Public Hearing for Walmart Drive-Through CUP (H-2016- 0077) by Sunday Bougher of SGA Design Group Located at 5001 N Ten Mile Road Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission July 21, 2016 Page 3 of 6 1. Request: Conditional Use Permit for a Drive- Through Establishment in the C-G Zoning District Yearsley: And so with that I would like to open the public hearing for file number H-2016-0077, Walmart Drive-thru, and let's begin with the staff report. Parsons: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. The item before you this evening is the Walmart drive-thru. The site is located on the northwest corner of North Ten Mile Road and West McMillan Road . It's currently zoned C-G within the city limits and the property consists of 21.52 acres of land. In 2013 the city approved a certificate of zoning compliance and design review application to construct a Walmart store on this site. At the time of that approval there were no other residential uses in the area and that store did develop with a drive-thru pharmacy on the site. So, that particular drive-thru was approved as an accessory use, because it was not located within 300 feet of a residential use or another drive-thru. So, the application this evening is to establish another drive-thru use on this site and because this one is -- will be within 300 feet of an existing and a planned drive-thru in the area, staff felt it prudent -- or the ordinance requires them to go through the conditional use process and have your approval on this item this evening. Site modifications for the project will include, basically, restriping some existing parking and adding a canopy over it and, then, also adding a 1,525 square foot addition to the existing Walmart store. The applicant did provide some elevation and renderings for you this evening. In our discussions with the applicants they are aware of our design standards and our ordinances, but we really wanted to express to them that this addition and this canopy really need to blend in with the architecture of the existing Walmart store and so as you can see here in this rendering they have made every attempt to do that. So, one of the conditions of approval tonight is that we are asking or have included that these renderings -- or these elevations, again, match the Walmart store and comply with what you're seeing this evening. Access to this development was approved with the development of the Walmart store , so that already exists to -- access point exists at McMillan Road and North Ten Mile Road. The comprehensive plan for this property, again, is commercial, so the C- G zoning is appropriate for this site as well. Based on the application submitted, the proposed drive-thru would operate between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. -- or 12:00 a.m. I guess, if you will, and because this site does not abut any residential uses, there really is no restriction on the hours of operation for this site, it's all bound by public streets on all three sides, so there is adequate separation for any future residential that may develop farther to the west of this site. Staff has not received any written testimony on the application. We are recommending approval of this application this evening and with that I will conclude my presentation and stand for any questions you might have. Yearsley: Are there any questions? McCarvel: Mr. Chairman? Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission July 21, 2016 Page 4 of 6 Yearsley: Commissioner McCarvel. McCarvel: Bill, is this -- is this really a drive-thru or shall I wait for the applicant? Or is it just kind of like a Sonic, pull in, pick up, get your stuff delivered and pull out? Parsons: Mr. Chair, Members of the Commission, in our interpretation of how the drive-thru is explained in our definition, we felt at the time that the application came in that it was a drive-thru, so that's the process that we sent them through. You can tell in our staff report that we prepared for you, we did kind of explain our rationale behind that and why we thought they should go through that process. So, that's why we are here this evening. Maybe looking forward maybe we should re-analyze that and see -- take a closer look at that, but right now the application before you is -- they are conducting business in their vehicle and that's how we treat it, so -- Yearsley: Thank you. Any other questions? Would the applicant like to come forward? Please state your name and address for the record. Cho: Yong Cho with SK Design Group here for the applicant Sunday Bougher, who was not able to attend today. To address your comments, I can -- I can explain the process of -- the new program being offered. It's -- customers order their groceries online. Customers come in to -- come in at a designated time to the identified parking space and the staff employees will cart out the groceries for them. Existing pharmacy drive-thru service will be maintained, although the routing is slightly changed. I don't have any additional comments. We concur with the staff report and have no objections. Yearsley: Thank you. Are there any questions? Oliver: Mr. Chairman? Yearsley: Commissioner Oliver. Oliver: I just real quick -- is this -- this is, obviously, something I have not seen at any Walmarts. Is this something that Walmart as a whole are trying to change to go to a model? Cho: It's a new program that's being implemented in a number of facilities, but it's brand new, so that's why you have not seen it. I mean some of the others are starting to look at this type of service. It's at the beginning. It's at the beginning of that. You will likely see a lot more of this service being provided in other Walmarts. Oliver: Thank you. Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission July 21, 2016 Page 5 of 6 Yearsley: Any other questions? Thank you. Since there is no one here to testify I don't think we need to have the applicant come back up. So, at that point I would entertain a motion to close the public hearing on file number H-2016-0077. Wilson: Mr. Chair? Yearsley: Commissioner Wilson. Wilson: I move we close the public hearing H-2016-0077. McCarvel: Second. Yearsley: I have a motion and a second to close the public hearing. All in favor say aye. Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Yearsley: We already closed the public hearing. I don't know -- I think we are -- we don't need anymore, so -- we are good. Thank you. So, any comments or thoughts? McCarvel: Mr. Chairman? Yearsley: Commissioner McCarvel. McCarvel: I think it -- the drawings, the renderings look good. They are doing their best to make it blend in with the existing building and glad you're able to find it and it will be an interesting service. Yearsley: Absolutely. Thank you. So, with no other comments -- I have a tendency to agree, I think it looks good. I like how they have staged it. And so with that I would entertain a motion. McCarvel: Mr. Chairman? Yearsley: Commissioner McCarvel. McCarvel: After considering all staff, applicant, and public testimony, I move to approve file number H-2016-0077 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of July 21st, 2016, with no modifications. Wilson: Second. Oliver: Second. CITY OF MERIDIAN FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND DECISION & ORDER CASE NO(S).

