V. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN(HTTPS://WWW.MERIDIANCITY.ORGICOMPPLAN):
Land Use:
This property is designated Mixed Use Non—Residential(MU-NR) on the Future Land Use Map
(FLUM).
The purpose of the MU-NR designation is to designate areas where new residential dwellings will not be
permitted, as residential uses are not compatible with the planned and/or existing uses in these areas. For
example,MU-NR areas are used near the City's Wastewater Resource Recovery Facility and where
there are heavy industrial or other hazardous operations that need to be buffered from residential.
The Applicant proposes to develop the site with an indoor recreation facility(i.e. an indoor pickleball
court facility)within a portion of an existing warehouse building. The warehouse was approved under
an administrative application(A-2020-0165)due to the existing industrial zoning and planned unit
development in 1991 (through Gemtone CUP). The planned unit development approved in 1991
allowed numerous uses beyond just those typically allowed in the I-L zoning district.
In the surrounding area,there is a church, offices, flex space, other warehousing uses, employment,
and other indoor recreation facilities in operation. With the addition of the proposed pickleball
courts next to existing multi-family and single family developments to the west, Staff believes the
proposed indoor recreation facility is a should complement other uses in the surrounding area and
provide opportunities for resdients to recreate. .
Therefore, Staff finds the proposed use should be an appropriate use in the MU-NR FLUM
designation for the reasons noted above.
In reviewing development applications,the following items will be considered in MU-NR areas: (Staffs
analysis in italics)
• No new residential uses will be permitted(existing residential may remain).No residential uses
are proposed.
• All developments should have a mix of at least two types of land uses. The overall MU-NR
designated area does have a mix of uses; offices,flex space, and a church exist to east of this site
within the MU-NR area.
• Development is not required to comply with the minimum number of uses in the general mixed-
use standards.Noted.
• Street sections consistent with the Ada County Highway District Master Street Map are required
within the Unified Development Code.No new streets are proposed.
• There is neither a minimum nor maximum imposed on non-retail commercial uses such as office,
food service/restaurants,industry, or warehouse uses.Noted.
• A transitional use is encouraged on the perimeter of the MU-NR areas between any existing or
planned residential development.As discussed above, Stafffinds an indoor recreation facility as a
transitional use between the existing multi family to the west and the western boundary of the
MU-NR area wAnd contributes to the mix of uses in the area for area residents.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES(https://www.meridianciU.or /g compplan):
Goals,Objectives, &Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be
applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property(staff analysis in italics):
• "Plan for an appropriate mix of land uses that ensures connectivity, livability, and economic
vitality."(3.06.02)
Page 4
The proposed use will contribute to the mix of uses in this area and should add to the livability
and economic vitality of the community.
• Monitor and adjust the amount and mix of industrial, commercial, and office areas needed to meet
the employment needs of the City." (3.06.01B)
The proposed use will contribute to the mix of uses in this area; however, the desire for
professional employment opportunities is diminished.
• `Encourage and support mixed-use areas that provide the benefits of being able to live, shop,
dine,play, and work in close proximity,thereby reducing vehicle trips, and enhancing overall
livability and sustainability."(3.06.02B)
The subject mixed-use area currently contains office, church uses,flex space, warehousing, and
an indoor recreation facility(KI Speed go-kart track)within the subject warehouse on this
property. The proposed use will provide another recreational opportunity in close proximity to
residential neighbors to the west thereby reducing vehicle trips and enhancing livability of the
area.
• "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." (3.07.01 D)
The proposed use is a non-industrial use requesting a CUP to occupy an industrial land use area
approved for warehousing. Staff has some concerns about approving another commercial use for an
indoor recreation facility(pickleball court)within the same building purposedfor industrial uses. If
approved, this would be the second such use in this building.
• "Protect public health and safety by guiding growth and development away from hazardous areas
that pose a threat to people and property." (4.10.00)
Operation of the proposed use should comply with City ordinances pertaining to noise, lighting,
and odor disturbances.
