LEGAL NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Pursuant to established procedure, NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Meridian Planning and

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT submitted by Lee Centers for
the property generally described as located at

TO: City of Meridian
33 East Idaho St.
Meridian, ID 83642
DATE: July 8, 1997
RE: Application for Conditional Use
To whom it may concern:
Lee Centers is requesting conditional use approval for 16 apartment units (in conjunction
with annexation and zoning) on the parcel of land at 305 S. Meridian Road. This parcel
of land is across from Meridian Lanes Bowling Alley and currently is the site of a single
family residence. The requested zoning district is Residential (R-40) as described in the
City of Meridian's Zoning and Development Ordinance.
The relatively close access to the interstate and close proximity to Central Valley
Corporate Park where new businesses continue to locate make this location an excellent
one for individuals and families moving to Meridian. These apartment units should help
meet the housing demand as Meridian continues to grow.
The subject lot is bounded by existing apartment complexes on both the north and south
sides and could easily be viewed as an "in -fill" type of project. Although the resulting
density will be slightly higher than the existing multi -family parcels, the density will be
essentially the same. This use does fit with the City of Meridian's Comprehensive Plan
which indicates this area as existing urban.
Access to the apartments would be through the existing apartment complex to the south
(which is owned by the applicant.) This approach has already been discussed with the
Ada County Highway District staff (David Szplett) and was positively received. The
existing access is viewed as having ample capacity to support this use.
Existing sewer and water are easily extended to this site from the lot to the south.
Planned parking meets the city's requirements. This plan has also been discussed with
the Fire Department (Kenny Bowers) and fire service/accessibility issues were
preliminary viewed as adequate. The existing single family residence will be retained
and likely split off as a separate lot.
870 NORTH LINDER SUITE B - MERIDIAN. IDAHO 83642 v (208) 887-7760 ■ FAX (208) 887-7781
Mr. Centers agrees to pay additional sewer, water, or trash fees or charges, if any,
associated with this use. Additional information required for the conditional use is
attached.
I certify that I have read this application and verify that the information contained herein
is true and correct. I further acknowledge the requirement to post the property at least
one week before the public hearing on this project and will ensure that this occurs.
Please do not hesitate to contact meat 887-7760 if you have any questions regarding this
application.

Roger J. Smith, P.E.

ITEM #17: DOLORES LISBY: DISCUSSION OF PAVING REQUIREMENT AT 706 E.
FIRST STREET:
Lisby: I am here again asking that you would drop the, I don't know what you would call
it anyhow so that I wouldn't have to be forced to pave in back of my lot or in back of my
building. There is a 30 by 120 feet that is mine and there is 30 by 120 feet that belong to
Ruth Crow. If this kind of rings a bell for you when I was here March le putting this
before you before. You told me that to keep at Ruth to try and get her to go ahead and
pave this. I sent you a letter telling the dates that I called her nearly every single month
since March and she defiantly says no way, no way. She has real problems her
business is down, she can't see that it would better her business in anyway to pave.
And positively no she will not do it. Well since I originally had bids on this for my
property things have gone up. Not only to where it would be more than double close to
$12,000 but it would probably be Gose to $15,000 now just to do my little 30 by 120 and
a good share of that has cement on it now which wouldn't have to be done. I think that
is exorbitant to place me under that kind of a condition where I would have her heavy
beer trucks going through there breaking down my asphalt and the cement that I would
have to put down the center for drainage. I ask that you would allow this to drop. If at
any time perhaps on down the line that she would go for it boy I would jump at the
chance to have it paved because I want to improve the property. But I can't do it from
$5,000 to $15,0001 can't do it, that is just ridiculous. Not only that I would have to keep
my drain cleaned, not only for my own which would be very little upkeep for my part but
with all her rocks and drainage and everything it would put a hardship on me. So I ask
that you drop this.
Corrie: Council, any discussion or questions, thoughts?
Morrow. Mr. Mayor, do we not in our discussion in March give you the time to see until
now to see if we can get Mrs. Crow (inaudible) did we not also have before us drawings
that clearly indicated that the center of the drain would be centered on the property line
so that it would drain both lots?

