Rackham Way 1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT'S 13.EQUEST The Applicant, Relo Development, has requested Annexation and Zoning (AZ) approval of 9.06 acres from the RUT and Rl (Ada County) zoning districts to the C-G (General Retail & Scrvicc Commercial District) zoning district. Concurrently, the applicant is requesting to vacate the existing right-of--way of S. Rackham Way. The subject property is located on the northeast earner of E. Overland Road and S. Eagle Road, in the southwest'/ of Section 16, Township 3 North, Range 1 East, B.M. The subject property is within the City's Area of Impact and Urban Service Planning Area. Approval of the subject AZ application would allow the applicant to obtain a commercial zone and develop the property with retail, office and restaurant uses in the future. The Applicant has not submitted a subdivision application at this time but intends do so at a later date. However, the Applicant has subnutted a concept plan for how the subject properly may devclup, and elevations for what the future buildings will look like. Staff has reviewed both the concept plan and the elevations and has included Development Agreement provisions in the staff report related to the submitted applications (AZ and VAC). Approval of the subject VAC application to vacate the existing S. Rackham Way right-of--way would allow the applicant to do a land swap with ACHD and to reconstruct Rackharn Way to Overland Road further to the east. 2. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION The subject AZ & VAC applications were submitted to the Planning Department for concurrent review. Per UDC 11-SA-2, the Planning & Zoning Commission is required to make a recommendation to the Council on AZ applications; the Commission is not required to make a recommendation on VAC applications. Flowever, the Commission may review and make comments on the VAC application, as this application is significant to the proposed development of this property. Any comments related to the subject applications (AZ-08-001 & VAC-08-001) will be included in the Commission's recommendation to the Council. Staff is recommending approval of the Overland Village application (AZ-OS-001 & VAC-OS-001) with a Development Agreement for the project.

Overland Village AZ-08-001 & VAC-08-001 Page 3 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 4. Canals/Ditches/Irrigation: The Five Mile Creek runs along the north boundary and the Eight Mile Creek runs along the east and north boundaries of this property. A goal of the Comprehensive Flan is for these creeks be protected and improved throughout commercial areas. 5. Hazards: Planning Staff is not aware of any potential hazards on this site. 6. Proposed Zoning: C-G 7. Size of Froperty: 9.06 acres (annexation area) f. Summary of Proposed Streets and/or Access: Although no development is proposed at this time, the conceptual development plan submitted with this application shows axxe right-in only driveway access from E. Overland Road, classified as a principal arterial roadway, approximately 262 feet east of the Overland/Eagle intersection where the existing Rackham Way is located. A full-access street is proposed to/from Overland Road approximately 498 feet east of the Overland/Eagle intersection where Rackham Way is proposcd to be rclocatcd. No access is proposed or approved to/from Eagle Road. ACHD Staff is supportive of the right-in access to/from the site from Overland closest to the Overland/Eagle intersection and the relocation of Rackham Way as afull-access street to the site further to the east as proposed (See staff's analysis of proposed streets and access points to the site in Section 10 below.) g. Landscaping: 1. Width of street buffer(s): Per City Code (UDC Table 11-2B-3), a 35-foot wide landscape street buffer is required adjacent to E. Overland Road and S. Eagle Road, both classified arterial streets and entryway corridors. A 10-foot wide landscape street buffer is required adjacent to S. Rackham Way, a local street. 2. Width of buffer(s) between land uses: Per City Code (UDC Table 11-2B-3) a 25-foot wide landscape buffer is required between C-G zoned properties and residential uses. However, there are no residential uses that directly abut the site. 7. COMMENTS MEETING On February 1, 2008, Planning Staff held an agency comments meeting. The agencies and departments present included: Meridian Fire Department, Meridian Police Department, Meridian Parks Department, Meridian Public Works Department, and the Sanitary Services Company. Staff has included all comments and recommended actions in the attached Exhibit B. However, because this request is only for annexation, comments are for informational purposes only, $. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land LTse Map designates the subject property as "Mixed iJse - Regional (MU-R)." Per Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, the Mixed Use land use category contains five sub-categories. "Generally, the mixed-use designation will provide far a combination of compatible land uses that are typically developed under a master or conceptual site plan. The purpose of this designation is to identify key areas which are either infill in nature or situated in highly visible or transitioning areas of the city where innovative and flexible design opportunities are encouraged. The intent of this designation is to offer the developer a greater degree. of design and use flexibility." The MU-R category allows far residential densities of 3 to 40 units per acre. This category includes uses such as grocery stores, drug stores, coffee/sandwich shops, dry cleaner/Laundromat, professional offices, retail/gift shops, clothing stores, garden centers, restaurants, banks, drive-thru facilities, auto service stations, department stores, medical/dental clinics, schools, parks, churches, public uses, clubhouses, hardware stores, salons, daycares, entertainment uses, major employment centers, and clean industry. Overland Village AZ-08-001 & VAC-OS-QOl Page 4 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 Per the Comprehensive Plan, a mixed use project shall include a principal use (retail, office, professional, or residential) and at least one other type of land use. Exceptions may be granted from smaller sites on a case by case basis. This site is only proposing one type of use (retail/restaurant). Because of the size of the site and it's proximity to a very busy intersection, staff does not believe that an additional type of use should be required in this case and that the proposed use of the property is the most appropriate. The applicant is proposing a commercial zone (C-G), which complies with the MU-R land use designation and has submitted a conceptual site plan. Staff fmds that the future commercial use of the property for retail and restaurant type uses generally conforms to the stated purpose, intent, and standards of the MU-R land use category within the Comprehensive Plan. Staff fmds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the proposed use (staff analysis in italics): • Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective D, Action 2 - "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets." Both Eagle Road and Overland Road are designated principal arterials. On the submitted conceptual site plan, the Applicant is proposing one right-in access point to the site from Overland Road and one full-access point to Overland Road where Rackham Wuy is proposed to be relocated further to the east. ACHD has approved the location of the two proposed access points. Na access is proposed or approved to Eagle Road. • Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective D, Action 4 - "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.)." Overland Road and Eagle Raad are both classified as arterial streets crud are designated as entryway corridors to the City. By City Ordinance, a 35 foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to Overland Road and Eagle Road. A 10 foot wide buffer is required adjacent to S. Rackham Way, a locul street. • Chapter V, Goal III, Objective D, Action S - "Require all commercial businesses to install and maintain landscaping." The Applicant is not specifically proposing to install any landscaping with the subject annexation application as na development is proposed at this time. Upon development of this site, the Applicant will be required to construct internal and perimeter landscaping. Said landscaping must be installed prior to Certificate of Occupancy of buildings proposed on tlzis site. Chapter IV, Goal I, Objective A, Action - "Peruut new.., conunercial development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City." This property is contiguous to the Ciry and sanitary sewer and water are readily available. • Chapter VII, Gaal 1, Objective B - "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the Impact Area." Staff believes that the proposed zone, which allows for a variety of commercial and retail uses, does contribute to the variety of uses in this area which include: offices, restaurants, retail stores, coffee .chaps, etc. Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action 11 - "Improve and protect creeks (Five Mile, Eight Mile, Nine Mile, Ten Mile, South Slough, and Jackson and Evans drainages) throughout commercial, industrial and residential areas." The Five Mzle Creek runs along the north boundary and the Eight Mile Creek runs along the east and north boundaries of this property. Staff is including a provision in the Development Overland Village A~-08-001 & VAC-08-001 Page 5 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 Agreement that the applicant protect these creeks as part of the development of this site. Staff would encourage the applicant to improve the area adjacent to the creeks as a development amenity. Staff finds that the proposed zoning to C-G is harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends that the Commission and Cnnncil rely on Staff's analysis, other agency/department comments, and any other comments received regarding the appropriateness of zoning this site for retail and restaurant uses. 9. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE Allowed Uses in the Commercial Districts: UDC Table 11-2B-2 lists the permitted, accessory, and conditional uses in the C-G zoning district. Retail stores and restaurants, among other uses, are listed as principal permitted uses in the C-G zone. b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the Commercial Districts is to provide for the retail and service needs of the community in accord with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Four Districts are designated which differ in the size and scale of commercial structures accommodated in the district, the scale and mix of allowed commercial uses, and the location of the district in proximity to streets and highways. 