screen parking areas(chainlink fencing shall not be permitted). In the design of large
parking areas, arrange bays of parking spaces to be separated by landscaping. When
parking lots occur on sloping terrain, step the parking lots to follow the terrain rather than
allowing the lot surface to extend above natural grade.
2. Parking Lot Landscape Strip: A landscape strip shall be provided when a parking lot is
located adjacent to a public right of way. The landscaped strip shall serve to shield views
of parked cars to passing motorists and pedestrians,and to establish coordination among
architecturally diverse buildings,which creates a pleasing,harmonious appearance along
the roadway.
Page 11 of 35
KAPlanning DeptTagle Applications\Dr\1995\DR-14-95 MOD2 Change of Use includ.Site and Bldg Mod drf.docx
Four(4)options are provided for fulfilling this requirement:

concrete along with a four foot(4')wide landscaped strip between the right of way and
the parking lot,and plant a minimum of one shade tree and five(5)shrubs per thirty
five(35) linear feet of frontage, excluding driveway openings.
(1)The board may waive the requirement for a wood, brick, stone,decorative block
or concrete fence if the board finds the following:
(A)The applicant must design,document, and obtain city approval representing
that the overall planting design, at the time of planting,results in an effective
barrier such that the landscape strip shields the view of parked cars from
passing pedestrians and motorists; and
(B)Any such proposed design alternative is compatible with the overall site design
of the entire project and is compatible with the surrounding area.
3. Parking Lot Perimeter Landscaping: Perimeter landscaping requirements define parking
areas and prevent two(2)adjacent lots from becoming one large expanse of paving. This
requirement does not hinder the ability to provide vehicular access between lots.
a. Provide a minimum five foot(5')wide perimeter landscaped strip between the property
lines and the parking lot,and plant with a minimum of one shade tree and five(5)
shrubs per thirty five(35) linear feet of perimeter.

O. Alternative Methods Of Compliance:
1. Project Conditions: It is not the intent of these landscape requirements to inhibit creative
solutions to land use problems.Under certain site conditions,a strict interpretation of
requirements may be either physically impossible or impractical. Alternative compliance is
a procedure that allows certain modifications to existing regulations within this section.
Page 13 of 35
KAPlanning DeptTagle Applications\Dr\1995\DR-14-95 MOD2 Change of Use includ.Site and Bldg Mod drEdcex
Requests for use of alternative landscaping schemes are justified only when one or more of
the following conditions apply:
a. The sites involve space limitations or unusually shaped parcels;
b. Topography, soil,vegetation,or other site conditions are such that full compliance is
impossible or impractical;
c. Due to a change of use of an existing site,the required buffer yard is larger than can be
provided; and
d. Safety considerations are involved.
2. Request For Alternative Method Of Compliance: The applicant must provide the city with a
written request if an alternative method of compliance is proposed. The request shall state
which requirement as set forth within this section is to be modified, what project conditions
stated within subsection 01 of this section justify using the proposed alternative,and how
the proposed alternative equals or exceeds said requirement.
3. Tree Fund: Persons applying for an alternative method of compliance for relief from
regulations that require all existing trees to remain on site may elect to make a financial
contribution to the Eagle city tree fund in lieu of retaining all trees on site. The condition(s)
which warrants the need for the tree fund alternate method of compliance shall be specified
in the application submitted under subsection 02 of this section. If the application is
approved,the amount to be contributed by the applicant will be based upon the total caliper
inches of deciduous tree(s)removed from the site and the total vertical feet of coniferous
trees removed from the site. Cost per caliper inch for deciduous trees and cost per vertical
foot for coniferous trees shall be determined by resolution of the city council. The applicant
shall have the right to review and consider the value determination,and following said
review,to reapply for other alternative methods of compliance,without prejudice, in
accordance with subsection 02 of this section.
P. Plan Preparation: Preparing a landscape plan requires special skills. Landscaping involves
more than a simple arrangement of plants with irrigation; plants are not haphazardly placed in
away that fills up leftover space.Landscape plans should reflect a theme so that site elements
are artfully and technically organized in a way that conveys meaning,coherence,and spatial
organization. Landscaping should enhance the physical environment as well as the project's
aesthetic character. Therefore, landscape plans to be submitted for approval shall be prepared
by or under the responsible control of a licensed landscape architect with said plans to be
duly stamped to clearly identify the preparer.