• "Provide,partner, and preserve public and private indoor and outdoor recreation amenities for a
diverse range of physical activities."(5.01.01 C)
The proposed indoor recreation facility offers opportunities for recreation through pickleball
courts to the public and will contribute to the range of physical activities offered in the City.
VI. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE UD
The proposed use,an indoor recreation facility, is listed as a conditional use in the I-L(Light Industrial)
zoning district per UDC Table 11-2C-2. Compliance with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table H-
2C-3 is required and are met because the proposed use is internal to an approved structure.
VII. STAFF ANALYSIS
As discussed above in Section V,the proposed indoor pickleball court facility is considered an appropriate
use and meets the development guidelines listed for the MU-NR designation.The use is also consistent with
the Planned Unit Development approved in 1991 for Gemtone Inc.,which approved a mix of commercial
and light industrial uses in the I-L zoning district.
The Applicant is requesting to modify the following conditions in Conditional Use Permit H-2022-0040 in
Section VII.A(Planning) of the Staff Report:
A.(2) "The applicant shall install a combination of 8 ft. high opaque fencing and additional evergreen
landscaping including trees or shrubs in the vicinity of the pathway along the western building elevation and
northwest property corner. Such screening shall be sufficient to provide visual screening of the equipment
and loading bays as viewed from the pathway and adjacent residential. Fencing and landscaping may have
Page 5
breaks and be clustered and grouped to maximize screening efficiency and produce a more natural
appearance."
The Applicant is requesting a modification to the CUP by proposing a 6-foot black polymer-coated
chainlink fence and additional evergreen trees and bushes along the northwest property boundary
only between the building and the multi-family residential. Therefore,not to obstruct access to the
pathway for residents living in the multi-family residential development.
Staff finds that the above-mentioned screening shall be sufficient to provide visual screening of the
equipment and loading bays as viewed from the pathway and adjacent residential. A detail of the
proposed fencing is included on the site plan submitted with this application that demonstrates
compliance with the standards in UDC 11-3A-7.
A.(4) "Hours of operation for industrial uses shall be limited to 7:00 AM to S:00 PM.Hours of operation
for the indoor recreation facility shall be limited to 12:06pm—10:OOpm Monday-Thursday, 10:00am—
10:00pm on Sundays, and 10:00am—11:06pm Fridays and Saturdays."
The Applicant's narrative states that they would like to modify the planned hours of operation
permitted with CUP (H-2022-0040)for all the proposed uses within the warehouse building that vary
throughout the week but do not exceed 6 am to 12 am seven days a week.
Because of the nature of the proposed use and the existing multi family residential to the west,Staff is
recommending a condition of approval consistent with these hours of operation.
This use is proposed to be contained within an existing warehouse,as noted above. The tenant space for the
pickleball court facility will be approximately 51,750 square feet within the warehouse with no exterior
modifications proposed to the building. The Applicant submitted a site plan showing tenant spaces that
includes additional parking stalls added on the west side of suites 100& 110.
The proposed use is subject to the following Specific Use Standards(UDC 11-4-3-2) -Arts,Entertainment
or Recreation Facility, Indoors and Outdoors: (Staff analysis in italics)
A. General Standards:
1. All outdoor recreation areas and structures that are not fully enclosed shall maintain a minimum
setback of one hundred feet(100') from any abutting residential districts. The playing areas of
golf courses, including golf tees, fairways,and greens, are an exception to this standard. (Ord.
07-1325, 7-10-2007).No outdoor recreation areas are proposed; all activities will take place
within the building.
2. No outdoor event or activity center shall be located within fifty feet(50) of any property line
and shall operate only between the hours of six o'clock(6:00)A.M. and eleven o'clock(11:00)
P.M.No outdoor events or activities are proposed.
3. Accessory uses including,but not limited to,retail, equipment rental,restaurant, and drinking
establishments may be allowed if designed to serve patrons of the use only.Noted.
4. Outdoor speaker systems shall comply with section 11-3A-13, "Outdoor Speaker Systems", of
this title.No outdoor speakers are proposed.
