Project Summary:
The property Owner is proposing to demolish an existing house and existing storage shed
on the site to provide new construction. There will be two pre-engineered metal frame
buildings containing a total of eight (8) upscale self-storage units. These units will be
designed to accommodate RVs, boats, classic cars, etc. with large overhead door
openings and separate man door entrances to each unit. Building materials will be
chosen to attract tenants and reflect the quality of the units and will be coordinated with
the City of Meridian's Design Review Checklist for Non-Residential projects.
Both a Rezone and an easement Vacation are required to continue the development of
the property. The property is currently zoned R 1 and is surrounded by various zones. To
the south, there is an existing wellness center zoned C-C Community Business district. On
the north side of the property, there is an existing residence zoned R1. The east side of
the property backs up to an existing industrial park zoned I-L. We are requesting Rezone
from R1 to I-L to support the development of our project. Based on Table 1 1-2C-2, self-
service Storage facilities are a permitted use for our property.
Our proposed site plan and future design drawings comply with Table 1 1-2C-3
Dimensional Standards in the Industrial Districts with the following setbacks:
• Street setback 35 feet
■ Street landscape buffer 25 feet (Arterial N. Linder Road)
■ Landscape buffer to residential uses *25 feet (5 feet provided)
■ Landscape buffer to nonindustrial uses 0 feet
■ Maximum building height 50 feet
■ Parking requirements 0 required, 8 provided
■ Landscaping requirements see landscape buffers above
*Adjoining property owner to the north has agreed to a maximum 5 foot
landscape buffer due to future use of property. The owner will provide signed
letters as needed.
An existing non-dedicated easement is to be vacated to provide additional area for the
proposed future buildings.
We respectfully request approval of a Rezone and easement Vacation as the first step in
developing our property to meet Meridian's overall goals for the area.
Please don't hesitate to contact me at 208.884.2824 x 1018 or iulie.miller@evstudio.com
with any questions.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
