Dear Mr. Johnson,
I am respectfully requesting a special meeting of the
Planning and Zoning Commission regarding my application for
Conditional Use & Rezone. This special meeting is to obtain
the results of the fact finding and conclusion requested by
the commission.
Time has become of essence for me due to the length of
time transpired since purchasing the property and application
to obtain a Conditional use permit for the daycare. Delays
are causing me considerable financial losses.
Your consideration for a special meeting by the 23rd of April,
1990 will be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully,

RE:
Lot 2, Block 2, Tedi Subdivision, Meridian, Idaho
Dear Ms. Paddock
This is in response to your request for a review of the covenants
on the subdivision in light' of your request for application to
rezone the north half of lot 2 as commercial. This is based upon
the following facts which have been related to me.
The covenants provide that the south 40 feet of lot 2 shall be
zoned commercial. ~_""Nothing ..is specifically referred to as to the
north half of said lot 2. The covenants further provide that
all other lots are to be residential or to be used for multiple.
units.
I am further advised that an application for conditional use per~
mit was applied for and granted in 1982 and in conjunction there-
with a building was constructed on the north half of lot 2 for a
shel ter home,' ---and was used as a shelter home until a feW months
ago.' This building was placed on the lot almost eight-}"ears' ago
with no further incidents or objections being raised by any other
lot owners in the subdivision. -
The granting of the conditional use permit and the building of
Ute building on the north end of the lot as evidenced by visual
inspection, the north half ,of the lot was in effect given the
same statUs as the south half of the lot. The fact that the
building has been built for all these years and used, anyobjec-
tion to the building by any' other lot owner would be barred by
both the statute of limitations and latches.
In my opinion this matter has been settled for some time.
truly yours
JCll/nr
We the undersigned DO Obje~to Linda Paddock using the4ØÞoperty at 1717
Crestmont Drive, Meridian, for the purpose of "Inchworm" Day Care.
We understand that three-fourths (75%) of those persons owning property
within 300 feet must agree to this Conditional Use before the proposed use
will be considered.
We have the following reasons for our decision:
1) The corner of crestmont Drive and Cherry Lane serves a Circle K
convenience store, which creates traffic dangers not normally present on
other access street leading to Cherry Lane. The patrons of circle K pull
out on to either Cherry Lane or crestmont Drive, sometimes not realizing
that another drive is making a turn from one street to another through the
intersection. Mr. Terry Jones, the manager of the circle K estimates that
he has 200 to 300 customers from the hours of 8:00 am to 9:00 am.
2) This intersection is also the ingress and ec¡ress route for the
subdivisions, Meridian Manor #1 and #3, since lt is the only way to get
access to the traffic grid.
3) Pedestrian and bicycling traffic in the vicinity, usually children,
would have increased danger.
4) Over the next several years one can expect the traffic on Cherry Lane to
only increase as areas, to the west, already commercially zoned are fully
utilized and more residential areas are built up.
5) The facilities at 1717 Crestrnont Drive do not have adequate parking.
This would force the 5 em~loyes workers at the facility to park their cars
on the street, thus reduclng visibility near the intersection. Parents
dropping their children off would be pulling out of the seven parking spaces
which are available directly in to Crestmont Drive into line of traffic.
Also, parents may decide to drive on down the street and use the
residential streets or driveways for U-turns.
6) The 40 to 45 children being cared for will generate 20 to 45 additional
cars using this intersection each morning AND each evening. This, along
with existing traffic flow, would congest this entrance to the subdivision
excessively.

TO; Honorable Mayor Grant Kingsford
Members of the City Council
RE; Linda Paddock's request for Rezone & Conditional Use Permit
Please find attached a revised plot plan for parking and play
area for your consideration. Also find attached an Earnest
Money to purchase additional property for proposed parking and
play area.
Your consideration of this new proposal and calling for a
public hearing if necessary at the earliest convenience is
appreciated.
You will note as per the revised proposal that all customer
parking is off of Cherry Lane. The only parking off of Crestmont
will be for 5 to 7 employees.
I believe this revised proposal will alleviate the concerns
of the public and council regarding traffic congestion on
Crestmont Dr. and customer parking for the day care.
Your cooperation an~ timely response is greatly appreciated.