East: Single-family residential properties in Tiburon Meadows Subdivision, zoned R-4 & R-8 3. South: Church and Coleman Homes office, zoned L-O 4. West: N. Ten Mile Road and grocery store (Albertson’s), zoned C-N C. History of Previous Actions:  In 2004, the subject property was rezoned (RZ-04-007) to L-O with a development agreement (Instrument No. 104112889).  In 2005, the subject property was included in a final plat for Tiburon Meadows EXHIBIT A Linder Pet Medical Care – CUP H-2016-0064 PAGE 3 Subdivision as Lot 1, Block 1.  In 2013, Council approved a rezone application for the subject property from the L-O to the TN-R zoning district with the requirement for a development agreement (DA). The rezone was desired so that the property could develop with a single four-plex. However, the developer at the time never executed the DA so the property was never rezoned and the approval has expired. D. Utilities: 1. Public Works: a. Location of sewer: A 6-inch diameter sanitary sewer is stubbed to this property from W. Sheryl Drive. b. Location of water: A 2-inch diameter water service is stubbed to this property from W. Sheryl Drive. c. Issues or concerns: None E. Physical Features: 1. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: There are no waterways that cross this site. 2. Hazards: Staff is unaware of any hazards that may exist on this site. 3. Flood Plain: This site does not lie within a floodplain or floodway. VII. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS This property is designated Mixed Use – Community (MU-C) on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (FLUM). The purpose of this designation is to allocate areas where community- serving uses and dwellings are seamlessly integrated into the urban fabric. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses, including residential, and to avoid mainly single-use and strip commercial type buildings. The applicant proposes to develop the site with an animal care facility which will contribute to the variety of uses in this area and provide a needed service to area residents. Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the existing office use (staff analysis in italics):  “Restrict private curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets.” (3.06.02D) Access for this property is provided via W. Sheryl Drive, a local street; no access to N. Ten Mile Road, an arterial street, is proposed or approved.  “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) This site is currently in the City and urban services were stubbed to this property with the development of Tiburon Meadows Subdivision.  “Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the Area of City Impact.” The proposed animal care facility will contribute to the variety of commercial uses in the city.  “Require appropriate landscaping and buffers along transportation corridor (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.) (3.06.02F) EXHIBIT A Linder Pet Medical Care – CUP H-2016-0064 PAGE 4 A 25-foot wide landscaped street buffer is required along N. Ten Mile Road, an arterial street, with development of the site.  “Restrict private curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets.” (3.06.02D) Access is not proposed or allowed via N. Ten Mile Road, an arterial street; access is proposed via W. Sheryl Drive, an existing local street.  “Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels.” (3.06.01F) The proposed animal care facility should be compatible with adjacent residential, church, commercial, and office uses.  “Identify and encourage medical service related industry which are currently lacking.” The proposed animal care facility will provide a necessary service to area residents.  “Encourage infill development.” (3.01.02B) The subject property is surrounded by property that has been developed in the City. The development of this vacant property will allow city services to be extended to the site as intended and provided for. VIII. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE A. Purpose Statement of Zone: Per UDC 11-2B-1, the purpose of the commercial districts is to provide for the retail and service needs of the community in accord with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Six 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. Allowed uses in the L-O district consist of office uses and adaptive re-use of residential structures with limited hours of operation. B. Schedule of Use: Unified Development Code (UDC) Table 11-2B-2 lists the principal permitted (P), accessory (A), conditional (C), and prohibited (-) uses in the L-O zoning district. Any use not explicitly listed, or listed as a prohibited use is prohibited. An animal care facility is listed as a conditional use in the L-O zoning district, subject to the specific uses listed in UDC 11-4-3-1. C. Dimensional Standards: Development of the site should be consistent with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Tables 11-2B-2 for the L-O zoning district. IX. ANALYSIS A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: Conditional use permit (CUP): The applicant requests approval of a 4,397 s.f. animal care facility on 0.31 of an acre in the L-O zoning district as required by UDC Table 11-2B-2. The facility also offers mobile pet care service. Specific Use Standards: The specific use standards for animal care facilities listed in UDC 11-4- 3-1apply to the use of this site as follows: A. All animals shall be indoors at all times, except when being exercised. At such times, animals shall be under the supervision and direct control of a caretaker. EXHIBIT A Linder Pet Medical Care – CUP H-2016-0064 PAGE 5 B. The facility owner and/or operator shall comply with all state and local regulations relative to