We have reviewed this submittal and offer the following comments. These comments shall be
considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council:
APPLICA nON SUMMARY & HISTORY
The applicant, Cherry Lane Christian Church, has requested Annexation and Zoning (AZ) approval
0 f 3 9 .47 acres from RUT (Ada County) to C- N (N eighborhood Commercial). The subj ect property is
located on the northwest comer ofTen-Mile Road and Franklin Road. Currently, the site is zoned
RUT in Ada County and is Vacant.
Approval of the subject AZ application would allow the applicant to obtain a zoning for a
church/private school. According to current City Code, churches are principally permitted in the
proposed C- N zone (MCC-11-8-l) and private schools are conditionally permitted. The Mixed Use
Regional designation will require a detailed Planned Development be filed prior to development.
The applicant has submitted a conceptual site plan of how this site may be developed with the
church/school and associated parking. The applicant states, in the submittal letter, that the subject
property makes a good site for a church development because of the frontage on two arterial streets,
the relation the property has to adjacent properties and easy access to the site for patrons coming
from surrounding areas (see the applicant's submittal letter).
On the submitted conceptual plans, the applicant has depicted a full access point on Ten Mile
Road, two right in-right out accesses on Franklin Road, a full access point on Franklin Road
and a shared access at the mid section point for potential future signalization. ACHD has
requested a full traffic study to be approved for the location prior to detailed approvals being
issued, either Certificate of Zoning Compliance or Conditional Use Permit. Please see
Finding" J" and Special Consideration #1 below for detailed analysis of vehicular access to the
subject site.

The site is located in the Mixed Use Regional Designation. The applicant is proposing a limited mix
in the conceptual design, however due to the scale of the project a wide mix of uses may not be
practical at this site. See Annexation & Zoning Analysis "A" below for detailed analysis of the
requested zone and its relationship to the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff is recommending approval of the subject annexation request to C-N, with a requirement jor a
development agreement as outlined in this report.
LOCA nON
The subject site is located on the southwest comer of Franklin Road and Ten.Mile Road, within
Section 10, Township 3 North, Range 1 West.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
North: Avest Stor-it Outdoor storage, zoned C-G
South: Vacant agriculture, zoned RUT (Ada County).
East: Vacant agriculture, zoned RUT (Ada County).
West: Proposed Multi family Residential, zoned RUT (Ada County) proposed zoning R-15
The properties directly to the north (A vest) and west (multifamily) are designated Mixed Use and
High Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The properties to the
east and south are both designated Mixed Use Regional on the Future Land Use Map.
Stor-it, to the north of this site, is currently being improved for outdoor storage west of the Ten-Mile
Creek. The multifamily proposal to the west is currently vacant. Staff anticipates that the properties
surrounding the site, will soon redevelop with higher residential densities and as a mixed use
regional center when the Ten-Mile Interchange is active (2009 anticipated).
CURRENT OWNERS OF RECORD
Cherry Lane Christian Church is the current property owner and Larry Woodard, Manager, has
submitted notarized consent for Steve Pardew ofBRS Architects to submit the subject applications.
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to Zoning Amendments, both
the P&Z Commission and Council are required "to review the particular facts and circumstances
of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the following standards and shall find adequate
evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff:
A.
Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive
Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a Comprehensive Plan
AZ-O5-024
Cheuy Lane Christian Church.AZ.doc
Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council

Page 3
amendment;
Staff finds that the requested Neighborhood Commercial (C-N) zoning designation is in
accord with the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map, which delineates the subject
property as "Mixed Use-Regional". Meridian City Code (MCC) 11- 7-2.H. states the purpose
of the C-N district is "to permit small scale convenience business uses which are intended to
meet the daily needs of the residents in the immediate neighborhood. .. . and shall not
constitute all or any part of a strip development concept." The following Comprehensive
Plan policies also support the annexation and proposed Church! Private School use:
.
