Development Agreement Modification (MDA): The Applicant proposes an amendment to the existing Development Agreement(DA) associated with H-2021-0081,recorded as Inst. #2022-049799, as follows: (Staffs comments in italics) • New DA provision—"4.3:Notwithstanding anything in the UDC or this Agreement to the contrary,Warehouse,including distribution,and Flex Space uses shall not be permitted in that portion of the property zoned M-E and designated"Warehouse&Flex Space Use Not Allowed"as shown on the map and described in the associated legal description/exhibit map in Section VI.B of the First Amendment." The inclusion of this restriction on approximately 113 of the ME(Mixed-Employment) zoned area will ensure the property develops with a mix of employment uses as desired by the City with a limitation on flex and warehouse uses. • Modify DA provision#5.1 a, as follows: "Development of the subject property shall be generally consistent with the site plan,qualified open space exhibit, site amenity exhibit, pedestrian circulation plan,preliminary plat,phasing plan, landscape plan and conceptual building elevations s„b„ hied with the .,ppli.a4iers contained h in the Development Agreement.An updated phasing plan for the development is included in Section WA of the First Amendment and by this reference incorporated herein as if set forth in full." Development priorities have changed, along with property ownership, since the time of the initial approvals; the proposed change will allow development to proceed in an alternate order. • Update the phasing plan—see Section WA below for existing vs.proposed phasing plan. The existing phasing plan depicts the following: 1) Is`phase—the southern portion of the R-15 zoned property; 2)2nd phase—the ME zoned property; 3) 3.d phase—the northern portion of the R-15 zoned property; 4) 4th phase—the H-E zoned property; and 5) the C- C zoned property. The proposed plan depicts the following: 1) 1 S`phase—the M-E zoned property at the southwest corner of the property; 2)2nd phase—the C-C and H-E zoned property on the Page 3 eastern portion of the property; and 3) 3.d phase—the R-I S zoned property on the northern portion of the site. • Inclusion of alternative design and development guidelines for the distribution and light manufacturing area(i.e.warehouse/distribution and light industry/manufacturing uses) with the conceptual elevations shown in Section VI.C; and modification to the following DA provisions: o #5.1b: "All future development, site design and building design shall comply with the guidelines in the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP) and the standards in the Architectural Standards Manual(ASM),as applicable unless otherwise modified herein. The City Council approved alternatives to the design guidelines in the TMISAP consisting of lower roof pitches of 2:12 for the community clubhouse amenity buildings and 3:12 for the townhome garages to allow larger windows with lower sills at the second level; and front patios with railings that frame off the entrances that are covered by the above balconies instead of front stoops due to concerns pertaining to compliance with ADA requirements." o #5.1i: "Development in the M-E district shall be consistent with the development guidelines contained in the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP) for Mixed Employment(ME)designated areas except for the M-E zoned area where warehouse,including distribution, and light industry, including manufacturing,uses are proposed as shown on the map and described in the associated legal description/exhibit map included in Section VI.C. In that area, a minimum of 8%windows on the frontage and a single plane wall maximum distance of 150' without building modulation will be allowed as shown on the exhibits in Section VI.0 instead of 20%windows and a single plane wall maximum equal to the building height without building modulation shown as examples on the transect on pg. 3-50 in the TMISAP. Only the buildingfaces aces shown in red on the exhibit will be considered frontage." The TMISAP has elevated guidelines that apply to development within the TMISAP area. The Architectural Standards Manual(ASH)applies to all properties within the City, with established baseline minimum standards. These are in addition to the elevated guidelines in the Plan. The front/south side of the southernmost building will be highly visible from I-84,the front of the other buildings will be internal to the site and not as visible.Staff is unable to support requests for deviations from the guidelines in the Plan due to conflicts with the lesser ASH standards prior, apart from and prior to the design review process. Commercial ASM standards apply to M-E zoned areas, but the buildings are of an industrial style and may conflict with other citywide ASM standards as well.Action is needed from Council for such requests. If Council approves the proposed deviations to the design guidelines in the Plan, the Applicant will need to include a request for a design standard exception with each commercial standard in the ASM that is not met, with subsequent administrative Design Review applications.Any such related request will likely not comply with the design standards in the ASM. o #5.11: "Design elements shall be provided within the overall development as required in the Application of the Design Elements matrix on pg. 3-49 of the TMISAP, except as otherwise allowed herein." Page 4 This change allows for the above-noted exceptions if approved by City Council. • Modification to DA provision#5.1.m—"The sttbjeet^ pet4y shall be s„l.,aiyide,] " r*E) The Applicant may submit a-Design Review, Certificate of Zoning Compliance,and building permit application(s)to finalize building des . prior to recordation of the final plat(s)for the lot on which a building is located,however,the applicant will not receive the Certificate of Occupancy for any buildings prior to the recordation of the final plat for the lot on which the building is located." The proposed change will allow development to commence but will still require the plat to be recorded prior to occupancy. V. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the requested modifications to the DA, except for the deviations from the design guidelines in the TMISAP,which require Council approval. B. The Meridian City Council heard these items on July 9,2024. At the public hearing.the Council moved to approve the subject MDA request. 1. Summary of the City Council public hearing a.
