Applicant posted notice on site by: October 27, 2010 (Commission); November 22, 2010 (City Council 6. LAND USE A. Existing Land Use(s): The subject property is currently vacant agricultural land. B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: The surrounding area is currently agricultural in nature except along the eastern portion of site there is a mix of single family residential, office and commercial uses and planned residential, office and commercial property, zoned R-2, R-4, R-8, R-15, L-O, C-C, C-N, L-O and RUT in Ada County. C. History of Previous Actions: In 2005, the subject property received annexation (AZ-OS-040), preliminarily plat (PP-OS-039 and PP-OS-040), and conditional use permit approvals (CUP-OS- 041) for a mixed use planned development for commercial, office and single family residential. As part of the annexation approval, the site was subject to a DA (instrument # 106034786). These approvals have now expired except for the recorded development agreement. In 2008, a portion of the original Volterra North plat (111 acres) was rezoned and removed from the original boundary (through a DA modification). This portion has an approved concept plan that depicts a large business park development. A new development agreement (instrument # 110051282) was required with the approval of the rezone. That project is known as Volterra Mixed Use. D. Utilities: 1. Public Works: a. Location of water: N Black Cat Road, W McMillan Road and N Ten Mile Road. b. Location of sewer: N Black Cat Road, c. Issues or concerns: none E. Physical Features: 1. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: Several small ditches transverse the Volterra North Subdivision and are planned for tiling with the subject plat application. The Volterra South plat is affected by the White Drain and the Lemp Canal. The applicant is requesting a Council waiver to leave these two facilities open due to the size of the facilities. 2. Hazards: Staff is not aware of any hazards that exist on this property. Flood Plain: This property does not lie within the floodplain. F. Summary of Proposed Streets and/or Access: The applicant is proposing to construct numerous public streets and several stub streets as part of this project (see section 9 for further analysis). 7. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS The Volterra North plat is all designated "Medium Density Residential" on the future land use map. The Volterra South plat includes both the "Medium Density Residential" and "Mixed-Use Community" on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The medium density residential areas are anticipated to contain between three and eight dwellings per acre (see Page 99 of the Comprehensive Plan.). The proposed preliminary plats include 567 single- Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 3 - EXHIBIT A family lots on approximately 179 acres for a total gross density of 3.17 dwelling units/acre for both plats. The Volterra North plat consists of 301 residential lots on 120.6 acres. The gross density for this plat is 2.5 dwelling units to the acre. The Volterra South plat consists of 194 residential lots on 58 acres. The gross density for this plat is 3.34 dwelling units to the acre. Staff is of the opinion that the application is compliant with the recommended density for this area due to the mix of uses planned for the area. Given the size of the planned mixed use development located east of the Volterra North plat, staff anticipates the additional need for housing in the area to provide additional housing for this area of Meridian. As mentioned earlier, a portion of the Volterra South Plat is designated MU-C. The purpose of this land use designation is to allocate areas where community-serving uses and dwellings are integrated into the urban fabric. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses, including residential, and to avoid mainly single-use and strip commercial type buildings. Non-residential buildings in these areas are designed to be larger than in Mixed Use-Neighborhood areas, but not as large as in Mixed Use - Regional areas. Future uses in the MU-C land use designation may include all MU-N categories, community grocery and clothing stores, garden centers, hardware stores, restaurants, banks, drive-thru facilities, auto service station, and retail shops, and other appropriate community-serving uses. Goods and services in areas tend where access is mainly by car but also provides access by pedestrians and cyclists as well as providing employment opportunities for those living in and around the neighborhood. Although the residential portion falls under a different land use designation, staff believes the plat itself will contribute to a mix of uses as intended under this land use designation. 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): • Chapter VII, Goal III, Objective A, Action 1 -Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. Currently the City is in negotiations to establish this area as part of the Area of City Impact. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands in the following manner: • Sanitary sewer service will be extended to the project at the developer's expense. • Water service will be extended to the project at the developer's expense. • The lands are under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, This service will not change. • The lands are serviced by 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) and The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD). 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. Municipal, fee-supported, services are 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 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. Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 4 - EXHIBIT A This publication encourages jurisdictions to establish bikeway and walkway facilities in new construction projects, in a manner that is safe, accessible and convenient. The applicant is proposing several multi-use pathways to to facilitate multi-modal needs. Staff believes that the subject application complies 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 applicant's proposed street lay-outs are consistent with the previous preliminary plats. The Volterra North plat depicts six (6) stub streets to provide future connectivity. The Volterra South plat depicts two (2) stub streets and a pedestrian connection to the Drawbridge Subdivision. In addition, an extensive street network is planned to provide access to the adjacent arterial streets and the mixed use and commercial developments planned in the area. Staff is supportive of the proposed stub streets and internal street network proposed with the proposed subdivisions. 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 applicant is proposing several multi-use pathways, micro path lots and S foot wide sidewalks to service the proposed subdivisions and surrounding properties. In Volterra North, a 10 foot wide multi-use pathway is planned along the north side of the residential collector street. In Volterra South, a 10 foot multi-use pathway is planned along the south side of McMillan Road and turns southward and follows the White Drain and connects to Ten Mile Road. In addition, several pedestrian connections are planned to link the residential blocks, planned parks and surrounding planned commercial and residential developments. Staff is of the opinion, the proposed sidewalks and pathways will enhance pedestrian connectivity in this area. Chapter VII, Goal V, Objective B, Action 1 -Require common area for all subdivisions. The applicant has provided an open space exhibit to depict the overall open space calculations proposed with the plats. The plan indicates that the total amount of open space provided is 30.33 acres (16.9%) for both plats. However, each plat is required to comply with the10 percent open space requirement. ~ Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective C, Action 1 -Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels. The previous Volterra South plat contemplated a pedestrian connection to the Drawbridge Subdivision to the south. In keeping with the spirit of the previous approvals, the applicant has proposed a pedestrian connection to the aforementioned subdivision. In addition, the applicant is proposing a greenbelt along the west and south boundary of the planned commercial and office lots. Staff believes this amenity will provide a nice transition between the residential homes and the future commercial uses. In the Volterra North plat, the applicant is proposing the residential lots will be physically separated from the planned mixed use development by a 10.2 acre park. Staff believes the applicant has done a nice job buffering the residential uses from the mix of uses planned for the area. • "Restrict curb cuts and access points on ...arterial streets." (Chapter VII, Goal N, Obj. D, #5, page 107) The proposed Volterra South plat depicts two driveways to serve the C-G portion of the plat. One access point is along McMillan Road and the other aligns with the public street across Ten Mile Road approved with the Bridetower development. Given that this access points were reviewed Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 5 - EXHIBIT A during the previous plat and the driveways align with other driveways, staff is supportive of the proposed curb cuts. Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action 5: Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridor (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.). The applicant is proposing to construct buffers along all of the adjacent arterial and collector streets in both plats. By ordinance, a minimum 25 foot wide landscape buffer is required adjacent to arterial streets and a 20 foot wide buffer is required adjacent to collector streets. Chapter VI, Goal II: Facilitate the movement of people and products to and from the Meridian Impact Area. Staff finds that the proposed street layout will facilitate the movement of people and products in this area. After considering all of these factors staff believes that the proposed development is generally consistent with comprehensive plan. 8. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE The Volterra North Plat is all zoned R-4; the Volterra South plat is requesting an R-8 zone for the residential portion and the commercial lots remain zoned C-G and L-O. a. Schedule of Uses: Unified Development Code (UDC) 11-2A-21ists single-family detached homes as permitted uses in the R-4, and proposed R-8 zoning districts. Unified Development Code (UDC) Table 11-2B-2 lists the principal permitted, accessory, conditional, and prohibited uses in the existing C-G and L-O zoning districts. b. Purpose Statement of Zone: R-4 and R-8: The purpose of the residential districts is to provide for a range of housing opportunities consistent with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Connection to the City of Meridian water and sewer systems is a requirement for all residential districts. Residential districts are distinguished by the allowable density of dwelling units per acre and corresponding housing types that can be accommodated within the density range. C-G and L-O (Volterra South only): The subject site is designated "Commercial" on the City's zoning map. The purpose of the commercial districts is to provide for the retail and service needs of