complete description of site specific uses.
B. PRE ANNEXATION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT PROVISIONS, WHICH ARE OF
SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL:
3.2 All development of the Property shall comply with Eagle City Code Section 8-2A (Design
Review), and be generally consistent with the Concept Plan, provided, however, it is the intent
of this Agreement to allow flexibility at the time a detailed plan and platting are submitted to
Eagle so long as the general intent of the Concept Plan and the requirements set forth in this
Agreement are met. If Applicant develops the Property prior to annexation under the
Page 5 of 19
K \Planning I )cpl\Faglc Appin.auona5Ur1201 R11)R- 15-1 S O'Rally's in EMIR pct duck
jurisdiction of Ada County, the Applicant shall apply for Design Review approval in Eagle and
the County shall not issue a zoning certificate or building permit for the Project until Eagle has
provided the County with a letter of approval and/or conditions of approval for the Project
resulting from that Design Review approval.
3.9 All development of the Property shall be consistent with Landscape Guidelines, site Design
Guidelines, and Architectural Guidelines compiled in connection with the Eagle Design
Review Process, and shall be generally consistent with the Concept Plan, provided that the
development guidelines do not conflict with Section 3.2 of this Agreement. The Applicant
shall submit a Design Review site layout and landscape application for the site, and shall
comply with all conditions required by Eagle as part of Design Review prior to submittal of
final plat.
3.14 In addition to the sidewalks proposed around the perimeter of the development (see Concept
Plan), the applicant will design the proposed interior parking lot pathways (sidewalks) to
provide optimum pedestrian interconnectivity to all portions of the site which should reduce
the need to drive from store to store and should promote enhanced pedestrian movement within
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 concrete
sidewalks along Linder Road and Chinden Boulevard shall be a minimum of 6 -foot wide and
configured in a meandering pattern compliant with all ADA requirements.
3.15 The Applicant shall construct outdoor plaza areas in strategic locations within the development
and in front of the buildings to accommodate and facilitate gathering points for users of the
development. These plaza areas shall include items such as seating areas, art work, fountains,
landscaping, drinking fountains, bike racks, or similar features designed and displayed in a
manner that lends to establishing a common theme or identity to the development.
3.16 Due to the high visibility of the Chinden Boulevard and Linder Road intersection, special
attention shall be given to the configuration and position of the buildings abutting the
roadways. Buildings should be designed to be positioned at varied distances from the
abutting roadways to provide modulation, and building footprints and fenestrations are
encouraged to be irregular to inspire greater creative designs. All lots and buildings shall be
configured to screen any and all loading areas and trash enclosures from view as seen from
residential uses or public roadways. Building placement shall be designed such that parking
areas are not concentrated between the buildings and the abutting roadways. The parking
areas depicted on the Concept Plan are not considered to be concentrated between the
buildings and the abutting roadways. The side of any buildings facing the roadways shall be
provided with architectural design elements and architectural relief, as may be approved by
the Eagle Design Review Board.
3.17 All buildings shall be set back a minimum of 105 -feet from the centerline of Chinden
Boulevard to accommodate future corridor widening. Buildings shall be setback a minimum
of 25 -feet from the new right-of-way line on Linder Road to provide for landscaping and
potential roadway widening.
3.18 The development shall include buffers pursuant to Eagle City Code 8-3-3 D. All service
areas (loading bays, trash compactors, etc.) shall be designed to lessen impacts (noise, glare,
odors, etc.) upon adjacent residential uses. The storage of materials, packing supplies, and
merchandise is prohibited within the service -drive aisle and service areas. Tasteful displays
of merchandise may be permitted outdoors if approved through a development application.