"Permit new. . .commercial developments only where urban services can be
reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is
contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, pg. 26, Goal I, Obj. A, #6)
Municipal water, solid waste and other services exist to this area of
Meridian.
.
"Require all new parking lots to provide landscaping in internal islands."
(Chapter V, pg. 43, Goal III, Obj. D, #3)
The Site Plan submitted with the annexation application for this property is
conceptual in nature; the parking lot will be addressed through the submittal
of the planned development and shall show internal planters, as required.
.
"Locate new community commercial areas on arterials. . .near residential
areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining residential areas."
(Chapter VII, pg. 43, Goal III, Obj. D, #3)
The proposed commercial use is located at the intersection of two minor
arterial roadways. A 25-footwide street buffer is shown along Ten Mile Road
and Franklin Road, designed in part to mitigate potential negative impacts
upon the vehicular traffic on arterial roads. There are several major
residential developments occurring in the area to which the proposal will
provide service.
.
"Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets."
(Chapter VII, pg. 107, Goal IV, Obj. D, #2)
ACHD is requiring the applicant to submit a detailed traffic study for the
site. The curb cuts and access points are consistent with other proposals of
this size and nature. However, these will be approved with the filing of a
detailed Planned Development and full review by ACHD.
Chapter VI C.2 P7l - Multiuse pathways: Pathways that encourage use by bicyclists and
pedestrians can decrease road congestion and add to the community's quality of life. The
proposed off-street and multiuse pathway systems are depicted in Figures VI-3 and VI-4.
New and existing developments should ensure that the guidelines laid out in this plan are
AZ-05~024
Cheuy Lane Christian Church.AZ,doc
Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council
June 16,2005 (Hearing Date)

adopted.
With the design of the conceptual plan the applicant has included multiuse pathways in this
development. The Comprehensive Plan indicates in Figures VI -3 and VI-4 the locations of
pathways along the Ridenbaugh Canal, Eight Mile Creek, and Ten-Mile Creek.
B.
Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the future;
Concurrent with the annexation and zoning application, the applicant has submitted a
conceptual site plan. The site plans depicts several buildings on this property with 1) a
main building to seat 4,500 patrons and several classrooms and 2) a school with a
gymnasium and an administration building. The site plan also shows a recreation field
and multiuse pathway system along the Ten Mile Creek. Staff does not anticipate that the
applicant plans to rezone the subject property in the future if the subject
annexation/zoning is approved, as the anticipated Church! Private School uses will be
conditionally allowed in the requested C-N zone. Please see Finding "C".
c. .
Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a residential area
turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use permits;
Staff finds that School/ Private Schools would be Conditional uses within the requested
C-N zone. As mentioned above, however, there is no detailed development plan proposed
at this time, but a Planned Development must be submitted in compliance with the
Mixed-Use Regional Designation.
D.
Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that the
area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new railroad
access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed in a fashion
similar to the proposed rezone area;
Staff finds that the recent annexation and zoning ofStor-It, Castlebrook Subdivision, and the
recent proposal of Silver Oaks Subdivision (multifamily) directly west of this site, dictates
that the subject property be similarly zoned and developed. The streets adjacent to this site
have not been widened recently, and neither Franklin Road nor Ten Mile Road roadway
improvements abutting this site are in the current ACHD Five-Year Work Program. Franklin
Road from Ten-Mile to Black Cat is in the planned development phase for improvement.
E.
Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character
of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the essential character of
the same area;
AZ-05-024
Cheny Lane Christian Chnrch,AZ.doc
Planning & Zoning CommissionJMayor & City Council
June 16,2005 (Hearing Date)
Page 5
The applicant will be required to construct, operate and maintain the future buildings in
accordance with City Code. Although this area was intended for residential and
commercial uses when the 2002 Comprehensive Plan was adopted, staff finds that the
size and number of uses is consistent with the comprehensive plan at this location. Staff
finds that the design of the submitted conceptual layouts for school/office/church
buildings could be harmonious with the adjacent properties if cross-access is provided to
the parcel to the west (multifamily). Staff further finds that the proposed uses will change
the existing character of the area, but that the proposed zone and future usee s) should be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the character of the overall area. Staff
finds that any future 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.