B. Additional Standards for Swimming Pools: Any outdoor swimming pool shall be completely
enclosed within a six foot(6)non-scalable fence that meets the requirements of the building code in
accord with title 10, chapter 1, of this code.Not applicable.
C. Additional Standards for Outdoor Stage or Musical Venue: Any use with a capacity of one hundred
(100)seats or more or within one thousand feet(1,000) of a residence or a residential district shall
Page 6
be subject to approval of a conditional use permit. (Ord. 05-1170, 8-30-2005, off. 9-15-2005). No
outdoor stage or musical venue is proposed.
Access(UDC 11-3A-31:
Four(4)driveway accesses are depicted and approved on the overall site plan—two(2)accesses via E. State
Avenue(local street)to the south and two (2)accesses via N. Hickory Avenue (industrial collector)to the
east.ACHD has approved the location of all access driveways with the administrative approvals for the
overall warehouse (A-2020-0165).
Parking(UDC 11-3C):
Based on the proposed tenant space of approximately 51,750 square feet of gross floor area,a minimum of
104 off-street parking spaces are required.As noted throughout the staff report,the building and other site
improvements are existing and include the off-street parking for the entire warehouse building.According to
the submitted site plan showing the existing site conditions, a total of 235 parking spaces are provided,
exceeding UDC standards. Based on 104 parking spaces provided for this use, a minimum of four(4)bicycle
parking spaces are required to be provided. The Applicant is proposing an additional 29 parking spaces to be
added to the site to accommodate the proposed pickleball court facility. Bicycle parking facilities were
approved at the time of CZC submittal but the submitted plans do not appear to clearly depict where
they are located.At the time of Certificate of Zoning Compliance(CZC) application submittal,the
Applicant should provide plans that clarify the bicycle parking location(s)for this use.
Because a vast majority of the area proposedfor the pickleball courts has a limited capacity of courts in the
facility, Staff does not have concerns on the number ofparking spaces available for the proposed use.
Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-1 :
There are existing 5-foot wide attached sidewalks along E. State Avenue and N. Hickory Avenue that meet
UDC standards. Any damaged curb,gutter or sidewalk is required to be replaced.
Landscaping(UDC 11-3B):
A 10-foot wide street buffer is required to be provided along E. State Avenue,a local street,and a 20-foot
wide street buffer is required along N. Hickory Avenue, a collector street, landscaped per the standards listed
in UDC 11-3B-7C. Parking lot landscaping is required per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-8C. A 25-foot
landscape buffer to the existing multi-family residential to the east is also required. The Applicant is
proposing additional evergreen trees and bushes to be added to the existing landscape buffer along the
northwest property boundary to provide further screening due to the underground ACHD drainage
facility under the pathway.
All required landscaping has been proposed and approved with previous approvals.Staffs analysis of the
approved landscape plan shows compliance with all applicable landscaping code sections. Staff
anticipates theproposed use to be less noxious or detrimental to the existing residential so no additional
landscaping is recommended by Staff at this time.
Outdoor Lighting(UDC 11-3A-11):
All outdoor lighting is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-11C unless otherwise
approved through alternative compliance. Light fixtures that have a maximum output of 1,800 lumens or
more are required to have an opaque top to prevent up-lighting; the bulb shall not be visible and shall have a
full cutoff shield in accord with Figure 1 in UDC 11-3A-11C.
All outdoor lighting was approved with the CZC approval in 2020. However, any future business signage
must comply with all standards outlined in UDC 11-3D.
Building Elevations:
The approved building elevations and perspectives were submitted for the warehouse structure as shown in
Section IX.D.As stated throughout this report, these elevations have already been approved through the
Page 7
administrative process and the building is already existing. The submitted elevations are for supplementary
purposes only.
Certificate of Zoning Compliance (UDC 11-5B-1):
A Certificate of Zoning Compliance(CZC)is required to be submitted for the proposed use and
provide staff with the revised plans prior to submittal of a building permit application to ensure
compliance with UDC standards and the conditions listed in Section X.
