Page 3 of 20
8. Recognition of Long-Term Employees of the City of Meridian
Simison: So, we will go into Department/Commission Reports and Item 8 is recognition
of long-term employees of the City of Meridian. So, Council, just a brief update. As we
have continued to evaluate our recognition of city employees this is one of the new
changes we have done. Rather than just doing it in front of the department we decided
to ask the employees to come here and be recognized in front of City Council and in
some cases with their families present as well and it will be on record forever. So, we
are here today to do recognition of two long-term employees, both with 30 years of time
with the city. So, I'm going to move down to the podium and let's start off by asking Mr.
Freckleton to join me at the podium. He is going to have his family come up and join as
well and so, unfortunately, got a little bio of information that's been provided by Human
Resources. So, thank you very much to Human Resources team for helping us in this
process. So, I'm going to go ahead and read and we will do a little recognition and if
you have any words you would like to say we would love to hear from you. We are
excited to celebrate Bruce Freckleton's 30 years of service with the City of Meridian.
During his time at the city he spent several years working at Meridian as Development
Services Manager, focused on the overall administration and management of all land
development and building activities within the city. During his time as the Development
Services Manager Bruce led the transition away from a contracted services model of
building plan review and inspection services to an in-house model. This transition has
proven to be a significant benefit for the city and the customers we serve. Over the
current course of his 30 year career with the city Bruce has led the Development
Service division through the greatest periods of growth of the city and continues to do
so as the Community Development Director, which he was promoted to in 2021. Bruce
was born and raised in Boise. However, in 1985 he -- Meridian is where he and his wife
Connie decided to set their roots and raise her three children. He is proud to call
Meridian home. Through the years he has developed excellent working relationships
with design consultants, developers, builders, city administrators and other
governmental agencies. He looks forward to applying his years of experience and
perspective to all aspects of community development each and every day. Bruce has
vast experience and has built strong relationships. He is committed to Meridian's
division being a premier community to live, work, and raise a family. Thank you for your
dedication to the city and congratulations on your 30 years of service, Bruce. It's been a
pleasure for me to be here for half of those, roughly, but it's -- it's an honor. So
congratulations. And here is some stuff from the Human Resources Department, which
always includes, you know, some -- some chocolates and your 30 years of recognition
from the City of Meridian. So, I will hold onto these for a second if you have any
comments you would like to make.
Freckleton: Thank you, Mayor. It's been an absolute honor serving the citizens of
Meridian. Time flies so fast. It just doesn't seem like it's been 30 years and Kenny can
probably agree with that, too. But it has been an honor and a privilege to work for the
city and I look forward to finishing out my career here. So, thank you very much.

Simison: Mr. Bowers. So, I had to start with the one with a few years total accumulated
service and it was very nice of Bruce to bring one of his grandkids, who, you know, it's
about when you started officially with the city -- it was about the same time frame based
upon your years of service. So, appreciate that. Kenny Bowers is a lifelong Meridian
resident and for a lot of that time has been helping the City of Meridian. Kenny began
his career as a volunteer firefighter and police officer in the city around 1972. In late
1983 he was appointed and become Meridian Fire -- sixth fire chief. He served in a
part-time capacity until 1992 when the fire chief position was transitioned to full time.
Kenny helped build out the initial infrastructure of Meridian's fire command staff. During
this time Meridian Fire Department expanded building three new fire stations, bringing
three new apparatuses to the city. Kenny was instrumental in starting the thermal
imaging program, the defibrillator program and establishing Meridian Fire's first Fire
Safety Center, which opened in 2005. Meridian Fire also began its partnership with Ada
county paramedics, co-locating the ambulance at Meridian Fire Station Number Two in
order to improve response times to that area of the city. Kenny stepped back from his
role as fire chief in 2005, eventually moving to the position of fire inspector and most
currently captain fire inspector. He is well known for never missing a single day of work
and continues to be a valuable asset to the Meridian Fire Department. Very few
employees make it to 20 years of service, let alone 50. We are excited to celebrate
Kenny's 30th official work anniversary and 50 years of community involvement with the
City of Meridian. Kenny has been married to his wife Kristi for 36 years. It is obvious
that when Kenny makes a commitment he sticks with it. Congratulations and thank you
for all of your service to the City of Meridian and our community, Kenny.
Bowers: Thank you. My wife wasn't able to make it. She was doing 4-H stuff at
Emmett tonight with the kids. So, that's kind of important. So, back there in the back
row, back here, that's my family back there. We grow up with those guys and work with
them, but it's been a ball. I mean 30 years full time and 20 years part time and -- and,
man -- John Overton and these guys, it's quite a difference here when we started from --
I had a little office in the fire station in the corner with a table -- card table and every
time, you know, a fire truck would start I would get dieseled out, stinked out, but we
have changed a lot coming up from the volunteers to full time and bringing in more --
building more stations and more engines and it's -- it's been a thrill to work with the City
of Meridian and the Meridian Rural Fire District as a couple, so thank you very much.
Appreciate it.
Simison: Council, the best part is neither one of them is going anywhere anytime soon
to my knowledge. So, look forward maybe we can get him up here for 35 years before
too long.
9. Mayor's Youth Advisory Council Update
Simison: With that we will move on to Item No. 9, which is the Mayor's Youth Advisory
Council updates. I'm going to invite Sahand to come forward and introduce our
MYACers who will be presenting this evening. Sahand.

