Concurrently, the applicant is requesting Conditional Use Permit (CUP) approval to construct and operate a residential care facility consisting of two 9,000 square foot residential treatment buildings and one 6,000 square foot administrative building. UDC 11-2A-2 requires CUP approval to operate a nursing or residential care facility within an R-8 zoning district. The subject property is located at 5075 W.

SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION The subject applications (AZ and CUP) were submitted to the Planning Department for concurrent review. By City Ordinance, the Planning & Zoning Commission makes a recommendation to the City Council on a combined AZ and CUP application. Below, Staff has provided a detailed analysis and recommended conditions of approval for the requested Annexation and Conditional Use Permit applications. Staff recommends approval of AZ-08-008 and CUP-OS-015 for Redmont Health Services, as presented in the Staff Report for the hearing date of July 17, 2008, based on the Findings of Fact as listed in Exhibit D and subject to the conditions listed in Exhibit B. The Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission heard these items on July 17, 2008. At the public hearin the Commission moved to recommend approval of the subiect AZ and CUP request. a. Summary of Commission Public Hearing: i. In favor: Doug Russell (Applicant's Representative). Robin Hinkle ii. In opposition: None iii. Commenting: Don Glower, Jeff Morrell iv. Written testimony: Don Clower submitted written comments for denial after the P&Z meeting. v. Staff presenting application: Bill Parsons vi. Other staff commenting on application: Caleb Hood, Scott SteckGne b. Kev Issue(s) of Discussion by Commission: i. The differences between residential care facilities and out-patient care facilities. ii. Sewer stub to Mr. Glower's property west of this site. iii. The need for private streets required by the Fire, Police and Planning Departments. Redmont Health Services AZ-OS-008 and CUP-08-O15 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARMG DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 iv. Discussed the relocation of the trash enclosure from the location proposed on the submitted site. The Commission discussed the trash enclosure be placed within the stubbed driveway until future connectivity to east parcel was extended through. This location was discussed as a solution for meeting the 150-foot length for the Fire Department requirement without having to provide a temporary turnaround. A motion was not made by the Commission to relocate the trash enclosure. c. Kev Commission Change(s) to Staff Recommendation: i. The Commission modified several DA provisions, as follows: 1) provision 1.1.2(bJ modified to allow continuing care (out-patient) for the past residents of the proposed facility and strike out out-patient care is prohibited: 21 provision 1.1.2(0.1 modified to require striping instead of bollards as requested by the Fire Department at the 150-foot mark of the east leg of the proposed driveway/private street; 31 provision 1.1.2(sJ modified to require construction of a 5-foot detached sidewalk along the north boundary of the property instead of the 10-foot multi-use pathway. ii. Condition 1.2.1 Bullet 4 was modified to be consistent with DA provision 1.1.2(oJ removing the bollard requirement and adding striping at the 150-foot mark of the east lei. iii. Condition 1.2.13 was stricken as the Parks Department communicated to staff the mulfi-use pathway was proposed along the north side of Cherry Lane instead of the northern property boundary of the site. d. Outstanding Issue(s) for City Council: i. The City Council should determine if the proposed treatment facility, including care of residents and follow-up care of past residents (out-patient) is appropriate in an R-S zoning district. ii. The applicant should follow up with the Fire Department regarding the replacement of the bollards with the striping at the 150-foot mark of the east leg of the drive aisle and modify condition 3.14 accordingly. If the Fire Department still requires the placement of the bollards it will impact the location of the hash enclosure and an appropriate location should be discussed and identified during the hearing. a, ummarv of City Council Public Hearing: L In favor: Van EI¢.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS This property is designated "Medium Density Residential" on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Medium density residential areas are anticipated to contain three to eight dwelling units per acre (see Page 99 of 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): Redmont Health Services AZ-08-008 and CUP-08-015 - 5 - CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 • Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. (Chapter Vll, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1) • 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 #2. This service will not change. • The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service will not change. • The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Rural Fire District. Once annexed the lands will be under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural Fire Department. • The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada County Sheriff's Office. Once annexed the lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD). • The subject site can be serviced by the City of Meridian's sanitary sewer and water system. Municipal, fee-supported, services 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. Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action 1: Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels. The Comprehensive Plan Map envisions the adjacent properties in this area of Meridian to develop with residential land uses. For the proposed use to be compatible with future residential uses, Staff is proposing a development agreement on this site. Staff believes the proposed development can be harmonious with the existing and future residential developments in the area, if the conditions of approval are complied with. • Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective D, Action 5: Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridor (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.). The applicant is required to install and maintain a 25 foot landscape buffer adjacent to W Cherry Lane, an arterial roadway. Chapter V, Goal III, Objective D, Action 3 (page 43) -Require all new parking lots to provide landscaping in internal islands. The site plan depicts internal parking lot landscaping on the site. Said landscaping should be in compliance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8. • Chapter IV, Goal I, Objective A, Action 6 (page 26) -Permit 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 can provide the necessary City services. Redmont Health Services AZ-OS-008 and CUP-08-O15 - 6 - CTTY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 • Encourage compatible uses to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land. (Chapter VII, Goal IV) The surrounding area is primarily rural residences however just west of the subject site the Comprehensive plan depicts a neighborhood center which envisions neighborhood friendly services in the area. Staff believes that the proposed use should be compatible with existing uses in the area and provide a necessary service in the surrounding area. • Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective D, Action 9: Require new residential development to provide permanent perimeter fencing to contain construction debris on site and prevent windblown debris from entering adjacent agricultural and other properties. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is proposing a 6 foot vinyl fence along the western property boundary of the site. Prior to any building permits the proposed fencing and temporary fencing will need to be installed to contain debris. Chapter VI Goal V, Objective A, Action 2: Insure that high-quality emergency care, primary, outpatient, home and log-term care and other types of health caze are provided in the community. The IJDC allows Residential Care Facilities in an R-8 zone with conditional use approval. Furthermore, staff believes this facility will be a high quality development, if the conditions of approval are complied with. Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action 11 -Improve and protect creeks (Five Mile, Eight Mile, South Slough ...etc.) throughout commercial, industrial, and residential areas. The Ten Mile Creek, which runs along the southern boundary of this site, should be protected during development of the site. • Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A.1 -Preserve and conserve our waterways, wetlands, wildlife habitat, and other natural resources. The Ten Mile Creek, a natural waterway, runs along the southern boundary of this site. As a natural waterway, it will remain open and should be preserved. Staff believes that the proposed use is generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and can be compatible with the surrounding uses. 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. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE a. Zoning Schedule of Use Control: UDC 11-2A-2 lists nursing or residential care facilities as conditional uses in the R-8 zone. b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the residential districts is to provide for a range of housing opportunities consistent with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Connection to the City of Meridian water and sewer systems is a requirement for all residential districts. Residential districts are distinguished by the allowable density of dwelling units per acre and corresponding housing types that can be accommodated within the density range. c. General Standards: There are several standazds for nursing or residential care facilities listed in UDC 11-4-3.29. Analysis of these specific use standards are provided in Section 10 below. Redmont Health Services AZ-08-008 and CUP-08-O15 - 7 - CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 10. ANALYSIS a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: Staff is generally supportive of the AZ and CUP request as proposed, with the following comments: AZ Application: The Applicant is requesting approval to annex and zone approximately 5 acres from the Rl zoning district in Ada County to the R-8 zoning district in the City. The property is currently designated on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map for Medium Density Residential. UDC 11-2A-2 requires CUP approval for nursing or residential care facilities. The applicant is proposing to develop the site as a treatment facility (residential care facility) consisting of two 9,000 square foot residential treatment buildings and one 6,000 square foot administrative building. Future