III. STAFF ANALYSIS
Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Code(UDC)
A. General Overview
The applicant is requesting a modification to an approved conditional use permit to redesign the
site, elevations, and modify the bedroom count. The original CUP was approved with 36 units
and all of them being 2-bedrooms. The applicant has decided to change the bedroom count to 18
1-bedroom and 18 2-bedroom units.Additionally,the site was redesigned to reduce the building
count from 8 to 3 buildings. The original plan shows 8 garden style apartment buildings while the
new plan is 3 climate-controlled apartment buildings.
The proposed use and density of the development is consistent with the Mixed-Use Community
(MU-C)FLUM designation.

B. History and Process
The first MDA&CUP application(H-2022-0073 Meridian OZ Apartments) for a 60-unit multi-
family development,with a density of 25 units per acre,was denied by City Council. The denial
was based on the density not aligning with the existing DA and the proposed sole access via
Locust Grove presenting significant traffic safety concerns with the number of units proposed
only using the one access. The Council stated actions to gain approval could include reducing the
number of units to be more consistent with that contemplated in the existing DA and better
ingress/egress for the site.
The previous CUP was approved for a 36-unit multi-family development at a density of 15
units/acre.
C. Site Development and Use Analysis
1. Proposed Use Analysis (UDC 11-2):
The previous CUP was approved for a multi-family development consisting of 36 dwelling
units in eight(8)3-story structures on 2.39 acres of land in the R-40 zoning district. All of the
units were proposed to have 2 bedrooms each. The gross density for the development is 15
units/acre consistent with that approved in the existing development agreement and with the
guidelines in the Comprehensive Plan for MU-C designated areas.
The proposed use is consistent with the previous approval;however,they have shifted to have
3 climate-controlled apartment buildings consisting of 12 units each. Staff has some concerns
City of Meridian I Department Report III. Staff Analysis
about the orientation of the building entrances as they are not visible from the drive aisle.
This can cause safety issues and make it difficult for emergency services to monitor the area.
Staff recommends Buildings 1 and 2 are reoriented to provide better visibility of the
entrances or pedestrian lighting is provided to add additional visibility. Staff has reviewed
these provisions and included comments below and conditions of approval in Section IX.
2. Dimensional Standards (UDC 11-2):
The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the dimensional
standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-6 for the R-40 zoning district. The proposed
development appears to comply with the dimensional standards of the district.
3. Specific Use Standards (UDC 11-4-3):
i. Residential buildings shall provide a minimum setback of ten feet(10)unless a greater
setback is otherwise required by this title and/or title 10 of this Code. Building setbacks
shall take into account windows, entrances,porches, and patios, and how they impact
adjacent properties. The proposed buildings shown on the site plan shall comply with this
standard. However, in discussion with our building department, 10 feet of separation is
required between carports and the building. Building#3 appears to be 5 feet from the
carport on the south side of the building which requires this building to be shifted to the
north five additional feet to meet building code requirements. The changes should be
reflected on the site plan submitted with the certificate of zoning compliance application.
ii. All on-site service areas, outdoor storage areas,waste storage, disposal facilities,and
transformer and utility vaults shall be located in an area not visible from a public street,
or shall be fully screened from view from a public street. The site plan depicts a trash
enclosure within the perimeter buffer at the Southeast corner of the site and another trash
enclosure at the Northeast portion of the site. Neither of which are visible from the public
street due to landscaping screening the enclosures.
iii. A minimum of eighty(80)square feet of private,usable open space shall be provided for
each unit. This requirement can be satisfied through porches,patios, decks, and/or
enclosed yards. Landscaping, entryways and other access ways shall not count toward
this requirement. In circumstances where strict adherence to such standards would create
inconsistency with the purpose statements of this section,the Director may consider an
alternative design proposal through the alternative compliance provisions as set forth in
section 11-5B-5 of this title. The Applicant states each patio will be roughly 80 square
feet. Floor plans should be submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance
application that demonstrate compliance with this standard.
iv. For the purposes of this section,vehicular circulation areas,parking areas, and private
usable open space shall not be considered common open space. These areas were not
included in the common open space calculations for the site.
v. No recreational vehicles, snowmobiles,boats or other personal recreation vehicles shall
be stored on the site unless provided for in a separate,designated and screened area. The
Applicant shall comply with this requirement.
vi. The parking shall meet the requirements set forth in chapter 3, "Regulations Applying to
All Districts", of this title. The proposed parking meets and exceeds UDC standards per
the analysis below.
City of Meridian I Department Report III. Staff Analysis
D. Design Standards Analysis
1. Qualified Open Space &Amenities (Comp Plan, UDC 11-3G):
Goals 2.02.00 and 2.02.01B of the Comprehensive Plan focus on creating safe, attractive, and
well-maintained neighborhoods with ample open space, diverse amenities, and alignment
with community needs and values. For multi-family developments,there are specific open
space and amenity requirements to support these goals.
