RE:
November 17,2005 Planning & Zoning Commission
Meeting Agenda Items - Publication Error
Frank at The Valley Times called our office this morning to alert us to the
fact that an error was made in the publication of the notices for the
November 17,2005 P & Z Commission agenda items. The notice for this
meeting was to be published on October 31 st and November 14t\ 2005.
The Valley Times did not publish the first notice on October 31 st. Frank
caught the error today as the item published for the first time. He was
very apologetic about the situation ~ this has rarely been a problem with
The Valley Times.
Affected are the Reserve Subdivision, Touchmark Center Subdivision and
Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision. After discussing the matter with the
City Attorney's Office and the Planning Department, we need to re-notice
the three projects in question. The earliest possible hearing date is
December 8, 2005 (as a special meeting) or December 15, 2005, which is
already a long agenda.
The City Clerk's Office and Planning Department requests your input as
to which meeting date these items should be re-noticed for. Thank you.

1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT'S REQUEST
The applicant, Landmark Development Group, LLC, is requesting approval of a Preliminary Plat with a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to construct up to ISO,OOO square feet of retail/restaurant/and office uses
on approximately 15.33 acres within the Sadie Creek Promenade development at the Southwest corner of
Ustick Road and Eagle Road/SH-SS. This is the first detailed CUP application and would be the first
commercial buildings constructed within the Kissler annexation project AZ-03.0 18. The 36.33-acre site
was approved for annexation with a Development Agreement (DA) in April 2004 under the name Kissler
Annexation (see File No. AZ-03-018). The DA (Instrument No. 104107406) requires that any future use
be approved either through a site specific CUP application or a Planned Development. A concept plan for
the overall site was submitted with the application for infonnation purposes (not for formal approval).
The Commission should note that a Variance application, submitted concurrently with this CUP/PP/AZ
application will be before the City Council on December 6, 200S, proposes one new approach to N. Eagle
Road/State Highway SS, for one right-in/right-out access driveway. The Idaho Transportation Department
(ITD) has not approved any approach penn its on this site. The Variance application pertains only to the
right-inlright-out access lying approximately 306 feet south of Us tick Road. The overall design of the site
is paramount on the approval of the Eagle Road approach. Ifthe City Council denies the approach, Staff
feels the conditions contained within this report and the amended Development Agreement for the IS.33
acres would sufficiently address the interconnectivity ofthe site as a public street access to Ustick Road
and two approved approaches have been provided for by ACHD.
2. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval with conditions of the subject applications (AZ-OS-OSO, PP-OS-OS3, and
CUP-OS-049). Staff is recommending that the Commission require the applicant to submit detailed
elevations for the buildings facing east, west and south (facing residential, and Eagle and Ustick Roads) to
comply with Section 11-3A-19 of the Unified Development Code (UDC) and to add a new 8-foot wide
walkway in the parking lot. While the Ada County Highway District (ACHD) Commission will not hold a
hearing on this application until November 9, 200S, the ACHD staff report had not been issued at the time
ofthis report. ACHD staff does not believe it is necessary for the City of Meridian to postpone the public
hearing on Sadie Creek Subdivision because all roadway improvements are being conditioned in
accordance with their standards.

addressed during detailed CUP review and building design review but the design appears to
meet the minimum standards of the UDC parking requirements.
n. Summary of Proposed Streets and/or Access (private, public, common drive, etc.):
. The applicant is proposing one new access point to Eagle Road/SH55 to serve
the Sadie Creek Promenade project at approximately 400 feet south ofthe
U stick/Eagle Intersection.
As noted above, ITD must issue a right-inlright-out pennit for this access, and the access
is further contingent on the Meridian City Council granting a variance to UDC ll-3H. In
addition, the recorded DA between the applicant and the City requires either a public or
private street be constructed parallel to Eagle Road/SH55 that may connect to the north
boundary and may also connect to Eagle Road, if allowed by ITD at a point to be
detennined by ACHD. This project along with the Bienville Project south of the site will
connect with Sadie Creek Avenue, a proposed public street to meet the frontage road
requirement and possible future connection to Eagle Road.
