Item 10:
AP 05~003 Request for Appeal of the Planning and Zoning Commission's
denial of Banff Subdivision Preliminary Plat by Landworks, LLC - 675
South Linder Road:
Wardle: Item No. 10 is AP 05-003, which is a request for appeal to Planning and
Zoning Commission's denial of Banff Subdivision preliminary plat. I will begin with
comments from the planning director.
Canning: Mr. President, Members of the Council, this -- the one you opened is the
appeal decision. There are two other concurrent applications. One is the Conditional
Use Permit for the planned development and the annexation and zoning. I wanted to
also, just as a note for the record, because this application was filed under the new -- or
under the old ordinance, we are treating the appeal as if it were under the old
ordinance, even though it was recently filed for. The question before the Council tonight
is whether or not they want to hear the preliminary plat, along with the annexation,
zoning, and Conditional Use Permit. Because as it is right now, you will not see the
preliminary plat, unless you grant the appeal. So, the two options, as I understand it
tonight, are that you grant the request for the appeal and, then, set a hearing date for all
three applications. You would open and continue the one for the Conditional Use
Permit and for the annexation and zoning. The earliest date that I believe we could get
that notice for is November 22nd. The other option is to deny the request for the appeal
and, then, you would just continue the annexation and zoning and Conditional Use
Permit applications until we could prepare Findings for you. So, that could be as early
as next week.
Wardle: Thank you, Anna. A procedural for question for Mr. Nary. Is this a decision in
which the Council takes any testimony or indication from the applicant or is this solely
our discretion to either hear the appeal or deny the appeal?
Nary: Mr. President, Members of the Council, you certainly can hear from the applicant
if you wish as to that is their desire to hear it. I mean the nature of these appeals -- and
you have seen a number of these over the years -- it's just because of the way our
ordinances previously had been structured. You won't have this in the future with the
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 6 of 33
way the UDC is now -- now formed. You won't have that type -- this type of separated
application. But you can grant the appeal, if that is the applicant's wish -- and must be,
obviously, that's why they applied for it. You don't have to have a hearing to make that
determination. Again, you would be granting the appeal merely for the purposes of
hearing the applications together, so it's really just the nature of the form of our
ordinance, not because you're granting their appeal or approving their project or
approving the plat, but just for the purposes of a Public Hearing. If you want to confirm
on the record that that is what their intent is, you certainly can do that.
Wardle: Thank you, Mr. Nary. Council?
Rountree: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: My preference would be -- if we are going to hear this particular application,
to have the preliminary plat along with the annexation request and the conditional use
request as a package. I would not be inclined to react favorably to the other two without
the preliminary plat. So, having said that, that doesn't necessarily indicate that this
would move forward beyond a future hearing, but as a complete package would be my
preference.
Wardle: Thank you. And I believe the planning director clarified that in our new code
that would be the procedure, everything would come forward together. So, this is one of
those clean-up items from our old code. Council, is there any other discussion? I would
entertain a motion. I believe we first need to act on the request for appeal and either
approve an appeal or deny that and, then, move to the next two applications.
Rountree: Mr. President, just a re-c1arification from counsel. In a motion can we open
the other two hearings and hold them open until we schedule a hearing for the 3rd or
should we just act on the appeal first and, then, act on the scheduled hearings?
Nary: Mr. President, Members of the Council, Councilmember Rountree, I don't know
that it makes much difference. [mean I think the intent -- you're going to want to open
the other two and continue those matters to the date certain. Whether you do that first -
- it probably would be easier to continue your appeal and your plat matter to that date
and, then, you could open the other matters and, then, continue those to the same date.
And, again, I think if your motion -- just to clarify your motion, if you're going to do that,
would be that you're granting the appeal simply for the purposes of hearing this project
and it's not approval or denial of the project itself.
Rountree: And another point of clarification, Mr. President. Anna, what kind of time do
you need if we were to move forward with this?
Canning: The preliminary plat needs to be re-noticed. So, the earliest it could be is
November 22nd and that's plenty of time for us.
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 7 of 33
Rountree: Okay. Thank you.
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Mr. Nary, I'm a little confused here. We are acting upon a request -- appeal on
the Planning and Zoning on the preliminary plat; is that right? And we haven't even
annexed it. How can we be doing that? We haven't annexed and zoned it. That's not
until the next item. So, how do we -- how do we enact upon a preliminary plat when
they are not even in our -- in our area of impact -- in our jurisdiction?
Nary: Mr. Mayor, Members of the --
Bird: Or did I miss something? I mean I could have.
Nary: No. Mr. President, Members of the Council, Councilmember Bird, what you're
acting on is a request for an appeal. You're not acting on the plat. If you're going to
grant the appeal, the appeal is simply to hear the plat. You're not making a decision on
the plat. You're making a decision whether or not you choose to hear it. So, all you're
doing is setting it over to hear it and you're going to set over the other matters to hear
them on the same date. So, as I said, technically, if you want to open the other ones
now and move them to the date, you can certainly do that as well. But all you're
granting is an appeal. You're not hearing the plat itself. That's why we have to provide
notice and have a hearing on that on the 22nd.
Bird: But follow up, please, Mr. President.
Wardle: Sure.
Bird: But, Mr. Nary, don't we have to have it annexed and zoned before we have a
preliminary plat that we can -- whether deny or approve?
Nary: Correct. And on the 20th --
Bird: And they are not.
Nary: But -- Mr. Bird, Members of the Council, but you're not acting on the plat, you're
acting on their appeal. They have applied for you to hear it and all you're doing is you're
granting their opportunity to be heard on their plat. You're not going to hear that plat
before you take up the annexation question of whether to annex them on the 22nd. So,
tonight you aren't making any decision on their plat, all you're making is a decision to
hear it here on the 22nd.
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 8 of 33
Bird: But, Mr. Nary, what would be the difference of somebody out in the county coming
in and asking us to deny or approve their preliminary plat without being annexed or
zoned? Where are we legally -- and I'm not saying we are not, I mean because I'm not
no legal eagle, but I just -- we have always been told that you had to be annexed and
zoned before you made decisions on preliminary plats, final plats, CUPs, and everything
like that.
Nary: But, Mr. President, Members of the Council, that hasn't changed, Mr. Bird. No
one can come and ask you to talk about their plat without it being annexed. The
problem is it's the way our ordinances are currently drafted -- the older ordinance -- not
the new UDC -- was the plat gets heard separately and is a separate final decision by
the Planning and Zoning Commission, so their only opportunity for you to hear them is
by granting their appeal to just hear their request for that plat in relation to that
annexation. So, you aren't going to make a decision on the plat tonight, all you're
making is a decision to hear it.
Wardle: And, Mr. Bird, if I could just clarify real quick, Discussion with the planning
director was in the old code the power of the Planning and Zoning Commission was to
hold the plat. They could hold the plat from going forward without a recommendation,
as I understand it. The other applications come forward to the City Council in the old
code regardless.
Nary: And the reason that worked -- made sense -- or did make sense is if you were
dealing with property that's already annexed, then, you wouldn't have to worry -- you
wouldn't have to have your -- every single plat come forward to the City Council, it could
be heard at the Planning and Zoning Commission. But when it's tied together, there
was no mechanism in the old code to keep them together for you to hear them all,
because, otherwise, you're stuck in the quandary that Councilmember Rountree stated,
where without the appeal you cannot hear the plat, but you have to hear the annexation
and the conditional use, which would have no relationship to anything without the plat.
So, you would have to have them all together. It was just a deficiency in our old code
that occasionally would crop up like this, where we would have one piece of it not tag
along with the rest of it that you would see. But, Mr. Bird, what -- your recollection of
what you have had previously hasn't changed. You aren't deciding on whether their plat
is appropriate, is drawn properly, it has the right setbacks, it has the right lots, it has the
right anything, all you're making a decision on is whether you will choose to hear that
with the other projects and that's it.
Bird: Okay.
Wardle: Thank you. Further clarification, Council?
Bird: No.
Donnell: Mr. President?

Item 13:
Public Hearing: PP 05-042 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 3
building lots and 1 common lot on 10.85 acres in a l-L zone for Weed and
Pest Control Camous Subdivision by Ada County - on East Pine
Avenue west of North Locust Grove Road:
Wardle: Thank you. Item 13 is a Public Hearing, PP 05-042, preliminary plat for Weed
and Pest Control Campus Subdivision by Ada County. [will open with staff comments.
Canning: President Wardle, Members of the Council, I'm having a really hard time not
calling you Madam Mayor. I really apologize if that slips out.
Wardle: Please don't.
Bird: That would be fine.
Rountree: We'd enjoy that.
Bird: We would enjoy it.
Canning: This project is the Weed and Pest Control. It's on the south side of Pine
Avenue, west of Locust Grove. You can see it highlighted. The site is currently vacant.
You have seen a couple of residential applications on it prior to this, as well as you
approved a lot split in the southeast corner previously. The applicant is proposing three
lots and a road extension in this preliminary plat. There are no uses proposed right
now. They are coming forward with a Conditional Use Permit. Normally at this time,
because of the Comprehensive Plan designation of mixed-use community, you would
see a Conditional Use Permit, but the applicant has agreed that they will do them
individually, as they develop the site or they will come in for a concept plan for a CU at a
later time. So, that's why you're not seeing it today -- tonight. There are no elevations,
because, as I said, there are no uses proposed. The Planning and Zoning Commission
did recommend approval at their October 6th, 2005, hearing. There were no key issues
of discussion and to our knowledge there are no outstanding issues before Council. I
would like to note on the record that there has been a question about an access drive
that's being proposed with the construction drawings and that would be located on the
west side of the property. I spoke with the applicant's representative today and he's
going to come in and submit an alternative compliance for the landscape buffer that's
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 11 of33
required and will we work together and figure out the appropriate thing to do there. So,
that will get done at staff level.
Wardle: Thank you, Anna. Questions of staff? Would the applicant like to come
forward? If you will, please, state your name and address for the record.
Fluke: Thank you, Mr. President. Daren Fluke, JUB Engineers, 250 South Beechwood
in Boise. We are representing Ada County on this application. It's a fairly simple plat.
As Anna stated, we will be back in front of you -- or back in front of the Planning and
Zoning Commission, I suppose, with a conditional use application for the Weed and
Pest Control building, which will be located here on this lot. I don't think there is, you
know, a lot to talk about with this application, so I think I'll just leave it at that and if you
had questions I would be happy to answer those.
Wardle: Thank you. Council, questions of the applicant?
Bird: I have none.
Donnell: None.
Rountree: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Just explain the street extension and the connectivity.
Fluke: Currently Pine Avenue sits on the north of the site. We will be dedicating
additional right of way for that, as well as building a detached sidewalk within the right of
way, the future right of way. We will have a driveway that aligns here with Stonehenge,
that's approved by ACHD as a 40-foot commercial approach. We will also be extending
this stub street here, which is Commercial Drive or Avenue, I forget what the
designation is. Commercial Street. I mean that, basically comes up with a little S curve
and Gomes about to the property here, where it will be left as a stub street for future
extension. ACHD's thinking is that it will align with the Broadway right of way here and
will connect in the future. So, we don't have any other plans other than that at this time.
Rountree: Thank you.
Wardle: Thank you. This is a Public Hearing. Is there anyone else that would wish to
provide testimony on Item No. 13? Mr. Rountree?
Rountree: Mr. President, seeing no further comment, I move that we are close the
Public Hearing for Item 13.
Bird: Second.

