PUBLIC HEARING An application for a Change in Land Use District from Limited Residential (R-2) to General Commercial (C-2) on approximately .4 acres of land. Subject property is in the NE % of Section 10, Township 6 South, Range 34 East of the Boise Meridian, Idaho, generally located at 224 E Linden Avenue, Chubbuck, Idaho. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area as Employment. Type of Action: Recommendation. (action Item) Item was presented by Devin Hillam, Community Planning and Economic Development Director, representing the City of Chubbuck and the Chubbuck Development Authority who jointly own the piece of property for the future Chubbuck City Hall. The petition before the Commission is to rezone approximately .4 acres which will be part of the larger downtown and City Hall area. Hillam reviewed the criteria in regards to the rezone; there are very few public subdivisions that would be effected, the City of Chubbuck being the largest as the applicant. Notices were sent to all other political agencies and no comments were received back. Proposal doesn't conflict with comprehensive plan. Staff report includes an analysis of goals, one of which is to direct urban growth to urban infill areas. Staff believes the area is ripe for infill in regards to the downtown plan. The rezone meets all other criteria. City staff will come before the Commission next month with a plat for the City Hall site. No questions from the Commission. Mendenhall opened the public hearing. No public comment. Mendenhall closed the public hearing bringing the meeting back to the Commission. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Schwartz moved to recommend approval of the application to change the land use designation from Limited Residential R-2 to General Commercial C-2 as requested. Holm seconded. With all Commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Mike Schwartz, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Brandon Jackson, Yes; Thais Ayre, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; TJ Budge, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes. Motion carried. An application for Conditional Use Permit for light manufacturing, assembly and retail use in a C-2 General Commercial Zone. The subject property is approx. 8.19 acres consisting of portions of Lot 1, Lot 2 and Lot 4 of Block 1 Pine Ridge Mall First Addition, Generally located at 4215 Yellowstone, Chubbuck, ID. Type of Action: Decision (action Item) TJ Budge, representing the applicant, ARX Ventures, LLC. The application is for a Conditional Use Permit for the Shopko building at the Pine Ridge Mall. Shopko and the mall are separate parcels of land under different ownership. Applicant proposes some minor modifications to the interior of the building but no changes to the exterior. There may be some improvements to the fagade at some point but no structural changes. Facility will be used for a light manufacturing/assembly process. The building will also have a retail store on site. The majority of assembled products will be shipped from the facility. The proposed facility will have employees involved in manufacturing, research and development, as well as managerial and administrative roles. The business produces no adverse side effects, no smell, no noise, and no byproducts or refuse. Vacant commercial buildings are bad for business. As consumer shopping habits changing, malls are finding ways to repurpose big box stores. The property is currently zoned General Commercial. Laboratory research and light manufacturing are allowed under a CUP. Budge reviewed the CUP criteria. • There are no residences within 300 feet. • Already designed for commercial traffic. • No risk of adverse impacts to neighboring businesses. • Don't have to install utilities. • Will enhance tax value of property and provide jobs. • No noise outside. • More than enough parking. • Herberger's is currently vacant except planet fitness, nothing else adjoining. • Aesthetic qualities will be maintained. • No opposition expressed to date. Current existing access to the mall from inside will be closed off except for possible emergencies. Mendenhall asked about shipment schedules that coincide as to not interfere with children coming from and going to the school next door. Budge commented that there is a shipping dock on the west side of the building that will be utilized. Specific schedules have not been set yet but the applicant will be willing to accommodate whatever needs to happen in that regard. Berls asked about amending the reciprocal easement agreement with the mall. Budge stated they have reached out to the mall owners and may need JC Penny's approval as well. They are currently working through that process which is a condition of the lease of the property. If it is not secured they won't occupy the property at all. Berls expressed concerns about alternative energy and hazardous waste. Budge explained there are no chemicals used in the product. The product is not in market place yet, involves patents and is proprietary. They have discussed with city staff the option of including a condition that if it is different than what is shown on the application the City can ask the applicant to come back and address those issues. Other items addressed: • Projections on job growth are 350 within 18 months. • Existing electrical utilities are sufficient. • Five year draft lease has renewal options. As long they are using property in conformance with CUP, lease will stay in effect. • Don't anticipate any additional storage space or buildings. • 833 available parking spaces which is more than needed. Holm expressed concerns with the school and traffic patterns in that area. Budge explained that the parking they intend to utilize is less than what Shopko utilized and is a less intense use than is allowed. Paul Andrus, Planner, gave the staff report. Laboratory and light manufacturing are permitted in the C-2 zone. Staff recommends approval with conditions stated. Letter that was received was sent after the staff report went out. City will not get in the middle of that civil issue. City does not control shipment times or frequencies. Mendenhall opened the public hearing. In favor: Don Zebe, 465 Berrett, Pocatello ID, representing mall owner and applicant. Mall owner is not adverse to the project at all and will do what he can for approvals from JC Penny and Hobby Lobby. Shipments and deliveries will be in late evening after and prior to school hours. There were more trucks with Sears Herberg's and Shopko combined than will be in operation for this project. In opposition: Nikki Taysom, General Delivery, Pocatello ID, said there are too many unknowns especially with school kids nearby. Although other stores had more traffic with deliveries and customers there wasn't a school there at the time. Expressed concerns about production and waste. Stated she is deadly against the project and that we need to protect our children. Mendenhall closed the public hearing brining the meeting back to the Commission. Stoddard questioned DEQ's roll in monitoring the facility. Holmes stated they would deal with the DEQ separately. The City's involvement would be more in terms of Fire Department, hazardous waste and storm water discharge. Mendenhall stated he felt it was a good idea to bring the item back for review to see if what was presented is what's actually happening. Zebe expressed concern that the Commission had the wrong perception about environmental issues. Berls asked for more specifics on the environmental impacts that explain why an industrial hygienist would not be needed. James Brainard, 1690 Satterfield Dr., stated this is his factory and design. They will be making a product that uses no chemicals and no regulated materials. The primary ingredient is aluminum foil. It is not made on site but comes in on spools and they shape it to their needs to build power products. They don't use water in process so are not putting anything in sewer line that doesn't belong. The process is very clean. They expect around 350 jobs with a base wage of $50k. Mr. Brainard stated he has no problem with inspectors coming by any time. Waste materials are likely to be little bits of foil and paper. This technology is not something that will be in public view for some years and is transformative technology. Mr. Brainard's background is in green energy. He founded a successful solar power company here that he left to start this company. He has many relationships in D.C. with scientists that understand green energy. Mr. Brainard stated he is proud to help the government be safe, create jobs and help the community. He anticipates 2-4 semi's per day once in full production. Licensed inspectors can sign non- disclosures and come in any time. Commissioners further discussed an additional review of the facility including if it actually needed to come before the Commission again or if City staff could monitor it, as well as a time frame. Hillam stated that the staff could monitor the facility administratively and not bring it back to the Commission unless there were issues. Attorney Holmes mentioned that ON Semi -Conductor is right next to a school and there are no issues. He agreed with the recommendation from staff. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Berls moved to approve the Conditional Use Permit with the conditions recommended by City staff and with the recommendation that it will be reviewed in one year (from date of issuance) by staff and the Commission reserves the right to schedule additional reviews if necessary upon advice from Staff. Smith seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Brandon Jackson, Yes; Thais Ayre, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes. Motion carried. 3. An application for a Change in Land Use District from Limited Residential (R-2) to General Commercial (C-2) on approximately 0.69 acres of land. Subject property is in the NE % of Section 10, Township 6 South, Range 34 East of the Boise Meridian, Idaho, generally located at 4522 Burley Drive and 4520 Burley Drive in Chubbuck, Idaho. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area as Employment. Type of Action: Recommendation. (action Item) Stewart Ward with Dioptra, 4880 Cloverdell, representing the applicant. The request is for a zone change on property on Burley Drive. The property was purchased by ICCU last year. Two homes were removed and it is now a gravel lot. The piece to the east houses the storage buildings that previously came before the Commission for Conditional Use Permits. The surrounding property is all owned by ICCU and is zoned C-2. The last remaining one is in the R-2 zone. The Credit Union is in the process of doing a short plat to combine all the properties. City services are already available so no need to extend services. The C-2 zone is compatible with surrounding zones and conducive with the Chubbuck downtown area. Staff report was given by Don Matson, Senior Planner. Nothing new to report. No defined use for the property yet. Traffic count is very low on Burley, staff recommends approval. Mendenhall opened the public hearing. No public comment. Mendenhall closed the public hearing brining the meeting back to the Commission. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Smith moved to recommend approval of zone change as presented. Schwartz seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Rebecca Berls, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Thais Ayre, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; TJ Budge, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes. Motion carried. 