to hope for a better tomorrow and so, God, that's what I'm asking for for our city. Just
thank you for the freedom that we have in this country and this beautiful state and city

choose to have peace and kindness towards one another and -- and love each other
and -- and so I just pray, God, that you would protect our -- our city tonight, the citizens.
We ask for special blessing over the first responders, the firefighters and -- and police

show a lot of grace to our elected officials here this evening and that they could make

DEPARTMENT/ COMMISSION REPORTS [Action Item]
8. Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Amendment for the amount of $367,700.00
to Cover Anticipated Additional Expense of Water and Wastewater
Chemicals for the Remainder of Fiscal Year 2023
Hoaglun: Okay. Item No. 8. Department/Commission Reports. I think Laurelei McVey,
Director of Public Works, has an item to present.
McVey: All right. Thank you, Council. So, tonight I am in front of you requesting an
FY-23 budget amendment in the amount of 367,700 dollars for chemicals for our water
and wastewater facilities. These chemicals are essential to meet public health and
regulatory requirements of both of the utilities. So, this budget amendment has
primarily been driven by significant pricing increases that we have seen across the
chemical industry. We plan for and try to predict these chemical budgets about eight
months in advance. However, we didn't anticipate some of the really large pricing
increases that we saw this year. We do several things to try to help mitigate costs, such
as optimizing chemical use at our facilities. We also work with vendors to try to get the
best pricing and we do competitively bid all of our chemicals to ensure that we are
obtaining the best prices possible for these required chemicals. So, we have also
increased our FY-24 budget estimates that we are working on to bring in front of you in
the next couple months to better reflect these current levels. So, with that I will stand for
any questions.
Meridian City Council

Hoaglun: Thank you, Laurelei and I wish you well in those estimates, because who
knows. Any questions for -- regarding this budget amendment?
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton, Just to comment. Laurelei mentioned this to me a couple weeks ago I think
and -- and one of the things that you do really well in Public Works is provide that
detailed context and explanation as to why and -- and explain for the public record the
efforts you take to mitigate costs and anticipate future increases. These are regulatory
requirements. We don't have an option to utilize these chemicals for necessary testing.
So, it definitely makes sense, but the background explanation you provide is very
important and helpful and I appreciate it.
Hoaglun: Any other questions? Councilman Borton.
Borton: Mr. President, I move that we approve the budget amendment as requested for
the fiscal year 2023 for Public Works in the amount of 367,700 dollars.
Cavener: Second.
Hoaglun: We have a motion and a second to approve the budget amendment for Public
Works in the amount of 367,700 dollars. Mr. Clerk, will you, please, call the roll?
Roll Call: Hoaglun, yea; Borton, yea; Cavener, yea; Perreault, absent; Strader, absent;

9. Public Hearing for Proposed Summer 2023 Fee Schedule of the
Meridian Parks and Recreation Department
Hoaglun: Thank you, Laurelei. Next up we have a public hearing regarding the
proposed 2023 summer fee schedule for the Parks Department. Garrett.
White: Mr. President, Members of the Council, thanks for having me tonight. This
should be pretty short and sweet I hope. In front of you are the 2023 summer activity
guide fee proposals. With that I will stand for questions.
Hoaglun: Council, any questions?

Cavener: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Yes.
Cavener: As I recall you came before us last week, we just had a noticing requirement
that we had to make sure that we fulfilled, so nothing else has changed since you
presented to us last week.
White: That's correct.
Hoaglun: Any further questions for Garrett? Anyone like to close the public hearing?
Oh, actually, I have to open the public hearing. The public hearing has been open. I
need to let folks know. Didn't have anybody last time, but just in case is there anybody
here who has signed up? Okay. Anybody here who wishes to testify? And do we have
anybody online? And I don't see anybody --
Johnson: Only city staff online.
Hoaglun: -- online to testify. So, do we have a motion? Councilman Cavener.
Cavener: Mr. President, I move we close the public hearing on the 2023 fee schedule.

Silverstone Way, south of Interstate 84, northeast of Overland Rd.
and Eagle Rd. and Rezone located at 1074 S. Silverstone Way, south
of Interstate 84, northeast of Overland Rd. and Eagle Rd.
A. Request: Annexation of a sliver of property currently zoned RUT in

Page 7 of 47
Hersh: Yes.
Hoaglun: All right.
Hersh: Good. Good evening, Council President and Council Members. The applicant
has submitted applications of annexation and rezone for Rackham East Subdivision.
The annexation is a sliver of property that consists of 0.143 acres of land that is
currently zoned RUT as part of the overall Eagle View Landing project with a C-G
zoning designation and that is located at 1032 South Silverstone Way. The rezone site
of 3.938 acres of land from C-G to the R-40 zoning district for the multi-family portion of
the project previously platted as Lots 18 and 19, Block 1, of the Rackham East
Subdivision located at 1074 South Silverstone Way. History on the property is
annexation and there is an existing development agreement that governs. The
Comprehensive Plan FLUM designation is medium -- medium use regional and the
summary of the request is a condition of approval of the Rackham East Subdivision or
Eagle View Landing project required the applicant to annex -- annex the outparcel along
the northern boundary of the site and rezone the western portion -- C-G zoned portion
of the multi-family development to R-40 within one year of the recordation of the
development agreement. This application request is to initially assure a cleanup of the
zoning for these sites. Commission recommended approval on the March 2nd hearing
and the summary of the condition -- of the Commission public hearing. Jon Wardle was
in favor from Brighton. In opposition was Michael Blowers. Commenting was Jon
Wardle. Written testimony was none. And key issues of concern were traffic concerns
with the overall development impacting the adjacent residents. Key issues of
discussion -- discussion by Commission was none. There were no changes to staffs
recommendation. And outstanding issues for City Council are none. There was written
testimony since the Commission hearing from Lyman Holyoke, who increased -- has
concerns with increased traffic and noise. Would like to see a solid fencing to mitigate
the noise and employees of the businesses making noise in their vehicles after their
night shifts. This concludes staff's presentation and I stand for any questions.
Hoaglun: Thank you, Stacy. Council, any questions for staff? Okay. Applicant. Mr.
Wardle.
Wardle: Good evening. For the record my name is Jon Wardle. My address is 2929
West Navigator Drive, Meridian, Idaho. 83642. Appreciate the opportunity just to testify
really briefly on this. I know that three of you were at the hearing when we did this last
year and at that hearing there was this question about a 14 foot strip of land along the
freeway and at the time we had acquired it, but it wasn't part of the application. So, this
is a cleanup bringing it in to the overall project. So, the zoning is the same. And during
the process as well working with staff with the multi-family piece, which you see down
here in orange, there is the blue piece, which is trapezoidal to the west. That's all multi-
family and so just cleaning it up into one zone as an R-40 zone, instead of split between
C-G and R-40. There is no changes to the project. These are just cleanup items as
part of the original approval last year and we are just trying to close the loop and clean
Meridian City Council

this whole project up in terms of zoning and parcels. Happy to answer any questions
you might have tonight on the project.
Hoaglun: Thank you. Council, any questions for the applicant?
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Yes, Councilman Borton.
Borton: I really appreciate the follow up, both with staff and the applicant on this item. It
is truly just that, a cleanup of what we already knew was going to need to take place.
So, appreciate both of you taking care of it.
Wardle: You bet. Thank you.
Hoaglun: Okay. I guess no further questions at this time, Jon.
Wardle: Thank you.
Hoaglun: Mr. Clerk, do we have anybody signed up to testify?
Johnson: Mr. Mayor, we do. Jeff Wrede.
Hoaglun: Okay. Mr. Wrede, can you come forward and -- would like to testify? Oh.
Okay. No worries. All right. Anybody online, Mr. Clerk. Didn't see anybody that looked
like they were --
Johnson: Mr. President, there is one person. If they want to speak they should raise
their hand.
Hoaglun: I don't see any hand raised, so we will just proceed. Does the applicant want
closing testimony? No closing testimony. So, Council?
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Move we close the public hearing on H-2022-0085.
Cavener: Second.
Hoaglun: I have a motion and a second to close the public hearing. All those in favor
signify by saying aye. Any opposed? Public hearing is closed.
MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT.

Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Stacy laid it out very clearly as to what's necessary here and why it's
necessary. I think the history and context explains very well why this small annexation
and rezone is appropriate and a final cleanup of this part of the project. So, with that I
move we approve H-2022-0085 as set forth in the staff report of March 28th, 2023.
Cavener: Second.
Hoaglun: We have a motion and a second for approval of the public -- the annexation
and rezone of H-2022-0085. Mr. Clerk, can you, please, call the roll.
Roll Call: Hoaglun, yea; Borton, yea; Cavener, yea; Perreault, absent; Strader, absent;
Overton, yea.
Hoaglun: All ayes. Motion carries. Thank you.
MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. TWO ABSENT.
12. Public Hearing for Newkirk Neighborhood (H-2022-0088) by Conger
Group, located at 4250 W. Franklin Rd.
A. Request: Annexation of 23.67 acres of land with a TN-R
(Traditional Neighborhood Residential) zoning district.
B. Request: Preliminary Plat consisting of 63 building lots and 8
common/other lots on 21.11 acres of land in the TN-R zoning
district.
Hoaglun: Up next public hearing for Newkirk Neighborhood and, Mr. Parsons, here will
be the staff presenting on this one. Please -- please do it quickly so we don't have
another joke from Councilman Borton.
Parsons: I like the pace of tonight's hearing. So, I appreciate the expediting of the
meeting tonight. So, last item for you tonight -- at least from a land use perspective -- is
the Newkirk Neighborhood. The applicant is here this evening to discuss annexation
and a preliminary plat. The subject property consists of 21.06 acres of land, zoned RUT
in Ada county and is located at 4250 West Franklin Road and you can see the -- the
future land use map here, the zoning map and the aerial. One thing to note about this
particular project is it's -- it's actually the last piece of the puzzle to connect to get a
collective road built in this section or at least north of Franklin in this area and that's
important, because the Ten Mile Specific Area Plan calls for that roadway and it's part of
our master street map that we coordinate with ACHD on and so the applicant is
proposing to construct that roadway with phase one of the development. Also mention
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 10 of 47
to you, as you can see here on the future land use map, that it is currently designated
as medium high density residential on our FLUM. In the Ten Mile Interchange Specific
Area Plan we encourage -- or anticipate an overall target density of 12 dwelling units to
the acre, with a density range of eight to 15 dwelling units to the acre and that -- that's
important to tonight's context, because of what we are going to be talking about, design
versus the -- the open space and target density that we need in this particular area.
The project before you this evening comes in at approximately 13 dwellings to the acre,
which is consistent with -- with the plan. Also what comes along with this plan is
specific design elements that need to be incorporated as part of the development and
with this particular request I thought it was prudent for staff to share with you some
context on how zoning relates to the Comprehensive Plan. So, as you all know the
Comprehensive Plan is a guide for development. In the code are the standards that we
use to make sure that a plan meets that vision. So, what we do is -- is when an
applicant comes in for this specific -- this area of Meridian or area of the city, we look at
the designation of the Comprehensive Plan, we go to that document and we direct the
applicant to the graphic on the left-hand side that you see here. So, you can see there
is an MHDR and, then, all of those green dots represent the design elements that
should be part of a project. Now, keep in mind a comp plan is not necessarily parcel
specific like you have for a zoning ordinance. So, that entire area is primarily a medium
high density residential, but when you look at this one piece it could have some
elements of that, but not necessarily all of those elements. So, staff, we have to take
that into context so when we do our review of a project. To break it down in simpler
terms is the graphic in the middle and that shows you what we are looking for. So, we
want attached product, moderate setbacks, typical one to three story heights in
elevation and, then, the -- the primary design feature is front porches, no front loaded
garages and predominantly alley loaded product. And, then, there is some graphs that
coincide to show you what -- how to meet that vision. Now, when you go to the graphic
on the right we have what we call the traditional neighborhood residential zoning district
standards and that's what we use to implement what the plan wants and so what I
wanted to do -- highlight for the Council this evening is, one, the TN-R zone requires a
medium -- or a minimum net density of six. So, we have the comp line that goes off of
the gross, but a zone that wants net, which we are good here on this particular project.
Both the comp plan and the TN-R zone require a mix of housing products. This
particular project has -- has three different product types -- residential project types and
this only requires two. So, therefore, the applicant is providing one above meeting the
requirements of not only the comp plan, but also the TN-R zoning district. And, then,
the other bullet point to take into consideration is -- and what we will -- we will talk about
a little bit this evening is the street access design of some of the units. You can see
here that the TN-R zone does contemplate that the perimeter of a development will
have street facing garages and that's what the applicant has designed here in order to
comply with the zoning code, not necessarily the guideline or the design elements in the
plan. That is something that we -- we discussed at the Planning and Zoning
Commission hearing at great length in trying to let the -- help educate the Commission
on how the -- the comp plan works in conjunction with the zoning ordinance and that's,
essentially, led to the Commission's recommendation of not requiring front porches and
stepping back the garages or individual garage doors for all of the units -- all of the
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 11 of 47
single family units and I will get into that more in my presentation. So, the applicant is
here -- so, any questions on that before I move on to the rest of -- I know there is a lot to
digest there, but I thought for context it was important to share with -- with the Council
as we transition through this project, because there is a lot here. There is a lot to -- to
consider and a lot of things that we want to make sure we get right here.
Hoaglun: Thank you, Bill. I want to make note that Council Woman Perreault has
joined us by phone here at 6.18 this evening. So, she's been on listening to your
presentation. So, are there any questions at this point?
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Since you asked, Bill, page six of the staff report highlights what you are talking
about right now and the -- the difference between sort of the -- the floor requirement
with the zoning in the TN-R and what the comp plan might want, but the staff report
reads like there is still some unresolved -- or possibly some unresolved desire to have
more of the comp plan components found in this development, speaking to the front
porch and more alley loaded and it references the number of units, which really don't
get close to what the comp plan is wanting to have happen. So, even if it's not a
requirement it was still a desire to try and encourage it. So, I read that to mean like
there might be some more discussion necessary to nudge it closer towards what the
comp plan would like to see, even though the TN-R doesn't require it.
Hoaglun: Mr. Parsons.
Parson: Yeah. Mr. President, Council Member Borton, I think that's on the table tonight
for sure and -- and as I get through my presentation a little bit more I will share some of
that with you as well and -- and go into where we landed in some of the discussions we
had. So, we could -- at least I can make you aware of what -- what -- how we have got
to where we are tonight. But, you are right, originally staff was pushing for more of
those -- those elements, but as we transitioned and went to the Commission,
Commission felt what was -- the way it was designed met the intent of the
Comprehensive Plan given the TN-R standards. With that, going to your original
question, I think there are some design elements that we need to work on with the
applicant. Mixture of more materials on the buildings. Some stone. I mean -- so, that's
why you see some of that context that, yeah, we still need to work on those details and
the applicant did acknowledge that and they are going to go through that design review
process with staff and we will add some more architectural embellishments as we go
through that staff level approval.
Hoaglun: Any other questions, Council, at this point? All right. Bill, go ahead.
Parsons: Perfect. So, the -- the applicant is requesting annexation of 23.67 acres of
land with the TN-R zoning district as I mentioned and a preliminary plat consisting of 63
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 12 of 47
building lots and eight common lots on 21.06 acres of land. The proposed development
incorporates 44 single family attached homes, which are along -- primarily along the
perimeter and, then, this internal lot here and, then, there is also 18 twnhome lots,
which are accessed by an ally central to the development and, then, the large 10.44
acre parcel is the 216 multi-family apartments, with the overall density of, again, 13.32
units, which is consistent with the plan. If you look in the aerial here you will see there
are some -- an existing residence and some outbuildings. They will be removed upon
development of the subject property. Lot sizes for the -- for this development range
from 2,090 square feet upwards to 4,257 square feet, with an average lot size of 2,790
and that goes back to some of the design elements that -- because the narrow -- the
lots are so narrow in order to achieve the density desired in the plan it's tough to make
some of those design concepts work and that's what was discussed at length at
Planning and Zoning Commission. Also mention to you that the applicant is phasing
their proposed development. So, all of the single family lots, including the collector
street, will be phase one. The multi-family portion of the development is phase two.
Access to this development is provided from San Marco Way, which is stubbed along
the -- the west boundary of the site -- or, excuse me, the east boundary of the site, west
boundary of the adjacent subdivision and that will be extended and stubbed to the
property to the west. At the Planning and Zoning Commission we did have a -- quite a
robust discussion around the extension of these roadways. Prior to the Commission
hearing we did meet with ACHD staff and the applicant to talk about the extension of
Zimmerman Lane and that's that sliver that you see here that runs north and south and
connects to Fairview -- excuse me. Fairview. Franklin. Franklin Road. And after
discussions with the applicant and ACHD, the applicant was asked by ACHD staff to
provide additional information as part of their review to analyze whether or not
Zimmerman Lane wasn't necessary to serve this development. Based on that
information that was provided by the applicant ACHD felt that this road did not need to
be extended and that access to the adjacent subdivisions could be accomplished by
extending the three stub streets in the Ascent Townhome Subdivision that you see in
the graphic in the lower right-hand corner. So, this roadway here and this roadway here
will be -- the applicant will dedicate additional right of way for future extension and there
is West Ski Hill Street that will be extended and tie into the collector roadway as part of
phase one to provide that secondary access to the development. So, I just wanted to
make it clear to you that that was the case. As part of that -- after the Planning and
Zoning Commission the applicant and staff sat down, because what I didn't want to
have happen was leave this sliver of land left out -- or how are we going to address who
is to own and maintain an access to Zimmerman Lane when the applicant's willing to
deed that to the adjacent property owners, because it is no longer necessary to serve
their development and so the applicant did propose some -- some DA language. I left
that as an outstanding issue for you to take under consideration this evening. But you
can see here I have marked up on the graphic date the applicant wants to modify their
annexation boundary and they have discussed dedication of this property to the
adjacent property owners to acquire that and so they are working on that, but they want
latitude for that to occur at the time of final plat or prior to signature on the final plat and
not hold up this project this evening. So, staff anticipates the applicant submitting
revised annexation boundary and a preliminary plat with that portion of the property
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 13 of 47
removed to allow that to occur and allow those county residents to continue to own the
land inside the county. It's tough to mix city zoned property with county zoned property.
So, it's easier to try to carve that out and allow that to happen through the county's
process and not the city's process. That's the easier way to state it. Again, the
applicant has discussed that with me this afternoon and have -- is close to reaching
agreement with those property owners. So, at least indications are they want to acquire
the additional property and I do have an exhibit in the presentation to show you how that
will occur. Also mention to you that some of the -- four of the lots will take access from
a common driveway up in that northwest corner. As you are aware, only three units can
take access from a common drive when it's on -- when they are all on one side of that
common driveway. The applicant will be seeking alternative compliance to allow up to
four units and that will be submitted at the time of final plat. So, again, as I alluded to
that previous discussion, here is how the applicant is proposing to divvy up that sliver of
Zimmerman Lane, if you choose to go that route. So, you can see one -- there is
actually two property owners that will get that -- will benefit. So, this green parcel here
and, then, this blue parcel here is central in the center of two other additional properties
will be the benefactors of that 50 foot sliver. And, then, you can see the additional right
of way dedication that will be required by the applicant and that is addressed in the DA
provision that's -- that will be shared with you tonight. The other part -- the other ACHD
Commission that I want to make you aware of -- the location of this stub street here in
this general location. So, when the Alamar Subdivision was annexed into the city,
which is this TN-R property here, the applicant -- that DA required this applicant and
that applicant to work together on the alignment of -- extension of this road or this stub
street. The applicant for the Alamar Subdivision has received final plat approval already
and you can see in ACHD's graphic here that they -- they show a general location of
that roadway and the applicant -- so, ACHD has actually told the -- informed the
applicant through the conditions of approval that this stub street is not approved in this
location and that they actually need to shift it over to the east to align with this location
in red. So, there will be an offset of intersections here, but, again, that will -- will be
approved -- that has been approved by ACHD in their conditions of approval and we just
did receive the final ACHD staff report this afternoon with the updated conditions that
coincide with the graphic that you see here. So, in this particular -- here is the
landscape plan and -- and the open space exhibit for you. You can see here that the
applicant has modified the landscape plan -- at least the rendering to show you that that
road will be extended from Ascent Townhomes per ACHD's condition. And you can see
this will be -- again, it's the intent of the applicant to remove this portion and deed that to
the adjacent county residents. I wanted to make mention to you -- again, as I
mentioned to you, there is two phases to this. Phase one and phase two. So, phase
one will have approximately 35 percent open space and that includes all of the linear
open space along the south boundary. So, all of this will be built with phase one and,
then, actually, the multi-family development is independent and will be providing 24
percent open space. So, we have a unique situation here where we have a comp plan
that wants density and an ordinance that wants 15 percent plus open space and when
you mix those two sometimes it's hard to get some of those traditional neighborhood
concepts envisioned by the plan and that's -- again, that's why these lots are narrower
than what you can see. So, it's hard to make some of those design concepts work.
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 14 of 47
And, then, here are the -- the proposed open space. I -- I have highlighted them in the
hearing outline for you this evening, but you can see here based on staff analysis of the
qualified open space and site amenities, the applicant is exceeding the UDC -- far in
excess of the UDC standards, so have to actually commend the applicant for doing that.
The other piece of this puzzle that you should be aware of is that the Kennedy Lateral
does bisect the property here in the northeast corner of the -- of the property and it's
owned by Nampa-Meridian. By -- by this canal bisecting the property there is an odd
triangular piece of property that's located in this corner that the applicant is platting with
this property in order to deed that to Nampa-Meridian, so that they can allow that
exchange to happen and allow them to maintain their facility. I would also mention to
you that the applicant is -- is going to leave the Kennedy Lateral open, like the adjacent
subdivision, but staff has recommended that the applicant provide a wrought iron fence
along the canal there to -- along the lateral to restrict access by the residents. So, I just
wanted to make you aware of that as well. In your motion tonight that we will be asking
you to -- for that waiver to leave that open. Again, it's -- it's part of a mixed-use or
integrated project. We want to make sure there is adequate pedestrian connectivity
that's part of the traditional neighborhood design concepts that we wanted -- that we
require as part of the submittal. The applicant is demonstrating that for you as well this
evening. And, then, here are the conceptual elevations that the applicant is proposing
for the single family attached, the three unit townhomes, and, then, also the multi-family.
And so going back to your original question that you asked, Councilman Borton, was --
you can see here some more work needs to be done on the front of these elevations to
get some more of those durable materials on these elevations and, again, the applicant
understands through that design review process that they will be required to do more
stone on the building, more variation of materials. Add some decorative corbels. I
mean that's the trade off that we are trying to -- to work with them on here. Let's try to
get as close as we can to the plan. Again, in my earliest part of my presentation is this
is a larger -- a smaller piece of a larger medium high density residential designation
and so we are trying to get them as close to compliance with the comp plan as we can
and I think with some additional design elements we can get there. Now, going back to
the -- the discussion at the -- the Commission, they did recommend approval. Hethe
Clark did testify in favor of the project. There were no neighbors that testified on the
application. But, really, the -- the Commission really spent a lot of time discussing
incorporating more alley loaded townhome lots in the development. Spent time about
the architectural style of the homes. You know, the design standards versus what the
TN-R requirements wanted and, then, extension of Zimmerman Lane. They also
modified DA provision, so the Commission did not require some of those design
elements as part of the elevations that you have this evening. Specifically regarding the
-- the 30 percent of the front porches, stepping the garages back 20 feet and, then,
having individual garage doors for each of the front loaded product type and, then, as I
mentioned to you, staff did modify several conditions of approval and some DA
provisions based on the requirements of ACHD. Originally ACHD, again, was requiring
an extension of Zimmerman Lane until they got that additional information from the
applicant, which necessitated a revision to the staff -- their staff report and changes to
our conditions of approval as well. So, really, a couple of outstanding issues for you
tonight. One is whether or not you want to support the annexation with the removal of
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 15 of 47
that sliver, changing the boundary not only of the plat, but also the -- the annexation
boundary and, then, adding that DA provision that I have referenced on the hearing
outline and, then, a waiver to leave the -- the canal open. Now, just to elaborate a little
bit more on the Commission's discussion. It really stemmed around this particular block
here, if you can see my cursor. Commission was -- I think Commission understood
along the perimeter that we may not get one hundred percent compliance with the
design concepts, but they had referenced -- or asked the applicant why this could not
have more alley loaded or why this could not be oriented differently to provide more
alley load or more of those townhome concepts. That's really where that discussion
stemmed and we -- we talked about it and we talked about rotating them and having
townhomes fronting on this open space and, then, having the -- the alleyway go east-
west versus north-south. But, ultimately, the Commission felt with the amount of
amenities and open space and the desired density that we were trying to -- trying to
achieve and looking at the entire context of the area, they felt that what the applicant
was proposing met the spirit of the comp plan and met the requirements of the TN-R
zoning district. So, with that I will go ahead and conclude my presentation and, then,
just stand for any questions you may have.
Hoaglun: Thank you, Bill. Online we have some questions from Council Woman
Perreault. So, Council Woman Perreault, if -- go ahead and unmute and you don't -- no
-- no need to go through the chair, just go ahead and ask your questions. I know it's a
little more difficult when you are just on phone.
Perreault: Hello?
Hoaglun: There you go. We hear you.
Parsons: We hear you now.
Perrault: Hi, there. Sorry. The -- the phone system was giving me a recording while
you were speaking, Council President, so I didn't hear the last couple sentences that
you said.
Hoaglun: Council Woman Perreault, I just said go ahead, ask your questions and no
need to go through the chair. I know it's a little difficult with that being on phone. So,
you can just ask the staff questions as -- and have that dialogue.
Perreault: Great. Thank you. I appreciate that. So -- and, Bill, I wanted you to
specifically go through what are the -- the Ten Mile Plan requirements on this property
that wouldn't be there if it was in a different location and -- and where I'm going with that
is that it seems to me like every other apartment or multi-family project that's there along
Franklin has the denser residential toward the front of the project and, then, the less
dense towards the back, but this isn't exactly set up that way. So, I -- I have -- have
some of those similar concerns that the Commission had in terms of, you know, really
kind of wanting some more alley loaded townhomes and maybe a little bit less of the
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 16 of 47
apartment style, because there is already so much of that on that corridor as it is. So, if
you could speak to that that would be helpful.
Parsons: Council President, Council, Council Woman Perreault, I think I'm -- if I'm
understanding your question correctly, I think you want -- you want me to speak more to
the transition between the multi-family and the single family. Am I understanding the
question correctly?
Perreault: Well, no. I apologize. So, is it -- is it constraints of the property itself that
they wouldn't put the -- the three story buildings on the front towards the collector and,
then, have -- like on the -- on the south side and, then, have the -- the attached units all
along the back, instead of splitting it down the middle north and south and having one
on the east and one on the west?
Parsons: Yeah. Council Woman Perreault, there -- there is no requirement to do that. I
think what the applicant has done here is -- the parcel to the east is high density
residential, believe it or not, sandwiched in between some medium high density
residential and so I think -- and as part of their design here they are trying to transition
from that more dense project and including this and, then, transition. So, they are trying
to have density next to density and they are trying to have the single family next to less
dense or the Aviation Subdivision, which is to the west, which has the less density. So,
rather than doing that north-south transitioning that you are speaking to or having the
three story fronting on the collector, they are trying to blend in with the two adjacent
subdivisions that are either constructed or approved on the west and east of them.
Perreault: Okay. That makes more sense. I don't know if you are aware of some of the
drawings in the packet are actually flipped, so it looks like -- so, what you are showing
on the screen here makes a lot more sense. Some of the drawings were turned and so
it looked like it was actually set up differently than what I'm seeing on the current
screen. One more question. So, the properties to the east, they are not nearly as close
to the residential that sits north of the railroad tracks and is that because of the -- the
waterway that runs through there? Is that why these look like they are going to sit so
much closer than -- just distance wise from the residential across from the railroad
track?
Parsons: So, Council Woman Perreault, just a follow-up question on that. Are you
speaking to Entrada Farms directly to the east or are you speaking to Silver Oaks
farther to the east? There is a couple different projects going on and under construction
in the area. So, is it west or east?
Perreault: East.
Parsons: Yeah. So, Entrada --
Perreault: It's really similar --
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 17 of 47
Parsons: Entrada Farms does have the canal that runs there, which is on the east,
which requires that to be stepped back a little bit more because of the irrigation
easement.
Perreault: Okay. That's helpful. I -- I have often seen people walking along the tracks.
Pretty common. There is also a lot of wildlife back there. So, I was just kind of -- I'm
just kind of trying to understand sort of the impact that we will have in general to that --
you know, that whole area, because as you said, this will sort of be the last piece of a
really unique corridor in terms of how it's developed out and the different smaller parcels
and the -- the long, you know, skinny five acre parcels and the school -- it's just a really
unique corridor and I -- I don't know that there is going to be any way for us to make --
you know, for us to encourage it to be more uniform than it is. But I appreciate all the
time that staff has spent with the applicants attempting to make it as workable as
possible.
Hoaglun: Any other questions, Council Woman Perreault, right now?
Perreault: No. No. Thank you very much.
Hoaglun: Okay. Council, other questions for staff at this time? If not, the applicant
come forward and -- you know the drill, Hethe. State your name and address for the
record.
Clark: Thank you, Council President. Hethe Clark. 251 East Front Street in Boise
representing the applicant. Appreciated Bill's presentation and, you know, I may try to
abbreviate portions of mine, because I think that Bill's done a really good job with this
and so let me get that -- it's the battle of the mics.
Hoaglun: And as you start, Hethe, I like what you did with the Planning and Zoning is
Ten Mile Plan works, instead of saying the long name or --
Clark: Yes.
Hoaglun: -- acronym -- initials, so Ten Mile Plan we get it.
Clark: Council President, you killed my joke, though. I had a whole thing worked with
that.
Hoaglun: I'm sorry.
Clark: No. No problem. No. I -- and I will refer to it as the Ten Mile Plan. I -- I -- I
played with TMISAP and could not say that enough times to make it roll off the tongue.
So, again, this is property that's just north of Franklin, east of Black Cat. It's in the Ten
Mile Plan. It is an area that is, you know, a priority growth area for the city and it is a --
an area that has a medium high density designation, which is important to everything
that we are talking about today and the only words I might say more than Ten Mile Plan
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 18 of 47
is medium high density during this presentation. Let's see here. There we go. And I
think that this might help with some of the questions that Council Member Perreault had
just a moment ago, but I think it's really important to talk about some of the constraints
that go along with this property. In-fill is never easy and this is as in-fill as in-fill gets and
-- but we did have some unique challenges. So, one is it's a triangular site and
designing to a triangular site is really never easy. That's complicated by the fact that we
have -- this area is going to include the mid mile collector. So, you can see that those
points were already set for us down here and about right here. So, that takes up a good
portion of the southern area of the property. We are constrained on the north by the
railroad tracks and the Kennedy Lateral and, you know, among other things what that
means is that our access has to come from that mid mile collector. So, we are coming
in from the east and the west and we are coming in through apartments that are on our
east, which is the transition piece that Bill mentioned a second ago, transitioning out to
-- to a lesser dense product on the west. And, then, in addition, just to add something
else to it, there is some grading and slope challenges. There is a significant amount of
fall as you go from north to south, which affects that layout. So, what -- what that
means is is that we have portions of the site that are really taken up by the mid mile
collector and as we try to meet some of these other goals that it reduces the area that
we have to -- to operate in and that goes to some of the points that Bill mentioned
before. So, with regard to the Comprehensive Plan, this will be the second time I say
medium high density residential. The target density being 12 units per acre and -- but I
do want to talk about the -- that a bit in terms of the way it's described in the Ten Mile
Plan. Of course it's a planning -- comprehensive planning document. So, what that
means is that it's not zoning code. It establishes the -- the goals that we need to be
shooting for, but it's -- it's policy, it's guidance, and I think this is a really good example
of -- of how you try to -- to make as many of those policies work in a project, while
recognizing the -- the -- the realities of the site. So, this is the discussion that you can
see under the medium high density residential component. The target density being 12
dwelling units per acre, but I also think it's important to point out that it -- it looks for a
variety of different housing types in the medium high density area. So, you have row
houses, townhomes, condominiums, apartment buildings and complexes. That's what
we are trying to shoot for in the medium high area. So, with that in mind we have
proposed a TN-R zone on 21 acres. Bill mentioned all of the -- the unit counts. We do
have 35 percent open space and we do have a one acre park on the west side. As
Council Member Cavener likes to see, it's centrally located. It has, you know,
playground, swings, climbing dome, shade structures, high quality landscaping. You
guys know this applicant, you know that they do a really great job with the parks. Again,
35 open space -- percent open space, but we are still hitting the -- the density target.
And, again, 35 percent open space. This is a drawing that Bill showed. Here we go.
Okay. So, Bill showed you some of the housing examples. We do understand that
those are going to go through design review. These are the two unit structures that are
largely located on the -- on the outer ring of the project. The colors and designs would
be varied through the design review process. We also have the alley loaded
townhomes that you can see here and just following up a little bit on Bill's point, just to
kind of emphasize where things are located, we have on the outer ring the garage
loaded and, then, also in this area in the green and, then, on the pink we have the area
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 19 of 47
that's the alley loaded. And, then, this is what the multi-family structures will look like.
So, with that I would state that we are in agreement with the conditions of the staff
report. We worked very hard with Bill to try to make sure all of these items were
addressed. The one item that Bill mentioned that was something that we could discuss
tonight would be the Zimmerman Lane treatment. As Bill mentioned, ACHD does not
want Zimmerman Lane to connect and so the question became what do we do with it?
And so we have proposed this condition that recognizes the ACHD requirements for
stubs at Atomic Street and Chair Lift. So, we would be stubbing that property, you
know, making sure that ACHD has those accesses and, then, from there we would
convey that the -- the rest of -- the remainder of those properties out in the manner that
Bill showed you before and just to facilitate that, because those properties are all in the
county, you know, from our perspective it made sense to remove this from the
annexation legal description, so you don't have slivers of county versus slivers of city
property that are, then, mixed within those parcels as -- as we deed that out. So, that's
the language that we have proposed. I would suggest that that would be an additional
condition of approval and with that I'm happy to -- to answer questions that the Council
might have.
Hoaglun: Council, any questions for the applicant?
Overton: Council President?
Hoaglun: Yes. Councilman Overton.
Overton: Hethe, staff, I don't know which one of you might want to address this. Just a
question when it comes to the second parcel next to the current one that's ally loaded.
The decision was made not to make that section alley loaded. What difference does
that make being or not being alley loaded for parking availability within and also are the
roadway dimensions the same around the ones that are alley loaded or not alley
loaded? Not the alley, but the -- the actual roadways that run around it, are they the
same dimension throughout?
Clark: Bill, do you want that one?
Hoaglun: Mr. Parsons.
Parsons: I'm happy to take that one, Mr. President, Council -- Councilman Overton.
So, the roads are -- this applicant typically has two different street sections they like to
use per ACHD standards, so there will be some narrow roads and some wider roads
and they did provide a parking exhibit as part of their overall plan, but as far as your
parking standards, this will park pretty much the same. I mean they -- they are going to
be required to comply with code, have the four parking stalls, the -- the -- the driveways
in front of them. But to your point they will be limited on some of those streets just
because there is parking allowed on one side because of the -- the template they are
going to use. But also the fact that the lots are only 27 feet wide and the driveways are
going to be 20, so just by virtue of that that will dictate how some of this will be parked
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 20 of 47
and if -- again, if you have an alley load product and typically you can front -- park
around the entire street, because you have all -- you have no garage fronting, it's all off
the alley parking. So, you -- technically you can park around the whole block and so
that's what the applicant did demonstrate in their application submittal when they made
the original application and that is in the staff report. I just eliminated the slide, because
I didn't know if you guys wanted to talk about parking tonight. But the applicant will be
required to comply with all parking regulations.
Hoaglun: Council, anymore questions for the applicant?
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Hethe, back to the condition that you had a couple of slides regarding
Zimmerman Lane. I recall Bill saying that some additional part of a condition would be
that this dedication -- the DA would state it has to occur before the final plat. I don't
know if that's referenced here. Is that some -- an element to add to a proposed
condition to ensure there is a deadline on it or --
Clark: Council President, Council Member Borton, we don't have an issue with that.
The way I had originally drafted was -- drafted it was contemplating that if we remove it
from the annexation legal, then, it's not really anything that -- that we need to worry
about. But Bill made a good point that, you know, the city wants to make sure that that
is conveyed that there is somebody that has control over it and so making that a
requirement of final flat condition is -- is not a problem for us.
Borton: Okay. Would that be just an addition to what's on the screen here?
Clark: That's how I would see it. So, you would just say --
Borton- We can figure that out.
Clark: You might just add prior to final plat at the very end. Yeah. Mr. Conger just
reminded me that there is an ACHD condition that addresses all of that as well. So, we
-- we would be aligning this with what ACHD is requiring.
Borton: Okay. Mr. Nary, is that sufficient to have it stated like that for the DA for the --
triggering that condition? Anymore specificity?
Nary: Mr. President, Members of Council, no. I mean we normally just refer back to the
ACHD conditions as a requirement in the DA. So, I think we are okay.
Borton: Thanks. Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 21 of 47
Borton: The other question was on the northwest corner, that -- just that funky
outparcel, if it's to be dedicated to Nampa-Meridian just across the lateral. Northeast.
Excuse me.
Clark: Yeah. If I can get this --
Borton- Yeah. So, it looked like that project built to the east has either parking or
something up against it, so it really -- and Nampa-Meridian is not going to do anything to
it. It -- it appears like it would just be a weed born outparcel disaster. Any opportunities
that you came up with to try and solve that, maintain it, take some -- some obligation to
try and -- I see you are going to have open vision fencing on the south side of it
protecting access to it, which makes great sense, but it really is just going to be an
Ignored eyesore, weed pit. So, now is a chance to see how we could address it. And
while you guys are talking, Bill, I don't know -- that parcel to the east, do they have it
fenced along the property line directly adjacent to that corner that, you know, makes it
even more than exaggerated or is it open vision?
Parsons: Councilman Borton, it -- they had wrought iron fencing along the canal as
well. So, that's -- so, it -- it -- it is fenced, it's just open vision to your point.
Borton: Heading -- on the property line heading directly north?
Parsons: North and -- yep.
Borton: Okay.
Parsons: North and -- and east -- or west boundary is all open. All wrought iron.
Borton: Yeah. Seems like there ought to be some way to address that.
Clark: Yeah. And Council -- Council President, Council Member Borton. So, that's
been an ongoing discussion with Nampa-Meridian. I wanted to check with Laren,
because there is some funkiness in the -- in the ownership along that as well. But it -- it
is shown within our plat. We are going to do the wrought iron. We don't want that to be
an eyesore as well. So, what we would be working on with Nampa-Meridian would be
an ongoing license to allow for at least knocking down the -- the vegetation that might
grow out there, you know, if not something more than that, so -- and we are -- we are
very sympathetic to that point and so that we -- we would work on that, you know, for no
other reason other than the -- the marketability of the product --
Borton- Sure.
Clark: -- or project, so --
Borton- Yeah. You certainly don't want it to, but time passes and things happen, so
how would that work? Would that be a -- how would that condition be described? If it's
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 22 of 47
a license that lets the -- the complex have a right to knock it down or is it more of a -- an
obligation, a commitment that it will be their affirmative duty to at the very least knock it
down or do X, Y and Z to ensure it isn't a --
Clark: Right. Well, yeah, Council Member Borton, you know, all property owners have
an obligation to maintain and knock down noxious weeds and all that sort of thing. You
know, I -- working with the irrigation districts in terms of getting rights to use their
property can sometimes be a little touchy and so I'm a little -- I'm hesitant to say, you
know, we can't move forward unless we have, you know, turf and trees and all that sort
of thing. But we would -- I mean we are happy to make a commitment to work with
Nampa-Meridian to get a license agreement in place to -- to maintain that. I just
wouldn't want to make that a condition of being able to move forward, because I just
don't know what Nampa-Meridian would -- would agree to in that location.
Borton: Okay.
Hoaglun: But -- Mr. Clark and Councilman Borton, to your point, you know, it's -- it's an
interesting parcel, because you got the Ridenbaugh -- you're not going to move that,
that's been there a long time and it's -- it's quite wide. That is a parcel that you have, so
you could maintain control by not giving it over, but at the same time the parcel to the
north is railroad property and it's whatever they want it to be. They don't maintain it.
So, it's kind of this fragment that really -- if it is a weed patch, it blends well with what's
left to the north. So, it's just an interesting type of -- type of property. But to
Councilman Borton's point, you know, because it is -- the proximity of it to those
developments, it would be nice to have at least a -- not a manicured, but a maintained
type of --
Clark: And, Council President, to your point, you know, the -- there -- there is -- there
would be -- or there will -- I'm certain that there is an easement, either statutory or
otherwise, for that area. You know, to the extent we maintain fee control over it we can
do whatever we need to out there that's not inconsistent with the easement. So, there --
as we kind of hash this out here that -- I think that there will be an ability to -- to make
sure that that looks right.
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: I think that's a great point. So, is there a reason that you would dedicate it,
other than to not have to maintain it. You could keep it and --
Clark: We will see if -- I apologize for speaking over you. No, I think that -- you know,
obviously, if it's nonfunctional property you don't necessarily want it, but Nampa-
Meridian may not accept it and there may be a reason for us to actually keep it from that
-- from that perspective for the -- the -- the landscape control.

Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Just to put a -- put that to bed, I guess. The idea that the easement -- they
have got the rights to -- to be adjacent to it for whatever they need already -- I mean if
you kept it it certainly allows you to do what you are wanting to commit to do now
anyway. It's better than license. They don't actually need fee title. Maybe you just
keep it and commit to -- you will -- or, you know, the association will maintain weed
abatement at the very least. Something like that. I mean it's pretty minor, but it's a big
deal --
Clark: Yeah.
Borton: -- unattended, so --
Clark: Council President, Council Member Borton, I just looked over at my client and
they are totally in agreement with that.
Hoaglun: Okay. I appreciate that. But we have missed those before and -- so
appreciate that. Mr. President, the last question -- and if -- if you said it I forgot it, but is
it phase one that that connection on the southeast corner that connects to the small
subdivision -- yeah. Is that going in in phase one, along with the building of the
collector?
Clark: Correct.
Borton: Okay. Okay. Great. Thank you.
Clark: Yeah. Thank you, everyone.
Parsons: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Yes. Yes. Sorry. Councilman Parsons -- how about Mr. Parsons. Got
promoted.
Parsons: Don't promote me yet. A couple ideas. I appreciate the applicant stepping up
and wanting to keep that triangular piece, but I'm wondering if -- if -- if the applicant's
open to even creating a possibility of some flexibility that work with adjacent -- one, you
own and maintain it or see if the adjacent multi-family wants to buy it and move their
fencing and maybe it's -- it may integrate better with their development, because it's
right there adjacent to it. So, if we do an either/or, at least they are not -- they are either
on the hook to take care of it or they are on the hook to dedicate it and deed it to them
and let them own and maintain it. Another -- another possible solution. Just -- just
talking out loud.
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 24 of 47
Clark: And Council President, that would work as well. I think -- I think the spirit of the
idea is to identify an outcome for that parcel that is acceptable to staff, that shows that it
will receive ongoing maintenance and won't turn into an eyesore. So, some -- maybe
something more generic than that would be appropriate.
Borton: Okay. Thank you.
Cavener: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Cavener.
Cavener: Hethe, can you walk me through how this connects, then, to Aviator. Is that
where the -- the collector eventually connects to on the -- be the west side. Correct.
Right there. Does that connect, then, to Aviator?
Clark: Yes. That's correct.
Cavener: Great. That was my only question. Thank you.
Hoaglun: Any other questions for staff-- for staff or the applicant? Okay.
Clark: Thanks, everyone.
Hoaglun: Thank you, Hethe. With that, Mr. Clerk, do we have anybody signed up to
testify?
Johnson: Mr. President, we do. Jeff Wrede.
Hoaglun: Mr. Wrede, come on up and state your name and address for the record and
we will give you three minutes.
Wrede: Well, Council, my name is Jeff Wrede. I'm at 12805 West Engelman in Boise,
Idaho. I'm the developer of the Alamar Subdivision, which is just adjacent on the west
side and also contains the one acre lot that runs on Zimmerman there. I thought
everything was pretty much nailed down, but the ACHD report just came out like an
hour ago and has changed some things also, along with this Zimmerman issue here.
Let me get my questions. So, I have a couple of questions. ACHD's report now that --
previously the developer of -- that owns Zimmerman was going to connect these roads
between Ascent and Alamar Subdivision. Now they are not, you know, pulling that out
of the plat. ACHD has stated that, you know, they are going to get it deeded to them,
but the last comment they make is those future costs to make the connections will likely
be borne by ACHD. That's this little segment between Ascent and Alamar. We are --
we already have our preliminary plat approval and our first phase final plat approval and
we are getting ready to submit coincident with Newkirk, our final plat for phase two. So,
my concern is that with likely being paid for means I'm going to end up paying for it and
so I'm a little -- have a little concern about what's really happening there, you know, so
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 25 of 47
-- you know, that kind of leaves me hanging. It may be holding the -- the burden of
connecting this road extension, even though we are developing at the same time. The
other issue may be that if that property is not deeded until the final plat is done, which
means all of the construction is done, that I can't work on that road, because I don't own
it. So, the road just sits there in limbo and can't get developed. My concern is really
just to make sure that that stub extension can be developed, you know, prior to
finalizing of Newkirk, because we want to move ahead at the same time. We are
connecting roads together and going to work together on getting these connections
made. My next question is I'm just wondering -- I was wondering who was going to get
the property, you know, of Zimmerman, if they are just going to deed it off to other
owners there. Just want to make sure that, you know, the burden of road development
doesn't become passed on to someone else, possibly, because it doesn't appear that
Planning or ACHD has looked at any plans to how do these other lots to get their roads
done. It's just kind of in limbo right now. The -- the other comment I had was ACHD's
report mentioned that if Alamar northern going road Feather Reed is not completed
when Newkirk is getting completed, that they will just provide a right-of-way and I
believe they should actually provide a road stub with utility connections as close as they
can to that property line and a road trust to get through afterwards.
Hoaglun: Mr. Wrede, thank you for that. Why don't you stay put, because, Bill, do you
want to weigh in? Do you have any -- any thoughts or -- on some of this that he -- he
brought up? I'm -- I don't know -- they are -- they are good questions. We may --
Parsons: Yeah. Mr. President, Members of the Council, that's -- originally when we got
ACHD's conditions they were going to make the applicant road trust for dedication of
that right of way. But, typically, we don't do a road trust for local streets and so that's --
that's the risk you run when you take out the sliver of property is now it's the longer part
of the plat and that's typically how right of way is conveyed. But, again, the applicant is
willing to convey that right of way and make it happen. So, whoever comes in and
needs access through that road more than likely will -- will -- may have to pay for it,
because they need to -- to make that happen. As far as the other two lots that get the
50 foot strip, the code -- the UDC -- if they were to annex in the code would require a
flag lot to have 30 feet of street frontage, which they would have. Each one of them
would have that. So, we are good on that. We are not passing a burden on to any of
those county residences. We are actually helping them to give them some access to
street frontage in that regard, because of those two roads and Ascent townhomes that
will be extended at some point in the future. So, yes, it's not ideal, we would prefer that
to be built with this, but, again, ACHD can't require offsite improvements. But, again,
this is annexation. You can have a conversation with the applicant and see how we can
mitigate some of those concerns. But right now this -- Jeff is correct, the -- the burden
will fall on ACHD to construct or potentially somebody else. I don't know if anyone from
ACHD's online to -- to ask that or not, but if ACHD said it may fall on them, it may fall on
them as well. So, it's -- it's something that, again, to take into consideration tonight.
Hoaglun: Yeah. Thank you, Bill. I don't see anybody on from ACHD. I mean if -- if
ACHD had not done away with that requirement that -- that was going to be a
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 26 of 47
connection at one time. They want it to go out, so -- which I understand. Then it would
have been a whole different scenario there. So, by them moving that, not being a public
right of way, that -- that changes that and -- and I think Mr. Wrede's right, who is going
to pay for that is -- is going to be the question down the road.
Wrede: City code and ACHD code states that a developer has to do to and through
with utilities and roads. So, for the burden just to be passed on to me, when I don't
even own the piece of property, is a problem. I'm willing to work with them to get the
road finished. It's just like say -- it's kind of putting me into a bind where I can't complete
work that needs to be done, because I don't own the property, first of all. At least at a
certain point in time. If the property was deeded, you know, at a certain point in time
where I could complete that road, which is a benefit of, you know, everybody, then, it's --
that's real -- that part of the problem is gone.
Bongiorno: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Yes.
Bongiorno: Mr. President and Council, I was just looking back through my e-mail. I
know, Jeff, you and I have been -- had e-mailed about phase two and one of the last
things that we had talked about was -- excuse me -- getting that connection over to that
sub, so you wouldn't have to put fire sprinklers in your -- in your buildings for phase two.
So, you -- you -- you still -- we need that connection somehow. Otherwise, we are
going to have to go back and revisit the sprinkler situation.
Wrede: Yes. That also. I mean I'm -- I'm hoping to be coincident developing with
Newkirk at the same time, so we don't -- you know, the road connections get done all at
the same time.
Bongiorno: Yeah, that would be best.
Wrede: That's my goal. Would it be -- well, I could talk to you offline. I don't know if -- if
there was a -- if the road was prepared at least for fire truck access would that suffice?
Bongiorno: Yeah. I think temporarily. Sorry. Mr. President and Council. I think as
long as -- I know in an e-mail you showed a CAD drawing that said to be paved. You
were talking about just getting an easement across there --
Wrede: Yeah. We were --
Bongiorno: -- which, you know, again, maybe you can work with these guys here and
get something figured out. But, yeah, if -- if it will meet the -- the requirements for, you
know, 82,000 pounds, all weather maintained, all that, that would be fine. I mean it's
just that no man's land we have to get across. But if -- you know, maybe they will be
willing to pave that little section and call it done.
Meridian City Council

