The Ada County Highway District (ACRD) staff has received the above referenced application requesting conditional use approval to construct a 1,743-square foot fast food restaurant with a drive-thru. The 0.97-acre site is located on the northeast corner of Magic View Drive and Allen Street. This development is estimated to generate 866 additional vehicle trips per day (0 existing) based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual. B. The application and site plan stamped and received by the City of Meridian on January 2, 2002, and submitted to the District on January 8, 2002, has been reviewed by the ACRD Planning and Development staff and conforms to applicable District standards/policy, or can be made to conform with the change(s) to the plan described in the requirements stated below. C. This is a staff level approval and will not be heard by the ACRD Commission unless the site plan is changed in such a manner as to not conform to District standards/policy or an appeal of the Planning and Development staff decision is submitted as described within the Standard Requirements outlined below. D. On January 14, 2002, the District Planning and Development staff inspected this site and evaluated the transportation system in the vicinity. On January 18, 2002, the staff met as the District's Technical Review Committee and reviewed the impacts of this proposed development on the District's transportation system. The results of that analysis constitute the following Facts and Findings and recommended Site Specific Requirements. S:~DSTECH~CU~2001 CUPUVICUP01-045.sla.doc Page 1 • • E. For the purposes of estimating daily trip generation and assessing impact fees for this project, the proposed use of this development has been classified as Fast food restaurant with drive thru. (Per the ITE Manual) The impact fee rate from the fee tables for this use is $4,715 per thousand square feet of gross building area, based on the impact fee ordinance in effect at this time. Note: This rate is provided for informational purposes only and shall not be construed as an impact fee rate certification. The impact fee will be assessed at the time of plans acceptance by District staff, and shall be based on the fee tables and provisions of the District's Impact Fee Ordinance in effect at that time. F. The entire parcel is approximately 2.85-acres. The applicant is proposing to utilize a portion of the site (approximately 0.97-acres). The fast food restaurant will be located on the southeast end of the lot. The remainder of the lot will be left vacant until such time as an application is submitted. The applicant is proposing to locate two access points on Magic View Drive. There is one existing driveway on Allen Street and one on St. Lukes Street, however this current application does not reflect them on their site plan. G. Development patterns in the surrounding area are commercial. Based on development patterns in this area and the resulting traffic generation, staff anticipates that the transportation system will be adequate to accommodate additional traffic generated by this proposed development at accepted levels of service with out modification to Magic View Drive and Allen Street. The additional traffic generated by this development will have minimal detrimental impact on the transportation system. H. The Commission adopted an extraordinary fee based on trip generation rates.- The Commission determined that the Extraordinary Impact Fee would be $43.19 per trip. This parcel includes 0.97- acres, resulting in a trip generation rate of approximately 866-trips per day, for a fast food restaurant with a drive thru. Therefore, this property should pay an overlay fee to the District in the amount of approximately $37,402.54. Staff recommends that the Commission require the payment of that amount into a fund for the reimbursement of the cost to construct and dedicate right-of--way for a new road from the intersection of Eagle Road and St. Luke's driveway to the intersection of Magic View Drive and Allen Drive as the proportionate share of this property on a per trip basis. Special Recommendations to the City of Meridian: 1. The applicant should provide the District with a copy of a recorded access easement among the parcels for use of the driveway for access to the public street prior to approval. The following requirements are provided as conditions for approval: Site Specific Requirements: 1. Dedicate 29-feet of right-of--way from the centerline of Magic View Drive abutting the parcel by means of recordation of a final subdivision plat or execution of a warranty deed prior to issuance of a building permit (or other required permits), whichever occurs first. Allow up to 30 business S:~DSTECH~CU~2001 CUP~NICUP01-045.sla.doc Page 2 days to process the right-of--way dedication after receipt of all requested material. The owner will not be compensated for this additional right-of--way because Magic View Drive is a locaUlocal commercial street and is to be brought to adopted standards by the developers of abutting properties. 2. Applicant is proposing two driveways on Magic View Drive; • Proposed driveway # 1 is located approximately 110-feet from the intersection of Allen Street and Magic View Drive. This location meets District policy and is approved with this application. Pave the driveway to its full-required width of 25 to 30-feet and to a point 30- feetbeyond the edge of pavement of Magic View Drive. • Proposed driveway # 2 is located approximately 250-feet from the intersection of Allen Street and Magic View Drive. This location meets District policy and is approved with this application.. Pave the driveway to its full-required width of 25 to 30-feet and to a point 30- feetbeyond the edge of pavement of Allen Street. 3. Construct curb, gutter, 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk, and match paving on Magic View Drive abutting .the parcel. Improvements shall be constructed to one-half of a 40-foot street section. 4. Replace any damaged curb, gutter, and/or sidewalk on Allen Street to match existing improvements. Segments to be replaced shall be determined by ACRD Construction Services staff. Contact Construction Services at 387-6280 (with file number) for details. 5. Utility street cuts in pavement less than five years old are not allowed unless approved in writing by the District. Contact ACHD's Utility Coordinator at 387-2516 or 378-6258 (with file number) for details. 6. Meet District drainage requirements per section 8000 of the ACfID Development Policy Manual. Contact District staff at 387-6170 for details. 7. If utility relocation. is necessary to construct improvements required with this development, then all utility relocation costs associated with improving street frontages abutting the site should be borne by the developer. 8. Any existing irrigation facilities should be relocated outside of the right-of--way.
