LAND SURVEYING | 3D SCANNING | DESIGN SURVEYING

Certificate of Zoning Compliance Narrative
The site represented in the enclosed site plan is zoned C-G. The Intended use for the site is to
construct a Holliday Inn Express hotel with all the adequate infrastructure, landscape, and
parking to support the designed building. The lot the Hotel will be built on is Parcel B in the
enclosed warranty deed file. This property borders both Freeway Dr. and Allen St, the main
entrances to the lot will be off of Freeway Dr.
The proposed building is a 4-story Holiday Inn Express Hotel with 91 guestrooms and 54,167 gross
square feet. Amenities include a breakfast area, indoor swimming pool, and outdoor patio with fire pit.
The site is zoned Community Business District (C-C) with sub-category CD of the City of Meridian
Architectural Standards. Proposed site development includes 118 new parking spaces, landscaping, and
site lighting.
The proposed building design is based on the Holiday Inn Express Formula Blue Brand (HIXFB) design
guidelines and includes brand mandated elements.
The proposed building and site development addresses the following standards contained in the City of
Meridian Architectural Standards Manual:
1. Architectural Character:
a. Cohesive Design
Located west of the existing Hampton Inn & Suites hotel, the Holiday Inn Express is a
compatible use and of compatible character and scale. The new building is oriented
parallel to the north south property line with the primary entrance visible from E. Freeway
Dr. and facing the Hampton Inn & Suites
The proposed parking lot has entrances on E. Freeway Dr. and connects to the existing
Hampton Inn & Suites parking lot. Connections to the future development to the
northwest have been planned. The Multi-use pathway continues through the site.
Architectural features are proposed on all facades with the same materials and level of
detail incorporated on each façade. The design intent is to provide a sense of arrival for
the hotel guests.
b. Building Scale
The surrounding buildings along E. Freeway Dr. include hotels of similar scale and
massing. There are no adjacent buildings with greater than a 1-story height difference.
Parapet roof line variation and modulation is provided by the raised parapets on the east
and west facades highlighting the building entrance and patio area. Horizontal reveals
occur at each floor line on all sides of the building. The building is capped by a band of
contrasting EIFS color with metal coping to match the band.
LAND SURVEYING | 3D SCANNING | DESIGN SURVEYING
CIVIL AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING | MATERIALS TESTING
Pedestrian scale elements include windows on the first floor, the porte cochere on the
east, and suspended canopies on the north, south, and west facades. Material color
changes occur at the first and second floor lines to reduce the scale of the building.
Consistent landscaping is proposed at the base on all sides of the building.
c. Building Form
The building form is articulated on both long facades with tower features that project from
the primary facade. The projections are framed by 2’ deep by 3’ wide columns and
overhang. The tower and columns are clad in stone. In addition, various thicknesses of
EIFS are used to provide a projection at transitions between material colors.
The first story includes a tall floor to floor height of 13’-0”. The lobby and breakfast areas
are highlighted by floor to ceiling storefront windows. The proposed fenestration at the
first floor is approximately 42% of the total perimeter.
The clean, simplified roof line with a contemporary look and feel is consistent with the
Holiday Inn Express brand requirements.
d. Architectural Elements
The large architectural porte cochere at the main entrance is the feature element of the
primary façade. It spans the vehicular drop off area and consists of four supporting
columns of metal and stone. The underside will be finished with a wood look material to
provide a warm and modern welcome. A landscape bed is provided below the outside
edge of the porte cochere. Benches and planters will be provided adjacent to the
building entrance.
In addition, 5’ deep suspended metal canopies are provided at each entrance. A
stamped concrete patio with fire pit is located on the west façade as an expansion of the
interior dining space.
The stone tower features extend above the roof line to a height to screen the rooftop
mechanical equipment. All ground level utility and mechanical equipment will be
screened by landscaping. A masonry trash enclosure is included to conceal all trash
dumpsters.
e. Materials
The proposed materials are per the Holiday Inn Express brand requirements and include
EIFS (stucco), stone, and metal. Multiple colors, textures, and thickness of EIFS are
utilized on all facades. The color scheme utilized is natural and neutral.

CIVIL AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING | MATERIALS TESTING
f. Signs and/or Lighting
Architectural lighting is proposed on the building and porte cochere columns. These
include the Holiday Inn Express brand required up lights at the tower feature and down
lights at the front porte cochere columns. Additional building mounted lighting is
proposed at all points of egress per code. All lighting will be energy efficient LED.
Holiday Inn Express brand signage is proposed on all sides. The signage design is
meant to be clean and highly visible.
2. Parking Lots: The Hotel will require 108 parking stalls to meet the requirement of 1 stall per 500 sf
of building floor space. The parking lot has been designed to include 166 total stalls. With drive
isles that meet the fire code requirements applicable to this site. ADA stalls required is 6 and 6
are provided in the design one of which is an ADA Van stall. 42 of these stalls are existing stalls
from the adjoining hotel.
3. Pedestrian Walkways: Continuation of the Five Mile Creek pathway is included in this site plan
through the property. The path will run north along the East property line and existing retaining
wall until reaching the next property corner at which point it will cross the parking lot going west.
See Site Plan for details. The path shall be 10 feet wide.
