Zoning Amendment Findings
According to Meridian Ci ty Code (M CC) 11-15-11, General Standards App Ii cable to
Zoning Amendments, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and Council are required
"to review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in
temlS of the following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the
following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11:
Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive
Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a Comprehensive Plan
amendment;
In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'medium density' is defined as areas
including single-family homes at densities of three to eight dwelling units per
acre. Staff finds that the requested zoning designation, R~8, is harmonious with
and in accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map,
which designates the land to be "Medium Density Residential". The 3.58 dwelling
units per acre proposed with the preliminary plat are consistent with previous
Commission and Council actions and generally confoffil to the goals, objectives,
and action items contained in the Comprehensive Plan for this area. In addition,
the applicant's cover letter (dated March 7, 2005) lists several Comprehensive
Plan policies, all of which support the aImexation and proposed residential use of
the property.
Staff finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be applicable
to this application (staff analysis is in italics below policy):
After evaluating the original preliminalY plat submittal and the Comprehensive
Plan policies regarding hazardous use (floodplain), multi-use pathway, and
preservation of natural features areas, staff discussed with the applicants agent
the portion of the site within the floodplain and along the Ridenbaugh Canal, the
Eight-Mile Drain and Ten-Mile Drain designated for multi-use pathways. Staff
expressed concerns that the proposal needed to conform to the purpose statement
of the natural features goals and policies and staff can make the findings to
recommend approval based on the following:
Chapter V A.2 P30 - Hazardous Areas - The purpose of the floodplain District is
to guide development in the flood-prone areas of any watercourse that is
consistent with the requirements for the conveyance of flood flows and to
minimize the expense and inconveniences to the individual property owners and
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
the general public through flooding. Uses pennitted in this district are generally
associated with open space, recreational, and agricultural land uses and do not
hinder the movement of floodwaters.
The applicant has submitted a letter from Paul Kunz (April 28, 2005)
indicating that the applicant has made the first indications of filing for a
Letter of Map Revision to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The
letter indicates that if the farm access roads are removed within the
Bellingham Park proposal thell the 1 DO-year floods would be contained within
the naturally graded banks of Ten-Mile Creek.
As reported soils types closest to the Ten MUe Creek are prone to flooding
with seasonal high groundwater levels at 5-10 feet below grade.
The submitted plan has seventy (70) lots proposed in the current floodplain
designation.
The applicant has reviewed a letter from John Anderson, of Nampa Meridian
Irrigation District addressing usage along major canal systems. Staff feels
the plat dated March 14, 2005 adequately addresses the location of the multi-
use pathways which provide a buffer from the creeks to residential lots and
will not hinder the movement affloodwaters.
Chapter VI C.2 P71 - Multiuse pathways: Pathways that encourage use by
bicyclists and pedestrians can decrease road congestion and add to the
community's quality of life. The proposed off-street and multiuse pathway
systems are depicted in Figures VI~3 and VI-4. New and existing developments
should ensure that the guidelines laid out in this plan are adopted.
The applicant has included multiuse pathways proposed in this development.
The Comprehensive Plan indicates in Figures VI -3 and VI-4 the locations of
pathways along the Ridenbaugh Canal, Eight Mile Creek, and Ten-Mile
Creek.
In response to the Nampa Meridian Irrigation District letter indicating the
need to have all pathways located away from the interchange of the Ten-Mile
Creek and the Ridenbaugh Canal, the applicant has proposed an alternate
route for the pathway. Staff supports the pathway system in these locations.
With the relocation of the pathways away from the canal systems the applicant
has also proposed a more intensive use closer to the irrigation interchange
than a pathway.
The following goals and policies support the request for additional open
space along natural resources..