Open Space Requirements:
1. Baseline Requirement: For multi-family developments of five acres or more,the total
baseline common open space must equal or exceed 10%of the gross land area. Since the
proposed site is 2.39 acres,this baseline requirement does not apply.
2. Additional Open Space Standards (UDC 11-4-3-27C.5):
o Units<500 sq. ft.: 150 sq. ft.per unit(not applicable here).
o Units>500 sq. ft. and< 1,200 sq. ft.: 250 sq. ft.per unit. All 36 units fall within
this range.
o Units> 1,200 sq. ft.: 350 sq. ft.per unit(not applicable here).
Given that all units are between 832 sq. ft. and 1,073 sq. ft.,the total required open space
is 36 units X 250 sq. ft. =9,000 sq. ft. (or 0.21 acres).
3. Common Grassy Area: Multi-family projects with over 20 units must provide at least
one common grassy area of 5,000 sq. ft. to accommodate general activities for all ages.
This requirement scales with the number of units. For 36 units, a proportionate area is
9,000 sq. ft. (based on 250 sq. ft.per unit). The proposed site includes a total of 16,664
sq. ft. (or 0.383 acres)of common open space. However, a portion of the open space is
adjacent to Franklin Road which requires Commissions approval in order to count
towards open space. Staff is recommending a berm or barrier of at least 4 feet in height
proposed along E. Franklin Road to help with this. While some areas do not meet the
qualified open space standards,the central open space exceeds 5,000 sq. ft., and the total
proposed open space meets the minimum requirements.
Amenity Requirements(UDC 11-4-3-27D):
For multi-family developments with 20 to 75 units,three amenities must be provided,with at
least one from each of the following categories:
1. Quality of Life: Outdoor clubhouse and enclosed bike storage.
2. Open Space: Picnic area.
3. Recreation: Pathway.
4. Multi-modal: Bike repair station.
The proposed amenities meet the minimum standards,ensuring that the development supports
the quality of life, open space, and recreational needs of its residents.
2. Landscaping (UDC 11-3B):
i. Landscape buffers along streets
A 25-foot wide street buffer is required along E. Franklin and S. Locust Grove Roads,
both arterial streets, landscaped per the standards in UDC 11-3B-7C. The DA requires a
City of Meridian I Department Report III. Staff Analysis
landscape setback of 35-feet to be provided beyond the required right-of-way of Franklin
Rd.;the proposed plan depicts a 50'+1-landscape setback in accord with this provision.
ii. Parking lot landscaping
Landscaping is required to be provided along all parking areas per the standards listed in
UDC 11-313-8. The proposed landscape plan does not meet the minimum requirements.
The landscape plan should be revised to include a tree in every planter island, if this is
not feasible due to utility easements, alternative compliance shall be applied for with the
certificate of zoning compliance submittal.
iii. Landscape buffers to adjoining uses
The perimeter buffers along the west and south boundaries are required to be landscaped
per the standards listed in UDC 11-313-8C.1 for parking lots. A minimum of one(1) Class
II or III tree is required every 35 linear feet along with shrubs and vegetative
groundcover. The landscape plan should be revised to include trees and calculations that
demonstrate compliance with the standard on the Southern property boundary.
iv. Tree preservation
Mitigation is required for all existing trees 4-inch caliper or greater that are removed from
the site as set forth in UDC 11-3B-1OC.5.Include mitigation information on the
landscape plan that demonstrates compliance with these standards.
v. Storm integration
Storm drainage is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-18.
Drainage swales should not be within the landscape setbacks along Franklin and Locust
Grove Roads as set forth in the development agreement.
vi. Pathway landscaping
Landscaping is required to be provided along all pathways per the standards listed in
UDC 11-313-12C; The proposed landscape plan does not meet all of these requirements.
A tree is required on either side of the pathway every 100 linear feet. This is not being
met for a portion of the pathway on the east portion of the site.A revised landscape plan
shall be submitted with the certificate ofzoning compliance.
3. Parking (UDC 11-3Q:
i. Residential parking analysis
The parking shall meet the requirements set forth in chapter 3, "Regulations Applying to
All Districts", of this title. The proposed parking meets and exceeds UDC standards per
the analysis below.
Based on(18)2-bedroom units and(18) 1-bedroom units,a minimum of 67 off-street
parking spaces are required, including four(4) spaces for guest parking,with 36 of those
in a covered carport or garage.Accessible parking is required in accord with ADA
standards.
A total of 73 spaces are proposed,including 36 covered spaces,meeting the minimum
requirement.
Any parking abutting a sidewalk or landscaped area shall either be widened to 7-feet
where 5-feet is currently depicted and the length of the stalls reduced to 17-feet if wheel
stops are not desired in parking spaces; otherwise wheel stops shall be provided to
prevent vehicle overhang.Wheel stops should be added in all of the carport parking
spaces to prevent vehicle overhang onto the adjacent walkway.
ii. Bicycle parking analysis
City of Meridian I Department Report III. Staff Analysis
Based on 73 vehicle parking spaces, a minimum of three(3)bicycle parking spaces
should be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3C-5C. Bicycle storage
is proposed at the pavilion as depicted on the site plan. A bicycle rack capable of holding
a minimum of three(3)bicycles, is provided in the central common area for guests in
accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3C-5C.
