Zoning Amendment Findings
According to Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to
Zoning Amendments, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and Council are required
"to review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in
tenus of the following standards and shall fmd adequate evidence answering the
following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by City Council:
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and~ if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
All 29 acres of the subject property are designated for medium density residential
use on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The purpose of this
designation is "to allow smaller lots for residential purposes within city limits.
Uses may include single-family homes at densities ofthree to eight dwelling units
per acre." (page 93, Chapter VII, City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan).
The applicant is requesting three different zoning designations for four different
land uses on the subject property. The R-4 zone (Low Density) is requested for
the 17-acre school site. The City Council is supportive of this proposed R-4
zoninp: designation as schools are principally permitted in the requested zone and
this zone is consistent with the Future Land Use Map.
The R-8 zone (Medium Density) is requested for the five, one-acre single-family
lots in Westborough Subdivision, While this designation is consistent with the
Future Land Use Map, it is not consistent with the existing land use. The R-8
zone is geared towards developments containing between four and eight dwelling
units per acre and the subject density is approximately one dwelling unit per acre.
The City Council finds that the City should zone this property to R-4 R-2, as the
&-4 R-2 zone would more accurately correspond to the use of the land as one-acre
residential lots.
The R-15 zone (Medium High Density) is requested for the six office lots and one
multi-family lot (6.62 acres total). The Comprehensive Plan does allow a one step
increase or decrease in residential areas without amending the Comprehensive
Plan. The R-15 district allows for medium-high density single-family attached
and multi-family dwellings at densities not exceeding 15 dwelling units per acre
(MCC 11-7-2.E). In addition to the multi.family, the applicant is requesting CUP
approval to construct office buildings within the proposed residential zone (see
CUP-05-027). The applicant states in the submittal letter that the neighborhood
center shown between Locust Grove Road and Meridian Road should "floaf' to
the east because there is not a collector roadway intersecting Chinden at the %
mile and the existing uses do not lend themselves to the neighborhood center
concept (see Applicant's letter). The applicant is also being taxed by the County
as if this property had commercial potential. Therefore, a more intense use than
medium density residential is appropriate here,
Although there is not currently a public street south of Chinden near the Y2 mile
there is a public street on the north side of Chinden Boulevard in Spyglass
Subdivision. This public street is located at approximately the ~ mile. 'When the
properties to the south of Spyglass Subdivision develop/redevelop, the City
Council believes that a public collector road could be constructed at the Y2 mile
(and possibly signalized when warrants are met). However, several developments
will utilize Jericho Road and the City Council believes this road will function
similar to a collector road for this area, thus making the subject site part of the
envisioned neighborhood center. Further, this property has frontage on a highway,
which makes a higher intensity use for this property agreeable.
The City Council also recognizes that the location of the neighborhood center
designation on the Future Land Use Map is conceptual. Neighborhood Centers are
anticipated to have: short blocks, less than 300 feet; interconnected circulation
that is convenient for automobiles, pedestrians, and transit; a variety of housing
choices; housing that is arranged in a radiating pattern of lessening densities;
transition between different housing types or densities at alleys; gridded street
patterns; and, public open space. Further, the purpose of a neighborhood center is
to create a centralized, pedestrian oriented, identifiable and day~to-day service
oriented focal point for the neighborhood. The center should offer an internal
circulation system that connects with adjacent neighborhoods or regional
pathways, and they are anticipated to serve as public transit locations for park and
ride lots, bus stops) and other alternative modes of transportation (see Pages 95-
97, Chapter VII ofthe City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan).
The project does have some internal sidewalks and does propose one sidewalk to
the adjacent school site to the south. Except for the sidewalk along the entry
driveway~ no other pedestrian connectivity is proposed between the multi-family
dwellings and the office portion of the development. The lack of accessibility
from the residential portion of the development to the proposed patio/plaza
amenity in the office portion of the development (on the corner of Chinden and
Jericho) turns what couId have been an active amenity into a passive one that few
would use. In addition to the amenity not being accessible to the residences within
the project, this amenity has not been offered for use by the public either. Even if
the patio in the office portion of the development counts as one amenity, this
project is lacking a second amenity as defined by MCC. See SpeciaL
Consideration #2 in the Conditional Use Permit section of this report.
