Amenities: For multi-family developments between 20 and 75 units, three amenities shall be provided, with 1 from each category (Quality of Life, Open Space, and Recreation)(UDC 11- 4-3.27D-2d). The applicant is providing amenities as follows: enclosed bike storage (Quality Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP-06-021/CUP-06-0 14 PAGE 4 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 of Life), property management office, maintenance storage area, development map/directory, (Recreation), tot-lot (Recreation), walking path/sidewalks (Recreation), and open space (Open Space). 1. Off-Street Parking: UDC 11-3C-6A requires multi -family dwellings with 2 or more bedrooms to have a two-car covered carport or garage for each unit. The submitted preliminary plat proposes covered parking spaces for most ofthe multi-family (4-plex) dwellings. Because all of the units in this development contain two or more bedrooms, all of the parking stalls in this development should be covered. Also, staff has concern about the remoteness of some of the parking stalls, in relation to the units. Please see Section 10 of the Staff Report below for more analysis. J. Conditional Use Information: 1. Non-residential square footage: 200 square feet bike & maintenance storage 2. Proposed building height: 22 feet; R-15 zone allows 40 feet 3. Percentage of site devoted to building coverage: approximately 25% 4. Percentage of site devoted to landscaping: approximately 20% 5. Percentage of site devoted to paving: approximately 55% 6. Percentage of site devoted to other uses: 0% 7. Number of Residential units: 24 k. Summary of Proposed Streets and/or Access (private, public, COInmon drive, etc.): There are two public streets stubbed to the subject property from the east. West Broadway Avenue is stubbed to the southern portion ofthis site and Idaho Avenue is stubbed to the northern portion of this site. The applicant is proposing to extend Broadway Avenue into the site from the east with a cul~de-sac. A loop private driveway system is proposed around the Broadway Avenue cul-de-sac. The applicant is not proposing to extend the Idaho Avenue stub into the site. NOTE: ACHD is not requiring that Idaho Avenue be extended into the site at this time. When and if the church lot, Lot 1, Block 1, comes in for a Certificate of Zoning Compliance for any additions or re-constructions in the future, staff intends to require a permanent public turnaround for Idaho Street. There are two existing driveways to Pine Avenue that serve the existing church. ACHD has not evaluated these driveways for compliance with policy. Please see Exhibit B for ACHD' s comments and conditions regarding this development. 7. AGENCY COMMENTS MEETING On April 28, 2006, staff held an agency comments meeting. The agencies and departments present included: Meridian Fire Department, Meridian Police, Meridian Public Works Department, and the Sanitary Services Company. Staffhas included all comments and recommended actions as Conditions of Approval in Exhibit B. 8. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The subject site is designated 'Public/Quasi-Public' on the Meridian Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Public/Quasi Public is defined as "Areas are designated to preserve and protect existing private, municipal, state, and federal lands for area residents and visitors. This category includes churches and public lands (excluding parks and schools) within the Area of Impact. Upon redevelopment of such properties, a change in designation and use may be appropriate. The redevelopment of these areas should be guided by the intensity of the existing use, the underlying zoning of the property, the surrounding land uses, the location of the property, and transportation issues associated with the proposed development of the property. The appropriate land use Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP-06-021/CUP-06-0 14 PAGE 5 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 designation and accompanying zoning for these areas will be determined by City Council on a case by case basis." (Chapter VII, Section 1, Pg. 99, Meridian Comprehensive Plan). Within this report, staff has evaluated the subject proposal using the existing use, the underlying zoning, the surrounding land uses, the location of the property, and transportation. The lands immediately to the west have previously been approved for multi-family uses. The property to the north and east are residential. Staff believes that the existing church, zoned R-4, and the proposed multi-family development can be compatible uses. This property is located between Pine Avenue, a collector roadway, and the railroad, a potential future transportation corridor. Staff believes that the location of this proposed medium-high density development is supported by the Comprehensive Plan. While the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map does not explicitly support the proposed zone change, staff finds that there are several Comprehensive Plan policies that do support the proposed zone change. Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the proposed development (staff analysis in italics below policy): · Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. (Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1) When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the subject property. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands in the following manner: . The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department. This service will not change. . The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Police Department (MPD). This service will not change. · The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the Ada County Highway District (ACHD). This service will not change. · The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District #2. This service will not change. . The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library District. This service will not change and the Meridian Library District should suffer no revenue loss as a result of the subject rezone. Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by the Meridian Building Department, the Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian Wastewater Department, the Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary Services Company. · Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 2: Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets. Pine Avenue is classified as a collector roadway in this area. The existing access points to Pine Avenue should comply with ACHD 's standards. . Chapter VII, Goal IV, Obj ective C, Action 1: Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels. This is an infill parcel with the properties adjacent to the subject site varying in density and housing type. North of the site are existing single-family dwellings. East of the site is a single-family subdivision. West of the site is a mixed-use development with multi-family Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP -06-021/CUP -06-0 14 PAGE 6 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 dwellings. Staff believes that the proposed development should be compatible with the existing land uses. · Chapter V, Goall, Objective A, Action 11: Improve and protect creeks (Five Mile, Eight Mile, Nine Mile, Ten Mile, South Slough, and Jackson and Evans drainages) throughout commercial, industrial and residential areas. The Rutledge Lateral and the Ninemile Creek course through or are adjacent to this site. Staff believes that the Ninemile Creek should be protected and enhanced by being left open and by the applicant constmcting a pathway adjacent to the Ninemi/e Creek (see Exhibit B). · Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 5: Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridor (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.). The avplicant is not vrovosinfl any landscavinf! ad;acent to Pine Avenue. By ordinance, a 20- foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to Pine Avenue. · Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 3: Consider "Accommodating Bicycle and Pedestrian Travel: A Recommended Approach" from the National Center for Bicycling and Walking in all land-use decisions. This publication encourages jurisdictions to establish bikeway and walkway facilities in new construction and reconstmction projects, in a manner that is safe, accessible and convenient. Staff believes that the subject applications generally comply with the policies listed in the literature noted above. · Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 6: Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to enhance connectivity and better traffic flow. The project to the west, Rock Creek, has not provided opportunities for the subject site to provide vehicular connectivity (no stub streets or driveways). However, two stub streets were provided to this site from the east. The applicant is proposing to extend one of the two stub streets into this site. This proposal will provide interconnectivity with the subdivisions to the east. · Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 5: Require pedestrian access connectors in all new development to link subdivisions together to promote neighborhood connectivity as part of a community pathway system. The adjacent project to the west, Rock Creek, has provided a pedestrian connection to this site along the north side of the Ninemile Creek. The applicant is proposing to extend this pathway to and through the development. Because the property to the east has already been developed, the City should look into extending the pathway further to the east. This proposal should enhance the community pathway system. · Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action 6: Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote neighborhood connectivity. See analysis above. Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP -06-021 /CUP -06-014 PAGE 7 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 · Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective D, Action 9: Require new residential development to provide permanent perimeter fencing to contain construction debris on site and prevent windblown debris from entering adjacent agricultural and other properties. Prior to construction of any buildings, fencing should be constructed around the perimeter of this site. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on any verbal or written testimony that may be provided at the public hearing when determining if the applicant's zoning and development request is appropriate for this property. 9. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE a. Allowed Uses in the Residential Districts: UDC Table ll-2A-2lists multi-family development uses as conditional uses in the R-15 zoning district; churches are principally permitted in the L-O zoning district. b.

