At this time I'd like to call to order the regularly scheduled meeting of the Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission on this day of December 15th, 2011. Machelle, can we begin with roll call. Item 2: Adoption of the Agenda Freeman: Thank you. The first item on the agenda is the adoption of the agenda. There are no modifications to it that I'm aware of, so could I get a motion to adopt the agenda? O'Brien: So moved. Marshall: Second. Freeman: It's been motioned and seconded to adopt the agenda. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Item 3: Consent Agenda A. Approve Minutes of November 17, 2011 Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting. Freeman: The next item on the agenda is the Consent Agenda. The only item on the Consent Agenda this evening is the approval of the minutes of the November 17th, Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 2 of 24 2011, Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. Could I get a motion to approve the Consent Agenda. Marshall: So moved. O'Brien: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to approve the Consent Agenda. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: Okay. Before I begin by opening our first public hearing on the first item this evening I just wanted to explain the protocol a little bit for all those who are here. Maybe there are some of those in the audience who want to offer testimony this evening. What we will do is we will open each item and, then, we will hear immediately from staff. They will give us a presentation on how the application compares with the Comprehensive Plan and the Uniform Development Code and, then, after staffs presentation the applicant will be given up to 15 minutes to come forward and present their application. After that time we will take public testimony. Anybody wanting to testify you will be given up three minutes to come to the podium and speak, unless you're speaking for a larger group. If you're doing that let me know that when you come up here, we will take a show of hands and we will give you up to ten minutes. There is a sign-up sheet in the back for each item, so if you do want to offer testimony this evening it would be helpful if you signed up on that sheet. However, once I run through the sheet I will ask if there is anyone else in the audience that wishes to testify before we close down that section. And, then, the applicant will be given a chance to come back up and defend their application for ten minutes if they would like to. Then we will close the public hearing and the Commission will deliberate and discuss and, then, hopefully, we will be able to come up with a recommendation on each item for this evening for City Council and, then, we will move on to the next item. Item 4: Action Items A. Public Hearing: RZ 11-005 Genesis Center by Sharon Sharp Located at 1535 W. Franklin Road Request: Rezone of 1.59 Acres of Land from the CoN Zoning District to the C-C Zoning District Freeman: So, with that, the first item on the agenda is the public hearing for RZ 11-005, the Genesis Center, and I will begin with the staff report. Wafters: Thank you, Chairman Freeman, Members of the Commission. The first application before you is a rezone request of 1.59 acres of land from the C-N, Neighborhood Business, to the C-C, Community Business zoning district. The site is located at 1535 West Franklin Road on the southeast corner of Franklin and Linder. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 3 of 24 Adjacent land use and zoning -- the property to the north is vacant commercial property, zoned C-C. To the south is tennis courts owned by Crestwood Estates Subdivision, zoned C-N, and an ACRD drainage pond also zoned C-N. To the east is an outdoor RV storage yard, owned by Crestwood Estates Subdivision, zoned C-N, and to the west across Linder is a fuel station, convenience store, car wash, bar and grill, and other miscellaneous uses also zoned C-C. A summary of the applicant's request -- there is currently a 9,690 square foot multi-tenant building on this site that will continue to be used for commercial purposes. No new development is proposed at this time. The applicant requests a rezone to C-C, a slightly more intense zoning district, in order to expand the uses allowed on the property, as well as extend the hours of operation for businesses within the complex. Staff has compared the uses allowed in the C-N zoning district to those allowed in the proposed C-C district and generally does not find any of the uses that would be feasible to go into the existing building to be objectionable. Similar zoning and allowable range of uses presently exists directly to the west across Linder Road. Additionally, there are no residential uses or zoning that abut this site. The Comprehensive Plan future land use map designation for this site is commercial and the applicant's proposal is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan and the Unified Development Code. Written testimony has been received from Sharon Knox, the applicant, in response to the staff report in agreement. Staff is recommending approval of the proposed rezone with no development agreement. Staff will stand for any questions the Commission may have. Freeman: Thank you, Sonya. Any questions of staff? O'Brien: I have none. Freeman: Okay. Would the applicant like to come forward? And, please, state your name and address for the record when you reach the podium. Thank you. Knox: Sharon Sharp Knox. And the address 1535 West Franklin Avenue in Meridian. And I'm in agreement with the proposed application and plan that the Zoning Commission has recommended. Freeman: Okay. Knox: Do you have any questions? Freeman: Are there any questions of the applicant? Commissioner O'Brien? O'Brien: Mr. Chair. Staff. What type of businesses would be allowed in? And maybe of staff also a question. If the hours are extended past the -- I think the 10:00 p.m. is the current -- Knox: I currently have a new tenant, which is Idaho Fitness Factory, and they are a neighborhood gym and they are offering a 24 hour, around the clock, access to the building. So, currently under C-N it's zoned from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and they just Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 4 of 24 want to be able to offer their clientele a longer usage of hours. So, that's really who I would be putting in there. O'Brien: Thank you. I was -- Knox: No bar and grill -- O'Brien: Yeah. I was thinking of deliveries and things like that. I -- Knox: No. O'Brien: Okay. Thanks very much. That's all I have. Freeman: Okay. Any other questions? Rohm: I have none. Freeman: Thank you. I don't have anybody signed up to speak on this. Was there anybody in the audience that wished to offer testimony on this item? No? Okay. Well, with that, I think we can close the public hearing on this item and discuss it, if I could have a motion to do so. O'Brien: Mr. Chair? Freeman: Commissioner O'Brien. O'Brien: I move to close the public hearing RZ 11-005. Marshall: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to close the public hearing on RZ 11-005, Genesis Center. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carried. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: Any discussion? O'Brien: Not a lot to say. I agree that it's a good move. I think it's a -- well fit in that particular area. I agree that it needs to have it. Freeman: Yeah. It seems pretty straight forward and offering the opportunity for some other businesses to move in there seems like an appropriate location for a business to run longer hours. I'm in favor of it. Marshall: Mr. Chair? Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 5 of 24 Freeman: Commissioner Marshall. Marshall: I am in favor of it. My only concern was the hours of operation in that close proximity to other residences, but it does appear that next door is another business and residences -- or I guess that's their parking lot. With no testimony from anybody there -- and they had to have been noticed, I see no problem with it. Freeman: Okay. Could I get a motion on this item then? O'Brien: Mr. Chair? Freeman: Commissioner O'Brien. O'Brien: After considering all staff, applicant, and public testimony, I move to recommend approval of file number RZ 11-005 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of December 15th, 2011, with no modifications. Rohm: Second. Marshall: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to approve RZ 11-005, Genesis Center. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Thank you very much. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. B. Public Hearing: PFP 11-003 Optometrist Subdivision by McElroy Investments, LLC Located at Northeast Corner of N. Meridian Road and E. Carmel Drive Request: Combined Preliminary and Final Plat Consisting of 2 Building Lots on 1.06 Acres of Land in a C-C Zoning District Freeman: The next item on the agenda is PFP 11-003, Optometrist Subdivision and we will begin with the staff report. Wafters: Thank you, Chairman Freeman, Members of the Commission. The next application before you is a combined preliminary and final plat application consisting of two building lots on 1.06 acres of land in a C-C zoning district. This site is located at 50 East Carmel Drive on the northeast corner of North Meridian Road and East Carmel Drive. Adjacent land use and zoning. To the north is residential property zoned C-C. To the east are residential property in the Playa Manor Estates Subdivision, zoned R-8. To the south is Carmel Drive and vacant property zoned RUT in Ada county. And to the west is vacant rural residential property, zoned RUT in Ada county. A little history on this property. This property was annexed and zoned C-C in 2007 with a development agreement. Earlier this year the development agreement was modified to include a new development plan. A certificate of zoning compliance and design review was approved Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 6 of 24 in July of this year fora 2,700 square foot optometrist office on the southern portion of this site. This is a preliminary plat that the applicant is proposing. The plat on the right does show the design of the site where the optometrist office is being -- currently being built. The proposed plat will subdivide one parcel into two building lots. The southern parcel is currently in the development process, as I stated before. The owner plans to retain the northern lot for future development. Access to the site is proposed via Carmel Drive with cross-access required to be granted to the property to the north, as well as internally within the subdivision. The Comprehensive Plan future land use map designation for this property is commercial. The applicant's proposal complies with the Comp Plan and the Unified Development Code. No written testimony was submitted on this application and staff is recommending approval. Staff will stand for any questions. Freeman: Thank you, Sonya. Any questions of staff? O'Brien: I have one question, Mr. Chair. Freeman: Commissioner O'Brien. O'Brien: Sonya, that collection pond, is that -- how deep is that? Just curious. At least it looks like a collection pond to the -- to the east. I think -- the previous view I think showed -- yes. That -- Wafters: That -- Chairman -- or Commissioner O'Brien, that's the Five Mile Creek. O'Brien: And right next to the parking lot that's part of the creek? Wafters: Oh. That's a -- that's a storm drainage pond. How deep is it? O'Brien: Yes. Wafters: I don't know off the top of my head. The applicant could probably answer that. O'Brien: Fenced? Wafters: No. O'Brien: Should it be? Wafters: Give me a minute, please. Our city code doesn't require -- require it to be fenced, so, you know, it's at the applicant's discretion I guess whether it is a safety concerned or not. O'Brien: Yeah. I don't know either. I just -- it looks to me like it's probably eight, ten feet deep, according to the topographical lines. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 7 of 24 Freeman: Commissioner O'Brien, it appears to me to be maybe four feet deep. If each of those contours beside is a foot, it may be four feet deep and it's very rare that one would be completely full. O'Brien: I was just curious if the water and -- toddlers and things get out -- with the parking lot there if they would -- you know, if that would be a problem. That's my only concern. Friedman: Mr. Chairman, Commissioners, Commissioner O'Brien -- and, again, probably it's more appropriate for the applicant to answer this, but in our experience based on the size of the parking lot and the size of that pond -- I mean we are not talking about a large mass of pavement that you're trying to collect the storm water off of. It appears to be no deeper than four feet. I might point out what's even more interesting is that the Five Mile Creek, which is located to the east of that, has extremely steep banks to it and, of course, it flows during the summer, easily -- well, I know it's easily accessible, because I have been walking along it and can find evidence of all kinds of kids setting up forts and things like that back there. So, as Sonya indicated, we don't necessarily require