While the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map does not explicitly support
a commercial zoning of this property, the City Council finds that there are several
Comprehensive Plan policies that support evaluating this site for a zone not
specifically envisioned by the Map (see below).
"The Meridian Comprehensive Plan is an official policy guide for
decisions concerning the physical development of the community. It
indicates, in a general way, how the community may develop in the next
five to ten years." (Chapter I, Section B ofthe Comprehensive Plan)
Furthermore, in Chapter VII, Section C, "Future Conditions" states the following;
"Figure VII-2 [The Comprehensive Land Use Map] depicts desired future
land use categories and their location within the Impact Area. TIle areas
depicted on the map are conceptual and, therefore, will require further
analysis prior to the creation of a zoning map."
Because the Comprehensive Plan is a guide when detennining land uses, the City
Council believes that this is an instance to "float" the neighborhood center to this
site. There are five large one-acre lots to the south) a school to the southeast, a
church directly to the east, and the properties to the west have yet to develop. If
the non-residential aspect of the neighborhood center is moved away from the ~
mile, no significant negative impacts are envisioned for the adjacent properties in
the mile between Locust Grove Road and Meridian Road. At the public hearing,
some of the I-acre property owners to the south testified that they would not be
agreeable to R-15 zoning/multi-family uses directly to their north.
The City Council believes that a step UP in zoning density to R-15 for multi-
family uses on the east side of this property is lustified. The City Council also
believes that non-residential uses (office) in an area planned for residential uses,
is appropriate in this instance (as a use exception for the development). To more
accurately correlate the use of the land to the zoning of the land. the City Council
believes that the City should zone the office/western portion oftms property to L~
O. The City Council further finds that the R-15 and L-O zone and concurrent
development applications generally comply with a majority of the policies, goals,
objectives, and concepts contained within the Comprehensive Plan.
The Commission also finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies
to be applicable to this application (analysis is in italics below policy);
. HRequire that development projects have planned for the provision of all
public services;l (Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action items 1 and 4)
On May 13,2005, ajoint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. In that meeting no
deficiencies of public services to serve this property were raised.
· "Consider "Accommodating Bicycle and Pedestrian Travel: A Reconunended
Approach" from the National Center for Bicycling and Walking in all land use
decisions. II (Chapter VI, Goal II, Obj. A, #3)
This publication encourages jurisdictions to establish bikeway and walkvvay
facilities in new construction and reconstruction projects, in a manner that is
safe, accessible and convenient.
· "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets."
(Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action item 2)
The applicant is only proposing one access point into the development from
Jericho Road, a local street. No access to ChindenBoulevard (SH 20-26) is
proposed. The City Council is supportive of the proposed access to the
property.
" \'Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors
(setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.):' (Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective
D, Action item 4)
The applicant is proposing to construct a 35-jOot wide landscape berm along
Chinden Boulevard and a 20-foot wide landscape berm along Jericho Road.
The City Council is supportive of these widths (see Preliminary Plat
conditions for further details).
· "Require new residential development to meet development standards
regarding landscaping, signage, fences and walls, etc.ll (Chapter VIII Goal I,
Objective C, Action item 4)
The applicant has not depicted appropriate landscape buffers between the
multi-family dwellings and the school site to the south (20-ftet required),
between the multi-family dwellings and the church to the east (20-feet
required), or between the proposed office and the multi-family dwellings (20-
feet required).
· "Require useable open space to be incorporated into new residential
subdivision plats." (Chapter VIII Goal IV, Objective C, Action item 3)
Open space may be active or passive in its intended use, and must be
accessible by all residents of the subdivision (MCC 12-1316-3). The applicant
does state that 37% of the multi-familyloffice area (approximately 2 acres) is
planned for landscaping. The applicant should provide useable open space in
accordance with Meridian City Code.
e "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions
together and promote neighborhood connectivity." (Chapter VII, Goal IV,
Objective C, Action item 6)
The applicant is proposing a sidewalk connection to the south; no connection
to the east is proposed.
