6. LAND USE
A. Existing Land Use(s): The subject property is currently vacant land, zoned R-15.
B. Character of Surrounding Area and Adjacent Land Use and Zoning: This area is predominantly
developed with a mix of single family residences and several commercial buildings, zoned R1, R-
2, R-8, R-15 and C-G.
C. History of Previous Actions: In 2012, the property received approval of a new preliminary plat
(PP-12-013) and development agreement modification (MDA-12-008) (DA instrument
#113019368) to develop twenty-eight (28) single family lots and one (1)multi-family lot. A
subsequent final plat (FP-13-002) was recorded consistent with the approved preliminary plat.
The single family lots are developed with single family attached homes. The platted multi-family
lot is being further subdivided with the subject application.
D. Utilities:
1. Public Works:
a. Location of water: All utilities are available in the adjacent private streets.
b. Location of sewer: All utilities are available in the adjacent private streets.
c. Issues or concerns: None
E. Physical Features:
1. Canals/Ditches Irrigation: The Alleman Lateral is tiled and bisects the property. The applicant
is proposing to re-route this lateral to accommodate the design of the proposed development.
2. Hazards: Staff is not aware of any hazards that exist on this property.
3. Flood Plain: This site is not impacted by the flood plain.
7. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
The site is designated "Mixed-use Regional" on the future land use map. The mixed-use area
anticipates densities between six (6) and forty (40) dwellings per acre. The proposed preliminary plat
includes 40 residential lots and 4 common lots on 5.28 acres for a total gross density of 7.58 dwelling
units/acre which falls within the density parameters stated in the Comprehensive Plan.
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):
1. "Permit new development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of
final approval and development is contiguous to the City." (3.01.01 F, pg. 45)
Centre Point Square PP-13-042; MDA-13-025 - 3 -
EXHIBIT A
City services are available to service the proposed development.
2. "Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to enhance connectivity and
better traffic flow." (3.03.03C, pg. 48)
All of the public and private roadways are constructed within the development providing access to
Ustick Road and Eagle Road. The road network is not changing with the subject application. N.
Cajun Lane is stubbed to the property to the north for future connectivity.
3. "Require pedestrian access connectors in all new development to link subdivisions together to
promote neighborhood connectivity as part of a community pathway system." (3.03.03B, pg. 48)
The Bienville Square Subdivision was approved with pedestrian connectivity consistent with the
MU-R designation. A 10 foot wide multi-use pathway was constructed along the southern and
western boundaries and several internal micropaths were constructed with previous phases. The
proposed development also includes interconnected pathways that provides connectivity to the
existing system and links the residential portion of the development with the commercial
development adjacent to Eagle Road.
4. "Require common areas for all subdivisions." (3.07.02F, pg. 55)
The applicant is required to provide and maintain 10 percent of common open space per the
recorded development agreement. The submitted plan depicts approximately 1.06 acres of
common open space which exceeds the requirement of the DA. The primary open space for the
development is a central mew lot which is approximately 39, 000 square feet.
5. "Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent
parcels." (3.06.O1F, pg. 53).
Originally, the project envisioned a multi family component for the property. During the previous
hearing the neighbors voiced concerns with a multi family development within Bienville Square
Subdivision. Based on these concerns, the applicant has elected to proceed with a DA modification
to plat additional single family lots. The applicant is proposing to develop forty (40) additional
single family lots with a mix of single family detached and single family attached homes consistent
with the adjacent single family developments. Further, the applicant is proposing a mew
development to increase the usable open space within the development.
Although the applicant is proposing a different development plan for the site, staff is of the opinion
the proposed development maintains the residential component of the mixed use area, provides
additional open space and adequate buffering between the commercial area and the existing
single family to the west.
6. "Encourage infill development in vacant/undeveloped areas within the City over fringe area
development to halt the outward progression of urban development." (5.01.02B, pg. 69)
This is the last remnant residential parcel to develop consistent with this objective.
7. "Elevate quality of design for houses and apartments; evaluate the need for design review
guidelines for single-family homes." (3.07.020, pg. 56)
The single family homes within the proposed development will be subject to the design standards
in UDC 11-3A-19 and the guidelines in the Meridian Design Manual.
