RECEIVED JAN 2 l 2006 GITY OF MERIDIAN CITY CLERK n¡:cl~!= MI-05-017 Miscellaneous request to modify the recorded Development Agreement for Blue Marlin by subjecting an additional 1.50 acres of property to the provisions of the Development Agreement, by Jonathan See!. 1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT'S REQUEST The applicant, Jonathan Seel, has applied for Annexation and Zoning (AZ) to C-G (General Commercial) for 1.50 acres of property currently zoned RUT in Ada County. The site is located on the north side of Ustick Road, approximately 1/4 mile west of Eagle Road. This site is currently rural residential with one single-family residential building and accessory buildings. The applicant is not proposing any land use, development or subdivision at this time. Instead, the applicant is proposing to amend the existing development agreement for the adjoining Blue Marlin parcel to include this lot (see MI-05-017). A condition of recorded Development Agreement for Blue Marlin includes a requirement that all future uses require a Conditional Use Permit or that a Planned Development (PD) application be submitted for the entire project (see Miscellaneous Application (MI-05-017) for analysis related to amending the recorded development agreement for Blue Marlin below). The subject property is within the Urban Service Planning Area. 2. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION The subject applications (AZ and MI) were submitted to the Planning Department for concurrent review. By City Ordinance, the Planning & Zoning Commission does not take action on Miscellaneous Applications, as the Council is the final decision making body (with a recommendation from staff). However, because the City Council is the final decision making body on the Annexation and Miscellaneous applications, and because the two applications are inter-related, the subject applications are being combined into one staff report. The Commission should make recommendations to the Council on the AZ application only. Any comments related to the Annexation application (AZ-05-065) will be include in the Commission's recommendation to the Council. Staff is recommending approval of the Nesmith Annexation (AZ-05-065) and Miscellaneous Application (MI-05-017), with an amendment to the recorded Development Agreement for Blue Marlin. 3. PROPOSED MOTION (to be considered after the public hearing) Recommend Denial I move to recommend denial to the City Council of File Number AZ-05-065 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of February 2, 2006 for the following reasons: (You should state specific reasons for denial.)

APPLICATION AND PROPERTY FACTS a. Site Address/Location: b. Owner: 2820 E. Ustick/ 4NIE32 Winston H. Moore 1940 Bonito Way, Ste. 160 Meridian, ill 83642 c. Applicant/Representative: Jonathan Seel, W.H. Moore Company d. Present Zoning: RUT (Ada County) e. Present Comprehensive Plan Designation: Mixed Use - Regional f. Description of Applicant's Request: Request for Annexation and Zoning (AZ) to C.G (General Commercial) for 1.50 acres of property currently zoned RUT in Ada County. Miscellaneous Request (MI) to amend the recorded Development Agreement (DA) for Blue Marlin by including the subject 1.50 acres. g. Applicant's Statement/Justification: As background information, Winston H. Moore owns 58 acres at the northwest comer of Us tick and Eagle. In early 2004, Mr. Moore submitted an application to annex and rezone the entire 58 acres to C-G zoning. This parcel is referred to as Blue Marlin. At that time we did not have any specific plans for the project, but felt it would be a commercial development based on strong interest from the retail sector. However, interested retailers would not enter into serious discussions until the land was annexed and zoned for their use. Subsequent to the approved annexation and rezone, Mr. Moore purchased the adjoining 1.46 acre parcel with no plans for development. He simply purchased the lot to square-off the Blue Marlin parcel and avoid conflicts with the owner of the residential lot (please see Applicant's Submittal Letter.) 5. PROCESS FACTS a. The subject application will in fact constitute an annexation as determined by City Ordinance. By reason of the provisions of the Meridian City Code Title 11 Chapter 5, a public hearing is required before the City Council on this matter. b. Miscellaneous applications are not currently addressed in Title II of the Meridian City Code. It has been determined by the City's Legal Department that a miscellaneous application to amend a recorded development agreement will in fact require a public hearing before the City Council. c.