F.
Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Commercial (school/church) vehicular access to this site could cause a potential
disturbance/hazard to existing and/or future uses. The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land
Use Map designates the properties to the west as multifamily, and to the south and east as
Mixed Use Regional. The Commission and Council should rely on public testimony to
determine whether the proposed C- N zoning will be disturbing or hazardous to the
neighboring uses.
Staff finds that the use of this site for Church/School type uses should not be hazardous or
disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the applicant enters into a
development agreement with the City and all development and landscaping ordinances
are exercised. In addition to staffs analysis, the Commission and Council should rely on
public testimony to determine whether or not the potential disturbance of allowing a
commercial access int%ut of this site will substantially affect the existing or future
neighboring uses.
G.
Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as
highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal,
water, sewer or that the person responsible for the establishment of proposed zoning
amendment shall be able to provide adequately any of such services;
Sanitary sewer is currently not available to this site. This site is master planned for the
sewer to drain to the Black Cat lift station via extensions of mains through Castlebrook,
Chesterfield and the proposed Silver Oaks to the west. Water mains are readily available
in Ten-Mile Road, and Franklin Road.

Page 6
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay any applicable park
and highway impact fees as well as construct on-site storm water drainage facilities.
On May 27, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. Based on the joint
agency/department meeting and other comments received from agencies/departments,
staff finds that the public services listed above can be made available to accommodate the
proposed development. However, the joint agency review was based on the conceptual
plan, the Planned Development shall require detailed review. The Commission and
Council should reference any written and/or verbal testimony submitted by any public
service provider, regarding their ability to adequately service this project.
H.
Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities
and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local street
(driveway) infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. Other
required site improvements will be funded and constructed by the developer through the
CZC/Planned Development approval process. The primary public costs to serve the future
uses will be fire and police facilities and services. Staff finds there will not be excessive
additional requirements at public cost and that the proposed zoning and subsequent
development will not be detrimental to the community's economic welfare.
I.
Will the proposed uses not involve uses, activities, 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;
Staff finds that any future uses on this site will generate additional traffic on adjacent
roadways above and beyond the existing residences. The level of impact will depend upon
the type of future use(s) and the square footage of the buildings. Staff recognizes that traffic
and noise will increase with the approval oftms development; however, do to the large size
of the site and number of proposed accesses, staff does not believe that the amount generated
will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Traffic will further be reviewed and
accommodated by ACHD review of the detailed traffic study.
The purpose ofthe C-N zone is to "to permit small scale convenience business uses
which are intended to meet the daily needs of the residents in the immediate
neighborhood. .. . and shall not constitute all or any part of a strip development concept."
(MCCll- 7-2.H) As such, staff does not anticipate future uses will create smoke, fumes,
glare, or odors that will be detrimental to the general welfare of persons or property in the
area. Staff does not anticipate the proposed annexation and subsequent use(s) will create
AZ-O5-024

Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council
June 16,2005 (Hearing Date)
Page 7
excessive noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors. Staff finds that the proposed Church/
Private School uses should not be detrimental to people, property or the general welfare
ofthe area.
MCC 11-16-4 provides the P &Z Commission and City Council the authority to require a
property owner to enter into a Development Agreement with the City of Meridian that may
require some written commitment for all future uses to more fully comply with this finding.
Due to the close proximity of existing and future residential uses, the scale of the project, and
relation to neighboring uses, staff believes that a Development Agreement is necessary to
ensure that the purpose of the C-N zone is maintained. Please see Annexation & Zoning
Facts and Comments below.
J.
Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed
as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public streets;
This parcel has a large amount of frontage on both Franklin Road and limited frontage on
Ten-Mile Road. The applicant is conceptually proposing four driveway approaches to
Franklin Road: a shared access at the mid section (for possible future signalization), two
right in and right out accesses, and a full access at approximately the Yí section line.
