is approved by the City of Meridian Planning Division as shown in Exhibit B with the following
modification:
➢ The site plan shall be updated to include the additional parking lot planters in the auto
parking lot as depicted on the landscape plan.
11. The landscape plan prepared by Breckon Landscape Design on October 16, 2020, labeled
CZC 1.00, CZC 1.01, CZC 1.02, CZC 1.03, CZC 1.04, CZC 1.05, CZC 1.06, CZC 1.07, CZC 1.08,
CZC 1.09, CZC 1.10, and CZC 1.11, are approved by the City of Meridian Planning Division as
shown in Exhibit C.
12. The elevations prepared by AO Architecture Design Relationships on October 9, 2020, labeled
02, are approved by the City of Meridian Planning Division as shown in Exhibit D with the
following notations:
➢ The applicant requests two design standard exceptions to the following Goals contained
in the Architectural Standards Manual:
a) Goal 5.1 J `In Industrial Districts, untextured concrete panels and prefabricated steel panels
are prohibited as facade field materials facing arterial and collector roadways, or public
spaces, except when used with a minimum of two other qualifying field materials and meeting
standard fenestration requirements. Concrete panels that do not exceed three (3) SQFT
without a patterned reveal or modulation break may be considered textured. " The southern
building facade that faces the collector road consists of the truck docks; the Applicant claims
that the use of the truck docks does not lend itself to horizontal articulation in the plane of the
wall to allow for trucks to successfully berth. The facdade maintains the overall building
architecture and frequency of the horizontal and vertical reveals as seen throughout the
exterior of the building; adding additional reveals on the southern elevation to limit the
smooth portion of the wall to less than 3 square feet would require many more reveals in both
directions. The Applicant states that additional reveals would not only not align with the
remainder of the building architecture; it would degrade the architectural experience, as the
reveals would be overdone.
Staff concurs with the Applicant and finds that the building elevations as designed
create a visual interest to the building facade with the varying roof heights, textured
concrete panels together with varying colors/reveals, and the decorative metal roof
awning that help to visually break-up the wall facade that justifies an exemption from
the Architectural Standards Manual.
b) Goal 5.3B "For industrial district properties, will -call and roll -up doors are allowed when
integrated into the building design, but loading docks are prohibited. Consider material
variation, transitions, modulation, and other architectural features and standards for the
Page 2
design. " The southern building fagade that faces the collector road consists of the truck
docks. While the layout of the site lends itself to the most economical design and circulation
for the fleet and associate traffic, the Applicant is proposing a heavily landscaped visual
barrier between the loading dock and the street. Additionally, the loading dock drive -able
surface is lower than the adjacent street grade which assists in the screening the dock from
public view.
Staff finds that the additional landscaping together with the lower street grade provided
around the loading docks and parking area along the southern portion of the site aides
in screening the dock from public view which justifies an exemption from the
Architectural Standards Manual
13. Except for the changes noted above, the approved site plan, landscape plan and/or elevations may
not be altered without prior written approval of the City of Meridian Planning Division.
14. The applicant shall pay any applicable impact fees prior to the issuance of a building permit.
15. If any changes must be made to the site plan to accommodate ACHD requirements, the
applicant shall submit a new site plan to the City of Meridian Planning Division for review
and approval.
16. The applicant shall complete all required improvements prior to issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy. It is unlawful to use or occupy any building or structure until the Building Official
has issued a Certificate of Occupancy.
17. The City of Meridian requires that the owner enter into a Warranty Surety Agreement and post a
Warranty Surety in the amount of 20% of the total construction cost for all completed public
sewer and water infrastructure for a duration of two years. This surety amount will be verified by
a line item final cost invoicing provided by the owner to the City. The surety can be posted in the
form of an irrevocable letter of credit, cash deposit or bond, and must be in place prior to
Certificate of Occupancy. Applicant must file an application for surety, which can be found on
the Community Development Department website. Please contact Land Development Services
for more information at 208-887-2211.
18. 100 Watt and 250 Watt, high-pressure sodium street lights shall be required on all public
roadways per the City of Meridian Improvement Standards for Street Lighting. All street lights
shall be installed at developer's expense. Final design shall be submitted as part of the
development plan set for approval. Applicant shall also include the location of any existing street
lights in the development plan set. Street lighting is required at intersections, corners, cul-de-sacs,
and at a spacing that does not exceed that outlined in the Standards. The contractor's work and
materials shall conform to the ISPWC and the City of Meridian Supplemental Specifications to
the ISPWC.
➢ A street light plan will need to be included in the building permit application. Street light
plan requirements are listed in section 6-7 of the City's Design Standards. A copy of the
standards can be found at, https.Ilmeridiancity.orQ/lan&Desi--n%20Standards%20-
