STAFF ANALYSIS A. Future Land Use Map Designation{Itltps:�i'tiu�g��.rrrerlclicrrrrin.u �curslrzrr} Mixed Use Community—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 have a tendency to be larger than in 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(tip to three or four miles). Employment opportunities for those living in and around the neighborhood are encouraged. The subject site has existing City of Meridian.zoning in all directions, including across the adjacent arterials to the mirth and west. The site is directly bordered to its north and nest by arterial streets. Ustick and Linder Roads, respectively. Development q thave areas are ongoing tivitlr detached single-f tnily to the east and south in 6-eason Creek Subdivision and multiple qffice buildings hei►rg cony acted to the north across Ustick Road. An ambulance service and C- C Zoning exist to the west across Linder Road. In addition to the existing land uses around the property, the subject site contains two major watervvays and a large area ot-Jloodplain that traverse a large segment of the,southern half of the.site, the Creason Lateral and the Kellogg Drain. The Applicant is proposing to pipe the Kellogg Drain and reroute it to make more area of the site triable as well as provide open space andpathw a.vs in the.southwest cosier-Af the site and along the ive.st boundwy. The proposed land uses are attached singleiimily townhomes, multi-family residential, and commercial. These laud uses are consistent with those outlined in the MU-Cj attire land use designation d4�firrition.s and preferred uses when properli,integrated with both internal and external uses. Overall, Staff rinds the proposed site design does integrate the project and proposed uses in appropriate manners. Specijically, the,4pplicani has proposed their multi- .ja oily residential product along Ustick and the commercial buildings at the hard corner oj'the Ustick and Linder intersection }which places the most intense uses closest to the arterials. Therefore, the sirrgle;fanrily uses are proposed on the rerrxcrirrirrr area fthe site that makes tip approximately I()%of the site area. The.applicant is proposing the.single farnilt-portion of the site as all nvo-story except.1br the tar-unit toivnhomes along Linder ii,hich are proposed 3-stories. Because of the proposed transitional density and placentent r f the proposed uses,this project is generally consistent with the concept diagrams in the Citj,'s Comprehensive Plan far mixed- use designations. However,the one area of the site thatStgfffnds could provide more transition is the 4-stor37 multi"fancily building along Ustick that is also adjacent to single-family to the east. Tile existing detached single farrrily barite in Creason Creek directly adjacent to the site is a,tingle-stor_i,haute Page 6 Page 217 Item#14. with an upstairs bonus roost. Despite the separation of the side yard o{the single-family home and a proposed micro path area of?0ftet wide between the two uses, Slgfj�fincls the height disparity of'lhe existing home and the proposed 4-slot?°ini dli-frantily building is an aclegrrcrte transition.According-to the Applicant, the-multi-fcivnily units are each Avo stories and are being proposed as being stacked, which is how the 4-story concept is proposed Therefore, Slaf}'is recommending the top two (?) units directly adjacent to Creason Creek are removed so there is approximately 65 feet(includes landscaping and unit width) ofseparatdon between the existing home and the 4-story portion of the rraztlti;farrtily1. With this revision, the height of the two story multi- .fiitni117 units would he appraxirtaate6a?I feet deperzrling on lznwn the Applicurrl proposes to rooj'1he units (flat roof`or pitched roof). In addition to site design, certain densities are required to be nter for-residential projects within the AIU-C_f dure land arse designation. The proposed project as shnwww is approximately, 7.35 dulac. meeting the 6-15 dulac requirement (see comrnunin,rnetrics above). Therefore, Staff;fnds the den.sih,proposed with the wine-ration and plat is consistent with the Future Land Use A4ap designation oj'Mixed-Use Community(MU--C). NOTE: The gross density will decrease slightly with staf f s recarrtrrtertdcttion to lose two of the multi-family units. Mired--use designations also require at least three (3) types ref land uses. Ken analvzi►zgprcrjects within the MU-C future land use designation, the approved andlor developed land uses nearby, must be considered. Therefore, Staf'has taken into account adjacent land uses that can be traveled between with relative ease. The closest development to this propero,,is an qffice development that is under construction to the north. Specific uses gfthis project are not known at this time but the property is zoned C-C and does not have limitations on the allowed rues outside ofzoning. Furthermore, this project is proposed with different residential land uses us well as Nfo commercial building footprints. Staff finds the appropriate number-o('uses for a mired-use area is stet. Therefore,as noted previously and with Staffs recommended revision,Staff finds the proposed project to be generally consistent ovith the Mixed-Use Community purpose statement and concept diagram. Further and specific policy anal vsis is below. The City may require a