Conditional Use Pernut for the operation of a Church from an existing
building in an I-L zoning district, by Randy Rodes.
1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT'S REQUEST
The Applicant, Randy Rodes, is requesting Conditional Use Pernut (CUP) approval for the operation of a
Church from an existing warehouse building in an I-L (Light Industrial) zoning district. The site consists
of 3.8 acres and is located at 936 W. Taylor Street.
Per LTDC 11-2C-2, a Church or place of religious worship requires CUP approval in an I-L zoning
district. The subject site is currently developed with a 48,960 square foot warehouse building. The
applicant is proposing to lease 7,200 square feet to operate a church from the site. The remainder of the
space is leased to the YMCA. At this time, the applicant is only proposing interior improvements and
change of use; therefore no additional site improvements are required per the UDC. However, Staff has
reviewed the submitted site and landscape plans for conformance with. the UDC and found the site
conforms to the parking and landscape requirements of the UDC. Furthermore, in approving any
conditional use, the Planning & Zoning Cominission may prescribe appropriate conditions, sureties and
safeguards that are more restrictive standards than those generally required in the UDC (UDC 11-5B-6D).

g. Description of Applicant's Justification for CUP Approval: "The congregation is in drastic need
of more space and desires to relocate the church at 936 W. Taylor Street. Most of the building is
already occupied by the YMCA. The church would be leasing approximately 7,200 square feet of
the south end of the building. The YMCA and the Yanke Family have given their approval for the
church to operate from the site. We believe moving to a larger facility would enable the church to

On April 25, 2008, a joint agency and departments meeting was held with service providers in this area.
The agencies and departments present included: Meridian Fire Departrnent, Meridian Public Works
Department, Meridian Police Department and the Sanitary Services Company. Staff has included
comments, conditions, and recommended actions in Exhibit B below.
8. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the subject property as "Industrial." Per
Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, the Industrial land use category "includes areas that are
designated to allow a range of industrial uses to support industrial and commercial activities and to
develop with sufficient urban services. In light industrial areas, uses may include warehouses, storage
units, light manufacturing, and incidental retail and office uses."
Staff finds that the request generally conforms to the stated purpose and intent of the Industrial
designation within the Cornprehensive Plan. Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be
applicable to this property and apply to the proposed use (staff analysis in italics):
• Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1- Require that development projects have planned
for the provision of all public services. ~
When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the
subject property. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the subject
property in the following manner;
- Sanitary sewer and water service is extended to the project at the developer's expense.
- The subject property is within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Fire District.
- The subject property is serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD).
- The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the
Ada County Highway District (ACHD). This service will not change.
- The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District No. 2. This
service will not change.
- The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service
will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer no revenue loss as a
result of the subject annexation.
Municipal, fee-supported, seruices will be provided by the Meridian Building Department, the
Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian Wastewater
Department, the Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary
Services Company.
Encourage compatible uses to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land. (Chapter VII, Goal
IV)
Staff believes that the proposed use should be compatible and not con.flict with existing uses
in the area.
Vineyard Christian Fellowship - CUP-08-O10 Page 4
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 15, 2008
• Chapter N, Goal I, Objective A, Action 6(page 26) - Pernut new residential, commercial, or
industrial developments only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of final
approval and development is contiguous to the City.
The subject property lies within the boundaries of the City of Meridian and is provided with
City services.
•"Require all commercial businesses to install and maintain landscaping." (Chapter V, Goal III,
Objective D, Action item 5)
The landscaping approved on the site is in conformance with the UDC landscaping standards
Said landscaping should be maintained in accordance with the applicable standards listed in
UDC 11-3B-13.
Staff recommends that the Commission rely on any verbal or written testimony that may be provided at
the public hearing when determining if the applicant's request is appropriate for this property.
9. ZONING ORDINANCE
a. Allowed LTses in Industrial Districts: UDC Table 11-2G2 lists the pernutted, accessory, and
conditional uses in the I-L zoning district. Churches are a conditional use in the I-L zone with the
Specific Use Standards listed in LJDC 11-4-3-6 (see Section 10, Analysis, for specific use
standards).
b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the I-L district is to provide for convenient
employment centers of light manufacturing, research and development, warehousing, and
distributing. In accord with the Meridian comprehensive plan, the I-L district is intended to
encourage the development of industrial uses that are clean, quiet and free of hazardous or
objectionable elernents and that are operated, entirely, or almost entirely, within enclosed
structures. Accessibility to transportation systems is a requirement of this district.