. "Locate new community commercial areas on arterials or collectors near
residential areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining residential
areas.H (Chapter VII, Goal I, Obj. B, #5)
The subject property has frontage on Chinden Boulevard, an arterial
roadway. The City Council believes that the proposed commercial office
complements the adjoining residential area.
. "Locate highwdensity development, where possible, near open space corridors
or other permanent major open space and park facilities, Old Town, and near
major access thoroughfares," (Chapter VII, Goal V, Objective A, Action item
14)
There are currently no permanent major open space or park facilities near
this site, There is a charter school and associated open spaces with the school
use, This higher-density development is located adjacent to Chinden
Boulevard, a major thoroughfare,
. "Actively involve Joint School District No, 2 in subdivision site selection with
developer before plat processing (pre-platting schedule meetings)," (Chapter
VI, Goal VI, Objective B, Action item 1)
A 17-acre school site is included within the subject annexation application.
. "Consider development applications that apply the neighborhood center
concepe' (Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective B, Action item 1)
The subject applications generally apply the neighborhood center concept
outlined on pages 95 .97 of the Comprehensive Plan.
The applicant has listed some Comprehensive Plan policies that support the
annexation and proposed use of the property (see Applicant's letter dated
February 15,2005).
For the reasons listed above, the City Council finds that annexinz. and zoning] as
well as the desif!n of the proposed plat and conditional use permit. are in general
conformance with the Citv of Meridian Comprehensive Plan.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
If the concurrent preliminary plat and conditional use pelmit applications are
approved, the City Council does not believe that the applicant intends to rezone
the property in the future.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
The five existing single-family homes in Westborough Subdivision are allowed in
both the requested R-8 zone and R-4 zone without a CUP. The 17-acre school site
is allowed in the requested R-4 zone without a CUP. The City Council recognizes
that approximately 6 acres of the area included in the proposed zoning
amendment is intended to be developed in a fashion not allowed (principally
permitted) under the proposed zoning. Both the proposed office uses and multi-
family uses require conditional use permits in the requested R-15 zone (medium
high density). However, if the western portion of the 6 acres is zoned L-O, the
office area could be developed in a fashion allowed (principally pennitted) under
the new zoning. The City does not currently have a zone that principally pennits
apartments. Therefore, the eastem portion of the site, proposed for multi-family,
requires conditional use permit approval.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
There have been no recent street improvements in the area. Chinden Boulevard is
not in the current STlP and Locust Grove Road is not currently scheduled within
ACHD's Five Year Work Program or Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) for
roadway widening.
Pennanent sanitary sewer to this proposed development shall be provided via the
North Slough Trunk, which is currently under construction, however laterals that
will provide service will be through future phases of the Saguaro Canyon
Subdivision,
The City Council finds that a substantial portion of the land to the south has been
developed, or approved for development. However, the City has not approved any
multi-family and/or office uses in this area. Arcadia Subdivision, Tustin
Subdivision and Saguaro Canyon Subdivision, all contained single-family
dwelling units. The City Council believes that the proposed development will be
compatible with and is similar to the adjacent area.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
The City Council believes that this development will set the tone for how the rest
of the area along Chinden develops, The applicant has submitted elevations for
the proposed office and multi-family dwellings. The City Council is supportive of
the elevations for the multi-family and office buildings as they should be
harmonious with the existing and intended character of the area. The existing
character of the area will, and is, currently changing. However, the City Council
fmds that if this site is developed as proposed, the zoning and subsequent uses
will be harmonious and appropriate to the intended character of the vicinity (see
Finding "An).
F. Will the proposed uses not he hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Due to other existing and proposed uses near the site, the City Council does not
anticipate that the zoning and proposed uses will be physically hazardous to future
or existing uses or neighbors in the area. The Council should rely on the analysis,
comments from other agencies, and public testimony to detennine whether the
proposed use will be disturbing or hazardous to the existing neighboring uses and
future expected uses in this vicinity.
G. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services
such as highways, streets, police and fIre protection, drainage structures,
refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible fol" the
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Sewer service for this development is being proposed via the existing "private lift
station" constructed for the five previously approved lots to the south. When
public works reviewed and accepted the plans for this lift station, Public Works
staffwas approving it for only the five lots that were proposed at the time,
Arcadia to the west, and the five-acre commercial property to the north.