development agreement(DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511 A.In order to ensure the site develops as proposed with this application, Staff recommends a DA as a provision of annexation with the pro included in Section VULA1. The D.4 is required to be signed lit,the propert'v owner(s)Ideveloper and returned to the City within 6 months of the Council granting the annexation for approval by City Council and subsequent recordation. A final plat will not be accepted until the DA is executed and the BIZ ordinance is approved hY City Council. B. Comprehensive Plan Policies [hops:iluwwwa.iyrerirlianc'rt�r.rwlIcornLrplurt�: The applicable Comprehensive Plan policies are cited below with Staff analysis in italics. "Avoid the concentration of any one housing type or lot size in any geographical area; provide for diverse housing types throughout the City"(2.01.01G). Lennart Pointe Community is proposing a project with a combination of land uses in the.form of'single family attached, toww�nhomes, multi- .family, and commercial within one development. A vast majority gf'the housing that exists around this development are traditional detached single-fcttnily homes. The Applicant(topes to add additional housing types in this geographic area and"Whin this MU-C area that will delineate a unique living-opportunity in the City and acid to the housing diversity available while being within.safe walking distance to fixture commercial uses. "Require all new development to create a site design compatible with surrounding uses through buffering,. screening, transitional densities, and other best site design practices"(3.07.01 A). The Page 7 Page 218 Item#14. proposed site design incorporates mews,primate streets, an extension of public streets, common open.space, and dijj ,ent land uses within the same project area. As discussed above, Stag�jinds the proposed site design is compatible with adjacent uses through transitional densily, hufferirag; and overall design. "Establish and maintain levels of service for public facilities and services,including water, sewer, police,transportation, schools, fire, and parks"(3.02.01G).A11 public utilities are available,for- ihis project site due to existing facilities abutting the site. This project also lies ivithin the Fire Department response time goal of'S minutes. Linder and U.slick Loads are curr-enth-built at their ultimate anticipated►vidths directly abutting the,site. West Ada School District of j' red comments on this project and estimates 32 additional.school aged children would be housed in this development. According to the letter received, the allocated elenzentar v and high school,for this site have capacity but the middle school is already over capacity. Staff understands that school enrollment is a major issue to be dealt with on a citt, wide scale. Due to the incorporation ofdtffer°errt housing 1ypes and a unit count on the low end sr/' the allowed density, the Applicant has minimized the project impact on area.schools. Stuff f nds that the existing and planned development of the immediale area create conditions for adequate levels ofservice to crud for this proposed project. "Preserve,protect,and provide open space for recreation,conservation,and aesthetics" (4-05.01 F). The proposed project offers open space that exceeds the mininzurn requirements in the unified development code (UDC). The Applicant has placed a large area of'open space in the sowhivest corner aj'the development where the irrigation facilities and their easements exist. In addition, there is a rnev running north-south through the center of the developntent.for°the erttcrched single-fatnily units to front on green space rather than the road neN�ork. This adds to the green space and adds a more livable component to the project. father areas oj'open space are also propased along the west boundary,that would act as a buffer from Linder as titi°ell as a proposed dog park-area to the soulheast corner of the site_In addition, all gfthe open space areas are accessible through pedestrian jcrcilities that connect throughout the entire site. Stglj" supports the proposed open space areas and anticipates thee°will provide recreation, conservation, and add to the aesthetic oj'the project. See,further analti.sis in Section V.F and 1!L. "Establish distinct,engaging identities within commercial and mixed-use centers through design standards."(2.09.03A).As discussed above, the proposed project offers a distinct set of uses and design that are curr•entl'v trot available nearhy the.site. Included in this is the incorporation gfnvo commercial buildings at the northwest corner of'lhe site with a shard pla--a,fnr ttse by the residents and future business patrons. This is ca desired aspect of mixed--use areas that helps engage the commercial buildings with the residential component of ca project. In addition, according the submitted elevations and site renderings, the Applicant is proposing distinct architecture jor the project that creates a specific identity for-this development and coaxer property. In addition to general Comprehensive Plan policies, projects in mixed-use areas should also aim to meet the mixed-use policies. Rather than list them all in this report,Staff has analyzed the project against them and finds the project to be consistent with a majority of those policies outlined in the mixed-use area of the Comprehensive Plan here. Therefore,Staff finds this development to be generally,consistent with the Comprehensive Plair and a majoriq,cr,f the mixed arse policies. Page 8 - Page 219 Item#14. C. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: The site currently houses a single-family home and other accessory buildings. All existing structures will be removed upon development of this site, The Applicant will be responsible for maintaining the existing arterial sidewalks along Ustick and Linder Roads during construction. D. Proposed Use Analysis: The Lennon Pointe Community proposes multiple residential uses and a commercial component within the same project. The commercial area is proposed at the very northwest corner of the site and shows two building pads totaling 12,000 square feet on 1.47 acres of requested C-C zoning. No tenants are currently known at this time but the submitted site plan shows the larger building closest to the hard corner with a drive-through and the smaller building along the south boundary of the C-C area adjacent to a shared plaza. Should a drive-through be proposed on this commercial lot, it will require a fixture Conditional Use Permit(CUP)because it is within 300 feet of a residential use and district. Commercial buildings require Certificate of Zoning Compliance(CZC)and Design Review so Staff will evaluate uses for compliance with code with future application submittals. The remaining area of the site(7.25 acres) is proposed with the R-15 zoning district and residential uses. The residential areas of the site are proposed with three(3)detached single- family homes(located at the very southeast corner of the site), attached single-family(2 attached units with each on their own lot),townhomes (3 or more attached units an individual lots),and multi-family residential. All of the proposed single-family uses are permitted uses within the requested R-15 zoning district. The multi-family residential use is a conditional use in R-15 zoning district per UDC Table 1.1-2A-2. No phasing plan was submitted so it can be assumed development is proposed to be constructed in one phase. Administrative Design Review is required for all of the proposed residential uses except for the three (3) detached homes proposed in the southeast corner of the site. This application was not submitted concurrently with the other applications so the Applicant will be required to subnvt this prior to obtaining building permits for any of the attached product and the multi-farnily, The Applicant has provided conceptual elevations and renderings of all residential uses and Staffs initial analysis is that the buildings comply with the Architectural Standards Manual (ASM). E. Dimensional Standards(UDC 11-2): The commercial and multi-family residential lots appear to meet all UDC dimensional standards per the submitted plat.All of the single family lets also meet the UDC minimum lot size standul d except frir the central lot in the 3-aunt townhome at the south end of the.site—this lot is shows as less than the minimum required 2,000 square feet and should be corrected with the fatal plat submittal to meet UDC standards. The 3-unit tour nhome building c ontains the three smallest building lots in the development and includes the non-conforming lot. Other than these three lots, the smallest building lot is approximately 2,800 square feet. Furthermore, it appears the site plan shox,s building fnotptints too large.far the proposed building lots--the building footprints do not ineet the nrinirrium building setback to the entrance .sideiv alks ref 1O feat. When.f oure building permits are.sichmitted, the Applicant 144l1 be required to shoiv compliance with all R-15 dimensional standards cis outlined[n VDC Table 11-2A-7. According to the submitted conceptual elevations,the proposed 4-stray multi-family buildings are 46 feet in height which is above the 40 foot height limit for the requested R-15 zoning district.Prior to submitting,for CZC and Design Revieiv. the Applicant is required to correct this to complt1 with the R-15 dimensional standards. Page q Page 220 Item#14. In addition to the building lots,the Applicant is proposing a private street through a portion of the residential area. According to the submitted plans,the Applicant is proposing this private street to be at least 26 feet wide and be within a 30-foot easement on the plat. Sidewalks are not required along private streets but the Applicant has proposed a 5-foot wide sidewalk along the proposed building rather than adjacent to the private street. Overall,the minimum UDC standards outlined in UDC I I-3F for the proposed private street are met per the submitted plans. The inclusion ofsidew alks adjacent to the townhome units on the ivest eyed af'the development adds to the pedestrian circulation of the.site despite not being required for private streets. The same can he said for all nf'the pedestrian facilities shown on the submitted site plan that provide the entrances to each unit and creates alley-loaded homes for a majority of fhe site. However. the ..detached"sidewalk on the east side of the 6-unit townhonme huilding shot{ld he moved to he located adjacent to the private street.so the sidewalk is less likely to he blocked by ears parked on the parking pad between the street and the garage door. In addition,all subdivision developments are also required to comply with Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards(UDC l 1-6C-3). The proposed prelirninmy plat and submitted plaits appear to meet the UDC requirements of this section. F. Specific Use Standards (UDC l l-4-3): The proposed multi-family development use is subject to conditional use permit approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission and subject to specific use standards outlined in UDC 11-4-3- 27 and below: 11-4-3-27—Multi-Family Development: A. Purpose: 1. To create anulti-family housing that is safe and convenient and that enhances the quality of life of its residents. 