B. Newspaper notifications published on: November 23 and December 7, 2015
C. Radius notices mailed to properties within 300 feet on: November 19, 2015
D. Applicant posted notice on site by: December 1, 2015
VI. LAND USE
A. Existing Land Use(s): This property consists of rural residential/agricultural land that has not yet been
developed, zoned C-G.
B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning:
North: Vacant/agricultural land, zoned C-G
West: S. Eagle Road/I-84, zoned C-G
South: Undeveloped land and an ACHD park and ride lot, zoned C-G
East: Residential properties in Jewell Subdivision, zoned R1 in Ada County; and commercial property
(Zamzow’s), zoned C-G
C. History of Previous Actions:
In 1995, this property was annexed with a C-G zoning district as part of the development area for
the I-84 Center, which consisted of 73.5 acres of land (Ord. #719; Langly Associates, Inc.). A
development agreement (DA) was required as a provision of annexation to be entered into prior to
the preliminary plat being approved and required all of the property to develop as a commercial
planned development. A conditional use permit for a planned commercial development was also
approved for a 700,000+/- square foot retail center but has since expired. Note: There is additional
land (52+/- acres) to the north that was part of these applications that is not part of the subject
application. The applicant for the previously approved project chose not to proceed with
development; therefore, the DA was never executed; however, the provisions of annexation still
apply to development of the property.
A property boundary adjustment (PBA-14-008) was tentatively approved on July 14, 2014;
however, final approval was never obtained. A record of survey (#9885) was approved which
adjusted the boundary of the site to include frontage on E. Overland Road. The PBA must be
finalized with the Planning Division prior to the issuance of a building permit for the Norco site
(phase 1).
VII. ANALYSIS
Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation:
The applicant proposes to modify the previously required provisions of the DA consistent with the
development plan currently proposed for the southern 21.25 acre portion of the 73.5 acre annexation
EXHIBIT A
Eagle Commons at Overland – MDA H-2015-0024 3
area (see Exhibit A.3). The DA was required as a provision of annexation of the property but was never
executed; development of the property as a whole is still tied to the provisions associated with the
annexation. Note: When the property to the north develops, the developer of that property will also be
required to enter into a DA; the provisions of this MDA do not apply to development of that property –
the provisions associated with the annexation still apply, unless otherwise amended through a future
development agreement modification.
The previously approved conceptual development plan depicted a power center consisting of 700,000
square feet of commercial retail uses on this site and the 52+/- property to the north (see Exhibit A.2).
The DA provisions included in the Findings for the annexation of the property are included in Exhibit
A.3. Because the project was approved 20 years ago, a lot of these provisions are now standard
development requirements contained in the UDC and are unnecessary to include in a DA. Other
provisions that may still be applicable are listed below with staff’s analysis in italics.
a. Prior to submittal of any plats, conditional use applications, or building plans, donate to the City of
Meridian a 100’ x 100’ well site at the proposed site and meet all the criteria of the State of Idaho
Department of Water Resources and the City of Meridian. The City Engineer has deemed the well
lot is no longer necessary to be provided.
b. The property is required to be subdivided, a conditional use permit is required for all development
on the property, and design review is required for all structures. Staff has verified that the subject
three parcels are “original parcels of record” as defined by UDC 11-1A-1; however, the property
boundary adjustment (PBA) that received tentative approval in 2014 needs to be finalized to reflect
the current boundary of the site. With finalization of the PBA, staff supports the applicant’s request
to be allowed one building permit to construct the building for Norco; prior to issuance of
subsequent building permits, the property should be subdivided prior to issuance of a Certificate of
Zoning Compliance. Design review is required per the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19 and the
guidelines in the Meridian Design Manual; it’s not necessary to be included in the DA. Staff does
not recommend that a CUP is required for all uses, only those that require CUP approval in the C-
G zoning district.
STAFF’S ANALYSIS ON THE CONCEPTUAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PROPOSED BY THE APPLICANT IS AS
FOLLOWS:
Conceptual Development Plan: The applicant proposes to develop the site in three (3) phases. The
first phase will include the construction of a 2-story 86,000+/- square foot store for Norco and
associated parking and drive aisles. The ground floor will have a retail showroom for medical and
industrial supplies with a warehouse and retail storage. The second floor will house a new billing office
for the medical side of Norco. The second phase will include the construction of an 85,000 to 95,000
square foot single-story commercial/retail store. The third phase will consist of single pad site (Lot 3)
along the west boundary of the site; no specific users are identified at this time but will consist of uses
allowed in the C-G district per UDC Table 11-2B-2.
Future Land Use Map (FLUM): The FLUM designation for this site is Mixed Use – Regional (MU-
R). The purpose of the MU-R designation is to provide a mix of employment, retail, and residential
dwellings and public uses near major arterial intersections. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses
together, including residential, and to avoid predominantly single-use developments such as a regional
retail center with only restaurants and other commercial uses. Developments should be anchored by
uses that have a regional draw with the appropriate supporting uses. Residential uses should comprise a
minimum of 10% of the development area at densities ranging from 6 to 40 units/acre. Retail
commercial uses should comprise a maximum of 50% of the development area. There is neither a
minimum nor maximum imposed on non-retail commercial uses such as office, clean industry or
entertainment uses (see pgs. 30-31, Comprehensive Plan for more information).