council.
C. DISCUSSION:
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-3 states, "...in order to foster rehabilitation of older districts and
comply with unforeseen future needs of the overlay districts,the City Council may,at their
discretion, suspend or relax some or all requirements found in this article if the City Council
determines a particular site, setting,or use to have special and/or unique circumstances to warrant
an exception to the requirements."The discussion items below identify code provisions that the
applicant is requesting City Council approval of an exception(via the discretion provided in ECC
Section 8-2A-3).
• The applicant is requesting design review approval to expand the office use(an additional 3,000-
square feet)associated with the commercial wholesaling/warehousing and storage use. The
applicant's justification letter states that original building was built before the City of Eagle
adopted a design review ordinance and the warehouse(back portion of the building)was built
after receiving design review approval on October 24, 1995 (DR-14-95). The existing building
has metal siding and a single ply membrane roof.The applicant is proposing to paint the building,
add metal awnings over some windows and doors,and add two metal trellises on the
northernmost building elevation. The existing building,with proposed modifications,does not
comply with the architectural requirements identified within the Eagle Architecture and Site
Design book.The justification letter states that the design elements proposed will significantly
enhance the character appearance of the subject property. Staff defers comment regarding the
exterior building modifications,design and colors to the Design Review Board.
• The site has an existing parking area west and north of the building located at 1345 East State
Street. The parking lot located at 1341 East State Street was previously constructed without
design review approval nor approval from the City Engineer.It is unclear how the site grading
and drainage for both existing parking lots for 1345 East State Street and 1341 East State Street
have been completed. The applicant should be required to provide a detailed site grading and
drainage plan prepared by a registered professional engineer(PE)or licensed landscape architect
(ASLA). The detailed site and drainage plan should be reviewed and approved by the City
Engineer prior to issuance of a zoning certificate. In accordance with Eagle City Code Section 8-
2A-10(C),a certificate of completion should be provided to the City for completion of the
parking area prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
• The site has existing above ground power lines and power poles north of the building and on/or
adjacent to the site. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-6(A)(5),all utilities are required to
be buried underground. The applicant should be required to provide a revised site plan identifying
the locations of all above ground utilities located on the site or adjacent to the site(north of the
site within the ACRD right-of-way)with a note that all above ground utilities, poles,power lines,
etc. will be buried or removed. The revised site plan should be reviewed and approved by staff
prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The site plan does not identify a historic streetlight adjacent to East State Street. Pursuant to
Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-6(G),a City approved streetlight is required every 300-feet. The
Page 19 of 35
KAPlanning DeptTagle Applications\Dr\I995\DR-14-95 MOD2 Change of Use includ.Site and Bldg Mod dddocx
applicant should be required to provide a revised site plan showing the location of a historic
streetlight adjacent to East State Street and provide a detail of the pole, lamp, and illumination
type to be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to
the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(K)(3)(a) requires a 5-foot wide perimeter landscape strip
between the property lines and the parking lot with a minimum of one shade tree and five shrubs
per 35-linear feet of perimeter. The landscape plan identifies 40-American Arborvitae proposed
to be planted along the west property line. It is unclear if the applicant is intending for the
American Arborvitae to be considered a shrub or a tree. The planting size proposed identified on
the landscape plan is 5-feet to 6-feet tall. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(E),the
minimum planting size for evergreen trees is 6-feet to 7-feet tall. The length of the west property
line is 314-feet. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(K)(3)(a), 9-trees and 45-shrubs are
required. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan showing 9-trees
(spaced a maximum of 35-feet apart)and 45-shrubs planted within the 5-foot wide landscape
buffer between the parking lot and west property line. The planting size of the American
Arborvitae is required to be a minimum of 6-feet tall for each one being counted towards required
trees. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff prior to the issuance
of a zoning certificate.

• The plant schedule on the landscape plan identifies two types of deciduous trees proposed on the
site. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(F)(1), if 21-30 trees are required on the site,
then a minimum of three tree species is required. The applicant should be required to provide a
revised landscape plan identifying a minimum of three different tree species to be planted
throughout the site. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one
member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The site plan identifies parking spaces located adjacent to the north property line(1341 East State
Street)which is adjacent to a residential use.No landscape buffer is proposed on the north
property line. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(J)(2)(b), a parking lot that abuts a
residential activity requires a 5-foot wide by 6-foot high landscape buffer. In addition, Eagle City
Code Section 8-2A-7(K)(3)(a)states that all buffer areas shall be comprised of, but not limited to,
Page 20 of 35
K\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr\1995\DR-14-95 MOD2 Change of Use includ.Site and Bldg Mod drfdocx
a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubs, and ground cover with a minimum of 60-percent
of the total plant material used to be evergreen plant material. The applicant should be required to
provide a revised landscape plan showing a 5-foot wide by 6-foot high landscape buffer on the
north property line planted with a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubs, and ground cover
(60% minimum evergreen plant material). The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and
approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning
certificate.

• The site plan identifies a trash enclosure proposed to be located near the southwest corner of the
building. The landscape plan does not identify the trash enclosure location nor the required
landscaping around it. Staff completed a site visit on December 31, 2019, where it was noted that
the site currently has two trash bins and two trash totes located on the west side of the building.
Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(J)(2)(c), outdoor trash receptables are required to be
concealed and screened with a 5-foot wide by 6-foot high landscape buffer. The applicant should
be required to provide a revised landscape plan showing a 5-foot wide by 6-foot high landscape
buffer around the trash enclosure. The applicant should ensure all trash bins/totes are located
within the trash enclosure. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff
and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.

• The site plan identifies parking spaces along the south property line of both properties. The
landscape plan shows gravel ground cover and four shade trees proposed between the parking lot
and south property line. Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(K)(3)(a), requires a minimum 5-foot
wide perimeter landscape strip between the property line and the parking lot to be planted with
one shade tree and five shrubs per 35-linear feet of perimeter. The length of the parking lot
adjacent to the south property line is 185-feet(1345 East State Street)and 113-feet(1341 East
State Street)which requires 6-shade trees and 27-shrubs(1345 East State Street)and 4-shade

The applicant should be required to provide a revised site and landscape plan showing terminal
islands at the end of all parking rows and meeting the requirements of Eagle City Code Section 8-
2A-7(k)(4)(b)(1-5). The revised site and landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff
and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• Several years ago, curb, gutter, and a separated 5-foot wide sidewalk was constructed adjacent to
East State Street by ACHD. The drainage constructed with that project consisted of swales
located between the sidewalk and the back of curb and was finished with sand in the bottom with
large cobblestones on the edges of the swales. While the completion of the sidewalk is a benefit
to the pedestrians,the design of the streetscape does not comply with the City of Eagle
streetscape requirements. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(M), sidewalks are to be
separated 8-feet from the curb along all streets and planted with street trees every 35-feet.
Pursuant to past action by the Eagle Design Review Board with similar applications in the
immediate area, street trees were permitted to be located on the back side of the separated
sidewalk and the cobblestones within the drainage swale were required to be removed and
replaced with sod. The applicant should be required to provide a revised site and landscape plan
showing the cobblestones located within the drainage area to be removed and replaced with sod
in compliance with ACHD standards. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and
approved by staff prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The applicant has submitted an alternate method of compliance application to request the
landscaping on the site not be required to meet Eagle City Code due to the topography, soil,
vegetation, or other site conditions such that full compliance is impossible or impractical. The
application states that the applicant is proposing landscaping on the west property line and
retaining the landscaping along East State Street. The application states that the existing building
was built before the design review ordinance existed,the existing parking area is for employees
only and full compliance would be impractical and not benefit the public. Staff defers comment
regarding the alternate method of compliance request to the Design Review Board.