Based on the above analysis, staff is of the opinion that the proposed development is generally
consistent with comprehensive plan.
8. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE
A. Purpose Statement of the Residential Districts (R-15): The purpose of the residential districts is
Centre Point Square PP-13-042; MDA-13-025 - 4 -
EXHIBIT A
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 Control: Unified Development Code (UDC) 11-ZA-2 lists single family detached
and single family attached housing as a principally permitted use in the R-15 zoning district.
C. Dimensional Standards: Development of the site shall comply with the dimensional standards
listed in UDC 11-2A-7 for the R-15 zoning district.
D. Landscaping:
1. The proposed micropath is required to comply with the design standards in accord with UDC
11-3A-8 and UDC 11-3B-12.
2. Percentage of site as open space: Per UDC I1-3G-3, the previous plat was required to provide
10 percent open space and one site amenity. A provision in the recorded DA requires
compliance with this requirement with the development of this property.
E. Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards: The subdivision must comply with the
subdivision design standards outlined in UDC 11-6C-3.
F. Off-Street Parking: Off-street parking is required in accord with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for single-
family dwellings.
9. ANALYSIS
Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation:
MDA Application: The applicant is proposing to re-plat Lot 31, Block 2 of Bienville Square
Subdivision No. 2. The previous plat approved a single 4.23 acre multi-family lot. Currently, this
lot is developed with the open space approved with Bienville Square Subdivision No. 2 as
allowed under the recorded DA. Now that multi-family is no longer proposed for the
development, the applicant must amend the DA to allow the single family development and
maintain the 10 percent open space. Staff has identified the appropriate DA sections that need to
be modified:
• Section 4.1: The second phase includes the development of up to 28 single family lots ~
~"'''~ f '„~';~'~' and 5 common/other lots pertinent to PP-12-013 application.
Section 6, provision 6.1.14: ,

Add new language to Section 4 and Section 6:
• Section 4: The third phase includes the development of up to 40 single family lots and 4
common/other lots pertinent to PP-13-042 application.
Section 6: All single family homes (detached and attached) within the proposed development
shall obtain certificate of the zoning compliance and administrative design review approval.
The rear of the structures on Lots 24-35 and Lots 42-44, Block 3 that face N. Cajun. Lane
shall incorporate articulation and modulation throu hgh changes in materials, color, fenestration
and architectural elements (horizontal and vertical) to break up monotonous wall planes and
roof lines.
Centre Point Square PP-13-042; MDA-13-025 - 5 -
EXHIBIT A
Preliminary Plat (PP): The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval of forty (40)
residential lots and four (4) common/other lots on 5.28 acres of land. The proposed single family
lots range in size from 2,557 square feet up to 4,849 square feet respectively. The gross density
for the proposed plat is 7.58 dwelling units to the acre; excluding the private street lot (Lot 1,
Block 3) the gross density is 9.46 dwelling units to the acre.
The property is zoned R-15 and all of the proposed lots must comply with the dimensional
standards established in the UDC. The R-15 zoning district does not have a minimum street
frontage requirement and the minimum lot size per dwelling unit is 2,400 square feet. After
reviewing the plat all of the proposed lots comply with the R-15 dimensional standards.
Street Network: The Bienville Square Subdivision was approved with both public and private
streets. The single family homes will take access from an existing private alley and an existing
private street, N. Cajun Lane. Under the UDC, single family dwellings are allowed to take access
from private streets when the plat is designed with a common mew. Since the proposed
development incorporates the common mew and the internal street connections have already been
approved and constructed, staff supports the connectivity as proposed.
Several of the lots (Lots 37-44, Block 3) will take access from common driveways reducing
the number of driveways to the abutting roadway to ensure vehicles are not backing out
into the N. Cajun Lane intersection and round-about. With a final plat application, the
applicant must depict the common drive easements on the face of the plat or plat the
common driveways as 20-foot wide common lots in accord with the standards set forth in
UDC 11-6C-3D.