COMMENTS MEETING On December 21,2005, a joint agency and departments meeting was held with service providers in this area. The agencies and departments present include: Meridian Fire Department, Meridian Parks Department, Meridian Public Works Department, and the Sanitary Services Company. The Meridian Fire Department was the only department or agency to provide comments. These comments are "standard" and have not been included as conditions of annexation. Once a development planes) is submitted staff will provide the applicant with specific comments and conditions from all commenting agencies and departments. 8. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS This property is designated "Mixed Use Regional" on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, this designation is defined 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 Mixed Use - Regional designation has no upper limit on the square footage of non~residential uses and is intended to allow a broad range of uses. Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the subject property (staff analysis in italics below policy): . Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. (Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action I) 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 the following manner: . Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at the developer's expense. 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. . . . Nesmith Annexation - AZ-05~065 / MI-05-0 17 PAGE 4 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF FEBRUARY 2, 2006 . 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. . Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels. (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action I) The applicant is proposing a commercial zone adjacent to proposed or established commercial districts. However, residences are being proposed as part of the Champion Park Addition Subdivision to the northwest. Staff finds that if the subject annexation application and the Champion Park Addition applications are both approved, approximately 100 feet of the subject property will abut residential lots. However, the impacts to the proposed residential properties to the northwest can be limited through the construction of land use bujJers,fencing, and design. NOTE: On January 26,2006, the applicant provided stajJwith a letter stating that they believe they should only be required to provide a 5j'00t wide landscape strip along the west boundary of the Blue Marlin/CentrePoint development. Please see the Analysis section below. . "Permit new. . .commercial developments only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, Goal I, Objective A, Action 6) Municipal water, solid waste and other se",ices exist to this area of Meridian. . "Locate new community commercial areas on arterials. . .near residential areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining residential areas." (Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective D, Action 3) Ustick Road is a designated arterial roadway. A 35-foot wide street buffer will be required along Ustick Road when this property develops. Staff finds that commercial uses on this property should complement the nearby residential land uses. . "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets." (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 2) There are existing access points to/from Ustick Road to/from this property. StafJ recommends that access to this site be provided by the future internal roadway/driveway system and not Ustick Road when this property develops. . Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect to local roads and collectors in adjacent developments. (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 13) No stub streets are currently provided to the subject site. Currently there are no opportunities to connect to roads in adjacent developments. Staff believes that when the roadway/driveway Nesmith Annexation - AZ-05-065 I MI-05-0 17 PAGE 5 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DA IE OF FEBRUARY 2, 2006 system in Blue Marlin is constructed, this parcel will be provided access to Ustick and Eagle Roads. Staff also finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be applicable to this application: . "The capacity of arterial. . .roadways can be greatly diminished by excessive driveway connections 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, page 79) . Staff finds that the proposed C-G zoning designation is generally harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on any verbal or written testimony that may be provided at the public hearing when determining if the applicant's zoning and development request is appropriate for this property. 9. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE a. Allowed Uses in the Commercial Districts: UDC Table 11-2B-2 lists the permitted, accessory, and conditional uses in the C-G zoning district. However, the existing DA for Blue Marlin, which the applicant is proposing to subject the 1.50 acres to, requires all uses to obtain conditional use approval prior to construction and operation. b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the Commercial Districts is to provide for the retail and service needs ofthe 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. 10. ANALYSIS a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: I. AZ Application: Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan, and the development surrounding the subject site, staff believes that the requested C~G zone is appropriate for this property. Please see Exhibit C for detailed analysis of the required facts and findings. The annexation legal description submitted with the application (stamped on December 9, 2005 by Peter W. Lounsbury, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. 2. MI Application: There are no required findings for a miscellaneous application/development agreement modification. Below, staff has provided the most pertinent facts and analysis related to the proposed development agreement modification. UDC 11-5B-3.D.2 and Idaho Code § 65-6711A provides the City the authority to require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement (DA) with the City that may require some written commitment for all future uses. Staff believes that a DA is necessary to ensure that this property is developed in a fashion that is consistent with the comprehensive plan designation and does not negatively impact nearby properties. Nesmith Annexation - AZ-OS-065 I MI-05-0I 7 PAGE 6 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF FEBRUARY 2, 2006 W.H. Moore, the current owner, has previously entered into a DA with the City and is requesting that the recorded DA for Blue Marlin be amended to include the subject 1.5 acres. The development agreement for this property was record on April 12, 2005 as Instrument No. 105048793. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council direct the City's Legal Department to draft modifications to the recorded development agreement for Blue Marlin as follows: . Page 1, Item 1.4 ~ "Whe reas, "Own er" has submitted an application§ for annexation and zoning (AZ-03-025 and AZ-05-065) of the "Property's" described in Exhibit A, and has requested a designation of (C-G) General Retail and Service Commercial District, (Municipal Code of the City of Meridian; and" . Page 2, Item 1.7 - "Wh ereas, City Council the 23rd day of March, 2004, and the XX day of February/March. 