pad sites for two Alzheimer buildings are shown on the site plan; however, they are not proposed for construction with this CUP (they will require separate CUP approval in the future). The annexation path for this site is via Incline Village Subdivision located northwest of the subject site. The annexation legal description submitted with the application (stamped on May 28, 2008 by Aaron L. Ballard, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. UDC 11-SB-3D2 provides the Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council the authority to require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement (DA) with the City of Meridian that may require some written commitment for all future uses. Because of the nature of the development, Staff believes that a DA is necessary to ensure that the site develops in a manor that is consistent with the approved plans and does not negatively impact adjacent properties. Staff has included a list of recommended DA provisions below. If the Commission or Council feels additional development agreement provisions are necessary, staff recommends a clear outline of the commitments of the developer being required. Residential Care Facilities: As mentioned above, the proposed use is a conditional use in the proposed R-8 district. Staff believes that the proposed use can be compatible with future single- family homes in this area. However, Staff has some concerns with some of the uses proposed with the subject application. The applicant states that there will be outpatient counseling. Counseling and care for the patients staying at the facility is consistent with a residential care facility. But offering outpatient counseling is more a professional service use than a residential care use and Staff believes is not appropriate in a residential district. This facility is proposed in an R-8 district and the uses should be related to living on the site. Staff requests that the applicant clarify at the public hearing how the outpatient counseling will function. Staff s initial reaction is to limit the treatment to the residents and relatives of residents. Therefore, a DA provision is included below restricting outpatient services on this site. Development Agreement: A Development Agreement (DA) will be required as part of annexation of this property. Prior to annexation 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, Bill Nary, at 888-4433, within 12 months of City Council approval to initiate this process. Please be advised a $303.00 fee will required to process the development agreement. The DA shall include, at minimum, the following: a. UntIl a future CUP is approved, a maximum of 3 buildings (2 residential buildings and 1 administrative building) shall be allowed to be constructed on the site. All future uses on this site will require a new CUP, unless waived by the Planning Duector because the use is principally permitted. Redmont Health Services AZ-08-008 and CUP-OS-015 - 8 - CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 b. Treatment on this site (counseling, therapy, etc.) shall be limited to the residents on the site; outpatient services shall be prohibited. c. At a minimum, amenities shall be constructed on the site as proposed on the site plan (i.e. walking path, garden area, rope course). d. The site/structures shall comply with the Specific Use Standards listed in UDC 11-4- 3-29 for nursing or residential care facility. e. One access to this site, from W. Cherry Lane, is approved. £ All existing buildings on the site shall be removed prior to release of building permits for this development. g. Submit an application for private streets within the development. Two twenty-five foot wide private streets shall be provided within the site in accordance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3F-4. h. A 25-foot wide street buffer will be required along W. Cherry Lane, per UDC Table 11-2A-8. Landscaping shall be provided in said buffer in accordance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C, Landscape Buffers along Streets. i. With the CZC application, include mitigation details and a plan approved by the City Arborist, for the existing trees on the site, consisting of 354 caliper inches, proposed to be removed, in compliance with UDC 11-3B-10. Contact Elroy Huff, Ciry Arborist, 888-3579 for more details. j. A Certificate of Zoning Compliance is required prior to issuance of a building permit for any and all of the proposed buildings within this development. NOTE: A CZC application may include multiple structures within the development. k. The Ten Mile Creek shall be preserved and protected during construction on the site. 1. Set aside 48-feet of right-of--way measured from the centerline of Cherry lane for the future road widening. m. The development of this property shall substantially comply with the concept plan in Exhibit A, as determined by the Planning Director. n. Any future buildings shall substantially comply with the elevations in Exhibit A, as determined by the Planning Director. o. Construct private streets to the east and west properties. This includes the pavement and adjacent sidewalks. Place signs at the east and west property lines stating that the roads will be extended in the future. Due to the length and the lack of a turnaround for the east leg, place bollards in the asphalt at 150-feet. These bollards shall be removed once the property to the east is developed and the private street is extended.