residential developments.
11.
That the applicant was not required to obtain the
signatures of owners of lots within 300 feet of the subject
property showing approval of the application if the rezone is
granted since the conditional use would not be a residential
district; if the rezone is not granted, but the Applicant still
desires to operate the day care center, the Applicant would have
to submit the required approvals.
12.
That there was testimony submitted in opposition to
the application; that a petition was submitted in evidence which
objected to the granting of the conditional use for a day care
center; that the reasons cited in the petition as grounds for

which objections centered on requesting that the area maintain
its peaceful
and quiet residential character,
concern over
adequate parking, and concern over the possibility of increased
noise from the day care,
a 11
of which may reduce property
values.
At the Planning and Zoning hearing
there was one
individual testifying in favor of the Application and he owned
the property to the immediate south of the subject parcel which
is used for his insurance office.
He testified that he did not
think
that the traffic would
be a problem and thought the
application should be granted.
13.
That the proposed use now includes a drop-off and
pick-up area that would have access directly to Cherry Lane;
this area would also be used for visitor parking.

Applicant's representative testified that the parking

that upon a review of those requirements and a review of the
facts presented and the conditions of the area, the Planning and
Zoning Commission concludes as follows:
a. The use, would in fact, constitute a
conditional use and a conditional use permit
would be required by ordinance.
b. The use would be harmonious with and in

the Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional
use permit to allow the use.

d. That the use would not be hazardous nor
should it be disturbing to existing or
future neighboring uses; that traffic should
not increase significantly because of the
proposed day care center, and due to the
drop-off and pick-up area having access from
Cherry Lane, the residential area North of

activity, process, material, equipment or

production of traffic or noise.

6.
The conditional
use procedures
require that the
Applicant state that the use does not violate covenants or
restrictions; that the Applicant.s representative stated at the
Planning and Zoning hearing that the use did not violate the
covenants;
the restrictions set forth in
in
the co v e n ant s
paragraph 7 of the Findings of Fact are not clear whether the
use would violate the residential restrictions;
it is clear
that the South 40 feet of the subject parcel
may be used
commercially under the covenants, but it is not clear whether
the rest of the lot may be used commercially; the language does
not specifically address the northern portion of the subject
parcel
or its allowed uses.
The language is ambiguous as to
whether the north portion of the subject lot is included in the
allowed commercial area or whether the north portion is included
in the language "a1l other lots" since it is only a part of the
lot and the southern part is specifically allowed to be used
commercially.
It is generally held that where an ambiguity in
restrictive covenants exists, that since such covenants impede
the free use of land and restrict commerce and trade, that the
ambiguity should be resolved in favor of the least restriction.
It is therefore concluded that due to the ambiguity regarding
the allowed use of the northern portion of the subject parcel
that the residential
restriction should
apply and the
not
covenants do not barr the proposed use.
Such construction is
also in line with the opinion of Jack C. Riddlemoser, submitted
by the Applicant.
It is also concluded that it is in the best

interest of the City to have uniformity of zoning for one small
parcel of ground and since the property has been used in the
past commercially as a shelter home that it is logical to have
the entire lot zoned commercial, rather than residential.

That the City has judged this Application for a zoning
amendment upon the basis of guidelines contained in Section 11-
2-416 of the Revised and Compiled Ordinances of the City of
Meridian and upon the basis of the Local Planning Act of 1975,
Title 67 Chapter 65, Idaho Code, the Comprehensive Plan of the
City of Meridian, and the record submitted to it and the things
of which it can take judicial notice.

That
( K )
Ordinances of the City of Meridian sets forth standards under
which the City shall review applications for zoning amendments;
that upon a review of those requirements and a review of the
facts presented and conditions of the area, the Planning and
Zoning Commission specifically concludes as follows:
(a) The new zoning would be harmonious with and in
accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and no
Comprehensive Plan amendment is required.
(b) The area is in the CAIRNS neighborhood which is
designed for residential and other uses which support
residential needs and a mix of those uses and a rezone
of the subject property is in line with that
designation, particularly since one-half of the parcel
is already commercially zoned.
(c) It is difficult to determine whether the area
included in the proposed zoning amendment was or was
not intended to be developed in the fashion that would
be allowed under the new zoning but the fact that the
other one-half of the lot is already zoned C-N
indicates the new zoning would not be contrary to the
allowed uses in the area and would be in line with
existing adjacent developments in the area.
8
8
(d) The access to Cherry Lane is good and Cherry
Lane meets the requirement of the C-N district that
land zoned C-N have access to a collector or an
arterial and thus the property lends itself to a
rezone.
(e) That the property is designed and constructed to
be harmonious with the surrounding area.
(f) The proposed uses should not be hazardous or
disturbing to the existing or future uses of the
neighborhood.
(g) The property wi 11 be ab1 e to be adequately
served with public facilities, and connection to
municipal sewer and water is completed.
(h) The proposed use would not create excessive
additional requirements at publ ic cost for publ ic
facilities and services and would not be detrimental
to the economic welfare of the community.
(i) The proposed use should not involve any
detrimental activity to any person1s property or the
general welfare.
(j) Development should not cause a significant
increase in vehicular traffic and should not interfere
with surrounding traffic patterns.
(k) That this rezone will not result in the
destruction, loss or damage of any natural or scenic
feature or major importance.
(1) The proposed zoning amendment is in the best
interest of City of Meridian.

