Application(s): Conditional Use Permit
Size of property, existing zoning, and location: This site consists of 8.67 acres of land, is currently zoned C -G, and is located north
of W. Overland Road, south of Interstate 84 and west of S. Stoddard Road.
Adjacent Land Use & Zoning: The subject property is primarily surrounded by developed and undeveloped commercial and industrial
properties, zoned C -G and I -L.
History: Recently, the City Council approved a development agreement modification application that removed the subject property
from the recorded development agreement approved with the rezone. As part of that approval, a new DA, instrument #114034780, was
recorded that ties the property to a mixed use concept plan consisting of multi -family, retail and office uses and specific building
elevations.
Comprehensive Plan FLUM Designation: Commercial
Summary of Request: (CUP): A conditional use permit is requested for a multi -family development in the C -G zoning district. The
proposed development consists of eleven (11) apartment buildings with a mix of 10 and 20 units, 3 stories in height, with a combination
of (76) 1 -bedroom units; (81) 2 -bedroom units; and (33) 3 -bedroom units for a total of 190 dwelling units on 8.67 acres of land. The
gross density proposed for this development is 21.9 dwelling units to the acre.
Access: Access to the site is via S. Tech Lane. 3. To improve internal site circulation, staff and the Police Department recommends
the applicant extend the driveway north of the proposed clubhouse to S. Tech Lane.
Landscape and Amenities: The amount of open space proposed for the entire development is approximately 2.25 acres which
exceeds the UDC requirement. The applicant is proposing the following qualifying amenities: 1) a covered picnic area with fire pit and
barbeques, 2) multiple large open grassy areas, 3)a clubhouse, 4) fitness facility, 5) pool and hot tub and 6)5 percent additional open
space. Staff is supportive of the proposed amenities for the development.
Elevations: The proposed buildings provide variations in the roof planes and modulation in the facades and incorporate a mix of
following building materials: two (2) wood siding materials (board and batten and horizontal lap), architectural shingles, belly bands,
decorative corbels, decorative rails, decorative columns and brick.
At a minimum, staff is recommending modifications to the proposed building design as follows:
• The development should consist of four (4) distinct color palettes of earth tone colors to provide color variation;
• The applicant should provide four (4) distinct building designs within the development. Each apartment building may use the same
building form/design but should incorporate a mix of three siding materials (cedar shake, stucco, horizontal lap and board and batten),
brick and/or stone wainscot, decorative corbels, decorative rails, decorative column, belly bands and architectural roof shingles;
• The proposed clubhouse should be designed with the same building materials as the apartment buildings to maintain a cohesive
design theme; and
• The proposed carports should be painted or powder coated to complement the overall color scheme for the development.
Compliance with the aforementioned design changes will be required with the submittal of a certificate of zoning compliance and
administrative design review application.

VI. LAND USE
A. Existing Land Use(s): The portion of the site where the multi -family development is proposed is
currently vacant undeveloped land, zoned C -G.
B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: The subject property is
primarily surrounded by developed and undeveloped commercial and industrial properties, zoned
C -G and I -L.
C. History of Previous Actions:
• In 2001, the property received a conditional use permit/planned unit development approval
(CUP -01-009), under the name of Treasure Valley Technical Center, which allowed for
daycare, office, retail and industrial uses. As part of that approval a conceptual site plan was
approved and any future daycare, office and retail uses require conditional use permit
approval.
• In 2007, a preliminary plat and final plat (PP -07-013 and FP -07-036) was approved for the 26
+/- acre portion of the site to the north and west of Western Electronics that consisted of 11
building lots and 2 common lots.
• In 2008, the property received comprehensive map amendment and rezone (CPA -08-005 and
RZ-08-003) approval to change the land use from industrial to commercial and rezone the
property from the I -L zone to the C -G zone. With the rezone of the property, the City
required a development agreement (DA) that recorded as instrument #108119853. The
recorded DA required compliance with a specific concept plan and building elevations.
• Recently, the City Council approved a development agreement modification application
(MDA -14-003) that removed the subject property from the recorded development agreement
approved with the rezone. As part of that approval, a new DA, instrument #114034780, was
recorded that ties the property to a mixed use concept plan consisting of multi -family, retail
and office uses and specific building elevations.
