STAFF ANALYSIS A. Future Land Use Map Designation(https:llwww.meridianciu.oc /g compplan) Mixed Use Commercial—The purpose of the Mixed Use Commercial designation is to encourage the development of a mixture of office,retail,recreational, employment, and other miscellaneous uses,with supporting multifamily or single family attached residential uses. While the focus of these areas is on commercial and employment uses,the horizontal and vertical integration of residential uses is essential to securing entitlements. The subject property also resides within the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP) which plans for approximately 2,800 acres bordered(roughly)by Linder Road to the east; McDermott Road to the west: the Union Pacific Railroad line to the north and'/2 mile south of Overland Road on the south. The specific area plan is an addendum to this Comprehensive Plan. Traditional neighborhood design concepts with a strong pedestrian-oriented focus are essential within the TMISAP. The goal in these areas is to achieve a floor area ratio(FAR)of 1.00- 1.25 or more. Development within these areas exhibit quality building and site design and an attractive pedestrian environment with a strong street character. The mix of residential uses may be achieved vertically within buildings; however, some horizontal mixes may be allowed.Where existing parcel sizes are small,development plans should be prepared in collaboration with the adjacent property owners in order to establish an integrated mixed use project across several parcels. This land use designation calls for an overall target density of 8-12 dwelling units per acre,with higher densities allowed on individual projects. No more than 30 percent of the ground level development within the Mixed Use Commercial designation should be used for residences. The proposed annexation area is surrounded by existing City of Meridian zoning. The proposed application is only for annexation with the required Development Agreement; no subdivision or Conditional Use application is currently proposed. The Applicant has proposed a ale concept plan that future development shall be based off; both its general ideas and its specific details are important and will help guide future development. In general, the proposed annexation and zoning is for C-G(general commercial and office/retail) and R-40(high-density residential) with a goal to adhere to the TMISAP and the Mixed Use Commercial policies. As stated, this site resides in the TMISAP and will be required to meet certain site design and building design standards (see further analysis below) regardless of the zoning districts. Enforcement of these standards will be lam done through the executed Development Agreement required with annexation of this property. Since there are no other concurrent applications associated with this Page 4 project, Staff anticipates further refinement of this bum conce t plan as end-users are identified and a traffic impact study is completed in the future. The Applicant is requesting R-40 zoning for their residential portion of the property. Staff understands the desire is to use this zoning designation for high-density residential in the form of multi family development. Multi family residential is a conditional use in the R-40 zoning district and requires additional specific use standards as stated in UDC 11-4-3-27. Multi-familX residential is also a conditional use in the C-G zoning district and theoretically the applicant could propose less vertically dense residential across both requested zoning districts. Because of this fact, Staff is recommending that the gross density of any proposed residential uses is based on the entire area of the site and not lust within the residential zoning district. This will allow the Applicant to offer taller and denser residential on a smaller footprint furthering compliance with the Mixed Use Commercial goals and policies. f is eaneer-ned that traditional garekn style multi Anii4,development will be 19reposed and this "T-Staff is concerned that traditional, walk-up garden style multi family built in the areas shown on the bubble plan as R-40 would not meet the intent of the Mixed Use Commercial designation to build higher density and integrated housing within developments. Staff recognizes that meeting this goal is not always 100%feasible, however, the applicant should implement many of the design concepts envisioned by this future land use designation within the Ten Mile Area plan to ensure general compliance. The Applicant has assured Staff that traditional garden style multi family apartments will not be proposed and are not envisioned on this site. With the revised concept plan and conversations that have occurred with the Applicant, Staffnow has less concerns re ag rding the type of apartments that may be built on site but will be adding provisions into the DA to help ensure traditional garden style multi family is not built as part of this project. labeled as.effiee4aetail and 4? 