Thank you for being here. Moore: Honored to do so. Heavenly Father, we just pause to praise you for this unusual community that we are a part of and thousands of people are discovering what we already know, that this is a great place to live and -- and have a family and be in a relationship, to work and -- and just be a neighbor and, God, the people in this room deserve a lot of the credit for -- for either causing that to happen or -- or keeping it going and I pray that you would bless their lives, especially bless their quiet time and their -- their alone time and time with people that they love, that it will be rewarding for the service that they give and Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 55 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 2 of 17 -- and the decisions they make. I pray, God, that -- that tonight the decisions they make will keep this -- this going for our community, that it will be in the best interest of -- of us, the best they can do, and, then, they have so much to juggle and -- and decisions to make that often people are on different sides of that issue and have different perspectives on it and have to make a decision. So, bless them for that. Give them courage. Lead him to do what's truly right. I pray, God, for us as citizens that we would -- would do our part, that we would be moved by their service to our own. God, if I'm going to pray a prayer like this I -- I have got to live it. I have got to live it out and -- and not just have the idea, but -- but put that idea into action. So, I ask for your direction in my life and -- and for others in our community as well. We are grateful that you have given us a whole new way of looking at life.

Mayor's Senior Advisory Board Participatory Budgeting Proposal De Weerd: So, I will move into Item 8-A, which is an update and a report from the Mayor's Senior Advisory Board. Welcome. We have our power team here. Good evening. If you will, please, state your name. Lucker: My name is James Lucker. Call me Jim. I want to thank the Mayor and City Council for giving us this opportunity. I'm a 13 year resident of Meridian. I have been on the Mayor's Senior Advisory Council since its inception. Some of the things that we have done -- we have offered CPR classes, produced and distributed 2,000 City of Meridian Resource Guides with tandem information on the city website. We have offered a series of safety classes, including firearm safety, identity and internet safety, personal safety, keys to driving for 50 and over. Developed partnerships with the Meridian library. Offered a series of successful aging classes. Food for life. Good nutrition. Your files for life. Medical records, wills and DNR. Strategy for positive aging, socialization, volunteerism. Participate in community activities, the State of the City, Trunk or Treat, and donations to the Meridian Food Bank. Some months ago we were given a concept to work on for the benefit of the senior community and other citizens in Meridian. That participatory budget project is why we are here tonight. I would like you to imagine the Kleiner Park ponds, those two connected ponds that are stocked with fish each year for the fishing enjoyment of the residents of Meridian. Now I would like you to imagine those two ponds with the realization that currently neither of them -- of them are accessible under ADA standards. Keeping that in mind, I would like to introduce Carolyn Sinnard to present our participatory budget project, the Kleiner Park fishing dock. Thank you. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 58 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 5 of 17 De Weerd: Thank you, Jim. Sinnard: Thank you for having us, Members of the City Council and Madam Mayor. You should have in front of you the PowerPoint that we produced -- okay. I'm used to a clicker, so -- Bongiorno: Spacebar. Sinnard: Oh, spacebar. Okay. Thanks. Okay. So, the members of our committee are listed. Julie Vogel. James Lucker. Jim you just met. Brent Jones. Nancy Burke. Myself. Bob Kellogg. Larry Kelley. Michelle Anderson. Steve Joyal. And Jodi is our liaison. It's terrific. So, when we were given this opportunity we were very excited when we first -- it was first brought to us that we might have the ability and the possibility of doing something in the community that would enhance the lives of seniors. So, we -- the Mayor met with us and talked to us about how the process worked and so did Jodi. It's basically a process in which the local community members help us make the decision of how we would spend some money that's allocated for a project that would, hopefully, enhance the lives of seniors, similar to what the youth project did for enhancing the lives of youth. So, we followed that process. We went out and spoke to -- over about a three or four month process over 300 seniors about the project, not -- not what's the project we were doing, but what their ideas were, what they thought it would -- how they thought it would help their lives. We went to all different groups and -- and everyone on the board took part of this. We went to Kiwanis and Lions and Rotary. We went to the Meridian Senior Center. We talked at our classes. We went to the library health fair. We talked to people in 55 plus communities and we also used NextDoor, the online tool, to see if we had -- we put our survey up there in case we would get some response from that and we have just -- a lot of it was really just getting out and talking to the seniors , because at first they were a little uncomfortable, like, oh, the surveys. But once we started asking them