Item 6:
Department Reports:
A. Planning Department - Brad Hawkins-Clark
1. Presentation of DEQ Brownfield Application:
De Weerd: Thank you. Item 6 is the planning department. Brad.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Mayor, Members of the Council. The planning department
a couple years ago now worked with the EPA Region Ten office to get an application
that they call a Target Brownfield Assessment for the creamery and we were successful
in getting that grant and DEQ worked with us to help follow that up, as you well know.
Since that time we have had some conversations with our local DEQ office about
another program that they offer called an area wide assessment and Aaron Sheff is with
the Brownfield's division at DEQ here and the main goal of this tonight is if you could
just sort of -- what we are asking for is for your blessing, if you will, on our department to
proceed with filing an application that would go to EPA Region Ten office for this
program. And so rather than me trying to give you the highlights of it, I asked if Aaron
could come. So, if you're okay with that, he could give you a bit of an overview and,
then, we are just asking for your direction after that.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you, Brad. Thank you for joining us this evening.
Sheff: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Council. Appreciate the opportunity to be here to talk
to you about Brownfields. Just to clarify for the audience and for those on the Council
who may not be familiar with the term, according to EPA this is the definition of a
Brownfield, so I'm just going to read it. Real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or
reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or the potential presence of
contamination. So potential. You don't even have to be contaminated to be considered
a Brownfield. Something else that's important to know about Brownfields, in general, is
that EPA splits up the contamination into two different types. Petroleum, meaning
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 4 of 62
gasoline, oil, grease, these types of things, and, essentially, everything else. And
everything else runs the gamut from meth labs, to mine scarred lands, to drycleaning
chemicals, solvents, anything that's not petroleum, essentially. The nice thing about the
Brownfield's program -- folks aren't used to with regard to EPA and DEQ is that it's
voluntary and non-regulatory and specifically it's aimed at redevelopment. So, really,
it's a development slash redevelopment program, for things like green space, housing,
even just redeveloping industrial properties. I will have to say that out of approximately
30 assessments that EPA and DEQ have conducted in Idaho, zero have gone
regulatory, meaning no enforcement actions on any of the sites that we have assessed
in this state so far, which is also good news. As Brad mentioned, there is two different
type of grants, You have a bit of familiarity with the targeted Brownfield assessment,
which is the anytime, anyplace, you can come and ask either DEQ or EPA for a fairly
limited assessment of a specific property. It's not competitive, it's, essentially, first come
first serve until the budget runs out. And that was, actually, accomplished over at the
creamery, to a large success. I was a little bit nervous about that one, but it turned out
to be pretty good news. And, in fact, I spoke with the potential purchaser today and
they indicated that they will be closing on that property in mid September, to a large
degree because of the information that they gained through those assessments. It's a
very powerful tool, these assessment grants. Now, the application that we are talking
about tonight, the grant opportunity here, is a nationwide competitive grant application
process. It typically has a success rate of ten to 15 percent. It's not that great. And I
will tell you in '03 Idaho had a zero percent success rate. In '04 we had about a 65
percent success rate. And last year we had about a 70 percent success rate. But it's
important to note that out of the four states in Region Ten, we took about 45 percent of
the total funding for Region Ten. So, we are doing pretty well now, starting from zero
just a couple years ago. There are other cities in our region who have gone through this
national competitive process for an area wide assessment grant through EPA. Notably
Caldwell, basically right next door, through their Indian Creek realignment process, have
inventoried a number of sites that they were interested in assessing. So, they have kind
of a discrete corridor and an inventory of maybe 14, 15 sites that they want to take a
look at through this process. We won the grant, they are about halfway through right
now, and they are doing pretty well. CCDC, which is the urban renewal district in
downtown Boise, also has an area wide assessment grant and they are on two-thirds of
the way through a three phase process and I imagine their process will be somewhat
similar to how this grant application would be set up, in that they are inventorying all of
the sites they have within their 430 acre jurisdiction. They are done with that. They got
about 380 Brownfield sites in downtown Boise. Out of that they have taken a look at --
they prioritized some sites and they sort of dropped a lot out and now we are looking at
about 50 and, then, they are going to prioritize from that which ones they want to start
assessing, either through phase ones, which are, essentially, record searches and,
then, phase two assessments, which are similar to what happened at the creamery
where you're actually taking soil and groundwater samples, until they run out of money.
In the meantime, they are also coming back to EPA and DEQ and requesting these site
specific noncompetitive targeted assessments. So, what MDc and meeting with Brad
and DEQ, kind of thought that, wow, wouldn't it be a great idea if Meridian, experiencing
so much growth, you know, with the rail property downtown that's kind of in flux,
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 5 of 62
wouldn't it be great if Meridian decided to go for this same sort of assessment grant.
You already have examples on how it's done. We have pretty good experience on
writing these types of grants and being successful and you already have a little bit of
experience with the Brownfield process anyway. Just to give you some specifics on the
grant, it's about 15 pages is what they are generally limited to. The grants are generally
due in late November, early December, there is no due date yet, but that's usually when
that occurs. So, you get your application in in December, you have to wait until about
June to figure out if you actually get the award. I know it's a long time to wait and sort of
not fair. But after that you develop a work plan with EPA, okay, and, then, you enter
into a cooperative agreement and so, generally, around October they release the funds.
So, it's a long process. You know, about a ten-month process before you -- by the time
you put the application in and you get your money. After you release -- the funds are
released you have two years to spend down the account, spend out the grant.
Accomplish your mission. Very doable. I would say CCDC is halfway through their
grant period. They have accomplished probably 70 percent of what they want to do on
their grant. So, it's very very doable. Another thing -- let's talk money, how much are
these grants worth. For area wide assessments you can apply for a maximum of
200,000 dollars for each type of contaminant. So, we are looking at two types of
contaminants, petroleum and everything else. So, for a maximum of 400,000 dollars
that's the grant we are looking at and that's the grant that I would suggest the city
endorse as far as applying for. Caldwell and CCDC both asked for 400,000. They got
half. And they were limited to one contaminant each, both petroleum. I'm not really
sure why that happened, but, you know, it's a competitive process, that's just the way it
shook out. So, you must be prepared for the fact that, A, you might get nothing, B, you
might just get half. And it might be split or it might be limited to one contaminant each.
Or you get both, which is fantastic. The good news is there is no match for the city. No
in kind, no dollar match, this is, essentially, free money, as long as you comply with the
work plan that you agree with on -- with EPA And a neat trick that some of our other
applicants have learned is that once you get a contractor on board, you make them do
all the work, and there are a number of contractors in the state now who are used to
doing Brownfield's work and are used to reporting directly to EPA and they can send
you all the reports and paperwork that you need to turn into EPA, essentially, ready to
go, just with a signature. So, Brad wanted me to kind of layout what, you know, staff
hours you might be getting involved with here. As far as pre-award grant writing, we are
talking maybe 20 to 40 hours. Of course, DEQ will be as involved as you want us to be
with writing the grant and we will also provide a letter of support as well. Then, there is
a post-award commitment, that's developing the work plan, 20 to 30 hours of staff time.
Again, we are available to help and I'm thinking that as we get more used to doing these
that time will shrink considerably. Then, the big thing is is letting the RFP, actually
hiring your contractor. That's a big step in the process. Again, that shouldn't take any
more than 20 hours and I have sat on a number of panels and helped developed RFP's,
so I would be more than happy to help with that. And, then, you have the actual grant
management. Again, over the course of the grant, two years, maybe 20 to 40 hours.
So, I'm thinking about 120 hours max of staff time that you should put aside. That's sort
of worst case scenario. And another thing that's kind of good is if you spend out the
majority of your grant money on inventory and phase ones -- again, like I said before,
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 6 of 62
you can still come back to DEQ and EPA and ask for these targeted assessments on
specific property that you're interested in that have a developer time line you're trying to
meet. And, then, also, of course, MDc would be eligible for applying for the same types
of grants. So, if you work closely together you can really strategize well to develop your
inventory and plan for your explosive growth out here. Do you have any questions?
De Weerd: Now -- so, the city would apply for a portion and MDC would as well; is that
what you're suggesting?
Sheff: What Brad and Clair Bowman and Keith Donohue, my manager and I, kind of sat
down and strategized and decided that it would be best if one entity choose and since
Meridian has a much larger jurisdiction than the MDC board does, we decided that that
would probably be the best. Then, if it turns out that there is specific corridors that you
identify for a lot of sort -- of involved assessment work, then -- and they fall within the
MDc board jurisdiction -- I'm thinking about a particular region around the railroad there,
that -- it might be a little bit better for them just to focus on some of those more discrete
areas as far as applying for targeted assessment grants or even if they find a site that
that has lots of contamination. You can, actually, do a site-specific assessment through
the national program that maxes out at about 700,000 dollars per application. So that's
sort of the strategy that we hit upon and if that meets the board's approval and your
approval, Madam Mayor, that's what we suggest.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Council, any other questions?
Bird: I have none, Mayor.
De Weerd: Well, thank you for joining us tonight and for working with staff. I know that
you did bring up the creamery and it was a big part of the decision of even putting the
option. They knew what they were dealing with.
Sheff: Right. Right. Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Brad.
Hawkins-Clark: I think what -- we would just work with MDc to get mailing out and
some public notification in terms of the process. They have agreed to do that at their
last board meeting. So, unless you hear anything else, we will just take it from here and
work with MDC to prepare the application over the next couple of months and submit.
De Weerd: Okay. So--
Rountree: Do you need a motion?
De Weerd: Council -- yeah. We probably need a motion directing staff to move forward
with this.

Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I move that we direct staff to move forward with the application for the
Brownfield grant.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to instruct staff to move forward towards the
Brownfield application. Is there any discussion? Okay. All those in favor say aye.
Okay. All ayes. Motion carries. Thank you, Brad.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
2. Discussion of Letter from Flovd Robinson:
De Weerd: Our next item -- I believe that Steve Siddoway will -- there is Mr. Robinson.
I'm glad you could join us tonight. If you would like to come forward. Council, we got a
letter from Mr. Robinson last week and we do have Mr. Siddoway here to give an
overview from what the city has done in response. Also, Mr. Mills is here from AcHD
and he's prepared to address this as well.
Robinson: Thank you, Madam Mayor. I revised it a little bit and I got six more copies
for you.
De Weerd: Okay.
Robinson: In revising it I also put todayts date. I'd like to address the City Council on
some ongoing problems and concerns that we have at Mallard Landing. My wife and I
moved into this smaller town of Meridian to get away from the big city in 1996. So, we
have been here a little while. We moved into Mallard Landing off of Linder. It's a dead
end street at the end of -- crosses Franklin and so on. And in order to get into the
Landing you have to cross a bridge. We moved in and [ mentioned the concerns -- my
concerns about 250 families on a dead end street to my developer Corey Barton. He
promised me that within two years the problem would be solved, that he had ran a
section of Greenhead over and kind of dead ended it for somebody to add onto,
whoever the next developer would be. In 1997 I came to City Council and asked that
you guys remedy the situation, because we had now reached 400 families on a dead
end street. I never received any kind of answer from the Council at that time. In 1999 I
came to City Council -- to a City Council meeting to report that we had finally reached
our maximum in the Landing of 500 families. We still did not have any other way out of
the Landing, except Linder-Franklin. Now, since the Jabil and the proposed overpass
has gone belly up, we would like to have the freeway overpass that was promised to
them switched over to Linder, so we can have a way out. Well, I'm here in 2005, still
asking City Council to do something to help the people of Meridian. We now have two
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 8 of 62
more housing developments and a grade school since my last visit. We are now larger
than some of the small towns in Idaho. We even have a grade school. We have over
700 families living on a dead end street. My questions are does a child have to die
before -- because an ambulance could not be -- into the Landing say coming out of
South Under and Overland, has to take the long way around to get into the Landing?
Does a house have to burn down for the same reason, fire trucks coming from Amity
and South Linder, forced to take the longer route? And the big question is how much
longer do we have to wait. I have been coming here for nine years trying to get this
solved. What price do we have to pay to get another exit out of Mallard Landing? If two
school buses were to collide on the bridge, there is no way to get any other vehicles
past the school buses because by law no one can move the school buses until after a
complete and thorough investigation, which could take hours. I'm not the only one in
Mallard Landing that feels this way. We are voters, too. Please visualize our situation.
Thank you very much.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Robinson. I'll ask Mr. Siddoway to kind of give you an
overview and Council an overview of what we did last year. The planning department
and the fire department and ACHD all got together to see what we could do, not being
owners of the land that the connection would have to go through. So, Steve.
Siddoway: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. As Mr. Robinson
points out, there is a stub -- there is actually two stubs from the Landing Subdivision to
the east. One is at Greenhead Street, as he mentioned. The other is called Ruddy
Drive. Both of those existing stubs are simply waiting for additional development to the
east to make that connection over to the Waltman Lane area. For several years now
the city has prioritized that -- to making one of those connections as an emergency
services connection, for several years with the Transportation Task Force, and the list
that City Council sends onto ACHD and Compass, specifically asking for a roadway
connection from Meridian Road to the Landing. ACHD -- last year it was your priority
number six, which was moved up from the prior year, which was at number 11. ACHD
response has been that they support the connection. Given that it's a local road
connection and in an area that is anticipated to redevelop, that it would be development
driven. So, they are simply waiting for development to make that connection at this
point. Not wanting to wait, the city did -- as you mentioned, did meet with AcHD and
the fire department and the current property owner at that time, Mr. Foed Ragani, to talk
about a temporary emergency access easement that would cross his property and
connect Ruddy Drive stub. While he was sympathetic to the situation, he was not
willing to let that temporary easement cross his property at that time. But we have been
pro-active in going out and trying to go find a solution to the access problem. One of
the reasons why the connection hasn't happened yet is because without a solution to
the Waltman Lane intersection and being able to find access there, developers haven't
been interested in that area. Since the Council's action a few weeks ago along the
downtown transportation plan, we have had two pre-application meetings with
developers re-interested in that area. The developer that's in the corner that would be
adjacent to Ruddy Drive has been told in pre-application meeting that we would expect
with any plat that comes through to see a road connection from Ruddy Drive down to
Meridian City Council
August 23,2005
Page 9 of 62
Waltman Lane and making that connection happen. In terms of time line as to when we
might expect to see that, I would guess that it's probably in about a three year time line.
I don't expect to see that happen immediately, because they won't build their
development until the Waltman Lane intersection improvements get funded and
constructed. There seems to be two options from my perspective at this time. One is
we can wait the remaining time for development to make the connection. Or the second
option is to declare an emergency situation and condemn some property to make the
emergency services connection. We -- just as a point of clarification, the gentleman
mentioned that the Locust Grove overpass project had gone belly up. I want to assure
everyone that it has not. It is -- it will be constructed next year. So, it's on the books for
2006 construction. We are working on getting these connections over the freeway. The
Ten Mile interchange will likely be the next one. We are also working for a
reconstruction of the Meridian Road interchange. The Linder overpass is not forgotten,
but it's not on a funded list yet. It is in our Comprehensive Plan and should be included
with the GARVEE projects that are from Meridian through to Caldwell. But that is yet to
be seen with the work that ITD and Compass are doing. I think that's about all to report
on this point, unless there is any questions.
De Weerd: Steve, you had also mentioned another stub and, as I understand it, Ada
County has allowed a building permit to construct a house where anything would have
been stubbed into.
Siddoway: Yeah. If you remember, the -- the Commercial Drive that heads west and
we have -- development has built it to the Ten Mile Drain on the north side, with the
intent of having a future bridge built across the Ten Mile Drain and, then, connecting the
extra lot south into Waltman Lane. There is just this year been a new house
constructed very close to the alignment of where that road is intended to go. The
property is in Ada County. It went through the Ada Development Services for approval
and we never received any notification, we just noticed it there, so -- it's the Greenhead
stub could still theoretically be connected to Commercial -- is it -- not Commercial.
Central. Thank you. I knew that was the wrong name when I was saying it. Central.
But, again, that's a development driven connection, so --
De Weerd: Council--
Siddoway: I don't know if -- Bruce Mills, do you have anything you want to add from
ACHD?
De Weerd: Yeah. Bruce, if you will come forward. Councilman Bird has some
questions.
Bird: Well, I just -- on the Waltman deal, I realize that we -- irregardless of which way
we voted on the downtown Waltman, it's been on, like I said -- like Terry Little said, I
think it's been discussed since 1990. How far out is that?
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 10 of 62
Mills: Madam Mayor and Councilman Bird, Waltman right now -- well, you have a -- first
I should identify myself. Bruce Mills, Ada Highway District, Garden City. I understand
tonight that you actually have a motion to adopt the downtown Meridian Transportation
Plan, so, it will, then, be moved up forward to AcHD to, hopefully, also adopt that plan.
In which case it would then be considered to be put on our next addition of the five-year
work plan, which will be adopted this December. So, hopefully, that's what's going to
happen. It will get adopted. With that in mind, design would hopefully start in 2006 and
it's typically about a year of design, a year to purchase right of way -- although we don't
have a lot of right of way to buy for Waltman, so 2007 -- I would say probably -- like I
say, about three years out. About 2008 before we can actually do the --
Bird: Are we using any federal money?
Mills: No. Not for Waltman. At that's not our intention.
Bird: So, we don't have the two year delay for environment
Mills: Right So, I would say the earliest would probably be sometime 2007, but more
realistically perhaps 2008.
Bird: Because Waltman had to be done regardless of which way we go on downtown.
Mills: That's correct. As Steve mentioned also, we are hoping to get an emergency
connect at least over there. With the property owner reluctant to do that, even putting
through a regular connection without doing Waltman improvements now, is not a good
situation putting more cars on that terrible intersection up by Waltman and Meridian
Road. So, anyway, again, we are about three years out, probably.
Bird: And Mr. Robinson's one letter stated that Jabil and the overpass went down, I
think he's talking about the Locust Grove overpass. So, would you officially say that
that isn't down, it was just waiting for federal money.
Mills: f can go on record as saying that Locust Grove overpass will be constructed next
year in 2006. It does have federal money attached to it, which is--
Bird: That's what delayed it
Mills: -- why it's taken so long. You know, there are more hoops to go through,
unfortunately. You know, as you know, we are building the other portions of Locust
Grove this year and I know that that's going to be a great addition to the city and some
relief, at least, to the main Meridian corridor when we get the thing complete. It's not
belly up.
Bird: I knew it wasn't I just wanted to make sure it was on the record from the official
person.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 11 of 62
Mills: And ACHD is certainly supportive with getting Waltman connected through to --
the Landing area and, again, hopefully, once we get the intersection improved, that
development will occur and we will -- we have had conversations with some potential
developers about putting that road through and it sounds like the interest is there.
Bird: Thank you very much, Bruce.
De Weerd: Now, Bruce, would it be possible with the new property owner and not the
same one who was reluctant to allow an emergency access, could we do that in the
interim?
Mills: Madam Mayor, we certainly could. If we have a new owner of the property -- I
don't know if that's a done deal or not, but if it is -- yeah. If that's the case --
De Weerd: If we can pursue that and see if that's an option.
Mills: Yeah. Because our position is still, the ACHD, if we can get some type of
easement, even if it's temporary in nature, we will build at least a gravel emergency
access to have a connection for emergency vehicles. We could certainly do that.
De Weerd: Okay. If, Steve, you can maybe report back on the first meeting in
September on the 6th, if you could do that.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: I have a question of probably legal counsel and, then, maybe either Steve or
Bruce. Whose condemnation act would that be?
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I mean the city has legal authority to
condemn property for public purpose, but without the -- I guess the partnership of the
highway district in the project it wouldn't make much sense for us to go forward. But,
certainly, if the city wanted to do that, we would have to purchase that with city funds.
We wouldn't necessarily be reimbursed for that. We would, basically, be simply
donating that property to the highway district for a roadway. But, legally, we could
certainly proceed with that. We haven't had a necessity to do that and I don't think we
have a case in Idaho that I'm aware of on that sort of unique circumstance where we
would be condemning it for another public agency, but I don't -- I don't see -- I guess -- I
don't see initially a legal issue with that. I think it can be done and it's your folks'
decision on whether that's the right track to go down.
Wardle: Thanks. I was just clarifying whether it was ours or ACHD's.
Nary: Preferably AcHD.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 12 of 62
De Weerd: Generally ACHD. Any other questions from Council? So, Mr. Robinson, we
will follow up on September 6th as to the current landowner, if he is the owner yet or
not, and see if we can at last get a temporary. Other than that, that really safely could
not be constructed until Waltman -- that intersection there at the light on Main Street is
fixed. So, that's three years out. If you could, please, come forward.
Robinson: We at the Landing thank the Council and Mayor for doing something.
De Weerd: Thank you. Did we answer your question?
Robinson: Everything. Thank you.
B. City Attorney - Bill Nary
1.
Citizen's Compensation
Recommendation:
Review
Committee
2. Proposed Ordinance for Mavor and Citv Council
Compensation:
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you, sir. Thank you, Steve and Bruce. Okay. Item B. City
attorney. Mr. Nary.
Nary: I'll get out of my chair.
De Weerd: If you will, please, state your name for the record.
Nary: Bill Nary. Live in the City of Meridian. Mayor and Council, what I have for you
tonight -- at the budget hearings in July what was put on your potential -- on your budget
was an increase to the Mayor and Council's salary and the direction from you was to
form a committee of citizens to review that to -- to review that potential increase and it's
on the tentative budget review that prior to your budget hearing on August 30th. I did
want to report back to you tonight the results of that committee. I do have a letter -- one
of the committee members was unavailable today to sign it. She did send me an e-mail
to indicate she was in agreement with the letter, so I will get her signature for the record.
But the committee was made up of five people, Chris Klein, who is the incoming
Chamber of Commerce president. Also the head of Edward Jones Investment's office
here in Meridian. Sherry McCandless, a former Meridian City Council member. David
Moe, a Planning and Zoning Commissioner and a former city parks and recreation
commissioner. Burt Roberts, who is a member of the Meridian Ministerial Association,
that's part of the group that organizes and schedules the ministers that come in weekly
to do the invocation prior to the meeting, and has been a long-term Meridian resident.
And, then, Todd Wingfield, who is the district director for City Cards here at Silverstone
business park. The committee met twice. Both meetings were very good discussions.
Both meetings lasted about an hour and a half. The committee gathered some
information. They looked at other communities and what the pay scales were for both
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 13 of 62
mayor and council, they looked at the benefits of both the mayor and council here, as
well as mayor and councils in other communities. They looked at some of the increases
that have been authorized in other communities, both locally and around the state, for
both mayor and council. They weighed out what they felt was, essentially, a couple of
different factors in both what councils make versus what the mayor makes. Some
mayors are part time, in most cities, some mayors are full time, in our city and a few
others. Try to balance out all of those different considerations and they came up with a
couple of recommendations. What you have in front of you on your packet was possible
ordinances. The state law requires that if you want to increase the pay of the mayor or
the city council, that it has to be done prior to a general election, which is coming in
November, and it has to be passed at least 60 days prior. The last day for it to be
approved -- or, I'm sorry, to be published, is September 9th. The reason I have it before
you is that if you wish to authorize an increase, the ordinance has to be on your agenda
next week for it to be published in time prior to September 9th. So, if you want to
consider it, that's the date that you would have to make that final consideration. There
is three ordinances in front of you. What I did is the letter -- and I'll give Mr. Berg the
letter and he can pass it around. It is signed by all but one member of the committee.
They all were in agreement and I was hoping I would get copies, because I'd have them
all done, but they hadn't got that done by the end of the business day. They made a
couple of different recommendations. First, on Council salary, the committee's
recommendation was to increase the Council's salaries to 8,000 dollars beginning in
January of 2006 -- just to back up, the ordinances require any increases that you
provide to mayor or council cannot be effective until after the election and, then,
January of the following year, so --
Donnell: That is a month, isn't it, Mr. Nary?
Nary: Pardon me?
Donnell: Eight thousand a month?
Nary: Eight thousand dollars annually from the current 6,000. Which is what you had
put in your tentative budget. They also were recommending an increase to 9,000
dollars in 2007. They felt that in relation to other cities and the amount of work, the
expectation for the time that it takes to be an effective Council member, that that was --
the current pay was woefully inadequate and that it needed to be increased to,
basically, keep on par with most of the other cities and what they felt was appropriate.
And most of the cities that even paid more were smaller than Meridian. They also
recommended in relation to the Mayor's salary a couple of different things. And it looks
a little odd if you look at the ordinance. What they felt was that it was important that the
city do this in a systematic and regular way. And that it should have been done two
years ago prior to the mayor election in 2003 and it wasn't. So, the committee made
two recommendations for the immediacy for 2006. The first is a salary adjustment for
the Mayor's salary from 55,000 dollars annually, to 57,750 dollars annually. And they
also recommended that in addition to that, an additional five percent on top of the
57,000. So, for a total annual salary beginning January 1 of 2006 of 60,637 dollars.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 14 of 62
They also recommended an additional five percent of increase on January 1 st of 2007
and, then, an additional increase effective January of 2008, to a total compensation
annually of 65,000 dollars for salary. If you recall in your budget hearings, the Council's
tentative recommendation was moving the Mayor's salary up to 65,000 dollars
immediately. So, the committee took more of an interim step in recommending some
slighter increases, but one of them was based on an adjustment that they felt should be
done before each election. The other thing that was included in the ordinance -- and
there is a couple of caveats, but I put in the ordinance for your consideration, because
that was the committee's recommendation, was that this process of having a citizen's
group, an analysis of the comparisons of salaries of mayor and councils, be done every
four years on the year when the Mayor's election is to occur. So, that they don't have to
play catch up and they don't have to make radical adjustments every two or four years
that may have been left for a long period of time. The Mayor's salary in Meridian hasn't
been adjusted since 2001. The Council's salaries -- I can only find data back to ten
years ago and it hasn't changed in at least ten years. So, it's probably been longer than
that. They felt that was not a proper way to address what's fair compensation for
elected officials. So, the recommendation was to put it in the ordinance that on each
mayoral election year that there will be a committee, it will be prior to your budget
hearings, so that you have actual data and information before you have the hearings,
and that you would, then, have that -- and, again, you're free to do whatever you wish,
but you have that recommendation in front of you. The only caveat in doing that in
ordinance, it requires that there, then, be public meetings that follow the public meeting
requirements and all of that. I don't think that's a significant issue, but you just need to
be aware when you establish a committee by ordinance, that it's required that they meet
all the public meeting laws. Anyway, those are the recommendations of the committee.
I certainly can answer any questions as to the process or how they reached those. The
, third ordinance that's in front of you was probably maybe partly as much my
housekeeping as anyone. When I was looking for this, state law, again, regards that all
increases in salary be passed by ordinance. I couldn't find the ordinance that actually
enacted what these were supposed to be. It's because it's in the section that deals with
appointed officials. It deals with all the department directors and the city treasurer and
the city clerk and city attorney, so it's not where it should be for the public's benefit. So,
my recollection is if you're going to pass a new ordinance, that you delete it out of the
section that nobody would probably find it and put it in the section that relates to what
the Mayor's duties and responsibilities and pay are and what the Council's duties and
responsibilities and pay are. So, that's why there is three ordinances for your
consideration. Do you have any other questions?
De Weerd: Council, do you have any questions?
Rountree: I have none.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you.
Nary: Thank you.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 15 of 62
Rountree: Thanks, Bill.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any discussion? You have heard both items one and two. I
will need a motion on item two.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: First, I'd like to thank Mr. Nary for his efforts in bringing this forward and I'd like
to thank the committee for getting together to give us an objective view and, really, to
look long term through ordinance how we can -- how we can justify Mayor and Council's
pay in the future, not just today for this current Council, but in the future and I think it's
something that we need to consider. With that, I would move that we bring forward the
three ordinances for publication on August 30th.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to move the ordinances forward for consideration next
week. Any discussion? Okay. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
C. Park's and Recreation Department - Elroy Huff
1. Award of Bid for Autumn Faire Neiahborhood Park
Development to Hillside Landscape Construction:
De Weerd: Okay. Item 6-C, our Parks and Recreation Department. Elroy.
Huff: Madam Mayor and Members of the Council, I appreciate the opportunity to be
with you tonight and I want to give you a little update on things going on with Autumn
Faire, which is now Seasons Park. That's one park that we have that is not in
connection with a developer. So, we are developing that. We have had it for -- going to
come into possession for many years. I think even since I first came to work. So, now
it's here and so in the process of development we find some interest things there. You
have before you -- we have went out to bid and we were looking for -- to award 234,000
dollars in contract. What we get in that contract is everything except a restroom, a
shelter, and playground equipment. There is a couple other things going on at that site
that I recently got into and one of them is that we were going to have to install our own
pump station on that site and we were going to have to go to an irrigation lake on that
neighborhood park, which is not what I prefer to do. Part of that was because we had a
limited amount of water and we couldn't get enough volume to get across that in an
evening, so that put us into day watering, which tends to have a lot of damage on
sprinklers and get people wet, things like that. So, we were going forward with that and,
then, was contacted by some developers and the irrigation district and there is a
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 16 of 62
development going in a little bit there to the west and they want to add some water to
the Sky Pilot Drain and put in a large pump station over there, they want us to go in that
with them. That is in the works right now. I do not know what it will cost us. Generally
that costs us less that if we had to build our own straight up. So, I'm still working on that
and that's not in this. As well there is another little problem on the site that somewhere
got overlooked, but I know that we recommended some things for that site many years
ago, I think about three or so years ago, and we ended up with water coming into that
site that is enough for a restroom, but not enough for shoulder season watering in
spring and fall before and after irrigation. So, an inch and a half line or an inch line
won't do that, but it will run a restroom. And the problem with all that is in that length of
time streets got installed and so we can't hook to a fire hydrant, because that doesn't
meet our present day codes, so that means we have to go back into the street with
AcHD and work that out and upsize that line coming in so we will have some water
there. So, those are some things we run into when we don't get to work in conjunction
with a developer. So, I have been pleased on a couple of our other little parks that we
are doing right now, because I get past all that, because they are providing that. This
one they are not. But -- so it looks like that if we have already closed our books on our
impact fee amendment, which we did just shortly ago, we would -- in order to award the
current 34,000 dollar contract, we would need to take some of the money that's in the
'06 budget and apply it to this contract and, then, that would enable us to take a look at
the impact fee fund in the spring and if it's healthy enough, then, we could come back
and do an amendment for the restroom, which would give me an opportunity to work on
construction numbers that will be real fresh, which I'm kind of liking to do. But the -- I
find that I can get tied up in losing to high cost of stuff and prices changing. Stuff like
that kind of catches you nowadays, it seems like. So, anyways, what we are looking for
is to be able to award this contract. We have currently about 172,000 in that account.
That will enable us to get things going. When we get into '06 starting October 1 st, we
will use some of that money to help finish this contract out, whatever I can cover for the
pump station and the work in the street, and that will leave us with a restroom -- needing
a restroom, a shelter, and a playground and that's all we will have left to put in that park.
It will be that close.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Okay. What -- Elroy, what -- you have got 172,451 that we can actually add a
contract to and does Hillside Landscape know that, as the apparent low bidder? That
the contract's only going to be for 172,450? And what did you take out as far as the
project that's 172? And, then, after October 1 st we would have to make a budget
amendment right at that point before we could approve the other 63,000 dollars.
Huff: We could do it that way, if I understand it right.
Bird: But are they agreeable to this and everything?
Meridian City Council

