I. DECISION
The applicant's request for Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design Review are approved
with the conditions listed below. The director determined that the proposed structural and/or site
designs conform to the standards and meet or exceed the intent of the "City of Meridian
Architectural Standards Manual".
The applicant's request for Alternative Compliance to UDC 11-3B-8C. lb, which requires
perimeter buffers to be landscaped with one (1) tree per 35 linear feet; and to UDC 11-313-8C.2d,
which requires interior planters to be landscaped with at least one (1) tree, to not be required to
plant trees in the area where the irrigation easement exists for the Milk Lateral is approved per the
Findings below.
Alternative Compliance Findings (UDC 11-513-5E):
1. Strict adherence or application of the requirements are not feasible; or
The Director finds strict adherence to the standards requiring trees in perimeter buffers and
planter islands in parking lots listed in UDC 11-3B-8C is not feasible due to the location of
the easement for the Milk Lateral as trees aren't allowed by the Irrigation District within the
easement area.
2. The alternative compliance provides an equal or superior means for meeting the
requirements; and
The Director finds the Applicant's proposal to still provide the required number of trees
elsewhere in the perimeter buffer outside of the easement area and bushes instead of trees in
one of the planter islands within the easement area provides an equal means of meeting the
requirements.
