It is found that if the developer pays for the requested improvements and complies with the conditions set forth in these Findings of Fact No. 10, and all sub-parts, the economic welfare of the City and its residents and tax and rate payers will be protected, a condition of armexation and zoning designation. 12. It is also found lhat the development considerations as referenced in Finding No. 10 are reasonable to require and must be taken into account, in order to assure lhe proposed development is designed, constructed, operated and maintained in a marmer which is hannonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing, or intended character of the general vicinity, in order to assure that the proposed use will not change the essential character of the affected vicinity and will insure that the proposed uses will not be hazardous or disturbing to the existing, or future neighboring uses, particularly considering the impact of proposed development on potential to produce excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare and odors. 13. It is found that the zoning oflhe subject real property as General Retail and Service Commercial (C-G) and Low Density Residential District (R-4) requires connection to lhe Municipal Water and Sewer systems and will be compatible wilh the Applicant's development intentions, and will assure that the zoning is consistent with lhe Meridian Comprehensive Plan Generalized Land Use Map which designates the subject property as Mixed Residential. 14. The subject armexation request and zoning designation and proposed development relates to and is compatible with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan of the City as follows: Goals Section Goal 4: To provide housing opportunities for all economic groups within the community. Goal 8: To establish compatible and efficient use of land through lhe use of innovative and functional site design. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 10 AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING/SUTHERLAND FARM - (AZ-02-004) Goal 3: To encourage the kind of economic growth and development which supplies employment and economic self-sufficiency for existing and future residents, reduces the present reliance on Boise and strengthens the City's ability to finance and implement public improvements, services, and its open space character. Goal 9: To encourage a balance of land use patterns to insure that revenues pay for services. Economic Development 1.1 The City of Meridian shall make every effort to create a positive atmosphere that encourages.. .commercial enterprises to locate in Meridian. The character, site improvements and type of new commercial or industrial developments should be hannonized with the natural environment and respect the unique needs and features of each area. 1.5 Strip industrial and commercial uses are not in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. 3.1 U - Approve quality housing projects that meet the needs of all economic levels. 3.2U - Encourage efforts to develop and maintain quality neighborhoods and housing. . . 1.3 Land Use I. IOU Promote the design of attractive roadway entryway areas into Meridian which will clearly identify the community. 2.1 U - Support a variety of residential categories for the purpose of providing the City wilh a range of affordable housing opportunities. 2.4U - Encourage sidewalks and paved streets for all existing neighborhoods. . . 3.7 Industrial uses which require the storage or the production of explosive or hazardous materials should not be located near residential areas, and should conform to disposal, spill and storage measures as outlined bylhe U.S. EPA. 4.3U Encourage new commercial development in under-utilized existing commercial areas. 5.9 The integrity and identity of any adjoining residential neighborhood should be preserved through the use of buffering techniques, including screen plantings, open space and other landscaping techniques. 5.12 Strip development within this mixed-use area i s not in compliance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. 5.13 Clustering of uses and controlled access points along arterials and collector streets will be required. 5.14 Because these areas are near 1-84 and Franklin Roads, high-quality visual appearance is essential. All development proposals in this area will be subject to development review guidelines and conditional use permitting procedures. Natural Resource & Hazardous Areas 2.1 U Development along major drainage ways will be restricted to ensure that development does not cause additional ground or surface water contamination. 3.1 U Manage and prevent unsuitable uses along drainage ways and protect the flood plain of creeks and drains. 3.2U Protect lhe potential beauty and recreational trail opportunities of all Meridian waterways. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 11 AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING/SUTHERLAND FARM - (AZ-O2-004) CommunitY Design 1.3 Open space areas within all development should be encouraged. 1.4 Major entrances to the City should be enhanced and emphasized. Unattractive land uses along these entrances should be screened from view. 2.1 U Require businesses and government to install and maintain landscaping. 2.3U Encourage the beautification of streets, parking lots. . .etc. 6.2U - Pedestrian access connectors will be required in all new development to link subdivisions together to promote neighborhood identity. 