• History of Previous Actions: The subject property preliminarily platted (PP-07-011) as the Paramount
Commercial Subdivision in 2007. As part of that application, the development agreement (MI-07-007) was
modified to require administrative design review for all commercial buildings within Paramount.
In 2009 a property boundary adjustment was approved that reconfigured two lots to accommodate the
proposed self-service facility. A final plat is necessary to create the public road that parallels the southern
property boundary. Prior to occupancy the plat needs to be recorded and the subdivision improvements
completed.
Elevations: Yes. Elevations for the interior buildings were not submitted to staff before the public hearing as requested.
Outstanding Issue(s) for Commission: After speaking with the developer, staff is requesting that condition of approval 1.3
be modified to read prior to the release of occupancy for any structure on the site, a final plat shall be recorded and the
extension of E. Deer Crest Street shall be constructed to the eastern edge of the shared driveway to provide access to the
self-storage facility. The construction of vertical curb, gutter and sidewalk shall be extended along the southern boundary
of the storage facility terminating at the eastern boundary. At the terminus of dedicated public street, an improved 20-foot
wide emergency access road and turnaround shall be constructed in accordance with the Meridian Fire Department
standards to provide secondary access to the storage facility.