Page 5 of 20
Rahbar: Mr. Mayor, City Council Members, thank you so much for allotting this time for
the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council to come up and speak to you. I'm actually going to
invite Katelyn and Isabella, our MYAC representatives today, to come up and introduce
themselves and they will provide a little bit of an update on what MYAC has been up to
over the past few months.
Simison: Thank you.
Deckelman: Mr. Mayor, City Council Members, thank you for having us today. My
name is Isabella Deckelman. I'm a junior at Renaissance High School and I'm currently
serving as the Community Service Vice-Chair for MYAC.
Holdeman: Mr. Mayor, City Council Members, my name is Katelyn Holdeman and I am
a junior at Compass Public Charter School and I am currently the Vice-Chair of MYAC.
Deckelman: All right. So, for our presentation we wanted to give you guys a brief
overview of what MYAC has been doing between the months of November and
February. So, beginning with government affairs.
Holdeman: So, our first government affairs activity was our City Hall tour. This was
December 5th and MYAC -- we as MYAC had the opportunity to tour Meridian City Hall
and hear from a representative from every department -- department in City Hall and we
really got to learn a lot more about city government and how everyone functioned and
work together and, then, January 31 st we had the legislative reception with the
American Heart Association. So, we had MYACers help put together a map showing
the location of stores that sell tobacco, nicotine and vape products, as well as locations
of schools to show how the school locations and those shop locations were in proximity
or close to each other and, then, we had some MYACers go to the Capitol with the
American Heart Association to speak with legislators and state officials about their
perspectives on the use of these substances and, then, most recently -- this was last
Friday -- we had our tour of the State Capitol and this was about an hour long tour
where we went on every floor and got to learn more about how the Idaho state
government functions.
Deckelman: And, then, some of our community service events that we have had -- we
did trunk or treat in October. So, MYAC had a booth at this event and members handed
out candy to little kids as part of a fun fishing game that is kind of a MYAC tradition.
And, then, we also had Holiday Helper decorating and this occurred over the span of
three different days. So, MYAC was in charge of making and putting up all the
decorations in the expo Idaho Building for Holiday Helpers. So, members helped make
snowflakes, set up a Christmas tree, and hung up fun festive posters. And, then, these
are some pictures from that event. We also participated in Rake Up Meridian over two
different days. So, members participated in this event, which is a community event
supporting seniors and others in need in our community. So, members helped rake
yards and bag the leaves for two different houses. We also participated in the Winter
Garden Aglow event, which is held by the Idaho Botanical Gardens. So, members
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 6 of 20
served as volunteers and guides. They were stationed throughout the garden and they
answered questions and guided attendees to various areas and there is a fun picture
from that event. Most recently we had a nonprofit panel and we also did Valentine's
Day card decorations at our last meeting. So, we invited Lisa Hansen from the Meridian
Senior Center, Abbey Schulz from the DisAbility Rights Idaho and Audra Green from the
Meridian Library District to inform members about community aid groups and what they
do in their positions and, then, afterwards members made Valentine's Day cards for the
Meridian Senior Center, which those are seen in the photo.
Holdeman: And, then, as far as leadership development, we recently had the guest
speaker Nick Aldinger, who is the CEO of IBL Events and he talked to us about
producing a live in-studio event. From the presentation we learned a lot about how to
coordinate and present a live in-studio event and as far as leadership development, this
helped us learn about the importance of communication, collaboration, and the
coordination between everyone as a team needed to manage and create events.
Deckelman: And, then, for some other fun events MYAC has had, we had our holiday
party in December. So, to kind of commence the holidays MYAC held a holiday party at
City Hall and members played fun games, such as Minute To Win It, judging ugly
sweaters and did a fun white elephant gift exchange. And, then, for some upcoming
events that we have -- in March we invited the Urban Land Institute to go over a city
development workshop. This was something that the executive council members did at
our AIC conference and we wanted to present this to the general council members. So,
this event included MYAC members using Legos to help plan a city where they are
given certain regulations to learn more about what city planning entails.
Holdeman: And, then, also in March we are going to have our bylaw overview and we
are going to try and update those with the Deputy City Attorney Emily Kane. We haven't
updated our bylaws in a while and we have been working as an executive council to go
over some proposed changes and, then, we are going to talk to the general counsel
about those. And, then, we are also going to be planning for Do The Right, which is
going to be happening in April, which is where we are going to sort of commence that
event and promote it and, then, we will also have a City Council panel where we will
learn from you guys and present that kind of -- kind of to the general MYAC as a whole
and, then, finally in May we have the senior prom with the Meridian Senior Center. This
is something we did last year and it was a really fun event and we got to provide a really
fun night for senior citizens in our community. Thank you. Are there any questions that
you guys might have?
Simison: Thank you, Katelyn and Isabella. Council, questions, comments?
Perreault: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Council Woman Perreault.
Meridian City Council Work Session

Page 7 of 20
Perreault: Thank you. You have been busy. This is fantastic. I love that you are
getting involved in such a variety of things and -- and the community service aspect is --
is really wonderful. I'm curious about your day with the legislators regarding tobacco
use and what you were hoping to accomplish in your conversations with them, if it was
just to make them have some awareness of the perspective of youth or if there was
something that you were actually wanting to get proposed or passed through the
legislature and kind of how that conversation went.
Holdeman: So, far we aren't necessarily working to create a bill, but we are talking with
the American Heart Association and they were just talking about like wanting to do a
project and the importance of kind of seeing the correlation between these locations and
schools.
Perreault: Thank you.
Rahbar: Mr. Mayor, Council Woman Perreault, Katelyn and Isabella weren't the
MYACers who were present at the event, so I just wanted to provide a little bit of
perspective from the ones who were there. They got to get sort of a quick little training
on lobbying from the American Heart Association and it allowed them to learn a little bit
about how tobacco cessation and tobacco education programming works in our state
through the mechanism of the Millennium Fund. But, really, what it was mostly about
was giving them a chance to have these sorts of conversations with the legislators
where they were able to speak very frankly about their experiences with these products,
seeing it among their friends or in their communities, because legislators don't
necessarily have the opportunity to get that sort of insight from the students and I think
the American Heart Association was very glad to have students with boots on the
ground who could speak to that sort of experience.
Perreault: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Council Woman Perreault.
Perreault: Thank you so much. That -- that's awesome. Just the experience of them
going and being there and sharing their voice and sharing their perspective and being
bold in that. Applaud them. Please pass that on to all of those that were there and
participated and that's just something that I'm -- you know, to get our youth involved in
public service in that capacity is amazing and I wanted to just say really quickly I went to
an event last fall and it was so much fun and it's harder than it looks, but it is -- it was a
blast. It's really really awesome. So, I'm sure you are going to have a really good time
with it.
Simison: Thank you, Council Woman. Council, any other comments or questions? All
right. Thank you very much for being here and sharing that and best of luck as we
continue moving through the rest of the year and maybe there -- there may be
something even with the Meridian Library District elections, if they are -- if they -- if there
will be candidates running, besides the one person, but we will see. So, appreciate it.

