LETTERS FROM THE PUBLIC: See "Public Hearing of the Commission" below. P. APPLICANT'S REQUEST FOR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT: The staff report for CPA-I-04 (Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Residential Two to Mixed Use) is incorporated herein by reference. STAFF ANALYSIS PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT: A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL: . The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map currently designates this site as Residential Two (up to two dwelling units per acre). Chapter 1 - Overview 1.3 The City of Eagle Vision Statement In 1999, City of Eagle citizens envision their future town as a well-planned community that encourages diversified living and housing opportunities, economic vitality that offers jobs for residents, and places for people to recreate and enjoy Eagle's natural beauty. a. known as a highly livable town that successfully balances many of the rural elements of its heritage with growth; f. an economically strong city, that fosters local businesses and clean industry. Page 3 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc Chapter 3 - Population 3.3 Goal To promote a high quality of life and livability in the community. 3.4 Objective To plan for anticipated populations and households that the community can support with adequate services and amenities. 3.5 Implementation Strategy Monitor population growth and employment data to detect significant trends that will affect the Comprehensive Plan goals, objectives and policies. Chapter 5 - Economic Development 5.1 Background The economic development component of the Comprehensive Plan discusses the economics and employment in Eagle. The city encourages appropriate economic development while retaining those attributes that give Eagle its special living and working environment. 5.5 Implementation Strategies f. New commercial development outside of the Central Business District should complement the Central Business District and Eagle's rural residential identity. Chapter 6 - Land Use 6.1 Background and Existing Conditions Managing growth and channeling it into orderly community development is the key element of land use planning. Unplanned growth results in undesirable land use patterns. Areas within the City and within the Impact Area are given land use designations which are depicted on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, hereinafter referred to as the "Land Use Map". The Land Use Map is an integral part of the Comprehensive Plan. It serves as a planning policy document and planning tool that will assist the City in sustaining responsible growth and development to ensure that evolving land use patterns remain consistent with goals, objectives and strategies of the Plan. Page 4 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc 6.2 Land Use Designations Mixed Use Suitable primarily for a variety of uses such as limited office, limited commercial, and residential developments. Uses should complement uses within the Central Business District (CBD). Development within this land use designation should be required to proceed through the PUD and/or Development Agreement process. Residential density of up to twenty dwelling units per gross acre may be considered by the City for this area. 6.7 Implementation Strategies b. Establish land use patterns and zoning districts that do not exhaust available services such as sewer, water, police, flIe, recreational areas, highways and transportation systems. Chapter 8 - Transportation 8.1 Background Transportation planning and land use planning should be compatible with Eagle's transportation system and should take into account projected land use as depicted on the Eagle Land Use Map. The City's existing network of roadways represents only a portion of the system needed to serve future growth and development. As the City continues to experience growth, population will increase and the number of vehicles using the transportation system will increase. In addition to adding new streets and roadways, modifications and extensions to the existing routes will be necessary in order to create a fully integrated, modern, efficient transportation system that will effectively serve the residents of the City, the business community and the traveling public. 8.2.1 Principal Arterial Mobility Function: The primary function of a principal arterial is to provide major circulation and movement through urban areas and to connect with major activity centers and freeways. A principal arterial may serve motorized and non- motorized transportation needs and may include up to seven vehicular traffic lanes. Access Function: Access from other roadways is controlled and subordinate to traffic on the principal arterial street. Direct lot access is typically prohibited or severely restricted. Page 5 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc B. 8.6 Implementation Strategies c. Encourage roadway design standards that are consistent with the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD), Ada County Highway District (ACHD), Ada Planning Association (AP A), and other agencies that may be responsible for roadway planning and design. ZONING ORDINANCE PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL: . ECC Section 8-ZA-6 (A)(l) Site Design Objectives: The site plan design shall minimize impact of traffic on adjacent streets, provide for the pedestrian, and provide