Hansen,Commissioner C0;� +a�,o 54�clel Mary May,Commissioner Alexis Pickering,Commissioner February 17, 2021 To: Marcel Lopez Flexspace LLC 4824 W. Fairview Avenue Boise, ID 83706 Subject: MER21-0017/H-2020-0123 Movado Mixed Use 4225 E. Overland Road and Parcel Number S1121121011 This is a Conditional Use Permit application and Development Agreement Modification to construct 66 townhome units and 27,580 square feet of commercial/office space on 6.8 acres. This site is part of the Movado Estates Subdivision Master Plan. The applicant has indicated that the modification for this portion of the development will reduce the original anticipated daily trips for the development by 330 trips. On October 9, 2017, the Ada County Highway District approved Movado Greens/ MPP17-0037/ H-2017-0104 for a rezone, preliminary plat, development agreement and conditional use permit application to allow modifications to the existing entitlements to allow for the development of 96 single family building lots, 112 apartment units and 6 commercial lots on 21 acres of the Movado Estates Subdivision. The site-specific conditions of approval for Movado Greens also apply to this application, Movado Mixed Use, MER21-0017/H-2020-0123, as well as the following findings and site specific conditions of approval. A. Findings for Consideration 1. Driveway on Overland Road As part of ACHD's action on the Movado Greens application, the applicant was required to close an existing 60-foot wide driveway on Overland Road located 150-feet east of Movado Way with curb, gutter and 7-foot wide attached concrete sidewalk to match the existing improvements on either side. This driveway also abuts this site and it appears the driveway has not yet been closed. The site specific conditions of approval for Movado Greens also apply to this development application. The applicant should ensure this driveway is closed with this development, consistent with the site specific conditions of approval for Movado Greens. 2. Movado Way a. Existing Conditions: There are two 14-foot wide curb cut type driveways onto Movado Way located on the east and west sides of the roadway, 445-feet south of Overland Road. b. Policy: Access Policy: District Policy 7205.4.1 states that all access points associated with development applications shall be determined in accordance with the policies in this section and Section 7202. Access points shall be reviewed only for a development application that is being Ada County Highway District•3775 Adams Street•Garden City,ID•83714• PH 2O8-387-6100• FX 345-7650•www.achd.ada.id.us considered by the lead land use agency. Approved access points may be relocated and/or restricted in the future if the land use intensifies, changes, or the property redevelops. District Policy 7206.1 states that the primary function of a collector is to intercept traffic from the local street system and carry that traffic to the nearest arterial. A secondary function is to service adjacent property. Access will be limited or controlled. Collectors may also be designated at bicycle and bus routes. Driveway Location Policy (Signalized Intersection): District policy 7206.4.3 requires driveways located on collector roadways near a signalized intersection to be located outside the area of influence; OR a minimum of 440-feet from the signalized intersection for a full-access driveway and a minimum of 220-feet from the signalized intersection for a right-in/right-out only driveway. Dimensions shall be measured from the centerline of the intersection to the centerline of the driveway. Driveway Location Policy (Stop Controlled Intersection): District policy 7206.4.4 requires driveways located on collector roadways near a STOP controlled intersection to be located outside of the area of influence; OR a minimum of 150-feet from the intersection, whichever is greater. Dimensions shall be measured from the centerline of the intersection to the centerline of the driveway. Successive Driveways: District policy 7206.4.5 Table 1, requires driveways located on collector roadways with a speed limit of 25 MPH and daily traffic volumes greater than 100 VTD to align or offset a minimum of 245-feet from any existing or proposed driveway. Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7206.4.6 restricts high-volume driveways (100 VTD or more) to a maximum width of 36-feet and low-volume driveways (less than 100 VTD) to a maximum width of 30-feet. Curb return type driveways with 30-foot radii will be required for high- volume driveways with 100 VTD or more. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for low-volume driveways with less than 100 VTD. Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7206.4.6, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers in accordance with Table 2 under District Policy 7206.4.6. Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing streets adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These improvements are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused driveways with curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs; traffic control devices; and other similar items. c. Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct 3 driveways on to Movado Way as follows: • Two 30-foot wide paved curb return type driveways located 220-feet south of Overland Road (measured from centerline-to-centerline). • A 24-foot wide curb return type driveway in alignment with Vacheron Street. d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal to construct a driveway aligned with Vacheron Street meets District policy and should be approved as proposed. The applicant should be required to close the two existing driveways on Movado Way located 425-feet south of Overland Road with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk to match improvements on either side. The applicant's proposal for the driveways on Movado Way located 220-feet south of Overland Road meet ACHD's Driveway Location Policy for a stop-controlled intersection, however, the Overland Road/Movado Way intersection is anticipated to be signalized in the future. The applicant's proposal does not meet the required 440-foot offset from a signalized intersection for a full access driveway. Staff prefers that the driveways be located to meet ACHD policy from a signalized intersection. If the applicant does not want to locate driveways as recommended, then the proposed locations can be approved as temporary full access driveways. These driveways may be restricted to right-in/right-out only in the future when the intersection is signalized. All driveways onto Movado Way should provide a minimum unobstructed sight distance of 225- feet. 3. Cross Access As part of ACHD's review of a City of Boise conditional use permit application CUP18-00016 (BO118-0131) the applicant of that application had indicated that they have a cross access agreement with this site, to utilize a driveway onto Movado Way. At this time construction drawings have not been submitted to ACHD for review providing verification of the cross-access agreement. ACHD staff recommends the City of Meridian require cross access from this site to the adjacent parcel to the east (S1121110200). Without cross access provided to Movado Way, Overland Road will be the sole access point to this site. B. Site Specific Conditions of Approval 1. All site specific conditions of approval for development application MPP17-0037 Movado Greens also apply to this development application. 2. Close the two existing 14-foot wide driveways on Movado Way located 445-feet south of Overland Road with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk to match improvements on either side. 3. Construct two 30-foot wide curb return type driveways on Movado Way located 220-feet south of Overland Road (measured from centerline-to-centerline), as proposed. These driveways may be restricted to right-in/right-out only at any time at the discretion of ACHD. 4. Construct a curb return type driveway on Movado Way aligned centerline-to-centerline with Vacheron Street, as proposed. C. Attachments 1. Vicinity Map 2. Site Plan 3.