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
e "Preserve and conserve our waterways, wetlands, wildlife habitat, and
other natural resources."(Chapter V, Goal I, Objective AI)
III "Preserve open space for recreation conservation and aesthetics" (Chapter
V, Goal I, Objective A2)
· "Identify waterways; wetlands, and other natural resources for
preservation" (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action item 1)
· "Identify feasible interconnected greenbelt areas along waterways,
railroads, etc," (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action item 2)
o . "Develop and maintain greenbelts along waterways" (Chapter V, Goal I,
Objective A, Action item 4)
· "Improve and protect creeks (Five Mile, Eight Mile, Nine Mile, Ten Mile,
South Slough, and Jackson and Evans drainages) throughout conullercial,
industrial, and residential areas" (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action
item 11)
Staff also finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be
applicable to this application (staff analysis is in italics below policy):
· "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors
(setback, vegetation, low walls, benns, etc.)." (Chapter VII, Goal IV,
Objective D, Action item 4)
As depicted on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map, the applicant
is proposing to construct a 25joot wide landscape berm with vegetation
along Eagle Road. Staff is supportive of these widths, as long as the entire
buffer lies outside the ultimate right-of-way, and the sidewalk is located
outside afthe 25-foot wide buffer (or increase buffer to 40-feet). See Site
Specific Condition #5 in the Preliminary Plat section below.
· "Consider "Accommodating Bicycle and Pedestrian Travel: A Recommended
Approach" from the National Center for Bicycling and Walking in all land use
decisions." (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, #3)
This publication encourages jurisdictions to establish bikeway and walkway
facilities in new construction and reconstruction projects, in a manner that is
safe, accessible and convenient. The proposal as
· "On-street bikeways should be incorporated on all future Collector streets."
(Chapter VI, Figure VI-S)
Figure VI-5 on page 57 of the Comprehensive Plan designates an on-street
bikeway mid-mile between Victory Road and Amity Road. The applicant is
proposing a 36-foot street section for Wrightwood Way (collector). The
applicant has not proposed an onstreet bike path for Locust Grove road
between Victory and Amity but the addition of a lO-foot gravel shoulder for
future expansions should accommodate bike lanes.
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
A portion of the site located south of the quarter section line is locatd in the "Low
Density Residential" Designation. In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan,
'Low density' is defined as areas including single-family homes at densities of
three dwelling units or less per acre. The applicant is requesting that all the
subject site be zoned R-8 (Medium Density Residential) and has made a request
for a 'step Upl in density. The R-8 district allows for a maximum of eight (8)
dwelling units per acre (MCCll-7-2.C). The applicant's requested design
provides for larger lots consistent with a lower density transitional area, The
comprehensive plan states on Page 104, Objective D- Plan for appropriate uses
within rural areas: "Require new urban density subdivisions which abut or are
proximal to existing low density residential land uses to provide landscaped
screening or transitional densities with larger, more comparable lot sizes to
buffer the intel:face between urban level densities and rural residential densities. "
There is one approximately 3 acre lot located immediately south of the property
classified as Low density residential. The applicant has calculated a residential
density of 3.37 dwelling units to the acre for the overa1llow density designated
area, however the lots surrounding the southern property are significantly larger
and designed in such a matUler as to be least intrusive. Although it would be
possible to require an Rw4 zoning designation staff sees the value in allowing one
zoning designation on the entire subdivision. Staff SUPPOlis the step up in
density for this project.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on staff's analysis,
public testimony received and any comments submitted from any other agencies
or departments regarding whether the proposed zone and subsequent development
is harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Concurrent with the annexation and zoning application, the applicant has
submitted a preliminary plat and conditional use permit proposing single-family
lots on the subject site (PP-05-019 & CUP-05-026). Staff does not anticipate that
the applicant plans to rezone the subject property in the future if the
accompanying CUPIPD and PP applications are approved.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
The existing proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Staff does not
anticipate commercial or other uses are planned for the site.
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
D. Has thert;~ been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Staff finds that a substantial portion of the land to the north has been developed
(or approved for development) in a manner similar to the proposed subdivision,
with single-family dwelling units. The Tuscany Lakes Development (Tuscany
Lakesl Messina Hillsl Messina Village) to the north was approved with a gross
density of 2.34 dwelling units per acre and a school site. Tuscany Lakes
Subdivision is an R-4 subdivision with the lot range from 10,000 sq feet to 301000
square feet. Neighboring Ada County Developments are in the 1 acre to 5 acre
size range. This development is proposing significantly smaller lots, but within
the acceptable limits for a medium density development bordering a low density
residential area. '
There have been no recent street improvements in the area. Further, Eagle Road
(south of Victory Road) is not currently scheduled within ACHD's Five Year
Work Program or Capital Improvements Plan (eIP) for roadway widening.