appropriate, safe parking lot design. Special review items should include: a. The functional relationship of the structures and the site in relation to its surroundings; b. The impact and effect of the site development plan on traffic conditions on contiguous streets and adjoining properties or neighborhoods; c. The site layout with respect to separation or integration of vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle traffic patterns; d. The arrangement and adequacy of off street parking facilities relative to access points, building location and total site development to prevent traffic conflict or congestion; e. The location, arrangement and dimensions of truck loading ramps, docks, and bays and vehicle service facilities; f. The access, parking lot, and interior roadway illumination plans and hours of operation; g. The required driver, pedestrian and bicycle sight distance requirements of the project and their relationship to adjacent streets, driveways and properties; h. The coordination of the site development with planned right of way alignments, acquisitions and street improvements; i. The graphic delineation of traffic circulation patterns to avoid confusion, congestion and conflicts; j. The continued maintenance of traffic, parking and lighting systems; k. The protection of views and vistas in relation to urban design and aesthetic considerations; . ECC Section 8-3-3 (D) Side And Rear Yards For Nonresidential Uses Abutting Residential Districts: Nonresidential buildings or uses shall not be located nor conducted closer than forty feet (40') to any lot line of a residential district; except that the minimum yard requirements may be reduced to fifty percent (SO%) of the requirement if acceptable landscaping or screening approved by the council is provided. Such screening shall be a masonry or solid fence between four (4) and eight feet (8') in height, maintained in good condition and free of all advertising or other signs. Landscaping provided in lieu of such wall or fence shall consist of a strip of land not less than twenty feet (20') in width planted with an evergreen hedge or dense planting of evergreen shrubs not less than four feet (4') in height at the time of planting. Page 6 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc c. DISCUSSION: . The subject property is currently zoned RUT (Ada County designation) and A-R with a Comprehensive Plan designation of Residential Two (up to two units per acre). The City recently approved the Laguna Pointe PUD (A-2-03/RZ-2-03/CU-5-03/PPUD-I-03/PP-3-03) which included a zoning designation of R-2-DA-P (Residential with development agreement and PUD) and R-E-DA-P (Residential-Estates with development agreement and PUD)for the entire property. The zone will change from RUT and A-R to R-2-DA-P and R-E-DA-P upon the adoption and publication of a rezone ordinance. The applicant has previously submitted a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone application (CPA-I-04 & RZ-I-04) to change the land use designation and zoning district on the western 9.31-acres of the Laguna Pointe PUD from Residential Two (approved for R-2 zoning district) to MU-DA (Mixed Use with development agreement). While the Comprehensive Plan Amendment application remains pending before the Planning and Zoning Commission for a recommendation (hearing scheduled for August 9, 2004), the applicant now desires to withdraw rezone application number RZ-I-04 and instead modify the development agreement previously approved through the Laguna Pointe PUD. With the review of this application in tandem with CPA-I-04, the City may determine that an MU-DA (Mixed-Use with development agreement) zoning designation for this site to allow a Mixed Use development with limited uses as defined in a development agreement is more appropriate than a standard R-2 zone as outlined within the City of Eagle Comprehensive Plan. To assure a compatible and cohesive development and to prevent undue damage to, and to otherwise be in harmony with the existing community, the specific uses for this site should be limited within a development agreement. . . The following conditions were approved by the Council to be placed within a development agreement on July 13,2004, as part of the Laguna Pointe PUD application: 1. The Concept Plan represents the Owner's current concept for completion of the project. As the Concept Plan evolves, the City understands and agrees that certain changes in that concept may occur. If the City determines that any such changes require additional public comment due to potential impacts on surrounding property or the community, a public hearing shall be held on any proposed change in the Concept Plan, notice shall be provided as may be required by the City. 2. The use of motorized watercraft on the waterways within the development shall be prohibited except that, if the City of Eagle modifies Eagle City Code prohibiting the use of motorized watercraft (such as to allow watercraft with electric motors, for instance), then any such permitted use will become a permitted use for the Laguna Pointe development. 3. The Owner shall submit a Design Review application for landscaping for the site (as required by the Eagle City Code), and shall comply with all conditions required by Eagle as a part of the Design Review. 4. The development shall comply with the Eagle City Code, as it exists in final form at the time an application is made and the conditions within this agreement shall be satisfied. 