what -- what would really make their lives better, it was very clear that the concept began to take shape and -- but we had several ideas and from those results, after talking to them and, then, Michelle actually was one of the volunteers in our board that compiled all the surveys and all the results and we voted on the top three projects. So, we researched different things and we looked at the top projects and I think it's actually the next slide . Yeah. Can you see this board? This is our working board and we looked at it -- we had some for fitness -- all of these were the criteria that people kept coming back for. They wanted something that was -- something they could do with their kids. They wanted something that was in the community and we had a lot of ideas. So, we had to kind of figure out what fit. Okay. How do I go back? De Weerd: I think the backspace. Sinnard: Backspace. Sorry. Oh. Got it. Okay. Yeah. Sorry about that. Okay. So -- sorry. So, we have compiled all the surveys and we looked at the top projects and some of the top projects were basically walking -- there was some walking paths. There was the AED machines and all the things, but we looked at all the projects around that board and said -- because when we came -- when we were given the -- the money allocated we Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 59 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 6 of 17 had to fit criteria that the Meridian City Council provided us. It had -- couldn't -- whatever we did, the project, it could not require any hiring of new employees, the project had to be located in Meridian, it had to be a one-time expense and it had to be feasibly implemented for 20,000 dollars. So, all the ideas that we had, we kind of threw it like spaghetti against the wall and said do they work with the criteria that you gave us as the City Council and that's really how the project began to come to fruition. Jim and I and a few of the others looked at all the top three and we really -- we did some research on them, tried to see if they were viable and they really weren't as viable, but what was viable was the -- the ideas that we had from the people and so the fishing dock was one that came out of conversations that we had with Parks and Rec on several other projects that we talked to them about. Like one of them was a checkerboard on the tables and -- anyway. So, we talked to them and we -- we really were excited, because this -- we brought it back to the board and said this is an idea that we talked about and the board members really liked it and it hit -- it really hit all the boxes of what we thought would be perfect for this project and we voted on it and we decided that was the project we were going to present to you for approval. It's going -- this is an ADA handicapped accessible fishing dock at Meridian Kleiner Park. We originally looked at Settlers Park, but we felt like this was a bigger park -- bigger pond, so it really helped more people, especially seniors who we felt one of the things that came out in our discussions with them is they really wanted to spend time with their kids and grandkids. So, it was something that they could really do long term and a lot of them have mobility issues, so that was part of the issue for them. It's going to be located next to the Senior Center, as you can see on the little map. The approximate cost of the dock -- Mike from Parks and Rec just got some preliminary bids for us. We know we have to go through the procurement policy program that you have, but we had to have an idea to see if this would even work within our 20,000 dollars and it -- and it does seem like it's feasible and that it would work and, then, we also -- we partnered with Mike and the Meridian Parks and Steve and everybody to build the ADA accessible fishing dock. They are going to install -- and I think they may be already working on this -- the concrete pathways to the dock. So, we are hoping to have it completed by spring of 2019, which is now, so we would probably be a little bit back on that. They got to do the purchase order and the procurement process, but we are hoping that it's all -- hopefully by the summer people can be up and using it and we will have a dedication ceremony and we believe that this project does satisfy all of the comments and suggestions and survey responses that we got from our seniors, that -- and our hope is that it will benefit -- enhance the lives of all Meridian residents, but especially seniors and especially those with disabilities, that this may not have been -- that may not have been accessible to them before. We are asking the City Council and the Meridian Parks Commission and the Mayor for your approval of our proposal of our ADA accessible fishing dock at Kleiner Park. Questions? De Weerd: Thank you, Carolyn. Council, any questions? Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Palmer. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 60 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 7 of 17 Palmer: So, the -- the ramp and the dock combined cost -- was that 19 seven? Sinnard: Let me go back. Palmer: Or the dock itself was 19 seven? Sinnard: I believe that the dock itself is 19,700 dollars. And, then, the sidewalks -- is that what you're asking me, Councilman Palmer? Palmer: Uh-huh. Sinnard: Okay. I believe that -- Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes, Mrs. Milam. Milam: I can try to answer that question. The way I understand it from the presentation to the parks commission is that the -- the sidewalk was already in the budget. They were already going to make a sidewalk down to the lake that was handicapped accessible. So, this is ending it -- they are putting it where that sidewalk was already going to be there for access. Is that correct, Carolyn? Sinnard: Councilman Milam, I believe that's correct. That was -- when Jim and I met with Mike that was our understanding. De Weerd: Is that one of the ADA things that -- Sinnard: Yes. De Weerd: -- we were required to do, so that all people have access to the pond? Siddoway: Yes, Madam Mayor. So, there is -- the 19 seven is the actual gangway ramp and the dock. The sidewalk going down to it is part of our ADA improvements that we are already doing with our department in the park. So, the sidewalk is separate from that. I don't have the actual number with me if you need to know the number for that sidewalk , but I can get that to you. But we -- we have a sidewalk project already in play to get down to lake. They will add a fishing dock off the end of that. Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Palmer. Palmer: Does the -- the large amount of concrete that goes to the water, does that not count as access to fishing to the ponds? Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 61 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 8 of 17 Siddoway: It can be access. It's just not the -- the act -- the type of access that the dock would provide. Palmer: Right. But -- Madam Mayor? If the dock were to never exist are we not ADA compliant to having -- if the dock weren't to happen would we still have to put a concrete pathway to the pond? De Weerd: Yes. Siddoway: It provides the ADA access to get people down to the site where they can fish and one of the reasons why we are choosing that site -- get where your map is. The other way. Here we go. It is the closest and shortest route we have -- right near that red star there are handicapped accessible parking spaces -- it's the shortest route to the pond from a handicapped parking space. Palmer: Madam Mayor. Probably my lack of understanding. So, can you not fish from all the other places that go immediately to the water? Are they a little higher than the edge of the water? Siddoway: I suppose you can. Yes. Cavener: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Cavener. Cavener: Steve, if I'm correct, the ADA accessible project, the sidewalk project that would be happening separate and is no way connected to the participatory budgeting request that's somewhat before us tonight. It's something that we are required to do as part of our ADA compliance? Siddoway: Not mandated, but something we are doing to get seniors access down to the pond waterfront, yes. De Weerd: So, that was a regular project by the Parks Department irregardless of the fishing dock? Siddoway: Correct. It's something we have wanted to do to get seniors access down to the waterfront itself. Or anyone that's in a handicapped situation, not just seniors. De Weerd: Okay. Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mrs. Milam. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 62 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 9 of 17 Milam: I think this is a fantastic idea and, you know, we -- we gave you the budget for the participatory budgeting and I think -- I can't think of a better use for it. That doesn't mean that there isn't one, but I think this is a fantastic concept and idea that you came up with that not only will serve the seniors be the ADA accessible, but hundreds -- you know, thousands of people I'm sure will enjoy using this dock to -- for fishing or, you know, sightseeing, picture taking, whatever they are going to do on there. So, I think it will get plenty of use and it's a great amenity for our park. Sinnard: Thank you. Milam: Thank you for all the hard work that you put into it. Sinnard: Thank you, Councilman. It really -- this really comes, Councilman Palmer, it -- I certainly understand your -- your concern. Really this idea embodied everything that the seniors told us, because they probably can get down there, but -- I work with a lot of seniors in my job and mobility is huge for them and safety and so they made -- this is going to make it safer and easier for them to access with their kids and grandkids. That was the biggest thing, really, out of all the services, they just wanted things to do with their kids and grandkids and as you get older that's -- that's important to us, so -- De Weerd: It's interesting, because when we did the park master plan and we had a consultant do a number of public outreach, we did have a specific focus group from our -- our more mature community and -- Sinnard: Seasoned. De Weerd: Seasoned. Yeah. I can't remember what we call it. But it was -- it was hands down our -- our consultants were just really impressed, because typically in other -- in other communities they were getting more me, me, me statements and here in Meridian they were getting statements from our senior community of my grandkids and my -- you know, it was -- it was hands down one of the top feedback comments that they gave us , is they were blown away with the focus on the grandkids and time spent. So, what you're saying was definitely mirrored just a number of years ago when we were doing that community outreach, too. Sinnard: Thank you, ma'am -- Madam Mayor. We really did appreciate that the Meridian City Council, you know, allocated some money and we learned a lot in this process. If we do it again we are going to have a lot more understanding of how it works, because it was learning for us, too. We -- De Weerd: Well -- and I just want to stress the effort that was put into it. I mean