4. An application for annexation of approximately 17.4 acres of land into the City of Chubbuck and to include the property in the Limited Residential (R-2) Zone, and to change the Zone on approximately .2 acres of land from Agriculture (A) to Limited Residential (R-2). The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area as Mixed Use. Property is in the NW of Section 9, Township 6 South, Range 34 East of the Boise Meridian, Idaho. The subject parcels are generally located on the east side of Philbin Road, north of the Redman Lateral Canal and south of the future alignment of Sawtooth Street in Chubbuck, Idaho. Type of Action: Recommendation. (action Item) Mitch Greer, RMES 600 E. Oak, Greer stated they have been working with SEICAA on the project and the goal is to get it annexed into the City and get the appropriate zoning applied. They originally brought a project to the Commission in the southern section but had issues with funding. The intent is still to move forward but had to acquire different property that fit with their grant programs. This is the same type of development, single family residential in R-2 zoning. The homes will be very consistent to those in Park Meadows. Development is consistent with the comprehensive plan and City ordinances. The project is consistent with surrounding uses. The project is ultimately just finishing out what Park Meadows was going to be at one time. Schwartz clarified that the .2 acres has already been annexed, which was confirmed. Budge asked about greenspace between lots and if they are proposing any additional greenspace. Greer said they are not proposing any additional but will be contributing to the overall park master plan. They do have small areas reserved for drainage but not necessarily considered parks or greenspace. Staff report provided by Don Matson, Senior Planner. The west 25 feet was annexed about 12 years ago and is currently Agriculture zone. Really two actions: one is to annex 17.4 acres as R-2 and rezone strip on Philbin Road from Ag to R-2. Staff has no issues and support the application. Mendenhall opened the public hearing. Opposed: Nikki Taysom, general delivery, Pocatello ID. Commented that she has several concerns about SEICAA's involvement and if it's using public tax dollars she is deadly opposed. Expressed that she would like to know future development plans for the area to the north. Expressed her wish to save farm land and open space. Taysom stated that supporting public projects with non -profits is socialism. Mendenhall closed the public hearing brining the meeting back to the Commission. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Budge moved to recommend approval of the annexation and designate it as limited residential R-2, to include .2 acres on west end. Schwartz seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote:; Brandon Jackson, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; TJ Budge, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes Jason Mendenhall, Yes. Motion carried. BUSINESS ITEMS 1. The applicant proposes a 21 lot Preliminary Plat for 20 single family residential lots and 1 common lot in the Alpine Crossing subdivision, Division 1A. It includes an extension of Pinewood Avenue west of Independence Avenue for access to this phase. Preliminary plats are evaluated against certain criteria found in municipal code section 17.12.100.B. Type of Action: Recommendation. (action Item) Mitch Greer, RMES 600 E. Oak, representing the applicant. The project will encompass the space that was just annexed (see above). Project will be a total of 21 lots and one open space lot that will function as a drainage facility. Lots are very consistent with Park Meadows. Intend to extend Pinewood to the west. Housing is in short supply. This is a spot that has been developing for many years and makes sense to finish out to meet demand. Park Meadows has been one of the most successful residential projects in the city. All homes will be owner occupied. SEICAA will not be developing rentals. They will be built and sold to homeowners through SEICAA programs. Original project was approved as Alpine Crossing Division 1 but wasn't developed. Since this piece will actually be developed first they are calling it Alpine Crossing Division 1A. Entire development will drain to the swell. They have done some preliminary grading for that. Irrigation conversations and plans are on-going. Have started the process of getting access. Staff report given by Don Matson, Senior Planner. No additional information. Some issues listed are that it is conditional upon annexation of property and upon Council approval of the plat. City Engineering Department looking at a pressurized irrigation master plan. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Schwartz moved to recommend approval of preliminary plat as presented with staff conditions. Jackson seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Brandon Jackson, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; TJ Budge, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes. Motion carried. 2. The applicant proposes an 11 lot subdivision with 9 multi -family residential building lots, one common lot, and one parcel for street dedications in the Sawtooth Ridge subdivision. The street's parcel will accommodate widening Philbin Road and extending Sawtooth Road east of Philbin for access to the property. Preliminary plats are evaluated against certain criteria found in municipal code section 17.12.100.B. Type of Action: Recommendation. (action Item) Stewart Ward, Dioptra 4880 Cloverdell, representing applicant. Property will extend Sawtooth from Philbin to the east. Total property is approximately 2.8 acres with 11 lots, 9 of which are multi -family units. One is a parking lot /recreational area and one for additional right-of-way on Philbin and Sawtooth. Property was recently rezoned to R-4 in October. The applicant hopes to break ground this year. Access to development is off of future Sawtooth road. All the lots include a building in addition to a parking lot. They are proposing an HOA to maintain the parking lot and landscaped areas with a cross access and utility easement for the parking lot. Water and sewer will be extended from Philbin. Storm water will be retained on site. Any storm water off the road will go into roadside swales. Areas inside development are outlined for storm water retention and an additional area in the north east corner for retention if needed. Sidewalks interior to the development are extended to the city streets. They stubbed a sidewalk to the east to the School District property for future walkable access. May piggy back on to the overall master plan irrigation system from Alpine Crossing or would have to build their own and there are already Ag irrigation rights on the property. HOA will maintain all the landscaping outside of the buildings plus any of the pavement within the development. There is a 12.5 foot buffer between Philbin and sidewalk that will likely be vegetation, similar to what exist in front of the church with a grass swell and trees. The developer will be widening Philbin and doing construction of the north half of Sawtooth. Staff report by Don Matson, Senior Planner. Main concerns are making sure they have irrigation rights required by code and that the easement on north side of property (partly on this property and partly on church property) is vacated in an agreement with the easement holder. Mendenhall asked if the city would be doing any traffic management. Matson stated that neither this development nor Alpine Crossing generate enough traffic to warrant a study. The city sent the traffic counts and projections for developments to a consultant. They are looking at other ways to find proportional improvements for projects. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Schwartz moved to recommend approval of the preliminary plat with staff conditions. Smith seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Thais Ayre, Yes; TJ Budge, Mike Schwartz, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Brandon Jackson, Yes; Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes. Motion carried. 3. The applicant proposes a Preliminary Plat for 30 lots in the Northside Crossing Division 3 subdivision. It includes 24 single-family residential lots,1 parcel for open space/public park, 2 common lots, and 3 lots to be developed each with 4 dwelling units at a future date. One of the common lots will be an amenity (clubhouse), and the park will include part of the Northside Crossing trail system. Preliminary plats are evaluated against certain criteria found in municipal code section 17.12.100.8. Type of Action: Recommendation. (action Item) Mitch Greer, RMES 600 E. Oak, representing the applicant. In Northside Crossing Division 3 they are proposing a 55 and active development that will coincide with the housing development and also the commercial developments that will happen to the south. This is the first development like this. The development will have over an acre of park space to the south, and over an acre of property associated with a clubhouse as an amenity to the development. The project starts off with more than 25% of overall land dedicated to park and community space. Park will be a developed park system. 25% doesn't include the other trail systems within developed lots. The units to the east are shown as single lots in the proposal but will be quad villas and will be individually owned by residents. Development will have 2 different distinct products; a more shared function, modeled off other successful projects done in Utah and single family detached style. Northside Crossing 2 showed utility extensions that went almost back up to Hiline. This project shows connection to those as backbone infrastructure. It isn't fully installed but has been started. Project is consistent with the Creative Community zone. They are working on the draft CC&R's. The Irrigation Master Plan is coming soon, they have had issues with their water modeling software but are close to having a master plan in place for whole Northside Crossing area. Budge, asked what the items identified in pink on the plat were. Greer stated that since they are creating more developed parks that will still also contain storm water they needed a dual use park and those pink areas are drainage systems with underground infiltrators that will allow water to drain quickly from park area itself so it doesn't have long standing water. Snow storage will be at the end of the cul-de-sac, on both sides, the intermediate area, and the park to the south can also function for snow storage. Berls noted that she is against using TIF money for signage or lighting improvements. Brief discussion was had about the hammerhead area in regards to emergency vehicles and parking. Greer stated it is a design used frequently and designed to function adequately. They have used this design a lot in Pocatello. More common design they are using now. Stoddard asked about previously mentioned pending land purchases. Lyn Yost stated the agreements are still in place, and they have the option until January 31. They have started the title work. Staff report by Don Matson, Senior Planner. Staff examined the hammerhead design closely. Staff recommends approval. Mendenhall entertained a motion. Stoddard moved to recommend approval of preliminary plat as presented with conditions. Holm seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Thais Ayre, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; TJ Budge, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Brandon Jackson, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes. UPCOMING MEETING REMINDER: Special Study Session to Review City Code Amendment Proposals- January 28th at 6 PM Hillam asked Commissions to please attend if possible, they will be doing a major PUD overhaul. 