2006. has approved certain Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and Decision and Order, set forth in as if set froth in full, hereinafter referred to as (the "Findings"); and" . Page 3, Item 3.3 - "'P roperty": means and refers to that certain parcels(s) of "Property" located in the County of Ada, City of Meridian as described in Exhibit A. amended to include 1.50 acres alone Ustick Road as well as the 58 acres orieinallv subjected to this al!reement. describing the parcels to be annexed and zoned C-G (General Retail and Service Commercial District) attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein as set forth at length. " . Page 3, Item 4.1 - " '0 wner/Developer" shall not develop all or any part of the "Pr operty" unless and until it has applied for and received either (a) a site-specific conditional use permit for the parcel to be developed, or (b) approval for a planned development of the entire "Property." The following are found to be pertinent provisions of the City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan and are applicable to tffis AZ-02- 025 and AZ-05-065 application§:....." . The applicant is requesting to further amend the DA by asking that the City only require 5 feet of landscaping adjacent to the proposed residential uses to the west, in Champion Park and Champion Park Addition. The ODC currently requires a 25-foot wide landscape buffer, between commercially zoned property and residential uses (UDC Table 11-2B-3). The applicant believes that they should not incur the financial burden of allocating additional land to landscaping because of the proposed Champion Park Addition going from mini-storage to residential (see Applicant's Letter dated January 26, 2006.) Although Champion Park is proposing to amend their use of the property to the west, from mini-storage to residential, staff believes that some type of substantial landscape buffer (not just a 6 foot vinyl fence as proposed by the developer of Champion Park Addition) does need to be constructed along the west property line. Staff also believes that the applicant has some good reasons why they should not be required to construct a full 25-foot wide landscape buffer. Staff believes that at least a 10- foot wide landscape buffer, constructed in accordance with Nesmith Annexation - AZ-05-065 / MI-05-017 PAGE 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF FEBRUARY 2, 2006 UDC 11-3B-9C, should be constructed along the entire western boundary of the subject site, where the site abuts residential uses, for the following reasons: 1) the area to the west (Champion Park and Champion Park Addition) is shown on the Comprehensive Future Land Use Map as "M edium Density Residential". This medium density designation existed prior to Blue Marlin or the subject 1.5 acre parcel requesting annexation; 2) The land to the west (Champion Park) was zoned for residential uses prior to Blue Marlin being annexed into the City; 3) As the future homeowners are not living in the homes proposed with Champion Park Addition, or the adjacent phase of Champion Park, staff believes that the City needs to protect their interest. If the City does not look out for the interest of the future homeowners no one will. Even though the developers of Champion Park are proposing to amend their development, the City should not waiver in the standard practice of buffering residential uses from commercial uses. The applicant even agrees that the (future) home owners need to be protected in these instances, they just believe that they should not be burdened with doing so (see Applicant's letter); and, 4) There are previously approved residences within Champion Park, to the north of the proposed Champion Park Addition, that are not a part of the Champion Park Addition application. These home lots were approved prior to Blue Marlin/CentrePointe and should also be provided with a landscape buffer. For the reasons listed above. staff recommends that Page 4. Item 5B be amended to include the following restrictions/requirements for the subject 1.50 acre Nesmith parcel and the 58 acres commonly known as Blue Marlin and marketed as CentrePointe: 2. Construct at least a 10-foot wide landscape buffer. in accordance with UDC 11-3B-9C. alone the entire western boundary of the subject site. where the site abuts existine or proposed residential uses. 3. Landscape buffers alone Ustick Road and Ealde Road shall be constructed alone the perimeter of the development. in accordance with the Unified Development Code. Prior to the annexation ordinance approval, a modification to the recorded Development Agreement (Instrument No. 105048793) shall be entered into between the City of Meridian, property owner (at the time of annexation ordinance adoption), and the developer. The applicant shall contact the City Attorney. Bill Nary. at 888. 4433 to initiate this Drocess. b. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the sub;ect applications AZ-05- 065 and MCU-05.017. with the conditions listed in the recorded Development Agreement for Blue Marlin. including the amendments listed in the MI Application Analvsis of Section 10 of the Staff ReDort for the hearing date of Februarv 2.2006. 11.

Annexation Findings: Exhibit B - Page 1 Upon recommendation from the Commission, the Council shall make a full investigation and shall, at the public hearing, review the application. In order to grant an annexation and/or rezone, the Council shall make the following findings: 1. The map amendment complies with the applicable provisions of the comprehensive plan; The applicant is proposing to zone all of the subject property to C-G. Staff finds that the proposed zoning map amendment complies with the applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan. Please see Comprehensive Plan Policies and Goals, Section 8, of the Staff Report for more information. The map amendment complies with the regulations outlined for the proposed district, specifically the purpose statement; No development is proposed concurrent with the zoning map amendment. Staff finds that there are several uses that are allowed and conditionally allowed within the requested zoning district of C-G. Staff further finds that the recorded DA for Blue Marlin requires all future uses on this site to either obtain conditional use permit approval or obtain approval for a planned development. If the applicant complies with the conditions outlined in the modified development agreement, staff finds that the proposed commercial district will be in compliance with the specific district regulations. Staff finds that future development of this property should comply with the established regulations and purpose statement of the C-G zone. 2. 3. The map amendment shall not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare; Staff finds that the proposed zoning amendment will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on any oral or written testimony that may be provided when determining this finding. The map amendment shall not result in an adverse impact upon the delivery of services by any political subdivision providing public services within the City including, but not limited to, school districts; and, Staff finds that the proposed zoning amendment will not result in any adverse impact upon the delivery of services by any political subdivision providing services to this site. 4. 5. The annexation is in the best of interest of the City (UDC 11-5B-3.E). The C-G zoning amendment will provide commercial area that is similar in nature to existing and proposed commercial development in the vicinity. Staff finds that all essential services are available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not require unreasonable expenditure of public funds. In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that Annexation and Zonin!l of this property to C-G would be in the best interest of the City. if the applicant enters into a modified Development Agreement (DA) with the City. as mentioned in Section 10 of the Staff Report. 1111 W.H.