the fencing and given the size of this pond and -- as opposed to some of the other ponds that we see that even serve our residential subdivisions, you know, as you drive around town you will see some of those ponds, they are not necessarily fenced either, but we certainly understand .your concern and appreciate you pointing that out. O'Brien: Thank you. That's all I have. Freeman: Any other questions? Okay. Would the applicant like to come forward? And, again, please, state your name and address for the record when you reach the microphone. Pachner: Joe Pachner, 391 West State Street, Eagle, Idaho. I represent the -- the applicant. I work for KM Engineering. We concur with the staffs recommendations for the overall development and we will abide by their recommendations. If you do want a little bit more input on that storm drainage -- O'Brien: If you could provide that, sir, that would be fine. Pachner: That storm drainage basin, what it's intended to do is to -- is intended to drain within 24 hours. So, it's going to be dry, you know, almost entirely and except for during the storm event when you will have some residual amount of water in there. But the slopes and everything else are gradual and it's only -- I think it's about three and a half feet deep. O'Brien: Thank you. I appreciate that. Freeman: Thank you. Any other questions of the applicant? Okay. Thank you very much. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 8 of 24 Pachner: Thank you. Freeman: Again, I don't have anybody on the list showing me that somebody wants to give public testimony. Is there anybody in the audience that wishes to give public testimony on this item? No? Could we get a motion to close the public hearing? Rohm: So moved. Marshall: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to close the public hearing on PFP 11-003, Optometrist Subdivision. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: Any discussion? Rohm: I think this is pretty well straight forward and, you know, they are just going to have a second lot and there will be cross-access between it and, then, out of the property as well.. So, it all seems. to be in order. Freeman: I agree with your assessment. Anybody else? O'Brien: I have none. Freeman: Could I get a motion then? Rohm: Mr. Chairman? Freeman: Commissioner Rohm. Rohm: After considering all staff, applicant testimony, I move to recommend approval of file number PFP 11-003 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of December 15th, 2011, with no modifications. Marshall: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to recommend approval of PFP 11- 003, Optometrist Subdivision. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Thank you very much. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. C. Public Hearing: MCU 11-002 Sommersby by Biltmore Company, LLC Located Northeast Corner of N. Ten Mile Road Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 9 of 24 and W. Pine Avenue Request: Conditional Use Permit Approval to Modify the Four-flex Elevations Approved with the Sommersby Planned Development (File #CUP 04-040) Freeman: Okay. The next item on the agenda -- I want to open the public hearing for MCU 11-002, Sommersby, beginning with the staff report. Parsons: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. The project before you this evening is for a modification to a Conditional Use Permit that was approved back in 2004 with a planned unit development. The subject property is located near the northeast corner of Pine Avenue and North Ten Mile Road. I would point out to Commission that these lots have been created through the subdivision process and 11 of these structures have been approved under the planned unit development. Here are the existing elevations that are currently constructed in that subdivision. Currently the way the PD and the conditions in that approval for that PD state that all residential structures need to be constructed of stucco. The applicant is wanting to modify that and is proposing, again, a similar form building, but definitely different building materials. I would point out to Commission that staff has approved a certificate of zoning compliance and design review for 12 the units here and the site plan on the left-hand side depicts where those units will be located. On the upper right corner elevations are the stucco .elevations that staff has approved with the certificate of zoning compliance. Below that is what the applicant is proposing to change -- proposing siding materials to be and that will be a mix of wood and stone, of course, and the applicant has also gone one step farther and added some more modulation on the back facade and included some outdoor storage for the tenants that may occupy that. Staff has reviewed this in conformance with the guidelines in the design manual. Staff is of the opinion that this design is far superior to what is currently constructed and what was approved with that PD. Staff has received written testimony from the applicant. They are in agreement with staffs conditions of approval. Staff has not received any additional testimony on this application and staff is recommending approval with the modifications as before you this evening and with that I'd stand for any questions you may have. Freeman: Thank you, Bill. So, if I understand correctly, the project is approved, it's underway, what they are wanting to do it is upgrade the materials and even the architecture a little bit by adding some modulation. That's what we are considering this evening? Parsons: Chairman, Members of the Commission, you are correct, they are, basically, changing building materials and trying to come up with a far better design than what was previously approved. Freeman: Okay. Thank you. Are there any other questions of staff? O'Brien: I have none. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 10 of 24 Freeman: Okay. Would the applicant like to come forward and, please, state your name and address for the record into the microphone when you get there. Thanks. Amar: Good evening, Mr. Chairman, Commissioners. My name is Kevin Amar. My address is 3681 North Locust Grove, Suite 100. I'm here tonight just to answer any questions and concur with staffs report. We are in agreement. We have no problem with the conditions that they have requested and it is as simple as you said, we are just asking to use different materials, more of an upgraded look, try to be a little different, make it look a little nicer and continue with this project and finish it out. It's been sitting around for long enough I think. Freeman: Well, thank you. I have to compliment you. I think it is an improvement. It's going to add some -- just a sense of quality and a little more interest to what's being provided out there, so I think it's a good move for the community and probably for your project as well I'm assuming. Amar: We did a similar project to this in Canyon county with the same results and had very good reception. So, not only the building owner, but also the tenants that moved in. It made it a little bit less generic I guess. Freeman:. Okay. Are there any questions of the applicant? O'Brien: I just agree. Freeman: Thank you very much. Amar: Thank you. Freeman: And Kevin Amar is the only one who signed up to testify on that. Is there anybody in the audience that wishes to testify on this item? No? Then I think we can close the public hearing on this item with a motion to do so. Rohm: So moved. Marshall: Second. Freeman: It's been motioned and seconded to close the public hearing on MCU 11- 002, Sommersby. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. The public hearing is closed. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: Any further discussion on this? It seems to be just an improved design. like it. Marshall: Mr. Chair? Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 11 of 24 Freeman: Commissioner Marshall. Marshall: After considering staff, applicant, and public testimony, I move to approve file number MCU 11-002 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of December 15th, 2011, with no modifications. O'Brien: Second. Freeman: It's motioned and seconded to recommend approval for MCU 11-002, Sommersby. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Thank you very much. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. D. Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law for Approval: MCU 11-002 Sommersby by Biltmore Company, LLC Located Northeast Corner of N. Ten Mile Road and W. Pine Avenue Request: Conditional Use Permit Approval to Modify the FourPlex Elevations Approved with the Sommersby Planned Development (File #CUP 04-040) Freeman: Before we open the public hearing on the next item we do need to get a motion on approval for the Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law on this item as well. If I could get a motion to do so, unless there is any further discussion on that. Marshall: Mr. Chair? Freeman: Commissioner Marshall. Marshall: I move that we approve the Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law for MCU 11-002. O'Brien: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to approve the Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law on MCU 11-002, Sommersby. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Thanks. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. E. Public Hearing: AZ 11-005 Spurwing Challenge by The Club at Spurwing, LLC Located Northwest Corner of Chinden Boulevard and North Linder Road Request: Annexation of 30 Acres of Land with an R-B Zoning District Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 12 of 24 F.

For this next item we are actually going to open the next four items on the agenda, so I'd like to open the public hearing on Items AZ 11-005, RZ 11-006, CUP 11-009 and PP 11-001, which all have to do with the Spurwing Challenge project. And we will begin with the staff report. Parsons: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. The next project before you has a host of applications. Really it's basically to develop a low density residential subdivision and, of course, a golf course. Again, the applicant is proposing annexation, rezone, preliminary plat, and conditional use approval for a subdivision and a golf course. The subject property is located near the northwest corner of Linder Road and Chinden Boulevard. The annexation itself will bring in a portion of the Spurwing Subdivision currently planned in the county, as well as additional property that was annexed and zoned in 2006 with the Knight Sky development and that would be the portion of the property that's currently zoned R-4, TN-C, and C-C. On the right-hand side I have provided to you a future land map so you can see what the property is currently designated. There is a lot that houses the Spurwing clubhouse and the pool is designated low density residential on our Comprehensive Plan and, then, of course, the driving range and the proposed subdivision and the golf course will be located on property that is designed medium density residential and mixed use community. So, here is what was approved. Here is the concept plan that was approved with the Knight Sky Subdivision. I have only placed this in here to kind of show you how this -- how the previous approval was -- how it's been presented to you and approved and moving forward with what the applicant is proposing. So, you can see we had quite a mix of residential in there at this time and now the applicant's coming before you again this evening with a new plat and, of course, a conditional use of the golf course. The lots Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 13 of 24 are really more secondary to what the applicant's really wanting to construct. It's really their intention to move forward with the construction of the golf course and, then, the subdivision come in later, but as far as complete package the applicant's proposed all the application under one. So, here is the layout that they are proposing and I will get to the concept -- the landscape plan, because it shows a better picture than what you can see on that preliminary plat. So, access to this site -- the applicant is proposing to construct a new collector road at the half mile that will align with Long Lake to the south. They are also proposing to stub a boundary at the east and create that backage road as required by the UDC. Part of their request is to allow the existing road, which is North Spurwing Way, which is located on the western boundary of the proposed subdivision, if you can see my cursor here. They are proposing that to remain right-in, right-out only. Again, they are -- they do have a variance requesting that to remain open. That's something that Council will take up with them once this gets recommended for approval and scheduled for Council hearing. You can see how the applicant's proposing the golf course around the subdivision and, again, it will be nine holes. The annexation request is simply so -- to bring in these additional lots and hook up that clubhouse and pool that I mentioned to you earlier, so that the applicant can get sewer to that property. City water will not be provided to this subdivision. Out there it's United Water has a