2. Regular Meeting- February 11tH Mendenhall entertained a motion to adjourn; Schwartz made the motion, Smith seconded. All voted to adjourn at 8:52pm. Jason Mendenhall, Chairperson Kami Morrison, Office Administrator CHUBBUCK I D R H 0 City of Chubbuck Land Use and Development Commission Regular Meeting January 28, 2020 6:00 PM City Hall Council Chambers 5160 Yellowstone Avenue, Chubbuck, ID 83202 MINUTES Board Members Present: Chair Jason Mendenhall, Mike Schwartz, Vice -Chair Dan Stoddard, Rebecca Berls, Thais Ayre, Brady Smith and Brandon Jackson. Staff Members Present: City Attorney Tom Holmes, Senior Planner Don Matson, Community Planning and Economic Development Director Devin Hillam, Planner Paul Andrus, Office Administrator Kami Morrison Mendenhall called the meeting to order at 6:00pm and lead the Commission in the Pledge of Allegiance. GENERAL BUSINESS I. The Commission may review proposed city code text amendments by City Staff and provide input on the following sections of draft code: 18.28 Administration Chapter, 18.20 Planned Unit Developments (PUDs) Chapter, 18.06 Definitions Chapter, and a new proposed chapter 18.10, relating to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). Don Matson, Senior Planner, presented changes to the PUD ordinance. Matson spoke about incentives, architectural guidelines, standards, procedures and how those changes relate to the City's strategic plan on infill development and orderly growth. Matson also referenced how each of those items relates to the city budget in regards to larger lots, extending utilities to the fringe and maintaining additional lengths of utility lines. The goal is to create a better approach for effective use of resources and more sustainable development pattern. The general proposal for the PUD code is to raise the bar on quality and design and also offer a wider range of options for the developer that also are amenable to residents. Mendenhall and Berls expressed concerns over a one acre minimum requirement and a developer having the ability to potentially put a duplex or triplex on a one acre lot and that it would be automatically permitted. Matson clarified that a PUD is still a public hearing process. Berls requested revisions and more clarity to the land use table relating to the PUD process; sentence describing "non- binding" needs to be more definite. Language doesn't refer to second table. Matson stated revisions are trying to encourage creativity. Berls had an additional concern regarding kennels. Under commercial services they are automatically permitted and allows for three or more dogs. Matson stated a lot of items in the land use table come straight from city code. Andrus commented that there are different kennels Commercial and Hobby and different requirements for each. Matson presented changes to the PUD process which included the option to process multiple items together such as the zone application, PUD approval and master development plan, or a preliminary plat at the same time as PUD approval. Mendenhall suggested to have the applicant break up those items in presentations to the Commission to help with clarity when taking action. Applicants should only present information that pertains to the specific action. Under architectural changes Berls requested to specify parking at 20 feet deep from the inside of sidewalk. Smith commented that the PUD is very similar to the creative community zoning and that there isn't much of a contrast. Goal is to create higher density with more options. Devin Hillam, Community Planning and Economic Development Director, presented the Administration chapter changes. The Commission has two conditional use permits at the next meeting so will have a more in depth study session after those are presented. Hillam presented multiple code deficiencies in: variances, public hearings, deadlines for submittal, CUP approval criteria and conditions, process for reconsideration, amendments or appeals, and rezone options to approve all or deny. Hillam then discussed the major CUP changes and variance changes. Berls requested under the variance code, to incorporate more wording from Idaho Code for exceptions of standards because it has more definite wording. Comprehensive plan amendments were presented and the Commission had a brief discussion regarding frequency of amendments. Hillam stated for the ability to track changes, twice a year is ideal and does the public a greater service. Under comp plan amendment criteria Berls requested to include general language about "community's best interest" instead of welfare. Under land use ordinances, Hillam proposed one public hearing for land use followed by a business item on the Council agenda instead of two public hearings. Commissioners discussed pros and cons of one public hearing or two. Comments made were: • Berls agrees with 2 public hearings. Cell phone tower, land use ruled one way, Council ruled the other. Council should be able to hold public hearing. Hillam stated that was a CUP and the appeals process would still be in place and they would still have that option. Applicants can appeal a LUDC decision to Council. • Mendenhall commented that applicants could request a public hearing where one has not been held. Council wouldn't necessarily have to act. • There is an education component. All testimony comes to City Council anyway. Devalues the planning and zoning angle to have two hearings. • Council always has the option to hold one. Applicants can still request a reconsideration and get in front of elected officials if they don't like a decision. Really speeds up the process. Hillam stated that one hearing is becoming the standard as cities have been changing codes. Hillam suggested adding language to include, if 20 or more people petition a hearing it can trigger a second public hearing to Council. The Commissioners agreed with that suggestion. Request for petition has to meet certain criteria and justification. Rezones were proposed to be done by development agreements. The Commission could narrow down use of specific areas and the agreement makes it clear that is the ONLY allowed use. Berls requested to add that the agreement needs to be recorded. Mendenhall asked if there is a process in place for a new property owner to have the development agreement changed. Hillam stated it would then just go through a new rezone process. Annexation and zoning changes were presented. Commissioners discussed city services being provided prior to annexation. Hillam stated he is currently working with the county on the area of impact and will require local improvement districts be willing to bear the burden to improve properties to city standards before annexation. Although it will allow for some instances of flexibility. Definitions will be covered in the next study session. Hillam asked the Commission to send any comments on the two ordinances presented to staff. The goal is to have the PUD and admin chapter scheduled for public hearings in March. Mendenhall entertained a motion to adjourn; Jackson made the motion, Berls seconded. All voted to adjourn at 7:35 pm.

Describe how this application will be beneficial to the neighborhood or otherwise foster public health, safety or welfare. Investment in the site should spur economic redevelopment of some of the surrounding properties in the neighborhood, an area which contains existing city utilities, services, and roads. Additional roads in the neighborhood, designed to contain passive traffic calming devices, will increase walk and bikeability in their neighborhood and increased use on the north end of the neighborhood from city employees and the public will helping to keep the neighborhood safe. 2. How will this Application produce a positive impact on transportation facilities, public utilities, public parks or the natural environment? The new City Hall will enhance the neighborhood with a significant investment on the site, will create excellent public spaces, including parks and plaza areas. The City Hall project will increase connecting roadways in the area which will create a more walkable neighborhood than currently exists. 3. What account has been taken of noise and traffic conditions in the vicinity of the land for which the application is sought? Sufficient streets exist adjacent to the site to serve the City Hall project, with Burley Drive being a classified Collector Street with excess capacity to serve the City Hall project and additional traffic as the downtown area redevelops. Hours of operation for City Hall should remain largely as weekday -use with the occasional night and evening event such as public hearings. 4. What account has been taken of the character and use of the buildings and land adjoining and in the vicinity of the property for which the permit is sought, together with the number of persons residing or working in such buildings or upon said land? How is the proposed development compatible? The effects on surrounding properties should be minimal since surrounding uses already contain a mix of residential, commercial/professional, and industrial uses. The proposal will create excellent outdoor public space for existing and future residents and employees who work in the neighborhood, as well as serve as a great central space for civic uses in the broader Chubbuck area. 1 of 3 Revised 1-25-2017 PBA Conditional Use Permit Questionnaire - ------------------------- - Exhibit 1: Application Materials '--------------------------- 5. Explain how the permit, if granted, will not work an unreasonable hardship upon surrounding property owners by virtue of its physical nature or by the impact of changes made in the landscape or natural scenery of said land? In order to create a civic center with excellent public parks and plazas, streetscopes, and building layouts, the Chubbuck Development Authority and the City of Chubbuck have purchased a significant portion of land on the specific site and in the vicinity. A civic use on the site should have a lesser impact than uses which could otherwise be permitted on the site under its current C-2 zoning and would absolutely have a lesser impact on surrounding properties that its previous Industrial zoning classification. 6. What considerations have been given to the aesthetic qualities of the proposed use and surrounding lands? As a kick-off project for the downtown area project, upmost thought has been given to the City Hall pad and in considerations for site development around City Hall. The City Hall building has been designed by a professional architect with site development engineering done by a separate firm. Landscape architects have been employed to assist with park and plaza plans in coordination with the City's Community Planning & Economic Development staff. 7. Address how adverse impacts on other developments within the City have been minimized as much as possible. Staff does not anticipate adverse impacts on other developments in the vicinity or within the City and in fact, believes that the net effect of locating the City Hall on the site will be positive for other developments in the City of Chubbuck, especially in conjunction with downtown planning efforts. 8. Describe the sequence and timing of the proposed development. A building permit application is anticipated to be filed in March with construction being approximately 78 months. Construction will occur under the City's construction site standards for hours of operation, dust and erosion controls, noise, etc. 9. How will the development be properly maintained? The development will be maintained by City Staff. Staff is dedicated to keeping the grounds, building, and streetscope beautiful. 2 of 3 Revised 1-25-2017 PBA Conditional Use Permit Questionnaire --------------------------- Exhibit 1: Application Materials '--------------------------- 10 Designate the exact location and nature of the development. The location is shown in the drawings submitted with the application. The City Hall building will house administrative personnel of the City from the Clerk's Office, Public Works Office (Building, Planning, Economic Development, Engineering), Human Resources, City Attorney's Office, and the Mayor's Office. As previously indicated, there will be limited weekend and evening use of the property with hearings, events, elections, etc. 11. Which on-site or off-site public services are required for this development? (E.g. - Sanitation, Water, sewer, other.) The location is shown in the drawings submitted with the application. The City Hall building will house administrative personnel of the City from the Clerk's Office, Public Works Office (Building, Planning, Economic Development, Engineering), Human Resources, City Attorney's Office, and the Mayor's Office. As previously indicated, there will be limited weekend and evening use of the property with hearings, events, elections, etc. 12. List which, if any, studies of social, economic, or environmental effect have been required of this application. (Examples: Traffic Study, Water or Sewer Capacity Study, Storm -Water Drainage, etc.) No studies should be necessary as existing streets in the area are classed and built to handle the site's traffic and since stormwater retention is being designed to keep runoff on-site and sufficient water and sewer capacity exists for the use. 3 of 3 Revised 1-25-2017 PBA i :--------------------------- Exhibit 1: Application Materials + 1 d d 1 � W I I III 1 I • I f IIF I f I LfUMN iVEMK = 1- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Exhibit 1: Application Materials : -------------------------- r Fk Or Fs �"�� �"y� �� � ! . }'tiy� E� f' •� ��� � ��1.'�cy � !+ f `'�'� � irk.--�'�; �.;-Maw aw Ok W --------------------------- ,Exhibit 1: Application Materials '------------------------- Raq EL2✓ATOH1 E6E�D 3 !a'3lJTFi tLt�IATF3Fi "A! -db.- 7 rcyr CLLYAThvK Amm ` ' 1- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Exhibit 1: Application Materials --------------------------- Miay&s Vvaldng Mbhj Lobby View 2 Nkfturpuse Vlaw Lobby View ::401111;� I, -40 Chambers View Ralmny View, vem 1— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — :Exhibit 1: Application Materials -------------------------- EA15T F—EeAT10N was - _Am_ I NOW CLLYATkZN AQ= .. .

