Bruce Freckleton, Senior Engineering Tech ~ September 27,2002 RECEIVED SEP 3 D 2002 MEMORANDUM: To: Planning & Zoning Commission, Mayor and City Council Re: City Of Meridian City Clerk Office Request for a Rezone of 4 Acres of Land, Located at 2511 W. Cherry Lane, from R-4 (Low Density Residential) to IrO (Limited Office) Zoning, by Cherry Lane Christian Church (File No. RZ-02-003) Request for a Conditional Use Permit for a PreschoollPrivate School in a proposed L-O Zone by Cherry Lane Christian Church (File No. CUP-02-027) We have reviewed the above-referenced submittal and offer the following comments, as conditions of the applicant. These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council: APPLICATION SUMMARY The applicant, Cherry Lane Christian Church, has requested rezone of their property at 2511 W. Cherry Lane from the current R-4 zone to L-O. The current zoning ofR-4 makes the church a non-conforming use-churches are prohibited in the R-4 zone, but the Cherry Lane Christian Church has been on the site for many years and has "grandfather rights". The requested rezone would clean up the situation, as churches are permitted in the L-O zone. The applicant is also requesting a Conditional Use Permit for a preschool and future private school. Existing classrooms would be used for preschooVprivate school use. Private schools are prohibited in the current R-4 zone, but are a conditional use in the L-O zone. Other proposed improvements to the site include an enclosed tot lot addition, two lobby expansions, and a library/storage expansion. A revised site plan, dated 9-13-02, also proposes a parking lot expansion to the east, on property currently owned by Nampa Meridian Irrigation District (NMID) for the Nine Mile Creek. The applicant is proposing to tile the creek and add two rows of parking with landscaping. The applicant has submitted a letter from NMID stating that they "would consider conceptually" the proposal. The applicant is also showing an 8-foot wide asphalt pathway in the 20-foot buffer east of the parking lot. RZ-""" ChenyLaru:CbristianCJwn:h.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27, 2002 Page 2 LOCATION & SURROUNDING USES The subject property is generally located on the south side of Cherry Lane, approximately halfway between Linder and Ten Mile Roads. The address is 2511 W. Cherry Lane. SURROUNDING PROPERTIES North - Single-family homes (Sunnybrook Farms Subdivision) zoned R-4. South - Single-family residences (Haven Cove Subdivision) zoned R-4. East - Single-family residences (The Vineyards Subdivision) zoned R-4. West - Single-family residences (Haven Cove Subdivision) zoned R-4. STANDARDS FOR ZONING AMENDMENT The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning amendment (11-15-11): A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a Comprehensive plan amendment; Staff finds that the application was filed on 8/1/02, just prior to the adoption of the new Comprehensive Plan, and is therefore technically under the policies of the 1993 Comprehensive Plan. The 1993 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as "Existing Urban". The new Comprehensive Plan designates the property as "Public/Quasi-Public". Churches are a quasi-public use. The requested L-O zoning is harmonious with both the "Existing Urban" and "Public/Quasi-Public" designations and is in accordance with the overall goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be re-zoned in the future; Staff finds that the proposed zoning amendment complies with the intended zone(s) supported by the Future Land Use Map. The property is not intended for another rezone in the future. C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning; RZ-02-o03 Cheny Lrme Christian Chun:h.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27,2002 Page 3 Staff finds that the existing church development is in accordance with the uses permitted in the proposed L-O zone. Any other use would have to be considered under the appropriate zoning review process. D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that tbe area sbould be rezoned; The existing legal, non-conforming status of the church suggests that it may be appropriate to rezone the area to make those it a legal, conforming use. The proposed rezone would have such an effect on the church property. E. Will tbe proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be barmonious and appropriate in appearance witb the existing or intended cbaracter of tbe general vicinity and that sucb use will not change tbe essential cbaracter of tbe same area; Staff finds that the existing church use is appropriate and harmonious with tbe existing area and that it will not change the essential character of the general vicinity (as it has been there for many years). Any other uses, such as the proposed preschooVprivate school, could be harmonious with the existing and intended character oftbe same area, if constructed and operated appropriately. Any uses other than the church use will require zoning approval, as determined by the Schedule of Use Control in the City's Zoning Ordinance. F. Will not be bazardous or disturbing to existing or future neigbboring uses; Staff finds that the re-zone to L-O should not be disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses. The Commission and Council should carefully consider all public testimony before making this finding. G. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services sucb as bigbways, street, police, and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water, sewer or tbat tbe person responsible for the establisbment of proposed conditional use sbaD be able to provide adequately any such service; Staff finds that the proposed uses will be adequately served by all essential public services and facilities. H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to tbe economic welfare of the community; Staff finds that the requested uses will not create excessive additional requirements at public costs for public facilities and services. Additionally, staff finds that the proposed rezone would not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. RZ-02-o03 Cheny lmle Christian Church.