Holdeman: Thank you.
10. Meridian Solid Waste Advisory Commission Annual Update
Simison: So, with that we will go to Item 10, which is the Meridian Solid Waste Advisory
Commission annual update and we have Chairman Cory here with us this evening.
Steve, nice to see you.
Cory: Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of Council. My name is Steve Cory. I'm the
chairman of the Solid Waste Advisory Commission. I bring you greetings and thanks --
thanking you from the Solid Waste Advisory Commission for your support in things that
you have worked with us on. One of the primary responsibilities of the Solid Waste
Advisory Commission is managing the community recycling fund program. At present
the balance for the CRFP is just over 82,000 dollars. SWAC had voted to go ahead and
request from you permission to use about 2,200 dollars for squishy water bottle project
out at the Meridian Transfer Station, but Public Works went ahead financed that this
year, so we had no expenditures from the account in FY-22. I would mention to you
that we do have -- I will probably be in front of you fairly soon to go ahead and request
permission to use some of the funding to go ahead and cover the squishy water bottle
program over at the transfer station and also we are going to need a little bit of help on
the class receipt over there combined on to not to exceed 12,000 dollars. So, we know
we are still going to have 70,000 dollars in that account. Looking forward I would say
that the Solid Waste Advisory Commission is very excited about having that available as
the solid waste management plan gets put together to be able to have a little bit of
financing to incentivize the suggestions that are in the plan and we will look forward to
working with Council on those projects once they get worked through and we can give
you some solid recommendations. Some of the activities over the course of 2022 are
the Treasurer to Treasurer project, Public Works Expo, the recycle a bicycle project,
working with the Ada County Solid Waste Advisory Committee and the Ada County
Hazardous Waste Program. Trash or Treasure, as you can -- as you probably are well
aware, is a beloved program for city citizens, something that's unique to Meridian. It
really has transitioned well over into city staff and they take care of all the publicity on
this and a lot of the signups and other information and at this point it's kind of drifting
down to where our members watch what's going on out in the community and help
report that back and provide pictures, obviously, and these are a couple of shots of one
location that shows in the morning what was put out on the curb and even in the
afternoon what little was left and another shot in the neighborhood of all that was left
was the sign that said these are part of Trash Or Treasure. The treasure had already
been taken off. We got the chance to participate in the Public Works Expo this year and
had a very enjoyable time with that. We had about 75 visitors stop by the booth and as
is kind of the common thread on these things, the citizens like to go ahead and talk
about what's acceptable in the recycle stream and usually have some questions about
some of the other programs that can exist, like glass subscription or grass or other
activities. We were glad to be able to do the recycle a bicycle -- or the -- yeah -- recycle
a bicycle project again this year and, again, staff really stepped up on this. A lot of
press releases and a lot of information. We got some press in the local news stations
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 9 of 20
and had a good deal of support on the day of the event. We had 46 bicycles that were
spoken for and, unfortunately, in the second photo you can see some evidence of the
rainstorm we had to deal with that day. But even so, 34 people arranged to pick up their
bicycles. The remaining bicycles were eventually distributed to the rescue mission and
Farmway, but it certainly is a good project to go ahead and give some transportation
options to members of our community and I need to mention, too, that at the end of the
year the recycle a bicycle activity out at the transfer station provided another 50 bikes
for youth to the Boise bicycle project and those were some of the bicycles that they
were able to go ahead and distribute. But this event is -- this activity has really diverted
a bunch of material from the landfill that goes to good use after it otherwise would have
been hitting the end of its life. The other activities that we mentioned as far as the Solid
Waste Advisory Committee for Ada County this year, I was asked to go ahead and pick
up the chairmanship of that committee again. So, if you ever have any things that you
want our county committee to go ahead and look into, I really appreciate your requests.
As far as what we are looking at, the landfill is coming to grips with the fact that while
their original intention was for the landfill to last through the century, right now the
projection is that it will only -- it will fill up by 2065, which starts putting in the plans for
the next landfill on the distant radar screen and some of the effects of that have come
back into financing and that's really going to be the key items that we are going to be
looking at over the course of this next year and I'm certainly looking forward to making
sure that you get the information that we get on that. As far as household hazardous
waste, certainly the contractor that's working on this has had some issues with staffing
and such and so I suspect we are going to have be watching that fairly close over the
year, too. As far as our other major activity, the rate review -- this year it was almost
automatic, basically. Just the CPI inflation adjustment and -- and, then, continuing the
outside agreements on waste process -- or recycled material processing and as I kind of
indicated before in this -- in that review that both the glass subscription process and the
grass subscription process grew a bit, but not significantly and so at this point we have
no recommendations for any changes in those two programs. We had a number of
presentations throughout the year, but rather than reading through all these I will boil
them all down to monitoring waste and recycling in the community, the CRFP
management outreach activities and monitoring the rates and in the report I have gone
through a number of items kind of specifying some of the activities that we are looking
throughout the year, but just to kind of hit the highlight, our intentions are just improving
and protecting the city's waste and recycling practices and systems, while being mindful
of the ratepayers and with that I would love to have your questions.
Simison: Thank you, Steve. Council, questions for Mr. Cory?
Strader: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Council Woman Strader.
Strader: Hey, Cory, thank you for the presentation. I have a couple of questions. What
is the timing of the solid waste plan is one question I have and, then, what is it -- you
know, are you guys going to look at a voluntary composting program? Where is that at?
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 10 of 20
1 know there were some legal issues popping up and hurdles that got in our way of
looking at that, but I would love an update on those two items.
Cory: Thank you, Council -- Council Woman. Yes. On the -- on those two issues -- as
far as the first one, the solid waste plan -- certainly that's within staff and I think it's more
appropriate that staff go ahead and address that issue. I'm going to go ahead and let
Sayard -- go ahead.
Schultz: Hi, Sayard Schultz. City solid waste coordinator. So, I guess we are currently
finished with the plan, the first draft, and right now the director is looking at that. So, we
are hoping to get that wrapped up in a couple of months and, then, present it to -- to the
Mayor and the Council. So, that -- so, the solid waste draft -- or a solid waste plan is
written by the staff members, not the SWAC, and, then, after that goes through, then,
SWAC will have a chance to -- to look at it as well.
Strader: Okay. Thanks. And, then, the -- looking at composting, is that addressed in
the plan or are you guys going to look at that again anytime soon?
Cory: Let me go ahead and say that we continuously look at the -- the activity and so,
yeah, you are going to need both of those discussed on this. I think probably I will start
off and let Sayard talk about composting -- well, and organic waste and the waste
management plan.
Schultz: Yeah. So, that's something that we look at in the plan and that's addressed
there. There is different -- there is just more expanded yard debris that we currently
have and the grass program and, then, also we have looked at feasibility of having a full
compost program, which means yard debris and food scraps. So, that's something that
will be evaluated once the plan is put into place through staff.
Cory: But, then, to continue on that, you are indeed correct on this, that we have been
monitoring the availability of composting services being developed by the -- by the
private sector and that continues to develop at this particular point, but our other key
input is the subscription services to see if that grass that's being currently collected to
go ahead and compost, if that jumps up with a significant amount of community interest,
then, obviously, we would -- that would be a trigger for us, too. So, like I say, once we
have got on record the amount of -- of organic material that's being developed by the
city and some of the options that can be done with it, then, we can work with -- in our
group to figure out the recommendations and will be before Council at that point to
recommend changes if they are appropriate.
Strader: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Council Woman Strader.
Strader: Yeah. I appreciate you saying that. I mean there are a couple companies,
obviously, in the Treasure Valley that are expanding or looking at composting and I just
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 11 of 20
feel that the grass offering is not indicative of what the demand would be for a voluntary
organic waste composting program. It's just so limited, you know, compared to what
people could actually compost I think from their household. So, I appreciate you guys
continuously evaluating it and I look forward to reading the plan once it's all finished up
and reviewed by SWAC. Thanks.
Simison: Thank you.
Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Councilman Hoaglun.
Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor. Steve, you had mentioned household hazardous waste contractor
staffing issues, which is not unusual -- unusual at this time with a lot of businesses. But
are they still able to provide regular service for our household hazardous waste
program?
Cory: Yes. It still continues to be the case that on Monday afternoons from 11:00 to
5:00 -- 6:00 -- 11:00 to 6:00 people that go to the Meridian transfer station on Franklin
are able to go ahead and get rid of their household hazardous waste, any chemicals
that have expired their shelf -- shelf life, any excess materials and such. So, yes, we
haven't had a -- an issue with level of service per se at this particular point, but it is
something that is -- has hit our radar screen and we feel like it needs to be watched
closely.
Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Councilman Hoaglun.
Hoaglun: Yeah. That's -- that's an important program keeping those types of products
out of our waste stream and handled properly. So, that's something definitely keep an
eye on that and let us know if there is anything we need to do. Thanks.
Simison: Thank you.
Perreault: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Council Woman Perreault.
Perreault: Thank you so much for that update and just curious about -- what you said
about the planning -- the financial planning for expansion of the landfill many years from
now. Is there an anticipation that it will continue to physically expand in its current
location or that they might add another location in Ada county?
Cory: The landfill has expressed the point that they definitely have to be making
commitments 20 years in advance. So, that brings -- walks it back to 2045. A lot of