Notification Requirements: Notices for the public hearing shall be provided in accordance with section 18.28.1OC. 4. Public Hearing: A public hearing shall be held by the Land Use and Development Commission in accordance with procedures adopted by City Council resolution. At the public hearing, the Commission shall receive pertinent evidence concerning the proposed use and the proposed conditions under which it would be operated or maintained, particularly with respect to the standards of approval in Section 18.28.020.C5. 5. Standards for Approving a CUP: A CUP may only be approved if the Land Use and Development Commission makes affirmative findings of fact on each of the following standards: a. The proposed use is conditionally permitted in the subject land use district and complies with all of the applicable provisions of city code unless modified through the conditional use permit process; b. The proposed use is generally not in conflict with the goals, objectives, and policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan. c. The proposed use is compatible with other existing and permitted uses in the general vicinity. d.

A provisions that the owner/developer acknowledges and agrees that failure to comply with the terms of the agreement shall result in a rezoning of the real property to the zoning district existing immediately prior to the execution of the agreement or, in the case of the pre-existing zone being an initial zone at annexation, a zone deemed appropriate by the Commission and Council. h. A provision specifying that the agreement and all conditions, terms, duties, and obligations included in said agreement shall be an encumbrance on the real property and shall run with the land. i. Any other matter required by the City Council. 18 18.28.060: ANNEXATIONS A.

This section shall apply to all lands which are allowed to annex by State law in accordance with its procedures. B. Prior Consent: For purposes of this section, prior consent to annex shall be deemed given when evidenced by written authorization or approval executed by the owner or owner's authorized agent. Consent shall be implied for the area of all lands connected to water or wastewater systems operated by the City if the connection was requested in writing by the owner, or the owner's authorized agent, or completed before July 1, 2008 and for lands subject to a written consent to annex recorded in the County Recorder's office. Written consent to annex, if recorded in the County Recorder's office, shall be binding upon subsequent purchasers, heirs, or assigns of lands in the consent. Lands need not be contiguous or adjacent to the city limits at the time the landowner consents to annexation for the property to be subject to a valid consent to annex; provided however, no annexation of lands shall occur, irrespective of consent, until such land becomes contiguous or adjacent to the city limits. C. Approval by Ordinance: Annexations shall become effective when the Council adopts an ordinance and upon summary publication. D.

F. Annexation Classifications, Notice, and Procedure: In accordance with Idaho Code section 50-222, three (3) annexations classifications have been established based on the size of the area considered for annexation, the property's contiguity to the City, level of private landowner consent, and sometimes due to health-related considerations. Annexation of all lands shall following the applicable notice and procedures required by Idaho Code. G. Standards for Approving Annexations: a. Standards for Approving an Annexation: Annexation may be approved by the City Council if affirmative written findings of fact are made on each of the following standards: 1. The land is contiguous or adjacent to the City boundary; 2. All portions of highways, streets, or roadways lying wholly or partially within an area to be annexed shall be included within the area requested for annexation unless expressly agreed between the City and the County. 3. The annexation meets the requirements for its Annexation Classification; 4. Annexation of the land is in the best interest of the City (i.e., income generated by property taxes will exceed long-term costs associated with maintenance and provision of services and facilities; the advantages both to the City and to the area outweigh the disadvantages; if previously developed, the area has the opportunity to redeveloped or to develop at higher densities; if expenses required exceed property tax income, the residents and/or Council agree to form a local improvement district; annexation is equitable and fair 20 to existing residents; annexation would address a public health concern); 5. The land is able to be served currently, or within a reasonable time, by essential urban services. 6. A zoning district will be assigned via ordinance at the same time, or immediately following, the annexation approval. 18.28.070: APPEAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE DECISION A.

Purpose: It is the policy of the city to guide major land development projects, and the purpose of this district is to encourage innovation and special features in development by embracing and promoting projects proposing any of the following, but not necessarily all: 1. A combination of land uses and development patterns in harmony with development intensity, multi- modal transportation, community design, and community facilities objectives of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan; however, unless otherwise stated in this section, a mix of land uses or housing types is not required in a PUD. 2. A maximum choice of living environments by allowing a variety of housing and structure types, permitting an increased density per acre, and accepting a reduction in lot dimensions, yards, setback, and area requirements. 3. A more useful network of bicycle and pedestrian paths, open space, and recreation areas accessible to all and supportive of healthy commuting and active living, and if included as part of a mixed use project, more convenience in access to employment and services. 4. A reasonable standard for architectural features and other designs to enhance the long-term investment of development within the community and to provide incentives for such development. A more efficient use of land than is generally achieved through conventional development, resulting in substantial savings through shorter utilities and streets, and incentives to reduce future demands on energy and other resources. 6. A development pattern which preserves and utilizes natural topography and geologic features, scenic vistas, suitable trees and other vegetation, and prevents the disruption of natural drainage patterns. B. Intent: The intent of the PUD Zone is to further the policies of the City of Chubbuck comprehensive plan to a greater extent than would a traditional zone, by providing a zoning district with a better mix and arrangement of land uses than are typically found separately in mutually exclusive, traditional zoning districts to: 1. Promote the public health, safety, and welfare; 2. Reduce suburban sprawl, under -developed sites, and agricultural land development on the ex -urban fringe; 3. Promote increased community interactions through careful site development which emphasizes pedestrian and bicycle modalities; 4. Encourage a variety of housing types and affordability that accommodate residents' needs through all stages of life; 5. Establish reasonable design standards for development and redevelopment within the PUD in order to ensure that the built environment is sustainably desirable and stable, that property values are stable and maintained, and to enhance the image of the City of Chubbuck; and 6.

Unless otherwise authorized, subjects not governed by this chapter shall be governed by the respective provisions found elsewhere in this title. 18.20.030: ELIGIBILITY: The planned unit development process is not intended to skirt development rules nor result in a detrimental impact on the surrounding community through its implementation. A. Eligibility: A PUD may be permitted if a developer desires flexibility from specific conformance with zoning regulations as applicable to individual lots or traditional subdivision regulations provided they can meet the requirements for a PUD located within this chapter. The PUD process is intended to provide flexibility, latitude, and relief from the provisions of the zoning ordinance only if the proposed development is consistent with two (2) or more of the following instances: 1. The development offers a maximum choice of living environments by allowing a variety of housing and building types. 2. The development promotes mixed use projects which are functionally integrated within the development and provides services or benefit to the primary use. For the purposes of this chapter, a mixed use project means the incorporation of more than one of the following land use groups: residential, commercial, industrial, and civic/institutional. 3. The development provides a layout which preserves and properly utilizes natural topography and geologic features, historic resources, scenic vistas, and beneficial trees or other vegetation. 4. The development parcel is constrained or otherwise limited by some obstacle, feature, geometry, condition, or easement that interferes with applying standard development processes. 5. The development qualifies as infill per this chapter. 6. The development encourages infill that further implements the City of Chubbuck comprehensive plan and other plans, such as for parks or the downtown area. B. Minimum Area: 1. Residential: A PUD shall contain an area of not less than one (1) acre. 2. Commercial, Industrial, or Mixed Uses: A PUD shall contain an area of not less than three (3) acres. 3. Downtown Area: For a Residential, Mixed Use or Commercial PUD in the Downtown Area there shall be no minimum area requirement, but design must accommodate requirements of this code. 4. Residential Infill PUD: There shall be no minimum area requirement for a PUD meeting the infill standards per section 18.20.60.E, but design must accommodate requirements of this code. For the purposes of this chapter, the downtown area shall be defined with the following boundary: Union Pacific Railroad on the east, Interstate Highway 86 on the south, a line approximately 400 feet west of Yellowstone Avenue on the west, and a line approximately 300 feet north of Chubbuck Road on the north. Parcels northwest of the Yellowstone Avenue and Chubbuck Road intersection are included in this description. Sites over 5 acres are also eligible for Creative Community (CC) zoning and development. Qualifying sites are encouraged to consider development as a CC. C. Ownership and Direction: A PUD shall be developed under single ownership or direction or be the subject of a joint application by the owners of all property included. An application for approval of a PUD may be filed by a person or persons having contractual interest in the property, but must include written consent of the recorded owner or owners of property included in the development. Unless otherwise provided as a condition for approval of a PUD, the applicant may transfer units of any development for which approval has been granted; provided, that the transferee shall complete, use, and maintain each such unit in conformance with the approved PUD Master Development Plan (hereinafter referred to as "MDP"). Perpetual maintenance arrangements of common areas shall be arranged in the Codes, Covenants, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) as described in 18.20.040.D. D. Qualifying Locations: A PUD Zone may be proposed in any part of the City. 18.20.40: PROCEDURE FOR APPROVAL OF A PUD: PUDs are allowed in any area within the city; provided the following procedure is utilized and the plan is approved by the City Council (hereinafter referred to as "Council") after appropriate public hearing and review by the Land Use and Development Commission (hereinafter referred to as "Commission"). In reviewing any PUD, the Commission and the Council shall take into account the criteria and standards set forth in subsection 18.28.040.0 of this title. A. Discretionary Powers: Following the spirit and purpose of this chapter, much greater latitude is permitted than in conventional and traditional regulations for development density and intensity. In consideration of the latitude given, the Commission and Council shall have discretionary powers in judging and approving or disapproving the imaginative or unique concepts, innovations, and designs which shall be incorporated into the plans presented, provided that the planned unit development shall conform to the general purposes and objectives of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan. B. Planning Conference: The developer shall meet with the public works director in a Planning Conference as described in 17.12.020 to discuss submission of a PUD zone andP1JD Master Development Plan (hereinafter referred to as "MDP") application. The purpose of this meeting is to review early and informally the purpose and effect of this title and the criteria and standards contained herein, and to familiarize the developer with the Comprehensive Plan and land use and development regulations. C.