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27,2002 Page 4 I. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment, and conditions that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffie, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors; Staff finds that any proposed L-O zoned property will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment, and conditions that are detrimental to the general welfare of the community. J. Will have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public streets; Staff finds that the proposed use will not interfere with general traffic patterns on any public streets. ACHD has stated that the project is expected to generate less than 10 new vehicle trips per day on surrounding streets. School drop-off/pickup vehicle trips are considered by ACHD as "pass-by" traffic that is likely to have already been on the roads anyway, and are therefore not considered to be adding congestion. K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature of major importance. Staff does not find that any natural or scenic feature will be lost, damaged or destroyed by approval of this rezone. Nine Mile Creek runs adjacent to the subject property and will not necessarily be affected by the rezone, but may be affected by the accompanying Conditional Use Permit (CUP) if the creek is piped. This issue will be explored in greater detail under the findings for the CUP. L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City; Staff finds that the zoning amendment would be in the best interest of the City by bringing an existing non-conforming use into conforming status. SITE SPECIFIC COMMENTS 1. The legal description submitted with the application is accurate and meets the requirements of the City of Meridian and State Tax Commission. 2. Staff has determined that the rezone request would meet each of the twelve (12) Findings required by Ordinance 11-15-11. 3. If rezoned to L-O, the subject lot would conform to the minimum lot size and minimum frontage of the zone. 4. The existing site does not conform to all of the current standards of the Landscape Ordinance, specifically the required buffer between land uses parking lot landscaping RZ-02.003 Cheuy Lane Christian Churclt.R.Z.CUP Mayor and Council September 27, 2002 Page 5 requirements, Staff recommends that the site not be required to come into full compliance until such time as the parking lot is significantly modified per Ordinance 12-13-11-4. 5. The existing freestanding sign is out of compliance with the City's Sign Ordinance for the proposed L-O zone. Staff recommends that the sign be granted legal, nonconforming status and subject to the provisions of Ordinance 11-14-8.B for legal, nonconforming SignS. 6., Any assessments or re-assessments for sewer and water service for any new uses will be determined during the Certificate of Occupancy process. SITE SPECIFIC CONDmONS Staff recommends the follawing be made conditions of the Rezone: 1. The existing parking lot landscaping will be subject to ordinance 12-13-11-4 and upgraded to meet current standards upon any significant parking lot replacement per said ordinance. 2. The existing sign shall be granted legal, non-conforming status and become subject to the provisions of ordinance ll-14-8.B. STANDARD REZONE CONDITIONS 1. Remove any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project from their domestic service per City Ordinance. Wells may be used for non-domestic purposes such as landscape irrigation. 2. All signage in the proposed project shall be in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 11-14 of the City of Meridian Zoning and Development Ordinance. 3. Provide off-street parking in accordance with the City of Meridian Ordinance 11-13 for use of property. 4. All construction shall conform to the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed conditional use in terms of the following and may approve a conditional use permit if they shall find evidence presented at the hearing(s) is adequate to establish (11- 17-3): A. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and all yards, open RZ-02-o0J Cherry Lane Chri5ti!ln ChIUllh.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27, 2002 Page 6 spaces, parking, landscaping and other features as may be required by this ordinance; Staff finds that the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use (preschool/private school) and related features that would be required by the ordinance. B. That the proposed use and development plan will be harmonious with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan and in accordance with the requirements ofthis Ordinance; The 1993 Comprehensive Plan shows the subject property as "Existing Urban"; the current Comprehensive Plan shows the property as "Public/Quasi-Public". Proposed zoning is L-O; private schools require a CUP in the L-O zone according to the Zoning Schedule of Use Control. Staff finds the proposed use and plan to be in Compliance with the Meridian Zoning Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan, as long as the conditions of the staff report are met. C. That the design, construction, operation, and maintenance will be compatible with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not adversely change the essential character of the same area; Staff fmds that the proposed development will not adversely change the essential character of the general vicinity and will be harmonious with the intended character of the same area. D. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval imposed, will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity; Staff does not believe the proposed use will adversely affect other property in the vicinity.

F. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for pnblic facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community; RZ-02..o03 Cheny Utne Christian ChllJCh.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27, 2002 page 7 Staff finds that the proposed use would not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community, nor would it create the need for any new facilities or services to be paid for by the public. G. That the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials, equipment, and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors; Staff does not anticipate that the proposed use will be detrimental to the general welfare of the community by means of increased traffic, noise, smoke fumes, glare or odors generated by the use. ACHD has stated that the project is expected to generate less than 10 new vehicle trips per day on surrounding streets. School drop-oft7pickup vehicle trips are considered by ACHD as "pass-by" traffic that is likely to have already been on the roads anyway, and are therefore not considered to be adding congestion. H. That the proposed use win have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public streets; Staff finds that the proposed use will not create significant interference with traffic on the surrounding public streets. The applicant has not proposed any new curb cuts onto existing streets. I. That the proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature considered to be of major importance. Staff finds that a natural or scenic feature may be lost, damaged or destroyed by issuance of this conditional use. The revised application proposes to pipe the Nine Mile Creek and add a parking lot expansion, landscape buffer, and pathway over the top of it. The 1993 Comprehensive Plan states the following policies: 3.l.b. (page 61): Play a major role in conserving area scenic and natural values, especially waterways, drainageways, and natural habitat. 5.3 (page 63): Any fish, wildlife, and vegetation species and habitat should be protected and maintained along...Nine Mile Creek...provided it is in the best interests of the City of Meridian. ... 1.8 (page 71): The appearance of natural creeks (Five Mile, Nine Mile, Ten Mile, and South Slough) throughout commercial activity centers... [and] residential areas...should be improved and harmonized with adjoining land uses in order to protect water quality of the streams. . . as well as to enhance their environmental amenities. RZ-02-D03 Chm1y Lane Clu:isti3n Churoh.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27, 2002 Page 8 The new 2002 Comprehensive Plan expands the same policies with similar statements: Objective A.I (page 39) states "Preserve and conserve our waterways, wetlands, wildlife habitat, and other natural resources. Action item II (page 39) states that the City is to "Improve and protect creeks (Five Mile, Eight Mile, Nine Mile, Ten Mile, South Slough, and Jackson and Evans drainages) throughout commercial, industrial and residential areas. Therefore, the Commission and Council need to consider the facts, policies, and testimony at the hearing to determine if preserving the Nine Mile Creek as an open waterway is in the best interest of the City. SPECIAL CONSIDERA nONS The following items are special issues with the project that warrant discussion with the Commission andlor Council. 1. Piping of Nine Mile Creek: As described above, the applicant is proposing to pipe the Nine Mile Creek adjacent to the subject property. Nampa Meridian Irrigation District (NMID) is the titled owner of the property where the proposed piping and parking lot expansion would occur. NMID has stated that they "would consider conceptually" the proposal, but it is not yet clear whether they would permit the landscaping as proposed. The Comprehensive Plan contains several policies that would support a requirement to leave the creek open. The Commission and Council need to determine if it is in the best interest of the City to leave it open or to allow it to be piped. 2. SanitarY Sewer Trunk: The City of Meridian owns and maintains a 21-inch diameter sewer trunk line that parallels the Nine Mile Creek. This trunk line is within a 20-foot wide easement along the east side of Nine Mile Creek. Access must be maintained to this line at all times. Landscaping (trees) will be limited within the easement area. 3. Pathway: The 1993 Comprehensive Plan did not specifically require a pathway along Nine Mile Creek. The 2002 Comprehensive Plan does require a pathway. The applicant is proposing an 8-foot wide pathway within the required 20-foot buffer between land uses as a compromise "good faith effort" to meet the intended direction of the new Comprehensive Plan. The Parks Department's standard requirement is for a 10-foot wide pathway. Staff recommends making a condition of approval to provide the IO-foot wide pathway. To avoid crowding the proposed landscaping, staff recommends redesigning the parking lot to include 17-foot deep parking stalls (allowing for a 2-foot overhang) and a 25-foot drive aisle (it is currently over 28 feet wide). This would provide an additional 5 feet to the landscape buffer (15 landscaping and 10 foot pathway). Of course, if the creek remains RZ-02-003 CheDy Lane Clu:iItian Chmch.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27,2002 Page 9 unpiped and the parking lot is not expanded, there would be no crowding caused by widening the pathway 2 feet. 4. Number of Students: The application does not state an enrollment cap for the number of students anticipated at the site. In a conversation with the applicant, staff has learned that they have two classrooms designed for preschool use and intend to have a maximum of 14 students per classroom. They also intend to start with just a morning session, but may add an afternoon session in the future. Based on this information, staff recommends verifying these figures with the applicant during the hearing and capping the enrollment at 56 students-28 morning and 28 afternoon. 