NOTICING Planning&Zoning City Council Posting Date Posting Date Newspaper notification published 4/19/2022 5/22/2022 Radius notification mailed to properties within 500 feet 4/18/2022 5/20/2022 Public hearing notice sign posted 4/25/2022 5/25/2022 Nextdoor posting 4/18/2022 5/18/2022 V. STAFF ANALYSIS A. Future Land Use Map Designation(https://www.meridiancity.org/compplan) General Industrial—This designation allows a range of uses that support industrial and commercial activities. Industrial uses may include warehouses, storage units,light manufacturing, flex, and incidental retail and offices uses. In some cases,uses may include processing, manufacturing,warehouses, storage units, and industrial support activities. Sample zoning include: I-L and I-H. The subject property is noted as Industrial on the future land use map (FL UM) and shares this designation with multiple properties to the east and west along the north side of Franklin Road. The Applicant is proposing to annex the property into the City with the I-L zoning district and propose two different uses on the property, self-storage and flex space—both of these uses are listed above as anticipated uses in this designation and the proposal for the I-L zoning district complies with the industrial future land use designation. The subject property has a planned extension of an industrial collector street(E. Lanark) that will bisect the property into two parcels which accounts for the main reason a preliminary plat is required and was submitted. According to the submitted plat, the Applicant is proposing the self- storage buildings on the front parcel(approximately 2.89 acres) and a flex space building on the backparcel along the railroad corridor(approximately 1.75 acres). Further analysis on the proposed uses are in subsequent sections below. In terms of nearby and adjacent development, there is existing industrial zoning to the west with developing flex and other industrial type buildings. The parcel directly abutting to the east is still a county RUT parcel that contains a single-family residence and still maintains some farm animals. Directly east of the county parcel is an ACHD facility that is currently under construction. Therefore, the county parcel to the east would be surrounded by industrial uses until such time that parcel redevelops. Because of the existing residential use to the east, this Applicant is required to provide a landscape buffer to that use. Staff has had conversations with that homeowner and they anticipate selling the property in the next five (5)years once their parents decide to leave that home. The applicant is seeking a Council waiver to reduce the buffer along the parcel as the City anticipates this property will redevelop with industrial uses in the future. Based on the proposed uses and plat,Staff finds the subject development to be consistent with the comprehensive plan. Specific policies are analyzed below in the next section. 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 HITA1. The DA is required to be signed by the property owner(s)/developer and returned to the City within 6 months of the Council granting the annexation for approval by City Council Page 4 and subsequent recordation.A final plat will not be accepted until the DA is executed and the AZ ordinance is approved by City Council. B. Comprehensive Plan Policies (https://www.meridiancity.orglcompplan): Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies are applicable to this development; Staff analysis is in italics: "Plan for industrial areas with convenient access to state highways or the rail corridor,where appropriate."(3.06.02D). The subject property abuts the railroad corridor along its north boundary. The subject development preserves this property as an industrial use along the rail corridor despite not utilizing that service at this time. Stafffinds the most important factor being that this development does not eliminate that option nor proposes a use that is non-compatible with the rail corridor. "Require all new development to create a site design compatible with surrounding uses through buffering, screening,transitional densities, and other best site design practices"(3.07.01A).As noted above, the Applicant is required to provide a landscape buffer along the east property boundary as an existing county residence is present on the parcel directly to the east. This is a requirement of the specific use standards for the proposed self-storage use;specifically, that the use is required to be wholly enclosed which should help minimize the impact to the existing homeowner. The Applicant is depicting a buffer along this entire boundary but is proposing a reduced buffer width because the property to the east is anticipated to be redeveloped with an industrial use similar to what exists in this area. Within the reduced buffer, the Applicant appears to depict code compliant landscaping and elevated building design facing the existing residence. To help ensure this buffer closest to the existing residence (the southern quarter of the site) provides adequate screening, Staff is recommending the Applicant include additional trees for the first ISO feet of this buffer to show the trees touching at maturity. Staff believes with this additional landscaping, the proposed development offers