Rohm: No. No. We will continue: Item 7: Public Hearing: PFP 03-004 Request for Preliminary /Final Plat approval of 2 building lots on 3.775 acres in a C-N zone for Cherry Crossing Commercial Subdivision by Hawkins Companies -northwest corner of West Cherry Lane and North Linder Road: Borup: Okay. These -- maybe just the next two. They both seem to be kind of clean-up type items. Okay. We'd like to open Public Hearing PFP 03-004, preliminary plat final plat, two lots in Cherry Crossing Subdivision. Open both of these hearings and start with the staff report. Siddoway: Thank you. Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. This is an application for Cherry Crossing Commercial Subdivision. It is a two lot preliminary-final plat on 3.775 acres. The location of the plat is on the northwest corner of Cherry Lane and Linder Roads. This property was originally platted as Cherry Crossing Subdivision. That plat was recorded earlier -- or I guess last year on May 21st of 2003. Then, on June 10th of 2003, there was a revised CUP for Cherry Crossing that was approved by Council. I'm going to flip forward quickly and come back to these. This is the approved revised Conditional Use Permit that was approved in June of last year. In order to accommodate the newly proposed Pizza Hut at this location, they did a lot line adjustment, which created a lot around that that they could convey to that property owner. The subject application simply replaces one of the lot lines that was originally there before the lot line adjustment. This is a copy of the preliminary plat. Originally, there was a lot line in this location. The proposal before you tonight simply replaces the lot line in that location. The reason why a plat is required to do that is that they are adding a lot to the subdivision. The original plat had the two lots in the rear with the single larger lot on the front, then, when they did a lot line adjustment they, then, created two lots in the front with a large one in the back. This application would add in this lot line creating a fourth lot in the subdivision. The plat does comply with the revised Conditional Use Permit that has been approved and staff recommends approval of the plat with the conditions noted in the staff report and I will stand for any questions. Borup: Questions? Would the applicant like to come forward and have a presentation to make? Zaremba: While he's coming up, I did have one question. Just a clarification, really. On page three of the memo, item 12, does state. that this application is subject to all the previous conditions. Siddoway: Yes. Zaremba: There were some cross-access and cross-parking requirements made. Do those carry through, even though we are adding a lot? Meridian Planning & Zoning January 8, 2004 Page 53 of 89 Siddoway: Yes. Zaremba: So, all four lots are subject to the -- Siddoway: In fact, there is an easement right along this lot line that already exists for utilities that has already been -- the utilities have already been installed and accepted by the Public Works Department and those easements are not affected and the cross- access agreements and landscape plans that were approved with the original final plat are still in effect with this one. Zaremba: Okay. So, they apply to all four lots now. Siddoway: Correct. Zaremba: Okay. That was my only question. Siddoway: I guess this -- another point along the same vein is that they are not proposing any changes to the CC&R's that were approved with the last plat as well. Borup: Okay, sir Huffacker: Good evening. Brian Huffacker with Hawkins Companies. Staff did a great job of outlining the history and the purpose of our application and to make this short, we concur with their staff report and agree with that and would stand for any questions you may have. Borup: Questions from the Commission? Okay. Thank you. Do we have anyone else here to testify on this application? Seeing none -- Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move the Public Hearing on PFP 03-004, be closed Mathes: Second. Borup: Motion and second to close the Public Hearing. All in favor. Any opposed? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.

Item 8: Public Hearing: PFP 03-005 Request for Preliminary /Final Plat approval of 2 building lots on 52.84 acres in an I-L zone for Jabil Subdivision by Jabil Circuit, Inc. - 1303 East Central Way: Borup: The next Public Hearing is PFP 03-005, request for preliminary-final plat approval of two building lots on 52 acres in an I-L zone for Jabil Subdivision. Open this hearing at this time and start with the staff report. Siddoway: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. This also is a two lot subdivision. However, this one is on the property that the Jabil Circuits building currently sits on. It is the gray and light industrial property that sits just north of the freeway. This is an aerial photo taken a few years back when Jabil was just beginning construction. You can see the building there. It's now built out with parking all the way around. There are existing two parcels, but these are remnant county parcels and we cannot move this line through a lot line adjustment process, thus, the plat being required in this case as well. So, they are proposing a two lot subdivision. This is the existing Jabil building with the surrounding parking. They are proposing to split the lot five feet off the back of the existing western edge of the parking. That location does comply with the landscape ordinance for a five foot buffer on the interior lot lines and, actually, one of the earlier versions of the plat did not have it there and they have already revised it per staff's recommendation. The overall site is just about 53 acres. The two lots proposed are 33 and a half acres for the -- the larger one the building sits on and, then, the one to the west would be about 19 and a half acres. Landscaping improvements were already added to the site when the Jabil Circuits project was developed on the parcel to the west. They have existing soccer fields that the PAL Soccer League uses. I guess it should be pointed out on the record that the plat will make this lot available for development and those soccer fields may not stay. There was no landscape plan submitted with the plat, as landscaping does exist, as was mentioned, along Jabil. Any development that occurs on Lot 2 would be landscaped at the time of development. There are, I believe, four special considerations on this one. The first one is the Locust Grove overpass. When the Jabil Circuits project was originally developed, ACHD purchased right of way for an overpass at Locust Grove going across the freeway. At that time the right of way was purchased without a design having been done. Since that time a design is now done and it was determined that they actually need to purchase some mare right of way. Those negotiations are underway and just ask the applicant to address that. One of the questions we had as staff is how does that affect the edge of the existing parking and so they did provide a blowup of this area showing the new right of way location that ACHD is requiring and they show the smallest point here, I believe at about 13 -- 13 feet. So, there is still adequate room with the new right of way adjacent to the existing parking, plus this portion of the right of way would likely be landscaped as the site of the on ramp, which would be centered along the street.
