Item 7: Public Hearing: PP 07-013 Request for Preliminary Plat approval for 11
building lots and 2 common lots on 26.35 acres in an I-L zone for
Kennedy Commercial Center by DBSI Meridian 184, LLC - 1250 W.
Overland Road:
Rohm: Boy, we are moving right along. We just got a couple things left and we will be
out of here. Okay. Before we start, basically, the process that we go through with the
public hearings is we first open the Public Hearing and, then, we ask the staff for their
testimony. Once the staff has given their testimony as it relates to city ordinance and to
the Comprehensive Plan, then, we ask the applicant to come forward and present the
project from their perspective. Once we have heard both those presentations it is, then,
open to the public. The public has an opportunity to respond to anything they have
heard in testimony and/or as they perceive it as it relates to the UDC and
Comprehensive Plan. The applicant gets the final say. They get to speak, respond to
any testimony given in the Public Hearing form and, then, once that's all completed, we,
as the Commission, will either continue the items or make some sort of a decision,
either forwarding to City Council or -- with approval or recommended for denial.
Rohm: So, with that being said, I'd like to open the Public Hearing of PP 07-013 related
to the Kennedy Commercial Center and begin with the staff report.
Wafters: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, the application before you is a
preliminary plat request for the proposed Kennedy Commercial Center. The property is
26.35 acres in size and is currently zoned I-L. The subject property is located at 1250
West Overland Road on the north side of Overland, approximately a quarter mile east of
Linder Road. The property is bordered on the east by Western Electronics, zoned I-L,
and Mountain View Equipment, zoned C-2 in Ada County. On the west by vacant
property, zoned I-L. On the north by I-84 and on the south by Overland Road and
existing rural residential property zoned RUT and R-1 in Ada County. This is an aerial
view of the property. The site currently consists of vacant, undeveloped land. This
property is currently zoned I-L, which complies with the Comprehensive Plan map
designation of industrial. The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval of 11
commercial building lots and two common lots on 26.35 acres of land. The proposed
building lots range in size from .83 of an acre to 7.3 acres. Access to the site is
proposed from Overland Road via South Tech Lane here, an existing private street. A
driveway is also proposed at the southwest comer of the site from Overland Road. Staff
is supportive of the proposed access points, provided across-access easement is
recorded for all lots in the subdivision to use Tech Lane and the driveway to Overland
Road and that an access easement and driveway stub be provided to the property
owner to the west to use the driveway at the southwest comer of the site or locate the

The private street is currently approximately 400 feet long. The UDC does not allow

Overland Road. Thirty-five feet is currently shown on the landscape plan. A 50 foot
wide buffer is required along I-84 here and a ten foot wide buffer is required along South
Tech Lane. Additionally, a 25 foot wide buffer is required along the east property

South Tech Lane shall be limited to 450 feet as allowed by UDC, measured from the
~' ~~ `" ' center line of Overland to the center of the cul-de-sac. Per our discussion earlier today
~ and what Sonya just mentioned, that should read from the center line of Overland to the

also contain a provision for emergency vehicle access and turnaround. So, I don't now
if that -- if that made sense. Functionally it's still going to be what you're seeing here,
but it's a distinction in the length of the private street.

boundary of the common lot. End of motion.
O'Brien: Second.
Rohm: It's been moved and seconded to forward onto City Council recommending
approval of file number PP 07-013, to include the staff report with the aforementioned
modifications. All those in favor say aye. Opposed same sign? Motion carried.

North Meridian Road and East Ustick Road. The zoning for the properties adjacent to
the site include R-8 -- R-8 to the north and to the east and R-6 Ada County to the south
and, then, Settler's Park to the west, which is also zoned L-O. The site is consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan, which is designated limited office as well. Here is the
subject site here and an aerial photo. The actual lot is right here in the comer, which
you can see is quite a distance away from the residential properties. The Unified
Development Code requires Conditional Use approval for indoor recreational facilities in
the L-O zone. The applicant is seeking approval of this Conditional Use Permit to
operate a 4,750 square foot single story, 24-hour fitness center. As mentioned earlier,
there are residential uses nearby the subject property. Due to this site being located on
the comer of Meridian and Ustick Road, staff believes this would not have an adverse
impact on the surrounding residential neighborhoods, therefore, all of the conditions
regarding the site are standard UDC requirements and no site specific conditions were
proposed. Also located on the site are two existing office buildings, one to the east --
and this is where they are proposing Anytime Fitness. There is a constructed building
to the east here and also one to the north. This is a dental office and this is a real
estate office and also insurance firm. The access to the site will be off of Meridian Road
to the north, Ustick to the east of the site, and also from the adjacent residential
property to the east. If you look at the site plan here you also see 15 parking stalls
that's already been constructed. All of these and the landscape buffer were all
approved under the final plat for Sundance Subdivision No. 5. The applicant did submit ~: ~.:
a landscaping plan and are proposing an additional 15.8 percent of landscaping on the
interior of the site around the building. So, here is where the existing landscaping is
now and this is the future landscaping, which is an additional 15.8 percent. The
applicant also submitted elevations. This is the east side of the building, which is
towards the Ustick entrance -- access points. You have the north elevations, the west
elevations, and the south elevations. And here is the color rendering of the east
elevation. It's also important to note that these elevations -- these same elevations
were pre-approved with the CZC application for the office shell. So, as I mentioned
earlier, if this CUP application isn't approved for an indoor fitness center, then, the
building will be billed as -- for office use. And it's already been approved under -- as far
as on a staff level. I'd also like to make the Commission aware that a letter of testimony
has been submitted for this application in denial of the project and that should be
included in your packet as well before you this evening. Staff is recommending -
approval of the project or the Conditional Use Permit as stated in the staff report,
subject to conditions listed in Exhibit B of the staff report. This concludes my
presentation and I would be happy to answer any questions the Commission may have
regarding the project.
Rohm: Thank you very much. Any questions of staff?
O'Brien: Yes, Mr. Chairman. Are there any existing trees of any caliper on the site
currently?
Parsons: Yeah. The buffer -- this buffer -- the two 25 foot buffers or -- I think it's 25 foot
buffers along here and in the existing planters here have all the required trees and they