Page 27 of 47
Hoaglun: Okay. Well, thank you, Jeff. Appreciate you bringing that problem to us.
That's I guess what we do, trying to solve problems. But that is one with ACHD in the
mix it is a -- it is a head scratcher now and maybe the applicant has some ideas as well.
So, Mr. Clerk, I don't see anybody online who is here to testify. Do we have anybody
else in the audience to testify? Yes. We have -- come on up. State your name and
address for the record.
Adamson: Good evening, Councilman. Ryan Adamson. 547 West Water Grove Drive
in Eagle.
Hoaglun: Okay.
Adamson: I'm the property at the end of Zimmerman Lane. 4260 West Franklin Road.
And like Jeff I have some concern over -- have some concern over just how fast all this
is happening. I just -- I haven't even had a chance to look at the ACHD report that just
came out and while I appreciate the offer to have that land annexed into me or donated
to me or however they want to give it to me --
Hoaglun: A little closer if you could. Yeah. It's -- it's one of those mics that -- yeah.
Adamson: I guess I'm just a little tall.
Hoaglun: You can try the other one that's closer to the -- there you go.
Adamson: Okay.
Hoaglun: Try that one.
Adamson: So, anyway, I appreciate the offer to have that land annexed in. I just don't
understand what that obligation comes with that and what responsibility comes with that
and, you know, I just want to make sure that we have good access to the property. It's
a rental property for me and my family lives there. So, I want to make sure that they
have good access in and out. And, like I said, I just want to raise that there is concern
that by abdicating that Zimmerman Lane, what does that mean? You know, half of it's
to me and half of it's to somebody else? I don't know what that -- what that means, so --
Hoaglun: Good. Thank you. Appreciate the questions. We will hear from the applicant
what they think that means and we can have further discussion about that, so --
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Yes, Councilman Borton.
Borton: Have you guys -- have you guys talked yet at all about this stuff and Jeff as well
and kind of --
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 28 of 47
Adamson: Yeah. I just talked with Laren this afternoon.
Borton: Oh. Before today, though, have you guys talked?
Adamson: No. That's why I say it's happening really fast. I don't have all this
information and I -- so, I don't know what I don't know. Fair question.
Borton: Okay.
Hoaglun: I -- I think the late arrival of the ACHD decision that kind of throws things in a
little bit of a spin here, so -- everyone's trying to understand what that means, so --
Adamson: All I have heard along the -- over the past couple of years while this is going
to happen was that that was going to -- that road was going to get paved and
developed. So, today was the first day that I heard it's not.
Hoaglun: Thank you, Ryan. Anybody else in the audience? Not seeing anyone, would
the applicant like to close this out with all the answers.
Clark: Council President, Hethe Clark. 251 East Front Street in Boise. So, I -- I think,
you know, what I heard was basically two different categories of questions, both kind of
focused on Zimmerman. So, I will start with the last first. So, Zimmerman Lane
currently is an easement. It's a -- it's a private lane that those folks have been using for
quite some time to get out to Franklin. So, when we talk about not continuing with
Zimmerman at -- what we are talking about is not turning it into a public street. The --
the existing private access rights pursuant to the easement will be unaffected and so if
we -- as we convey that part -- that property to those adjacent property owners, they
would still have all of their private access rights that with -- that would be unaffected.
So, folks would still be able to use Zimmerman in the same way that they have used it
today.
Hoaglun: Hethe, real quick question.
Clark: Uh-huh.
Hoaglun: However, is ACHD saying they cannot access Franklin, though, from
Zimmerman, they will have to go south once that collector is created; is that correct?
Clark: No. What is -- I know ACHD would like to limit the access rights onto Franklin.
That's their general approach. There -- when they are talking about the temporary
access -- and Bill might be able to pull that up. Let's see. They are talking about -- Bill,
can you run that mouse for me a little bit to point out the temporary. Oh, it disappeared
on you. So, that -- what ACHD has done and this kind of goes to Mr. Wrede's
comments -- is they have created a -- kind of a difficult situation in that there is
temporary access from the -- is it Ascent? Right. And -- yeah. So, this access here --
thank you, Bill -- has to go away eventually. That's the temporary access and that --
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 29 of 47
that was conditioned as part of ACHD's official actions. I know that eventually ACHD
would like to see any other access on Franklin go away, but they are not talking about
killing the access at the Zimmerman private lane at this time. With regard to Mr.
Wrede's comments, these are, as I mentioned, kind of this -- these issues are all kind of
a function of the -- of ACHD having created that temporary access. Ultimately ACHD
wants to push all of the traffic up to our mid mile collector. They don't want folks going
down through Franklin, they want them up there and, then, spreading out and -- and
because the -- our traffic study showed that Zimmerman was not warranted, because
Zimmerman is not on the master street map, ACHD doesn't want Zimmerman to
function like a de facto collector, which is exactly what would happen. Folks would
shoot out and come down that Zimmerman Lane in order to avoid some of these other
issues that you would have. It would create a situation that's just not ideal for anyone.
So, ACHD's asked us to disable Zimmerman as it goes south -- you know, we are going
to give those connection points to ACHD to allow for those projects to, then, flow north,
not south. And so ultimately what needs to happen is for us to get that mid mile
collector constructed and, then, that would be what would solve the overall problem
down there. Now, ACHD -- I think that their decision was actually pretty detailed. You
know, they recognized that this is not a to and through situation. If Zimmerman Lane is
not required to be constructed, then, what we are talking about are off-site
improvements and so ACHD has asked us to dedicate those stubs, which we will, so
that property will be available to be worked on, but it is not something that is an on-site
improvement, it's not something that's required by the development. So, ACHD has
limited our obligation to just the dedication of that right of way and that will come with
our final plat. You know, that's kind of the standard timing for that sort of -- of
requirement. So, with that, if there are any other questions that I could try to answer,
with that I'm happy to.
Hoaglun: Hethe, while you are up here I want to ask Deputy Chief Bongiorno, then, is --
is Zimmerman going to be a secondary fire access for the department? Would that
remain open and -- it sounds like it's going to be an access point for the property owners
for those four --
Bongiorno: Yeah. We are going to need it as is until the rest of it develops.
Hoaglun: Okay.
Bongiorno: Sorry, Mr. President. I was just looking at the drawing that Jeff had sent me
and -- and -- and what Hethe is saying is a hundred percent correct. The -- the way --
and -- and that's why this whole area was kind of a -- a cluster when -- when it was all
being developed, because we had Aviator that went nowhere. You have the other road
coming this way that goes nowhere. And, then, you have all these people that are
trying to develop and we were missing that connection and that's where Laren and
these guys come in and they are -- they are helping us out is what they are actually
doing. So, Jeff's project actually has an access to Franklin, but the grand scheme of
things is it flips, like Hethe was saying, to take access from Aviator or whatever it's
going to be called and, then, that gets cul-de-sac'd at the bottom. Mr. Schultz's project,
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 30 of 47
same thing. He has an access -- or he had it -- it's still there. He has got an access out
that Bill is pointing to to Franklin and the same thing, when these guys are nice enough
to add that section coming off the corner there and -- what did you call it? Ski -- Ski
something? Ski Jump or whatever. Where it ties into the road that they are going to
build, then, that goes away also. Zimmerman eventually will go away, but for us we are
going to have to utilize it as an access, so we could access, you know, the gentleman
that lives in the back, his property and stuff, until the rest of it develops. So, it's -- it's --
it's kind of a -- we are all working together and that's kind of what we -- you know, we
are working with -- with Jim and Laren and saying, look, you guys are kind of like the
main puzzle piece that's going to help bring this all together. So, it's -- it's -- this has to
happen, this has to happen. There is just a lot of puzzle pieces and a lot of players,
unfortunately. So, yes, the -- once their road is built, then, everything is going to flip. As
far as Zimmerman goes it's going to stay until that area is developed and, then, I would
imagine it's going to get blocked off as well.
Hoaglun: Okay. Thank you for that, deputy chief. Because even though -- you know,
Ryan may be in the county and he may be in the county for as long as he wants, we
don't force annexation on anybody, but our agreement with the Meridian Rural Fire
District is we will cover -- we will take care of them if there is an emergency there. So,
we need that access to make sure that -- that still works, so -- yeah.
Clark: Council President, the yard, we -- we can't do anything to interfere with those
easement rights. So, that -- that will remain and I think Deputy Chief Bongiorno's point
is an important one. You know, this project really solves a lot of issues for the area,
because it finally provide -- provides that final piece to flip the traffic where it needs to
get, you know. So, I -- I think it's important to keep that in mind as we are looking at that
and, then, we are looking at the -- the Ten Mile Plan and the density targets and the fact
that we are able to hit that even while providing the Ten Mile -- the -- the new collector
and all the open space that goes along with that, because there is a lot that ends up
being part of that and, you know, again, we are providing a variety of housing types in a
manner that -- that the medium high density designation contemplates. So, a lot all at
once.
Hoaglun: Okay. Council Woman Perreault, I think you have a question for Hethe.
Council Woman Perreault? Can't hear you if you are talking.
Perreault: I'm here.
Hoaglun: There you go. We hear you.
Perreault: Thanks. Okay. It takes a second to switch over. So, this -- this question is
just a curiosity question. I have yet to see any multi-story buildings called Chalets.
That's just suburban residential housing. So, I'm just curious why use that terminology?
I mean I typically think of a chalet as something that's in a ski resort. Is there something
specific to the design that causes you to name it that way or --
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 31 of 47
Clark: Council President, Council Member Perreault. Sorry. No, we -- there -- there is
nothing -- I would call it technical in use of that name. It's -- it's more of a marketing --
marketing usage.
Perreault: Okay. All right. That -- it's just -- just kind of a silly question. I just hadn't
seen that before and was curious if that -- that might be something I see more of in the
future or if you were actually describing in a way that should have been representative
of something. So thank you.
Clark: I -- I would just say that we are super influential, so maybe you will see it used by
others in the -- in the future, but --
Perreault: I will watch for it.
Clark: Okay. Thank you.
Hoaglun: Council, any other questions for Mr. Clark? Okay.
Clark: Thanks, everyone.
Hoaglun: Great. Thank you. Well, Council, want to keep the public hearing open and
continue the dialogue just in case.
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Yes to your question. This just got a little off the rails a little bit with regards to
the roadway and -- and for whatever reason folks not talking and as have -- in relation to
having a staff report coming out late from ACHD and it just seems like there is a lot of
present unknowns about some sequence of events and I don't have an answer to it, but
it seemed more clear and, then, got muddier as we proceed and some of the questions
that pop up are -- this -- the Zimmerman Road annexation -- or I guess conveyance to
somebody else -- removing it from this annexation. Some of the discussion it sounds
like on stub streets and whether or not they should be funded or put in, they become an
offsite improvement in part because Zimmerman Road roadway is to be dedicated to
someone else, which now makes it an off-site improvement, which might otherwise be
an on-site improvement. Perhaps. Another question is the timing of it. The dedication
-- we talked about the final plat. Is there anything magical of why it wouldn't be
dedicated earlier if its dedication has some impact to slow up someone else's adjacent
development? I don't know if there is any purposeful reason to not do it sooner. So, I'm
just thinking out loud of some of the things that puzzle me. I thought the -- a couple
other issues might have been stickier, but just want to make sure we get this right and
with the annexation and the DA every specific condition is listed to trigger everything for
this roadway and the adjacent property owners. I don't know if I have all those answers,
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 32 of 47
but those are some of the questions. I don't know if Bill wants to tackle them. The
applicant might clarify where I'm seeing it sideways.
Parsons: Mr. President, Members of the Council, I can only share with you staff's
experience in these situations and -- and your experience in dealing with these and
these are the conversations that the applicant and -- and I have had. It's -- it's -- it's all
about timing and time is money these days as you know. But we -- we have come
across -- you know, I have been with the city almost 16 years and we have come across
this a handful of times and typically what we have done is -- we have not approved the
annexation or the findings or the DA until conveyance was done and, then, we approve
the ordinance and the DA and we annex it in minus that piece of property and, then, we
know the property boundary adjustment is done, the conveyance happens, everything is
good. Recently -- recent example of that is the storage facility over by the wastewater
treatment plant where they -- we did some -- we are in the process of doing a property
boundary adjustment and a -- and a property exchange with that property owner to get
access to our parcel and provide them additional sliver on their south boundary and
they are going to get -- we are going to get access along their north boundary and so
that annexation was held up and is currently being held up, because of that property
boundary adjustment with the county and waiting for that conveyance of ownership to
happen prior to us solidifying the -- the annexation and the development agreement to
conclude that process. So, that's the only way -- to me that's how we have handled this,
it's like let's get these pieces solved and make sure that it happens and, then, we annex
you.
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Yeah. How would we do that though? I mean it's not -- it's not a condition.
You can't deny the findings. You can't sit on it. So, how do you -- what's the hammer?
Parsons: The condition of approval was that the applicant -- you have six months to
execute a development agreement. In that particular case the applicant was -- had a
DA provision to go execute that and do those steps prior to us executing the DA and
approving the ordinance. So, that's how we did it and I know the applicant would like to
do it with the final plat, but, again, to your -- to your point, that's why it's an outstanding
issue tonight, because there is so many things you -- it's hard to think about every
possibility and that's why we are here tonight and we are hearing that, hey, there is --
there is some things that we have to -- we may want to consider or timing of that. A
consideration.
Hoaglun: Mr. Clark, would you like to follow up?
Clark: Thank you. Just a couple of things to add to that. You know, one is that as we
do those property boundary adjustments that's going to require work at the county.
That's taking at least a minimum of three months at this point once you get on a
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 33 of 47
surveyor's dance card and, then, you know, in addition to that I think that the priority
with all of this is to try to get that mid mile collector in and the further we kick the can
down the road with being able to even get an entitlement or get started on everything
the further the -- the collector works -- moves down that as well and, then, you are also
going to have a process with ACHD where they are going to review the -- the legal
descriptions and identify what -- on what terms they are going to accept that stub
property and so that's additional time and so we proposed final plat, because that made
sense to fold everything in within that time frame. It's reasonable at that point. It allows
us to keep moving, get construction drawings going, because we have an entitlement.
Whereas if we wait on all of this we kick it down the road for another six months, then,
really what we are doing is we are delaying the -- the construction of that mid mile
collector that everybody needs.
Hoaglun: Mr. Clark, I have got a question. As -- as that diagram shows in red, that little
stem, that -- so that's property that the applicant owns.
Clark: That's correct.
Hoaglun: Because it was, as we all thought, as things were moving forward, that that
would likely be a street that ACHD would require and, therefore, to have access to
property you would need that sliver, so -- and, then, that got shifted, so --
Clark: And, Council President, there is maybe a little bit more nuance to that. You
know, generally speaking when we own property the city wants us to include it with the
application. The -- to be honest, the -- the original discussion that ACHD had about
making it a local street was a surprise to us, because we didn't expect that they would
want it to be a local street. So, ACHD has kind of gone to where we didn't think they
would be back to where we thought they would be. But we included it, because it's part
of our property and, you know, there is -- we needed to be aware of whatever might
happen. You don't want to add property to a plat, you want to remove it if you have to --
to -- to do something less, rather than creating a notice issue by adding something
more. So, if that helps answer your question it's actually a little bit more nuanced than
that.
Hoaglun: So, I guess where it's going, Hethe, in trying to figure this out and, you know,
as I listen to Councilman Borton was the fact that -- and -- and to Mr. Parsons that,
okay, what do we do with that parcel. Allow this development. It does solve a problem.
We need that connection. It's a good development. I see, you know, things that will
work, but how do we -- how do we make everything move forward and deal with that at
the same time and knowing that things get resolved. So, it's just -- I -- I think that's
where I am on this is how do we make it all happen and work together at that same
time, so --
Clark: And, Council President Hoaglun, I -- I -- I absolutely understand the question.
Respect the question. The -- from our perspective final plat is the appropriate time to do
that. You -- that gives you the hammer, you -- you are not going to sign a final plat
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 34 of 47
unless you know that all that property has been conveyed out appropriately and that
would be, essentially, the next opportunity for you to -- to have a hammer and so we --
we think that that's the appropriate time to do it. If we do something else we are getting
the cart before the horse and we are also delaying the rest of the project.
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Were there any comments you had to the members of the public who provided
questions and concerns about timing, access, that you can help clarify or take a minute
to discuss, if that helps?
Clark: Sure. Yeah. You know, with regard to -- again with Zimmerman Lane that we
are not going to -- we are not going to impact that private access right. So, I think that
that addresses that. With regard to whether there is an off-site or anything along those
lines, this -- this is an off-site requirement by ACHD by definition, because ACHD has
determined that this is not an improvement, Zimmerman Lane, that is required as a
result of the development of the project. So, looking at your kind of rational nexus
evaluation, it -- it's not something that's required as a result of our development, so --
but what we are doing is conveying portions of that property at no cost to the public to
allow for those stubs to go in and, then, those stubs -- that area is about 50 feet, so that
is the -- that is not what we are talking about in terms of a -- a huge amount of cost. It's
-- it's something that would be appropriate that would -- it would go in in connection with
another project or at ACHD's cost, which is what ACHD has already identified in their
report. So, I think that ACHD has already addressed that in a way that I think is fair
given the -- the impacts of this project and -- and in light of the -- the traffic study and
the evaluation that they made with that.
Hoaglun: Council, are we ready to make some decisions? Thank you, Hethe. I will just
kind of kick things off and leave the public hearing open just in case something comes
up and whatnot and -- and as I commented earlier there is -- going through the Planning
and Zoning report and looking at it and understanding it better and appreciate staffs
explanation tonight, you know, how -- how it fits and you are trying to satisfy two
different things and sometimes those are in conflict and it makes sense that they are
doing what they are doing. We have known all along there will be that collector street
connecting as is -- is kind of a bit of a wrinkle and I guess it's just a matter of how do we
-- how do we resolve that in a -- in a -- what I think is a parallel path to make that
happen is the final plat a big enough hammer to make things happen or -- or be able to
make sure it's done appropriately. Those are things -- and I think some of the -- the DA
language or Zimmerman and the wrought iron fence, leaving the Kennedy Lateral I think
open is -- which is being done elsewhere is -- is fine. Making sure there is access --
appropriate access for the fire department in -- in -- in that area as -- as we move
forward. So, all very important questions. It's just a matter of how we put that together
in my mind, but Council or the rest of you might have different ideas, so --
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 35 of 47
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: I agree with you and this isn't -- I don't think it's that difficult of an application. I
think it looks good. I understand what the applicant is doing and why and how it's
consistent with the plan and -- and I just have the -- the -- the nervous caution that has
nothing to do with the applicant, but just to make sure when it's funky and it's
annexation, this is our one chance. So, I kind of pivot to staff, both Bill and Bill, to -- you
know, from our discussion is there -- you know, in the worst case scenario what are the
-- the things go sideways and we wish we had the condition or the trigger that required
or insured X -- a particular deadline; right? We talked about the final plat. I just want to
make sure we articulate specificity that has nothing to do with this particular applicant,
but more just good prudent avoidance of the it-will-never-happen-but scenario. That's
all. I mean we have got -- we have got property getting conveyed to other individuals
who aren't here to accept it. We are not sure that -- how that's all going to work and so
just kind of punting to see if you think there is some language that you would say, hey,
Council, if you are going to do something like this, you really should add a condition that
says X or in light of what Hethe said this would be a good effective trigger to accomplish
what I heard you just say.
Nary: Mr. President? So, Mr. President, Members of the Council, Council Member
Borton, I mean that's a great question. I am looking at the -- the map that's up on your
screen right now. So, is there one, two, three, four parcels that access Zimmerman
Lane from the west? Is that what it looks like to me? So -- so -- so, to answer one of
your questions is what if they can't make the conveyance. Well, if that's a condition for
a final plat signature and none of those property owners -- say it's either somebody who
isn't here or the property changes hands and says I don't -- I don't want that road, I
won't accept it, well, they can't satisfy the conditions, so they are going to have to come
back here to address that in some fashion to get their final plat signed. About the only
thing, from what you propose, Councilman Borton, that I don't really have a -- in my
mind an answer to that and maybe Bill -- Bill Parsons does, but projects get delayed;
right? And one of the developers was concerned about the delays impacting his ability
to complete his development and what I heard -- and I wasn't positive from the
testimony -- is concern about the two and through and -- and the utilities extension and
I'm not certain if this project gets delayed how that would impact the adjacent property
that's trying to develop and moving there -- either utilities through or their construction
through. So, I'm not certain, but Bill might know more about that one to be able to
answer whether or not there needs to be some condition to make sure that it doesn't
impact the adjacent development. Those are the only two things I heard that could be
impacted by a delay or by a rejection and one of them I think would require them to
come back to you to answer what do you want us to do now that they won't accept it.
How do we -- how does ACHD or the city want to handle that? I don't know that that's
happened very often, but, again, they are not all here. But I don't have an answer, other
than, Bill, maybe you do.
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 36 of 47
Borton: Okay. Thanks.
Parsons: Yeah. Mr. President, Members of the Council, again, I think the applicant
brings a good point. If this was extended as a roadway and those roads touched, then,
it's to and through and when you don't do that we can't require it. It's not part of the plat.
Again, it's annexation, so, again, if the applicant were to agree to those terms and help
out or do some cost sharing with the Alamar applicant, that's something that you could
see if that -- they are willing to offer up and add that into a development agreement.
The other -- to Mr. Nary's point is, yeah, certainly where -- anything staff is always going
to be cautious, because we are -- we are tasked to look out for the best interests of the
city and the public and we want to prevent things from happening, because we can't
control everything that happens. We don't -- we can't control construction delays. We
can't control construction timing. All we can do is let you know of the facts and some of
the outstanding issues and challenges that occur when we do things -- when we rush
things or we -- for lack of a better word -- require things later on in the process -- as you
know at annexation you have the broadest discretion and you can -- and you can
require certain things. When we get down to a final plat or even signature on a final
plat, at that point we are -- things are being built, it's on a Consent Agenda -- to -- to Mr.
Nary's point is if we can't sign the plat, then, obviously, they have to come back and
amend that agreement in order to get that signature. So, it really comes down to your
level this evening as to whether or not you want to delay or move forward with that
recommended DA provision by the applicant to allow that -- those items to occur at final
plat signature with an agreement that they cost share for the extension of the sewer and
water extension or you would provide a new one that said -- or you provide a separate
DA provision that says you coordinate with the applicant or cost share with him on that
and, then, construct the roadway. Certainly if you have that in the DA I think ACHD
would probably support you in that effort. They have always told us if the city wants
something, then, just let us know and, then, we can try to make that happen. So, again,
the contract is in your hands. It's what you want in that contract with annexation.
Borton: Okay. Kind of punted it back a little bit.
Parsons: But if you were asking for my opinion, staff would feel more comfortable
waiting for all those pieces to be fixed -- handled before annexation was done. But just
for being consistent with the process and what we have done in the past.
Borton: Okay.
Parsons: We are big on that, to be honest with you.
Overton: Council President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Overton.
Overton: You know, I'm -- I'm -- I'm really torn. I like this development, but I find myself
in a very similar situation to what we are all talking about. We want to dedicate
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 37 of 47
Zimmerman to two people or two property owners that aren't here. We don't know
whether they would be willing to accept it. We wanted to donate the Kennedy Lateral to
Nampa-Meridian, but we are not sure whether they would accept it or how that would
work and we really don't have ACHD here to walk us through their thinking and why
they made the -- the change in decision. I'm -- I'm not sure that forcing our hand and
making a decision on this tonight isn't rushing what we should be doing until we have all
the parts in place that we can make the best decision. I like the development. No
problem. I like the end result that it's going to have for connectivity at the half mile. I
think we have got to find a successful way that we deal with Zimmerman first before we
can get to that point.
Hoaglun: Okay. Mr. Parsons, you know, as I'm thinking one of my questions was, you
know, if -- if the applicant owned that stem, which I assume they did by the drawings
and everything and -- and they do, that ownership means they can continue to operate
that -- that -- the landowners have an easement on that property, they can continue use
of that -- that access point to their property. It can still move forward as -- as is in the
future. I mean that's -- they don't have to do the easement. It sounds like it was a -- I
like the idea of -- it's going to be in the county, so put it into the county and keep it clean,
so we don't have to deal with this, because that -- that just gets a little messy at times
when you have this -- this split ownership on -- on some of these things or jurisdiction I
should say, not ownership. But, you know, it -- it -- it could be kept in that ownership
and we just move forward with that ownership and they work it out as they can, but does
that cause any problems down the road? But it protects the easement. At some point
in time, though, once the collector is built ACHD may require some other things that --
that's the unknown here and I -- I wish we had more time -- that ACHD discussion could
have taken place sooner instead of the 11th hour just before we meet to discuss this.
It's no fault of the applicant. It just is what it is. So, yeah, there is just a -- and -- and --
and what option -- do we look at delaying it a week or two and maybe have the
applicant talk to the neighbors and say, okay, we have got an agreement in principle
and this is what we think -- we can -- we can accomplish it -- accomplish. I -- I don't
know if that's enough time. Of course there is the hearing renoticing and all that good
stuff. But is that an option we have, so --
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: Real quick. I kind of agree with Councilman Overton. It's a great project. I
would like just to get it right and if a short continuance lets these conversations
happens, let's ACHD participate -- it's not a month. Might be a couple of weeks to allow
this to happen and they just want to get the decision right and the -- and the conditions
correct, so I think it makes sense.
Cavener: Councilman Cavener.
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 38 of 47
Cavener: Mr. President. It's a rare opportunity that -- maybe because there is less of
us -- that everybody's in agreement about the project. That -- that has not been a -- a
common factor in -- in recent hearings. It sounds like, again, that our -- our issues are
more with Zimmerman. Frankly, I -- I had some -- some real heartburn about Aviator
and trying to kind of view how traffic was going to flow out of this development onto
Aviator and, frankly, some concerns about public safety where you have got all these
cars stacking up right next to an elementary school. I think that the highway district and
our police department can likely handle that. I am sympathetic that delaying this project
because ACHD waited until the 11th hour is, you know, not the -- the applicant's doing,
but I can also sympathize with the frustration of property owners -- if I get a notification
at a quarter to 5.00 that, hey, the staff report is finally ready -- although there has been
a couple of drafts that have been presented -- I would -- I would be reluctant to start
talking about a continuance without at least maybe giving the applicant an opportunity to
respond. I agree with Council Member Borton, but I don't think we are talking months.
If we would be it would mean -- again -- and I'm not even certain -- I doubt it's doable if
-- if even a recess would give some folks enough time to -- to chat amongst themselves.
I hate delaying this as a result of government not providing a report in a timely manner,
but certainly agree that we want to get it right. I fall more in line I think with -- with
Council President Hoaglun this evening and that I think we -- we do have a path to
move forward, but I appreciate the desire to make sure that you -- all of our I's are
dotted and our T's are crossed.
Parsons: Mr. President --
Cavener: And Council Member Perreault is also on the line, too.
Hoaglun: Yes. I was going to ask -- Council Woman Perreault, do you have any
thoughts, comments, questions?
Perreault: So, unfortunately, Councilman Cavener and Councilman Overton's mics
were cutting in and out, but if I'm following things correctly, it sounds like maybe there is
a desire to -- to continue to do some more work and -- and flush some issues out prior
to making a decision this evening. Is that what I'm hearing?
Cavener: Council Member Perreault, sorry, we have got a couple of technical issues
that we are working through. But I think the short answer to your question is yes.
Perreault: Okay. Thank you. I'm -- I'm in agreement with that as well.
Parsons: Yeah. Mr. President, Members of the Council, just to clear up the record for a
little bit for tonight's discussion. I want to -- I just want to make it clear for -- for the
Council and those in the audience and those listening at home that ACHD's updated
staff report was received today, but the Commission and staff and the public knew
where ACHD was going to land, so I don't want you to think that these conditions are
new. That they are -- what we are discussing tonight is what was discussed at the
Commission hearing. So, all -- all we have gotten today was the revised staff report to
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 39 of 47
reflect those discussions. So, I just want to be very clear on the record that it's not a
delay from them, it's just this updated staff report with the applicable conditions that
went along with our discussions with the applicant and the Commission came out today.
So, again, the only thing that has changed is the original e-mail from Christy Little at
ACHD indicated that the applicant would have to road trust for that right of way and that
has changed, because the sliver is being removed from the boundary of the plat. So,
that's probably the biggest take away from tonight's discussion is -- and that's where we
are getting hung up on how that's going to occur. ACHD will accept right of way through
a warranty deed. That's -- that happens all the time. So, that's really not an issue. That
-- that conveyance can happen very quickly. The applicant gets a surveyor, does that
up, gives it to them and they accept it and -- and make sure that it's consistent with their
conditions of this project. So, I don't know where we are -- to -- to our discussion -- the
city's discussion is we want to make sure that the property owners that assume the
additional property are willing to take that on and maintain it. That we don't -- although I
like your suggestion of the applicant holding onto it, it does give me a little concern,
because our code tries to prohibit having spite strips and that's what this could be and it
could create an issue for us in the future. Not that I think this developer would do that.
I'm not implying that. I'm just saying the code tells us don't do these things. Don't
create spite strips. So, that's -- that's why I don't want to try to -- I would like the option
of them having an agreement from the owners and making sure that they understand
they are getting 50 feet and they are maintaining additional properties that they weren't
anticipating. So, to your point, having that written agreement or their understanding of
that does go a long ways in the process. But just --just something to think about.
Hoaglun: Thank you, Bill. I would ask the applicant -- Hethe, Mr. Conger, if -- if we
delay it for two weeks to April 11 th -- I have -- I have checked with the clerk. We do not
need to renotice. This is not something we need renotice, but give you a couple of
weeks to come back and say, okay, here is the plan. We have talked to the neighbors,
here is how we can move forward, and -- and put something together like that. I mean
as you heard, there is not opposition to the -- to the project. There is a lot of good
things about this. But just a matter of what do we do with this little glitch here.
Conger: Mr. President, Members of the Council, Jim Conger. 4824 West Fairview
Avenue. Can I answer that question first with a question. So, as far as neighbors -- I
mean -- and the public hearing is still open. Is it a difference if I bring the neighbor up
here -- we have two neighbors that we want to give the land to. It's 50 foot. It's
substantial in width. If they redevelop in the future or it's over their current access
easement it is today. So, we are not giving them anymore right. They already have the
access. So, I'm not trying to look like a hero with that. But that 50 foot strip does
preserve the -- the most northern neighbor and he can come up and say he wants that
50 foot strip or not. We have the middle landowner that, then, has the access. He's
talking to Laren. Has the access from the middle point of the property south to Franklin.
Both of those -- it will go to two sets of owners, both county neighbors, and we -- and we
all keep saying it's very difficult to do city and Boise. I believe it's not possible to do city
annex land and a lot line adjustment. We have been told no on that in the past. So, we
have to go county to county to be able to do this. This is -- we are being generous on a
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 40 of 47
three month process. This is a three to six month process to do that. If we were to get
an approval and get our conditions of approval in the DA, it is more -- ACHD alone has
taken more than six months to approve a set of construction plans. Your city is still at
three or four months to approve a set of construction plans. We should still have this
development agreement done -- not development. The lot line adjustment with the
county done in about four months. We say three, but -- but I'm saying four just to be
safe. At the same time we should be in a position to have a pre-construction meeting.
If we say, no, your -- your ducks need to be further in a row, as the term was said, and
you need your -- we are not going to give you your annexation until this lot line
adjustment is done, then -- then we are sitting in a holding pattern. I can't submit
construction plans. I can't get going on the collector road and -- and there is no holdout
of -- of -- of people and the -- and the developer Mr. Wrede that you heard tonight -- that
is one hundred percent his main front entrance that was approved by this city council
and by ACHD -- can't be built until I build the collector. He was granted temporary
access, which he hasn't built yet, but he did say his plans are in. He's been granted
temporary access to Franklin Road, that as Deputy Fire Marshal said, is going to be,
then, tore out again. So, the whole goal of this area is to drive through our collector.
We have done an estimate -- I'm spending about -- and it doesn't matter about money --
but it's a 910,000 dollar deal to -- we are the hole in the doughnut that needs to be
finished. We have 66 homes, which won't pay for that, but we have the apartments that
will help that and -- and I'm not looking for charity here. I'm just saying we have a
substantial interest. We want to get a bulk of that in before weather is done in
December and -- and that's my problem, not your problem, be very clear on that. But --
but -- but we believe the condition of -- the city engineer will not sign the final plat
without this lot line adjustment done and the dedication over to ACHD prior to that
signature. There is no better protection than that, because I can't get my plat signed --
my property is one hundred percent worthless in the city if I don't get my plat signed.
And I can't just go willy nilly give ACHD the right of way that you see with the red,
because I have blue on both sides. If you see the bottom towards Franklin, the blue
dashed lines are on both sides of that red right of way -- that will not go through the Ada
County development lot line adjustment process, because you can't do lot line
adjustments through existing right of way. So, I have to do these record of surveys in
conjunction with the red dedication to ACHD. If I do the ACHD first -- so everybody
thinks I'm holding out on the other developer. I have to do the record of survey before I
can deed over to ACHD or I now have no means of getting certain areas to the property
owner that we have already promised the land to. I'm more than happy to have both of
them speak and if our gentleman in the back, which we -- we were confused, we
thought he lived on the property. We were having trouble -- Laren's left a few business
cards. Everybody has gotten our mailers for neighborhood meetings. There has been
definitely not our best moment, I will own that, but there has been a -- a goofy attempt
and that's usually on us. When they are rented out properties we -- we -- we have a
hard time getting owners sometime. Not when -- we just didn't realize it was rented and
that -- and that -- we are -- we are better than that. We should know that.
Meridian City Council

