The Amendment would allow for expansion of the school building. The subject property of approximately 9.6 acres is located at 4200 Hawthorne Rd, Chubbuck, Idaho. The application will be reviewed against criteria in section 18.28.020.C.5 of City Code. Type of Action: Decision. STAFF FINDINGS: After reviewing the application and related materials, staff finds that it meets the standards established by the City for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and has met requirements for the application to be heard by the Commission. • Schools are conditionally permitted in the General Commercial (C-2) zone. The Design Review Committee has reviewed the site plan against technical requirements of the City as required by city code and requested revisions from the developer; the committee's recommendations are reflected in the site plan included with this report. The Committee did not approve the use and only reviewed technical requirements: o The committee directly reviews and approves such details as parking, landscaping, access, utility services, and sanitation. o The Land Use and Development Commission may approve other or more stringent conditions on the proposal. • Staff recommends approval of the proposed CUP and Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. FACTS BACKGROUND: In 2022 the LUDC granted a CUP for Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 to convert the former Allstate building at 4200 Hawthorne Rd into a school — the Portneuf Valley Technical Education Campus. The District received a grant to expand the campus to accommodate all of the Certified Technical Education (CTE) programs offered. The building, used as a school, functions under a CUP and any change such as an expansion requires an amendment to the CUP. TYPE OF COMMISSION ACTION: Quasi -Judicial (Subject to appeal; decisions must be supported by the evidence and by applying law to the facts; decisions shall be based on the criteria and standards for approval per section 18.28.020.C.5 of City Code).

Explanation of how the use meets the Standards for Approving a CIDP (use additional sheet if necessary): 2. How is the proposed change be in conformance with the goals, objectives, and policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan? School District #25 will bring approximately 250 students and staff at varying times through -out the day to study and learn inside this building. This number will be achieved with the added building that will house Welding, Construction, and First Responders courses. 3. How is the proposed change compatible with other existing or permitted uses in the general vicinity? Have changes been made to the proposal to enhance compatibility? Gem Prep school Is located within 300' of this building but has its own dedicated parking. Home Depot is located directly north of this site, again it has its own dedicated parking. Home Depot has partnered with the Pocatello / Chubbuck School District CTE programs in the past and this location would hopefully strengthen this partnership. The addition of this building will allow this and other partnerships with Chubbuck employers. 4. How is the proposed use harmonious in scale, mass, coverage, density, and intensity with all adjacent permitted land uses? Original uses of the facility and parking lot was approved for 500-r staff and learners during the day. The school district originally anticipated only using about one-half of the amount of individuals at this building and parking lot throughout the entire day. We have noticed that many students choose to ride the bus provided by the School District. This addition will eliminate approximately 50 parking stalls. It should also be noted that the school district, being a good community partner, has allowed the INL to use the West parking lot for their shuttle service to their site. However, we can regain many of these parking spots by giving them 90 days notice. 5. Are there any elements of the proposed use which could create undue burdens on transportation, police, fire, EMS protection, water/sewer, schools, or other public agencies or facilities in the vicinity? If so, how are the impacts being mitigated? The new addition would not create undue burdens on the City of Chubbuck's agencies.