D. Utilities:
a) Location of sewer: Sanitary sewer service to the area is currently being provided by a
temporary, private lift station that discharges to an existing gravity sewer main in Overland
Road.
Overland Park (CUP -14-009) PAGE 2
b) Location of water: Domestic water service to the area is currently being provided by an
existing main in S. Tech Lane.
c) Issues or concerns: The existing "private" sanitary sewer lift station and discharge system
will need to be upgraded to City of Meridian Standards to accommodate the proposed project.
In addition to the upgrades, the lift station will need to be converted from "private" to "City
of Meridian" ownership. The applicant shall also be required to construct a looped water
system by means of an additional main connection on the west side of the project, to
Overland Road, as shown on the project site plan.
E. Physical Features:
1. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: The Kennedy Lateral runs along a portion of the west boundary of
this site and was piped with Kennedy Commercial Subdivision.
2. Hazards: Staff is unaware of any hazards that may exist on this site.
3. Flood Plain: This property does not lie within the floodplain or flood way.
VII. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS
The subject property is currently designated "Commercial" on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land
Use Map. Per the Comprehensive Plan, multi -family residential is an acceptable use in commercial
areas. Although the comprehensive plan does not specify a maximum density within the Commercial
designation, the applicant is proposing 190 -units on 8.67 acres. The gross density of the proposed
development is 21.9 dwelling units to the acre.
Recently, the applicant obtained City approval of concept plan to develop the property with a mix of
uses. The multi -family development is the first phase of development. Subsequent phases include
retail development along Overland Road and future office development north of the proposed multi-
family development. Currently, several single family subdivisions in various construction stages are
developing in the area. Staff believes multi -family residential is under served in this area of Meridian
and the proposed development will contribute to the mix of residential, retail, educational,
employment, entertainment, industrial and restaurant uses in the area.
Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to
the proposed use (staff analysis in italics):
• "Provide for a wide diversity of housing types (single-family, modular, mobile homes and
multi -family arrangements) and choices between ownership and rental dwelling units for all
income groups in a variety of locations suitable for residential development." (3.07.03B, pg. 56)
The future development of multi family residential dwelling units on this site consisting of 1, 2,
and 3 bedroom units will provide rental options for individuals with varying income levels that is
currently lacking in this area of Meridian.
• "Permit new development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time
of final approval and development is contiguous to the City." (3.01.01F, pg. 45)
City services will be provided and extended with the development of this site.
• "Require appropriate landscaping and buffers along transportation corridor (setback,
vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.)
The proposed development exceeds 5 acres in size; therefore the site must contain a minimum of
10 percent open space in accord with UDC 11-3G. To buffer the proposed multi family use from
the industrial zoned property to the west, staff is recommending an 8 -foot tall solid fence, a 15 -
foot wide landscape buffer adjacent to the parking area and a minimum of a 25 foot landscape
Overland Park (CUP -14-009) PAGE 3
buffer adjacent to the buildings on the west boundary of the development. The landscape buffers
must comply with the standards in accord with UDC 11 -3B -9C. With subsequent phases, the
north and south boundary of the proposed development will be buffered with future commercial
developments.
• "Restrict private curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets." (3.06.02D)
With the development of the Kennedy Commercial development, the previous developer
constructed a private street (S. Tech Lane) that provides access to the proposed multi family
development via W. Overland Road. This roadway is the primary access to the proposed
development. The applicant has not provided any access to the future office complex, north of the
proposed development nor a second outlet for traffic to funnel out of the multi family
development to S. Tech Lane. The applicant should revise the site plan and provide vehicular
access along the eastern boundary of the development to the future office complex to the north
and provide a second driveway connection from the proposed multi family development to S.
Tech Lane.
• "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote
neighborhood connectivity." (3.07.02C)
The submitted site plan depicts two (2) pedestrian connections to the future retail development to
the south and one (1) pedestrian connection to the future office complex to the north of the
development.
• "Locate high-density development, where possible, near open space corridors or other
permanent major open space and park facilities, Old Town, and near major access thoroughfares."