Hoaglun: Mr. Conger, quick question -- dedicate to the -- to the end parcel owners is --
is -- that's already in -- okay. But why not all four? I'm -- I'm missing that point of -- you
do the ends, but why not the other two that have to agree or will accept?
Conger: Mr. President, Members of the Council, very good question, because that's
where we were to begin with. So, our -- our developer that spoke tonight -- our adjacent
developer owns the blue area. He is already city annexed. I can't go into him. He
would like some of it. I would like to give him some of it. I cannot give him one inch of
that with the Ada county record of survey lot line adjustment process. The gentleman in
teal is right there -- has been an amazing human through the whole process dealing
with us and we have some of his irrigation water delivery issues up on the site. He had
-- the -- the folks in the pink, unfortunately, have passed away and there is quite a few
kids living in that property and it is in -- in shambles and we believe if they were to own
more property it would be with parked bad cars and it would be a disservice to the
gentleman in the teal colored. So, that is the -- the process of two of the four owners
getting the -- the -- the excess right of way, which would make both properties more
meaningful. These will eventually redevelop. Everything redevelops. Just -- is it ten
years, two years, or 20 years.
Hoaglun: Council, questions? Council Woman Perreault, any questions for Mr.
Conger? Okay.
Conger: Would you like my neighbor to --
Perreault: No, I don't --
Hoaglun: Go ahead, Jessica.
Perreault: Sorry about that. Sorry for the delays. No, I don't have any questions, but I
really do appreciate, Mr. Conger, that you came forward and explained some more of
this, because I have further clarity on it. So, thank you.
Conger: No. I apologize that it was confusing. It is confusing.
Overton: Council President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Overton.
Overton: Thank you again, Mr. Conger. So, if I understand the simplest version, the
reason it's two instead of four land owners is basically you have to do county to county.
You can't --
Conger: Yes, sir.
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 42 of 47
Overton: -- the one has been annexed into the city, so you, obviously, can't revert any
of that roadway back to them. Yep. Mr. President, Council Member Overton, that is
correct.
Overton: Okay. Thank you.
Conger: Want me to usher them up?
Hoaglun: I -- I was -- I guess the property owners you have identified are satisfied, I
assume, that the -- if you want to, Ryan, come up to speak. Sir, did you want to
comment? Don't -- don't have to, but --
Baldwin: Yeah. My name is -- my name is Harlen -- Haden Baldwin at 124 North Fritts
and the property they referred to as the -- the teal property, that's my property. That's
just to the west of Zimmerman Road that we are referring to.
Hoaglun: And -- and it sounds like you are in agreement with the --
Baldwin: Well, I'm not -- I'm not really familiar with the line -- the lot line adjustment. I
don't know if there is any -- some kind of adjudication involved with, you know, taking on
that piece of property. The -- the gentleman that owned the property for -- above, that's
what we are talking about, is -- was Newkirk. He and I kept this road, as well as all the
moves and stuff down on that road for 35 years. So, it's not something new that we are
-- you know, that I'm familiar with taking on.
Hoaglun: Okay.
Baldwin: Do you have any questions for me? I will be more than happy to answer
them.
Hoaglun: I don't think so, but appreciate your comments. Thank you. Yes, Mr. Wrede,
since your property is involved in this I think you should have time to comment.
Wrede: I would like to say that my concern isn't for getting any additional property, it's
really just to connect that fire access so I can move forward. I already have a right of
way to Zimmerman Road, just as everybody else along that road, and it's not
uncommon for somebody that has a right of way to improve the road. Like, Haden just
said, he's been maintaining it all along and there has been cases where, actually,
people that have right of ways can actually do more than just put some gravel down,
they can actually put road base and things like that down. I would be happy with
basically just an agreement. I think an agreement from them -- something recorded
would suffice saying that I have the capability to improve that 50 foot section of road, be
it by putting a road in or putting enough proper road base for the Fire Department to
have access through there.

Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Yes, Councilman Borton.
Borton: Will you point -- or Bill help point on a map which section you are referencing?
Wrede: The blue section, plus the entire five acres to the left of that blue section.
Borton: Got it.
Wrede: And the access is the red section, what they are talking about deeding to
ACHD. And, you know, if ACHD would have said in their report we are going to pay for
this and I wouldn't have a problem right now. But they said we are likely going to do it.
And when I see that term that means I'm going to pay for it and, so like I said, an
agreement would probably be all that is needed, if that. And the other question I have is
there is a difference between recording something or doing something when final plat is
done. That's when all the roads and everything are done. And I'm wondering if you are
talking about having these DA's in place when Council signs the final plat approval
versus signing the final plat. It's a little confusing. I wasn't sure which time frame you
were talking about that. There is a big difference.
Parsons: Mr. President, Members of the Council, Council doesn't sign plats. It's the city
engineer.
Wrede: Okay.
Parsons: So, they approve a final plat as part of a consent agenda --
Wrede: Right.
Parsons: -- and when you are ready to record and all the improvements are done, then,
the plat comes to us for signature and that's what the applicant is asking for the delay or
the DA provision to allow all of these things -- things to occur prior to signature on the
final plat. So, Council won't be involved at that point. It's going to be staff making that
determination.
Wrede: Okay. So, the --
Parsons: If the developer can't honor the contract, then, we are coming back before the
City Council for a public hearing to amend that -- that DA provision.
Wrede: Okay. So, the agreements and the DA consideration is talking about -- we are
part of getting final plat approval.
Parsons: No. The DA provisions are part of getting signature on the final plat, so --
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 44 of 47
Wrede: Not the ordinance. Not when the ordinance. When the DA is signed.
Parsons: Correct.
Hoaglun: And -- and, Jeff -- to your comment, Mr. Conger, was in conversation, but,
Laren, I -- I think having him improve the -- his portion of the road base and going out,
didn't seem like that was having agreement that they could make improvements on that
-- would -- would be an issue? Yes. If you -- if you won't mind.
Conger: Mr. President, Members of the Council, Jim Conger. So, the -- the ACHD right
of way cannot be dedicated over until we are done with the property boundary
adjustments.
Hoaglun: Right.
Conger: So, for him to go do improvements he will have nothing legally to put them on.
Hoaglun: Okay.
Conger: So, he -- he -- I get -- he's been -- we have met in my office. I get his urgency.
He just happens to have a phase two that is one hundred percent dependent also on
our collector road. I mean we are talking about the east road, but here in a minute I
don't believe the intent -- not after we read his conditions and I don't want to state -- I -- I
think there is some requirement for the collector road. I have got to build it first. That's
the 930,000 dollar deal and -- and -- and so, I -- I don't believe he can go do
improvements until I get this record of survey done.
Adamson: Hello, Mr. President. I did talk with Mr. Conger and I would be willing to
accept that property to be annexed to our property, given that the contract is acceptable
for signature.
Hoaglun: Okay. Thank you, Ryan. Appreciate it. Council, let's -- let's take a -- I don't
want to delay this any further, but we have been here for several hours now taking a
break, so -- I mean sitting here and going through a lot of details. Let's take a break
and, then, we can come back and, hopefully, have clear heads and -- and decide how
we are going to proceed on this, so -- six minutes? All right. Six minutes.
(Recess: 8.09 p.m. to 8.15 p.m.)
Hoaglun: All right. Let's come back together. For those of you in the audience once
this issue is done you can go home and do whatever, but we have an Executive
Session to go into after this, so we aren't done. So, thank you for letting us take that
brief break. Appreciate it. And got one Council Member who is -- needs to come back
here in a second. Council Woman Perreault, I assume you are -- you are still with us?
Perreault: Council President Hoaglun, can you hear me?
Meridian City Council
March 28,2023
Page 45 of 47
Hoaglun: Yes. There you are.
Perreault: Great. I'm here.
Hoaglun: Great. Thank you. Councilman Borton.
Borton: Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: I'm -- I'm going to throw out some more comments I guess. I'm still in the
mindset of where some of the Council had concerns -- not with the project itself, but with
ensuring we have got the I's crossed and the -- T's crossed, I's dotted. Good Lord, I
can't even say that right. And that's really important. It is to me. So, I appreciate
members of the public being here and these adjacent land owners and -- and Jim
talking to you really quick and he's trying to get something worked out. I don't doubt you
have got layers of delay or slow government I guess. It's all sorts of levels to make this
happen. I'm still of the opinion that using two weeks to let everybody have the
conversations and you get to review conditions and correct if they are not agreeable
and you are not left trying to say yes or no on the fly. We can have it on the 11th, giving
Bill and Bill and you, the neighbors, everyone time to talk, review language, and get it
right. I don't doubt that it's going to be right. I think it's a great project. I think we have
heard a lot of positive you can take from today if it's going to be continued that we like
the project, we understand it's consistent with what was intended there. Appreciate the
efforts that you probably also can chew on how to articulate that -- that northeast corner
and if it's going to retain as your ownership and, then, be maintained or not, that can be
clarified. I appreciate that. Everyone says the Kennedy can remain open. It makes
sense to remain open as well as requested. So, there is a lot of good in its design and
-- and how it really does fill the doughnut hole and provide that connectivity east and
west. So, I get the feeling that -- that it's going to be a successful project that should
breeze through in two weeks once we have the conditions that everyone is comfortable
with. So, you have been cooperative before, we have done that a little bit. Delays stink.
But, hopefully, if we can do a couple of weeks we will get it done right and you will have
a great successful project. Okay? So, Mr. President?
Hoaglun: Councilman Borton.
Borton: With that we will leave the public hearing open and I will move that we continue
H-2022-0088 for two weeks to be heard on the hearing scheduled 6.00 o'clock on April
11 th.

Cavener: Not a future meeting topic -- well, maybe a future meeting topic. Maybe just a
quick moment of privilege. I just want to put on the record just a hearty congratulations
to the Strader family to the addition of the Strader twins. Beautiful babies. And mom

MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 20, 2023
FROM: Crystal Campbell, Community Development Program Coordinator
TO: Mayor and Council
CC: David Miles, Chief of Staff; Daniel Torres, Economic Development Administrator,
Chris Johnson, City Clerk
RE: CDBG Housing, Public Facility, and Infrastructure Notice of Intent
Recommendations
1. Background
The Meridian Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program opens two competitive
applications each year.
• Public Service Application—available from April 1 to April 30.
• Housing, Public Facility, and Infrastructure Application—requires a higher level of review to
ensure projects are eligible and viable, so it requires a Notice of Intent (NOI) to apply. If the
project appears to be a good fit,the organization will be invited to complete the full application.
The NOI was available from March 1 to March 15 and the complete application will be available
from April 1 to April 30.
2. Housing, Public Facility, and Infrastructure Applicants
The Program Year 2023 NOI's have been received and evaluated using: 1) Project Eligibility
Determination to ensure the project meets the basic federal guidelines; 2) Pre-Award Risk
Assessment to determine the level of risk associated with the project; and, 3) Notice of Intent
Evaluation to determine if the project falls within the guidelines of the Consolidated Plan.
Applications are divided into separate categories for those addressing housing and those
addressing public facility and infrastructure needs. The funds for each category are also
separate, so applications are only competing against projects in the same category.

1. Describe what is being requested?
The use of chemicals in both the Water and Wastewater utilities is critical to ensure protection of public health and the environment. Additional operational budget is needed
for both departments to cover the anticipated expense of chemicals for the balance of the FY23 budget year. Due to chemical price increases and added chemical requirements
it is clear that the FY23 budgets will not fully cover the chemical needs of the utilities.
2. Why was_this budget request not submitted during the current fiscal year budget cycle? II
As budgets are developed over a year in advance,and chemical price increases are not necessarily known at that time,it can be difficult to estimate exact budgetary figures. Additionally,until
Individual water treatment filters and wastewater process units are run for several years,the exact chemical requirements can be difficult to predict.
3. What is the explanation for not submltting this budget request during the next fiscal year budget cycle?
The need for additional chemicals/chemical spending cannot be delayed.
i
4.Describe the proposed method of funding? If funding is split between Funds(i.e..General,Enterprise,Grant),please include the percentage split. List the amounts and
sources of anticipated additional revenue that will result from approval of this request.
r
Enterprise Fund
S.Does this request align with the Department/City's strategic plan? If not,please explain how this request was not included in the Department/City strategic plan?
Yes
6. Does this request require resources to be provided by other departments? If yes,please describe the necessary resources to be provided by other departments.
Yes-Procurement will need to supply change orders for chemical spending.
7.Does this Amendment include any needed E ui pment or Software that will utilize the Ci 's network? Yes or No
&Is the amendment going to result in the disposal of an asset? Yes or No)
9.Any additional comments?
Total Amendment Request $ 367,700
Every effort should be made to avoid reopening the budget for an amendment. Departments will need to provide back up and appear before the City Council to justify budget amendments.
Budget amendments are intendedfor emergency or mandatory changes to the original balanced budget. Changes to the original balanced budget may cause a funding shortfall.

CHEMICALS.
REQUESTED COUNCIL DATE: 3/21/2023
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION
A. Move to:
1. Approve a Budget Amendment in the amount of $367,700 for water and
wastewater chemicals.
2. Authorize the Mayor to sign the amendment.
II. DEPARTMENT CONTACT PERSONS
Laurelei McVey, Director of Public Works 208-985-1259
III. DESCRIPTION
A. Backgroun
The use of chemicals in both the water and wastewater utilities is critical to ensure
protection of public health and the environment. Chlorine is an essential chemical
in the drinking water system that is used for disinfection and is necessary for the
operation of treatment filters that remove brown water. The wastewater utility
uses a variety of chemicals to treat the wastewater to meet strict regulatory permit
limits.
Page I of 3
Supply chain issues and inflationary pressures have dramatically changed the
chemical industry over the past several years. While the City still competitively
bids these chemicals, in many cases prices have doubled over the past few years.
Additionally, with continued growth (additional flow) and installation of
additional treatment filters (water) and treatment processes to meet permit limits
(wastewater), the overall volume of chemicals used has also increased.
Fiscal Year Price Per Pound or Gallon
Chlorine Ferric Polymer
FY20 $1.69 $0.17 $1.17
FY21 - $0.18 -
FY22 - $0.28 $1.91

FY23 $611,535 $816,235 $204,700
(anticipated) (anticipated)
FY24 $852,388 (planned)
B. Reason for Amendment
Because budgets are developed over a year in advance, and chemical price
increases are not necessarily known at that time,it can be difficult to estimate exact
budgetary figures. Additionally, until individual water treatment filters and
wastewater process units are run for several years,the exact chemical requirements
can be difficult to predict.
Page 2 of 3
C. Alternatives
These chemicals are required to protect both public health and the environment as
well as meeting regulatory requirements. Not using these chemicals is not a viable
option.
The Department intends to continue to work with chemical vendors to
competitively rebid contracts where appropriate to ensure the City is receiving the
best possible pricing. The Department also continuously works to ensure
treatment processes are optimized to use chemicals as efficiently and judiciously
as possible.
IV. IMPACT
The enterprise fund has sufficient funding to cover this overage.

The three (3) stub streets ( i . e . E . Chair Lift St . ) W. Atomic St. and W . Ski Hill St. ) in Ascent Subdivision are required to be extended with
development per ACHD . The applicant has provided a revised exhibit that demonstrates the extension of W . Ski Hill Street and is
proposing the Council approve the annexation request and preliminary plat without the property encumbered by Zimmerman Lane to
allow the applicant time to deed the property to 2 of the affected property owners .
A street is planned to stub at the south boundary of the subject property from Alamar Subdivision near the southwest corner of this site .
Per the recorded development agreement for the Alamar project, both property owners were to coordinate on the alignment of this
street to ensure they align to minimize access points to the future collector street, San Marco . The location of this stub street is not
approved and ACHD has required the applicant shift the road to the east and extend this street approved with the Alamar Subdivision .
Common Driveway : One common driveway is proposed at the northwest corner of the site . A total of 4 dwelling units are proposed on
the north side of the driveway and requires the applicant to apply for alternative compliance with the final plat.
Common Open Space : A minimum of 15% qualified open space is required to be provided for the entire development when
developed as an integrated development. The open space exhibit depicts 35 . 4% (or 3 . 55 acres) of common open space consisting of
three (3) large common areas over 5 , 000 square feet (s . f. ) at 41 , 652 and 9 , 239 s .f. and a large area at the south end of the site west of
the collector; 8400t wide landscaped parkways along the townhome lots ; and landscaped linear open space with phase 1 and phase 2
will include approximately 24% (2 .40 acres) open space for the multi-family portion .
Site Amenities : Phase 1 — play structure , swings , seating benches , climbing rocks and dome , large grassy play area , and covered
picnic area; MF — clubhouse , fitness center, enclosed bike storage , dog park , pool , walking trails , picnic area, bike repair station ,
outdoor seating , and public art.
Both qualifying open space and amenities exceed UDC standards .
Waterways : The Kennedy Lateral crosses the northeast corner of this site within a parcel of land owned by the irrigation district . This
parcel bisects the subject property into two (2) parcels and will remain open . The Applicant is working with the irrigation district to try to
deed the small "triangle" area on the north side of the lateral .
Building Elevations : Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed structures within the development , Two ( 2)
elevations were submitted for the 2-story attached units and the 2-story townhome units ; building materials consist of a mix of board &
batten siding , soffit board siding , cottage lap siding and shake siding . Two ( 2) elevations and perspectives were submitted for the 3-
story multi-family apartment buildings ; building materials consist of mix of board & batten siding and horizontal lap siding with fiber
cement panel accents , An elevation was submitted for the clubhouse ; building materials consist of a mix of board & batten siding and