Description of Application: This is a rezone, preliminary plat, development agreement modification, and conditional use permit application to allow modifications to the existing entitlements of the Silverstone Apartments and Movado Subdivision to allow for the development of 96 single family building lots, 112 apartment units, and 6 commercial lots on 21 acres. The site is located on the south side of Overland Road between Cloverdale Road and Topaz Way. 2. Description of Adjacent Surrounding Area: Direction Land Use Zoning North Single family residential C-G/R-1/RUT (Ada Count South Single family residential R-15 East Single family residential R-1A/R-1B (Boise City) West Commercial C-G 3. Site History: ACHD previously approved this site as part of Silverstone Apartments and Movado Subdivision in 2016. The requirements of this staff report are consistent with those of the prior action. 1 Movado Greens 4. Adjacent Development: The following developments are pending or underway in the vicinity of the site: • Movado Subdivision, consisting of 430 single family residential lots, 39 common lots was approved by ACHD on December 7, 2016. The subdivision is currently under construction and located directly south of the site. 5. Transit: Transit services are not available to serve this site. 6. New Center Lane Miles: The proposed development includes 0.3 centerline miles of new public road. 7. Impact Fees: There will be an impact fee that is assessed and due prior to issuance of any building permits. The assessed impact fee will be based on the impact fee ordinance that is in effect at that time. 8. Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)/ Integrated Five Year Work Plan (IFYWP): • Overland Road is listed in the Capital Improvements Plan to be widened to 7-lanes from Eagle Road to Cloverdale Road between 2031 and 2037. • Cloverdale Road is listed in the Capital Improvements Plan to be widened to 5-lanes from Victory Road to Overland Road between 2021 and 2025. • The intersection of Overland Road and Cloverdale Road is listed in the Capital Improvements Plan to be widened to 7-lanes on the north leg, 7-lanes on the south, 8-lanes east, and 8-lanes on the west leg, and signalized between 2026 and 2030. • The intersection of Overland Road and Eagle Road is listed in the Capital Improvements Plan to be widened to 7-lanes on the north leg, 6-lanes on the south, 9-lanes east, and 9-lanes on the west leg, and signalized between 2026 and 2030. B. Traffic Findings for Consideration 1. Trip Generation: This development is estimated to generate 3,163 vehicle trips per day; 280 vehicle trips per hour in the PM peak hour, based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 9t" edition. 2. Traffic Impact Study Thompson Engineers previously prepared a traffic impact study for Movado Subdivision, which included the Movado Greens site. An executive summary of the findings as presented by Thompson Engineers can be found as attachment 3. An updated traffic impact study was not required for this application, as the proposed modifications are estimated to generate less trips than what was originally proposed. Updated traffic impact studies may be required as the commercial lots develop. 2 Movado Greens 3. Condition of Area Roadways Traffic Count is based on Vehicles per hour(VPH) Functional PM Peak PM Peak Existing Roadway Frontage Classification Hour Hour Level Plus Traffic Count of Service Project Overland Road 1 1138 Principal Better than Better than (5-lanes) ,350-feet Arterial , "E" "E" Cloverdale Road N/A Minor 771 "F" "F" (2-lanes) Arterial Eagle Road N/A Principal 931 Better than Better than (5-lanes) Arteria I "E" "E" * Acceptable level of service for a five-lane principal arterial is "E" (1,780 VPH). * Acceptable level of service for a two-lane minor arterial is "E" (575 VPH). * Acceptable level of service for a five-lane minor arterial is "E" (1,540 VPH). 4. Average Daily Traffic Count (VDT) Average daily traffic counts are based on ACHD's most current traffic counts. • The average daily traffic count for Overland Road west of Cloverdale Road was 24,364 on 12/1/15. • The average daily traffic count for Cloverdale Road north of Overland Road was 14,607 on 12/1/15. • The average daily traffic count for Cloverdale Road south of Overland Road was 14,411 on 5/6/14. • The average daily traffic count for Eagle Road east of Easy Jet was 18,515 on 2/4/15. • The average daily traffic count on Muir Ridge Drive west of Cloverdale Road was 939 on 10/14/14. • The average daily traffic count on Goshen Way south of Muir Ridge Drive was 804 on 10/14/14. C. Findings for Consideration 1. Level of Service Standards a. Applicant Proposal: Cloverdale Road south of Overland Road is currently operating below the acceptable LOS. The applicant's proposal will cause the intersection of Cloverdale Road and Overland Road to operate below the acceptable LOS. This is upon full build out of the project without improvements to the intersection or to Cloverdale Road. b. Staff Comments/Recommendations: Cloverdale Road south of Overland Road is currently operating at LOS F and is listed as an existing 5-lane deficiency in the CIP. The intersection of Cloverdale and Overland is listed in the CIP, and is planned for future reconstruction/widening. The proposed project does not take access to Cloverdale Road. Future ACHD improvements include widening Cloverdale Road to 5 lanes from Overland Road to Victory Road, relocating the Ridenbaugh Canal, and reconstructing the intersection of Cloverdale Road and Overland Road. The costs associated with widening Cloverdale Road ($5,840,000) and the intersection ($6,600,000) make it infeasible for the applicant to construct the improvements. Based on the TIS, upon build-out of this development, site traffic will comprise approximately 8.6% of the total traffic at the intersection of Cloverdale Road and Overland Road. Upon completion of the ACHD projects, the intersection and road segment are projected to operate at an acceptable LOS. 3 Movado Greens Based on the findings above, staff recommends a waiver of District Policy 7106.4.1 Level of Service Standards. c. Prior Action: On December 7, 2016, the ACHD Commission approved the staff recommended waiver of the Level of Service Standards, as part of their action on the Movado Subdivision. 