Page 17 of 62
Huff: The 234 -- the 234 is with the add-ons. We had some add alternates in there.
Bird: And the bid was over 172.
Huff: Yes. It was just over 172. Don't know if I got that sitting in front of you.
Bird: So, your alternates -- your base bid was -- I can't remember.
Huff: So, that's about -- it's 174 or something like that.
Bird: Yeah.
Huff: So, that was their base and, then, we did some add alternates, so we could see
what those things were going to cost us if we added those in. So, if we add those in we
will have the opportunity to get a lot closer to finishing that.
Bird: But what you're asking for is awarding a contract for 234,341 and we can't do that.
Huff: I see.
Bird: We can only award it for 172,450, which is what you have got in the budget now.
Huff: Right.
Bird: And is Hillside Landscape Construction okay with that?
Huff: That's their base number.
Bird: And they are okay -- no, it's not the base number, it's 2,000 under the base
number.
Huff: Well, I don't know. I didn't -- we haven't talked about that, no. At least 1 haven't.
Bird: And I don't have any problem voting, but I just -- you know, for it, but I hope your
contractor understands that, that after -- it will be after October 1 st, because the Council
has to approve the budget amendment for '06 and, then, they can approve the rest of
the contract. But we can't until then.
Huff: Right.
Bird: We can only -- if you have only got 172,450, that's all we can approve the --
Huff: Okay. I understand that. And, then, we have to amend that. So, we'll have to
talk to them about that.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 18 of 62
Bird: I mean as long as the contractor is fine with it, I have no problem with it, but I just
-- they need to know where --
Huff: Right We are certainly welcome to talk to them about that. There is several
things we haven't talked about yet, so --
Bird: Then, we, basically, can make a motion in consideration of the general contractor
and after you find out, then, the Mayor can sign and Clerk can attest, we can make it on
that -- on the consideration that the contractor would accept that kind of an agreement.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: Elroy, there is a contingency in this bid; is that right?
Huff: No.
Donnell: There is not? The 172 does not include a contingency?
Huff: No.
Donnell: Second question. Follow-up? How many acres is this park?
Huff: It's seven.
Donnell: Did the city purchase this property?
De Weerd: No.
Huff: I think it got give to us a long time ago, but it's just now--
Donnell: And not by the developer. So, there was no responsibility on the part of
anyone to do anything, except --
Huff: There was no responsibility by the developer to help us. There was never
anything offered for that.
Donnell: And so at this point right now, though, we are looking at no restrooms, no
playground equipment, no water fountain, no anything.
Huff: Yeah. Water fountains would be fine.
Donnell: Oh, water fountains. Because we have got water for water fountains?
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 19 of 62
Huff: Yeah. We will be okay there. It's just that we missed getting into the amendment,
because some of our numbers come in late for that, so -- we can certainly go back and
talk to the contractor and, then, work out a little of it and come back in a week or so and
do that, if that's what you'd rather us do.
Donnell: Follow up, Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Donnell: What I'm looking at right here, Elroy, is a contingency of 2,090 and, then,
another contingency of -- so, help me understand why that -- of 13,000 -- 13,300. That
is -- that's showing a base construction of 282,000, though, and that's the total. Total
amount of what we would need do everything.
Huff: The 282, I think, was an estimate.
Donnell: Okay. So, that's what the parks -- what we estimated that it would be? And
so we added in a contingency in there, but the bids don't include a contingency?
Huff: I'm sure they don't. I appreciate you pointing that out to me, Council Bird.
De Weerd: Any further questions from Council?
Bird: I have none, Mayor.
De Weerd: So, you will come back next week with the preferred route?
Huff: Yeah. And I think they will be -- they are good guys to work with, so I think we
can probably get past that easy enough.
De Weerd: Okay.
Donnell: Tell them they probably could adjust for a couple thousand dollars. Just tell
them to be good citizens.
Bird: On that large of bid I agree with you.
Donnell: Absolutely.
Huff: I also will do that. Thank you.

1. Resolution No. 05-487 Ratifvina the Council
Action and Recommendation to the Ada Countv
Hiahwav District for a Downtown Meridian Traffic Plan:
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 20 of 62
De Weerd: Okay. Item B, our Council president.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, the City Council, after a large number of citizen input, as well
as input from our public agencies, has come to a decision, albeit, not a unanimous one,
on what we would like to see within our downtown transportation corridor. Before you
tonight is a resolution to ratify that decision and bring it to the Ada County Highway
District for recommendation. And so that is what we have this evening. Would like to
note for the record that there were two affirmative votes, one vote in opposition and one
abstention on that recommendation.
De Weerd: Okay. And that resolution number is 05-487. And I will need a motion to
approve.
Wardle: With that, Madam Mayor, I move that we approve Resolution No. 05-487.
De Weerd: Do I have a second?
Bird: I'll second it. I was a negative vote, but I'll second it.
De Weerd: Motion to approve Resolution 05-487. Mr. Berg, will you, please, call roll.
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Nary: Could I just -- this is for the record, so that it's clear. All the Council is doing by
voting on this is ratifying that's the action the Council took. It doesn't mean you're
necessarily in agreement with that. Councilmember Rountree did abstain from the
original vote. He doesn't have to abstain from this vote if he doesn't want to, because it
is simply acknowledging that was the action the Council took. It's not an agreement or
it's not an affirmative approval or denial of it at all, so --
Donnell: Thank you for that clarification.
Rountree: Thank you for that clarification.
De Weerd: We appreciate that, Mr. Nary. Okay. Mr. Berg.
Berg: Madam Mayor, if we read the title of the resolution, you probably got that
information from what the attorney said. It's just a ratification of the Council's action.
Bird: Aye. But I want an explanation to reaffirm what -- even though I was negative on
it, this is just what was passed unanimously, so I'm aye on it now.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.

Item 7:
Items Moved from Consent Agenda:
C. Development Agreement: AZ. 05-019 Request for Annexation
and Zoning of 10.9 acres from RUT to C-G zone for Dorado
Subdivision by Kimball Properties, LLC - NWC of South Eagle
Road and East Overland Road:
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Item 7-C was removed to this and I imagine Mr. Nary or
Brad?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Nary: I asked to remove it and just for clarification purposes, I don't -- the Council can
go forward and take this action on this development agreement tonight. It has been
signed by Mr. Moore of the W.H. Moore Company in regards to Dorado Subdivision.
The only clarification I just wanted to make clear, the Council had discussion last week
about this project and had made some directions on the record as to conditions. Those
conditions are in the development agreement; the developer is in agreement with them.
They are not exactly what is the Findings and you had directed some amendments to
those Findings take place. They haven't been completed yet, but you can take the
action, because of the agreement, which is what is binding on the developer. He is
clear with what you asked for. They will get cleaned up and the Findings will get
finalized and the staff will do that. They were wanting to make sure the minutes were
done and completed and all that. But I just wanted you to be aware that the agreement
itself -- if you have read them both, you would notice they are probably not exactly the
same, but the agreement is what your direction was and they are in agreement with it,
so you can go forward on it if you wish. I don't know if Mr. Hawkins-Clark has any other
comment, but I just wanted you to be aware of that before you approved them.
De Weerd: Okay. Any questions from Council? I would entertain a motion.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I move we approve 7-C, the development agreement with Dorado Subdivision.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to approve development agreement AZ 05-019. If there is no
further discussion, Mr. Berg, will you call roll.

Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 23 of 62
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you. This application, NO.9 and No. 10, are regarding Enclave
Subdivision. It's currently -- would be defined as an in-fill parcel by our code. It does
have city limits, as you can see on the slide, on the north and on the east and on the
south. The out parcel that's shown on the west is not a part of either the annexation
request or the preliminary plat request. The only access that this parcel has is from the
south, Inglenook Subdivision. The aerial photo, as you can see here, there is an
existing house on the property that currently takes its access directly off of Locust Grove
Road on a driveway across the north side of the property. The Nine Mile Creek borders
here on their east boundary. The Planning and Zoning Commission made a few
changes recommended on this plat. Here is the preliminary plat that reflects a couple of
the changes that the Planning and Zoning Commission asked for. As you can see, they
are essentially bringing in a public street and proposing to construct a hammerhead,
which would be designed to Meridian fire department specs, so it will allow for -- as a
turn around for both fire engines and the sanitary service company's vehicles. Then, at
the end of that public right of way they are proposing a common driveway that would
extend off the end of that on both ends. As you can see, it extends a little bit further
here on the west than it does on the east. But each of these new lots, nine of them,
single family lots and, then, one common would -- would take access directly off of
either the public street or those common driveways, as well as the existing house. The
existing house would not take any -- would not have access to Locust Grove directly
any longer. One of the P&Z Commission's conditions was to construct bollards here on
this driveway, so that it would serve as emergency access only, so there would be
another way to access this subdivision for emergency purposes. But they would -- they
would take their access off of the new street that would be constructed. The Planning
and Zoning Commission did recommend approval of this with conditions. There were
three members of the public that commented at the hearing. The main change that the
Commission made was on these common driveways that extend off of here. They
wanted to see curb, gutter, and sidewalk continued, so that it would really have the
appearance of a street as you're going east or west and not suddenly choke down and
taper down to look just like a driveway. So, you would still have pedestrian
opportunities there. So, they asked for that change to be made. There is also a ten-
foot wide pedestrian easement on the -- along the Nine Mile Drain. You can see this
dashed line right here that extends off the common drive and, then, connects in along
this pathway, which does go to the north and the south. I think the only recommended
change that I would have on Exhibit C, site specific condition number one, is would be
to eliminate the first sentence, which currently refers to a plat dated June 1, 2005, but
the preliminary plat that they revised has a date of August 10. So, there is an incorrect
reference there. And with that I can take any questions.
De Weerd: Okay. Any questions from Council?
Bird: I have none, Mayor.
De Weerd: Is the applicant here? Good evening. If you will, please, state your name
and address for the record.

De Weerd: Okay. Item 11 is a Public Hearing on AZ 05-032. I will open with staff
comments.
Hawkins-Clark: Madam Mayor, staff was just prepared to give you an overview, but the
applicant came to the staff table and is requesting a table, so could I turn it over to the
applicant right now?
De Weerd: Yes. If you will, please, state your name and address.
Jewett: Jim Jewett, 516 South Capitol in Boise. I have to apologize to Council and the
neighbors that are here tonight. As I was driving here I noticed there was no notice on
the property, so I don't have knowledge that we have a proper notice. So, I don't know
if you can go forward without that notice that we are supposed to provide.
De Weerd: Okay. Well, we appreciate your honesty on that. Mr. Berg, if that's not
properly noticed will we need to re-notice to the neighbors and post the property?
Berg: Madam Mayor, our attorney has an opinion on what that process is.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 26 of 62
De Weerd: Okay. He never has an opinion.
Nary: Madam Mayor, what we -- the process we have been following is that if one of
the notices are improper, that we do need to provide proper notice according to the
statute and we have had -- as you probably recall, we have had a number of these
where the property didn't get posted. We have set the matter over and we have only
reposted the property. We didn't resend mailed notice and the like. There are members
in the audience. It's up to the Council and yourself, if you want to hear from them
tonight. It is cumbersome to do that and, then, have a hearing later, so -- but that's
certainly within your discretion. But all we need to do is repost the property and, then,
reset the matter beyond the ten days that are required for that.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any comments?
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Yeah. I have no problem setting it and we probably ought to set it for the 13th of
September at this point, so to make sure we have plenty of time to get the notice. But I
wonder if there is any of the public here that was here to testify that cannot make it back
for the 13th that would need to testify tonight? I'm like the counsel and -- I'd rather hear
it on the night of the hearing than do it now, but if there is somebody that can't make it
back on the 13th of September, then, I certainly welcome their testimony at this point, if
that's your desire.
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, the property notice is only ten days, so
you can require that it be reposted and do it on the 6th if you want to. You can certainly
do it on the 13th. It's not 15 days like your mailed notices, so just you know you don't
have to set it that far away if you don't want to.
De Weerd: Well, that's the day after Labor Day.
Bird: Yeah. We are getting the 6th awful loaded.
De Weerd: Okay. Well, we apologize to any of the public that were here to testify on
this application. Is there anyone here who will not be able to join us on September 13th
who would like to provide testimony this evening? Okay. Again, please accept our
apologies and, Council, I need a motion.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Bird.

Item 12:

acres to R-8 zone for Maxfield Subdivision by The Land Group - 3295
East Falcon Drive:
Item 13:
Public Hearing: PP 05-027 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 2
residential building lots on 4.7 acres in a proposed R-8 zone for Maxfield
Subdivision by The Land Group - 3295 East Falcon Drive:
Item 14:
Public Hearing: CUP 05-034 Request for a Conditional Use Permit I
Planned Development approval for one single-family home and five
retirement homes on two lots in a R-8 zone for Maxfield Subdivision by
The Land Group - 3295 East Falcon Drive:
De Weerd: Items 12, 13 and 14 are public hearings AZ 05-027, PP 05-027, and CUP
05-034. I will open these three public hearings with staff comments.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you. And as far as I know, this one was noticed correctly. This
application is for property on the east side of Eagle Road. South Eagle Road. This is
about 700 feet south of Victory. This is the intersection of Victory and Eagle Road. The
Kingsbridge Subdivision that the City Council approved fairly recently is located to the
south and to the east. The project is currently Ada County zoning. RUT. And they are
proposing to annex with an R-8 zone. The Comprehensive Plan, just to clarify why they
are requesting a residential zone for the assisted living use, the Comprehensive Plan
designates this area as medium density residential. That's what it envisioned and we
have interpreted that medium density residential would allow for these senior assisted
living -- you know, very residential character kinds of buildings to be permitted. They
are really not viewed as commercial projects. So, we have recognized that the R-8
zone fits in the medium density residential. Assisted living facilities or, as our ordinance
currently states them as retirement homes, says that they are a conditional use in the R-
8. The density would actually allow them to go with a lesser zone. However, the zoning
ordinance's schedule of use does not allow for these retirement centers in the R-4 or the
R-3 or the R-2, so they, in some ways, were forced to request the R-8 in order to get a
Conditional Use Permit. So, that's the reason for the zone request being R-8. As you
can see, there is a residence that's here on the northeast corner of the property. They
are proposing to take no access off of Eagle Road, no new curb cuts would be
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 28 of 62
constructed. All of their access points would be from the existing Falcon -- Falcon
Drive. Let's see. I'll go to this site plan, it might be a little easier to read off of. So, their
curb cut that they are proposing is after you come off Falcon Drive, would be located
here just to the west of the existing house, which is here in this corner, once again. So,
they are proposing to construct at their first phase two of the assisted living buildings
and I'll flip through the elevations. You can see the rear elevation here on the top and
the front elevation on the bottom. And, then, the side elevations are shown here. So,
they are single level. They are proposing some rock wainscoting on the bottom strip.
The construction style is pretty similar to the cottages which the same applicant has at
Ten Mile and the Bridgetower area. Just to give you an idea that that's the product that
they are looking at. So, again, those two buildings would be constructed in the first
phase here. They are proposing a clubhouse as well as an amenity. The Planning and
Zoning Commission is recommending approval. The three changes that they discussed
and are forwarding on to you are -- the first one deals with the development agreement.
The staff originally did not say that a development agreement would be necessary, but
the Commission felt that that was important to help insure the residents that that was --
that this is the project that will be built. And so they have essentially said no more than
five new buildings can be constructed, plus the clubhouse on the property. The second
change that they are recommending is that a five-foot tall vinyl fence be constructed
around the full perimeter. And, then, the last one has to do with the clubhouse amenity.
Staff originally felt that the clubhouse should be constructed after the third building was
constructed. They are asking that it be after the fourth. So, that would leave just one
building left before the clubhouse technically would have to be constructed. So, that's
more of a timing issue. The other amenities that they are looking at as part of this
planned development are the ten percent open space and the gazebo. As you can see,
most of this shaded area here is landscaped area and open space area. The buildings
will be sprinklered. That was a condition that the fire department asked for and I think,
actually, building code probably requires it in these facilities. All of the residents would
be ambulatory. I think the only other thing to point out -- the annexation does include
the entire property, but they are requesting that this existing house not hook up to city
water and sewer at annexation, they are asking that they not be required to hook that up
until they construct phase two, which, again, follows generally this dashed line here
across the bottom of the slide. And I will end staff's comments there.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any questions for staff? Is the applicant here? Would you
like to provide testimony? If you will, please, state your name and address.
Maxfield: I'm Gerald Maxfield, owner and operator of the Cottages. My address is 1920
South Mayflower Way in Boise.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Maxfield: Up until recently that was a Meridian address, but we were just annexed to
the fine City of Boise.
Donnell: And we are sorry.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 29 of 62
Maxfield: Yeah. Any of you that have seen our project over in Bridgetower, this was
the same -- all our buildings are the same. The only thing that really changes, of
course, is the site and, therefore, the landscaping a little bit, but it will be just as nice as
what we have done at Bridgetower as what we are doing here. We have met with the
neighbors a number of times and addressed any concerns there. We are fine with the
conditions that staff has recommended, with a couple of comments. We are fine with
the development agreement that's been proposed. The vinyl fencing is something that
we were going to do anyway, but it was not addressed on our site plan, so that was an
oversight on our part. We are certainly fine with that. The written comments mention
the clubhouse being done with phase one and that was never our intent. It was our
intent to do that with phase two. And as Brad was speaking about that a minute ago, I
think he actually worded that it would be after the fourth building. We are actually okay
at doing it with the fourth building, which would set that time line up possibly quite a bit.
I think that's the extent of my comments. I'm certainly available for any questions.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any questions for the applicant?
Bird: I have none, Mayor.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: This might be a question for Brad or it could be a question for you, Mr.
Maxfield. You mentioned that the existing house is not being required to hook up to city
water and sewer. Is that by their request or by the city's or -- I didn't quite understand
what and why.
Hawkins-Clark: No. If I said that I was incorrect. They will hook it up, it's just that they
are asking that it not be hooked up with phase one.
Donnell: And that is by the owner's request or is that--
Hawkins-Clark: Yes.
Donnell: -- the applicant's request? The owner's. Of the existing --
Hawkins-Clark: Oh, of the existing -- I don't know. You will have to ask Mr. -- Gerald.
Maxfield: We are actually okay with hooking it up as part of phase one. The thing that I
didn't want to do was to hook it up prior to our construction. That was the only thing that
I was really concerned about.
Donnell: Okay.