ACHD considers access points in their analysis of development applications and has
requested a detailed traffic study. Staff believes that these locations will provide adequate
access, but it may be restricted based upon the detailed traffic study. To help future traffic
flows in this area, staff believes that cross access between the subject property and the
property to the west and north should be provided. If cross access is provided from the
west and north, patrons of the church/school, storage facility, and multifamily
development can access Franklin Road at the Y2 section line, also to be cost shared with
the property to the west. Staff believes that the proposed uses (and access) should not be
hazardous to neighboring uses or traffic flows, but development should be restricted until
ACHD has had adequate time to review a traffic study. The Commission and Council
should rely on public testimony, ACHD staff, and City staffs analysis when determining
whether or not a vehicular approach to Franklin Road will interfere with traffic on
surrounding public streets. See Special Consideration #1 below for more analysis.
K.
Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature of
major importance; and
Staff is unaware of any natural of scenic features of major importance on this site and
finds that no natural or scenic features of major importance will be lost or damaged by
approving the annexation and zoning application. Any existing trees larger than 4" caliper
that are removed shall be mitigated for, per the Landscape Ordinance.
L.
Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of Meridian. (Ord.

The legal description submitted with the application, prepared by Stephen Lee PLS of
Pinnacle Engineers, Inc., shows that the property is contiguous to the existing corporate
boundary of the City of Meridian. The land directly north, and northeast of the subject
property have previously been annexed into the City and this is a logical expansion of the
City boundary. The applicant is proposing to develop the land in substantial compliance with
the City's Comprehensive Plan. In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that
the annexation/zoning ofthis property would be in the best interest ofthe City. NOTE: Staff
has included Development Agreement stipulations for annexation and zoning ofthis property
below.
SPECIAL CONSIDERA nONS (ANNEXA nON & ZONING)
1. Access: Limiting vehicular access to this property is essential to maintaining traffic flow on
Franklin Road during peak hours. ACHD policy requires right-in/right -out driveways located
on arterial roadways to be constructed a minimum of 150 feet from a stop controlled
intersection; 220 feet is required for a full access driveway. Although this property has
sufficient frontage to meet the District's policy, there is need and a request by ACHD for a
detailed traffic study prior to development. When the Franklin/Ten mile intersection is
signalized, or if safety of any accesses should become an issue, the ACHD may restrict the
access to right -in/right-out only for all access points. The final locations of points of access
will be detennined at a later date, during detailed approval through the Planned Development
process.
Because only one access to the public roadway system is being proposed for this property to
the west of the site, staff recommends that cross access be provided to the site to the west.
The idea with providing cross access to the multifamily development is that when the church
expands and/or redevelops, cross access will be reciprocated to the proposed multifamily
development. If cross access is provided then patrons of the church can access Franklin Road
at a signalized intersection without having to cross traffic lanes on Franklin Road to exit the
site. See Annexation & Zoning Facts and Comments #2 below.
Landscauing: Franklin Road and Ten mile Road are classified arterial roadways. A 25-
foot wide landscape buffer is cunently required adjacent to arterial roadways (MCC 12-
13-10-4). Landscape buffers along Meridian Road and Ustick Road will be required by
the City with CZC/Planned Development approval.
Ifthe subject annexation and zoning application is approved, C-N property will be adjacent
to rural residential properties zoned RUT in Ada County and an outdoor storage facility. To
buffer the existing land uses to the south and west from future commercial office uses on this
site, landscape buffers along the perimeter ofthe site should be installed when a CZC/Plat is
approved (see MCC 12-13-12).

through Castlebrook Subdivision, Chesterfield Subdivision, and the proposed Silver Oaks
Subdivision to the west. The applicant shall be responsible to design and install sewer
mains to and through this proposed development, coordinate main size and routing with
the City of Meridian Public Works Department. Water is readily available in Ten-Mile
Road and Franklin Road. The applicant shall be responsible to design and install water
main to and through this development, coordinate main sizing and routing with City of
Meridian Public Works. The applicant shall execute City of Meridian standard forms of
easements for any mains that are required to provide service.