contract with the city to provide that service. So, they will be handling that. If I move to the concept plan for the golf course. You can see that I have marked that the commercial -- the. conceptual layout for the golf course -- or .the .commercial .portion is not being approved at this time. A portion of this property is being rezoned from TN-C to C-C, just for the mere fact that there may not be a contiguous parcel to meet the dimensional standards of that zone, so they have proposed to zone that to C-C, which is consistent with the land use designation. Staff felt it better to leave that out for now. We don't -- think the applicant put it in here as a place holder to show you how it could maybe meld with the commercial development in the future. Staff -- given that Knight Sky Estates has its own separate DA staff felt it better that they come back and amend the original DA and deal with this commercial portion at a later date and the applicant really is not proposing to develop that with this application. So, it's just better -- cleaner from the staffs standpoint just to leave that out of the DA for this point and the approvals. I would mention that open space amenities and all those things are being provided in accordance with the code, so staff finds that they are in substantial compliance with that. Staff did get a written agreement from -- or, excuse me, a written response from the applicant in regards to the staff report. There were some conditions that they were concerned about. Staff has prepared a separate memo for you this evening kind of outlining what we are proposing Commission take action on and I will go through those very quickly. So, the first concern is, as I mentioned to you earlier, is the applicant would really like to phase this and it really is their intention, before they could even move forward on developing this subdivision they need to actually move the existing driving range and get the new one under construction. But typically you can't construct on a lot until you have a legal lot or a parcel that you can build on and so staff is recommending a new DA provision and that's what I highlighted in number one. So, basically, the applicant would come in, process the property boundary adjustment with city, in the general figuration of what the plat is this evening before you. Upon that staff could, then, issue the certificate of zoning compliance and design review and, then, they Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 14 of 24 could proceed with construction of that driving range without technically coming in with a plat. We could create one parcel and they could build the driving range. And, then, they would have up to two years to come in and get approval of the final plat. So, that's what we are proposing this evening. Have spoken with the applicant, they are in agreement with that new DA provision as well and, then, the other items two through ten are just, basically, clarification for the applicant, of course for city staff moving forward. So, really, condition 1.2.2, the applicant -- there is a pathway requirement along Chinden Boulevard with this application. That pathway will be constructed within the right of way of ITD and so it doesn't require pedestrian easement. So, we are just going to strike that and later on what we are going to do is add some verbiage to another condition that basically states that they will provide documentation from ITD that they have got the construction drawings approved for that pathway and it's okay to be located in the right of way. So, we can address that very easily. We will be striking some wording in condition 1.3.3. The applicant is not proposing any fencing along the 35 foot landscape buffer along Chinden, so we felt it appropriate to strike that. 1.6.6 has basically been addressed with the new DA provision that staff has proposed and, basically, what that provision deals with is basically any improvements that aren't completed, it gives them the opportunity to bond and place surety for that. So, the applicant's in agreement with that condition now. Then, condition 2.4 is a Public Works condition. I have coordinated with Mr. Steckline. Basically we are going to change that from rather. than platting a 20 foot common lot, we will change that to read that they will provide a 20 foot wide permanent easement through the common lot of Spurwing Subdivision and golf course. 2.17, Public Works is in agreement with striking that and so is the applicant. And, then, condition 4.3, 4.6, and 4.7 staff is also recommending that we just strike that. It has been addressed with the previous condition that they will coordinate with ITD and get those approvals in place for the pathway. So, we feel adequate -- that we have adequate conditions in place to monitor that and regulate that. So, moving forward, again, the only other testimony that I received was from the applicant and, then, the concerns that I presented to you this evening. Staff has not received any additional testimony. Again, staff is recommending approval of all three applications and as we move on to Council they will be acting on a variance and a DA modification to address, of course, the block length and the variance to Chinden. That's all staff has for you this evening. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Freeman: Thank you, Bill. Any questions of staff? No questions? Would the applicant like to come forward. And state your name and address for the record when you reach the microphone. Larsen: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission. My name is Cornell Larsen. My address is 210 Murray in Garden City, and I'm here tonight representing the applicant on this project. We are in agreement with the staff report as staff had indicated the modifications to you tonight, so we are in agreement with that. We are in need, as staff mentioned, of building the driving range first and part of that's because we are replacing the existing driving range with a new driving range. It takes about a year to grow in a golf course from the time you put grass on it until the Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 15 of 24 time you can play on it. So, the first condition on the sheet that was handed out to you by staff is fairly important to us to allow us to move forward with relocating the driving range. There is several reasons for relocating the driving range, but the one is we would like to have it a little bit longer, so the players now are hitting better golf balls and better clubs and the balls are going a little farther and as Chinden widens we just lose length off of the