1 Subdivision Staff Report Subdivision Name Honeymoon Cove Subdivision File Number SUB Approval Preliminary/ Final Plat Lead Agency Boise City Annexation Date December 30, 2004 Comp. Plan Complies Public Hearing Date April 7, 2008 Heard by Boise City Planning & Zoning Commission Analyst Joan Johnson Reviewed by David Abo, AICP Description: This is a proposed mixed use subdivision with six buildable lots on 5.0 acres. The subject property is currently zoned R-1C and contains one single family structure which will be removed. This subdivision is subject to approval of two companion applications that include a rezone request (CAR ) from R-1C to N-OD and a Conditional Use Permit application (CUP ) that will also be heard at the April 7, 2008 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. The proposal also includes a perpetual ingress/egress easement and cross parking easement intended to provide internal driveway access and parking to all of the buildable pad sites. This parcel was previously approved for 24 residential townhouses with Continuum Subdivision (CUP and SUB ). The property has changed ownership, resulting in the current mixed use proposal. Location: The site is located on the on the south side of West Overland Road, approximately ¼ mile east of Five Mile Road at W. Overland Road. Traffic Analysis: This development is estimated by ACHD to generate an additional 379 additional vehicle trips (10 existing) per day. The trip generation for Continuum Subdivision was 338 vehicle trips per day. Impacted Roadways: Roadway Frontage Functional Classification Traffic Count W.

3 Page 3 of 24 Basis for Recommendation The plat design and layout is in conformance with the Boise City Comprehensive Plan and complies with the basic requirements of the Boise City Subdivision and Zoning Ordinances. Staff is recommending the following special conditions of approval: Condition 1 Condition 2 Condition 3 This condition requires that the associated Rezone Application (CAR ) be approved by the Boise City Council prior to submittal of the Final Plat. The applicant is required to comply with all of the site specific conditions imposed by CUP , and a note shall be placed on the Final Plat. This condition addresses requirements for a perpetual ingress/egress access easement and cross parking easement. Condition 4 This condition addresses the removal/demolition of the existing structures located on the subject property. Condition 5 This condition addresses the perpetual ingress/egress turnaround easement for W. Southerland Street. Condition 6 This condition requires compliance with all requirements of the Boise Airport. Staff Perspective General The recommended conditions of approval are required to bring the proposed Preliminary Plat and Final Plat into compliance with Boise City and Idaho State Codes and have been confirmed by the Boise City Planning and Development Services Department. Boise City Staff has reviewed the agency comments and Staff recommends approval based upon Staff's finding that all concerns of the commenting agencies have been addressed. To avoid potential problems the developer is directed to review the concerns identified in the technical reviews to verify that this statement is correct. Street Connectivity The subject property is bordered on the east, west, and south by existing developed single family lots. The applicant is proposing to extend a foot wide permanent access easement and service drive with sidewalks from Overland Road that meanders through the property and aligns up with West Southerland Drive. This public street is stubbed into the subject property from the west; however the applicant is not proposing to construct any additional public rights-of-way. As the alternative, this project proposes a circuitous service drive that ultimately connects W. Southerland to Overland Road and discourages cut through traffic.

4 Page 4 of 24 There is no potential of further development occurring to the east as the adjacent property is developed with single family homes. This development is compatible with the neighborhood and will add additional office space and housing for the elderly within a new complex site of one story construction. The assisted living facility is intended to provide a specific housing type that is increasing in need in the area. The applicant is also proposing a future cross access connection to the office development abutting the site to the west. Each of the previous applications generated a substantial amount of public opposition. The property owners were opposed to the previous applications stating following concerns: the proposed density, cut through traffic, and two story townhouses adjacent to single family homes. Note on Street Connectivity vs. internal service drive associated with CUP Southerland Drive is currently stubbed to the southwestern corner of the property. Unlike past requests, the applicant is not proposing to extend this street through the site to Overland Road. Rather, the applicant is proposing a service drive through the site that will connect Southerland to Overland. A service drive would typically still allow vehicular connectivity through the development. However, the applicant has proposed to gate the drive in two locations, essentially prohibiting vehicular circulation through the property. Objective of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the completion of the existing street system, within reasonable constraints throughout the city. However, Policy strives to limit access to all arterial roadways, and Objective promotes land use decisions that limit access as necessary to maintain safe and efficient operation of the existing street system while allowing reasonable access to individual development parcels. Staff is supportive of the applicant s proposal to utilize a service drive in lieu of a public street. Objective promotes safe and comfortable neighborhoods by minimizing speeding and cutthrough traffic. More specifically, Policy encourages traffic calming methods that minimize adverse effects on adjacent streets. As designed, the service drive could provide for vehicular connectivity through the site, if the gates were removed. Staff has included a recommended condition of approval that requires public access be provided through the site, and that gates not be installed. The circuitous design of the service drive should discourage most of the cut through traffic through the site. With modifications to the fencing plan, a safe and secure environment can still be provided for the residents of the assisted living facility. The applicant is also proposing a future cross access connection to the office development west of the site, adjacent to Overland. Along with the service drive connection, a combination of attached and detached sidewalks is proposed within the project, and along Overland Road. Staff finds this to be an appropriate design solution, matching the existing walkways already located along Southerland. However, a detached walkway may be more appropriate along Overland Road. Staff has included a condition of approval requiring a detached sidewalk along this frontage. A walkway system along the face of future office buildings may be appropriate. As a result, staff recommends the final sidewalk design in this location be reviewed in the Design Review submittal. Sidewalk Design The subject property is improved with sidewalks on Overland Road. The applicant is proposing to construct a combination of attached and detached five foot wide sidewalks within the project on

5 Page 5 of 24 alternating sides of the meandering service drive that provide a safe pedestrian route within the planned unit development and connect with the public sidewalk network. None are known. Conditions in Dispute

6 Page 6 of 24 Technical Review and Agency Comments Boise City Planning and Development Services: Subdivision Section Joan Johnson, Staff has reviewed the Preliminary Plat and noted the subject site is under review for an N-OD Zoning District designation. There is a request for a Planned Unit Development under case number CUP Compliance with the zoning ordinance will be addressed through the Planned Unit Development process with the associated application. The lots are accessed via the service drive that is proposed to meander through the development from Southerland Drive to Overland Road. The location of the proposed use allows for compatible development with the general neighborhood. Comprehensive Planning Section Cody Riddle This project is located in the Southwest Planning Area with the following specific or applicable goals, objectives and policies in the Boise City Comprehensive Plan.