B.
Findings for Consideration
1.
Traffic Impact Study Findings
A traffic impact study was prepared by Pat Dobie, Dobie Engineering, Inc., for a 205,OOO-square foot
church facility, with full build-out expected by 2010. .
.:. The FranklinITen Mile intersection currently operates at a Level of Service (LOS) F.
.:. The FranklinITen Mile intersection is projected to operate at a LOS C when the intersection is
signalized and improved to 5-lanes on all legs.
.:. The current Ten Mile Road traffic volumes exceed the 2010 COMPASS projections. '
.:. A separate left-turn lane should be constructed for the main accesses to the site on Franklin
Road, to provide for 100-feet of stacking.
.:. A continuous right-turn lane should be constructed on Franklin Road.
.:. Both a left-turn and right-turn lane will be needed at the proposed site access to Ten Mile
Road to accommodate the projected turning traffic.
2.
Franklin Road & Ten Mile Road Right-at-Way
District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on arterial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way
allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot concrete detached sidewalks
and bike lanes.
. The applicant should dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Franklin Road and
Ten Mile Road.
. Additional right-of-way will be acquired at the intersections to provide tor turning lanes.
Dedicate right-ot-way on Franklin Road and Ten Mile Road to total 60-teet at the intersection,
tapering to 48-feet north and west of the intersection. Coordinate the taper lengths with
District staff.
. Dedicate a right-of-way triangle at the Ten Mile Road/Franklin Road intersection. Coordinate
the dimensions with District staff.
. The District can purchase all rights-of-way utilizing corridor preservation funds.
3.
Franklin Road & Ten Mile Road Sidewalk
District policy requires 5-foot wide (minimum) concrete sidewalk on all arterial roadways (7204.6.5).
Both roadways are in the District's Five Year Work Program and sidewalk will be constructed with the
widening projects.
3
.:. For subsequent driveways located beyond the intersection, District policy 72-F5, requires
driveways located on arterial roadways with a speed limit of 35 to align or offset a minimum of
150-feet from any existing or proposed driveways.
Applicant Proposal
The applicant is proposing to construct four access points on Ten Mile Road, located:
.:. 130-feet south of the north property line as shared access with Meridian well site
(park/recreation access)
.:. 150-feet south of the well site for a parking lot driveway (park/recreation access)
.:. 150-feet south of parking lot driveway (maintenance shop and existing hoùse)
.:. 318-feet north of Franklin Road just south of Ten Mile Creek ("main entrance")
Staff Analysis & Recommendation '
The proposed access points north of Ten Mile Creek are located in conformance with District policy.
The southerly main entrance driveway is located to meet the 315-foot offset requirement for minor
arterials. However, if the Ten Mile interchange is constructed, this roadway may function more like a
principal arterial, similar to Eagle Road. Also, the traffic impact study estimates that the site will
generate 7,325 vpd (on Sundays). This driveway will likely exceed 1,000 vpd, another criteria that
must be met for the 315-foot offset. '
The applicant is proposing to construct four driveways on Ten Mile Road, exceeding what is allowed
by policy; however, the northerly driveway is a shared approach that will be used for the City of
Meridian well site (minimal vehicle trips) and as an access to the recreation parking lot. Staff
recommends approval of the four driveways on Ten Mile Road,located as proposed.
6.
General Driveway Requirements
District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes over 1,000 vehicles
to a maximum width of 36-feet. .
7.
Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked
onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, the applicant should be required to
pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the
roadway and install pavement tapers with 15-foot radii abutting the existing roadway edge.