design efforts, land acquisition, numerous other activities that are associated with it and,
of course, even before you do those type of activities they need to do some preparatory
work. So, we expect to be hearing quite a bit in the near future about their plans for this
activity. But particularly with the transition of management a year and a half ago when
they picked up our -- our employee Tom Otte up there, they have had a laser focus on
doing anything they can to reverse the trend and try to extend the length of the land --
the life of the landfill. So, we are hoping that some projects will be put together either at
the landfill or within the community that might give people opportunities to divert even
more material, so that we don't end up -- we can postpone that time when we might be
tasking the taxpayers of the time, which would be our grandkids or kids, you know, that
we don't want to see that tax increase any sooner than it has to be occurring.
Simison: Council, any additional questions or comments? Okay. Well, thank you very
much, Steve. We do look forward to seeing those things come forward. So, best to you
and the staff on continuing to advance these priorities.
Cory: Thank you very much.
11. Finance Department: Fiscal Year 2022 Budget to Actual Results
Simison: All right. As we see our CFO start to stand up -- Item 11 is the Finance
Department fiscal year 2022 budget to actual results. Mr. Lavoie, the floor is yours.
Lavoie: Good evening, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, again, appreciate you
giving us an opportunity to provide you and an update on the fiscal year 2022 financial
results. So, as a reminder, fiscal year 2022 ended on 9/30 -- or 9/30/2022 for the 12
months preceding that. I'm going to present to you today the results of the actual
financials and a note to you that our audit is started today. So, our auditor showed up to
audit these numbers. So, I'm presenting to you unaudited figures. Again, we are
confident that the numbers won't change dramatically. So, the numbers that you see
here are unaudited numbers at the moment. But, again, our auditors did show up today
and we should have an audit report in front of you in about 30 days. So, today what we
are going to go over is the fiscal year '22 financial results. Also explain to you what the
results of the fund balances were for the General Fund and the Enterprise Fund. By
ordinance I need to submit to you a separate report for the impact fee. So, this adheres
to that -- or that meets that requirement. So, I will give you the results of the impact fee
fund itself and, then, I will give you a glimpse of what you will receive from me on the
next quarterly report and, then, stand for any questions. But at anytime please interrupt
me if you have questions on any topics or any items that you want to discuss. What I
will do first is I will go through the General Fund and, then, I will go to the General Fund
fund balance and, then, we will talk about the Enterprise Fund, talk about the Enterprise
Fund balance and, then, we will go to the impact fee fund. So, the first fund that we will
start off with is our first major fund, which is the General Fund and we finished the fiscal
year for fiscal '22 for the General Fund -- total revenues -- so, I'm going to go revenues
first, then, we will do expenses second. So, we finished the year of 12 percent higher.
So, our budget was off by 12 percent on the good side. So, the results were 12 percent
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 13 of 20
higher than we expected for fiscal year 2022 and you can see that the largest difference
of -- you know, if we missed any from a target perspective was in the licenses and
permits, which ended up at 69.5 percent higher than we expected. That represents the
permits that you approved throughout the fiscal year and for fiscal year '22 you
approved 331 more multi-family permits than we had projected. So, hence, why it's
higher than our numbers. And, then, you actually approved the highest amount of
commercial square foot we have ever approved in a calendar year -- fiscal year. So,
again, we did not project a pinnacle of revenue expectations and commercial, hence
why we missed the target by 69 percent. So, again, it's on the good side. But, again,
the reason why we missed it by 69 was our conservative numbers were outpaced by
your approvals, which is fine, but that's why you see us missing the target by 69 percent
on the Community Development side and, then, the second largest item that you will
see we missed the target by was these intergovernmental. We missed
intergovernmental by 33 percent and that's because of the sales tax revenue exceeded
our expectations. So, when we built this budget 20 months ago we were still in that
COVID concern, so we went super conservative on the sales tax revenue projections
and Idaho as you have heard and seen and know has been very strong and healthy
over the past 12 months and 18 months. We have adjusted our sales tax revenue
projections based on new actuals. So, for '23 and '24 you will see our -- hopefully we
will have a better performance when we report back to you in 12 months on '23 and '24.
And, then, the most important revenue source that we have in the General Fund is
property tax. As you can see it's by far the largest of all the revenue sources even
combined all the other ones don't meet it and we missed it by one percent. We are
super happy with the one percent. Our average is about one to two percent we missed
that target number by, so, again, we missed it by one percent and that is the most
important one we have. So, we try to make sure that one is as close to a hundred
percent as possible. And, then, the last item that we will talk about a little bit later is --
what have we got -- is going to be the impact fees, but I will present the impact fees at
the end of the presentation. So, again, at the end of the day our General Fund -- we
missed the target by 12 percent, but on the good side and, hopefully, that explains kind
of what we did there. For fiscal '24 budget, I'm just going to touch on that. We are
working on that now with you. So, if you have questions about fiscal '24 revenue
projections, I would love to discuss that in a separate meeting, if possible. I'm happy to
go through and present to you on anything, if you have any questions like how do we
project these revenue sources, I'm happy to give a one-on-one class. You can stop by
our office anytime to discuss revenue projections. That's what we are here for. So, that
is revenue in a nutshell for the General Fund. So, now we will --
Strader: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Council Woman Strader.
Strader: Hey, Todd, yeah, you know what I would like to get is a ten year look back of
the General Fund and our actual revenue versus the budget. That would be awesome.
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 14 of 20
Lavoie: Council -- Liz, is it possible I can give you back to 2016? 1 don't know if I have
2015 and '14. 1 can get you 2016 very confidently.
Strader: I will take eight years that's perfectly fine.
Lavoie: Thank you very much. So, I will give you 2016 budget to actuals for revenue for
General Fund. Done. Okay. With that we will jump into the expense side of the
General Fund and we will start off with personnel expenses first. For the fiscal year
ending '22 we ended up spending 93.3 percent of the budget that you provided us as a
city. Our average from 2016 is 93 percent. So, again, we actually hit a little bit better
than target for our average. The largest gap from a percentage missed is -- you can
see on the screen is the community development, we spent 75 percent of our budget,
and the primary reason for the gap -- or under spending of the personnel budget was
due to the inability to hire within fiscal '22. It was very difficult for them to hire and to
retain the -- some of the staff. So, that's why you see the less spent amount for
Community Development and just to give you a precursor into what you will see in the
next slide, you will see their operating expenses going to be much larger, because they
had to outsource those still services needed for the permits were approved. So, you will
see their expenses exceeded their budget. Their revenues exceeded their budget, but
the personnel was lower. So, it kind of all kind of works together. But, again, our
largest variance was Community Development for '22 and, then, also from a dollar wise
standpoint they had the largest variance of 1.1 million, quote, unquote, left on the
books. Again -- but that money was -- you will see on the next slide was offset by
operating expense needs and you can see the other departments accordingly how they
performed from a budget to actual standpoint for the personnel expenses.
Simison: And, Todd, if I'm not mistaken our Police Department had a much larger --
better spin this year in this regard than previous years as well.
Lavoie: Robert, confirmed. They had -- this is one of their better performing years year
over year over year. Yes.
Simison: Nice job, PD.
Lavoie: Agreed. That will move us into the next reporting group for expenses, which is
what we call our operating expenses. For the year we ended up spending 100 -- we
ended up spending 6.2 percent more than what we had budgeted. Our average is -- we
normally spend 89 percent of what's budgeted, but this year we spent 106 and you can
see the outliers right there in Community Development. Community Development,
again, had to continue to approve those commercial projects that you approved, those
rental multi-family projects that you approved and we had to outsource those services.
We didn't have the staff in house to make this happen. But the good thing is for every
operating expense you see here there is a positive revenue offset to counteract this.
So, for every dollar that you spend in operating you actually generate more in revenue
from our contract. So, again, I know it looks scary there, but just know that they -- they
had revenue to offset every single one of those expenses and a profit on each one of
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 15 of 20
those. The admin department left a few -- let's see, we left about 30 percent and that
was primarily -- or about 1.2 million. Six hundred thousand dollars we left on the books
for a grant that we are still working on that we carried it into '23 and, then, we had
600,000 dollars in streetlight projects that we were not able to complete that we carried
into '23 as well. So, the 1 .2 million that you see gapped, we did carry into '23 to get
those projects completed and, then, you will see that Parks Department did overspend
and that's primarily because in fiscal '23 we did not have a budget for the golf course,
nor the pool. We absorbed those costs. Fiscal '23 is the first year that we as a city
established a budget. So, they did go over budget, but it's because I did not create a
budget for them in '23. That should look much better next year for fiscal '24. Again, for
those expenses you also have offsetting revenues. Those are the operating expenses.
Then our third and final expense category that we report to you on an annual basis is
capital. For the fiscal year '22 we did spend 29.9 percent of the budget that you
provided us for the 12 months. Of the remaining difference, which equals 39 million --
so we did not spend 39 million that you allocated to us -- we carried 38 of it into '23. So,
you got Discovery Park, you have got two fire stations, you have got a free police
precincts, you got other multiple projects. So, I can tell you of the unspent 39 million,
we asked to carry 38 of it so to get done in fiscal '23. So, by the end of fiscal '23 the
General Fund should spend about -- maybe not '23, maybe '23 and '24 -- 55 million
dollars for the projects that you have allocated to us. The team members, the project
managers, they just need a little bit more time to get those dollars spent for you, but we
did carry 38 of 39 million forward, so we can complete those projects at the golf course,
at the parks, and the fire stations. So, that is capital. So, in general -- or in summary,
sorry, the General Fund -- again, we talked about revenues, 12 percent higher good
problem to have. All your expenses -- you can see 93 percent of personnel under