40 be revised te shew a IaFger area ef residential but iviA-5t ef the enly a bubble diagFam. Vei-tieally integrated and multi family . tod!4'19emfit Staffpreviously recommended changinm the requested zoning from C-G and R-40 to the Traditional Neimhborhood zoning districts. This recommendation was made with the intent to ensure pedestrian oriented design and ensure some multi-story buildinzs on the subiect site in order to comply with the comprehensive plan. Since the orikinal publication of the staff report, the Applicant and Staff have worked to create a more refined concept plan that includes an overall steppinz in buildinz heizht from the arterials towards the interior of the site and street sections that mirror those within the specific area plan. These proposed street sections show on-street parking, bike lanes,parkways with a tree canopy, and detached sidewalks. These Page 5 types of street designs are largely what a "complete street"should be and offers walkable and inviting neighborhoods for both the residential and commercial component of proiects.An additional change from the original bubble plan is the Applicant's addition of 3-story townhomes along the main thoroughfare of the site and one of the roads proposed as a complete street. These 3-story townhomes are a welcomed additional housing type on site and should help to create placemaking within the transition between residential uses and commercial uses on the subiect site. Because of these changes,Staff is now more comfortable with the requested zoning designations of C-G and R-40 with both Staff and the Applicant understanding that provisions will be included to ensure the site is constructed in the future with a pedestrian oriented focus as now proposed with the revised concept plan. These revisions make the development more consistent with the policies outlined in the Mixed Use Commercial designation, specifically those that promote different housing types and an integration of commercial and residential uses. Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP): The subject site and development is required to be consistent with the street cross-sections and design elements contained within the TMISAP. These include elements of streetscape design, building design, site design, and pedestrian connectivity. Because there is no specific development proposed with this application, Staff cannot analyze whether the application meets specific design requirements. However, Staff is including some of the most applicable goals from TMISAP below and analyzing those portions that are shown on the lie revised concept plan. The Applicant has also included a list of goals from the TMISAP within their application that they expect to be included as DA provisions(see Section VII.C). The following are goals and design elements in the TMISAP that are most applicable to future development based upon the submitted bubble plan and submitted application materials—Staff s analysis is in italics: • Traditional neighborhood design concepts with a strong pedestrian-oriented focus are essential—This type of neighborhood design focuses on true interconnectivity between pedestrians, cyclists, and the automobile. One way this is achieved is through Street Oriented Design. This design requires streetscapes that should include landscaping with trees between curbs and sidewalks, the adjacent residences, and any buildingfrontages. It creates development that allows access for everyone to be direct and convenient. die The Applicant's revised concept plan specifically shows more of these elements (parkways, detached sidewalks adjacent to residences, etc) through their proposed street sections (see Section W.Q. Because this is e*a bubble concept plan, Staff will analyze future s eci is development for compliance with these design concepts. Future development of the site should also focus on building scale and design oriented for 20 mph or slower. Features typical of higher speed traffic are not compatible with the internal activity centers intended for the Ten Mile Area.All features of the future buildings should be pedestrian oriented, especially those fronting on internal travel ways and drive aisles.A simple way to help the City ensure a site design with these types of designs is to recommending--&DA provisions that future development adhere to the street cross-sections, site design,and architectural design standards laid out in the TMISAP and within the submitted street sections. to the eq4en possible. • Street-oriented design is critical in urban environments and especially at a gateway to the Ten Mile Area such as this;buildings should be at or close to the property line creating a Page 6 consistent edge to the public space and making streets more friendly and walkable—The Applicant has proposed a DA provision that speaks to this goal but the submitted condition relates to buildings fronting on Ten Mile and Franklin only. Staff agrees that these buildings should get as close as possible to the edge of the landscape buffers required along the arterial roadways but because of the required landscape buffers, they cannot "hold the corners"of these major roadways. Therefore,future commercial buildings should also aim to achieve this goal on all internal streets as well, where most pedestrian traffic will occur anyways. This will e e the f, if e l neighbor-hoe The revised concept plan shows a maiority of the commercial and 3-story townhome structures aiming to meet this,goal. Staff is still unable to fully determine whether the proposed structures are shown at the property line or are setback because it is only a concept plan. However, Staff will be including provisions to require that at least those buildings along the interior thoroughfare are built to the back ofsidewalk unless outdoor dining is proposed within this area. Staff understands that there may be a need for some of these structures to have frontage area for outdoor dining or architectural elements—this should not preclude these buildings from being built with these elements and as close to the back of sidewalk as possible to aid in placemaking within the development. In addition, the very southwest corner