STAFF ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan (https://www.meridiancity.or /� complan): This property is designated Mixed Use — Regional (MU -R) on the City's Future Land Use Map (FLUM) contained in the Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of the MU -R designation is to provide a mix of employment, retail, and residential dwellings and public uses near major arterial intersections. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses Page 4 together, including residential, and to avoid predominantly single use developments such as a regional retail center with only restaurants and other commercial uses. Developments should be anchored by uses that have a regional draw with the appropriate supporting uses. See pgs. 30-31 of the Comprehensive Plan for more information. A. PRELIMINARY PLAT The proposed preliminary plat consists of 20 building lots on 51.59 acres of land in the C -G zoning district. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures on this site. Dimensional Standards (UDC Table 11-2B-3): The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the minimum dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-213-3 for the C -G zoning district. The C -G district has no minimum lot size or street frontage requirements. Phasing Plan: The subdivision is proposed to develop in three (3) phases as shown on the phasing plan in Section VILA but the Applicant requests leeway for a few additional phases if necessary as shown on the phasing plan (i.e. a, b, c, etc.). Access (UDC 11-3A-3,11-3H-�• The primary access to this site is proposed via S. Silverstone Way, a collector street; another access is available via S. Rackham Way, a local street, at the southwest corner of the site. A cross-section/detail should be included on the plat for S. Silverstone Way. All lots in this subdivision are subject to cross -access and parking easements per the note on the plat in accord with UDC 11 -3A -3A.2. Note: A 50' wide future road easement abuts the southern boundary of this site on Lots 9 and 10, Block 1, Jewel subdivision for access via E. Onyx St. but was never dedicated as right-of-way or improved. With submittal of an updated conceptual developmentplan with the upcoming Development Agreement modification application, the Applicant should provide a cross -access easement across the future land use buffer for interconnectivity upon redevelopment of the property to the south. An emergency access easement will also be required by the Fire Dept. to the east for access via S. Rolling Hill Dr. Traffic: The ITD submitted a letter to the City based on the findings of the Traffic Impact Study (see Section VII.K). Although this development is not taking direct access via the state highway, it will impact the Eagle Road interchange (Exit 46) due to the volume of vehicles generated by the development at full build -out in 2030. Per ITD's letter, "ITD recommends to the City of Meridian that the developer construct a second right turn lane at the eastbound off -ramp prior to commencing Phase 3 of the ICCU Plaza or exceeding 668 PM Peak hour trips. This mitigation improvement is constructible and is in lieu of the more critical need for the developer to mitigate for impacts to the northbound left turning movements at the westbound ramp, which is not feasible or reasonable. ITD does not have any projects currently programmed to rebuild the Eagle Road interchange. This mitigation will provide some relief to the overall operations of this interchange and is a reasonable improvement to offset the developer's impacts." This will likely be a recommendation as a new provision in the amended Development Agreement application to be submitted for this project prior to commencement of Phase 3. Page 5 Pathways (UDC I1 -3A-8): The Pathways Master Plan does not depict any pathways on this site. Sidewalks (UDC 11-3A-17): Sidewalks are required to be constructed adjacent to all public streets as set forth in UDC 11-3A- 17. Detached sidewalks are required along I-84, an interstate, and along S. Silverstone way, a collector street, in accord with UDC standards as proposed. Parkways (UDC 11-3A-17): Parkways are required to be constructed and landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11 -3A - 17E. Eight -foot wide parkways are required for Class II trees unless root barriers are provided in which case the parkways can be reduced to 6 feet. Landscaping (UDC I1 -3B): Street buffer landscaping is required to be provided as set forth in UDC Table 11-2B-3 for the C- G zoning district in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11 -3B -7C. A 25 foot wide landscape buffer to adjoining residential uses is required with lot development in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11 -3B -9C as applicable. A 50 -foot wide buffer is required along I-84, an interstate, and a 20 -foot wide buffer is required along S. Silverstone Way, a collector street. The buffer along S. Silverstone Way should be depicted on the plat on a common lot or on a permanent dedicated buffer maintained by the business owners' association in accord with UDC 11-3B-7C.2b. The proposed landscape plan included in Section VII.B should be revised as follows: 1) the 50 -foot wide street buffer along I-84 needs to be extended along the west boundary of the site and the Landscape Requirements table updated accordingly (1 tree is required per 35 linear feet); the Landscape Requirements table also needs to include calculations for the buffer along S. Silverstone Way. Waterways (UDC 11-3A-6): No waterways cross this site. Fencing (UDC 11-3A-6, 11-3A-7): All fencing constructed on the site is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A- 7. Fencing is not depicted on the landscape plan. Utilities (UDC 11-3A-21): Connection to City water and sewer services is proposed in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. Street lighting is required to be installed in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. See Section VIII.B below for Public Works comments/conditions. Pressurized Irrigation System (UDC 11-3A-15): An underground pressurized irrigation system is required to be provided for each lot within the development as proposed. The New York Irrigation District has the water rights to this parcel which is delivered by Nampa -Meridian Irrigation District. Storm Drainage (UDC 11-3A-18): An adequate storm drainage system is required in all developments in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Design and construction shall follow best management practice as adopted by the City as set forth in UDC 11-3A-18. Building Elevations (UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed ICCU building as shown in Section VII.C. Final design of all structures proposed on the site is required to comply with the design standards listed in UDC 11-3A-19 and those in the Architectural Standards Manual. Page 6 LI, =179LRRI[17 1 A.