6.11 U - Promote well-plarmed and well-designed affordable housing in all Meridian neighborhoods. Transportation Chapter 1.19U - Encourage proper design of residential neighborhoods to ensure their safety and tranquility. 1.14 - Design and performance standards should be applied to infilling development in order to reduce adverse impacts upon existing adjacent development. 1.18 - As Plarmed Development methods and standards are implemented by the City of Meridian, variations pertaining to plarmed development - maximum density, dimensional standards, and other requirements - shall not exceed 25% of the existing requirements, and shaH be recommended when one or more of the Plarmed Development design and developmental objectives are met. 15. It is found that the requested zoning designations, R-4 to the south ofthe Ridenbaugh Canal and CoG to the north of the Ridenbaugh Canal, is hannonious with and in accordance with the adopted Comprehensive Plan and Generalized Land Use Map, which designates theland to be Mixed Residential and Single Family Residential. Although, the Schedule of Use Control (MCCII-8-1) states that only detached single-family dwellings are permitted within the R-4 zone, the Plarmed Development Ordinance allows a mixture of different housing types, (townhouses, duplexes and detached single-family dwellings) wilhin a single plarmed development, regardless of the underlying zone, so long as the overall density of lhe underlying zone is not exceeded (MCCI2-6-4 A). Accordingly, the overall density of the residential portion of the plarmed development is approximately three dwelling units per acre. 16. No plans to re-zone lhe property in lhe future have been presented, and it is not anticipated lhat an application for re-zone win be received in the future. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW - Page 12 AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING/SUTHERLAND FARM - (AZ-O2-004) 17. It is found that Sutherland Fann will be developed in a marmer that will be allowed under the new zoning and according to the Plarmed Development Standards. 18. It is found that recent approval of the armexation and zoning of Silverstone IT on the north side of the Ridenbaugh Canal would dictate that the adjacent property to the east should be similarly zoned and developed (as proposed). The Ridenbaugh Canal provides a natural buffer/separation between land uses. Muir Woods Subdivision to the east has provided a stub-street at the Sutherland Farm western property line in expectation of similar development. 19. It is found that general vicinity provides a mix 0 f commercial uses and standard to estate sized residential lots. The intended character of the vicinity, as noted on the Generalized Land Use Map, is for mixed housing projects, detached single-family lots and mixed uses north of the Ridenbaugh Canal. It is also found that lhe proposed uses can be designed and constructed in a marmer that will be hannonious with and appropriate in appearance with the existing and intended character of the surrounding area. 20. It is not anticipated that the proposed uses will be hazardous or disturbing to future or existing neighbors. 21. It is found lhat the subject property will be served adequately by all essential public facilities and services, wilh the exception of water service. Computer modeling indicates that existing available fire flows and pressures will not be adequate to serve the Commercial/office/multi-family area oflhe subdivision at present. The City of Meridian will be bringing a new supply well on line in lhe Silverstone project within the next six to eight months, and with the development ofthe Silverstone project, a new main will extend under lhe Ridenbaugh Canal. According to the computer model, once these two items are complete fire flows and FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW -Page 13 AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING/SUTHERLAND FARM - (AZ-O2-004) pressures will be adequate to serve lhe higher demands ofthe above mentioned areas. 22. It is found that there will not be additional requirements at public cost and lhat the armexation and zoning will not be detrimental to the community's economic welfare. 23. It is found that the proposed uses will create additional traffic on both Eagle and Victory Roads; however, sit is not believed lhat the increase in traffic will be excessive. It is also not anticipated that the proposed development will generate traffic, noise, smoke, odors or other nuisances that would be detrimental to the general welfare oflhe surrounding area. 24. It is found that the proposed vehicular approach on Eagle Road aligns with the existing entry into Thousand Springs Subdivision, and should not appreciably interfere with traffic on the surrounding streets. The other major access (Victory) and stub-streets provided for within lhe plat do not appear to be designed in a marmer that would create interference with traffic on surrounding streets. The Applicant has provided a number of stub-streets to other properties for interconnectivity in the future. 25. It is found that no natural or scenic features of major irnportance will be lost or damaged by approval of this annexation request. The overall design of the subjectpropertyinc1udes a pathway adjacent to lhe Ridenbaugh Canal. 26. It is found that the armexation of this property would be in the best interest of the City by providing a variety of housing types, the addition of employment opportunities and the creation of additional recreation facilities (pathways and a subdivision park).
