Existing Land Use(s) and Zoning: The property is developed with a single family detached home, zoned R-4. B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: This site is surrounded by existing residential properties, zoned R-4. C. History of Previous Actions:  In March 2018, the property was granted Accessory Use Permit approval (A-2018-0081) for an in-home daycare for up to 6 children. D. Utilities: 1. Public Works: a. Location of sewer: Currently connected from N. Linder Rd. b. Location of water: Currently connected from W. Tana Dr. c. Issues or concerns: None E. Physical Features: 1.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS EXHIBIT A Hammer Daycare – CUP H-2018-0060 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). Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the proposed use (staff analysis in italics):  “Plan for and encourage services like healthcare, daycare, grocery stores, and recreational areas to be built within walking distance of residential dwellings.” (2.01.01C) The subject property is currently operating with a family daycare with an approved accessory use permit. The applicant would like to expand the current operations to include up to 12 children consistent with the recently approved UDC text amendment. The proposed daycare group is surrounded by residences, which makes it a good candidate to provide services to neighboring properties. For the above-stated reason, staff is of the opinion the proposed use is consistent with the applicable comprehensive plan policies and is appropriate in this location. VIII. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE 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 dimensional standards of the corresponding zone and housing types that can be accommodated. B. Schedule of Use: Unified Development Code (UDC) Table 11-2A-2 lists the permitted, accessory, conditional, and prohibited uses in the R-4 zoning district. The proposed daycare facility is classified as a group daycare and is a conditional use in the R-4 zoning district, subject to specific use standards set forth in UDC 11-4-3-9. C. Dimensional Standards: The dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-6 for the R-4 zoning district apply to this site. D. Off-Street Parking: Per UDC Table 11-3C-6, the applicant is required to provide a minimum of 4 parking spaces; at least 2 in an enclosed garage, other spaces may be enclosed or a minimum of 10’ x 20’ parking pad. In addition to the parking requirements for the dwelling, on-site (i.e. off- street) vehicle pick-up, parking and turnaround areas are required to be provided for the daycare facility to ensure safe discharge and pick up of clients. IX. ANALYSIS A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: Conditional Use Permit: The applicant requests a conditional use permit to operate a group daycare facility for up to 12 children, in a 1,380 square foot home in an R-4 zoning district as required by UDC Table 11-2A-2. The UDC allows for up to 6 children in a family daycare with an accessory use permit in the R-4 zoning district; up to12 children are allowed in a group daycare but require conditional use permit approval in the R-4 zoning district. One of the main reasons for this requirement is the increased number of vehicle trips for the group daycare. Specific Use Standards: The proposed use is subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-9, Daycare Facility. EXHIBIT A Hammer Daycare – CUP H-2018-0060 A. General standards for all child daycare and adult care uses, including the classifications of daycare center; daycare, family; and daycare, group: 1. In determining the type of daycare facility, the total number of children at the facility at one time, including the operator's children, is the determining factor. The applicant proposes to care for up to 12 children at any one time and therefore is classified as a group daycare in accord with UDC 11-1A-1. 2. On site vehicle pick up, parking and turnaround areas shall be provided to ensure safe discharge and pick up of clients. The home is on the corner of N. Linder Rd. and W. Tana Dr. and has a two car garage and a concrete parking pad in front of the garage that fronts on Linder Rd. The garage and parking pad will accommodate parking for the owner of the residence and will not be allowed for customer use. The dedicated discharge area is provided along the south side of the property adjacent to W. Tana Dr. as shown in Exhibit A.3, even though on-street parking is allowed in front of the residence and the main driveway access is on Linder Road. However, a portion of the customer parking is paved, a portion is recycled asphalt. The dedicated discharge area could accommodate up to five standard parking spaces but is currently striped with two spaces. To guarantee safe discharge and pick-up of clients, the applicant shall stripe and dimension the parking area in accord with UDC Table 11-3C-5. The applicant shall contact the Planning Division to inspect the parking spaces upon completion. 