Idaho Ave. Meridian, Idaho 83642 RE: Bellabrook Villas Conditional Use, Rezone and Private Streets— Letter of Intent Dear Mayor and Council; As representative for J.E. Developers, LLC, please accept this application for Bellabrook Villas, located on the east side of 300 S. Locust Grove Road, approximately 900 feet south of Franklin Road in Meridian, Idaho, Section 17, Township 3 North, Range 1 East of the Boise -Meridian. Bellabrook Villas is designed as a multi -family condominium project containing 34 units on 4.38 acres, with private streets, and a request for rezone to an R-15 designation. The gross density for the project is 7.76 dwelling units per acre. This letter is included with the land use applications for conditional use permit, private streets and rezone, together with filing fees and various exhibits. The enclosed applications have been submitted in accordance with the requirements of the Meridian Zoning Ordinance. As a result, this application does not include a request for variance or deviation from the ordinance. The development has also been designed to be in compliance with the intent of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. Specific Comprehensive Plan policies that support the requested zone change include: • Population Growth Goal 1, Objective A, Action 6 (New development provided with Urban Services); Land Use Goal III, Ensure public services, Objective A, Action 1 (Development projects planned public services); Goal IV, Objective C, Action 1 (compatibility),, 5 (sidewalks, curbs, gutters, etc.), Objective D, Transportation Corridors, Action 2 (Restrict curb cuts/access on collectors), Action 10, (Support variety of residential categories); Goal V, Diversity in housing, Objective A, Action 4 (Provide wide diversity of housing types (single-family, multi- family); Action 10 (Support infill of vacant lots when compatible to surrounding developments; In compliance with Comprehensive Plan.) Rezone Although the proposed gross density of 7.76 dwelling units per acre meets the allowed density for the existing R-8 base zone, a zoning designation of R-15 is being requested for this development to allow for the multi -family land use. The density is in compliance with the intent of the current Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map, which designates this area as Mixed Use Community, and allows for a residential density of 3 to 15 dwelling units per acre. Conditional Use Permit/Private Streets The 34 individually owned, 2-plus bedroom condominium "Villas" will be attached in combinations of two and four dwellings each. All Villas will have two car garages with two additional parking spaces available in each driveway. The proposed buildings are depicted with a two and three story elevation for each group of dwellings. The street system throughout the project will be private, and has been designed in conjunction with the Meridian Fire Department to meet all fire safety concerns, including individual unit addressing. Common landscaping will surround each building to provide a minimal amount of hardscape within the development. Usable open space, in the form of pedestrian walks and a gathering courtyard will create a centralized community amenity with a connection linking the project to the future Five Mile Creek regional pathway corridor. The gathering area will include seating, shade trees and community artwork. Additional common area includes a buffer along Locust Grove Road and landscaping of the eastern strip leading to the Five Mile Creek area. The total common area for the entire development accounts for 1.98 acres, or 45.2% of the overall property, with the usable open space accounting for 1.21 acres, or 22%. All common landscape area will be owned by the Homeowners Association that will be established for the community. An outside company will be contracted to maintain all common areas, including maintenance of the private streets (i.e. snow removal, parking violations, etc.). Drainage will be handled by on -site detention areas and will be designed to the standards of all appropriate regulatory agencies. A pressure irrigation system will be provided for all common areas within the development. Sewer and water service will be available to service this development and will be provided by the City of Meridian. In conclusion, Bellabrook Villas will be a quality and compatible addition to this area of Meridian. The development is adjacent to existing residential uses, with great thought going into the design of the project to insure compatibility through responsible landscaping and buffering from the neighbors. The requested zoning to R-15, along with the proposed density, are in compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan, and will benefit the public interest by providing a unique, diverse housing need to this existing mixed use area that currently has office, a church and single family uses. This application submittal includes all items listed within the appropriate application checklists. We look forward to working with you and your staff and request approval of this project.

Applicant/agent signature Date Bellabrook Villas Seasonal High Groundwater Report Project Description The Bellabrook Project is a Multi -family residential project with thirty four (34) living units on 4.38 acres in a proposed R-15 zone. The project is neighbored to the north by a 50-foot wide strip of unplatted property and Woodbridge Subdivision, to the west by S. Locust Grove Road, to the south by the Church of the latter Day Saints, and to the east by a single family residence with pasture. Storm water from the public right-of-way and residential lots will be discharged to subsurface drainage facilities and retention ponds located within the development. Site Characteristics The site is currently vacant and covered pasture grasses, one single family residence, and two accessory structures that will be removed with the project. The west half of the site topography (approximately 3.38 acres) slopes downward to the west towards locust grove road at a varying slope of approximately 2.0 to 4.0%. The easterly portion of the site (approximately 1 acre) slopes downward towards the east to Five Mile Creek. Subsurface soil conditions are typical for the area. The Soils Survey of Ada County Idaho classifies the site soils as "Power Silt Loam" with 2 to 4% slopes. The soils are very deep and well drained. The surface layer of soil is silt loam and is approximately 6-inches thick. Below the surface layer is silt loam and silty clay with an approximate thickness of 21 -inches. Soils at greater depths are classifies as free draining sands and gravels. Seasonal High Groundwater Elevation ACHD performed groundwater monitoring for the storm drain pond located at the southwest corner of Locust Grove Road and Franklin Road. The subject property lies about 4-10 feet higher than the top o f the storm drain pond site. The seasonal high groundwater elevation ranged from 2615 to 2617 (NAVD). The ground water elevations notes reflect seasonal high ground water depths ranging from 10.0 feet to 12.0 feet below the finished grade of the site. The specific ground water elevation data nearest to the respective stormwater facility was used for design of the individual stormwater facilities. Based on the geotechnical research and existing facilities within close proximity to the site, it can be determined that the site has suitable soils at depth for percolation (infiltration galleries) and suitable groundwater characteristics for subsurface stormwater disposal. This site has historically been irrigated, and it is possible that with this development, and the development of surrounding properties, that the seasonal high groundwater elevation may slightly decrease in the future.

Wells Street, #200 Meridian, ID 83642 Dear Ms. Alvaro: December 12, 2006 File: QUASAR B06286A RE: LETTER REPORT Limited Geotechnical Services Proposed Bella Brook Subdivision Locust Grove Road Meridian, Idaho STRATA, Inc. is pleased to provide our authorized limited geotechnical engineering evaluation services to assist you and Erickson Civil, Inc., with civil infrastructure design for the proposed Bella Brook Subdivision, located south and east of the intersection of Franklin and Locust Grove Roads in Meridian, Idaho. STRATA's services are limited to providing geotechnical recommendations for stormwater disposal and pavement design and do not include recommendations of any kind for residential lots. Additionally, we understand that you will need an estimate seasonal high groundwater at the site to assist stormwater design. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION Based on our conversation with Mr. Ross Erickson, and review of the preliminary plat for the proposed subdivision, we understand that the development will consist of a residential subdivision that will connect to city sewer and water utilities. The proposed subdivision is approximately 4.4 acres in size and asphalt pavement will provide access throughout the subdivision and connect to Locust Grove Road to the west. The subdivision roadways are expected to be constructed in accordance with ACHD requirements. Stormwater is anticipated to be retained on -site and disposed of in subsurface infiltration facilities. SITE DESCRIPTION The parcel is located in the City of Meridian, Ada County, Idaho and resides in the northwestern corner of Section 17 Township 3 North, Range 1 East, Boise Meridian. The site is bounded by Locust Grove Road to the west and residential and commercial development to the north, east, and south. Five Mile Creek is present in the eastern portion of the property, near the property boundary. An existing residence with associated outbuildings occupies the central portion of the parcel. IDAHO MONTANA NEVADA OREGON UTAH WASHINGTON WYOMING www.stratageotech.com 8653 W. Hackamore Dr. Boise, Idaho 83709 R 208.376.8200 F.208.376,8201 Proposed Bella Brook Subdivision GEE File: QUASAR 806286A Page 2 FIELD EXPLORATION STRATA observed the excavation of 2 exploratory test pits on November 17, 2006. Approximate test locations are provided on Plate 1, Test Pit Location Plan. The soil encountered in each exploration location was visually evaluated referencing the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), and soil profiles were logged by our field engineer. A brief explanation of the USCS is presented on Plate 2 and should be used to interpret the terms used on the test pit logs. Individual exploration logs are included in the Appendix to this report. Select soil samples were retained for laboratory testing. At the conclusion of our subsurface evaluation, test pits were loosely backfilled level with the existing ground surface, where possible. Exploration locations are indicated by the presence of observation wells and/or flagged stakes. We recommend exploration locations be surveyed so that an accurate record of their actual location can be obtained. If test pits are located beneath proposed building, pavement or sidewalk areas, the loose test pit backfill should be re -excavated to sufficient depth to expose undisturbed native soil and backfilled with structural fill according to the recommendations provided herein. Subsurface Conditions Two test pits were advanced to depths of 10 to 13 feet in locations shown on Plate 1 in November 2006. Soils encountered within the explorations typically consist of near -surface fat clay overlying variably cemented silt and silty sand, which is underlain by poorly -graded gravel with sand. Near -surface clay was described as brown, very stiff to hard, and moist, extending to a depth of approximately 1.5 feet in the test pit locations. Below these depths, tan to yellowish -brown, hard, sandy silt and dense silty sand was encountered. Sandy silt and silty sand exhibited intermittent weak to moderate calcium carbonate cementation and was observed to extend to depths of 5 to 11 feet within the test pits. Below these depths, gray, dense, moist, poorly -graded gravel with sand was observed. Gravel soil extended beyond the termination depths of both test pits. Groundwater was not encountered within the depths explored during our field investigation. Groundwater levels within the project vicinity are primarily a function of irrigation in the area, and seasonal high groundwater is anticipated to occur during the irrigation season. Based on review of topographic information and our knowledge of the area, it is our opinion that groundwater in the project vicinity will remain at depths greater than approximately 12 to 13 feet below existing ground surface in the western portion of the site. This depth corresponds to approximate Elev. 2715. Note that the depth to groundwater is only an estimate, and some seasonal and yearly fluctuation may be observed. We recommend that monitoring of the piezometer installed on -site be performed during the irrigation season to verify the above estimate. 6 IDAHO MONTANA NEVADA OREGON UTAH WASHINGTON WYOMING www.stratageotech.com Proposed Bella Brook Subdivision GEE File: QUASAR B06286A Page 3 Laboratory Testing Laboratory testing was performed on select soil samples obtained from our field exploration. Laboratory testing is accomplished referencing ASTM procedures. Laboratory testing included in situ moisture content determinations, grain -size distributions, Atterberg limit determinations and an R-value. Laboratory index test results are provided on individual test pit logs in the Appendix. R-value test results are presented as Plate 3. GEOTECHNICAL OPINIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS General It is our opinion the site is suitable for proposed infrastructure from a geotechnical standpoint for the proposed project, assuming our recommendations presented in this report are adhered to. Our recommendations and opinions contained herein reflect our understanding of the location and configuration of the proposed development and subsurface conditions encountered during exploration. It should be noted that soil conditions may vary between the test pit locations at the proposed site. Variation of soil conditions will not be known until construction, and may impact construction plans. If design plans change, or subsurface conditions between test pit and boring locations vary significantly from what was observed during our subsurface evaluation, we should be notified to review our recommendations and make any necessary revisions. Approximately 1.5 feet of fat clay was observed at ground surface in test pits locations. Based on limited laboratory testing, it is our opinion that this soil will be susceptible to shrink/swell movement associated with changes in moisture content. This movement can potentially result in damage to foundations, flatwork, and/or floor slabs of structures. Although the scope of our services does not include any lot -specific evaluation, we recommend that each individual homeowner and/or builder consult a qualified geotechnical engineer during construction. Earthwork We recommend test pits be relocated in the field prior to earthwork construction. If test pit backfill is located beneath the future pavement, sidewalk or residential lots, test pits should be re -excavated and backfilled with structural fill that is placed and compacted in accordance with this report. Near -surface soils were observed to consist of highly plastic fat clay. These soils will be subject to shrink/swell movement associated with seasonal changes in moisture content. This movement will be observed as heave if construction proceeds when clay soils are predominantly dry, and may be observed as settlement if construction proceeds when clay soils are relatively moist. Structures supported by these clay soils will be subject to movement associated with the seasonal moisture fluctuation. Considering this, two alternatives are considered acceptable for subgrade preparation below pavement and 6 IDAHO MONTANA NEVADA OREGON UTAH WASHINGTON WYOMING www.stratageotech.com Proposed Bella Brook Subdivision GEE File: QUASAR B06286A Page 4 sidewalk areas. Alternative 1 involves complete removal of clay soil, and will result in low potential for shrink/swell related movement. Alternative 2 will require moisture conditioning of clay soil, and some risk of shrink/swell-related movement will remain with this option. A detailed description of each earthwork altemative is described below: Alternative 1 — Removal of Clay Soil: If the potential for some shrink/swell- related movement is unacceptable, STRATA recommends that near -surface clay soil be removed below all planned pavement and sidewalk areas. This will require excavation depths of up to approximately 1.5 feet below existing grades. Following stripping, subgrade soils within pavement and/or sidewalk areas should be proofrolled with a minimum of 5 passes with a vibratory roller with a drum weight greater than 5 tons. If any weaving or pumping is observed, those areas should be removed to sufficient depth to expose competent native soil and replace with structural fill. Once a stable subgrade has been achieved, structural fill placement can commence to achieve desired site grades. STRATA should observe all proofrolling and site preparation procedures to verify no soft or pumping areas exist prior to placement of structural fill. Alternative 2 — Moisture Conditioning of Clay Soil: if the potential for some movement of pavement and sidewalk areas is considered acceptable, clay soil can be left in place below pavement and sidewalk areas. If this option is selected, STRATA recommends that near -surface vegetation and root matter be stripped to a depth of approximately 6 inches. Following stripping, exposed clay soils should be scarified to a minimum depth of 8 inches and recompacted to between 92 percent and 98 percent of the maximum dry density, as determined by ASTM D 698 (Standard Proctor). Additionally, clay should be moisture conditioned to between +2 percent and +4 percent above optimum moisture content. Structural fill or subbase material must be placed as soon as possible following moisture conditioning of clay soil to avoid drying. All fill placed to support pavement and sidewalk areas should consist of structural fill. Structural fill should be free from vegetation or organics and be moisture - conditioned sufficiently to achieve compaction requirements. All structural fill should be classified as silt, sand, or gravel (SP, SW, SM, GP, GW, GM or ML) in accordance with the USCS. Structural fill should have a maximum cobble size of less than 6 inches in diameter. On -site silty sand and sandy silt soils may be used for structural fill; however, these soils will require special attention and must be moisture conditioned to near optimum moisture content during placement. Additionally, during periods of extended wet or cold weather, silt soils may be difficult, if not impossible to utilize as structural fill. Clay soil should not be used as structural fill in any case. Structural fill should be placed to the subgrade elevation in uniform, maximum 8- inch-thick, loose lifts and compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the maximum dry density of the soil, as determined by ASTM D 698 (Standard Proctor). This assumes heavy compaction equipment, such as rollers, with a minimum drum weight of 5 tons is used. The maximum loose lift thickness should be reduced where smaller and/or lighter @0 IDAHO MONTANA NEVADA OREGON UTAH WASHINGTON WYOMING www.stratageotech.com Proposed Bella Brook Subdivision GEE Fite: QUASAR B06286A Page 5 compaction equipment is used. STRATA must be retained to perform field density testing of structural fill to verify contractor compliance with the above minimum compaction criteria. Wet WeatherlWet Soil Conditions We recommend site construction be undertaken during dry weather conditions. If site construction, particularly grading, is undertaken during wet periods of the year, the on -site clay or silt will be susceptible to pumping or rutting when subjected to heavy loads from rubber -tired equipment or vehicles, which exert a point load. Wet weather earthwork should be performed by low pressure, track -mounted equipment that spread and reduce the vehicle load. Work should not be performed immediately after rainfall. All loose and disturbed areas should be excavated to undisturbed soil or recompacted to structural fill requirements. Compaction of the fill should be sufficient to preclude pumping of the underlying soil. In summary, careful construction procedures are paramount to the successful grading operation if the on -site soil is wet. Additional precautions should be taken if subgrade soils are to be exposed to freezing temperatures. STRATA should be contacted to provide recommendations prior to initiating or delaying construction during wet or cold weather in order to improve earthwork efficiency, achieve a stable subgrade and to help mitigate frost conditions. Pavement Areas Recommendations outlined in the Earthwork section of this report should be accomplished in all pavement areas. The pavement subgrade elevation is anticipated to be variable and may consist of either clay or sandy silt and silty sand soil. For these subgrade soils, we recommend the following flexible asphalt pavement section be utilized. Local Roadways - Flexible Pavement (TI=6.0, Clay Subgrade) 2.5% Type III asphalt concrete top course 4.0% %-inch-minus, crushed sand and gravel base course 14.0% Pit run sand and gravel subbase course Local Roadways - Flexible Pavement (TI=6.0, Silt or Silty Sand Subgrade) 2.5"- Class III asphalt concrete top course 4.0% 3/-inch-minus, crushed sand and gravel base course 8.0% Pit run sand and gravel subbase course The above -recommended flexible pavement section is based on a maximum 20- year design life and a traffic index (TI) of 6.0 considering local streets. Based on anticipated pavement subgrade elevations, clay soil is likely to be present in portions of the pavement subgrade with silt or silty sand present in other portions. STRATA has Q, 0 IDAHO MONTANA NEVADA OREGON UTAH WASHINGTON WYOMING www.stratageotech.com Proposed Bella Brook Subdivision GEE File: QUASAR B06286A Page 6 assumed an R-value of 5 or less for clay based on our experience and has assumed an R-value of 30 or silty sand and sandy silt, based on R-value testing. If the subgrade is moist at the time of construction, consideration may be given to use of a woven stabilization fabric, such as Contech C200. STRATA recommends that we be retained to visually inspect pavement subgrade soils and prior to placement of structural subbase. The subbase should consist of 6-inch-minus, well -graded sand and gravel consistent with Idaho Standards for Public Works Construction (ISPWC) Section 801, and with less than 10 percent passing the No. 200 sieve. The base course should consist of 3/4-inch-minus, well -graded, crushed sand and gravel with less than 9 percent passing the No. 200 sieve and consistent with ISPWC Section 802. The subbase and base course should be compacted in accordance with the Earthwork section of this report. The asphalt concrete for the flexible pavement area should have material properties as specified in ASTM D 3515 and have a mix design with a maximum aggregate size between 3/4 and 3/8 inch. The asphalt concrete should be compacted as required by ISPWC Sections 809 and 810. We recommend crack maintenance be accomplished in all pavement areas as needed and at least every three to five years to reduce the potential for surface water infiltration into the pavement section and underlying subgrade. Stormwater Disposal Recommendations As previously discussed, soils encountered consist of near -surface clay overlying variably cemented sandy silt and silty sand, and poorly -graded gravel. Silt and clay soils, as well as cemented silty sand, are anticipated to exhibit relatively low infiltration rates and STRATA does not recommend the disposal of stormwater within these soils. STRATA recommends that the subsurface infiltration facilities be extended a minimum of 12 inches into non -cemented, poorly -graded gravel with sand encountered at a depth of approximately 11 feet in the proposed stormwater disposal area. Infiltration testing performed on non -cemented poorly -graded gravel indicates an infiltration rate in excess of 40 inches per hour. STRATA recommends a design infiltration rate of 8 inches per hour be utilized for subsurface infiltration facilities extending a minimum of 12 inches into non -cemented, poorly -graded gravel soils. Overexcavations required in infiltration facility locations may be backfilled with clean gravel with sand and/or ASTM C 33 filter sand in the bottom of the infiltration facility to achieve the required groundwater separation. As discussed in the subsurface conditions section of this report, groundwater was not observed within the depths explored, and is anticipated to remain at depths of greater than 12 to 13 feet throughout the year in the area of the proposed infiltration facility. 6 IDAHO MONTANA NEVADA OREGON UTAH WASHINGTON WYOMING www.stratageotech.com Proposed Bella Brook Subdiviwm GEE File: OUASAR B06286A Page 7 CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION AND TESTING We recommend STRATA be retained to observe all infiltration facility excavations and SUbgrades for pavement areas to verify site stripping, unsuitable soil rernoval, and excavation have been accomplished in accordance with the recommendations in this report. STRATA can also provide construction materials testing of concrete, reinforcement, and asphalt. If we are not retained to perform the recommended services, we cannot be responsible for related construction errors or omissions, The recommended services are not included in this evaluation and would be billed on a time and expense basis. EVALUATION LIMITATIONS This report has been prepared to evaluate the subsurface conditions and provide limited geotechnical recommendations for pavement and stormwater disposal for the proposed Bella Brook Subdivision located in Meridian, Idaho. Our services did not include a specific evaluation for residential lots or residential construction.