In addition to residential and other allowed uses, up to twenty percent (20%) of the gross land area may be directed to other uses that are not allowed within the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Designation area, provided that: i. The uses are appropriate with the primary use. ii. The uses are intended to serve principally the properties within the PUD. iii. The uses are planned as an integral part of the PUD. iv. The uses are located and so designed as to provide direct access to a collector or an arterial street without creating congestion or traffic hazards. v. A minimum of fifty percent (50%) of the primary use development occurs prior to the development of the specially permitted uses. e. Proposed non-residential land uses that would require a Conditional Use Permit in the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use area, as well as land uses as described in subsection 1.e. above, shall also require a notice with the PUD Master Deyel pment PlanMDP public hearing notice. Such uses proposed within a PUD after approval, but not included in the development plan, shall require a Conditional Use Permit and Master Deyel.,r,r ent of^MDP amendment. PUDs in areas with a Future Land Use Designation of Commercial or Employment in the Comprehensive Plan must not be exclusively residential but shall include non-residential land uses. The mix of residential and non-residential land uses shall be appropriate for the site location and design, as determined by the Commission and Council. Exceptions may be made for qualified infill parcels, particularly in the downtown area as defined in section 18.20.30.6. Waivers and Adjustments: The Council may grant waivers or adjustments to the requirements for public or private street widths, setbacks or other design standards if such waivers are deemed appropriate for the development after considering surrounding uses and aesthetics. Special consideration may be given for PUDs in infill areas. a. Zoning Standards: The developer may deviate from the height, lot line setback, and lot dimension schedule found in chapters 18.08 and 18.12. 12 i. Deviations shall be listed in full as a part of the planned unit development application. Modifications to other zoning and subdivision standards will be determined by the Land Use and Development Commission and ClitjFCouncil on a case by case basis. ii. Residential setbacks shall not be reduced between sidewalks and garages to less than twenty feet im b. Municipal Standards: The following standards may be modified if requested as part of the PUD approval process and if deemed appropriate by the Council upon advice of the Public Works Director, and other staff as applicable, after considering whether the resulting development would achieve greater consistency with the intent and purpose of this chapter than development that would occur without the modification: i. Any provision in title 16 of this Code pertaining to streets and sidewalks; ii. Any provision pertaining to off-street parking and loading except that at least one of the required parking spaces per residential unit shall be located a reasonable walking distance, except as required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). iii. Other provisions of this Code on a case-by-case basis. 3. Height and Setback Regulations: Comprehensive Plan Land Use LDR MDR HDR MU C E Maximum Height' 35' 35' 45' 45' 70' 70' Minimum Setback from Perimeter 10' 10' 10' 10' 10' 10' Minimum Setback from R-1, R-2, R -2P Zoning or Single Family Homes 10' 10' 20' 20' 30' 30' ' See 78.20.60.F for exceptions and incentives. In addition: a. A proposed PUD shall incorporate height, density, and landscaping transition designs along the development's perimeter to achieve an orderly transition to existing residential development on adjacent properties. Buildings or units proposed to be adjacent to the perimeter of the PUD should be no more than 50 percent (50%) higher or more dense than the residential development that is adjacent to the PUD's perimeter. b. Land uses permitted in the HDR and MU districts under 35' may be set back 10'. Conditionally permitted uses under 35' may be set back 10' if permitted by the Commission and Council. See 18.20.60.F for additional information on non-residential development. Industrial development in a PUD adjacent to any residential uses or zoning shall include a landscaped buffer within the setback that is at least ten feet (10') wide. The landscaped buffer shall include a minimum density of one tree per thirty-five (35) linear feet and appropriate ground cover and vegetation per the standards in this Chapter. d. For the purposes of this section, residential uses across an arterial street from a non-residential use shall not be considered adjacent, but shall be considered adjacent if located across a local or collector street. 13 4. Building Permits and Architectural Features: When applying for a building permit for structures or signs within a PUD, the applicant shall include a letter or checklist verifying that the structure satisfies the architectural requirements of this chapter and the conditions of approval of the PUD. A similar letter or checklist may be required for the Design Review phase of a development to verify conformance with the approved open space and landscaping conditions of the PUD. 6. Water Conservation in Landscaping: In landscaped areas in PUDs, other than recreation areas and managed natural areas, at least 33% of the area shall incorporate and maintain a ground cover other than lawn or turf grasses, and that consumes less water than lawn or turf grasses. 7. Utilities: Underground utilities, including telephone and electrical systems, are required within the limits of all PUDs. Appurtenances to these systems which can be effectively screened may be exempted from this requirement if the Commission and Council finds that such exemption will not violate the intent or character of the proposed PUD. 8. Mechanical Equipment: In all areas of the PUD, mechanical equipment including but not limited to HVAC on roofs, walls or ground, must be visually screened from adjoining front yards and streets. B. COMMON OPEN SPACE AND PATHWAYS IN RESIDENTIAL PUDs: The provisions of this section apply to residential PUDs and to the Net Residential Area of mixed use PUDs. 1. A minimum of fifteen percent (15%) of the gross land area developed in any residential PUD project shall be reserved for common open space and recreational facilities for the residents or users of the area being developed. Front, side, and rear yard setback areas and minimum building to building separation, shall not be included in the calculation of the common open space provided. 2. The required amount of common open space land reserved under a PUD shall either be held in corporate ownership by owners of the project area for the use of each owner who buys property within the development, or if approved by the Qt -Council be dedicated to the public and retained as common open space for parks, recreation, and related uses. The responsibility for the maintenance of all open spaces shall be specified by the developer and approved by the Council before approval of the PUD Master novel n+ P nMDP. 3. Diversity in the design and use of common open space, open land, parks, and common areas is encouraged, and approval shall be judged as to its appropriateness based on the following criteria: a. Areas intended for public use shall be freely accessible from streets and/or other common areas that have unrestricted entry. The configuration of such space shall be to accommodate parks, play fields, and play areas as directed by the city. b. Pocket parks, courtyards, and similar common areas for internal use are encouraged within PUDs so as to convey a sense of openness and community within the neighborhood. Pocket parks shall be privately maintained unless approved by the Council. c. Public utility and similar easements or right-of-way for watercourses and other channels are not acceptable for common open space dedication unless such land or right-of-way is usable as a trail or similar purpose. The common open space must be usable ground and not wasteland with no other practical purpose. Consideration may be given to a managed area with a natural setting such as a natural wooded area or a natural sage and grass area. Drainage or stormwater retention is permitted in common areas. 14 4. If possible, every property developed under the PUD approach should be designed to abut upon common open space or similar areas. A clustering of dwellings is encouraged so that open space is accessible to as many residents of the PUD as possible. a. Open space and trails shall be designed so that a minimum of 75% of all multi -family structures (with 3 or more residential units per building) and a minimum of 50% of all single family, duplex, and twin home lots shall be adjacent to or have direct access to the open space, pathway, or trail. For the purposes of this section, the term "direct access" means lots or multi -family buildings are located a maximum of two hundred fifty feet (250') away from an off-street trail connecting to a common area open space lot or recreation amenity. b. Building lots separated from a common area open space lot by a local street shall be deemed to have achieved direct access if a pedestrian crossing meeting ADA standards connects the two. Trail System Requirements: Exclusive of required sidewalks within or adjacent to a public right-of-way, a public pedestrian or bicycle circulation system is required to connect to existing or planned pedestrian or bicycle routes adjacent to the project. In residential PUDs greater than 3 acres in size or 40 residential units, trails connecting residential units to internal open space and/or recreation sites are required. The minimum width of internal trails other than sidewalks shall be 6 feet, but greater widths may be required by the City after considering connections to adopted trail plans and anticipated use. C. REQUIRED AMENITIES IN RESIDENTIAL PUDS: Two (2) or more of the following amenities shall be provided as part of each residential PUD or the Net Residential Area of a mixed use PUD, and shall be commensurate with the size and planned population of the development. 1. Additional landscaped open space of at least ten percent (10%) of the gross area (25% total). Minimum landscape ordinance requirements and landscaping in building setback and separation requirements will not be counted as an amenity. 2. Private active recreational facilities such as a playground, picnic area, basketball or tennis court, swimming pool, clubhouse, etc., of a size suitable to meet the needs of the development. 3. Golf courses, but regardless of its size no golf course may contribute more than one-quarter of the common open space required by this section. 4. Provision for a neighborhood park or other public open space or improved trailhead, with public access thereto. 5. Greenways and waterways that include pedestrian ways, trails, bike paths, and equestrian trails linking residential areas with other open space uses. These may be constructed on public utility or other easements or canal right-of-way, and may be dedicated to the City or non-profit entity. Greenways and waterways differ in scale from required trail systems described in subsection B above, and may include natural areas, seating/rest areas or other appropriate facilities. Other amenities as may be approved by the Land Use and Deyel^v,rv,Commission and Council on a case-by-case basis. For the purposes of this section, a recreational facility that can simultaneously serve eight percent (8%) to ten percent (10%) of the projected PUD population at any given time shall be deemed commensurate with the size and needs of the development. 15 D. RESIDENTIAL DENSITY: 1. The base allowable residential density for a PUD is established per the Future Land Use Designation area in the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan as follows: a.