(3.07.02, pg. 55)
The proposed multi family development is located near W. Overland Road which is a major
mobility corridor through the City.
VIII. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE
A. Purpose Statement of Zone:
The purpose of the commercial districts is to provide for the retail and service needs of the
community in accordance with the Meridian comprehensive plan. Six (6) 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.
B. Schedule of Use: Unified Development Code (UDC) Table 11-213-2 lists the permitted,
accessory, conditional, and prohibited uses in the C -G zoning district. The proposed multi -family
development is listed as a conditional use in the C -G zoning district. The specific use standards
listed in UDC 11-4-3-27 for multi -family developments apply to development of this site.
C. Dimensional Standards: The dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-213-3 for the C -G
zoning district apply to development of this site.
D. Landscaping Standards:
1. Parking Lot Landscaping: All parking lot landscaping must comply with the standards set
forth in UDC 11-313-8C.
2. Per UDC 11-3G-3, the proposed multi -family development is required to provide 10 percent
open space in addition to the common open space required with the multi -family specific use
standards noted above.
Overland Park (CUP -14-009) PAGE 4
E. Parking Standards: UDC 11 -3C -6A requires off-street vehicle parking to be provided on the site.
For one bedroom units, 1.5 vehicle parking spaces are required per dwelling unit; at least one in a
covered carport or garage. For 2-3 bedroom units, 2 parking spaces; at least one in a covered
carport or garage. The clubhouse will require one space per 500 square feet of gross floor area in
accord with UDC 11 -3C -6B.
IX. ANALYSIS
A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation:
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CUP): A conditional use permit is requested for a multi -family
development in the GG zoning district, in accord with UDC Table 11-2B-2.
The proposed development consists of eleven (11) apartment buildings with a mix of 10 and 20 units,
3 stories in height, with a combination of (76) 1 -bedroom units; (81) 2 -bedroom units; and (33) 3 -
bedroom units for a total of 190 dwelling units on 8.67 acres of land. The gross density proposed for
this development is 21.9 dwelling units to the acre.
Specific Use Standards: The specific use standards for multi -family developments are contained in
UDC 11-4-3-27. These standards apply to site design, common open space, site amenities,
architectural character, landscaping, and maintenance. The proposed project generally complies with
the following standards.
a. Setbacks: Buildings shall provide a minimum setback of 10 feet, unless a greater
setback is otherwise required by the UDC. (UDC Table 11-2B-3 does not have a
minimum setback for structures.) All of the buildings along the perimeter are setback in
excess of 10 feet per this standard however; the recorded development agreement
requires a 25 foot landscape buffer/setback along the west boundary. The buildings
along the western perimeter are setback a minimum of 28 feet in compliance with both
the DA and the UDC.
b. Service areas: On-site service areas, outdoor storage areas, waste storage, disposal
facilities, and transformer or utility vaults shall be fully screened from view from any
public street. The proposed trash enclosures are internal to the proposed development
and will have limited visibility from the site in accord with this requirement. All other
items listed above should also be screened from view of the public streets.
c. Private, usable open space: A minimum of 80 square feet of private, usable open space
is required for each unit. This requirement can be satisfied through porches, patios, decks,
and/or enclosed yards. Landscaping, entryway and other access ways shall not count
toward this requirement. The applicant has not submitted a floor plan for the proposed
multi family units therefore staff cannot verb that the proposed units comply with this
requirement. The applicant states in the narrative that all of the units will have 80 square
feet ofprivate patio area. With future certificate ofzoning compliance application, the
applicant shall verb the square footages of the patio area through the submittal of a
floor plan. All of the units must have 80 square feet of patio space and/or private open
space.
d. Developments with 20 units or more shall provide the following: A property
management office, a maintenance storage area, a central mailbox location (including
provisions for parcel mail), and a directory and map of the development at a convenient
location. The property management office, maintenance storage area, central mailbox
location and directory map are not depicted on the submitted plans and will need to be
included to the plans submitted with the certificate of zoning compliance application.