they will give us a copy. Do you have some? Anything else from staff, if not I will close

ITEM #13: REQUEST FOR A VACATION OF GENTRY WAY IN AMENDED MAGIC
VIEW SUBDIVISION AND PUBLIC UTILITIES, DRAINAGE AND IRRIGATION
EASEMENTS BY DICK MESSERSMITH - PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY ADJACENT TO
LOTS 12 AND 13:
Johnson: So this is a request for a vacation but not a public hearing is that correct? No
public hearing required this is just a request for a vacation?
Stiles: Yes
Johnson: Is Mr. Messersmith here or a representative?
Jacobs: Keith Jacobs, this piece of right of way Gentry Way doesn't have utilities in it,
no improvements over that land access to Eagle Road has been terminated by the
transportation Department of Idaho. The only access out of this property these two
properties would be back to Allen Street and we are just requesting that we vacate this
right of way and then proceed onto the Highway. District.
Johnson: Makes sense to me, any questions of Mr. Jacobs?
MacCoy: I have one, looking at your map that was submitted with your material, I am
assuming after figuring out all of these lines and everything that it is 13 and 14 you are
talking about, 12 and 13.
Jacobs: 14 is part of the right of way now (inaudible).
MacCoy: Okay 12 and 13 which you have decided that you don't care to spend the
money to go ahead and hook those up and just not develop those two pieces of
property is that the reason you are not going to do it?
Jacobs: As I understand it the property owners, there are two property owners the
owners of lot 13 and lot 12 wish to vacate this and apparently pool their resources and
either market or develop it as a unit. The remnant part of Lot 13 is such an odd shape
that it makes it advantageous to put the two together and that is what the hope is to
vacate that right of way and then they will have more land to develop. It is a dead end
street.

5. The City of Meridian owns and maintains a six-inch diameter water main adjacent to the
south in Mr. Center's apartment complex. A six-inch diameter main will need to be
extended north into the subject site. Appropriate easements to the City of Meridian will
need to be dedicated over said main. At this time the Public Works Department is
concerned about the capacity to serve this site for fire protection from the single six-inch
main that was installed as part of Mr. Center's adjacent project. An additional main may
be required to loop the main to Meridian Road. The necessity for this additional main will
be determined from a fire hydrant flow test on site during the plan review process.
6. Please revise the site plan to show all existing and proposed utilities.
7. Assessment fees will be determined during the plan review process. Applicant will be
required to enter into a re -assessment agreement with the City of Meridian.
8. As Meridian Road is designated as an entrance corridor in the Meridian Comprehensive
Plan, a minimum 20 -foot landscape setback beyond required right-of-way should be
provided. Detailed landscape plans showing this planting strip will be reviewed during the
building permit process.
9. Although not shown on the site plan, the landscape plan shows that the area east of the
proposed four -unit apartment is for overflow parking. No access to Meridian Road has
been approved for this location. In order to be used for parking, the access for the existing
house would have to be used. If Council approves this area for overflow parking, it will
need to be fully paved and landscaped. Gravel parking areas will not be permitted. Some
additional landscaped space in this area would be desirable.
10. Provide five -foot -wide pedestrian walkways throughout the project.
11. The proposed trash area is shown as a planter on the landscape plan. Coordinate dumpster
location with Meridian Sanitary Services and revise plans to reflect changes.
12. Dedicate additional needed right-of-way on Meridian Road to Ada County Highway
District. Submit a copy of the recorded warranty deed prior to obtaining a building
permit. The dedication needs to include the frontage of the existing house.

could be part of the annexation ordinance and the approved conditional use. If the R-40
zone is granted, density should be limited to a maximum of 20 units as has been
conditioned upon other properties zoned R-40. The proposed site plan would result in a
density of 18.9 units per acre.

