Moore. Plarming & Zoning Commission 1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT'S REQUEST The applicant, Winston H. Moore, is requesting approval of a Preliminary Plat to subdivide 31.37 acres located on the northwest comer of Us tick Road and Eagle Road. The subject preliminary plat contains 23 commercial lots. A majority of this site was annexed into the City in 2004 as part of the Blue Marlin annexation. A smaller piece of the subject property was recently annexed into the City as Nesmith, AZ- 05-065. The proposed subdivision does not include the 8.33 acres previously approved for a KoW's Department Store, or the northern 1/3 of the Blue Marlin property, which totaled 59 acres. The Development Agreement (DA) in effect for this site requires any future uses be approved through a site specific Conditional Use Permit (CUP) application, or a Planned Development (PD) submittal. NOTE: The subject application does not include a CUP or PD, but does include a proposal by the applicant to construct the parking areas and private drive lanes that are depicted on the submitted site plan. The submitted landscape plan depicts a 35-foot wide landscape buffer along Eagle Road, located entirely outside of the right-of-way for Eagle Road. However, the Commission should note that the applicant is preparing to submit a variance application to allow some of the right-of-way along Eagle Road to count towards the required landscape street buffer of 35-feet. Staff does not believe that the approval or denial of the variance request by the Council will have a major impact on the layout ofthe proposed subdivision. The subj ect report does not assume that a variance by the Council will be granted. 2.

Existing Constraints and Opportunities: I. Public Works Centrepointe Subdivision PP-06-020 page 2 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 Location of sewer: Extension of mains in U stick Road Location of water: Extension of mains in Ustick Road Issues or concerns: None. 2. Vegetation: Agricultural, with some existing trees that should be protected or mitigated for. 3. Flood plain: N/A 4. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: There are a couple of irrigation/drainage ditches that bisect the property. 5. Hazards: None identified. 6. Size of Property: 31.37 acres f. Subdivision Plat Information: The submitted plat proposes 23 commercial lots in a C-G zone. A new north-south public street, Sadie Creek Avenue, is proposed near the western boundary of the subdivision. The 8.33 acre Kohl's site is not part of the subject plat. g. Landscaping: 1. Width of street buffer(s): Per the Future Land Use Map, both Ustick Road and Eagle Road are designated as "Entryway Corridors" adjacent to this site. As such, the UDC (Table 11-2B-3) requires a 35-foot wide street buffer adjacent to both roadways. The landscape plan (Sheets L1.0 and L1.l) proposes a 35-foot wide buffer along both Ustick and Eagle Roads, except along Ustick Road west of Sadie Creek Avenue. Landscape buffers along streets should be either placed in a separate common lot or a landscape easement. 2. Percentage of site as open space: The UDC does not require open space or site amenities for commercial subdivisions. 3. Other landscaping standards: Landscaping within the proposed parking lot areas should be constructed in compliance with UDC ll-3B-8. With the approval of the Nesmith Annexation, the applicant wa!'; granted alternative compliance from the standard requirement to construct a 25-foot wide landscape buffer adjacent to Champion Park (residential) to the west. A 10-foot wide buffer landscape buffer should be constructed adjacent to the future single-family uses to the west. See Section 9 below for more information. h. Proposed and Required Non~Residential Parking: One off-street parking space is required for every 500 square feet of gross floor area. Also, one Type A and one Type B parking space required for the loading areas (per UDC 11-3C-8). No buildings are proposed with the subject application. However, the applicant is proposing to construct the main parking lot and drive aisles with the subj ect plat. Staff will monitor the square footage of each building as it is submitted for CUP approval to ensure that adequate parking is provided. 1. Proposed Street System: Access points to this site have previously been reviewed and approved by ACHD, ITD and the City. Three access points to Ustick Road and two access points to Eagle Road are proposed. A public road will be constructed from the most westerly entrance off of Us tick Road. This road, Sadie Creek Avenue, will be constructed to the north boundary of the subdivision, eventually connecting to Wainwright Drive further to the north. The remaining access points to Ustick Road and Eagle Road are proposed as driveways. Staff is recommending that a cross access/ingress-egress easement be provided so that each lot Centrepointe Subdivision PP-06-020 page 3 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 within the subject subdivision, as well as the KoW's site, has access to the driveways and thus the public street system. As of the print deadline for this report, staff has not received comments from ACHD. For details on ITD's most recent comments, please see the letter dated March 24,2006 submitted for the application. 7. AGENCY COMMENTS MEETING On April 14, 2006, 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 B. 8. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The subject site is designated 'Mixed Use-Regional' (MU-R) on the Future Land Use Map. In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, this designation is defined in part as an area that is situated in higWy 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 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 proposed development (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 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 subdivided in the following manner: · The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural Fire Department. · The lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD). · The roadways adjacent to the su~ject lands are currently owned and maintained by the Ada County Highway District (ACHD) and the Idaho Department of Transportation (ITD). 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. Stafffinds that the site is designatedfor MU-R on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Staff believes that over time, a variety of commercial and retail opportunities will be provided on this site. Centrepointe Subdivision PP-06-020 page 4 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4,2006 · Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D: Encourage appropriate land uses along transportation corridors. Staff believes that the proposed subdivision is appropriate along the adjoining transportation corridors (Ustick Road and Eagle Road). · Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 2: R.estrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets. The ACHD and ITD evaluate access points. The proposed access points to the arterial streets generally comply with ACHD 's standards. 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 Eagle Road accesses have been approved by the City Council through the variance process. · 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 35-foot wide street buffers along the adjacent arterial streets (Ustick Road and Eagle Road). By Ordinance, a minimum 35-foot wide landscape buffer along entryway corridors is required. 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) · "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, 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) 9. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE a. Allowed Uses in the Commercial Districts: UDC Table 11-2B-2lists several uses as permitted and conditional uses in the C-G zoning district. However, all uses on this site require CUP approval. b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the 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 of the CwG district is to provide for commercial uses which are customarily operated entirely or almost entirely within a building; to provide for a review Centrepointe Subdivision PP-06-020 page 5 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 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 oftravel~related services as well as retail sales for the transient and permanent 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-5): The following standards shall apply to off-street vehicle parking for non-residential uses: In all Commercial Districts the requirement shall be one (1) space for every five hundred (500) square feet of gross floor area. d. Structures Subject to Design Standards (UDC 11-3A-19B5): All structures on property adjacent to an entryway corridor (Ustick/Eagle Roads) are subject to the design standards listed in this section of the UDC. e. Outdoor storage/refuse areas (UDC 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. f. Development along State and Federal Highways (UDC 11-3H): The applicant shall construct a street, generally paralleling the state highway, be designed to accommodate future connectivity and access to all properties fronting the state highway that lie between the applicant's property and the nearest section line road and/or half mile collector road. The intent of this section is to provide for future connectivity and access to all properties fronting the state highway that lie between the applicant's property and the nearest section line road and/or half-mile collector road. The applicant is proposing driveways, rather than a street, that will collect and distribute traffic as envisioned with the subject section ofthe UDC. 10. ANALYSIS Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation The PP application substantially complies with the Unified Development Code (UDC). However, there are some aspects of the proposed parking lot area that do not comply with the design requirements of the UDC. Below, staff has detailed some of the more significant changes that should be required with the approval of the preliminary plat and associated parking lot improvements. Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan and the general compliance of the proposed development with the Unified Development Code, staff believes that this is a good location for the proposed development. Please see Exhibit C for detailed analysis of the required facts and [mdings for a preliminary plat. Future Uses: Consistent with the Development Agreement in effect for this site, all future development on the subject lots shall be required to obtain Conditional Use Permit approval prior to construction. Further, each building proposed on a lot adjacent to Eagle Road should also be subject to Design Review approval. LandscapinQ:: Staff is generally supportive of the proposed landscape plan prepared by The Land Group, Inc., labeled Sheet Ll.O, dated 4-5-06, with the following revisions: Centrepointc Subdivision PP-06-020 page 6 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 UDC 1l.2B requires a 35-foot wide street buffer along entryway corridors. Eagle Road and Us tick Road are both entryway corridors. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is proposing to construct a 35-foot wide street buffer along most of Ustick Road and all of Eagle Road (Lot 8, Block 1, does not have the required buffer along Ustick Road.) Chapter 2 of the UDC also requires a 10-foot wide landscape buffer along both sides of the proposed Sadie Creek Avenue, a commercial street. The applicant should be required to depict the required street buffers on the face of the [mal plat in an easement or place the required buffers in common lots (UDC 11-3B). All landscaping adjacent to public streets should conform to the requirements of UDC 11-3B-7. UDC 11-3B-8C2 prohibits linear groupings of parking spaces in excess of 12. There are several groupings of parking spaces that exceed 12 in a row. Therefore, in accordance with UDC 11-3B- 8C2, landscape planters, including trees and groundcover, shall be placed within the proposed parking areas. UDC Table 11-2B-3 requires a 25-foot wide land use buffer between C-G zoned property and residentially zoned property. However, the applicant has previously applied for and received approval for a lO-foot wide landscape buffer adjacent to the residential uses in Champion Park Subdivision to the west. A 10-foot wide landscape buffer easement should be placed on the face ofthe final plat, where this site abuts residentially zoned property. 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. Pressure Irril!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. FencinlZ: The applicant is not showing any fencing on any of the submitted plans. A detailed fencing plan should bc submitted upon application of the final plat (UDC 11 ~3A- 7). If pt:nuammt fencing is not provided, temporary construction fencing to contain debris must be installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building permit. All fencing should be installed in accordance with City Code. See Exhibit B below. Existinl! Structures: Because single-family dwellings are prohibited in the C-G zone, the existing single-family structures and associated outbuildings on this site should be removed, prior to the City Engineer's signature of the final plat. Sadie Creek Avenue: Staff is supportive of the general location and design of Sadie Creek Avenue. However, once constructed, it will be a very long dead-end street. Until Sadie Creek is extended further to the north, a temporary turnaround and easement should be provided. Internal Cross-access: There are some commercial lots that do not have frontage on a public street. Also, there are shared parking areas and driveways to Ustick Road on the KoW's out- parcel. Because several of the proposed lots do not have frontage on a public street, and access to the adjacent roadways are limited, the applicant should provide a cross parking/cross access agreement for all of the lots within the subdivision, and the KoW's site, to use the driveways and parking aisles. Prior to signature of the final plat by the City Engineer, a copy of a recorded cross- access/ingress-egress and parking maintenance agreement should be provided to the City. Centrepointe Subdivision PP-06-020 page 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 Parkin!:! Lot: As mentioned in the application summary above, the applicant is requesting approval to construct the parking areas in Block 2. UDC 11-3C-6B requires off-street loading spaces for commercial uses at a rate of 1 per every 500 square feet of building. UDC Table 11- 3C-l requires all90-degree parking stalls to be at least 9-feet wide by 19-feet long adjacent to 25- foot wide drive aisles. Further, UDC 11-3B.8C2 prohibits linear groupings of parking spaces in excess of 12. There are several groupings of parking spaces that exceed 12 in a row. In accordance with UDC 11-3B-8C2, landscape planters, including trees and groundcover, shall be placed within the proposed parking areas. All parking should comply with UDC 11.3C-5 and UDC 11-3B-8. To ensure that the proposed parking lot is constructed in accordance with the UDC, staff recommends that the applicant be required to submit and receive approval of a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) permit. Refuse/Service Area Screen: The submitted site plan, landscape plan or preliminary plat depict where the refuse/service areas will be. 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. All future CUP and CZC applications should clearly demonstrate how this standard is met. Staff Recommendation: Based on the above analysis, staff finds the Preliminary Plat application generally conforms to the Comprehensive Plan policies and UDC standards, as well as the Development Agreement in effect for this site. Staff recommends approval of PP-06.020 with the Conditions listed in Exhibit B of the StaffReoort for Mav 4.2006. 11. EXHIBITS A. Drawings 1. Preliminary Plat (dated March 10, 2006) 2.

