We have reviewed this submittal and offer the following comments, as conditions of the applicant. These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council. APPLICATION SUMMARY The applicant, Calderwood Community, LLC, has requested approval of a rezone of 9.47 acres from R-4 to R-15 and L -O. The applicant is requesting that 6.22 acres be rezoned to R-15 and that 3.06 acres be rezoned to L -O. The Comprehensive Plan depicts the subject property as Medium Density Residential (3 to 8 du/acre). Staff feels that the existing conditions and the proposed Consistency Matrix support the proposed zone changes. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the Consistency Matrix on April 1, 2004. Meridian's City Council will hear the application for the matrix on April 27, 2004. The Consistency Matrix is an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan which would allow applicants to request L -O zoning in residential areas along arterials and section line roads. If the Matrix is not approved by Council the applicant will not be able to request L -O zoning. RZ-04-004, PFP-04.007, CUP -04-008 Southwoods.RZTRCUP Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council April 29, 2004 (Hearing Date) Page 2 The applicant also requests a conditional use permit (CUP) for a Planned Development. The Planned development will allow the applicant to request reduced lot sizes and frontages for the proposed subdivision lots. The applicant is requesting a reduction in the minimum lots sizes for the L -O district to allow 5,453 square foot lots, a reduction in the 50' frontage requirement for the L -O zone, and the ability to access the L -O lots with a common drive. The Planned Development will consist of one common lot and 18 building lots including 14 office lots and 4 multi -family residential lots. Seventy-two residential units will be located on the 4 multi -family lots. The 72 residential units are a part of a senior living community which is made up of 26 independent living units, an assisted living center and an Alzheimer's Living Center. The assisted living center and Alzheimer's living center each have their own buildings. The independent living units are one and two bedroom apartments clustered into four-plexes and six-plexes. The proposed light office lots will have frontage on Meridian Road. The assisted living facility is located west of the light office lots. All proposed lots will take access off of Calderwood Drive. LOCATION & SURROUNDING USES The subject property is located at 2090 S. Meridian Road, approximately '/2 mile south of the southeast intersection on Overland Road and Meridian Road. The following uses surround the subject property: North —Calderwood Drive borders the subject property to the north. The property immediately to the north of Calderwood Drive is zoned RUT (Ada County.) South — Single Family Residential, zoned R4. A residential subdivision has been proposed for the property. East — Meridian Greens Subdivision, a residential subdivision with R-4 zoning, is located immediately to the east of the subject property West Meridian Road is located immediately west of the subject property. Bear Creek Subdivision, a residential subdivision with R-8 zoning is located west of Meridian Road. OWNER OF RECORD The owner of record is Calderwood Community, LLC, who has given consent for the applicant to submit the requested applications. RZ-04-004, PR04007, CUP -04008 Soulhwoods.RZ.PP.CUP Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council April 29, 2004 (Hearing Date) Page 3 STANDARDS FOR ZONING AMENDMENT The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amen&nent in terms of thefollowing standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the following questions about the proposed zoning amendment (11-15-11): A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a Comprehensive plan amendment; Staff finds that the requested R-15 zoning designation is in accord with the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map. The Future Land Use Map delineates the subject property as Medium Density Residential (up to 8 du/acre), however, a note on the map allows applicants to request a "step up" in density. The proposed development will have a density of 9.08 du/acre. The request for R-15 (up to 15 du/acre) zoning represents one "step up" from the comprehensive plan designation ofMedium Density Residential. The proposed L-0 zoning is supported by the proposed Land Use Consistency Matrix Comprehensive Plan Amendment which will go to Meridian's City Council April 27, 2004. B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be re -zoned in the future; Staff finds that the proposed re -zone and accompanying development plans comply with the requested zone and staff does not anticipate that the property will be rezoned in the future. C. b the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning; Staff finds that the applicant has submitted development plans for a Conditional Use Permit for the property. Staff fiwther finds that the proposed planned development will only be allowed with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit in the proposed zones. D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that the area should be rezoned; Staff finds that the subject property's location on S. Meridian Road, an arterial road dictates that the area fronting Meridian Road may be rezoned to L-0 (with the adoption of the Consistency Matrix.) The Comprehensive Plan designation of Medium Density Residential qualifies the eastern half of the subject property to request a "step up" in density to High Density Residential. The proposed four-plex and six-plex units in the proposed assisted living center are not allowed uses without R-15 (High Density Residential) zoning. E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the essential character of the RZ-04-004, PP -04-007, CUP -04-008 S= iww&.RZ.PP.CUP Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council April 29, 2004 (Hearing Date) Page 4 same area; Staff finds that the proposed development is designed in a manner that will be harmonious with the intended character of the area. The proposed light office uses are appropriate for the subject property's location on an arterial road and the proposed assisted living center is compatible with the surrounding residential areas. F. Will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses; Staff finds that the requested rezone should not be disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses. The Commission and Council should consider all public testimony, oral and written, before making this finding. G. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as highways, street, police, and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for the establishment of proposed conditional use shall be able to provide adequately any such service; Staff finds that the proposed uses can be adequately served by all essential public services and facilities with the planned improvements and those mentioned within this report. Drainage will need to be retained on site. H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community; Staff finds that the requested uses will not create excessive additional requirements at public costs for public facilities and services. Additionally, staff finds that the proposed rezone would not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. L Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment, and conditions that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors; Staff finds that the proposed L -O and R-15 zoning designations of the property do not inherently allow uses that will generate activities, processes, materials, equipment, and conditions that will be detrimental to the general welfare of the community. J. Will have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public streets; Staff finds that the proposed vehicular approaches on Calderwood Drive will not interfere with general traffic patterns on any public streets. Please refer to the ACRD staff report, dated March 23, 2004 for a full report on traffic issues. ITD has submitted a comment letter RM"04, PP -04-007, CUP -04-008 SoutUwoO&AZ.PP.CUP Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council April 29, 2004 (Hearing Date) Page 5 dated March 11, 2004 stating that on Principal Arterial Type IV intersections access is allowed only at intersections; all other approaches require special permitting. K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of natural or scenic feature of major importance. Staff finds that there are several existing mature trees on the site. Staff recommends that the applicant coordinate with the City Arborist, Elroy Huff, at the Parks Dept. for a determination on whether the applicant must mitigate for any removed trees. This determination should be done prior to the next hearing on this project. L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City; Staff finds that the proposed rezone would be in the best interest of the City by permitting L- O zoning for light office development located along a Principal Arterial street and by permitting "High Density Residential" (R-15) zoning which will allow an assisted living facility. It is important that Meridian plans for an aging population; the proposed assisted living facility will be a benefit to the City of Meridian. SITE SPECIFIC COMMENTS (Rezone) The legal description submitted with the application is accurate and meets the requirements of the City of Meridian and State Tax Commission, 2. The subject property is within the Urban Services Planning Area. A Development Agreement will not be necessary with this rezone. All conditions of approval will be made as part of the plat and conditional use permit.

North: 1.8 -acre site with single-family dwelling and the proposed Southern Springs Subdivision b. South: 4.74 -acre site with single-family dwelling c. East: Meridian Greens Subdivision d. West: Elk Run Subdivision 6. Impacted Roadways State Highway 69 Frontage: 390 -feet Functional Street Classification: Principal Arterial Traffic count: South of Overland Road was 21,966 on 10-22-02 Level of Service: Better than C Speed limit: 55 MPH Calderwood Drive Frontage: 665 -feet Functional Street Classification: Collector Traffic count: East of Highway 69 was 800 on 10-29-02 Level of Service: Better than C Speed limit: 20 MPH Roadway Improvements Adjacent To and Near the Site Calderwood Drive is currently improved with 30 -feet of pavement with no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. Calderwood Drive is improved with a 37 -foot street section with curb, gutter and sidewalk to the east of the site. State Highway 69 is currently improved with five traffic lanes with NO curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. 8. Existing Right -of -Way Calderwood Drive currently has a total of 126 -feet of right-of-way (60 -feet from centerline). State Highway 69 currently has a total of 50 to 60 -feet of right-of-way (30 -feet from centerline). 2 Existing Access to the Site The site currently has an existing driveway that intersects State Highway 69 approximately 140 -feet south of Calderwood Drive. 10. Site History The District has not previously reviewed a development application on this site. 11. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program The Overland Road/State Highway 69 intersection is programmed in the District's Five Year Work Program and Capital Improvements Plan to be reconstructed in the year 2007. The intersection will be reconstructed with 7 -lanes at each approach. This project is a collaborative project with the Idaho Transportation Department. B. Findings for Consideration Calderwood Drive - Collector District policy requires 70 -feet of right-of-way on collector roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of- way width allows for the construction of a 3 -lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5 -foot wide detached sidewalks and bike lanes. District policy 72-F1 B requires collector roadways to be constructed as a 46 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot detached (or 7 -foot attached) concrete sidewalk within 70 -feet of right- of-way with parking prohibited on both sides. District policy 72 -FIA, 7202.3.2 