budget. Operating we did go a little over budget because of the golf course, the pool,
and the community development and, then, capital at 30 percent. So, again, all good
problems to have for the General Fund from a spending compared to budget. So, the
question is what did this do to our financial position for the fiscal year ending 9/30/2022.
The General Fund added 2.9 million dollars to the fund balance. The Impact Fee Fund
actually used up four million. The Community Development Department added 3.6.
Capital Improvement Fund used up 1.8. Public Safety about -- used up about 10,000 --
the grant fund added a thousand and the General Fund -- all the non-funds before that
added five million dollars. We put that all together, that is a net increase to the General
Fund's fund balance of 2.9 million. So, the question is what does your fund balance
look like now? The City of Meridian's fund balance, as will be reported next month in
the audit report, will have 108 million dollars in their General Fund fund balance, which
is an increase of 2.9 million as displayed. Of the 108 million, 3.8 million is restricted.
That is for prepayments, some other things we have already committed to, inventory.
We can't touch those. We have 22 million dollars associated to -- or are restricted to the
Impact Fee Funds. So, we can't touch those. Those are identified for the Impact Fee
Funds. We have 22.7 million dollars allocated to the capital projects and public safety
fund dollars. So, those are already committed to those projects. The assigned is 32.9
million. So, those dollars are all assigned from a Capital Improvement Project plan from
our CFP modeling. So, again, we have already allocated -- or kind of earmarked
projects that those dollars are used for. You take all those numbers that leaves you 1.3
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 16 of 20
million dollars unassigned that -- of the 108 million we have already accounted for. All
but 1.3 million dollars for the General Fund. So, that is the impact for the -- those are
the results of fiscal '22 and how they impact the General Fund fund balance -- oops.
For fiscal '22. Any questions on General Fund results fiscal year '22? Again, we will do
the exact same thing for Enterprise Fund next. And if no questions, again, feel free to
send us an e-mail, we will get you answers to the '22 results and, then, the auditor will
provide the '22 audit report in 30 days.
Simison: Council, any questions or comments? Council Woman Perreault.
Perreault: So, Todd, you said that the offsets -- the additional approximate 15 percent
that was spent by Parks was because of the pool and the golf course expenses, but the
revenues offset that. So, are you talking about total costs and revenues for the General
Fund or are you just saying that there specifically were revenues by those two
recreation entities that offset that 50 percent in parks? I was under the impression that
there was not that much excess -- excess revenue that came in for those two entities to
-- to recreation facilities.
Lavoie: You are correct, Jessica, that the increase in expenses was a direct result of
the golf course and the pool. You are correct there. There were revenues that did
offset that, but you are correct that that -- the statement of a hundred percent of
coverage, that was not made. So, yeah, you are correct on both statements.
Perreault: Okay.
Lavoie: With that we will go into our next major reporting fund, which is the Enterprise
Fund. Again for results ending 9/30/2022 for the 12 months prior. I would look at
revenues first. So, for the entire fiscal year for fiscal '22 we ended up five percent off
target. So, we ended up at 105.5 percent. So, we missed the target by five percent for
the entire Enterprise Fund. The most important revenue sources on these I believe are
the water and sewer sales and you can see we missed those target lines by one to two
percent. So, we are very happy with those. The two outliers you will see are going to
be assessment and assessment, which is not a surprise to us. We talked about impact
fees and development fees. Again, those are all based on permits. We already kind of
talked about multi-family and commercial, so we were not surprised that you exceeded
our conservative numbers. So, again, those are two results of the outliers, direct impact
from your -- or not your, but the direct impact from the decisions for multi-family and
commercial. Again, we will always want to protect our most important revenue sources,
which are water sales and sewer sales and, again, they are very strong and healthy at
the moment. Revenues are complete. So, we will look at expenses. We will report
personnel, operating and capital, just like we did with the General Fund. So, the first
category of operating that we look at is personnel. For the entire fiscal year '22 we
ended up spending 87.2 percent of what you budgeted us for fiscal '22. Our average for
Enterprise Fund is 89.8. So, a little bit lower than our normal average since 2016 that
we have been tracking this data for and, then, you can see the -- again, they are all
pretty -- pretty much average at 87, 88 percent and the primary reason for the
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 17 of 20
underspending is due to the staffing. Again, you will see this as a common statement.
We have vacancies. We still have vacancies. We are managing the vacancies the best
we can. We are trying to hire as often -- as fast as we can, but '22 just presented some
challenges unique to itself. So, you will see that -- I would say the answer for all four of
those reporting departments is vacancies led to the underspending of the personnel
budgets provided to us for fiscal '22. The next major reporting group is operating. For
the fiscal year '22 ended we spent 85.8 percent of what you provided us from the
budgets. Our average for the Enterprise Fund is 81.2 percent. So, we performed better
than we have in the past. Again, the averages are based on data collected since 2016.
So, as you can see the largest department with the primary -- or largest gap for this data
is going to be the water department at 14.1 at 570,000 dollars and that was primarily for
the -- let's see what we got. I believe that was for the water meters and consulting
projects. And, then, the largest gap percentage is for the Public Works Department, you
can see it's 32.1 and they left 300,000 dollars on the table with 264,000 of those
300,000 dollars being requested to be carried forward -- again, ongoing consulting
projects that need more than 12 months to complete. Other than that, again, the
operating expense for the Enterprise Fund was -- again what we would deem as solid.
The last reporting group is capital. Capital Expenditures for fiscal year '22. Enterprise
Fund spent 34.3 percent of the budget that you provided them for fiscal '22. From a
value standpoint that's 30 million dollars left unspent, but they did request 29 million of
the 30 million to be carried into '23 to continue the projects, so that they can complete
those in fiscal '23 and '24. So, hopefully, by the end of '24 you will see that they have --
they will have spent 44 of the 45 million dollars that they requested from you in fiscal
'22. So, with that Enterprise Fund in summary, revenues were off by five percent on the
good side. Personnel, operating and capital you can see we are off on the good side
again, underspent, under budget, with explanations of why we were under budget on
those particular three reporting groups and that leads the question what did that do to
the fund balance of the Enterprise Fund? When you put it all together we added 11.1
million dollars to the Enterprise Fund balance. Again, majority of that is going to be
requested to be carried into fiscal '23. So, it is already in theory spent with the projects
that we are moving forward with and you can see the reporting groups, how they
impacted the Enterprise Fund fund balance of 11 million. When you add those four
numbers up that's what you get to for 11 million. So, of that 11 million what did that do
to the impact -- sorry -- not Impact Fund, for Enterprise Fund. Fiscal year ending
9/30/2022 your Enterprise Fund is now 96 million dollars. Of the 96 million dollars we
have 75.5 million assigned. So, that means we have got projects planned for, we have
got projects ready to move, so of that we are in -- leaving about 16 million for assigned
for reserves and, then, we have 4.8 unassigned. So, if we add up the 75 for assigned
projects that we know that are moving forward and, then, 16 million for reserves, that
leaves you about 4.8 on unassigned fund balance dollars for the Enterprise Fund. Now,
with that I believe that's the summary for the Enterprise Fund. I'm happy to answer any
questions on the results of fiscal year 2022 Enterprise Fund.
Simison: Council, any questions? Okay.
Meridian City Council Work Session
February 21,2023
Page 18 of 20
Lavoie: Thank you. So, we will go ahead and jump into the Impact Fee Fund. So, for
fiscal year 2022 ending, our revenues ended 6.4 percent higher than what we projected.
Again, the growth of the permitting outpaced our projections. Again, we will continue to
adjust our projections based on results and what we believe will be approved. I will go
through Fire, Parks and Police independently, just so -- just so you can see the results
of each fund. So, the Fire Department ended the year with 34 percent more revenue
than what we projected, again, based on the commercial and the multi-family and, then,
the Fire Department spent 37 percent of their fund balance. Again, as you know, they
are building two fire stations right now. Next year will be a different story. We will have
a much higher number spent, because by then that should be majority of that project --
those two projects should be complete. That will get us to the next department that we
report on that is the Parks Department. Again, they came in a little bit under budget
from a revenue standpoint. They don't get to charge for commercial, which is a large
function of why you see the Parks -- or Fire and Police you will see the revenues higher.
They don't get to collect revenues from the commercial activity. So, again, we missed
their target line just by a little bit. Again, we will continue to tweak our projection, so we
can get closer to a hundred percent, but they did under spend their budgets -- they
spent 43 percent of their budget and that's primarily for Discovery Park, which, as you
know, is still in process. So, in 2023 you will see probably a larger spent for '23 and,
then, the last department we collect impact fees for is the Police Department. Again,
revenues exceeded our projections and, then, their budget for capital, as you know a
precinct is currently being worked on, so in 2023 you should see a larger spent results
for that one, which is -- which gets us to the final results of the Impact Fee Fund. We
ended the year six percent higher in budget for revenues, but we only spent 39 percent
of the capital, which was all -- which will be carried forward into '23, which will be spent
mostly in '23 and '24. So, what did that do to the Impact Fee Fund in general? We
used 4.1 million dollars of the Impact Fee Fund, which is great. Again, we are a save
before you spend agency, just like the Enterprise Fund, General Fund, Impact Fee is
the same way. We save it before we spend. So, we are finally drawing down on those
fund balances that we have been saving for. No different than the Enterprise Fund
does and no different than the General Fund does. We save it, so we don't borrow and
so that's why you see a negative on that position for the impact fees. Again, this is
exactly what we want to see happen on the Impact Fee Fund. So, those are the three --
well, the General Fund, the Enterprise Fund and the Impact Fee Fund. Those are what
we have to by ordinance present to you. So, again, presented those three particular
things to you. The next quarterly meeting -- again, I will be presenting to you more in a
demographic standpoint and it will -- won't be a presentation from here, I will just e-mail
you the results and, then, with that I stand for more questions if you have them.
Simison: Thank you. Council, additional questions or comments?
Overton: Mr. Mayor?
Simison: Councilman Overton.
Meridian City Council Work Session

