects this parcel. Per MCC 12-4-13, all irrigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the area being subdivided shall be tiled. See Exhibit B below. Pressure Irrigation: 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 colli1ection to the culinary water system shall be required, If a single-point colli1ection is used, 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 Exhibit B below. Fencing: The applicant is proposing to construct a five-foot tall solid fence along the south and east perimeter of the site. A detailed fencing plan should be submitted upon application of the [mal plat (MCC 12-4-10.F.3). If pennanent fencing is not provided, temporary construction fencing to contain debris must be installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building permit. 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. See Exhibit B below. Existinl! ResidenceslBuildings: The site currently contains multiple buildings. Because the existing structures span across proposed lot lines, all buildings shall be removed prior to signature of the final plat by the City Engineer. See Exhibit B below. 3. CUP Application: The applicant is requesting reductions to the standard lot size, side building setback and street frontage requirements of the R-8 zone. Twelve of the attached lots are below the 4,000 square~foot minimum lot size of the R-8 zone. Thirteen of the proposed detached lots are below the 6,500 square~foot minimum lot size of the R-8 zone. Twenty-two ofthe proposed lots are at or exceed the minimum lot size of the R-8 zone. Thirty-nine of the forty-seven proposed buildable lots do not meet the minimum street frontage requirement of the R-8 zone. Twenty-four of the proposed lots will contain at least one zero-lot line. The applicant has submitted a sample elevation of how the townhouses will look. Each building will include some stucco, brick, or rock. Staff is generally supportive of the proposed CUP/PD application, as it generally confonns to Title 12, Meridian City Code. Special Considerations: Tot Lot Location: City staff (Planning and Police) has safety concerns with the location of the tot lot proposed on Lot 13, Block 3. Due to proposed landscape trees and the lot layout, the tot lot is not visible to a majority of the subdivision. To get more eyes on the tot lot, staff recommends that it be moved east, so it is in alignment with the north-south open space corridor between Lots 5 and 6 and Lots 20 and 21, Block 3. See Exhibit B below. Elevations: The applicant has submitted one sample elevation for the townhouses Woodburn Subdivision AZ-05-041, PP-05-041, CUP-05-042 PAGE 9 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT, QUESTIONS?

Am1exation and Zoning Findings: The commission and council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the following standards and shall fmd adequate evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning amendment: The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff: Á. 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 staff report item #7 above. Staff supports the zoning and finds the proposal in general accord with the Comprehensive Plan. ß. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the future; Staff does not anticipate that the applicant intends to rezone the subject property in the future. c. 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; Stafffmds that detached single-family uses are allowed within the requested zoning district ofR- 8. The applicant is requesting to modify some of the dimensional standards of the R~8 zone and has submitted a conditional use permit 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 in this area have been approved for development similar to the proposed subdivision, with single-family residences. Based on the ACHD Long Range 2030 proposal, Ustick Road is not currently included within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or in the currently adopted 20.year Capital Improvements Plan for roadway improvements. Staff finds that the area is changing and this site is eligible for alli1exation and zorung. . . Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to he 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 meets the anticipated range for a medium density urban project Based on the Comprehensive Plan, staff believes that the existing parcels in the area (north) have already developed with similar densities and allowances for alternate products and designs are encouraged. Staff also finds that the proposed zoning and uses can be designed and constructed in a malli1er that will be harmonious with, and appropriate in appearance with, the existing and intended character of the surrounding area.

STORM WATER MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that stonn water be pre-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 stann water management system that is preventing groundwater and surface water degradation. Manuals that could be used for guidance are: State of Idaho Catalog of Storm water Best Management Practices For Idaho Cities and Counties.

The high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools throughout the district are operating over capacity. Approval of the Woodburn Subdivision will have an impact on school enrollments at Ponderosa Elementary. Sawtooth Middle. and Eagle High School. We can predict that these homes, when completed, will house twelve (12) elementary aged children, ten (10) middle school aged children, and nine (9) senior high aged students. Additional students will further compound the current overcrowded situation, Residents carmot be assured of attending the neighborhood school, as it may be necessary to bus students to other schools across the district. ----- ---------School capacity isaddressecrïn Idahô-Code 67-6-5Ö~The'Meridian-Schöõrbistrict is - ----- _-_H_-_-- currently operating beyond capacity.