Maxfield: I just wanted to do it as a part of our construction project.
Donnell: Okay.
Rountree: With phase one.
Maxfield: With phase one.
Donnell: Okay. Thank you.
De Weerd: Any other questions from Council? Okay. Thank you.
Maxfield: Thank you.
De Weerd: Is there anyone here tonight that would like to provide testimony? If you
will, please, state your name and address.
Turner: Good evening, Madam Mayor. My name is Brady Turner, I live at 3678 South
Caleb Place in Meridian and that's in the Dartmoor Subdivision just to the south. In
meeting with Mr. Maxfield on the development, the primary concern of the neighbors
was the increase in the zoning from the low density R-3 to the upper density -- or the
higher density R-8. We do understand that this is driven by the conditional use and the
schedule of uses -- permitted uses of the City of Meridian, not necessarily the zoning or
the actual density of the buildings. So, we -- as long as the condition three in your
Exhibit D of the staff report is incorporated into the conditions of approval, which
requires that a development agreement be entered into between the city and the
developer that limits the site to no more than six additional primary structures, we feel
that this would address our concerns about the increase in density should this project
not go through or to up to defer, if you will, setting any future precedence's on this
adjacent property development. So, with that we are fine with what they have
proposed.
De Weerd: Great. Thank you. Is there any further testimony on this application? Mr.
Maxfield, do you have any final words? Okay. Council?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I'd like to make a motion that we close the Public Hearing on Items 12, 13 and
14.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to close the Public Hearing on Items 12 through 14. All those

Donnell: Yes. That was including all staff comments.
Bird: I agree with you, Christine.
Donnell: Okay. And there are Findings? Oh, amend the Findings as such. Oh, you're

Bird: You're doing a great job.
Item 15:
Public Hearing: VAR 05-015 Request for a Variance to allow a reduced
front setback and approve the removal of the deed restriction placed on
this lot for Bedford Place Subdivision by Brighton Corporation - 596
East Edgar Street:
De Weerd: You're doing fine. Okay. Item 15. Public Hearing VAR 05-015. I will open
this Public Hearing with staff comments.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. This variance
request is for a single-family residential lot in Bedford Place Subdivision here on the
south side of Ustick between Meridian Road, about a quarter mile to the west, and
Locust Grove. The application that you read goes into a good explanation in terms of
why they are requesting this variance. There is a single family residence on the
property today, which has a little over 11 foot front setback off of the -- what's the name
of that -- East Edgar Street. And the addition was placed on in the mid '90s. It did
receive City of Meridian approval, but it was apparently put on -- this is the existing
house on the parent parcel, as I understand it, and prior to the actual -- this house being
put on a lot is when they applied for the building permit to expand the residence -- the
living area and go closer than the required 20 feet. I'll let Mr. Turnbull explain some of
the history in terms of their ownership on the property, but there was a life estate
involved and some other agreements that were made with the owner at the time. The
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 34 of 62
owner did pass away last year and so there is a provision in the life estate that no
longer is in effect. The bottom line here is that they did place a deed restriction on this
lot, which stated that they could have the reduced setback until that current owner either
moved -- either moved away or was no longer the owner. At that point, then, they would
have to comply with the city ordinance for the 20-foot setback. So, the variance is they
apparently changed their mind and would now like to retain the house as it is and they
need a variance in order to accomplish that. So, there is sort of a two-pronged decision
before you, I think. I don't know if the attorney needs to clarify or not, but I think we,
essentially, have the variance, number one, would be for the setback, but, then, there is
also a request to approve a change to the -- to this deed restriction, which I'm not sure
of the technical process we need to do that, but they are asking, basically, for the City
Council's approval of that. So, I think that's a summary of the application. The staff
report that you have prepared by Craig Hood, he makes an analysis of all the Findings.
He does find that there is not a significant impact on this community as the house is
and, in fact, I think their application states they talked to some of the neighbors who
really don't have an issue with it. But, as you know, we have to make all the Findings or
you have to make all the Findings, really, to grant a variance and we cannot find where
this was a situation that can't be remedied. So, we are recommending denial.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any questions for staff at this time?
Bird: I have none, Mayor.
De Weerd: Okay. Is the applicant here? If you will, please, state your name and
address for the record.
Turnbull: Good evening, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. David Turnbull.
12601 West Explorer Drive, Boise.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Turnbull: Appreciate Brad's presentation of the staff report. Just give you a little
background. We acquired this property in -- it was on my birthday, actually, in 1994.
And when -- we granted in that acquisition -- Mrs. Davis owned the property and she
was an elderly woman at the time and a widow and wanted to remain on the property
until her death and so we granted her a life estate in the property and she just passed
away, actually, last year. She was in her 90s somewhere. When we acquired the
property and we layout our preliminary plat, we had an existing problem with her house,
which was the garage, which would have conflicted with the required setbacks and so
we, actually, relocated -- constructed a new garage in this area right here to mitigate
that setback requirement. We actually acquired the property and we were into the
development of the property and Mrs. Davis took her own initiative and decided she
wanted to build a sunroom or a family room on the front. We weren't aware, really, of
that condition, but she built -- the house ended about right there and so this is the little
family room that she built on the front. I don't think anybody knew that that was a
problem. The city, obviously, issued a building permit to Mrs. Davis and, really, didn't
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 35 of 62
become an issue until we were into our final phase of development and during the
platting and construction process we discovered that it was a problem with a setback
issue and we brought it to the city and the city engineer wasn't willing to sign the final
plat without the deed restriction, So, to say that we agreed to it was kind of like a
shotgun type of -- we didn't really have any choice at the time, so -- I want to hand out
just a couple of photos from across the street that will, hopefully, give you a little bit of a
picture.
De Weerd: I turn around in that driveway all the time. I drop my daughter across the
street from there.
Turnbull: The first picture there shows just the basic house. It shows you the sun room
or family room out front. Shows you the garage on the right. I don't know how far that
garage is set back, but it's substantially more than 20 feet. And, then, I took a picture
kind of showing off to the right-hand side of the property in relation to the existing home
there on the right. So, hopefully that gives you a little bit of a picture of the property. I
just want go through Craig's staff report and just make a couple of comments. In
required finding A, he states that -- this is more tongue in cheek, but he says the
applicant could fairly easily reconstruct the home so it complies with all the setback
requirements and I was just wondering if Craig would come out on the weekend and we
could just shove that back about five or ten feet. It's not a simple thing. It's not -- it's not
easily done. You know, it's not impossible, but it's not easily done. And the other
comment that we acknowledged the substance setback and we agreed to comply with
the 20-foot setback in the future, I have addressed that already, that, really, we didn't
have a choice at the time. And I don't want this to sound like I'm pointing fingers,
because this is just one of those things that happens, but, you know, the city received a
building permit application from Mrs. Davis and approved that application. B, I want to
point out that the staff acknowledges that -- the last sentence there, staff acknowledges
that if this variance were granted it would not inhibit the general achievement objectives
contained in Title 11. And, then, in item number C and D, I think that they are in full
agreement with -- you know, that none of this would be injurious or would have a
detrimental effect on the title of the Comprehensive Plan. So, I guess that we are in
agreement with about two-thirds of everything that the staff presented here. They -- the
questions remaining are, to my mind, three things. Does a strict enforcement of this
benefit anyone and I believe the answer is no. Does a strict enforcement harm anyone?
Well, I believe the answer is yes and, number one, it's going to be costly. Number two,
it will decrease the value of the property, which means less tax revenue to the city and
also would diminish the property values for the surrounding neighbors. So, I don't think
that it's a benefit -- in fact, I'm not so sure that taking off that sunroom wouldn't take it
down below the minimum square footage for the neighborhood. I can't verify that, but it
is a significant part of the house. And, then, third, I'd ask you to consider is there an
unusual circumstance here that would justify granting the variance. And, like I said, I'm
not pointing any fingers, but you know --
Rountree: Go ahead.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 36 of 62
Turnbull: Well, no, I don't want to blame anybody, because this is -- this is really a
situation of unintended consequences. But the city did grant the building permit after
our preliminary plat was approved and it was in -- you know, which caused the setback
issue with our preliminary plat There was no way to modify our preliminary or final plat
and so we were stuck with that situation. So, I would ask that the City Council find that
there is an unusual circumstance here that would warrant the granting of the variance
and appreciate your favorable consideration and I'll stand for any questions.
De Weerd: Council, any questions for the applicant?
Bird: I have none.
Rountree: I have none.
Donnell: None.
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Nary.
Nary: Can I ask a question?
De Weerd: I asked Council if they had any.
Bird: He's a counsel man.
Rountree: He's a counsel man.
De Weerd: Wrong spelling. Yes, Mr. Nary.
Nary: Thank you. Mr. Turnbull, one of the things you asked for was a -- also for the
Council to grant this waiver -- or I guess rescission of the deed restriction.
Turnbull: Correct.
Nary: But was the deed restriction prepared by the city? I mean we can record a
Council action.
Turnbull: Yes.
Nary: But I don't -- but we wouldn't normally prepare a deed -- a new deed for you. So,
I guess I would be curious about that application.
Turnbull: I believe that the city would just need to agree to recording a document that
lifts that restriction.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 37 of 62
Nary: Okay. Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Okay. Is there anyone here present that would like to
offer testimony on this application? It is a mystery solved, though. I don't know if I'm
okay to turn around in -- I always wondered about that house.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Bird.
Bird: Seeing nobody jumping up to testify, I move we close the Public Hearing on VAR
05-015.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to close the Public Hearing on Item 15. All those in favor say
aye. All ayes. Motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I'm prepared to make a motion to approve VAR 05-015, the request for a variance
to allow a reduced front setback and approve the removal of the deed restriction placed
on the lot for Bedford Place Subdivision by Brighton Corp at 596 East Edgar Street, to
include all staff and applicant comments.
Wardle: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Would that also include instructions for the attorney to draw up --
Bird: The Findings of Facts, Conclusions of Law, and decision of order.
Rountree: And the reason why.
Bird: And the reason why is because we give them a building permit and didn't check.
Wardle: Second agrees.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Nary, do you need any further instruction?
Nary: No. That was what I was going to ask to clarify and so that it would --
Bird: When he looked at me, I --
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 38 of 62
Nary: The direction of the Council is the unusual circumstance and two of the findings
that need to be made is based upon the city's action in regards to a building permit
being used and that would distinguish it, then, from the other circumstances that we see
occasionally where the city did not have any involvement, didn't issue a permit, and,
then, somebody just built something on their own volition. So, we can distinguish that in
the order, so --
De Weerd: Okay.
Bird: See, Christine, I just sit closer to the attorney to keep me in line.
Donnell: I see. Got it.
De Weerd: If there is no further discussion, Mr. Berg, will you call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Item 16:
Public Hearing: TCU 05-001 Request for transfer of Conditional Use
Permit for a childcare center for ABC Childcare and Preschool by Leslie
Gonzalez - 650 West Broadway Avenue
De Weerd: Okay. Item 16 is a Public Hearing on TCU 05-001. Open this Public
Hearing with staff comments.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. This application is
for the property located at 650 West Broadway Avenue, as shown on the screen. It's
surrounded by higher density R-15 zoning on the north, south, and east. On the -- or,
I'm sorry, on the south side it's got industrial zoning. There is four-plexes on the north
and west, single-family residence to the east, and, then, a manufacturing yard, Capital
Concrete Products, has their yard there across the street, across Broadway. The
property today has this structure on it, which is being used as a day care, a child care
center, and what the applicant is proposing to do is to transfer the Conditional Use
Permit that was granted on this property to her under a new name. The parking area
you can see is shown here. This is a shot from kind of right on their property line,
generally about on Broadway, looking to the north and to the west. There is a couple of
questions, I guess, that staff would just like the applicant to address before the Council
tonight, that I'm not sure were completely covered in the staff report, but Joe Guenther's
staff report does ask for clarification on their staffing and parking demands. There are
four parking spaces on the site today. The proposed 24 children by ordinance would
require five parking spaces. So, they would be one parking space short, if they were to
have 24 children. So, we do need to have on the record some clarification on that.
Also, the ten foot buffer landscaping ordinance requires ten feet of landscaping beyond
local streets. So, in this case -- sorry, I don't think we have a site plan in our slide show,
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 39 of 62
but this parking lot -- the cars -- there is two cars that park this way and, then, there is
two cars in the garage. So, the ordinance would technically require ten feet, basically,
from the property line adjacent to Broadway, then, into this site. So, it would be helpful
to clarify if that would eliminate one of the stalls, If so, then, it would be two short. So,
we need that confirmed on the record as well. And, then, on, finally, I think -- let's see.
B-5. Exhibit S, No.5, of the staff report talks about the driveway and having a 44-foot
wide curb cut, essentially. When Joe did a site visit he doesn't say when this was done,
he makes the point that it was new asphalt that was poured at approximately 44 feet in
width. Normally, Ada County Highway District doesn't allow driveways serving these
single-family residents to be anymore than 30. So, I guess the question is when was
that done and has Ada County Highway District approved the 44-foot width. So, I think
with those questions being answered and clarified, we may -- staff -- you know, I may
have some more questions. But I think if we could start with that.
De Weerd: Okay. Any questions for staff, Council?
Bird: I have none, Mayor,
De Weerd: Okay. Is the applicant here?
Gonzalez: Good evening.
De Weerd: Good evening. If you will, please, state your name and address.
Gonzalez: Yes. My name is Leslie Gonzalez. The address is 650 West Broadway
Avenue, Meridian, Idaho. 83642. I'm here tonight -- first, I'll clarify your question. The
actually writing of the application process was from four and a half years ago when the
current owner Janet and Dahl Torgensen had applied and because it's a transfer, when
I spoke with Nancy in the city clerk's office, she said that it's the same paperwork that is
transferred along with this. The parking -- there is actually five parking spaces. There
is one that's ADA approved. There are two parking spaces inside the garage where the
staff parks, and two additional parking spaces outside and they face east and west, not
north and south parking. The landscaping issue has already been corrected as of about
four and a half years ago. It has a berm and with heavy foliage to eliminate any
headlight problems for neighbors when customers are coming in and out. Is that -- oh,
the 44 foot driveway. ACHD approved that with a driveway in exchange for the
Torgensens to put in sidewalks, gutters, and curbs. So, that's all been taken care of.
And ACHD sent with this application a letter that says that there is nothing that needs to
be done. It was in our package that was sent to me yesterday. Can I answer your
questions?
De Weerd: My son is their neighbor, so I feel like a kid's night tonight.
Gonzalez: Had I known you needed someone to say the pledge of allegiance, we could
have brought the children, because they say it every morning, and nothing will touch
your heart than hearing two, three, and four year olds say the pledge of allegiance.
Meridian City Council
August 23,2005
Page 40 of 62
De Weerd: Very true.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: Would you clarify, again, the parking. You said there are five parking spaces,
one ADA, and you said two staff --
Gonzalez: Two staff parking spaces in the garage.
Donnell: -- in the garage. And two outside.
Gonzalez: And two more --
Donnell: And two more --
Gonzalez: So, there is ADA, two parking spaces outside, for a total of three, plus two
staff parking in the garage.
Donnell: Okay.
Gonzalez: That fulfills the requirement -- at least it did four and a half years ago.
De Weerd: Brad, did you have additional questions?
Hawkins-Clark: I'm having a little deja' vu, Mayor, because I -- as I was reading through
this application I thought a lot of this sounded familiar. I think --
Gonzalez: When I spoke with Nancy in the clerk's office, she said because it's a
transfer of a Conditional Use Permit that all the paperwork stays the same.
Hawkins-Clark: Yeah. So, my apologies. I don't think that was made clear by Joe, who
did the research and the staff report on this, so we should have -- I think if -- the choice
for your transfer is all -- so, yeah, they, essentially, have complied with the original one.
I was confused and now I'm not. So, I appreciate that.
Gonzalez: We just want the opportunity to continue serving the families of Meridian.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Gonzalez: Are there any questions?
Donnell: No.
Meridian City Council

Bird: I have none.
De Weerd: Thank you so much. We appreciate your energy. Is there anyone who
would like to provide testimony on this application? Okay. Council?
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I move we close Public Hearing TCU 05-001.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to close Item 16. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion
carries.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I move that we approve Item 16 for the transfer of the Conditional Use
Permit.
Bird: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to approve Item 16. Is there any further discussion? That
includes the Findings?
Rountree: Always,
De Weerd: Always.
Berg: Madam Mayor, just a question, because I didn't see any Findings, so I was going
to ask if we needed Findings or a condition of order or something of that nature. This is
a transfer, so it's kind of unique. Okay. So, we will prepare Findings for approval next
consent item. Two weeks.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
De Weerd: Thank you. And thank you.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 42 of 62
Gonzalez: Does that mean we are not approved until two weeks when it goes though
consent item or can I close this deal?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary, what does this mean?
Nary: Well, Madam Mayor, I mean, technically, until you approve the Finding and the
order, it isn't a final decision of the Council. So, if it's an issue about closing on a sale,
technically, they should probably wait until it's actually finalized to do that, but --
Donnell: Then could we --
Nary: Mr. Berg has an opinion.
Berg: Madam Mayor, could we prepare that information next week and I could put it on
to the special agenda, that seems to be getting longer, but--
Bird: The 30th we are having a regular meeting I see now.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I mean certainly I wouldn't anticipate a
change in this particular application, but I mean if they want -- if they need all the T's
crossed, we can certainly do it by next Tuesday. Because it is a conditional use
transfer, you are safer to have Findings and an order, rather than just taking,
essentially, the action tonight. So, you don't have it finalized in front of you. But, again,
I can't anticipate a change, but I mean the risk is theirs, but -- unless there is something
with the SBA loan that requires your final approval before they close, it's just the comfort
level of the buyer that you're not going to change your mind.
Donnell: We are not going to change our mind.
Nary: I certainly wouldn't anticipate that, but --
De Weerd: Okay. Well, we will ask the appropriate papers be prepared for next week--
Nary: We can do that.
De Weerd: -- for Council action. Okay.
Berg: Madam Mayor, if they need a draft copy of the minutes for any reason, we might
have them Friday. So, if you need to take that to the bank for any reason.
Item 17:
Public Hearing: MI 05-008 Request to modify the approved
Development Agreement for Cedar Sprinas Professional Center by
Lynn Brown - northeast corner of Venable Lane and West Ustick Road:
De Weerd: Item 17 is Public Hearing MI 05-008. I will open this Public Hearing with
staff comments.
Meridian City Council
August 23,2005
Page 43 of 62
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Mayor, Members of the Council. This application -- it's a
miscellaneous application, which is the application that we traditionally use for
amending development agreements. And you have seen this property a few different
times in the past. It is shown here on the north side of Ustick. Venable Lane. This is
the half-mile point between Meridian and Under Road. About a year and a half ago --
this map doesn't reflect it, but this property was approved for a rezone to that c-N,
neighborhood commercial. So, it should be red. I'm not sure why it's not, but -- and at
that time, excuse me, the applicant got approval for this plat, along with a Conditional
Use Permit. Have a -- it functions like a private street that was approved here. All of
this infrastructure has been constructed, by the way, so if you have been out there, you
have probably seen their curb cut off of Ustick, as well as Venable. There are seven-
foot sidewalks on both. Anyway, the point of the meeting tonight is for this Lot 1, which
they were approved for a car wash facility and a coffee kiosk down in this corner, with
some vacuum units here next to Venable Lane. And the Conditional Use Permit said
that they would have hours -- limited hours of operation for certain uses. It also said
that there would -- the only uses on this would be the car wash and the coffee kiosk.
So, what they have now that there is a new owner, they have a proposal to convert a
portion of their approved car wash area to a convenience store. These are the
elevations that were approved about a year and a half ago with the application. The
south elevation, which is the one facing Ustick Road as shown here, they are -- as you
can see, it's a well designed building. Their office units kind of compliment this in terms
of the materials, but they are proposing to take a portion of this front area and change
that to -- the first bay not to be a car wash, but to be a convenience store, I think
somewhere between 1 ,600 square feet, 2,000 square feet, somewhere in that area. So,
they are proposing that their development agreement be -- permit C stores. As
proposed it would actually allow them everywhere on the site. I don't think that was
their intention, but just for staff's clarification we added in our report that it would actually
only apply to Lot 1, but that's, of course, up for your discussion. In terms of the hours of
operation, on page two of the staff report I listed there that the drive-thru coffee-stand
was limited from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and that fuel delivery and refrigerated truck
operations were 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. They are requesting 24-hour operation on this --
on this lot. They currently have 24 hour for the car wash and fuel pump, but the coffee
stand was limited and I think, you know, that was, in part, just because of the increased
traffic that would be generated by that, as compared to a car wash, which is far more
intermittent throughout the day. I also included in there the -- the Council's action. I feel
there is probably three main questions that you want to consider tonight in your
deliberations. One is was there neighborhood opposition or concerns to retail or C
stores at the original hearing and there were two members of the public, Mr. Joe
Simunich, as well as Mr. Bill Jackson, who did testify before you and both of them did
raise concerns about auto-oriented uses in this area. The motion -- I also listed there
Councilman Wardle specifically mentioned a Maverick convenience store, saying that
that's not what you were looking at at the time and that's true, you weren't, but that was
one of the reasons that you could infer was for approval there. It was clarified on the
record, then, that the C stores would be permitted without a Conditional Use Permit and
that, of course, the ordinance remains the same, they would not require a Conditional
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005