5. The applicant shall construct the Eagle Road access as proposed pursuant to current roadway engineering standards. . The applicant has submitted the following conditions to be placed within the modified development agreement with underlined text recommended to be added by staff and text Page 7 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc shown with strike-thru recommended to be deleted by staff: 2.6 The Mixed Use Area shall be permitted \!fHe a maximum of 20,000 square feet of Office-Medical/Dental/Professional building area and shall be permitted a maximum of 32,000 square feet of building area for those uses listed below. wHieR are a selectioB of some ef the f)eræi.tted and coRditiooal üses sf)eeified for tHe Mixed Use zoBiBg desigBatioß witHiB Eagle City Code Sectieß g 2 3: The following Mixed Use uses shown as permitted and conditional uses in Eagle City Code shall be the only uses permitted for this Property: Artist studios Arts and crafts shows Bar (must be upscale in nature) Beauty/barber shop Bed and breakfast facility Catering service Club or lodge Childcare Family Childcare Group Farmer's market Food and beverage sales (This use is to be small scale for shops along the Boardwalk area) Health clubs, spas, weight reduction salons Home and business services Horticulture (limited) Home occupation Indoor / outdoor commercial entertainment facilities and live entertainment events To clarify, a concert house and/or large-scale concerts shall be prohibited.

Staff note: Site specific condition of approval No. 45 of the Laguna Pointe PUD requires a one hundred-foot (100') wide landscape common area (not including right-of-way) along the portion of the property adjacent to Eagle Road. It is staffs opinion that because this is a condition of the PUD and not the rezone (nor the development agreement), this proposed modified condition to the development agreement cannot change the conditions of approval for a PUD, they are technically separate. 2.8 Building placement shall be designed such that parking areas are not concentrated between the buildings and Eagle Road. The side of any buildings facing Eagle Road shall be provided with architectural design elements and architectural relief. 2.9 All buildings shall be designed in compliance with Eagle City Code Section 8-2A. Permitted architecture styles are specifically those shown within the Eagle Architecture and Site Design Book (EASD Book). Architecture styles and building design elements that are not shown with the EASD Book will not be permitted. STAFF RECOMMENDATION PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT: Based upon the information provided to staff to date, staff recommends approval of the requested rezone and modification to the development agreement with the staff recommended changes as noted in the staff report. PUBLIC HEARING OF THE COMMISSION: A. A public hearing on the applications was held before the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 2,2004, at which time testimony was taken and the public hearing was continued to August 16, 2004, and September 7, 2004, wherein the public hearing was closed. The Commission made their recommendation at that time. B. Oral testimony in opposition to this proposal was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by six (6) individuals who felt that the area should remain residential in nature since it is not compatible with existing and proposed uses on the properties surrounding the site, that the potential for noise from a commercial use may disturb abutting residential uses, there are safety issues relating to access onto Eagle Road, and that a restaurant is not appropriate for the area. C. Oral testimony in favor of this proposal was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by one (1) individual (other than the applicants/representatives) who felt that the mixed use classification is appropriate for the land adjacent to Eagle Road. D. Oral testimony neither in favor of nor opposed to this proposal was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by one (1) individual who did not have a concern with a mixed use concept for this area but wanted to be involved to see what the development will look like in order to confirm that initial concerns of traffic and noise are appropriately addressed. E. A letter was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission on behalf of the property developer to the south of this parcel which stated opposition to placing commercial uses between two residential Page 9 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc properties, the need for a proportionate mix of commercial uses and residential uses compared to that of the proposed development south of the subject site, and that the location of uses should be placed in a manner which will cause the least amount of conflicts with abutting uses. COMMISSION DECISION: The Commission voted 4 to 0 (Marks absent) to recommend approval of RZ-2-03 MOD for a rezone and a modification to the devèlopment agreement for Laguna Pointe planned unit development with the following staff recommended conditions to be included within the development agreement with underline text to be added by the Commission and strikethrough text to be deleted by the Commission: 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 2.6 The Concept Plan represents the Owner's current concept for completion of the project.

