Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the subject property (Staff analysis in italics below policy): ADA COUNTY HIGHWAY DISTRICT ANNEXATION - AZ-05-060 PAGE 4 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT POR TH.E HEARING DATE OF MAY 9, 2006 • Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. (Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1) When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the subject property. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands proposed to be annexed in the following manner: • Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at the developer's expense. • The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Rural Fire District. Once annexed the lands will be under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural Fire Department. • The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada County Sherds Office. Once annexed the lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD). + The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the Ada County Highway District (ACRD). This service will not change. • The subject lands are currently serviced by the Mertdian School District #2. This service will not change. • The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer nv revenue loss as a result of the subject annexation. Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by the Meridian Building Department, the Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian Wastewater Department, the Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary Services Company. • Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use developrent on adjacent parcels. (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action 1) The applicant is proposing a commercial zone adjacent to proposed or established commercial districts. Staff finds that impacts to the existing residential properties to the east can be limited through design as to be compatible with the proposed development if appropriate fencing, access points, and landscaping are installed with this project and in cooperation with the future ACRD collector road. • "Permit new. ..commercial developments only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time 'of final approval and development is contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, pg. 26, Goal I, Obj. A, #6) Municipal water, solid waste and other services exist to this area of Meridian. "Locate new community commercial areas on arterials...near residential areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining residential areas." (Chapter VII, pg. 43, Goal III, Obj. D, #3) The proposed commercial use is Xocated at the intersection of a future collector road and an arterial roadway. A 35 foot wide street buffer wild be required along Ustick Road and a 20- foot wide street buffer will be installed as a part of the western side of the collector roadway to be designed in part to mitigate potential negative impacts upon the vehicular tall c on ADA COUNTY HIGHWAY DISTRICT ANNEXATION - AZ-OS-060 PAGE 5 CITY QF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOIL THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 9, 2006 arterial roads and future vehicular impact on existing residential uses. There are several major commercial developments with associated mixed use residential developments occurring in the area to which the proposal will provide service. • "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets." (Chapter VII, pg. 107, Goal IV, Obj. D, #2} The curb cuts and access paints will be designed to be consistent with other proposals of this size and nature. However, these wild be approved with the filing of a detailed development proposal and full review by ACRD. • Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to enhance connectivity and better traffic flow. (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action b) For the future collector roadway, one access road to Ustick Road with a future connection to the south through Red feather Estates. Cross access will be required east and west of the site. Staff is generally supportive of the conceptual connectivity proposal. • Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect to local roads and collectors in adjacent developments. (Chapter VT, Goal II, Objective A, Action 13) No stub streets are currently provided to the subject site. See bullet above. Staff also finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be applicable to this application: "The capacity of arterial...roadways can be greatly diminished by excessive driveway connections to the roadways. The City should cooperate with Achd to minimize access points on arterial...roadways as development applications are reviewed." (Chapter VI, page 72) "Develop methods, such as cross-access agreements, frontage roads, to reduce the number of existing access points on to arterial streets." (Chapter VI, Goal II, Obj. A, #12, page 79). "Identify transitional zones to buffer commercial and residential uses, to allow uses such as offices and other low intensity uses." (Chapter VII, Goal I, Obj. B, #7, page 102) Staf~}`finds that the proposed C-G zoning designation is generally harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. 9. ZONING ORDINANCE a. Allowed Uses in the Cornrnercial Districts: UDC Table 11-2B-2 lists the permitted, accessory, and conditional uses in the C-G zoning district. b.