2. Overland Road a. Existing Conditions: Overland Road is improved with 5-travel lanes, vertical curb, gutter, and 7-foot wide sidewalk abutting the site. There is 105-feet of right-of-way for Overland Road (55-feet from centerline). b. Policy: Arterial Roadway Policy: District Policy 7205.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for improving all street frontages adjacent to the site regardless of whether or not access is taken to all of the adjacent streets. Master Street Map and Typology Policy: District Policy 7205.5 states that the design of improvements for arterials shall be in accordance with District standards, including the Master Street Map and Livable Streets Design Guide. The developer or engineer should contact the District before starting any design. Street Section and Right-of-Way Width Policy: District Policies 7205.2.1 & 7205.5.2 state that the standard 7-lane street section shall be 96-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb) within 120-feet of right-of-way. This width typically accommodates three travel lanes in each direction, a continuous raised or landscaped median with intermittent turn lanes, and safety shoulders. Right-of-Way Dedication: District Policy 7205.2 states that The District will provide compensation for additional right-of-way dedicated beyond the existing right-of-way along arterials listed as impact fee eligible in the adopted Capital Improvements Plan using available impact fee revenue in the Impact Fee Service Area. No compensation will be provided for right-of-way on an arterial that is not listed as impact fee eligible in the Capital Improvements Plan. The District may acquire additional right-of-way beyond the site-related needs to preserve a corridor for future capacity improvements, as provided in Section 7300. Sidewalk Policy: District Policy 7205.5.7 requires a concrete sidewalks at least 5-feet wide to be constructed on both sides of all arterial streets. A parkway strip at least 6-feet wide between the back-of-curb and street edge of the sidewalk is required to provide increased safety and protection of pedestrians. Consult the District's planter width policy if trees are to be placed within the parkway strip. Sidewalks constructed next to the back-of-curb shall be a minimum of 7-feet wide. Detached sidewalks are encouraged and should be parallel to the adjacent roadway. Meandering sidewalks are discouraged. A permanent right-of-way easement shall be provided if public sidewalks are placed outside of the dedicated right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right- of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk. Sidewalks shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing streets adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These improvements are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused 4 Movado Greens driveways with curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs; traffic control devices; and other similar items. ACHD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map (MSM) guide the right-of-way acquisition, arterial street requirements, and specific roadway features required through development. This segment of Overland Road is designated in the MSM as a Mobility Arterial with 7-lanes and on-street bike lanes, a 96-foot street section within 124-feet of right-of-way. c. Applicant Proposal: The applicant hasn't proposed any improvements to Overland Road abutting the site. d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: Consistent with the MSM, the applicant should be required to dedicate additional right-of-way to total 62-feet from the centerline of Overland Road abutting the site to accommodate future widening to a 7-lane roadway. Consistent with ACHD's prior action the site (Movado Subdivision) the applicant should be required to construct an eastbound right turn lane on Overland Road at its intersection with Movado Way. The applicant should coordinate with ACHD staff on the design of the right turn lane and right-of-way dedication. The applicant should be required to replace deteriorated or broken portions of curb, gutter, and sidewalk on Overland Road abutting the site, consistent with ACHD's Minor Improvement Policy. 3. Movado Way (Collector) a. Existing Conditions: Movado Way is currently under construction. b. Policy: Collector Street Policy: District policy 7206.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for improving all collector frontages adjacent to the site or internal to the development as required below, regardless of whether access is taken to all of the adjacent streets. Master Street Map and Typologies Policy: District policy 7206.5 states that if the collector street is designated with a typology on the Master Street Map, that typology shall be considered for the required street improvements. If there is no typology listed in the Master Street Map, then standard street sections shall serve as the default. Street Section and Right-of-Way Policy: District policy 7206.5.2 states that the standard right-of-way width for collector streets shall typically be 50 to 70-feet, depending on the location and width of the sidewalk and the location and use of the roadway. The right-of-way width may be reduced, with District approval, if the sidewalk is located within an easement; in which case the District will require a minimum right-of-way width that extends 2-feet behind the back-of-curb on each side. The standard street section shall be 46-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb). This width typically accommodates a single travel lane in each direction, a continuous center left-turn lane, and bike lanes. Residential Collector Policy: District policy 7206.5.2 states that the standard street section for a collector in a residential area shall be 36-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb). The District will consider a 33-foot or 29-foot street section with written fire department