are -- they meet code requirement of two in caliper or larger. So, all this landscaping
installed. This -- what they are planning on doing is adding this landscaping around the
building and, then, integrating it with the buffer landscaping.
O'Brien: So, there is no existing trees that have been there for awhile that's been
affected by this?
Parsons: No. None are going to be removed and none -- just what they have put in the
landscape buffers during the final plat requirements.
O'Brien: Is there going to be any cross-over traffic between the other sites and that
particular one?
Parsons: Yeah. They do have an access agreement to go across all the sites there
and there is also shared parking as well. So, even though they are proposing 15 -- go
back here. Even though they show 15 parking stalls on site, they have a shared parking
agreement throughout the whole subdivision.
O'Brien: Thank you. That's all I have.
x. , :~
Rohm: Commissioner Newton-Huckabay, do you have any questions of staff?
~~ .
~''''` Newton-Huckabay: No. Thank you.
hi`
~` , , Rohm: Okay. Would the applicant like to come forward, please.
Brose: My name is Travis Brose with Dave Evans Construction, at 7761 West Riverside
Drive in Boise, and, essentially, staff did cover it. The reason we have moved forward
with the CZC application is an attempt to fast track this to the construction point due to
t' the client's timeline. They also understand that if it is denied here, that, basically, it's
only built as an office and they, unfortunately, need to find another location. But we feel
':., ~ that this will be a nice facility in this area with the surrounding residential and park
-;, nearby, there would be a lot of -- hopefully there would be a lot of pedestrian traffic from
the neighborhoods to the facility or bike traffic, rather than a lot of cars, vehicle traffic
-'' going through there, as well as being within an office park. The hope would be that the
"~'~~' other facility employees would also use this and with that I would stand for any
~,~,, ~ ~~ questions.
~'';;, Rohm: Do you know if there are other facilities of similar nature in operation currently?
Brose: The other facilities that I am aware of -- I believe there is one on Cheny Lane.
I'm not sure the cross -- the crossroad, whether it's Meridian or Linder. I believe it's
closer to Linder. But it is in, I guess, sort of a strip mall type setup and it's just kind of a
~~~:
'w^ really small facility.
~~ Rohm: It's small, but it's operated with extended hours?

Brose: I don't believe it is extended hours, actually.
Rohm: That was the reason for the question related to --
s;~I~ Brose: The only other facilities I'm aware of like the 24-hour type -- I guess Anytime
Fitness specifically, they have one in Kuna, as well as one in Caldwell and,
unfortunately, I can't think of any --
Rohm: Can you speak to how well they have been accepted in those -- like the one in II ;~~;
Kuna, are you familiar with that? ~ -1,
~~.
rose: I have seen the location. Didn't really take time to notice the area. I have driven i~l~.

by it several times. It is kind of a similar situation in a larger facility with shared uses in i ;-
~` there and speaking with the client earlier today, they said they get an average of a
hundred people per day at -- throughout the day and it's a pretty small occurrence that
they are -- that anybody is there past 10:00 o'clock. You know, it's the occasional
~~ - person that may work at HP or, you know, Micron with kind of the odd shifts that would
show up after midnight or something to that effect, so --
~- : Rohm: Uh-huh. Okay. Thank You. Any additional questions of the applicant?
O'Brien: I just have a question, Mr. Chair, on any -- any kind of police reports or any
issues or concerns that the police department might have with that -- with the hours
after midnight or even after dark for that length of time. Is there --
Brose: I'm not personally aware of any. The client did not bring that to my attention.
They do have avery -- I guess high tech facility, a lot of cameras. They have the card
readers that would unlock the facility for them to enter. They don't allow minors, anyone
under 18, there past 6:00 o'clock in the evening, due to staff members are there I
believe from 8:00 or 9:00 until 6:00 in the evening and they have had couple of
"~ occurrences of teens trying to use a parent's pass after that point of the evening with the
cameras and being able to read the computer systems, they shut down -- basically
locked out the key and they weren't able to use it at that point, so --
O'Brien: My concern was the safety --
~~I, Brose: Right. I understand.
y~~ O'Brien: -- from anybody lurking around the outside area. With the park across the
__ a ark's closed. I think they patrol them I
treet these kind of thins well, I think th p

O'Brien: Sundown? Okay. So, those are my concems and about, you know, if
anything, if the police had -- and maybe staff could add to that, if they were contacted to
-- with any concems about this establishment after hours.
Parsons: Chairman Rohm, Commissioner O'Brien, the police department did not
~~ comment on the staff report, but we can definitely check into that for you if you'd like.
O'Brien: I think it would be a good idea. That's my only question or concern.

Newton-Huckabay: Did they have an opportunity to comment and chose not to?

Hood: Mr. Chair, Commissioners, I m going to look for our agency comments meeting
notes and I'm sure they were invited. I don't recall offhand if they were at that meeting
or weren't at that meeting. I know they got the transmittal anyway and, generally, if they
get the transmittal and have concems, they either show up to that meeting and provide
~, ,
f=,' comments in person or will a-mail the planner their comments or concerns with the si e
n...

~'~ Newton-Huckabay: Anytime Fitness. I'm sorry.
Brose: Similar franchise. They do operate 24 hours.
Newton-Huckabay: Okay. The only other question I had is what kind of signs do you
put on the building?
Brose: Signs would be fairly minimal. It would be in compliance with code. I believe
there is a percentage of that. Having the comer location would be ideal on the elevation
-- the entrance of the building you can see there is -- it's -- I guess it would be tough I ~+
to -- ''
Rohm: There is a pointer right at your podium there.
°-~:
Brose: The areas here, as well as, you know, here, would be -- could you go back one,
please? This location, here we go, is the one I was looking for, is on Ustick Road. That
is -- would be conducive for any signage there. It's not going to be huge, obviously, the
space isn't going to allow it. It's going to be within code. It would be non-illuminated. It
would be their -- their logo, which says Anytime Fitness and has kind of a runner in
motion. It's --
Newton-Huckabay: I was actually more concerned about whether or not it's
illuminated --
Brose: Sure.
Newton-Huckabay: -- because that would -- the south -- the south location is the
closest to any residents --
Brose: Right.
Newton-Huckabay: And right in their -- would be right in their back window.
Brose: Yeah. I definitely understand that. As I said, it would be non-illuminated and
the soffits here, we do a recessed can lighting, which is similar to what you have above
~` you and it's a two foot soffit, so it's directed down along the walls and that would be kind
~~",~' of an indirect lighting and that's how it would be lit, so --
=<f ~~ Newton-Huckabay: Great. I have no more questions for the applicant.

Brown: I'm Resa Brown and I represent the Homeowners Association for Cedar
3; ~ Springs, which is actually -- the homeowners -- actually, the subdivision that is next to
Settler's Park. So, it's actually across the street.
Rohm: Okay. Could you give your address for the record.
Brown: Uh?
`. z Rohm: Your address.

Brown: My address?

t ~
Rohm: Yes.
~~
Brown: 3854 North Price Way, Meridian.
s
Rohm: Thank you.
Brown: We only have two concerns, the homeowners. One, we are concerned about
r . the traffic that this is bringing in. We are used to seeing commercial buildings of this
_
type in the comer and, like he said, we have real estate, and there is insurance, but I
don't know of any other subdivision with this commercial nature that has put in a Fitness
Center. The one he is describing on Chinden and Cheny both are on very major
thoroughfares. Meridian and Ustick just finally got -- as you're probably aware, we
finally got a traffic signal not too long ago and we are still just one lane in all directions.
we don't have two -- you know, four lanes going anywhere and additional traffic
So
'
s> : ,
s
would probably be a problem. He said 15 parking spaces for all of the buildings. That
~~ ~ not very much for a fitness center. I don't know, even a small gym 15 spaces, if you add
staff and the other buildings, where are these people going to park? There is no
parking on Meridian and Ustick. You have got Settler's Park right across the street and
~' .f:. -- but our other main concern would be the 24 hour feature. We fought hard in our
subdivision against vandalism and, of course, we have some, as all of them do. As you
Settler's Park had some as soon as the new playground equipment went in, they
know
` ~ ,
had that major damage. And I'm just wondering if you have 24 hour facility open -- they
'
;_`' t take
are saying by key card and no staff -- anyone can get in. I mean that doesn

~~ normal large looming fitness centers, Gold's Gym or any of the other extra large ones
~'* i that have the capacity for those, as well as a huge expanse of parking lot in there, which
sometimes can, you know, not be the best visually. We feel like the entire subdivision
as a whole really works together. All of the parking is directly adjacent to the buildings
`~ ~ and so it's really well lit by the building itself with the soffit lighting and this facility being
24 hour, all of the interior lights will be on shinning, you know, through -- not through the
windows to -- to be offensive to the neighbors, but would help to illuminate the parking
`~ and provide a little more safety in the evening time, as well as the rest of the buildings in
'~~~` ked out
hers ma be havin a car or two par
a: there will have all of the soffit lights on and of y g
there, it will just be a locked up office building during the time.
~_
°`_ Rohm: A question I have, then, and I think that it's been answered in the staff report,
y
~.; but just for the public, there is 15 on-site parking spaces, but, as I understand it, the
subdivision parking spaces are also available for use if need be for this facility as well,
~; not just the 15 that are adjacent to the building itself; is that correct?
~ Brose: That is correct.
Rohm: Okay.
Brose: With the rest of the office buildings in there work under I guess the normal
business hours of up until 5:00 or 6:00 o'clock in the evening. Most of the folks
attending would be going there after the office hours and would alleviate any parking
issues because no one else -- no other employees are in there, so there are plenty of
parking spaces available in the rest of the subdivision.
Rohm: Are you aware of any issues with the other facilities that the -- these developers
have, the Kuna property? Are you familiar with any issues that have arisen in those
communities?
Brose: I am not aware of any. I do believe the one in Kuna is -- it's similar, it's on a
,, comer, but, again, is in a larger facility and I believe it's near a gas station, which does
operate, you know, longer hours than another -- than just an office park as well.
`s + Rohm: All right. Thank you. Any other questions of the applicant?

i
~,~~ O'Brien: I have none.
i
'~ ~
Rohm: Thank you. Could Iget -- any discussion before we close the Public Hearing?
O'Brien: Yeah. I -- Mr. Chairman, I still have that concern about safety and security in
the off hours. By off hours I mean when there is not a person on the premises. I just
have a bad feeling about that, based on past history.
Newton-Huckabay: Mr. Chair, if I can make a comment. This type of business model is
not new. I've had opportunities in the past to use facilities like this in other cities and

without any incident and some of them in the even less amenable parts of town, if you
will. They are -- their security system is -- in my experience is -- are much more
designed -- you know, designed to protect their facilities. I have never -- now, again, I
don't have a world of experience with them, but I have been to several -- not Anytime
Fitnesses per se, but this particular business model and they have been quite
successful and you have -- you have a membership base who it's in their best interest to
-- you know, to treat the facility appropriately and I don't know where your liabilities lie
as a member, but Iwould -- I am certain that there is a -- one, you have a key card, so
you open yourself up to any kind of negligence -- and I'm not trying to get into legal
matters or hedge on some -- but I think the business model is not new and they have
been around, so I'm fairly comfortable with that myself. The one thing I am not totally
