ANNEXATION & ZONING Planning & Zoning City Council Posting Date Posting Date 2/14/2020 3/20/2020 2/11/2020 3/18/2020 2/24/2020 3/25/2020 2/11/2020 3/18/2020 The Applicant requests annexation and zoning of 16.99 acres of land with TN -R zoning district consistent with the MU -N (Mixed Use — Neighborhood) and MDR (Medium -density Residential) Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designations in the Comprehensive Plan. A conceptual site plan and building elevations were submitted for the development showing how the property is planned to develop, included in Section VII. Proposed Use: The Applicant proposes to develop the site with an age restricted (55+) multi -family residential development. Independent living units (76 units) are proposed on the west and north side of the site [i.e. multi- family (single family detach and duplex style single -level units on one parcel)] and a 3 -story apartment building is proposed in the southeast corner of the site consisting of 88 units. Several commercial components will be integrated with the apartment building, including but not limited to a spa, salon and a restaurant for residents and the public during events. The Allowed Uses Table in UDC Table 11-2D-2 for the TN -R zoning district lists multi -family developments as a principally permitted use subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27. Compliance with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the TN- R district is required, including but not limited to the maximum building height of 40 feet. Page 6 Comprehensive Plan(https://www.meridiancity.org/compplan): This property is designated MU -N (Mixed Use — Neighborhood) (approximately 8 acres) and MDR (approximately 9 acres) on the Future Land Use Map. The purpose of MU -N designation is to assign areas where neighborhood -serving uses and dwellings are seamlessly integrated into the urban fabric. The intent is to avoid predominantly single -use developments by incorporating a variety of uses. Land uses in these areas should be primarily residential with supporting non-residential services. Non-residential uses in these areas tend to be smaller scale and provide goods or services that people typically do not travel far for (approximately one mile) and need regularly. Employment opportunities for those living in the neighborhood are encouraged. Connectivity and access between the non-residential and residential land uses is particularly critical in MU -N areas. Tree -lined, narrow streets are encouraged. Developments are also encouraged to be designed according to the conceptual MU - N plan depicted in Figure 3B. The proposed development meets many of the goals of Mixed-use Neighborhood designation. The MDR designation allows for a mix of dwelling types including townhouses, condominiums, and apartments. Residential gross densities should range from eight to twelve dwelling units per acre. These areas are relatively compact within the context of larger neighborhoods and are typically located around or near mixed use commercial or employment areas to provide convenient access to services and jobs for residents. Developments need to incorporate high quality architectural design and materials and thoughtful site design to ensure quality of place and should also incorporate connectivity with adjacent uses and area pathways, attractive landscaping and a project identity. The proposed land uses and residential densities are consistent with those desired in MU -N and MDR designated areas. Goals, Objectives, & Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property (staff analysis in italics): 2.01.01M - "Support active -adult or independent senior living development." The proposed development will provide housing options for seniors in close proximity to office, medical and commercial uses developed in the area. 3.02.00 — "Maintain, improve, and expand the City's infrastructure to meet existing and growing demands in a timely, orderly, and logical manner." The proposed development is contiguous to the City and urban services can be provided to this development. The applicant will be responsible for the extension of the services to serve the proposed development. 6.01.01H - "Require pedestrian access connectors in all new development to link subdivisions together to promote neighborhood connectivity as part of a community pathway system." Pedestrian internal walkways are proposed throughout the development. A segment of the City's multi -use pathway is also proposed to be extended with the development. 4.05.02C — "Encourage the incorporation of creek corridors as amenities in development design." The submitted concept plan incorporates the creek corridor into the design of the project. 2.02.01 — "Plan for safe, attractive and well maintained neighborhoods that have ample open space and generous amenities that provide varied lifestyle choices." The concept plan as designed depicts 26.6% 22.907 common open space. Open space is linked throughout the development with inter -connected walking paths for residents of the community to enjoy. Page 7 3.02.01 G — "Establish and maintain levels of service for public facilities and services, including water, sewer, police, transportation, schools, fire and parks." The applicant is proposing to development the site with a senior housing project. Public Works has allocated resources to serve the development, but additional modeling is required. Both Police and Fire have provided comments on the application and they have no major concerns with the proposed development. With the development of the site, a pathway segment will be extended to enhance the City pathway network and the southern stub street (E. Wells Circle) will be extended to the west for future connectivity for the area. The proposed demographics of the development should have limited impact on the area schools. Stafffinds that the proposed development should have a minimal impact on the current LOS for public facilities. In reviewing development applications, the following items will be considered in MU -N areas, per the Comprehensive Plan: ➢ "All developments should have a mix land uses." The proposed development contains a mix of uses as required (i.e. personal service, restaurant and residential). ➢ "Residential uses should comprise a minimum of 40% of the development area at densities ranging from 6 to 12 units/acre." The residential uses comprise more than 40% of the development area for a combined