approval and taking into consideration the needs of the adjacent land use, the projected volumes, the need for bicycle lanes, and on-street parking. Sidewalk Policy: District policy 7206.5.6 requires a concrete sidewalks at least 5-feet wide to be constructed on both sides of all collector streets. A parkway strip at least 6-feet wide between the back-of-curb and street edge of the sidewalk is required to provide increased safety and protection of pedestrians. Consult the District's planter width policy if trees are to 5 Movado Greens be placed within the parkway strip. Sidewalks constructed next to the back-of-curb shall be a minimum of 7-feet wide. Detached sidewalks are encouraged and should be parallel to the adjacent roadway. Meandering sidewalks are discouraged. A permanent right-of-way easement shall be provided if public sidewalks are placed outside of the dedicated right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right- of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk. Sidewalks shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. Landscape Medians Policy: District policy 7206.5.14 states that landscape medians are permissible where adequate pavement width is provided on each side of the median to accommodate the travel lanes and where the following is provided: • The median is platted as right-of-way owned by ACHD. • The width of an island near an intersection is 12-feet maximum for a minimum distance of 150-feet. Beyond the 150-feet, the island may increase to a maximum width of 30-feet. • At an intersection that is signalized or is to be signalized in the future, the median width shall be reduced to accommodate the necessary turn lane storage and tapers. • The Developer or Homeowners Association shall apply for a license agreement if landscaping is to be placed within these medians. • The license agreement shall contain the District's requirements of the developer including, but not limited to, a "hold harmless" clause; requirements for maintenance by the developer; liability insurance requirements; and restrictions. • Vertical curbs are required around the perimeter of any raised median. Gutters shall slope away from the curb to prevent ponding. ACHD Master Street Map: ACHD Policy Section 3111.1 requires the Master Street Map (MSM) guide the right-of-way acquisition, collector street requirements, and specific roadway features required through development. A new collector roadway was identified on the MSM with the street typology of Residential Collector. The Residential Collector typology as depicted in the Livable Street Design Guide recommends a 2-lane roadway with bike lanes, and on street parking, a 47-foot street section within 69-feet of right-of-way. c. Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct Movado Way as a 33-foot wide collector street section with vertical curb and gutter within 35-feet of right-of-way, and 8-foot wide planter strips and 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalks within easements. The applicant has proposed to construct one 10-foot wide center landscape island with 21-foot wide travel lanes on either side with vertical curb, and gutter within 54-feet of right-of-way with 8-foot wide planter strips and 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalks within an easement. d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal was previously approved as part of ACHD's action on Movado Subdivision and Movado Way is currently under construction. No improvements are required as part of this application. 4. Internal Local Street a. Existing Conditions: There are no internal local streets within the site. b. Policy: Local Roadway Policy: District Policy 7207.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for improving all local street frontages adjacent to the site regardless of whether or not access is taken to all of the adjacent streets. 6 Movado Greens Street Section and Right-of-Way Policy: District Policy 7207.5 states that right-of-way widths for all local streets shall generally not be less than 50-feet wide and that the standard street section shall be 36-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb). The District will consider the utilization of a street width less than 36-feet with written fire department approval. Standard Urban Local Street-36-foot to 33-foot Street Section and Right-of-way Policy: District Policy 7207.5.2 states that the standard street section shall be 36-feet (back-of-curb to back-of-curb) for developments with any buildable lot that is less than 1 acre in size. This street section shall include curb, gutter, and minimum 5-foot concrete sidewalks on both sides and shall typically be within 50-feet of right-of-way. The District will also consider the utilization of a street width less than 36-feet with written fire department approval. Most often this width is a 33-foot street section (back-of-curb to back- of-curb)for developments with any buildable lot that is less than 1 acre in size. Reduced Urban Local Street-29-foot Street Section and Right-of-Way Policy: District Policy 7207.5.2 states that the width of a reduced urban local street shall be 29-feet (back-of- curb to back-of-curb) with curb, gutter, and minimum 5-foot concrete sidewalks on both sides and shall typically be within 42-feet of right-of-way. Although some parking is allowed by the following subsections, the District will further restrict parking on a reduced width street if curves or other physical features cause problems, if actual emergency response experience indicates that emergency vehicles may not be able to provide service, or if other safety concerns arise. One of the following three sets of design conditions shall apply. Design Condition #1: Parking is allowed on one side of a reduced width street when all of the following criteria are met: • The street is in a residential area. • The developer shall provide written approval from the appropriate fire department or emergency response unit in the jurisdiction. • The developer shall install —NO PARKINGII signs on one side of the street, as specified by the District and as specified by the appropriate