NOTE. Staff anticipates all of these items will he provided near or in the proposed
Overland Park (CUP -14-009) PAGE 5
clubhouse based on the submitted floor plan however, these items were not detailed on
the plans.
e. Parking: UDC 11 -3C -6A requires off-street vehicle parking to be provided on the site.
For one bedroom units, 1.5 vehicle parking spaces are required per dwelling unit; at least
one in a covered carport or garage. For 2-3 bedroom units, 2 parking spaces; at least one
in a covered carport or garage. Based on the unit mix (76 —1 bedroom units and 114 - 2
and 3bedroom units), a combined total of 342 covered and uncovered parking stalls are
required. The clubhouse will require one space per 500 square feet of gross floor area.
The applicant is proposing a 174 covered parking stalls (114 garages and 60 carports)
and 212 uncovered parking stalls which exceeds the minimum requirements for the multi-
family units. The applicant has not provided the square footage of the clubhouse.
Because the site exceeds the required parking stalls, staff believes adequate parking
has been provided on the site to accommodate the clubhouse without any changes to
the parking ratio. With the submittal of certificate of zoning compliance application,
the applicant must include the square footage of the proposed clubhouse so staff can
verify the parking ratio for the proposed development.
The submitted site plan depicts a single bike rack near the proposed clubhouse. The UDC
requires a total of 15 bike spaces to be provided on the site. Because the proposed
development is located near a mobility corridor, a college, recreational uses and a public
park, staff believes additional bike parking should be provided on the site as follows:
• Provide two (2) bike racks near the buildings on the north boundary;
• Provide two (2) bike racks near the buildings on the south boundary; and
• Provide one (1) bike rack near the clubhouse as proposed.
With the submittal of certificate of zoning compliance application, the applicant must
provide details of bike racks.
f. Common Open Space Design Requirements: UDC 11-4-3.27C requires a minimum of
250 square feet of outdoor common open space for each unit containing more than 500
square feet and up to 1,200 square feet of living area. (The common open space shall be
not less than 400 square feet in area, and shall have a minimum length and width
dimension of 20 feet.) Because all of the proposed units contain between 500 and 1,200
square feet of living area, a minimum of 17, 000 sf of common open space is required to
be provided. Because the site exceeds 5 acres in size, the site must also comply with the
open space standards set forth in UDC 11-3G. Based on these requirements a total of
1.26 acres of open space is required by the UDC. The amount of open space proposed for
the entire development is approximately 2.25 acres which exceeds the UDC requirement.
NOTE: The open space has been reduced slightly from what the applicant has depicted
on the site plan because staff is recommending a future driveway access to the office
complex proposed north of this development and a second driveway connection from
the proposed development to S. Tech Lane. (See analysis below).
g. Amenities: All multi -family developments shall provide for quality of life, open space
and recreation amenities to meet the particular needs of the residents. UDC 11-4-3-27
requires multi -family developments with more than 100 units provide the decision
making body shall require additional amenities to commensurate to the size of the
proposed development. The applicant is proposing the following qualifying amenities: 1)
a covered picnic area with fire pit and barbeques, 2) multiple large open grassy areas,
3)a clubhouse, 4) fitness facility, 5) pool and hot tub and 6)5 percent additional open
space. Staff is supportive of the proposed amenities for the development.
Overland Park (CUP -14-009) PAGE 6
h. Elevations: Elevations are required to meet the architectural standards set forth in UDC
11-4-3-27E. As mentioned above, the applicant is proposing to construct a total of eleven
apartment buildings on the site each with the same architectural design. The proposed
buildings provide variations in the roof planes and modulation in the fagades and all of
the structures are proposed to incorporate a mix of building materials to include the
following: two (2) wood siding materials (board and batten and horizontal lap),
architectural shingles, belly bands, decorative corbels, decorative rails, decorative
columns and brick (see Exhibit A. 4).