comfortable with, the 24 hour concept in the fact that we have actually limited hours of
operation in that very vicinity for other facilities and so I'm having a hard time reconciling
that. Caleb, could you -- how would you say this facility is different than say some of the
offices that we have limited around there?
Hood: Mr. Chair, Commissioner Newton-Huckabay, when we looked at this application,
the main difference that I see in it -- and Bill pointed out this is directly on the corner of
Meridian and Ustick, so it's on an arterial -- basically, it backs up to the arterial, rather
than backing up to residents. So, we didn't see the use of this being as intrusive as it
may be if it were another office base. Mentioned dentists that may stay later and as our
society becomes not an 8:00 to 5:00 society, staying open until 10:00 or 11:00 o'clock at
night, generally those L-O or office uses, those are restricted, because they do directly
back up. Now, it is true there are access points here, vehicles will be driving pretty
close to those residents and there may be some disturbance to those folks late at night.
You know, Bill and talked about it briefly about how many cars -- I mean it only takes
one person bumping their sound system at midnight or 1:00 o'clock to wake up the
neighbors, but we just didn't think that it was -- it warranted limiting the hours. Now, if
that's a concem, you sure can limit the hours, but that's just kind of where staff was
coming from in our recommendation that the scope of this building, the size of it, I hope
the business does well, but we just don't see it being a lot of people there in the middle
of the night using the facility. So, that's kind of staffs recommendation anyways. And
the difference between other L-O zoned businesses and those hours of restriction and
this one.
Newton-Huckabay: Well, my guess would be there is approximately three peak hours a
day for a fitness facility. Probably 6:00 to 8:00 -- or maybe 4:00. So, your average
amount of people there at any given time, if they expect a hundred people a day, you're
going to be lucky if you have five people at a time there at any given time, with the
exception of 6:00 to 8:00 and probably 4:00 to 7:00. The only other comment Ihave --
this is the type of thing that I envision when we look at these mixed use centers in
Meridian actually having is -- is places where people who live in that area, such as
myself, can go and so I don't have to drive across town or I don't have to drive out to the
west Y or that type of thing or can walk or ride my bike and so I'm generally in favor this
type of thing, because (believe -- I'm just so excited to have a gas station in north
Meridian now, so I'm in favor of that generally I guess I'd like the other two of you to
S
Meridian Planning & Zoning

Page 16 of 21
weigh in on the 24 hour. We have generally limited I think 6:00 to 11:00 everything else
~ around there.
Rohm: To chime in, I think that staff is pointing out that the existing commercial
development both north and east or a buffer to this comer lot and I concur with you that
we need that kind of development in our residential areas and I don't believe that it will
be intrusive at all, even at a 24 hour a day basis and it sounds like they have installed
e
security systems in similar projects at other locations and have met success at thos
if the are willin to invest in our community, I think we should support
locations and y g
that.

O'Brien: So, Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Newton-Huckabay, the -- to clarify, my
concems were not security of the facility inside, as much as concems about someone
being attacked on the outside at 1:00 or 2:00 o'clock in the morning with one or two
people around maybe. This was my only concern, just to make sure that you
understand where I'm coming from. I agree, I mean I would be a hundred percent for
this -- I think it is a good placement of this type of facility location-wise, if we limited the
hours and come up with an agreement with the hours that they should be. I recommend
10:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. that it be closed. That would satisfy my -- my needs, as well
as having security cameras on the outside or some type of thing that would monitor that
during the dark hours or something or when they are -- the hours are where people
would show up to use the facility.
Rohm: And I certainly support your right to your position, but just by definition, Anytime
Fitness means 24-7 and if we are to turn around and make a recommendation for
approval of anything less than the 24 hours, it defeats the purpose of their application.
So, from just my perspective I think that we either have to make a recommendation
based upon the application as submitted or make our recommendations for denial
and --
O'Brien: I agree with you on that. That's the whole purpose of them being there, Mr.
Chairman. But I would like to see them have some kind of a -- for the off hours a
security system that would entail cameras available that would monitor the parking area.
Rohm: Well -- and I think they do have that.
O'Brien: I don't know.
Rohm: Yeah. I think that that was the whole intent is there -- they have a camera
system that monitors ingress-egress, as well as the card reader that --
O'Brien: I didn't hear the other areas, just the entrances. Okay.
Rohm: All right. Could I get a motion to close the public --

Baird: Mr. Chair, before you close, I just wanted to clarify you do have another option
~~ ~ that if -- because this is a Conditional Use Permit, you're entitled to put conditions on
~' ' that you may not think that the applicant would find to be tasteful, but they would
~~ ~ certainly have the right to appeal any condition to the City Council and at that time they
could bring their operations people to further explain, we could have the police there --
they are generally there at the Council, so those could be addressed. So, just wanted
to make sure before you close that it doesn't have to be up or down, you do have the
ability to put conditions on.

"~ could I get a motion to close the Public Hearing on CUP 07-015?

Newton-Huckabay: Mr. Chair, I would like to make a motion to the effect of limiting --
limiting the hours. I would -- my personal opinion is that we would stick with the normal
hours of operation that we have been applying when we are limiting hours to any other
business in or near a residential area. I would possibly, actually, maybe go with 5:00
a.m. in the morning, given that that would probably be consistent with the time that
most facilities of that nature would open, with closing hours of 11:00.
Rohm: End of motion?
Newton-Huckabay: If I stated that, is it in a position where it could be interpreted as a

Item 9: Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law for Approval: CUP 07-015:
Request for Conditional Use Permit for a fitness center within the
Sundance Subdivision No. 5 for Anytime Fitness by Dave Evans
Construction - 3220 North Meridian Road:
Rohm: With the motion being passed differing from the application, do we act on the --
Item No. 9 or can we maybe carry that over to the next meeting and have Findings of
Facts and Conclusions of Law drawn up mirroring the motion for the next meeting?
Hood: Could you give me just one second to talk to the applicant about that? I think if
you're comfortable as staff, we could just add that -- write that one line in, it's just one
condition, there is not a huge change to the findings as you have them now. You can
sign them this evening. But I want to just make sure that the applicant's okay with that
or if they'd like another shot to look at that before you actually sign it. So, if you can
give me just a minute.
Rohm: Fair enough.
Hood: Mr. Chair, I did get a chance to talk to the applicant and they would prefer that
those amended findings be approved this evening if the Commission is also agreeable
to doing that. So, what will happen is Bill or the clerk can add that -- I believe it was 1.9
to Exhibit B, just stating the hours of operation shall be limited to -- from 5:00 a.m. to
11:00 p.m. as noted.
Rohm: Okay. Fair enough. All right. With that being said, then, at this time I'd like to
open the -- or I guess do we open --
Baird: Move to approve.
Rohm: Okay. Could I get a motion to approve the Findings of Facts and Conclusions of
Law for CUP 07-015?
Newton-Huckabay: So moved.
O'Brien: Second.
Rohm: It's been moved and seconded to approve the Findings of Fact and Conclusions
of Law for approval of CUP 07-015. All those in favor say aye. Opposed same sign?
Motion carried.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. TWO ABSENT.
Rohm: Thank you, folks, for coming in. And before we adjourn Caleb has some things
that he wanted to discuss with the Commission, so at this time, Caleb, the mike is
yours.

,, Hood: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. For those of you that are here this evening, I just j
wanted to let you know Amanda put in her notice earlier this week, so you will probably
_ - not even see her around. Her last day is going to be next Friday, so we will be -
searching for a new planner. I believe the advertisement has already been posted _
,;~~ through HR. A couple of other things that I did want some input from you three on
anyways are future workshop discussions if we have some more upcoming agendas
that are similar to this one and we have some time and there are some topics of
g .r„ 4:i `.,,
interest, I can recruit some folks to give some presentations. Commissioner Rohm
v~ "„~: ~ .'~ ~' mentioned one or two ideas earlier today when I mentioned it to him that I would like to
!~~ ~ talk to you all about it some more. So, similar to what Diane did here, what, six weeks
ago or whenever she came and gave that presentation. If there is anything else, if you
`{ ~ . ' want to give me either a person that you would like to hear from on a specific topic or '
"'~ `'"~' just a specific topic and I can see if I can hunt someone down to do a 15 or 20, 30
~~. ~ minute presentation either before an agenda or at the end of an agenda or anything like
r that. So, you can think about it, you don't have to give me names now or topics now,
-. ~ " ~ but if you want to think about that, I'd like to make that a fairly regular occurrence if we -
~A ~ ~' have agendas again like tonight that make it worth your time to come out here and have
~~ '` development projects, as well as furthering education experience and just kind of what's -
"~ ~~ going on out there. One of the things I was at actually this week was a CPTED
' > ~ conference, which is Crime Prevention through Environmental Design. There is some
...::
_ ~` concepts to that that I -- I'm not comfortable giving a presentation on, but I know
Lieutenant Bob Stowe has been through the actual CPTED school and may be
r ~ ~ available to give you some of those things. Commissioner O'Brien, your comments this
~~~- k~~~.. =~` evening on the Anytime Fitness, you know, some of those things that they look for in
~H .~.r,.
~;; CPTED are eyes on areas, not creating hiding spots, making the front entrances very
~~
,~~ well defined so people know how to get in the building, you know, not creating -- you .
{' know, trimming up your trees to have a six to nine foot canopy so there aren't hiding :.: "~„
~; places there and your shrubs lower than three feet, things like that to look for in site
t
~~ plans. Security systems are also something that are talked about. California requires
~;~ ~ - certain security systems for different developments and they actually do awalk-through
~:~. „ ~ _ inspection with the police to make sure these systems -- so, that could be a quick
~~ ~ ~ presentation, just -- a lot of it is common sense stuff, quite honestly. They talk about
%' ' - ~ ~ defensible space and things like that and how you can -- you know, just by site design
~:. ~
' can, basically, design out crime. In fact, that's what the Europeans call it is designing
r..` ~ ~j out crime, DOCA is their acronym. But, anyway, so I thought maybe that would be a
" good 15, 20 minute presentation, again, just common sense stuff, but it's things like that
-° _
you can look at an elevation and go, whoa, your door is recessed and someone could _
~' ~: :,
,~ ~` , sneak in there, hide by the door, and put a gun to your head and no one would ever
~,.~: ~~.,., see, because your entrance is so recessed. So, that was just one idea I had. The other
"" _ thing to think about and it may seem like it s a long ways off, but the holidays are
~" ~' s~ coming up. I know I talked to Commissioner Newton-Huckabay here either right around
~.. -~~
~~ " ~~ =' the holidays last time, but our holiday schedule -- right now we are scheduled to have a
_ -. - ~ meeting on November 15th, which is still a week plus away from Thanksgiving. So, that
`y ~ ' ~ ~~ ~ one I didn't think there would be any conflicts. We lucked out because the 1st and the
~. a, 15th are your hearings in November, so I don't think there should be any conflicts there.
~. ,~ ~ ''~

