I'd like to welcome you to our City Council meeting. Thank you for being patient and waiting for us to start. For the record it is Tuesday, January 3rd. It's nine minutes after 6:00. We will start with roll call attendance after I wish you all a Happy New Year. Mr. Clerk. Item 2: Pledge of Allegiance De Weerd: Item No. 2 is the Pledge of Allegiance. If you will all rise and join us in the pledge to our flag. (Pledge of Allegiance recited.) Item 3: Community Invocation by Larry Woodard with Ten Mile Christian Church De Weerd: Item No. 3 is our community invocation. If you will all join us in our community invocation or take this as a moment of reflection. I'd like to welcome Larry Woodard with Ten Mile Christian Church. Thank you for joining us. Woodard: Thank you. What an evening. Our Dear Heavenly Father, as the snow falls this evening and Meridian takes on the appearance of the winter wonderland, we are blessed to live in a beautiful city with good city leaders. I ask tonight that this, the first Council meeting in 2017, that you give these leaders a double blessing for all they do for our city. Keep them safe, free of illness, and Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 2 of 29 their families doubly blessed for their community service . Tonight my thoughts are with the many providers of service to our community in weather that is pretty, but challenging. Keep the road crews and the city employees safe in sometimes treacherous situations. We live in a world of turmoil, except in our little corner of Idaho. Some communities this past year were ravaged by fire. Others had over 700 murders and our police and firemen kept us pretty safe. The rise of street crime caused by drugs is hurting our nation, so I ask for special protection for our uniformed officers. I could not help but feel sadness last night watching the Boise policeman who was shot twice by a criminal who had started his spree in the Meridian-Nampa area. May we not see more examples of this kind of crime in our city in 2017. Our city is going through some major changes this year. We will come near or pass a hundred thousand . A number of our streets are under construction and this brings increased danger to workmen and motorists. Again, I pray for safety. With more children coming into our area our schools are full. Help our school leaders to find a way to fund the new construction necessary to construct this next generation. Our church now has trained security personnel on Sundays. Having been raised in a small rural church where everybody knew everybody, I would have never dreamed that a church would need security in order to worship in safety. We appreciate the training we have received from our own police. I pray for all city employees from the clerks, to the planners, to the workers tomorrow who will have to get out in this weather to make things function well. I would be remiss if we did not pause and ask for good solid leadership at the state and national levels. May the intensity of this past election settle down and some changes occur which will benefit all of our nation's citizens . Lastly, I pray for wisdom as this Council wrestles with the recent order to provide additional judicial facilities. We know a good and reasonable decision will be reached. So, tonight keep us all safe as we return home and I thank you for this city, its Mayor and this Council, in Jesus' name, amen. De Weerd: Thank you. Woodard: You bet. De Weerd: That was a very thorough blessing for our new year. I appreciate you, Larry. Woodard: Well, you need a thorough blessing. Item 4: Adoption of the Agenda De Weerd: Absolutely.

If you will, please, state your name and address for the record. Oaas: Good evening, Madam Mayor and Members of the City Council. My name is Erik Oaas. The address is 4200 West Talamore Boulevard in Meridian, Idaho. De Weerd: Thank you. Welcome. Oaas: Thank you. And Happy New Year to all of you. De Weerd: Happy New Year. Oaas: We are pleased to -- to appear before you tonight and I appreciate your time being on the agenda, the first agenda of the year. We had -- we had hoped to accomplish this before the end of last year, but due to the -- Mother Nature and all the snow that -- that she blessed us with, we have been busy with other projects and a couple of these gentlemen who will be up here in a few minutes have been busy plowing snow. But suffice it to say that we are here to talk to you about a capital improvement project that we have in mind for this year and we arrived at -- at this particular project from internal discussions that we have had at the golf course, but also as a result of a survey that we took and amongst all of our members, all of our databases, the men's and women's associations and literally every -- everyone who -- who is included on our multiple hundreds database that we have and with that I'd like to invite MaryClaire Norman to come up, who is our marketing director, and talk -- maybe talk a little bit about the -- if we could slip to the -- the summary of the -- of the survey and we can talk a little bit about -- maybe answer your questions, but let's flip to Item 8. Item 8 and 9. And what we did is we -- in this survey we broke it -- broke it down into two separate areas in the bar and restaurant area and the golf course operations and although it was brief -- we all get bombarded with surveys and we get mighty tired of, you know, getting asked the same question multiple times. We made this brief. It was a one page survey and -- and, essentially, a rating scale from Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 6 of 29 one to five. So, with that I'm going to -- I'm going to let MaryClaire talk a little bit about the results of -- of both -- both parts of the survey. De Weerd: Thank you. Welcome. Norman: Thank you. It was -- on the golf side we basically -- the number one thing that was -- there was a lot of positives on -- on both -- overall we had positive results from -- we, basically, overall had at least a four on most. It was out of five, so we had -- the number one thing that they asked for improvements on was our cart paths and our tee boxes. Those were the -- the two things that were -- that came up on the comments or most of the surveys, which -- which we -- we both -- we plan to do both. So, we have been working on the cart path all year, so -- but in the -- they were pleased with customer service. They were pleased with staff. On the restaurant side they were pleased with our new menu and the server staff and we really had, I thought, a really positive feedback from everybody. We had, you know, little comments that maybe we could do this or that. It was very positive comments on the survey. So, I was pleased with what we got back. There were several people that didn't fill out the survey that came in and gave their opinions and -- or just wrote us a note, didn't necessarily fill out the survey itself, so -- but I really think that for the most part we had a pretty positive, you know, response back, so -- I think we were -- we had a really good -- people are really pleased with the progress that we have made over the last couple years, so -- that's good. Thank you. Oaas: Do we have any questions specifically about the survey or the results? Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Ms. Milam. Milam: In looking at your survey are -- you sent out hundreds of -- of these to all of the people on your mailing list and -- Norman: We sent out -- so, there was 1,757 that were e-mailed out and, then, they were available in the shop as well and -- and we had some on the -- on the golf carts when we were -- when we had the cart sale. Milam: So, these numbers on here, are those the ones that were received? So, out of that many only 23 filled it out? Oaas: It's interesting, because I think it's -- like I said, we all get bombarded with surveys and for the most part if we are pretty pleased with -- with the way things are we don't respond and I know I'm guilty of that. If something is particularly outstanding I will try and get a response in, but unless I have got a gripe generally I just toss it in the trash. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 7 of 29 Milam: Unless they are offering you ten bucks or something. Norman: There was a lot of -- that's -- I think that's what they -- a lot of people just stop in and say I got your survey, but, you know -- and, then, just offer a couple of -- Milam: Right. Norman: -- little -- which is what we were trying to keep track of. You know, trying to keep track of all the little comments and wh at people have said, so -- Milam: Pretty good survey. Oaas: Any other questions about the mechanics of the survey or the results? So, based on -- and we can flip to the -- let's flip to the -- the bar and restaurant if we can. That’s item eight. And you can see that, you know, out of a score rating of five -- of one to five, one being not satisfactory, five being, you know, out of this world, we did pretty darn well and even -- even surprisingly when you ask people are our prices competitive, it's surprising that the people for the most part felt we were very competitive, so -- if we can flip -- flip, then, back to the -- to the proposal -- I think that's item -- let's see. Maybe item six. We can start generally with -- with that. When we proposed -- or when we had discussions at the last golf course focus group meeting we talked about projects for the year and, as I said, this was prior to the time of the survey, but we felt at the time that we really needed to address the -- the tee boxes and the issues are they are small and they are just -- they were not constructed properly to begin with and by that I mean -- and Rich -- Rich can talk more about that, but by that I mean, you know, the wrong soil composition were put on top and -- you know, with too much clay, so it -- over the years it just tends to get harder and harder and harder and some of our poor older lady golfers just, basically, got to the point where they couldn't even put a tee in -- in the -- in the tee box. So, when you get to that point you say, okay, we got a problem, we got to fix it. So, we proposed to the golf course focus group that we -- that we actually redo the -- that we remodel number one men's and women's tees, number five men's and women's tees, and we said -- we also talked about doing additional work. W ell, once -- once we got the numbers together, you know, it -- it appears that the -- doing men's and women's on number one and -- and men's and women's on number five are probably going to consume all -- all the excess funding we have available to get it -- to invest in it this year. But I'd like to invite Roy Ahnstedt, our head golf professional, and Rich Rush, our golf course superintendent, up and we can talk about what we have in mind and we can go through the aerial photos, so gentlemen. De Weerd: Good evening. Oaas: Start with number four. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 8 of 29 De Weerd: And if you can just state your names, please. Rush: Richard Rush. I'm the superintendent of Lake View Golf Course. De Weerd: Thank you. Ahnstedt: Roy Ahnstedt. Head golf professional. De Weerd: Thank you. Oaas: So, why don't you talk about what they are looking at, the red line -- the red outline and the green outline, Rich, and walk through that. Rush: All right. Currently we are -- on the screen there is -- the number one -- the large tee box is -- the large area is the number one men's tee box and the smaller one is the lady's tee box. The current line -- or the current size of the tee box right now is in the green line area. From a picture up here it -- you know, it doesn't look like it's very small, but when you actually get out on the tee box itself it's quote small and it doesn't allow us to really be able to move -- move the tee markers around in different areas to provide a clean area for them to be hitting off of. Same with the lady's tee. That's extremely small for the lady's tee box and, above all, more than anything else, is they are not level, they are not flat, they are constructed out of material that was, basically, dug out of the ponds, so it's nice and rocky, very full of clay, very hard to keep grass alive on those things. But I would say probably the biggest issue with the golfers is the unlevel of the tee box. They have a tendency to roll from front to back, so they are not -- they are not flat like this, they go front to back. Plus they also sometimes have a tendency to go side to side, so they are kind of a big hump, basically , out there. And it makes it difficult for the golfers to line up and strike the ball properly. Oaas: Rich, can you give the Council some idea of -- have they ever been rebuilt or redone? Rush: No. This -- these are the original designs. When they built the existing front nine out there right now back in the early '90s -- I'm not sure exactly when -- these are the existing -- these are the original tee boxes. Shapes. Sizes. Everything. Oaas: And how long -- De Weerd: Hey, Erik, if you're going to talk you need to do it on the microphone. Oaas: Okay. And how long would you expect these to -- to do to be satisfactory? Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 9 of 29 Rush: Well, you know, to be honest with you, from a golfer standpoint they are really not satisfactory as they are right now. It can be hard to find a level spot and get -- to tee off the ball and hit the ball and from a golfer's stand point -- Roy can speak of it -- speak on it as the pro -- it just makes it a lot more difficult for the golfer to enjoy and feel like he's getting comfortable on the tee box when he goes to tee up. Ahnstedt: So, that is some of the things that we hear from our -- from our customers on a regular basis when we are out and we are working the desk or when I'm -- when I'm socializing or talking to the customer, our clients, is that our tee boxes aren't -- are hard to get -- find a level spot. It's hard to set up on. Again, like Erik said early, the tee is getting so compacted and hard that they can't get a tee in the ground. So, it's -- this is a capital improvement that will improve the player's experience and in the project that we are working on that we plan to do now will be added to in the future as we move forward in the next few years as well. It's kind of been our -- this has kind of been our -- in our ten year plan, to do a couple now, do a couple in a couple of years later, and as we find that they meet the -- these are the -- the ones that we have proposed are the ones that are in the worst shape. Again, the rounding of them, finding a level spot to set the tee boxes, it's the hardest part and that's some of the customers complaining it causes them to not hit the ball straight, you know, those kinds of things. Oaas: Rich, can you talk a little bit about what the red means and how we are going to -- to reconstruct these. Rush: So, as you see on the map there, there is a red line out -- a red outline larger than the green outline, obviously, and the plan is to enlarge these tee boxes by that -- that amount on each one. This one and hole number five. The -- the -- oh, what's the word I'm looking for? The direction we are going to be going with this is we will be taking a sod cutter and going and cutting all the sod off the top of the tee box, off the sides, all the way down to the ground -- to the -- to the flat areas of the ground and, then, going in with -- with equipment and grading out the tee boxes, lowering them down a little bit, spreading them out, make them a little bit wider, but also making them much more playable, much flatter, better playing surface. Oaas: And material on top. Rush: And with a good topsoil on top of the tee box itself, so we will have a good growing medium there for the turf. Oaas: You want to flip ahead to number -- yeah. This is number five. Rush: This is number five tee box. And it's a par five. It's -- it's really kind of in the same realm as what number one was. The tee closer towards the bottom of Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 10 of 29 the screen is the men's tee box and it is extremely narrow, it's approximately four and a half to five paces across from side to side, which is not nearly enough surface to, you know, handle the wear and tear that we get on these tee boxes. It is an extremely small tee, plus it is very unlevel and along with the lady's tee box -- the lady's tee box, which is further up the screen, is -- size wise is a decent size. It still comes into the problem of being very unlevel, very b umpy and very hard to keep grass growing on it very well because of the soil conditions. Oaas: Thank you, Rich. We stand open to questions about the construction or the details -- any further details with regard to the project. De Weerd: Council, any questions? Borton: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: The request form on the previous page, are the two boxes -- is the request that both boxes will be done, but the rent relief is for the 6,000 dollars for a single year? Oaas: That -- Councilman Borton, that's correct. Borton: Okay. Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: Because one of the things that you did I found really well with the 18 green was -- you had some skin in the game with regards to the city contributing some rent forgiveness and you also had some additional expenditures. So, the two -- both tee boxes -- the one with the dollar figure on it. Oaas: That's six. Borton: Okay. So, the request is one and two would be done this fiscal year -- I guess before October and, then, there would be a request for the one year's rent relief? Oaas: No. This -- we would put in -- these -- if Council approves these, then, we would request Council approve the rent relief upon completion. They will be done prior to the season starting. Borton: Okay. Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 11 of 29 Borton: We are saying the same thing. Rent relief for the October 1 -- Oaas: Correct. Borton: Okay. That's very helpful. Madam Mayor. Remind me how the golf course focus group meet and reviews -- I know we created this process. They meet as a group and do they literally vote on what we are looking at right here, up or down? How did that come about? Oaas: That's correct. And at the time we -- because it was more conceptual at the time of our last golf course focus group meeting, we also had the potential of doing -- what is it, the men's tee on 14? Is that -- but when we started gathering our costs together and getting things nailed down and -- in terms of rental and equipment and labor, we determined that this -- this was as much as we could afford. Borton: Okay. De Weerd: And I will let Mr. Siddoway also weigh in. Borton: Thank you. Siddoway: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, Councilman Borton, the golf course focus group met on Thursday, September 8th, 2016. This was brought up on their agenda as item five. It was discussed -- various ideas for next year's rent credit is I think the proper term. But the -- so, it was discussed and it was recommended and unanimously approved that the tee boxes should be rebuilt. There were not photographs at the time to -- but their recommendation from the minutes of the golf course focus group was to rebuild the tees and to make a full presentation with visuals to Council, with a recommendation for approval. De Weerd: Thank you. Any further questions from Council? Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Palmer. Palmer: Madam Mayor. Erik, I know nothing about golf. I tried to get into it once -- I lived in the subdivision there for a little bit when I was a kid. Went to the driving range and it just didn't work out for me. But -- so I always turned to my uncle who lives on the golf course there and ask him if he has opinions on one thing or another and he mentioned that -- that the number one tee box has recently undergone some work. Is that not the case? Oaas: Not the number one. We actually -- Councilman Palmer, we -- we actually -- maybe what he's thinking is we put in a professional golf -- a Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 12 of 29 championship -- actually, a men's championship tee box area if -- if we ever wanted to have a -- basically a championship that required a certain number of championship greens. We don't use that. Our golf -- our golf course clientele really are -- are not looking for that kind of -- that kind of play. But that could be what he's thinking about, but we -- we haven't done any work on the real workhorses, which is what you're seeing on the aerial. Palmer: Thanks for the clarification. Oaas: You bet. And, Councilman Palmer, this gentleman right here is -- is a heck of a teacher and he will get you interested in the game, I guarantee. Palmer: Madam Mayor? What happened was my brothers and I, we would go out to the driving range and because we were quite young we would mess with each other and -- but I feel like I have matured enough that maybe it's something I could look at. Thanks. De Weerd: Maybe in a couple years. I will thank you that you finally gave me a couple of excuses on at least two holes, so -- until you get him fixed. I think I will stick to miniature golf. My plug for Wahooz. Any further questions from Council? Borton: Madam Mayor, just one more. De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: In light of the survey results, are there new plans for cart path solutions that have risen to the top of the priority list? Oaas: Yes, Councilman Borton. We have, actually, done additional work on the cart paths since the survey. Borton: Okay. Oaas: But -- but, no, we have good plans to -- and, in fact, we have got two -- two folks who are going to really work a lot on that, including myself and my business partner Steve Laney. Just as soon as the ground starts thawing and getting into a position where we can -- we can apply some more of this man sand that is just -- it's just a great product and the -- our experience with it so far has just been incredible. Borton: Thanks. De Weerd: Okay. Thank you very much. Mr. Attorney, do we need any kind of action -- at least directions? Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 13 of 29 Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, yes. There is a form there that requires the Council's action to move to grant the rent relief for that time period in the amount. Yeah. Right there on that front form there it says staff use only. That's the portion that Council needs to direct to approve, for then for us to provide that to Finance for the rent relief for '17. De Weerd: And the rent relief is effective after completion and the numbers are in. Nary: Yes. After completion and inspection and, then, it's for FY-18. So, it's after October 1st. Because that was -- the one for this year's has already been granted. De Weerd: Okay. Just wanted to clarify. Council? Borton: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Palmer: I would move that we approve the request for potential rent relief for FY- 18 in an amount not to exceed 6,000 dollars consistent with the completion of the tee box remodel repair work we have been presented for boxes one and five. Milam: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second. Any discussion? Mr. Clerk, will you call roll. Roll Call: Bird, absent; Borton, yea; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, yea; Little Roberts, absent. De Weerd: All ayes. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. De Weerd: Thank you very much for the information you shar ed and for being with us tonight. Oaas: Thank you, Madam Mayor. Thank you, City Council. Which, hopefully, is -- from a time perspective is the way that -- that you will see this evening, so that we are well in advance, we are not behind the eight b all. De Weerd: That would be awesome. Oaas: Thank you very much. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 14 of 29 Item 8: Department Reports A. Mayor’s Office: Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council Update De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Okay. Item 8-A is under Department Reports. We have the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council update. Suzanna, thank you for sticking around to give your update. Bradford: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I'm Suzanna Bradford and I'm the vice-chair for MYAC and I will be giving our update for the month of December. So, to start off we had our MYAC Christmas party on the 12th and we played bonding games. We had a potluck and gift exchange. It's a nice time to hang out as a group getting ready for the Christmas season and it was a really good turnout. Our executive council had a Christmas party on the 19th and we watched a movie together and had a secret Santa gift exchange and it was just really nice to be able to spend that time with each other before Christmas and get to hang out as friends and last we had -- this was an event that our opportunities advisor Jodi St. Martin put on and we got together -- some of us got together as a group a few days prior to Christmas and we made cookies and treats -- made over 70 plates of baked goods for members of our community that had to work on the holiday and they were, then, passed on Christmas Day to promote Do The Right, our movement of compassion for -- and to just show appreciation for all that they do for us and for having to work on Christmas and that is all I ha ve, so if there are any questions? De Weerd: Thank you, Suzanna. And I will say how much we appreciate you taking part of your holiday to go out and spread joy and compassion to those that needed to work. I know that it was appreciated by those that were the recipients as well. So, thank you for that. Bradford: Thank you. De Weerd: Council, any questions or comments? Cavener: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Cavener. Cavener: I just want to echo that. I think that's really remarkable -- Bradford: Thank you. Cavener: -- on Christmas to spread a little joy to everybody. As a person who lived in a family whose parents worked on Christmas it was always kind of a challenge and the fact that you guys were going to reach out to them is rea lly awesome. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 15 of 29 Bradford: Thank you. Cavener: So, good work. De Weerd: Thank you. Anything further from Council? And MYAC has a very active calendar ahead of them in the next several months, so you will be hearing more about that as well. So, thank you for sticking around and joining us. Bradford: Thank you. B. Parks and Recreation Department: Resolution No. 16- 1188: Adopting Meridian Parks and Recreation Commission's 2017 Pathway Priority Task List De Weerd: Okay. Item 8-B is under our Parks and Recreation Department and, Jay, thank you for letting us continue this. Gibbons: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I appreciate the opportunity to come before you again. I have two resolutions to discuss with you. The firs t one -- the first item is Resolution 16-1188, which I ask for your approval to affirm or ratify the Parks and Recreation Commission's pathway priorities for 2017. We do this annually. We conducted a workshop -- pathways workshop in November and, then, come back with their -- their final pathway priorities for the coming year for adoption by the Commission in December. We did that. I'm before you tonight to -- to affirm those pathway priorities, which include pathway projects on Five Mile Creek, the Rail With Trail pathway signage and others. All the pathways on the priority list are basically -- they are underway as far as in design process, easement negotiation. We are just about ready to go to bid on at least two of them. So, the rest of them are in the works. They are under contract. Being surveyed or designed as we speak. So, with that I will simply ask that the Council approve Resolution 16-1188 and with that I will stand for questions. De Weerd: Council, any questions? I don't see any. Cavener: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Cavener. Cavener: I move we approve resolution number 16 -1188. Milam: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to approve Item 9 -- oops. 8-B. Any discussion? Mr. Clerk, will you call roll. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 16 of 29 Roll Call: Bird, absent; Borton, yea; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, yea; Little Roberts, absent. De Weerd: All ayes. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. C. Parks and Recreation Department: Resolution No. 16- 1189: Adopting 2016 Meridian Pathways Network Map De Weerd: Okay. Jay, you have Item C as well. Gibbons: I do. And I appreciate you allowing me to come before you on this. This one is important and it's a resolution adopting the most recent updates to the pathways network map. In your -- in your packet it reflects roughly -- there is 18 segments included in this -- in this amendment. Largely these segments consist of pieces and parts of the pathways that have been constructed by development in the last 18 months. There is also a couple of realignments to the pathway segment on the map itself that reflects changes to -- to the last -- or to the original configuration due to agreements with entitlement process as those areas have been -- gone through the process to be platted. There are also alternative routes that are being deleted on this map. One was shown as an alternative route that actually -- the original route was -- so, it came to us through the entitlement process, so we don't need the -- the go around. At this point it's been agreed to. There is also a piece of the Five Mile Creek pathway that was originally shown basically from Meridian Road to -- to Fairview Road. That was actually the alternative route is -- or has been -- it has been constructed and used for a number of years and it's time to -- to take that up to an alternative route -- the long-term route off the plan. Every time that we send information to COMPASS they question why do you -- why do you want both or what does this line type mean. So, we are trying to simplify and make -- and make sense as we go forward. So -- let's see. The Meridian Parks Commission, they, of course, worked with me on this during the -- during the pathway workshop in November. They approved -- or accepted the amended map and I am before Council tonight to ask that you approve resolution 16-1189. This adopted network map will then be public. It will be utilized by the Planning Department and others through their work processes as we go forward. With that I will stand for any questions. De Weerd: Thank you. Council, any questions? Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Ms. Milam. Milam: I move that we approve Resolution No. 16-1189. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 17 of 29 Cavener: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to approve Item 8-C. Mr. Clerk, will you call roll. Roll Call: Bird, absent; Borton, yea; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, yea; Little Roberts, absent. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. Gibbons: Thank you. D. Public Works Department: Construction Contracts and Task Orders for the WRRF Liquid Stream Capacity Expansion Project E. Award of Bid and Approval of Construction Contract to JC CONSTRUCTORS, INC. for the “WRRF Liquid Stream Capacity Expansion” project for a Not-To-Exceed amount of $35,565,000.00 Approved F. Approval of Task Order 10601.G to Brown and Caldwell for the “WRRF CAPACITY EXPANSION SERVICES DURING CONSTRUCTION” project for a Not-To-Exceed amount of $1,463,235.00 De Weerd: Thank you. Item 8-D is under our Public Works Department. I will turn this over to Clint. Dolsby: Thanks. Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, Item E and F, which follows D, are both related to the liquid stream capacity expansion project -- De Weerd: Okay. Dolsby: -- at the wastewater resource recovery facility. If it's okay with you I would like to present these all as one package and, then, I will take any questions on anything you might have. De Weerd: That works. Dolsby: This project will increase the capacity of the plant to 15 million gallons a day and is also one of the key projects that will set us up for our upcoming NPDES permit limits. What I have before you tonight is both the construction contract and construction services task order for this project. This project bid on November 4th. We received five bids out of the six prequalified contractors for the project and JC Constructors was the low bidder by 39,000 dollars, which is Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 18 of 29 kind of unheard of to have a bid that close on this big of a project. The funding for this project is just-in-time finance. It will be programmed over fiscal year '17, '18 and '19 for both of these contracts, actually. With that I would stand for any questions you might have. Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Palmer. Palmer: Madam Mayor, given that we are about to discuss and probably approve the expenditure of over 35 million dollars and there is maybe ten or 12 people in the room that understand the lingo everything you just used and we have a lot of people in the room that are young and are going to be affected by the decision we are about to make, I'm wondering if maybe you could break it down a little bit simpler for -- to help those that are here understand what we are about to do. Dolsby: Madam Mayor and Council Member Palmer, I would be happy to. So, this 35 million dollar project will take the capacity of the wastewater treatment plant up to 15 million gallons a day. If you think about that, each person uses a few hundred gallons per day in households -- I mean each household uses a couple hundred gallons a day, so I mean it's going to significantly increase the capacity of the plant. Also we have got very strict requirements we are going to have to meet as a part of the Boise River TMDL, which that sounds kind of complicated, but, basically, we are going to have to meet some very strict nutrient limits in the water that we discharge to, that the Environmental Protection Agency has put on the City of Meridian through the wastewater treatment plant's permit that we have to comply with. In order to meet those limits we have to build more structures out at the wastewater treatment plant, add more chemicals, do more treatment out at the plant, which is a big part of this project as well and it's not only related to capacity, it's also related to upgrading the plant to meet our new permit limits that are -- have been handed down by the Environmental Protection Agency. So, we are going to have to build -- oh, make on the order of 20,000 yards of concrete are in this project, which is kind of a staggering number to me. We are going to build four new aeration tanks out there. Also four circular tanks to help us settle out the solids in the wastewater and, then, it will also help to set us up to meet our future permit limits. De Weerd: Thank you. If you can simplify that even more, good luck. Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Any other questions? Mr. Palmer. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 19 of 29 Palmer: Madam Mayor, so as mentioned earlier that we are approaching a population of 100,000 here in Meridian, what population would the expansion that we are about to do facilitate us to? Dolsby: Just a second. Assuming that our limits don't change -- I mean -- because it kind of predicated on the permit -- the limits you have in your permit. Right now if we were operating under the permit that we have today, not updated -- not the permit that we are going to be getting here in the next few months we anticipate -- I mean we would have a much larger capacity for growth with this upgrade. Because of some of the low permit limits in the upgrade , some of the tankage that we are building is not just -- not for capacity, it's to treat down to the low permit limits. So, it's -- it's a little bit more complicated question than just saying that, you know, we would build 15 million gallons of capacity for, you know, 200,000 people. Palmer: Sure. Dolsby: It would kind of depend on what the actual -- or what the treatment -- I'm sorry. I will have to explain this a little, but what the treatment limits are at the plant, but it would be well over probably 100,000. My guess currently would be of the -- in the 120,000 range. Thereabouts. Plus or minus. But it kind of depends. I mean really our permit limits could change in a few years and that could blow all of this out of the water. Palmer: Sure. Thanks. De Weerd: Okay. Any other questions? Borton: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: Also in light of the size of the expenditure I see Keith Watts is here. If he may give some brief comment on the -- or maybe not. But some comment on the process utilized, the bidding, and the selection of these vendors. Watts: Thank you, Councilman Borton. Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we did a prequalification process on this project, which is I believe the first one since I have been here that we did an actual prequalification of general contractors. We advertised it just like you would do a normal bid. We sent it to all the agencies and the different publications and we set a list of requirements of the contractors. So, not just anybody is going to be able to bid on, of course, a 35 million dollar projection. We went through that pre-qualification process. It had extensive qualification requirements and reference checks. We completed that and I think we only had about -- let's see. We had eight contractors respond and two were not qualified for various reasons. We communicated that to those Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 20 of 29 two contractors and they understood the scoring and how it came out. We, then, finished the second phase of this bid process and did the bid. Now, when we go out for bid we don't advertise in the papers or anything, because we have done that with our prequalification. Only those six contractors are able to participate, because they met the requirements for the project. We completed that and we got five bids. We sent it to the six that qualified, only five responded. And like Clint said, the -- the dollar difference between our first and second bidder was 39 some odd thousand dollars on a 35 million dollar bid, which is -- which is unheard of, but it was also a good indication that our plans and specs were very tight, everyone understood them, even I think high to low was a relatively small dollar amount on this project as well. The contracts before you are -- like Clint said -- are set up to -- with estimated dollar amounts to be expended over the next three fiscal years, '17, '18 and '19. This year for the construction contract we are currently asking for a -- a spend authority of 9,500,000 dollars of the 35 million five eighty-five. And, then, the services during construction, which is our -- our services from our consultant, who is our designer, is also going to do the services during construction, that contract is 1,463,235 and we are expecting 491,259 for fiscal year '17. We estimate our -- we have projections for '18 and '19 and we will bring those back and come up before you for those expenditures for the next two years as well as we determine the dollar value that is left and what they are estimated to expend in those fiscal years. I think that's all I have for you. Borton: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: How do the dollar figures compare to the anticipated -- the long-term capital improvement plan expenditure for this anticipated expansion ? Do they align or -- Watts: They are in line. This is phase one of this expansion and the phase two , which is the headworks portion of this, we anticipate bidding that in the next 30 days or so. That will -- the pre-qualification for that process will go out. Clint has the budget numbers. He could give you a heads up on that. But we will be going through the same process. We will be prequalifying and, then, roughly eight to ten weeks after that we will be going out for bid and be coming before you for the contracts for the headworks phase of the expansion. Dolsby: Yeah. Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, Council Member Borton, we do plan on advertising that for bid probably in the next 30 to 45 days. It will be a four to six week bid period and, then, we would go through contracting. So, Keith is probably correct it would probably be a few months before you would see that headworks contract come to you for approval. That's not going to be as nearly as big of a number as this, but it's still going to be a really big number to us, because it will end up being on the order of probably, I don't know, ten million total cost. That includes some equipment procurement that we are going to do Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 21 of 29 as well just for the construction side of it. We have also got design fees and other fees associated with that project as well. De Weerd: And those all have been anticipated in the capital improvements plan. Dolsby: That's correct. Yes. And they are also in rate modeling and -- yeah. Borton: Good. Thanks. Watts: That's correct. De Weerd: Good question. Any further questions, Council? Okay. Thank you, Keith. Thank you, Clint. Watts: Do we need to ask for a motion to approve those two contracts now? De Weerd: Yes, we do. Watts: All right. De Weerd: And we did consider Items D, E and F at the same time, but I would look for a motion on Item 8-E. Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Palmer. Palmer: By itself? De Weerd: Yes. Palmer: Just E? Then comment before I make the motion. Councilman Cavener, did you have something else? Cavener: Just prefer that other people talk tonight. That's all. Palmer: Other than me? Cavener: No. Other than me. De Weerd: He keeps making him talk. Palmer: Then, Madam Mayor, for the -- again, for the young people that are in the room, there has been over the years some e xtremely wise handling of -- of the planning of our -- our Public Works facilities over the years and it's just Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 22 of 29 awesome that we are able to handle the population that we have and as it grows and expands it's all with cash. There is absolutely no debt that the city has. And, again, that's to the credit of those that came before me and before some of us here to -- to have to put that together in the way that they did to make sure that we don't have to go into debt for these kind of things and so if -- if you haven't had a chance -- I don't know how much you think about what happens after you flush the toilet or after you turn the sink off, but our water -- our treatment facility is actually a fascinating place to go tour. So, if you haven't had a chance to do it, I would encourage you to contact our Public Works Department and schedule an opportunity to go out and to check it out. It -- it may not sound like the most interesting thing to go do on -- on available time, but I can promise you if you do you will be glad that you did. And so with that I move that we approve the award for the construction contract to JC Contractors for the liquid stream capacity expansion project in an amount not to exceed 35,565,000 dollars. Borton: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to approve Item 8 -E. Any discussion? Mr. Clerk, will you call roll. Roll Call: Bird, absent; Borton, yea; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, yea; Little Roberts, absent. De Weerd: All ayes. Motion carried. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. De Weerd: Okay.

Palmer: Madam Mayor, I move we approve Task Order 10601.G to Brown and Caldwell for the capacity expansion services during construction for an amount not to exceed 1,463,235 dollars. Borton: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to approve Item 8-F. If there is no discussion, Mr. Clerk, will you call roll. Roll Call: Bird, absent; Borton, yea; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, yea; Little Roberts, absent. De Weerd: All ayes. Motion carried.