such a facility and shall maintain housekeeping practices designed to prevent the creation of a nuisance and to reduce noise and odor to a minimum. The applicant’s narrative states the enclosed yard area will have a permeable artificial turf for health safety reasons which will be washed daily. This area is proposed to be screened from the neighbor to the east by a 6-foot tall vinyl fence and low water use shrubs along the parking lot frontage. Site Plan: The site plan submitted with this application depicts an animal care facility and associated parking, landscaping and fencing. Access: Access is proposed via W. Sheryl Drive, a local street, in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-3. Direct access via N. Ten Mile Road is prohibited. Landscaping: Landscaping is required to be installed on the site in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B. A 25-foot wide street buffer is required along N. Ten Mile Road, an arterial street; and a 10-foot wide buffer is required along W. Sheryl Drive, a local street as set forth in UDC Table 11-2B-3. Landscaping is required to be installed within the buffer in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. A minimum 20-foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to residential uses as set forth in UDC Table 11-2B-3 with landscaping installed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-9C. Artificial turf is proposed on the landscape plan in this area; the UDC requires buffer areas to be comprised of, but not limited to, a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubs, lawn or other vegetative groundcover. The applicant should either revise the landscape plan included in Exhibit A.3 to depict vegetated groundcover within the 20-foot wide buffer to residential uses on the east side of the property as required by UDC 11-3B-9C.1; or, apply for alternative compliance as set forth in UDC 11-5B-5. Parking lot landscaping is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8C. The proposed plan complies with these standards. Parking: Off-street parking is required to be provided on the site in accord with UDC Table 11- 3C-6B. One vehicle space is required for every 500 s.f. of gross floor area. Based on 4,397 s.f., a minimum of 8 parking spaces are required; 9 are depicted on the site plan in accord with UDC standards with an additional parking space in a garage for the vehicle used in the mobile pet care service. The applicant states they currently have 2-3 employees working at one time with up to 5 in the future if another veterinarian is hired. The applicant states the owner has an agreement with the church to the north for employee parking which would leave all 9 stalls available for customer parking. Staff recommends the applicant submit a recorded shared parking agreement with that property owner in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3C-7B. Based on the number of vehicle parking stalls (9), a bicycle rack capable of holding a minimum of one (1) bicycle is required to be provided per UDC 11-3C-6G in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3C-5C. A total of 2 bicycle parking spaces are proposed to be provided in compliance with this standard. Sidewalk: The UDC (11-3A-17) requires a 5-foot wide detached sidewalk along N. Ten Mile Road, an arterial street; and a 5-foot wide attached sidewalk along W. Sheryl Drive. An attached sidewalk already exists along both streets. Staff is not recommending the sidewalk along Ten Mile be reconstructed as a detached sidewalk. EXHIBIT A Linder Pet Medical Care – CUP H-2016-0064 PAGE 6 Fencing: The existing wood fence along the east boundary of the site is proposed to be replaced with a 6-foot tall vinyl fence on the property line with a 6-foot tall chain-link fence on the interior of the vinyl fence. A 6-foot tall chain-link fence exists along the north boundary of the site. A yard is proposed along the east boundary of the site that is enclosed by a 6-foot tall chain-link fence where animals can exercise outside. The specific use standards for animal care facilities require animals to be under the supervision and direct control of a caretaker at all times when outside (see UDC 11-4-3-1). Mechanical equipment: Outdoor mechanical equipment is proposed to be screened with shrubs and placed along the north boundary of the site as shown on the landscape plan in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-12B. Hours of Operation: The proposed hours of operation are 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday thru Friday and 10:00 am to 1:30 pm on Saturday. The L-O zoning district restricts hours of operation from 6 am to 10 pm. Elevations: Building elevations were submitted with this application for the future structure on the site, included in Exhibit A.4. Building materials consist of stucco with stained wood siding on the upper 5 feet of the building and stone veneer accents (grey tones) with white wood trim around the windows. The structure is required to comply with the standards listed in the Architectural Standards Manual; review for compliance with these standards will take place with the Design Review application submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application. Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC): A CZC application is required to be submitted for approval of the proposed use and to ensure compliance with UDC standards prior to issuance of building permits. Design Review: A design review application is required to be submitted concurrently with the CZC application for approval of the site design and future structure on the site to ensure compliance with the design standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19 and the Architectural Standards Manual.