Commercial: 16 units per acre f. Employment: 16 units per acre To provide for an incentive for quality planned unit developments, the Q-�-Council may authorize an increased density of up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the allowable number of dwelling units or structures, as appropriate, taking into consideration the factors set forth in the following subsections. Character, identity, architecture, and siting variation incorporated into a development shall be considered the standard for all PUDs, such as: exceptional landscaping, streetscapes, and site design; open spaces and plazas, use of native plantings, and pedestrianway treatments, and recreational areas; siting, visual focal points, use of existing physical features, and variation in building setbacks and building grouping (such as clustering); and design features, street sections, architectural styles, harmonious use of materials, parking areas broken by landscaping features and varied use of housing types. a. Public facility site Dedications including, but not be limited to, the following: school site, transit facility, park and ride lot, and public facility such as a library, recreation center, police, fire, or emergency medical services station. Lands considered for this purpose must be sufficient in size and scope to accommodate specific public need(s), free of encumbrances, pose no health or safety issues, and serve the public interests as determined by the E+t-Council in order to qualify for this designation and the ensuing acceptance. Land dedicated for public use may be eligible for bonus density opportunity; fifteen percent (15%). b. Workforce/affordable housing, a maximum increase of ten percent (10%) for those projects providing workforce/affordable housing. Workforce/affordable housing shall be measured against the eligible income limits recognized by SEICAA for Bannock County.

STREETSCAPES IN RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL AREAS D. NON-RESIDENTIAL USES AND DESIGN STANDARDS: E. NON-RESIDENTIAL SIGN AND MONUMENT STANDARDS 18.20.010: PURPOSE AND INTENT: A. Purpose: It is the policy of the city to guide major land development projects, and the purpose of this district is to encourage innovation and special features in development by embracing and promoting projects proposing any of the following, but not necessarily all: 1. A combination of land uses and development patterns in harmony with development intensity, multi- modal transportation, community design, and community facilities objectives of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan; however, unless otherwise stated in this section, a mix of land uses or housing types is not required in a PUD. 2. A maximum choice of living environments by allowing a variety of housing and structure types, permitting an increased density per acre, and accepting a reduction in lot dimensions, yards, setback, and area requirements. A more useful network of bicycle and pedestrian paths, open space, and recreation areas accessible to all and supportive of healthy commuting and active living, and if included as part of a mixed use project, more convenience in access to employment and services. 4. A reasonable standard for architectural features and other designs to enhance the long-term investment of development within the community and to provide incentives for such development. A more efficient use of land than is generally achieved through conventional development, resulting in substantial savings through shorter utilities and streets, and incentives to reduce future demands on energy and other resources. A development pattern which preserves and utilizes natural topography and geologic features, scenic vistas, suitable trees and other vegetation, and prevents the disruption of natural drainage patterns. B. Intent: The intent of the PUD Zone is to further the policies of the City of Chubbuck comprehensive plan to a greater extent than would a traditional zone, by providing a zoning district with a better mix and arrangement of land uses than are typically found separately in mutually exclusive, traditional zoning districts to: 1. Promote the public health, safety, and welfare; 2. Reduce suburban sprawl, under -developed sites, and agricultural land development on the ex -urban fringe; 3. Promote increased community interactions through careful site development which emphasizes pedestrian and bicycle modalities; 4. Encourage a variety of housing types and affordability that accommodate residents' needs through all stages of life; 5. Establish reasonable design standards for development and redevelopment within the PUD in order to ensure that the built environment is sustainably desirable and stable, that property values are stable and maintained, and to enhance the image of the City of Chubbuck; and 6. Allow for innovative designs that create visually pleasing and cohesive patterns of development and multi -modal transportation. 18.20.020: RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER LAND USE REGULATIONS: Whenever there is a difference between the provisions of this chapter and those of other chapters, the provisions of this chapter shall prevail. Unless otherwise authorized, subjects not governed by this chapter shall be governed by the respective provisions found elsewhere in this title. 18.20.030: ELIGIBILITY: The planned unit development process is not intended to skirt development rules nor result in a detrimental impact on the surrounding community through its implementation. A. Eligibility: A PUD may be permitted if a developer desires flexibility from specific conformance with zoning regulations as applicable to individual lots or traditional subdivision regulations provided they can meet the requirements for a PUD located within this chapter. The PUD process is intended to provide flexibility, latitude, and relief from the provisions of the zoning ordinance only if the proposed development is consistent with two (2) or more of the following instances: 1. The development offers a maximum choice of living environments by allowing a variety of housing and building types. 2. The development promotes mixed use projects which are functionally integrated within the development and provides services or benefit to the primary use. For the purposes of this chapter, a mixed use project means the incorporation of more than one of the following land use groups: residential, commercial, industrial, and civic/institutional. 3. The development provides a layout which preserves and properly utilizes natural topography and geologic features, historic resources, scenic vistas, and beneficial trees or other vegetation. 4. The development parcel is constrained or otherwise limited by some obstacle, feature, geometry, condition, or easement that interferes with applying standard development processes. 5. The development qualifies as infill per this chapter. 6. The development encourages infill that further implements the City of Chubbuck comprehensive plan and other plans, such as for parks or the downtown area. B. Minimum Area: 1. Residential: A PUD shall contain an area of not less than one (1) acre. 2. Commercial, Industrial, or Mixed Uses: A PUD shall contain an area of not less than three (3) acres. 3. Downtown Area: For a Residential, Mixed Use or Commercial PUD in the Downtown Area there shall be no minimum area requirement, but design must accommodate requirements of this code. 4. Residential Infill PUD: There shall be no minimum area requirement for a PUD meeting the infill standards per section 18.20.60.E, but design must accommodate requirements of this code. 5. For the purposes of this chapter, the downtown area shall be defined with the following boundary: Union Pacific Railroad on the east, Interstate Highway 86 on the south, a line approximately 400 feet west of Yellowstone Avenue on the west, and a line approximately 300 feet north of Chubbuck Road on the north. Parcels northwest of the Yellowstone Avenue and Chubbuck Road intersection are included in this description. Sites over 5 acres are also eligible for Creative Community (CC) zoning and development. Qualifying sites are encouraged to consider development as a CC. C. Ownership and Direction: A PUD shall be developed under single ownership or direction or be the subject of a joint application by the owners of all property included. An application for approval of a PUD may be filed by a person or persons having contractual interest in the property, but must include written consent of the recorded owner or owners of property included in the development. Unless otherwise provided as a condition for approval of a PUD, the applicant may transfer units of any development for which approval has been granted; provided, that the transferee shall complete, use, and maintain each such unit in conformance with the approved PUD Master Development Plan (hereinafter referred to as "MDP"). Perpetual maintenance arrangements of common areas shall be arranged in the Codes, Covenants, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) as described in 18.20.040.D. D. Qualifying Locations: A PUD Zone may be proposed in any part of the City. 18.20.40: PROCEDURE FOR APPROVAL OF A PUD: PUDs are allowed in any area within the city; provided the following procedure is utilized and the plan is approved by the City Council (hereinafter referred to as "Council") after appropriate public hearing and review by the Land Use and Development Commission (hereinafter referred to as "Commission"). In reviewing any PUD, the Commission and the Council shall take into account the criteria and standards set forth in subsection 18.28.040.0 of this title. A. Discretionary Powers: Following the spirit and purpose of this chapter, much greater latitude is permitted than in conventional and traditional regulations for development density and intensity. In consideration of the latitude given, the Commission and Council shall have discretionary powers in judging and approving or disapproving the imaginative or unique concepts, innovations, and designs which shall be incorporated into the plans presented, provided that the planned unit development shall conform to the general purposes and objectives of the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan. B. Planning Conference: The developer shall meet with the public works director in a Planning Conference as described in 17.12.020 to discuss submission of a PUD zone and MDP application. The purpose of this meeting is to review early and informally the purpose and effect of this title and the criteria and standards contained herein, and to familiarize the developer with the Comprehensive Plan and land use and development regulations. C. Optional Sketch Plan Review: After holding a Planning Conference, and before applying for a PUD zone and MDP, the developer may elect to present a sketch plan of the proposed PUD to the Commission and Council for review and comment as business items with each body. A sketch plan is not a formal PUD application, and comments or feedback from the Commission and Council shall be non-binding. A PUD sketch plan review shall include, at a minimum: 1. Items 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 from subsection D below, 2. For residential areas, the proposed density, number of units by type and location, and the amenities and other incentives allowing increased density, and For non-residential areas and land uses, the proposed uses by type and location, height, parking, and open space variations, and the amenities and other incentives allowing greater intensity. D. PUD Zone and MDP: An application for a PUD zone and a MDP shall be filed concurrently with the public works director by a property owner or person having existing interest in the property for which the PUD is proposed. Together the applications shall follow the process and procedures described in 18.28 for a zoning map amendment. Application for an associated preliminary plat may be filed at the same time; procedures for the plat shall follow the process and requirements as described in Title 17. The PUD MDP application, as an addendum to the PUD zone application, shall contain the following information: 2 1. Aerial image showing the site location, acreage, boundary, scale, and north arrow, accompanied by a legal description of the property. 2. Concept plan/map of the PUD with proposed land use locations, concept for open space, pathways, and amenities, and existing and proposed streets. 3. Proposed schedule and phasing plan for the development of the site, and evidence that the applicant can initiate the proposed development plan within two (2) years. 4. Existing features of the development site, including all transportation systems, waterways, major utilities, easements, floodplain boundaries, structures, and major areas of woodlands or other native vegetation, 5. Topography and significant natural features on and adjacent to the property. 