Kingsford: I don't recall seeing anything in the Findings for the Planning & Zoning
about this.
Crookston: You could table it for additional Findings, you ca~ table it on whether or
not it is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan.
Kingsford:
What's your opinion on the Plan Unit Development thing.
Crookston: You have more control on Plan Unit Development. To go ahead with the options,
you could grant it and then proceed with the Comprehensive Plan and amend. it subsequent
which is not preferable, deny it or table.

We might look at conditional zoning.
Myers:
The Plan Unit Development sounds better to me.
Kingsford:
What about tableing it until they come forward with a plan, user?
Crookston:
I think in order to do that you would have to have a basis for denial.

Couldn't we just table it.

George O'Connor, 1819 Crestmont Drive, was sworn by the attorney.
O'Connor: Read a petition listing six items of opposition to this Day Care facility.
There were 29 signatures on these petitions. Petitions are entered as part of the record
and are on file in the Clerk's office.
Jerry Phillips, 544 W. Cherry, was sworn by the attorney.
Phillips: How many kids where they have there in the summer when school is out? Also
if it goes through a sound barrier fence on the west side of the property, I'm just
70 ft. from that property line.
Joni Rath, 631 Lawndale Drive, was sworn by the attorney.
Rath: One of my concerns is how many kids are going to be there, the traffic problems,
the noise. Meridian does need quality child care but not in a small home.
Dixie Wood, 628 Lawndale Drive, was sworn by the attorney.
Wood: Concerned about traffic, hopes the council will take the time to go out and take
a look at the traffic. There are only 6 parking spaces also which is not enough.
Guy Walker, 2555 Misty Drive, was sworn by the attorney:
Walker: I am here representing Linda Paddock. We appreciate the P & Z recommendation,
we would also like to address their concerns. One of the concerns was the parking lot
redesign and I did provide the City a redesign of the parking lot. The redesign provides
for 3 employees parking and the possibility of a fourth, room for six visitors across
the front. One of the other concerns of the P & Z is the deed restrictions. After
reviewing the deed we could find nothing on the deed that restricted the use of this
property. Covenants - our interpretation of the covenants reading every other lot other
than the lot that has been zoned. Only half of the lot has been zoned commercially
, but the property has had a conditional use permit using the property as a commercial
piece of property. The building is not built for residential use it is strictly built
for a commerical project. A letter from Attorney Jack Riddlemoser was entered into
the record. Cherry Lane is the only four laned road in Meridian which will help traffic
go from Crestrnont to Cherry. What better place can you have a day care than right at
that area. The traffic is not a problem it is a concern. It will be completely fenced
with a solid fence 6 ft. high.
Giesler: On your new layout, they are still going to be backing out onto Crestmont.
Is this existing structure to scale with the lot.
Walker:
Yes they would be backing out onto that street.
No I wouldn't swear to that.
Giesler: First you mentioned the shelter home being a business already at this location,
first you have to realize that there would not be the amount of traffic with a shelter
home than with a day care facility. voiced real concerns with the traffic situation.
I don't see how 35-45 kids can be in that small yard.
Walker: I would have to confer with the client to see about restricting the number
to be at the day care. There would not be 45 at one time out in the yard.

