Owner: SCS Brighton 11, LLC—2929 W.Navigator Dr., Ste. 400, Meridian, ID 83642 C. Representative: Same as Applicant IV. NOTICING Planning&Zoning City Council Posting Date Posting Date Newspaper Notification 9/17/2021 Radius notification mailed to properties within 300 feet 9/15/2021 Site Posting Date 9/27/2021 Next Door posting 9/16/2021 V. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN (Comp. Plan) This property is designated Mixed Use—Commercial(MU-COM)on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) in the Comprehensive Plan. Future development is governed by the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP)and the existing Development Agreement. The purpose of the MU-COM designation is to encourage the development of a mixture of office, retail,recreational,employment, and other miscellaneous uses,with supporting multi-family or single-family attached residential uses. While the focus of these areas is on commercial and employment uses,the horizontal and vertical integration of residential uses is essential to securing entitlements. As with all mixed-use areas,this designation requires developments to integrate the three major use categories—residential, commercial and employment. The Applicant proposes to develop the site with a self-service storage facility consisting of 448 storage units in climate controlled&non-climate-controlled structures with covered and uncovered RV storage. The site is located in close proximity to the I-84/Ten Mile Rd. interchange and Franklin Rd., a commercial arterial street. While a storage facility is not necessarily an optimal use in the MU-COM designation due to the nature of the use which requires it to be a secure site and does not allow for integration of uses or pedestrian oriented design or public spaces,it will provide a much-needed service for residents in nearby multi-family developments and is consistent with the Development Agreement. The following goals and policies in the Comprehensive Plan are supported by the proposed development: • "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval, and in accord with any adopted levels of service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F) City services can be provided to serve the proposed development. • "Encourage and support mixed-use areas that provide the benefits of being able to live, Page 3 Item 4. F-1181 shop, dine,play, and work in close proximity,thereby reducing vehicle trips,and enhancing overall livability and sustainability."(3.06.02B) The proposed storage facility will provide a much-needed service in close proximity to multi family developments in the area, which will reduce vehicle trips. VI. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE UD The proposed use,a self-service storage facility,is listed as a conditional use in the C-G(General Retail and Service Commercial)zoning district per UDC Table 11-2B-2, subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-34: Self-Service Storage Facility. VII. STAFF ANALYSIS The Applicant proposes to develop this site with a self-service storage facility consisting of 448 storage units in climate controlled&non-climate-controlled structures with covered and uncovered RV storage. Per UDC Table 11-213-2, a conditional use permit(CUP) application is required for a self-service storage facility in the C-G zoning district. The proposed development is generally consistent with the conceptual development plan included in the Development Agreement(Inst. #2021-0891 S7)for this site which depicts flex/light industrial/storage uses on this site, and complies with the conditions governing development of the subject property in the agreement. The proposed use is subject to the following Specific Use Standards(UDC 11-4-3-34)—Self-Service Storage Facility: (Staff analysis in italics) A Storage units and/or areas shall not be used as dwellings or as a commercial or industrial place of business.