and 7202.3.5, requires that residential collectors be constructed as 36 -foot street sections with curb, gutter and 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalks with no front -on housing. The access restrictions for these street segments should be stated on the final plat. Unless otherwise noted, parking should be prohibited on these street segments. Coordinate the signage Program with District staff. Modification of Policy to Allow Calderwood to be constructed as a 36 -foot street section Calderwood Drive is classified as a collector roadway. Typically the District requires a standard collector roadway to be constructed as 46 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and sidewalk within 70 -feet of right-of-way. Calderwood Drive currently carries approximately 800 vehicle trips per day. This is one of the last parcels in the area that will add vehicle trips to Calderwood Drive. Due to the fact that the traffic volumes on Calderwood Drive are not anticipated to exceed 3,000 vehicle trips per day, staff recommends that the applicant construct Calderwood Drive as one half of a 36 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot concrete sidewalks within 50 -feet of right-of-way. By constructing Calderwood Drive as a 36 -foot street section, the District can stripe Calderwood Drive to provide two 11 -foot travel lanes with bike lanes on both sides of the roadway. Parking will be restricted on Calderwood Drive. The applicant should install signs that restrict parking on Calderwood Drive. 2. Roadway Offsets District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 150 -feet from a residential collector roadway (measured centerline to centerline). The applicant is proposing to construct a local commercial roadway that intersects Calderwood Drive approximately 340 -feet east of State Highway 69. This roadway location meets District policy and should be approved with this application. 3 3. Street Sections District policy 7202.8 and 72-F1 B, requires roadways abutting commercial developments to be constructed as a 40 -foot street section with curb, gutter and 5 -foot concrete sidewalk within 54 -feet of right-of-way. The applicant is proposing to construct the local commercial roadway as a 40 -foot street section as a 40 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot concrete sidewalks within 54 -feet of right-of- way. The proposed street section meets District policy and should be approved with this application. 4. Stub Streets District policy 7203.5.1 states that the street design in a proposed development shall cause no undue hardship to adjoining property. An adequate and convenient access to adjoining property for use in future development may be required. If a street ends at the development boundary, it shall meet the requirements of sub section 7205, `non -continuous streets.' District policy 7205.5 states that stub streets will be required to provide intra -neighborhood circulation or to provide access to adjoining properties. Stub streets will conform with the requirements described in Section 7204.5, 7204.6 and 7204.7, except a temporary cul-de-sac will not be required if the stub street has a length no greater than 150 -feet. A sign shall be installed at the terminus of the stub street stating that, 'THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE". In addition, a stub street must meet the following conditions: 1. A stub street shall be designed to slope towards the street intersection and drain surface water toward that intersection, unless a satisfactory storm drain system is installed. 2. The District may require appropriate covenants guaranteeing that the stub street will remain free of obstructions. The applicant is proposing to construct the commercial roadway to stub to the south property line approximately 350 -feet east of State Highway 69. This stub street will provide access to the 4.74 - acre parcel that is located directly to the south. Staff is supportive of the applicant's proposed stub street location. Rather than constructing a temporary turnaround at the terminus of the roadway, the applicant is proposing to grant the District a temporary easement within the driveway that accesses the proposed commercial street. The applicant should submit a description of the easement to the ACHD Plan Review Division for review and final approval. The applicant should install a sign at the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE". 5. Driveways District policy 72-F5, requires driveways located on collector or arterial roadways with a speed limit of 20 to align or offset a minimum of 105 -feet from any existing or proposed driveway. District policy 7207.9.3 restricts commercial driveways with daily traffic volumes over 1,000 vehicles to a maximum width of 35 -feet. Most commercial driveways will be constructed as curb -cut type facilities if located on local streets. Curb return type driveways with 15 -foot radii will be required for driveways accessing collector and arterial roadways. Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7207.9.1, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30 -feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway and install pavement tapers with 15 -foot radii abutting the existing roadway edge. 13 The applicant is proposing to construct a 20 -foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects Calderwood Drive approximately 210 -feet east of State Highway 69 and 105 -feet west of the proposed commercial street. This driveway location and width meets District policy and should be approved with this application. The applicant should construct the driveway with a 15 -foot curb radius (minimum). The applicant is proposing to construct a 30 -foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects Calderwood Drive approximately 235 -feet east of the proposed commercial street. This driveway location and width meets District policy and should be approved with this application. The applicant should construct the driveway with a 15 -foot curb radius (minimum). The applicant is proposing to construct a 25 -foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects the proposed commercial street approximately 250 -feet south of Calderwood Drive. This driveway location and width meets District policy and should be approved with this application. The applicant should construct the driveway with a 15 -foot curb radius (minimum). 