Wardle: Item No. 14. Before I open this, applicant had called staff with a conflict and --
is the applicant --
Canning: I do not see the applicant, unless she's out in the hallway.
Wardle: Applicant has asked that we move -- with Council's permission, move to Item
15 and hear Item 14 after Item 15.
Bird: That would be my preference.
Item 15:
Public Hearing: VAR 05~021 Request for a Variance to allow three
access points onto Eagle Road for KohPs Deoartment Store by W.H.
Moore - NWC of North Eagle Road and East Ustick Road:
Wardle: Item No. 15. I will open the Public Hearing on V AR 05-021.
Rountree: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I'm going to recuse myself on this item.
Wardle: Okay. Thank you. For the record, note that Councilman Rountree has
recused himself. After that recusal, I will, again, open the Public Hearing on the request
for variance for Kohl's Department Store and begin with staff comments.
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 13 of 33
Canning: President Wardle, Members of the Council, this is the Kohl's Department
Store project. It's located at the northwest corner of Eagle and Ustick Road. Right
there. And it is all these properties here. The application that's before you tonight is
just the variance application. The applicant is seeking a variance from the Unified
Development Code provisions restricting access to the state highway, Eagle Road in
this case. The city adopted these provisions just recently and they were largely in
response to ITO's -- did not appear to have the authority to restrict access points to the
extent that the city did and that was one of the driving forces behind those -- that article
specifically dedicated to development along state highways. The variance application
pertains to the full 58 acres, even though the Kohl's Department Store is only on a
portion of that. So, it really pertains to the Center Point Marketplace development. And
that was annexed under the name Blue Marlin, you may remember. In the staff report
Mr. Hawkins-Clark went through a number of documents related to this variance
application and I'm just going to hit a few of those. One of them was the Unified
Development Code and the purpose statement that the -- it is to limit access points to
state highways in order to maintain traffic flow and provide better circulation and safety
within the community and for the traveling public. And, then, more specifically that
access points would be only allowed at the section line road and the half mile mark
between section line roads and that these half mile connecting streets would be
collector roads. There is an existing development agreement that was done when Blue
Marlin was approved, now Center Point Marketplace, and there are a few specific
paragraphs on that that are worthy of noting. Paragraph 4.1 does cite the
Comprehensive Plan policies that pertain to the mixed use regional designation and
those policies strongly discourage direct access to Eagle Road and/or other arterials in
Meridian. Then, paragraph 5.A.3 states that any future plan shall show a continuous
public or private road system that goes from Ustick Road north and may connect to the
north boundary and may also connect to Eagle Road if allowed by lTD. And the
applicant has brought this up as signifying that the access point was approved. Staff
does want to point out that this does say may. We do concur that this opens the door
for a potential access, but it is not a given. It does say may and staff still believes that
ITD's recent approval of the three access permits is in potential conflict with this one
and the following one where it talks about a single access point or seems to imply a
single access point. And that second item is paragraph 5.F.2, which was ITD's
conditions and those ITD conditions stated that access to principal arterial type four will
be intersections only, spaced at one half mile intervals in urban areas. Approaches
other than intersections may be permitted in special cases on a temporary basis as
follows -- and they would be allowed until the state highway is improved by construction
projects, at which time an access will be provided to the property, which may not directly
access the state highway system, but maybe be a frontage road or back-age road and
that's the collector road that we were talking about before. And, then, temporary
accessory restrictions will be noted on the permit. So, they did imply that it would be --
or that the latest -- the letter stated that they would be temporary access. The other
document I wanted to go over was the Eagle Road arterial study. This was endorsed by
the City Council and ACHD commission. The study does include the following
recommendations. One would be that the paragraph 3.11 was the center median will
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 14 of 33
be continued is over the length of the corner -- corridor. Breaks in the median will be
provided at appropriate quarter mile spacing, but final determination of location of the
median breaks should be flexible enough to accommodate reasonable access to
existing development on parcels. The point there is the quarter mile spacing on that
issue. And, then, paragraph 3.2.6, the existing circulation network within and between
existing developed parcels should be reconfigured to reduce the number of access
points to Eagle Road and to allow more local trips to be made without the need for
travel on Eagle Road. This concept should be incorporated in the municipal planning
and zoning policies. And this is, again, why we were asking for the back-age road and
it's really our hope that there is connection to Wainwright. We fear that if there is too
many access points allowed directly to Eagle Road, that we will never get the
connection to Wainwright, which is the half mile road, which would be the preferred
location for that traffic to get out onto Eagle Road. The last thing I wanted to talk about
was the ITO open permits on State Highway 55 and, you know, I have spent --
obviously, spent more time on this than I usually do on a staff report, but part of that is
there are a lot of applications coming down the pike that I think it's important that the
City Council, once a precedent is -- even though variances aren't supposed to set a
precedent, obviously, there is a number of developers looking at what happens tonight
to see what they will be able to get on their property and I wanted to point some of those
out for you. The ones that are shown in yellow triangles are ones that have been
granted by ITO, so that the ones you see tonight are shown in yellow, even though ITO
has granted them, that's the question before the city tonight. These are all open
applications and, then, these are, again, granted or existing permits. And, then, this
purple one is not an active application. That's the Kleiner property. In discussions with
the realtor for that, he's started talking with ITO, he has not filed a permit at this time, but
it's a very likely location. And this is just the mile and a half between Fairview and
Wainwright. So, you begin to see the number of access requests and already approved
access points along there. Okay. The next thing I wanted to talk about was the actual
memorandum from ITD regarding Center Point Marketplace and although they granted
the permit, there is some interesting language in there. It talks about state highways
that -- that a key element -- they are a key element in preserving a roadway's mobility
function and managing access to a facility and they are supposed to provide a high
degree of mobility and serve longer trips and since movement, not access, is their
principal function, access management is an essential tool to preserve capacity and
safety. And, then, new access points, whether signalized or not signalized, reduce
capacity, increases crashes, increases motorist delay and reduced speed. The facility
becomes congested with numerous conflicts and crashes, lowers the level of service,
increases cost for motorists, and creates more demand for capital improvements.
Finally, we get to the various findings, which is what is really before you tonight. There
are three findings. The first is that variance shall not grant a right or special privilege
that is not otherwise allowed in the district. Staff feels that if City Council grants the
three access points to Eagle Road, it would grant a right that is currently prohibited for
all new development adjacent to state highways. The Olsen property to the north -- the
staff report findings point out some cross-access opportunities going up to the north and
that there is, really, only one missing connection to Wainwright at this time. The second
finding for the variance.. is that the variance relieves an undue hardship because of
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 15 of 33
characteristics of the site. There is no physical characteristic on this site which
demands access points be constructed to Eagle Road. It does have 1,200 feet of
unobstructed access to Ustick Road. And the third variance finding is that it shall not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare. It's pretty clear from the ITD letter
and from other letters that the more access points you allow on the state highway, the
more potential there is for accidents there. Now, the staff report also notes there are a
considerable number of accidents or crashes within the city that occur along Eagle
Road corridor. And the staff report did point out that they recommended that Meridian
fire and police departments provide further testimony on the issue. I'm not sure if Brad
actually talked to them about that or if they are prepared to do that tonight, but that was
raised in the staff report. So, with that I will end my presentation.
Wardle: Thank you, Anna. For clarification, staff report indicates Findings for denial of
this application. Were the Council to consider a motion for approval, they would need to
send Findings back to revision; is that correct?
Canning: Yes, sir.
Wardle: I'm going to ask real quickly if the chief has any additional comment, seeing
how he was mentioned in the original staff report. Chief Musser.
Musser: President Wardle, excuse me, Members of the Council, I would -- excuse me
tonight. I would have to concur with Planning's recommendation to this point. To open
up additional accesses along this arterial at this point just begs for the increase in
collisions to occur. As we have collisions occur it does back up the traffic, it creates
more of a havoc for the motoring public, especially at three distinct times of day, the
morning, the afternoon, and, then, the early evening. Additionally, I guess from lessons
learned, we can look to Boise City and the access that they had with certain residential
areas up on the northern end of Eagle Road as it approaches Chinden, which did force
a traffic light due to a single fatality that brought up a lot of concern and I guess the
questions, ultimately, I would pose is the same that you have to respond to the public
