E. Physical Features: 1, Canals/Ditches Irrigation: No major facilities. 2. Hazards: Staff is not aware of any hazards that exist on this property. 3. Flood Plain: This site does not lie within the Meridian Floodplain Overlay District. VII. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designates this site as Medium Density Residential (MDR). MDR designated areas allow smaller lots for residential purposes within City limits. Uses may include single-family homes at gross densities of 3 to 8 dwelling units per acre (d.u./acre). Knightsbridge Subdivision H-2016-0088 PAGE 3 EXHIBIT A The applicant proposes to develop the property with seventeen (17) single-family detached dwellings at a gross density of 3.30 dwelling units per acre (d.u./acre) and a net density of 4.73 d.u./acre. Staff finds the density proposed by the applicant with the preliminary plat is consistent with the MDR designation and the requested R-4 zoning dustrict. Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the proposed use (staff analysis in italics): 1. "Restrict private curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets."(3.06.02D, Page 53) The proposed development will connect to E. Victory Road which is an arterial street. Access to the subdivision will also be provided through an existing stub street frons the Sutherland Farm Subdivision (S. Proud Way) stubbed on the north boundmy of the proposed development. The applicant is also proposing to provide a stub street to the east and west (E. Moon Dipper Street), to provide for future interconnectivity. 2. "Require appropriate landscaping and buffers along transportation corridor (Setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.)." (3.06.02F) A 25 -foot wide landscaped street brffer is required along E. Victory Road, a principal arterial street in accord with. UDC Table I1 -2A-5. 3. "Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels." (3.06.0117, pg. 53) The proposed single-family residential development should be compatible with existing single-family homes as the lots sizes and homes are comparable in size to the, adjacent Sutherland Farms and nearby Karmelle Subdivisions. 4. "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, Page 56) If approved, the proposed single-family detached homes would contribute to the variety of housing types available within the City, consistent with the surrounding residential developments. "Require usable open space to be incorporated into new residential subdivision plats." (3.07.02A Page 55) UDC 11-3G-3 requires that a minimum of 10% of open space be provided. The plat as designed provides approximately 10.2% useable open space, or 0.53 acres. Staff has some concerns with the location of the proposed open space. The applicant is proposing all of the open space to be located adjacent to Victory Road. The location is not very kid -friendly. 6. "Require common area in all subdivisions." (3.07.02F) The proposed plat depicts a total of 0.53 acres of qualified open space. The applicant has provided the required open space for the development; However the UDC also requires that subdivisions of more than five (5) acres provide one (1) amenityfor the first twenty (20) acres and one additional amenity for every twenty (20) additional acres. The applicant is proposing to be included in the Sutherland Farms HOA and has initiated those discussions with. the HOA and has proposed to contribute to a future amenity in the existing 6 acre park within the Sutherland Farms Subdivision. Knightsbridge Subdivision H-2016-0088 PAGE 4 EXHIBIT A 7. "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote neighborhood connectivity." (3.07.02C) The preliminary plat shows a five foot sidewalk that would connect the proposed development to the Sutherland Farms Subdivision to the north, ccs well as to the proposed 5 -foot detached sidewalk along E. Victory Road. 8. "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) City services are available and will be extended by the developer to the proposed lots upon development of the site in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. 9. "Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect local roads and collectors to adjacent properties (stub streets). (3.03.020 Page 48) The proposed plat depicts connections to the existing stub street from the north. The applicant also proposes to provide stub streets to the east and to the west for fixture interconnectivity. 10. "Support infill of vacant lots in substantially developed, single-family areas at densities similar to surrounding development." (3.07.02I Page 55) The subject property is adjacent to existing single-family homes and similar lot sizes to the north in Sutherland Farms Subdivision. The proposed development, with the proposed zoning of R-4, is similar to the surrounding uses. All of the proposed lots exceed the minimum standards ofR-4 district. Based on the above analysis, staff finds that the proposed development is generally consistent with the comprehensive plan. VIII. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE (UDC) A. Purpose Statement of Zone: Per UDC 11-2A-1, the purpose of the residential districts is to provide for a range of housing opportunities consistent with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Residential districts are distinguished by the allowable density of dwelling units per acre and corresponding housing types that can be accommodated within the density range. The medium - low density residential (R-4) district allows a maximum gross density of 4 dwelling units per acre. B. Schedule of Use: Unified Development Code (UDC) Table 11-2A-5 lists the principal permitted (P), accessory (A), conditional (C), and prohibited (-) uses in the R-4 zoning district. Any use not explicitly listed, or listed as a prohibited use is prohibited. The proposed use of the site for single- family detached dwellings is principally permitted use in the R-4 zoning district. C. Dimensional Standards: Development of the site should be consistent with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-5 for the R-4 zoning district. D. Landscaping: Street buffer landscaping shall be installed in accordance with the standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-5 for the R-4 zoning district. E. Common Open Space and Site Amenity Requirements: Common open space and site amenities are required to be provided on the site in accord with the requirements listed in UDC 11-3G-3. E Off -Street Parking: Off-street parking is required in accord with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for single- family dwellings. Knightsbridge Subdivision H-2016-0088 PAGE 5 EXHIBIT A IX. ANALYSIS A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: Annexation & Zoning: The applicant has applied for annexation and zoning of 5.15 acres of land with an R-4 zoning district. As discussed above in Section VII, staff believes the proposed zoning and density is consistent with the vision of the Comprehensive Plan. The legal description submitted with the application, included in Exhibit C, shows the boundaries of the property proposed to be annexed. The property is contiguous to land that has been annexed. The City may require a development agreement (DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. To ensure the site develops as proposed and recommended by staff with this application, staff recommends a DA as a provision of annexation with the provisions included in Exhibit B. Preliminary Plat: The proposed plat consists of seventeen (17) building lots and two (2) common lots on 5.15 acres of land. The R-4 zoning district is proposed for the development (see Exhibit A.2). The gross density for the subdivision is 3.30 d.u./acre. The average lot size is 9,218 square feet. Existing Structures: There is an existing single family home on the site that will be demolished as part of this project. The home must be removed prior to obtaining City Engineer's signature on the final plat. Dimensional Standards: Development of this site is required to comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC 11-2A-3 and Table 11-2A-5 for the R-4 district. Staff has reviewed the proposed plat and found it to be in compliance with the R-4 dimensional standards. Block Length: The plat is required to comply with the block length standards listed in UDC I I - 6C -3F. Staff has reviewed the proposed plat and found it to be in compliance with the aforementioned standards. Access: Vehicular access is proposed for this site via an extension of S. Proud Way, and a direct vehicular access to E. Victory Road. Streets: All of the proposed streets depicted on the plat are public. A total of 40 -feet of right-of- way is proposed for S. Terri Drive and E. Moon Dipper Street with 33 feet between the back of curbs and a total of 50 -foot right-of-way is proposed for S. Proud Way with 36 feet between the back of curbs. The applicant will need to constrict proud way as a complete street, including the acquisition of property, or an easement from the adjacent property owner (Parcel # S 1121346802). The Master Street Map indicates a roundabout located at the intersection of S. Terri Drive and E. Victory Road. ACHD has indicated that they are in support of removing this from the Master Street map, but in order to do so, the applicant will need to request that from the ACHD Commission at a hearing to be scheduled in the future. ACHD is requiring that the applicant construct S Proud Way as one-half of a 36 -foot street section with curb, gutter, and 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalk within 50 -feet of right-of-way; plus 12 -feet of additional pavement beyond the centerline and 3 -foot wide gravel shoulder beyond the existing terminated roadway to the Proud Way/ Moon Dipper Street intersection. Sidewalks: Sidewalks are required along all public streets as set forth in UDC 11-3A-17. The applicant proposes to construct 5 -foot wide detached sidewalks throughout the development and a 5 -foot wide detached sidewalk adjacent to E. Victory Road. The 8 -foot parkways are required to comply with UDC 11 -3A -17E. As submitted the applicant has not provided the required trees per Knightsbridge Subdivision H-2016-0088 PAGE 6 EXHIBIT A the UDC. With the submittal of a final plat, the applicant must submit a revised landscape plan the meets the standard set forth in UDC 11 -3G -3B.5. Landscaping: A landscape plan was submitted with this application for the area proposed to be platted as shown in Exhibit A.4. A 25 -foot wide street buffer is required along E. Victory