DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - 3
Adopt the Recommendations of the Planning and Zoning and Engineering staff as follows:
Trash Enclosure: The applicant has submitted a revised Site Plan showing the trash
enclosures and the building elevations. A trash enclosure shall be added to the
gymnasium lot and screened in accordance with Ordinance 11-12-1-C. Applicant shall
come to an agreement with SSC regarding size and dimension specifics on trash
enclosure to be placed in the area of the planned gymnasium.
Signs: Applicant's intent is to utilize the existing monument sign presently located on
the southwest corner of the property. If the Applicant provides information on additional
signage he shall addreSs the number, location, and maximum size of any proposed
signs--wall-mounted or freestanding. All such signs shall require a separate sign permit
and shall be subject to design review by P&Z staff. Given the historic nature of the
structure and its relationship to Old Town, context-sensitive signage is important to blend
with the character of the building.
Parking: The proposed use requires 215 parking spaces, but only 159 spaces are
provided on the subject property, with an additional 33 possibly available via a cross-
parking agreement, leaving a deficit of 23 parking stalls. The total parking space issue
shall be reviewed and addressed at the time Cole Valley Christian shall be in need of the
parking spaces. Applicant shall obtain a variance prior to applying for a Certificate of
Zoning Compliance for the gym. Applicant's failure to obtain a variance shall result in
down-sizing or elimination of the gym. The Applicant shall address the anticipated
parking demand for the office uses that will remain, as well as the proposed school, when
such variance is needed. Upon satisfactory resolution of the parking demand versus
supply issue, a variance to the parking requirements would be supported. Also, the
Applicant shall supply written verification that the Apostolic Bible Church is amenable to
the cross-parking agreement and shall work to finalize such cross-parking agreement.
°
Planters/Parking Lot: The proposed site plan does not include planters within the interior
of the parking lot. The parking lot is existing and is being modified less than 50%. The
requirements of Ordinance 12-13-11-4-B apply to this project, which means that the
perimeter landscaping and street buffers are required, but the internal islands are not
required until the parking lot is replaced or altered more than 50%. The perimeter
landscape strips shown on the proposed landscape plan are sufficient to meet this
requirement.
Existing Trees: The existing large maple trees along E. 2 ½ Street, adjacent to the
proposed gym, shall be protected during construction as noted on the proposed plan.
Applicant shall verify that the proposed new trees are sufficient to mitigate for the one
existing tree proposed for removal. The existing trees surrounding the Meridian Office &
Convention Center shall also be protected and retained.
6. Additional Landscaping: Many of the existing landscape strips contain trees, but the
ground surrounding them is left heavily populated by weeds. Additional landscaping

shall be added to all such areas so that all landscape areas are fully vegetated with grass,
shrubs, and/or vegetative groundcover. A pressurized irrigation system shall be required
to all landscape areas. This shall require some modifications to the existing pressurized
irrigation system, as the current system provides bubblers to the trees only, but does not
currently water the ground.
Existing Structures: The proposed gymnasium site contains two existing structures,
which it appears shall be demolished as part of this project. The Applicant shall verify
whether or not the existing structures will be demolished when the gymnasium is built.
Handicapped parking: The Applicant's architect (CTA Architects) shall verify whether
or not the proposed site plan meets the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities
Act, and if not, provide a revised site plan showing how the parking shaI1 be modified.
Building Height: The proposed gymnasium shall not exceed thirty-five (35) feet high per
the Maximum Building Height shown in Ordinance 11-9-1. Building elevations were
submitted with the application, but the height is difficult to read, though it appears that it
may be 33'-6". The Applicant shall verify the actual height. Applicant shall present a
revised elevation plan that shows more variation to the gym design on the Carlton Street
side and a revised site plan showing the planned trash enclosure.
Setbacks: The proposed structure is subject to all required setbacks of Ordinance 11-9-1
for the L-O zone. The submitted site plan appears to meet all of the required setbacks.
Water/sewer: This facility is currently served by the City of Meridian's sanitary sewer
and water systems. Existing sanitary sewer and water assessments shall be compared
with the anticipated impact, to determine whether additional assessments are warranted.
If additional assessments are warranted, Applicant shall pay for them with the issuance of
his building permit for tenant improvements.
As part of a conditional use permit, the City of Meridian may impose additional
restrictions/conditions.
Existing trees shall be protected and retained in accordance with Meridian City Code 12-
13-13.
Off-street parking shall be provided in accordance with the City of Meridian Zoning and
Development Ordinance and/or as detailed in site-specific requirements. All parking and
areas of circulation shall be improved with a hard surface in accordance with Meridian
City Code 11-13-4-D, and shall be installed and striped in accordance with the approved
site plan and Ordinance 11-13-4-D, -F.

structures, which it appears shall be demolished as part of this project. The
Applicant shall verify whether or not the existing structures will be demolished
when the gymnasium is built.