with is how many lives does it take for us to learn a lesson to be able to move forward
with the potential for cross-traffic and accesses on multi-lane roadways like this,
especially where the speeds exceed 35 miles per hour. In this case they are still at 50.
So, my recommendation from the police department would be to limit the accesses as
much as possible and follow the recommendations at this point. Thank you.
Wardle: Thank you, chief. Would the applicant, please, come forward? And, Mr. Seel,
if you will, please, state your name and address for the record.
Seel: Certainly. Good evening. Jonathan Seel with W.H. Moore Company, 1940
Bonito, Meridian. Is this on Powerpoint, Anna? I was told --
Canning: Yes, sir, it is.
Seel: Could you --
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 16 of33
Canning: There is it. North is right headed, so that north is heading toward the right of
the room.
Seel: To give you a very quick bearing, this would be Eagle Road and there is Ustick.
This is the northwest corner. I think Anna has probably addressed most of the things
from the staff report. As she mentioned, what we are asking for today is a variance that
would allow for the three access points. This is right-in, right-out only. This is a full
access. It lines up with Bald Cyprus. You can see over here at the Lowe's where they
line up with their driveways across the road. And this is a right-in, right-out only also.
I'd like to first give you a little bit of history on this project. Back in the fall of last year we
were approached by Kohl's Department Store, as well as we had interest from other
retailers with respect to this project at the northwest corner, which we refer to as Center
Point Marketplace. At that time, based on some of their criteria, with what they were
looking for -- we met with ITD starting in December of '04 and at that point we started
discussing access points. The feedback from them was -- I'll call it encouraging. They
didn't say yes, but they didn't say no. We had numerous meetings with them
afterwards. In fact, we had one meeting with lTD. We had one meeting with the City of
Meridian, which included the Mayor, Council Members. Anna was there. And also
ACHD senior people. During the course of this last year ITD asked us to do a traffic
study, which Stanley Consultants, Gary Funkhouser, did. During that study he -- ITD
asked for what amounted to about 19 different versions to look at for this whole area to
take into account. I, obviously, don't expect you to read this, but this is the traffic study
that was completed. We submitted this to ITD in September of this year. They sent us
a letter which stated that they had approved the three access points and I believe you
have a copy of that letter. It was submitted today. The part that, I guess, that I'm -- I'm
bringing that up is because I think as Councilman Rountree -- I know he's recused
himself, but I think he can certainly attest -- getting access points in Eagle Road is --
takes a little bit of work. We have spent the last year doing this. During this time ITD
has spent a great deal of time and we spent a great deal of time and money
substantiating to them that -- that we feel that there is a -- I guess you would say safety
-- that it's safe in order to put these three access points in and they agreed with us on
this. This is not based on just some preliminary information. It's certainly not based on
flying blind. We have spent probably six or eight or ten meetings with them over the
course of the last year. It's taken literally almost a year to get to this point. So, r bring
this up, because I feel that if ITD feels that it's safe to put these access points here,
then, that should give, r would believe, the City of Meridian some comfort in this
process. The other thing that I wanted to pass out here -- and I think this will address a
little bit of Anna's concerns. Okay. If you look at this map, you will see over there -- you
will see a future back-age road. You will see an area around it that's, I guess -- I don't
know what you call that. Purple. That's our property. Again, you will see Lowe's across
the street. We met with ACHD. We had a tech review last Friday. At the tech review
we have agreed -- and as we agreed in the development agreement -- that we would
construct a back-age road -- and it's shown here on this, but it does continue right here.
Now, keep in mind, this is a preliminary location. This may alter east or west somewhat,
depending on the thing, but as you will notice on your site plans, where it goes to our
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 17 of 33
north property line, that's where ACHD wants it to tie in and you will see where it
ultimately comes up to Wainwright. We are prepared to put this in. This will be a public
road. It will be 40 feet back from back of curb to back of curb, plus sidewalk, plus ten
feet of landscaping on either side of it. That crosses that, but the land and the
improvements will be well over a million dollars when it's complete. But we have agreed
with ACHD -- and Gary Inselman is here, he could certainly attest to that -- that we will
be putting this in as we develop this thing. Right now from our point to Wainwright,
there is a small section up here that I'll call a cul-de-sac -- the balance of that land has
not been purchased and as far as timing goes, it's unclear. But, again, once that's put
in we will connect to it. So, hopefully, that addresses staff's concerns that we are not
trying to avoid a back-age road. The other thing I might bring out -- and I think,
hopefully, everybody's been able to test it out -- last Friday we opened up Ustick, both
east and west of Eagle Road. This is seven lanes at this intersection going down to five
lanes and, then, tapering down. Between Winston Moore and Dave Turnbull, they
spent over a million eight hundred thousand dollars on that and we opened up last
Friday. Obviously, we will get that money back through impact fees, but we don't know
when. But the point that I bring up for both these things is that I think Mr. Moore is
willing to do the things to I think enhance traffic or travel off side the Eagle Road corridor
where we can do that. So, we are trying to make that possible. Another thing that I
think I would like to bring up at least at this point is that when we had a meeting last
week with -- or last month with the Mayor, with Anna, with Bill Nary, Mr. Nary made a
comment at that point about how we could get -- I guess, basically, how we could -- I'm
struggling for the word. Mr. Nary, you can help me out here, but as far as the variance -
- in other words, essentially, we had submitted this concept plan well in advance of the
new Unified Development Code and I talked to Mr. Nary today, so everyone
understands that I'm not blindsiding him, and ask him if he could articulate that tonight,
what he said in front of the Mayor, in front of Anna, and everyone else at that meeting.
So, if you would, Mr. Nary.
Nary: Mr. President, Members of the Council, do you want me to do that now or do you
want to have him finish his presentation or--
Seel: I'd like you to do it now.
Nary: It's up to you.
Wardle: Council?
Bird: Don't matter to me one way or the other. Whatever the applicant wants, as far as
I'm concerned.
Wardle: Mr. Nary, Go ahead.
Nary: Mr. President, Members of the Council, we had a meeting with Mr. Seal, Mr.
Moore, planning staff, the Clerk, the Mayor. Certainly, if the Council wants to consider
on that particular point, that is one of the applicant's arguments as to why they should
Meridian City Council
November 1,2005
Page 18 of33
have this variance, is that at the time this project was considered or the land was
annexed into the city, there was discussion -- but I think Mr. Hawkins-Clark also
mentions that in the staff report, that there was some language in the development
agreement that tends to support their point that there was consideration about access to
Eagle Road and how that access might be accomplished, but nothing more specific
than that. So, they don't have a grandfather right, necessarily, because they didn't have
specific access or a specific layout or a specific design in mind at the time it was
annexed, but it certainly was considered by this Council at the time of annexation that
they would be requesting something of this nature at the time. So, you can certainly -- if
that's a distinguishing point to you in relation to other future projects, then, one of the
considerations you have to make in the variance is whether or not this is granting some
special right and, as the staff report indicates and Mrs. Canning's staff report indicated,
obviously, there is a concern about the other properties, along with this property, that
are in the adjacent areas that would be seeking access to Eagle Road as well. If that
point is distinguishing to you why this project might be different, it might be under your
consideration to grant this variance, that's certainly your way to do that if you wish. Is
there any other question about that particular point?
Seel: Okay. Thank you. Continuing on. Another thing that I think was brought up in
the staff report and it's probably not terribly clear, but, again, if you look here, you will
see what ITD plans as far as Eagle Road. These kind of colored lines along here, the
median strips, are what they intend to do. Within our project, within '08 or '09, they plan
to do median strips along this area. So, ultimately, in either '08 or '09 this will be,
potentially, a left-in only. So, again, I think that, hopefully, addresses some of the
concerns of the long term. They talked about in the staff about permanent versus
temporary. I guess I would say that this is probably a temporary full access point at this
point, so -- and, then, finally, I just -- for I guess what it's worth, you know, we have a
letter here from the Mayor back on August 15th and I believe you have a copy of this. It
mentioned it in the staff report. That's my only copy. I'll give it to you. But on page two
you will note in there that it will say in there that -- to paraphrase, that if ITD approves
this project and the access points that she -- that the Mayor will support it. So, again,
we have had some indications along the way that we believe that we will be supportive
and this was mentioned in the staff report. Don't believe the letter itself was actually
attached, but it was put in there. I guess in closing I was going to talk a little bit about
Kohl's, but I know Cheryl Brown is, so I won't steal her thunder, but I guess I would just
simply say that we -- we would strongly encourage the Council -- I understand what
you're faced with today I but I would strongly encourage your Council -- and I hope we
have provided some mitigating circumstances to approve this. Without this project,
even though I guess that's not a technical concern for you, the Kohl's project will go
away and with it everything else that we have been working on. So, with that I would be
glad to answer any questions that you might have.
Wardle: Thank you.

Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Jonathan, tell me -- now, the one is a right-in, right-out? The first one off of -- first
north of -- that one.
Seel: This is a right-in, right-out.
Bird: What's the next one? What's the next one?
Seel: This is a full access. This lines up with Bald Cyprus, which is the street--
Bird: It's full access?
Seel: Full access. And, then, this is a right-in, right-out. And this is the Olsen property
that we talked about as far as access. I'm not sure how we would get access over here.
Like I say, ACHD's intention is to have access here from a back-age road. This back-
age road will, basically, go like that.
Bird: Well, I'm not sure Olsen is in our city anyway.
Seel: He's in Boise.
Bird: He's in Boise.
Seel: Yes.

development contractor, I'd like to state the positive, the Kohl's does have -- and will
add to the economy in Meridian. They are going to bring an estimated 100,000 dollars
in property tax revenue to Meridian, just Kohl's alone. They are going to add 150 new
jobs to this area. Currently, there is not a Kohl's in Idaho. By having this store in
Meridian, it will add to the variety of choices that we can offer to our citizens. Major
retailers are currently looking to locate next to Kohl's. With Kohl's being the anchor
tenant, this will draw new businesses that will offer a wider variety and more
opportunities to Meridian. I believe I can target the higher end retailers to this area if
Kohl's is anchored here. W.H. Moore projects are up scale and they have all the right
ingredients that these high end companies are looking for. This project is going to
impact our city by adding revenue, job creations, and offering our city an opportunity
that no one in the state currently has. Kohl's is a very active corporation that contributes
to kids and provides youth programs. Last year they put 20 million dollars back into the
community across the country and J feel they will be a very active part of our city for our
City of Meridian. Kohl's, being only eight acres of a 58 acre parcel, this will generate a
significant amount of additional jobs, revenue, services, and amenities for the City of
Meridian. Do you have any questions for me that I can answer for Kohl's, on behalf of
Kohl's, on behalf of the economy for Meridian?
Wardle: Council, any questions for Mrs. Brown?
Bird: I have none.
Brown: Thank you.
Wardle: Thank you. Is there anyone else?
Moore: My name is Winston Moore. I reside at 11665 Thomas Drive in Boise.
Members of the Council, I'm not here tonight to hang my hat on Kohl's. Kohl's would be
a tremendous asset to the community, but I don't -- to me, that's not the crux of the
matter tonight. The staff has given you every reason in the world and then some, as I
read that report, to refuse and deny our request tonight. I think if the decision is made
purely on technical, legal, staff data, I don't think I have a prayer of your granting the
request. I'd like to approach it from a different angle. This is -- this is a very very
significant and substantial matter, when you preclude access from a major highway and
something in my mind, having been in business for 55 years, something of that
significance should not be retroactive. You put us in a position where for four years we
have been encouraged by, essentially, everyone in city government to proceed with this
project, going clear back to Mayor Corrie and we have had numerous numerous
hearings and meetings and all kinds of accolades and congratulations and at no time, to
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 21 of 33
my knowledge -- I'm not as close to this as Jonathan is, but at no time to my knowledge
has anyone said to us -- until I found out on the 12th of September -- that, by the way,
all those marketing materials you have had based on your approvals and meetings over
the years, are no longer valid, because all those accesses are going to be taken away.
You can't respectfully -- I'm not -- please, everything I say I mean with great respect.
You cannot put a businessman -- a business person in that position, where you,
essentially, cause him to go to the marketplace with some very strong national retailers
and restaurants and others who are not here, and make commitments and -- about
access and traffic and so on, and, then, pull the carpet out from under him. When the
retailers look at an area, they are interested primarily in two things. I mean a lot beyond
that, but they like to talk about roof tops, which are aerial photographs showing the
residences within a mile and three miles and five miles and access. Access is one of
the first things on their mind. And so we, obviously, address that in order to make
progress, which we have done here. This is -- I feel I have been blind-sided on this.
This is -- the first I heard of it was on the 12th of September and one of our engineering
firms sent me a memo that reads as follows: This is a copy of a statement that one of
my other clients sent me. I met with the Meridian city planning department today. Anna
Borchers-Canning, the planning director, wanted to make sure we knew that the
Meridian City Council has decided to take a very strong stand regarding access onto
Eagle Road. That is the way it should be done. In my opinion, when a new project
comes -- if we.. were coming to you today with a new project, you know, we wouldn't be
having this meeting. Over the years we have been aware of all the conditions, all the
zoning, all the ordinances and so on. We live with those. We analyze it to see if we can
make a project work. If we can we proceed. If we cannot, obviously, we don't. Anna
did exactly the right thing there. Somebody came in with a new development and she
warned them. She said, you know, you just -- beware you're not going to have any
access or limited access, whatever it is. As a result of that e-mail that I had, I contacted
the Mayor and she was kind enough to reply bye-mail and she says, Winston, this
should not affect the project that you have been working on, as it began the process
before this was adopted, nor is your project affected by the Council's endorsement of
the results of the Idaho 55 Eagle Road Arterial Study workshop and recommendation
that the Idaho Transportation Department implement their recommendations of the final
report. And she goes on to say: The city will support the results of the committee's
review and the results of the committee's review is the letter that I believe you have a
copy of where ITD grants us the three access points. I contacted one or more of the
City Council people to just see, really -- to validate what was happening. This says:
Winston, what we passed won't affect your project. It has already been approved. We
have left these decisions up to the ITD people.
Wardle: Mr. Moore, if I could have you just, please, summarize your statements.
Moore: You want me to finish?
Wardle: Please.
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 22 of 33
Moore: Again, I think what you have before you is almost a matter of right and wrong,
of ethics and scruples and fairness and how you treat the business community when
they come before you. I think this is a special circumstance. Certainly not because it's
myself, but because this has been going on for a long time, it's not a new project, and I
don't feel that it's fair at all to make it retroactive to this project. Questions?
Wardle: Thank you, Mr. Moore. Questions, Council?
Bird: I have none.
Donnell: No.
Wardle: Thank you very much. This is a Public Hearing. Is there anyone else that
would wish to testify on this application? Mr. Seel, short rebuttal, if you would like.
Seel: Jonathan See!. I really have nothing to add, other than I think it just underscores
the point that, hopefully, that Council understands that this process was started well in
advance and I think it would give you, hopefully, the opportunity to view this different
than the ones that are coming in, in the future, which I can appreciate the dilemma here,
so with that, unless there is any questions, I will sit down.
Wardle: Thank you.
Seel: Thank you.
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: While we are still in Public Hearing I will make a couple little statements.
Wardle: Okay.
Bird: First of all, we are not granting anything new along Eagle Road. The frontage
road is a great idea, which we looked at about eight or nine years ago, and it wasn't
adopted. ITD is the ones that run that road and I have to go off of theirs. I believe if you
look at the Ada County Sheriff's Department, I think most of the wrecks are between
Franklin and -- well, the freeway and Fairview Avenue, where we have got about every
eighth mile an on and off and they are not right-ins, right-outs, they are both. This
project has been in the works a long time before we did this. I have had the privilege
and I think Mrs. Canning and everybody else has sat in on projects with ITD and ACHD
regarding different projects and one of them being this and never was mentioned that
who was doing it. I realize that we adopted the corridor thing, but it was also, like the
UDC that we adopted, it was to come afterwards. It did not hinder previous projects or
projects in the works. So, while I don't like a lot of in and outs, I also want to see a lot of
nice business come and I believe that's what it takes. I believe lTD knows what they
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 23 of 33
are doing on the state highways, much more than I do. So, I have got to support this
and will support it
Wardle: Thank you, Mr. Bird. Any further comments, Council? No? Okay. Hearing
no further testimony, I would entertain a motion to close the Public Hearing.
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: j move we close the Public Hearing on VAR 05-021.
Donnell: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to close the Public Hearing on Item No.5. All
in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSTAIN.
Wardle: Council, just to reiterate, the Findings we have in front of us are for denial of
this application. If the Council would choose to move something other than denial, an
approval, we would need new Findings to come back from the staff.
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I would move that we approve V AR 05-021 and to bring back next week new
Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law showing this in a favorable position.
Donnell: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded. For clarification, Mr. Bird, staff is asking for
two weeks for the Findings.
Bird: That's okay on the Findings.
Wardle: Does the second agree?
Donnell: Agreed.
Bird: Yeah. That will be fine.
Wardle: It has been moved and seconded to approve Item 15, V AR 05-021, and to
bring back Findings in the affirmative. Point of clarification and discussion, Mr. Bird.
Meridian City Council
November 1 , 2005
Page 24 of 33
You did mention in your testimony that you were working off an approval from lTD. Are
you wishing that --
Bird: That would be part of the Findings that become public testimony. And their
findings was -- was allowing that. Now, what the right-in, right-out, whatever, that's
between them and the developer. It has nothing to do with us.
Wardle: Okay. Mr. Nary, did you have a question?
Nary: Mr. President, Members of the Council, you know how sticky I am about these
variances. Just to make sure that we are covered, if you could articulate your reasons
for that -- I think what I heard Mr. Bird say was this project, because it was previously
annexed into the city, is that your reason for why the variance is appropriate for this and
so that it's not necessarily every property along Eagle Road, because this was
previously annexed and that was part of the development agreement --
Bird: I think I stated in my motion -- or in my statement while we were still in public
testimony that this project had been before the other stuff was adopted -- had been
brought before it. To my knowledge no other project was brought through. To my
knowledge Kleiners hadn't come through, Smith-Hawkins, just to throw the -- Olsens or
them out, have not come through, so, no, they are not included. We will look at them on
an individual basis.
Nary: And the only reason I asked for clarification, Mr. Bird, Sadie Creek to the south
on Eagle and Ustick was annexed into the city, doesn't have a project before you
currently and that's the one I guess I'm concerned with. If that's your reasoning, that's
fine. We just want to make sure that it's clear.
Bird: That's is my reasoning.
Nary: Oh, there is an application.
Bird: To my knowledge I have not seen anything on Sadie Creek.
Wardle: And thank you, Mr. Nary. If I can just clarify the motion further. As I
understood it from Mr. Bird, that the variance be approved based on prior commitment
through an annexation and conditional use and to incorporate the comments from the
Idaho Transportation Department in a letter dated --
Bird: September 20th, I think it is.
Wardle: September 29th, 2005. Is that how the second --
Donnell: Yes.
Wardle: Okay. Thank you very much. Mr. Berg, will you, please, call roll.

Item 14:
Public Hearing: PP 05~044 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 60
single-family residential building lots and 4 common area lots on 23.9
acres in a R-4 zone for Bridaetower Crossinq Subdivision No. 14 by
Primeland Development, LLP - north of West Ustick Road and west of
North Linder Road:
Wardle: Thank you. Is the applicant present for Item 14?
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Anna, with -- Becky's usually pretty clean. I mean is there any problems that --
the reason she wanted to be here or something? Or had to be here? Or did we have
any -- did you have any problems?
Canning: No, sir. Actually, it was one of the cleanest applications -- well, I feel
comfortable going forward.
Bird: Let's go.
Canning: It's up to Council.
Bird: I'm for going, if the rest of the Council -- Mr. President, if you are, I am.
Rountree: I'm okay. If there is any questions I guess we can hold it. But if it's --
Canning: That would be my only concern.
Rountree: If it's straight forward, we can act on it.
Canning: Or if there is public testimony in opposition, I would certainly think that you
would need to continue it. Okay. Just give me just a second.
Wardle: Council, while Anna's doing that, I will open Item 14, PP 05-044, preliminary
plat for Bridgetower Crossing Subdivision No. 14 and begin by taking staff comments.
Canning: Mr. President, Members of the Council, thank you. I just lost my notes. This
is Bridgetower Crossing No. 14, as you said. It's north of Ustick and west of Linder.
The area is highlighted in the circle there. It's within the -- about the center of the
Bridgetower development. They are proposing 60 single-family residences and four
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 26 of 33
common lots on 23.9 acres in an R-4 zone. The subject property was originally part of
Bridgetower Crossing, which received annexation and planned development approval in
2002. There were a total of 692 single-family lots, 59 townhome lots, 17 office lots, ten
commercial lots, and 58 common lots on 370 acres. So, it's, obviously, a larger project.
The property received additional preliminary plat approval in 2003 as Bridgetower
Crossing East and that was -- had 439 single family lots and 50 common lots on 209
acres. This area was originally approved for very large single-family lots in this kind of
urban setting. The applicant has submitted a new preliminary plat that adds 11
additional lots, but these are still relatively large lots, generally exceeding 11,000 square
feet in size. The gross residential density is 2.51 units per acre. And the Planning and
Zoning Commission did recommend approval at their October 6th hearing. The key
issue of discussion was amount of open space proposed in the subdivision and we had
this -- this issue -- and this was originally part of a larger planned development where
the open space was provided elsewhere, but this application, because it came in on its
own, had to kind of stand on its own. The open space that's provided is an existing
cemetery, surrounded by sand bottom storm water detention basin, so there was a
question as to whether that should apply toward the open space. But, again, this was
originally approved as part of a larger project. To our knowledge, there are no
outstanding issues, except for the amount of open space, with regard to this project.
And I will take any questions you might have.
Wardle: Thank you, Anna. Questions for staff, Council?
Donnell: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: So, Anna, without the cemetery being included in that open space
requirement, do they not meet the requirement?
Canning: As you look at your staff report, the original condition that was proposed to
the Planning and Zoning Commission that the applicant bring it up to five percent is
struck out. So, I think that the Planning and Zoning Commission made the
interpretation that the plat did meet the five percent with the cemetery lot and with the
ties to the other planned development, which exceeded the five percent open space.
Donnell: Sure. Thank you.
Wardle: Thank you. Further questions for staff?
Donnell: No.
Wardle: Okay. Is there anyone that would like to testify on this application? Council,
we don't have an applicant present at this point. Staff has made their presentation.
There is no additional public comment.
Meridian City Council