5. Future Private School: The applicant also wishes to make their intent known to add other grades in the future, i.e kindergarten, first grade, etc. These future grades may be several years away before they are actually implemented. The Commission and Council may wish to require a separate CUP approval for the private school for the higher grades when the church is actually ready to do it. Staff was told the church currently has 5 smaller classrooms available for the future grades. Another option is that the Commission and Council could approve the future use as part of this CUP and simply require that the applicant submit for a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) to verify parking and occupancy requirements. 6. Buffer Between Land Uses: Along the west property line, there is a 5-foot +/- planting strip that currently contains nothing but lava rock. Staff recommends a condition of approval to add one tree per 35 lineal feet in that existing planter and remove lava rock per requirement #2 below. No other improvements will be required to the existing parking lot landscaping at this time. The landscaping will be subject to ordinance 12-13- 11-4 and upgraded to meet current standards upon any significant parking lot replacement per said ordinance. SITE SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS I. Parking Lot Expansion: Option A-- The proposed parking expansion is denied based on Comprehensive Plan policies that support protection of the natural creeks and waterways in the City. It is in the best interest of the City to preserve the open space and habitat provided by the Nine Mile Creek. Option B-It is in the best interest of the City to allow piping of the Nine Mile Creek and approve the proposed parking lot expansion. The proposed parking lot shall be designed with 9x17 spaces and a 25-foot drive aisle. There shall be no more than 12 spaces in a row without a landscape planter per City Ordinance. 2. Existing Parking Lot: add one tree per 35 lineal feet in the existing planter on the west side of the property. Also, replace the lava rock in said planter with vegetation-Leo RZ-02'()Q3 Cheny Lane Cbristi8n Chmcll.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27, 2002 Page 10 grass or shrubs and bark mulch. The remaining existing landscaping will be subject to ordinance 12-13 -11-4 and upgraded to meet current standards upon any significant parking lot replacement per said ordinance. 3. Street Buffer: A 25-fool wide, minimum, landscape buffer shall be required along Cherry Lane. 4. Pathway: A 10-foot wide asphalt path shall be required along the Nine Mile Creek. 5. Number of Students: Enrollment for the preschool use shall be restricted to 56 students-28 morning and 28 afternoon. 6. Future Private School: Option A: Prior to enrollment of students for kindergarten or higher, the applicant shall be required to obtain separate CUP approval as a private elementary school. Option B: Applicant shall be required to obtain a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) from P&Z staff prior to adding any additional grades beyond the approved pre- school use. 7. Water/sewer: This facility is currently served by the City of Meridian's sanitary sewer and water systems. Existing sanitary sewer and water assessments will 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 the building permit. The City of Meridian owns and maintains a 21-inch diameter sewer trunk line that parallels the Nine Mile Creek. This trunk line is within a 20-foot wide easement along the east side of Nine Mile Creek. Access must be maintained to this line at all times. Landscaping will be limited within the easement area. Please show the location of the existing 21-inch sewer trunk line, and limits of the existing easement, on the sitellandscaping plans at least ten days prior to the City Council hearing for the requested CUPlRezone . STANDARD REOUIREMENTS 1. Existing trees shall be protected and retained in accordance with Meridian City Code 12- 13-13. 2.

Ail construction and site improvements shall conform to the requirements of the RZ-02-o0J Cbeny Lll1le Christion Churoh.RZ.CUP Mayor and Council September 27,2002 Page 11 Americans with Disabilities Act. 4. A drainage plan designed by a State ofIdaho licensed architect or engineer is required and shall be submitted to the City Engineer (Ord. 557, 10-1-91) for all off-street parking areas. All drainage water is to be maintained on-site. Storm water treatment and disposal must be designed in accordance with Department of Environmental Quality 1997 publication Catalog of Storm Water Best Management Practices for Idaho Cities and Counties and City of Meridian standards and policies. Off-site disposal into surface water is prohibited unless the jurisdiction which has authority over the receiving stream provides written authorization prior to development plan approval. The applicant is responsible for filing all necessary applications with the Idaho Department of Water Resources regarding Shallow Injection Wells. 5. All exterior lighting, whether attached to the building or located within the parking lot, shall be down-shielded or otherwise altered so that the light does not spill over onto adjacent properties or right-of-way. All parking lot lighting shall be in accordance with Ordinance 11-13-4.C. 6. All signage shall be in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 11-14 of the City Zoning and Development Ordinance or as specifically approved. All signage is subject to design review and shall require separate permits. 7. Provide five-foot-wide pedestrian walkways in accordance with City Ordinance. 8. Screen trash areas on at least three (3) sides. Coordinate screened trash enclosure locations and construction requirements with Sanitary Service Company and provide a letter of approval from their office when applying for a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC). 9.