Use permit, since they have the C-N zoning. Except for the fact that they have to
amend this development agreement. So, that was my first question. The second
question we thought was important was do these modifications conform to the zoning
ordinance in the Comprehensive Plan and I think, in fact, they do. I mean the ordinance
does not address 24-hour operations. We typically -- recognize that commercially
zoned land has that as a possibility and restrictions have been placed, as was on this
application, to help protect the area, if there were neighbor concerns. But to allow a 24-
hour operation would not violate any zoning ordinance, since it's not addressed. The
Comprehensive Plan would clearly allow it. It actually encourages these kinds of
service oriented uses in these neighborhood center areas. Then, the third question
posed was a C store an appropriate use adjacent to an elementary school -- in this case
a future elementary school. I did have a brief phone conversation with Wendell Bigham,
who stated that they have no concerns -- no comments I guess were his actual words,
that they have addressed this issue in other areas and since Idaho code is addressing
several things regarding schools, in this case none of those issues, in terms of liquor
sales or sexually explicit materials, those are addressed in state code and he says that's
really what we relay on. So, the traffic concern with regard to the school is somewhat
unclear. We do know that AcHD calculated higher traffic for C-stores than they do for
car washes and -- but beyond that I think that's open to your interpretation. So, we are
recommending approval of the change. We do recommend a restriction that the C store
use in the 24 hour operation be only on Lot 1 and not apply to all five lots. So, I think
these development agreements -- if you approve them, we, essentially, go back and
modify them. It's really not an opportunity to change conditions. The last point is that
during our meeting preparing for this today, I did bring up with the attorneys the fact that
the Conditional Use Permit has these same conditions as the development agreement
and I failed to point that out to the applicant a couple months ago when they first started
talking to us that -- that you probably need to change the Conditional Use Permit as
well. So, the only thing they filed was to change the development agreement, but it's
the exact same conditions that are in both the Conditional Use Permit and the
development agreement. The attorneys are recommending that if you move this on,
that in order to at least get the public informed that the Conditional Use Permit would
change, that we put it on an agenda in two weeks, that there is a change to the
Conditional Use Permit for this sight. We wouldn't -- after re-notice or repost we have
accomplished that with this meeting, but -- am I getting that right, Mr. Nary? I think,
essentially, we would have to put it on the agenda in two weeks.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, you know, what our recommendation
would be is that if -- we don't do these like this anymore, because of this exact problem
that you may have. We have had conditions in our development agreement that don't
really belong there and so you have these two different processes to follow to make an
amendment to it, but to be safe and to make sure, if that is your desire, then, your
direction to staff can be to amend this application to include the request to amend the
Conditional Use Permit as well, we can notice that on the agenda. It is the exact same
people, so sending another mailed notice is really not necessary, in my opinion.
Anyone who had interest would certainly be here today. You can continue this matter
for two weeks. It would reflect on the agenda that you have amended the application to
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 45 of 62
include the conditional use. It's the same information that you would be seeking from
the public, if there is anyone from the public here to testify. So, you can still make the
same decision, it's more of a house cleaning -- a way of doing it to make sure that when
we amend the development agreement we don't have to come back through with the
same amendment to the CU. Again, we don't have this come up -- we shouldn't have
this come up in our newer ones since 'last year, because we don't do it this way
anymore. But that would be the cleanest way to make sure that the CU gets amended
as well, if that's your desire to do that.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Nary. Any questions for staff at this time? Is the applicant
here?
Fluke: Good evening, Madam Mayor and Members of the Council. My name is Daren
Fluke is the JUB Engineers, 250 South Beechwood in Boise.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Fluke: This application falls in the category of best laid plans. When we submitted this
application about a year and a half ago, the owner at that time had no intention of
having a store on the property. In the intervening time since the property was built and
subsequently sold, the new owner would like to have a store on the property. And so
that's why we are here tonight. I just want to point out a couple things. For instance,
this is really a pretty minor change to the application. The architect's done a fantastic
job of incorporating the store into the original design. This is a really nicely designed
car wash, I think you'd all agree, and the only change that you will really see is on the
south elevation here, it just popped out from what was originally there and, then, we
eliminated the coffee stand off of the site to make room for that. The square footage on
the convenience store is 2,200 square feet, which is fairly small for this type of use. I
would point out that we do lie within an area that is designated as mixed-use community
on the Comprehensive Plan and that is the medium intensity designation of your three
mixed-use zones. That designation does allow up to 25 acres of non-residential uses
and up to 200,000 square feet of non-residential building area. This project in total has
about four and a half acres, but just a bit more than that, with about 24,000 square feet
of office. And, then, about 4,400 square feet for the car wash and, then, 2,200 square
feet for the convenience store. So, your total square footage of non-residential uses is
less than 30,000 square feet in this case. Well below that 200,000 square feet
envisioned by the Comprehensive Plan for these neighborhood commercial areas. We
think this is a use that fits well the car wash. It's really a convenience use for the
neighborhood. We don't anticipate this generating a lot of additional vehicle trips and
that is borne out by the Ada County Highway District transmittal, which we just received.
It's dated August 16th, it's to Lynn Brown, the architect, and it's from AcHD and they
have taken a pass on commenting on the application, because they anticipate it
generating less than ten trips a day additional to what -- and I assume that that's
because the uses are combined and incorporated come together. So, they really see
this as one and the same use and not an additional traffic generator or a trip attractor, I
guess you would say. So, I think they have done a really nice job designing this. I think
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 46 of 62
this will be a nice amenity for the neighborhood and provide some commercial out there
where the people who live in this area necessarily have to get in their car when they
need a can of soup or a gallon or milk and it will fit real well with the neighborhood, as
well as the Comprehensive Plan.
De Weerd: What are the -- you know, everything looks good in black and white, but
what are the colors on this?
Fluke: I believe we are in browns. Is that right; Lynn? Yeah.
De Weerd: And how about signage?
Fluke: Brad, do you remember what we were -- I think a single monument sign is what
we were approved for originally. I'm trying to remember. 1--
Hawkins-Clark: I don't recall you actually submitting for signs, you know, since we allow
-- I mean the sign permitting process is separate from the conditional use.
Fluke: So, I guess we will be submitting an application for our signage at a later date.
De Weerd: Okay. I guess, Brad, what is allowed in this kind of zone as far as signage
goes? Only monument?
Hawkins-Clark: No. No. The C-N district, I believe, allows up to -- it's either 12 or 15
feet is the maximum sign height and I believe approximately 60 square feet. So, they
could have a free-standing sign, you know, on Ustick Road. The master plan sign
program's intent would be to have only one sign for the complex. So, it's not that you
would see multiple signs along Ustick Road, but that one sign would potentially, you
know, provide some kind of signage for both the offices and car wash, but, then, within
the project each lot is permitted their own free-standing sign as well. And, of course,
wall signs are in addition, but wall signs are nine percent of that area -- of the wall area
that faces Ustick.
De Weerd: Now, would that be for public comment? I guess the concern of having an
application separate is exactly the pole signs, the lighted wall signs, those kind of things
that are in a neighborhood area, one that will build out residentially. So, I guess that
was my curiosity.
Hawkins-Clark: Yeah. I mean I would point out this is right at the center of what is
shown on the Comprehensive Plan to be a neighborhood center. So, we would
anticipate if the general concept comes through, commercial on both the north and
south side of Ustick here and, then, even on the other side of Venable Lane. So, the
residence in the county immediately to the east of this today, they would have the
potential to go non-residential in the future, so just to clarify.
De Weerd: And is this a future location for a traffic light?
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 47 of 62
Hawkins-Clark: In my conversations with Ada County Highway District, it is a possibility.
They do not meet the warrants today, of course, but the half-mile is an area that they
have typically -- you know, as you start to see these traffic counts build up -- I mean a
lot of people -- at the p.m. peak hour would say they need a traffic light today as back
out the --
De Weerd: Well, I would agree.
Hawkins-Clark: But, as you know, they have other factors than just the p.m. peak that
they look at before they put a signal up. But with the school there and a crosswalk
across Ustick and across Venable Lane -- maybe Mr. Mills could address that better
than anybody. I think it is a very real possibility.
De Weerd: Well, with that four way stop sign on Meridian and Ustick, I mean it is nasty.
Ifs nasty.
Fluke: Madam Mayor, if I might. If I recall correctly, we did place money in the road
trust fund for a signal -- a future signal at that intersection of Meridian and Ustick at the
time the original Cedar Springs application went through. That was not true of Venable
Lane, but I do concur with Brad that is on the half mile and that is typically allowed and
by -- by the highway district and when they reach the warrant, then, typically they would
install one with impact fees that have been generated in the area.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, do you have any questions?
Bird: I have none.
Rountree: None.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you.
Fluke: Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. I have a couple of people that have signed up. Phillip Pickett has
signed up against. If you can, please, state your name and address.
Pickett: I'm Phillip Pickett. I'm at 36 -- 3787 North Rhodes Avenue in Cedar Springs.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Pickett: We saw this sign up yesterday and thought we would come to the meeting.
We talked to several of our neighbors and they were all very upset about the idea of
having a convenience store there, especially the 24-7. Very upset. But because of late
notice, because we just saw it last night, I don't think people saw that sign or they see
the sign and don't stop to look at it. If you look at where the -- Venable is right there and
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 48 of 62
you come up to the end, I think it originally -- Venable was supposed to go all the way
through to Baldwin Park or something, but they put a stop sign there and put some
fences up there and so right there at the end of that -- where the school is going to be
and those homes, it takes a right and, then, a quick left on North Rhodes. So, we are
the direct road that comes from Baldwin Park and, eventually, Cedar Springs north and
those new developments right there. And our feeling is that as we develop that corner,
one, we were probably okay with the car wash, because we didn't feel that in the middle
of the night necessarily people are going to be driving down our road to get to the car
wash, but we are concerned with the additional traffic with a convenience store and he
was saying that maybe ten cars more may show up there a day or something like that.
Just look at the traffic that's generated from the Maverick, the one on Linder and Cherry,
and try to go in there sometime to get a can of beans or peas or some milk or whatever.
It's very heavily used. A convenience store would be. It would be tremendous amount
of traffic onto Ustick and Venable and North Rhodes and that's my concern today. The
other thing is is you have got Settler's Park sitting right there that is developed for the
children. I'm a soccer coach there and the kids are playing soccer until 10:00 o'clock at
night. They are over there right now practicing and, of course, it's dark now, but they
were practicing in the day. You're going to have a convenience store there, you're
going to have additional traffic, and you're going to have a school there in a few years.
My concern is -- and I know that everybody here has stopped in and bought a pop or
got gas or something at night. My concern is that at 4:00 o'clock, 5:00 o'clock, there are
men in there and people stop in there and they buy the big cans of beer and they go out
in their car and they could pop it and they start drinking it as they are driving home,
because it's been a hard day, they have been doing construction or whatever, and that
school is going to be right there, it's going to be at the time when those kids are going
home and I was actually shocked to hear that the people at the school weren't that
concerned with the fact that a convenience store with alcohol and pornography is going
to be right on the doorstep of the school. I'm concerned. I believe it's going to be
bringing undesirable people into that area and you say, well, not everybody is
undesirable, right, but some are, because if you look at the crime rates, probably the
most high risk job that you could have is to be a convenience store clerk and usually
that's in the evening from 10:00 to 11 :00 to 12:00 o'clock at night, that's when they get
held up, killed, and the problems arise. And just a couple weeks ago over on
Pattingham and Goldenrod, there was a 25 year old woman who was walking and it was
about 10:30, 11 :00 o'clock at night and she was accosted by two men in an SUV, those
things are all concerns to me, because of that area right in there where we were --
where we live and where this store is going to be built.
De Weerd: Mr. Pickett, could you, please, summarize?
Pickett: We didn't know that we could be against the convenience store part of it
tonight, we felt it was a done deal, and maybe it is a done deal, but we are absolutely
against having a convenience store there with the reasons that he mentioned when he
went through those three concerns and the school and the park and we are concerned -
- heavily concerned and totally opposed to the 24-7.

De Weerd: Thank you.
Pickett: Thank you.
De Weerd: Any questions for Mr. Pickett? Okay. Thank you so much. Jenny Pond
signed up against. If you will, please, state your name and address for the record.
Pond: I'm Jenny Pond on 751 West Ashton Road and I'm on the corner of Venable and
Ashton Road right there where it says T and continues on through our neighborhood
that way. But I'm opposed, as well as they are, for the same reasons. I just wanted to
go on record.
De Weerd: Thank you very much. And, Brent, I'm sorry, I can't read your last name. Is
sign up for. Brad Bellville is signed up for. And David Williams also for. Okay. Is there
any questions that Council needs. Would the applicant like to, please, respond?
Fluke: Madam Mayor, thank you. Daren Fluke, again, with JUB. I will be brief and just
respond to the concerns of the gentleman. With regard to the comparison to the
Maverick at Cherry Lane, I'd just point out that's a much larger store. It is also located
at the intersection of two arterials that carry many many times more trips than this mid
section facility here. So, I don't think it's a fair comparison as far as traffic generation
goes. As far as generating trips from the park and people coming over, you will recall
that we do have a pathway that was installed and the northeast corner of the property, it
sort of coincides with where the park comes together with the school property as well
and so there is pedestrian access between the park and the facility. People shouldn't
have to get in their car to come over here and get a pop if they want to. If park users
want to buy from the store, so much the better, and I don't see a problem with that.
With regard to the hours of operation, it is their preference to have a 24 hour operation,
although it's not a deal killer if the Council felt more comfortable approving this with
some restriction on the hours of operation. The applicant would be amenable to that.
So, really, I just don't -- convenience stores like this operate allover the city and with
very little trouble and this is an exceptionally small convenience store on the middle of
the mile, not at a permanent intersection. We think it will work real well for this location.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Any questions for the applicant?
Hawkins-Clark: Just to clarify, Madam Mayor, one thing.
De Weerd: Yes.
Hawkins-Clark: In terms of the state code on the sexually explicit and obscene material,
it is 2,500 feet from the schools is what the state code is, so -- which is a half-mile. So,
that would certainly encapsulate this site.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. And is there any further testimony -- I'm sorry. When I
asked the person on the wrong sheet, I didn't ask if there was any further testimony.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 50 of 62
Okay. Go ahead, ma'am. J'm sorry, Daren. I asked you to wrap up before I asked.
Please come forward. If you will, please --
K.Pickett: Kathy Pickett. I live at 3786 North Rhodes.
De Weerd: Thank you.
K.Pickett: In Cedar Springs. And I really feel like a convenience store is just going to
tear down the value of our homes. I don't think it's necessary. I guess if a coffee kiosk
went there I wouldn't mind that, but I'm dead set against having a convenience store. I
don't think it's necessary. There is going to be a Fred Meyers store, why do we need to
have a convenience store right outside our door? I just think it's going to add additional
traffic. We already are flooded with traffic. You, yourself, said how congested that
corner was at Ustick and Meridian Road. You're going to increase that with a school
and that park isn't even finished yet and it's already over-traveled. And I just feel like
this is totally unnecessary. Venable Road is nothing but a speedway already and you're
just going to have people going there all day and all night just getting their drinks and
their pops and their beers and everything else. I happen to live in that neighborhood
and I don't want it.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mrs. Pickett. Does the applicant have any final remarks? And I
apologize, I got us a little bit out of order.
Fluke: Madam Mayor, Daren Fluke, again, with JUB. I don't want to belabor this point,
but with regard to trip generation, this is -- this type of use really feeds off traffic that's
already on the road. It doesn't generate trips that are coming solely to come to this
facility. And so they are people that are in cars traveling on Ustick Road, they stop to
wash their cars or to get a pop or whatever at the facility, but people don't come out of
their way to come to a store like this. A larger store, like an Albertson's or a Fred
Meyer, is a trip generator, because people go there specifically. They leave their house
to go there. This, basically, just captures trips that are already on the roadway, so that's
all I have to add.
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Council?
Rountree: I have no questions.
De Weerd: If there is no further questions, I would entertain a motion.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I move to close the Public Hearing on Item 17.
Bird: Second.
Meridian City Council
August 23,2005
Page 51 of 62
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to close Item 17. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion
carries.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
De Weerd: Is there discussion?
Rountree: Madam Mayor, just a point of discussion.
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: There was an indication that the applicant was not opposed to conditions on
on timing on the open -- I don't know where we are going to go with approval or not with
this, but it seems to me that that's something that we need to discuss in any form,
whether we take action on this. I would not be opposed to setting a limit to minimize the
24-hour aspect of the particular facility. I think we have imposed time restrictions in the
past on these kinds of operations to 10:00 or 11 :00 o'clock in evening and I just throw
that out for comment and/or consideration.
De Weerd: Any discussion on that item or any further comments? Okay. If there is no
further discussion, do I have a motion?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I move that we approve Item No. 17, subject to staff comments and
restrictions of operating hours of the C store to not be open past 11 :00 p.m. in the
evening and not to be open prior to 6:00 a.m. in the morning. And Findings that would
reflect the motion.
De Weerd: We have a motion to approve with the additional conditions. Do I have a
second?
Bird: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. I have a motion and a second. Discussion? Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, for discussion purposes, one of the things that I -- and certainly
I have been quoted in the application and have been considering this application. The
one statement I made is that we were not looking at a convenience store and that's
because the original applicant didn't bring a convenience store in. In our zoning, in the
C-N zone, we do allow them as permitted uses and it was something that was excluded
during that particular application and it wasn't discussed in general. The one thing that
we have been struggling with as a city is what makes a good neighborhood center and
Meridian City Council
August 23. 2005
Page 52 of 62
it's a concept that hasn't been fully flushed out We have some people that are willing to
try the neighbor center concept and to comply with our zones and we don't really have a
clear picture of what those look like, because they are market driven. And this is an
area that's market driven and, apparently, it's been sold, I would assume for a greater
value than it was purchased for, which would lead me to believe that those market
conditions are changing and I just take that into consideration, for not only this
neighborhood center, but for the rest of the neighborhood centers within the city, that we
have located and the development community is really asking us what do we want to
see.
De Weerd: Well, I guess I would make a comment and this is unique and many of the
situations where we have identified neighborhood centers -- neighborhood centers are
not typically located by a school or a park and I guess my concern is the alcohol factor.
My kids play in that park. They play soccer. We have a baseball complex that will be
going in. That's my only concern about this. And I know restricting it with the hours of
operation is a great step, but it's just -- a convenience store, it concerns me about the
convenience to the alcohol and that's my only comment.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: May I ask the chief, do we restrict alcohol in our city parks? I should know that
answer, probably, but I'm going to ask it.
Overton: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we do have a process where there is
a permit that's required for alcohol in the city parks and we have to --
Donnell: So only for special uses, then?
Overton: That's correct. And they have to be approved and signed off by myself and
the city.
Donnell: Madam Mayor, follow up?
De Weerd: Uh-huh.
Donnell: Then would this require additional monitoring by the police department, having
a convenience store this close to a city park, particularly, since there is a walkway?
Overton: I don't think it would require any additional enforcement by us, just like a
supermarket that sells alcohol wouldn't require any more additional enforcement by us if
it was close to a park.
Donnell: Okay. Because just as an aside, I think of Lowell Scott Middle School, which
was built 25, 30 years ago, and it sits on the corner across from a park and across from
Meridian City Council
August 23,2005
Page 53 of 62
a convenience store and a grocery store and many other stores. So, I just wanted to
clarify that.
De Weerd: Okay. We do have a motion to approve. Is there any further discussion?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Nary.
Nary: The other issue in the conditional use, you -- the Council hasn't addressed, if you
want to take the action with the development agreement, you're going to also need to
take the action with the conditional use and continue this matter for a couple of weeks,
so you can bring back the amendments to the development agreement in a couple of
weeks, but you also want to discuss the conditional use in directing staff to bring
different conditions back for amendments to that as well if you want to do that.
De Weerd: Okay. So, Mr. Nary, I guess with that said, is the motion to approve
appropriate at this point or would it be that the Council would instruct the city to move
forward with the CUP, so they could be considered at the same time?
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, you know, if -- it would probably be
cleaner if the Council's direction is to consider an amendment to the development
agreement and you'd like staff to come up with some changes to the condition and we
bring all of that back to you in two weeks and, then, we could put that on your agenda,
so that there is opportunity for public comment. One of the comments made tonight
was there was some neighbor that didn't see the sign early enough to maybe have other
people, there may be other comment that may be appropriate that you may want to
hear. So, rather than directing that now, you can certainly direct us simply to bring back
that proposal in a couple of weeks and based on your direction you're still free to do
whatever you wish to do at that juncture, so --
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Well, as I understand listening to Mr. Nary, that we need to reopen the Public
Hearing and, then, continue that, because he's expressing neighbors not -- I'm sure the
property was posted right and we got those big signs. As blind as I am, I can see them
driving by. I don't know. Why wasn't this brought in with the application if we was going
to have to change the -- we are asking for a change in the development agreement, why
wasn't the CUP brought in at the same time? Now we got to put this off for two more
weeks.
Rountree: Only if we approve the --
Bird: Right. If we approve it. Well, yeah.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 54 of 62
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Nary: I certainly wasn't -- and I didn't mean to make it appear that you have to continue
the Public Hearing. You can continue this matter on your agenda. You still have to take
action on the conditional use at some point, because that's already -- that's already in
the record, there are already conditions on the property. You can move to amend the
development agreement and go forward and you can move to direct the staff to take
care of the conditional use and you're still going to have to provide notice and all of that.
You're just going to do it separately. So, if you want to combine it and do that together,
you can direct staff to amend this application, we will notice it on this agenda in two
weeks, we will bring back the amendment to the development application before you in
a couple of weeks, so we can do all that. You don't have to have another hearing,
you've had a hearing tonight. All you're doing is directing staff to bring back the
changes to the conditional use, along with -- if that's your desires to change the
development agreement. So, you don't have to have another Public Hearing. You've
had the Public Hearing tonight, you did notice up this. There is no notice that's
necessary for that.. Now, maybe Mr. Hawkins-Clark has a different perspective on the
changes to the condition, but it's the same issue that were before us, before you tonight.
Bird: Excuse me. Madam Mayor? Okay. I got a question, then. If we are changing
the CUP, then, we should have a Public Hearing; is that not right? If we are changing --
and, evidently, we are changing it quite a bit, I believe, because we are changing the
development agreement.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, what you have here is a -- is an odd
circumstance that prior Council preferred to put conditional use conditions in the
development agreement, along with the conditions that were imposed. What they have
asked is to amend the development agreement to amend those conditions, which you're
also having to, then, amend a separate document that contains those conditions. You
can consider them heard before you tonight, based on the information that you have
provided to you. It is, in my opinion, a cleanup to simply direct the staff to also bring
those conditions back to you with the development agreement change. You are
directing us to bring you back a document in the couple of weeks with those changes in
the development agreement. That ultimately still has to be approved by you. In my
opinion, you don't have to re-notice a conditional use change at the same time, since
that was already in the notice that was provided as to what you're changing. You're not
m-- you're changing the same items in both documents. So, to me, there is no
necessity to have another Public Hearing. You have had that opportunity today. I don't
anticipate you're going to get different information, you just may get more of it, but
you're not going to get something different but you would have had the opportunity to
have heard tonight. Now, again, Mr. Hawkins-Clark may have a different perspective
from planning on the conditional use changes, but to me we are still -- we are still
noticed up that we are changing something with this property, we have provided notice
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 55 of 62
to the neighbors as required by statute, they have posted the property properly and all
you're doing is directing staff to bring the other conditions that need to be changed at
the same time before you in two weeks.
Donnell: Got it.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. --
Hawkins-Clark: Madam Mayor, I -- that would certainly be a change from practice. You
know, I mean we have -- whenever an applicant wants to change a conditional permit,
we have treated it as though they were applying for new. So, the biggest change is that
the Planning and Zoning Commission normally would hold a hearing to give their
comments to you. And in this case that was not done. So, yeah, I guess one change is
that, you know, the Planning and Zoning Commission on a modification to a Conditional
Use Permit would make their recommendation to you. So, I -- you know, I mean
process-wise it is new, but I mean I understand what Mr. Nary is saying, I mean I think
that the -- the same issues are going to be addressed, but I mean, you know, from a
planning standpoint the main thing is that we need to make sure that this conditional
use that is running with the title on this property is correct and any change that you
make tonight has a direct impact on that Conditional Use Permit. So, we need to
definitely clean that up. I guess it's really a process issue.
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Here is another alternative that you could consider. What is being asked -- and
part of the problem is -- as Mr. Hawkins-Clark stated in his staff report, is that it simply
wasn't caught at the time to notify the applicants that they need to, basically, apply to
modify both the agreement and the conditional use. What you have before you -- and,
again, I don't know what any of your preference is, but what you have before you is an
application to amend your development agreement to allow a convenience store in this
location where it's not currently allowed, based on that development agreement, and to
amend those hours of operation. The applicant has indicated in their testimony that
they would be willing to live with some amendments to those, but they didn't state what
those were. You certainly have the ability to direct us to provide you an amendment to
the development agreement to allow the convenience store and they can still come with
a conditional use, so that you have better information in front of you, but from the
applicant as to what's viable and practical for their uses, as well as whatever the
neighbors think. Obviously, you have heard both testimony that they don't want the
convenience store at all versus whether or not some usage of some conditions on those
uses might be more appropriate. And, then, you could hear the conditional use change
and all we have to do is change the development agreement currently and, then, you'd
still be able to make a decision on what is appropriate and certainly is this allowed and
to apply for it.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 56 of 62
De Weerd: Okay. Are you all clear on that?
Donnell: Yeah. Right.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: My personal preference would be -- since we have heard staff say that the
applicant came in, our staff directed them to this route to amend the development
agreement, didn't talk about the conditional use that came up after the fact, certainly we
have notification as legal counsel has given us, whatever decision we make this
evening, if we vote in the affirmative, my preference would be to bring, as stated by
Council's motion this evening, if vote in the positive, to bring that back in Finding form,
allow the applicant the opportunity to comment at that point before we approve the
Findings on the CUP. Can we do that, Mr. Nary?
De Weerd: Is that something you said?
Bird: That's a new wrinkle.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, if you want to direct us to bring back an
amendment to your development agreement to allow for a convenience store with some
changes in hours of operation as proposed in the development agreement, we can do
that. You still will have a conditional use hanging out there in some fashion. My only
suggestion was if you want to consider the conditional use, you have, in my opinion,
satisfied the notice requirements to do that. I agree with Hawkins-Clark, we haven't
traditionally done that. Some of the things we -- the way we are doing this now isn't the
way we traditionally did them either. But you have satisfied the notice requirements to
the neighbors that a change is happening on this property, but I understand there is
some significant concern that you have all expressed about the use here and how that
would fit and blend into the neighborhood. So, you certainly can direct us to bring back
the change to the development agreement. You can still hear the conditional use as we
have in the past, you can certainly have that discussion, because at some point you're
going to have to either make a decision to amend the conditional use or not.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Maybe I can muddy this up a little more. Common horse sense tells me that what
we are voting today is just changing the development agreement and, then, I'm like Mr.
Nary stated, I'm not comfortable with doing anything with the CUP until that's brought
back to us. You got your finding on your development agreement, but, then, you have
got to have changes on the CUP, too, that goes along with this property. So, somehow
or other we have got to get a variance on the CUP back before us, because we can't act
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 57 of 62
on something that isn't publicized and there was nothing publicized about the CUP. It's
strictly on the development agreement. And I'm like Mr. Nary just said, let's vote on this,
if it passes, then, we -- then, the staff and the applicant deals with the CUP and it comes
back before us, because there is major changes to the CUP that goes with this property.
And that at that point, then, all the neighbors and stuff can get out and testify one way or
the other. And that's the way I see it, because there is nothing in the notification about a
CUP, it's on the development agreement. So, we can't change -- I don't believe we can
change the CUP at this point right now. That's my opinion. And call the question if
there is no more discussion.
De Weerd: If there is no further discussion, the question has been called for and I will
ask Mr. Berg to, please, call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
De Weerd: Okay. And so staff would be -- the applicant and staff would need to come
back with a Conditional Use Permit modification. And that, too, would be open for
public comment, as I understand it. Mr. Nary.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, what Council's action is that what you
will get back in front of you in two weeks is an amended development agreement -- well,
we will prepare an amended development agreement, you will get it back whenever
they sign it. The amended development agreement will reflect the two things in the
motion that I wrote down was that it would allow a convenience store, with the hours of
operation limited from 6:00 a.m. to 11 :00 p.m. That's the only change. It simply allows
them to ask for that use. If they choose not to, they don't have to. If they want to ask
for something else, they can. The conditional use that is currently on that property limit
those hours more -- differently, because it talks about a coffee shop and some other
things. They need to make those amendments. They can do that, provide notice to the
public, provide notice to the neighbors and, then, you will hear that before you for those
changes. All you have done is allow them to ask for a different use than what was
previously allowed. If that was your intent, that was what you did.
De Weerd: Okay.
Bird: Thank you, Bill.
De Weerd: Okay_ Okay. And, now, Mr. Nary, just one final clarification. The property,
then, would be reposted with the new hearing date?
Nary: When they apply for the change to the conditional use -- and Mr. Hawkins-Clark
will have to remind me -- would that have to go back to the Planning and Zoning
Commission first or not? I don't recall.
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 58 of 62
Hawkins-Clark: I'm sorry, I -- I didn't check the ordinance. I don't remember off the top
of my head.
Nary: I don't recall. So, they will have to go through the process, apply for that change,
and it will either go to the Planning and Zoning first with recommendations to you or it
will come here, but, yeah, the neighbors will be notified within 300 feet. The property
will be posted.
Item 18:
Public Hearing: VAR 05-015 Request for a Variance for the reduction of
parking spaces required and modification of parking lot landscaping
requirements for Mike Palmer by Mike Palmer - 1524, 1608 and 1616
North Meridian Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Okay. Item 18 is VAR 05-015. I will open this Public Hearing with
staff comments.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Madam Mayor and Members of the Council. This
application variance actually has two different components to it. One is to request a
change to parking. They are requesting reduced parking of seven spaces. The other
component is requesting a reduction in the landscape buffer width along Meridian Road.
This is three parcels south of Fairview Avenue on the east side of Meridian Road.
Consigned -- Sherry's Consigned Furniture is adjacent to this. It's -- they are proposing
-- actually, today, if you can see this dashed line here, there is a structure on the site.
They have applied to demolish that and they actually have received a certificate of
zoning compliance through our office for this corner piece here. There is, actually, I
believe, two buildings and what they are proposing to do is connect them. So, they
have received that today, because that square footage would require the parking which
they can provide. But they are also wanting to add this area here, this L-shaped portion
to the building and that would put the whole square footage of this site to a little over
10,000 square foot building. That would require 52 parking spaces and what they are
showing here is 45. So, in order for them to construct this size of building that they
want, they need this variance. So, that's what they have applied for in terms of the
parking. The other component of this variance, the landscaping adjacent to Meridian
Road, there are a couple of very mature good size caliper inch trees in this area and as
our landscape ordinance encourages, they are trying to protect those and in order to do
that, they have to make some sort of modifications and tweaks to their landscaped area
and this area right here on the northern end of their site, as you can see, is pretty
narrow. Normally, we actually require 25 feet of landscaping. We -- as you know in the
Old Town area we are changing that under some new design guidelines to -- it just
really doesn't make sense in the Old Town to have that large of a buffer. So, frankly,
you know, a little narrower buffer in the Old Town area with more pedestrians probably
works. Now, bear in mind any future changes to Meridian Road, this may be a moot
point, but for the time being that's what they are proposing to do. So, staff -- staff thinks
that these are -- these are site -- this is all the site that they have to work with. We think
that the benefit to the city works in favor that seven parking spaces is not going to
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 59 of 62
create any kind of public injury or hardship and so we are recommending approval of
this.
De Weerd: Thank you, Brad. Is there any questions from Council?
Bird: I have none, Mayor.
De Weerd: Okay. Would the applicant like to come forward? If you will, please, state
your name and address.
Palmer: Mike Palmer. 264 East Knoll Court, Eagle, Idaho. I agree with those guys.
De Weerd: Well, thank you.
Palmer: What we are doing is we are saving some trees -- some bigger trees back in --
instead of making parking lot -- I'll show you.
De Weerd: Sir, you have the microphone right there if you would like to --
Palmer: This area here, instead of making this parking spots, we are going to keep it
and add -- there is two really large trees in there right now and that's what -- we are kind
of swapping this area for that area there.
De, Weerd: Do you have any questions, Council, for the applicant?
Bird: I have none.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: Are you taking my nail place?
Palmer: We are going to move it to a nicer place.
Donnell: Oh.
Palmer: It's going to move into that other spot. We have already talked to her.
Donnell: Okay. But that building's coming down?
Palmer: Correct.
Donnell: Okay.
De Weerd: Is that acceptable?
Meridian City Council
August 23, 2005
Page 60 of 62
Donnell: As long as they keep it right there.
Palmer; She's going to move about 30 yards.
Donnell: Good.
De Weerd: Thank you. Is there any further testimony on this application? Okay.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: Hearing no more, I move that we close the Public Hearing for VAR 05-015.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. I have a motion and a second on Item 18 to close the Public
Hearing. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
De Weerd: Okay. Any discussion? Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, just for discussion purposes, certainly agree with that staff's
comments about the Old Town area. The one thing that I'd like to point out, especially
with our decision and resolution this evening, that this is going to definitely become the
very very edge of Old Town pedestrian oriented Meridian as we move traffic through it.
And so traffic variations in areas in the outskirts of this certainly wouldn't qualify for the
same considerations in the future.
De Weerd: Thank you. Any further comments? Okay. Do I have a motion?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I'd like to move that we approve -- I'm going to go back. Item No. 18, request
for a variance 05-015, for the reduction of parking spaces and modification of the
parking lot landscaping requirement.
Rountree: Second.
Donnell: And approve the Findings.
Rountree: Second agrees.