Canning: Mr. President?
Wardle: Anna.
Canning: Mr. President, Members of the Council, if I might make a suggestion. If you
were to approve it, but not approve the Findings tonight, you do have Findings. If you
were to wait a week to approve the Findings, that would give the applicant the
opportunity to request reconsideration of the Findings if she had a concern about one of
the Findings.
Donnell: Okay.
Canning: I think would work.
Rountree: Or just hold it up for a week.
Bird: Or we could just hold the public hearing open for a week, can't we, Anna? Which
would you prefer?
Rountree: Same difference.
Canning: It's the same difference, so you might as well do that, then, she doesn't have
to request reconsideration.
Bird: With that, Mr. President, I would move we continue the Public Hearing for PP 05-
044 to November 9th, 2005.
Rountree: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to continue Item No. 14 to November 9th, which
is Wednesday. All those in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Canning; Should I direct the applicant -- I'm sorry. Mr. President, Members of the
Council, should I direct the applicant that that's only for the purpose of them objecting to
modifying conditions of approval?
Donnell: Uh-huh.
Bird: Yeah.
Wardle: Yes, please.
Canning: Okay.

Item 16:
Ordinance No, 05~1198 Request for Annexation and Zoning
of .56 acres from R6 to L-O zone for West Carol Street Professional
Center by James and Carrie Jewett - 1560 Carol Street
Wardle: Item No. 16 is Ordinance No. 05-1198. Mr. Clerk, will you, please, read this
ordinance by title only.
Berg: Thank you, Mr. Present, Members of the Council. An Ordinance for annexation
of property located in part of Lot B, Block 4, of Doris Subdivision, located in the
northeast quarter of Section 6, Township 3 North, Range 1 East, Boise Meridian, Ada
County, Idaho, as described in Attachment A and annexing certain lands and territory
situated in Ada County, Idaho, and adjacent and contiguous to the corporate city limits
of the City of Meridian as requested by the City of Meridian, establishing and
determining the land use zoning classification of said lands from R-6, Ada County, L-O,
Limited Office District, in the Meridian City Code, providing that copies of this ordinance
shall be filed with the Ada County assessor, the Ada County recorder, and the Idaho
State Tax Commission as required by law and providing for a summary of the ordinance
and providing for a waiver of the reading of the rules and providing an effective date.
Wardle: Thank you, Mr. Clerk. You have heard this ordinance read by title only. Is
there anyone that would wish to hear it read in its entirety? Seeing none, Council?
Donnell: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I'd like to make a motion that we approve Ordinance No. 05-119B, AZ 05-032
request for -- I'm sorry. What?
Wardle: With suspension of rules.
Donnell: With suspension of rules.
Rountree: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to approve Item 16 with suspension of rules.
Mr. Clerk, will you, please, call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Wardle: Thank you, Council.
Bird: Mr. President?
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 29 of 33
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Before we have an adjournment -- and maybe you're going into this, but we need
to decide are we going to have a meeting between Christmas and New Years, the 27th?
I think most years we have always cancelled on that. We need to let staff and other
people know now.
Wardle: Council, it would be my preference to have that Tuesday off.
Bird: That would be my preference, too.
Wardle: We have much work to do in the City of Meridian, but every now and again I
think that, especially in the holidays, staff members schedule vacations around that
time. So, that would be my preference, Council.
Bird: Mine, too.
Wardle: Unless I hear an objection, I would direct --
Rountree: So moved.
Wardle: -- to -- thank you.
Bird: Also, Mr. President, I have been asked to -- AspireOn needs to meet with us in
mid December for about an hour and a half to two hours. Do you want to do that at a
pre-council, come in at 5:00, like say on the 13th?
Wardle: Mr. Bird, a question I have is what would be the nature of the meeting with
AspireOn?
Bird: Ask Mr. Clerk. He's the one that's bringing the message from the Mayor. I'm
just --
Rountree: You're just a bearer of--
Bird: I just the bearer of good news.
Berg: And don't shoot the messenger.
Wardle: You're closest.
Berg: Thank you. Mr. President, Members of the Council, I think the intention was to
update you with what AspireOn is doing, and also to talk about the function of the City
Council with the rest of the city staff and if Mr. Nary, who is more intertwined with the
AspireOn work, he might have something else to add.
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 30 of 33
Wardle: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Mr. President, Members of the Council. Mr. Berg is correct. Part of the
discussion, I think, is so that you, as the Council, can see the interaction that AspireOn
has, but, really, it is to talk about the relationship of the Council with the staff and how
the alignment of the city's strategic plan, the behavioral model that we adopted through
you, the position accountability definitions that we have created for staff and directors
and the Mayor and all the different departments of the city and how the Council's
relationship is to all of those things, so that you, as the Council, can see the whole
picture of that and see the role that Council plays in how those are accomplished. So, it
is a real working workshop is what's intended, it's not just a report, it's really an
interactive workshop discussion about those things, so --
Wardle: Thank you, Mr. Nary. Council, it sounds like a workshop discussion. Anybody
have any objection to December 13th?
Bird: I don't. That's something you can decide when you set the agenda, whenever you
feel up to it.
Rountree: A pre-council meeting, if you want to do it.
Wardle: We will set that at a pre-council agenda for the 13th, Mr. Clerk, and invite any
of those who mayor may not have been elected to a position for 2006.
Bird: Yeah. The new ones can come. And he can buy lunch, too. Or, no, the
president buys lunch, right?
Wardle: That would be January. Supper.
Rountree: Something other than pizza.
Bird: Yeah. Goodwood would be fine. Also, Mr. President, we are having Comp Plan
amendments and it seems like they are getting ran through without -- and it's probably
just because I'm the slowest one around here. I would like -- I'd like these to be
discussed in a pre-councilor something before we are -- they are shoved to us to
change and I'd like to have a week or so to look at them. Sometimes if we hurry these,
we are going to make a mistake.
Wardle: Mr. Bird, if I may just comment on the Comprehensive Plan amendments. I
believe the Planning and Zoning Commission considered four of those, have made -- is
that correct, Mr. Nary? They have made recommendations. Staff asked for direction.
My direction was that there are specific Comp Plan amendments which are coming
forward with specific projects. My understanding of the statute is that the Planning and
Zoning Commission can only hear and comment on Comp Plan amendments every six
months. However, the City Council can take action and approve or deny those
amendments whenever they choose. And so for the virtue of hearing all of those at the
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 31 of 33
same time, I have asked staff to bring those forward with an active application. If you'd
like to see something different, certainly, let me know.
Bird: Well, I just -- Mr. President, excuse me, I just want to make sure that we have
time to look it over and make sure that we are doing what's best for the community.
And sometimes we get in a hurry and we don't do what's best, so --
Canning: Sir?
Bird: And I'm as guilty as the next guy.
Wardle: Anna.
Canning: Two issues. One, I didn't understand what you meant about bringing them
forward with an active application.
Wardle: As the clerk's office and I and the city attorney's office talked in our agenda
meeting, it appears that the two most pressing of these issues are also tied to specific
land use applications; is that correct?
Canning: Let me just back up a little bit and tell you about the four applications that are
headed your way. One is a text amendment, which can come to you anytime. It's not a
map amendment. So, they -- that doesn't have the same kind of restrictions placed
upon it. One is the north Meridian area plan. That is a very large, very complex project,
and I believe that Mr. Hawkins-Clark wanted to be able to have a workshop with you.
Whether it needed to be a Public Hearing or not, we haven't really discussed, but I do
believe he wanted to do a workshop style with you on that issue. The other two
applications, the Planning and Zoning Commission made a rather unusual
recommendation and that was to recommend approval, but they asked that the Council
not hear those applications until the accompanying development applications came
before you and I think that that's what you're referring to. So, if that's the Council's
desire, then, those will just -- we can just put those on -- just table them to a date certain
and, then, we will just re-notice at that time, because they do need to submit a complete
new application. And I'm not completely sure that one of those applications will ever
happen. So, we would hope to move on the north Meridian area plan and the
downtown design guidelines, so --
Bird: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I would just lay it upon you and the clerk and Mr. Nary to bring it forward. All I
ask is just give us time that we won't -- they won't hit us and, then, we vote on them at
the same time and I think you three are very capable of doing that.
Wardle: Thank you. And I --
Meridian City Council
November 1, 2005
Page 32 of 33
Nary: Mr. President?
Wardle: Mr. Nary.
Nary: And just one more other -- a point of clarification from the process standpoint. As
Mrs. Canning stated, two of those applications have that somewhat unusual
recommendation, but you haven't approved that as your process you would like to
follow. So, what we would recommend is that at a point you will have to probably make
that decision formally on your agenda that that's your desire to wait until the project
comes forward and, then, set that off and, then, notice it up properly. But, obviously, we
didn't notice it up tonight, but you will have that decision to make, but, you're right, Mr.
Bird, you won't have that in one hearing to have to, then, make a decision, you will have
the opportunity to have that discussion and, as Mrs. Canning stated, Mr. Hawkins-
Clark felt one of those needed a workshop to discuss up front before you got to that, so
Bird: Okay. Before I make a motion to adjourn, I got one other thing. Okay. You got
the Vandal victory, which is -- I think was great. I root for them when they don't play
Boise State. But if you guys all will look in the Valley NewsTimes -- and I think it's next
to the last page, we have a person, that on the 5th, is turning a big five 0, one of our
employees.
Donnell: Who might that be?
Bird: Well, sitting down at the end of the table.
Wardle: Happy Birthday, Mr. Berg.
Bird: Charlie and Christine and I wish we were turning 50 this year.
Berg: You want to see it again, uh?
Rountree: One more time.
Bird: One more time.
Donnell: Then, again, Mr. President?
Wardle: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: We certainly want to encourage everyone to make sure that they vote in the
city election on November the 8th. At the appropriate precincts, for those that are still in
the audience and are of voting age.