fire department. • Vertical curbs with attached 5-foot (minimum) wide sidewalks, or rolled curbs with 5-foot (minimum)wide detached sidewalks and 8-foot (minimum) wide planter strips, are required. • Traffic volumes on the street shall not exceed 1,000 vehicle trips per day. There shall be no possibility that another street may be connected to it in a manner that would allow more than 1,000 vehicle trips per day. Design Condition #2: Parking is allowed on both sides of a reduced width street when the street layout has the qualities of a road grid system. This provides fire trucks and other emergency vehicles alternate routes of access since the ability to pass another vehicle may be compromised by placement of parked vehicles on both sides of the street. The following criteria shall be met: • The street is in a residential area. • The developer shall provide written approval from the appropriate fire department or emergency response unit in the jurisdiction. • The block length of the street shall not exceed 500-feet, measured between centerlines. • Traffic volumes on the street are not forecast to exceed 400 vehicle trips per day. • A minimum of two street connections shall be provided to each end of the street with the reduced width. The two connecting streets shall each connect to the larger street system to provide the intended alternate routes of access. A street system that has one street connection to the larger street network on one end and a loop/circle street on the other end with no outlet shall not be approved. 7 Movado Greens • Vertical curbs with attached 5-foot (minimum) wide sidewalks, or rolled curbs with 5-foot (minimum)wide detached sidewalks and 8-foot (minimum) wide planter strips, are required. Design Condition #3: Parking is allowed on both sides of a reduced width residential street with passing pockets that are created when two driveways are constructed near the same property line, where a 50-foot segment will not have on—street parking on the side of the street with the driveways. This provides fire trucks and other vehicles areas to move to the side of the street to allow another vehicle to pass when vehicles are parked on the street. Parking is allowed on both sides of a reduced width street when the following criteria are met: • The street is in a residential area. • The developer shall provide written approval from the appropriate fire department or emergency response unit in the jurisdiction. • Driveway locations are predetermined with curb cuts for the driveways to be installed when the street is constructed. The curb cuts shall be 20-feet wide. Each lot on the street will be —pairedll with an adjacent lot. If there are an odd number of lots, one lot at either end of the street will not be —paired.11 Each pair of lots shall locate its driveway 5- feet from the shared lot line of the pair. • Vertical curbs with attached 5-foot (minimum) wide sidewalks, or rolled curbs with 5-foot (minimum)wide detached sidewalks and 8-foot (minimum) wide planter strips, are required. • The lots cannot abut an alley. • Traffic volumes on the street are not forecast to exceed 400 vehicle trips per day. Sidewalk Policy: District Policy 7207.5.7 states that five-foot wide concrete sidewalk is required on both sides of all local street, except those in rural developments with net densities of one dwelling unit per 1.0 acre or less, or in hillside conditions where there is no direct lot frontage, in which case a sidewalk shall be constructed along one side of the street. Some local jurisdictions may require wider sidewalks. The sidewalk may be placed next to the back-of-curb. Where feasible, a parkway strip at least 8-feet wide between the back-of-curb and the street edge of the sidewalk is recommended to provide increased safety and protection of pedestrians and to allow for the planting of trees in accordance with the District's Tree Planting Policy. If no trees are to be planted in the parkway strip, the applicant may submit a request to the District, with justification, to reduce the width of the parkway strip. Detached sidewalks are encouraged and should be parallel to the adjacent roadway. Meandering sidewalks are discouraged. A permanent right-of-way easement shall be provided if public sidewalks are placed outside of the dedicated right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right- of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk. Sidewalks shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. Landscape Medians Policy: District policy 7207.5.16 states that landscape medians are permissible where adequate pavement width is provided on each side of the median to accommodate the travel lanes and where the following is provided: • The median is platted as right-of-way owned by ACHD. • The width of an island near an intersection is 12-feet maximum for a minimum distance of 150-feet. Beyond the 150-feet, the island may increase to a maximum width of 30-feet. • At an intersection that is signalized or is to be signalized in the future, the median width shall be reduced to accommodate the necessary turn lane storage and tapers. 8 Movado Greens • The Developer or Homeowners Association shall apply for a license agreement if landscaping is to be placed within these medians. • The license agreement shall contain the District's requirements of the developer including, but not limited to, a "hold harmless" clause; requirements for maintenance by the developer; liability insurance requirements; and restrictions. • Vertical curbs are required around the perimeter of any raised median. Gutters shall slope away from the curb to prevent ponding. c. Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct the entry portion of Gala Street, with a 10-foot wide center landscape island with 21-foot wide travel lanes on either side with vertical curb, and gutter within 54-feet of right-of-way with 8-foot wide planter strips and 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalks within an easement. West of the center landscape island the applicant is proposing to construct Gala Street as 33- foot wide local street sections with rolled curb and gutter within 35-feet of right-of-way with an 8-foot wide planter strip and 5-foot wide detached concrete sidewalk within an easement. The applicant has proposed to construct all other internal local streets as 29-foot wide local street sections with rolled curb, gutter, and 5-foot wide attached concrete sidewalk within 41- feet of right-of-way. d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal meets District policy, with the exception of the right-of-way widths. The applicant should be required to dedicate right-of-way to extend 2-feet behind the back of curb on all local streets. The center landscape island should be platted as right-of-way owned by ACHD. The applicant or the future homeowners association should enter into a license agreement with ACHD if landscaping is desired within the center landscape island. Parking is prohibited on one side of the 29-foot wide local street sections. The applicant should be required to dedicate additional right-of-way to total 42-feet on the 29-foot street section to accommodate the installation of signs. The applicant should be required to sign one side of the 29-foot wide street sections for"NO PARKING". The applicant should provide written fire department approval for use of the reduced street sections. A permanent right-of-way easement shall be provided if public sidewalks are placed outside of the dedicated right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right- of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk. Sidewalks shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. 5. Roadway Offsets a.

Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal meets District policy and should be approved, as proposed. 6. Driveways 6.1 Overland Road a. Existing Conditions: There is one 40-foot wide driveway onto Overland Road from the site. The driveway aligns centerline to centerline with Rolling Hills Drive, a public street on the north side of Overland Road across from the site. There is one 40-foot wide driveway located approximately 120-feet east of Movado Way. b. Policy Access Points Policy: District Policy 7205.4.1 states that all access points associated with development applications shall be determined in accordance with the policies in this section and Section 7202. Access points shall be reviewed only for a development application that is being considered by the lead land use agency. Approved access points may be relocated and/or restricted in the future if the land use intensifies, changes, or the property redevelops. Access Policy: District policy 7205.4.7 states that direct access to principal arterials is typically prohibited. If a property has frontage on more than one street, access shall be taken from the street having the lesser functional classification. If it is necessary to take access to the higher classified street due to a lack of frontage, the minimum allowable spacing shall be based on Table 1 b under District policy 7205.4.7, unless a waiver for the access point has been approved by the District Commission. Driveways, when approved on a principal arterial shall operate as a right-in/right-out only, and the District will require the construction of a raised median to restrict the left turning movements. Driveway Location Policy: District policy 7205.4.7 requires driveways located on principal arterial roadways to be located a minimum of 355-feet from the nearest intersection for a right- in/right-out only driveway. Full-access driveways are not allowed on principal arterial roadways. Successive Driveways: District policy 7205.4.7 Table 1 b, requires driveways located on principal arterial roadways with a speed limit of 40 MPH to align or offset a minimum of 400- feet from any existing or proposed driveway. Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7205.4.8 restricts high-volume driveways (100 VTD or more) to a maximum width of 36-feet and low-volume driveways (less than 100 VTD) to a maximum width of 30-feet. Curb return type driveways with 30-foot radii will be required for high-volume driveways with 100 VTD or more. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for low-volume driveways with less than 100 VTD. Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7205.4.8, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30- feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers in accordance with Table 2 under District Policy 7205.4.8. Temporary Access Policy: District Policy 7202.4.2 identifies a temporary access as that which "is permitted for use until appropriate alternative access becomes available". Temporary access may be granted through a development agreement or similar method, and the developer shall be responsible for providing a financial guarantee for the future closure of the driveway. Cross Access Easements/Shared Access Policy: District Policy 7202.4.1 states that cross access utilizes a single vehicular connection that serves two or more adjoining lots or parcels so that the driver does not need to re-enter the public street system. 10 Movado Greens c. Applicant's Proposal: The applicant has proposed to use the existing 40-foot wide driveway onto Overland Road that aligns with Rolling Hills Drive to access the site. The applicant has proposed to close the 40-foot wide driveway located approximately 120-feet east of Movado Way with vertical curb, gutter, and sidewalk to match the improvements on either side. d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal to use the driveway located across from Rolling Hills Drive is consistent with ACHD policy, as the driveway aligns centerline to centerline with Rolling Hills Drive on the north side of Overland Road across from the site and should be approved as a temporary full access driveway. This driveway may be restricted to right-in/right-out only in the future as traffic conditions warrant, as determined by ACHD. The driveway should be paved its full width at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of Overland Road into the site. The applicant's proposal to close the existing 40-foot wide driveway located 120-feet east of Movado Way should be approved, as proposed. The