De Weerd: Okay. Motion to approve Item 18. Is there any discussion? Mr. Berg.

De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Item 19 is Ordinance No. 05-1173. Mr. Berg, will you,
please, read this by title only.
Berg: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. Ordinance No. 05-1173, an

reading of the rules and providing an effective date.
De Weerd: You have heard this ordinance read by title only. Is there anyone who
would like to hear it read in its entirety? Hearing nothing, Council?
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I move that we approve Ordinance 05-1173 with suspension of rules.

According to Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to
Zoning Amendments, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and Council are required
"to review the pmiicular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in
terms of the following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the
following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
Thefollowing is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff:
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
Staff finds that the requested General Commercial (C-G) zoning designation is in
accord with the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map, which delineates
the subject property as "Mixed Use-Regional". Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-7-
2.1. states the purpose of the C-G district is "to provide for a review of the impact
of proposed commercial uses which are auto and service oriented and are located
in close proximity to major highway or arterial streets; to fulfill the need of travel-
related services as well as retail sales for the transient and permanent motoring
public." The following Comprehensive Plan policies also support the annexation
and proposed retail/fuel service use (staff analysis is in italics below policy):
· "Permit new. . . commercial developments only where urban
services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval
and development is contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, pg. 26,
Goal I, Obj. A, #6)
Sanitary sewer, municipal water, solid waste and other services
exist to this area of Meridian. The subject site is readily
serviceable by City of Meridian's sanitary sewer and water
systems. These connections have not been defined and required
detailed approval from Public Works prior to final approval. One
of the comments received from the Fire Department states that the
location has several items of concern that would require
compliance upon approval of a detailed site plan and/or
subdivision and/or conditional use permit issuance.
· "Require all new parking lots to provide landscaping in internal
islands." (Chapter V, pg. 43, Goal III, Obj. D, #3)
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit G
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit G
The Site Plan submitted with the future detailed CUP applications
for this property shall show internal planters, as required.
G "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within
the Impact Area." (Chapter VII, Goal 1, Objective B)
The proposed and existing uses do provide a variety of commercial
uses in this area, as envisioned with the Comprehensive Plan.
e "Locate new community commercial areas on mterials. . .near
residential areas in such a way as to complement with adjoining
residential areas." (Chapter VII, pg. 43, Goal III, Obj. D, #3)
The subject property has frontage on two arterial roadways. The
existing uses adjacent to this site are existing residential uses but
are anticipated to develop as commercial uses in the
Comprehensive Plan. Because the adjoining properties are still
somewhat rural in nature (not annexed), the development of retail
uses as described in the Conceptual plan may complement the
existing uses for several years. Depending on how the rest of the
site builds-out, this development mayor may not compliment
adjoining residential developments to the west of the site.
The proposed commercial uses are located closest to the
intersection of the interstate and two principle arterial roadways.
A 35-foot wide street buffer is shown along Eagle Road and a 35-
foot wide street buffer is shown along Overland Road, designed in
part to mitigate potential negative impacts upon the vehicular
traffic from 1-84 on Eagle Road.
· "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial
streets." (Chapter VII, pg. 107, Goal IV, Obj. D, #2)
Access to Eagle Road and Overland Road including right-in/right-
out and shared accesses allowing travel towards the east/Eagle
Road are subject to the conditions of ACHD. No north bound
turning shall be allowed on Eagle Road. A cross access agreement
within the properties at the future property boundaries will be
required so the cuts can be shared with adjacent development. /n
addition, access to the /-84 off ramp is prohibited in compliance
with lTD.
· "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation
corridors (setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.)." (Chapter
VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action item 4)
Staff finds that the existing building setbacks, landscape
inadequacies, and the potential for redevelopment create a unique
situationfor the site. /n order to mitigate anticipated problems a
development agreement will be required and detailed Conditional
Use Permits should be considered.
"Require all commercial businesses to install and maintain
landscaping." (Chapter V, Goal III, Objective D, Action item 5)
The Applicant has addressed the requirement to install
landscaping adjacent to the existing off-site residential uses. The
Applicant has requested approval to reduce the standard
landscape buffer width from 25' to 5 '. Staff has included
conditions that require standard setbacks for landscaping and
buildings to be installed upon receipt of a detailed development
proposal and prior to issuance of any building permits.
· "Consider "Accommodating Bicycle and Pedestrian Travel; A
Recommended Approach" from the National Center for Bicycling
and Walking in all land use decisions." (Chapter VI, Goal II,
Objective A, Action item 3)
This publication encourages jurisdictions to establish bikeway and
walkway facilities in new construction and reconstruction projects,
in a manner that is safe, accessible and convenient. The regional
Multi-Use pathway is shown on the Future Land Use Map for this
site. Properties in the near vicinity have oriented this pathway
system closer to Locust Grove Road. Given the future Locust
Grove Road overpass being constructed, the existing pathway
locations, on-street bike paths on Overland Road, and the
dangerous nature of the Eagle Road overpass, staff feels the
requirement for a multiuse pathway on this site should be waived
in favor of a location to cross /-84 being located at Locust Grove
Road.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Staff does not anticipate that the Applicant intends to rezone the subject property
in the future.
c. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning - for example, a
residential area turning into commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit G
Staff finds that the Applicant has not submitted a detailed development plan for
the mixed uses on the property. Staff further finds that the proposed restaurants,
proposed hotel, and proposed bank businesses are allowed within the appropriate
zoning designations in this mixed use area, however since the projects are
conceptual in nature and require detailed public works approval, all uses on this
site shall obtain a conditional use permit, or the Applicant must submit a detailed
development plan of such quality that Public Works and the Meridian Fire
Department are able to make appropriate comments. See Conditional Use/PD Site
Specific Approval #2. The purpose of the C-G District is to provide for
commercial uses, which are customarily operated entirely or almost entirely
within a building (MCC 11-7-2.K). Staff finds that the proposed uses principally
permitted uses in the C-G zone and consistent with the C-G purpose.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
El Dorado and Silverstone Business developments have recently been annexed
and developed with commercial land uses in this area. There are several
developments in the area that have developed in a fashion similar to the proposed
rezone area.
Overland Road has recently been widened and improved. Eagle Road south of
the interstate has recently been widened and improved at the Eagle/Overland
Intersection. . The intersection of Overland RoadlEagle Road is a signalized,
controlled intersection. The Commission and Council should rely on the
preceding facts and any public testimony to determine whether the changes in the
area dictate that this area should be annexed into the City and zoned C-G at this
time.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and tliat such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
Staff finds that the proposed C-G zone with the proposed retail, office and hotel
uses, if designed, constructed and operated in accordance with adopted city
ordinances, should be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the
intended character of the vicinity. The site is intended for commercial uses which,
based on the Comprehensive Plan description, will have such uses as retail,
wholesale, service and office uses, as well as appropriate public uses such as
government offices.
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit G
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
There are no existing uses on this site. The site does have a floodplain which will
require engineering and mitigation prior to building(s) closest to the Five Mile
Creek. Staff feels this section of floodplain can be addressed by the Applicant to
mitigate any future impacts to proposed tenants. Appropriate buffers should be
required on the north and west boundaries of this development, as the abutting
uses are less-intense than the proposed uses (see MCC 12-13-12-4). The
Commission and Council should rely on public testimony to determine whether
the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazardous to the 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
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Staff finds that the recent roadway improvements to Overland Road should be
adequate to serve this project if the majority of traffic is directed to Eagle Road
from Overland Road. Based on recent correspondences, ACHD does not
anticipate additional right-of-way and/or a frontage road adjacent to/through this
property. Improvements to Overland Road in this area have taken place in the
recent past including the signalization at Eagle Road, improvements are not
anticipated within the next 20 years. Based on past correspondence with ACHD,
Planning staff believes that this site will add a significant amount of traffic to the
roadway system upon build out. This site has over 880 feet of frontage on
Overland Road and approaches an intersection with Loder Place. Based on future
commercial development applications staff is conditioning that the Applicant
enter into a development agreement with the City to ensure improvements
(landscaping, future road intersections.) to the west property boundary, be subject
to ACHD requirements with no offsite access to the west during construction,
with site-specific standards conditions to be met in accordance with approval of
the subject development.
On May 13, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. The Meridian Fire
Department has concerns with serviceability of this site, as the proposal does not
detail the uses or internal circulation. Because the Applicant has not identified all
future buildings within this development, such buildings will be subject to further
review and comments by Meridian Fire Department.
The Commission and Council should reference any written or verbal testimony
submitted by the Meridian Police Department, and any other agency not listed
above, regarding their ability to adequately service this project.
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit G
Staff finds that the propelty proposed for annexation can be served adequately by
all essential public facilities and services as conditioned.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
If this mmexationldevelopment is approved, the developer will be financing the
extension of sewer, water, local/internal street infrastructure, utilities and
ilTigation services to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the
future site will be fire and police services. Staff finds that this development will
not cause excessive additional requirements at public cost.
I. Will the proposed uses 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;
Staff finds that the proposed uses do not involve activities, processes, materials,
equipment or conditions that could produce excessive traffic, noise, fumes and/or
odors, as well as other negative public impacts. MCC 11-12-2 and 11-12-3 are
intended to mitigate impacts of special uses such as fire hazards, bulk storage,
noises. Conditions associated with a CUP and/or Development Agreement could
establish use parameters that would prevent negative effects. In order to establish
uidelines to miti ate the antici ated im acts of the ro osed uses the A licant
should be reauired to submit a conditional use oermit for each buildineluse on this
site (see conditional use site soecific condition of aooroval #2).
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
Staff finds that any future uses 1lli!Y impact the level and flow of traffic on the
surrounding roadways. Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan states that the City
should "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets."
(Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective D, Action item 2). ACHD has made comment
and has indicated that they will approve the proposed access points, see ACHD
site specific conditions of approval.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
The Five-Mile Creek floodplain is a natural feature that may be lost, damaged or
destroyed by allowing this site to be annexed, zoned and developed with
conunercial uses. Any existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed shall
be mitigated for, per the Landscape Ordinance.
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit G
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)"
Due to the existing residential uses to the west, and the large percentage of the
site that is within the Five Mile Creekfloodplain, development of this site for
commercial purposes is difficult. Although staff anticipates that the properties to
the west will re-develop in the near future with higher and better uses, the City
should protect the existing uses until they do re-develop by requiring appropriate
landscape buffers and other provisions. Staff finds that the annexation and zoning
of this property, as mitigated through a development agreement, may be in the
best interest of the City for the following reasons:
o other developments in the area have developed in a fashion similar to the
proposed rezone area (commercial);
· municipal sanitary sewer and water systems are readily available to provide
service;
· the proposed retail, office and hotel uses involve activities, processes,
materials, equipment and/or conditions that will not produce excessive
additional traffic, noise, fumes and/or odors, as well as other negative public
impacts that can be mitigated through future development of the site; and,
· the other reasons listed in the findings above.
The Planning and Zoning Commission and Cit~ Council should consider whether
they have sufficient information on the Apolicant's orooosal to determine if the
annexation is within the best interest of the Citv at this time.

Preliminary Plat Findings
PRELIMINARY PLAT FINDINGS AND REOUIREMENTS
Sections 12-3-3 J.2 and 12-3-5 D read as follows: "In determining the acceptance of a proposed
subdivision, the Commission/Council shall consider the objectives of this title and at least the
following:
The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development Plan;
Staff finds that the current zoning designation is in general compliance with the effective
Comprehensive Plan ('02) and the Future Land Use Map, which designates the land to be
"Mixed Use Regional." The comprehensive plan also identifies a multi use pathway
connecting the site to adjacent properties within the development. The Applicant has
indicated the pedestrian/multiuse pathway shaH be re-Iocated off site due to safety
concerns. The pathway system should be relocated to the Future Locust Grove Road
Overpass.
Generally, the Mixed Use designation wilJ provide for a combination of compatible land
uses that are typically developed under a master or conceptual plan. Sample Uses are
listed as entertainment, clean industry, and major employers. The office and retail uses
are similar to the sample uses listed on Page 98 Chapter VII of the Meridian City
Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed commercial uses within the subdivision are permissible under the land use
provisions of the MCC (11-8-1.) Therefore, Staff finds that the proposed subdivision is
in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan
b. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed development;
Staff finds that this development will not cause excessive additional requirements at
public cost. The property has existing sewer and water stubs served adequately by all
essential public facilities and services in Overland Road. The Applicant shall be required
to extend water and sanitary sewer mains to and through the proposed development,
thereby making them available to the adjacent properties to the west.
c. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement program;
Staff finds that the subdivision will not conflict with the capital improvement plan.
Because the developer is installing sewer, water, utilities and irrigation, the subdivision
will not require the expenditure of capital improvement funds.
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit H
d. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed development;
Staff finds that the development will not require major expenditures for providing
suppOlting services. See item b.
e. The other health, safety 01' environmental problems that may be brought to the
Commission's attention.
Staff finds that there should not be any other health, safety or environmental problems
associated with this subdivision that should be brought to the Council or Commission's
attention. ACED considers road safety issues in their analysis. No hazardous natural
features have been identified on the site.

CUPIPD Findings
The Commission and Council shall review the particular facts and circumstances of each
proposed conditional use in terms of the following and may approve a conditional use
permit if they shall find evidence presented at the hearing(s) is adequate to establish (11-
17-3):
A. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and all yards,
open spaces, parking, landscaping and other features as may be required by
this ordinance;
Due to the lack of a detailed planned development, staff is unable to fully analyze
the impacts of the proposal. The requirement of individual conditional use
permits should mitigate the need for an overall site plan as the landscaping,
parking and amenities shall be submitted in accordance with future approvals.
No amenities are shown on the conceptual plan. The Applicant shall provide a
minimum of two amenities as required by 12-6-3. The Applicant should specify
these amenities to the Planning and Zoning Commission at the hearing. The DA
should include the specific amenities.
Staff finds that the site should be large enough to accommodate the proposed
setbacks, landscaping, etc if developed under conditional approval for each
use/building.
B. That the proposed use and development plan will be harmonious with the
Meridian Comprehensive Plan and in accordance with the requirements of
this Ordinance;
Please see the findings in the Comprehensive Plan Analysis portion of this report.
C. That the design, construction, operation, and maintenance will be compatible
with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing or
intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not adversely
change the essential character of the same area;
Please see the findings in section "E" and "F" of the Annexation portion of this
report.
D. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval
imposed, will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity;
Dorado Subdivision
Exhibit 1
The Applicant has requested a reduction of the 25' commercial to residential
landscape buffer to 5' of landscaping for the property adjacent to Overland Way
Subdivision. The Applicant has also requested allowance of drive-thrus and an
altemate height standard from the required 40' to the requested 60'. Staff does not
SUPPOlt the waiver of these requirements but feels that the Applicant should be
given the opportunity to address altemative landscape compliance, bulk
requirements, and MCC standards during site specific conditional approvals for
this site. The Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council should consider
whether they have sufficient information on the Applicant's proposal to approve
any reduction in standards at this time.
Also, see the findings in sections "I" and "J" of the Annexation portion of this
report.
E. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities
and services such as highways, street, police, and fire protection, drainage
structures, refuse disposal, water, sewer or that the person responsible for
the establishment of proposed conditional use shall be able to provide
adequately any such services;
Please see the findings in section "0" of the Annexation portion of this report.
F. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional requirements at
public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the
economic welfare of the community;
Please see the findings in sections "0", "R" and "I" of the Annexation portion of
this report.
G. That the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials,
equipment, and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any
persons, property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of
traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors;
Please see the findings in sections "I" and "J" of the Annexation portion of this
report.
H. That the proposed use will have vehicular approaches to the property which
shaH be so designed as not to create an interference with traffic on
surrounding public streets;
Please see the findings in section "J" of the Annexation portion of this report.
I. That the proposed use will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a
natural, scenic or historic feature considered to be of major importance.