10. ANALYSIS a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: 1. AZ Application: The applicant is requesting annexation and zoning of 9.06 acres from RUT & Rl in Ada County to C-G. Approval of the AZ application would allow the Applicant to obtain a commercial (C-G) zoning designation for the subject property and develop the property with retail and restaurant uses in the future. According to current City Code, retail stores and restaurants, among other uses, are principal permitted uses in the proposed C-G zone. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designation for this property is Mixed Use - Regional. The applicant is proposing a commercial zone (C-G), which complies with the land use designation for this property. Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan and the general compliance of the proposed concept plan and uses with the UDC for the C-G zone, Staff believes that the zoning of this site to C-G is in the best interest of the City. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of facts and findings. The annexation legal description submitted with the application (stamped 12/20/07, by Jeffrey McAllister, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. Conceptual Site Plan: The applicant has submitted a conceptual development plan for this site (prepared by Robert Kubicek, dated 4/1.8/08, included in Exhibit A) showing how this site will redevelop with one 10,000 square foot multi-tenant building (depicted as "Shops A"), nne 14,820 square foot building (depicted as "Major A"), and nne 4,000 square foot building (depicted as "Pad C"). A drive-thru window is depicted on each of the buildings; drives thru facilities within 300 feet of each other require separate CUP approval. Parking and access points to the site are also depicted. An existing ACRD park and ride lot is also shown at the northern boundary of the site that is proposed to remain. Staff is generally supportive of the submitted conceptual site plan for this property with the comments stated below. A11 parking stalls, drive aisles, landscaping, street buffers, sidewalks, lighting, signage, building height and building setbacks for this site should comply with the applicable provisions and dimensional standards set forth in the Unified Development Cade for the C-G zone and Design Review criteria listed in UDC 11-3A-19C. Note: The revised site plan shown in Overland Village AZ-OS-001 & VAC-OS-001 Page 6 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 Exhibit A incorrectly depicts a label far uright-in only to the site from Eagle Raad and a future signalized intersection in the proposed location of the Rackham/Overland intersection. These ftems are not approved wfth this application. Design Standards: Because this site is located adjacent to Eagle and Overland Roads, both entryway corridors, the site and future buildings on the site are required to comply with the design standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19C. An application for Design Review approval shall be submitted with future CUP and/or CZC applications for all buildings on this site. Building Elevations: Conceptual building elevations were submitted with this application (prepared by Robert Kubicek, dated 1/15/08, included in Exhibit A) showing how future buildings on the site maybe constructed. As stated above, all future buildings are required to comply with the design standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19. Staff has performed a cursory review of the elevations and find they appear to meet the current design review standards. A detailed review of buildings on this site for compliance with all of the design review standards will occur with future CUP and/or CZC applications for buildings on this site. NOTE.• Tthe applicant will be required to comply with the design review standards in affect at the time of CUP and/or CZC submittal. The detailed site plan and building elevations submitted with any CUP and/or CZC/DR application for this site shall substantially comply with the conceptual site plan and building elevations submitted to the City as shown in Exhibit A of this staff report, and with the requirements of the subject Development Agreement, and the design review requirements of the UDC. Drive-thru Establishments: The concept plan depicts 3 drive-thru windows on this site; one on each of the proposed buildings. Per UDC 11-4-3-11, drive-thru establishments require CUP approval if they are located within 300 feet of an existing residence or residential district or another drive-thru facility. There are also several specific use standards for drive- thru windows that are listed in UDC 11-4-3-11 that the applicant must comply with. The Police Department (see Exhibit B) requests that any and all drive through windows proposed on the site be approved by the Police Department. Because the most efficient way for the PD to review and submit comments on a drive-thru is through the CUP process, Staff is including a provision in the DA that ALL drive-thru windows on the site be approved through the CUP process. Access: Although no development is proposed at this time, the conceptual development plan submitted with this application shows a 20-foot wide right-in driveway access to the site from E. Overland Road, classified as a principal arterial roadway, approximately 262 feet east of the Overland/Eagle intersection. Afull-access public street is proposed to Overland Road approximately 49$ feet east of the Ovcrland/Eaglc intersection where Rackham Way is proposed to be relocated. A stub street is shown to the property to the east (awned by Ustick Marketplace) across the Eight