Future phases of the project shall require separate Conditional Use Permits for each phase and each must substantially comply with the final approved Concept Plan. Planned Development Regulations: As a mixed/planned use development, the Resolution Plaza development must comply with the following sections of the subdivision ordinance: 12-6-4 Procedures for Planned Developments, 12-6-6 General Regulations for Planned Development, and 12-6-7 General Standards for Planned Developments. In addition, residential areas must comply with 12-6-8-A Design Standards for Planned Development-Residential.

ORDER OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT -PAGE 3 OF 9 BY G. L. VOIGT DEVELOPMENT / OVERLAND 16, L.L.C. FOR PLANNED COIvIMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT / CUP-00-017 Adopt the Recommendations of the Planning and Zoning and Engineering staff as follows: 2.1 This Conditional Use Permit is for the overall concept only. Future phases of the project shall require separate Conditional Use Permits for each phase and each must substantially comply with the final approved Concept Plan. 2.2 Planned Development Regulations: As a mixed/planned use development, the Resolution Plaza development must comply with the following sections of the subdivision ordinance: 12-6-4 Procedures for Planned Developments, 12-6-6 General Regulations for Planned Development, and 12-6-7 General Standards for Planned Developments. In addition, residential areas must comply with 12-6- 8-A Design Standards for Planned Development-Residential. All commercial and office uses must comply with 12-6-8-B Design Standards for Planned Development-Commercial. 2.3 Colored Rendering: Colored renderings of the development must be submitted prior to the City Council meeting to meet the intent of Section 12-6-4 of the PD ordinance. 2.4 Open Space: All Planned Developments (PD) are required to have at least 10% of the gross land area of the PD as common open space as 12- 6-7-E-5. The total common open space calculation for Resolution Plaza is shown separately on Sheets 1-3 (Sites "A" - "C"). Site "A" is 4.53 acres (1.44 required), Site "B" is 5.29 acres (1.45 required), and Site "C" is 4.10 acres (1.86 required). These calculations include landscape buffers and islands.

FOR PLANNED COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT / CUP-00-017 2.5 Parking: The matrix below summarizes the total off-street parking counts for the conceptual PD-C: Site/Use Parking Proposed Parking Required Site "A" -- -- - Retail pads N of first driveway (3) 257 250 - Retail & office pads b/w driveways (2) 183 181 - Office & day care pads S of second 189 100 (est.) driveway Site "A" Total 629 531 Site "B" (Apartment Complex) 553* 460 (2.3/d.u) Site "C" -- -- - Retail & Office pads on Y2K Lane (2) 156 151 - LDS Seminary 17 20 (est.) - Office buildings S of Gala St. (2) 129 98 - Retail & office buildings N of Gala St. (2) 317 287 - Ice Arena 278 286 (1/5) seats The Applicant is proposing 152 tandem parking spaces for the complex. The P&Z Commission discouraged tandem parking for a proposed apartment complex of similar size in October 1999 (Valerie Heights). If the tandem parking is subtracted from the total parking spaces, their total provided would be 401 spaces, and the parking shall be limited to the 401 parking spaces for this project. On the Site "A" plan, a row of parking is proposed along the south edge of the north driveway and along both the north and south edges of the ORDER OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - PAGE 5 OF 9 BY G. L. VOIGT DEVELOPMENT / OVERLAND 16, L.L.C. FOR PLANNED COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT / CUP-00-017 2.6 2.7 2.8 2.9 south driveway with no separation. The likelihood of these private driveways receiving high volumes of traffic at build-out (functioning more as public roads), would be unsafe and shall be relocated. The first parking stalls are less than 40 feet from the property line and vehicles bacldng out of the stalls into the drive aisle would likely be a hazard for vehicles entering the site off Locust Grove. The proposed Ice Arena seats a total of 1,430 people. Technically, the Applicant meets City ordinance, which is based on one stall for every 5 seats. (If one assumes the arena will utilize the parldng north of Gala Street for evening events, an additional 317 stalls could feasiblely be added to serve the arena, providing a total of 595 stalls.) Parking Lot Landscaping: Landscape islands serving a single row of parking shall have one tree. Islands serving a double row of parldng shall have two trees. A minimum of one 3" caliper tree per 1500 square feet of asphalt (including driveways connecting from the loop road) is required per City Ordinance. Streets and Circulation: A proposed stub road (Gala Street) to the east, is unplatted property. Access shall be provided internally with a connection between Sites "A" and "B". There is a conflict between the Concept Plan and Plat for the Seminary site. The plat proposes a flag lot for Lot 4, Block 1 (the proposed 19,648 s.f office building), with the flag serving as the driveway. However, the Concept Plan shows the seminary utilizing the flag driveway, not the office, and it shall be noted for future cross access agreements. Signage: The Applicant submitted a letter from Idaho Electric Signs regarding signage for the apartment complex and a letter from Patrick McKeegan outlining intent for the ice arena signage. The monument signs shall not exceed 70 s.f. All signage throughout the PD-C shall be coordinated and complement building materials and themes. This applies to all future buildings. Trash Enclosures: No trash enclosures are shown on the Conceptual Site Plan. All such areas shall be situated outside of view from either Overland or Locust Grove Roads. Applicant shall coordinate locations ORDER OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - PAGE 6 OF 9 BY G. L. VOIGT DEVELOPMENT / OVERLAND 16, L.L.C. FOR PLANNED COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT / CUP-00-017 2.10 and construction requirements of the required trash enclosures with Meridian Sanitary Service, Inc., and provide a letter of approval £rom their office when applying for a Certificate of Zoning Compliance. Hours of Operation: No details of hours of operation are provided. For the future CUP applications, all office and retail uses shall be harmonious with the apartment complex and residential homes to the west. 2.11 Alternative Transportation Options: At build-out, this site would serve as a principal center of employment for the east Meridian/west Boise area. While Boise Urban Stages does not currently service Ovedand Road, it has the potential to be a likely destination point for mass transit in the future. An area shall be designated and/or preserved on the Concept Plan for a future bus stop. The inclusion of bicycle racks at all office and retail buildings and the ice hockey arena shall be included. 2.12 All conditions placed on this application shall run with the land and shall not lapse or be waived as the result of any change in tenancy or ownership of any or all of the lands governed by this CUP application. All such conditions shall be deemed the requirements for the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for any use or structure as per City Ordinance. 2.13 Applicant shall utilize the Ada County Highway District design standards for the private street within this development, with the exception of width requirements. Street designs shall be reviewed and approved by the City of Meridian Public Works Department. 2.14 ] Developer shall, in any future development, insure that emergency vehicular access through this property from Locust Grove Road to the parcel lying to the east (RZ-00-003) shall be designed and built.