driving range that's there. So, again, that's part of the reason for moving the driving range and part of the reason for a little bit of the complexity of the issue before you. I have had some discussions with some of the neighbors. Mr. Mallea -- and I may have pronounced his name incorrectly, but he had some concerns about not wanting netting along the north boundary of the driving range. We are not proposing any netting at this time. He also had some concerns about the berming heights and landscaping along there and we really haven't addressed that with our landscape architect at this point in time. Or I shouldn't say our landscape, but our golf course architect, because he does all the landscape on the course. And I believe he also had some concerns about the chipping practice area and I think we are potentially able to work with him and address those, as well as maybe the closeness of the parking lot to his property and we could certainly -- we have got an extra landscape island in there we could move that to the north -- to the north boundary to give him a little more room up there. So, I would be happy to answer any questions you might have and, then, come back if I need to as the public decides to testify, if there is people here to. Freeman: Okay. Thank you. Any questions of the applicant? O'Brien: I don't have any right now. Freeman: I have one. The chipping area that you mentioned, where do I see it on the plan? I see the driving range up against the north boundary. Larsen: It came out in sort of a later -- Freeman: So, it's not on here, that's why I don't see it. Larsen: So, if I could -- I could certainly -- I have got a couple copies of that I could hand to you if you would like. Freeman: That's okay. I was just -- you mentioned it, I was looking for it, didn't see it, that explains why I don't see it. Larsen: It's kind of tucked up in the corner of the tee box area along the north boundary, but it's -- Freeman: Okay. Larsen: -- it's facing to the south and it really needs to face to the east and west, because it's kind of hitting back towards the tee box, which we need to adjust that. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 16 of 24 One of the iterations of the plan that was out there it was shown that way and I brought that along in case that question came up. Freeman: Okay. Thank you. O'Brien: Mr. Chair, just -- Freeman: Commissioner O'Brien. O'Brien: Thank you. I'm concerned -- I have a question about the berms. You said a neighbor had a concern about the berms and location and height or something like that. Is that correct? Larsen: He had some concerns about the height of the berming along the driving range of the north boundary of the driving range, which is his common lot to our common lot. O'Brien: So, do we need to have a better layout or something like that before this is approved? Because we don't really know what it's going to look like elevationwise for the final approval. Do we need to have that first? Freeman: I don't think so. I don't think we need to see that level of detail at this stage. We will hear some public testimony tonight that might shed some more light on that. O'Brien: Okay. Thank you. Freeman: Then we can talk about it. Larsen: That's fairly typical of having the golf course architect design the driving range and how the berming works and the placement and the screening and -- and, obviously, he doesn't want errant golf balls going to somebody else's property, but, obviously, anybody can hit one anywhere. At least if I'm playing. And so we usually don't get into some of those design issues until we have got through a good deal of the approval process and, then, we sometimes work on those with staff through the CZC process. O'Brien: Thank you. Freeman: Any other questions? Okay. Thank you, Mr. Larsen. Larsen: Thank you. Freeman: Okay. I do have a few people on the list to offer public testimony this evening. Andrew Lawrence. And, please, state your name and address for the record when you reach the microphone. Lawrence: Andrew Lawrence. I reside at 1685 West Brandt Lane in Meridian. I am northeast of this project. I'm neutral on this, although I have some concerns. One Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 17 of 24 concern is they are leaving the corner of Linder and Chinden developed and to me it looks like someone didn't have any forethought here as far as marketing. They would show a lot of advertising on that corner by just showing that they have a golf course and the driving range and that people driving by would see it. It just seems to me that it's -- someone is trying to go for greed, rather than promote the main basic project and it would enhance their project if it were all just golf course and driving range area. Secondly, I'm concerned about the water underneath the project. There is a well for the existing residents on Brandt Lane and Barney Lane and if they are using chemicals, like most golf courses do, we have got a -- you know, a test lab under there and we are using that water. I just want to stir some things up and give some food for thought here. Thank you. Freeman: Thank you. Next person on the list is Linda Lawrence. Okay. So, you don't wish to testify this evening. Ken Mallea. Please state your name and address for the record when you reach the mikes. Mallea: Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission, my name is Ken Mallea. I live at 2241 Almaden Drive, Meridian. 83646. As has been mentioned -- as Mr. Larsen mentioned, our property is five -- a little over five acres and just to the north of the driving range and, Mr. Chairman, you asked about the layout of the practice green and so forth and the practice bunker. Freeman: Yes. Mallea: And the only thing that I ever had was their drawing and it was -- it was over at the club and that's where I obtained it. And I do understand the developer's concerns about spending a lot of money at this time for the landscape architect. We support the project. The last time that we were in front of this Commission and in front of the City Council was on the Knight Sky project. The room was full, tempers were hot. You know how that turned out. But we think this is a much better project. Certainly be more favorable for our purposes. We -- I have an aerial photo here and we are pasture and the barn and a riding arena and that's what we have always been there. So, we think that it will be possible to cohabit in that area. My concern, as Mr. Larsen mentioned and as Commissioner O'Brien recognized, that people on a driving range can -- in our case if you're aright-handed golfer it would be a hook or dub or