Mile Creek. No access points are proposed or approved to/from Eagle Road. The original concept plan submitted with this application depicted aright-in access from Eagle Road at the north end of the site, aright-in/right-out access (in tlae current location of Rackham Way), afull-access (in the future location of Rackham Way) to Overland Road, and no stub to the property to the east. Since application submittal, the applicant has submitted a revised plan that reduces the amount of access points originally proposed to the site and provides a stub street to the property to the east, as detailed above. Staff and ACHD are supportive of the proposed access points to/from the site and stub street to the adjacent property to the east, as depicted on the revised concept plan attached in Exhibit A.2. However, the ACIID report does note that Rackham Way will be restricted to a right-in/right- out onto Overland Raad in the future when a raised median is constructed upon determination Overland Village AZ-08-001 & VAC-08-001 Page 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 by ACRD that a substantial safety hazard exists or on the provision of a connection from Rackham Way to a signalized intersection to the east, whichever occurs first. Additionally, Planning and ACHD Staff recommend that the applicant construct a public stub street from Rackham Way to the west easement boundary of the Eight Mile Creek as proposed on the site plan, and road trust with the District for one-half the costs of a bridge crossing of the Eight Mile, to allow for future connectivity to the east and access to the signalized Overland-Silverstone intersection. Note: Jim Kissler, the owner of three parcels to the northeast of the site, submitted a letter to ACIE] stating that (in his opinion) the main access to his property and the Elk's property (south of the interstate) will be primarily from the signalized intersection at Overland and Silverstone. With the stub street mentioned above, the subject property and the property to the northhis tivould have access to a full access approach. Any access to Rackham Way (izz its current or proposed location) would be secondary, since Rackham is too close to the Eagle/Overland intersection and will eventually be a right-in/right-out access and would require a bridge to cross the confluence area of the Five Mile and Eight Mile Creeks. He feels that money would be better served to get to the signalized intersection, not the right- ira/right-out. Special Consideration for Commission & City Council: Staff concurs with Mr. Kissler that primary access to the Kissler and Elks properties should be provided from the future light at the Silverstone/Overland intersection with secondary access being provided via Rackham Way. The subject property would also be able to use the signalized intersection for access to/from the site; however, it would be more meandering than a direct access and Staff believes that folks would be less likely to use it than if it were more of a direct route to the site. Because the access points to the subject property will eventually be restricted to a right-in/right-out access at Rackham and aright- in only access only is currently proposed closer to the Dverland/Eagle intersection, Staff (Planning, Fire, and Police) believes that construction of a bridge across the Eight Mile Creek would be beneficial far the subject property i~a order for full access to be provided from the signalized intersection east of the site. The Fire Department is especially concerned about providing emergency access to this site if a bridge is not constructed so that full access can be provided from the signalized intersection at Silverstone/Overland. Dtherwise, when Rackham is restricted to right-inlright--out, the Fire Department will either have to access the site from the west the long way through the Kissder/Elks properties or a "U" turn in the middle of Overland, neither of which is desirable. For this reason, the Fire Department recommends that the project be denied if a permanent Ceft-in access cannot be provided from eastbound Overland Road into the site. Staff has added a Development Agreement provision requiring the applicant to pay far half the cost of the bridge, through a road trust, to provide connection to the undeveloped property to the east and for access to/from the signalized intersection. Waterways: The Five Mile Creek runs along the north boundary and the Eight Mile Creek runs along the east and north boundaries of this property. Per the Comprehensive Plan, these creeks should be improved and protected throughout commercial areas. Staff is including a DA provision for the applicant to protect the creeks during the development process. Staff would Pncnurage the applicant, to improve the area adjacent, to the creeks a.r a development amenity. Landscaping: East Overland Road and S_ Ragle Road are bath. classified as arterial streets and entryway corridors into the City; as such, a 35-foot wide landscape buffer is required along Overland & Eagle. South Rackham Way is classified as a local street; as such, a 10- foot wide landscape bui;fer is required. All landscaping will be required by the City with Overland Village AZ-0$-001 & VAG08-001 Page 8 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 future CUP/CZC approval and shall be installed prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy. Multi-Use Pathway: The proposed pathway network plan contained in the Master Pathways Plan shows a portion of the City's multi-use pathway