gross density of 9.65 units per acre. ➢ "Non-residential buildings should be proportional to and blend in with adjacent residential buildings." The proposed 3 -story apartment building and the single family dwelling units have similar design elements and construction materials for an integrated development. Adequate transition is also being provide along the west boundary between the proposed development and the existing residential developments in the form of single story units. The restaurant is also integrated into the design of the apartment building to provide vertical relieffrom the single family units that are proposed to the north. ➢ "Unless a structure contains a mix of both residential and office, or residential and commercial land uses, a maximum building size should be limited to a 20,000 square -foot building footprint." The largest building proposed on the site is the 3 -story apartment building which has a building footprint of 30, 000 square feet. The commercial component incorporates a spa, salon and an attached 6, 000 sq. ft. restaurant. Staff finds that the proposed structure provides a mix of commercial and residential uses to support the required increase in the building footprint. ➢ "Supportive and proportional public and/or quasi -public spaces and places including but not limited to parks, plazas, outdoor gathering areas, open space, libraries, and schools that comprise a minimum of 10% of the development area are required. Outdoor seating areas at restaurants do not count towards this requirement." The proposed development has multiple gathering spaces (26.604 that may comply with this requirement. ➢ Where the development proposes public and quasi -public uses to support the development above the minimum 5%, the developer may be eligible for additional residential densities and/or an increase to the maximum building footprint." The applicant is extending a portion of the pathway through the development for public benefit and providing open space in excess of UDC standards. Therefore, staff supports the increase in the building footprint as proposed by the applicant. Page 8 Zoning: Based on the analysis above, Staff is of the opinion the requested annexation with the TN -R zoning district and proposed development is generally consistent with the MU -N and MDR FLUM designation for this site. The proposed annexation area is contiguous to City annexed property and is within the Area of City Impact Boundary. A legal description and exhibit map for the annexation area is included in Section VII.A. 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 provisions included in Section VIII. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are several existing structures on this site that are required to be removed prior to development of the each subsequent phase. Dimensional Standards (UDC L� L-2): The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the minimum dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the TN -R district. Access (UDC 11-3A-3): Access to this development is proposed from the adjacent local streets (S. Wells St. and E. Wells Circle) in accord with UDC I I -3A-3. For internal connectivity, the applicant is proposing gated private streets and drive aisles. Further, some of the units are proposed to take access from common driveways. The private street standards strictly prohibit common driveways from private streets unless approved through alternative compliance. All private streets within the proposed development should comply with the standards set forth on UDC 11-3F-4; common driveways shall comply with the standards listed in UDC 11 -6C -3D. The private street application and any subsequent alternative compliance application to these standards should be submitted concurrently with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application. Pathways (UDC 11-3A-8): There is an existing 10 -foot multi -use pathway stubbed at the west boundary constructed with the adjacent Woodbridge Subdivision. The applicant is proposing to extend this segment of the pathway along a portion of the west boundary; turning east and paralleling the north boundary of the Five Mile Creek. Prior to occupancy of the first structure, the applicant should submit and obtain approval of a pedestrian pathway easement from City Council. Further, the applicant should coordinate with the applicable irrigation district and conform to any requirements of the district. The Parks Department is requiring the applicant extend a sidewalk in the northwest corner for interconnectivity. Sidewalks (UDC 11-3A-17): The TN -R dimensional standards requires 5 -foot wide detached sidewalks to be constructed along all roadways. The submitted concept plan depicts detached sidewalks adjacent to all local and private streets, except for the north/south segment of private street along the west boundary of the 3 -story apartment building. This area has an attached sidewalk on the east side of the road and open/covered parking on the west side. Parkways (UDC 11-211-3A-17): Parkways are required to be constructed and landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11 -3A - 17E. In addition, the TN -R dimensional standards requires the parkways to be a minimum of 8 feet in width. Page 9 Landscaping and Qualified Open Space & Site Amenities (UDC 11-3B 11-3G): Because the proposed project is over 5 acres in size, the applicant is required to comply the qualified open space and site amenity standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3 and the open space and amenity standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27 for multi -family developments (see analysis below). 