IV. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN(HTTPS://WWW.MERIDIANCITY.ORG/COMPPLAN):
Land Use:
This property is designated Old Town(O-T)on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM).
This designation includes the historic downtown and the true community center. The boundary of
the Old Town district predominantly follows Meridian's historic plat boundaries. In several areas,
both sides of a street were incorporated into the boundary to encourage similar uses and
complimentary design of the facing houses and buildings. Sample uses include offices,retail and
lodging, theatres,restaurants, and service retail for surrounding residents and visitors. A variety of
residential uses are also envisioned and could include reuse of existing buildings,new construction
of multi-family residential over ground floor retail or office uses.
Page 3
EXHIBIT A
Proposed Use: The purpose of the request for rezoning is to facilitate the renovation of the existing
detached garage while retaining the property's current residential use. Furthermore, rezoning to O-T
would allow the Applicant to submit building permit applications for constructing a new building
and making structural modifications to the existing building without obtaining a Conditional Use
Permit for each proposed improvement to the site. A single-family detached dwelling unit is
considered a non-conforming use in the C-C zoning district per UDC Table 11-2B-2. The
Applicant intends to retain the existing home while renovating the old detached garage situated
behind the home. Additionally, the Applicant has future plans to potentially construct an Accessory
Dwelling Unit or Live/Work structure at a later date.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES(https://www.meridiancity.or /�pp1an):
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):
• Encourage diverse housing options suitable for various income levels,household sizes, and
lifestyle preferences. (2.01.01)
This application is for rezoning from C-C to O-T to allow the Applicant to remodel the existing
garage and maintain the existing home as a conforming residential use. This would allow for more
diversity in housing within the area.
• Maintain a range of residential land use designations that allow diverse lot sizes,housing types,
and densities. (2.01.01C)
The existing home contributes to the diversity in lot sizes, housing types, and densities within the
surrounding area.
• Encourage the development of high quality, dense residential and mixed-use areas near in and
around Downtown,near employment, large shopping centers, public open spaces and parks, and
along major transportation corridors,as shown on the Future Land Use Map. (2.02.01E)
The subject property is an existing site situated near the downtown core. It falls within a large area
that is designated for Old Town zoning as outlined by the Comprehensive Plan near N. Meridian
Rd., a principal arterial, and is within walking distance of a large amount of goods, services, and
employment.
• Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and the
extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City of
Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development.
and densities. (3.03.03A)
This project is currently serviced by City of Meridian water and sewer.
Based on the analysis above, staff finds the proposed development is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
V. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE(UDC
The proposed use, single-family detached dwelling unit is listed as a principally permitted use in the
O-T(Old Town)zoning district per UDC Table.]1-2C-2.Compliance with the standards listed in UDC
11-2D-3 and I1-2D-4 is required.

VI. STAFF ANALYSIS
Rezone(RZ):
The Applicant is requesting to rezone 0.60 acres of land from the C-C zoning district to the O-T
zoning district for the purpose of remodeling the existing detached garage and transitioning the
property's current existing single-family detached residential use from non-conforming to
conforming. A legal description and exhibit map for the rezone area is included in Section VIII.A.
This property is within the City's Area of City Impact boundary.
The City may require a development agreement(DA)in conjunction with a rezone pursuant to
Idaho Code section 67-6511A. The City may require a development agreement(DA)in
conjunction with a rezone pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. To ensure future
development is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and with the development plan proposed
with this application,Staff recommends a DA is required with this application,containing the
provisions noted in Section IX.,as discussed herein.
Dimensional Standards (UDC 11-2 :
There are no minimum setbacks in the O-T zoning district. The existing home meets all
dimensional standards for the O-T zoning district.
Access(UDC 11-3A-3):
Access is provided via N. Meridian Road, an arterial street, via a fully improved"U"shaped driveway.
This driveway does not adhere to the ACHD District's guidelines for successive driveways in terms of
alignment or offset, as it falls short of the minimum of 330 feet separation from any existing or proposed
driveway,and is not located a minimum of 355-feet away from the nearest intersection. Since the
applicant is not intensifying or changing the use of the property staff and ACHD are supportive of the
driveway configuration remaining for the residential use. Per UDC 11-3A-3 when a property takes access
from an arterial street and prior to any new,expanded,or extended use or development of the property,to
adjoining properties,the property owner is required to grant cross access.Further,this requirement may
extend to residential properties where the use is anticipated to change to a nonresidential use.As noted
above,the property owner intends to expand the site in the fixture. Since the property abuts several
underdeveloped properties and there is the potential for further expansion on the property, Staff believes
cross access is warranted,but identifying which properties and the exact location for the shared driveways
will be determined when actual development is proposed for the property.This may include closing one or
both driveways. Staff recommends that in the event the property intensifies or redevelops in the fixture, the
Applicant should provide cross/access to the neighboring properties located to the south,north,and east to
eliminate the need for multiple accesses off an arterial roadway within close proximity in accord with
UDC 11-3A-3.
Parking(UDC 11-3
The existing home has a driveway off of Meridian Road that contains a 20' x 20' parking pad and a
two-car garage. UDC 11-3C-6 requires 4 parking spaces for a three and four-bedroom home, at least
two in an enclosed garage, other spaces may be enclosed or a minimum 10-foot by 20-foot parking
pad. In reviewing the County Assessor's records,it appears the home currently has three bedrooms.
Therefore, the parkingprovided on-site meets the minimum requirements of 11-3C-6.
Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-1 7:
There is an existing 7-foot wide attached sidewalk on Meridian Road along the existing property
frontage that is consistent with ACHD's district policy for arterial roads with the exception of
dedicated right-of-way; therefore, additional right-of-way dedication totaling 96-feet on Meridian
Road abutting the site should be required as part of a future application. Based on ACHD's
recommendation of approval, Staff recommends that the Applicant provide a permanent right-of-
way easement to 2 feet behind the back of the sidewalk for any sidewalk placed outside of the
dedicated right-of-way.
Page 5
EXHIBIT A
Landscaping(UDC 11-3B):
A landscape buffer is not required for a single-family dwelling unit in the O-T zoning district. The
UDC does not regulate landscaping on residential lots.However,the existing house is currently
setback approximately 30 feet from Meridian Road leaving several areas in front of the residence
that could be landscaped to enhance the streetscape along Meridian Rd Staff believes the street
frontage should be landscaped with a mix of trees, shrubs, lawn, hardscapes, and/or a water-
conserving design in accord with UDC 11-3B-7C.
Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6,11-3A-7):
There is not existing fencing on the property. There is an existing CMU wall on the south side of the
property. Any new or relocated fencing should comply with fencing regulations per UDC 11-3A-7.
Outdoor Lighting(UDC 11-3A-11
All outdoor lighting is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC I I-3A-I I C 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 I in UDC I I-3A-I I C.
Building Elevations:
The existing building consists of stucco,brick, and asphalt roof shingles. A Design Review
application is not required for single-family dwellings;however, when the property redevelops to
commercial use in the future, a Design Review application will be required
A Certificate of Zoning Compliance application is required to be submitted for approval for future
re-development for commercial uses on this site to ensure compliance with UDC standards and
development provisions associated with this application.