10. ANALYSIS
a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: Staff is generally supportive of the
proposed CUP request as presented in the staff report, with the following comments:
CUP: Per UDC 11-2G2, a"Church or Place for Religious Worship" requires conditional use
permit approval in the I-L zone. The subject site is currently a vacant tenant space in which the
applicant is proposing to conduct church services for up to 300 patrons. The applicant has
submitted a site and landscape plan with this application; however the site and building are not
, changing, only the use. Therefore, no additional site improvements are explicitly required by the
UDC. Furthermore, Staff has reviewed said plans for conformance with the UDC and found the
site conforms to the parking and landscape requirements of the UDC.
Specific Use Standards for Church or Place of Religious Worship per UDC 11-4-3-6:
Schools, child daycare services, meeting facilities for clubs and organizations, and other
similar uses not operated primarily for the purpose of religious instruction, worship,
government of the church, or the fellowship of its congregation may be permitted to the
extent the activity is otherwise permitted in the district. At this time, the applicant is not
proposing any other ancillary uses other than those associated with religious worship. If
in the future the church wants to establish child daycare services on-site; then an
' CZC should be filed with the Planning Department.
Vineyazd Christian Fellowship - CUP-08-O 10 Page 5
CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF MAY 15, 2008
Access: Access to the site is taken from W. Taylor Street. No other access points are proposed
with this application.
Parking: Per UDC 11-3C-6B all industrial districts require one space for every 2,000 square feet
of gross floor area. The site is currently developed with a 48,960 square foot warehouse building
and provides a total of 184 parking stalls and is well above the minimum of 25 parking stalls
required by the UDC. Based on the ratio of parking per square footage, staff has calculated the
parking ratio on the site to be one space per 275 square feet of gross floor area. Currently the
building is occupied by the YMCA. The church is proposing to lease 7,200 square feet and to
conduct services for up to 300 patrons. Furthermore, the Church and YMCA will share parking
for the site on Sunday afternoons. However, staff has concerns with the amount of parking for
the site because the City does not have parking requirements based on the seating capacity
for places of religious worship. Therefore, the Commission should determine if the
proposed parking is adequate for the use proposed for the site.
Hours of Operation: The hours of operation for the proposed use as stated in the application are
Sunday from 7:30 am to 2:00 pm. Typically, other church related activities occur during the week
including but not limited to office duties and church gatherings/meetings may occur during
normal business hours to conduct routine church business. Furthermore, the applicant has stated
the YMCA, which occupies the rernainder of the building, opens at Noon on Sundays; however
the services for the day are expected to be concluded prior to the YMCA opening. Staff is
supportive of the hours of operation for the site and is proposing that this be a restriction of the
use.
Elevations: Photos of the existing building were submitted with this application. At this time,
the applicant is not proposing any exterior modifications but has included a floor plan for the
interior layout of the tenant space. On the submitted floor plan, the applicant is proposing offices
and classrooms to be located on the east side of the tenant space. Therefore, staff is
recommending the applicant provide some exterior modifications to the building to address
the front facade facing the public street and provide additional windows with awnings to
provide natural lighting for the proposed office space and classroom space. Staff is
reeommending two windows be placed on the east side of the building with decoraHve
awnings in the vicinity of proposed classroom number 4 and office number 3. In addition,
the roll-up door in the southeast corner of the building should be removed and enclosed
with similar siding and provide a window with a decorative awning for proposed office
number 2. Theses exterior modifications are conditioned in Exhibit B.
Certificate of Zoning Compliance: The purpose of a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC)
permit is to ensure that all construction, alterations and/or the establishment of a new use
complies with all of the provisions of the UDC before any work on the structure is started and/or
the use is established (UDC 11-SB-lA). To ensure that all of the conditions of approval listed in
Exhibit B are complied with, the Applicant will be required to obtain CZC approval from the
Planning Deparhment prior to establishment of the new use. ~1 improvements must be installed
prior to occupancy.
b. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of CUP-08-O10 for the requested
Church use in the I-L zone for Vineyard Christian Fellowship, as presented in the Staff
Report for the hearing date of May 15, 2008, based on the Findings of Fact as listed in
Exhibit C and subject to the conditions of approval listed in Exhibit B.
The Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission heard this item on Mav 15. 2008. At the
public hearing, the Commission moved to approve CUP-08-O10.
