Borup: I think that's -- yeah. That's what I understood. This will be -- Guenther: A final decision. Borup: Right. Rohm: Okay. Borup: I thought that's what my motion said. Rohm: And you probably did and I misstated when I restated it. It's been moved and seconded that we approve this CUP 05-057. All those in favor say aye. Opposed same sign. Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, do we need to add to that a request for staff to prepare Facts -- Facts and Findings or whatever you call it? Guenther: We will prepare the Findings of Fact and write into the staff report the comments that were heard at this meeting for two weeks from today and they will be on the Consent Agenda with the other applications. Item 15: Public Hearing: AZ 05-065 Request for Annexation and Zoning of 1.50 acres from RUT to C-G zone for Nesmith Annexation by Jonathan Seel - 2820 East Ustick Road: Rohm: Good. Thank you very much. Okay. Two more. I'd like to at this time open the Public Hearing on AZ 05-065 pertaining to the Nesmith Annexation and begin with the staff report. Hood: Thank you, Mr. Chair, Members of the Commission. The subject application is for annexation and zoning of 1.5 acres located on the north side of Ustick Road. It is directly east of Center Point is what the mark -- what's being marketed as you saw as Blue Marlin annexation. It's the 58 plus acres Winston H. Moore's company owns. The Kohl's site is just off the site on Ustick Road in this approximate location. The 1.5 acres is in the white. Champion Park Addition, which you reviewed and recommended approval to the City Council is directly to the west. The site is currently a rural residential. There is an existing single family home and some out buildings on the site. The applicant is not proposing to develop the property at this time. There is not a plat or a Conditional Use Permit. What the applicant is proposing to do is amend the existing DA for the Blue Marlin parcel to include this 1.5 acres. With that development -' Meridian Planning & Zoning February 2, 2006 Page 77 of 113 Borup: Yes. Rohm: State something that it needs to only operate during daylight hours or something to that effect. Zaremba: That, actually, is off site, so I'm not sure we can include it with this one. I appreciate the offer. I might add the requirement for the signs at the parking at the rear. Rohm: There you go. Borup: Okay. Mr. Chairman, I move to approve file number CUP 05-057 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of February 2nd, 2006, and the landscape plan dated December 15th, 2005, with the following modifications to the conditions of approval: One would be -- I don't know if this would be 1.5 or somewhere else that slats be added to the chain link fence on this property and make note that the applicant has volunteered to also add screening slats to the fence on the existing parcel that they own to the south and that they have also volunteered to adjust the hours of the generator testing -- I would say between 9:00 and 5:00 would probably be appropriate and that should handle their requirements. And also that in the back of the property -- the back of the building on this property there be a sign posted to say no parking between the hours of -- I mean parking only between these hours of 8:00 and 6:00? Zaremba: I suggested 10:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. that -- Borup: No parking between 10:00 p.m. -- Zaremba: We discussed those hours, but -- Borup: No parking between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. But I also make note the plan does not show any parking stalls on this east side of the building either. They would be parking in non-designated parking spots if they did. Oh, I'm sorry. I was looking at the wrong building. I was looking at the wrong building. Yes. So, motion as stated. Park-- I would propose no parking between 9:00 at night and 7:30 in the morning. Rohm: Okay. Good. End of motion? Borup: End of motion. Zaremba: Second. Rohm: It's been moved and seconded that we forward onto the Council recommending approval -- Guenther: Sorry. We don't forward on, but we would approve this in two weeks. l Meridian Planning & Zoning February 2, 2006 Page 76 of 113 Zaremba: Question on the fence subject again. Would it be appropriate for us to say that it is a condition of approval to put slats in any new fencing for the new building -- or maybe the fence is already there? Borup: Yes. Zaremba: Okay. So, it is a condition of approval to put slats in the existing fence on this property and that the applicant has volunteered to continue that onto the original property. Rohm: I think that -- Zaremba: Is that a good way to put it? Rohm: That would work for me. Staff? We have a nod of approval. Guenther: Staff will write these up as a portion of the staff report that you all present when we sign Findings in two weeks, if that's your wish. . Rohm: Yeah. I think that would work. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman? Rohm: Commissioner Zaremba. Zaremba: I move that we re-close the Public Hearing on CUP 05-057. Moe: Second. Rohm: It's been moved and seconded that we re-close CUP 05-057. All those in favor say aye. Opposed same sign? Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I would comment for the record that during the time after we closed it and we opened it again nobody left the room. Rohm: Thank you. Good comment. Zaremba: We are all looking at Commissioner Borup with great anticipation. Borup: All right. Was there any other conditions besides the slats? I didn't have any notes on anything else. Rohm: Only if you wanted to address the hours of operation of the emergency generator. .~ Meridian Planning & Zoning February 2, 2006 Page 75 of 113 MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Guenther: Mr. Chairman? Zaremba: Mr. Chairman? Guenther: Before you make your motion, are you going to bring into the conditions pretty much everything that you have said tonight with the slats in the fencing, the acknowledgment that -- Anna wants to take a shot at this. Canning: Chairman Rohm, Members of the Commission, if you are considering the applicant's offer to put in slats for the chain link fencing as an off-site requirement, staff would just ask that you make that clear, that the applicant volunteered to do that and that you haven't imposed that upon him. Rohm: Okay. I think that could be incorporated. Borup: That was my intention. I realize it's off site and can't be mandated. Rohm: Well, then, Commissioner Borup, would you like to make a motion? Guenther: Chairman Rohm? Just an advisement from our fire personnel that are here. I'm sorry, this is probably a little out of order, but he just wants to say something to you quickly. Rohm: Oh, by all means. Baird: Mr. Chairman, I'd advise you to reopen the Public Hearing if you're going to take some comments. Rohm: Okay. Then, let's do that, because I don't want to just go with this unsaid. So, at this time I'd like to reopen CUP 05-057 for additional staff comment. Silva: Joe Silva, Meridian Fire Department. The fire marshal. Just a quick comment, Chairman Rohm, Members of the Commission. We would just like to put the design team on notice that we would like to request that prior to submitting civil and building plans for this particular project, that they meet with the fire department plan reviewer and Lynn Grady to mitigate any -- some moderate fire flows available in the area. We had some concerns when the project next door, Intermountain Woods, was proposed and approved, we just want to make the design team aware that the flows are very close and the design will be very critical on this particular project. Rohm: Good. Thank you. ( Meridian Planning & Zoning February 2, 2006 Page 74 of 113 Zaremba: Okay. Would it be possible in the design to move the air conditioning equipment for this building farther away from the back property line or design it so that the equipment itself is near the front of your building? Kaufman: This particular building -- Zaremba: I assume it's on the roof. Kaufman: Well, this particular building will only be heated. We will not have any air conditioning. We were just -- do that to keep the temperature from getting too cold for the wood product. So, any heating unit will be inside, so there will not be any mechanical units on the outside of the building, other than the office building up front and that will be -- obviously, that will be kept up front and not a concern for noise. Zaremba: Good. Thank you. And the third question -- with the parking in the back, would you be willing to put up some signs that state some specific hours for parking back there? For instance, no parking 10:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m., or something like that? Kaufman: Sure. Zaremba: It would have to be self-policing, because I'm not sure anybody would come, but at least it would remind -- Kaufman: Yeah. We would definitely -- we could definitely do that, yes. Zaremba: Okay. Kaufman: It would help remind everybody not to do that. Zaremba: That was it for me. Rohm: Thank you. Any other questions of the applicant? Kaufman: Thank you. Rohm: Thank you. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move we close the Public Hearing on CUP 05-057. Rohm: We heard your testimony. Thank you. It's been moved that we close the Public Hearing on CUP 05-057. Moe: Second. Rohm: And seconded. All those in favor say aye. Opposed same sign. Motion carries.
