D. DISCUSSION:
. On February 24, 2009, the Eagle City Council approved a Comprehensive Plan Map and Text
amendment, annexation (once contiguous) and a rezone with development agreement for this site
(CPA-05-08 & A-03-08 & RZ-08-08). Currently, this proposed development is not within the
City Limits of Eagle, nor is it contiguous at this time. However, City Staff anticipates annexation
and rezone applications for the properties east of this proposed development will be through the
City of Eagle review process by July or August. Thus this development will become contiguous to
the City Limits and will be annexed and rezoned per the comprehensive plan and the pre
annexation and development agreement. Per the pre annexation and development agreement for
this development, until this site becomes annexed into the City of Eagle, the applicant is to submit
and receive approval for the design and landscaping of any proposed building from the Eagle
Design Review Board and City Council prior to the City issuing a letter of approval and/or
conditions of approval for the application to Ada County.
. The applicant is proposing to construct a total of 366, 164-square feet of commercial buildings
within the Eagle Island Marketplace. The first phase of this development consist of installing the
perimeter landscaping along Chin den Boulevard and Linder Road, installing the parking lot with
associated landscaping for each pad site, constructing a 187,758-square foot Fred Meyer store and
constructing seven multi-tenant retail/restaurant buildings totaling 139,973-square feet. The seven
future pad sites, associated parking, and landscaping will be left vacant until development of those
particular pad sites are ready. The architectural styles of all the buildings proposed within this
application are a combination ofItalianate, Romanesque and Mediterranean. The materials and
Page 14 of23
K:lPlanning DeptlEagle ApplicationslDr\2009IDR-13-09 EIMP-Fred Meyer-8 pad sites drf.doc
colors proposed to be used in the construction of all the buildings blend very well and provide a
unified look throughout the development, while providing enough character for each building to
create individuality.
· A 173-square foot kiosk is proposed to be constructed with the Fred Meyer fuel center proposed
near the driveway entrance located on Chinden Boulevard. The kiosk is proposed to be
constructed ofCMU block and the colors of the block are to match the colors of the fuel island
canopy. It is staffs opinion that the architectural style of the building does not comply with one of
the architectural styles within the EASD book, nor does it complement the architectural style of the
proposed buildings within this application or within this development. The applicant should be
required to provide revised elevation plans showing the architectural style and materials to be used
in the construction of the fuel kiosk to match those used within the development and within the
EASD book. The revised elevations and materials should be reviewed and approved by staff and
one member of the Design Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
Sheet AI, date stamped by the City on April 9, 2009, shows vending machines, coolers, and ice
machines to be located around the perimeter of the fuel kiosk. Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-
6(A)(4)(e) states that the size, location, design, color, texture, lighting, landscaping, and hours of
operations of all permanent signs and outdoor advertising structures or features to ensure that any
such proposals do not detract from the function of, or design of, buildings, structures, surrounding
properties, neighborhoods, or streets are to be reviewed by the Board. It is staff s opinion that
these machines need to be located within the building or incorporated into the design of the
building. The applicant should be required to provide revised building elevations showing the
vending machines, coolers and ice machines to be designed and/or located in such a way to ensure
that they are cohesive with the function of the fuel kiosk. The revised elevation plans should be
reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the City
issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. Building Pad 13, proposed to be located in the southeast corner of the development, is shown to be
9,788-square feet. Per 3.26 of the pre annexation and development agreement, individual
buildings located in the south portion of the development along Chinden Boulevard shall not
exceed 9,600 square feet (as proposed on the site plan). Additional uses and expansion of
individual buildings may be permitted if a modification to this application is applied for and
approved by Eagle. The applicant should be required to provide revised elevation, floor, site, and
landscape plans showing the size of Pad 13 does not exceed 9,600-square feet. The revised
elevation, floor, site, and landscape plans should be reviewed and approved by staff and one
member of the Design Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. The applicant has shown the proposed building on Pad 13 to be located at the southeast corner of
the development. The proposed location of this building is placed where ITD has recommended
that a shared driveway to this site on Chinden Boulevard be situated. The applicant is aware that if
the recommendation by ITD to locate the driveway on Chinden Boulevard at the southeast corner
of this site is upheld that the design of the entire southeast corner of this development will have to
be modified. The applicant should be required to comply with ITD with regard to driveway
access, right-of-way dedication, and any other conditions required by lTD. If any conditions
placed on this development by ITD require the applicant to modify the site layout, a Design
Review Modification application should be submitted, reviewed and approved by the Design
Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for Pad 13.
. The ACHD provided a draft "Informational Report", date stamped by the City on May 5, 2009.