While staff is supportive of the proposed material changes, the development may have a
monotonous design concept and the applicant has not proposed any color schemes or
variations to the building design. At a minimum, staff is recommending modifications to
the proposed building design as follows:
• The development should consists of four (4) distinct color palettes of earth tone
colors to provide color variation;
• The applicant should provide four (4) distinct building designs within the
development. Each apartment building may use the same building form/design but
should incorporate a mix of three siding materials (cedar shake, stucco, horizontal
lap and board and batten), brick and/or stone wainscot, decorative corbels,
decorative rails, decorative column, belly bands and architectural roof shingles;
• The proposed clubhouse should be designed with the same building materials as the
apartment buildings to maintain a cohesive design theme; and
• The site will also consist of multiple carport structures. The submitted a carport is a
flat roofed single post design. The proposed carports should be painted or powder
coated to complement the overall color scheme for the development.
Compliance with the aforementioned design changes will be required with the submittal
of a certificate of zoning compliance and administrative design review application.
i. Landscaping: Staff has reviewed the submitted landscape for compliance with the UDC.
The landscape plan, labeled Landscape Concept Plan, is approved with the following
modifications/notes:
All street facing elevations shall have landscaping along their foundation as
follows: the landscaped area shall be at least 3 -feet wide and have an evergreen
shrub with a minimum mature height of 24 inches for every 3 linear feet of
foundation. The remainder of the area shall be landscaped with ground cover
plans. The landscape plan submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance
for the structures should comply with this requirement.
• Parking lot landscaping must be installed in accord with the standards listed in
UDC 11-313-8C. Each planter island that serves a single row of parking spaces is
required to be landscaped with at least one tree and shall be covered with low
shrubs, lawn, or other vegetative groundcover.
• A written certificate of completion shall be prepared by the landscape architect,
designer, or qualified nurseryman responsible for the landscape plan and
submitted prior to City Engineer's signature on the Final Plat. All standards of
installation shall apply as listed in UDC 11-313-14.
j. Maintenance and Ownership Responsibilities: Per UDC 11-4-3-27G, a legally binding
document shall be recorded that states the maintenance and ownership responsibilities for
Overland Park (CUP -14-009) PAGE 7
the management of the development, including, but not limited to, structures, parking,
common areas, and other development features. The applicant must comply with this
requirement and a single entity must manage the entire development.
Site Plan: Staff has reviewed the submitted site plan and is recommending the following
revisions prior to the submittal of a certificate of zoning compliance application:
1. Provide a total of five (5) bike racks within the development, each capable of
parking 5 bikes.
Provide a vehicular access along the eastern boundary of the development to the
future office complex to the north or obtain approval of a property boundary
adjustment to reconfigure the parcels so the future office parcel has frontage/access
to S. Tech Lane.
3. To improve internal site circulation, staff and the Police Department recommends
the applicant extend the driveway north of the proposed clubhouse to S. Tech Lane.
4. Several of the proposed residential structures and the clubhouse are located over
existing sewer, water and irrigation easements established with the Kennedy
Commercial Subdivision. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the applicant
will have to relinquish these easements and establish any new applicable easements
in accord with Public Works and the Irrigation District standards.
To buffer the proposed multi -family use from the industrial zoned property to the
west, the applicant should construct an 8 -foot tall solid fence, a 15 -foot wide
landscape buffer adjacent to the parking area and a minimum of a 25 -foot
landscape buffer adjacent to the buildings on the west boundary of the development.
The landscape buffers must comply with the standards in accord with UDC 11-311-
9C.
6. To enhance internal pedestrian connectivity the applicant should provide a 5 -foot
wide walkway in the two (2) 20 -foot wide planter islands north of the pedestrian
connections located on the south boundary of the development. The eastern most
pathway between the two (2) twenty-plexes should align with the walkway in the
planter island.
Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC) and Design Review (DES): A CZC application is
required to be submitted prior to issuance of building permits for any of the lots. The applicant is
required to obtain approval of a design review application for the proposed structures and site
design for the multi -family development. This application may be submitted concurrently with
the CZC application. The applicant must comply with the design standards listed in UDC 11-3A-
19 and the guidelines contained in the Meridian Design Manual.
In summary staff finds the proposed project complies with the future land use map, applicable
policies of the Comprehensive Plan and is conditioned to comply with the applicable
development standards in the UDC. Based on the aforementioned analysis, staff recommends
approval of the subject application.
