PROJECT NAME: CentrePoint Apartments
POLICE DEPARTMENT SUMMARY OF REPORT:
1. Police Response Time-
The proposed CentrePoint Apartments development application is approximately 3.3 miles from the
Meridian Police Department. The expected response time to this area in an emergency is 3:22 minutes.
The average emergency response time in the City of Meridian is 3:44 minutes. Emergency calls are
defined as an emergency response with lights and sirens and driving as authorized for an emergency
vehicle. The Meridian Police Department response time goal for emergencies is within 3-5 minutes.
Between 07/01/2020—06/3/02022,the Meridian Police Department responded to 3,137 calls for service
within a mile of the proposed development. Crime count of 233. See attached Level of Service Report.
Between 07/01/2020—06/3/02022,the Meridian Police Department responded to 119 crashes within a
mile of the proposed development. See attached Level of Service Report.
2.Accessibility—
The Meridian Police Department request police access into each building's entry point using a
multi-technology keypad if the buildings have climate controlled access. This will allow police
access, if there is an emergency, into the building if someone isn't able to come to the door to allow
police entrance. Otherwise,police would have to breach the door to gain access which isn't ideal for
anyone and delays our response.
Several other multi-family developments in Meridian are using a multi-technology keypad for this
purpose. Police can work with the applicant on placement of these keypads. Police will have their own
access code (same for each building)to use in an emergency.
3. Resource needs—
The Meridian Police Department can service this development if approved. The Meridian Police
Department already serves this geographic area.
4. Other comments—
All townhomes and or multi-family units shall be clearly marked with addresses and unit numbers visible
day or night for emergency response. The applicant shall place a way-finding map at each entrance that
are visible day or night.
All qualified open space provided in the development,to include all amenities,must be in an open area in
order to allow for natural observation opportunities. Pathways and landscaping should not create hiding
spots or blind spots that would promote criminal opportunities.
The Meridian Police Department will support all Community Development Staff recommendations,
Traffic Impact Studies from ITD and or ACHD to improve access,roadways, intersections,pathways and
sidewalks before the project if fully completed.