Road, an arterial street, per UDC Table 11-2A-5 and is required to be landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11 -3B -7C. The buffer shown on the landscape plan meets the requirements of the UDC however, because these are single common lots any fencing along said lots will have to be placed along the interior edge of the lot in accord with UDC 11-3B-7C2c All street buffers with detached sidewalks shall be measured from the ultimate curb location as anticipated by ACHD. Detached sidewalks shall have an average minimum separation of greater than four (4) feet to back of curb. The applicant shall construct a 25 foot landscape buffer as required by UDC 11-313-7. Tree Mitigation: If there are any existing trees on the site that are proposed to be removed, the applicant should contact Elroy Huff, City Arborist, at 888-3579 to schedule an appointment to confirm mitigation requirements prior to removal of any trees on the site. The landscape plan incorrectly notes that there are no existing trees on the site. Fencing: All fencing should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11 -3A -6B and 11-3A-7. The fencing shown on the landscape plan appears to meet the requirements of the UDC. Open Space: All new development is required to comply with the qualified open space and site amenity requirements listed in UDC 11-3G-3 which requires a minimum of 10% qualified open space and one site amenity for developments of this size. Based on the area of the preliminary plat (5.15 acres), a minimum of 0.51 acres of qualified useable open space is required to be provided as set forth in UDC 11 -3A -3B. Based on the preliminary plat the applicant is proposing 0.53 acres which is 10.2% of the proposed development. Open space consists of 8 -foot parkways and two (2) passive open space lots (50' X 100') that include the required street buffer adjacent to Victory Road. As noted above, staff is concerned about the location of the proposed open space for the development. The majority of the proposed open space is adjacent to an arterial roadway that will be widened in the future and will become busier with future development in the area. The applicant is proposing what is essentially an extra -wide landscape buffer along E. Victory Road. The fencing requirements in the UDC require that fencing be installed on the interior edge of the common lot. The proposal by the applicant will essentially require anyone who uses the open space to recreate along an arterial roadway. In addition to the open space provided for this development, the applicant requests this property be allowed to be included in the open space and site amenities calculations for the Sutherland Farm development, and that the qualified open space and site amenities for the overall development be considered to cover this portion of the site as well. A total of 13.24 acres or 11.3% qualified open space has already been constructed within the Sutherland Farm development along with the following site amenities: a 3/4 mile regional pathway along the Ridenbaugh Canal, a 5.9 acre park, a 2.5 acre park, tot lots, a gazebo, swing set and horseshoe pits. The applicant has discussed incorporating the subject property into the Sutherland Farm Homeowner's Association (HOA) with the HOA; however, an official agreement has not yet been reached. Amenity: The applicant is proposing to provide a "future large amenity" within Sutherland Farms existing 6 acre park. Prior to the Commission hearing, the applicant shall provide Knightsbridge Subdivision H-2016-0088 PAGE 7 EXHIBIT A details of the proposed amenity proposed for the 6 acre park in the Sutherland Farms development as well as the time frame in which the amenity would be constructed. Because the applicant is proposing to be included in the Sutherland Farms HOA and to be subject the their CC&R's, staff supports the applicant's request provided that the Sutherland Farm HOA agrees to allow this property to be incorporated into their HOA. If not, staff recommends the plat is revised to provide the full 10% qualified open space and one site amenity on this site. If an agreement cannot be reached between the two parties, staff recommends that the applicant bifurcate the landscape buffer from the passive open space (Lot 1, Block 1 and Lot 7, Block 3) and create a more central open space lot that one amenity that Knightsbridge community can use and maintain that is not located adjacent to Victory Road. Pressurized Irrigation (PI): An underground PI system is required to be provided to each lot in the subdivision as proposed in accord with UDC 11-3A-15. Building Elevations: The applicant is proposing to construct detached single-family homes. The applicant has submitted 10 conceptual sample building elevations for future homes in this development, included in Exhibit A.4. Building materials appear to consist of a mix of horizontal lap siding, board and batten with stone accents. Staff is supportive of the proposed elevations. In accord with the Findings contained in Exhibit D, Staff recommends approval of the proposed annexation and preliminary plat request for this site. Staff has included comments and recommended conditions from other City departments in Exhibit B of this report. X. EXHIBITS A. Drawings/Other 1. Vicinity Map 2.