What would be the maximum age of children she would be caring for.
Walker:
Up to twelve years old.
Yerrington:
What would be the average age then?
Walker:
Probably 6 or 7.
Yerrington: So that means in the summer time they could have 4C to 45 children there
all day long, right?
Walker:
Possibly, yes. There is going to be one person for every ten children to supervision.
Giesler: The 45 is the maximum she could have at one time.
could come and fill that spot.
Sc if one child left another
Walker:
No, you can only enroll 45.
Giesler: As long as there is 45 there at one time, if one leaves then one can take
that place I think.
Crookston:
I don't know what the requirements are for a Day Care Center.
Myers:
You can have 45 enroll but they may not all be there at the same time
Walker:
That's correct.
Myers: The maximum you can have at one time and the maximum that are enrolled could
be different.
Walker: Yes.
Tolsma: I agree with Mr. Giesler's comments. The traffic is already backed up getting
out onto Cherry Lane. People cut accross the parking lot to get out on Cherry Lane.
The traffic is a problem, I went over and watched the traffic fl~w.
Walker:
It sounds like the neighbors have a problem with Circle K.
Dan Wood, 628 Lawndale, was sworn by the attorney.
Wood: Had questions about the parking. There would have to at least five spaces for
the employees if there were 45 kids there. When the Conditional Use Permit was issued
it was with the intent that older people would be at the Shelter home without cars.
A majority of the neighbors do not want this and I am opposed also.
Tolsma: Anyone else to testify, being no response the Public Hearing was closed.
we have to have new Findings on this?
Do
Crookston: .1 think there have been enough issues raised that it's appropriate for new
Findings.
Myers: Most of the testimony tonight is about traffic conerns.
The Motion was made by Giesler and seconded by Myers to have the attorney to prepare
the Findings of Fact and COnclusions of Law.

A.M. to 8:30 A.M. at the latest in the mornings, then there will be no traffic
basically for the rest of the day, the only other traffic will be the bus taking
children to and from school so we are talking one van. The traffic at night will
mostly be coming in after 5:00 P.M. picking up there children it does space out, I
don't feel this will be a problem. I feel that this is an ideal location to have
a Day Care, it's not deep into the Residential Area. We will be fencing the yard
with a fence that is solid, 6 ft. tall so that it does create buffers for the neighbors
around.
Johnson:
Anyone from the Commission have any questions for Mr. Walker?
Rountree: Do you propose any change in the parking lot or circulation in or about
the facility to accomodate better traffic movement?
Walker: We could certainly address some parking that would be designated specifically
for c1ientel, so that they could pull in to pick up their children. That particular
area there is no trees or þep.ges to prevent:__good vis_ion_both up and down the ,st.r.eet.
Rountree: Your application states there will be anywhere from 40 to 50 children
babysat at the sight and you also indicated that most of the traffic is generated in
the early morning pressumably during the going to work time. What's going to happen
when 40 or 50 parents show up in a 15 to 25 minute range at the same time.
Walker: Not each person is just going to have one child go there. The average is
going to end up being-_around thirty: cars:, these thirty -cars- are going to spread oUt
over a 30 or 45 minute period which is normal. The parents are there maybe two minutes
when picking up their child. Consequently we find that you are going to have maybe
at the maximum three orfour cars there at the same time. The-staff is-only_going to
have two parking spots taken. A circular could be achieved, but then you would only have
three parking spaces that would be for the staff and for the van.

ITEM U:
REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE MERIDIAN SCHOOL DISTRICT:
Dan Mabe: This evening I would like to give you an executive summary of the school
district's situation as the board deliberates towards having a bond issue this fall.
Talked about overcrowding in schools. Our plan right now is to build two schools, one
at the site on Chateau and the other one that we'll have to find a site for would be
in the eastern part of the District in the area of Joplin. Spoke of a proposed
auditorium which would also serve as a civic center. It's primary function would be
educational. Would like any feedback you might have concerning this. Your support
and input is critical on this issue.
Giesler:
What was the seating capacity of the old auditorium?
Mabe :
It was over 1,000 but I'm not sure if it's 1,200.
Kingsford: I certainly commend the District for considering that auditorium, I think
that's an essential ingredient for us in Meridian.