4. Building Elevations (Comp Plan, Architectural Standards Manual):
Goals 5.01.02D and 5.01.02A of the Comprehensive Plan emphasize the importance of
building design and landscaping in buffering, screening,beautifying, and integrating
commercial,multifamily, and parking areas with existing neighborhoods. The schematic
renderings for the proposed 3-story structures, detailed in Section V.G,reveal a design
utilizing a mix of EIFS siding and metal accents in a neutral color scheme.
To ensure the buildings meet these goals, Staff recommends incorporating modulation and
pedestrian-scale elements to enhance the visual interest and integration of the structures. The
final design of all buildings must comply with the standards outlined in the Architectural
Standards Manual. The applicant has revised the elevations to better align with the
surrounding buildings and the city's architectural standards,reflecting a commitment to
meeting the design and aesthetic requirements.
5. Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6, 11-3A-7):
All fencing is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. A chain-link
fence with wire strands along the top exists around the ACHD storm drainage pond to the
northeast of this site. The applicant shall work with ACHD to modify this fencing and
potentially move it closer to the drainage on the neighboring property. The landscape plan
correctly depicts this on the eastern boundary of the site. A 6-foot tall closed vision vinyl
fence is shall be included along the southern boundary of the site adjacent to the existing
residence in accord with the development agreement.
E. Transportation Analysis
1. Access (Comp Plan, UDC 11-3A-3, UDC 11-3H-4):
Goals 6.01.01H and 6.01.02B of the Comprehensive Plan emphasize reducing the number of
access points onto arterial streets through methods such as cross-access agreements,access
management, and frontage or backage roads. These goals also stress the importance of
enhancing local and collector street connectivity and incorporating pedestrian access
connectors to link subdivisions and promote neighborhood connectivity within the
community pathway system.
For the proposed development, access is planned via S. Locust Grove Rd.,with no access
allowed from E. Franklin Rd. The existing curb cut on Franklin Rd. must be removed, and
curbing extended across the former driveway as part of the development.
The Police Department has recommended that access via Locust Grove be restricted to right-
in/right-out only for safety reasons. Although the ACHD report does not currently include
such a restriction, if the Commission concurs with the Police Department's recommendation,
a provision should be incorporated to enforce this restriction.Additionally,the Police
Department has suggested implementing traffic calming measures within the north/south
drive aisle to enhance tenant and pedestrian safety. Staff has included a condition of approval
to address this recommendation.
Given that both the subject property and the adjacent property to the south are designated
MU-C (Mixed Use-Commercial)on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) and there is no
existing local street access,the applicant has proposed a cross-access/ingress-egress easement
City of Meridian I Department Report III. Staff Analysis
and driveway, including a pedestrian walkway,to facilitate future interconnectivity with the
property to the south, in accordance with UDC 11-3A-3A.2. Staff recommends this cross-
access is moved to align with the parking curb cuts closest to Locust Grove.
Additionally,the applicant proposes a cross-access/ingress-egress easement and driveway to
the property at 50 S. Adkins Way for future connectivity. The site and landscape plans should
be revised to reflect this provision. It is important to note that there is a strip of land between
this property and 50 S.Adkins Way owned by the Stonebridge Business Owner's
Association, so future access will require obtaining consent from that owner.
2. Multiuse Pathways (UDC 11-3A-5):
There are no multi-use pathways designated on the Pathways Master Plan for this site.
3. Pathways (Comp Plan, UDC 11-3A-8):
There are no multi-use pathways designated on the Pathways Master Plan for this site.An
internal 6-foot wide pedestrian walkway is proposed along the east perimeter boundary of the
development adjacent to the existing ACHD storm drainage pond at the corner of Franklin
and Locust Grove Roads which could be reduced to 5-feet in width. Landscaping should be
provided along the internal pathway in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-12C;
the landscape plan should be revised accordingly.
4. Sidewalks (UDC 11-3A-17):
There are existing attached sidewalks along E. Franklin Rd. and S. Locust Grove Rd.
Typically,detached sidewalks are required along arterial streets;however,because these
sidewalks are still in good condition, Staff does not recommend they are removed and
reconstructed as detached sidewalks at this time.
F. Services Analysis
1. Pressurized Irrigation (UDC 11-3A-15):
Underground pressurized irrigation water is required to be provided as set forth in UDC 11-
3A-15.
2. Storm Drainage (UDC 11-3A-18):
Storm drainage is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-18. Drainage
swales should not be within the landscape setbacks along Franklin and Locust Grove Roads
as set forth in the development agreement.
3. Utilities (Comp Plan, UDC 11-3A-21):
Connection to City water and sewer services is required and are available to be extended by
the developer with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21 and Goals 3.03.03G&
3.03.03F.Urban sewer and water infrastructure and curb, gutter, and sidewalks are required
to be provided with development of the subdivision.