6. Proposed design and architecture guidelines, and architectural and special features to be included to qualify for increased development intensity/density, per 18.20.60.D and 18.20.70. A design manual for the development, including building elevations and heights, type and color of building materials with emphasis on architectural design and aesthetic value, color renderings of building materials and structures, landscape standards, and other architectural features such as street furniture, public art, or site-specific sign standards. Photographs of similar developments, whether developed by applicant or others, may be provided. 7. For residential areas, the proposed density, number of units by type and location, street pattern and lots, and the amenities and other incentives justifying the request for increased density if desired. For non- residential areas and land uses, the proposed intensity, justification for any proposed height increases, parking and open space variations; approximate square footage, preliminary site plans, and the amenities and other incentives allowing greater intensity. 8. Statement of eligibility of the project, per 18.20.030, including qualifications for infill or downtown recognition. 9. Streetscape standards, and landscaping plans for open space, pathways, and recreation areas. 10. Requested deviations in zoning standards, per 18.20.060, including proposed internal and external setbacks, and plans for perimeter transitions. The MDP application shall be accompanied by a written statement by the developer setting forth the reasons why, in his opinion, the PUD and associated deviations from city zoning and street standards would be in the public interest. 11. Engineering feasibility studies and plans showing, as necessary, water, sewer, irrigation, drainage, and waste disposal facilities; street improvements and cross-sections if they differ from city standards. The plan shall show the adequacy of the utilities and streets proposed are suitable and adequate to carry anticipated loads, and increased densities will not be such as to overload the utility and street networks outside the PUD. 12. Evidence of unified ownership or control. 13. Deed restrictions, protective covenants, CC&Rs, and other legal statements or devices to be used to control the use, development, and maintenance of the land and the improvements thereon, including those areas which are to be commonly owned and maintained. 14. Any other appropriate supplementary information that may also be required by the Public Works Director. 15. Where any information required by this section is similar to information required to be presented by the developer for a preliminary plat in compliance with title 17 of this code or the PUD zone application, such information may be utilized for both purposes. However, consideration and approval of a subdivision shall occur by separate presentation and action. E. Within sixty (60) days after receipt of the application, the Commission shall recommend to the Council that the MDP be approved as presented, approved with supplementary conditions or disapproved. The Commission shall then transmit all files constituting the record and the recommendation to the Council. The Council shall review the MDP and approve, approve with supplementary conditions or deny said plan. Upon granting or denying the application, the Council shall specify: a. The ordinance and standards used in evaluating the application. b. The reasons for approval or denial. F. The MDP shall be adopted as an exhibit to the ordinance which establishes the specific PUD Zone. The MDP, or portions thereof, may be amended per the process outlined in 18.20.050. A development agreement between the City and the applicant may be required by the City Council and executed before the zoning designation shall be effective. G. The approval of a MDP for a PUD shall be effective for a period not to exceed two (2) years. If no construction has begun within two (2) years after approval has been issued, it shall expire. An extension of the time limit may be approved, without further hearing or recommendation by the Commission, if the Council finds that such extension is not in conflict with the public interest. 18.20.050: PROCEDURES FOR AMENDMENT OF A PUD PLAN: A. Major PUD Amendment Process: The Commission shall hold a public hearing before forming a recommendation to the Council. The Council may approve the amendment as a business item. Major amendments include but are not limited to: 1. Change in the proposed land uses; 2. Change or conflict with any condition of approval; 3. Change in the street pattern, particularly if it would negatively impact adjoining property as determined by the Public Works Director; 4. Increase in overall density or intensity of use that exceeds: a. One percent (1%) of the approved number of dwelling units or 1 additional unit, whichever is less; or b. Ten percent (10%) of the total approved building square footage or height; 5. Decrease of more than ten percent (10%) of the number of approved parking spaces; 6. Change in the proposed phasing sequence of the PUD; 7. Decrease in the amount of required or proposed open space or landscaping equal to or exceeding ten percent (10%) of the approved amount; 8. Decreases in any setback by more than ten percent (10%) of the approved amount; and 9. Any other proposed change deemed by the Public Works Director to be a major change. B. Minor PUD Amendment Administrative Process: The Public Works Director may review and approve proposed minor amendments to an approved PUD without requiring an additional application to the Commission and Council if: 1. The proposed amendment does not conflict with any imposed conditions of approval; and 2. Does not increase the overall density or intensity of use by: a. One percent (1%) of the approved number of dwelling units; or b. More than ten percent (10%) of the total approved building square footage or height; 3. Does not decrease the number of approved parking spaces by more than ten percent (10%); 4. Does not decrease any setback by more than ten percent (10%) of the approved amount. 5. Does not relocate any public right-of-way, unless required by any governmental agency; and Does not change any requirement for the payment of monies or the dedication of land or other property rights. 18.20.060 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS: A. General Requirements: Land Use and Development: In compliance with the Future Land Use Map and the District -Zone Conversation Chart in the Comprehensive Plan, the table below provides guidance for what uses are generally acceptable within a PUD.

The uses within the PUD will be interconnected through a system of roadways and pathways as appropriate. c. Clustering of buildings is encouraged to increase efficiency in land use and in public utility delivery. d. In addition to residential and other allowed uses, up to twenty percent (20%) of the gross land area may be directed to other uses that are not allowed within the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Designation area, provided that: i. The uses are appropriate with the primary use. ii. The uses are intended to serve principally the properties within the PUD and adjacent areas. iii. The uses are integrated into the PUD. iv. The uses are located and so designed as to provide direct access to a collector or an arterial street without creating congestion or traffic hazards. v. A minimum of fifty percent (50%) of the primary use development occurs prior to the development of the specially permitted uses. e. Proposed non-residential land uses that would require a Conditional Use Permit in the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use area, as well as land uses as described in subsection 1.e. above, shall also require a notice with the MDP public hearing notice. Such uses proposed within a PUD after approval, but not included in the development plan, shall require a Conditional Use Permit and MDP amendment. PUDs in areas with a Future Land Use Designation of Commercial or Employment in the Comprehensive Plan must not be exclusively residential but shall include non-residential land uses. The mix of residential and non-residential land uses shall be appropriate for the site location and design, as determined by the Commission and Council. Exceptions may be made for qualified infill parcels, particularly in the downtown area as defined in section 18.20.30.6. Waivers and Adjustments: The Council may grant waivers or adjustments to the requirements for public or private street widths, setbacks or other design standards if such waivers are deemed appropriate for 12 the development after considering surrounding uses and aesthetics. Special consideration may be given for PUDs in infill areas. a. Zoning Standards: The developer may deviate from the height, lot line setback, and lot dimension schedule found in chapters 18.08 and 18.12. Deviations shall be listed in full as a part of the planned unit development application. Modifications to other zoning and subdivision standards will be determined by the Commission and Council on a case by case basis. ii. Residential setbacks shall not be reduced between sidewalks and garages to less than twenty feet (20'). b. Municipal Standards: The following standards may be modified if requested as part of the PUD approval process and if deemed appropriate by the Council upon advice of the Public Works Director, and other staff as applicable, after considering whether the resulting development would achieve greater consistency with the intent and purpose of this chapter than development that would occur without the modification: i. Any provision in title 16 of this Code pertaining to streets and sidewalks; ii. Any provision pertaining to off-street parking and loading except that at least one of the required parking spaces per residential unit shall be located a reasonable walking distance, except as required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). iii. Other provisions of this Code on a case-by-case basis. 3. Height, Setback, and Perimeter Transitions: Comprehensive Plan Land Use LDR MDR HDR MU C E Maximum Height 35' 35' 45' 45' 70' 70' Minimum Setback from R-1, R-2, R -2P Zoning or Single Family Homes 10' 10' 20' 20' 30' 30' Minimum Setback from R-3, R-4, and Non -Residential Zoning 10' 10' 10' 10' 10' 10' See 18.20.60.E for exceptions and incentives regarding building height and perimeter setback. In addition: a. Standard zoning setback requirements shall not apply to structures on the interior of the project, but shall follow the approved MDP for the site and adopted building codes. b. A proposed PUD shall incorporate height, density, and landscaping transition designs along the development's perimeter to achieve an orderly transition to existing residential development on adjacent properties. Buildings or sites proposed to be adjacent to the perimeter of the PUD should be no more than 50 percent (50%) higher nor fifty percent (50%) more dense than the residential development that is adjacent to the PUD's perimeter. 2. Buildings adjacent to existing homes should have similar roof styles/roof lines as the pre-existing development, such as pitched roofs next to pitched roofs. 13 c. Industrial development in a PUD adjacent to any residential uses or zoning shall include a landscaped buffer that is at least ten feet (10') wide within the setback. The landscaped buffer shall be planted with an evergreen hedge or a dense planting of trees and shrubs. If using a buffer of trees and shrubs it shall include some evergreen species appropriate to the site. d. For the purposes of this section, residential uses across an arterial street from a non-residential use shall not be considered adjacent, but shall be considered adjacent if located across a local or collector street. 4. Building Permits and Architectural Features: When applying for a building permit for structures or signs within a PUD, the applicant shall include a letter or checklist verifying that the structure satisfies the architectural requirements of this chapter and the conditions of approval of the PUD. A similar letter or checklist may be required for the Design Review phase of a development to verify conformance with the approved open space and landscaping conditions of the PUD. 6. Water Conservation in Landscaping: In landscaped areas in PUDs, other than recreation areas and managed natural areas, at least 33% of the area shall incorporate and maintain a ground cover other than lawn or turf grasses, and that consumes less water than lawn or turf grasses. 7. Utilities: Underground utilities, including telephone and electrical systems, are required within the limits of all PUDs. Appurtenances to these systems which can be effectively screened may be exempted from this requirement if the Commission and Council finds that such exemption will not violate the intent or character of the proposed PUD. 8. Mechanical Equipment: In all areas of the PUD, mechanical equipment including but not limited to HVAC on roofs, walls or ground, must be visually screened from adjoining front yards and streets. B. COMMON OPEN SPACE AND PATHWAYS IN RESIDENTIAL PUDs: The provisions of this section apply to residential PUDs and to the Net Residential Area of mixed use PUDs. 1. A minimum of fifteen percent (1 S%) of the gross land area developed in any residential PUD project shall be reserved for common open space and recreational facilities for the residents or users of the area being developed. Front, side, and rear yard setback areas and minimum building to building separation, shall not be included in the calculation of the common open space provided. 