Open Space/Amenities: Currently this property is developed with a 37,250 square foot common
lot and a tot lot as allowed under the recorded DA. This provision also allows the open space to
be relocated on the site once development is proposed if an equal amount of open space is being
provided. Staff has reviewed the submitted landscape plan for conformance with these
requirements. The primary open space for the development consists of a 38,996 square foot mew
lot. The primary amenities will be several sitting benches, walking paths, a tot lot, and a gazebo.
Since the proposed open space and site amenities exceed the requirements of the recorded DA
and the UDC, staff is supportive of the open space and site amenities.
The applicant has also submitted a detail of the landscaping proposed for the buildable lots.
The UDC does not regulate landscaping on single family lots however; staff is of the opinion
that similar planter beds should be incorporated along the front porches of the residential
units to delineate the private porches from the common open space.
Further, the entire residential units front on the mew lot without pedestrian connections to
the main entries of the residential units. With the future CZC and DES application
submittal the applicant should submit a revised landscape plan that incorporates the
planter beds in front of the porches. With the final plat submittal, the revised landscape
plan should include the pedestrian connections from the main entries of the units to the
sidewalks within the mew lot.
Other Landscape Requirements:
a. The micropath between Lots 8 and 9, Block 3 must be installed in accord with UDC 11-
3A-8 and UDC 11-3B-12.
b. All proposed fencing must be installed in accord with UDC I 1-3A-7.
Existing Irrigation Easement: As mentioned above, this property is bifurcated by an existing
20-foot wide Apeman Lateral User's Association easement. Currently, Lot 2, Lots 9-11 and Lots
32-35, Block 3 are encumbered by the easement. As part of the development, the applicant is
Centre Point Square PP-13-042; MDA-13-025 - 6 -
EXHIBIT A
proposing to re-route the underground irrigation pipe and establish a new 20-foot wide irrigation
easement. Prior to signature on the final plat, the applicant must obtain approval of a vacation
application to remove the existing irrigation easement from the affected lots.
Building Elevations: Sample building elevations have been submitted with the subject
applications and are meant to represent the design theme of the proposed development (see
Exhibit A.4). Since a development agreement modification is accompanying the preliminary plat,
staff believes the proposed elevations should be included in the amended development agreement
to ensure the project develops as proposed by the applicant. Staff supports the mix of materials
(e.g. stucco, wood siding, stone and brick accents, exposed timbers, mix of colors, decorative
trim, decorative corbels and a mix of metal and composite roofing and the mix of contemporary
and traditional designs of the homes. The design features include- the variations in the wall and
roof planes, front court yards, covered porches, and balanced fenestration. Staff is of the opinion
the future homes will complement the existing homes in the area and demonstrates high quality
materials.
However, staff has concerns the rear elevations of the homes that will front on N. Cajun
Lane (Lots 24-35 and Lots 42-44, Block 3) as these elevations will be visible from Eagle
Road. Although single family homes are not required to obtain design review approval, the
Meridian Design Manual encourages similar building materials and mix of materials be
incorporated into all sides of the future homes, specifically, for those facades that face a
public street and common open space. The applicant should keep this in mind when
designing homes adjacent to the aforementioned roadway. Prior to the issuance of a
building permit, staff will review all home elevations as described above to ensure
conformance with these design features. A recommended provision of the DA requires all
future single family homes obtain certificate of zoning compliance and administrative
design review approval.
Based on the analysis above, staff finds the proposed plat complies with the Comprehensive Plan
and the requirements of the UDC through the conditions and recommends approval of the
proposed plat.

development;
The Council rely upon comments from the public service providers (i.e., police, fire,
ACHD, etc.) to determine this finding.
E. The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or general
welfare; and
The Council is not aware of any health, safety or environmental problems associated with
the development of the subdivision. ACRD considers road safety issues in their analysis.
The Council referenced all public testimony that was presented to determine whether or
not the proposed subdivision may cause health, safety or environmental problems.
F. The development preserves significant natural, scenic or historic features.
The Council is unaware of any natural, scenic or historic features on this site. Therefore,
the Council finds that the proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss or