Overton: Todd, once again, fantastic review of our city's financials and how healthy the
city's going and kudos to your staff, for you guys putting together such a detailed list of
everything and explaining in such detail the differences that we see, so we are not just
looking at a graph trying to figure it out ourselves. Excellent job. I appreciate it very
much.
Lavoie: Appreciate it, John. Again, you guys start -- you guys give us the budget and
it's our job to make sure we are accountable to you and the citizens and that's our job.
Again, I would -- I would agree with you, John, that the city is in very strong financial
condition. Robert and I have been working together for 15 years and I can still stand in
front of you, Robert, right now and say the city's debt free. It's pretty amazing that we
are an outlier in the United States of America that we are still debt free. Robert, nice to
have a plan for a ten year plan to stay debt free. Again, we will have discussions each
year. But the city is in a very healthy position, something to be proud of as you --
Council, you give us these dollars to spend and, then, your directors and Robert spend
it. So, again, we are happy to present. This is a great -- I enjoy standing up here and
saying, yes, you are in a great position, John.
Simison: Council Woman Strader.
Strader: Yeah. It's a question that Councilman Cavener I think had as well, but I don't
think he was able to join us and I think -- but it's just a general question as we look for
the budgeting process this year kind of what can we expect, you know, in terms of the
process, when should we receive our budget books? Do we have a different format?
And I realized that's not the exact topic of this presentation, but I just think it would be
good to get kind of an overview, either now or in a follow up.
Lavoie: Fair question, Liz. We were happy to present to you the budget calendar. We
will e-mail you the calendar with all the due dates. It will hold your hand through when
we expect communications from our directors, from Mayor, from the Council, any inputs
that you would like to contribute to the development of the '24 budget -- you will receive
the budget book closer in the month of May. We have provided you and all employees
here at the City of Meridian access to the budget in detail via our software solution
called Questica. We are happy to provide any training to any of our employees, to you
Council Members, to allow you to be informed and empowered to be able to research
any of the budget dollars that we are going to present to you in the month of May with
the Mayor's budget proposal. But, no, we will get in May another budget book --
another budget calendar out to the Council so they can see the -- the deadlines and due
dates of when we would like to have information presented by you, Council, and/or the
directors to Robert for consideration for the '24 budget development. Would love the
input.
Strader: Thanks for sending. Appreciate it.
Lavoie Yep. Thank you.