ARTICLE 1 GENERAL PROVISIONS
91.1 BASIC DEFINITIONS
91.1.1 THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The Contract Documents consist of the Agreement between Owner and Contractor (hereinafter the Agreement),
Conditions of the Contract (General, Supplementary and other Conditions), Drawings, Specifications, Addenda
issued prior to execution of the Contract, other documents listed in the Agreement and Modifications issued after
execution of the Contract. A Modification is (1) a written amendment to the Contract signed by both parties, (2) a
Change Order, (3) a Construction Change Directive or (4) a written order for a minor change in the Work issued by
the Architect. Unless specifically enumerated in the Agreement, the Contract Documents do not include other
documents such as bidding requirements (advertisement or invitation to bid, Instructions to Bidders, sample forms,
the Contractor's bid or portions of Addenda relating to bidding requirements).
9 1.1.2 THE CONTRACT
The Contract Documents form the Contract for Construction. The Contract represents the entire and integrated
agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes prior negotiations, representations or agreements, either written
or oral. The Contract may be amended or modified only by a Modification. The Contract Documents shall not be
construed to create a contractual relationship of any kind (1) between the Architect and Contractor, (2) between the
Owner and a Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor, (3) between the Owner and Architect or (4) between any persons
or entities other than the Owner and Contractor. The Architect shall, however, be entitled to performance and
enforcement of obligations under the Contract intended to facilitate performance of the Architect's duties.
91.1.3 THE WORK
The term "Work" means the construction and services required by the Contract Documents, whether completed or
partially completed, and includes all other labor, materials, equipment and services provided or to be provided by
the Contractor to fulfill the Contractor's obligations. The Work may constitute the whole or a part of the Project.
91.1.4 THE PROJECT
The Project is the total construction of which the Work performed under the Contract Documents may be the whole
or a part and which may include construction by the Owner or by separate contractors.
91.1.5 THE DRAWINGS
The Drawings are the graphic and pictorial portions of the Contract Documents showing the design, location and
dimensions of the Work, generally including plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules and diagrams.
91.1.6 THE SPECIFICATIONS
The Specifications are that portion of the Contract Documents consisting of the written requirements for materials,
equipment, systems, standards and workmanship for the Work, and performance of related services.
91.1.7 THE PROJECT MANUAL
The Project Manual is a volume assembled for the Work which may include the bidding requirements, sample
forms, Conditions of the Contract and Specifications.
91.2 CORRELATION AND INTENT OF THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
91.2.1 The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and
completion of the Work by the Contractor. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by
one shall be as binding as if required by all; performance by the Contractor shall be required only to the extent
consistent with the Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the
indicated results.
91.2.2 Organization of the Specifications into divisions, sections and articles, and arrangement of Drawings shall not
control the Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be
performed by any trade.
91.2.3 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, words which have well-known technical or construction
industry meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings.

~ 1.3.1 Terms capitalized in these General Conditions include those which are (1) specifically defined, (2) the titles
of numbered articles or (3) the titles of other documents published by the American Institute of Architects.
~ 1.4 INTERPRETATION
~ 1.4.1 In the interest of brevity the Contract Documents frequently omit modifying words such as "all" and "any"
and articles such as "the" and "an," but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one statement and appears
in another is not intended to affect the interpretation of either statement.
~ 1.5 EXECUTION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
~ 1.5.1 The Contract Documents shall be signed by the Owner and Contractor. If either the Owner or Contractor or
both do not sign all the Contract Documents, the Architect shall identify such unsigned Documents upon request.

become generally familiar with local conditions under which the Work is to be performed and correlated personal
observations with requirements of the Contract Documents.
~ 1.6 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF DRAWINGS, SPECIFICATIONS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS OF SERVICE
~ 1.6.1 The Drawings, Specifications and other documents, including those in electronic fOlm, prepared by the

statutory and other reserved rights, in addition to the copyrights. All copies of Instruments of Service, except the
Contractor's record set, shall be returned or suitably accounted for to the Architect, on request, upon completion of
the Work. The Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Architect and the Architect's
consultants, and copies thereof furnished to the Contractor, are for use solely with respect to this Project. They are
not to be used by the Contractor or any Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor or material or equipment supplier on other
projects or for additions to this Project outside the scope of the Work without the specific written consent of the
Owner, Architect and the Architect's consultants. The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors and material
orequipment suppliers are authorized to use and reproduce applicable portions of the Drawings, Specifications and
other documents prepared by the Architect and the Architect's consultants appropriate to and for use in the

The Architect will neither have control over or charge of, nor be responsible for, the construction means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures, or for the safety precautions and programs in connection with the Work, since
these are solely the Contractor's rights and responsibilities under the Contract Documents, except as provided in
Section 3.3.1.
~ 4.2.3 The Architect will not be responsible for the Contractor's failure to perform the Work in accordance with the
requirements of the Contract Documents. The Architect will not have control over or charge of and will not be
responsible for acts or omissions of the Contractor, Subcontractors, or their agents or employees, or any other
persons or entities performing portions of the Work.
94.2.4 Communications Facilitating Contract Administration. Except as otherwise provided in the Contract
Documents or when direct communications have been specially authorized, the Owner and Contractor shall
endeavor to communicate with each other through the Architect about matters arising out of or relating to the
Contract. Communications by and with the Architect's consultants shall be through the Architect. Communications
by and with Subcontractors and material suppliers shall be through the Contractor. Communications by and with
separate contractors shall be through the Owner.
94.2.5 Based on the Architect's evaluations of the Contractor's Applications for Payment, the Architect will review
and certify the amounts due the Contractor and will issue Certificates for Payment in such amounts.
94.2.6 The Architect will have authority to reject Work that does not conform to the Contract Documents. Whenever
the Architect considers it necessary or advisable, the Architect will have authority to require inspection or testing of
the Work in accordance with Sections 13.5.2 and 13.5.3, whether or not such Work is fabricated, installed or
completed. However, neither this authority of the Architect nor a decision made in good faith either to exercise or
not to exercise such authority shall give rise to a duty or responsibility of the Architect to the Contractor,
Subcontractors, material and equipment suppliers, their agents or employees, or other persons or entities performing
portions of the Work.
94.2.7 The Architect will review and approve or take other appropriate action upon the Contractor's submittals such
as Shop Drawings, Product Data and Samples, but only for the limited purpose of checking for conformance with
information given and the design concept expressed in the Contract Documents. The Architect's action will be taken
with such reasonable promptness as to cause no delay in the Work or in the activities of the Owner, Contractor or
separate contractors, while allowing sufficient time in the Architect's professional judgment to permit adequate
review. Review of such submittals is not conducted for the purpose of determining the accuracy and completeness of
other details such as dimensions and quantities, or for substantiating instructions for installation or perfonnance of
equipment or systems, all of which remain the responsibility of the Contractor as required by the Contract
Documents. The Architect's review of the Contractor's submittals shall not relieve the Contractor of the obligations
under Sections 3.3, 3.5 and 3.12. The Architect's review shall not constitute approval of safety precautions or, unless
otherwise specifically stated by the Architect, of any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or
procedures. The Architect's approval of a specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item
is a component.
94.2.8 The Architect will prepare Change Orders and Construction Change Directives, and may authorize minor
changes in the Work as provided in Section 7.4.
~ 4.2.9 The Architect will conduct inspections to determine the date or dates of Substantial Completion and the date
of final completion, will receive and forward to the Owner, for the Owner's review and records, written warranties
and related documents required by the Contract and assembled by the Contractor, and will issue a final Certificate
for Payment upon compliance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
~ 4.2.10 If the Owner and Architect agree, the Architect will provide one or more project representatives to assist in
carrying out the Architect's responsibilities at the site. The duties, responsibilities and limitations of authority of
such project representatives shall be as set forth in an exhibit to be incorporated in the Contract Documents.

~ 4.2.11 The Architect will interpret and decide matters concerning performance under and requirements of, the
Contract Documents on written request of either the Owner or Contractor. The Architect's response to such requests
will be made in writing within any time limits agreed upon or otherwise with reasonable promptness. If no
agreement is made concerning the time within which interpretations required of the Architect shall be furnished in
compliance with this Section 4.2, then delay shall not be recognized on account of failure by the Architect to furnish
such interpretations until 15 days after written request is made for them.
~ 4.2.12 Interpretations and decisions of the Architect will be consistent with the intent of and reasonably inferable
from the Contract Documents and will be in writing or in the form of drawings. When making such interpretations
and initial decisions, the Architect will endeavor to secure faithful performance by both Owner and Contractor, will
not show partiality to either and will not be liable for results of interpretations or decisions so rendered in good faith.
~ 4.2.13 The Architect's decisions on matters relating to aesthetic effect will be final if consistent with the intent
expressed in the Contract Documents.
~ 4.3 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES
~ 4.3.1 Definition. A Claim is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of right, adjustment or
interpretation of Contract terms, payment of money, extension of time or other relief with respect to the terms of the
Contract. The term "Claim" also includes other disputes and matters in question between the Owner and Contractor
arising out of or relating to the Contract. Claims must be initiated by written notice. The responsibility to
substantiate Claims shall rest with the party making the Claim.
~ 4.3.2 Time Limits on Claims. Claims by either party must be initiated within 21 days after occurrence of the event
giving rise to such Claim or within 21 days after the claimant first recognizes the condition giving rise to the Claim,
whichever is later. Claims must be initiated by written notice to the Architect and the other party.
~ 4.3.3 Continuing Contract Performance. Pending final resolution of a Claim except as otherwise agreed in writing
or as provided in Section 9.7.1 and Article 14, the Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of the
Contract and the Owner shall continue to make payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.
~ 4.3.4 Claims for Concealed 01' Unknown Conditions. If conditions are encountered at the site which are (1)
subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Contract
Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily
found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the
Contract Documents, then notice by the observing party shall be given to the other party promptly before conditions
are disturbed and in no event later than 21 days after first observance ofthe conditions. The Architect will promptly
investigate such conditions and, if they differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in the Contractor's cost
of, or time required for, perfomlance of any part of the Work, will recommend an equitable adjustment in the
Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Architect determines that the conditions at the site are not materially
different from those indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is justified,
the Architect shall so notify the Owner and Contractor in writing, stating the reasons. Claims by either party in
opposition to such determination must be made within 21 days after the Architect has given notice of the decision. If
the conditions encountered are materially different, the Contract Sum and Contract Time shall be equitably adjusted,
but if the Owner and Contractor cannot agree on an adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the
adjustment shall be referred to the Architect for initial determination, subject to further proceedings pursuant to
Section 4.4.
~ 4.3.5 Claims for Additional Cost. If the Contractor wishes to make Claim for an increase in the Contract Sum,
written notice as provided herein shall be given before proceeding to execute the Work. Prior notice is not required
for Claims relating to an emergency endangering life or property arising under Section 10.6.
~ 4.3.6 If the Contractor believes additional cost is involved for reasons including but not limited to (1) a written
interpretation from the Architect, (2) an order by the Owner to stop the Work where the Contractor was not at fault,
(3) a written order for a minor change in the Work issued by the Architect, (4) failure of payment by the Owner, (5)
termination of the Contract by the Owner, (6) Owner's suspension or (7) other reasonable grounds, Claim shall be
filed in accordance with this Section 4.3.

~ 4.3.7 Claims for Additional Time
~ 4.3.7.1 If the Contractor wishes to make Claim for an increase in the Contract Time, written notice as provided
herein shall be given. The Contractor's Claim shall include an estimate of cost and of probable effect of delay on
progress ofthe Work. In the case of a continuing delay only one Claim is necessary.
~ 4.3.7.2 If adverse weather conditions are the basis for a Claim for additional time, such Claim shall be documented
by data substantiating that weather conditions were abnormal for the period of time, could not have been reasonably
anticipated and had an adverse effect on the scheduled construction.
~ 4.3.8 Injury or Damage to Person or Property. If either party to the Contract suffers injury or damage to person or
property because of an act or omission of the other party, or of others for whose acts such party is legally
responsible, written notice of such injury or damage, whether or not insured, shall be given to the other party within
a reasonable time not exceeding 2 L days after discovery. The notice shall provide sufficient detail to enable the other
party to investigate the matter.
~ 4.3.9 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally
contemplated are materially changed in a proposed Change Order or Construction Change Directive so that
application of such unit prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or
Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted.
~ 4.3.10 Claims for Consequential Damages. The Contractor and Owner waive Claims against each other for
consequential damages arising out of or relating to this Contract. This mutual waiver includes:
.1 damages incurred by the Owner for rental expenses, for losses of use, income, profit, financing,
business and reputation, and for loss of management or employee productivity or of the services of
such persons; and
.2 damages incurred by the Contractor for principal office expenses including the compensation of
personnel stationed there, for losses of financing, business and reputation, and for loss of profit
except anticipated profit arising directly from the Work.
This mutual waiver is applicable, without limitation, to all consequential damages due to either party's termination
in accordance with Article 14. Nothing contained in this Section 4.3.1 0 shall be deemed to preclude an award of
liquidated direct damages, when applicable, in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
~ 4.4 RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS AND DISPUTES
~ 4.4.1 Decision of Architect. Claims, including those alleging an error or omission by the Architect but excluding
those arising under Sections 10.3 through 10.5, shall be referred initially to the Architect for decision. An initial
decision by the Architect shall be required as a condition precedent to mediation, arbitration or litigation of all
Claims between the Contractor and Owner arising prior to the date final payment is due, unless 30 days have passed
after the Claim has been referred to the Architect with no decision having been rendered by the Architect. The
Architect will not decide disputes between the Contractor and persons or entities other than the Owner.
~ 4.4.2 The Architect will review Claims and within ten days of the receipt of the Claim take one or more of the
following actions: (1) request additional supporting data from the claimant or a response with supporting data from
the other party, (2) reject the Claim in whole or in part, (3) approve the Claim, (4) suggest a compromise, or (5)
advise the parties that the Architect is unable to resolve the Claim if the Architect lacks sufficient information to
evaluate the merits of the Claim or if the Architect concludes that, in the Architect's sole discretion, it would be
inappropriate for the Architect to resolve the Claim.
~ 4.4.3 In evaLuating Claims, the Architect may, but shall not be obligated to, consult with or seek information from
either party or from persons with special knowledge or expertise who may assist the Architect in rendering a
decision. The Architect may request the Owner to authorize retention of such persons at the Owner's expense.
~ 4.4.4 If the Architect requests a party to provide a response to a Claim or to furnish additional supporting data,
such party shall respond, within ten days after receipt of such request, and shall either provide a response on the
requested supporting data, advise the Architect when the response or supporting data will be furnished or advise the
Architect that no supporting data will be furnished. Upon receipt of the response or supporting data, if any, the
Architect will either reject or approve the Claim in whole or in part.

~ 4.4.5 The Architect will approve or reject Claims by written decision, which shall state the reasons therefor and
which shall notify the parties of any change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time or both. The approval or rejection
of a Claim by the Architect shall be final and binding on the parties but subject to mediation and arbitration.
~ 4.4.6 When a written decision of the Architect states that (I) the decision is final but subject to mediation and
arbitration and (2) a demand for arbitration of a Claim covered by such decision must be made within 30 days after
the date on which the party making the demand receives the final written decision, then failure to demand arbitration
within said 30 days' period shall result in the Architect's decision becoming final and binding upon the Owner and
Contractor. If the Architect renders a decision after arbitration proceedings have been initiated, such decision may
be entered as evidence, but shall not supersede arbitration proceedings unless the decision is acceptable to all parties
concerned.
~ 4.4.7 Upon receipt of a Claim against the Contractor or at any time thereafter, the Architect or the Owner may, but
is not obligated to, notify the surety, if any, of the nature and amount of the Claim. If the Claim relates to a

otherwise, shall be in accordance with the Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration
Association currently in effect. Request for mediation shall be filed in writing with the other party to the Contract
and with the American Arbitration Association. The request may be made concurrently with the filing of a demand
for arbitration but, in such event, mediation shall proceed in advance of arbitration or legal or equitable proceedings,
which shall be stayed pending mediation for a period of 60 days from the date of filing, unless stayed for a longer
period by agreement of the parties or court order.
~ 4.5.3 The parties shall share the mediator's fee and any filing fees equally. The mediation shall be held in the place
where the Project is located, unless another location is mutually agreed upon. Agreements reached in mediation shall
be enforceable as settlement agreements in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

~ 4.6.1 Any Claim arising out of or related to the Contract, except Claims relating to aesthetic effect and except those
waived as provided for in Sections 4.3.10, 9.10.4 and 9.10.5, shall, after decision by the Architect or 30 days after
submission of the Claim to the Architect, be subject to arbitration. Prior to arbitration, the parties shall endeavor to
resolve disputes by mediation in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.5.
~ 4.6.2 Claims not resolved by mediation shall be decided by arbitration which, unless the parties mutually agree
otherwise, shall be in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration

by consolidation or joinder or in any other manner, the Architect, the Architect's employees or consultants, except
by written consent containing specific reference to the Agreement and signed by the Architect, Owner, Contractor
and any other person or entity sought to be joined. No arbitration shall include, by consolidation or joinder or in any
other manner, parties other than the Owner, Contractor, a separate contractor as described in Article 6 and other
persons substantially involved in a common question of fact or law whose presence is required if complete relief is
to be accorded in arbitration. No person or entity other than the Owner, Contractor or a separate contractor as
described in Article 6 shall be included as an original third party or additional third party to an arbitration whose
interest or responsibility is insubstantial. Consent to arbitration involving an additional person or entity shall not
constitute consent to arbitration of a Claim not described therein or with a person or entity not named or described
therein. The foregoing agreement to arbitrate and other agreements to arbitrate with an additional person or entity
duly consented to by parties to the Agreement shall be specifically enforceable under applicable law in any court
having jurisdiction thereof.

proposed for each principal portion of the Work. The Architect will promptly reply to the Contractor in writing
stating whether or not the Owner or the Architect, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any such
proposed person or entity. Failure of the Owner or Architect to reply promptly shall constitute notice of no
reasonable objection.

reasonable and timely objection. The Contractor shall not be required to contract with anyone to whom the
Contractor has made reasonable objection.

~ 5.3.1 By appropriate agreement, written where legally required for validity, the Contractor shall require each
Subcontractor, to the extent of the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor, to be bound to the Contractor by
terms of the Contract Documents, and to assume toward the Contractor all the obligations and responsibilities,
including the responsibility for safety of the Subcontractor's Work, which the Contractor, by these Documents,
assumes toward the Owner and Architect. Each subcontract agreement shall preserve and protect the rights of the
Owner and Architect under the Contract Documents with respect to the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor
so that subcontracting thereof will not prejudice such rights, and shall allow to the Subcontractor, unless specifically
provided otherwise in the subcontract agreement, the benefit of all rights, remedies and redress against the
Contractor that the Contractor, by the Contract Documents, has against the Owner. Where appropriate, the
Contractor shall require each Subcontractor to enter into similar agreements with Sub-subcontractors. The
Contractor shall make available to each proposed Subcontractor, prior to the execution of the subcontract agreement,
copies of the Contract Documents to which the Subcontractor will be bound, and, upon written request of the
Subcontractor, identify to the Subcontractor terms and conditions of the proposed subcontract agreement which may
be at variance with the Contract Documents. Subcontractors will similarly make copies of applicable portions of
such documents available to their respective proposed Sub-subcontractors.
~ 5.4 CONTINGENT ASSIGNMENT OF SUBCONTRACTS
~ 5.4.1 Each subcontract agreement for a portion of the Work is assigned by the Contractor to the Owner provided
that:
assignment is effective only after termination of the Contract by the Owner for cause pursuant to
Section 14.2 and only for those subcontract agreements which the Owner accepts by notifying the
Subcontractor and Contractor in writing; and
.2 assignment is subject to the prior rights of the surety, if any, obligated under bond relating to the
Contract.
~ 5.4.2 Upon such assignment, if the Work has been suspended for more than 30 days, the Subcontractor's
compensation shall be equitably adjusted for increases in cost resulting from the suspension.
ARTICLE 6 CONSTRUCTION BY OWNER OR BY SEPARATE CONTRACTORS
~ 6.1 OWNER'S RIGHT TO PERFORM CONSTRUCTION AND TO AWARD SEPARATE CONTRACTS
~ 6.1.1 The Owner reserves the right to perform construction or operations related to the Project with the Owner's
own forces, and to award separate contracts in connection with other portions of the Project or other construction or
operations on the site under Conditions of the Contract identical or substantially similar to these including those
portions related to insurance and waiver of subrogation. If the Contractor claims that delay or additional cost is
involved because of such action by the Owner, the Contractor shall make such Claim as provided in Section 4.3.
~ 6.1.2 When separate contracts are awarded for different portions of the Project or other construction or operations
on the site, the term "Contractor" in the Contract Documents in each case shall mean the Contractor who executes
each separate Owner-Contractor Agreement.
~ 6.1.3 The Owner shall provide for coordination of the activities of the Owner's own forces and of each separate
contractor with the Work of the Contractor, who shall cooperate with them. The Contractor shall participate with
other separate contractors and the Owner in reviewing their construction schedules when directed to do so. The
Contractor shall make any revisions to the construction schedule deemed necessary after a joint review and mutual
agreement. The construction schedules shall then constitute the schedules to be used by the Contractor, separate
contractors and the Owner until subsequently revised.
~ 6.1.4 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, when the Owner performs construction or operations
related to the Project with the Owner's own forces, the Owner shall be deemed to be subject to the same obligations
and to have the same rights which apply to the Contractor under the Conditions of the Contract, including, without
excluding others, those stated in Article 3, this Article 6 and Articles 10, II and 12.
~ 6.2 MUTUAL RESPONSIBILITY
~ 6.2.1 The Contractor shall afford the Owner and separate contractors reasonable opportunity for introduction and
storage of their materials and equipment and performance of their activities, and shall connect and coordinate the
Contractor's construction and operations with theirs as required by the Contract Documents.

the Owner or a separate contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly
report to the Architect apparent discrepancies or defects in such other construction that would render it unsuitable
for such proper execution and results. Failure of the Contractor so to report shall constitute an acknowledgment that
the Owner's or separate contractor's completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the
Contractor's Work, except as to defects not then reasonably discoverable.
S 6.2.3 The Owner shall be reimbursed by the Contractor for costs incurred by the Owner which are payable to a
separate contractor because of delays, improperly timed activities or defective construction of the Contractor. The
Owner shall be responsible to the Contractor for costs incurred by the Contractor because of delays, improperly
timed activities, damage to the Work or defective construction of a separate contractor.

~ 7.3.3 If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment shall be
based on one of the following methods:
.1 mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to
permit evaluation;
.2 unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon;
.3 cost to be detelmined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or
percentage fee; or
.4 as provided in Section 73.6.
~ 7.3.4 Upon receipt of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in
the Work involved and advise the Architect of the Contractor's agreement or disagreement with the method, if any,
provided in the Construction Change Directive for determining the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or
Contract Time.
~ 7.3.5 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the agreement of the Contractor
therewith, including adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such
agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order.
~ 7.3.6 If the Contractor does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract Sum,
the method and the adjustment shall be determined by the Architect on the basis of reasonable expenditures and
savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change, including, in case of an increase in the Contract
Sum, a reasonable allowance for overhead and profit. In such case, and also under Section 7.3.3.3, the Contractor
shall keep and present, in such form as the Architect may prescribe, an itemized accounting together with

~ 7.3.7 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change which results in a
net decrease in the Contract Sum shall be actual net cost as confirmed by the Architect. When both additions and
credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in a change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall
be figured on the basis of net increase, if any, with respect to that change.
~ 7.3.8 Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, amounts not in
dispute for such changes in the Work shall be included in Applications for Payment accompanied by a Change
Order indicating the parties' agreement with part or all of such costs. For any portion of such cost that remains in

such extent as may be necessary in the Architect's opinion to protect the Owner from loss for which the Contractor
is responsible, including loss resulting from acts and omissions described in Section 3.3.2, because of:

separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Architect a comprehensive list of
items to be completed or corrected prior to final payment. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the
responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
~ 9.8.3 Upon receipt of the Contractor's list, the Architect will make an inspection to determine whether the Work or
designated pOltion thereof is substantially complete. If the Architect's inspection discloses any item, whether or not
included on the Contractor's list, which is not sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so
that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work or designated portion thereof for its intended use, the Contractor
shall, before issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification
by the Architect. In such case, the Contractor shall then submit a request for another inspection by the Architect to
determine Substantial Completion.

interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the
Owner. If a Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the Owner, the Contractor may furnish a

payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the Owner all money that the Owner may be compelled to pay in
discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.

Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the
remaining balance for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than retainage stipulated in the Contract
Documents, and if bonds have been furnished, the written consent of surety to payment of the balance due for that
portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Architect prior to
certification of such payment. Such payment shall be made under terms and conditions governing final payment,
except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims.