ANALYSIS Analysis Leading to Staff Recommendation As submitted, the subject applications appear to substantially comply with the Unified Development Code and the Comprehensive Plan. However, there are some modifications to the site plan, the preliminary plat, and the landscape plan that staff would like to see made. In each section below, staff has listed the items that staff would like to see amended. 1. AZ Application: Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan staff believes that this is a good location for a higher density development and the proposed R-15 and L-O zoning. Please see Exhibit D for detailed analysis of the required facts and fmdings for a Zoning Amendment. The annexation legal description submitted with the application (stamped on 3/8/2006 by Robert W. Fodrea, PLS) shows the property within the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian. UDC 11-5B-3D2 and Idaho Code 9 65~6711A provides the City the authority to require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement (DA) with the City that may require some written commitment for all future uses. Staff believes that a DA is necessary to ensure that this property is developed in a fashion as to not negatively impact nearby properties. Prior to the rezone ordinance approval, a Development Agreement (DA) shall be entered into between the City of Meridian, property owner(s) (at the time of rezone ordinance adoption), and the developer. The applicant shall contact the City Attorney. Bill Nary. at 888-4433 to initiate this process. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council direct the City's Legal Department to draft a development agreement for the R~15 portion of Rushmore Subdivision only as follows: Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP-06-021/CUP-06-014 PAGE 10 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 1. That all future development shall 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. 2. That all future development of the subject property shall be consistent with the applicant's approved preliminary plat unless otherwise modified by other provisions of the DA, or in the future by the City Council. 3. That all future development of the subject property shall be constructed in accordance with City of Meridian ordinances in effect at the time of development. 4. That the future uses and lots on this site shall conform to the District Regulations contained in the Unified Development Code (UDC), in effect at the time of development. 5. That the applicant will be responsible for all costs associated with the sewer and water service extension. 6. That any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project will have to be removed from their domestic service, per City Ordinance Section 5-7-517, when services are available from the City of Meridian. Wells may be used for non-domestic purposes such as landscape irrigation. 7. That prior to issuance of any building permit, the subj ect property be subdivided (a recorded final plat) in accordance with the City of Meridian Unified Development Code. 8. That when any new construction occurs on Lot 1, Block 1 (church lot), a landscape street buffer along Pine Avenue will be constructed in accordance with the UDC (or a new CUP must be submitted and approved by the City), 2. PP/CUP Applications: Landscaping: The landscape plan prepared by South Landscape Architecture, on 2-14- 06, labeled Sheet Ll.O, is approved with the following modifications/notes: . Provide landscaping in compliance with UDC 11-3B-12, adjacent to the pedestrian pathway on the north side of the Ninemile Creek. . Widen to at least 5 feet (measured inside curbs) and provide at least one tree within the landscape planter in the parking stalls between Lots 3 and 4, Block 2 (UDC 11-3B-8C2) . All areas approved as open space shall be free of wet ponds or other such nuisances. All stormwater detention facilities incorporated into the approved open space are subject to UDC 11-3B-l1 and shall be fully vegetated with grass and trees. Sand, gravel or other non-vegetated surface materials shall not be used in open space lots, except as permitted under UDC 11- 3B-l1. If the stormwater detention facility cannot be incorporated into the approved open space and still meet the standards of UDC 11-3B-11, then the applicant shall relocate the facility. This may require losing a developable lot or developable area. . A written certificate of completion shall be prepared by the landscape architect, designer, or qualified nurseryman responsible for the landscape plan and submitted prior to City Council signature of the Final Plat. All standards of installation shall apply as listed in UDC 11-3B-14. Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP -06-021 /CUP -06-014 PAGE 11 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 Submit revised landscape plans with the final plat application. Multi-familv Standards: The UDC has several specific standards that apply to multi- family developments (See UDC Section 9 above for a complete list.) These standards apply to Site Design, Common Open Space, Site Amenities, Architectural Character, Landscaping, and Maintenance. Below are some of the standards that the applicant should be required to comply with. Private Useable Open Space: UDC 11-4-3.27B requires a minimum of 80 square feet of private, usable open space shall be provided for each unit. This requirement can be satisfied through porches, patios, decks, and/or enclosed yards. Landscaping, entryway and other access ways shall not count toward this requirement. It appears that there is some type of a patio area on the rear of the proposed 4-plexes. However this does not appear to be enough private area for each unit within each building. The applicant should clarify. at the public hearing. how the private useable open space requirement will be met for each unit. Parking: UDC 11-3C-6A requires multi-family dwellings with 2 or more bedrooms to have a two-car covered carport or garage for each unit. All 24 of the proposed units contain 2 or more bedrooms. The submitted preliminary plat does depict that 44 ofthe 48 proposed parking spaces will be covered. The applicant should be required to comply with the off-street parking requirements of the UDC. NOTE: Staff has concerns with how far away the parking area on the northeast side of the multi-family portion ofthis development is from the units. See Site Layout below. Amenities: The applicant is required to provide amenities for the multifamily development. For multi-family developments between 20 and 75 units, three amenities shall be provided, with 1 from each category (Quality of Life, Open Space, and Recreation)(UDC 11-4-3.27D-2d). The applicant is providing amenities as follows: enclosed bike storage (Quality of Life), property management office, maintenance storage area, development map/directory, (Recreation), tot~lot (Recreation), walking path/sidewalks (Recreation), and open space (Open Space). Staff believes that the proposed amenities satisfy the UDC requirements. Staffis supportive of the proposed amenities. Elevations: With the application submittal the applicant provided one building elevation (front) for the proposed 4-plex structures. Since the original submittal the applicant has provided all four building elevations to staff. UDC 11-4-3 requires multifamily structures to comply with the design standards listed in this section. It appears that the elevations provided comply with UDC ll-4-3.27E. NOTE: Staffwill ensure that when CZC applications are submitted for construction of the 4-plex buildings in the future, that the elevations also comply with the UDC requirements and are consistent with those attached in Exhibit A. Pedestrian Paths: With the approval of the Rock Creek development to the west, a 5- foot wide pedestrian walkway was required on the north side of the Ninemile Creek. The applicant is proposing to extend the pedestrian pathway in Rock Creek to this site's eastern boundary. Said pathway should be constructed in accordance with UDC 11-3A-8 (construction) and UDC ll-3B (landscaping). Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP-06-021/CUP-06-014 PAGE 12 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 In 1996, COMPASS adopted the pathway recommendations laid out in the Ridge-to- Rivers Pathway Plan (1996). The goals of the plan include developing a bikeway and pathway system that encourages non-motorized transportation and enhances recreational opportunities. The Union Pacific Railroad corridor abutting the south property line is shown as a proposed multi-use pathway in Figure VI-3 (Off-Street Multiple-Use Pathways) in the adopted Comprehensive Plan. There is also a multi-use pathway shown adjacent to the Ninemile Drain in the Comprehensive Plan. In the past, the City has not required the construction of a pathway within the Union Pacific Railroad corridor, but has required developers that abut the future pathway to provide a minimum of 5-feet of landscaping. Consistent with previous Council action, the Applicant should not be required to construct a multi-use pathway adjacent to the southern boundary, but should be required to provide a minimum of 5-feet of landscaping along the south property line. There is an existing 25-foot wide irrigation easement within the rear setback. At a minimum, the Applicant should be required to plant trees in accordance with MCC (1 tree per every 35-lineal feet) on the south side of the buildings. Ninemile Creek and Rutledl!e Lateral: The Ninemile Creek and the Rutledge Lateral course through or are adjacent to this site. UDC ll-3A-6 requires natural waterways to be left open as a natural amenity, and for irrigation ditches, laterals, canals and drains that are not being used as an amenity to be piped or otherwise covered. The Ninemile Creek is a natural waterway that should be protected and enhanced by leaving it open and constructing a