Existing Land Use(s) and Zoning: A single family home (used for an office) exists on the site and will be removed when future commercial development occurs on the site. B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: This property is surrounded by residentially zoned land in the Windsong Subdivision and rural residential property. 1. North: Rural residential property, zoned RUT in Ada County 2. East: Rural residential property and Agricultural land, zoned RUT in Ada County 3. South: Ada County Highway District Parcel, zoned Rl in Ada County 4. West: Platted but undeveloped single-family residential, zoned R-8 C. History of Previous Actions: In 2005, the parcels proposed for annexation were part of the City's Comprehensive Map amendment for North Meridian (CPA-OS-004) which changed the land use JJA Annexation PAGE 2 on the subject property to a Mixed Use-Community designation. D. Utilities: 1. Public Works: a. Location of sewer: Service is located in W Crosswind St. b. Location of water: Service is located in W Crosswind St c. Issues or concerns: None E. Physical Features: 1. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: The Creason Lateral transverses the subject property however, the canal was tiled as part of the Linder/Ustick Road intersection improvements. 2. Hazards: Staff is not aware of any hazards that exist on this property. 3. Flood Plain: Small portion of the southwest comer is in the flood plain. F. Access: Three access points were approved for this site with the Linder Road -Ustick Road intersection project. One full access driveway onto Ustick Road approximately 200-feet west of Linder Road and one right-in/right-out only driveway onto Linder Road approximately 350-feet north of Ustick Road were approved and constructed with the intersection project. Another full- access driveway onto Linder Road approximately 570-feet north of Ustick Road was approved with the intersection project, but has yet to be constructed. Further, W. Crossroad Street is stubbed along the western boundary and was constructed the Windsong Subdivision. The extension of the public street (W. Crossroad Street) through the site will be addressed and reviewed with a future development application. VII. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The subject property is designated as "Mixed Use Community (MLJ-C)" on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. "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 intent of the MU-C designation allows up to 25 acres of non-residential uses, up to 200,000 square feet of non-residential building area, and residential densities of 3 to 15 units per acre. This category includes uses such as grocery stores, drug stores, coffee/sandwich shops, dry cleaner/Laundromat, professional offices, retaiUgift shops, clothing stores, garden centers, restaurants, banks, drive-through facilities, auto service stations, department stores, medicaUdental clinics, schools, parks, churches, public uses, clubhouses, hardware stores, salons, .public uses and daycares. The applicant is proposing to zone the property C-C (Community Business District), which is consistent with the MU-C land use designation. At this time, commercial development is not planned for the subject property; however with the diversity of uses allowed in a C-C zone, Staffbelieves future commercial uses will generally conform to the stated purpose, intent, and standards of the MU- C land use category within the Comprehensive Plan. Staff fords the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed commercial nature of this property (staff analysis in italics): • Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1 -Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. JJA Annexarion PAGE 3 The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands proposed to be annexed in the following manner: - Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at the developer's expense. - The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Rural Fire District. Once annexed the lands will be under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural Fire Department. - The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada County Sheriff's Office. Once annexed the lands will be serviced by the Meridian Police Department (MPD). - The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the Ada County Highway District (ACFID). This service will not change. - The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District No. 2. This service will not change. - The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer no revenue loss as a result of the subject annexation. Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by Meridian Building Services, Meridian Public Works Department, Meridian Water Department, Meridian Wastewater Department, Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary Services Company. • "All mixed use projects shall be directly accessible to neighborhoods within the section by both vehicles and pedestrians." The residential development to the west of this property has provided vehicular and pedestrian access to this site via a public street. Staff believes extending this street through the development in the future will provide connectivity between the two properties. Staff is also recommending the applicant provide a stub street to the undeveloped parcel to the north for interconnectivity with said parcel as well. Further, the City's Master Pathways Plan calls fora 10 foot wide pathway along Ustick Road and the east side of Linder Road. Staff believes the extension of the sidewalks along the public street will provide pedestrian access to the future commercial development and the City s future pathway planned along Linder Road. In addition staff believes, the applicant should provide a S foot wide pathway within the 2Sfoot landscape buffer adjacent to the western property boundary to facilitate pedestrian connectivity to the 10 foot pathway planned along Ustick Road. • Where the project is developed adjacent to low or medium density residential uses, a transitional use is encouraged." The site is located adjacent to land that is developed or planned for low and medium density residential uses. In 2005, the subject site was part of the City's initiated Comprehensive Map Amendment. This