I am available. Just let me know when and where.
Good news for the council.. .on this grant there is no match requirement. Some staff time will be devoted to grant writing
on the front end and then work plan development, letting an RFP for consultants, grant management and reporting if the
grant is awarded. Maybe 100-120 hours of staff time total, depending on how much or little you use the consultant and

Aaron,
Thanks for the info. I am on the City Council agenda (as a department report) next Tuesday, 8/23, at 7:00pm. The
purpose will be to inform the City Council of MDC's action to support the City as lead applicant and to give them an
overview of the application. If you're available, it would be great to have you attend and give highlights of the process (10
minutes max.). The council will be especially interested in any financial match or other commitments they may need to
budget for.
Please let me know if you're available and/or if you have other suggestions for this discussion with council.
Thanks,

Brad,
Attached are copies of the CCDC hazardous waste assessment grant application, EPA's comments on that application,
and the work plan for their successful petroleum assessment grant (to give you an idea of the paperwork required to
actually reach a cooperative agreement with EPA - post award). I believe I provided a hard copy of their successful
petroleum grant, which was nearly identical to the hazardous grant application.
When do you think this matter will come before the council for a vote? Please let me know if you would like me to come
over and pitch the idea with you. Again, I will be on vacation from 9/5-9/19. I look forward to hearing from you and
working with you on this application.

EPA Assessment Grant Background Information
Assessment grants provide funding for a grant recipient to inventory, characterize, assess, and
conduct planning and community involvement related to brownfield sites. An eligible entity may
apply for up to $200,000 to assess a site contaminated by hazardous substances, pollutants, or
contaminants (including hazardous substances co-mingled with petroleum) and up to $200,000 to
address a site contaminated by petroleum. Applicants may seek a waiver of the $200,000 limit
and request up to $350,000 for a site contaminated by hazardous substances, pollutants, or
contaminants and up to $350,000 to assess a site contaminated by petroleum. Such waivers
must be based on the anticipated level of hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants
(including hazardous substances co-mingled with petroleum) at a single site. Total grant fund
requests should not exceed a total of $400,000 unless such a waiver is requested. Due to budget
limitations, no entity may apply for more than $700,000 in assessment funding. The performance
period for these grants is two years.
EPA provides for Areawide Assessments where the City can apply to assess multiple properties
within a defined area. Capital City Development Corp in Boise was awarded a $200,000
Brownfield Petroleum Assessment Grant from EPA last year. They are using the money to
identify underused, potentially contaminated properties within their urban renewal districts. They
work with willing landowners and, if necessary, design cleanup strategies so the properties can
be redeveloped. The MDC Board of Directors supports the CIty and is willing to participate in a
similar application where key properties, especially along the UPRR corridor and In Old Town,
would be assessed for any potential environmental contamination.

Subject:
Cedar Springs Professional Center - Development Agreement
Request for Miscellaneous Application to Modify Conditions in the Development
Agreement for Cedar Springs Professional Center, by L)'lill A. Brown (File No.
Ml-05-008)
Staff has reviewed the above referenced submittal and offers the following comments:
APPLICATION BACKGROUND & SUMMARY
The applicant, Lynn A. Brown, has submitted a Miscellaneous Application (MI) to amend the
recorded Development Agreement (First Addendum, Instrument #105058639) for the Cedar
Springs Professional Center. The property is legally described as Block 25 of Cedar Springs
Subdivision No.6 and is located at the northeast corner ofW. Ustick Road and N. Venable
Lane. The original Development Agreement (DA) was entered into on May 6, 2002, as part of
the Cedar Springs Subdivision annexation (File #AZ-00-019). A First Addendum to that DA
was approved by City Council on May 3,2005, as part of the Cedar Springs Professional Center
rezone and conditional use pelmit (File #RZ-03-013). This application is proposing a Second
Addendum to the DA. Parties to the existing DA are Howell-Murdoch Development
Corporation (represented by Kevin A. Howell) and the City of Meridian. Since the last DA was
recorded, the subject property was soLd and is now under new ownership.
The original DA (Instrument #102067381) restricted use of the property to single family
residential only. It was restricted only because of the R-4 zoning approved with the annexation
and rezone application. The purpose of the First Addendum earlier this year was to allow the
new uses that were approved under the Cedar Springs Professional Office rezone
MI-05-008
Exhibit "A"
Page 1
(Neighborhood Commercial) and conditional use permit to be constructed in the subdivision
(carwash, coffee stand/kiosk, fuel pumps and office). The purpose of this Second Addendum
is to request a modification to two sections of the First Addendum regarding new land uses
and hours of operation.
Staff recommends aoproval of the aoplicant's request to amend the Development Agreement
with modifications as proposed below. .
OWNER OF RECORD
The owner of record for the subject property is Robert W. Montgomery. He submitted notarized
consent for the subject application to be submitted by Lynn A. Brown.
STAFF ANALYSIS
As noted, both the original DA and the First Addendum simply referenced land uses that were
approved with the applications submitted with the annexation and rezone applications _
residential only for the original DA and a carwash, coffee kiosk and offices for the second
DA. The use restrictions were included in the First Addendum at the request of the applicant,
even though the C-N zone was approved and would have allowed a much broader range of
uses without the DA. At the time, Howell Murdoch did not anticipate any other uses other
than what the conditional use permit site plan showed and, therefore, did not oppose to the
DA restrictions.
Proposed Amendments
C-Store: The new owner (Montgomery) is now proposing to remove a carwash bay on the
south end of the carwash structure to construct a convenience store (approx. 1,800 sq. ft.).
The building square footage, parking, fuel pumps, vacuums locations and most other site plan
features would remain as approved under the CUP application. All subdivision infrastructure
improvements are already constructed. As proposed, the DA amendment would affect all five
lots (the carwash/kiosk lot and the four office lots) and, unless modified, would allow all lots
to have C-stores and 24-hour operations. Staff's understanding from the applicant, though, is
that the C-store is currently only proposed on Lot 1, Block 25 and they are not seeking to
allow C-stores on any other lots. This should be clarified at the meeting.
Hours of Operation: The applicant is also proposing the C-store be permitted to operate as a
24-hour operation. The First Addendum and conditional use permit include the following
restrictions on hours of operation within Cedar Springs Professional Center:
· Drive-through coffee stand - 6:00am to 8:00pm
· Carwash and fuel pumps - 24 hours
· Fuel delivery and refrigerated truck operation - 7:00am to 6:00pm
MI-05-008
Exhibit "A"
Page 2
So, since the existing DA and CUP already allow the carwash and fuel pumps to operate for
24 hours, if this MI application is approved, the only change to the hours of operation would
be adding the C-store as also being permitted to operate for 24 hours.
Staffbelieves there are three main questions that the City Council should address in reviewing
this application:
1. Was there neighborhood opposition and/or concern to retail or C-store uses
during the original Cedar Springs Professional Center public hearings?
Staff reviewed the minutes from both the P &Z Commission and City Council public
hearings for the Cedar Springs Professional Center RZ and CUP applications. Mr.
Joe Simunich, property owner on the south side of Ustick Road, was the only
neighbor to testifY at the P&Z Commission hearing. He opposed the office and auto-
oriented uses adjacent to an elementary school. He also stated his preference for
residential uses and that a carwash is not needed in this part of the city. Mr.
Simunich and Mr. Bill Jackson both testified at the City Council hearing. Mr.
Simunich repeated his concerns and Mr. Jackson agreed. Mr. Jackson also
encouraged the City Council to not commingle filel dispensing with residences and
schools.
There were specific references to C-stores made during the March16, 2004 City
Council meeting These references are quoted below:
· Councilman Wardle: 1 wouldjust like to say, asfar as the commercial
development and the level of commercial, we are certainly not loolang at a
Maverick convenience store. We are looking at several smaller commercial
entities, a car wash, and what 1 perceive to be a gas card fuel pump center,
which would have probably much less impact than a convenience store, and
so 1 see that as meeting the needs of the Comprehensive Plan.
· Councilman Bird: 1 would echo that.
· Councilman Nary: 1 guess on that same line, Anna, I think I heard Mr. Fluke
say that this was the lowest intense use of zoning for the commercial zoning. I
mean, is a C-store even allowed in that type of zone. . .?
· Powell: I believe it actually is. (They are permitted without a CUP in the C-N
zone)
So, while the City Council did not specifically request C-stores be prohibited by the
DA, it could be inferred that the Council granted the C-N zone and CUP with the
understanding that a C-store was not being proposed and this made them more
comfortable with the approval.
2. Do the proposed DA modifications conform with the Zoning Ordinance and
Comprehensive Plan?
MI-05-008
Exhibit "A"
Page 3
Zoning Ordinance - Both the pending Unified Development Code and the existing
Schedule of Use Control allow Convenience Stores as a permitted use. Other retail
uses are conditional. The ordinance does not address 24-hour operations directly.
These are incorporated into the general operating standards of each zone which
address neighborhood compatibility and other general noise and light standards.
Comprehensive Plan - The Future Land Use Map designates this area as Mixed
Use-Community and as a Neighborhood Center. The intent of the area is to fimction
as an activity center where residents within a one to two mile radius can obtain daily
services. Chapter VII (page. 98) of the Comprehensive Plan does list convenience
store-type uses as being encouraged in these centers and meet the intent of this
policy.
3. Is a C-store an appropriate use adjacent to a future elementary school?
On August 17'11, Staff spoke with Wendell Bigham of Joint School District No.2 and
asked for any comments on the subject application.. Mr. Bigham said the District has
addressed this issue in other areas and does not oppose this type of use.
Idaho Code 23-303 does prohibit liquor stores or distribution stations within 300
feet of schools. The proposed C-store would exceed this distance.
Idaho Code 67-6533 also prohibits sexually explicit and obscene material from
being sold within 2,500ftet of schools. It is not clear from the application if this type
of material would be available at this location.
It is unclear as to the specific amount of traffic the proposed C-store would generate.
ACHD does calculate higher traffic volumes from a C-store than a carwash. This
would especially true if the C-store was approved for a 24-hour use.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
If this application is approved as submitted, a new condition will be added to the DA which
adds C-store as a permitted use. Staff generally supports the proposed change. However, we do
recommend a restriction that the C-store use and 24-hour operation be allowed only on Lot 1,
Block 25 of Cedar Springs Subdivision No.6, and not apply to all five lots.
The City Council has the option of preserving all, some or none ofthe existing DA conditions.
Please note that if the Council chooses to approve this application, there would be no conditions
of approval. It is solely a request to amend the existing DA.

Zoning Amendment Findings
According to Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to
Zoning Amendments, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and Council are required
"to review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in
terms of the following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the
following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by City Council:
"A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
City Council finds the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
designates the subject property as "Low Density Residentia1." The purpose of this
designation is "to allow for the development of single-family homes at densities
of three dwelling units or less per acre... Density bonuses may also be considered
with the provision of public amenities such as open space, pathways, or land
dedicated for public services." (See Chapter VII, pg. 95.) The applicant has
submitted a letter listing several Comprehensive Plan policies that support the
proposed applications.
The requested R-8 zone is a medium density residential zone. The Comprehensive
Plan allows one "step" (i.e. low to medium) in densities/zoning without requiring
a Comprehensive Plan amendment. The applicant is requesting the one step up in
density because retirement homes are not permitted in low density zoning
districts; the R-8 zone is the first available zone to operate retirement homes. City
Council finds that if the City allows this parcel to step up one residential zoning
district, the requested R-8 zoning will generally conform to this stated purpose
and intent of the low density designation, as allowed by Note #2 on the Future
Land Use Map.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
If the concurrent preliminary plat and conditional use permit applications are
approved, City Council does not believe that the applicant intends to rezone the
property in the future.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
The applicant calls the proposed buildings "assisted living" facilities, which are
undefined in MCC 11-2-2, but listed as a condition use in MCC 11-8-1.
"Retirement Homes", listed as a conditional use in MCC 11-8-1, but undefined in
MCC 11-2-2, have generally been defined by the City as being independent living
areas with residents capable of self-preservation. Housekeeping and family-style
dining services will be provided to the residents of this community, but the
residents will require minimum assistance (see Applicant's letter). City Council
believes that this will be a non-convalescent facility with residents capable of self-
care. Although retirement homes, nursing homes, and assisted living all require
conditional use pennit approval in the requested R-8 zone, based on the
applicant's letter City Council has determined the proposed development to be a
retirement home. Therefore, the concurrent CUP application must be approved for
the development to proceed. The existing single-family home on the proposed Lot
2 is allowed in the requested R-8 zone.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Within the last couple of years, this area has substantially changed. Messina
Village, Tuscany Lakes, Soda Springs and Sutherland Farms Subdivisions have
all begun constructing homes on what was once agricultural land. Further,
Kingsbridge Subdivision was also recently approved for residential development
along Eagle Road in this section. Eagle Road was widened between Overland and
the Ridenbaugh Canal recently, approximately :x of a mile to 'the north. Falcon
Drive has been constructed as a local street abutting the site. Eagle Road adjacent
to this site not been widened in the recent past, but the Eagle RoadNictory Road
intersection is scheduled for improvements in 2006. The majority of the land uses
in the area are still rural with low to medium residential densities. Although the
proposed use is not really similar to any of the other uses in the area, City Council
believes that the proposed zoning for a retirement community seems to be
appropriate for this site and should be compatible with other land uses in the area.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
The applicant will be required to construct, operate and maintain the future
buildings in accordance with City Code. According to the Future Land Use Map,
this area is intended for low density residential uses. City Council finds that the
proposed uses, ifdesigned, constructed and operated in accordance with adopted
city ordinances and the PP and CUP conditions of approval, should be
hannonious and appropriate in appearance Witll the existing and intended
character of the vicinity.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
City Council finds that the proposed units for the elderly should be compatible
with, and compliments the existing single-family residences to the north, south,
east and west. The Commission and Council shall rely on public testimony to
determine whether the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazardous to the
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
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Sanitary sewer is available in Eagle Road past the southern boundary ofthis
project. Water is available in Eagle Road for the entire frontage of this property.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay any
applicable park and highway impact fees as well as construct on-site storm water
drainage facilities.
On July 1, 2005, ajoint agency and department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key 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.
City Council finds that the subject property can be served adequately by all
essential public facilities and City services.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
The Meridian Fire Department has commented that developments for the elderly
may have the potential for more services than typical single-family residential
developments. As noted in the finding above, all public facilities and services can
be provided to this site. All required site improvements will be funded and
constructed by the applicant/developer. City Council finds that the proposed use
will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community, nor will the
use create the need for any new facilities or services to be paid for by the public.
I. Will the proposed uses 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;
City Council finds that the proposed uses will create additional traffic on the
adjacent roads. Further, the parking and maneuvering of cars and pedestrians may
generate additional noise for surrounding properties. However, City Council does
not believe that the additional traffic and noise should be excessive. City Council
finds that the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons,
property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production oftraffic, noise,
smoke, fumes, glare or odors, if all conditions included in the report are complied
with.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
City Council finds that any future use of this site will impact the level and flow of
traffic on the surrounding streets. Access to this site is proposed via two
driveways to Falcon Drive, a local street. One driveway will serve the existing
home, and the second driveway will serve the retirement community. No access to
Eagle Road is proposed. The applicant should comply with ACHD policies in
order to preserve the capacity and movement on the adjacent roadways. City
Council finds that the proposed vehicular approaches to Falcon Drive, should not
create interference with traffic on surrounding public streets (Please see ACHD
report for more information).
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
City Council is not aware of any natural or scenic features that may be lost,
damaged or destroyed with the approval of the subject applications.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592,11-17-1992)"
The legal description submitted with the application, prepared by Fox Land
Surveys, Inc., shows that the property is contiguous to the existing corporate
boundary of the City of Meridian. City Council finds that all essential services are
available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not
require unreasonable expenditure of public fimds. The application substantially
complies with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map. The land to
the southwest of the subject property has previously been annexed into the City
and this is a logical expansion of the City boundary. In accordance with the
findinf!s listed above Otv Council finds that the rezone of this DrODertv would be
in the best interest of the Citv. NOTE: The City Council has included a
requirement for a Development Agreement on this site.

Zoning Amendment Findings
According to Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to
Zoning Amendments, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and Council are required
"to review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in
tenns ofthe following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the
following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by City Council:
"A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
City Council finds the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
designates the subject property as "Low Density Residential." The purpose of this
designation is "to allow for the development of single-family homes at densities
of three dwelling units or less per acre... Density bonuses may also be considered
with the provision of public amenities such as open space, pathways, or land
dedicated for public services." (See Chapter VII, pg. 95.) The applicant has
submitted a letter listing' several Comprehensive Plan policies that support the
proposed applications.
The requested R-8 zone is a medium density residential zone. The Comprehensive
Pian allows one "step" (i.e. low to medium) in densities/zoning without requiring
a Comprehensive Plan amendment. The applicant is requesting the one step up in
density because retirement homes are not pennitted in low density zoning
districts; the R-8 zone is the first available zone to operate retirement homes. City
Council finds that if the City allows this parcel to step up one residential zoning
district, the requested R-8 zoning will generally confonn to this stated purpose
and intent of the low density designation, as allowed by Note #2 on the Future
Land Use Map.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
If the concurrent preliminary plat and conditionai use permit applications are
approved, City Council does not believe that the applicant intends to rezone the
property in the future.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
The applicant calls the proposed buildings "assisted living" facilities, which are
undefined in MCC 11-2-2, but listed as a condition use in MCC 11-8-1.
"Retirement Homes", listed as a conditional use in MCC 11-8-1, but undefined in
MCC 1 ] -2-2, have generally been defined by the City as being independent living
areas with residents capable of self-preservation. Housekeeping and family-style
dining services will be provided to the residents of this community, but the
residents will require minimum assistance (see Applicant's letter). City Council
believes that this will be a non-convalescent facility with residents capable of self-
care. Although retirement homes, nursing homes, and assisted living all require
conditional use permit approval in the requested R-8 zone, based on the
applicant's letter City Council has determined the proposed development to be a
retirement home. Therefore, the concurrent CUP application must be approved for
the development to proceed. The existing single-family home on the proposed Lot
2 is allowed in the requested R-8 zone.
n. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Within the last couple of years, this area has substantially changed. Messina
Village, Tuscany Lakes, Soda Springs and Sutherland Farms Subdivisions have
all begun constructing homes on what was once agricultural land. Further,
Kingsbridge Subdivision was also recently approved for residential development
along Eagle Road in this section. Eagle Road was widened between Overland and
the Ridenbaugh Canal recently, approximately ~ of a mile to the north. Falcon
Drive has been constructed as a local street abutting the site. Eagle Road adjacent
to this site not been widened in the recent past, but the Eagle RoadNictory Road
intersection is scheduled for improvements in 2006. The majority of the land uses
in the area are still rural with low to medium residential densities. Although the
proposed use is not really similar to any of the other uses in the area, City Council
believes that the proposed zoning for a retirement community seems to be
appropriate for this site and should be compatible with other land uses in the area.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
The applicant will be required to construct, operate and maintain the future
buildings in accordance with City Code. According to the Future Land Use Map,
this area is intended for low density residential uses. City Council finds that the
proposed uses, if designed, constructed and operated in accordance with adopted
city ordinances and the PP and CUP conditions of approval, should be
hannonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing and intended
character of the vicinity.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
City Council finds that the proposed units for the elderly should be compatible
with, and compliments the existing single-family residences to the north, south,
east and west. The Conunission and Council shall rely on public testimony to
detennine whether the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazardous to the
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
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Sanitary sewer is available in Eagle Road past the southern boundary of this
project. Water is available in Eagle Road for the entire frontage of this property.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay any
applicable park and highway impact fees as well as construct on-site storm water
drainage facilities.
On July 1,2005, a joint agency and department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key 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.
City Council finds that the subject property can be served adequately by all
essential public facilities and City services.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
The Meridian Fire Department has commented that developments for the elderly
may have the potential for more services than typical single-family residential
developments. As noted in the finding above, all public facilities and services can
be provided to this site. All required site improvements will be funded and
constructed by the applicant/developer. City Council finds that the proposed use
will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community, nor will the
use create the need for any new facilities or services to be paid for by the public.
I. Will the proposed uses 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;
City Council finds that the proposed uses will create additional traffic on the
adjacent roads. Further, the parking and maneuvering of cars and pedestrians may
generate additional noise for surrounding properties. However, City Council does
not believe that the additional traffic and noise should be excessive. City Council
finds that the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons,
property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise,
smoke, fumes, glare or odors, if all conditions included in the report are complied
with.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
City Council finds that any future use of this site will impact the level and flow of
traffic on the surrounding streets. Access to this site is proposed via two
driveways to Falcon Drive, a local street. One driveway will serve the existing
home, and the second driveway will serve the retirement community. No access to
Eagle Road is proposed. The applicant should comply with ACHD policies in
order to preserve the capacity and movement on the adjacent roadways. City
Council finds that the proposed vehicular approaches to Falcon Drive, should not
create interference with traffic on surrounding public streets (Please see ACHD
report for more information).
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
City Council is not aware of any natural or scenic features that may be lost,
damaged or destroyed with the approval of the subject applications.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)"
The legal description submitted with the application, prepared by Fox Land
Surveys, Inc., shows that the property is contiguous to the existing corporate
boundary of the City of Meridian. City Council finds that all essential services are
available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not
require unreasonable expenditure of public funds. The application substantially
complies with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map. The land to
the southwest of the subject property has previously been annexed into the City
and this is a logical expansion of the City boundary. In accordance with the
findimzs listed above Citv Council finds that the rezone of this orODertv would be
in the best interest of the Citv. NOTE: The City Council has included a
requirement for a Development Agreement on this site.

PRELIMINARY PLAT SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. Public Streets and Access:
Connectivitv (lnl!lenook Subdivisions):
The stub street from Inglenook Subdivision shall connect to E. Horse Creek Street
and again north to Inglenook Subdivision on Inglenook Avenue. The subdivision
is constrained by previous development in the area and is bound by ACHD
policies of interconnectivity. No direct access to Locust Grove Road is approved
with this subdivision.
2. Landscauinl!: Staff is generally supportive of the absence of a landscaping design
with the following considerations: Non-combustible fencing should be included
on the eastern border of the Eight Mile Creek, and perimeter fencing shall be
designed according to MCC 12-13 and maintained by the home owners
association. See Site Specific Condition #7 below.
Tree Mitigation: There are several large trees on this site that the applicant is
proposing to remove or relocate, Any tree over 4" in caliper that is removed from
the property shall be replaced by installing additional trees, being the equivalent
number of caliper inches of trees that were removed. Required landscaping trees
will not be considered as replacement trees for those trees that are removed (MCC
12-13-13-3). The applicant should coordinate a tree protection/mitigation plan
with Elroy Huff at the Meridian Park Department. See Site Specific Condition #7
below.
4. Ditches Laterals and Canals: Per MCC 12-4-13, all irrigation ditches, laterals or
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit C
canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent
and contiguous to the area being subdivided shall be tiled. Staff is unaware of
the official status of the Eight Mile Creek; it appears to be maintained by Nampa
Meridian Irrigation and is considered a natural feature and does not require tiling.
See Site Specific Condition #8 below
5. Pressure Irrigation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation
systems be supplied by a year-round source of water (MCC 12-13-8.3). The
applicant should be required to utilize any existing surface or well water for the
primary source. If a surface or well source is not available, a single-point
connection to the culinary water system shall be required. If a single-point
connection is utilized, the developer will be responsible for the payment of
assessments for the common areas prior to signature on the final plat by the City
Engineer. An underground, pressurized irrigation system should be installed to all
landscape areas per the approved specifications and in accordance with MCC 12-
13-8 and MCC 9-1-28. See Site Specific Condition #9 below,
6. Fencing: The applicant is proposing to construct a minimum of a five foot tall
solid fence around the perimeter of the site. A detailed fencing plan should be
submitted upon application of the final plat (MCC 12-4-10.F.3). If permanent
fencing is not provided, temporary construction fencing to contain debris must be
installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building permit. All fences
should taper down to 3 feet maximum within 20 feet of all right-of-way. All
fencing should be installed in accordance with MCC 12-4-10. Fencing along the
Eight Mile Drain shall be constructed with a non-combustible material.