the Tuesday I believe it is. So, I don't know if you -- if we are getting too many that are
talking about going on vacation, you know, Thursday or before Christmas on the -- on a
lowin Tuesda ,let me know and we can either do back to back, if that's what you
fol g Y
~ prefer, or do a meeting on the 6th of December and the 13th of December or work
st cancel the one and try to get everything on
-- or u
t we can

one meeting in December if that's what you want to do. But just, again, something to
.~~~ ~ d to schedule our vacations and time with family and
kind of think about as you get rea y Y
things like that, to remember that. And I guess maybe the other one that may be a
conflict, although it's generally not as big of a conflict -- the first Thursday in January is
on the 3rd. So, I don't know -- again, depending on what you all have planned for
staying in town or being available. Just to throw them out there. So, I'm not changing
anything unless we get conflicts, but if you can look at your calendars and kind of talk
with your families about what you're thinking about doing for vacation time, I'd sure
appreciate it, so we can make sure we have quorums for meetings, so --
F ~ Newton-Huckabay: I do know -- first off, Caleb, thanks for bringing that up early,
~T :.
because I know we hit last year at this time, it was like ah. I will be out of town the first
~ ~~' week of October and the last week of October, so I will likely miss the October -- the first
October meeting and the first November meeting. My travel schedule will wrap up in
the fall generally.
~~,
Hood: And I remember you mentioning that earlier this year, too, so -- but as far as the
holiday ones, you're not -- because the October ones -- we have the cut off this -- the
~ ,,.
15th of this month for the October hearings. So, we will see what we get as far as a
'` ~ cutoff. We may be able to do -- you know, if we only have three or four applications, we
may only need to have one meeting and do it on the first meeting in October, so -- what
you said, you're gone the --did you say the first meeting? I --
~;;;
~', r:
Newton-Huckabay: My PDA broke, so I don't have it with me. But I believe I will e
gone the first week of October and the last -- and, then, I leave like the 30th of October
and I won't be back until like the 4th of November.
~; r,94 Hood: Okay. So, the first meeting in October, the first meeting in November.
~ , k ~ Newton-Huckabay: First meeting in November.
~,.,,, i...:_
Hood: Okay.
~ .., ~ Hood: So, I was more looking at the holidays, but I can definitely write those down, too,
that you're already planning on being gone and if we get conflicts we can either
~'::~ reschedule something in November, like I said, maybe even --
s;
_' ~ Newton-Huckabay: Yeah. I don't anticipate being gone over the holidays myself,

Hood: That was it. And if anyone does, you know, in the next couple of meetings,
anyways, or you can shoot me an a-mail anytime or call me anytime or whatever, if
you're thinking about it, so --
Rohm: You know, back to that -- the earlier subject of presentations, I wouldn't mind
having Shaun Wardle come in and give us his current status on the economic
development. I'd like to hear what he has to say.
Hood: Yeah. And I can let you know the Waltman project that was tonight that was
continued to October 4th or whatever, the last time I talked to him he was planning on
being at that meeting. So, that would be a great opportunity for him to present
something before the Public Hearing and, then, just stay for that -- that item on the
agenda. So, I will ask him if --
Rohm: Perfect.
Hood: -- he can maybe attend that one.
Rohm: That's on this afternoon, so -- I think Shaun will do a real good job in that. Okay.
Could I get a motion to adjourn?
O'Brien: Motion to adjourn.
Rohm: Second. All those in favor say aye.