again, I don't think it's wrong to look at another way to do it.

IV. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS(Comprehensive Plan)
Land Use: The Future Land Use Map(FLUM)contained in the Comprehensive Plan designates this
property as Mixed Use—Community(MU-C). The purpose of this designation is to allocate areas
where community-serving uses and dwellings are seamlessly integrated into the urban fabric. The
intent is to integrate a variety of uses, including residential,and to avoid mainly single-use and strip
commercial type buildings.Non-residential buildings in these areas have a tendency to be larger than
in Mixed Use Neighborhood(MU-N) areas. Goods and services in these areas tend to be of the
variety that people will mainly travel by car to,but also walk or bike to (up to 3 or 4 miles).
Employment opportunities for those living in and around the neighborhood are encouraged.
Page 3
E
i
Developments are encouraged to be designed according to the conceptual MU-C plan depicted in
i
Figure 3C. (See pgs. 3-11 through 3-16 for more information.)
The Applicant proposes to develop the subject property with four(4)multi-tenant commercial/office
buildings with associated outdoor plazas and surface parking. The existing development plan was
reviewed and deemed to be generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan with H-2017-0095.
Staff has reviewed the proposed conceptual development plan for consistency with the development
guidelines in the Plan and recommends changes to the plan as noted below in Section V.A consistent E
with the following general guidelines for Mixed-Use and specifically MU-C developments:
• "In developments where multiple commercial and/or office buildings are proposed,the
buildings should be arranged to create some form of common,usable area,such as a plaza or
green space."(Pg. 3-13)
I
• "Supportive and proportional public and/or quasi-public spaces and places including but not
limited to parks,plazas,outdoor gathering areas, open space,libraries,and schools that
comprise a minimum of 5%of the development area are required. Outdoor seating at
restaurants do not count toward this requirement."(Pg. 3-16)
The following Comprehensive Plan Policies are also applicable to this development: (Staffs
analysis in italics)
f
• "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities
and urban services at the time of final approval,and in accord with any adopted levels of
service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F)
City water and sewer service is available and can be extended by the developer with
development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. Urban services are available to be provided
upon development.
• "Encourage compatible uses and site design to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land."
(3.07.00)
The proposed commercial/off ce uses should be compatible with existing residential and
church uses to the east and south; and with future commercial uses to the west.
• "Encourage and support mixed-use areas that provide the benefits of being able to live,shop,
dine,play,and work in close proximity,thereby reducing vehicle trips,and enhancing overall
livability and sustainability."(3.06.02B)
The proposed mix of commercial/office uses should provide needed services for nearby
residents and employees.
• "Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and
the extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City
of Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development."
(3.03.03A)
The proposed development will connect to City water and sewer systems;services are
required to be provided to and though this development in accord with current City plans.
V. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE ANALYSIS U.
A. Development Agreement Modification(MDA):
The Applicant proposes a modification to the existing Development Agreement(DA)for Linder
Mixed Use(Inst.#2018-052340)to update the conceptual development plan&building
i
E
1
elevations for this site to accommodate the proposed development; and remove the Chili's
restaurant conceptual building elevations from the agreement.No changes are proposed to the
text of the agreement.Note: The overall DA is for a larger 5-acre area; the portion subject to the
proposed modification is the northeastern 2.93 acres.
The existing plan depicts a 7,000 square foot(s.£)and 10,000 s.f.buildings with a shared outdoor
plaza area in between the two buildings with surface parking around the perimeter of the
buildings.A dance studio and event center for dance recitals and performances were originally
anticipated to develop on this site but is no longer planned(see Section VII.A below). Conceptual
elevations are included in the existing DA for a Chile's restaurant,a couple of multi-tenant
buildings and an event center.
The proposed development plan includes four(4)multi-tenant commercial/office buildings with
individual outdoor plazas at the rear of each building,a pedestrian walkway around each building
with a connection in between the two northern buildings and two southern buildings,and surface
parking internal to the site. Conceptual elevations for the proposed structures are also included
(see Section VII.B below).As part of the modification,the Applicant proposes to remove the
conceptual elevations for the Chili's restaurant and the event center.
A north/south backage road exists along the west boundary of this site that provides an
access from the collector street(W.Cayuse Creek Dr.)to the north to Linder Rd.at the
south boundary of Bountiful Commons Subdivision.Staff is concerned the ten(10)parking I
spaces depicted on the site plan along the west boundary of the site will create a safety
hazard by vehicles backing out into traffic; therefore,Staff recommends these spaces are
removed from the plan.
An existing provision of the DA(#5.1b)requires a minimum of 5%of the development area
to be developed with supportive and proportional public and/or quasi-public spaces and
places.Based on 2.93 acres,a minimum area of 0.15-acre(or 6,382 square feet)would be
required.In mixed use designated areas where multiple commercial and/or office buildings
are proposed,the Comprehensive Plan also desires buildings to be arranged to create some j
form of common,usable area,such as a plaza or green space.To create more of a shared j
common usable area as desired,Staff recommends instead of individual outdoor plaza areas
for each building,the parking areas in between Buildings A&B and C&D are removed j
and a plaza/green space is provided in these areas with seating,landscaping and shade
structures.
Note:The conceptual development plan depicts a total building square footage of 31,488+/-s.f.
between four(4)buildings.For a commercial/office use in a commercial district,a minimum of
63 off-street parking spaces would be required;a total of 154 spaces are proposed.Even with
removal of 34 spaces as recommended,a total of 120 spaces will still be provided,which Staff
believes will meet the needs of the development.
Staff has reviewed the provisions of the existing DA and finds the proposed conceptual
development plan to be in compliance with these provisions if the Applicant complies with the
recommended changes to the plan.
Staff is generally supportive of the proposed modification to the DA with the recommended
changes to the conceptual development plan noted above.Staff recommends the Applicant
revise the plans to incorporate these changes and submit a copy of the revised plan to the
Planning Division at least 10 days prior to the City Council hearing.

B. Preliminary/Final Plat(PFP): j
A combined preliminary and final plat is proposed to re-subdivide a portion of Lot 1 and all of
Lot 4,Block 1,Bountiful Commons Subdivision.The current configuration of the property was
created through Record of Survey#13333 associated with PBA-2022-0004.The proposed plat
consists of three(3)building lots on 2.20 acres of land in the C-C zoning district.
Existing Structures/Site Improvements:
There are no existing structures on this site;the previous structures have been removed. j
Dimensional Standards:
Development of the proposed lots is required to comply with the dimensional standards of the C-
C zoning district in UDC Table 11-2B-3.
Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards(UDC 11-6C-3
Development of the subdivision is required to comply with the subdivision design and
improvement standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3.
Access(UDC 11-3A-3)
Access to the site exists via a private driveway/backage road that runs parallel to N.Linder Rd. j
depicted in an easement on the plat.No stub streets exist to the site and none are proposed or
required to be provided to adjacent properties. A cross-access easement agreement(Inst.#2018-
108834)exists between all lots in the subdivision that grants access over drive aisles and parking
areas per plat note#12.
Pathways(UDC 11-3A-8):
There are no pathways depicted on the Pathways Master Plan for this site. The existing DA `
(provision#5.1i)requires a pedestrian pathway connection to be provided to the church
property(Parcel#R6905150070)at the south boundary of the site;the site/landscape plan
shall be revised accordingly.
The existing DA also requires a walkway to be provided along one side of the north/south
backage driveway for safe pedestrian access and connectivity.Because a sidewalk was
constructed on the Beehive Credit Union(A-2020-0032)site to the west of the proposed
development along the west side of the driveway,Staff is not including a requirement for a
walkway to be constructed on the east side of the driveway on the subject property.
Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-1
There are no public streets proposed within this site or that exist adjacent to the site;therefore,
sidewalks are not required.

development—request fora solid wood fence to be installed- location of the trash
enclosure adjacent to the berm along the east side of the property adjacent to residences
-preference for it to be located at the northwest corner of the site;preference for
Buildings B &C not to be turned north/south as it would block the neighbors' view the
fence line on the adjacent residential properties being set in 3-feet from the property line
due to the location of the irrigation ditch where a berm/buffer is now proposed to be
constructed—would like to gain that 3-feet of their property back;and the slope of the
berm Proposed along the east boundary and concern pertaining to drainage onto their lot
and security concerns due to the height of the berm in relation to the fence(someone