Wardle: And, Mr. Berg, doesn't that mean that you usually age two years in an election
year; is that correct?
Berg: Seven.
Wardle: So, next Tuesday is Election Day. Please do your civic duty and vote. And we
will have our meeting on Wednesday, November 9th. With that, anything further,
Council?
Rountree: I move we adjourn.
Donnell: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to adjourn. All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.

AMENDMENT 1
SCOPE OF SERVICES
For
Geographic Information System (GIS) On-Call Services
For
THE CITY OF MERIDIAN
(Meridian Fiscal Year 2006)
BACKGROUND
The City of Meridian has made an investment in establishing a GIS available to City users over a local
area network. The City Planning and Zoning Department has been using limited desktop GIS to support
community planning activities and the Public Works Department has implemented a network GIS for
support of water and wastewater master planning, to enhance responsiveness to information requests by
the public, and to provide a common database of information from which others can access in the future.
In late 2002, the City of Meridian contracted with HDR Engineering, Inc. (HDR) to perform a Geographic
Information Systems Needs Assessment (Needs Assessment). The Needs Assessment helped the
Publlc Works Department understand the many ways in which a GIS could be used to support current
and future activities in the department. In 2004, the City amended the GIS Needs Assessment contract,
called Needs Assessment Phase 2, to purchase hardware and software, install these items, and train
staff on the use of GIS. In February 2005, the City contracted with HDR to provide a mechanism through
which City of Meridian Public Works and Information Technology staff can access the technical expertise
of HDR staff directly.
HDR has been applying GIS technology since the early 1990's and continues to deliver on projects that
have involved GIS technology in public works civil engineering and other disciplines. These projects have
included the utilization of GIS to support water distribution system, wastewater collection system, and
storm water conveyance system analysis and design, as well as assist in environmental analysis for water
resources and transportation planning.
The purpose of this amendment is to extend the scope of work of On-Call GIS Services through the City's
fiscal year 2006, beginning October 2005 and continuing through September 2006, and provide
programming services in September 2005. The purpose is to continue to provide a mechanism through
which City of Meridian Publlc Works and Information Technology staff can access the technical expertise
of HDR staff directly.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 1: On-Call GIS Services
Objective:
The objective of this task is to provide technical support to the City of Meridian Public Works Department
and Information Technology staff related to GIS activities. If additional support is requested during non-
holiday working hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, HDR is available to respond on an on-call time and
materials basis.
Activities:
· HDR will provide miscellaneous on-call support to answer questions from the City of Meridian
Public Works Department staff regarding the operation and uses of GIS.

Assumptions:
· Project management activities will be included in the labor rates billed by technical staff required
during task activities.
· On-Call GIS Services will be performed with either a written request for services via e-mail, fax, or
letter from the City of Meridian project manager, or by telephone or personal conversation from
the City of Meridian project manager.
· Services will only be performed once confirmation of requested services has been sent from HDR
staff to the City of Meridian project manager.
· The schedule to perform services will be negotiated at the time services are requested.
Deliverables:
· Status report describing the services provided in each invoicing period.
Task 2: Hydrant 10 Automation Tool
Objective:
Create a tool to automate the process of assigning the next available asset ID to new fire hydrant data
points within the existing fire hydrant geodatabase.
Activities:
· The tool will be a button to be placed on the City's existing ArcMap applications.
.. When the user runs the button, it will find the next available asset ID for the particular grid block
that the new fire hydrant has been placed into.
· The tool will then automatically assign that next ID to the new hydrant.
· The tool will not keep track of historical asset lOs, it will always find the next "highest" 10 number
to use.
· Each time the tool is run, it will assign an asset 10 to all fire hydrant structures that had previously
not been assigned an asset 10.
· The tool will also populate a "date/time" field within the fire hydrant geodatabase documenting the
time the tool assigned each fire hydrant an asset number.
Assumptions:
· HDR will be provided with the complete fire hydrant and grid datasets for use in testing the tool.
· The tool will be run periodically by the user to name new assets.
· The tool will not automatically run when new assets are placed into the dataset.
· Since code will be provided for manipulation by the City, there can be no warranty associated
with this tool.
· All maintenance, upgrades and bug fixes after the acceptance of the tool will be billed under Task
1, On-Call GIS Services, or negotiated in a future contract.
· This scope does not include data validation or clean up of fire hydrants that have already been
named (i.e. finding duplicate IDs.)
· The tool will be written in VBA for ArcMap 9.1.
· The manual will be a simple "cheat sheet" style user manual that will be 1-2 pages and would
have a step-by-step process for using the tool and would have a process flow diagram if
necessary. .
· The tool will not populate the date/time field for hydrants it did not number.
Deliverables:
· The source code for the tool
· A brief user manual.
· Up to 4 hours of training / general support.

Optional Tasks (not included in this scope of work): Application and Data Development
The tasks described below focus on the many uses of GIS in the Public Works arena. Potential areas
where a GIS database may be developed or where custom GIS applications could be created include:
· ArclMS - Internet based GIS mapping provides an opportunity for public agencies to provide
customer and rate payers ready access to information via the world wide web. The existing GIS
system could easily be adapted to offer external read-only access to select GIS databases for
customers to access remotely. The result would likely be a reduction in the amount of time that
is required for Public Works employees to provide customers, developers, and consultants with
requested information.
· GASB 34 Asset Management - GASS 24 is a new governmental accounting standard that directly
affects how state and local governments report assets. This may change how pavement
management or other infrastructure assets are documented and reported. This project requires
that the various utility networks be appropriately attributed and is dependent upon the completion of
other outsourced projects.
· Potable Water Quality Monitoring - The purpose of this task is to develop an application to
isolate potable water system contamination and notify residents also includes updating the potable
water system network. This data layer requires water network editing, including additions of new water
lines, revision of the accuracy of existing water lines, or updating other network features (e.g.,
valves, manholes, connectors). The project also requires that the water network be assigned
appropriate NETWORK route system functionality, so that the potable water contamination
notification application can determine which valves seNe as "stops" around the location of a
detected contamination point or break. HDR will assist the City in establishing requirements for
the application, identifying appropriate software, and implementing that software, including any
necessary customization. Because the Sanitary Sewer Overflow Reporting application requires
the potable water network as an input, the potable water layer must be updated first, making this
project a higher priority chronologically. The project is estimated to take 12 months to complete.
· Sanitary Sewer Overflow Reporting - The purpose of this project is to develop an application that
will comply with all the public and government notice requirements associated with a sanitary
sewage spill. The project includes an update of the GIS database of the sanitary sewer network. This
data layer requires sanitary sewer network editing, including additions of new sewer lines, revision
of the accuracy of existing sewer lines, or updating other network features (e.g., valves,
manholes, connectors). The budget estimate includes line items for writing the computer code
necessary to perform the valve cutoff identification, identify affected parcels for notification, and
generate an incident report. The Sanitary Sewer Overflow Reporting application requires both the
potable water network and stormwater system network as inputs. The Ada County Highway District
(ACHD) maintains the stormwater system network. This project must follow the updates to those layers.
The project is estimated to take 12 months to complete.
· Work Order Maps - This application calls for a method to generate work order maps for water and
sewer system repair and replacement projects. To do this most effectively, the Public Works
Department should retain a consultant to integrate the sanitary sewer and potable water system GIS
networks into asset management software. This project is estimated to require 12 months to
complete.
· Utility Public Information Requests - This application would provide a means for Public Works
Department staff to automate the process for answering questions from developers about the availability
and location of fire hydrants and utility services. In particular, this application would compare the
invert elevation of water and sewer lines and compare those to ground elevations for the area of
interest to provide information on the depth to which those lines are buried. The application
would also provide information on the location and flow of fire hydrants. Invert elevations would be
acquired using a bike-GPS program or other means. This project could follow the completion of the
utility networks, and would take about 4 months to complete.
· Infrastructure Condition Rating - This project would require development of an infrastructure
inventory database, and data entry of historical data on repair history. Since this is a new
database, it would require attribute data entry for 100% of the City's road network, but assumes
that ACHD's existing roadway centerline layer would be used with minimal updates beyond

