Applicant: Mandie Brozo, CSHQA—200 Broad Street,Boise, ID 83702 B. Owner: DRB Investments, LLC— 1157 N. Summerbrook Ave., Ste. 100,Meridian, ID 83642 C. Agent/Representative: Same as Applicant IV. NOTICING Planning&Zoning Posting Date Newspaper Notification 10/1/2024 Radius notification mailed to properties within 500 feet 9/26/2024 Public hearing notice sign posted 10/25/2024 on site Nextdoor posting 9/24/2024 V. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN(HTTPS://WWW.MERIDIANCITY.ORGICOMPPLAN): Land Use: This property is designated Mixed Use Community(MU-C)on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM). The purpose of this designation is to allocate areas where community-serving uses and dwellings are seamlessly integrated into the urban fabric. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses,including residential, and to avoid mainly single-use and strip commercial-type buildings. Non-residential buildings in these areas tend to be larger than Mixed Use Neighborhood(MU-N)areas,but not as large as in Mixed Use Regional(MU-R) areas. Goods and services in these areas tend to be of the variety that people will mainly travel by car to,but also walk or bike to(up to three or four miles). Employment opportunities for those living in and around the neighborhood are encouraged. Developments are encouraged to be designed according to the conceptual MU-C plan depicted in Figure 3E. The subject property is located at the corner of E. Fairview Ave., an arterial street, and N. Webb Way, a collector street, adjacent to other commercial and residential properties. In conjunction with the residential townhomes directly to the west and across the collector street to the south, multi family apartments to the southeast, adjacent commercial uses to the north and east that Page 2 include restaurants, indoor recreation,personal services and retail stores, the proposed use contributes to the mix of uses desired in the MU-C designation and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES(https://www.meridiancity.or /g compplan): Goals,Objectives,&Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property(staff analysis in italics): • "Require all new and reconstructed parking lots to provide landscaping in internal islands and along streets."(2.01.04B) Parking lot landscaping and landscaping along streets is depicted on the proposed plans in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8C. • "Permit new development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City."(3.01.0117) City water and sewer service stubs have been provided to this site with the development of the subdivision. • "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the Area of City Impact." (3.05.01 J) The proposed drive-through restaurant will contribute to the variety of commercial uses and restaurant options within this Area of the City. • "Require pedestrian circulation plans to ensure safety and convenient access across large commercial and mixed-use developments."(3.07.02A). Sidewalks are depicted on the site plan along adjacent public streets with a pedestrian walkway from the perimeter sidewalk to the main building entrance. Additionally, there is an existing 10- foot-wide multi-use pathway along the east side off. Webb Ave., which provides pedestrian connectivity to the north and south for interconnectivity between uses. • "Minimize noise, lighting,and odor disturbances from commercial developments to residential dwellings by enforcing city code."(5.01.01F) Operation of the proposed use should comply with City ordinances pertaining to noise, lighting, and odor disturbances. VI. STAFF ANALYSIS A. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT(CUP) A CUP is requested for a drive-through establishment within 300-feet of existing residences to the west and south,and a residential(i.e. R-15)zoning district to the south, as required by UDC 11-4-3-11A. The drive-through is for a restaurant which will be located in the western-most tenant space of a new 10,1 00-square foot multi-tenant building on the southern portion of the site.No specific tenant has been identified at this time;however, it's anticipated that the drive-through will only provide pick-up service for pre-ordered items—no queueing is anticipated while products are being prepared. Note:A property boundary adjustment was previously approved that created the configuration of this property(i.e. ROS#11291 —Parcel 1), which is a legal parcel for development purposes. Therefore, this property isn't required to be included in a subdivision unless the developer wishes to divide the property in the future. Specific Use Standards(UDC 11-4-3): The proposed use is subject to the following standards: (Staffs analysis/comments in italic text) Page 3 Drive-Through Establishment: The proposed drive-through establishment is subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC I1-4-3-11,Drive-Through Establishment. All establishments providing drive-through service are required to identify the stacking lane,menu, and speaker location(if applicable), and window location on the site plan. The site plan is also required to demonstrate safe pedestrian and vehicular access and circulation on the site and between adjacent properties. At a minimum,the plan is required to demonstrate compliance with the following standards: The site plan identifies the stacking lane, menu and speaker location and window location as required. Staff recommends signage is installed before the drive-through exit onto E. Wilson St. warning drivers to watch out for pedestrians crossing the driveway. 