Listed below are some of the findings for consideration that the District may identify when it reviews a future development application. The District may add additional findings for consideration when it reviews a specific redevelopment application. 1. Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan The Ten Mile Area Plan is a comprehensive plan supplement by the City of Meridian to determine future land use designations and roadway alignments within the Ten Mile Interchange Area in order to preserve the performance of the transportation system and develop a future that represents community goals and expectations. 3 MAZ-09-008 2. Traffic Impact Study Requirement for a Traffic Impact Study: District policy 7106.1 states that a traffic impact study will be required if a proposed development contains more than 100 dwelling units; more than 30,000 square feet of commercial use; or more than 50,000 square feet of industrial or institutional use. Staff CommentlRecommendation: The District has not yet received the required traffic impact study for this development. It is the District's understanding that the scheduled Meridian Planning and Zoning meeting may move forward prior to the Highway District receiving and commenting on the traffic study. Therefore, staff is submitting preliminary comments based on the conceptual site plan for the City's consideration of the annexation and zoning application. Additional comments and recommendations will be provided once the District has received the traffic impact study. Also, some of the submitted comments may be altered depending on the findings and recommendations of the traffic impact study. The applicant will be required to submit a traffic study with any subsequent development application. The applicant should coordinate with District staff for the scoping of the study. 3. Internal Streets Right-of-Way Policy: District policy 7204.4.1 and Figure 72-F1A requires 50-feet of right-of-way on local streets. This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 2-lane roadway with curb, gutter and 5-foot wide concrete sidewalks. Local Street Section Policy: District policy 7204.4.2 states, "developments with any buildable lot that is less that 1-acre in size will typically provide streets having a minimum pavement width of 32-feet with curb, gutter and sidewalks. The total street width shall be 36-feet from back-of- curb to back-of-curb. Variations of this width may be allowed, depending on traffic volumes forecast to be generated by the development. Concrete sidewalks shall be a minimum of 5-feet in width unless they are separated from the curb 5-feet or more in which case the sidewalk shall be a minimum of 4-feet in width. Collector Street Section Policy: District policy 72-F1 B requires collector roadways to be constructed as 46-foot street sections with vertical curb, gutter, and 5-foot detached (or 7-foot attached) concrete sidewalks within 70-feet of right-of-way. This street section allows for the construction of a 3-lane roadway with bike lanes. Applicant Proposal: The applicant is proposing to use street sections outlined in the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan: • Street Section C is a major collector street consisting of a 35-foot street section (back of curb to back of curb) with vertical curb and gutter, planter strips, and detached sidewalk. This street section allows for an 11-foot travel lane and 6-foot bike lane in each direction. • Street Section D is a residential collector street consisting of a 51-foot street section (back of curb to back of curb) with vertical curb and gutter, planter strips, and detached sidewalk. This street section allows for an 11-foot travel lane, a 6-foot bike lane, and an 8-foot parallel parking lane in each direction. Street Section E is a minor collector/commercial street consisting of a 71-foot street section (back of curb to back of curb) with vertical curb and gutter, and wide attached sidewalks with tree wells. This street section allows for an 11-foot travel lane, a 6-foot bike lane, and an 18-foot parking lane in each direction. Staff Comment/Recommendation: Subject to the ultimate roadway classifications and adjacent land uses, District staff is supportive of the applicant's proposal to construct internal streets in accordance with street sections set forth in the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan. District staff is concerned with the submitted site plan, which does not appear to comply with the Ten Mile 4 MAZ-09-008 Interchange Specific Area Plan guidelines for continuous collector streets and roundabout control at major intersections. 4. Private Roads Private Road Policy: According to District policy 7205.6, other jurisdictions in Ada County establish the requirements for private streets. The District retains authority and will review the proposed intersection of a private and public street for compliance with District intersection policies and standards. Applicant's Proposal: It is unclear whether the applicant is proposing any private roads at this time. Staff Comment/Recommendation: If the applicant proposes to construct and private roads, and the City of Meridian approves them, the applicant shall be required to pave the private roadways a minimum of 20 to 24-feet wide and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of public street and install pavement tapers with 15-foot curb radii abutting the existing roadway edge. Street name and stop signs are required for private roads. The signs may be ordered through the District. Verification of the correct, approved name of the roads is required. ACHD does not make any assurances that any of the private roads will be accepted as a public road if such a request is made in the future. Substantial redesign and reconstruction costs may be necessary in order to qualify a road for public ownership and maintenance. The following requirements must be met if the applicant wishes to dedicate the roadway to ACHD: • Dedicate a minimum of 50-feet of right-of-way for the road. • Construct the roadway to the minimum ACRD requirements. • Construct a stub street to the surrounding parcels. 5. Stub Streets Stub Street Policy: District policy 7203.5.1 states that the street design in a proposed development shall cause no undue hardship to adjoining property. An adequate and convenient access to adjoining property for use in future development may be required. If a street ends at the development boundary, it shall meet the requirements of sub section 7205, "non-continuous streets." District policy 7205.5 states that stub streets will be required to provide intra- neighborhood circulation or to provide access to adjoining properties. Stub streets will conform with the requirements described in Section 7204.5, 7204.6 and 7204.7, except a temporary cul- de-sac will not be required if the stub street has a length no greater than 150-feet. A sign shall be installed at the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE." Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is tentatively proposing to construct a total of seven stub streets to adjacent properties: two stubs to the east property line, two stubs to the north/east property lines, one stub to the north property line, one stub to the northwest corner, and one stub to the west property line. Staff Comment/Recommendation: The Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan proposed roadway network shows seven stub streets to this property: two stubs to the east property line, two stubs to the north/east property lines, no stubs to the north property line, one stub to the northwest corner, and two stubs to the west property line. All but the southern stub to the west property line are shown as collector streets in the Plan. Baraya Subdivision, located immediately north and west of the site, was required to provide stub streets to the site at the following locations: • Capitol Reef Drive, a residential collector street, to the site's west property line approximately 150-feet south of the site's north property line. 5 MAZ-09-008 • Sunset Point Court, a local street, to the site's north property line approximately 1,150-feet east of the site's west property line. The applicant will be required to extend into the site any stub streets that were required to be to be constructed to the site's property lines with previous development approvals of adjacent properties. This requirement includes the two stub streets to be extended to the site through Baraya Subdivision. In addition to previously required stub streets, the applicant will be required to provide connectivity to the east and west in accordance with District policy and the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan. A sign shall be installed at the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE." 6. Roundabouts Roundabout Policy: The roundabout should be designed with 21-foot street sections on either side of the center island. The applicant will be required to dedicate sufficient right-of-way on either side of an island. Coordinate the size and design of the roundabout with traffic services staff. Roadway Offset Policy: District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 300-feet from an arterial roadway (measured centerline to centerline). Roundabouts on Collectors: Roundabouts on collector streets should be placed only at locations that warrant full traffic control such as a signal or all way stop with exceptions that meet major policy goals such as an entry feature. Applicant's Proposal: Based on the submitted conceptual site plan, the applicant is proposing to construct two roundabouts on the site, one each located on the east and wide side of the Williams Northwest Natural Gas Pipeline. Staff Comment/Recommendation: While the applicant's proposal to construct two roundabouts is in accordance with the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan, the proposed configuration of roadways around the roundabouts is not. The Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan encourages roundabouts at the intersection of collector streets, and depicts two roundabouts on the site that are connected by a collector street and each located at a four-way intersection of two collector streets. The applicant's conceptual site plan does not directly connect the two proposed roundabouts, and some of the streets intersecting the roundabouts appear to be local. The applicant should reconfigure the site plan to directly connect the two roundabouts and properly locate them for traffic control at the intersections of collector streets where the traffic is forecast to be the highest. The roundabouts should be designed and built in accordance with the District's Roundabout Application Guidelines. 7. Driveways Access Management Policy: District policy 7207.8 states that direct access to arterials and collectors is normally restricted. The developer shall try to use combined access points. If the developer can show that the use of a combined access point to a collector or arterial street is impractical, the District may consider direct access points. Access points for proposed developments at intersections should be located as far from the intersection as practical, and in no case closer than as illustrated on Figure 72-F4, unless a waiver for the access point has been approved by the District Commission. Driveway Offsets: District policy 72-F4 (1) requires driveways located on collector roadways near a signalized intersection to be located a minimum of 175-feet from the signalized intersection for afull-access driveway and a minimum of 85-feet from the signalized intersection for aright- in/right-out only driveway. Successive Driveways: District policy 72-F5, requires driveways located on collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of 25 to align or offset a minimum of 105-feet from any existing or G MAZ-09-008 proposed driveway; driveways located on collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of 30 to align or offset a minimum of 125-feet from any existing or proposed driveway; and driveways located on collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of 35 to align or offset a minimum of 150-feet from any existing or proposed driveway. Commercial Driveways: District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes over 1,000 vehicles to a maximum width of 36-feet. Most commercial driveways will be constructed as curb-cut type facilities if located on local streets. Curb return type driveways with 15-foot radii will be required for driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways. Driveway Paving: 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. Staff Comment/Recommendation: The applicant will be required to comply with District driveway and access policies that are in effect at the time that a subsequent development application is submitted. 8. Landscaping Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACRD right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision triangle at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans. Tree Planter Policy: The District's Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in planters less than 8- feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet. C.