In addition, the applicant is proposing three new access points to Ustick Road at the
following locations:
. Driveway #1 - 400 feet west of Eagle (right-in/right-out with center median)
. Driveway #2 - 600 feet west of Eagle (full access)
. Driveway #3 - 1,100 feet west of Eagle (full access public street (Sadie Creek
Avenue) with proposed traffic signal)
Ustick Road, from Leslie Drive to Ally Street (on the east side of Eagle Road), including
the Eagle Road intersection, has just been widened and improved to 5 lanes. The
intersection was widened to include dual left turn lanes.
The applicant's CUP site plan shows a new public, commercial street extending south of
Ustick Road, beginning approximately ~ mile west of Eagle Road/SH55. The
preliminary plat (Sheet PP-l) shows this roadway (Sadie Creek Avenue) as a 50-foot
street section, continuing as a public street approximately 165 feet east of the western
boundary to the south property line. The area (Kissler Annexation site) concept plan
shows the road connecting to the property south of the site with a looped design and
possible connection to Eagle Road through the proposed Bienville Subdivision. The area
plan shows private, internal driveways connecting to this public street; such driveways
run mostly north/south connecting Sadie Creek Avenue to Ustick Road.
For a detailed report on both ITD's and ACHD's actions and comments, please see the
letters/reports submitted with the application.
6. AGENCY COMMENTS MEETING On October 28th 2005, staff held an agency comments
meeting. The agencies and departments present included: Meridian Fire Department, Meridian
Meridian Public Works Department, and the Sanitary Services Company. Staff has included all
comments and recommended actions as Conditions of Approval in Exhibit C.
7. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The subject site is designated 'Mixed
Use-Regional' on the Future Land Use Map. In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, this designation
is derIDed in part as an area that is situated in highly visible or transitioning parts of the City where
innovative and flexible design opportunities are encouraged. The MU-R has no upper limit on the square
footage ofnon~residential uses and is intended to allow a broad range of uses.

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF 11117/2005
Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the
proposed development (staff analysis in italics below policy):
.
Require that development projects have plaIUled for the provision of all public services,
(Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1)
When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the
subject property, The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands
proposed to be annexed in thefol/owing manner:
. The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Rural Fire
District Once annexed the lands will be under the jurisdiction of the Meridian
City Fire Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the
Meridian Rural Fire Department,
The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada County Sheriff's
Office. Once annexed the lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police
Department (MPD).
The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained
by the Ada County Highway District (ACHD). This service will not change,
The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District #2, This
service will not change,
The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This
service will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer no
revenue loss as a result of the subject annexation,
.
.
.
.
.
Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by the Meridian Building Department,
the Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian
Wastewater Department, the Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing
Services, and Sanitary Services Company.
Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective B: Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities
within the Impact Area.
Staff finds that the site is designated for MU-R on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use
Map, Although strictly commercial uses have not been spec~fically planned for this property
on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map and through the Development Agreement
from the annexation, the overall site plan when combined with the proposed Bienville
Subdivision meets the general class~fications for mixed use regional.
.
Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective B, Action 5: Locate new community commercial areas on
arterials or collectors near residential areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining
residential areas,
Ustick Road is classified as an arterial roadway, The applicant is proposing access from the
adjoining commercial areas from micropaths, sidewalks and shared streets which will
provide future connection to residential areas west of the site along Ustick Road. Staff
believes that the commercial areas proposed compliment the existing and planned residential
areas in the vicinity.
.
Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D: Encourage appropriate land uses along transportation
corridors.
Staff believes that the proposed land uses are appropriate along the adjoining transportation
corridors (Ustick Road and Eagle Road),

Arterial will be at intersections only, and spaced at one-half mile intervals in urban areas.
ITD allows approaches (other than intersections) in special cases and on a temporary basis.
The Eagle Road access shall be eliminatedfrom this project.
.
Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 5: Require appropriate landscape and buffers
along transportation corridor (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.).
The applicant is proposing to construct appropriate buffers along all of the adjacent arterial
streets. By Ordinance, a minimum 25-foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to
residential uses and 35-foot wide landscape buffer to Gateway Corridors. The landscape
plan shows the appropriate landscape buffers.