you guys went to numerous different groups, you sought out feedback and you had people own their ideas, fill out forms and the -- the process was -- was certainly out in the community and you made the rounds and I appreciate all the extra effort that you did to get that kind of participation. So, congratulations. And I do meet with Don Tibbetts with Republic Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 63 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 10 of 17 Services, which is the one that granted the 19,000 of the 20,000 that is being used for the participatory budgeting project. Sinnard: Thank you. Any other questions? Little Roberts: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mrs. Little Roberts. Little Roberts: Madam Mayor. Carolyn, no questions. Just wanted to say what a fabulous job I think you guys have done. I mean the due diligence was very very thoughtful and conceived, the process worked very very well. I'm thrilled -- I have been walking many times in that park when there has been kids, grandpas and grandmas, looking for maybe a better place to spend their time and get set up. So, I'm really excited. I think this will be a great addition. Sinnard: Thank you so much, Councilman Roberts. Yeah. We are excited. But it was a lot of work and the whole board participated in really -- I mean we went out and talked to a lot of people and everybody got out there and -- and it was fun, because they would come back and tell us the responses and sometimes they were goofy, but, you know, we still had fun. Thank you. Little Roberts: Thank you. Cavener: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Cavener. Cavener: Carolyn, you touched on it I think. It looks like you either have went before the parks commission or you're going before the parks commission. Sinnard: We have gone -- excuse me, Councilman. I got to get the technique down. Cavener. De Weerd: You're doing great. Sinnard: I know all of you -- a lot of you, so I want to just call you by your first name. Cavener: That's okay. Sinnard: So, we -- I was not there, but Jim and some of the other board members did go. I don't think they had a quorum, so I'm not sure if -- Steve -- get Steve up here. Yes. Lucker: When I made the presentation to the commission there was not a quorum, but it was passed on. One of the things -- if I could add. Not only does this give access to the grandpas and little kids, but because of the size of the dock you're able to utilize multiple Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 64 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 11 of 17 families at one time. Even with just the concrete pathway you might get one or two people that could stand there, but now we are talking about families -- multiple families and that's what we are really excited about. Thank you. Cavener: Madam Mayor. De Weerd: Thank you, Jim. Cavener: Jim, thank you for that -- for that update. And I have to say I -- I agree with you. Like I -- I appreciate the work that our Parks Department was doing for the pathway, but to me that's like a project only that is about 90 percent completed in my mind. We really needed to have a destination at the end of that pathway. Obviously, grateful for you and Carolyn and Michelle and the whole MSAB board really working on this project. Lucker: Thank you. Cavener: I think that I was somewhat skeptical -- as I'm always skeptical when we jump into a new project about allocating dollars and, you know, we do the participatory budgeting program with the youth and how this worked out and you guys brought a completely different perspective that will benefit our community, which completely validates having a great organization like yours participating in our community. Carolyn, when I think of people who are involved in our community, you're one of the first people that comes to mind. You do so many different things and have always been such a vocal advocate for our seniors. So, appreciate you all being here. I'm supportive of it. I guess, Mayor, what's the next steps in terms of do we -- do we vote -- I know we have allocated the dollars. Have we already committed to this project? Do they bring the project back for some formal action? Where do we go from here? De Weerd: Yeah. Because this -- this is listed under action items, that the proposal is to bring this for your approval. Cavener: Then, Madam Mayor, I have a question. I'm not sure who to ask it towards. So, with a 20,000 dollar price tag, I see 19,710 dollars. I start to get really nervous that prices change and so what type of assurances do we have about -- we are going to be able to accomplish this project at budget and what happens if it's 20,000 and one dollar? De Weerd: I think that's a great question for Steve. Because they -- Carolyn and Jim and team got the -- the information they have from the Parks Department. Siddoway: Yeah. Milam: Madam Mayor, I will donate the dollar over. De Weerd: I will split it with you. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 65 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 12 of 17 Siddoway: Madam Mayor, Councilman Cavener, I think with direction tonight, if the Council is supportive of the project with the not to exceed amount of 20 ,000, then, we will go out and secure bids and not move forward as long as -- as long -- unless it's under 20,000. Milam: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mrs. Milam. Milam: I move that we approve the Mayor's Senior Advisory Board participatory budgeting proposal for the Kleiner Park fishing dock and not to exceed amount of 20,000 dollars. Little Roberts: Second. De Weerd: I have a motion and a second. Any discussion? Palmer: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Mr. Palmer. Palmer: So, when we were discussing this during the -- the budget process and the idea was brought forward that it would be Republic Services providing the funds for this situation for this year, I tried really hard to find a way for Republic to not funnel the money through the city, because almost inevitably when that kind of thing starts happening and starts costing taxpayers somewhere. We have a -- an enormous obligation to make a lot of very expensive adjustments to provide ADA compliance across our parks and we are trying to do the best we can to, you know, fix as many of those as we can within the money that we have. We took the full three percent tax increase that we were capable of and because we went to the 3.0, instead of 2.9 or anything less, that meant that this Council believed that taking the full amount was still not quite enough to fulfill what Council believed our obligations to the city would be. So, when -- when -- when we have an ADA fun to have or nice to have that we are spending money on, as opposed to any of the things that we are legally obligated to make happen , it -- it's -- it's really hard for me to move forward with that. I would love to -- I think it's a great idea. A fantastic idea. In fact, if it's anything between 20,000 and 20,100 I'm happy to make up the difference and 2,101 with Genesis and -- because I do think it's a great idea. But I don't think that we need to be using the tax dollars to build the pathway to that point . I want to help find another way to make that happen, but if we are spending money for ADA modification -- or enhancements, it needs to go to the things that we are legally obligated and mandated to make happen. So, that's -- I wanted to explain why I'm going to be a no vote on this. I'm completely for it, I want to make it happen, but we don't have the money and no doubt we are -- you know, we are coming to the budget season, we have a lot of other -- in my very first budget meeting today, you know, hundreds of thousands of dollars more than we had the year before from one department and so I imagined throughout the rest of the city it's going to be similar to that. We -- we don't have the money to make this pathway at the moment. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda April 2, 2019 – Page 66 of 395 Meridian City Council March 26, 2019 Page 13 of 17 De Weerd: I believe the pathway is under construction, so -- Palmer: Well, whether we have allocated it or not, it should have gone somewhere else. De Weerd: Any other discussion? Mr. Clerk, will you call roll. Roll call: Borton, absent; Milam, yea; Cavener, yea; Palmer, nay; Little Roberts, yea; Bernt, absent. De Weerd: The ayes have it. MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE NAY. TWO ABSENT. De Weerd: I appreciate you joining us this evening and -- and for all the time and -- and effort that you put into doing your first ever PB project and I will see you in the morning. Thank you. Lucker: Is it proper to thank you? De Weerd: It -- certainly. Cavener: No. You guys are the ones that deserve the thanks. Item 9: Department Reports A. City Clerk's Office: Proposed Fee Update De Weerd: Okay. Item 9-A is under our Clerk's department. Coles: Thank you, Madam Mayor. Just wanted to provide the Council with a quick update about a fee proposal. If the Council recalls, we are in the middle of creating the vehicle immobilization or booting ordinance and the licensing process that goes along with that to license those that engage in that business type. So, on your screen in front of you you have what my office is proposing for the licensing fee -- the application fee for that process. It's 73.25. That includes a background check. That number, the background check number, is mandated by the FBI, so they set that portion of it. So, it's 40 dollars application fee on our side and, then, 33.25 FBI background check side. So, this is very consistent -- this is the exact same fee as our mobile sales unit, which has a very similar workflow, has the same number of employees that engage in that process and have to either approve or deny that application. So, tonight no formal action necessary by the Council, just kind of looking for a thumbs up, thumbs down, move forward with the public hearing process and, then, this will come back in front of the Council with this number, the 73.25 at a public hearing. So, I just wanted to inform the Council and see if there was any feedback as we move forward with that. So, I will stand for any questions. Or sit apparently.

De Weerd: Mr. Cavener. Cavener: C.Jay, recognize that we try and bring all of our fees together at one point, this is unique because of the ordinance being passed. Coles: Correct. Cavener: I just didn't know from your department's perspective -- because we are looking at one fee already related to the clerk's department , if there is an opportunity for you to look at your other fees and bring them back all together. If -- if there would be any proposed changes that would be coming. Coles: Certainly. Appreciate the question. Madman Mayor, Members of the Council, Council Member Cavener. We certainly could do that. But, again, this is unique because of the timing and it's a newly created process and so we try to stay consistent with the citywide schedule if at all possible. I don't anticipate any changes currently, other than implementing this -- this new one. Cavener: Thanks. De Weerd: Okay. Any other comments? Milam: Thumbs up. De Weerd: Okay.