D. Notice of Applicable Time Limits (as applicable)
1. Notice of Eighteen (18) Month Conditional Use Permit Duration
Please take notice that the conditional use permit, when granted, shall be valid for a
maximum period of eighteen (18) months unless otherwise approved by the City. During
this time, the applicant shall commence the use as permitted in accord with the conditions
of approval, satisfy the requirements set forth in the conditions of approval, and acquire
building permits and commence construction of permanent footings or structures on or in
the ground. For conditional use permits that also require platting, the final plat must be
recorded within this eighteen (18) month period. For projects with multiple phases, the
eighteen (18) month deadline shall apply to the first phase. In the event that the
development is made in successive contiguous segments or multiple phases, such phases
shall be constructed within successive intervals of one (1) year from the original date of
approval. If the successive phases are not submitted within the one (1) year interval, the
conditional approval of the future phases shall be null and void. Upon written request and
filed by the applicant prior to the termination of the period in accord with 11-SB-6.G.1, the
Director may authorize a single extension of the time to commence the use not to exceed
one (1) eighteen (18) month period. Additional time extensions up to eighteen (18) months
as determined and approved by the Commission may be granted. With all extensions, the
Director or Commission may require the conditional use comply with the current
provisions of Meridian City Code, Title 11.
E. Notice of Final Action and Right to Regulatory Takings Analysis
1. The Applicant is hereby notified that pursuant to Idaho Code § 67-8003, a denial of a plat
or conditional use permit entitles the Owner to request a regulatory taking analysis. Such
request must be in writing, and must be filed with the City Clerk not more than twenty-
eight (28) days after the final decision concerning the matter at issue. A request for a
regulatory takings analysis will toll the time period within which a Petition for Judicial
Review maybe filed.

6. LAND USE
a. Existing Land Use(s): Mini-storage and associated office uses
b. Description of Character of Surrounding Area: Residential properties within Ada County,
generally located to the south and east. The property to the east (across Stoddard Road) is in the
development process as Queensland Acres Commercial.
c. Adjacent Land Use and Zoning:
1. North: DBSUWestern Electronics/Intermountain Hospital, zoned I-L

In 2003, the City reviewed an annexation application (AZ-03-002) and a CUP application (CUP-
03-001) for a contractor's yard and amini-storage facility for the subject property. Those
applications were denied by the City Council because the proposed contractor's yard was not
compatible with the surrounding area. Also, the layout of the mini-storage facility was not
consistent with what the City envisioned for this area on the Comprehensive Plan.
In 2004, Lyons Development, LLC, was granted Annexation and Zoning (AZ-04-013), and
Conditional Use Permit (CUP-04-017) approval for a Planned Development on 13.5 acres which
allowed 9mini-storage buildings containing 122,550 square feet of storage space (including 28
boat / RV storage spaces), a 3,200 square-foot office /retail building, a 1,600 square-foot
caretaker's apartment, and an indoor storage building totaling 28,130 square feet. Also approved

w space at the northeast comer of the property. Said 2.5-acre portion has not yet obtained detailed
construction approval.
~ At the time of annexation, the existing apartment /caretakers unit was not principally permitted in
the C-G zone. Because of this, the Applicant requested that the use be approved with the PD /
CUP as an accessory use. Now that the caretaker's unit will be eliminated, all use of the site
conforms to that allowed within a C-G zone. Staff is supportive of the removal of a caretaker's
unit on this site.

`~I 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 "Mixed Use
- Neighborhood." Per Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, the Mixed Use land use category
contains five sub-categories. Generally, the mixed-use designation will provide for 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 following standards apply to the MU-N category: 1) Up to ten (10) acres may be non-residential
uses, and 2) Up to 100,000 square feet ofnon-residential building area is allowed.
Staff fmds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to
the proposed use (Staff analysis in italics):
• Permit new... commercial development only where urban services can be reasonably
provided at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City (Chapter N,
Goal I, Objective A, Action Item 6)
Sanitary sewer and water are currently available to this site. Additionally, all other urban
services are also provided to serve this development.
• Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the Impact Area (Goal I,
Objective B, Chapter VII, Page 109)
Staff believes that the proposed use of the property already contributes to the variety of
commercial uses within the impact area. In addition to the self-storage, the application
a
provides retail /office space.
• Encourage compatible uses to minimise conflicts and maximize use of land (Goal N,
Chapter VII, Page 112)
Staff does, in fact, believe that the proposed uses, if designed, constructed and operated in
accordance with adopted City ordinances, should be harmonious and appropriate in
appearance with the intended character of the vicinity.
The proposed building /use is consistent with the intended character of Queensland Acres to
the east and is harmonious with the existing character of the "Industrial" zone to the north.
The Applicant has provided adequate buffering of the existing and possible future residential
subdivisions to the west.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on any verbal or written testimony that
may be provided at the public hearing when determining if the Applicant's development request is
appropriate for this property.