2. To create quality buildings and designs for multi-family development that enhance the visual character of the community. 3. To create building and site design in multi-family development that is sensitive to and well integrated with the surrounding neighborhood. 4. To create open space areas that contribute to the aesthetics of the community,provide an attractive setting for buildings, and provide safe, interesting outdoor spaces for residents. B. Site Design. 1. Buildings shall provide a minimum setback of ten feet (I Y)unless a greater setback is otherwise required by this title and/or title 10 of this Code. Building setbacks shall take into account windows, entrances, porches and patios, and how they impact adjacent properties. Proposed prgiect complies with this requirement according to the submitted plans. 2. All on-site service areas,outdoor storage areas,waste storage,disposal facilities,and transformer and utility vaults shall be located in an area not visible from a public street, or shall be fully screened from view from a public street. The site plan depicts screened trash enclosures that are only visihle front internal to the site; all proposed trunslornterlutilih,vaults shrill also comply x ith this requirement. 3. A minimum of eighty(80)square feet of private,usable open space shall be provided for each unit.This requirement can be satisfied through porches, patios, decks, and/or enclosed yards. Landscaping, entryway and other accessways shall not count toward this Page I0 Page 221 Item#14. requirement. In circumstances where strict adherence to such standard would create inconsistency with the purpose statements of this section, the Director may consider an alternative design proposal through the alterative compliance provisions as set forth in section 11-5B-5 of this title. Each multi fran7iiti unit is proposed eas a t»fo-stun•arnit x°itJ7 the units on levels l &2 d eringfrom those on levels 3 &4. According to a document submitted by the Applicant, the lower units provide at least 132 sguare_feet of'private open space in the_form of private patios. This document also states the units oil the upper levels provide at least 251 square feet of private open.space per unit in 1he.1brm ref' private patios. The submitted conceptual elevations show the'fourth loon patio is essential1y a roof-top deck above the third,floor. Based on the submitted elevations and data provided by the applicant,,Staff supports the proposed private common open space and finds it exceeds the required area. 4. For the purposes of this section, vehicular circulation areas,parking areas,and private usable open space shall not be considered conunon open space. These areas were not included its the cotninon open space ealeulationsfor the site. 5. No recreational vehicles,snowmobiles,boats or Other personal recreation vehicles shall be stored on the site unless provided for in a separate,designated and screened area. .4pplicant shall cotnphv with this requirement. 6. The parking shall meet the requirements set forth in chapter 3, "Regulations Applying to All Districts", of this title.See anahvsis in stgffreport helow. 7. Developments with twenty (20) units or more shall provide the following: a. A property management office. b. A maintenance storage area. c. A central mailbox location(including provisions for parcel mail) that provide safe pedestrian and/or vehicular access. d. A directory and map of the development at an entrance or convenient location for those entering the development. (Ord. 18-1773,4-24-2018) Applicant is proposing 18 units so this requirement is not applicable to this development. The site plan submitted with the Certificate of'Zoning Compliance application shall depict these items. C. Common Open Space Design Requirements: 1. A minimum area of outdoor common open space shall be provided as follows: a. One hundred fifty(150) square feet for each unit containing five hundred(500) or less square feet of I iving area. b. Two hundred fifty(250)square feet for each unit containing more than five hundred(500)square feet and up to one thousand two hundred(1,200)square feet of living area. c. Three hundred fifty(350) square feet for each unit containing more than one thousand two hundred(1,200)square feet of living area. 2. Common open space shall be not less than four hundred(400)square feet in area, and shall have a minimum length and width dimension of twenty feet(20'). Each multifilmily unit is proposed as greater than 1.200 square feet so 350 square feet of common open space per unit is needed to n7eet the spec{fie use standards. The n7axiniun7 coinn7on open space Page I I. Page 222 Item#14. required for the overall project is 44,41 S square feet with 6.300 square feel of that needed to satisfy the multi-fart►lily standards. Because the project is relati►elv small, all opera space is proposed to he.shared between the single and inulti.fctnrilt residential atzils. The open space shown on the submitted open space exhibit shows 48,824 square feet of total qualified open space but does not include all areas that are qualilying per UDC standards. However, based oil the munher ol'unitr, the inaccurate amount of open space shoran.still tweets all required open space area. HIth the pedenrian_fac ilities proposed in this project Staff finds it applicable,for all gf'the residential units to share the common open space proposed. 