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. Because this is annexation, fencing details have not been provided with the application. With the submittal of the CZC application, the applicant should provide details of the fencing proposed for the development to ensure it complies with UDC standards. Existing Easements: There is an existing 10 -foot wide public, utility, drainage and irrigation (PUDI) easements that run along the interior and exterior boundary of the three platted lots created with the Magic View Amended plat and an existing City of Meridian sewer easement along a portion of the west boundary and parallels the north boundary of 971 Wells Circle property, also located in the un- named ROW being vacated. The concept plan submitted with the application depicts structures that encroach in the PUDI easement areas. Further, with vacating the un -named ACHD right-of- way (ROW), the applicant will have to prepare the necessary easement documents to create a new sewer easement once the ROW is vacated, per Public Works specifications. Prior to the issuance of a CZC application, the applicant should vacate the 10 -foot wide PUDI easements and establish a new easement for the existing sewer line located with the un -named ACHD ROW. The portion of the sewer easement along the west boundary could impact the design of the proposed development. Per Public Works standards, sewer easements located outside of the public ROW are typically improved with a 14 -foot wide all weather surface to support maintenance equipment. The final design for this area has not been coordinated with Public Works to determine their access needs. The &i3liea t should eer-dina4e with the Publie Works pr-ejeet approval. The revised concept plan has oriented the units away from the easement which does not impede Public Works access to maintain the existing sewer main. Waterways (UDC 11-31A_-6): The Five Mile crosses the southwest corner of this site and is proposed to remain open as an amenity for the development in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-6. 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 (PI) system is required to be provided for each lot within the development as set forth as set forth in UDC 11-3A-15. If a PI pump station is required on the developed property, such station shall be on a lot solely dedicated to that pump station and shall be owned by the entity that owns and maintains the PI system as set forth in UDC 11 -3B -6E. 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 structures on the site as shown in Section VII.F. Page 10 All structures are required to comply with the design standards listed in the Architectural Standards Manual. Submittal and approval of a Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design Review applications are required prior to submittal of building permit application(s). Right -of -Way Vacation The applicant is proposing to vacate un -named ACHD right-of-way (ROW) created with Instrument #8122009. This roadway is not needed to provide access for the development. Therefore, staff is supportive of vacating the ROW. However-, per -City Code, the City r,,, nei ^ In addition to vacating the un -named ROW, there is an existing cul-de-sac along the south boundary (E. Wells Circle). As part of this development, staff is requiring the extension of the roadway to the west boundary. The extension of the roadway as requested by staff, requires the applicant may be t:espensible to vacate a portion of the Wells Circle ROW and dedicate additional ROW. With the extension of the ROW there is the -potentia that AC14D will r-e"ir-es the appheant to tefminate the roadway with a temper-ary tufaar-ound until it ; ex4en oa f ,-the - to the west through the adjaeo„A subdivision. The revised concept plan depicts the extension of the roadway and incorporates a temporary turnaround as approved by ACHD. The applicant has also provided the necessary legal description and exhibit map to vacate the additional ROW. This m impaet the design of the pla speeifieally the loss of units in the landseaping. Staff has een*ymaieated with AC14D staff and they have indieated that they det+4 s"peft the desip as shev. ,, by the ^ plieaf *. The applicant should design the project to comply with all ACHD requirements. , the appliea-at should provide a legal deser-iption and exhibit of the pertion of ROW being vaeated prior- to the City Getineil hearing. Per City Code, the City Council is only a recommending body on the vacation request, final approval is subject to ACHD approval. MULTI -FAMILY DEVELOPMENT (COMPLIANCE WITH THESE STANDARDS WILL OCCUR AT THE CZC REVIEw. THIS ANALYSIS IS FOR INFORMATIVE PURPOSES ONLY.) Specific Use Standards (UDC 11-4-3): The proposed use is subject to the following standards: (Staffs analysis/comments in italic text) 11-4-3-27: MULTI -FAMILY DEVELOPMENT: Multi -family developments with multiple properties shall be considered as one property for the purpose of implementing the standards set forth in this section.

To create building and site design in multi -family development that is sensitive to and well integrated with the surrounding neighborhood. 4. To create open space areas that contribute to the aesthetics of the community, provide an attractive setting for buildings, and provide safe, interesting outdoor spaces for residents. B. Site Design: Page 11 1. Buildings shall provide a minimum setback of ten feet (10') unless a greater setback is otherwise required by this title and/or title 10 of this Code. Building setbacks shall take into account windows, entrances, porches and patios, and how they impact adjacent properties. The applicant must comply with this standard. 2. All on-site service areas, outdoor storage areas, waste storage, disposal facilities, and transformer and utility vaults shall be located in an area not visible from a public street, or shall be fully screened from view from a public street. The site plan depicts screened trash enclosures; all proposed transformer/utility vaults and other service areas shall comply with this requirement. 3. A minimum of eighty (80) square feet of private, usable open space shall be provided for each unit. This requirement can be satisfied through porches, patios, decks, and/or enclosed yards. Landscaping, entryway and other access ways shall not count toward this requirement. In circumstances where strict adherence to such standard would create inconsistency with the purpose statements of this section, the Director may consider an alternative design proposal through the alternative compliance provisions as set forth in section 11-5B-5 of this title. The elevations submitted this application depicts private patios and balconies. However, floor plans have not been submitted to determine if this requirement has been satisfied. With the CZC submittal, the applicant should demonstrate compliance with this requirement or seek alternative compliance if alternative designs are proposed for the project. 4. For the purposes of this section, vehicular circulation areas, parking areas, and private usable open space shall not be considered common open space. These areas should not be included in the open space calculations submitted with the CZC application. 5.