the community in accord with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Four districts are designated which differ in the size and scale of commercial structures accommodated in the district, the scale and mix of allowed commercial uses, and the location of the district proximity to streets and highways. c. General Standards: All of the proposed lots must comply with the standard street frontage and lot size requirements of the R-4 and R-8 zones established in the UDC. No dimensional modifications are being requested for the proposed development. Development of the site shall comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC 11-2B-3 for the C-G and L-O zoning districts. d. Landscaping: 1. Width of street buffer(s): Per UDC 11-2A-5, UDC 11-2A-6 and UDC 11-2B-3, a 25-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to McMillan Road and Ten Mile Road, designated arterial streets. The street buffers shall be constructed in accord with the standards listed in Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 6 - EXHIBIT A UDC 11-3B-7C. A 20-foot wide street buffer is required along W. Gondola Drive, N. Sangro Drive, E. Parma Drive, N. San Vito Way and N. San Vito Avenue; designated collector streets. 2. Percentage of site as open space: Per UDC 11-3G-3, both plats are required to provide 10 percent open space and one amenity for every 20 acres of development area. 3. For the commercial portion of the development, the parking lot landscaping and the land use buffers adjacent to the residential uses are subject to the standards outlined in UDC 11- 3B-8 and UDC 11-3B-9. 4. The planned 10-foot wide multi-use pathways and micropaths are required to comply with the design standards in accord with UDC 11-3A-8 and UDC 11-3B-12. 5. The parkways planned along the proposed collector streets are required to comply with the design standards outlined in UDC 11-3A-17. 9. ANALYSIS Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation: RZ Application (the Rezone pertains to the Volterra South Plat only): The request is to rezone 58.33 acres of land from the R-4 zone to the R-8 zone for the residential portion of the Volterra South plat. In 2005, the site was approved as a mixed use development through the planned development (CUP) process. With the previous approvals, the applicant was granted reduced lot sizes and street frontages within the R-4 zone. Since those approvals have expired and are no longer valid, the lots approved under the PD would not conform to the current R-4 dimensional standards outlined in the UDC. Thus, the applicant has requested the rezone to the R- 8zone in order to keep the plat lay-out generally consistent with the previous approval in 2005. The properties (Volterra North and Volterra South) are subject to a development agreement recorded as instrument #106034786. in 2008, a portion of the site was removed from the original DA and was subject to a new DA. The project is known as Volterra Mixed-Use (see Exhibit A.2). Since these are new plats and other properties were removed from the recorded DA, staff believes the recorded DA should be amended to incorporate new provisions subject to the requirements and merits of this project. This would include items such as the timing for subdivision amenities, phasing, building elevations and incorporating the new project boundaries. The applicant should submit a DA modification prior to the City Council hearing so staff can process the application and schedule the DA modification for the same hearing as the proposed project. Phasing Plan: Generally, the applicant anticipates the phasing plan to begin with the residential lots near Black Cat Road and then continue to the east and south across McMillan Road, then south and east to the McMillan Road and Ten Mile Road intersection. Overall, sixteen (16) phases are contemplated based on the location of city services. During the previous review, the Black Cat sewer trunk was not installed and city services were not readily available. Those improvements have now been completed. The location of these facilities dictates the phasing plan. Thus, Staff is supportive of the Phasing Plan. The applicant has communicated to staff for phasing purposes they would like the plats to be viewed as one averall project. Staff is supportive of the request; however the DA needs to be modified to reflect this. Building Elevations: Elevations were not submitted with the subject applications. However, staff anticipates the recorded DA being amended; the applicant should provide sample elevations with the DA modification application. Further, proposed elevations should be consistent with Section E. Residential Guidelines contained in the Meridian Design Manual. Similar building materials Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 7 - EXHIBIT A and mix of materials should be incorporated into all sides of the future homes. Particular attention should be made to those side and rear facades that face a public street and common open space. For the commercial and office lots in the Volterra South portion of the application, the recorded DA requires detailed CUP approval for all development. Staff believes future development would be better facilitated based on the requirements in the UDC and the Meridian Design Manual. Staff anticipates the requirement for CUP for the commercial development being removed from the recorded development agreement and subject to the certificate of zoning compliance (CZC) and administrative design review (DES) approvals in the future. Open Space/Amenities: UDC 11-3G-2 requires a minimum of ten percent open space for all residential developments exceeding five acres. The UDC also requires one additional site amenity