3. In phased developments,common open space shall be provided in each phase of the development consistent with the requirements for the size and number of dwelling units. This prgjecl is proposed to be developed in one(1)phase. 4. Unless otherwise approved through the conditional use process, common open space areas shall not be adjacent to collector or arterial streets unless separated from the street by a berm or constructed barrier at least four feet(4')in height,with breaks in the berm or barrier to allow for pedestrian access.(Ord. 09-1394,3-3-2009,eff. retroactive to 2-4- 2009). The birf f`ers along Linder and Ustick Roads are not included in the open space exhibit calculations at all.so this area 7vas not part nf'the area shoivn to satisfi,the cant►non open spate requirernent,for the tnulti ffimily units. D. Site Development Amenities: 1. All multi-family developments shall provide for quality of life,open space and recreation amenities to meet the particular needs of the residents as follows: a. Quality of life: (1) Clubl}ouse. (2) Fitness facilities. (3) Enclosed bike storage. (4) Public art such as a statue. b. Open space: (l)Open grassy area of at least fifty by one hundred feet(50 x 100') in size. (2) Community garden. (3) Ponds or water features. (4) Plaza. c. Recreation: (1) Pool. (2) Walking trails. (3)Children's play structures. (4) Sports courts. 2. The number of amenities shall depend on the size of multi-family development as follows: a. For multi-family developments with less than twenty(20) units,two (2)amenities shall be provided from two(2)separate categories. Page 12 Page 223 Item#14. b. For multifamily development between twenty(20)and seventy-five(75)units,three (3)amenities shall be provided, with one from each category. c. For multi-family development with seventy-five (75) units or more, four(4)amenities shall be provided,with at least one from each category. d. For multi-family developments with more than one hundred(100)units,the decision- making body shall require additional amenities commensurate to the size of the proposed development. 3. The decision-making body shall be authorized to consider other improvements in addition to those provided under this subsection D, provided that these improvements provide a similar level of amenity. (Ord.05-1 170, 8-30-2005,eff.9-15-2005) Eased on 18 proposed units, a minimum of No(2)amenities are required. The Applicant is proposing a shared plaza and public art front hvo categories to sathv#this requirement.. F. Landscaping Requirements: 1. Development shall meet the minimum landscaping requirements in accord with chapter 3, "Regulations Applying to All Districts", of this title. 2.All street facing elevations shall have landscaping along their foundation.The foundation landscaping shall meet the following minimum standards: a.The landscaped area shall be at least three feet(3')wide. b. For every three(3) linear feet of foundation,an evergreen shrub having a minimum mature height of twenty-four inches (24")shall be planted. c.Ground cover plants shall be planted in the remainder of the landscaped area. The landscape plans provided appear to show compliance ivith these landscape requirements and will also he verified at the time of CZC submittal(see Erlribit FILP). G. Access(UDC 11-3A-3, 11-3H-4)& Private Streets {UDC I1-3F-4): Access from the adjacent arterials(N. Linder Road and W. Ustick Road) is proposed via one 25- foot wide driveway connection to each arterial street. The driveway to Ustick Road shall be restricted to right-in/right-out,per ACHD, and passes through the multi-family portion of the project where it connects to the parking drive aisle for the multi-family units and then connects to the proposed private street. The driveway access to Linder Road is a temporary full access and is located approximately 360 feet south of the LinderlUstick intersection. ACHD has approved both of these arterial access points through analysis of driveway analyses made by the Applicant's traffic engineer. No Traffic Impact Study JIS)was required because less than 100 residential units are proposed. The other public access points to the site are proposed via extending a public local street through the site,N. Zion Park Avenue is being extended from the south property boundary and W. Pebblestone Drive is being extended from the east property boundary in the northeast corner of the site. The proposed local street is shown as 32 feet wide with 5.5-foot wide attached sidewalk within 47 feet of right-of--way. This does not meet