applicant should be required to close the driveway with vertical curb, gutter, and 7-foot wide attached concrete sidewalk to match the existing improvements on either side. 6.2 Movado Way a. Existing Conditions: There are no driveways onto Movado Way from the site. b. Policy: Access Policy: District Policy 7205.4.1 states that all access points associated with development applications shall be determined in accordance with the policies in this section and Section 7202. Access points shall be reviewed only for a development application that is being considered by the lead land use agency. Approved access points may be relocated and/or restricted in the future if the land use intensifies, changes, or the property redevelops. District Policy 7206.1 states that the primary function of a collector is to intercept traffic from the local street system and carry that traffic to the nearest arterial. A secondary function is to service adjacent property. Access will be limited or controlled. Collectors may also be designated at bicycle and bus routes. Driveway Location Policy (Signalized Intersection): District policy 7206.4.3 requires driveways located on collector roadways near a signalized intersection to be located outside the area of influence; OR a minimum of 440-feet from the signalized intersection for a full- access driveway and a minimum of 220-feet from the signalized intersection for a right- in/right-out only driveway. Dimensions shall be measured from the centerline of the intersection to the centerline of the driveway Driveway Location Policy (Stop Controlled Intersection): District policy 7206.4.4 requires driveways located on collector roadways near a STOP controlled intersection to be located outside of the area of influence; OR a minimum of 150-feet from the intersection, whichever is greater. Dimensions shall be measured from the centerline of the intersection to the centerline of the driveway. Successive Driveways: District policy 7206.4.5 Table 1, requires driveways located on collector roadways with a speed limit of 25 MPH and daily traffic volumes greater than 200 VTD to align or offset a minimum of 245-feet from any existing or proposed driveway. Successive Driveways: District policy 7206.4.5 Table 1, requires driveways located on collector roadways with a speed limit of 25 MPH and daily traffic volumes less than 200 VTD to align or offset a minimum of 150-feet from any existing or proposed driveway. Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7206.4.6 restricts high-volume driveways (100 VTD or more) to a maximum width of 36-feet and low-volume driveways (less than 100 VTD) to a maximum width of 30-feet. Curb return type driveways with 30-foot radii will be required for 11 Movado Greens high-volume driveways with 100 VTD or more. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for low-volume driveways with less than 100 VTD. Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7206.4.6, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30- feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers in accordance with Table 2 under District Policy 7206.4.6. Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing streets adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These improvements are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused driveways with curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs; traffic control devices; and other similar items. c. Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct 3 driveways onto Movado Way. Two of the driveways are proposed to align centerline to centerline and to be located approximately 175-feet south of Overland Road. The western driveway is proposed to be 24- feet wide and the east driveway is proposed to be 30-feet wide. The third driveway is proposed to be 30-feet wide and located approximately 355-feet south of Overland Road, offsetting the other driveways by 180-feet. d. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal for the driveways located 175-feet south of Overland Road meet ACHD's Driveway Location Policy, for a stop controlled intersection, however, the Overland Road/Movado Way intersection is anticipated to be signalized in the future. The application proposal does not meet the required offset from a signalized intersection which is 220-feet for a right-in/right-out driveway and 440-feet for a full access driveway. Staff prefers that the driveways be located to meet ACHD policy from a signalized intersection. If the applicant does not want to locate driveways as recommended, then the proposed locations can be approved as temporary full access driveways, these driveways may be restricted in the future when the intersection is signalized. The applicant should be required to construct all of the driveways as curb return type driveways with 30-foot radii. All of the driveways should be paved their full width at least 30- feet into the site beyond the edge of Movado Way. 7. Cross Access As part of ACHD's approval of the Silverstone Apartments staff recommended that a direct drive aisle and cross access easement be provided between the proposed apartments and Movado Way to provide additional access and travel options to the residents of the apartments. The current site plan shows the drive aisle and a direct connection between the apartment site and Movado Way. Staff is supportive of this proposal. 8. Tree Planters Tree Planter Policy: Tree Planter Policy: The District's Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in planters less than 8-feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet. 9. Landscaping Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACHD right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision 12 Movado Greens triangle at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans. 10. Other Access Overland Road is classified as a principal arterial roadway and Movado Way is classified as a collector roadway. Other than the access specifically approved with this application, direct lot access is prohibited to these roadways and should be noted on the final plat. D. Site Specific Conditions of Approval 1.