This entire development is not currently serviceable by the City of Meridian's
sanitary sewer system. Phase 1 shall be served by a connection in Messina
Village Subdivision #2, while sewer service for the western and southem phases
ofthe development will be via the future main located along Ten-Mile Creek,
through Tuscany Subdivision and piped under the Ridenbaugh CanaL If this
development is approved, it shall be subject to extending the sewer system. Other
urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able
to extend such services to the site in cooperation with Meridian Public Works.
Staff finds that the subject site is more dense than surrounding proposals and
provides a housing type which has not been utilized in the immediate vicinity
(Blocks 22-23). The overall proposal is consistent for development in a fashion
similar to other properties in the area.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructedt operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
The applicant has submitted several front elevations for the proposed single-
family homes. If the homes are constructed in substantial compliance with the
submitted elevations, they will be similar in design to other residences in the area.
The existing character of the area will, and is; currently changing. However, this
is one of the first developments to apply for residential uses south of the
Ridenbaugh canal. This development will set the tone for how the rest of this area,
particularly the south, develops or does not develop.
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
The proposed homes must be designed. constructed, and maintained in sifmificant
compliance to the recommendations as listed by the Geotechnical experts report.
The houses must be designed in a fashion as to not allow any groundwater to
enter the crawlspaces, otherwise the housing products should be constructed
without crawlspaces.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Due to other existing and proposed uses near the site, staff does not anticipate that
the proposed zoning/uses will be physically hazardous to future or existing uses or
neighbors in the area,
The floodplain must be engineered as to not hinder any floodwaters leaving the
site. If a flood event occurs and bulldings impact the flow of water downstream
then the use may become hazardous to the neighboring properties.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on staff analysis,
comments from other agencies, and public testimony to determine whether the
proposed use will be disturbing or hazardous to the existing neighboring uses and
future expected uses in this vicinity.
G. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services
such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures,
refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for the
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
This entire development is not currently serviceable by the City of Meridian's
sanitary sewer system. Phase 1 shall be served by a connection in Messina
Village Subdivision #2, while sewer service for the western and southern phases
of the development will be via the future main located along Ten-Mile Creek,
through Tuscany Subdivision and piped under the Ridenbaugh Canal. Iftms
development is approved, it shall be subject to extending the sewer system. Other
urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able
to extend such services to the site. Water to serve this development is existing or
currently under development with Tuscany Lakes Subdivision. The applicant shall
be responsible for the extension of utilities to and through this proposed
development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the Public Works
Department.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay park and
highway impact fees as well as construct on-site storm water drainage facilities.
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
Based on the comments received from other agencies/departments, staff finds that
the public services listed above can be made available to accommodate the
proposed development. The Commission and Council should reference any
written and/or verbal testimony submitted by any public service provider,
regarding their ability to adequately service this project.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, public
street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents will be firel police, school
facilities and services. Staff finds there will not be excessive additional
requirements at public cost and this development will not be detrimental to the
economic welfare ofthe community.
I. Will the proposed uses not involve uses, activities, processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production' of
traffic~ noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
Staff recognizes that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of a
development on this site; however, staff does not believe that the amount
generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Staff does not
anticipate that annexation and development in accordance with current city code
and the Comprehensive Plan will create excessive noise, smoke) fumes, glare) or
odors.
Fencing along all canals and waterways shall be a minimum of 6' in height and
constructed of non-combustible materials as to not interfere with regular
maintenance of ditches and waterways by Nampa Meridian Irrigation District.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
The applicant is proposing to construct one public street entrance into the site
from Eagle Road and a public street connection to the site from Amity Road and a
stub street at the ~ section line as outlined by the comprehensive plan. The
proposed public street entrances to Eagle and Amity Roads have been proposed to
ACHD. If all vehicular approaches (streets) are approved and constructed in
accordance with ACHD policies, staff does not believe that the subdivision will
create interference with traffic on the surrounding public streets. Please review
any comments from ACHD for this project for additional information regarding
this finding.
Exhibit G - Messina Meadows
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
The comprehensive plan defines the Ten-Mile Creek and Eight Mile Creek as a
natural features of importance, as described in the Annexation and Zoning
Analysis A. The applicant should make all attempts at preservation of this natural
feature, There are many game species in the vicinity which utilize the drainage
systems for habitat.