BEFORE THE MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
LEE CENTERS
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A THREE APARTMENT BUILDINGS
305 S. MERIDIAN ROAD
MERIDIAN, IDAHO
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
The above entitled matter having come on for public hearing on
August 12, 1997, at the hour of 7:00 o'clock p.m.; the, Applicant
appearing through his representative, David Bailey of Pinnacle
Engineers, Inc., hereinafter referred to as the "Representative,"
the Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Meridian having
duly considered the evidence and the matter makes the following
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. A notice of a public hearing on the application for the
conditional use permit was published for two (2) consecutive weeks
prior to said public hearing scheduled on August 12, 1997, the
first publication of which was fifteen (15) days prior to said
hearing; that the matter was duly considered at the August 12,
1997, hearing; that the public was given full opportunity to
express comments and submit evidence; and that copies of all
notices were available to newspaper, radio and television stations.
2. The property contains approximately one acre and is
located within the City of Meridian at 305 S. Meridian Road. The
property is described in the application which description is
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 1.

incorporated herein. The Applicant is not the owner of record of
the property. The record owners of the property are Robert E. and
Evangelina Mayfield, and they have consented to the application for
re -zone of the property.
3. The property is presently zoned (R-15) Medium Sigh
Density Residential District and the Applicant has requested by
separate application a zoning amendment to (R-40) Sigh Density
Residential District.
4. Pursuant to the application, the property is presently
used for a single family residence. The proposed use of the
property is to construct three apartment buildings. The purpose of
the requested rezone of the property is to allow the construction
of 16 apartment units in three separate buildings. This proposed
use results in 17 dwelling units on the property.
5. Further, pursuant to the application, the property is
bound by existing apartment complexes on both the north and south
sides. Consequently, the proposed project can be easily viewed as
an "in -fill" type of project. Although the resulting density will
be slightly higher than the adjacent multi -family parcels, the
density essentially will be comparable to the neighboring apartment
complexes. Existing utilities, sewer and water, are available on
the lot to the south of the property, and can be easily extended to
the property. Connection to the existing single family residence
to the City's services in planned as part of the proposed project.
6. The Representative testified substantially as follows.
There exists a single family residence on the property. With
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 2.
LEE CENTERS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
regard to the proposed project, of the three apartment buildings to
be constructed, two of will have six units and the third will have
four units. Access to the apartment complexes will be through the
adjacent existing apartment complexes. The Applicant will provide
sewer and water service to the property from this adjacent property
with the apartment complexes.
7. The Representative further testified substantially as
follows. With regard to City staff's comments, no drainage ditches
exist on or across the property. The Applicant will abandon the
existing septic system for the existing house on the property, and
connect the house to the City's sewer system. The existing house
is presently connected to the City's water system. The Applicant
has spoken with the Meridian Fire Department concerning the
location of fire hydrants, and there exists some concern about the
water flow to the fire hydrant from the six inch main. If needed,
the Applicant can loop the water line back to Meridian Road to
increase the water flow for fire protection. The Applicant will
provide the easements for the sewer and water. Consistent with
discussions between the City Engineer, Gary Smith, and Roger Smith
of Pinnacle Engineers, concerning the utilities, the plan needs to
be revised to depict the utilities. The plan will be revised to
show five feet wide sidewalks. In addition there will be provided
a handicapped parking space in the proposed development. The
Applicant has worked with the Ada County Highway District and
determined what it needs in terms of right-of-way for access. With
regard to item 9 of City staff's comments, the Ada County Highway
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 3.
LEE CENTERS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
District has stated that there is a loop driveway to the existing
house; it wants a single access drive rather than two accesses.
The Applicant will develop the property to provide the one access
and does not intend to provide the area for overflow parking. If
the Applicant did provide the area as overflow parking, he would
have to pave the area and provide additional landscaping. However,
the Ada County Highway District has indicated that it would not
object to the use of such area as overflow parking. A fence
presently surrounds the north and west sides of the property. Hope
Arms apartment complexes are to the west and north sides of the
property. To the east and across Meridian Road is Meridian Lanes.
And the Applicant's previous project is to the south of the
property.
8. In response to questions of Commissioner MacCoy, the
Representative testified substantially as follows. The access to
the property is to be from the south, so that there exists plenty
of room for the 20 feet set back along Meridian Road. The trash
area is part of the plans for the development of the property,
although such area is not depicted on the landscape plan submitted.
He is uncertain as to what has been done to coordinate the trash
removal with the City of Meridian's solid waste contractor. The
existing fence along the property is a chain link fence six feet in
height. There is not to be any signage for this particular
project. The Applicant does not plan to provide canopy parking for
vehicles. The buildings located south of the property are similar
to the buildings to be constructed on the property.