2. The required amount of common open space land reserved under a PUD shall either be held in corporate ownership by owners of the project area for the use of each owner who buys property within the development, or if approved by the Council be dedicated to the public and retained as common open space for parks, recreation, and related uses. The responsibility for the maintenance of all open spaces shall be specified by the developer and approved by the Council before approval of the PUD MDP. 3. Diversity in the design and use of common open space, open land, parks, and common areas is encouraged, and approval shall bejudged as to its appropriateness based on the following criteria: a. Areas intended for public use shall be freely accessible from streets and/or other common areas that have unrestricted entry. The configuration of such space shall be to accommodate parks, play fields, and play areas as directed by the city. b. Pocket parks, courtyards, and similar common areas for internal use are encouraged within PUDs so as to convey a sense of openness and community within the neighborhood. Pocket parks shall be privately maintained unless approved by the Council. 14 c. Public utility and similar easements or right-of-way for watercourses and other channels are not acceptable for common open space dedication unless such land or right-of-way is usable as a trail or similar purpose. The common open space must be usable ground and not wasteland with no other practical purpose. Consideration may be given to a managed area with a natural setting such as a natural wooded area or a natural sage and grass area. Drainage or stormwater retention is permitted in common areas. 4. If possible, every property developed under the PUD approach should be designed to abut upon common open space or similar areas. A clustering of dwellings is encouraged so that open space is accessible to as many residents of the PUD as possible. a. Open space and trails shall be designed so that a minimum of 75% of all multi -family structures (with 3 or more residential units per building) and a minimum of 50% of all single family, duplex, and twin home lots shall be adjacent to or have direct access to the open space, pathway, or trail. For the purposes of this section, the term "direct access" means lots or multi -family buildings are located a maximum of two hundred fifty feet (250') away from an off-street trail connecting to a common area open space lot or recreation amenity. b. Building lots separated from a common area open space lot by a local street shall be deemed to have achieved direct access if a pedestrian crossing meeting ADA standards connects the two. Trail System Requirements: Exclusive of required sidewalks within or adjacent to a public right-of-way, a public pedestrian or bicycle circulation system is required to connect to existing or planned pedestrian or bicycle routes adjacent to the project. In residential PUDs greater than 3 acres in size or 40 residential units, trails connecting residential units to internal open space and/or recreation sites are required. The minimum width of internal trails other than sidewalks shall be 6 feet, but greater widths may be required by the City after considering connections to adopted trail plans and anticipated use. C. REQUIRED AMENITIES IN RESIDENTIAL PUDS: Two (2) or more of the following amenities shall be provided as part of each residential PUD or the Net Residential Area of a mixed use PUD, and shall be commensurate with the size and planned population of the development. 1. Additional landscaped open space of at least ten percent (10%) of the gross area (25% total). Minimum landscape ordinance requirements and landscaping in building setback and separation requirements will not be counted as an amenity. 2. Private active recreational facilities such as a playground, picnic area, basketball or tennis court, swimming pool, clubhouse, etc., of a size suitable to meet the needs of the development. 3. Golf courses, but regardless of its size no golf course may contribute more than one-quarter of the common open space required by this section. 4. Provision for a neighborhood park or other public open space or improved trailhead, with public access thereto. 5. Greenways and waterways that include pedestrian ways, trails, bike paths, and equestrian trails linking residential areas with other open space uses. These may be constructed on public utility or other easements or canal right-of-way, and may be dedicated to the City or a non-profit entity. Greenways and waterways differ in scale from required trail systems described in subsection B above, and may include natural areas, seating/rest areas or other appropriate facilities. 6. Other amenities as may be approved by the Commission and Council on a case-by-case basis. 15 For the purposes of this section, a recreational facility that can simultaneously serve eight percent (8%) to ten percent (10%) of the projected PUD population at any given time shall be deemed commensurate with the size and needs of the development. D. RESIDENTIAL DENSITY: 1. The base allowable residential density for a PUD is established per the Future Land Use Designation area in the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan as follows: a. Low Density Residential (LDR): 5 units per acre b. Medium Density Residential (MDR): 8 units per acre c. High Density Residential (HDR): 16 units per acre d. Mixed Use (MU): 16 units per acre e. Commercial: 16 units per acre f. Employment: 16 units per acre 2. To provide for an incentive for quality planned unit developments, the Council may authorize an increased density of up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the allowable number of dwelling units or structures, as appropriate, taking into consideration the factors set forth in the following subsections. Character, identity, architecture, and siting variation incorporated into a development shall be considered the standard for all PUDs, such as: exceptional landscaping, streetscapes, and site design; open spaces and plazas, use of native plantings, and pedestrianway treatments, and recreational areas; siting, visual focal points, use of existing physical features, and variation in building setbacks and building grouping (such as clustering); and design features, street sections, architectural styles, harmonious use of materials, parking areas broken by landscaping features and varied use of housing types. a. Public facility site dedications including, but not be limited to, the following: school site, transit facility, park and ride lot, and public facility such as a library, recreation center, police, fire, or emergency medical services station. Lands considered for this purpose must be sufficient in size and scope to accommodate specific public need(s), free of encumbrances, pose no health or safety issues, and serve the public interests as determined by the Council in order to qualify for this designation and the ensuing acceptance. Land dedicated for public use may be eligible for bonus density opportunity; fifteen percent (15%). b. Workforce/affordable housing, a maximum increase of ten percent (10%) for those projects providing workforce/affordable housing. Workforce/affordable housing shall be measured against the eligible income limits recognized by SEICAA for Bannock County. The developer shall present recommendations from SEICAA or other findings and examples relative to the housing provided to qualify units as affordable. A general guideline for affordability may include the number of bedrooms relative to the income limits by household size. i. Affordable units must be dispersed throughout the development, if possible. ii. Up to 5% for a PUD with 4 affordable units or 2% of all units, whichever is greater; or iii. Up to 10 % for a PUD with 8 affordable units or 5% of all units, whichever is greater. c: Architectural features: Inclusion of at least three (3) of the following components on or affecting all residential structures throughout the development; ten percent (10%): i. Any of the architectural features suggested in section 18.20.070.13 that were not incorporated in the PUD to meet the requirements of that section. ii. Enhanced paving and design features at intersections, courtyards, driveways, etc. iii. Staggered setbacks for adjacent homes, townhouses, etc. iv. The use of green building components such as, but not limited, to the following: a. Permeable pavement on parking areas or driveways. b. Renewable energy systems, such as solar panels. c. Selective window orientation, shading and other treatments with building placement to preserve solar access and/or improve heating/cooling efficiency. d. Use of landscaping or natural topography, and energy-efficient building layout, for natural windbreaks and shade in clustered or multi -family developments. v. The proposed architectural features for the PUD shall be included in the MDP application described in 18.20.40.D. Any latitude, flexibility or relief provided through a PUD application shall be compensated by the addition of some new amenity, within or outside the development. Such an amenity should provide equal or greater value to the development as a whole. The determination of whether the compensation offered is equal to or greater than the relief provided is left to the discretion of Commission and Council. E. RESIDENTIAL INFILL DEVELOPMENTS: 1. Lots and parcels within the city, or annexing into the city, may be considered for infill PUD status if it meets the following criteria: a. Location: i. Lie in areas already substantially developed defined as at least sixty percent (60%) of the land area within 300 feet of the boundaries of the parcel (excluding streets, waterways, etc.); or ii. Lie in the downtown area as described in section 18.20.030.8. b. Services: Sites where municipal services (sewer, water, fire, and police) are already available may qualify for infill development. c. The applicant shall submit with the application verification that the site qualifies as an infill site. This verification may include recent aerial photographs and maps to document the availability to the site of water, sewer, fire flow, and fire protection. 2. Developments recognized as infill are allowed a twenty percent (20%) increase in density over the base density per subsection D above. 3. Based on the design and proposed amenities, the Commission may recommend, and the Council may approve: a. An additional five percent (5%) increase in the density allowed for the site as an infill incentive; or 17 b. A modification of the amenity requirements set forth in sections 18.20.060.13 and 18.20.060.0 of this chapter. NON-RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AMENITIES AND INCENTIVES: Open Space: A minimum of fifteen percent (15%) of the gross land area developed in a non-residential PUD, or non-residential part of a mixed use PUD, shall be landscaped and reserved for common open space. Front, side, and rear yard setback areas, minimum building to building separation, and required parking area landscaping shall not be included in the calculation of the common open space provided. a. Public utility and similar easements or right-of-way for watercourses and other channels are not acceptable for open space dedication unless such land or right-of-way is usable as a trail or similar purpose allowing bicycle and pedestrian access or circulation for employees and customers, as well as residents in mixed use PUDs. The common open space must be usable ground and not wasteland with no other practical purpose. Consideration may be given to a managed area with a natural setting such as a natural wooded area or a natural sage and grass area. Drainage or stormwater retention is permitted in common areas. b. The common open space required by this section may be reduced by the Council by 25% in non- residential areas if it can be demonstrated that the common open space and parking areas are: Landscaped in an exceptional manner which exceeds the minimum planting and placement standards imposed in this code, including but not limited to two or more of the following features or other proposed designs: 1. The use of drought -tolerant landscaping throughout the development; 2. The use of ground covers other than lawn or turf grasses, and that consumes less water than lawn or turf grasses, on at least 67% of the landscaped area, other than recreation areas or managed natural areas; 3. If using stone for ground cover, eliminating the use of gravel, stone, or crushed stone with an average size less than four inches (4"); 4.