for each additiona120 acres of development area. Using this standard, the applicant is required to provide a total of nine (9) amenities for a development of this size (179 acres) which includes the land area of both plats. The applicant has submitted open space calculations (see exhibit A.4). The applicant is providing 30.33 acres of common open space with this development (both plats) which equals approximately 17% of the total development area. The largest contributors to the open space requirements is the 10.2 acre park planned for the Volterra North plat and 2.9 acre park planned for the Volterra South plat. Per the UDC, a minimum of six (6) amenities are required for the Volterra North plat and three (3) amenities are required the Volterra South plat. Qualifying amenities are outlined in UDC 11- 3G-3C. Based on the information provided below, staff finds the plat complies with the 10 percent open space and amenities outlined in the UDC. Amenities provided for the Volterra North plat include the following: 1) Tot Lot 2) Pool 3) Club House 4) 5% additional open space 5) Extension of the Meridian Pathway system 6) Public Art Amenities provided for the Volterra South plat include the following: 1) Tot lot 2) 5% additional open space 3) Extension of the Meridian Pathway system Fencing: The applicant is not showing any fencing on any of the submitted plans. However, in the applicant's narrative, it has been requested a certain fence be allowed along the interior common lots. The requested fencing is a 4-foot tall fence with 2-feet of lattice adjacent to all of the interior common lots. The fencing standards in the UDC prohibit this type of fence along interior lots. All fencing proposed with the Volterra North and the Volterra South plats should be installed in accord with UDC 11-3A-7. PP Application (Volterra North, PP-10-004) The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval of 301 residential lots, 1 school lot and 38 common lots for a total of 340 lots on 120.6 acres of land. The previous plat consisted of 540 buildable lots and Slcommon lots. The decrease in 239 lots has occurred because the property Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 8 - EXHIBIT A to the east was removed from the previous plat and was approved for a large mixed-use development. In addition, a school lot was contemplated but not proposed at the time. 'This time the applicant has indicated that there is an agreement with the School District for the purchase of the lot. Dimensional Standards: The property proposed to be platted is zoned R-4, respectively. All of the proposed lots must comply with the dimensional standards established in the UDC. After reviewing the submitted application it appears that several lots do not meet the frontage requirements of the UDC. The two lots staff is referencing are Lots 34 and 35, Block 4. Per UDC- 11-2A-3B, aminimum of 30 feet of street frontage is required for properties with frontages on a ninety degree angle. Because these lots are not situated on a ninety degree angle, these lots should meet the 60-foot frontage requirement of the UDC. The plat should be revised to accommodate the 60 foot frontage requirement in accord with UDC 11-2A-5. Street Network: The applicant is proposing a fairly extensive street network with the submitted plat. A collector network is proposed that connects to Black Cat Road at the western boundary and McMillan Road at the southern boundary. Each residential block provides local street connection to the proposed collector system. In addition, seven (7) stub streets are proposed to adjacent properties for future connectivity (2 north, 3 east, 1 south and 1 west). Four of the stub streets were evaluated during the previous plat review and staff was supportive of the connectivity at that time. The two other stub streets provide future connectivity to the planned mixed use development to the east. During the evaluation of the new plat, staff believes the proposed stub streets still make sense and align with other residential subdivisions planned in the area. Therefore, staff is supportive of the proposed street network planned for the Volterra North Subdivision. However, a portion of the collector system (N. San Vito Way) appears to be constructed on property outside of the plat boundary. Because the property is under single ownership, Staff is recommending the applicant process a property boundary adjustment to facilitate the construction of this segment of the roadway. This process should be initiated prior to submitting a final plat. Detached Sidewalks: The applicant is proposing to construct 5-foot wide attached sidewalks on the internaUlocal streets. Five foot wide detached sidewalks are planned along the collector and arterial streets, except where amulti-use pathway is planned. The sidewalks are detached from the curb with a 10-foot wide landscape strip. The proposed landscape strips do not include trees, only grass. The applicant is proposing to plant trees on the back side of the sidewalks, but staff believes that the trees should be planted between the curb and the sidewalk to provide the pedestrians with shade and to make the streetscape more attractive. Said planters should comply with the standards set forth in UDC 11-3A-17E. Multi-use Pathway: Per the Master Pathways Plan, the applicant is proposing to construct a 10- foot wide multi-use pathway that is depicted on Pathway Map, along the north side of W. Gondola Drive. The pathway extends from Black Cat Road and terminates at the W. Gondola Drive and N. San Vito Way intersection. Staff encourages the applicant to route the proposed pathway through the proposed 10.2 acre park. Staff believes this will provide connectivity