Centrepointe Subdivision Exhibit B Page 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 Exhibit C. Required Findings from Unified Development Code Preliminary Plat Findings (UDC 11-6B-6): In determining the acceptance of a proposed subdivision, the Commission and Council shall consider the objectives of this Title and at least the following: A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development Plan; 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 fmds 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 purpose of the C-G district is "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 permanent motoring public." Staff finds that the proposed subdivision is in general conformance with the comprehensive plan (please see Section 8 of the Staff Report for detailed analysis of specific comprehensive plan action items that apply to this development). B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed development; The site is intended for commercial uses which, based on the Comprehensive Plan description, may include retail, wholesale, service and office uses, as well as appropriate public uses such as government offices. The applicant will be responsible for the extension of all utilities necessary to serve this proposed development. All urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able to extend such services to the site. The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay park and highway impact fees. ACHD has yet to prepare a staff report with site specific and standard conditions. Once a staff report is received by City Staff, the conditions will be included in Exhibit B. Rased on the joint agency/department meeting and other C0l111Uellt::; received from agencies/departments, staff finds that public services can be made available to accommodate the proposed development. The Commission and Council should reference any written and/or verbal testimony submitted by any public service provider, regarding their ability to adequately service this proj ect. 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 fmds 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. C. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement program; Because the developer is installing sewer, water, and utilities for the development at their cost, the subdivision will not require the expenditure of capital improvement funds. D. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed development; Please see Exhibit B for comments and conditions from other agencies and departments. Centrepointe Subdivision Exhibit C Page 1 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 4, 2006 E.

Caleb Hood Planning & Zoning Department City of Meridian 200 Watertower Lane, Ste 202 Meridian, ID From: Jonathan R. Seel Subject: CentrePoint Subdivision PP-06-020 - Preliminary Plat for 23 commercial lots The following details our request to modify or clarify conditions in the staff report for the above referenced preliminary plat application: Paragraph 9 F. - States "the applicant is proposirig driveways, rather than a street, that will collect and distribute traffic. . ." The plat shows both a north south public street and driveways that will collect and distribute traffic. Exhibit B 1.1.4 - States the applicant will "mitigate or protect the existing trees on the site. " There are several trees on the site that can not be retained due to their location in relation to the proposed development. However, as the landscape plan shows, these trees will be replaced with an equivalent number. Exhibit B 1.1.1 0 ~ Requires that the pump station facility must be located outside of any required street buffer. The Leighton Lateral was designed and tiled this winter (piping runs parallel to Ustick Road and is located in the street buffer). During review of the plans with Settlers and our civil engineer, it became evident there were constrains as to where the pump station could be located. Both Settlers and our engineer concluded that the only location for the pump was offUstick, approximately 200 feet west of Eagle Road. This is not the ideal location, hut we have no options. We would, therefore, ask that the City permit the pump station in the buffer area along Ustick. C. Caleb Hood City of Meridian Preliminary Plat for CentrePoint Marketplace Page 2 Also in paragraph 1.1.10 it states "Impervious surfaces are prohibited in said buffers" Sidewalk, irrigation pipe and concreted boxes will be located within the buffer area. We ask that this condition be modified. Exhibit B 1.1.13 - Strike the Fair Housing Act. We are not constructing any residential and this Act does not relate to our project. EXHIBIT B 1.1.5 Requires lateral users association approval. The plans for the tiling of the irrigation ditch were reviewed by the Leighton Lateral Association, but written approval was provided by Settlers Irrigation District. Exhibit B 2.8 - Requires the pump station be located on its own lot and not in the landscape buffer. Again we ask that this be waived due to the design constrains discussed above. Exhibit B 2.14 - Requires that street signs, water system, fencing, and drainage lots be installed, and road base be approved prior to applying for a building permit. We believe this requirement should be narrowed to no combustible material is allowed on site until necessary fire hydrants are installed and active, and construction can not commence until a suitable base is in place for emergency vehicles. The other improvements can be addressed in paragraph 2.16. Exhibit B 2.16 - Requires that all development improvements. " be installed and approved prior to obtaining certificate of occupancy. We would ask the City insert or "bonded for".