Zoning Amendment Findings
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance I 1-15-11, General Standards Applicable to Zoning
Amendments, both the P&z Commission and Council are required "to review the
parti cuIar facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the
following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the fOnowing questions
about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis:
A. Will the new zoning he hamlOnious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
As noted in the Summary above, the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use
Map designates the subject property as "Low Density Residential". The purpose
of a low density residential designation is to allow for the development of single-
family homes on large lots where urban services are provided, Uses may include
single4amily homes at densities oftlu'ee dwelling units or less per acre (Page 95,
Chapter VII, 2002 Comprehensive Plan).
The City recently approved Resolution No. 04-454, which amended Chapter VII,
Section I, of the Comprehe11sive Plan to include the foUowing language: "At the
discretion of City Council, areas with a Residential Comprehensive Plan
designation may request office uses if the property has fi:ontage Oll an arterial
street or a section line road and is 3 acres in size or less in size. In this instance,
no ancillary Commercial uses shall be permitted." City Council finds that the
subject propelty hasfi:ontage 011 Locust Grove Road, an arterial street, and is less
than 3 acres in size (0.56 acres total).
Because the property is less than 3-acres in size, is located on an arterial street,
and has existing commercial uses around it, City Council believes that a
residential Use of the property may not be the best use of the land. City Council
believes that an office zone and use 011 the subject propeliy is appropriate as the
request is consistent with the intent of Resolution No. 04-454. Please see the
following facts and circumstances and the Special Considerations below for
further analysis of the proposed zoning designation and anticipated office use.
C~rol Street Professional Office Annexation Exhibit D
City Council finds the following Goals, Objectives, and Action items contained in
the 2002 Comprehensive Plan to be applicable to this application (Cl/WZl'sis is in
italics below policy):
Q "Restrict curb cuts and access points all collectors and arterial streets!'
(Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action item 2)
On the submitted plan, the applicant is proposing Cl singLe access 10 Carol
Street, No access to Locust Grove Road, an arterial street, is proposed.
o "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors
(setback, vegetation, low walJs, belUlS, etc.)." (Chapter VII, Goal IV,
Objective D, Action item 4)
Locust Grove Road is designated as an arterial street, By City Ordinance, a
25-foot wide landscape bturer is required adjacent to Locust Grove Road
(MCC 12-13-10-4), Landscape btifJers will be required by the City with
Certificate of Zoning Compliance (C2C) approval.
Q "Require all cOlJunercia1 businesses to install and maintain Jandscaping."
(Chapter V, Goal III, Objective D, Action item 5)
The applicant has shown both intemal and perimeter landscaping on the
submitted plans. The applicant is requesting alternative compliance for the
required landscape btiffers ac!jacent to the single-:family homes to tlte north
and west. Prior to Occupancy of the buildings On tltis site fOr office uses, the
applicant will be required to construct internal and perimeter landscaping in
accordance witlt City Ordinances.
(l "Permit new, . . commercial development only where urban services can be
reasonably provided at the time affinal approval and development is
contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, Goal I, Obj, A, #6)
This parcel is contiguous to the city via the Walgreen's site to the south and
Fred Meyer site to the east, Sanitmy seWer and water are available to this
parcel.
o "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail Opportunities within the Impact
Area." (Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective B)
City Council believes that the proposed zone, which allows o.ffice uses, does
contribute to the variety of uses in this area.
City Council finds thaI the new zoning to L-O should be harmonious with and in
accordance with the Comprehensive Plan, as amended by Resolution No. 04-454.
Carol SlrcCI Professional Office AtlneXMion Exhibit D
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Concul1"ent with the annexation and zoning application, the applicant has
submitted a site plan and a landscape plan. These plans depict the remodeled
office, a storage shop, parking, and landscaping improvements for this property,
City Council does not anticipate that the applicant plans to rezone the subject
property ill the future if the subject annexation/zoning is approved, as the
anticipated office llse is allowed in the requested L-Q zone. Please see Finding
"C".
C. Is the lH'Ca included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -fol" example, a
residential ar'ea turning into a commercial m'ea bjl means of conditional Use
permits;
City Council finds that professional offices, laboratories. libraries and medical
clinics would be penuitted uses within the requested L-O Zone. However, there
are several uses in the requested L-Q zone that can OCcur with conditional use
permit approval. City Council is concerned that this site may turn into a
commercial retail site, and is recommending that the City limit the uses that can
operate on the site.
D. Has there been a change in the ar'ea or adjacent areas Which may dictate that
the an~a should be rezoned. Fot' example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent nrea being developed
in a fashion similar to the pmposed rezone area;
This area has seen mauy recent changes, Most notably, Office Jet Subdivision,
which is less than y.; of a mile to the north of the subject site on Locust Grove
Road, Office buildings have recently been constructed within Office Jet
Subdivision. Locust Grove Road is cUll'ently improved to five lanes. Carol Street
has curb, gutter and sidewalk on the south side of the street (adjacent to
Walgreen's). These factors contribute to recommending that this area should be
rezoned,
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, opel"ated and maintained to
he harmonious and appr"opriate in appearance with the existing or intended
~haractel' of the general vicinity and that such use will not c]lange the
essential character of the sante area;
The applicant will be required to re-construct, operate and maintain the office
building(s) in accordance with City Code. Although tlus area was intended for
residential uses when the 2002 Comprehensive Plan was adopted, City Council
finds that an office zone also complies with what is intended for tMs intersection,
as Resolution No. 04-454 allows the City Council to consider office uses in this
enrol Street Professional Office Anncxntioll Exhibit D
location, City Council finds that the design of the submitted layout could be
h~rmollious with the adjacent properties if adequate landscaping/screening is
provided. City Council further finds that the proposed office zOlle/use wHl change
the existing character of the area, but that the proposed zone and future use should
be hanllonious and appropriate in appearance with the character of the overall
area. City Councj] finds that any future uses, if designed, constructed and
operated in accordance with adopted city ordinances, should be harmonious and
appropriate in appearance with the intended character ofthe vicinity.
F. Will the proposed uses not be IUlznrdous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
City Council finds that the use of this site for professional offices should not be
hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the applicant
enters into a development agreement with the City and all development and
landscaping ordinances are exercised, Commercial (office) vehicular access to
this site could cause a potential disturbance to existing and/or future residential
uses in this area, The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates
the properties to the north and west as low density uses and this office lot would
take access to a primarily residential street, Carol Street. City Council does not
believe that this office will generate a significant amount of traffic. However, City
CounciJ has received several letters and phone calls fi.-om nearby property Owners
stating that an office use on this property win be disturbing. Some of the
neighbors have stated that getting into and out of the subdivision is very difficult.
Due to the location of the Walgreen's driveway, the Fred Meyer driveway and
cars stacking up at the Locust GrovelFairview intersection, access to Carol Street
has become difficult for the residents ill this area. Therefore, In addition to staff's
analysis, the Commission and Council should rely on public testimony (oral and
written) to determine whether or not the potential disturbance of allowing a
commercial access int%ut of this site will substantially affect the existing or
future neighboring uses.
G. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services
such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures,
refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for the
estabUslJnlcnt of proposed zoning amendment shaH be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Sanitary sewer is available in N. Locust Grove Road and has already been stubbed
into W. Carol Street which abuts the southe11l boundary of this property,
The applicant and/or future propetty owners will be required to pay any
applicable park and highway impact fees as well as constmct oll-site storm water
drainage facilities.
Carol Strcct Professionul Office Annexation Exhibit D
On July I, 2005, a joint agency and departl11Cllt comments meeting was held with
representatives of1cey service providers to this property. Based on the joint
meeting and other comments received from agencies and departments, City
Council finds that the public services listed above can be made available to
accommodate the proposed development. The Commission and Council should
reference any written and/or verbal testimony submitted by any public service
provider, regarding their ability to adequately service this project.
H, Will not create excessive additional rcquh-ements at public cost for public
facilities and sel'vices and will not be detl'imental to the economic welfare of
the camnlUnUy;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local
street infi:astructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. Other
required site improvements wiII be funded and constructed by the developer
through the CZC approval process. The primary public costs to serve the future
uses will be fire and police facilities and services. City Council finds there will
not be excessive additionall'equiremellts at public cost and that the proposed
zoning and subsequent development will not be detrimental to the community's
economic welfare.
1. WiII the pl'oposed uses not invalve uses) activities; processes) materials;
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of
traffic) naisc, smoke) fumes) glare or odors;
The purpose of the L-Q zone is to "penuit the establishment of groupings of
profeSSional, research, executive, administrative, accounting, clerical,
stenographic, public service and similar uses., .shall not involve heavy testiug
operations of any kind or product manufacturing of such a nature to create noise,
vibration or emissions of a nature offensive to the overall purpose of this
District." (MCCl1-7~2.G) As such, City COLUlCil does not anticipate future uses
will create smoke, fumes, glare, or odors that will be detrimental to the genera!
welfare of persons or property in the area. City Council does not anticipate the
proposed annexation and subsequent use(s) will create excessive noise, smoke,
fumes, glare. or odors. City Council finds that the proposed office zoning/use
should not be detrimental to people, property Or the general welfare of the area.
If the subject annexation and zoning application is approved, the applicant intends
to remodel the existing home into an office, City Council finds that any future
uses on this site will generate additional traffic all adjacent roadways above and
beyond what the existing residence generates. City Council recognizes that traffic
and noise will increase with the approval of fhis development; however, do to the
smaller size of the site City Council does not believe that the amount generated
will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. However, the City has
received several letters from home owners in this area, some stating that the
Carol Strcct Professional Office Allllexotion Exhibit D
proposed llse may be detrimental to persons, properly and/or their general
welfare, In addition to staff's analysis, the Commission and Council should rely
on any and all public testimony (oral and written) provided when determining this
finding.
MCC 11-16-4 provides the P&Z Commission and City Council the authority to
require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement with the City of
Meridian that may require some written commitment for all future uses to more
funy comply with this finding, Due to the close proximity of the existing
residential uses, City Council believes that a Development Agreemel1t is
necessary to ensure that the purpose of the L-O zone is maintained, Please see
Annexation & Zoning Facts and Comments.
J, wm the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference witIl traffic au surrounding public
streets;
This parcel has approximately 100 feet offi:ontage on Locust Grove Road. Any
driveway to the site fl:om Locust Grove Road would be close to the Carol
Street/Locust Grove Road intersection. Therefore, the applicant is proposing a
ddvewnyapproach to Carol Street and not Locust Grove Road. ACHD considers
access points in their analysis of development applications and their staff is
recommending approval of the proposed vehicular approach. City Council
believes that the proposed uses (and access) should not be hazardous to
neighboring uses 01' traffic flows. The Commission and Council rely 011 public
testimony, ACHD City Council, and City staff's analysis when detel111ining
whether or not the proposed vehicular approach to Carol Street will create an
Interference with traffic on SUIToullding public streets.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damnge of a natural 01" scenic
featUl'e of major importance; and
City Council is unaware of any natural or scenic features of major importance on
this site and finds that no natural or scenic features of major importance will be
lost or damaged by al'proving the annexation and zoning application, Any
existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed shall be mitigated for, as
detenuil1ed by the City Arborist.
L, Is the p.-oposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. COrd. 592, 11-17~1992)"
The legal description submitted with the application, prepared by An-ow Land
Surveying, Inc., shows that the propeliy is contiguous to the existing COl1Jorate
boundary of the City of Meridian. The land directly south and east oftlle subject
property has previously been annexed into the City and this is a logical expansion
of the City boundary, The ap1'l icant is propoSillg to develop the land in substantial
Cnrol Street Pl'OfcssiOlwl Office Annexation Exhibit D
compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan. In accordance with the findings
listed above, City Council finds that the annexation and zonia'! of this Dl'OlJerf;y
would be in the best interest or tile City. NOTE: City Council has included
Development Agreement stipulations for annexatiOll and zoning of this property.

