Residential developments should establish an appropri- ate organizing framework of roadways and pedestrian walkways that provide an internal circulation network, which promotes vehicular and pedestrian mobility, par- allel routes, and connectivity to adjacent uses. E-1.3.2.1.1. Circulation should link residential areas to neighbor- hood places, including, but not limited to, common and open spaces, schools, parks, transit facilities, and nearby retail uses. E-1.3.2.1.2. Where appropriate, incorporate traffic calming strat- egies that increase neighborhood safety and provide opportunity to enhance the character of roadways and streetscapes. E-1.3.2.2. Locate buildings to establish an appropriate develop- ment character that enhances the compatibility and attractiveness of the site, adjacent uses, and neighbor- hood. (Note: This guideline is not intended for individual single-family dwellings.) E-1.3.2.2.1. Appropriately use setbacks or bring buildings up close to roadways to establish a uniform street pres- ence and support a contiguous pedestrian environ- ment. Orient primary building fagades toward road- ways and provide walkways that connect entrances. E-1.3.2.2.2. In addition to the esta blishment of a street presence, developments should create appropriate relation- ships to surrounding uses, including residential areas that integrate a mixture of mitigation and enhance- ment techniques, but not limited to screening.

This application is for (2) two story apartment buildings, on S. Accolade Ave. in the Gramercy Subdivision. This application also includes the carports and site improvements for the project. Amenities provided with this development include access to other amenities as developed for the Gramercy Subdivision including open space, both private "pocket" parks and dedication of land to Gordon Harris Park, as well as connections to pedestrian pathways. The proposed project addresses the guidelines contained in the Meridian Design Manual and UDC 11-3A- 19: 1. Architectural Character: a. The building design utilizes facade modulation and changes in materials, details and colors to offset the visual mass of the building and provide interest at different scales. b. The building entrances provide additional visual interest, a more pedestrian scale and reduce the appearance of the overall building mass. C. Roof lines are modulated through the use of hip & gable roof forms. d. Pattern variations are achieved by the use of different types of siding, overhangs, columns and entrance details. e. Window openings have been placed in appropriate locations for spaces within the buildings as well as providing a balanced window arrangement. f. The mechanical equipment will be screened by landscaping and/or fencing. 2. Color and materials. See attached color elevation renderings. Colors are utilized to reduce the overall mass of the building and emphasize the modulation of the building mass. The building wall finishes will consist of stone veneer, painted lapped siding, stucco and painted board and batten siding. The windows will have tan vinyl frames. Roofing is architectural style fiberglass shingles. Two color schemes are proposed for the apartment buildings. 3. Site Plan and Building Layout a. The buildings are clustered along the parking areas to provide convenient walking distances for pedestrians. b. Parking areas are located are screened with large planting islands for trees and shrubs. C. Access to the project is provided via driveways connected to S. Accolade Avenue, and by pedestrian connections to existing pathways d. The internal vehicular circulation is an appropriate and efficient configuration for a residential project of this size.

Jaurena, Commissioner Jim Hansen, Commissioner In response to your request for comment, the Ada County Highway District (ACHD) staff has reviewed the submitted application and site plan for the item referenced above. ACHD has determined that the improvements identified below will be required as a condition of approval for this design review application. Driveway Location Policy: District Policy 7207.4.1 requires driveways located near intersections to be located a minimum of 75 -feet (measured centerline -to -centerline) from the nearest street intersection and that successive driveways away from an intersection shall have no minimum spacing requirements for access points along a local street. Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. District Policy 7207.4.3 requires driveways to be paved their full width and at least 30 feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway. Minor Improvements Policy: ACHD District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing streets adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These improvements are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; replacement of unused driveways with curb, gutter and sidewalk; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs; traffic control devices; and other similar items.