parcel was envisioned to develop with neighborhood commercial to provide services to the surrounding residential neighborhoods. Once actual development is proposed for the site, staff will ensure the site is developed in a fashion consistent with the guidelines in Meridian Design Manual and the applicable standards of the Unified Development Code. • Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 2 - "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets." The applicant did not submit a concept plan with the subject annexation application. Without having a plan to evaluate; access cannot be adequately addressed. A site visit revealed the JJA Annexation PAGE 4 existing home on the property takes access from Ustick Road. Two other access points were granted by ACFID. A right-in/right-out access point has been constructed along with the aforementioned access to Ustick Road. Another full access point has been granted by ACFID approximately 570 feet from the intersection, not yet constructed and may serve as a connection point for the future roadway from the Windsong Subdivision. As mentioned earlier, a public street is stubbed along the western boundary for future connectivity. Staff believes the stub street (W. Crossroad Street) should be extended through the site to provide future connectivity with Linder Road. A public street should also be stubbed to the northern undeveloped parcel for future interconnectivity and alleviate the need for further accesses onto Linder Road. If this public street is extended through the site; access may be facilitated from a local street in accordance with UDC 11-3A-3. Note: UDC II-3A-3 restricts access to collector and arterial streets if local street access is provided unless waived by City Council Future access points to Linder Road, the extension of W. Crossroad Street through the site and the northern stub street will be addressed and reviewed with a future development (preliminary plat) application. • Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 4 - "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.)." Linder Road and Ustick Road are classified as arterial roadways. The UDC requires a 25- footwide street landscape buffer adjacent to these roadways when development occurs. • Chapter V, Goal III, Objective D, Action 5 - "Require all commercial businesses to install and maintain landscaping." In addition to the required street landscape buffers, planter islands and S foot landscape buffers are required adjacent to drive aisles and parking. Further the property abuts residential property on the northern and western boundaries. Per the UDC the applicant shall construct a 25foot wide landscape buffer adjacent to said boundaries when development is proposed for the site. Chapter IV, Goal I, Objective A, Action - "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." Currently, the existing home on the site is connected to city services. City services are readily available when commercial development is proposed for the site. • Chapter VII, Goal 1, Objective B - "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opporhtnities within the Impact Area." Although commercial development is not proposed, Staff believes that the proposed zoning district (C-C) permits a variety of uses that may compliment the mix of uses existing and planned for the area which include: professional offices, retail, restaurants, daycare center and a convenience store and fuel facility. VIII. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE A. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the C-C district is to provide for the retail and service needs of the community in accord with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Four (4) 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 the district in proximity to streets and highways. JJA Annexation PAGE 5 B. Zoning Schedule of Use Control: UDC 11-2B-21ists uses that are principal permitted (P), accessory (A), and conditional (C) or prohibited (-) uses within the proposed C-C district. C. Dimensional Standards: Dimensional Standards: Development of the site proposed to be zoned C- C shall comply with the dimensional standards of the C-C district listed in UDC Table 11-2B-3. D. Landscaping: 1. Width of street buffer(s): A 25-foot wide street landscape buffer will be required adjacent to Ustick Road and Linder Road, designated arterial roadways, in compliance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. 2. Width of buffer(s) between land uses: A 25-foot wide landscape buffer will be required adjacent to residential uses upon development of this site, in compliance with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-9C. 3. Percentage of site as open space: NA 4. Parking lot landscaping: All parking lot landscaping shall comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8C. IX. ANALYSIS A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: The request is to annex and zone 5.89 acres of land from the RUT zoning district in Ada County to the C-C zoning district in the City. At this time, the applicant is not proposing to development the site. However, there is an existing home on the property which is currently connected to city services. Upon commencement of the intersection construction, it was discovered the private well for the home site was located within the acquired right-of--way. This discovery has facilitated the need to annex this site into the City as the existing home is using city services. The annexation legal descriptions submitted with the application (stamped on July 10, 2009 by Darin Holzney, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. Dimensional Standards: The applicant is requesting a C-C zoning district for the site. Future development of the site must comply with the dimensional standards for the C-C zoning district listed in UDC Table 11-2B-3. In addition, the applicant must comply with the allowed uses in the C-C district outlined in UDC table 11-2B-2. Access: Three access points were approved by ACHD for this site with the Linder Road -Ustick Road intersection project. One full access driveway onto Ustick Road approximately 200-feet west of Linder Road and one right-in/right-out only driveway onto Linder Road approximately 350-feet north of Ustick Road were approved