a pull. But any of those could land certainly on our property. If they are alert-handed golfer it would be a nasty slice. So, our concern was with the height and width of the berm and the tree barrier, that it be consistent and that it be, you know, capable of stopping some of these -- some of these balls that are hit. That's our primary concern. I would ask only -- and I do think that they have been very cooperative and Mr. Larsen has been very forthcoming in the project. I think we can work together on this stuff. The only issue that I would ask the Commission to possibly consider -- or the staff to consider would be that if in the future the developer or the club or whoever controls that ground, thinks that a net or some kind of a fence, for instance, that you might see at Foxtail or at some of these driving ranges, if in the future their wisdom is that they need to install one, I would ask that part of the Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 18 of 24 development agreement stipulate that that net be interior to their project and south of the tree and the berm line and I think that would be appropriate. Freeman: Okay. Thank you. That was our timer that just went off. Mallea: Yes. Yes, sir. I'm well aware of them. I see them in the courtroom and usually they keep hammering me with questions. Freeman: Are there any questions for the applicant -- or for the -- O'Brien: Mr. Chair? Freeman: On this testimony? Commissioner O'Brien. O'Brien: So, the best thing is that they -- in this particular project you're suggesting that the berm and tree line and a net be used and the net being on the inside of the property line? Is that what I hear you saying? Mallea: No. Commissioner O'Brien and Members of the Commission, I'm not telling the design architect or the golf architect his business and I don't claim to know it. But if it turns out that the berm and the tree line that they hope is sufficient and that we hope is. sufficient -- if it turns out that it's not adequate, that in the future we ask that the fence or netting be placed to the south of the -- of the planned berm and tree line as part of the development agreement. Freeman: Okay. Any other questions? O'Brien: Thank you. Freeman: Thank you. Mallea: Thank you, Members of the Commission. Freeman: Was there anybody else in the audience that wished to offer testimony on this this evening? Okay. Could I get a motion, then, to close the public hearing? Marshall: Mr. Chair? Freeman: Yes. Friedman: Excuse me. Mr. Chairman -- Freeman: Yes. Friedman: -- Commissioners, just a quick response to the testimony you just heard. Certainly appreciate and respected the gentleman's thoughts and -- as a neighbor, an Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 19 of 24 affected neighbor on that and it sounds like he really does have more experience in the golf course business than he leads us to believe. However, one of the things -- rather than have a development agreement condition talking about the net, because the outdoor recreation facility, which is the golf course, is a Conditional Use Permit and if it is the pleasure of the Commission tonight to approve that, you could incorporate a condition that says, you know, if the berming and the trees do not functionally address the issues of errant balls, then, prior to the provision of a net, a fence, or so forth, the applicant shall seek a Conditional Use Permit modification, which, then, brings it back before the Commission, which, then, gives the public an opportunity to comment on that, rather than have it tied to the development agreement. So, I think that might be a way to build in at least a safety valve if you will, so it's just that -- we don't -- if you're trying to amend a development agreement, which is a legal document and so forth, but we certainly can amend the Conditional Use Permit, which, then, also allows for this public transparent process, a neighborhood meeting, of course, which would be required ahead of time, an opportunity for the golf course operator and the neighbors to have some dialogue and some conversation. So, just a suggestion or a thought. Freeman: Thank you, Pete. And I was getting ahead of myself. I need to give the applicant another opportunity to come speak again if you would like to. Larsen: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. Cornell Larsen again. I .don't think we have any problem with the condition that Pete was suggesting, in case there is a problem or an area where we need netting we can certainly address that through a modification of the CU at some point in the future, if that is necessary. Freeman: Okay. Larsen: And other than that we would have maybe liked to have taken the corner as part of the development package for the golf course, but it wasn't one of those things that worked for us very well, so -- I can't respond to the chemicals, because I'm not sure that -- how they will impact the drainage or any of that, so -- Freeman: Okay. Any other questions? Rohm: I have none. Freeman: Thank you. Larsen: Thank you. Freeman: Could I get a motion to close the public hearing on these items. Marshall: So moved. Rohm: Second. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 20 of 24 Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to close the public hearing on Items AZ 11-005, RZ 11-006, CUP 11-009 and PP 11-011 regarding Spurwing Challenge. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: Discussion? O'Brien: Mr. Chair, Ihave a -- Freeman: Commissioner O'Brien. O'Brien: -- cloud over my head right now and has to do with the -- with the concern of the chemicals in the golf course -- and that's come up before at other golf courses here in the valley of residents nearby. It depends upon I think what aquifer they are -- or how deep the wells are that are serving those residential areas. Does anybody on staff know or maybe Scott can help us out on that? I'm not sure. Steckline: Mr. Chair, Commissioners, Commissioner O'Brien, that's a private well for the individuals. We do not know the depth of the aquifer there. It would be very difficult for staff to comment on it, as we are not the water purveyor in that .area. You're absolutely right, we do have other areas in golf courses where the city does own and have aquifers that are within -- relative to other golf courses and such and we have not experienced any issues or problems with those. If I had to make an educated guess I would probably say that their aquifer for the private development is relatively deep given the geographical topography. We just don't have that insight to give you the information on that at this point in time. O'Brien: That's exactly what I was looking for. Thank you, Scott. Appreciate it. That's all I have. Marshall: Scott, I would like to follow up a question real quick. How long have we had -- do you have any idea -- a guesstimate of how long we have had wells near golf courses here locally? And I'm assuming that those wells -- we test that water daily; correct? Steckline: Absolutely. Marshall: Looking mostly for nitrates, I assume, and phosphorous. Steckline: Mr. Commission, Commissioners, Commissioner Marshall, we are required by the Department of Environmental Quality to test on a monthly basis individual sites, as I would believe that the homeowners that have their private well are required to do so, we test for a variety of different things. Arsenic, manganese -- I could go on. Fecal chloroforms and such and I'm sure that any private water facility that the individuals would have would be required to do so also. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 21 of 24 Marshall: And so we have had golf courses near these sites for how many years? How long, approximately, maybe -- Steckline: I couldn't give you the -- the approximate time frame of how long we have had facilities or wells within well sites. We try to strategically locate them due to our flows and our areas that we have. We do try not to put them close to golf courses or city owned facilities. Sometimes it's difficult for the city to purchase pieces of property solely for reservoirs or wells or such, so we try to locate them within areas that we already currently own. As far as a date or how long we have had wells in existence around various golf courses I couldn't give you that information. Marshall: Thank you. Freeman: Discussion on this item? Who wants to go first? Rohm: I don't know. I think -- I think it's a good project and I think that the developers have been working closely with the neighbors and -- and that's -- really, that's the only thing that seems to be before us is making sure that the concerns are being addressed and can continue to be as they complete their golf course development strategy. So, as long as in our motion we incorporate Mr. Friedman's comments. I think we should be in pretty good shape and the interest of the public as a whole will be protected. Freeman: I agree and I'm glad you brought up the modifications suggested by Pete Friedman. I think that's a good idea that we include that as well. Rohm: Absolutely. Freeman: Well, with that could I get a motion? Rohm: I saw Joe making some notes here, so -- Marshall: All right. Well, I'll take a stab here. Mr. Chair? Freeman: Commissioner Marshall. Marshall: After considering all staff, applicant, and public testimony, I move to recommend approval to City Council of file numbers AZ 11-005, RZ 11-006, PP 11-001, CUP 11-009 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of December 15th, 2011, with the following modifications: I'd like to include the memorandum, points one through ten as written by staff addressing the comments by the applicant and to include if there is any modifications to netting or any type of modifications to the berm and tree placement that it must be requested as an amendment to the Conditional Use Permit. Freeman: A modification to the Conditional Use Permit; correct? Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 22 of 24 Marshall: Correct. Marshall: Yeah. Modification to the permit. Requested as a modification. I wrote amendment. Modification to the Conditional Use Permit. Rohm: 1'll second that motion. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned and seconded to recommend approval of AZ 11- 005, RZ 11-006, PP 11-011, CUP 11-009, with the modifications as noted. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Thank you. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Item 5: Other Items A. Election of New Officers for 2012 -Chair and Vice Chair Freeman: Okay. We do have at least one more item on the agenda, if not two. I haven't forgotten you, Pete. We need to elect officers for 2012 and we can -- we can have discussion if we would like. I think we need to do it like we did last year where we -- we do chairman separately, once we figure out who is going to be chairman, then, we will do vice-chairman and I believe everybody got the note from Steven Yearsley -- Commissioner Yearsley that he is interested in the vice-chair position if we would like to consider him for that. So, with that let's just put the question out there for the position of chair for 2012. Any discussion, nominations, whatever you gentlemen would like to do? Rohm: How long have you have been there? Freeman: It's been years, Commissioner Rohm. Rohm: Just one year, hasn't it? Freeman: It's been one year. Rohm: Okay. I nominate you to retain your position for one more year. O'Brien: Second. Freeman: Can we discuss this? Rohm: No. Freeman: We have a motion and a second for Commissioner Freeman to maintain the chair for one more year. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Okay. Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 23 of 24 Freeman: The question of vice-chair then. Marshall: I nominate Steven Yearsley. O'Brien: Second. Freeman: Any discussion on that item? I think he's ready to take on the job and I think he will be fine. Okay. So, I have a motion and a second to have Commissioner Yearsley take the position of vice-chair for 2012. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: If somebody will let him know that. Friedman: I will a-mail him after the meeting. Freeman: Thank you. And, then, before we close this evening Pete asked for just a few minutes of our time. Friedman: Actually, more than -- Freeman: You said three. Friedman: I actually mean just a few seconds. We have said it and you have heard it over and over and over again how much we appreciate the amount of time, effort, thought that you put into your service to the community and on behalf of the Planning Department staff we just wanted to again thank you -- thank you for your work this past year and wish you and yours a happy holiday. Freeman: Thank you, Pete. Marshall: Thank you very much. Freeman: For our part we very much enjoy working with you guys. You do a top notch job. We second that? We don't need to pass that, do we? Okay. I need one more motion then. Rohm: I move to adjourn. Marshall: Second. Freeman: Okay. It's been motioned to adjourn. All those in favor say aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 15, 2011 Page 24 of 24 MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT. Freeman: We are adjourned. Thank you. MEETING ADJOURNED AT 8:00 P.M.