~' 10. ANALYSIS
y^`
~
a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation:
ti::
CUP: In 2004, Lyons Development, LLC, was granted Annexation and Zoning (AZ-04-013),
and Conditional Use Permit (CUP-04-017) approval for a Planned Development on 13.5 acres
~~A which allowed 9mini-storage buildings containing 122,550 square feet o storage space
^" (including 28 boat / RV storage spaces), a 3,200 square-foot office building, and a 1,600 square-
foot caretakers apartment, and an indoor storage building totaling 28,130 square feet.
~„ 600 s uare- oot caretakeY's apartment, and
It is where said 3,200 square foot office building, 1, q f
28,000 square feet of indoor storage is shown that the Applicant is proposing to develop. As the
new plan proposes approximately 15,600 square feet of primarily office space with parking, this
prompts a modification to the CUP.
~' -'~~ Approximately 3/ of the proposed building will pertain to office uses; the new building will not
~~~~_~
~
only house office space to serve the functions of the storage facility, but will also offer o ice
,;~^ - space for the public to rent, if so desired. Retail uses are ancillary to the storage facility and said
~F"` renters, in that goods provided will include shipping boxes and supplies, shipping and receiving
? ' services, and printing and copying services. Additionally, the building will house conference
~~ space for internal use and for rent; a wireless Internet cafe; and a studio where the public can
;:
photograph merchandise in a professional setting (i.e. for sale on eBay). (See Exhibit B or
', proposed floor plan.)
'-'' Immediatel located to the rear of the proposed building is an small indoor storage facility and
~~, office. The Applicant proposes that these structures will be converted to shipping and receiving
space.
,' The Commission should note that, while not included with the subject application, the previous
CUP also proposed a future plan to construct 27,265 square feet of retail /office space on 2.5
~~
, acres of the site at the southwest corner of Stoddard and Overland (east of the proposed office /
.
,.
~' retail building). Said 2.5-acre portion has not yet obtained detailed construction approval.
~ Access: Access to the site is provided directly from an existing access to/from W. Overland
, ~~,~'~
~" -''~'
Road. This access will be shared with the existing storage facility as well as the future retail area
p;
~ ~
to the east. No new access points are proposed or approved with this application. The
~' ~ Commission should note that ACRD is currently reconstructing Overland Road from Meridian
Road to Linder Road. Overland Road will be constructed as a 5-lane street section with 5-foot
-~ detached concrete sidewalks. Bicycle lanes will be provided on-street, as well.
ki
~~
Parlang: While the Applicant's proposed parking plan is generally consistent with the
,
' aforementioned UDC parking requirements, it is also not consistent with the concept approved
~
, _
';;'r with CUP-04-017, another reason for the modification.

90° stalls at 17 feet deep by 9 feet wide; 5 pazallel pazking stalls at 9 feet deep by 24 feet wide,
with 25-foot drive aisles.
Additionally, UDC 11-3C-6G requires that one bicycle parking space be provided for every 25
vehicle pazking spaces. The Applicant should provide a minimum 2-pazk bicycle rack on this site.
The Commission should note that the parking lot at the west property boundary ezceeds the
length allowed by the Meridian Fire Department without the requirement for a turnaround.
The Applicant should state at the public hearing how this issue is to be resolved and
whether an approved fire-truck turnaround is required on-site.
Landscaping: The Applicant proposes 0.42 acres (24%) of landscaping. The majority of the
landscaping is provided in the form of landscape buffers adjacent to the proposed building.
Staff is generally supportive of the proposed landscape plan prepazed by W & H Pacific, no label,
and dated 6/7/07. The plan shall demonstrate compliance with the following standards:
All landscaping adjacent to Overland Road should conform to the requirements of UDC 11-3B-7.
All landscaping adjacent to residential uses should conform to the requirements of UDC 11-3B-9.
Additionally, all parking lot landscaping should conform to the requirements of UDC 11-3B-8.
Hours of Operation: The proposed hours of operation for the office /retail use aze from 8:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Monday to Saturday, and 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Sunday. Due to the
surrounding land uses, the anticipated low impact of the users on this site, and the configuration
of the building, Staff does not believe that restricting hours is appropriate on this site.
Building Elevations: Elevations of the proposed building were submitted with this application
and aze attached in Exhibit A-3 of this staff report. The Planned Development /CUP approved
future office /retail elevations that were aesthetically similar to the storage building design and
had a barn theme.
The newly proposed elevation, while not similaz to the previously approved elevation, is unique
in its own right. The Applicant seeks to obtain LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design) certification for the building. LEED is a "green building" rating system, developed by the
U.S. Green Building Council ([JSGBC) and provides a suite of strict standazds for
environmentally sustainable construction.
The building will consist of cement boazd panels, comtgated metal, and concrete. The Applicant
may also be providing a green roof on the building, as well as photovoltaic arrays to supplement
the power requirements for the structure. Staff encourages such innovative design and strongly
supports the Applicant's plan fora "green building." Further, Staff does not believe that the
difference in architecture between the existing buildings and the proposed building will be
detrimental to the azea.
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 provisions in the Development
Agreement (see below) aze complied with, Staff will require that the Applicant obtain CZC
approval from the Planning Department prior to site development, where all site and landscaping
improvements must be installed prior to occupancy.
Fencing: The Applicant is not showing any fencing on any of the submitted plans. A detailed
fencing plan should be submitted upon Application of the Certificate of Zoning Compliance. If
permanent fencing is not to be provided, temporary fencing to contain construction debris must
be installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building permit. All fencing should be
installed in accordance with City Code.

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JiJLY 19, 2007
C. Required Findings from the Unified Development Code
The Commission shall base its determination on the Conditional Use Permit request upon the
following:
1. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and meet all the dimensional
and development regulations in the district in which the use is located;
The Commission believes the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use, as the site
was previously approved for similar uses. The Applicant will be required to comply with all
dimensional standards of the UDC prior to issuance of Certificate of Zoning Compliance for the
construction of the office /retail building.
Staff recommends the Commission rely on Staff's analysis and any oral or written public
testimony provided when detPrnLi_ng if this site is large enough to accommodate the proposed
use.
2. That the proposed use will be harmonious with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan and in
accord with the requirements of this Title;
The Commission fmds that the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designation for this
property is Mixed Use -Neighborhood (MU 1~. The property is currently zoned C-G, and had
been previously approved for a storage facility and related uses. The Commission believes that
the proposed office /retail building is consistent with the previous uses that were approved on
this site as part of the Planned Development. (See Sections 8, 9, and 10 above for more
information regarding the requirements for this use.)
3. That the design, construction, operation, and maintenance will be compatible with other
uses in the general neighborhood and with the e~sting or intended character of the general
vicinity and that such use will not adversely change the essential character of the same area;
The Commission fmds that the proposal is consistent with the intended character of Queensland
Acres to the east and is harmonious with the existing character of the "Industrial" zone to the
north. Consideration for adequate buffering of the existing and future residential subdivisions has
been considered.
The Commission fmds that the proposal, if designed, constructed, and operated in accordance
with adopted city ordinances, should be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the
intended character of the vicinity.
4. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval imposed, will not
adversely affect other property in the vicinity;
As noted above, the Commission is recommending that adequate landscape buffers be installed
with this development. This requirement should help mitigate any potentially disturbing aspects
of the proposal from the neighboring properties. The Commission does not anticipate that the
proposed use will be hazardous or disturbing to future or existing neighbors, as long as the
recommended conditions of approval are complied with. Staff recommends the Commission rely
on public testimony to determine whether or not the proposed uses will be disturbing or
hazardous to the existing or future neighboring uses.
5. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services
such as highways, streets, schools, parks, police and fire protection, drainage structures,
refuse disposal, water, and sewer;
The Commission fmds that the site will be adequately served by the public facilities and services.

Access: The Ada County Highway District (ACRD) has approved one access point to the
subject property, a shared, full-access driveway from / to Fairview Avenue, located

constructed on the property to the west.

CITY OF ME
81901000084 and 81901000104, as well. Prior to submittal for a Certificate of Zoning
Compliance for the subject multi-tenant building, dedication of cross-access should be
recorded with the Ada County Recorder.
Parking: The Applicant is proposing to construct 28 parking stalls. Only 16 parking stalls are
required by Ordinance. UDC Table 11-3C-1 requires 90-degree parking stalls to be 19-feet
long by 9 feet wide, adjacent to 25-foot wide drive aisles. UDC 11-3C-SB-4 allows parking
stall dimensions to be reduced by 2 feet in length if 2 feet is added to the width of the adjacent
sidewalk or landscape area. All parking should comply with the standards of the UDC.
DYive-Through Design: Staff is generally supportive of the proposed drive-through
configuration. UDC 11-4-3-11 states that "a site plan shall be submitted that demonstrates safe
~? ~ pedestrian and vehicular access and circulation on the site and between adjacent properties"
At a minimum, the site plan shall demonstrate compliance with the following standards:
• Stacking lanes shall have sufficient capacity to prevent obstruction of the public
right-of--way by patrons;
'!
i r, • The stacking lane shall be a separate lane from the circulation lanes needed for access
and parking;
• The stacking lane shall not be located within ten feet (10') of any residential district
or existing residence;
• Any stacking lane greater than one hundred feet (100') in length shall provide for an
escape lane.
Staff finds that the site plan, as submitted, complies with the drive-thru standards set forth in
UDC 11-4-3.11.
Elevations: The Applicant has submitted elevations for the proposed structure (see Exhibit
A). Staff is generally supportive of the proposed north- and south-facing elevations, prepared
t by Architecture Northwest, dated May 2007. However, the east- and west-facing portion of the
structure will also be highly visible from Fairview Avenue. As proposed, said elevations are
generally blank walls. Staff believes the Applicant should provide, at minimum, either one
4 window on or awning along the east fagade of the building. Staff encourages the
Commission to consider the elevations and determine whether they are acceptable as is, or
whether changes to the design and materials are warranted.
/ ~ ~ Landscaping: The Applicant has proposed approximately 14,775 square feet of landscaping
- including, but not limited to, landscape buffers to adjacent properties, and landscaped stacking
;. .
barriers.
The UDC requires a 25-foot landscape buffer is along Fairview Avenue. The Applicant has
~ also provided planter islands within the parking areas which generally meet the requirements
~ of the UDC. Additionally, the subject application proposes at least ten feet of landscaping
e,r,
~`'`` along the east boundary that is located adjacent to the Idaho Athletic Club property.
~~~i
~:~,
The north portion of the east boundary also abuts a residential district. Per UDC 11-2B-3A, a
25-foot buffer is required between residential and commercial districts. The Applicant has
''-'~ provided in excess of 25 feet of landscaping for said buffer. This buffer should include a mix
~` ~ of evergreen and deciduous trees, which will form a barrier that allows trees to touch at
maturity, shrubs, lawn, and / or other vegetative groundcover.
' s, PYessure IYrigation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems be
supplied by a year-round source of water (UDC 11-3A-15). The Applicant should be required
to utilize any existing surface or well water for the primary source. If a surface or well source
~~ a is not available, asingle-point connection to the culinary water system shall be required. If a

assessments for the common areas prior to signature on the final plat by the City Engineer. An '~
underground, pressurized irrigation system should be installed to all landscape areas per the
approved specifications and in accordance with City Code.

(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

SUBJECT: Kelley Carport Revised
• CUP-07-012
Conditional Use Permit to allow a 200 square foot canvas carport in the O-T
zone by Larry and Judy Kelley.
1. SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT'S REQUEST
The applicants, Larry and Judy Kelley, are requesting Conditional Use Permit (CUP) approval to allow a
200 square foot canvas carport to be located in the street side yard of their property located at 403 East
Second Street. The carport does not comply with the Downtown Design Guidelines, therefore a
Conditional Use Permit is necessary.
A previous Conditional Use Permit (CUP-06-034) on this site was denied on November 16, 2006 by the
Planning and Zoning Commission. At the hearing, the Commission recommended actions the Kelley's
could take that would allow the Commission to approve a carport on this site. Since the previous
Commission hearing, the Kelley's have complied with these recommendations.
Last year the Code Enforcement division of the Police Department received a complaint from one of the
applicant's neighbors regarding the location of the carport. The neighbor expressed concerns that the
~: } carport was located too close to the property line, and positioned in such a way that it blocked a clear line
T of site when exiting the adjacent driveway. A code enforcement officer visited the applicants and
recommended that they speak with the Planning Staff to verify if the carport was allowed. Due to the fact
-~ that canvas carports are not specifically addressed in the UDC, and that the downtown design guidelines
of the O-T district are geared more towards commercial uses, Staff recommended that the applicant apply
for a conditional use permit to allow for the Planning and Zoning Commission to decide on this issue. As
a reference, in all residential districts (R-2, R-4, R-8, R-15 and R-40), one detached accessory building (a
building/structure is defined as anything that is built or constructed) that is less than 200 square feet and
less than 8 feet in height, is allowed in the required rear yard.
,
NOTE: The carport has been in place for a few years and is currently being used to store a vehicle.
It is Staff understands that the applicants did inquire to the City about whether a building permit (or any
other type of approval) would be required, prior to constructing this carport. The Building Department did
not require a building permit at that time, as the structure did not meet the square footage threshold for
requiring a permit. Further, O-T does not have established setbacks, as several different land uses are
principally allowed in O-T.
2. SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION
Below, staff has provided detailed analysis for the requested Conditional Use Permit application. Staff
recommends approval of the subject application, CUP-07-012, for the reasons outlined in the Analysis
and Department Comments sections of this report. The Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission
heard this item on July 19th, 2007 (continued from the June 7th hearing due to imuroper noticing

1. Non-residential square footage: 200 square foot canvas carport
2. Building height: eight feet or greater
_ g. Summary of Proposed Streets and/or Access (private, public, common drive, etc.): Access to
the carport is taken directly form E. Ada Street. There are no sidewalks along this street and
edge of pavement is approximately four feet from the entry to the carport.
7. COMMENTS MEETING
} On May 18, 2007 Planning Staff held an agency comments meeting. The agencies and departments
' present include: 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.
~'
8. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
This property is designated "Old Town" on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Staff finds
the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the proposed
development (staff analysis in italics):
~.,
- Chapter VII, Page 106: Old Town. This includes the historic downtown and the true community center.
Uses would include offices, retail and lodging, theatres, restaurants, and service retail for surrounding
residents and visitors. A variety of residential uses could include reuse of existing buildings for residential
uses, new construction ofmulti-family residential over ground floor retail or office uses. In order to
provide and accommodate preservation of the historical character, specific design requirements maybe
imposed. Pedestrian amenities would be emphasized. Public investment to ensure that Old Town becomes
a centralized activity center with public, cultural, and recreational structures would be encouraged. The
{- boundary of the Old Town district predominantly follows Meridian's historic plat boundaries. In several
'' s' areas, both sides of a street were incorporated into the boundary to encourage similar uses and
complimentary design of the faces of houses and buildings.
k ~ Staff recognizes the importance of the Old Town area as the cultural and historic center of Meridian. The
obvious emphasis on quality design as mentioned in the statement above is an important aspect of the Old
eet in size and there ore does not require a building
~~'sl~ District. The ca ort is less than 200 s uare f .f

permit. Staff believes that this CUP application does not meet the intent or vision of the O-T istrict as
-~•tl' described in the Comprehensive Plan. However, there are some circumstances on the subject property
"~'~ that staff believes warrants approval. Further, staff believes that the intent of Old Town is geared more
ri +c
towards commercial development and re-development of properties. This is not the subject case.
k:
"~ 9. ZONING ORDINANCE
a. Allowed Uses in the Traditional Neighborhood Districts: UDC Table 11-2D-1 lists the
permitted, accessory, and conditional uses in the O-T zoning district. Canvas carports are not
specifically addressed in this table. The Planning Director has determined that the CUP
f process would be best suited for this type of structure and associated use.
b. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the O-T District is to accommodate and
encourage further intensification of the historical city center in accord with the Meridian

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 19, 2007
Comprehensive Plan. The intent of the OT District is to delineate a centralized activity center
and to encourage its renewal, revitalization and growth as the public, quasi-public, cultural,
financial and recreational center of the City. Public and quasi-public uses integrated with
general business, and medium-high to high-density residential is encouraged to provide the
appropriate mix and intensity of activities necessazy to establish a truly urban city center.
c. General Standazds: The majority of standazds that guide development in the O-T zone aze set
forth in the document Downtown Meridian Design Guidelines. This document was primarily
designed for commercial uses in the downtown core. Further design guidelines for residential
uses in the O-T district aze being developed but no specific standazds have been adopted by the
City.
d. Cleaz Vision Triangle: UDC 11-3A-5 describes the measurements of the cleaz vision triangle.
This clear vision azea is designed to ensure the safety of pedestrians and motorists at the
intersections of two public streets or the intersections of a public street and driveway or alley.
This CUP application deals specifically with the intersection of a public street and a driveway.
The clear vision triangle in this situation is measured as follows:
For a public street and driveway or alley, the azea is defined by measuring from the
~' intersection of the edge of travel lane and the corner of the driveway or alley twenty feet (20')
T along the roadway and ten feet (10') along the driveway or alley.
The subject carport encroaches into the required cleaz vision triangle. However, the applicants
have removed the front and first side panels from the carport which now allows a cleazer line
of sight from all angles (Please see photo exhibits A.2).
10. ANALYSIS
a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation
' ~~ Due to the unique nature of this CUP request Staff believes it is important to provide more
detailed background information in this section of the report. As stated eazlier, this carport
has been in place for a couple of yeazs and is used to house a vehicle. At the time the
applicants decided to erect the carport they consulted with the Building Department to see if a
building permit would be required. They were told that a building permit was not required for
a structure of that type and size. Unfortunately, and by no fault of their own, the applicants
never consulted with the Planning Department and went ahead and placed the carport in the
~•_ ~, location shown in Exhibit A.
~~=< The carport recently became an issue when one of the applicant's neighbors made a
I complaint to the Code Enforcement Division of the Police Department about the location of
otential safety hazazd that it created. A code enforcement officer visited the
and
the car
ort
i p
p
,
applicants and informed them of the situation. The applicants were invited to consult with the
Planning Department to determine the best course of action to legitimize the location of the
,; ; carport. Usually in situations such as this Staff is able to refer to the setback requirements for
'' N4j the zoning district, and determine if the structure in question meets those requirements. For
~~~= example, in the R-8 or R-4 residential zoning districts the street side setback to a gazage is 20
fit{
~,~ feet.
Unlike the standazd residential zoning districts described above the O-T zone uses the
document Downtown Meridian Design ('guidelines for the majority of its development
standazds, including setback requirements. Due to the fact that this document was designed
primarily for commercial uses in the downtown core, the setback requirements are intended
for retail storefronts that would abut the sidewalk. These zero lot line setbacks were not
intended to be applied to single family properties. Residential design guidelines for the O-T
~- zone aze being developed but no specific standards have yet been adopted by the city. The

UDC compensates for this (UDC 11-2D-4D) by requiring a conditional use permit for any
applications that do not meet the criteria set forth in the Downtown Meridian Design
Guidelines. Staff determined that the subject canvas carport was cleazly outside of the intent
of the design guidelines and therefore would be required to go through the CUP process.
Through the first CUP (06-034) process, Staff identified various issues and concerns related
to the location of the carport. The Planning and Zoning Commission addressed these issues
and the applicants were directed to take certain actions to bring the carport into compliance.
The applicants have followed the Commission's recommendations and aze submitting their
request for the current CUP-07-012. These issues and the subsequent actions taken to address
them aze outlined in detail below:
Clear Vision Triangle: After careful review, which included a site visit, Staff determined
that the subject carport encroaches into the required clear vision triangle in this azea. One of
the main purposes of the cleaz vision triangle, as described in UDC 11-3A-5, is to ensure that
motorists and pedestrians are able maintain a cleaz line of sight at the intersection of a street
and driveway. As the "Before" photographs in Exhibit A show, the carport is located directly
adjacent to the driveway of the neighboring property to the west. Before, the location of the
carport almost completely blocked a driver's line of sight to the east as he or she exited the
neighboring driveway onto the street. This situation created a hazard for both motorists and
pedestrians traveling along E. Ada Street.
The applicants have now removed the front and first side panels of the carport (see
"After" photographs in Exhibit A). A much clearer view of the street and neighboring
driveway is available now to both motorists and pedestrians.
Encroachment into the right-of--way: Upon consultation with ACHD and a review of
property lines in this area, Staff determined that the carport appeared to encroach into ACRD
right-of--way along E. Ada Street. ACRD informed Staff that a license agreement would be
required to place the carport within ACHD right-of--way.
The applicants have acquired a license agreement from ACRD, #0731-1832-0107 (see
ACRD letter in Exhibit A.3), which allows them to leave and maintain the carport in the
e~sting right-of-way along E. Ada Street.

Design: As mentioned eazlier in this report the UDC and the Downtown Meridian Design
Guidelines do not specifically address canvas carports. The carport structure, as well as many
other residential projects staff reviews, does not meet the Guiding Principles of the
Downtown Meridian Design Guidelines. However, it does allow the Kelley's the opportunity
to pazk and store their caz on the majority of their property. With that said, Staff is concerned
about these types of structures being located adjacent to public streets on this site or in any
area of the city. Typically, Staff believes that semi-permanent canvas and steel structures
such as these should be located out of the public view. However, because this is a corner lot
and there is very little area to construct a "permanent" structure/gazage, Staff is supportive of
allowing the subject carport. This recommendation is not typical, and Staff cannot envision

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 19, 2007
C. Required Findings from Unified Development Code
a CUP Findings:
The Commission shall base its determination on the Conditional Use Permit request upon
the following:
1. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and meet all the
dimensional and development regulations in the district in which the use is located.
The Commission finds that the portion of the site where the carport is located is not large enough
to accommodate the carport structure without encroaching into the right-of--way. However, due to
the location of the existing home and trees, and the property being on a corner lot, there is not a
viable opportunity to construct a carport behind the house (where there is land available for a
structure of this size). The UDC allows properties/uses in Old Town to apply for CUP approval
when all the dimensional and development regulations aze not being met.
2. That the proposed use will be harmonious with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan and
in accord with the requirements of this Title.
Commission finds that the designated Comprehensive Plan Designation for this property is Old
Town. Commission finds that the location of the carport structure is not consistent with the
purposes or intent of the Old Town designation. However, the Commission finds that this use is
appropriate for this site, and this site only, due to unusually circumstances.
C
~~`.I
~;~:
at
3. That the design, construction, operation and maintenance will be compatible with other
uses in the general neighborhood and with the e~sting or intended character of the
general vicinity and that such use will not adversely change the essential character of
the same area.
Commission fmds that the carport structure is generally compatible with neighboring uses.
However, the location of the carport structure, neaz the street, is not ideal. Commission also finds
that the intended character of the Old Town azea would not support such structures typically to be
visible from public streets.
4. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval imposed, will
not adversely affect other property in the vicinity.
A letter was received from the neighbor stating that even with the front and side flaps removed,
the carport creates a visual safety hazard for motorists exiting the adjacent driveway and
motorists driving on E. Ada Street. The letter also states that the structure is non-aesthetically
pleasing from their property. The Commission shall reference any oral or written public
testimony provided regazding this fmding. The Commission believes that by removing the front

Meridian Fire Department, Police Department, Parks Department, Sanitary Services Corporation
and ACRD.
6. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional costs for public facilities and
services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community.
The Commission fmds there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost and that
the proposed use will not be detrimental to the community's economic welfare.
7. That the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials, equipment and
conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general
welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors.
The Commission does not anticipate the proposed use will create excessive noise, smoke, fumes,
glare, or odors. The Commission fmds that the proposed use maybe detrimental to people,
property or the general welfare of the area due to the potential danger to pedestrians and motorists
caused by the placement of the carport within the clear vision triangle. The Commission shall rely
i upon any oral or written public testimony provided to determine this fording. ''
;' 8. That the proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural,
scenic or historic feature considered to be of major importance.
The Commission fmds that the proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of
any natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance.

8. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the subject property as `Office'. In
'' Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, `Office' areas are anticipated to provide opportunities for low-
' impact business areas. Uses would include offices, technology and resource centers; ancillary
f
commercial uses may be considered (particularly within research and development centers o
€~ ;' technological parks).
Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the
s;' ."
y proposed development (staff analysis in italics):
• "Permit new ...commercial development only where urban services can be reasonably provided
at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, Goal I,
>< ~ Objective A, Action item 6)
The subject site can be serviced by the City of Meridian's sanitary sewer and water systems, and
~~ •`~_; ~ all other urban services.
"Require all commercial businesses to install and maintain landscaping." (Chapter V, Goal III,
~, ': Objective D, Action 5)
r Staff is conditioning approval of the subject CUP upon the applicant installing and maintaining
~ n 10 or more in ormation on
landscaping on this site. Refer to the CUP Analysis, Sectro f .f
"° landscaping at this site.
"Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the Impact Area." (Chapter VII,
'~ Goal 1, Objective B)
,¢
~°
Staff believes that the proposed use will be a benefit to the surrounding residential communities
'r° in the area.
Staff believes that the proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the previously
_ approved applications for this site. 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 Uses in Commercial Districts: UDC Table 11-2B-2 lists the permitted, accessory, and
F: , `_~ conditional uses in the L-O zoning district. Indoor Recreational Facilities require a conditional
use permit in the L-O zoning district.
~'± 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
` '°R the district in proximity to streets and highways.

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF AUGUST 2, 2007
c. General Standazds: No dimensional modifications are being requested for the proposed
development; full compliance with the UDC is required.
10. ANALYSIS
a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: Staff is generally supportive of the
±' ~ proposed site design as presented in the CUP site plan, labeled Sheet 1 and dated May 11, 2007,
and the landscaping as proposed, with the following comments:
Use: As mentioned earlier in this report, procurement of a CUP is required for the proposed use
on this site. In approving CUP's, UDC 11-5-6C allows the decision making body to prescribe
appropriate conditions, bonds, and safeguards that minimize adverse impacts on other property,
control the duration of the use, require more restrictive standazds than those generally required,
and assure that the use and property is maintained properly. There aze residential uses neazby the
subject property, and the applicant is proposing to operate a 24 hour facility. Due to this property
being located right on the comer of Ustick/Meridian, staff does not believe the proposed use on
this site should have a negative impact on any property in the area. Therefore, all of the
conditions regarding this site aze "standazd" UDC requirements; no site specific conditions have
been included. Staff recommends that the Commission rely on any public testimony that may be
;z provided regarding the compatibility of this use with the other uses in the azea.
` Access: Primary access to the subject site will be from three access points. The northern access
to the subject site will be from Meridian Road and eastern access from Ustick Road, across other
lots in the development. There is also interconnectivity from the existing residential
neighborhood to the east of the subject property (Sundance Subdivision No. 3). There is an
existing cross-access easement for all of the office lots in Sundance to shaze drive aisles and
access to/from the adjacent public streets. Staff is generally supportive of the access points and
pazking lot design and the applicant appeazs to be in compliance with the conditions set forth in
x:;51 the previously approved final plat.
'''"~ Parldng: A site visit by staff has verified the 15 parking stalls have been constructed on the
°
subject site. Only 10 parking stalls aze required by Ordinance. UDC 11-3C-SA requires 90
'
s
parking stalls to be 19 feet deep by 9 feet wide, adjacent 25-foot drive aisles. The Applicant
erall consistent with the aforementioned UDC parking
en
kin lan is
az
proposed p g p g Y
l
ements. Additionall UDC 11-3C-6G requires that one bicycle parking space be provided
uu'
re Y~
q
=~s .
for every 25 vehicle parking spaces or a portion there of. Provide a mimmum 1-park bicycle rack