ACHD standards so the Applicant 10/be required to revise the plat to stow the public road cgs 33 fiet wide with 5-fnat wide attached side ivalk. This revision crux be easilt°mude as the Applicant is providing the correct amount of' ri.zht-qJ-",ay. no revisions to the plat are needed to make this correction. A private street is proposed through the west portion of the site for vehicular access to some of the residential units. The proposed private street and local street are functioning as alleys for a Page I3 Page 224 Item#14. majority of the proposed residential units as the main entrance to each home is located opposite of the garage access, As discussed in section V.E above,the private street meets UDC I I-3F-4 standards by being proposed as at least 26 feet wide. As noted,the Applicant is proposing three(3)detached homes in the southeast corner of the site. These three lots take access from a common drive off of the local street extension, N.lion Park Avenue. The proposal for the number of units and access complies with code requirements. In general, and consistent with ACHD analysis and approvals,Staff supports the proposed road layout and arterial access points because the proposal oft�rs appropriate site circulation while also providing avenues to minirni,e cut-through traffic to the east and south through driveway connections to Linder and Ustick Roads. H Parking(UDC 11-30: Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table I I- 3C-6 for multi-family and single-family dwellings based oil the number of bedrootins per unit. Based oil the proposal of 18 3-bedroom apartment units, 36 parking spaces total are required to be provided—cane space per unit must be covered,per UDC standards. The submitted site plan shows 44 total parking spaces for the multi-family portion of the site. Each 2-stoly unit that enters on thefr`rst level is proposed with a hvo-cargcar•age, The 2-ston,units that eater on the third level appear utilize the sari face spaces but none cif these spaces are shown to he covered. Therefore, the submitted.site plan does not show compliance with code regatirernents. The Applicant should revise the site plan to show at least nine(9) covered spaces,for-the upper lei el units to satisfi-this requirement. Ifthis is not desired, the Applicant can provide a single-car garage spare an thef first level for each proposed unit. NOTE: Stafl'i.s recommending a loss of two omits along the east.side of the building. This recommended change would reduce the parking requirement by 4 total.spaces, two cohered and two uncovered. However, due to the overall issues with insufficient parking for multi-family projects, Stef'does not recommend a redaction in parking. The single-family portion of the site consists of 43 homes but the bedroom count of each is not known at this time. However,each home is shown with a two-car garage and a 20' x 22' parking pad that allows for a 4-bedroom home,per UDC standards.In addition, the stttunilted site plan shows 35 additional nlf street parking spaces around the private.street portion of the site meant for guest parkingfbr the single family homes. The proposed 33-foot ivide local street etlso allows on-street parking where no driveways exist. Staff supports the proposed amount of parking for the single-family portion q f the project because it exceeds UDC mininnuua requirements. The commercial area proposed in the northwest corner of the site is shown with two buildings totaling approximately 12,000 square feet requiring at least 24 parking spaces based on the nonresidential parking ratio of 1 space for every 504 square feet of commercial gross floor area. According to the saahmitted site plan, 25 parking spaces are being proposed. Each space appears to meet the minimum dimensional standards of'9'x 19'as well. Complete analysis of the proposed COMIercial area ivill take place with the first CZC application for the commercial site. Initial anal y.sis shows compliance with all UDC dimensional standards except for how the drive aisle along the north and east of the commercial site/ianc•tions. The drive aisle along the north boundary of'the site is shown as 12 feet wide which implies a one-wqj�drive aisle and it lends to the drive aisle along the east boundary of`the site that is shown as approximately 26 feet wide which implies nvo-wav Ira f c. There does not appear to be a need far the eastern drive aisle to allow two-mlay traffic ij'the north drive aisle is a one-wav Brit in this area. Page I4 Page 225 Item#14. The commercial area depicted on the site plan is conceptual in nature so future submittals and proposed itses will dictate rriore cica tcril iri the srrhnritted plans.At this point, Stajf is not recommending arry specific•revisions to the commercial area of the site f'or•the reasons noted. 