1) Stacking lanes have sufficient capacity to prevent obstruction of driveways, drive aisles, and the public right-of-way by patrons; The proposed restaurant features a stacking late with space to queue approximately three(3) vehicles. Because only pick-up service is anticipated to be provided, this should be adequate queueing,however,Staff does have concerns it may not be if a future use allows drive-up ordering and queueing. The Commission should determine if a re-design is necessary to accommodate more stacking,or if a restriction should be placed on the use(&future uses)to not allow ordering and queueing on-site. 2) The stacking lane shall be a separate lane from the circulation lanes needed for access and parking, except stacking lanes may provide access to designated employee parking. The stacking lane is a separate lane from the circulation lanes needed for access and parking. 3) The stacking lane shall not be located within ten(10) feet of any residential district or existing residence; The stacking lane is not located within 10 feet of any residential district or existing residence.A 38 foot wide landscape buffer is provided to residential uses to the west in the area where the stacking lane is proposed to assist in mitigating the noise and fume impacts of the drive; an 11- foot wide escape lane is also proposed between the buffer and the drive-through.A 6-foot tall vinyl privacy fence is proposed along the west boundary of the site for added screening and a covered canopy is proposed in the area above the drive-through window, which should help buffer noise. 4)Any stacking lane greater than one hundred(100)feet in length shall provide for an escape lane; and The stacking lane is approximately 68 feet in length, which is below the 100 foot requirement for an escape lane; however, an escape lane is provided on the west side of the drive-through lane. 5) The site should be designed so that the drive-through is visible from a public street for surveillance purposes. The drive-through is located on the west side of the building and is fully visible from E. Wilson St., along the southern boundary of the site,for surveillance purposes. Restaurant: The proposed use is also subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC I1-4-3-49 Restaurant,which requires at a minimum, one(1) off-street parking space to be provided for every 250 square feet of gross floor area. Upon any change of use for an existing building or tenant space, a detailed parking plan is required to be submitted that identifies the available parking for the overall site that complies with the UDC requirements. Page 4 The site plan nor the application narrative states how many square feet the tenant space will be housing the proposed use;the proposed multi-tenant building is 10,100 square feet(s.f.),which would require 40 parking spaces—a total of 43 spaces are proposed on the southern portion of the site, exceeding the minimum standards. If one(1) space at 250 s.f.were required for the overall site based on the total square footage of the buildings depicted on the site plan(i.e. 17,900 s.f.),a minimum of 72 parking spaces would be required. A total of 94 spaces are proposed, including four(4)ADA spaces,which far exceeds the more restrictive minimum standard;however, it's likely the remainder of the uses in the multi-tenant building and the northern building will be non-restaurant commercial uses,which only require one(1)space per 500 s.f. of gross floor area. Therefore,the proposed parking meets and exceeds the minimum standard. Dimensional Standards (UDC 11-2): Development of the site shall comply with the dimensional standards of the C-G zoning district in UDC Table 11-2B-3. Staff has reviewed the proposed plans and building elevations and they comply with the required standards. Access(UDC 11-3A-31: The site plan depicts one(1) access drive via N. Webb Way, a collector street, at the eastern boundary of the site; local street access is not available for the site. Direct access via E. Fairview Ave. is prohibited. The escape lane for the drive-through onto E. Wilson St., a collector street,may also be used to exit the site. Staff recommends signage visible from E.Wilson St.is installed at the exit of the drive-through and the escape lane onto E.Wilson St. notifying motorists that access to the site is prohibited in that location. Parking(UDC 11-3C): Off-street vehicle parking is provided on the site in accord with and in excess of UDC standards as noted above. A minimum of one(1)bicycle parking space is required to be provided for every 25 vehicle spaces or portion thereof per UDC 11-3C-6G;bicycle parking facilities are required to comply with the location and design standards listed in UDC 11-3C-5C.A total of 10 bicycle parking spaces are proposed for the overall site with five(5) on this site,which exceeds the minimum standard by six(6) spaces overall. A detail of the bicycle rack should be submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) application that demonstrates compliance with the associated standards. Sidewalk(UDC 11-3A-1 : A 5-foot wide detached sidewalk exists on the site along N. Webb Way and E. Fairview Ave.,only a curb exists along E. Wilson St.; a 5-foot wide detached sidewalk is required to be constructed along E.Wilson St.,a collector street. Pedestrian Walkways(UDC 11-3A-19): The proposed plan includes a pedestrian walkway from the perimeter sidewalk along E. Wilson St. to the main building entrance in accord with UDC 11-3A-1913.4. There are no multi-use pathways designated on the Pathways Master Plan for this site. Staff recommends a pedestrian walkway with pavers,colored or scored concrete,or bricks is constructed across the driveway along the southern boundary of the site in alignment with the sidewalk along E.Wilson St. to delineate the walkway to make it more visible to motorists exiting the site.Note: When Pad A develops, a pedestrian walkway should be provided to the main building entrance from the perimeter sidewalk along N. Webb Way that meets the construction standards in UDC 11-3A-19B.4 and from the residential development to the west. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A 25-foot wide street buffer is required along E. Fairview Ave., an arterial street,and a 20-foot wide buffer is required along N.Webb Way and E. Wilson St., collector streets, measured from back of curb, landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. A minimum density of one(1)tree is required per 35-linear feet of frontage along streets—the width of the driveway may be subtracted from the frontage but the vision triangle and seepage bed/storm drainage areas should be included. Trees should be spaced in accord with the standards in UDC 11- 3B-7C.4.Where the street buffers are encumbered by easements that prohibit trees,the buffer area is required to include a minimum five-foot wide area for planting shrubs and trees outside of the easement as set forth in UDC 11-3B-7C.1b.The Project Information Landscape Requirements on the Page 5 landscape plan should be revised to reflect 13 trees required within the street buffer along N.Webb Way, a collector street,and a minimum of nine(9)trees within the street buffer along E.Wilson St., a collector street; and a 20-foot wide street buffer required along E.Wilson St.,a collector street.A revised landscape plan should be submitted that includes the additional trees and these revisions. A minimum 25-foot wide buffer is required along the west boundary of the site adjacent to existing residential uses per UDC Table 11-213-3, landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-313-9C. The Applicant requests approval of a reduced buffer width along the northern portion of the west boundary of the site ranging from 5 to 10-feet adjacent to parking and the rear of the building on Pad A(a 38-foot wide buffer is proposed directly adjacent to the drive-through on the southern portion of the west boundary). Staff recommends the 5-foot buffer adjacent to parking is widened to 7-feet and the length of the abutting parking spaces are reduced to 17-feet,which allows 2-feet of vehicle overhang(and increases the width of the buffer)in accord with UDC 11-3C-5B.4.A reduced building setback of 15-feet is also requested for the northern building based on the reduced buffer width. The UDC allows City Council to modify the buffer width at a public hearing with notice to surrounding property owners if determined appropriate; a reduction in the buffer width does not affect building setbacks—all structures are required to be set back from the property line a minimum of the buffer width required in the district(i.e. 25%per UDC 11-3B-9C.2.Note: Staff is in the process ofproposing an amendment to the UDC, which would allow buildings to encroach in the buffer area if consent from the abutting property owner is obtained and if Council grants a reduction to the buffer width. In the interim of a code change, the Director has determined a building can encroach within the required buffer area IF Council grants a reduction to the buffer width AND a reduced setback AND consent from the adjacent property owner is obtained for the buffer and building setback to be reduced. The Applicant should pursue obtaining consent from the abutting property owner for a reduced building setback based on the reduced buffer width for consideration by Council with the request for a reduced buffer. A letter from the owner of the abutting residential property was submitted, included in Section VIII.D below, in support of the reduced buffer width; approval of the reduced building setback is still needed.Because the Planning&Zoning Commission is the decision-making body on CUP applications,the Applicant will need to submit an application for City Council review of the Commission's decision in order for Council to review the request for a reduced buffer and building setback at a public hearing, as required by UDC 11-3B-9C.2. Interior parking lot landscaping is required in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8C. Outdoor Lighting(UDC 11-3A-11): All outdoor lighting is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-11C. Light fixtures that have a maximum output of 1,800 lumens or more are required to have an opaque top to prevent up-lighting; the bulb shall not be visible and shall have a full cutoff shield in accord with Figure 1 in UDC 11-3A-1IC.Staff recommends that the Applicant provide details of the lighting that demonstrate compliance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-11 with the CZC application. Outdoor Service and Equipment Areas(UDC 11-3A-12): Outdoor mechanical equipment(including, but not limited to,heaters and fans) shall not be located within fifty(50)feet of any abutting residential districts.Although the abutting residential property to the west is not in a residential district, Staff recommends this requirement is extended to it as a condition of the subject CUP. To reduce noise,permanently mounted mechanical equipment shall be enclosed to the maximum extent possible. Outdoor utility meters,HVAC 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. Safe access and adequate lighting should be provided in these areas. Page 6 Trash Enclosure: Two(2)trash enclosures are depicted on the plan to service the overall property—one(1) on Pad A and one(1)on Pad B. The orientation of the enclosure on Pad A does not meet Republic Services requirements for access and will need to be revised or relocated; the Applicant should work with Republic Services on an alternate acceptable design.Recycling receptacles should be provided in the trash enclosures. Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed single-story structure as shown in Section VII.C. Building materials consist of wood(rough sawn douglas fir),brick, concrete, stone, longboard siding, stucco and glazing with standing seam metal roofing. Final design is required to comply with the Architectural Standards Manual for Commercial Design Guidelines.A design review application is required to be submitted concurrent with the CZC application. Certificate of Zoning Compliance(UDC 11-5B-1): A Certificate of Zoning Compliance(CZC)is required to be submitted for approval of the site and building design prior to submittal of building permit applications. VII. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit per the provisions included in Section IX in accord with the Findings in Section X. Page 7 VIII. EXHIBITS A.