pathway adjacent to it. The Rutledge Lateral should be piped. Multi-familv Setbacks: The UDC does not have a specific setback between internal multi-family units. However, there may be a problem with not providing a fulll0-foot front setback to the 4-plex units; utilities may need a wider easement. The front setback shown on the proposed 4-plex units, approximately 12 to 14 feet, should be sufficient. At least a 10-foot wide front setback should be provided between all 4- plexes and the back of the adjacent sidewalk. Pine Avenue Street Buffer: A 20-foot wide street buffer is required along Pine Avenue, a collector street (UDC 11-2A-6). There is existing parking for the church near Pine Avenue that encroaches into the required buffer area. Staff realizes that the church lot is not developing at this time, but it is part of the subject subdivision and subject to compliance with the UDC. Therefore, staff recommends that prior to occupancy of the first 4-plex, the applicant agrees to submit and gain approval for alternative landscaping compliance adjacent to Pine Avenue. Further, when any new construction occurs on Lot 1, Block 1 (church lot) in the future, a landscape street buffer along Pine Avenue will be constructed in accordance with the UDe. NOTE: Staff has made this a provision of the Development Agreement and not a condition of the plat or CUP. Open Space: Open space is defmed as an area substantially open to the sky that may be on the same property with a structure. The areas may include, along with the natural environment features, parks, playgrounds, trees, water areas, swimming pools, tennis courts, community centers or other recreational facilities. The term shall not include streets, parking areas, or structures of habitation (UDC l1-1A). UDC 11-4- 3.27C requires a minimum area of outdoor common open space shall be provided as follows: a) 150 square feet for each unit containing 500 or less square feet of living Rushmore Subdivision RZ-06-004/PP -06-021/CUP -06-0] 4 PAGE 13 CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT FOR THE HEARING DATE OF JULY 5, 2006 area; b) 250 square feet for each unit containing more than 500 square feet and up to 1,200 square feet of living area; and c) 350 square feet for each unit containing more than 1,200 square feet of living area. Common open space areas shall not be adjacent to collector or arterial streets unless separated from the street by a constructed barrier at least 4 feet in height. The applicant states that 0.14 acres (6,098 square feet) of the site is being set aside for common open space. Based on the square footage ofthe proposed 4-plexes, each unit contains 4,160 square feet, 8,400 square feet of common open space should be provided. Maintenance of all common areas shall be the responsibility of the Rushmore Subdivision Home Owners' Association(s). The applicant should explain where and how the common open space requirements mentioned above will be met. Fencinl2:: The applicant has not proposed any fencing for this the development. Staff recommends that the applicant testify at the public hearinl2: if perimeter fencinl2: will be installed and what tvoe. A detailed fencing plan should be submitted upon application of the final plat. If permanent fencing is not provided before issuance of a building permit, temporary construction fencing to contain debris must be installed around the perimeter. Perimeter, common open space, and micro-path fencing shall be designed according to UDC 11-3A-7. Per UDC 11-3A-6B3 requires open vision fencing along waterways where it is in the best interest of public safety. Staff recommends that the Council require open-vision fencing on both sides ofthe Ninemile Creek. Pressure Irril2:ation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation systems be supplied by a year-round source of water. 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 used, the developer will be responsible for the payment of assessments for the common areas prior to signature on the fmal plat by the City Engineer. An underground, pressurized irrigation system should be installed to all landscape areas per the approved specifications and in accordance with UDC 11-3A- 15 and MCC 9-1-28. Site Lavout: As mentioned above, the submitted plat does propose 48 parking stall on this site. However, staff believes that there is one problem with the way the development is currently laid out. Lot 5, Block 2, which is located in the southwest corner of the development has no parking in front of the building. Staff is concerned about the remoteness of the parking area in the northeast corner in relation to the units. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council determine if there are too many units on this site. Staff Recommendation: Based on the facts provided in this report, staff recommends approval of File Numbers RZ-06-004, PP-06-021 and CUP-06-014 with the conditions listed in Exhibit B of the Staff Report. On Mav 18. 2006 the Meridian Planninl! & Zoninl2: Commission voted to recommend approval of the subiect apolications to the City Council. with the Development Al!feement orovisions listed in Section 10 and the Conditions listed in Exhibit B of the Staff Report. 11.
