7. COMMENTS MEETING
On February 23, 2007, a joint agency and departments meeting was held with service providers in this
area. The agencies and departments present included: Meridian Fire Department, Meridian Parks
Department, Meridian Public Works Department, Meridian Police Department, and the Sanitary Services
Company. Staff has included comments, conditions, and recommended actions in Exhibit B below.
8. ZONING ORDINANCE
a. Allowed Uses in Industrial Districts: UDC Table 11-2C-2 lists the permitted, accessory,
conditional, and prohibited uses in the I-L zoning district. A public/quasi-public use is listed as a
conditional use in the I-L zone. The proposed use of the property for a high school, high school
administration offices, general classrooms, and vocational technology programs qualifies as a
public/quasi-public use per UDC ll-lA-1. Unified Development Code ll-IA-1 defines
public/quasi-public uses as follows: "The use of a site for a public purpose or public facility,
including municipal, state and federal services."
b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the Industrial District is to provide for convenient
employment centers of light manufacturing, research and development, warehousing, and
distributing. In accord with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan, the I-L district is intended to
encourage the development of industrial uses that are clean, quiet and free of hazardous or
objectionable elements and that are operated, entirely, or almost entirely, within enclosed
structures. Accessibility to transportation systems is a requirement of this district.
9. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the subject property as 'Industrial'. In
Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'Industrial' areas are anticipated to provide a range of industrial
uses to support industrial and commercial activities and to develop with sufficient urban services. In light
industrial areas, uses may include warehouses, storage units, light manufacturing, and incidental retail and
offices uses.
Staff [mds that the proposed use currently does not explicitly meet the purpose and intent of the industrial
designation definition as stated within the Comprehensive Plan. However, the applicant is in the process
of requesting an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map to change the industrial
designation on the subject property to commercial (CPA-07-004). A rezone (RZ-07-004) is requested
concurrently with the CPA to change the zoning of the property from I-L to C-G. If the Future Land Use
Map designation is changed to commercial, the proposed use of the property will explicitly comply with
the purpose and intent of the amended Comprehensive Plan.
Staff believes that the proposed use of the property will be explicitly consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan, if the Future Land Use Map is amended to reflect a commercial designation for the subject
property. Further, staff believes that the proposed use will be more compatible with the existing
commercial and residential uses adjacent to this property than an industrial use would be. Staff
recommends that the Commission rely on any verbal or wriUen testimony that may be provided at the
public hearing when determining if the applicant's request is appropriate for this property.

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEP ARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF APRIL 19,2007
10. ANALYSIS
a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Reconunendation: Staff is supportive of the proposed use on
the subject property, with the following conunents:
CUP ANALYSIS
The proposed use of the subject property for a high school, high school administration offices,
general classrooms, and vocational technology programs is considered a public/quasi-public use.
Public/quasi-public uses require CUP approval in the I-L zone per UDC II-2C-2. This site was
formerly the Jabil Circuits site and was improved per City standards at that time for site and
landscape requirements. The applicant is not proposing any new construction or changes to the
site or landscaping at this time, only a change in use. Staff believes that the proposed use is an
appropriate use for this property and will more closely represent the intent of the Comprehensive
Plan if the upcoming Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment to "Commercial" & Rezone to C-G
are approved. That being said, until and if the Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone to C-
G are approvedfor this site, no additional non-industrial uses should be allowed. Staff believes
that this is the maximum amount of a public/quasi-public use that should be allowed on this
property without a rezone to a more appropriate district (e.g. - C-G or even L-O).
Access: There are currently two access points to this site provided from E. Central Drive, no new
access points are requested or approved with this application. This is a large building that will
contain multiple users. The Fire Marshall has commented that as a condition of approval for
the subject CUP, that the proposed drive aisle on the west side ofthe building be converted
to a private street for addressing purposes of future tenants in the rear and side portions of
the existing building. This requirement includes the following: submitting a Private Street
application and fees to the Planning Department; review and approval of the private street names
from the Ada County street name committee; installation of private street signs at intersections
throughout the development; and, posting the private streets as fire lanes.
Parking: The subject property currently has 1600 parking spaces on the site. The gross floor
area of the portion of the building proposed to be used by the School District is 325,500 +/-
square feet (the total building square footage is 472,500+/-). In the current I-L zone, only 163
stalls are required. In either the existing I-L or the proposed C-G zone, the existing parking on the
site exceeds that required by the zone per UDC 11-3C-6B. Staff is recommending that 64
bicycle parking spaces (1 bicycle space per every 25 vehicle parking spaces) be provided on
the site in accordance with UDC 11-3C-6G.
Landscaping: The landscape plan submitted with this application, prepared by Hununel
Architects, entitled "Jabil BuildinglDistrict Services Center," dated 8-14-06, shows the existing
landscaping on the site. The existing landscaping was approved with the Jabil Circuits
development. Staff finds that the existing landscaping sufficiently complies with UDC ii-3B,
Landscaping Requirements. No changes to the landscape plan are requested by Staff.
Hours of Operation: The applicant stated in the application that the hours of operation will be
from 6 am to 11 pm, 7 days a week. The applicant did clarify that the actual school hours would
be from 7 am to 4 pm, Monday thru Friday. The reason for the extended hours requested by the
applicant is that it is anticipated that the facility may be used occasionally for conununity
functions.
Certificate of Zoning Compliance: The purpose of a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC)
permit is to ensure that all construction, alterations and/or the establishment of a new use
complies with all of the provisions of the UDC before any work on the structure is started and/or
the use is established (UDC 11-5B-IA). To ensure that all of the conditions of approval listed in
Exhibit B are complied with, the Applicant will be required to obtain CZC approval from the
Joint School District No2 Jabil Sub - CUP-07-003
PAGE 5
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF APRIL 19,2007
Planning Department prior to conunencement of the proposed use. All required improvements
must be installed prior to occupancy.
The subject CUP approval is only for the uses proposed in this application and for the portion of
the building proposed to be used by the Joint School District No.2. All future uses in the portion
of the building labeled as "State University Classrooms" shall obtain CZC approval prior to the
conunencement of the use.
b. Staff Reconunendation: Staff recommends approval of CUP-07-003 for the Joint School
District No.2, as presented in the Staff Report for the hearing date of April 19, 2007, based
on the Findings of Fact as listed in Exhibit C and subject to the conditions of approval listed
in Exhibit B. The Meridian Plannine and Zooin!! Commission heard this item on March 15.
2007 and April 19. 2007. At the public hearine on April 19. 2007. the Commission voted to
approve the CUP reauest with the conditions listed in Exhibit B.