Public Hearing for Dorado Subdivision MDA (H-2016- 0131) by Jake Wylie Located 2490 and 2976 E Overland Road 1. Request for a Modification to the Development Agreement for Dorado Subdivision to remove the requirement for a Conditional Use Permit on Lots 1 and 2, Block 1 by Jake Wylie De Weerd: Item 9-A under our Action Items -- easy for me to say -- is a public hearing for H-2016-0131. I will open this public hearing with staff comments. Allen: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. The first application before you tonight is a request for a development agreement modification . This site consists of 1.25 acres of land, zoned C-G, located at 2940 and 2976 East Overland Road. This property was annexed back in 2005 with the requirement of a development agreement. A conditional use permit for a planned development was also approved at that time. The Comprehensive Plan future land use map designation is mixed use regional. The applicant is requesting a modification to the existing development agreement to remove the requirement for a conditional use permit for development on Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, of Dorado Subdivision. When the conditional use permit was approved for this subdivision in 2005, the city had not yet developed -- excuse me -- adopted standards for design review and required development to obtain conditional use approval to ensure quality of design. Since that time the city has adopted standards for building and site design and no longer requires conditional use approval to ensure quality of design if the use is a principal permitted use in the zone . For this reason staff doesn't feel it's necessary to require a conditional use permit, as all future development is subject to design review. Any uses that require conditional use approval in the C-G district per the UDC will still be subject to a conditional use permit. No written testimony has been received on this application and staff is recommending approval of the applicant's request. Staff will stand for any questions. De Weerd: Council, any questions? Is the applicant here? Do you have any comments? If you will, please, state your name and address for the record. Wylie: James Wylie. 1464 East Territory Drive, Meridian. De Weerd: Thank you. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 24 of 29 Wylie: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, thank you for your time tonight. As you can see, we are proposing a modification to this existing development agreement. After meeting with city staff they said they would support either the conditional use permit or this modification. Then after talking with them this is the route we chose to go. So, basically, all we are asking is to use these two C-G zoned lots for approved C-G uses and all I ask is your affirmative vote tonight and I will stand for any questions. De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Wylie. Council, any questions? Thank you. Wylie: Thank you. De Weerd: This is a public hearing. Is there anyone who wishes to offer testimony on this item? Okay. Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mrs. Milam. Milam: I move that we close the public hearing on Item 9 -A. Borton: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to close the public hearing on Item 9- A. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mrs. Milam. Milam: I move that we approve H-2016-0131. Borton: Second.

Roll Call: Bird, absent; Borton, yea; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, yea; Little Roberts, absent. De Weerd: All ayes. Motion carried. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 25 of 29 B. Public Hearing for Una Mas (H-2016-0132) by Chad Olsen Located Southwest Corner of N. Records Avenue and E. Tecate Lane 1. Request: Modification to the Development Agreement (Inst. #106137048 & 2016-106279) to Allow a Reduced Buffer Width from Twenty-Five (25) to Five (5) Feet on the C-G Zoned Property to Residential Units De Weerd: Item 9-B is a public hearing for H-2016-0132. I will open this public hearing with staff comments. Allen: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. The next application is also a request for a development agreement modification for Una Mas Subdivision agreement. This property is zoned C-G and is located at the southwest corner of East Ustick Road and North Records Avenue. This property was annexed in 2005 with the requirement of a development agreement. The applicant is requesting a modification to the existing agreement to include a provision to allow a reduced buffer width on a C-G zoned property to residential uses. The applicant proposes a reduction from the UDC required 25 feet to five feet on the C-G zoned property and a five foot wide buffer on the residential property along the shared property line, for a total of a ten foot wide buffer between land uses. All of the properties in Una Mas Subdivision are zoned C-G. The first phase of a multi-family residential project Veraso has developed at the south end of the subdivision and two additional phases are proposed to the north that will abut property that is anticipated to develop with commercial uses. In addition to the proposed ten foot buffer, a 20 foot wide driveway for access to the residential units is proposed along the north boundary of the residential development. Twenty foot deep garages are also proposed, which buffers and separates the living area of the residential units even more from the future commercial uses. If dense landscaping within the buffer is provided in accord with UDC standards, staff feels the physical separation and landscaping will provide an adequate buffer. Written testimony has been received from Chad Olsen, the applicant, in agreement with the staff report and staff is recommending approval. Staff will stand for any questions. De Weerd: Thank you. Council, any questions? Okay. Would the applicant like to make comment? Good evening. Olsen: Good evening. Chad Olsen. 12790 West Telemark Street, Boise, Idaho. 83713. De Weerd: Thank you. Meridian City Council January 3, 2017 Page 26 of 29 Olsen: So, this is the third phase of a residential project. Phase two, as called by Veraso Two, has already been approved and we have began doing the utilities and getting ready for residential. Veraso Three, we just didn't quite have enough room and we were already going to be running a road anyway, so it seemed quite redundant to have all these different setbacks when we were actually having an access road. We have gone to Ada County Highway District. They approved that road, that access there off of Records, and, in reality, this is just a continuation of phase three of the project. There is more than ample distance and separation between the would be commercial and future commercial that would be built, as -- as well as the residential and to give it an adequate buffer between those two uses and I stand for any questi ons you might have. De Weerd: Council, any questions? Okay. Thank you, Chad. Olsen: Thank you. De Weerd: This is a public hearing. Is there anyone who would like to provide testimony on this item? You might get extra credit. Just saying. Council, any further questions for the applicant or staff? Borton: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: I move that we close the public hearing on Item 9-B, H-2016-0132. Milam: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to close the public hearing on Item 9- B. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT. Borton: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Borton. Borton: I move that we approve Item 9-B, H-2016-0132. Milam: Second.