of the site is constrained by the Ten Mile Creek and will severely limit any use in this section of the site. The bubble revised concept plan has a note stating �possible AHD pond relocation"in this area of the site. There is no guarantee that ACHD will agree to relocating their pond and the Applicant should be open to a number ofpossible options on this constrained piece of the property zghews-a This corner of the property is approximately 1.5 acres (including the easement area) and is highly visible from public roadways. This area should be treated with great care and consideration of its intended use. Ten M e Creek-. The Ten Mile Creek should be integrated with the future uses proposed in this area similar to the design concepts implemented with the approval of the TM Creek project to the south. Staff also recommends the Applicant work with the appropriate agencies and City departments to find the best use for this corner. There could be an opportunity to provide a public use on this side of the creek. • Incorporate plazas between compatible uses to provide shared outdoor seating and enhance pedestrian circulation between uses—The revised bubb �concept plan shows plazas between proposed commercial uses and a shared vista between the proposed office/retail area and the high-density residential. This revised layout shows better pedestrian connection between uses and should greatly help activate the commercial uses. Again, anne�Eiffg in this 19repero,with the traditional neighbeAeed tzenin Some flexibility in the location of these should be assumed in the future, to ensure maximum benefit from a variety and mix of uses and various intensities and scale. • The goal in these areas is to achieve a FAR(floor area ratio)of 1.00-1.25 or more— There is no development proposed at this time that can have its FAR analyzed. This FAR is indeed a goal and not a prescribed standard as achieving this will be difficult for most developments. However, Staff and the Applicant have had discussions regarding this goal Page 7 and the TMISAP goal of two-story or more structures. In response, the Applicant has included a proposed DA provision that would require some of those structures along the main interior road that may be single-story wetr-ld be designed in such a way that their building facades appear to be a two-story structure. Staff is supportive of this provision so long as it does not include more than the two buildings shown to be affected by this requirement as depicted on the submitted concept plan. Staff is supportive of this but in reality this provision helps add a look and feel to the scale of architecture instead of aiding in addingd ensity so Staff is not overly concerned with this. Instead, Staff is recommending a provision that all commercial structures along the main thorou h�,fare (the only road shown with on-street parking)have a ceiling height of at least 1 S-feet for the,ground level commercial—this includes those buildings shown as sin lg e-story with two-stow facades. This provision is consistent with language within the TMISAP(see page 3-38 within the plan). A t a of to . to M look of Ave stag .,.,..,....re6 . Staff will review each building site as future land use applications are submitted for compliance with this.g;OW the proposed provisions but is not inclined to hold the Applicant to specific FAR requirements. Civic Land Use Designation—There is a very small area in the very northeast corner of the subject site,adjacent to the railroad tracks,that shows a Civic future land use with a Transit Station icon nearby designatien on the future land use map (FLUM). This area is labeled en the Futefe Land Use Map (FLUM)as Civic to serve as a placeholder for future multi-modal transportation options should they arise. This area.,buts the rail e ,.,.:a,,,.and is a eM..laee�r The Applicant plans to incorporate that area into their proposed R-40 zoning district. The Applicant shows does not ettffeady have plans fe this area as an open space area to act as a placeholder as it may be decades before it develops as a public transportation hub. Future transportation needs are going to become increasingly important for the City of Meridian, especially in the Ten Mile Area. To ensure the needs of future generations are at least capable of being met, areas labeled as Civic with a Transit Station icon within our FL UM need to be preserved to the extent possible. In addition to the specific land area needed for a transportation hub, access to the site is equally as important. The access to this Civic area is analyzed in the Access section of this staff report, see Section V.F. In order to help preserve this area, Staff is recommending a DA provision that holds the Applicant to interim uses, such as shared/overflow parking or open space and other temporary uses that don't require a lot of investment or permanent structures, until such time that it develops as its intende envisioned civic/transportation use. It should be noted that the City and outside agencies like that of COMPASS and VRT do not currently have specific plans for how mass-transit within the Valley will work within the rail corridor or at this location. Because of this, it is currently difficult for Staff to recommend other uses not be allowed or limit certain uses on this site for the area shown as Civic on the FLUM. It should be noted that COMPASS is currently doing a study to determine the corridor and mode for the I-84 alternative analysis. There will be additional public involvement and study necessarX Page 8 before any real regional decision is made on how the