1. Pathways (UDC 11-3A-8): A l 0-foot wide multi-use pathway is required along the Creason Lateral in the southwest corner of the property. This pathway is slated to connect to the existing arterial sidewalk along Linder Road and to future improvements to the south for a more complete regional pathway network. The applicant is proposing the multi-arse path wav in air appropriate location but its connection to the southern boundar-y does not appear to matchwith location of'the regional pathwav segment approved with Creason Creek No. 2 directly to the south. Upon review cif the modified landscape plans for that plat. it appears the applicant shoudd shijt the regional pathway stab to the west to be closer to the Creason Lateral. Final approval Uf the pathway connections will be verified�}) the Parks Department and our pathways coordinator.In the interim, Slaf f'is recommending the Applicant show-this shiji ref the regional pathway prior to the Council bearing to better match agiaceni approvals to the south. In addition to the proposed regional palhiva'v segment, the proposed sidewalks in this project are essentially micro-pathways that connect throughout the entire development and traverse through every open space area as well. They crier increased pedestrian connection and provide far the inclusion ofa majority allc°v loaded residential units. The proposed pedestrian facilities offer connectivity to and farm nearby subdivisions as well as safe access to all amenities and the commercial area in the northwest corner of the project. J. Sidewalks(UDC II-3A-l7): Attached sidewalks at least 5 feet wide are proposed along the proposed local street extension,in accord with the standards listed in UDC 1 1-3A-17. Other sidewalks are proposed throughout the rest of the site for added pedestrian connectivity,as discussed throughout this report. The sidewalks in this development create connections throughout the entire proiec•t including to andfrom the commercial portion of the site. The proposed large opera space area and regional pathuwav in the southwest corner of the development are also easily accessible because of'llrese sidewalks. The sidewalks along N. Linder Road and W. Ustick Road are existing; the Applicant is required to maintain andlor•repair arcy af'this sidewalk that is disturbed during construction. As stated above,Staff supports the sidewalk and pedestrian circulation element of"this project. In consideration ojpedestrian safety as well as traffic calming,for the site. Stq#'is recommending that all pedestrian crossings that cross the private.street and an drive aisle be construeled with brick pavers, stamper!concrete, or equal, as nrttline�d in UDC 11-3A-19B.4.b. K. Landscaping(UDC 11-38): A 25-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to N. Linder Road and W. Ustick Road,arterial streets,and to be landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. A 25-foot wide easement is depicted on the plat adjacent to both arterials starting at the back of the existing attached sidewalk along each arterial,meeting the UDC requirements for the minimum width. UDC II-3B-7C.2 dictates that required lrtrrrLscape 6r{ffcrs for residential subdivisions,shall he located our common lots and owned and maintained ky a homeowner's association. The Applicant's proposal to include this required bqffer-in an easement does not eompdv wish this code section. Therefore, the.4pplieant should revise the plat to shore the required arterial landscape buffers adjacent to the residential portions of the project within a common lot at least 25 feet in width. The required landscape buffer adjacent to the commercial site can remain in an easement per this code section. Page I5 Page 226 Item#14. In addition, an area of the Creason Lateral and Kellogg.Drain irrigation easements underlay a barge portion cif the landscape btrf]"er along Linder Road that is currentIv shown with trees. Staff anticipates the applicable irrigation district will not allow trees 1141hin their easements so the landscape plans should be revised to show the removal of trees from the easement career. Furthermore, code requires that ij'a required landscape buffer is encumbered by easetnents, at least 5 feet of landscaping be proposed outside of'the easement area to include the required number of trees. Because of the extensive impediment these two irrigation facilities create in this area of the site,Staff does not find it feasible to comply with this code requirement in its fullest extent as it would require half of the site to shift to the east reducing the width of the mew in the center of the development Staff finds the trees that are allowed outside of the easement area, the placement of the access point to Linder, and the separation oftile townhome units front Linder offer appropriate and adequate landscaping and buffering. However,to formalize this finding and comply with code, the Applicant should apply for Alternative Compliance with the first final plat application. Landscaping is required along all pathways (including micro-pathways) in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3E-12C. The total lineal feet of all pathways with the required and proposed number of trees is included on the first sheet of the submitted landscape plans. According to the subnzitted landscape plans, the proposed regional pathway=in the southwest corner of the site is also within the Kellogg Drain irrigation easement which generally does not allow trees and rnininral landscaping. The subtnitted landscape plans show no trees proposed within this easement. Common open space is required to be landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC H- 3G-3E.The total square footage of common open space and the required number of trees to demonstrate compliance with UDC standards is included in the Landscape Calculations table and shows