SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF APPLICANT’S REQUEST The applicant, 745 W. Ustick, LLC, has submitted an application for annexation and zoning (AZ) of 15.13 acres of land with a TN-R zoning district. A concept plan, landscape plan and elevations have been submitted with the annexation request that depicts a 272-unit multi-family development and nine 9) single family residential lots. After the Planning and Zoning Commission hearing on March 15, it has come to staff’s attention that there is a property boundary dispute between the subject property and the property to the east. A portion of the property to be annexed was not included in the annexation request. Annexing the property as is would create what is commonly known as a spite strip, or a portion of a parcel that is within two separate jurisdictions. 2.

Physical Features: 1. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: Staff is unaware of any canals/ditches that may exist on the site. 2. Hazards: Staff is unaware of any hazards that may exist on the site. 3. Flood Plain: This property is not within the floodplain overlay district. 7. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS This property is currently designated “Mixed Use – Community” (MU-C) with a Neighborhood Center (N.C.) overlay on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. In these areas the City seeks a centralized, pedestrian-oriented, identifiable and day-to-day, service-oriented focal point for neighborhood scale development. Neighborhood Centers should serve as public transit locations for future park-and-ride lots, bus stops, shuttle bus stops or other alternative modes of transportation. Neighborhood Center developments are encouraged to be designed according to the conceptual neighborhood center plan. The grid street pattern within the neighborhood allows traffic to disperse, eases congestion, slows traffic, and is safer for residents. In addition to the items listed for the MU-C designation, the following items will be used in reviewing development applications in all MU-C areas with an N.C. overlay: Four specific design elements should be incorporated into a Neighborhood Center development: a) street connectivity, b) open space, c) pathways, and d) residential density that is eight dwelling units per acre or more. Most blocks should be no more than 500’ to 600’, similar to Old Town and Heritage Commons; larger blocks are allowed along arterial streets. Reduced travel lane widths are encouraged. The design should provide an interconnected circulation pattern that is convenient for automobiles, pedestrians, and transit. The centers should offer an internal circulation system that connects with adjacent neighborhoods and regional pathways, connecting to and integrated with the larger street and pathway system. Page | 4 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda December 18, 2018 – Page 122 of 702Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda February 26, 2019 – Page 144 of 340 EXHIBIT A Developments should provide neighborhood accessible commercial services that do not force residents onto arterial streets. Developments should provide a variety of housing choices and types. Housing within developments should be arranged in a radiating pattern of lessening densities from the core. Alleys and roadways should be used to transition from dissimilar land uses, or residential densities. The applicant is proposing a mix of multi-family and single-family residential uses at an overall gross density of 18.57 dwelling units per acre, which is slightly above the density of 3 to 15 dwelling units desired in the MU-C designation. Most of the density is in the form of the multi-family development. Staff believes that interconnectivity between this development and the development to west could be enhanced if the applicant would align the intersections at W. Stanhope and the driveway constructed with the Crossfield Apartment complex to the west. There is not a small-scale commercial/entertainment/office component planned for the site as detailed in the NC designation, only a mix of residential. However, there is commercial property zoned C-C and C-N across the street on the north side of Ustick Road, which should provide the commercial component of the NC designated area. It is important to note that when the apartments to west came through as part of a rezone application, staff contemplated a commercial component as part of this property which provided a justification to allow additional residential units to the west. A commercial component is not proposed as part of this application. Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the proposed development (staff analysis in italics below policy): Require all new and reconstructed parking lots to provide landscaping in internal islands and along streets.” (2.01.04B) Landscaping is proposed within planter islands in the parking areas on this site as shown on the landscape plan attached in Exhibit A.4. Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets.” (3.06.02D) Direct lot access is not proposed to W. Ustick Road, an arterial street. The concept plan depicts 3 access points N. Venable Lane which is designated as a residential collector on ACHD’s Master Street Map. If the applicant would align the northern driveway with the adjacent apartment complex to the west and the public street with W. Stanhope to the west, staff finds the applicant could eliminate the middle access to N. Venable Lane. Require appropriate landscape and street buffers along transportation corridors (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.).” (3.06.02F) Ustick Road is designated as an arterial roadway and Venable Ave is classified as a collector roadway. By City Ordinance, a 25-foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to Ustick Road and a 20-foot wide landscape buffer is required along Venable Ave. The landscape buffers must deigned in Accord with UDC 11-3B-7C and Table 11-2D-6. 