Redmont Health Services AZ-OS-008 and CUP-08-015 - 10 - CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 Dimensional Requirements of the R-8 zone per UDC Table 11-2A-6: On the submitted site plan the proposed buildings comply with the required setbacks and the R-8 dimensional standards. Building Elevations: Elevations for the proposed buildings were submitted with this application, prepared by BRS Architects, labeled as Sheets A4.1, and are included in Exhibit A. The UDC requires buildings to be constructed of high quality building materials such as stone, brick, wood or other native materials. As mentioned earlier, the applicant is proposing to develop the site in phases with a total of three buildings in the first phase. All three of the buildings are proposed to be constructed of the same building materials. The applicant is proposing a variation is siding materials that includes stucco, lap, shake and board and batten wood siding with a stone veneer accents. Roofing materials are to be 25 yeaz architectural grade composition shingle. Staff believes the buildings will be constructed of quality materials and is supportive of the proposed elevations. Any future buildings constmcted on the site shall also substantially comply with these elevations. Parking: UDC 11-3C-6 requires 0.5 spaces per dwelling unit for nursing or residential caze facilities. In addition, 1 per 500 square feet of gross floor azea is required for the administrative building. Each of the proposed residential buildings (2 total) is expected to house 24 patients and the administrative building is approximately 6,000 square feet. Based on the parking requirements of the UDC (24 X 2 X 0.5) (6,000/500) the minimum parking for the site is 36 and 77 stalls aze proposed. Staff believes this is enough parking to meet the needs of the first three buildings, but may not be enough for the future buildings in the future. Parking requirements will be further evaluated with additional development of this site. In addition, a bicycle rack is required to be installed on the site that is capable of holding a minimum of two bicycles and should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3C-SC. If the above changed is made, staff is supportive of the parking for the site. Access: The applicant is proposing to take access to/from W. Cherry Lane. Staff and ACRD are supportive of the proposed access point. For internal circulation, the applicant is proposing a common 25-foot drive aisle for access within the development. The Meridian Fire Department and the Meridian Police Department have conditioned the applicant submit a private street application for addressing the future buildings. Furthermore, staff believes the applicant should provide cross-access to the parcels to the west and east of the subject site for future connectivity when those parcels propose to annex and develop within the City. Staff has made this a provision of the development agreement. Staff is requiring the applicant stub the west/east drive aisles to the adjacent properties, and place signs at the property line stating that these roads will be extended in the future. Due to the Fire Department's concerns about length of the eastern leg, Staff is requiring the applicant place bollards at 150-feet length because there is not a turnaround. When the property to the east is developed the bollards shall be removed. Staff is also requiring a copy of the recorded cross-access agreement prior to occupancy of the first building. Site Plan: Staff has reviewed the site plan (prepared by The Land Group, dated 05/28/2008, labeled as CUP-1, included in Exhibit A) submitted with this application. The following items should to be shown on a revised site plan submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application: • Per UDC 11-3C-6G, provide a minimum of 2 bicycle parking spaces on the site in compliance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3C-SC. Per UDC 11-3C-SB3, the parking stalls adjacent to the buildings shall have substantial wheel restraints to prevent cazs from encroaching beyond the stall area onto the sidewalk or the sidewalk maybe widened to 7 feet to allow for overhang in this area. Redmont Health Services AZ-08-008 and CUP-08-015 - 11 - CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 26, 2008 • Signs, and bollazds on the east leg, should be along the west and east property boundaries stating road to be extended in the future. • Provide 77 parking stalls, as proposed. Landscaping: Staff has reviewed the landscape plan (prepared by The Land Group, dated 05/28/2008, labeled as L1.00, included in Exhibit A) submitted with this application. The following items should be shown on a revised landscape plan submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance: Per UDC Table 11-2B-3, a 25-foot wide landscape street buffer is required along W. Cherry Lane, as depicted on the landscape plan. However, the landscape plan shows trees planted outside of the buffer. UDC 11-3B-7C3 requires all landscape buffers along streets be planted with trees and shrubs, lawn, or other vegetative