Accessory Use Permit Approval for a Family Childcare Home for Five or
Fewer Children at 2215 E. Mackay Court, in the Sherbrooke Hollows
Subdivision, located in a R-4 Zone, by Sherrie Martin (File No. AUP-02-007).
We have reviewed the above referenced submittals and offer the following comments, as
conditions of approval. These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly
modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council:
APPLICATION SUMMARY
The applicant, Sherrie Martin, has requested approval of an Accessory Use Permit (AUP) for the
establishment of a "Family Childcare Home" in order to care for up to five children per day at
2215 E. Mackay Ct., in the Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision.
The Planning and Zoning Commission is required to hold a hearing for an AUP if there are any
objections that have been filed concerning the application. Objections to the proposed AUP are
required to be submitted within a 15-day comment period that begins on the first day of notice
publication in the Valley News. The planning and zoning staff has received three (3) objections
to the proposed daycare at this location within the aforementioned 15-day timeframe.
Ordinances pertaining to Accessory Use Permits and "Family Childcare Homes" are located in
sections 11-9-4A and 11-9-4B2 of the MCC.
LOCATION
The property is located at 2215 E. Mackay Ct., approximately 1/8th of a mile north of Victory
Road and %2 a mile east of Locust Grove.
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Family Childcare Home Standards (MCC 11 9 4B2) The following standards are listed as
minimum requirements for the establishment of a Family Childcare Home:

a. Secure and maintain a childcare license from the Idaho State Department of Health and
Welfare, Childcare Licensing Division, if required.
b. Acquire an occupancy certificate and/or building permit.
c. Provide one off-street parking space per employee which may be in the driveway of the
home.
d. Provide for child pickup area located off of arterial or collector streets.
e. Provide for screening of adjacent properties to protect children from adverse impacts
and to provide a buffer between properties.
f. Provide a fence of appropriate height/construction, to enclose play areas, protection
children from traffic on arterial or collector streets.
Staff finds that the applicant is in the process of obtaining a childcare license from the State of
Idaho, and that the submitted site plan provides the required parking, pickup area, fencing and
screening.
Letters of Objection- As mentioned above, staff has received three (3) letters of objection to the;
proposed daycare. The objections stem from the fact that the subdivision's CC&Rs prohibit:
home occupations, and that the applicant's home is allegedly being used for another home
occupation (a painting business) with several employees (in violation of the MCC).
The City does not have record of the issuance of an Accessory Use Permit for a home occupation
at this address. City Code Enforcement has been made aware of the alleged illegal painting
business. If it can be determined that there is another home occupation currently operating from
this address the existing home occupation will require an AUP pursuant to the requirements of
the MCC.
The City is not responsible for the enforcement of individual subdivision CC&Rs. The Home
Owners Association is the agency that is responsible for the implementation and enforcement of
the Sherbrooke Hollows Subdivision CC&Rs.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission consider the public testimony
(written and verbal) presented during the public hearing in order to determine if the proposed
daycare use will adversely affect other properties in the general vicinity.