Staff also finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be applicable to this
application:
.
"Require all new parking lots to provide landscaping in internal islands." (Chapter V, Goal
III, Obj. D, #3, page 43)
"Eagle Road is the major north~south arterial in Ada County. The capacity of this arterial
should be protected by minimizing the number and location of private driveway access
colUlections to this important roadway. The City should recognize, adopt, and help implement
the Eagle Road Access Control Study, prepared by ACHD in 1997." (Chapter VI, page 71)
"The capacity of arterial. . .roadways can be greatly diminished by excessive driveway
colUlections to the roadways. The City should cooperate with ACHD to minimize access
points on arterial. . .roadways as development applications are reviewed." (Chapter VI, page
72)
"Develop methods, such as cross-access agreements, frontage roads, to reduce the number of
existing access points on to arterial streets." (Chapter VI, Goal II, Obj. A, #12, page 79).
"Identify transitional zones to buffer commercial and residential uses, to allow uses such as
offices and other low intensity uses." (Chapter VII, Goal I, Obj. B, #7, page 102)
"Restrict curb cuts and access points on. . . arterial streets." (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Obj. D,
#5, page 107)

8. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE
a. Allowed Uses in the Commercial Districts: UDC Table 11-2B-2 lists retail
store/restaurant/drivethrul officel financial institute uses as permitted uses in the C-G zoning
district.
b. Pwpose Statement of Zone: The purpose ofthe Commercial Districts is to provide
for the retail and service needs of the community in accord with the Meridian Comprehensive
Plan. Four Districts are designated which differ in the size and scale of commercial structures
accommodated in the district, the scale and mix of allowed commercial uses, and the location
of the district in proximity to streets and highways. C-G General Retail And Service
Commercial District: The purpose ofthe C-G district is to provide for commercial uses which
Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision
File Numbers Page 7
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNiNG DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF I I/I 7/2005
are customarily operated entirely or almost entirely within a building; to provide for a review
of the impact of proposed commercial uses which are auto and service oriented and are located
in close proximity to major highway or arterial streets; to fulfill the need of travel-related
services as well as retail sales for the transient and pennanent motoring public. All such
districts shall be connected to the municipal water and sewer systems of the city, and shall not
constitute strip commercial development and encourage clustering of commercial
development.
c. General Off-Street Parking Standards (from UDC 11-3C-S):
. The following standards shall apply for off-street vehicle parking for nonresidential uses: ill
all Commercial Districts the requirement shall be one (I) space for every five hundred (SOO)
square feet of gross floor area.
.
Type A spaces shall be not less than twelve feet (12') in width and thirty-five feet (3S') in
length. Type B spaces shall be not less than fifteen feet (IS') in width and sixty-five feet (6S')
in length. All spaces shall have
d. Structures Subject to Design Standards (l1~3A-19.B.S): All structures on property adjacent to an
entryway coITidor (Ustick/Eagle Roads) are subject to the design standards listed in this section.
e. Outdoor storage/refuse areas (11-3A-12): Outdoor utility meters, HV AC equipment, trash
dumpsters, trash compaction and other service functions shall be incorporated into the overall
design of buildings and landscaping so that the visual and acoustic impacts of these functions are
fully contained and out of view from adjacent properties and public streets.
9. ANALYSIS
9a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation
The PP/AZ/CUP application substantially complies with the Unified Development Code.
However, there are several areas of clarification and some modifications required to both the site
plan and building elevations in order for staff to recommend full approval of the application.
Below are several special considerations for the P&Z Commission to review at the public
hearing:
Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation
1. AZ Application (AZ-OS-OSO): Based on the policies and goals contained in the
Comprehensive Plan and the general compliance of the proposed development with
the Zoning Ordinance, Staff believes that this is a good location for the proposed
development. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of the required facts and
findings for a Zoning Amendment.
The annexation legal description submitted with the application (stamped on
September 15, 2005 by Hugh Edwards, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the
existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian.
The applicant will be responsible for all costs associated with the sewer and water
service extension. Any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this
project will have to be removed from their domestic service when services are
available from the City of Meridian. Wells may be used for non-domestic purposes
such as landscape ilTigation.