Any existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed should be mitigated for,
per the Landscape Ordinance.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public
testimony that may be presented to determine whether or not the proposed
development may result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature(s) of importance of which staff is unaware.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)?
In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that the
annexation/zoning of this property, as proposed by the applicant, would be in the
best interest of the City.

Preliminary Plat Findings
Sections 12-3-3 1.2 and 12-3~5 D read as follows: "In detenninillg the acceptance ofa
proposed subdivision, the Commission/Council shall consider the objectives of this title
and at least the following:
A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A" above.
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis '"G" above.
c. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement
program;
Because the developer win be required to install sewer, water, and utilities for the
development at their cost, staff fmds that a development on this property will not
require the expenditure of capital improvement funds.
D. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
The development will not require major expenditures for providing suppOliing
services. Staff recommends the Commission and Council rely upon comments
submitted from the public service providers (Le. police, fire, ACHD, etc.) to
determine this finding. (See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis
above, and the Agency Comments and Conditions at the end of this report for
more detail.)
E. The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to
the Commission's attention.
Staff finds that there should not be any health, safety or environmental problems
associated with this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor
Commission's attention; other than the floodway and potential groundwater/soils
issues previously discussed, no hazardous natural features have been identified on
the site. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis. Staff finds the
Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony that may be
presented to determine whether the proposed use may cause health, safety or
environmental problems of which staff are aware.

SPECI~ CONSIDERA TIONS~CONDITIONAL USE PERl\UT
I. Reduced Standards: As stated earlier, the applicant is requesting modifications
from standard ordinance requirements for street frontage and lot size.
Lot Size: The applicant has requested reduced lot sizes; the submitted preliminary
plat has lots below the 6,500 square-foot minimum size. Therefore, a modification
Exhibit 1- Messina Meadows
to the standard R-8 lot size of 6,500 square-feet is applicable. The proposed lot
sizes range from 3,600 square-feet to 30,713 square-feet.
Lot Frontage: The minimum requested street frontage is 40-feet. There are lots
that have between 40-feet and 168-feet of frontage (65-feet is the minimum for
the R.8 zone). The Lots located in Blocks 22 and 23 along the private streets and
the lots to be accessed through Common Drives also require relief from the
minimum street frontage. Staff is supportive of reducing the frontage for some of
the lots as it provides lot diversity.
Setbacks: The minimum requested setbacks as defined by the submittal of
3/14/05 is detailed above. Staffreconunends that all street setbacks comply with
these requests (See Site Specific Conditions-Preliminary Plat). Side yard
setbacks shall be five (5) feet and rear yard setbacks shall be 15 feet. Staff would
recommend even greater setbacks for lots along canals and waterways to help
mitigate any NMID issues.
2. Amenities: MCC 12w6w2.A.3 requires two or more amenities to be provided as
part of each planned development. The proposed amenities for the subject planned
development include: a 8.S-acre public park, an extensive open space lot system
for multi-use pathways and a common lot with a clubhouse and a pool. The
proposed open space makes up greater than 10% of the site, 5% minimum is
required and it takes 10% to count open space as an amenity. However, on site
parking for the public park has not been addressed by the applicant. On-street
parking will be limited adjacent to the 8.5 acre park along the collector roadways_
The applicant is proposing parking for the clubhouse located on Lot 3, Block 1 to
be located off of Tusa Street. As proposed, staff believes the proposed park and
open space areas provide sufficient amenities relative to the size of the proposed
development. Landscaped open space means land exclusive of street rights-of-
way and street buffers, except for right-of-way specifically dedicated for
landscaping within a subdivision. The applicant states that the total open space
areas account for 18.68 acres of which approximately 14-acres count toward open
space which meets the open space definition in the PD ordinance. No drainage
lots, required street buffers, or canal buffers have been included in this
calculation.
3. Elevations: The applicant has submitted several front elevation drawings for the
proposed dwelling units. Staff believes that the dwelling units will be compatible
with the adjoining uses, ifthe buildings are constructed as shown on the submitted
elevations. Construction within Messina Meadows Subdivision should
substantially comply with the elevations submitted by the applicant Construction
materials used on the structures should be approved by the City of Meridian
Building Department and in accordance with the most recent Uniform Building
Code. See Site Specific Condition #4 below.
Exhibit I - Messina Meadows
