VII. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
This property is designated "Medium Density Residential" (MDR) on the Comprehensive Plan Future
Land Use Map (FLUM). The MDR designation allows smaller lots for residential purposes within
City limits. Uses may include single-family homes at densities of 3 to 8 dwelling units per acre.
Density bonuses may be considered with the provision of public amenities such as open space,
pathways, or land dedicated for public services.
A portion of the subject site, 16.5+/- acres, is currently zoned R-8. The remainder, 9810.03 acres, is
proposed to be annexed with an R-8 zoning district. The applicant proposes to develop the site with
77 single-family detached homes at a gross density of ~ 2.90 (net density of 3-:8 3.78) dwelling
units per acre slightly under the target density of the MDR designation.
Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to
the proposed use of this property (staff analysis in italics):
Paramount North AZ-12-002; PP-012-006 PAGE 3
EXHIBIT A
• Support a variety of residential categories (low-, medium-, medium-high and high-density
single-family, multi-family, townhouses, duplexes, apartments, condominiums, etc.) for the
purpose of providing the City with a range of affordable housing opportunities.
The proposed preliminary plat depicts 77 single family residential building lots on 26.9.752
acres of land resulting in a gross density of ~ 2.90 dwelling units per acre, slightly lower
than the target density of the MDR designation of 3 to 8 dwelling units per acre. The
surrounding property that is part of Paramount Subdivision is also designated MDR and
zoned R-8.
• Provide housing options close to employment and shopping centers. (Chapter 3, pg. 54)
The proposed residential development will provide housing opportunities in close proximity
to the new Fred Meyer shopping center at Chinden & Linder and a little further away to the
Meridian Town Center & Meridian Crossroads developments at Fairview & Eagle.
• Require new residential development to meet development standards regarding landscaping,
signage, fences and walls, etc.
Street buffer landscaping is required adjacent to the collector streets (Fox Run & Producer)
proposed within this development in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C as
shown on the landscape plan. Separate permits shall be obtained for signage and fencing.
Fencing shall comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7.
VIII. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE (UDC)
A. Purpose Statement of Zone: Per UDC 11-2A-1, the purpose of the residential districts is to
provide for a range of housing opportunities consistent with the Meridian comprehensive plan.
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.
B. Schedule of Use: Unified Development Code (UDC) Table 11-2A-2 lists the principal permitted
(P), accessory (A), conditional (C), and prohibited (-) uses in the R-8 zoning district. Any use not
explicitly listed, or listed as a prohibited use is prohibited. The proposed use of the property for
single-family detached dwellings is a principal permitted use in the R-8 zoning district.
C. Dimensional Standards: Development of the site should be consistent with the dimensional
standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-6 for the R-8 zoning district.
D. Landscaping: Landscaping: Street buffer landscaping shall be installed in accordance with the
standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-6 for the R-8 zoning district.
E. Off-Street Parking: Off-street parking is required in accord with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for single-
family dwellings.
IX. ANALYSIS
A. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation:
Annexation & Zoning
The Applicant has applied to annex and zone ~9-5810.03 acres of land with an R-8 zoning district.
As discussed above in Section VII, the proposed zoning is consistent with the FLUM designation
of MDR.
The annexation request includes two parcels of land; however, the legal description and exhibit
map shown in Exhibit C does not include the entire portion of the eastern parcel. There is a 60' x
300' +/- strip that is not included. Staff has spoken with the applicant and the applicant is in the
Paramount North AZ-12-002; PP-012-006 PAGE 4
EXHIBIT A
process of revising the legal description to include this area. The annexation legal description &
exhibit map has been revised & is included in Exhibit A.
Concept Plan/Elevations: Aconceptual development plan is proposed with this application as
shown in Exhibit A.4. Staff has reviewed this plan and found the proposed plat is consistent with
the plan. However, the conceptual development plan should be revised (as should the plat) to
include the additional area required to be included in the annexation boundary noted above. The
concept plan has been revised & is included in Exhibit A.
Conceptual building elevations for the residential homes were also submitted as shown in Exhibit
A.S.
Because development of the majority of this site is subject to the development agreement (DA)
approved with the original Paramount annexation, staff is not recommending a new DA for the
I:~S 10.03 acre portion of the site proposed to be annexed with this application.
Preliminary Plat
A preliminary plat is proposed that consists of 77 building lots on ~7 26.52 acres of land in the
R-8 zoning district for Paramount North Subdivision.
A portion of the property, 16.49 acres, was annexed with Paramount Subdivision in 2003; the
remainder of the property is proposed to be annexed with this application. The portion that was
annexed previously was included in the original preliminary plat for Paramount as one large 34.9
acre lot for future single-family residential uses. The remaining portion of that lot that is not
being re-platted with this application will be re-platted in the future.
The conditional use permit/planned development approved for the annexed portion of this site in
2003, allowed block lengths in excess of 1,000 feet; 5,500 square foot (s.£) building lots; 1,301
s.f. dwelling size, exclusive of garage; 50' minimum street frontage; and setbacks as follows:
front - 10', rear - 15', side - 5', street side 10'.
Dimensional Standards: Staff has reviewed the proposed plat for compliance with the R-8
standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A.6 for the R-8 district and the above noted reduced
standards. Thee street frontages for Lots 22 & 25, Block 48 need to be revised to meet the 50'
minimum; and a shared driveway will be required to be provided on Lots 7 & 8, Block 48. The
boundary of the plat shall be revised to include the area required to be included within the
annexation boundary. The preliminary plat has been revised to include the additional annexation
area and is included in Exhibit A.
Access: Access to this site is proposed on the plat via the existing W. Producer Drive (from N.
Meridian Road) and N. Fox Run Way (from Chinden Blvd.). ACHD comments are included in
Exhibit B.
Multi-Use Pathway: A 10-foot wide multi-use pathway is required to be constructed within Lot
38, Block 48 as shown on the landscape plan attached in Exhibit A.3 within a public use
easement. Landscaping is required to be installed in accord with UDC 11-3B-12.
Landscaping: A landscape plan was submitted with this application as shown in Exhibit A.3.
Street buffer landscaping is required to be installed in accord with UDC 11-3B-7C.
Open Space & Site Amenities: A minimum of 10% of the site is required to consist of open
space in accord with UDC 11-3G-3A; qualified open space is defined in UDC 11-3G-3B. The site
consists of 26.452 acres (including the additional annexation area); therefore, a minimum of
2.645 acres of qualified open space is required to be provided.
Paramount North AZ-12-002; PP-012-006 PAGE 5
EXHIBIT A
. Additionally, the
calculations table shown on the plan shall demonstrate compliance with these standards.
In accord with UDC 11-3G-3A.2, a minimum of two site amenities are required to be provided
with this development as defined in UDC 11-3G-3C. The applicant proposes to construct a 10-
foot wide multi-use pathway to connect the existing pathway along Fox Run to Meridian Road
and a children's play structure with benches as amenities.
In summary, Staff recommends approval of the proposed annexation and preliminary plat
request for this site with the recommended conditions listed in Exhibit B of this report in accord
with the findings contained in Exhibit C.