TMISAP and the Architectural Standards Manual (ASM) .
Commission Recommendation : Approval at the March 2nd hearing
Summary of Commission Public Hearing :
i . In favor: Hethe Clark (Applicant' s Representative)
ii . In opposition :
iii . Commenting :
iv . Written testimony : None
v . Key Issue (s) : None
Key Issue (s ) of Discussion by Commission :
i . Incorporating more alley-loaded townhome lots in the development;
ii . Architectural design standards in the TMISAP , specifically as it related to front porches, individual garage doors , and stepping
the garages back 20 feet from the primary facade ;
iii . Design elements of the Plan versus the TN - R standards ;
iv. Extension of Zimmerman Lane .
Commission Change (s ) to Staff Recommendation :
i . Commission modified DA provision is to specify that the single-family attached and townhome structures did not need to comply
with some of the design elements in the TMISAP .
ii . Various DA provisions and conditions of approval were modified to account for ACHD ' s determination for the extension of the
surrounding stub streets to this property .
Outstanding Issue (s) for City Council :
i . Removing the 50 -foot sliver of property, known as Zimmerman Lane , from the boundary of the annexation and preliminary plat to
allow the applicant time to potentially deed this property to the adjacent County residences to own/maintain . The applicant is
proposing the Council add the following DA provision should you choose to support the applicant' s request: "PerACHD
direction, Zimmerman Lane will not be dedicated as public right-of-way, with the exception of two stub locations at
Atomic St. and Chair Lift St. Dedicate such stub locations to ACHD in configurations required by ACHD prior to
signature on the first final plat. The remainder of Zimmerman Lane will remain a private access. Because Zimmerman
Lane will remain a private access, modify the annexation and preliminary plat boundaries to remove Zimmerman Lane
to facilitate possible future conveyance of the remainder of Zimmerman Lane to property owners benefitted by this
access easement who remain outside city limits. "

III. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS(Comprehensive Plan)
Land Use: The Future Land Use Map(FLUM)contained in the Comprehensive Plan designates this
property as Mixed Use—Regional(MU-R).
The purpose of the MU-R designation is to provide a mix of employment,retail,and residential
dwellings and public uses near major arterial intersections. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses
together,including residential,and to avoid predominantly single-use developments such as a
regional retail center with only restaurants and other commercial uses. Developments should be
anchored by uses that have a regional draw with the appropriate supporting uses. The developments
are encouraged to be designed consistent with the conceptual MU-R plan depicted in Figure 3D (pg.
3-17).
The Applicant is currently developing the site with office(and possibly some secondary retail uses)
and multi-family residential uses. The site is located near S. Eagle Rd. and E. Overland Rd.,a major
arterial intersection, and the Eagle Rd./I-84 interchange. The offices provide nearby employment
opportunities and services for residents in the vicinity. Other commercial uses (offices, entertainment,
multi-tenant retail,hotel, etc.) exist to the west in the larger MU-R designated area for a larger mix of
uses as desired in MU-R designated areas. Pedestrian walkways are proposed for interconnectivity
within the overall area.
Annexation and Rezone:
The proposed annexation is for a sliver of property on 0.143-acres of land with a C-G(General Retail
and Service Commercial)zoning designation. The out parcel along the northern boundary of the site
was owned by a third party and not part of the Development Agreement(#2022-026383). During the
Public Hearing process for this development,the Applicant placed the out parcel under contract; the
property has now been acquired and included in the overall Eagle View Landing project. City Staff
requested that the Applicant request R-40 zoning for the multi-family portion of the development to
more accurately reflect the uses developed on this site when looking at the City's zoning map.
Ultimately,the project was approved with a C-G zoning designation for the multi-family portion of
the development. Both the office buildings and multi-family development are currently under
construction at this time and were approved with Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design
Review Applications (A-2022-0047,A-2022-0059,A-2022-0118). A condition of approval of the
Rackham East Subdivision/Eagle View Landing project required the Applicant to annex the out-
parcel along the northern boundary of the site and rezone the western C-G zoned portion of the
Page 4
multifamily development to R-40 within one(1)year of recordation of the Development Agreement.
This application request is to initially ensure a clean-up of the zoning for these sites.
The City may require a development agreement(DA)in conjunction with annexation and
rezone pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A.Because there is already an existing DA in
effect for this property and the proposed development is in compliance with the DA, Staff does
not recommend a new DA or changes to the DA with this application.
IV. DECISION
A. Staff:
Staff recommends approval of the requested annexation and rezone with the provisions noted in
Section VI,per the Findings in Section VII.
B. The Meridian Planning&Zoning Commission heard these items on March 2, 2023.At the public
hearing,the Commission moved to recommend approval of the subject Conditional Use Permit
request.

V. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS
(This section and the one below have been updated in a strike-through and underline format that reflects
the discussion at the public hearing and the Commission's recommendation on the subject application.)
This property is designated Medium High-Density Residential(MHDR)on the Future Land Use Map
(FLUM)and is located within the area governed by the Ten Mile Specific Area Plan(TMISAP).
LANs USE: MHDR areas are locations recommended primarily for relatively dense multi-family housing
types, such as row houses,townhouses, and condominium and apartment buildings and complexes. These
areas should have a mix of housing types that achieve an overall average density target of 12 dwelling units
per gross acre with densities ranging from 8-15 units per acre. MHDR areas typically are relatively compact
areas within a larger neighborhood and generally should be located around and near more intensely
developed areas, such as Mixed Use Commercial or Employment areas,in order to provide convenient
access to these commercial activity and employment centers for the greatest number of residents.Apartment
buildings are desired to be accessed via shared entrances and hallways.
The proposed development incorporates a mix of single-family attached homes with(44) front-loaded
garages, (18)alley-loaded townhouses and(216)multi-family apartments at an overall gross density of 13.2
units per acre consistent with the density desired in the MHDR FLUM designation in the TMISAP. The
apartment buildings have enclosed shared accesses but not shared hallways. This property is in an area that's
largely developed with and planned for medium high-density residential uses. Mixed Use—Commercial
areas are in the development process approximately '/4 mile to the east and Employment areas are designated
approximately'/2 mile to the west and south. The Ten Mile interchange is also within about 1.5 miles to the
southeast of the site.
TRANSPORTATION: ACHD's Master Street Map(MSM)depicts a new towncenter collector street across
this property from the west to the east boundary connecting to N. San Marco Way. The Transportation
System Map in the TMISAP lists the functional classification for this street as a collector street and the
Street Section Map lists the design classification as a major collector street,which is intended to be
constructed consistent with Street Section C as follows:
Page 5
1d' 9 B' 6' 1 r l r fi' ' d'
�av ne rave ne Bike
Lane 24' Lane
Cur�-n.cA distance
This street is planned to eventually provide a connection from W. Franklin Rd.to the west past N.
McDermott Rd.Local streets, an alley and a common driveway are proposed internally for access to the
proposed residential units.
DESIGN: All residential neighborhoods in the Ten Mile Interchange area should be developed in
consideration of Traditional Neighborhood Design(TND)principals and concepts and the standards
established by the City for the TN-R district. Future development should be consistent with the design
elements in the TMISAP for the MHDR FLUM designation as determined by the Application of the Design
Elements table(see pg. 3-49), as follows: (Staffs analysis of consistency with these elements is in italics)
3-33. Street-oriented Design: Useable porches should be a dominant element of residential buildings and
should be located along at least 30%of the front fagade of the buildings—a higher percentage is
recommended as is the location of porches on one or more side facades. When possible, garages should be
loaded from a rear alleyway.Where garages must be accessed from the front,the garages must be located no
less than 20' behind the primary fagade. Front-loaded 2-car garages that are visible from the primary street
must be designed with two(2) separate garage doors.
Out of the 62 single-family attached/townhome units, only 18 are alley-loaded,the other 44 are all
front loaded with living area 20'behind the garages away from the street. None of the units have
usable porches that meet the guideline, except for the multi family apartments.No porches are
proposed on the side facades.All units have single 2-car garage doors, not separate doors.
Covered entries to the units are proposed;however, these areas are not usable as a porch as they
are barely wider than the doors[i.e. 1'4"wider on the attached units (8"on each side of the door)
and 3'wider on the townhouse units(18"on each side of the door)]and are located to the side
and rear of the garages—not on the front facade as desired.In order to meet the minimum
guideline of 30%,minimum 7.5'wide porches would need to be provided for each attached unit,
and 6.6'wide porches would need to be provided for each townhome unit—this would still not
provide very "usable"porches as the entryway to the door takes up most of that space.

• 3-34.Buildings to Scale: Everything seen and experienced from the sidewalk—building fronts,
lighting,open space—should be designed for human interaction at a pedestrian's perspective.Key
elements to consider are the continuity of the building sizes,how the street-level and upper-level
Page 6
architectural detailing is treated,elements that anchor and emphasize pedestrian scale,roof forms,
rhythm of windows and doors, and general relationship of buildings to public spaces such as streets,
plazas and other open space. Human-scale design is critical to the success of built places for
pedestrians. Building entrances should be placed close to the street; ground floor windows,
articulated facades, appropriately scaled lighting, awnings and other weather protection should be
provided.
Continuity of building sizes is proposed but with little variation inform and design of any of the
structures. The street-level and upper-level architectural detailing offer few differences in the
attached and townhome units;architectural detailing between the first two (2)stories on the
multi family units are generally the same with a different siding material on the third story.
Elements that anchor and emphasize pedestrian scale are windows, doors, weather protection/roofs
over windows and doors, window pop-outs and recesses—the addition of masonry accents on the
first floor facades would assist in emphasizing pedestrian scale and durability& quality of
materials. Building entrances are not placed at the street on attached units as desired, they are
located at the rear of the garages away from the street with garages facing the street. Building
entrances for the townhomes face the street as desired because these units are alley-loaded.
Buildings/living area are not oriented to open space areas or public spaces such as streets(except
for the 18 townhome units) as desired.
Revisions to the plans and elevations are necessary to meet this design criteria.More architectural
variety and details should be provided to differentiate between the street-level and upper-level
units.Lighting at a pedestrian-scale should be provided on the buildings facing the street and
internal walkways.
3-36.Neighborhood Design: All residential neighborhoods in the Ten Mile interchange area should
be developed in consideration of traditional neighborhood design principles and concepts,which
pertain to mixed housing stock, architecture and design, streetscapes and streets.Front porches and
garages accessed from an alley are usually the standard in residential areas;parking for homes is
primarily located behind buildings. Streetscape design relates to the street itself and consists of
landscaped parkways with trees between curbs and sidewalks, adjacent sidewalks and front yard
spaces and provides public space for street trees, street furniture and view corridors. Other aspects of
neighborhood design that contribute to a traditional streetscape are connected network of streets,
alleys and sidewalks. Roadways and pedestrian ways are interconnected so that access for
pedestrians, cyclists and automobile drivers is direct and convenient and allows traffic to be
dispersed through a variety of streets and ways.Narrower streets designed with TND characteristics
result in slower moving traffic and provide a safer,more pleasant pedestrian environment and
encourages interaction among residents.
A diversity of residential housing types is proposed for a variety of housing choices within the same
neighborhood as desired.Although two(2) different "types"of architecture are proposed for each
of the three(3) housing types, the form is the same and the trim details only vary slightly—only
some of the materials and window placements are different—more variety should be provided.
As previously noted, usable porches that meet the minimum guidelines are not provided for the
single-family attached and townhome units as desired.Alley-accessed garages and parking are
only provided for the 18 townhome units;the 44 single-family attached units are all accessed from
the street with parking in front of the garages facing the street, which is not desired.Landscaped
parkways are proposed as desired with view corridors but no street furniture is proposed except for
a couple of benches along the southwest side of the collector street.A connected network of narrow
streets, alleys and sidewalks is proposed as desired. ACHD is requiring traffic calming measures to
be provided in the collector street to slow traffic.