Engineeting staff has reservations on the ability of this lift-station to service the
extra volume of sewage generated by the four-plexes that are now a part of this
development. In preliminary discussions the applicant and a staff engineer at the
City of Meridian have come to an agreement that the commercial portion of this
proposed development could be allowed with the stipulation that a flow meter be
installed to measure the true amount of sewage being "lifted>>. This would give
accurate information on influent flows to allow for a more informed opinion on
the sewerabilty of the remainder of the project.
Water mains are readily accessible to this site and service is being proposed via an
extension ofwatel' mains located in Jericho and Locust Grove. The applicant will
be required to construct water mains to and through this proposed development.
Coordinate size and routing with Public Works.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay park and
highway impact fees as well as construct on-site stann water drainage facilities.
This item was approved at the stafflevel at ACHD on May 10, 2005. The
applicant is being required to construct Jericho Road as one half of a 40 foot street
section, Please review any additional comments that may be sent from ACHD
between the print deadline and the hearing.
On May 13, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. Several comments were
received from multiple departments, The detailed comments and conditions from
the Fire Department, Police Department, and other agencies/departments are at
the end of this report, Based on the comments received from other
agellcies/departmentsl the City Council finds that the public services listed above
can be made available to accommodate the proposed development.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, public
street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents and tenants will be fire, police,
school facilities and services. The City Council finds there will not be excessive
additional requirements at public cost and this development will not be
detrimental to the economic welfare of the community.
I. Will the proposed uses not involve uses, activities, process eSt materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of
traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
The most recent traffic count for Chinden Boulevard, taken on January 30,2003,
was 15,301 ADT, west of Meridian Road. ACHD estimates that this development
will generate 529 additional vehicle trips per day. The City Council recognizes
that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of a development on this site;
however, the Council does not believe that the amount generated will be
detrimental to the general welfare of the public.
The purpose of the L-O zone is to "permit the establishment of groupings of
professional, research, executive, administrative, accounting, clerical,
stenographic, public service and similar uses.. . shall not involve heavy testing
operations of any kind or product manufacturing of such a nature to create noise~
vibration or emissions of a nature offensive to the overall purpose of this
District." (MCCll-7-2.G) The purpose of the R-15 zone is to permit the
establislnnent of medium-high density single-family attached and multi-family
dwellings at a density not exceeding 15 dwelling units per acre. The City Council
does not anticipate that almexation and development in accordance with current
city code and the Comprehensive Plan will create excessive noise~ smoke, fumes~
glare, or odors.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shan be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
The applicant is proposing to construct one entrance into the site from Jericho
Road. The proposed entrance is located approximately 285 feet south of Chinden
Boulevard, and meets ACHD's requirements for location. lfthe proposed access
and internal driveways are approved and constructed in accordance with ACHD
and the City's policies, the City Council does not believe that the development
will create interference with traffic on the surrounding public streets.
K Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
The City Council finds that the proposed annexation and zoning should not result
in the loss or damage of any natural or scenic features~ as long as any existing
trees are protected/mitigated. Any existing trees that the City Arborist deems
necessary for mitigation that are removed shall be mitigated for, per the
Landscape Ordinance (MCC 12-13-13). The City Council is not aware of any
natural or scenic feature(s) that would be lost, damaged or destroyed by allowing
this site to be annexed, zoned and developed.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)?
In accordance with the findings listed above. the City Council finds that the
annexation/zoning of this prolJerty as proposed would not be in the best interest
of the City. However. the City Council finds that the City should annex and zone
the 17,02 acres to R-4 as requested: that the 5.53 acres proposed far R-8 zoning
that contain sin,?le-familv homes an one-acre lots also, be zoned to R:-4 R-2: and,
that the 6.62 acres proposed for'R-i5 zoning be zoned to zoned L-Q for the
western portion containing office uses and R-15 for the eastern portion
cantaininf[ multi-family dwellings. Consistent with the Comorehensive Plan and
the findings listed apove. the City Council believes that the above-listed zones are
appropriate far this prooerty and zoning the TJrooerties as amended would be in
the best interest afthe City.
