NOTICING Planning&Zoning Posting Date Newspaper Notification 4/16/2021 Radius notification mailed to 4/13/2021 properties within 500 feet Site Posting Date 4/26/2021 Next Door posting 4/13/2021 V. STAFF ANALYSIS The proposed drive-through is for a financial institution and is within 300-feet of a restaurant drive- through to the south that has recently received Commission approval(Lost Rapids Drive-through,H- 202 1-000 1),which requires Conditional Use Permit approval(CUP)per UDC Table 11-2B-2. There are also residential uses and zoning to the east across N. Ten Mile Rd. but because the uses are separated by an arterial street, these are not a factor in the CUP requirement per UDC 11-4-3-IIA. Specific Use Standards: The proposed drive-through establishment is subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-11,Drive-Through Establishment. A site plan is required to be submitted that demonstrates safe pedestrian and vehicular access and circulation on the site and between adjacent properties.At a minimum,the plan is required to demonstrate compliance with the following standards: Staffs analysis is in italics. 1) Stacking lanes have sufficient capacity to prevent obstruction of driveways,drive aisles and the public right-of-way by patrons; The proposed drive-through has three(3)stacking lanes that are approximately 65'+/-from the drive aisle to the drive-up services for the bank;furthermore, the proposed drive-up services are proposed in a detached structure that is on the west end of the site with the main building being on the east of the site, approximately 95'apart. Staff believes the stacking lane has sufficient capacity to serve the use without obstructing driveways and drive aisles by patrons. 2)The stacking lane shall be a separate lane from the circulation lanes needed for access and parking, except stacking lanes may provide access to designed employee parking. Per the submitted site plan, the stacking lanes are off of the shared internal access and provide at least 65'of are before any vehicle would impede any access. Staff does not foresee the stacking lanes impeding the circulation lanes, especially due to the proposed design of a detached drive- through. 3)The stacking lane shall not be located within ten(10) feet of any residential district or existing residence; The stacking lane is not located within 10'of any residential district or residence. 4)Any stacking lane greater than one hundred(100)feet in length shall provide for an escape lane; and Page 3 Item 3. ElEXHIBIT A The stacking lanes do not exceed 100'in length so no escape lane is proposed. However, the exit drive-aisle for the detached drive-through is shown as 23'wide, allowing for patrons to exit the drive-through and turn north or south with ample room on either side. 5)The site should be designed so that the drive-through is visible from a public street for surveillance purposes. The detached drive-through is not exceptionally visible from N. Ten Mile Rd. (the closest public street) along the east boundary of the site but the south boundary of the site is one of the main ingress and egress drive aisles for the overall Costco site. Staff finds this shared drive-aisle and overall proximity to Ten Mile Road(no more than 185 feet in distance)provides for adequate surveillance opportunities. Based on the above analysis, Staff deems the proposed drive-through in compliance with the specific use standards as required. The proposed use of a financial institution is subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4- 3-17. The proposed site plan appears to show compliance with all of the standards and will be further verified with the future Certificate of Zoning Compliance(CZC)application.At the time of CZC review,Meridian Police Department will verify compliance with the required specific use standards. Access: One driveway access is proposed to the site via the north/south driveway along the west boundary of the site from W. Lost Rapids Dr. from the south and a driveway access via N. Ten Mile Rd. adjacent to the property along the south boundary. A reciprocal cross-access easement exists for lots in this subdivision as noted on the Lost Rapids subdivision plat(note#12) and in the Declaration of Easements, Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions(Inst. 2020-071547). Parking: A minimum of one(1)parking space is required to be provided for every 500 square feet of gross floor area for nonresidential uses. The proposed building is shown as 4,276 square feet requiring a minimum of 9 (rounded up from 8.5)parking spaces; the submitted site plan shows 30 proposed parking spaces exceeding UDC minimums. The recorded Declaration of Easements, Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for this development establish cross-parking easements for lots in certain groups within the development(Inst. 2020- 071547,Amended Inst. #2020-171404). This lot(Lot 12) is grouped with Lot 11 directly to the north and shares a perpetual,non-exclusive cross-parking easement with that lot. A minimum one(1)bicycle parking space is required to be provided for every 25 vehicle spaces or portion thereof per UDC 11-3C-6G;bicycle parking facilities are required to comply with the location and design standards listed in UDC 11-3C-5C. Bicycle parking is shown on the submitted plans in compliance with code. Pedestrian Walkways: A pedestrian walkway is depicted on the site plan from the arterial/perimeter sidewalk along N. Ten Mile Rd. to the main building entrance as required by UDC 11-3A-19B.4a and meets code as submitted. Landscaping: Parking lot landscaping is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8C. Landscaping is depicted on the landscape plan in Section VII.B in planter islands within the parking area as required. A minimum 5-foot wide landscape buffer is required to be provided along the perimeter of the parking or other vehicular use areas as set forth in UDC 11-3B-8C.1. The submitted landscape plan shows the required perimeter buffer but the buffer along the north boundary does not show any trees within this buffer. Trees are required to be provided for within these buffers at a ratio of at least 1 tree every 35 linear feet.With the CZC submittal,the landscape plan should be revised to show compliance with this standard. Page 4 Item 3. 127 EXHIBIT A Street buffer landscaping, including a sidewalk, along N. Ten Mile Rd. was installed with development of the overall subdivision. The submitted landscape plans show a majority of this buffer remaining as it currently exists but towards the southern end of this buffer the plans show additional landscaping to highlight the building and future monument sign. This area of the buffer also contains the new sidewalk connection from the existing sidewalk along Ten Mile to the front of the proposed building. Mechanical Equipment: All mechanical equipment on the back of the building and outdoor service and equipment should be incorporated into the overall design of buildings and landscaping so that the visual and acoustic impacts of these functions are fully contained and out of view from adjacent properties and public streets as set forth in UDC 11-3A-12. If mechanical equipment is proposed to be roof-mount, all equipment should be screened and out of view as noted above. Building Elevations: The Applicant applied for Design Review concurrently with this CUP application and therefore provided building elevations to be reviewed. The building elevations were submitted as shown in Section VILC and incorporate two main field materials, fiber cement siding and stone. The siding and stone are two contrasting colors(coal-like color and white,respectively) which adds to the overall modern design of the building. On the east and west elevations,the number of proposed windows can act as either an accent material or a third field material. The lack of modulation along the north and south elevations are of concern to Staff. In order to meet the modulation requirements for these two facades, a column of stone at least 6 inches in depth should be added to each facade,matching the overall aesthetic by placing them as evenly as possible on each facade. The detached drive-through canopy is shown with the same two field materials (fiber cement siding and stone)as the main building and meets all of the applicable design standards outlined in the Architectural Standards Manual. No elevations were submitted that show the proposed trash enclosure;this should be corrected with the future CZC submittal and should match the color of the proposed building. The submitted landscape plans show adequate screening of the trash enclosure. Certificate of Zoning Compliance: A Certificate of Zoning Compliance application is required to be submitted for the proposed use prior to submittal of a building permit application to ensure consistency with the conditions in Section VIII and UDC standards. VI. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the proposed conditional use permit with the conditions included in Section VIII per the Findings in Section IX. The Director has approved the administrative design review request. B. The Meridian Planning&Zoning Commission heard this item on May 6,2021.