compliance with code requirements. The proposed C-C zoning district requires a 25-foot landscape buffer to any residential district. According to the submitted plans, a 20-loot buffer is proposed to be shared over the cornrrrercial property boundary— 10 feet on the commercial properh,and 10 feet on the residential side. It appears the additional required 5 feet ref area can be easily acconzrnodated and will not require anti}revision to the placement cif buildings. In addition, in order to allow the corranzercial site to be ►more viable and the fact the proposed developnzent is planned together, Staff approves of the proposal to share the width of tfre 25-1oot landscape brrj`fer across the shared property line. L. Waterways(UDC ll-3A-6); As noted throughout the report,the subject site has two waterways subject to review the Kellogg Drain and the Creason Lateral. UDC 11-3A-6 dictates these waterways be piped. So, the Applicant is proposing to pipe both waterways to help with the usahle area of the.site. The Applicant is also proposing to reroute the Kellogg Drain because its easement would greatly, encumber the site if'left in its e urrerzt poesition. The Applicant is proposing to nznve it closer to the southern property]boundai.y and underneath ca segment oj'the public rind and private street: it is then proposed to move north and connect to the existing section of the drain that is piped and currentli,passes under Linder Road. Staf f'supports the proposal to pipe and vegetate these ti�ater-�var�s. In addition, a majority of the site contains floodplain which will require specific permits and building requirements. Public Works and Land Development will be the departments to handle these reviews as final platting and building permits are submitted. Page I6 Page 227 Item#14. A portion of nne of the building lots(Lot 1, Block 1) is shown on the preliminaryy plat and site plan within the,floodplain area. The building fibotprint is not so this technically conzplic�s with Cin,and floodplain standartLY, Horvever, to ensure the fitture homeowner has the easiest access to use their propert , Staffreconsnsenl.s this 6-unit townhome building he shifted to the north to get as much of the building lot out of the floodphtin as possihle. There is adequate room on the north side of`this building_fnr this to occur without anY other changes to the development. M. Qualified Open Space(UDC 11-3G): A minimum of 10%qualified open space meeting the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3B is required for the single-family portion of the site. Analysis on the open space area required and proposed for the multi-family portion of the site is above in Section V.F. Based on the proposed plat of 8.75 acres, a minimum of 0.88 acres of qualified common open space should be provided to satisfy this requirement. The Applicant has revised Ilse open space exhibit per Staffs request to depict the qualified areas and accurately note the amount of qualified open space for the project According to the revised exhibit, the Applicant is proposing 1.64 acres of qualified open space,approximately 18.7%. The majorio,of"the qualified open space consists of floe large open space area in the southwest corner of"the site, the large central resew,and haff of the required arterial street buffers. This area exceeds the ntinitnum UDC requirements. Stuff finds the proposed open space is adequate in amount and placement to satisf}?all code requirements. N. Qualified Site Amenities(UDC 11-3G): Based on the area of the proposed plat(8.75 acres),a minimum of one(1)qualified site amenity is required to be provided per the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3C. The applicant proposes two(2)qualified amenities to satisfy the requirements in this section of the UDC, a 10-foot multi-use pathway segment and a children's play structure.The proposed amenities meet the minimum UDC standards. U. Fencing(UDC 1I-3A-6, 11-3.l-7): All fencing is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC l 1-3A-7. Fencing is proposed as shown on the landscape plan and appears to meet UDC standards. P. Building Elevations (UDC 11-3,4-191 Architectural Standards Manual}: As discussed in the comprehensive plan policies analysis, Staff believes the submitted elevations meet the required Architectural Standards.The applicant has not submitted a concurrent design review application for the attached residential buildings. With the final plat application,the Applicant should also submit an Administrative Design Review(DES)application for these units. The Applicant also submitted conceptual elevations for the commercial buildings, These elevations show multiple field materials of brick, concrete wainscot, and lap siding with roof parapet variations and wall modulation--in all, the conceptual elevations appear to also meet the ASM. A separate DES will be required for the Commercial portion of the development with future CZC submittals to verify ASM compliance. V1. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the requested annexation and zoning with the requirement of a Development Agreement and approval of the requested conditional use permit and preliminary Page 17 Page 228 Item#14. plat applications per the Findings in Section IX of this staff report. The Director approved the private street application.