running along the southern boundary of this site. This pathway should begin at the eastern boundary of the site, near/at the relocated Rackham Way intersection, and continue to the Eagle Road/Overland Road intersection. The applicant should coordinate the exact location of the pathway with the Parks Department. This pathway will be required to be installed prior to the first Certificate of Occupancy on this site. Provide written documentation from the Parks Department with the first CZC application, approving the pathway design and location. Floodplain: A portion of this site along the northern property boundary is located within the floodway. A large portion of the north half of this site is also located within the 100- year and 500-year floodplains, in flood zones AE and X5, respectively. The proposed building locations are within this area. Any work or improvement within the floodway or floodplain on this property shall file a floodplain development application with the City of Meridian Public Works Department prior to commencement of the work. Parking: For commercial uses, off-street parking stalls are currently required at the rate of one space per 500 square feet of gross floor area (UDC l 1-3C-6I3). Parking on the site will be reviewed for compliance with UDC standards at the time of CUP and/or CZC approval. Also, no linear grouping of parking spaces shall exceed twelve (12) in a row, without an internal planter island per UDC 11-3B-8C. Development Agreement: UDC 11-SB-3D2 provides the Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council the authority to require a property owner to enter iota a Development Agreement with the City of Meridian that may require some written commitment for all future uses. Because this in only an annexation application with no development proposed at this time, Staff believes that a Development Agreement is necessary to ensure that this property is developed in a fashion that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and does not negatively impact nearby properties. If the Commission or Council believe additional development agreement requirements are necessary, Staff recommends a clear outline of the commitments of the developer being required. A Development Agreement (DA) will be required as part of an annexation of this property. Prior to the annexation ordinance approval, a DA shall be entered into between the City of Meridian, the property owner(s) at the time of annexation ordinance adoption, and the developer. The Applicant shall contact the City Attorney, Sill Nary, at 888-4433 within six months of Council approval to initiate this process. The DA shall include, at mizrimum, the following: a. All future development of the subject property shall comply with City of Meridian ordinances in effect at the time of development. b. The site and buildings on the site shall comply with all of the design review standards listed in the UDC. A Design Review application shall be submitted with the CUP or CZC application (whichever occurs first) for all future buildings on this site. The detailed site plan and building elevations submitted with any CUP and/or CZC application for this site shall substantially comply with the conceptual site plan and building elevations submitted to the City as shown in Exhibit A of this staff report, as amended herein, and with the requirements of the subject Development Agreernaent. Construct a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 buildings on this site. No footprint for a single building shall exceed 20,000 square feet. Further, no building shall exceed 3 stories in height. Overland Village AZ-08-001 & VAC-08-001 Page 9 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 1, 2008 d. The applicant shall be responsible for all costs associated with sewer and water service installation. e. Any drive-thru establishment proposed on the site shall be subject to Conditional Use Permit approval. £ Direct access to/from this site from Eagle Road shall be prohibited. Access to the site shall be provided from one full access point to/from Overland Road via S. Rackham Way and one right-in access point to the site from Overland Road, as depicted on the conceptual site plan. The Rackham Way access tray be limited to right-in/riglil-uul only in llie future. g. Prior to the first occupancy permit being granted, a minimum 35-foot wide landscape buffer will be required and shall be constructed along the entire frontage of E. Overland Road and S. Eagle Road, in accordance with UDC 11-3B-7. h. A minimum 10-foot wide landscape buffer will be required and shall be constructed along the entire frontage of S. Rackham Way in accordance with UDC 11-3B-7. Prior to the first occupancy permit being granted, a 10-foot wide multi-use pathway will be required on this property in accordance with the Master Pathways Flan. Said pathway should connect to the Eagle/Overland intersection a.nd the relocated Rackham/Overland intersection, and continue to the east. Exact location of the pathway shall be coordinated with the Parks Department.

Further, the Fire Department is not supportive of a left-out access from the site to Overland because of the traffic hazard it would presumably create. If a median is constructed in Overland, the oNy way that Meridian fire units have of accessing the site from the west is thru the Silverstane development south of the site by first turning onto E. Goldstone to S. Silverstone Way to be able to enter the project from the east by going westbound on Overland.