Notice of Public Hearing on the application for the Eagle Planning and Zoning Commission was published in accordance for requirements of Title 67, Chapter 65, Idaho Code and the Eagle City ordinances on July 17, 2004. Notice of this public hearing was mailed to property owners within three-hundred feet (300-feet) of the subject property in accordance with the requirements of Title 67, Chapter 65, Idaho Code and Eagle City Code on July 16,2004. Requests for agencies' reviews were transmitted on July 16,2004, in accordance with the requirements of the Eagle City Code. 3. The Commission reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed rezone upon annexation (RZ-2-03 MOD) with regard to Eagle City Code Section 8-7-5 "Action by the Commission and Council", and based upon the information provided concludes that the proposed rezone upon annexation is in accordance with the City of Eagle Comprehensive Plan and established goals and objectives because: a. The requested zoning designations of MU-DA (Mixed Use with Development Agreement) is in accordance with the Mixed Use classification in accordance with the recommended Comprehensive Land Use Map designation of Mixed Use approved by the Commission on August 10, 2004 (CPA-I-04); b. The information provided from the agencies having jurisdiction over the public facilities needed for this site indicate that adequate public facilities exist, or are Page 12 of 13 K:\Planning Dept\Eagie Applications\SUBS\2003\Laguna Pointe POD RZ MOD pzf.doc required to be provided, to serve commercial uses on this property under the proposed zone; c. The proposed MU-DA (Mixed Use with Development Agreement) zoning district is compatible with the R-2-P (Residential up to two units per acre PUD) to the north since the Boise River existing trees along the northern boundary of this site will provide a natural buffer, and the location of buildings proposed for this site will be required to be setback a minimum of SO-feet from the property line to provide additional area for landscape buffering; d. The proposed MU-DA (Mixed Use with Development Agreement) zoning district is compatible with the R-2-DA-P (Residential up to two units per acre with development agreement and PUD) and R-E-DA-P (Residential Estates up to one dwelling unit per two acres with development agreement and PUD) zones to the east since this development is required to be constructed with buildings that are to have landscaping that screens the buildings from residential uses, and any activities in the Mixed Use area will be subject to noise restrictions as required in Eagle City Code and within the CC&Rs of the development; e. The proposed MU-DA (Mixed Use with Development Agreement) zoning district is compatible with the zoning district approved for Mixed Use to the south since that area has been preliminarily approved to develop a mix of commercial and residential uses with similar uses and densities to the uses proposed with this development, and existing trees along the southern boundary of this site will provide a natural buffer to the proposed uses within the area to the south; f. The proposed MU-DA (Mixed Use with Development Agreement) zoning district is compatible with Eagle Road to the west since this development is required to provide a landscaped area abutting the east side of Eagle Road and, in conjunction with the commercial buildings and interior landscaping, will act as a buffer to mitigate traffic noise upon the residential uses east of the subject area; g. While the land proposed for rezone is located within a "Hazard Area" or "Special Area" as described within the Comprehensive Plan, this development will be required to comply with all the applicable City of Eagle ordinances regarding construction in the floodplain, and preservation of the lands within the floodway as conditioned by the agencies having jurisdiction over the Boise River Floodplain. h. No non-conforming uses are expected to be created with this rezone. DATED this 1st day of November 2004. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF EAGLE A a ou Idaho ATTEST: ~ ~~~~ SharonX.