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF II/17/2005
All future development of the subject property shall be constructed in accordance with
City of Meridian ordinances in effect at the time of development. All future uses shall
not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of
operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare by
reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors.
UDC 11-5B-3D provides the P&Z Commission and City Council the authority to
require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement with the City of
Meridian that may require some written commitment for all future uses. Due to the
close vroximitv of existing and future residential uses. and the lack of a detailed
olanned develovment. staff believes that a Develovment AlITeement is necessary to
ensure that this provertv is develoved in a fashion that is consistent with the
comprehensive vlan desÎ!mation and does not nellativelv imvact nearby vroverties.
Staff believes that the Development Agreement should include the following
provisions:
Phasin2: Plan: Generally, the applicant anticipates the phasing plan to begin with the
commercial lots near the Ustick Road/Eagle Road intersection and then continue along
Ustick Road. Construction is anticipated to reflect market demand and construction
needs. Staff is supportive of this request but believes that some of the amenities
proposed with the development should be constructed prior to the development build
out. Therefore, staff recommends that prior to issuance of any certificate of zoning
compliance all landscaping shall be constructed along the western property boundary
and along Ustick Road to the point of connection with Sadie Creek Avenue. These
office lots should include either a permanent easement or be redesigned to include
landscaping in common lots.
Non-Residential Buildin~s: The applicant has requested a maximum of 150,282
square feet of retail/restaurant/office spaces. Staff proposes to limit the applicant to
their request. The maximum square footage of one single building shall not exceed Y2
of the maximum request.
Office buildings (western property boundary) All buildings along the western property
boundary shall be single story buildings designed to discourage views and access
facing the west, unless required for emergency access. Furthermore, these office lots
shall have hours of operation consistent with office operations which have been
detennined to be 6am -lOpm.
Drive Thru Sevaration Reauest: The applicant has requested the drive thru spacing
requirement be reduced from 300' to 240'. Since the site plan is conceptual in nature
staff feels that the applicant shall design the site to meet the 300' standard separation
for drive thru uses with this application.
Access to SH 55/ Ea~le Road The applicant has requested an access point to Eagle
Road. According to ITD records the applicant has not submitted a request for access
pennit and is not vested with an access point for this location upon change in use. All
access for Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision shall be taken from U stick Road at
points detennined by ACHD.
Uses: Lots 1 and 2 of Block 2 of the site plan dated September 15, 2005 are for Office
Uses only. Not retail uses shall be located on these lots. All other lots shall be limited
to Office/RetaiVRestaurant/Drive thru uses and General Commercial uses listed as
pennitted in UDC Table 11-2B~2. Any uses (excepting Drive thru) not listed as
permitted shall be subject to conditional approval.
Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAfF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF 11/17/2005
2. PP Application (PP-O5-053): The proposed preliminary plat substantially complies
with the Zoning Ordinance.
Special Considerations:
Sidewalks: The applicant is proposing to construct 5-foot wide sidewalks on some of
the internal streets/drive aisles. The sidewalks may be detached from the curb with a
5-foot wide landscape strip. The proposed landscape strips do not include trees, only
grass. The applicant is proposing to plant trees on the back side of the sidewalks, but
staff believes that the trees should be planted between the curb and the sidewalk to
provide the pedestrians with cover and to make the streetscape more attractive. In
accordance with the recently passed ACHD planter width standards, the width of the
planter strip between the sidewalk and the curb should be increased to a minimum of
8-feet wide and include Class II trees. Since the applicant has submitted a plan
which is conceptual in nature staff feels the sidewalk locations shall be made
consistent with the UDC including drive aisles which shall include at a minimum a 5'
attached sidewalk. The second drive aisle access point to Ustick Road shall be
designed with the private street sections as listed in UDC 11-3F and subject to
including sidewalks.
Land Use Buffers: UDC requires landscape buffers between different land uses. Per
UDC 11-3B-9, a 25~foot wide landscape buffer is required between single-family
homes and C~G zoned property. The UDC requires the land use buffer to be provided
by the higher intensity use and to be located on the building site of the higher
intensity use, unless the adjacent and higher intensity use has not provided the buffer.