and constructed with the intersection project. The other full-access driveway onto Linder Road approximately 570-feet north of Ustick Road was approved with the intersection project, but is not constructed. In addition, a public street is stubbed along the western boundary for future connectivity. Staff believes W. Crossroad Street should be extended through the site that connects to Linder Road and a stub street should be provided to the undeveloped parcel to the north. Staff is recommending with future preliminary plat submittal, the applicant depict the extension of W.Crossroad Street to Linder Road and a stub street to the northern property. Cross access for the property will be reviewed with a future plat submittal as well. Meridian Pathways Master Plan: The City's Master Pathways Plan has identified this site as having the potential to extend the pathway network along Ustick Road. With the intersection improvements, a 7-foot wide attached sidewalk was constructed along Ustick Road instead of a JJA Annexation PAGE 6 10-foot wide pathway prescribed by the Meridian Master Pathways Plan. At this time, the Parks Department is not requesting the sidewalk be extended to 10 feet. However there are future commitments the Parks Department is recommending to facilitate the construction of the pathway. The first recommendation is to construct a 10-foot wide multi-use pathway beginning on the west edge of the e~sting access to Ustick Road, proceeding north/northwest connecting to the existing service road on ACHD's drainage site located at the western boundary. The other recommendation is to provide a 5' public access/recreational easement in favor of the City of Meridian measured from the back edge of sidewalk on Ustick starting at the west edge of the e~sting access on Ustick Road and continuing to the east property line. The reason for this easement is so the City has the ability to expand the sidewalk to 10 feet in the future. Staff is recommending this pedestrian easement by depicted with future preliminary plat submittal. Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) and Design Review (DES): The annexation of this property is not subject to Design Review and the applicant has not submitted a concept plan depicting how this site may develop. Since the applicant is requesting a C-C zoning district, it is likely the site will develop with future commercial uses. The UDC requires CZC and DES approval for all new commercial developments within the City limits. In addition, the site is developed with a single family home. UDC 11-2B-2 does not list detached single family homes as a conditional or principally permitted use in the C-C zoning district. If the subject annexation request is approved, the existing home on the site becomes anon-conforming use. However UDC 11-1B-4 states anon-conforming use may continue provided the use remains lawful and is not expanded or extended unless approved through the conditional use process. The applicant has communicated to staff the home is being used for an office but has not been approved by the City for an office use. If the applicant wishes to use this home for an office in the interim, staff is recommending the applicant submit CZC, DES and ALT applications for a change of use on the site. Please refer to the landscape section below for analysis regarding the alternative compliance application. With the exception of the e~sting home, staff is recommending a DA provision that prohibits the issuance of future CZC's until the property is subdivided in accordance with the standards listed in the UDC and a concept plan is attached as an Exhibit in the development agreement. Landscaping: Linder Road and Ustick Road are classified as arterial roadways. By City Ordinance, a 25-foot wide street landscape buffer is required adjacent to these roadways. Conformance with the street landscape buffer standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C will be evaluated with a future plat submittal. However, the existing home on the site prohibits conformance with the aforementioned dimensional standards of the district due to the intersection improvements. If the applicant wishes to use the existing home for an office, alternative compliance is necessary to facilitate the approval of the reduced street buffers until such time as the home is removed and commercial development is proposed for the site. The applicant will be required to comply with the paving, parking and parking lot landscaping requirements in accordance with the UDC to establish the office use on the property. Further the property abuts residential property on the northern and western boundaries. By City Ordinance the applicant shall construct a 25-foot wide landscape buffer adjacent to said boundaries when development is proposed for the site. In addition, staff is recommending the applicant construct a 5-foot wide pathway within the 25-foot wide landscape buffer JJA Annexarion PAGE 7 adjacent to the western boundary to provide pedestrian connectivity to the 10-foot pathway planned for the property along Ustick Road. Floodplain: A portion of the site (southwest corner of the site adjacent to Five Mile Creek) is within a flood plain. Public Works is requiring the applicant submit a Floodplain Development Permit and secure approval before any construction can begin. The applicant shall coordinate with the Floodplain Administrator to verify requirements. Development Agreement: UDC 11-SB-3D2 and Idaho Code § 65-6711A provides the City the authority to require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement (DA) with the City that may require some written commitment for all future uses. Staff believes that a DA is necessary to ensure that this property is developed in a fashion that is consistent with the comprehensive plan and does not negatively impact nearby properties. If the Commission or Council feel that additional development agreement provisions are necessary, staff recommends a clear outline of the commitments of the developer being required. Please see Exhibit B for a list of DA provisions applicable to this site. In summary, Staff is supportive of the Applicant's proposal to annex this site with a C-C zoning designation with the recommended DA provisions listed in Exhibit B of this report. X. EI~~ITS A.