between the proposed pathway and the planned pathway approved with the Volterra Mixed Use project to the east. If this change is made, staff finds the pathway location in compliance with the Master Pathways Plan. Micropaths: The applicant is proposing to construct numerous micropaths with this plat to break-up the block lengths that exceed the maximum length of 750 feet and to provide pedestrian connections to planned pathways and planned open space. The UDC allows longer blocks lengths where access is limited and a pedestrian connectivity is provided in lieu of a public street. Since the UDC requires limiting access to collector roadways and the spine road (W. Gondola Drive) is Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 9 - EXHIBIT A designated a collector, staff believes providing pedestrian connection is a better alternative than vehicular connectivity. Thus, Staff is generally supportive of the pedestrian connections between the different neighborhood "pods". All micropaths shall be constructed in accord with UDC 11- 3A-8 and UDC 11-3B-12. Landscaping Requirements Arterials: UDC 11-2A-5 requires a 25-foot wide street buffer along McMillan Road and Black Cat Road. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant complies with the aforementioned buffer widths along theses roadways. Said buffers should be constructed in accord with UDC 11- 3B-7C. The UDC requires all residential street buffers to be in common lots maintained by the homeowners association. The submitted plats depicts the buffers as common lots as required. Also, there is a 20-foot Beach Lateral easement parallel to McMillan Road The submitted landscape plan shows trees outside of this easement, since the irrigation district does not allow trees in the easement. Collector Streets: UDC 11-2A-5 requires a 20-foot wide street buffer along W. Gondola Drive and N. San Vito Way. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is proposing buffers that exceed the required 20-foot width. Said buffers shall be constructed as proposed in accord with the standards outlined in UDC11-3A-7C. PP Application (Volterra South, PP-10-005) The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval of 194 residential lots, 38 common lots, 7 commercial lots and 3 office lots for a total of 242 lots on 80.4 acres of land. The previous plat consisted of 188 residential lots, 2lcommon lots, 13 commercial lots and 4 office lots. This is an increase of 6 residential lots and a decrease of 6 commercial lots and 1 office lot from the previous plat approved in 2005. Dimensional Standards: The residential portion of the property is proposed to be platted and rezoned to R-8. All of the proposed lots must comply with the dimensional standards established in accord with UDC 11-2A-5 and UDC 11-2B-3. After reviewing the submitted application it appears that all of the proposed residential lots meet the frontage requirements of the UDC. Street Network: The applicant is proposing to extend the street network with the submitted plat. A smaller scaled collector network provides one connection to McMillan Road for the residential portion of the plat that aligns with San Vito Way in the Volterra North plat. In addition, a second collector street provides connection to McMillan Road and Ten Mile Road. This roadway helps facilitate local street access to several residential blocks and provides two (2) access points for the future commercial and office development. Further, two (2) stub streets and one pedestrian connection are provided to adjacent properties for future connectivity (1 south and 1 west). These stub streets were evaluated during the previous plat review and staff was supportive of the connectivity at that time. During the evaluation of the new plat, staff believes the proposed stub streets and pedestrian connection to the Drawbridge Subdivision to the south still make sense. Therefore, staff is supportive of the proposed street network planned for the Volterra South Subdivision. The applicant is also proposing two access points to the adjacent arterial streets. One provides access. to McMillan Road and other to Ten Mile Road. Both access points align with access points across the arterials. UDC 11-3A-3 requires local street access if it is provided. In this case, the site is surrounded by both collector and arterial streets. Therefore, staff is supportive of the access points however they should be restricted to right-in/right-out access points only. Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 10 - EXHIBIT A Cross-access: There are some commercial lots located on the southwest corner of McMillan Road and Ten Mile Road that do not have frontage on a public street. Because several of the proposed lots do not have frontage on a public street, the applicant should provide a cross parking/cross access agreement(s) for all of the lots within the office and commercial portions of the subdivision to use the driveways and parking aisles. Maintenance of the drive aisles and parking areas should be provided for in a note on the face of the final plat. Sidewalks: UDC 11-3A-17 requires 5-foot detached sidewalks along all collector and arterial streets. Both the submitted landscape plan and the Volterra South plat depict 5-foot-foot wide attached sidewalks along the N. San Vito Way and the west and south side of N. Sangor Way and E. Parma Drive. At the time of final platting, the applicant shall depict 5-foot detached sidewalks along the aforementioned roadways in accord with UDC 11-3A-17. Multi-use Pathway: Per the Master Pathways Plan, the applicant is proposing to construct a 10- foot wide multi-use pathway that is depicted on Pathway Map, along the south side of W.McMillan Road