3. The decision making body shall specify the maximum number of allowable clients and hours of operation as conditions of approval. A maximum number of 12 children are allowed to be cared for at one time. The proposed hours of operation are from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. However, the specific use standards allow the facility to operate between the hours of 6:00 am to 11:00 pm, unless otherwise restricted by the Commission. 4. Upon tentative approval of the application by the Director or commission for a daycare center facility, the applicant or owner shall provide proof of criminal background checks and fire inspection certificates as required by title 39, chapter 11, Idaho Code. Said proof shall be provided prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Zoning Compliance. The applicant or owner shall comply with all State of Idaho and Department of Health and Welfare requirements for daycare facilities. The applicant shall submit a copy of her background check and complete an inspection with the Fire Department prior to continue operating the daycare. 5. In residential districts or uses adjoining an adjacent residence, the hours of operation shall be between six o'clock (6:00) A.M. and eleven o'clock (11:00) P.M. This standard may be modified through approval of a conditional use permit. The applicant only proposes to operate the facility between the hours of 7:00 am and 6:00 pm; at no time should the hours extend beyond 6:00 am to 11:00 pm. 6. Prior to submittal of an application for an accessory daycare facility in a residential district, the applicant or owner shall hold a neighborhood meeting in accord with subsection 11-5A-6C of this title. Notice of the neighborhood meeting shall be EXHIBIT A Hammer Daycare – CUP H-2018-0060 provided to all property owners of record within one hundred feet (100') of the exterior boundary of the subject property. This standard is not applicable to this application. However, the applicant previously obtained an accessory use permit for a family daycare and complied. The applicant shall not exceed the maximum number of clients as stated in the approved permit or as stated in this title, whichever is more restrictive. The applicant shall not provide care for more than 12 children at any one time. B. Additional standards for daycare facilities that serve children: 1. All outdoor play areas shall be completely enclosed by minimum six foot (6') non- scalable fences to secure against exit/entry by small children and to screen abutting properties. The play area in the rear yard is enclosed with a six-foot non-scalable vinyl fence (see photos in Exhibit A.3). Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC): A CZC application is typically required to be submitted to the Planning Division for staff level review and approval of the proposed use as set forth in UDC 11-5B-1B after the conditional use permit is approved by the Commission to ensure the applicant complies with the aforementioned specific use standards. However, because staff has already determined that the applicant is in compliance with those standards, a CZC is not required to be submitted. Once the findings are approved for the subject CUP application, the applicant is allowed to commence the approved use. Although a CZC is not required, the applicant shall be required to stripe the customer parking area per the standards in UDC 11-3C-5. The applicant shall contact the Planning Division for an inspection upon completion to ensure parking spaces have been installed in accord with the dimensional requirements set forth in UDC Table 11-3C-5. NOTE: The City has adopted a local amendment to the international building code (IBC) that does not require a change in occupancy of the home if it is to operate as a daycare facilities for twelve or fewer children. Because the occupancy of the home is not changing from residential to non-residential, the parking for non-residential uses does not apply. Because the arrival of the children will likely be staggered, the provided parking along W. Tana Dr. should be sufficient. Staff recommends approval of the proposed CUP with the conditions listed in Exhibit B. X. EXHIBITS A. Drawings 1. Vicinity/Zoning Map 2. Aerial Map & Floor Plan 3.

Outdoor play equipment over 6 feet in height shall not be located in a front yard or within any required yard (i.e. setback area adjacent to property lines). f. The applicant shall submit a copy of her background check and complete an inspection with the Fire Department prior to continuing operating the daycare. 1.2 The applicant shall stripe the customer parking area on the south boundary adjacent to W. Tana Dr. per standards in UDC Table 11-3C-5.

During this time, the applicant shall commence the use as permitted in accord with the conditions of approval, satisfy the requirements set forth in the conditions of approval. Upon written request and filing by the applicant prior to the termination of the period, a time extension may be requested as set forth in UDC 11-5B-6. 1.4 Staff’s failure to cite specific ordinance provisions or terms of the approved conditional use does not relieve the applicant of responsibility for compliance. 2. PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT 2.1 Public works has no issues with this application. 3. FIRE DEPARTMENT 3.1 All daycares must pass an inspection using the criteria of the Idaho State Fire Marshal as set forth in Idaho Statute Title 39-1109.