• 3-37.Building Form& Character:
Building Facades—Buildings should be designed so that their primary facades relate to active
public spaces and pedestrian areas. The primary facade of a structure is that frontage of the building
that has been designed and detailed so as to represent the building's most important elevations. The
primary facade should always include an entry into the building. Entries should be located so as to
provide direct access from adjacent public spaces,primary streets and activity areas.Access from
walkways should be uninterrupted by vehicular traffic.Buildings should be located so as to help
frame adjacent public spaces and to provide an architectural backdrop for associated passive and
active activities. The space between a building facade and the adjacent walkway should be
appropriately landscaped with a combination of lawns,groundcover, shrubs and trees.
The townhomes are designed so that their primary facades face the street with direct pedestrian
access from primary streets; access from walkways is uninterrupted by vehicular traffic as garages
are accessed from alleys. The single-family attached structures, which make up 71% of the single-
family and townhome units, are not designed so that their primary facade relates to active
pedestrian areas or public spaces—the garages face the street;the entry is at the living area 20'
behind the garages. Building entries do not have direct pedestrian access from the street because
garages are in front of the living area facing the street,access from walkways is interrupted by
vehicle traffic because all of the units have front-loaded garages and driveways. The multi family
units have direct pedestrian access that is uninterrupted by traffic because walkways are proposed
up next to the buildings. None of the units, including multi family units,frame open space areas;
only the townhome units frame the streets as desired.Landscaping is not depicted on the plan in
the space between building facades and adjacent walkways as desired
Revisionsto eplans and elevations am neeessary to meet this design e4teri,%A dif-ftientppo
tffle should beprovidedfor the aftaehed units jvkh garages set baek as least 20'behin
The space between the building
fafade and adjacent walkway should be appropriately landscaped with a combination of lawns,
groundcover,shrubs and trees;a landscape plan should be submitted that demonstrates
compliance with this guideline.
Building Heights: Low-rise buildings of 2-4 stories over much of the area is recommended.
Two-story single-family attached and townhome structures and 3-story multi family structures are
proposed in accord with this guideline.
• Pitched Roofs: A mix of flat and pitched roofs are anticipated in the Ten Mile area based on a wide
variety of individual buildings. Pitched roofs should be,where possible, symmetrical hips or gables,
with a pitch between 4:12 and 12:12 with an overhang of at least 12 inches and a maximum of 2.5'.
Roof brackets and rafter tail treatments are encouraged.
All of the roof pitches proposed fall within the desired pitch range. Corbels are depicted on all of
the concept elevations;rafter tail treatments are encouraged as well as other design elements as
noted in the ASM.
Page 8
• 3-47.Public Art: Public art should be incorporated into the design of streetscapes,public buildings,
parks,transit, infrastructure, and other public projects in the Ten Mile area. Public art should be
meaningful and encourage the free flow of ideas and cultural ideologies. Public art should be
integrated into either the architectural design or the design of plazas and public spaces associated
with a building and should be easily visible to the public (e.g. visible from the street or publicly
accessible open spaces rather than interior courtyards).
Public art is not proposed but should be provided in accord with this guideline.Details should be
submitted prior to the City Council hearing on what type of public art is proposed and the location
of such. The provision ofpublic art would also qualify as another amenity(1 point).
Goals,Objectives, &Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable
to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property(staff analysis in italics):
• "Encourage a variety of housing types that meet the needs, preferences, and financial capabilities of
Meridian's present and future residents."(2.01.02D)
The proposed single-family attached dwellings, townhouse dwellings and multi family apartments will
contribute to the variety of housing types available within the City.
• "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.
• "Avoid the concentration of any one housing type or lot size in any geographical area; provide for
diverse housing types throughout the City."(2.01.01 G)
This area contains a variety of housing types, including single-family attached and detached homes,
townhomes and apartments, which contributes to the diversity in housing types available within the
City.
• "Require all new development to create a site design compatible with surrounding uses through
buffering, screening,transitional densities, and other best site design practices."(3.07.01A)
The western portion of the site proposed to develop with single-family attached and townhouse
dwellings should be compatible with adjacent like uses to the west and south; the eastern portion of
the site proposed to develop with multi family apartments should be compatible with adjacent
townhouse and multi family apartments to the east. The railroad tracks and associated right-of-way
provides a 200 foot separation between single-family detached homes and the proposed
development. The street buffer and associated landscaping along the proposed collector street(N.
San Marco Way)will assist in buffering the single-family attached and detached homes and
townhomes to the south. The proposed density should be compatible with adjacent existing and
future development in the MHDR designated area.
• "Encourage compatible uses and site design to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land."
(3.07.00)
The proposed residential uses and site design should be generally compatible with adjacent
residential uses and developments.
• "Support infill development that does not negatively impact the abutting, existing development.
Infill projects in downtown should develop at higher densities, irrespective of existing
development."(2.02.02C)
Page 9
The proposed infill development shouldn't negatively impact adjacent existing properties as similar
uses and densities exist and/or are planned in this area.
• "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 with development of the
subdivision;services are required to be provided to and though this development in accord with
current City plans.
• "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote
neighborhood connectivity."(2.02.01D)
There are no multi-use pathways designated on the Pathways Master Plan for this site, nor are any
pathways stubbed to this property other than sidewalks along public streets. The sidewalks along
streets will promote pedestrian connectivity with adjacent neighborhoods.
• "Require urban infrastructure be provided for all new developments, including curb and gutter,
sidewalks,water and sewer utilities."(3.03.03G)
Urban sewer and water infrastructure and curb, gutter and sidewalks are required to be provided
with development of the subdivision.
• "Eliminate existing private treatment and septic systems on properties annexed into the City and
instead connect users to the City wastewater system; discourage the prolonged use of private
treatment septic systems for enclave properties."
If annexed, the septic system for the existing home is required to be removed with development.
• "Maximize public services by prioritizing infill development of vacant and underdeveloped parcels
within the City over parcels on the fringe."(2.02.02)
Development of the subject infill parcel will maximize public services.
VI. STAFF ANALYSI
A. ANEXATION(AZ)
The Applicant proposes to annex 23.67 acres of land with a TN-R(Traditional Neighborhood
Residential)zoning district which is listed in the Zoning District Compatibility Matrix in the TMISAP as
one of the best choices for zoning in the MHDR designation.
A preliminary plat and conceptual building elevations were submitted, included in Section VIII, showing
how the property is proposed to be subdivided into 63 building lots and 8 common lots for the
development of 44 single-family attached dwellings, 18 townhome dwellings &216 apartments for a
total of 278 new residential units.
The proposed residential use,mix of housing types and density of the development is consistent with the
MHDR FLUM designation; however,the proposed architectural design,especially for the attached
units,does not comply with the TND guidelines in the TMISAP, as discussed above.Development
in this area should conform to these guidelines in order to be deemed consistent with the Plan and
in the best interest of the City for annexation. Staff r-eeommends revisions to the plans as noted
above in Seetion V prior-to Commission aetion on this appliention.
This property,along with two (2) 1-acre properties to the south, are enclaves surrounded by existing and
future residential uses—single-family residential detached homes exist to the north(Chesterfield),
townhome dwellings are in the development process to the south(Ascent),townhome-style multi-family
Page 10
dwellings exists to the east(Entrada Farms), single-family attached and detached homes are in the
development process to the south(Alamar); and single-family attached homes are anticipated to develop
on the property to the west(Aviator).
A legal description and exhibit map for the boundary of the property proposed to be annexed is included
in Section VIII.A. This property is within the City's Area of City Impact boundary and within the area
governed by the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP), as discussed above in Section V.
The City may require a development agreement(DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to
Idaho Code section 67-6511A. If this property is annexed, Staff recommends a DA is required with
the provisions discussed herein and included in Section IX.A.
B. PRELIMINARY PLAT(PP):
A preliminary plat is proposed consisting of 63 [44 single-family attached, 18 townhomes&one(1)
multi-family lot for 216 apartment units] building lots and eight(8) [five (5)landscape, one(1) common
driveway, one (1)alley and one(1)non-buildable)common lots on 21.06-acres of land in the TN-R
district. Proposed lots range in size from 2,090 to 4,257 square feet(s.f.)with an average lot size of
2,790 sf. The subdivision is proposed to develop in two(2)phases as shown on the preliminary plat in
Section VIII.B. The single-family residential portion is proposed to develop with the first phase and the
multi-family development in the second phase.
Single-family attached dwellings,townhome dwellings and multi-family developments are listed as a
principal permitted use in the TN-R zoning district per UDC Table 11-2D-2. Multi-family developments
are subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27;review of the development for
consistency with these standards will occur with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application.
Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There is an existing home and several outbuildings on the
property that are proposed to be removed with development. Prior to the City Engineer's signature on
the final plat,all existing structures that do not conform to the setbacks of the district are required
to be removed.
Dimensional Standards(UDC Table 11-2D-6): The proposed plat and subsequent development is
required to comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the TN-R zoning
district. There is no minimum lot size in the TN-R district; each building site is required to be of
sufficient size to meet the minimum setbacks for the district. A minimum of two (2)housing types are
provided as required.
Access: Access is proposed via the extension of N. San Marco Way, a collector street,at the southeast
corner of the subdivision. San Marco Way will extend to the west boundary and connect with W. Aviator
St. to be extended with Aviator Subdivision(H-2020-0111).
This property and three(3)properties to the south take access from Zimmerman Ln., a private street;two
(2)of these properties don't have public street frontage. ACHD is requiring Zimmerman Ln.to be
dedicated and improved as a local public street in order to provide a north/south street connection
between Franklin Rd. and the collector street,public street frontage for the two parcels to the
south, and access to Ascent Subdivision from a local street,which will enable their temporary
vehicle access to be converted to emergency and pedestrian access only.The plat should be revised
accordingly.
Three(3) stub streets(i.e.E. Chair Lift St.,W.Atomic St. and W. Ski Hill St.) exist in Ascent
Subdivision that are required to be extended with development as required by ACHD.
A street is planned to stub at the south boundary of the subject property from Alamar Subdivision near
the southwest corner of this site per the approved preliminary plat(H-2022-0004). The development
agreement for Alamar(Inst.#2022-065010) states the final alignment at the north property line shall be
Page I I
determined at the time of the second final plat submittal to allow the developer flexibility to work with
this developer on the alignment. Although the second phase final plat has not yet been submitted,the
common lot at the northwest corner of the Alamar development was included in the first phase(FP-
2022-0027)with the southern portion of the north/south street(N. Feather Reed Ave.),which essentially
dictates alignment of the street north to the collector street. ACHD is requiring a stub street to be
provided from the collector street to the south boundary of the subdivision in alignment with Feather
Reed to the south;ACHD is not requiring Wolfsburg to align with that street. Staff is concerned about
the proximity of N. Wolfsburg Ave. to Feather Reed and safety of left-turn movements onto the collector
from both of those streets. The collector street has a fairly significant curve in this location as well that
may hinder sight distance.
Common Driveway(UDC 11-6C-3D): One(1) common driveway is proposed at the northwest corner
of the site on Lot 10,Block 1 for access to Lots 11-14,Block 1. Common driveways are allowed to serve
a maximum of four(4) dwelling units; in no case shall more than three(3) dwelling units be located on
one(1) side of the driveway. A total of four(4) dwelling units are proposed on the north side of the
driveway; the final plat and common driveway exhibit shall be revised to depict a maximum of
three(3)units on one(1) side of the driveway as required; or,alternative compliance may be
requested as set forth in UDC 11-5B-5.
A perpetual ingress/egress easement is required to be filed with the Ada County Recorder for the
common driveway,which shall include a requirement for maintenance of a paved surface capable of
supporting fire vehicles and equipment. This may be accomplished through depiction of the easement
on the face of the final plat and an accompanying note.If a separate easement is recorded,a copy
should be submitted to the Planning Division with the final plat for City Engineer signature.
Alleys (UDC 11-6C-3B. : One(1)20-foot wide alley is proposed for access to the townhome lots in
Block 3. The Alley should be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3B.5. A
detail of the alley should be submitted with the final plat that demonstrates complies with these
standards.
Parking: All single-family attached and townhouse dwelling units are proposed to have a 2-car garage
with a 2-space parking pad consistent with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for 1-to 4-bedroom units; if any units
contain more than 4 bedrooms, an additional two (2) spaces are required with at least one(1)of those
being an enclosed space. An additional 38 on-street parking spaces(0.5+per home) are available for
residents and guests as shown on the parking exhibit in Section VIII.1. These spaces are located adjacent
to common areas and in front of the townhome units as there is not adequate room in front of the
attached units for on-street parking with the width of the lots vs. the driveways. With the narrow 27-foot
wide streets proposed internally,which are desired with TND,parking is only allowed on one side of the
street.
A minimum of 430 parking spaces are required to be provided for the multi-family development based
on 48 1-bedroom units and 168 2-bedroom units,with 216 of those spaces being in a covered carport or
garage,per UDC Table 11-3C-6. A total of 442 parking spaces are proposed overall,which exceeds the
minimum by 12 spaces,with 221 of those spaces covered.
Based on the number of parking spaces provided(442), a minimum of 18 bicycle parking spaces are
required per UDC 11-3C-6G, in accord with the standards in UDC 11-3C-5C. A total of 18 spaces are
proposed. Staff recommends a bicycle rack is provided for each building and for the clubhouse.
Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A 20-foot wide street buffer with an 8-foot wide parkway planted with
Class lI trees and a 5-foot wide detached sidewalk is required to be provided along N. San Marco Way, a
collector street,per UDC Table 11-2D-6, landscaped per the updated standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C.
An 8-foot wide parkway with Class 11 trees is required along all local streets per UDC Table 11-2D-6,
landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C.
Page 12
All common open space areas are required to be landscaped with one deciduous shade tree for every
5,000 square feet of area and include a variety of trees, shrubs, lawn or other vegetative groundcover per
UDC 11-3G-5B.3. Shrubs should be added to common open space areas and the calculations table
on the landscape plan should be revised to include this updated standard; a minimum of 28 trees
are required.
There are several existing trees on this site that will be removed with development. An existing tree
inventory and mitigation plan is included in Section VIII.H. Mitigation is required to be provided per
the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-10C.5; calculations demonstrating compliance should be
included on the landscape plan submitted with the final plat application.
Landscaping is required along all pathways per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-12C.
Common Open Space(UDC 11-3G-3): A minimum of 15%qualified open space is required to be
provided within the single-family and townhome portion of the development per Table 11-3G-3 for the
TN-R zoning district. Based on 10.01 acres of land,a minimum of 1.5 acres is required to be provided
that complies with the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3B.Note: The multi family development is exempt
from these standards and is instead required to comply with the common open space standards listed in
UDC 11-4-3-27C. The multi family development will be reviewed for compliance with those standards
with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application.
The exhibit included in Section VIII.F depicts 35.4%(or 3.55 acres) of common open space for the
single-family and townhome portion of the development consisting of three(3) large common areas over
5,000 square feet(s.£)at 41,652 and 9,239 s.f. and a large area at the south end of the site west of the
collector; 8-foot wide landscaped parkways along the townhome lots; and landscaped linear open space.
The common lot at the southwest corner of the development will adjoin common area in Alamar
Subdivision if the stub street to the south is relocated further to the east as required. The collector street
buffers do not count toward qualified open space unless they meet the enhanced buffer requirements
noted in UDC 11-3G-3B.3,which is interpreted to mean buffer landscape materials consistent with
entryway corridors listed in UDC 11-3B-7C.3f. On the south side of the collector,the linear open space
that is outside of the buffer may count if landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B.
design.Preferably,the open spaee exhibit should be revised prior-to the Commission hearing but at the
latest before the City Couneil hearing,to inelude landseaping and other-design features that
demonstrate eomplinnee with the quality and qualified open spaee standards liste
Any areas that don't qualify should be depicted as non-
qualifying open space.When multi-family is approved concurrently with single-family,the
minimum open space requirements in UDC 11-3G-3 shall apply to the gross land area of the entire
development.
In order to qualify,common areas should be landscaped per the updated standards listed in UDC
11-3G-4B.3; parkways and street buffers should be landscaped per the standards listed in UDC H-
3A-17E and 11-3B-7C[collector buffers must meet the enhanced buffer requirements(i.e.
entryway corridor standards)in order to qualify]; stormwater swales that are incorporated into
required landscaped areas should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-11c; and linear
open space should be landscaped per the requirements in UDC 11-3B.
Site Amenities(UDC 11-3G-4): A minimum of two (2)points of site amenities are required based on
the area of the single-family/townhome portion of the development. Qualified amenities should include
features listed in UDC Table 11-3G-4. A 5,000+ s.£ children's playground with a play structure, swings,
climbing rocks, a climbing dome, seating benches, and a shade structure within a safe fenced area(3
points)is proposed which meets the minimum standard. The provision of public art, as recommended,
will also qualifty as an amenity(1 point). The"pathway park" consisting of 9,239 s.f. at the
southwest corner of the development where a shade structure,pathway and seating area is
Page 13
proposed should include a picnic table in order to qualify as a picnic area(2 points).Required
sidewalks adjacent to public right-of-way do not qualify. Overall,the proposed amenities exceed the
minimum standards.Note: The multi family development is exempt from these standards and is instead
required to comply with the site amenity standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27D. The multi family
development will be reviewed for compliance with those standards with the Certificate of Zoning
Compliance application.
Pathways: The Pathways Master Plan does not depict a multi-use pathway on this site.No pathways are
proposed except for sidewalks required along streets within the development.
Sidewalks(11-3A-17): A 5-foot wide detached sidewalk is required along W. Franklin Rd., an arterial
street, and along local streets in the TN-R zone within the development; and a 6-foot wide detached
sidewalk is required along N. San Marco Way, a collector street per Street Section C in the TMISAP,
consistent with the 6-foot wide sidewalk in Entrada Farms to the east.
Fencing 11( 3A-D: Fencing should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. Six-foot tall solid
vinyl fencing is proposed around the west and north perimeter boundaries of the subdivision and on
shared lot lines between building and common lots that are visible from the public street, as shown on
the landscape plan. A 5' tall open vision iron fence is proposed around the children's playground area. A
2-rail split rail fence is proposed at the back edge of the street buffer along the northeast side of San
Marco Way on the multi-family portion of the site. Fencing is not proposed along the perimeter of
Lot 1,Block 4 where it adjoins future common area in Alamar Subdivision and should not be so
that residents of both subdivisions can enjoy a larger common area.
Lighting(UDC 11-2D-6F1: In addition to the standards set forth in UDC 11-3A-11 of this title,the
following standards shall apply within the TN-R district: All dwelling units shall have a minimum of two
(2)lights at the front of the unit.All dwelling units on alley accessed properties shall have a minimum of
two (2)lights along the alley. All lighting required in this section shall prevent uplighting and shall be on
a photocell that activates the lighting at dusk and turns it off at dawn.
Waterways: The Kennedy Lateral crosses the northeast corner of this site within a parcel of land owned
by the irrigation district. This parcel bisects the subject property into two(2)parcels. The Applicant is
working with the irrigation district to try to deed the small"triangle"area on the north side of the lateral
to the irrigation district because it is of no value to this development.
A 6-foot tall closed vision vinyl fence is proposed adjacent to the lateral; UDC 11-3A-6C.3 requires an
open vision fence at least 6-feet in height and having an I I-gauge,2-inch mesh or other construction,
equivalent in ability to deter access to the lateral. Staff recommends a 6-foot tall wrought iron fence is
provided in this area to deter access to the lateral.
Utilities(UDC 11-3A-21): Connection to City water and sewer services is required in accord with UDC
11-3A-21. Street lighting is required to be installed in accord with the City's adopted standards,
specifications and ordinances.
Pressurized Irrigation System (UDC 11-3A-15): Underground pressurized irrigation water is required
to be provided to each lot within the subdivision as set forth in UDC 11-3A-15.
Storm Drainage(UDC 11-3A-18):An adequate storm drainage system is required in all developments
in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances.Design and construction shall
follow best management practice as adopted by the City as set forth in UDC 11-3A-18. A geotechnical
report was submitted with this subdivision.
Building Elevations: Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed structures within
the development as shown in Section V111.1. Two (2) elevations were submitted for the 2-story attached
units proposed in Blocks 1 and 2 and for the 2-story townhome units attached in units of three(3)
proposed in Block 3;building materials consist of a mix of board&batten siding, soffit board siding,
Page 14
cottage lap siding and shake siding. Two(2) elevations and perspectives were submitted for the 3-story
multi-family apartment buildings;building materials consist of mix of board&batten siding and
horizontal lap siding with fiber cement panel accents.An elevation was submitted for the clubhouse;
building materials consist of a mix of board&batten siding and horizontal lap siding with stone veneer
accents.
The proposed elevations are net approved in concept however,imd they should be revised4o
ineor-por-ate traditional neighboFhood design elements as set for-th in the T-AUSAP,as noted above
in Section 41 and in to comply with the Architectural Standards Manual(ASM).Remised
elevations should be submitted that demonstrate eomplianee with these guidelines and standards
prior-to Commission netion on this applivation.
Certificate of Zoning Compliance (CZC): A CZC application is required to be submitted for the multi-
family portion of the development; compliance with the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27
is required.
Design Review: A design review application(s) is required to be submitted for all single-family attached,
townhouse and multi-family structures within the development.Final design of all structures should
comply with the standards for traditional neighborhood design listed in the Architectural
Standards Manual(ASM)and any applicable traditional neighborhood design guidelines in the
Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP)for the MHDR FLUM designation(see the
Application of Design Elements table on pg.3-49).Note: Staff has not reviewed the proposed
elevations for consistency with the design standards in the ASM; this review will take place with
submittal of the design review application.The Applicant should closely review these standards
when making changes to the elevations in order to most accurately represent the style and
construction of homes proposed to be constructed on this site.

I. Existing Tree Inventory&Mitigation Plan
Newkirk Neighborhood Tree Inventory and Mitigation Plan
The following is an inventory of existing trees on the proposed Newkirk Neighborhood property. The trees are in
fair to poor condition as they have not been well maintained and most are in various stages of decay and nearly
all have structural issues.For this reason,we are proposing to remove all the existing trees and to mitigate for
some of the caliper inches of loss. Some of the trees such as the willow do not require mitigation per city code. A
map and photos of the trees is provided below as well as a total of caliper inches that should be mitigated for and
a calculation of trees to be provided in the new development per the landscape plan. It is calculated that
approximately 105"of existing tree caliper should be mitigated for,the project is providing 318 new trees with
an average caliper of 2"that equals 636 caliper inches. The new trees planted will far outweigh any trees being
removed from the site.