D. DISCUSSION:
• The applicant is requesting design review approval to construct a 7,800 -square foot retail building
for O'Reilly Auto Parts to be located on Lot 8, Block 1, Lazy P Subdivision within the Eagle
Island Marketplace. The parking area for this lot, interior parking lot landscaping. and perimeter
landscaping were completed by the developer of Eagle Island Marketplace. The applicant
indicates the architectural style of the building is Mediterranean style, which is one of the nine
architectural styles identified within the EASD book. Staff is concerned that the building
elevations are lacking undulation, fenestrations, or decorative elements which would create
interest to the building. Staff defers comment regarding the building design and colors to the
Design Review Board.
• Smooth and split face concrete masonry unit (CMU) is proposed on the exterior of the building
and will be painted two different colors. Columns finished with smooth CMU and stone veneer
are proposed on all building elevations. The south and west building elevations are proposed to
have an EIFS band area where the building wall signage is to be located. Pursuant to Eagle City
Code 8-2A-5(B)(1)(g and i), smooth face block is permitted for accent only. Ten (10) percent
maximum wall coverage (per each facade) is permitted. EIFS is permitted as an accent only with
a maximum of ten percent (10%) wall coverage (per facade). The elevation plans, date stamped
by the City on March 22, 2018, show the following percentages of smooth CMU and EIFS per
elevation:
Smooth CMU EIFS
West Elevation 27% 21%
South Elevation 17% 25%
East Elevation 36% 3%
North Elevation 26% 17%
The percentage of smooth CMU and EIFS proposed on all elevations of the building exceeds the
ten percent (10%) permitted within Eagle City Code, with the exception of the EIFS proposed on
the east building elevation. The applicant should be required to provide revised building
elevations showing the percentage of smooth CMU and EIFS does not exceed ten percent (10%)
on all building elevations. The revised building elevations should be reviewed and approved by
the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The elevation plan, date stamped by the City on March 22, 2018, shows an exterior access ladder
to be located on the east building elevation. Pursuant to past action by the Design Review Board
and City Council, all access ladders are to be located internal to the building so that the entire
ladder and handles are completely screened from view by the parapet walls. The applicant should
be required to provide revised building elevations showing the external access ladder removed
Page 9 of 19
K:11'lanning [)cptlEaglc Applications1pr120181I)R-IS-18 O'Rcilly's in EIMI' ccl'.docx
from the east building elevation and located internal to the building. The revised building
elevations should be reviewed and approved by staff prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• Sheet CC2.1. date stamped by the City on March 22, 2018, shows a six foot (6') wide sidewalk to
be located along the west elevation of the building providing a pedestrian connection from the
east/west sidewalk located south of the main east/west access drive of Eagle island Marketplace.
Condition 3.14 of the development agreement states, "In addition to the sidewalks proposed
around the perimeter of the development (see Concept Plan), the applicant will design the
proposed interior parking lot pathways (sidewalks) to provide optimum pedestrian
interconnectivity to all portions of the site which should reduce the need to drive from store to
store and should promote enhanced pedestrian movement within 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 concrete sidewalks along Linder Road and
Chinden Boulevard shall be a minimum of 6 -foot wide and configured in a meandering pattern
compliant with all ADA requirements." Condition 3.15 of the development agreement states,
"The Applicant shall construct outdoor plaza areas in strategic locations within the development
and in front of the buildings to accommodate and facilitate gathering points for users of the
development. These plaza areas shall include items such as seating areas, art work, fountains,
landscaping, drinking fountains, bike racks, or similar features designed and displayed in a
manner that lends to establishing a common theme or identity to the development."
Large sidewalks and plaza areas with trees in grates have been constructed in front of the retail
buildings throughout the development. Staff is concerned that only a six foot (6') wide sidewalk
is being proposed in front of this building and will become congested with handicap parking
signs, bollards, the columns of the building, and future trash receptacles that are typically placed
at the front of the store. The six foot (6') wide sidewalk does not provide adequate space for
benches or other pedestrian amenities that are required pursuant to the development agreement.
The applicant has the opportunity to provide a wider sidewalk at the front of the store if they
reduce the depth of the parking area that is located adjacent to the building. Pursuant to Eagle
City Code 8-4-4-2(F), the required length of a standard parking space is nineteen feet (19').
Sheet CC2.1 shows twenty-five feet (25') from the sidewalk to the drive aisle of the parking lot.
The applicant should be required to reduce the length of the parking area located adjacent to the
building in order to provide a wider sidewalk adjacent to the building. The sidewalk adjacent to
the building should be ten feet (10') in width minimum and should include trees in grates,
benches, etc. The applicant should be required to provide a revised site plan showing the width
of the sidewalk adjacent to the building to be a minimum of ten feet (10') and to include trees in
grates, benches, etc. 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 applicant is proposing to construct a sidewalk that connects the sidewalk adjacent to the west
building elevation to the sidewalk along Chinden Boulevard. The sidewalk is being proposed
within the area designated for the monument sign for this site. There is existing plant material in
the designated sign area that is not being shown as being retained or removed due to the
placement of the sidewalk. Staff recommends that if a sidewalk connection is proposed between
the building and the sidewalk adjacent to Chinden Boulevard that it not be located in the
designated sign area. Staff defers comment regarding the sidewalk connection between the
building and the sidewalk adjacent to Chinden Boulevard to the Design Review Board.
• The applicant is proposing to construct a new landscape island at the northwest corner of the
building providing a terminal island for the parking spaces located adjacent to the west side of the
building. The terminal island is shown to be three feet (3') in width and does not have a
deciduous tree proposed to be planted within it. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-
7(K)(b)(1 and 5), no planter is permitted to be less than five feet (5') and every terminal island for
a single row of parking spaces will be landscaped with a least one deciduous tree, shrubs, and
ground cover. The applicant should be required to provide a revised site and landscape plan
showing the terminal island located at the northwest corner of the building to be a minimum of
five feet (5') in width and to be planted with one deciduous tree, shrubs, and ground cover. The
revised site and landscape plans should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the
Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The developer of Eagle Island Marketplace constructed the parking lot, perimeter landscaping,
and interior parking lot landscaping. When this work was complete, a gravel space was left in the
southern terminus island of the double row of parking spaces for a future trash enclosure to be
constructed. The applicant is proposing and has received approval from Republic Services to
locate their trash enclosure on the north side of the building. The landscape plan, date stamped
by the City on March 22, 2018, does not show any additional plantings to be planted in the
southern terminus island where the gravel was provided for the future trash enclosure. The
applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan showing additional plant
material to be planted in the southern terminal island for the double row of parking spaces located
in the center of the parking lot. 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 applicant is proposing to remove two Zelkova trees from the site; one 4 -inch caliper tree and
one 5 -inch caliper tree. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -7(C)(1), the applicant is
required to replace 18 -inches of tree caliper on site. The applicant should be required to provide a
revised landscape plan showing 18 -inches of tree caliper planted on the site. The revised
landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and two members of the Design Review
Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• The landscape plan, date stamped by the City on March 22, 2018, shows eight (8) plants to be
planted at the base of the building. The plant schedule does not call out what these plants are to
Page 11 of 19

be. Since there are steel trellis' proposed on the east building elevation, one could assume they
are to be a plant that grows on the trellis. The steel trellis' are proposed to be mounted four and
one-half feet (4' ') above the ground. If the plant material proposed at the base of the trellis' is
supposed to grown on the trellis', the applicant should provide a plant that, at the time of planting,
reaches the trellis'. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan
identifying the plant species to be planted on the east building elevation and that the height of the
plant material, at the time of planting, will reach the trellis'. The revised landscape plan should
be reviewed and approved by staff and two members of the Design Review Board prior to the
issuance of a zoning certificate.

development in the vicinity of the site since the proposed building and landscaping is designed to
complement the general 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 meets the required parking for a retail
auto parts facility;