and runs to the east side of the McMillan Road and N. Sangro Way intersection. From there the pathway transverses southward within an 85-foot greenbelt and turns east along the southern boundary of the office lots and connects to Ten Mile Road. The Parks Director has reviewed the submitted plan and finds the proposed pathway comports with the Master Pathways Plan, Thus, staff is supportive of the of the location of the pathway as proposed. Because this is a significant development feature, staff encourages the applicant coordinate with the Settlers Irrigation District to verify their requirements for the proposed green belt (see exhibit A.3). Micropaths: The applicant is proposing to construct numerous micropaths with this plat to help break-up the block lengths that exceed the maximum 750 feet and provide pedestrian connections to planned pathways and planned open space. In lieu of vehicular connectivity, the applicant has provided several micropath lots. Staff is still concerned with the long block length proposed between Block 30 and Block 31. The previous plat depicted a wide open space lot for the relocated White Drain and paralleled the buildable lots. The new plat has changed and the White Drain is now proposed to be relocated to the commercial portion of the development. Staff is recommending the pedestrian connections for this area be enlarged and consolidated to 1) provide an open space corridor to the 2.9 acre park and 2) meet the requirements as requested by the Fire Department regarding the street separation between proposed blocks. The Fire Department has communicated to staff they would like to see a minimum of a 10-wide paved surface with five feet of compacted gravel on both sides. Staff recommends the applicant include a minimum 40-foot wide open space centrally located between the blocks and construct the driving surface as described above. Said landscape areas should be planted in accord with UDC 11-3B-12. Landscaping Requirements Arterials: UDC 11-2A-5 and UDC 11-2B-3 require a 25-foot wide street buffer along McMillan Road and Ten Mile Road. The submitted landscape plan complies with the aforementioned buffer widths along theses roadways. In fact the landscape buffers along McMillan are larger than required due to the 50-foot Lemp Canal easement. Said buffers should be constructed in accord with UDC 11-3B-7C. The UDC requires all residential street buffers to be in a common lot maintained by the homeowners association. For the commercial and office development the applicant shall graphically depict the width of the buffer on the face of the plat. The submitted plats depicts the Volterra Subdivisions (North and South) - 11 - EXHIBIT A buffers as common lots as required. Also, there is a 50-foot Lemp Canal easement parallel to McMillan Road. The submitted landscape plan shows trees outside of this easement. Collector Streets: UDC 11-2A-5 and UDC 11-2B-3requires a 20-foot wide street buffer along N. San Vito Avenue, N. Sangro Way and E. Parma Drive. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is proposing buffers that are equal to or exceed the required 20-foot width. Said buffers shall be constructed as proposed in accord with the standards outlined in UDC 11-3A-7C. Due to the relocation of the White Drain along the east side of N. Sangro Way. The applicant has provided an 85-foot wide greenbelt along a portion of this roadway. Land Use Buffers: UDC 11-3B-9 requires landscape buffers between different land uses. Per UDC 11-2b-3, a 20-foot wide landscape buffer is required between single-family homes and L-O zoned property. The submitted plat depicts an 85-foot landscape easement along the west and south boundary of the L-O lots. This greenbelt should serve as adequate buffering for the future residential to the east and the existing Drawbridge Subdivision to the south. Further, the applicant has provided the necessary pedestrian connection to the Drawbridge Subdivision as required with the previous approvals. It is important to note that is open space does not count towards the 10 open space requirements for the residential portion of the plat. This is a dimensional standard based on office uses next to residential uses. Ditches, Laterals, and Canals: The applicant is proposing to relocate and leave open the White Drain, between Ten Mile Road and McMillan Road, as well as the Lemp Canal, which runs along the south side of McMillan Road. During the previous review, Staff talked with Nathan Draper at Settlers Irrigation District and it was preferable to them that the applicant leaves the White Drain open so that groundwater can get to the facility. Also, the City Council has regularly granted waivers of the requirement to the the Lemp Canal. The Lemp Canal is a major facility, and it would at least take a 48-inch pipe to contain it. For the reasons listed above, staff recommends the White Drain and the Lemp Canal remain open and all other irrigation ditches, laterals and canals be tiled per UDC 11-3A-6. The applicant should contact Settler's Irrigation District and coordinate all proposed improvements to ensure the site can development as proposed by the applicant. In summary staff is supportive of the proposed plats. After reviewing the previous approvals, staff believes the subject plats are consistent with the comprehensive plan and as conditioned with the UDC. Further, the proposed plats enhance pedestrian and vehicular connectivity within the proposed subdivisions and the area and have provided an abundance of open space. Given the size of the planned mixed use development in the area, staff anticipates the additional need for housing in the area to help service this area of Meridian. 10. EXHIBITS A. Drawings 1.