The applicant is showing a 30~foot wide buffer between the single-family homes and
the office lots on the landscape plan, but the buffer is not shown on the preliminary
plat. The applicant should be required to graphically depict a 3D-foot wide landscape
easement on the plat along the lots that abut the single-family lots. Said buffer shall
contain materials in accordance with ODC 11-3B-9 and not include impervious
surfaces such as parking areas or driveways. See Exhibit B below.
LandscaDe Street Buffers:
Arterials: UDC 11-2B requires a 35-foot wide street buffer along classified
arterial roadways and entryway corridors. Eagle Road and Ustick Road are
classified as Arterial Roads. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is
proposing to construct a 35-foot wide street buffer along Ustick Road and Eagle
road. The applicant should be required to depict the required street buffers on the
face of the final plat in an easement or place the required buffers in common lots
as per UDC 11-3B. See Exhibit B below.
Commercial Streets: UDC 11-2B requires a lO-foot wide street buffer along
commercial roadways. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is
proposing to construct a lO-foot wide street buffer along both sides of Sadie
Creek Avenue. However, the street buffer easements are not labeled on the plat.
The applicant should be required to depict the required 10-foot wide street buffer
easements along Sadie Creek Avenue on the face of the final plat.
Ditches. Laterals. and Canals: There are several irrigation laterals that bisect this
parcel. Per UDC 11-3A-6, all irrigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of
natural waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the area
being subdivided shall be tiled. The applicant is proposing to tile all of the irrigation
facilities located on site. See Exhibit B below.
Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision
File Numbers Page 10
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF 11/17/2005
Pressure Irri~ation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems
be supplied by a year-round source of water (UDC 11-3A-15). The applicant should
be required to utilize any existing surface or well water for the primary source. If a
surface or well source is not available, a single-point connection to the culinary water
system shall be required. If a single-point connection is used, the developer will be
responsible for the payment of assessments for the common areas prior to signature
on the final plat by the City Engineer. An underground, pressurized irrigation system
should be installed to all landscape areas per the approved specifications and in
accordance with City Code. See Site Exhibit B below.
Fencing:: The applicant is not showing any fencing on any of the submitted plans. A
detailed fencing plan should be submitted upon application of the final plat (UDC 11-
3A- 7). If pennanent fencing is not provided, temporary construction fencing to
contain debris must be installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building
pemrit. All fencing should be installed in accordance with City Code. See Exhibit B
below.
Cross-access Internal: There are some commercia110ts that do not have ftontage on a
public street. Instead the applicant is proposing to provide cross-access easements to
the lots that do not have public street ftontage. Because several of the proposed lots
do not have frontage on a public street, the applicant should provide a cross
parking/cross access agreement for all of the lots within the office and commercial
portions of the subdivision to use the driveways and parking aisles. The site will be
redesigned if not granted access to Eagle Road by the Meridian City Council and at
least one of the non-signalized access points to Ustick Road shall be designed to
serve as a commercial collector for interconnectivity to the south and vehicular
movement in the north/south direction. Maintenance of the drive aisles and parking
areas should be provided for in a note on the face of the [mal plat, AND/OR in a
document such as CCRs. See Exhibit B below.
Cross-access South: The applicant shall be required to provide cross access to the
parcels south of the site. The project is a portion of a larger site project (Kissler
Annexation) and the sites shall maintain consistent traffic flow for the entire site.
Eag:le Road Access: The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) has a policy for
access to a Type IV Principal Arterial will be at intersections only, and spaced at one-
half mile intervals in urban areas. ITD allows approaches (other than intersections) in
special cases and on a temporary basis. The access point shown at approximately
400 feet south of the Ustick Eagle Road intersection shall be eliminated as it does not
meet criteria of either ITD or the Meridian Comprehensive Plan.
CUP Application (CUP-05-049): The proposed Conditional Use request substantially
complies with the Zoning Ordinance.
1. Loading: Space Parking: UDC 11-3C-8 requires off-street loading spaces for commercial
uses. The Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) application shall clearly demonstrate
that both a Type A and Type B space are available on site, located near the refuse/service
area behind the building.