Meeting held June 26, 1990 as written:
M:Jtion Carried: All Yea:
Item #1: Public Hearing: Rezone Request WI COnditional Use Pennit for Day Care by
Linda Paddock:
Mayor Kingsford: At the last Hearing, I stepped dcMn fran participating in this Request,
do to the possible COnflict of Interest caning fran the close proxiroi ty that I live
where this property is located, I think I had better do this again, at this t:iJœ I will
turn the meeting over to Ron 'lblsma, the COuncil President, to conduct this Public
Hearing:
COuncil President Tolsma, at this time I will open the Public Hearing, is there anyone
in the audience who wishes to offer testircony on this request?
Jerry Browne, 1728 Cresmont, Browne was SWOD1 by the City Attorney:
Browne: My wife has lived at this location very close to the proposed day care, she has
lived there for approximately 10 years and I have lived there for approximately eight
years, we opposed the proposed request, we do not see where this use would increase our
property values, we speculate it would decrease the value, we have conceD1S aOOut the
increase traffic, there is already a parking problan, several banes in the area are
single car garages we think this would add to the parking problEm, we feel there would
be increased noise. I am op¡;osed to the conditional Use Penni t:
COuncil President Tolsma: We did have one letter fran Mrs. Caron that is in opfXJsiton to
this request that needs entered into the record: Is there anyone else who wishes to
testify?
Guy Walker, 2555 Misty Drive and I am representing Linda Paddock, she is sick this
evening, Walker was sworn by the City AttoD1ey:
Walker: I appreciate being able to address the COuncil again on this issue and I hope
you have in front of you the revised prolX'sal that we have, we have certainly taken into
account the neighl:x>rs desires regarding traffic, congestion & noise and as I mentioned
last time we were extraneI y conceD1ed ab:>ut this and have a desire to be respective to
the neighl:x>rhood and the neighOOrs because they are going to be part of our business
and recam\endations for the business so it is important to Linda that we have the

~" cooperative of the neighbors and we are certainly willing to listen to any of the imput
they have and adhere to it if at all possible. We also took into consideration the
cœrnents fran the last hearing as well as the ccmnents iran the COuncil and as you can
see by our new proFOsal we went ahead and were fortunate that Mr. furtensen had that
property right beside him that was available and we were able to work sanething out
at an additional expense to Linda to put sane additional parking in and to alleviate
we feel the traffic congestion, as you can see on the new prop:::>sal the parking for the
clientele will d:iæ--ii1 off of CherryIiliie-fiOO'~-tlûswill-keep--all the traffic off of
Crestm:mt. We have also increased sane of the play area in the new proposal, we are alsc
guided by the State Licensing as to how much play area and what it will be like as well
as the structure itself. The structure will dictate heM many children she can have,
according to the square footage. On Crestm:mt as you can see we have only the employee
parking which consists of seven parking spaces. As to the fencing and so forth around
that facility, we \lK)uld certainly take any reccmnendation fraIl the Council, our plans are
to put s J..X -root-Wö<Xr-rencîn----gœeween-illr-àfiâ--'Ehè-'ã<!jà-cent-property-owners-;--There- "-wí:tl-be -----"- ..~---"----
a six foot fence and there could be sane other tyPes of sound barriers, whether it be
types of greenery, types of landscaping that could be put inside the fencing to help
cushion the sound. With the entrance on Cherry Lane, I do not think you will even knc:M
that is a Day Care fran Crestm::mt with the entrance & signage on Cherry Lane, I feel
you would think it was almost a hone, I do not think this is going to take anyones
value away, in fact if sanething doesn't get happening there and the weeds continue to
grow and the structure continues to deteriate we are going to be talking about devaluation
of peoples property. We think this would be an addition to the City, the City is in
need of Day Cares and the children will be well supervised and they will be preparing
them for schooling.
Giesler: According to your new proposal, it looks like the entrance will be changErl, is
that correct? They will be entering fran the parking lot rather than the Cresbront side.
They will not be able to enter fran the CrestmJnt side.
Walker: That is absolutely correct.
George O'COnnor, 1819 CrestIront Drive, O'COnnor was SWOD1 by the City Attorney:
0' COnnor: Mrs. - Rath was unable to attend this evening, so I am expressing sane sentiments
for her as well, sane side notes here we felt that this was unfortunate that this was
on July 3rd and difficult for sane people to get doon here, several people in the
neighborhood are still concerned about decreased property value, myself included" even
if it is to a minor extent, we are still conceD1ed about traffic even on Cherry Lane,
there may becane a need to restrict East turns out of the parking area, we are conceD1ed
about noise, particularly the neighbors very close, sane of the suggestion that sane of
the neighbors had if this does go through is that along the property lines at least a
solid six foot fence and sane shubbery for sound proofing.
COuncil President Tolsma: Anyone else fran the audience wish to offer testlioc>ny? There
was no reslX'nse, the Public Hearing was closed.
City Attorney: I think we are going to need new Findings for the new testlioc>ny and the
new ProFOsal that has been sul:mitted:
The Motion was made by Giesler and seconded by Yerrington to have the City Attorney
prepare new Findings on the Rezone request w/Conditional Use Pennit for Linda Paddock:
