Rountree: I have none.
De Weerd: Okay. Okay. Thank you, sir.
Rountree: Do we need to make a motion?
Borton: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Borton.
Borton: I move that we deny the request by the Idaho Youth Ranch to waive fees for
the landscape ordinance variance request.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. I have a motion to deny the request on Item No.8. Any discussion?
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Before voting on the issue, I guess my statement would be for myself and we
look at our city ordinances and we look at the fees put in place and we have a group
asking for relief from that fee, my question would be would we consider that waiver for
other groups of similar type and people that do similar things in our community and so
that's what I'm really considering in this motion and respect Mr. Bird's offer and certainly
his sentiment. Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Berg, will you, please, call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, nay; Rountree, yea; Wardle, nay; Borton, yea.
De Weerd: Well, Mr. Bird, I think you have a great offer and it looks like you might have
to get your checkbook out. I will break the tie in support of the motion, because it's a
precedence that I can't see that there can be a separation from one to the next and we
have to have that fair and equity and so with that I vote with the motion. Aye.
MOTION CARRIED: TWO AYES. TWO NAYS. MAYOR AYE.
Item 9:
FP 06-003 Request for Final Plat approval for 45 single-family residential
building lots and 1 common lot on 14.75 acres in a R-8 zone for
Paramount Subdivision No. 12 by Paramount Development, Inc. - east
of North Linder Road and north of McMillan Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Item No.9 has been requested to be continued.

Item 10:
MFP 06-001 Request to modify the approved fencing and to remove
gravel edge along North Ten Mile Road to allow for landscaping for
Silverleaf Subdivision No.1 & 2 by Liberty Development, Inc. - 6040
North Ten Mile Road:
De Weerd: Item 10 is MFP 06-001. I will start with staff comments.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this is a modification to an approved
final plat before you tonight. I don't know that we have worded them this way before.
What this is is the Silverleaf Subdivision Nos. 1 and 2, the final plats have already come
to you, they had a landscape plan associated with them, and now the developer is
asking to have that landscape plan that was approved with the final plat modified. This
is the first one. You can see the color coding. Everything that they have proposed is
consistent with the provisions of the UDC, it's just that it's not what was exactly shown
on their approved landscape plan. The pink areas they are proposing a six foot cedar
instead of a five foot solid vinyl. The yellow area they are proposing a four foot solid
vinyl, instead of a five foot solid. The blue areas, which are -- the blue area they are
proposing a four foot solid vinyl, instead of a four foot iron. And the brown is a six foot
solid vinyl, instead of a five foot solid vinyl. So, that's one of the subdivisions. Here is
the other one. They want to make use of the existing solid cedar fence placed by the
Lochsa Falls development, instead of replacing it with a different fence or putting a dual
fence. So, staff is recommending approval. It just needs to come before Council,
because it's not exactly what was approved with the previous final plats.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you, Anna. Any questions for staff?
Bird: I have none.
De Weerd: Okay. Would the applicant have any additional comments? Council, what
would you like to do on Item No.1 O?
Borton: Madam Mayor?