The ACHD has not completed a comprehensive review of the site development plan and request
that prior to the City issuing a building permit for this site that they have the opportunity to
complete a comprehensive review of this development which would include a revised traffic
Page 15 of23
K:lPlanning DeptlEagle ApplicationslDr\2009IDR-] 3-09 EIMP-Fred Meyer-8 pad sites drf.doc
impact study, site plan, and for the application to go through ACHD's Planning Review and
Commission Hearing process. The applicant should be required to comply with ACHD with
regard to driveway access, right-of-way dedication, impact fees, cross access, etc. A
Comprehensive review of this development should be completed by the ACHD prior to the City
issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. The landscape plans date stamped by the City on April 9, 2009, show a total of 1,618-parking
spaces to be constructed with this development at full build-out. Per Eagle City Code, with the
proposed uses submitted by the applicant, a total of 1 ,652-parking spaces would be required which
is 34-parking spaces less than what is required. There is a possibility that if the applicant reduced
the size of some of the buildings or reduced the amount of restaurant use proposed within this
development that they could be meet the parking required within Eagle City Code. The applicant
should be required to provide a revised site plan showing the size and used of buildings and
parking calculations showing that the site will accommodate the required parking required for the
proposed uses. The revised site plan and parking calculations should be reviewed and approved
by the Design Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. The landscape plans date stamped by the City on April 9, 2009, do not show the location of any
shopping cart storage racks to be located within the parking lot of the Fred Meyer site. Typically,
these racks end up being located in parking spaces throughout the parking lot of the Fred Meyers.
The applicant should be required to provide a revised site and parking lot plan showing the
location of shopping cart storage racks and how they will not take away from the overall parking
space count. The revised site and parking lot plan should be reviewed and approved by staff prior
to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. The landscape plans dated stamped by the City on April 9, 2009, do not show a trash enclosure to
be located near Pad 1. The closest trash enclosure to be constructed within this development is
proposed to be located on the east side of Pad 2, which is approximately 300-feet southeast of Pad
1. If this is the trash enclosure that Pad 1 is to use, staff recommends that a sidewalk connection
be made on the north side of Pad 2 to provide pedestrian connection to the sidewalk on the east
side of Pad 2. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan showing a
trash enclosure to be located near Pad 1 or provide a revised landscape plan showing a sidewalk
connection on the north side of Pad 2. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and
approved by staff prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. The landscape plan dated stamped by the City on April 9, 2009, does not show a trash enclosure
for Pads 14, 15, 16, and 17. The applicant should provide revised landscape plans showing where
trash enclosures for Pads 14, 15, 16, and 17 will be located or provide revised floor and elevation
plans showing how the enclosures will be located within the building. The revised landscape plan
or revised floor and elevation plans should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of
the Design Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. This proposed development is going to require significant right-of-way to be dedicated along both
Chinden Boulevard and Linder Road with acceleration and deceleration lanes to be constructed.
Currently, there are overhead power lines located along the frontage of Chinden Boulevard and
Linder Road that are going to need to be relocated. Therefore, staff recommends that the applicant
be required to located the overhead power lines along Chinden Boulevard and Linder Road
underground per Eagle City Code. The applicant should be required to provide a revised site and
landscape plans showing the overhead power lines to be located underground and show the
location of any proposed transformer boxes and how those will be screened with landscaping. The
revised site and landscape plans should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the
Design Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.

K:lPlanning DeptlEagle ApplicationslDr\2009IDR-13-09 EIMP-Fred Meyer-8 pad sites drf.doc
. The applicant is proposing to construct the entry feature at the southwest corner of this site at the
intersection of Chin den Boulevard and Linder Road. The sidewalk along Chinden Boulevard and
Linder, the landscape area proposed at the southwest corner, the trellis and sidewalk under the
trellis proposed in this area are all to be constructed with this phase of the development. The patio
area that will provide connection between Pads 7 and 8 is not proposed to be constructed with this
phase of the development. It is staffs opinion that a sidewalk connection between the sidewalk on
Chin den Boulevard and Linder Road be constructed to connect to the sidewalk that is proposed to
be constructed under the trellis area with this phase. The applicant should be required to provide a
revised landscape plan showing a sidewalk connection leading from Chinden Boulevard and from
Linder Road to the sidewalk proposed to be located under the trellis at the southwest corner of the
site. The revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff prior to the City
issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. Per the pre annexation and development agreement for this site, the applicant is to provide
pathways (sidewalks) to provide optimum pedestrian interconnectivity to all portions of the site.
The site is to be designed with shelters, kiosks, pergolas, etc. in strategic locations to provide
refuge and visual relief to pedestrians traversing the parking lot. The development agreement also
indicated that the concrete sidewalk along Linder Road is to be a minimum of 6-feet wide. While
staff thinks that the applicant has done a good job of creating pedestrian circulation throughout the
site and providing areas for the pedestrians to sit in front of the mid box retail buildings, Fred
Meyer and the "Life Style" buildings, staff does not see where pedestrian refuge has been provided
within the parking lot of the development. It is staffs opinion that at least four small
pergola/trellis type structures with benches could be located throughout the development along the
proposed pedestrian pathways. The applicant should be required to provide a minimum of four
pergola/trellis type structures with benches throughout the development along the proposed
pedestrian pathways. A site plan and elevation plan showing the location and type of structure
with proposed materials should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design
Review Board prior to the City issuing a zoning certificate for this site.
. Staff defers comment regarding building design and colors to the Design Review Board.