6. State Highway 69 Meridian Road (SH 69) is under the jurisdiction of the Idaho Transportation Department. The application should contact ITD to determine what improvements and access points will be required on Meridian Road (SH 69). 7. Other Access Calderwood Drive is classified as a collector roadway. Access to collector roadways is restricted. Other than the access points that have specifically been approved with this application, direct lot access to Calderwood Drive is prohibited. Notes of the access restrictions should be noted on the final plat. C. Site Specific Conditions of Approval Construct Calderwood Drive as one half of a 36 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot concrete sidewalks within 50 -feet of right-of-way. Construct a local commercial roadway that intersects Calderwood Drive approximately 340 -feet east of State Highway 69, as proposed. 3. Construct the local commercial roadway as a 40 -foot street section as a 40 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot concrete sidewalks within 54 -feet of right-of-way, as proposed. 4. Construct the commercial roadway to stub to the south property line approximately 350 -feet east of State Highway 69, as proposed. Rather than constructing a temporary turnaround at the terminus of the roadway, grant the District a temporary easement within the driveway that accesses the proposed commercial street. Submit a description of the easement to the ACHD Plan Review Division for review and final approval. Install a sign at the terminus of the stub street stating that, 'THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE". 5. Construct a 20 -foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects Calderwood Drive approximately 210 -feet east of State Highway 69 and 105 -feet west of the proposed commercial street, as proposed. Construct the driveway with a 15 -foot curb radius (minimum). 6. Construct a 30 -foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects Calderwood Drive approximately 235 -feet east of the proposed commercial street, as proposed. Construct the driveway with a 15 -foot curb radius (minimum). Construct a 25 -foot wide curb return type driveway that intersects the proposed commercial street approximately 250 -feet south of Calderwood Drive, as proposed. Construct the driveway with a 15- - foot curb radius (minimum). 8. Comply with requirements of ITD for State Highway 69 frontage.

The new proposal requests a change to a density of R-15. The City of Meridian Future Land Use Map, states that a density can only be changed one step. We strongly encourage the commission to abide by its own rules. Our desire would be to keep the R-4 density, as that is the density most of the homeowners based their decision to purchase their homes upon. • We do not object to the L-0 (Light Office) request for the property adjacent to Meridian Road. It is highly unlikely anyone would want to build a home along such a busy highway. However, even in this case, there should a suitable buffer area around the perimeter of the property. The proposed plan for assisted living units and an Alzheimer's facility is unacceptable. First of all these facilities are NOT residential property; they are commercial enterprises, complete with many types of support staff, including nurses, aides, doctors, therapists, Janitors, cooks and maintenance, along with friends and family. It would be difficult to maintain that this degree of activity would not impact the quality of life of the existing neighborhood. Adverse impacts would include traffic, noise and lighting. Also, size is a major concern. Traffic has already become a problem with the new high school, and will only get worse with the development already approved for the property bordering Meridian Road and Overland. Motorists already detour through Calderwood when traffic backs up in rush hour. Another major concern with the proposed development is that of the future use of the Alzheimer's and assisted living units. Once a precedent has been establishing zoning the property as commercial, which these units certainly are, it would be a simple step to convert these units to rental property. The term "assisted living" can mean different things to different people. It can include younger disadvantaged families as well as the elderly, and the difference can mean substantial differences in the true population density. As stated in the paragraph dealing with the proposed Light Office change, each different type of facility should have suitable buffer zones between adjacent homes and between other facilities. Also, the safety of Alzheimer patients should be considered because of the 10 -Mile Creek drainage and proximity of a busy highway. Regardless of the type of development that is ultimately approved for Southwood Subdivision, we request strict rules for noise and dust abatement, and also request that the work site be maintained in an orderly fashion. This seems to be reasonable courtesy for neighbors whose property borders the Subdivision. As previously stated, the very best zoning for the proposed Southwood Subdivision continues to be R-4. The next best would be a gated community for residents aged 55 - years and older. The worst possible use of the property would be that proposed by Rob Perez. His proposal disregards the feelings and property values of surrounding property owners. It is calculated in a way to maximize his economic return at the expense of others. Therefore, we appeal to the commission to represent us to the Mayor and City Council in a fair and equitable way. The property will be developed, we have no doubt about that, but if Meridian is to remain a desirable place to live, development should be orderly and should consider the desires of its citizens. The collective values of existing taxpayers should take priority over the self-interest of commercial developers.