compatible site design, buffering, and screening to the existing development to the east. "Establish and maintain levels of service for public facilities and services, including water, sewer,police,transportation, schools, fire,and parks"(3.02.01G).All public utilities are available for this project site due to the existing network abutting the site to the west and south, per Public Works comments. Subsequently, all public utilities will be extended at the Applicant's expense in order to connect to the existing services within the right-of-way. Further, the site is within the Fire Department response time goal of 5-minutes. Franklin Road is widened to its ultimate width in this location adjacent to the site and the Applicant is required to extend Lanark Street through the site to its east boundary. The subject development is only allowed an emergency access to Franklin because access to Lanark will be available. The required access to the public street network helps appropriately disperse vehicle trips for the subject site and the nearby uses as well. "Preserve the industrial base within designated industrial land use areas by discouraging non- industrial uses and focusing on light manufacturing,distribution,flex-space, and base- employment."(3.07.0113). The subject development does not propose non-industrial uses by proposing self-storage and flex space which are uses supported by the future land use designation as a whole and by this specific policy. "Require appropriate landscaping,buffers, and noise mitigation with new development along transportation corridors(setback,vegetation,low walls,berms, etc.)."(3.07.01 Q.As noted above, the Applicant is required to provide landscaping adjacent to the existing residence to the east but additionally the Applicant is required to provide a 35 foot landscape buffer along Franklin, an entryway corridor. Furthermore, the required E. Lanark extension is a collector Page 5 roadway which requires a minimum 20 foot landscape buffer with detached sidewalks. The Applicant is depicting both of these buffers and, as shown, should provide noise mitigation and buffer the transportation corridors from the proposed development. With the recommended revisions,Staff finds this development to be generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. C. Annexation: The Applicant is proposing to annex approximately 5.64 acres of land which is larger than the property size of 4.93 acres. This discrepancy is due to the Applicant being required to annex land to the centerline of adjacent right-of-way. In this case,this area includes Franklin Road right-of- way south of the property and railroad right-of-way north of the property. With previous applications north of the subject site,Applicants did not annex to the centerline of the railroad right-of-way which was a mistake and the City did not catch it. In light of this, Staff is asking the Applicant to revise their annexation and zoning request to include the full railroad right-of-way instead of just to the centerline. Staff has included this comment within the conditions of approval. D. Access(UDC 11-3A-3): Main access to the project is proposed via two driveway connections to the extension of E. Lanark, an industrial collector street. According to the submitted plat that depicts the proposed layouts for each use, each property is proposed to have one driveway connection to Lanark in alignment with each other located approximately 45 feet west of the east property line (measured from property line to center of driveways).No other access is proposed for the flex building on the north property. The south property containing the self-storage use is proposed to have an emergency only-access to Franklin Road; a secondary access is required to satisfy the specific use standards of the proposed use. Lanark is stubbed to the subject property's west boundary and is required to be extended into and through the property. Lanark is not able to be extended further than the subject property so the Applicant is required to terminate Lanark in a temporary cul-de- sac near the east boundary, according to the ACHD staff report. However, because the timeline of extension is not known and temporary cul-de-sacs require a large amount of area, the Applicant has proposed an alternative temporary turnaround by incorporating the needed space for a hammerhead type turnaround within the Lanark right-of- way and the driveways proposed to Lanark. This alternative was proposed after the ACHD staff report was issued so Staff is not aware if ACHD will approve this alternative. The Applicant should continue working with ACHD on the type of temporary turnaround allowed. The Meridian Deputy Fire Chief have given their approval of the alternative temporary turnaround shown on the submitted plat with the requirement that Lanark be signed "no parking"on both sides; the Applicant has agreed to this. Therefore, Stafffinds the proposed alternative to be sufficientfor approval by the City but understands revisions may occur to satisfy ACHD. These revisions would not affect the layout but would only increase the amount of asphalt on the property. Because the Applicant has to obtain final approval from ACHD on the proposed alternative turnaround and Staff includes a general provision to comply with ACHD conditions of approval, Page 6 Staff does not find it necessary to include a specific condition as part of this application and will confirm the outcome of the temporary turnaround at the time of final plat submittal. No other accesses are proposed or required with the submitted plat or proposed uses and each access complies with UDC requirements. E. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: No existing structures or site improvement appear to be present on the subject site. Two curb cuts exist to Franklin Road and both are proposed to be removed in lieu of the emergency access to Franklin for the proposed self-storage use. The Applicant is required to construct vertical curb, gutter, and repair any sidewalk while closing the two existing curb cuts. F. Proposed Use Analysis: The Applicant is proposing two industrial type uses, self-storage and flex space. Both uses are permitted use in the requested I-L zoning district,per UDC Table 11-2C-2. Self-service Storage Facilities are subject to specific use standards outlined in UDC 11-4-3-34 and Flex Space is subject to the specific use standards outlined in UDC 11-4-3-18. Although self-storage is an anticipated use on the subject property,Staff has expressed that more flex space and less storage is preferred in order to help provide more employment opportunities and contribute to the overall need of flex space in the Valley. Commission and Council should also determine if the proposed mix of uses is preferred by the City. According to the submitted plans,Staff finds the proposed self-service storage facility complies with all specific use standard except for the requirement to screen the property and the minimum 25 foot buffer to any residential use.It is unclear on the submitted plans whether any fencing is proposed. The Applicant should clarify this and provide an exhibit showing the type of fencing/wall proposed to satisfy this requirement.As noted above, the Applicant is proposing a 15 foot buffer adjacent to the residential use along the east boundary.Reducing a landscape use buffer requires a City Council waiver and is not eligible for Alternative Compliance,per UDC 11-5B-5.According to the resident's child to the east, it is not anticipated for their parents to be in this location long-term and this property is also shown as industrial on the future land use map. Staff is recommending denser landscaping is proposed along the first 150 feet of this buffer measured from the back of the required street buffer(185 feet from back of sidewalk). Further, the Applicant is required to provide a solid fence/wall to satisfy the specific use standards. With Staffs recommendation, the specific use standards, and the fact the property to the east is planned to be an industrial zoned property,Staff is supportive of the reduced buffer. Future development applications that show the floor plan of the proposed flex building will determine compliance with the flex space specific use standards in UDC 11-4-3-18. Staff typically verifies code compliance for flex space buildings at the time of Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC)which is a required approval prior to submitting for building permits. Staff notes, all buildings on the subject property will be required to obtain CZC and Design Review approval prior to building permit submittal. G. Dimensional Standards(UDC 11-2): The proposed building lots meet all UDC dimensional standards for the requested I-L zoning district for setbacks,building height, and proposed use. All subdivision developments are also required to comply with Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards(UDC 11-6C-3). This applies to the subject development because a preliminary plat was submitted. Staff finds the proposed plat complies with the standards outlined in UDC 11-6C-3. Page 7 H. Parking(UDC 11-3C): Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table II- 3C-6B for nonresidential buildings based on the gross floor area of the flex building and the area of the office for the self-storage facility at the ratio of 1 space per 2,000 square feet. Staff will confirm code compliance with this code section at the time of CZC and Design Review submittal. However, initial review of the submitted landscape plan depict parking in excess of code requirements on each site and for both uses. I. Sidewalks&Pathways (UDC 11-3A-17& UDC 11-3A-8): 5-foot wide detached sidewalks are required along the E. Lanark Street extension per UDC 11- 3A-17C. There is existing 7-foot attached sidewalk along the Franklin Road frontage that is proposed to remain. The proposed sidewalks comply with UDC requirements and the existing sidewalk along Franklin is required to be maintained or repaired should it sustain damage during construction. A multi-use pathway segment is shown within the railroad corridor north of the subject property. Per the Meridian Parks Department,the City is requiring a 14-foot wide pedestrian easement along the north property boundary for the preservation of a potential regional pathway segment along the rail corridor consistent with the Master Pathways Plan.According to the submitted plat, the Applicant is showing the required 14 foot easement along the north property line. J. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A minimum 35-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to E. Franklin Road, an arterial street and labeled as an entryway corridor. This buffer is required to be landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. According to the submitted plat and landscape plans, a minimum 35- foot landscape easement is depicted adjacent to Franklin,measured from the back of sidewalk. The submitted landscape plans confirm the minimum width of the landscape buffer but do not appear to show code compliant vegetation. Per UDC 11-3B-7C.3, no more than 65%of the landscape buffer area shall be comprised ofgrasses and additional landscape design is required along entryway corridors. Therefore, additional vegetative ground cover beyond that ofgrasses and additional landscape features are required to meet UDC standards. For example, as outlined in code, landscape features may include berms of no less than four to one (4:1)slope at a three- foot minimum height, decorative landscape walls (no greater than three(3)feet in height), decorative open vision fencing(no greater than four(4)feet in height), or a dry creek design with river rock, boulders, etc. are acceptable to meet this standard. Staff has included a condition of approval to comply with this standard. However, there are existing power poles along the Franklin frontage so the Applicant will be limited to Class I trees only; this does not preclude the Applicant from meeting the maximum ground cover percentage noted above. A 20-foot wide landscape buffer is required on both sides of the E. Lanark Street extension, an industrial collector street—the submitted plat depicts at least a 20 feet wide easement on both sides of this road extension measured from approximately the middle of the detached sidewalk. Therefore,the parkway strips between the sidewalks and back of curb for Lanark are not shown as part of the landscape easement. Staff has concerns with the parkways strips not being included within the landscape buffer easements along Lanark and the lack of any vegetation shown within these parkways on the submitted landscape plans. Staff recommends the landscape buffer easement be extended to the back of curb to comply with the UDC and to revise the landscape plans to show additional grasses within the parkway strip. Further, the landscape buffers along Lanark do not show the required vegetative ground cover, similar to the Franklin buffer. Therefore, Staff is also including Page 8 a condition of approval to add additional vegetative ground cover beyond grass to comply with UDC 11-3B-7C.3. K. Fencing(UDC 11-3A-7): All fencing is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7 and those areas applicable to the specific use standards for the proposed self-service storage facility(UDC 11-4- 3-34). No fencing is shown on the submitted landscape plan but fencing is required per the specific use standards for the proposed self-service storage facility use adjacent to the existing residential use to the east. Staff is including a condition of approval to include code compliant fencing along the entire east property boundary. L. Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): The applicant has submitted conceptual elevations of the proposed storage buildings and flex space building. All new nonresidential buildings require Administrative Design Review(DES) approval prior to building permit submittal.DES was not submitted concurrently with these applications so the Applicant will be required to submit for this with the future Certificate of Zoning Compliance(CZC) application. The conceptual elevations submitted depict 17 foot tall storage buildings at their highest and a 21 foot tall flex building. The storage buildings vary in overall size but appear to show varying roof profiles and finish materials facing relevant areas (roadways and the residence to the east). However, it is not entirely clear if the paneling shown facing the residence is metal or otherwise; metal paneling will not be allowed as a future field material. Overall, Staff finds the conceptual elevations should comply with the relevant standards but will review it in more detail at the time of CZC and Design Review submittal. M. Waterways(UDC 11-3A-6): The Evans Drain runs along the north property line with a majority of its easement on the subject property.No floodplain exists on the subject site nor along the Evans Drain in the vicinity. According to the submitted plat,this drain is proposed to be piped compliant with UDC 11-3A-6. Because this area of the plat is adjacent to a vehicular use area around the Flex building, parking lot landscaping is required per UDC 11-3B-8 and should include trees and other vegetative ground cover. The submitted landscape plans do not depict any trees within this area as the irrigation easement does not allow trees. Further, the Applicant will need to obtain a license agreement with the irrigation district in order to construct what is shown on the landscape plans. Staff does not find what is proposed on the landscape plans to comply with the minimum code requirements discussed. The Applicant should submit for Alternative Compliance with the future final plat to propose an equal or superior means of complying the landscaping outlined in UDC 11-3B-8 within or adjacent to the Evans Drain easement. VI. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the Applicant's request for annexation&zoning with the requirement of a Development Agreement and the preliminary plat request with the conditions noted in Section VIILA per the Findings in Section IX of this staff report.