railroad corridor is used for public transportation. The Commission and Council should be aware that this Applicant is choosing work with Staff on preserving this area for the benefit of the City and not necessarily for themselves, which is appreciated. Nevertheless, Staff is concerned that the reserved area shown on the concept plan as open space may not be enough area for future transit needs like a transit station and associated infrastructure; the parking area directly to its west and potentially even the adjacent multi-story building may need to be redeveloped in the future depending on the type of public transportation developed in the future. The Applicant is aware that more of this area may need to be redeveloped in the future to accommodate future needs and also understands that a multi-modal transportation stop on this property would be beneficial to this development. The City may require a development agreement(DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A.In order to ensure the site develops as proposed with this application and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Staff recommends a DA as a provision of annexation with the provisions included in Section HII.A1. The DA is required to be signed by the property owners)/developer and returned to the City within 6 months of the Council granting the annexation for approval by City Council and subsequent recordation. B. Comprehensive Plan Policies(https://www.meridiancity.o-glcompplan): The applicable general Comprehensive Plan policies are cited below with Staff analysis in italics. "Promote Ten Mile,Downtown, and The Village as centers of activity and growth."(2.09.03B). The location of this site is at a major intersection within the TMISAP, in the northeast corner of N. Ten Mile Road and W. Franklin Road. This site is one of the last major corners of the Ten Mile Area to be annexed. Even though there is no specific development proposed at this time with this application, the submitted bubble plan shows the framework for a center of activity and growth. Staff believes this could be a welcome addition to the City of Meridian. "Avoid the concentration of any one housing type or lot size in any geographical area;provide for diverse housing types throughout the City"(2.01.01 G). The proposed bubble plan shows R-40 zoning which is meant for high-density residential. In line with this, the Applicant plans to construct multi family residential and some 3-story townhomes in the requested R-40 zoning area. In the nearby vicinity of this site there is detached and attached single-family residential and multi family residential. There is other R-40 zoning in the area where multi family is under construction, an area where multi family is already constructed, and another area of R-40 zoning that is zoned but not yet developed. There is also R-8 and R-15 zoning districts nearby that house the single-family residential options for the area. Staff believes that some additional multi family residential is a good fit for this area and the proposed density of commercial uses,provided there be a mix of housing product types and designed consistent with traditional neighborhood principles. "Reduce the number of existing access points onto arterial streets by using methods such as cross- access agreements, access management, and frontage/backage roads, and promoting local and collector street connectivity"(6.01.02B).Future development on this site will dictate precisely where and how many access points to the arterial streets (Ten Mile and Franklin) are needed. The Applicant is requesting to keep as many of the existing curb cuts as possible but understands that those locations shown on the bubble plan are not approved. This is because a future TIS will be required and the Applicant will be required to show how and why the locations and number of access points are needed. In general, Staff appreciates the Applicant's desire to not keep all existing access points. Staff will largely defer to ACHD's staff report on the future access points onto the arterial streets to be determined with a future traffic study. Staff recommends that the Page 9 applicant work with ACHD for the extension of the collector street network to serve the development with a future traffic study. "Provide housing options close to employment and shopping centers"(3.07.02D). This project is proposed as a mixed use development that would have both residential and employment opportunities in the same area. In addition, the area immediately south of the subject site is the Ten Mile Crossing subdivision that is full of commercial and employment development. Staff believes this is a prime location for residential, especially for the high a.nsi, ,,,.gig n fi 'f'�* different housing types being proposed. "Encourage the development of high._quality, dense residential and mixed use areas near in and around Downtown,near employment, large shopping centers,public open spaces and parks, and along major transportation corridors,as shown on the Future Land Use Map."(2.02.01E). Gateway at 10 Mile is proposed as a mixed use development with three and four-story, high density residential as a main use of the site. The residential piece of this development is proposed to integrate with the commercial portion of the site as well as offer options to those working in the employment centers nearby and throughout the Ten Mile Area. In addition, the site is located at the corner of two major arterial streets which furthers the need for dense residential and a mix of uses on this corner. Staff finds that as development occurs on the subject properV, future development on nearby properties will encourage the density and types of uses proposed at this location. Staff finds this development to be generally consistent with Comprehensive Plan policies and objectives. C. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: The subject site is solely used for agriculture at this time.No other site improvements or structures are known at this time. D. Proposed Use Analysis: The proposed uses are not yet set in stone. However,the Applicant's btibble concept plan depicts multi-family residential; commercial; and office/retail. This application is requesting C-G and R- 40 zoning;multi-family residential is a conditional use in the R-40 zoning district per UDC Table 11-2A-2 and the C-G zoning district allows multiple types of commercial,retail, and office uses. As noted above, Staff is reeammending the TX G and Trr A .. .a; tFie.. e, a Igerfieff ,f site iAere same ef the G G and ag ef MeR 40 afae being pr6Tesed, This reeammendatien is no now comfortable with the requested zoning of C-G and R-40 contingent on the fact that the pedestrian oriented desiv_n outlined in the submitted street sections and revised concept plan are adhered to in the future. Staff is recommending a number of revised and new provisions to help ensure the site is built as Page 10 close to this as possible.Multi-family residential is a conditional use in the R-40 zoning district and the Applicant is aware that this application is not grantin, approval of the multi-family use as that will be determined through future conditional use permit(s). The inclusion of plazas and sidewalks that connect the proposed commercial and residential uses promote interconnectivity between uses as desired within the Mixed Use Commercial designation in the TMISAP. The Applicant has provided an exhibit of these plazas showing what appear to be raised crossings for vehicles (adding pedestrian safety), benches with trees within tree grates, and sails providing shade for bistro tables between the commercial buildings. Staff finds that these details within the submitted exhibit show integration of pedestrian elements and better access to the proposed commercial/retail buildings for those who will live and work on-site or nearby. Future development of these plazas should minimally contain these main elements to ensure compliance with the TMISAP and Comprehensive Plan. Staff is recommending provisions in line with these elements. An additional element of the proposed uses within this development are the proposed industrial uses to the east of the subject site.As more of this area develops with users, they will need places to live, socialize, and grab lunch. It is not unfathomable that employees of the new Fed-Ex distribution center to the east will walk to this propegy Lor lunch every week. Because of this, Staeffsupports the ratio of proposed commercial and residential on the subject site, 22.7 acres to 16.3 acres respectively. Even though the proposed uses are subject to change as end-users are identified in the future, the general distribution of land reserved for commercial and residential is not intended to change. To offer both the City and the Applicant some flexibility in future uses, Staff is recommending a DA provision to limit the amount of Residential uses on the property to no more than 4501o. E. Dimensional Standards(UDC 11-2): All fixture lots and public streets shall be required to meet all UDC dimensional standards. This includes property sizes,required street frontages,road widths, and traditional neighborhood design standards as required by the TMISAP_ara the tfad tion,l fieighbeFhead distf ets i the U F. Access(UDC 11-3A-3): Even though the subject site is used for agricultural purposes and has historically been so,there are multiple curb cuts along W. Franklin Road and N. Ten Mile Road, arterial roadways. The submitted bubble plan shows the Applicant's desire to keep a majority of the existing curb cuts for future access. According to ACHD,future development of this site must have a traffic impact study(TIS) completed and approved by ACHD based upon the density of housing and type of commercial users proposed. Because a TIS will be required at a future date, Staff will await conditioning the access points until such time that future development applications and a TIS are submitted.A DA provision has been recommended in this staff report to ensure compliance with City and ACHD policies regarding future access points to these arterial roadways. Along the eastern boundary, the Master Street Map (MSM) and the TMISAP show a future collector roadway that traverses almost the entire eastern property line. This collector roadway is intended to connect across Franklin and into the Ten Mile Crossing subdivision develepmeHt to the south of this site. However, this collector roadway cannot be built at its proposed connection point to W. Franklin Road at this time due to this Applicant not owning the property that directly abuts Franklin Road. The Applicant is agreeing to construct half plus twelve feet of public right- Page 11 of-way on the area of the site they do own in the southeast corner of their site. This construction would occur upon development of the site at a future date. Directly to the east of this site is I-L zoning and a new Fed-Ex distribution center is nearing construction. Even though the MSM and TMISAP show the future collector roadway going further north along the shared property boundary and then heading east, Fed-Ex was not required to build a portion of the collector