Idaho Avenue Meridian, ID 83642 Re: Southwoods Subdivision Dear Commission Members: .JE VEO As homeowners in the Meridian Greens Subdivision, we wish to express our concerns pertaining to the proposed Southwoods Subdivision development at Meridian Road and Calderwood. First of all, we completely agree with all of the points addressed in the attached letter and have signed our names to it. We have no objection to the LO plans along Meridian Road, which appear to be well addressed and nicely planned. We do, however, have enormous concern over the assisted living and Alzheimer facility plans) Developments of that type of density, and the additional traffic and safety issues which will be created because of It, have no place at that location. We urge you to consider the additional safety and traffic problems which this proposed development is bound to create. We live on the comer of Saint Kitts and SE 3 r Way, which also intersects with Calderwood. Recently, just with residential development in our own area, as well as the new high school, our traffic has increased considerably, and every day there are numerous vehicles who use Calderwood from Meridian Rd. to'cur the Overland/Meridian Rd. stoplight, and also those who "cut" from Overland down SE 3'" Way to Calderwood. The additional traffic created has caused several near accident "dose calls° of which we have personally seen. Also, at peak traffic times it is already very dangerous attempting to enter or exit Meridian Road. The Meridian/Calderwood intersection currently carries traffic at 45 mph speed limit and homeowners are trying to exit or enter toward Elk Run and Bear Creek to the West, as well as to our Meridian Greens area and Running Brook to the East. High density development would only make this situation much worse with more and more vehicles coming through our existing subdivision. Our streets are not designed for this! Further, we wish to bring up a point that the developers originally stated. When attending the meeting with them last November, it was our understanding their plan was to have a nice development of townhomes geared toward senior living (55 and over). We believed at that time they would pursue a development of that type and had no objection to that. Nothing was mentioned about a higher density, nor an Alzheimer's Center. Now at this point in time, they have changed to something that is more of a commercial enterprise with a density and design not at all what we originally believed, It is our opinion that a nicely completed 55 years and over homeowner development, with appropriate CCRs, would be an asset. However, the developers' current plan is surely a detriment to the existing neighborhood and would seem to benefit no one other than the developer. The additional points addressed in the attached letter are very valid. We do not want to see our property values decline, nor do we want to see the safety of our neighborhood compromised. The increased density and traffic for the proposed enterprise is simply not acceptable. The values and designs of any development need to be compatible with the surrounding subdivisions. We urge you to decline the developers' request, as presented, for the assisted living and Alzheimers facility. While we are not opposed to properly developing the area in a manner consistent and compatible with the property values and plans of the adjoining existing subdivisions, we urge you to retain the R-4 zoning, and we ask the developer to present a plan that would enhance the acreage and protect our current values — not to proceed with one that Is detrimental to existing property owners and totally unsuitable for the location.