Staff finds that the proposed zoning designation, R-4, is harmonious with and in accordance with the
2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, which designates the land to be Low Density
Residential. There is a maximum density of 3 dwelling units per acre in the Comprehensive Plan; the
proposed gross density of Bridget ower Subdivision No. 14 is 2.51 dwelling units per acre.
Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this property and apply to the
proposed development (staff analysis in italics below policy):
· Require that development projects have planned for the provision of all public services. (Chapter VII,
Goal III, Objective A, Action 1)
When the City established its Area of City Impact, it planned to provide City services to the
subject property. The City of Meridian plans to provide municipal services to the lands proposed
to be annexed in the following manner:
· Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at the developer's
expense.
· The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire
Department, who currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural
Fire Department.
· The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Meridian Police Department
(MPD ).
· The roadways adjacent to the subject lands are currently owned and maintained by the
Ada County Highway District (ACHD). This service will not change.
· The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian School District #2. This service
will not change.
<File Numbers To Be Added By Planner>

CITY OF MERIDIAN PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTIONS? CALL (208) 884-5533
Municipal, fee-supported, services will be provided by the Meridian Building Department, the
Meridian Public Works Department, the Meridian Water Department, the Meridian Wastewater
Department, the Meridian Planning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitmy
Services Company.
· Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels
(Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective C, Action 1)
The applicant is proposing a single-family development. The existing residential properties to the
east, south, and west are compatible with the proposed development.
· Support a variety of residential categories (low-, medium-, and high-density single family, multi-
family, townhouses, duplexes, apartments, condominiums, etc.) for the purpose of providing the City
with a range of affordable housing opportunities (Chapter VII, Goal N, Objective C, Action 10)
The subject property is designated Low-Density Residential on the Future Land Use Map. The
applicant has proposed a density consistent with that designation and has requested an R-4 zone
(2.51 d.u.lacre).
· Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to enhance connectivity and
better traffic flow (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 6)
The applicant is proposing to connect to a stub street to the east, W. San Remo Drive, and
connect to an existing street to the west, N Towerbridge Way. City staff and ACHD are
supportive of the connectivity planfor this area (see ACHD comments and conditions for details).
· Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect to local roads and collectors in
adjacent developments. (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A, Action 13)
See bullet above.
· Permit new residential, commercial, or industrial developments only where urban services can be
reasonably providecl at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City. (Chapter
N Goal II, Objective A)
All urban services can be made available to this site.
8. ZONING ORDINANCE
a. Zoning Schedule of Use Control: Meridian City Code 11-2-1 lists single family detached
homes as a permitted use in the R-4 zoning district.
b. Purpose Statement of Zone: R-4 Low Density Residential District: Only single-family
dwellings, public schools, and public and private parks shall be permitted and no conditional uses
shall be permitted except for planned developments. The purpose of the R-4 district is to permit
the establishment of low density single-family dwellings, and to delineate those areas where
predominantly residential development has, or is likely to occur in accord with the comprehensive
plan of the city, and to protect the integrity of residential areas by prohibiting the intrusion of

1. PRELIMINARY PLAT:
Relationship of Pre-plat to Planned Development Concept: The following note (on page
10, Item #12) was included in the Decision and Order Granting the CUP (CUP-01-006)
for Bridgetower Crossing, outlining how the subject application corresponds to the
approved PD application:
"This project is approved in concept only. The concept includes: maximum number
of residential lots not to exceed 692 (does not include townhouse lots), mixed uses,
school site, setbacks, collector roadways, amenities and open space. The applicant
recognizes that the approval is in concept only and that detailed approval shall be
required by submittal of all appropriate applications, including, but not limited to,
preliminwy plat or plats and conditional use permit or permits. The detailed
approval shall be subject to all applicable Ordinances unless otherwise approved
under the original Planned Unit Development application. H
The applicant has stated that "even with the 11 additional lots in this phase, the total
number of lots has still been reduced by 9 lots." Staff finds that the submitted preliminary
plat is in general compliance with the approved Planned Development.
Open Soace: The applicant has stated that the proposed subdivision contains 1.40 acres
of eligible open space, for a total of 5.86 percent of the development. Staff finds that this
number includes Lot 46, Block 15, which is proposed as an existing cemetery surrounded
by a sand bottom storm water detention basin, allowed under an existing agreement with
the City of Meridian. MCC 12-13-16 states that eligible open space must be "active or
passive in its intended use, and must be accessible by all residents of the subdivision",
and staff finds that the sand bottom portion of Lot 46, Block 15, does not qualify as
eligible open space. Staff finds that in order to comply with Meridian City Code, the
applicant must provide additional usable open space which meets the minimum
requirement of 5 percent. See Site Specific Condition 1.1.2.
b. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of PP-05-044 for Bridgetower
Subdivision No. 14 as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of October 6, 2005 based on the
Findings of Fact as listed in Exhibit D and subject to the conditions of approval as listed in Exhibit B as
attached to this report. Staff has prepared findings consistent with this recommendation.

7. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES AND GOALS
Mixed Use. There are three sub-categories of the Mixed Use designation. Generally, the
designation will provide for a combination of compatible land uses that are typically developed
under a master or conceptual plan. The purpose of this designation is to
Identify key areas which are either infill in nature or situated in highly visible or transitioning
areas of the city where innovative and flexible design opportunities are encouraged. The intent of
this designation is to offer the developer a greater degree of design and use flexibility.
The following standards will serve as general guidelines for development in these Mixed
Use areas:
All development within this designation will occur only under the Conditional Use
Permit process,
Mixed Use-Community: The following standards will apply to this category:
Up to 25 acres of non-residential uses permitted within the Mixed Use-Conunuruty areas as
shown on the Future Land Use Map. In Mixed Use-Community areas that are not Neighborhood
Centers, over 25 acres of non-residential uses shall be permitted (through the CUP process).
Up to 200,000 sq. ft. of non-residential building area
Residential density of 3 to 15 units/acre
Sample uses include: All MU-N categories, clothing stores, garden centers, hardware stores,
restaurants, banks, drive-thtu facilities, auto service station, department stores.
Furthermore, the proposed development meets the following goals and objectives ofthe
Comprehensive Plan: Chapter VII Goal N: Encourage compatible uses to minimize conflicts and
maximize use of land.
Objective A: Address conflicts with compatible uses and Impact Areas.
Chapter VII Goal N Objective A Action 1. Minimize noise, odor, air pollution, and visual
pollution in industrial development adjacent to residential areas.
Chapter VII Goal N Objective A Action 2. Encourage industrial development to locate adjacent
to existing industrial uses.
Chapter VII Goal N Objective A Action 3. Require industrial uses to conform to disposal, spill
and storage measures as outlined by the EP A.
Chapter VII Goal N Objective A Action 4. Locate industrial uses where adequate water supply
and water pressure are available for fire protection.
Chapter VII Goal N Objective A Action 5. Require industrial development to conform to Federal
and State air, water, and noise pollution standards, and local Landscaping, traffic, noise, and
environmental standards.
8. ZONING ORDINANCE
Purpose Statement of Zone:
I-L Light Industrial District: The purpose of the I-L light industrial district is to provide for light
industrial development and opportunities for employment of Meridian citizens and area residents
and reduce the need to commute to neighboring cities; to encourage the development of
WEED AND PEST CONTROL SUBDIVISION

(
DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT. QUESTJONS? CALL (208) 884.5533
manufacturing and wholesale establislunents which are clean, quiet and free of hazardous or
objectionable elements, such as noise, odor, clust, smoke or glare and that are operated entirely
or almost entirely within enclosed structures; to delineate areas best suited for industrial
development because of location, topography, existing facilities and relationship to other land
uses. This district must also be in such proximity to ensure connection to the municipal water
and sewer systems of the city. Uses incompatible with light industry are not pennitted, and strip
development is prohibited.
9. ANALYSIS
a. Analysis of Facts Leading to Staff Recommendation
1. PP Aoolication: Based on the policies and goals contained in the Comprehensive Plan
and the general compliance of the proposed development with the Zoning Ordinance, staff
believes that this is a good location for the proposed development.
The applicant will be responsible for all costs associated with the sewer and water service
extension. Any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project will have to be
removed from their domestic service, per City Ordinance Section 5-7-517, when services are
available from the City of Meridian. Wells may be used for non-domestic purposes such as
landscape irrigation.
All future development of the subject property shall be constructed in accordance with City of
Meridian ordinances in effect at the time of development. All future uses shall not involve uses,
activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to
any persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise,
smoke, fumes, glare or odors.
Microoaths: The applicant is proposing to construct a micropath with this plat along the Five
Mile Creek as shown on the landscaping plan. Staff is generally supportive of the pedestrian
connections between the existing industrial developments east of the site for future connection to
the west and north along Five Mile Creek.
Commercial Streets: MCC 12-13-10-4 requires a lO-foot wide street buffer along commercial
roadways. On the submitted landscape plan, the applicant is proposing to construct a 25-foot
wide buffer to Pine Ave. A 10-foot wide street buffer along both sides of Commercial Avenue
is required. However, the street buffers easements should be labeled on the plat. Staff
recommends that the applicant be allowed to landscape such easements prior to issuance of
certificate of occupancy for the first structure on each proposed lot (instead of tied to the final
plat).
Ditches Laterals and Canals: There are several irrigation laterals, creeks, ditches that bisect this
parcel. Per MCC 12-4-13, all irrigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of natural
waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the area being subdivided
shall be tiled. Due to the size, location and status of the canals bordering the site, they shall not
be required to be tiled or covered.
b. Staff Recommendation: Staffrecommends Approval ofPP-05-042 for Weed and Pest
Control Campus Subdivision as presented in the staff report dated October 6, 2005 based on the
Findings of Fact as listed in Exhibit C as attached to this report. Staff has prepared findings
consistent with this recommendation.