• Staff completed a site visit on December 31,2019, and noted that the site plan, landscape plan,
and existing site landscaping, location of utilities, etc. do not match. The applicant should be
required provide a revised site and landscape plan identifying the existing landscaping, paved
areas, gravel areas, ground mounted mechanical units, utilities, power poles, etc. The revised site
and landscape plan should be reviewed by staff and two members of the Design Review Board
prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The landscape plan submitted is not prepared by or stamped by a licensed landscape architect.
Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(P), landscape plans are required to be prepared by or
under the responsible control of a licensed landscape architect. The applicant should be required
to provide a revised landscape plan that is stamped by a licensed landscape architect. The revised
landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff prior to the issuance of a zoning
certificate.
The discussion items below identify code provisions that are not located within ECC Section 8-2A;
therefore, ECC Section 8-2A-3 regarding exceptions does not apply.
• A site and building lighting plan were not submitted with this application for lighting on the
building or lighting for the parking areas. Staff completed a site visit on December 31, 2019 and
noted there are existing building wall lights that do not comply with Eagle City Code Section 8-4-
4-2. In addition, all parking areas are required to be illuminated. The applicant should be required
to provide a site and building lighting plan and detailed lighting cutsheets for all site and building
lighting. The site and building lighting plan and detailed lighting cutsheets should be reviewed
and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a
zoning certificate.
• The site plan identifies a 19-foot wide drive aisle between the parking lot/building and east
property line. Eagle City Code Section 8-4-4-2(F), states that the width of a drive aisle for 90-
degree parking spaces is 24-feet. In the event the Board determines that construction of a 24-foot
drive aisle in this location is infeasible,then the applicant should be required provide a revised
site plan showing markings and/or signage to be installed indicating the drive aisle adjacent to the
east property line to be a one-way entrance traveling south and exiting on the west side of the
building. The revised site plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the
Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.

the Eagle Comprehensive Plan.
2. The Board reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of the proposed design review in terms of
Eagle City Code 8-2A-13, "General Standards For Design Review" and has concluded that the
proposed design review:
A. Will function in conformance with the applicable strategies of the Eagle Comprehensive Plan and
is in accordance with the regulations of this code since there are no inconsistencies with the
comprehensive plan and a change of use for a portion of the building from commercial
wholesaling/warehousing and storage to office with the approval of a design review application
within the M-1 (Light Industrial District)zoning district;
B. Is of a scale, intensity, and character that is in harmony with existing conforming and planned
development in the vicinity of the site since the proposed common area landscaping is designed to
complement the general vicinity since the proposed modifications to the existing building will
complement the buildings in the vicinity;
C. Is designed with adequate off street parking facilities in such a way as to not interfere with
ingress/egress to the site and will serve the intended use so as to not cause conflict with adjacent
uses as anticipated within the zoning district since the site has parking on-site that exceeds the
required parking required;
D. Will not interfere with the visual character,quality,or appearance of the surrounding area and city,
and where possible,enhance the continuity of thematically common architectural features since the
modifications to the existing building will complement the general vicinity;

viewed alone as well as in relationship to surrounding buildings and settings since the modifications
to the existing building will complement the buildings in the vicinity;
F. Will not obstruct views and vistas as they pertain to the urban environment and in relation to artistic
considerations since the existing building is in conformance with the required setbacks and height
restrictions;
G. Will provide safe and convenient access to the property for both vehicles and pedestrians through
patterned traffic circulation and connectivity to abutting development since the site has existing
parking areas and an existing sidewalk along East State Street which provides access to the site;
