Per the drawing Aaron sent, I didn't note that as part of the official ROW. To reiterate: Any multi -use pathway located within an ACHD ROW is covered, in my estimation. No additional pathway easement required. Hope that helps!

Thinking out loud ... if ACHD has been granted the easement for the sidewalk already, and it is permanent, would Meridian still need an easement for the same facility? I would view this the same as ROW.

To be absolutely correct in terms of preserving access, I think we would need easements for these areas. I know we've had to secure similar easements in the past for our sidewalk -widening [retrofit] projects. I doubt there's any real threat to long-term access if they aren't provided, but we don't want to have multi -use pathways on private property without formal permission. And I don't have any kind of authority to override this. Appreciate your follow-up, Kim Kim Meyers Warren, PLA I Pathways Project Manager City of Meridian I Parks and Recreation 33 E.

Kim, On a second thought, I want to make sure that we are clear. Below is a screenshot of the sidewalk easement that we provided for ACHD. The bulk of the sidewalk falls in the dedicated r-o-w.

Kim, I know you are out today. But I have a quick question for you regarding the need for pathway easements. As you know, ACHD is now requiring Arterials be constructed with a 10 foot sidewalk / pathway on both sides. This is the case with our Pinnacle project. We have a requirement for APEX SE No. 1 to write a pathway easement for Meridian. The sidewalk / pathway will be completely within ACHD's ROW. Is this still needed since a 10-foot sidewalk / pathway is now an ACHD requirement? Call me or email me at your earliest. We are getting down the wire and need to know if we have to submit this to you, or if it is no longer needed for the reasons stated above. Thanks. Jon Wardle President, Brighton Development, Inc.