Roadway at West Property Line
On June 8, 2005, the ACHD Commission reviewed and approved Silver Oaks Subdivision, located
directly west of this site. That applicant is constructing a north-south public roadway along the shared
property line. This applicant is required to complete the roadway section to a 40-foot street section
with vertical curb, gutter and 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk. It is also the applicant's responsibility to
construct a turnaround at the terminus of the public roadway. Construct the turnaround to provide a
minimum turning radius of 55-feet.
Access can be taken from this roadway. Policy requires driveways on local public roads to be located
a minimum of 50-feet from any public street intersection. Due to possible stacking at Franklin Road,
staff recommends a minimum 100-foot offsetfor the first driveway north of Franklin Road. All other
driveways should be located to align or offset any public street a minimum of 50-feet.
8.
Turn Lane Requirements
The submitted traffic impact study recommends the construction of left turn lanes and right-turn
auxiliary lanes on both Ten Mile Road and Franklin Road at the main site access points.
Ten Mile Road
The Ten Mile Road lanes will be accommodated with the widening project being constructed by
ACHD, and the applicant need not make improvements on that roadway.
5
Franklin Road
The applicant should construct all necessary turn lanes on Franklin Road, as identified by the traffic
impact study. District policy 3004.1, 72-F8,.AASHTO guidelines and the MUTCD guidelines require
the turn lane to be constructed to provide a minimum of 1 DO-feet of storage with shadow tapers for
both the approach and departure directions. Coordinate the design of the turn lane with Districtstaff.
District policy 3004.1 and AASHTO Guidelines require tapers to be constructed on a varying basis
contingent upon the posted speed limit. Coordinate the design of the taper with District staff.
. Based on the submitted traffic impact study, the site will require the construction of a center
turn lane at the main access points, including the intersection of the public roadway at Franklin
Road. The applicant should construct the center turn lane to provide a minimum of1 DO-feet of
storage with shadow tapers for both the approach and departure directions: Coordinate the
design of the turn lane with District staff.
. Based on the submitted traffic impact study, the site will require the construction of a
westbound right-hand turn lane at the intersection of the public roadway and Franklin Road.
Coordinate the design of the taper with District staff.
**Because the proposed church use will be phased, turn lanes are not required until actually
warranted. Prior to submitting for a building permit, the applicant should provide documentation from
a traffic engineer indicating when warrants will be met.
c. If the rezone is approved and the District receives a development
proposal, the District intends to provide the following requirements.
1.
Dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of Franklin Road and Ten Mile Road. Dedicate
right-of-way on Franklin Road and Ten Mile Road to total 50-feet at the intersection, tapering to 48-,
feet north and west of the intersection. Coordinate the taper lengths with District staff. .
2.
Dedicate a right-of-way triangle at the Ten Mile Road/Franklin Road intersection. Coordinate the
dimensions with District staff.
3.
provide a road trust deposit in the amount of $21,400 for the cost of the sidewalk abutting the site on
Ten Mile Road.
4.
Construct a 5.foot wide concrete sidewalk on Franklin Road abutting the site located no closer than
53-feet from the centerline of the roadway at the intersection, tapering to a location no closer than 41.
feet from centerline.
5.

I .
Construct a full access driveway on Ten Mile Road located 318-feet north of Franklin Road just south
of Ten Mile Creek, as proposed. Due to its close proximity to a signalized intersection, this driveway
may be restricted to right-in/right-out in the future, by ACHD.
Construct the roadway at the west property line to complete the 40-foot street section, with vertical
curb, gutter and 5~foot wide concrete sidewalk. Dedicate the necessary right-of-way to accommodate
all of the improvements.
15.
16.
17.
Construct a turnaround at the terminus of the public roadway and dedicate the right-of-way to
accommodate the improvements. Construct the turnaround to provide a minimum turning radius of
55-feet.
18.
Access can be taken from the proposed north-south roadway. Policy requires driveways on local
public roads to be located a minimum of 50-feet from any public street intersection. Due to possible
stacking at Franklin Road, staff recommends a minimum 100-foot offset for the first driveway north of
Franklin Road. All other driveways should be located to align or offset any public street a minimum of