groundcover. The applicant should revise the landscape plan to comply with this requirement. Staff has reviewed the internal parking lot landscaping depicted on the landscape plan and found it substantially complies with the landscaping requirements in UDC 11-3B-8. UDC 11-3B-7 states if the unimproved street right-of--way is ten feet or greater from the edge of pavement to the edge of property line, and the street widening project is not in the transportation authority 5 year funded plan, the developer shall maintain a ten foot wide compacted gavel shoulder meeting the construction standazds of the transportation authority and landscape the remainder with lawn or other vegetative groundcover. In ACRD staff report, Cherry Lane is not scheduled for widening between 2019 and 2028. The applicant should revise the landscape plan to be in compliance with this requirement. Construct a 6-foot vinyl fence along the western and eastern property boundaries. Meridian Pathways Master Plan: The City's pathway plan has identified this site as a potential to extend the pathways network. Tn the text section of the Pathway plan (page 4-13) a portion along the northern and southern boundazies of the subject site are identified as possible pathway locations. The reason for the two locations on the subject site is one location is a short-term route and the other is a long term route. The document states the short tetm route is an on-street route along W. Chevy Lane located along the northern boundary of the site and the long term route is along the south side of Ten Mile Creek and does not require the pathway to be located on the subject property. The applicant is proposing a 10-foot detached pathway within the required landscape buffer to comply with this requirement. Staff is generally supportive of the pathway location; however, the applicant should contact the Parks Department to determine the preferred location of the proposed pathway and ACHD to verify that they are okay with the pathway too. Mitigation: The landscape plan depicts 5 existing trees, consisting of 167 caliper inches, on the site that are proposed to be remain during the development of the property. All other trees that were not labeled to remain are proposed for removal. The applicant states the total caliper inches proposed for mitigation is 354 caliper inches. Staff has been informed by the applicant that the City's Arborist has met with the applicant on site and is currently working on a mifigation plan. Per UDC 11-3B-10, mitigation is required for all existing trees fl- inch caliper or greater removed form the site with equal replacement of the total calipers lost on site up to an amount of 100% replacement. Staff recommends that the applicant comply with the mitigation standards listed in UDC 11-3B-IOC.

The amenities include areas for flower beds, a convenient and large common area, a pathway system and a rope course. Staff recommends that the Commission determine if the proposed amenities are appropriate for a development of this size. Hours of Operation: The proposed facility is requesting to operate as a 24 hour facility. Staff is recommending provisions be in place to allow for 24 hour care on the property. Staff recommends the shift changes for the staff not occur between the hours of 11 pm and 7 am to not disturb the residents of the current and future adjacent neighborhoods. If the applicant complies with this recommendation, staff is supportive of the applicant's request for 24 hour use. Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC): A CZC application is required to be submitted to the Planning Department for approval prior to issuance of building permits for the proposed building on this site. The applicant should submit revised plans that comply with the conditions of approval listed in Exhibit B of this staff report, with the CZC application. All improvements must be installed prior to occupancy. NOTE: A CZC application may include multiple structures within the development. Pressure Irrigation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems be supplied by a year-round source of water. The applicant should be required to use any existing surface or well water for the primary source.

Prior to the issuance of building permit, the existing home and outbuildings on this site shall be removed. Fencing: On the submitted landscape plan, fencing is being proposed along the western boundary of the site. No other fencing is being proposed with this application. However, staff is recommending a 6-foot vinyl fence be placed along the eastern boundary to buffer against future residential that has the potential develop in the area. The comprehensive plan designates the parcels to the east as Medium Density Residential and the use the applicant is proposing is more intense than a residential development. Prior to any building permits the proposed fencing and temporary fencing will be required to be installed to contain debris. Fencing should taper down to a 3 foot maximum within 20 feet of all rights-of--way. All fencing shall be installed in accordance with UDC 11-3A-7.