EXHIBIT A
Eagle Commons at Overland – MDA H-2015-0024 4
The site is located near the northeast corner of S. Eagle Road and E. Overland Road, a major arterial
intersection. The application states that the Norco store proposed with Phase 1 will employ
approximately 200 people. The large retail store proposed in Phase 2 will likely provide a much needed
service in this area; and the development of Lot 3 should add to the variety of commercial uses in the
development. No residential uses are proposed. Because The Village shopping center further to the
north at Eagle Road and Fairview Avenue has developed since this property was annexed, Staff feels
the existing plan for a power center may no longer be feasible; therefore staff supports the proposed
employment use associated with the Norco site and a large retail store with supporting uses on Lot 3;
however, because this site is designated MU-R, residential uses should be included in the plan. Because
this site is part of a larger area that is also in the MU-R designated area, and is subject to the same
development agreement requirement, staff would encourage a residential component to be included
with development of the property to the north to provide the mix of uses required in this area.
Access: Access is proposed to be provided by a driveway via E. Overland Road at a partially signalized
intersection (E. Overland Rd./S. Silverstone Way). The submitted concept plan depicts a 30-foot wide
commercial driveway around the perimeter of the site which will provide temporary access to the Norco
site and two (2) emergency accesses for the Fire Department are proposed at the west boundary of the
site via S. Rackham Way and may be gated until such time as Lot 3 develops.
Staff has consulted with ACHD on the transportation requirements associated with development of this
site and based on their comments they are requesting the following from the developer when the
property is platted:
1) A Traffic Impact Study (TIS);
2) The extension of S. Silverstone Way (with curb, gutter and sidewalk) as a collector street from E.
Overland Road through the site to the north property boundary for future extension in accord with
ACHD standards. This would allow both the Elk’s and the Zamzow’s properties access to the signalized
intersection. Staff recommends the applicant deed the right-of-way of the collector road to ACHD
prior to subdividing the property so the roadway can be constructed by the applicant with the
first phase of development;
3) Rackham Way would need to be improved as a local street (with curb, gutter and sidewalk) in accord
with ACHD standards. NOTE: At some point in the future, S. Rackham Way may re-align farther
towards the east in accord with the development agreement in effect for the Overland Village
annexation (AZ-08-001)(DA #109134179); and
4) Per an existing agreement, contribute funds toward the cost of the existing signal at Overland and
Silverstone.
Further, Staff recommends right-of-way be expanded to the east property boundary to provide public
street frontage to Parcel #R4626240075; this will allow for the development of a stub street in that
location in the future if the property to the east redevelops commercially as anticipated.
Landscaping: A 35-foot wide street buffer is required along E. Overland Road, an entryway corridor
and a 20-foot wide street buffer will be required adjacent to the future collector road; and a 10-foot
wide street buffer is required along S. Rackham Way, a local street, per UDC Table 11-2B-3 in accord
with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C.
Typically, a 25-foot wide landscape buffer to residential uses is required as proposed along the east
boundary of the site per UDC Table 11-2B-3 in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-9C. If a
collector road is constructed along the east boundary as desired by staff and ACHD, the applicant will
only be required to construct a 20-foot wide landscape buffer in accord with UDC Table 11-2B-3.
Lighting: All lighting proposed on the site shall comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-11C.
Light fixtures that have a maximum output of 1,800 lumens or more are required to have an opaque top
EXHIBIT A
Eagle Commons at Overland – MDA H-2015-0024 5
to prevent uplighting; the bulb should not be visible and should have a full cutoff shield; and should be
placed such that the effective zone of light (as documented by the photometric test report) shall not
trespass on abutting residential properties.
Waterways: The Fivemile Creek runs east/west along the southern boundary and across the proposed
driveway via E. Overland Road to the east boundary of this site. The creek shall remain open as a
natural amenity and shall not be piped or otherwise covered and shall be protected during construction.
Fencing along the waterway shall not prevent access to the waterway, unless Council deems fencing
should be required in the interest of public safety in accord with UDC 11-3A-6B.
Pathways: A 10-foot wide multi-use pathway is proposed along the north boundary of the Five Mile
Creek in accord with the Pathways Master Plan; a public pedestrian easement is required to be
submitted to the City, approved by City Council and recorded. Landscaping is required to be installed
on both sides of the pathway in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-12C. All pathways
through common areas that are not visible from a public street shall be illuminated with a 4-foot
tall bollard style or other appropriate lighting source, unless otherwise waived by the Direct, per
UDC 11-3A-8H.
Minimum five-foot wide pedestrian walkways should be provided internally within the site from the
multi-use pathway connecting to the sidewalk along E. Overland Road to the building entrances with
each phase of development as set forth in UDC 11-3A-19A.4a.
Fencing: Fencing is not depicted on the site plan. Any fencing constructed on the site should comply
with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. Staff recommends a 6 to 8-foot tall fence/wall is
constructed along the east boundary of the site adjacent to residential uses with the first phase of
development. The applicant should work with the neighbors to determine an appropriate fencing height
and material.
Floodplain: A portion of this project lies within the Meridian Floodplain Overlay District. Prior to any
development occurring in the Overlay District, a floodplain permit application, including hydraulic and
hydrologic analysis is required to be completed and submitted to the city and approved by the
Floodplain Administrator, per MCC 10-6.
All future buildings on the site and the layout of the site is required to obtain design review
approval in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19 and the guidelines in the Meridian
Design Manual (or any updated versions thereof).
Hours of Operation: Business hours of operation in the C-G zoning district are restricted to 6:00 am to
11:00 pm when adjacent to residential uses unless modified through a conditional use permit, per UDC
11-2B-3A.4,
Design: All future structures on the site and the layout of the site are required to comply with the
standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19 and the guidelines contained in the Meridian Design Manual (or any
updated versions thereof).
The building proposed in phase 2 depicted on the conceptual development plan as “Major A”
should be restricted to a single-story in height as proposed by the applicant to better integrate
with the residential properties to the east.
In addition to the DA provisions associated with the annexation of this property that staff recommends
above still be included, Staff also recommends new provisions be added to the DA as discussed above.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed MDA per the provisions in Exhibit A.5. and the conceptual
development plan included in Exhibit A.4.