ORDER GRANTING
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. This matter coming before the City Council on the July 4, 2002, under the
provisions of Meridian City Code § 11-17-4 for final action on conditional use permit
application and the Council having received and approving the Recommendation of the Planning
and Zoning Commission the Council takes the following action:
2. That the above named applicant is granted a conditional use permit to renovate
existing office and convention center into a private Jr./Sr. High School in an L-O zone located at
200 East Carlton Avenue, Meridian, Idaho, subject to the following conditions of use and
development:
Adopt the Recommendations of the Planning and Zoning and Engineering staff as follows:
1. Trash Enclosure: The applicant has submitted a revised Site Plan showing the trash
enclosures and the building elevations. A trash enclosure shall be added to the
ORDER CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - 1
(CUP-02-015)
o
°
gymnasium lot and screened in accordance with Ordinance 11-12-1-C. Applicant shall
come to an agreement with SSC regarding size and dimension specifics on trash
enclosure to be placed in the area of the planned gymnasium.
Signs: Applicant's intent is to utilize the existing monument sign presently located on
the southwest comer of the property. If the Applicant provides information on additional
signage he shall address the number, location, and maximum size of any proposed
signs--wall-mounted or freestanding. All such signs shall require a separate sign permit
and shall be subject to design review by P&Z staff. Given the historic nature of the
structure and its relationship to Old Town, context-sensitive signage is important to blend
with the character of the building.
Parking: The proposed use requires 215 parking spaces, but only 159 spaces are
provided on the subject property, with an additional 33 possibly available via a cross-
parking agreement, leaving a deficit of 23 parking stalls. The total parking space issue
shall be reviewed and addressed at the time Cole Valley Christian shall be in need of the
parking spaces. Applicant shall obtain a variance prior to applying for a Certificate of
Zoning Compliance for the gym. Applicant's failure to obtain a variance shall result in
down-sizing or elimination &the gym. The Applicant shall address the anticipated
parking demand for the office uses that will remain, as well as the proposed school, when
such variance is needed. Upon satisfactory resolution of the parking demand versus
supply issue, a variance to the parking requirements would be supported. Also, the
Applicant shall supply written verification that the Apostolic Bible Church is amenable to
the cross-parking agreement and shall work to finalize such cross-parking agreement.
Planters/Parking Lot: The proposed site plan does not include planters within the interior
of the parking lot. The parking lot is existing and is being modified less than 50%. The
requirements of Ordinance 12-13-11-4-B apply to this project, which means that the
perimeter landscaping and street buffers are required, but the internal islands are not
required until the parking lot is replaced or altered more than 50%. The perimeter
landscape strips shown on the proposed landscape plan are sufficient to meet this
requirement.
Existing Trees: The existing large maple trees along E. 2 lA Street, adjacent to the
proposed gym, shall be protected during construction as noted on the proposed plan.
Applicant shall verify that the proposed new trees are sufficient to mitigate for the one
existing tree proposed for removal. The existing trees surrounding the Meridian Office &
Convention Center shall also be protected and retained.
Additional Landscaping: Many of the existing landscape strips contain trees, but the
ground surrounding them is left heavily populated by weeds. Additional landscaping
shall be added to all such areas so that all landscape areas are fully vegetated with grass,
shrubs, and/or vegetative groundcover. A pressurized irrigation system shall be required

to all landscape areas. This shall require some modifications to the existing pressurized
irrigation system, as the current system provides bubblers to the trees only, but does not
currently water the ground.
Existing Structures: The proposed gynmasium site contains two existing structures,
which it appears shall be demolished as part of this project. The Applicant shall verify
whether or not the existing structures will be demolished when the gymnasium is built.
Handicapped parking: The Applicant's architect (CTA Architects) shall verify whether
or not the proposed site plan meets the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities
Act, and if not, provide a revised site plan showing how the parking shall be modified.
Building Height: The proposed gymnasium shall not exceed thirty-five (35) feet high per
the Maximum Building Height shown in Ordinance 11-9-1. Building elevations were
submitted with the application, but the height is difficult to read, though it appears that it
may be 33'-6". The Applicant shall verify the actual height. Applicant shall present a
revised elevation plan that shows more variation to the gym design on the Carlton Street
side and a revised site plan showing the planned trash enclosure.
Setbacks: The proposed structure is subject to all required setbacks of Ordinance 11-9-1
for the L-O zone. The submitted site plan appears to meet all of the required setbacks.
Water/sewer: This facility is currently served by the City of Meridian's sanitary sewer
and water systems. Existing sanitary sewer and water assessments shall be compared
with the anticipated impact, to determine whether additional assessments are warranted.
If additional assessments are warranted, Applicant shall pay for them with the issuance of
his building permit for tenant improv, ements.
As part of a conditional use permit, the City of Meridian may impose additional
restrictions/conditions.
Existing trees shall be protected and retained in accordance with Meridian City Code 12-
13-13.
Off-street parking shall be provided in accordance with the City of Meridian Zoning and
Development Ordinance and/or as detailed in site-specific requirements. All parking and
areas of circulation shall be improved with a hard surface in accordance with Meridian
City Code 11 o 13-4-D, and shall be installed and striped in accordance with the approved
site plan and Ordinance 11-13-4-D, -F.
All construction and site improvements shall conform to the requirements of the
Americans with Disabilities Act.