In support of this request, we provide the following: The Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council originally zoned the area in question R4. The new proposal is requesting a change to R-15, which we, as current homeowners, feel is a density too high to be compatible with the adjacent R4 zoning. The proposed higher density would generate more traffic through the Meridian Greens Subdivision. Traffic on Calderwood has increased in the past few years due to drivers cutting through Meridian Greens to avoid rush hour traffic. Changing the R4 zoning to R-15 zoning would triple or quadruple the traffic, putting the lives of the young children who live in Meridian Greens at risk. There is a school bus stop at Calderwood and S.E. 3rd; the additional traffic would put those lives at risk (the cut through traffic does not stop at the stop sign now as it is). Trying to exit from Calderwood onto Meridian Road has become hazardous with the current traffic; this hazard would triple or quadruple if the land is changed to R-15. The proposed plan for the assisted living and Alzheimer's facility is not acceptable. This is a commercial proposal, and the land is zoned for residential. This will generate residence, guests, employees and emergency traffic through the Meridian Greens subdivision. Homeowners in the Meridian Greens Subdivision purchased here due to the property values, low crime rates and family values. We feel the proposed development is welcoming a change in all the reasons we purchased here. This assisted living facility and the Alzheimer's facility is being proposed by the Ten Mile Creek which poses safety concerns for those living in the center. • Regarding the request to rezone the land adjacent to Meridian Road to L -O, we have no problem with this assuming that the developer is willing to place a suitable buffer surrounding the property. In conclusion, as current homeowners, we request that you recommend denial of this request to the Meridian City Council. We feel the existing R-4 zoning should remain, as the proposed rezoning request and proposed use are incompatible with the surrounding zoning and residential use.

Sincerely 20 K—'5`7 2S -v/ 65 April 21, 2004 Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission Meridian City Hall 33 East Idaho Avenue Meridian, ID 83642 Re: Southwood Subdivision Dear Commission Members: AYE f i'nr�-i-"71C I wish to voice my concern over the proposed development of Southwood Subdivision as described in the notice of hearing that is dated April 5, 2004. I live at 1782 S. Marsh Wood Place and believe these changes would directly affect not only the neighborhoods nearby but also create traffic concerns on Calderwood and Meridian Roads. There already is increased traffic with MoutainView High School nearby. The property currently referred to as Southwood Subdivision is listed as having an R-4 density. The hearing is proposing a change to a density of R-15. According to the City of Meridian Future Land Use Map, density can only be changed one step. I would like to believe that you would abide by your own rules. As a homeowner in Meridian, I have been saddened to see the direction the growth has taken in our city. At times, I feel there is very little planning involved. I recently was in Parker, Colorado, a booming new suburb to Denver. The planning and zoning is amazing. The first impression you get when you come into their community is one that ties beauty and family living together. (similar to how Eagle has developed)—something I think we have lost in the town of Meridian since I arrived in 1996. I would like to see the commission keep the R-4 density. I would like to see the commission adhere to the plan that was originally developed. In a previous city meeting concerning the property to the north (now zoned commercial)--concemed neighborhood members were told that the Southwood Subdivision area would never be allowed to be anything except R-4. Personally, I do not object to the L-0 (light office) request adjacent to Meridian Road, but would prefer that appropriate buffers and landscaping be put into place. I am impressed with the way the "light office" property along Eagle road has been developed. I think it has been done well, and doesn't seem to interfere with the housing developments behind them. However, the proposed plans for the Altzheimer's facility and assisted living units concern me for a number of reasons. First, they are not residential property but commercial. How can a commercial property be placed on property designated as residential? In the proposed plans there are few parking places designated for these facilities. I would imagine both would have a large number of support staff and personnel who would need to park in the area, along with family and friends who would be visiting loved ones. Where would they be parking?. I also have concerns on the type of residents that would be using such facilities. I recently was in Chicago and gave a ride home to a woman who lived at an assisted living facility. She was currently in the process of moving out because of the number of young people (with problems) who were allowed to move in. There was much drug use and alcohol abuse. I think many times we think of assisted living facilities as being only for the elderly. I think in these difficult economic times, we find younger disadvantaged people who might qualify to live in such a facility—and therefore the facility might become something other than "assisted living". It also seems possible that if management were to change at such properties, they might easily be converted to rental units. In a letter written by others in our neighborhood, I just want to state again—The very best zoning for the proposed Southwood Subdivision continues to be R-4. The next best would be a gated community for residents aged 55 years and older. The worst possible use of the property would be that proposed by Rob Perez. His proposal disregards the feelings and property values of surrounding property owners. It is calculated in a way to maximize his economic return at the expense of others. Therefore, I appeal to the commission to represent our neighborhoods to the Mayor and City Council in a fair and equitable way. The property will be developed. I knew when I moved here that it would at some point in time, but I "believed" it would be R-4. If Meridian is to remain a desirable place to live, development should be orderly and should consider the desires of its citizens. The collective values of existing taxpayers should take priority over the self- interest of commercial developers. Sincerely, Julianne Bokenkamp Homeowner 1782 S.