The stalls bordering the house to the west along N. Linder Rd. shall be required to remain outside of public right-of-way. The applicant has dedicated parking along the south boundary of the property along W. Tana Dr. for customer parking to ensure traffic resulting from daycare patronage remains out of right-of-way. 8. CENTRAL DISTRICT HEALTH DEPARTMENT 8.1 CDHD will require plans be submitted for plan review for any child care center. 9. NAMPA MERIDIAN IRRIGATION DISTRICT 9.1 NMID had no comments on this application. 10. IDAHO TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT 10.1 ITD had no comments on this application as this project does not abut the State highway system. EXHIBIT A Hammer Daycare – CUP H-2018-0060 C. Required Findings from Unified Development Code 1. Conditional Use Permit (UDC 11-5B-6E) The Commission shall base its determination on the Conditional Use Permit request upon the following: a. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and meet all the dimensional and development regulations in the district in which the use is located. The Commission finds that the subject property is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and dimensional and development regulations of the R-4 district (see Analysis, Section IX for more information). b. That the proposed use will be harmonious with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan a nd in accord with the requirements of this Title. The Commission finds that the proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan future land use map designation of MDR and is listed as a conditional use in UDC Table 11- 2A-2 in the R-4 zoning district. Further, staff finds the proposed use of the site is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan in that the proposed daycare group will contribute to the variety of uses and educational opportunities available to the surrounding area. c. That the design, construction, operation and maintenance will be compatible with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not adversely change the essential character of the same area. The Commission finds that if the applicant complies with the conditions outlined in this report, the operation of the proposed daycare group should be compatible with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing and intended character of the area. d. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval imposed, will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity. The Commission finds that if the applicant complies with the conditions outlined in this report, the proposed use will not adversely affect other property in the area. The Commission should weigh any public testimony provided to determine if the development will adversely affect the other property in the vicinity. e. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as highways, streets, schools, parks, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water, and sewer. The Commission finds that sanitary sewer, domestic water, refuse disposal, and irrigation are currently provided to the subject property. Please refer to any comments prepared by the Meridian Fire Department, Police Department, Parks Department, Republic Services and ACHD in Exhibit B. Based on comments from other agencies and departments, Staff finds that the proposed use will be served adequately by all of the public facilities and services listed above. EXHIBIT A Hammer Daycare – CUP H-2018-0060 f. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional costs for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. The applicant will be financing any improvements required for development. The Commission finds there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost and that the proposed use will not be detrimental to the community’s economic welfare. g. That the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors. The Commission recognizes that traffic will likely increase with the approval of a daycare group in this location; however, the Commission does not believe that the amount generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. The Commission does not anticipate the proposed use will create excessive noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors. h. That the proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature considered to be of major importance.

Ustick - AZ (H-2018-0061) Application(s): ➢ Annexation and Zoning Size of property, existing zoning, and location: This site consists of 1.65 acres of land, zoned RUT, located at 750 and 772 E. Ustick Road. Adjacent Land Use & Zoning: This property is surrounded by single-family residential properties, zoned R-1 (Ada County), R-4, R-8 and RUT (Ada County). History: A Record of Survey (#9145) was recorded on March 6, 2012 for the subject property which depicts two parcels — Parcel 1 and Parcel 2. Ada County does not have any documentation of an approved split resulting in this configuration; therefore, this property is deemed to be one parcel, eligible for one building permit. Comprehensive Plan FLUM Designation: LDR (Up to 3 units/acre) Summary of Request: The applicant has applied for annexation and zoning of 1.65 acres of land in accord with the Agreement for Extension of Domestic Water and Sewer Service outside Meridian City Limits, recorded as Instrument No. 2018-047087 on May 23, 2018. The requested zoning district is R-2, consistent with the property's FLUM designation of LDR. The applicant's well on the property ran dry earlier this year. The City agreed to extend City water and sewer service to the property with the stipulation the applicant submit a request for annexation into the City within 10 business days of approval of the Agreement. The property was connected to City water and sewer service in May of this year. No new development is proposed with this application. Existing Conditions: With the recent widening of E. Ustick Road, the existing home does not comply with the front setback requirements of the R-2 district listed in UDC Table 11-2A-4; as such, it's deemed a nonconforming structure and is subject to the standards listed in UDC 11-16-5, Nonconforming Structure. Direct access to the subject property is provided from E. Ustick Road via a circle driveway across both properties. If the property redevelops in the future, access is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11.3A-3, Access to Streets. As noted in the Section VI.0 above, although the Record of Survey (#9145) depicts two parcels, only one legal parcel exists. Therefore, the property at 772 E. Ustick Rd. is not eligible for a building permit. The property would need to be subdivided in order to be eligible for a building permit on that property. The legal description submitted with the application, included in Exhibit C, shows the boundaries of the property proposed to be annexed and zoned. The property is contiguous to land that has been annexed into the City and is within the Area of City Impact boundary. The City may require a development agreement (DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. In order to ensure compliance with the provisions of annexation included in this report in Exhibit B, staff recommends a DA is required that contains the provisions listed in Exhibit B as discussed above.