SCOPE OF WORK
REFER TO INVITATION TO BID (BID NUMBER) ALL ADDENDUMS,
ATTACHMENTS, AND EXHIBITS included in the Invitation to Bid
Package # (PW-2311-11032.b), are by this reference made a part
hereof.
SPECIFICATIONS / SCOPE OF WORK
All construction work shall be done in accordance with the current version
of the Idaho Standards for Public Works Construction (ISPWC), the 2013
City of Meridian Supplemental Specifications to the ISPWC (and any
Addendums).
Water Main Replacement Scope
The City intends to replace approximately 530 lineal feet of existing 6" water main with new 8"
water main located in W. Idaho Avenue from NW. 2nd Street to Meridian Road. Approximately
86 lineal feet of new 8" dry line water main was installed across the intersection of NW. 1st
Street and W. Idaho Ave. with the 2017 NW 1 st Street Sewer Project. The replacement water
main will connect to each end of this dry line. At the east end of the project, the new water main
will connect to an existing water main constructed as part of the Split Corridor-Phase 2 Project.
At the west end of the project, the new water main will connect to an existing 8" main located
in NW 2nd Street. Two existing fire hydrants will be reconnected and, if necessary, relocated
nearby. Of the fifteen properties immediately adjacent to the project, many have existing meters
in front of the sidewalk. These meters are intended to be relocated behind the existing sidewalks
and a new service installed from the new main to the relocated meter setters. The majority of
all work is anticipated to be in public right-of-way or existing easements. The city will assist in
coordinating with property owners to have water meters located on their property immediately
outside of the right-of-way.
W. Idaho Water Main and NW 1 st Street Sewer Main - Replacements
Project #11032.b
Sewer Main Replacement Scope
The CITY intends to extend new collection sewers in NW 1st Street between (West Railroad
Street to West Broadway Avenue) and north of West Pine Avenue approximately 200 feet to
serve the Boys and Girls Club campus. Overall, new collection sewers will encompass
approximately 550 lineal feet. Approximately, 38 services will be re-routed of which 20 are new
services from the main. The remaining are connections to existing service stub-outs. Overall
the plan includes: 1) Homes fronting NW 1st Street from the Pine Avenue to Railroad Street
and including the Boys and Girls Club north of Pine Avenue, 2) Homes fronting the west side
of Meridian Road between Pine Avenue and Idaho Avenue as served from sewers in Idaho
Avenue or Pine Avenue, 3) Homes fronting Idaho Street one-half block west of NW 1 st Street
to Meridian Road. This allows the abandonment of the existing alleyway sewer located between
NW 1 st Avenue and Meridian Road from Pine Avenue to Idaho Avenue. This project conforms
to the CITY's overall objective of decommissioning existing alley sewers in the downtown area.

Re: 2022 SWAC Annual Report
SWAC is pleased to submit its 2022 Annual Report:
A. Membership:
The Commission was fully staffed this year and we appreciate the Council's support.
Commissioner Steve Cory served as Chair and Commissioner Meg Larsen served as Vice Chair.
B. Community Recycling Fund Program(CRFP):
1. Fund Revenue: During FY22, despite the global market, the CRFP received revenue:
$ 50,641.03 Beginning balance for FY22;
$ 31,385.57 Revenue for FY22 (mostly from Hand in Hand We Recycle and $761.25
donated from Public Works Week proceeds)
$ 82,026.60 Sum Beginning Balance and Revenue (as of Sep. 30, 2022)
2. Fund Expenses: During FY22, the following fund's expenses were incurred:
$ 0 No expenditures
3. FY22 Approved Projects —Final accounting yet to be completed—None
$ 82,026.60 FY22 Ending Fund Balance
C. Trash or Treasure:
This innovative program was again conducted throughout the city. The event occurred the
weekend prior to the 2022 Spring Collection week. This is now a city event and SWAC
supported city staff by observing the event and providing photographs.
D. SWAC Annual Activity:
SWAC participated in the 2022 PW Expo event on June 8th. SWAC was pleased to participate
since the 2021 event had to be canceled due to COVID. Commissioners were able to talk with
about 75 visitors at the booth, and most of the questions were about what could be recycled in

the cart. City staff hosted a booth outside with Republic Services and Timbercreek where booth
visitors could play a sorting game with recyclable material that complimented the information
visitors received at both booths.
E. Recycle a Bicycle:
SWAC was also pleased to provide support to the Recycle a Bicycle program last year. 46
bicycles were refurbished for distribution at the Parks and Recreation Department's Unplug and
Be Outside event. Bicycles were made available to Meridian Citizens who signed up through the
City's website. Despite a downpour, 34 requested bikes were delivered. The remaining bicycles
went to the Boise Rescue Mission and Farmway Village residents in Canyon County.
F. Global Recycling Markets:
While recycling markets and recycling revenue continued to recover, revenue losses continued
for Meridian's commingled recyclable stream. Revenues did increase,but processing and labor
costs offset the improvement. SWAC continued to work with Republic Services and City staff to
review the request from Republic Services for sharing of recycling processing losses agreeing to
propose approval of another one-year extension of the processing fee. The per household
recycled material processing fee was raised from $1.03 to $1.11 for FY23.
G. Ada County Solid Waste Advisory Committee:
SWAC Chair, Steve Cory, represents the City of Meridian's interests on the Ada County Solid
Waste Advisory Committee. Mr. Cory was elected chair of the Ada County SWAC for 2023. This
committee allows stakeholders to work in concert with one another to research and develop
proposals for improving solid waste collection and disposal systems and services, including
maintaining reasonable financial costs for the operation of the Ada County Landfill. Diversion of
material away from the landfill to extend the life of the landfill is a routine subject at committee
meetings. Steve Cory reports back to Meridian SWAC throughout the year providing insight and
information about valley-wide solid waste matters.
H. FY22 Annual Solid Waste Rate Adjustment:
SWAC reviewed and recommended to City Council approval of Republic Service's proposed
FY23 Annual Solid Waste Rate Adjustment. The rate adjustment for both commercial and
residential services was comprised of the contractual CPI adjustment and the continuance of
sharing the residential recycling processing costs as set forth in a separate contract amendment
and incorporation of the FY 2022 fee increase to cover a significant spike in labor costs into the

3. Monitoring yard composting market trends and construction/demolition waste diversion
efforts;
4. Attending the quarterly Ada County Household Hazardous Waste Program meetings and
reporting back to SWAC and the Mayor and City Council as appropriate;
5. Partnering outside the city through the Ada County Solid Advisory Committee to develop
an amplified, unified message to divert materials from the landfill and reduce
contamination of materials collected for recycling;
6. Continued expansion of educational outreach to decrease contamination in the
commingled residential recycling stream;
7. Looking for opportunities to reach out to new residents of Meridian; and
8. Looking for opportunities to reach out to the youth of Meridian.
In conclusion, it has been an active year for SWAC. Our commitment is steadfast to work in
partnership with staff and Republic Services to identify and recommend to the Mayor and City
Council improved, fiscally sound, trash and recycling services and programs for the benefit of
Meridian residential and commercial customers. SWAC looks forward to another productive
year.

base waste collection fee. SWAC continues to be pleased that collection and processing costs to
recycle have been set forth separately from trash collection rates. SWAC continues to believe
that this transparency assists the city and public in better understanding the recycling industry's
strengths and weaknesses when contemplating future programs or changes to existing ones.
I. Subscription services:
Subscriptions for curbside grass pickup have increased to 664 subscribers as opposed to 521 last
year. Subscriptions for curbside glass pickup have increased to 190 subscribers as opposed to
170 last year. These are out of 40,388 active residential accounts.
J. Ada County Household Hazardous Waste Quarterly Meetings:
Commissioner Nelson and city staff attend the quarterly meetings to stay current on the county
HHHW program and related topics. They report back to SWAC after each meeting to review
what was discussed.
K. Presentations:
Throughout the year SWAC received presentations regarding the following topics:
1. Solid Waste Program metrics and data(City Staff);
2. Squishy Water Bottle pilot program report (Republic Services and City Staff);
3. CRFP Program and account balance (City Staff);
4. Community outreach(City Staff);