9. In response to questions of Commissioner Borup, the
Representative testified substantially as follows. The
Representative does not know, off the top of his head, the zoning
district of the property on which Hope Arms apartments are located.
Chairman Johnson commented that the property was zoned R-15. The
overflow parking will not be part of this proposed project. As far
as the 20 feet landscape set back along Meridian Road, there is no
planned landscaping at this time.
10. Commissioner Borup commented that the landscaping of the
Applicant's other project, the development of the property south of
the subject property, is nice; that he believes the landscaping
including the landscaping along Meridian Road needs to be
addressed. In response, the Representative testified that the
Applicant planned to maintain the existing landscaping in the area.
11. The Applicant, Lee Centers, testified substantially as
follows. Be does not know what the Ada County Highway District's
plans are with regard to the frontage area of the property. The
Ada County Highway District has indicated that it would not permit
access to the proposed project from Meridian Road. Consequently,
he will have to landscape the area when he applies for a building
permit. There exists a cyclone metal fence surrounding the
property. Towards the end of the project, to avoid damage during
construction, he is going to replace that fence with a cedar fence
six feet in height around the property. The apartment buildings
will have covered entry ways, and the stairs will be covered. The
buildings are to be stucco. The landscaping of the property is to

LEE CENTERS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
•
•
be similar to the property to the south, and he will landscape the
area along Meridian Road after the Ada County Highway District
determines what its plans are.
12. In response to questions of Commissioner Borup, Mr.
Centers testified substantially as follows. With regard to the
submitted plan and the fence depicted on it, that fence is the
existing fence, which is not on the property line. If owner(s) of
Hope Arms agrees, of which he is positive, he will replace that
fence and locate it on the property line.
13. Bruce Freckleton, Assistant to the City Engineer, and
Shari Stiles, Planning and Zoning Administrator, submitted comments
which comments are incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
Their comments included the following:
a. Any existing irrigation/drainage ditches crossing

LEE CENTERS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
6. This Application for a conditional use has been judged
upon the basis of guidelines contained in Section 11-2-418 of the
Zoning And Development Ordinance of the City of Meridian and upon
the basis of the Local Planning Act of 1975, Title 67 Chapter 65,
Idaho Code, the Comprehensive Plan of the City of Meridian, and the
record submitted to it and the things of which it may take judicial
notice.
7. Section 11-2-418 C of the Zoning And Development
Ordinance of the City of Meridian sets forth the standards under
which the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council shall
review applications for Conditional Use Permits. Upon a review of
those requirements and a review of the facts presented and the
conditions of the area, assuming that the above conditions or
similar ones thereto would be attached to the conditional use, the
Planning and Zoning Commission concludes as follows:
a. Pursuant to the conditions for the zoning amendment
granted for the property a conditional use permit would
be required;
b. The use would be harmonious with and in accordance
with the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Ordinance;
C. The use is designed and is, apparently, to be
constructed so as to be harmonious in appearance with the
character of the general vicinity. If the conditions set
forth herein are complied with the use should be operated
and maintained to be harmonious with the intended
character of the general vicinity and should not change
the essential character of the area;
d. The use would not be hazardous nor should it be
disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the
conditions are met; however, traffic may increase, but
the development will have a vehicular approach to the
property which shall be designed to decrease interference
with traffic on surrounding public streets;
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 11.
LEE CENTERS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
e. The Applicant shall be able to provide adequately
for the essential public facilities and services such as
streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures,
refuse disposal, water and sewer, but Applicant may have
to pay additional fees for the use;
f. The use would not create excessive additional
requirements at public cost for public facilities and
services and the use would not be detrimental to the
economic welfare of the community;
g. If the conditions are met, the use should not
involve a use, activity, process, material, equipment or
conditions of operation that would be detrimental to
person, property or the general welfare by reason of
excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes,
glare or odors;
h. The Applicant will cause the property to have a
vehicular approach which shall be designed as not to
create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets, and sufficient parking for the proposed use will
be required to meet the requirements of the City
ordinance; and
i. The development and uses will not result in the
destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance.
8. Because conditions may be placed upon the grant of a
conditional use permit to minimize adverse impact on other
development, it is recommended by the Planning and Zoning
Commission that the following conditions of the grant of the
conditional use be required, to wit:
a. The conditional use, pursuant to the Zoning Ordinance,
shall not be transferable to another owner or lessor of
the subject property or to another property;
b. The conditional use shall, not be restricted to a period
of authorization but may be reviewed annually, upon
notice to the Applicant, for violation of any conditions
imposed herein and other conditional use applications;
C. The Applicant shall meet the comments, recommendations
and requirements of the City Engineer's office and the