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 parcel is contiguous to the city. Sanitary sewer and water are available to this parcel. Page | 5 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda December 18, 2018 – Page 123 of 702Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda February 26, 2019 – Page 145 of 340 EXHIBIT A Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect local roads and collectors to adjacent properties (stub streets).” (3.03.020) The applicant has provided a conceptual street design for this development and the adjacent County properties. The proposed concept plan depicts the extension of N. Ridgebury Ave. and the extension of W. Stanhope Street that will stub to the east. Further, the applicant has demonstrated how the adjacent County properties could develop without the need for an additional stub street. Since there is an adjacent County parcel to the east, commercially zoned, staff recommends that the applicant grant that parcel cross access so that property has access to Venable Lane in the future (see exhibit A.3). Evaluate comprehensive impact of growth in all land use decisions (e.g., traffic impacts, school enrollment, parks, etc).” (3.01.01B) Staff recognizes the proposed development will impact traffic, schools and parks in the area. Locate small-scale neighborhood commercial areas within planned residential developments as part of the development plan.” (3.05.01E) The proposed development does not have a commercial component as anticipated by MU-C designated areas. However, there are adjacent commercial uses to the north that can provide small scale neighborhood uses to support the proposed development. Additional employment in the area is unknown until actual uses develop in the area. Require new urban density subdivisions which abut or are proximal to existing low density residential land uses to provide landscaped screening or transitional densities with larger, more comparable lot sizes to buffer the interface between urban level densities and rural residential densities.” (3.05.02F) The applicant is proposing to provide a block of residential lots along the south boundary to provide transitional zoning to the adjacent residential lots. However, as designed the applicant is proposing to construct four-story structures that may not provide an appropriate transition between the County residents and the adjacent single family homes. Staff recommends that the applicant construct apartment buildings that are two stories along Venable Lane and Ustick Road to provide a transition to the adjacent uses. The internal buildings should not exceed three stories in height. Develop incentives for high-density development along major transportation corridors to support public transportation system.” (3.06.02G) In the future Ustick Road will be a mobility corridor. The applicant should coordinate with VRT to see if a future bus stop is desired in this location. Coordinate with ACHD, ITD, COMPASS, and other agencies to determine future infrastructure plans, transportation corridors, highway alignments, etc. and allow only compatible adjacent land uses, appropriate site designs and traffic patterns.” (3.06.02H) ACHD, ITD and COMPASS have provided comments on the subject application. Please review the public record for this information. Provide housing options close to employment and shopping centers.” (3.07.02D) The proposed development is near some employment and vacant commercial property that may develop with uses that could provide other employment. Locate high-density development, where possible, near open space corridors or other permanent major open space and park facilities, Old Town, and near major access thoroughfares.” (3.07.02L) Page | 6 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda December 18, 2018 – Page 124 of 702Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda February 26, 2019 – Page 146 of 340 EXHIBIT A The proposed development is near Settlers Park and Ustick Road is slated for widening this year from two lanes to five lanes. Provide for a wide diversity of housing types (single-family 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) The proposed multi-family residential development will contribute to the variety of housing types available within this part of the City. Require open space areas within all development.” (6.01.01A) The proposed development is required to comply with the minimum common open space design standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27C for multi-family developments as well as the qualified open space standards listed in 11-3G-3 for residential developments. As designed the single family portion of the development doesn’t appear to have access to the amenities or open space proposed for the multi-family residences. Per the mixed-use standards above, opens space and interconnectivity is encouraged. At the hearing, the applicant should clarify if the residents of the single family portion of the development will have access to the open space and amenities proposed for the multi-family development. In accord with the above policies and for the above-stated reasons/recommendations, staff finds the proposed use is appropriate in this location. 8. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE A. Purpose Statement of Zone: The purpose of the TN-R district is to provide for a variety of residential land uses including attached and detached single-family residential, duplex, townhouse, and multi-family. A TN-R district includes open spaces and promotes pedestrian activity through well designed and varied streetscapes that also provide for the safe and efficient movement of vehicular traffic. Most dwelling units should be accessed from alleys. The minimum density is six (6) units per acre. Density should decrease away from the center and closer to conventional residential districts. The TN-R district should be generally located adjacent to a TN-C district, along a transit corridor, or within a mixed use neighborhood. For the purposes of this title, the term residential district shall also include the traditional neighborhood residential district. B.

