We are requesting a Development Agreement Modification on this property to correct what we believe was an error in the allowable uses under the property's original development agreement, and would ask that it now include personal services to expand the variety of businesses available to serve the community in this location,as is standard for L-O zoning and supported in parts of the original agreement. We ask that the allowable uses of the property be read as; • Uses within the subdivision be limited to professional and sales offices, personal services, clinics (medical, dental, and optical), and health care or social services, or a day care center with a Conditional use Permit. Narrative: The Ledges Business Center Short Plat went through Meridian review in 2022 and was recorded in 2023. Staff noted the existing parcel received annexation and preliminary plat approval in 2006, known as Whitewater Subdivision (also known as Redfish). IN the Staff Report for SHP- 2022-0015, as part of the Meridian Planning Division Site Specific Conditions #1 of the Ledges Business Center Short Plat approval, the "Applicant shall comply with all previous conditions of approval associated with this development: AZ-05-021 (Whitewater Subdivision, f.k.a Redfish Subdivision; DA Inst. #106165912); A-2020-0203 (MBG Office Building CZC & DES)." Additionally, Site Specific Condition A.

This revision remains in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan and City of Meridian UDC requirements, as it clarifies the record of allowable uses in the subdivision under the L-O zoning. The proposed modification will not alter the previously approved public utility demands and would still require individual buildings and/or building tenants to make individual applications to operate in the Subdivision. In discussions with staff and as outlined in the Staff Report SHP-2022-0015 Ledges Business Center Short Plat, Section VII—City/Agency Comments & Conditions,A. Planning Division Site Specific Conditions, Item 6—"Lot 2, Block 1 is a non-buildable lot until such time as the existing storage building is removed, converted to an office use, OR remains as an accessory storage building to the new office building on said lot with a future CZC and DES application." The subdivision is required to comply with the identified planning conditions. This proposed DA Mod and any future building will comply with this condition. Per the condition, the existing accessory storage building will remain as an accessory storage building to any new office building on Lot 2 with future CZC and DES application. As discussed with staff, we agree that the accessory building will not be able to be leased for any 3rd party public storage use.