roadway going north-south on this shared property line. Instead, they were approved with an east-west collector road further south within their property that aligns with the proposed east-west roadway in the southern area shown in this application. This location of the collector roadway is clearly different than that shown within the TMISAP. This new location should still offer adequate cross access between parcels once fully developed but has also changed the type offuture access to the Civic use in the northeast corner of this site where the collector roadway would connect to. Since the Fed-Ex distribution center was approved without constructing the north-south collector, Staff does not have authef4" "Wre thent to do so until that site redeve&Ts. Therefai-e-, thefutupe north sauth eageete roadway shown on the MSM, it is not a feasible option to require this Applicant construct their portion at this time. at least a the eelleeteF Feaeh�,qy in theseuthea7qt eer-ner ef this site that will eenneet te Frank4in Read a- fer Instead, Staff believes adequate access to any future transportation use in along the north boundary neF east eemeu of the site,shown as the Civic land use on the concept plan, can be obtained via an east-west public street connection to Ten Mile Road as depicted on the concept plan.A 19atenfial aher-nafi+w to this would be to move Me Qvie usefurtheF ivest, still alqmg th naFtheFn baundai�,,but behind the eemmereialftentiffg Ten Mk-, and ensure Staff believes the travel way shown in the north of the site&should be built as a full public access (at least a local street) to handle future traffic to and from a transportation hub instead of the private street shown on the concept plan. In addition to the access points to Ten Mile and Franklin Road, there will be travel ways within the development. These areas appear to be shown on the ., •b,, itt a b•• revised concept plan as a combination ofpublic streets,private streets, and drive aisles_and net full-if Me Q'upe'Q ��a The road network will be the backbone of the connectivity for this development and is therefore incredibly important to the future development of this site. Staff would prefer the main travel way shown that starts in the southeast corner and curves up towards the northwest corner of the property be a public local street. bw Staff believes creating a geese public thoroughfare would help traffic flow and create a grand drive through the development lined with street trees and pedestrian walkways. Staff is fully supportive of the proposed street sections as they mirror those presented as "Street Section C"and "Street Section D"within the transportation section of the TMISAP(see page 3- 20 and 3-21 of the TMISAP). The submitted renderings include street trees, bike lanes, on-street parking, and detached sidewalks—all of these elements are desired within the Ten Mile area and especially within Mixed Use Commercial land use designations where pedestrian oriented design is expected. Whether the final street layout within this development is private or public, Staff is recommending that minimally the main streets within the development be built with these street sections in mind. also help aehieve this gea(I as stated tht;eugheHt the staff i�eper4. The Faa6h�wy shown dlaffg Page 12 Staff recommends that the Applicant continue working with ACHD on the extension of the street network within this development; this will hopefully occur through the future traffic study that is required. G. Parking(UDC 11-3C): Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table 11- 3C-5 for all uses other than single-family detached dwellings. Included in these standards are those for commercial and retail,office, and restaurant uses. ha addition,the...,..k4ag standards f Future planning land applications will determine the required number of parking spaces for all uses. H. Pathways (UDC 11-3A-8): No multi-use pathways are proposed or required with this development. However,one of the main goals of a mixed use designation is pedestrian access and connection as well as cyclist connectivity and safety for all.A recommended DA provision is the applicant provide a pedestrian circulation plan with a future DA amendment or subdivision,so staff can analyze pedestrian circulation on the site once end-users are known for the proposed development. I. Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-17): Seven-foot attached sidewalks exist along N. Ten Mile Road; seven-foot attached and detached sidewalk exist adjacent to W. Franklin Road.No additional sidewalks are proposed at this time because no development is proposed with this application. Future development projects on this site will be analyzed for compliance with the required sidewalk widths and locations. Staff notes that pedestrian connection will be integral to future development of this site and the Applicant will be required to meet the standards as set forth in UDC 11-3A-17 and those additional DA provisions outliningtquirement to construct some complete streets as proposed with the submitted street sections commensurate with the TMISAP. J. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A 25-foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to both W. Franklin Road and N. Ten Mile Road, arterial roadways,landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. A common lot that is at least 25-feet wide along these roadways will be required upon future development.As future development and the required TIS will dictate vehicular connections to Franklin and Ten Mile, Staff does not find it necessary to require construction of the buffers now. Some of the required landscaping would likely be destroyed upon development. Therefore, Staff will analyze the landscape buffers at a later date. The landscape details that are a part of complete streets aid traditional neighbor-hood deR*will be analyzed with future development. K. Qualified Open Space (UDC 11-3G): The Applicant has requested R-40 zoning and has stated their intention of developing that area with high-density,multi-family residential. In the R-40 zone,multi-family residential is a conditional use and qualified open space will be required for a minimum of 10%of the gross area and the open space requirements for the specific use standards in UDC 11-4-3-27 the requirement for open space to be provided under both sections of code is currently under review by staff and the Open Space Committee; therefore,this statement may not be entirely accurate and the Applicant may have different standards that are required upon submittal of future land use applications). The qualified open space and amenities for the future multi-family development will be reviewed at a later date. Page 13 L. Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): As stated above,no specific development is proposed with this application. Therefore,no building elevations were submitted. Future buildings on the subject site will be required to meet the architectural standards laid out in the TMISAP and the Architectural Standards Manual (ASM). The architectural design standards within the recommended traditional neighborhood design often reflect buildings with porches,minimal front loaded garages,and great pedestrian connections. The vertically integrated buildings being recommended by staff have specific use standards that will also drive the architectural design for these areas. Staff recommends the Applicant review these requirements in conjunction with the Ten Mile Plan and its architectural standards. The proposed C-G zoning district should house multiple types of uses. The future buildings in this zone will be required to minimally meet those architectural design standards listed in the non- residential ASM checklist.In addition,the TMISAP requires the commercial buildings to be built with street oriented design. Some of the main design points in this specific plan are: buildings must"hold the corners"of the site when adjacent to streets; street level commercial must have at least 40%of the linear dimension of the fagade as windows or doorways;no wall frontage shall continue uninterrupted by a window or public access for a linear distance of greater than 12 feet; and the principle doorway for public entry into a building shall be from the fronting street. Staff is recommending DA provisions to ensure future compliance with the architectural standards for both the commercial and residential portions of this project. VI. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the requested annexation and zoning with the requirement of a Development Agreement and the provisions noted in Section VIILA per the findings in Section IX of this staff report.

Applicant's Proposed Development Agreement Provisions Ten-NUle and Franklin—Proposed Conditions for DA We propose that the following items be included as conditions governing development of the subject property: • Hui Idings along Ten M i I c and Franklin should relate effecti vel y to each fronting street. Buildings along Ten Mile and Franklin should be at or close to the property line facing the street with main entrances/facades oriented to the street. Parking will not be permitted between front of building and street frontage along Ten Mile and Franklin. • Buildings at the corner of Ten Mile and Franklin should "hold the corners" to the extent feasible given the constraints of the site due to Ten Mile Creek. • The space between a building facade and the adjacent sidewalk should be landscaped with a combination of lawn,groundeover,shrubs,and trees. ■ Minimize single-story structures. Include at least one multi-story building fronting on Ten Mile and at least one multi-story building fronting on Franklin. On single-story strictures, use architectural facades to add height wherever possible and visually effective. ■ Incorporate plazas between compatible uses to provide shared outdoor seating and enhance pedestrian circulation between uses. • Restaurants are encouraged to have outdoor dining. Shops & stores are encouraged to open their doors &street front windows&use clear glass that allows visual access inwards&outwards. • Incorporate hurnan-scale design with building entrances placed close to the street, ground floor windows, articulated facades, appropriately scaled signs and lighting, and awnings and other weather protection. Create architectural distinctions between any ground and upper stories_ Announce entries through changes in details,materials,and design compositions. • Provide elements that become focal points and announce special places in the Ten Mile area (gateway & entryway corridor signs, continuous walkways, attractive Arcetscape design and landscaping). • Architectural character should establish a clear sense of identity for each activity center through an overall palette for each phase of the development while maintaining a degree of individuality for each building. The palette should address and coordinate key elements such as materials(walls,roofs,key architectural elements),and colors,etc. • Signs should be compatible with the architecture of the buildings and businesses they identify in colors,materials,sizes,shapes,and fighting.