Movado, Meridian, Idaho EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Thompson Engineers, Inc. has been retained to prepare a traffic impact study for the proposed Movado Apartments,Residential Subdivision and Commercial Development in Meridian, Idaho. The project is located on Overland Road between Eagle Road and Cloverdale Road. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential traffic impacts resulting from the project and make recommendations for mitigation of those impacts. The study is prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Ada County Highway District. Proposed Development The project will be fully developed in at least three phases: a 312 unit apartment complex,a 463 single family dwelling unit and townhouse subdivision,and a 17.4 acre commercial/office development. The preliminary plat was not finalized at the time of this report. A preliminary site plan for the apartments is shown in Figure 2. It will be constructed as Phase 1. A preliminary site plan for the single family dwelling unit subdivision is shown in Figure 3.It will be constructed as Phase 2. A site plan for the commercial development has not been completed at this time. An application for this site is not being submitted. It will be constructed as the final phase. Traffic from the assumed development is included to fully review long term impacts. It is recommended that this report be reviewed and updated to reflect the proposed site plan, when an application for development is submitted. The site is expected to access the transportation system primarily via Overland Road and Cloverdale Road.The residential subdivision will also connect to existing stub streets to the west that will provide additional accessibility. Study Area The area of influence is anticipated to be Ada County,Idaho,including the City of Meridian. The primary impacts will be along Overland Road and Cloverdale Road. The study area will include the intersections of, I. Eagle Road and Overland Road D Cloverdale Road and Overland Road C Siiverstone Way and Overland Road C Rolling Hills Drive and Overland Road Conclusions Below are the findings of this report: E Based on the trip generation methods recommended in the Trip Generation Manual, Phase I will generate 2059 trips per day,of which 159 trips will occur during the AM peak hour and 188 trips will occur during the PM peak hour,For reference,trip generation for all three phases combined is included in the appendix of this report. ��Based on the trip generation methods recommended in the Trip Generation Manual, Phase 2 will generate 4055 trips per day,of which 329 trips will occur during the AM peak hour and 417 trips will occur during the PM peak hour.

C As a complete development with significant housing units, office and retail development, some trips will be captured internally, or at the adjacent Silverado Commercial development. G The site will access the transportation system via Overland Road, and via existing Copper Point Way and Pewter Falls St. that will access Eagle Road through Silverstone Commercial development. L The intersection of Eagle Road and Overland Road is currently operating near capacity. Improvements necessary for the intersection to operate at an acceptable level of service are included in the ACHD CIP for the planning period 2027-2031. The critical peak hour is in the AM peak hour. Site traffic comprises 5.2% of the total traffic at the intersection in the AM Peak Hour. L The intersection of Silverstane Way and Overland Road will operate at an acceptable level of service under background and total traffic conditions in the build out year.The critical peak hour is in the PM peak hour. The intersection of Rolling Hills Drive and Overland Road will operate at an acceptable level of service under background and total traffic conditions in the build out year.The critical peak hour is in the PM peak hour. The intersection of Cloverdale Road and Overland Road will operate at an acceptable level of service under Phase I background and total traffic conditions in the build out year.The critical peak hour is in the PM peak hour. The intersection of Cloverdale Road and Overland Road will operate at capacity under background traffic conditions in the Phase 2 build out year.The critical peak hour is in the PM peak hour. Additional lanes are required to provide additional capacity to the intersection. Improvements to the intersection are included in the ACHD CIP in the 2017-2022 planning period. Site traffic will comprise approximately 8.6%of the total traffic in the Phase 3 build out year. + r,,t,�s�! Overland Road is expected to operate at an acceptable level better than LOS E in the build out year based on the ACHD policy for principal arterial roads. I Cloverdale Road south of Overland Road is currently operating above recommended capacity based on the ACHD policy for arterial roads. In order to operate at an acceptable level of service, Cloverdale Road would need to be widened to five lanes. The ACHD CIP includes a project to widen Cloverdale Road in the 2017- 2022 planning period. C Cloverdale Road north of Overland is anticipated to operate at an acceptable level of service for the existing five lane section south of the freeway overpass. The freeway overpass is limited to two lanes, but does not have any tuming traffic on the overpass so the capacity is higher. The ACHD CEP includes a project to widen Cloverdale Road in the 2017-2022 planning period. i The access to Phase I will meet the guidelines for a right tum lane on Overland Road.