2. Elevations: The applicant has not submitted building elevations of the proposed
structures. The application lists the proposed building materials, including stone, brick,
stucco and timber to be accented with chrome, aluminum and gloss painted trims. UDC
Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision
File Numbers Page 11
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF 11117/2005
11~3A-19 requires all structures on property adjacent to an entryway colTidor to comply
with the design standards listed in this section. Staff's interpretation of the UDC is that
the applicant may choose to place the "primary entrance" on an elevation other than the
public street side. However, the public street elevations (Ustick Road and the new road
on west boundary) must still meet the other standards listed in 11-3A-19 (except for the
primary entrance standards).
The elevations will need to be reviewed prior to issuance of CZC to comply with the
following ordinance standards:
a) Facades: Facades visible from a public street shall incorporate modulations in
the façade, roof line recesses, and projections along a minimum of twenty percent
(20%) of the length of the facade.
b) Rooflines: Roof design shall demonstrate two or more of the following: a)
overhanging eaves, b) sloped roofs; c) two (2) or more roof planes; d) varying
parapet heights; and e) cornices.
c) Mechanical equipment: All ground-level and rooftop mechanical equipment
shall be screened to the height of the unit as viewed from the property line.
d) Color and Materials: Exterior building walls shall demonstrate the appearance
of high-quality materials of stone, brick, wood or other native materials. Smooth-
faced concrete block, tilt-up concrete panels, or prefabricated steel panels are
prohibited except as accent materials.
3. Refuse/Service Area Screen: Neither the Site Plan or Landscape Plan call~out how or if
the refuse/service area on the south side of the buildings will be screened. UDC 11-3A-12
requires the visual and acoustic impacts of these functions are fully contained and out of
view from adjacent properties and public streets. The applicant's CZC application must
clearly demonstrate how this standard is met.
4. Cross Access: The property to the south is dependent on two points of access for
interconnectivity and is directly tied with the existing Development Agreement for
providing a frontage road to Eagle Road. The applicant has provided a design consistent
with two points of access, one point at Sadie Creek Avenue and the second point for the
drive aisle approximately 700 feet west of the Ustick/Eagle intersection. There shall be
cross access with a section designed to meet private street standards with the second point
of access not designated as a public street.
9b. Staff Recommendation: Based on the above analysis, staff [rods the AZIPP/CUP
applications substantially confonn with the adopted DA, Comprehensive Plan policies and ODC
standards. As noted under "Special Considerations," we recommend the building elevations be
submitted in compliance with the entryway coITidor standards, the access point to Eagle Road be
eliminated and redesigned, and a private street section for cross access provided to the south be
added to the preliminary plat in place of the proposed Eagle Road access. We recommend
approval of the AZIPP/CUP application with the conditions shown in Exhibit B.

Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision
Exhibit C Page 6
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF 11/17/2005
Exhibit D, Required Findings from Zoning Ordinance
1. Annexation Findings:
The commission and council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each
proposed zoning amendment in tenus of the following standards and shall find adequate
evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning amendment:
A. Will the new zoning be hannonious with and in accordance with the comprehensive plan
and, if not, has there been an application for a comprehensive plan amendment;
In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'Mixed Use Regional' is defined as areas
including commercial and residential development consistent with auto and service
oriented uses. Staff finds that the requested General Commercial (C-G) zoning
designation is in accord with the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map, which
delineates the subject property as "Mixed Use~Regional". The pulþose of the C-G district
is "to provide for a review of the impact of proposed commercial uses wmch are auto and
service oriented and are located in close proximity to major highway or arterial streets; to
fulfill the need of travel-related services as well as retail sales for the transient and
pennanent motoring public."
D.
Staff finds that the proposed zoning is in general confonnance with the comprehensive
plan (please see Section 7 of the Staff Report for detailed analysis of specific
comprehensive plan action items that apply to tills development).
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the future;
Concurrent with the annexation and zoning application, the applicant has submitted a
preliminary that proposes commercial products for the subject site (PP-05-053/CUP-05-
049). Staff does not anticipate that the applicant plans to rezone the subject property in
the future if the accompanying PP application is approved.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the fashion that
would be allowed under the new zoning - for example, a residential area turning into
commercial area by means of conditional use pennits;
Staff finds that the various proposed commercial uses would be allowed (pennitted)
within the requested C-G zone. The entire site is being proposed as commercial and
upon build out staff would not anticipate changes of usage for this site.
Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas wmch may dictate that the area
should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new railroad access been
developed or planned or adjacent area being developed in a fasmon similar to the
proposed rezone area;
Several road improvement projects are occurring in the near vicinity to the site or are
approacmng completion that are tied in with the approved and lli1der construction
projects, specifically Ustick Road. The subject property is generally sUITounded by
rapidly developing commercial properties. Staff does not find that there has been a
change in the area that dictates that tills property should be rezoned. Staff recommends
that the Commission and Council rely on staffs analysis, public testimony received and
any comments submitted from any other agencies or departments regarding whether this
property should be annexed.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
hannonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the
Sadie Creek Promenade Subdivision
Exhibit D Page 1
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF 11117/2005
general vicinity and that such use will not change the essential character of the same area;
The applicant has not submitted elevations for the proposed commercial units but has
agreed to use the design guidelines for commercial proj ects along gateway corridors
when designing building facades. Staff finds that the proposed C-G zone with the
proposed retail, office and restaurant uses, if designed, constructed and operated in
accordance with adopted city ordinances, should be hannonious and appropriate in
appearance with the intended character of the vicinity. The site is intended for
commercial uses which, based on the Comprehensive Plan description, will have such
uses as retail, wholesale, service and office uses, as well as appropriate public uses such
as government offices. Staff finds that the proposed development will change the
existing character of the area, which is still largely rural. However, the proposed
development is generally hannonious with the intended character envisioned by the
Comprehensive Plan. Staff does not find that the proposed zoning/uses will adversely
change the essential character of area.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring
uses;
The Commission and Council should rely on public testimony (oral and written) to
detennine whether or not the proposed use will be disturbing or hazardous to the existing
or future neighboring uses. Staff does not anticipate that the proposed uses will be
disturbing to future or existing neighbors, as long as landscaping, fencing and other
recommended conditions are exercised. Further, staff does not anticipate that the
proposed uses will be hazardous as long as the applicant complies with the conditions
contained in Exhibit C and all City Code provisions.
G. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as
highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water,
sewer; or will the person responsible for the establishment of the proposed zoning
amendment be able to provide adequately any of such services;
The applicant will be responsible for the extension of all utilities necessary to serve this
proposed development. Pennanent sanitary sewer service to this development is to be
provided by the extension of sewer in Ustick Road. The applicant will be responsible for
the extension of utilities to and through this proposed development. Sizing and routing
shall be coordinated with the Public Works Department.
Other urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able
to extend such services to the site. Staff finds that the subject site is proposed for
development in a fashion similar to other properties in the area.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay park and highway
impact fees.

should reference any written and/or verbal testimony submitted by any public service
provider, regarding their ability to adequately service this project.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and
services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local street
infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The primary public
costs to serve the future residents will be fire, police and school facilities and services.
Staff finds there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost and that the
proposed zoning and subsequent development will not be detrimental to the community's
economic welfare.
I.
Will the proposed uses not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and
conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general
welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
Staff fmds that the proposed annexation and the development of this site will not involve
uses that will create nuisances that would be detrimental to the general welfare of the
surrounding area.
Staff recognizes the fact that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of this
subdivision; however, staff does not believe that the amount generated will be
detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Staff does not anticipate the proposed
annexation and subsequent uses will create excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare,
or odors.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed as not
to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public streets;
The applicant is proposing to construct one public street access to Sadie Creek Avenue
and two internal accesses to the existing public street system. ACHD is supportive of the
proposed streets and driveway locations. If is designed and constructed as required by the
ACHD and the City, staff does not believe that the subdivision will create interference
with traffic on the surrounding public streets. Staff requires the exclusion of an access
point to Eagle Road, the Eagle Road corridor study does not support an access point to
this property and the site shall be redesigned as to eliminate the access to Eagle Road.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature ofmajor
importance; and
There are few mature trees on this property at the residential areas. Any existing trees
larger than 4" caliper that are removed should be mitigated for, per the Landscape
Ordinance. Staff finds that the proposed development will not result in the destruction,
loss or damage of any natural feature(s) of major importance if developed under these
conditions.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public testimony that
may be presented to detennine whether or not the proposed development may destroy or
damage a natural or scenic feature(s) of major importance of which staffis unaware.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the city.