Off-Street Parking: Off-street parking is required in accord with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for multi- family and single family dwellings. 9. ANALYSIS Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: 1. AZ: The applicant requests annexation and zoning of 15.13 acres of land with the TN-R zoning district, generally consistent with the MU-C land use designation. 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 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 the site develops as proposed with this application, staff recommends a DA as a provision of annexation with the conditions included in Exhibit B. Site Plan: The applicant has provided a concept plan, that depicts a 272-unit multi-family consisting of ten (10) multi-family structures (three and four stories in height), a clubhouse and nine (9) single family residential lots on approximately 15 acres of land as required by UDC 11- 5B-3C(3). On the submitted concept plan the applicant has provided the open space calculations and depicted the amenities that are proposed for the future development. This information is provided below. In general, staff is supportive of the submitted concept plan. Because the multi-family use is a principally permitted use and only requires CZC and DES approval upon annexation of the property, staff is recommending that the applicant modify the concept plan as follows: 1. Align the northern and southern access with the accesses on the west side of N. Venable Lane; remove the center access driveway. 2. Venable Lane should be constructed as a complete residential collector street with the first phase of development. 3. The applicant should comply with the open space and site amenities as depicted on the submitted concept plan. Further, the site should comply with the common open space and site amenity standards specified in UDC 11-3G and UDC 11-4-3-27. 4. Cross access should be granted to the Ada County parcel #S1201120651. Cross access will not be required if the property annexes into the City with a residential district. 5. The applicant has indicated that the multi-family portion of the site is the first phase of development. The applicant has been informed that the property must be further subdivided in order to create the single family lots along the southern boundary. Staff recommends a DA provision the applicant record a final plat prior to the issuance of the first occupancy permit. Future subdivision should comply with the subdivision standards set forth in UDC 11-6C-3. 6. The applicant should clarify at the public hearing if the single family residences will have access to the amenities and open space proposed for the multi-family portion of the development in accord with the mixed-use standards. 7. To provide an appropriate transition to the adjacent Ada County parcels and the single family residences, no multi-family structure should exceed three stories in height and the multi-family buildings that front along public streets shall not exceed two stories in height. Further, the proposed garage structure along the south boundary of the multi-family Page | 8 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda December 18, 2018 – Page 126 of 702Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda February 26, 2019 – Page 148 of 340 EXHIBIT A portion of the site shall be broken up into multiple structures to break-up the monotonous appearance of structure. Landscaping: A landscape plan was submitted with the application that shows approximately 3.114 acres of open space, or approximately 22.5% of the site. This area includes several areas of open space that are larger than 50 feet by 100 feet as well as half of the landscape buffer along Ustick Road. The applicant is required to comply with the open space requirements in both UDC 11-3-G-3 and 11-4-3-27. Amenities: The amenities included in the project include a pool, two (2) play structures, a clubhouse, an outdoor patio, dog park and water feature. The applicant is required to comply with the open space requirements in both UDC 11-3-G-3 and 11-4-3-27. The open space and amenities for the multi-family portion of the property shall be for the use of the multi-family development as well as the single family homes. Connectivity: The applicant provided an exhibit showing how future connectivity in the area. With that exhibit, staff is supportive of the single-stub street to the property to the west with the caveat that the commercial business near the northeast corner of the property be provided a cross- access if that property is to be used for a commercial use if/when the property annexes into the City. Dimensional Standards: The TN-R zoning requested by the applicant requires specific lot sizes and design elements not typically required by other zoning designations. The applicant is advised to review section 11-2D-6 of the UDC and to ensure that any proposed development conforms to this section. Future development of this site should comply with the dimensional standards set forth in UDC 11-2D-6. Parking: The conceptual site plan indicates that there will be a total of 544 parking stalls which is a ratio of 2 parking stalls per unit. Since this development is located adjacent to a collector and arterial roads which does not allow for on-street parking, the applicant has provide more parking than what is required by City ordinance. Staff is supportive of the proposed parking shown on the concept plan. The applicant is also required to provide one (1) bicycle parking stall for every 25 proposed parking stalls. On the submitted site plan the applicant has dispersed bike racks throughout the proposed concept plan. The applicant will also need to meet any requirements for ADA stalls as dictated by the International Building Code. Bile parking on the site must comply with the standards set forth in UDC 11-3C-5C and 11-3C-6G. Building Elevations: The multi-family structures within the proposed development that are visible from the street or abutting properties are required to comply with the design review standards set forth in UDC 11-3A-19 and the guidelines contained in the Architectural Standards Manual. Building materials for the proposed structures were not provided. Prior to the Commission hearing, the applicant shall provide greater detail with further development to ensure that the architecture complies with the Architectural Standards Manual. Staff is not supportive of the approved elevations for several reasons including the proposed height, and the 12-plex structures do not appear to have the required 80 square foot of private open space. At the time of this staff report staff had not yet received carport elevations. In summary staff finds the proposed project complies with the future land use map and applicable policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the UDC with the conditions of approval listed in Exhibit B. Based on the aforementioned analysis, staff recommends approval of the subject application. 10.