D. The applicant has an existing loop driveway on Meridian Road, it serves an existing single
family dwelling, located approximately 100 -feet north of Gem Street. There are several
driveways on the east side of Meridian Road that are within 150 -feet of the applicant's
existing driveway. District policy requires a 220 -foot offset from the applicant's existing
driveway and Gem Street on the east side of Meridian Road, and 150 -foot offset from the
existing driveways on the east side of Meridian Road. The applicant's existing loop
driveway does not meet District policy. Staff recommends that the applicant be required to
relocate a single driveway abutting the north property line where it will align with an existing
driveway on the east. This will provide approximately 200 -feet of separation between Gem
Street and the site's driveway. However, a driveway abutting the north property line will be
within 150 -feet of the existing driveways on the east side of Meridian Road. Staff

Dear Shari:
. The following comments are to address your staff report of August 7, 1997:
1. There are no ditches on the property, no variances are requested.
RECEIVED
AUG 13 1997
CITY OF MERIDIAN
2. The existing septic tank will be abandoned and the existing house connected to city sewer. The
existing house is already served by city water. The improvements will be shown on the
development plans.
3. We have discussed the fire hydrant location shown on the site plan with the fire department and
their only concern was flow requirements be met by looping water main if necessary.
Construction will be shown on the development plans.
4. An 8" main with an easement will be extended as required. Construction will be shown on the
development plans.
5. Water main with easement will be extended as required and looped if necessary. Construction
will be shown on the development plans.
6. I believe this comment refers to utilities in Meridian Road. These will be shown on the
development plans.
7. Applicant will meet this requirement.
8. A 20 foot setback is planned and landscaping will be shown on the development plans.
9. The owner does not plan to use this space for parking but if he did, he would provided plans for
paving, landscape and access for approval.
10. The walkways will be 5' wide and shown on the development plans.
870 NORTH LINDER SL= B ■ MERIDIAN, IDAHO 83642 a (208) 887-7760 , FAX (208) 887-7781
•
11. The proposed trash area is intended for such use and will be shown on the development plans.
The landscape plan will be revised to reflect this.
12. We will meet ACHD's requirements. They are not requiring ROW dedication for this
application.
13. Handicap parking will be provided and shown on the development plans. The owner believes
that no handicap accessible units are required due to the size of the project.
14. There is an existing six foot cyclone fence on the north and west side and a six foot cedar fence
on the south side of the project. During construction, the chain fence will be replaced with six
foot cedar.
15. Security lighting will be shown on the development plans.
16. No new signage is proposed for this project.
17. We believe that the conditions of the conditional use and the proposed density obviate the need
for a development agreement.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter please call me at (208)887-7760.
Sincerely,

ITEM #8: FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW FOR A CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF 3 APARTMENT BUILDINGS (ONE 4 UNIT

ROAD ACROSS FROM THE BOWLING ALLEY:
Johnson: Any comments regarding the findings of fact for Mr. Centers project regarding
the conditional use permit?
Smith: I have a couple, this is another project that I am disappointed that we seem to
have insufficient information to really evaluate the proposed development of this
property. I would be willing to entertain a motion to approve these findings of fact and
conclusions of law with the requirement that the applicant submit building designs
indicating among other things height, number of stories, building materials, landscaping,
parking areas, and any other information necessary for the City Council to make a well