In accordance with the fìndinf!s listed above. staff finds that the annexation/zoninf! of this

Please see Annexation Findings Item A above.
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed development;
Please see Annexation Findings Items G and H above.

Commission and Council reference any public testimony that may be presented to
detennine whether or not the proposed subdivision may cause health, safety or
environmental problems of which staff is unaware.
3. Conditional Use Findings
The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each
proposed conditional use in terms of the following, and may approve a conditional use permit if
they shall.fìnd evidence presented at the hearing(s} is adequate to establish:
1. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and meet all the dimensional
and development regulations in the district in which the use is located.
Staff finds that the site is 15.33 acres and is large enough to accommodate all required parking,
landscaping, loading and other standard regulations required by the UDC.
2. That the proposed use will be hannonious with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan and in accord
with the requirements of this Title.
Staff finds that the proposed retail/restaurant/office/drive thru uses meets the objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan as listed in Section 7 of this report. Some ofthe standards of the UDC are
not currently being shown by the applicant's site plan and building elevations. Specifically, the
site plan needs to reflect the elimination of access to Eagle Road and building elevations need
to be submitted in compliance with the entryway corridor design standards. Ifthe applicant
makes these changes, this finding will be met.

3. That the design, construction, operation and maintenance will be compatible with other uses in
the general neighborhood and with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and
that such use will not adversely change the essential character of the same area.
Staff finds that the proposed retail uses complies with the uses permitted in the C-G zone and
those uses allowed under the Development Agreement. The building height, parking layout,
landscape buffer widths and other dimensional standards shown in the application generally
comply with the UDC. The property adjacent to the west boundary to approximately 320 feet
south of Us tick Road is zoned R-2 and is proposed as low density residential uses. The
applicant will be required to construct the proposed buffer between land uses to address this
less intensive use.
4. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions ofthe approval imposed, will not
adversely affect other property in the vicinity.
Staff finds that the proposed development will not adversely affect other property in the
vicinity if the applicant complies with all CuPlPP/AZ conditions and constructs all
improvements and operates the use in accordance with the UDC standards. Traffic volumes
will significantly increase. However, both ACHD and ITD have reviewed the application and
placed special conditions on the applicant. These standards may include lighting, screening,
landscaping and other areas intended to mitigate potentially harmful effects.
5. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such
as highways, streets, schools, parks, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water, and sewer.
Staff finds that sanitary sewer, domestic water and irrigation are available to the subject
property. A recently completed a public-private partnership to improve Ustick Road to five
lanes and ACHD is planning to install a traffic signal at the west boundary of the site shown at
Sadie Creek Avenue. The commercial land use should not have any impact on the school
system. Please refer to other comments prepared by the Meridian Fire Department.
6. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional costs for public facilities and services
and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare ofthe community.
Staff finds that the applicant will pay to extend the sanitary sewer and water mains into the
site. No additional capital facility costs are expected from the City. The additional commercial
structures will improve the tax base for the City of Meridian. The applicant and/or future
property owners will be required to pay highway impact fees.
7. That the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials, equipment and
conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare
by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors.
Staff finds that the proposed development will not involve uses that will create nuisances that
would be detrimental to the general welfare of the surrounding area.

Staff recognizes the fact that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of this
subdivision; however, staff does not believe that the amount generated will be detrimental to
the general welfare of the public. Staff finds the future buffer between land uses along the
west boundary and the Ustick/Eagle Road street buffers will help to mitigate noise, fumes and
glare created by the additional traffic.
8.
That the proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or
historic feature considered to be of major importance.
The applicant will be required to comply with all state and local ordinances regarding
conveyance of water and maintaining historic points of access. The Ada County Historic
Preservation Council's Site Inventory does not show any structures or places listed for the
subject property. We are unaware of any other scenic or historic features.