Provide a pressurized irrigation system consistent with the standards as set forth in UDC I I- 3A-15,UDC 11-313-6 and MCC 9-1-28. 9. Upon completion of the landscape installation, a written Certificate of Completion shall be submitted to the Planning Division verifying all landscape improvements are in substantial compliance with the approved landscape plan as set forth in UDC 11-3B-14. 10. The preliminary plat approval shall become null and void if the applicant fails to either: 1) obtain the City Engineer signature on a final plat within two years of the date of the approved findings; or 2)obtain approval of a time extension as set forth in UDC 11-613-7. 11. Applicant shall tile all irrigation facilities within the development area per UDC 11-3A-6, unless waived by City Council. 12. At the public hearing on June 7,2022,the City Council approved the Applicant's waiver request to reduce the required land use buffer along the east property line to less than 15 feet wide. B. Public Works Department Site Specific Conditions of Approval 1. City utility easements must be clear of any permanent structure including but not limited to buildings, carports,trees, shrubs,fences,infiltration trenches, light poles, etc. There appears to be a fence separating the property from Franklin Road which will need to be removed to allow for a water crossing and easement. 2. The water main in East Lanark Street must end in a blow-off for future extension. 3. Sewer must be extended to the southern boundary at Franklin Road. Page 23 4. Easements must be a minimum of 20-foot-wide per utility, or 30-foot-wide for combined utility easement, as long as the minimum separation is maintained between water and sewer mains. The depicted easement going south is currently shown as 25-foot-wide,which does not meet this requirement. 5. No permanent structures can be within a City utility easement including but not limited to buildings, carports,trash enclosures,trees,bushes,fences, light poles, infiltration trenches, etc. 6. Ensure no sewer services cross infiltration trenches. General Conditions of Approval 1. Applicant shall coordinate water and sewer main size and routing with the Public Works Department, and execute standard forms of easements for any mains that are required to provide service outside of a public right-of-way. Minimum cover over sewer mains is three feet, if cover from top of pipe to sub-grade is less than three feet than alternate materials shall be used in conformance of City of Meridian Public Works Departments Standard Specifications. 2. Per Meridian City Code(MCC),the applicant shall be responsible to install sewer and water mains to and through this development. Applicant may be eligible for a reimbursement agreement for infrastructure enhancement per MCC 8-6-5. 3. The applicant shall provide easement(s) for all public water/sewer mains outside of public right of way(include all water services and hydrants). The easement widths shall be 20-feet wide for a single utility, or 30-feet wide for two. The easements shall not be dedicated via the plat,but rather dedicated outside the plat process using the City of Meridian's standard forms. The easement shall be graphically depicted on the plat for reference purposes. Submit an executed easement(on the form available from Public Works), a legal description prepared by an Idaho Licensed Professional Land Surveyor,which must include the area of the easement(marked EXHIBIT A)and an 81/2"x 11"map with bearings and distances (marked EXHIBIT B) for review. Both exhibits must be sealed, signed and dated by a Professional Land Surveyor. DO NOT RECORD. Add a note to the plat referencing this document. All easements must be submitted,reviewed, and approved prior to development plan approval. 4. The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems be supplied by a year-round source of water(MCC 9-1-28.C). The applicant should be required to use any existing surface or well water for the primary source. If a surface or well source is not available, a single-point connection to the culinary water system shall be required. If a single-point connection is utilized,the developer will be responsible for the payment of assessments for the common areas prior to prior to receiving development plan approval. 5. All existing structures that are required to be removed shall be prior to signature on the final plat by the City Engineer. Any structures that are allowed to remain shall be subject to evaluation and possible reassignment of street addressing to be in compliance with MCC. 6. All irrigation ditches, canals, laterals,or drains, exclusive of natural waterways,intersecting, crossing or laying adjacent and contiguous to the area being subdivided shall be addressed per UDC 11-3A-6. In performing such work,the applicant shall comply with Idaho Code 42- 1207 and any other applicable law or regulation. 7. Any wells that will not continue to be used must be properly abandoned according to Idaho Well Construction Standards Rules administered by the Idaho Department of Water Resources.