Required Findings
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to Zoning Amendments,
both the P&Z Commission and Council are required "to review the particular facts and
circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in tenns of the following standards
and shall find adequate evidence answering the following questions about the proposed
zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff:
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'Medium density' is defined as areas
including single-family homes at densities oftbree to eight dwelling units per acre
with the allowances of smaller lots for residential purposes. The applicant is
requesting that all the subject site be zoned R-4 (Medium-Low Density
Residential). The R-4 district allows for a maximum of four (4) dwelling units per
acre (MCCll-7-2.B). The proposed residential density for this site is 3.28 gross
dwelling units per acre as calculated by the applicant, or 9 units per 2.74 acres.
Staff finds that the proposed zoninll desi!ffiation R-4 is harmonious with and in
accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map which
designates the land to be Medium Densitv Residential. There is a minimum target
density of three dwelling units per acre in the Comprehensive Plan; the proposed
gross density of The Enclave Subdivision is 3.28 dwelling units per acre which is
slightly lower than surrounding developments but not outside the acceptable
tolerance for infill development. Inglenook 3.35 du/acre - Sageland 3.85 du/acre
-Chesterfield 4.63du/acre.
The following Comprehensive Plan policies support this proposal:
· 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 properties. The City of Meridian plans to provide
municipal services to the lands proposed to be annexed in the following
manner:
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
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 Rural Fire District. Once annexed the lands will be
under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who
currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural
Fire Department. Fire and Emergency Medical Services will be
provided by Meridian City Fire Station #3, The subject lands lie
within 1.5 miles of the recently opened Meridian City Fire Station
#3 and lie within the Meridian Fire Department's five-minute
response zone.
The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada
County Sheriff's Office, Once annexed the lands will be serviced
by 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.
The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library
District. This service will not change and the Meridian Library
District should suffer no revenue loss as a result of the subject
annexation.
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
and Zoning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary
Services Company.
Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use
development on adjacent parcels (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action
1 )
All of the properties adjacent to the subject site are designated for medium
density residential uses on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map.
· Support a variety of residential categories (1ow-, 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 IV, Objective C, Action
10)
The subject property is designated Medium-Density Residential on the Future
Land Use Map which identifies this area as an appropriate area for medium-
density residential development. This proposal meets the Comprehensive
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit 0
Plan definition of medium-density, with a gross density of 3,28 dwelling units
per acre.
· Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to
enhance connectivity and better traffic flow (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A,
Action 6)
The street connections provided from inglenook have been connected as
planned (see ACHD report for details). This subdivision is the last infill
development in the near vicinity and will not be required to stub to adjacent
properties as there is no further development expected at the boundaries of
this development.
· Preserve, protect, enhance, and utilize our natural resources in Meridian and
surrounding areas. Preserve and conserve our waterways, wetlands, wildlife
habitat, and other natural resources. (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A)
The Eight Mile Creek waterway is the only distinguishable natural feature at
this location. Staff feels the open ftncing and maintenance free of noxious
materials will enhance the surrounding area. Wetlands, and alternate natural
resources are absent from this site and the subject property has designed the
common/open space around preserving the eight mile creek corridor for
wildlife habitat and enhancing the waterways.
· Develop policies and incentives to encourage infiU and contiguous
development. (Chapter V Goal I Objective A Action 8)
The applicant has requested a slightly lower density relative to the immediate
vicinity and will be developing larger lots with a unique neighborhood
attractiveness, The applicant has continued the plans for development and the
proposal meets the agencies expectations with preservation of the waterway
and connections to existing stub streets.
· Offer a diversity of housing types for a greater range of choice. Encourage
quality housing project for aU economic levels in a variety of areas, (Chapter
VII Goal V Objective A)
The anticipated products for the site will be unique single family residences
available to individual buyers who are seeldng a medium-large lot closer to
the urban center.
· Support infill of random vacant lots in substantially developed, single-family
areas at densities similar to surrounding development. Increased densities on
random vacant lots should be considered if: Development of uses other than
single-family structures are compatible with surrounding development as it
complies with the current comprehensive plan. (Chapter VII Goal V Objective
A Action 10)
The proposed density, size of lots and unique roadway design will allow for a
less dense proposal with larger lots, not requiring special circumstances,
TIle Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
· Apply design and perfonnance standards to infilling development in order to
reduce adverse impacts upon existing adjacent development. (Chapter VII
Goal V Objective A Action 11)
Staff does not forsee negative impact on surrounding development outside of
the construction phase. The site has an existing residence which will remain
and the size, number, and quality of the houses is similar in nature to the
surrounding developments that the proposal should be indistinguishable upon
build out.
Staff finds that the proposed R-4 zoning designation is hannonious with and in
accordance with the Comprehensive Plan
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Staff does not anticipate that the applicant intends to rezone the subject property
in the future.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
Staff finds that single-family residential uses are allowed within the requested
zoning district of R-4, Medium-Low Density Residential permits the
establishment of residential uses and is designed to protect the integrity of
residential development by prohibiting the intrusion of incompatible
nonresidential uses. The accompanying plat demonstrates the land will be
developed with lot sizes, housing types and other dimensional requirements that
conform to the proposed zoning designation,
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Staff finds that recent residential developments to the south have been approved
for development similar to the proposed subdivision, with single-family
residences. Development in the area has limited the main trunk sewer capacity.
Currently sewer is available in N. Inglenook avenue that stubs into this project
from Inglenook Subdivision, There are currently sewer capacity concerns south of
the freeway; however this development is not sewering out of its service area to
the Ten Mile Trunk. Therefore it does not contribute the capacity concerns.
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
Based on the ACHD Long Range 2030 proposal, Locust Grove Road is
anticipated to eventually be a 3-lane roadway abutting this site. However, Locust
Grove Road is not currently included within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or
in the currently adopted 20-year Capital Improvements Plan for roadway
improvements.
Local Street ofN. Inglenook Way is an ACHD rights-of-way and provides a stub
connection to the property. ACHD and the City of Meridian will require the
proposed development connect these roadways as proposed. The design for
Inglenook Ave within Enclave Subdivision shall meet the requirements of the
turnarounds as approved by the Meridian Fire Department.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
Staff finds that the requested zoning and proposed density meets the anticipated
range for a medium density urban project. Based on the Comprehensive Plan,
staff believes that the existing parcels in the area (south and north and east) have
already developed with similar densities and allowances for alternate products and
designs are encouraged. Staff also finds that the proposed zoning/uses can be
designed and constructed in a manner that will be hannonious with, and
appropriate in appearance with, the existing and intended character of the
surrounding area.
The proposal meets the standards ofMCC 12-13-16 Residential Subdivision Open
Space which states that "common space shall equal or exceed five percent of the
gross land area of the subdivision. This requirement shall apply to all single
family residential subdivisions of five acres or more." The applicant has buffered
the Eight Mile Creek with an open space/drainage lot which exceeds the
requirements for development under five acres.
The existing character of the area will not change as this is one of the final infill
developments in the vicinity. Staff does not find that the proposed zoning/uses
will adversely change the essential character of area. Staff recommends that the
Commission and Council rely on staff's analysis, public testimony received and
any comments submitted from any other agencies or departments regarding
whether this property should be annexed as proposed.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Staff does not anticipate that the proposed residential uses will be hazardous as
long as the conditions outlined in this report are complied with and construction
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
traffic and house construction is conducted in a manner consistent with City
Code.
Access to Locust Grove Road shall be taken through the stub streets as designed
and directed to Inglenook Way, This will create additional traffic, especially
construction traffic during build-out, This change could be considered disturbing
to residents in Inglenook Subdivision as access to Locust Grove Road must be
taken through their neighborhood.
According to ACHD, Inglenook Avenue shall be designated one side "No
Parking" which should not create a problem for visitor parking at this location.
Further, Meridian Fire will require the common drives to be constructed with a
minimum of 24 feet of paved surface. Furthennore, a secondary/emergency
access is shown with a connection through the existing parcels easement across
the Locust Grove fronting property, west of the proposed development.
The common lot listed as Lot 8 Block 1 will require fencing to separate the Eight
Mile Creek from residential uses. The Eight Mile Creek is a steep-banked and
potentially hazardous waterway which should be fenced in such a manner as to be
non-combustible and impede all access to the creek or as required by Nampa
Meridian Irrigation District.
The Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony (oral and
written) when determining whether or not the proposed zoning and subsequent
uses will be disturbing or hazardous to 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
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
The applicant will be responsible for the extension of all utilities necessary to
serve this proposed development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the
Public Works Department.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay park and
highway impact fees.
On July 27,2005, ACHD staff will hold tech review on the subject applications,
ACHD has not submitted a staff report with site specific and standard conditions,
but Meridian City staff should have the report prior to the Planning Commission
meeting of July 21,2005 (Agency Comments and Conditions when received will
be included with this report).
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
On July 1, 2005, ajoint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. Based on the joint
agency/department meeting and other comments received from
agencies/departments, staff 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 requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local
street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents will be fire, police and school
facilities and services. Staff finds there will not be excessive additional
requirements at public cost and that the proposed zoning and subsequent
development will not be detrimental to the community's economic welfare.
I. Will the proposed uses 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;
Staff finds that the proposed annexation and the development of single-family
homes on this site will not involve uses that will create nuisances that would be
detrimental to the general welfare of the surrounding area.
Staff recognizes the fact that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of
this subdivision; however, staff does not believe that the amount generated will be
detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Staff does not anticipate the
proposed annexation and subsequent uses will create excessive traffic, noise,
smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
The applicant is proposing to construct one public street extension into the site
from Inglenook Subdivision which will connect with Locust Grove Road, a minor
collector. ACHD is supportive of the proposed stub street extensions as
previously approved. The landscaping plan will not be required as there are no
arterial roadways on site and ACHD does not require dedication of rights of way,
If is designed and constructed as approved by the ACHD and the City, staff does
not believe that the subdivision will create interference with traffic on the
surrounding public streets. However, city staff would propose a design to allow
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit 0
parking on at least one side of the street and approved by ACHD even if the
design is amended to reduce lots.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
There are some mature trees on this property. Any existing trees larger than 4"
caliper that are removed should be mitigated for, per the Landscape Ordinance.
Fencing the Eight Mile Creek along the eastern boundary of the proposal should
provide wildlife and open areas adequate protection from residential uses. Staff
finds that the proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss or
damage of any natural feature(s) of major importance if developed under these
conditions.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public
testimony that may be presented to determine whether or not the proposed
development may destroy or damage a natural or scenic feature(s) of major
importance of which staff is unaware,
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)?
The R-4 zoning amendment will provide lots that are similar in nature to existing
subdivisions in the near vicinity. Staff finds that all essential services are
available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not
require unreasonable expenditure of public funds. The applicant is proposing to
develop the land in general compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
Staff does not recommend lot sizes that would be invasive to the properties to the
north and south of the subject property but the lot sizes should be similar in nature
and allow additional residential densities and product opportunities for the general
vicinity. Subdivisions of medium density have already been approved for
development to the south and this is a logical expansion of the City limits for an
infill project. In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that
annexation and zoning of this orooertv would be in the best interest of the Citv.
PRELIMINARY PLAT ANALYSIS
Sections 12-3-3 J.2 and 12-3-5 D read as follows: "In determining the acceptance
of a proposed subdivision, the Commission and Council shall consider the
objectives of this title and at least the following:
A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
Staff finds that the proposed application is in substantial compliance with the
adopted Comprehensive Plan. The proposed density of3.28 dwelling units per
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
acre (gross) is in the recommended dwelling units per acre for the comprehensive
designation. Staff supports the proposed layout as a practical solution to address
the constraints of infill development which has design criteria dictated by
previous developments. Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A".
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
Staff finds that public services are available to accommodate the proposed
development. (See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis for more
detail.)
c. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement
program;
Because the developer is installing sewer, water, and utilities for the development
at their cost, staff finds that the subdivision will not require the expenditure of
capital improvement funds.
D. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
Staffrecommends the Commission and Council rely upon comments from the
public service providers (i.e., police, fire, ACHD, etc.) to detennine this finding.
(See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis above, and the Agency
Comments and Conditions at the end ofthis report for more detaiL)
E. The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to
the Commission's attention.
Lot 3 of Block I has the existing home site for the parcel of record. Along with
the parcel of record is the recorded easement for ingress egress to Locust Grove
Road. Currently the parcel is landlocked and no public street frontage was
provided prior to Inglenook Subdivision being recorded. The easement for the
parcel of record will not be required to be vacated, but shall be maintained as
ingress egress for Emergency Access Only. The developer shall provide
appropriate signage as to the designation of the existing driveway easement. No
lots shall directly take frontage or access from Locust Grove Road.
Staff is not aware of any health, safety or environmental problems associated with
the development of this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor
Commission's attention. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public
testimony that may be presented to determine whether or not the proposed
subdivision may cause health, safety or environmental problems of which staff is
unaware.

Zoning Amendment Findings
According to Meridian City Code (MCC) 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to
Zoning Amendments, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and Council are required
"to review the particular facts and circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in
tenns of the following standards and shall find adequate evidence answering the
following questions about the proposed zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by City Council:
"A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
City Council finds the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
designates the subject property as "Low Density Residential." The purpose of this
designation is "to allow for the development of single-family homes at densities
of three dwelling units or less per acre... Density bonuses may also be considered
with the provision of public amenities such as open space, pathways, or land
dedicated for public services." (See Chapter VII, pg. 95.) The applicant has
submitted a letter listing several Comprehensive Plan policies that support the
proposed applications.
The requested R-8 zone is a medium density residential zone. The Comprehensive
Plan allows one "step" (i.e. low to medium) in densities/zoning without requiring
a Comprehensive Plan amendment. The applicant is requesting the one step up in
density because retirement homes are not permitted in low density zoning
districts; the R-8 zone is the first available zone to operate retirement homes. City
Council finds that if the City allows this parcel to step up one residential zoning
district, the requested R-8 zoning will generally conform to this stated purpose
and intent of the low density designation, as allowed by Note #2 on the Future
Land Use Map.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
If the concurrent preliminary plat and conditional use permit applications are
approved, City Council does not believe that the applicant intends to rezone the
property in the future.
C. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
('esidential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
The applicant calls the proposed buildings "assisted living" facilities, which are
undefined in MCC 11-2-2, but listed as a condition use in MCC 11-8-1.
"Retirement Homes", listed as a conditional use in MCC 11-8-1, but undefined in
MCC 11-2-2, have generally been defined by the City as being independent living
areas with residents capable of self-preservation. Housekeeping and family-style
dining services will be provided to the residents of this community, but the
residents will require minimum assistance (see Applicant's letter). City Council
believes that this will be a non-convalescent facility with residents capable of self-
care. Although retirement homes, nursing homes, and assisted living all require
conditional use pennit approval in the requested R-8 zone, based on the
applicant's letter City Council has determined the proposed development to be a
retirement home. Therefore, the concurrent CUP application must be approved for
the development to proceed. The existing single-family home on the proposed Lot
2 is allowed in the requested R-8 zone.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Within the last couple of years, this area has substantially changed. Messina
Village, Tuscany Lakes, Soda Springs and Sutherland Farms Subdivisions have
all begun constructing homes on what was once agricultural land. Further,
Kingsbridge Subdivision was also recently approved for residential development
along Eagle Road in this section. Eagle Road was widened between Overland and
the Ridenbaugh Canal recently, approximately % of a mile to the north. Falcon
Drive has been constructed as a local street abutting the site. Eagle Road adjacent
to this site not been widened in the recent past, but the Eagle RoadNictory Road
intersection is scheduled for improvements in 2006. The majority of the land uses
in the area are still rural with low to medium residential densities. Although the
proposed use is not really similar to any of the other uses in the area, City Council
believes that the proposed zoning for a retirement community seems to be
appropriate for this site and should be compatible with other land uses in the area.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
The applicant will be required to construct, operate and maintain the future
buildings in accordance with City Code. According to the Future Land Use Map,
this area is intended for low density residential uses. City Council finds that the
proposed uses, if designed, constructed and operated in accordance with adopted
city ordinances and the PP and CUP conditions of approval, should be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing and intended
character of the vicinity.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
City Council finds that the proposed units for the elderly should be compatible
with, and compliments the existing single-family residences to the north, south,
east and west. The Commission and Council shall rely on public testimony to
determine whether the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazardous to the
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
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
Sanitary sewer is available in Eagle Road past the southern boundary of this
project. Water is available in Eagle Road for the entire frontage of this property.
The applicant and/or future propeliy owners will be required to pay any
applicable park and highway impact fees as well as construct on-site storm water
drainage facilities.
On July l, 2005, a joint agency and department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key 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.
City Council finds that the subject property can be served adequately by all
essential public facilities and City services.
H. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
The Meridian Fire Department has commented that developments for the elderly
may have the potential for more services than typical single-family residential
developments. As noted in the finding above, all public facilities and services can
be provided to this site. All required site improvements will be funded and
constructed by the applicant/developer. City Council finds that the proposed use
will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community, nor will the
use create the need for any new facilities or services to be paid for by the public.
I. Will the proposed uses 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;
City Council finds that the proposed uses will create additional traffic on the
adjacent roads. Further, the parking and maneuvering of cars and pedestIians may
generate additional noise for surrounding properties. However, City Council does
not believe that the additional traffic and noise should be excessive. City Council
finds that the proposed use will not involve activities or processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons,
property, or general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise,
smoke, fumes, glare or odors, if all conditions included in the report are complied
with.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
City Council finds that any future use of this site will impact the level and flow of
traffic on the surrounding streets. Access to this site is proposed via two
driveways to Falcon Drive, a local street. One driveway will serve the existing
home, and the second driveway will serve the retirement community. No access to
Eagle Road is proposed. The applicant should comply with ACHD policies in
order to preserve the capacity and movement on the adjacent roadways. City
Council finds that the proposed vehicular approaches to Falcon Drive, should not
create interference with traffic on surrounding public streets (Please see ACHD
report for more information).
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
City Council is not aware of any natural or scenic features that may be lost,
damaged or destroyed with the approval of the subject applications.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)"
The legal description submitted with the application, prepared by Fox Land
Surveys, Inc., shows that the property is contiguous to the existing corporate
boundary of the City of Meridian . City Council finds that all essential services are
available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not
require unreasonable expenditure of public funds. The application substantially
complies with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map. The land to
the southwest of the subject property has previously been annexed into the City
and this is a logical expansion oj the City boundary. In accordance with the
findinf!s listed above Citv Council finds that the rezone of this vrovertv would be
in the best interest of the Citv. NOTE: The City Council has included a
requirement Jor a Development Agreement on this site.

PRELIMINARY PLAT SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. Public Streets and Access:
Connectivitv (lmdenook Subdivisions):
The stub street from Inglenook Subdivision shall connect to E. Horse Creek Street
and again north to Inglenook Subdivision on Inglenook A venue. The subdivision
is constrained by previous development in the area and is bound by ACHD
policies of interconnectivity. No direct access to Locust Grove Road is approved
with this subdivision.
2. LandscaDilll!: Staff is generally supportive of the absence of a landscaping design
with the following considerations: Non-combustible fencing should be included
on the eastern border of the Eight Mile Creek, and perimeter fencing shall be
designed according to MCC 12-13 and maintained by the home owners
association. See Site Specific Condition #7 below.
Tree Mitie:ation: There are several large trees on this site that the applicant is
proposing to remove or relocate. Any tree over 4" in caliper that is removed from
the property shall be replaced by installing additional trees, being the equivalent
number of caliper inches of trees that were removed. Required landscaping trees
will not be considered as replacement trees for those trees that are removed (MCC
12-13-13-3). The applicant should coordinate a tree protection/mitigation plan
with Elroy Huff at the Meridian Park Department. See Site Specific Condition #7
below.
4. Ditches Laterals and Canals: Per MCC 12-4-13, all irrigation ditches, laterals or
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit C
canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent
and contiguous to the area being subdivided shall be tiled. Staff is unaware of
the official status of the Eight Mile Creek; it appears to be maintained by Nampa
Meridian Irrigation and is considered a natural feature and does not require tiling.
See Site Specific Condition #8 below
5. Pressure Irrigation: The City of Meridian requires that pressurized irrigation
systems be supplied by a year-round source of water (MCC 12-13-8.3). The
applicant should be required to utilize any existing surface or well water for the
primary source. If a surface or well source is not available, a single-point
connection to the culinary water system shall be required. If a single-point
connection is utilized, the developer will be responsible for the payment of
assessments for the common areas prior to signature on the final plat by the City
Engineer. An underground, pressurized irrigation system should be installed to all
landscape areas per the approved specifications and in accordance with MCC 12-
13-8 and MCC 9-1-28. See Site Specific Condition #9 below.
6. Fencing: The applicant is proposing to construct a minimum of a five foot tall
solid fence around the perimeter of the site. A detailed fencing plan should be
submitted upon application of the final plat (MCC 12-4-10.F.3). If permanent
fencing is not provided, temporary construction fencing to contain debris must be
installed around the perimeter prior to issuance of a building pennit. All fences
should taper down to 3 feet maximum within 20 feet of all right-of-way. All
fencing should be installed in accordance with MCC 12-4-10. Fencing along the
Eight Mile Drain shall be constructed with a non-combustible material.

Required Findings
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-15-11, General Standards Applicable to Zoning Amendments,
both the P&Z Commission and Council are required "to review the particular facts and
circumstances of each proposed zoning amendment in terms of the following standards
and shall find adequate evidence answering the following questions about the proposed
zoning amendment."
The following is the list of standards found in 11-15-11 and analysis by staff:
A. Will the new zoning be harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and, if not, has there been an application for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment;
In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'Medium density' is defined as areas
including single-family homes at densities of three to eight dwelling units per acre
with the allowances of smaller lots for residential purposes. The applicant is
requesting that all the subject site be zoned R-4 (Medium-Low Density
Residential). The R-4 district allows for a maximum of four (4) dwelling units per
acre (MCCll-7-2.B). The proposed residential density for this site is 3.28 gross
dwelling units per acre as calculated by the applicant, or 9 units per 2.74 acres.
Staff finds that the orooosed zonin!! desi!!I1ation R-4 is harmonious with and in
accordance with the 2002 Comorehensive Plan and Future Land Use Man which
desi!!I1ates the land to be Medium Densitv Residential. There is a minimum target
density of three dwelling units per acre in the Comprehensive Plan; the proposed
gross density of The Enclave Subdivision is 3.28 dwelling units per acre which is
slightly lower than surrounding developments but not outside the acceptable
tolerance for infill development. Inglenook 3.35 du/acre - Sageland 3.85 du/acre
-Chesterfield 4.63duJacre.
The following Comprehensive Plan policies support this proposal:
· 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 properties. The City of Meridian plans to provide
municipal services to the lands proposed to be annexed in the following
manner:
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
Sanitary sewer and water service will be extended to the project at
the developer's expense.
The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction oj the
Meridian Rural Fire District. Once annexed the lands will be
under the jurisdiction of the Meridian City Fire Department, who
currently shares resource and personnel with the Meridian Rural
Fire Department. Fire and Emergency Medical Services will be
provided by Meridian City Fire Station #3. The subject lands lie
within 1.5 miles of the recently opened Meridian City Fire Station
#3 and lie within the Meridian Fire Department's five-minute
response zone.
The subject lands currently lie within the jurisdiction of the Ada
County Sheriff's Office. Once annexed the lands will be serviced
by 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.
The subject lands are currently serviced by the Meridian Library
District. This service will not change and the Meridian Library
District should suffer no revenue loss as a result of the subject
annexation.
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
and Zoning Department, Meridian Utility Billing Services, and Sanitary
Services Company.
· Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use
development on adjacent parcels (Chapter VII; Goal IV, Objective C, Action
1 )
All of the properties adjacent to the subject site are designated for medium
density residential uses on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map.
· 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 IV, Objective C, Action
10)
The subject property is designated Medium-Density Residential on the Future
Land Use Map which identifies this area as an appropriate area Jor medium-
density residential development. This proposal meets the Comprehensive
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
Plan definition of medium-density, with a gross density of 3.28 dwelling units
per acre.
· Require street connections between subdivisions at regular intervals to
enhance cOlmectivity and better traffic flow (Chapter VI, Goal II, Objective A,
Action 6)
The street connections provided from inglenook have been connected as
planned (see ACHD report for details). This subdivision is the last infill
development in the near vicinity and will not be required to stub to adjacent
properties as there is no further development expected at the boundaries of
this development.
· Preserve, protect, enhance, and utilize our natural resources in Meridian and
surrounding areas. Preserve and conserve our waterways, wetlands, wildlife
habitat, and other natural resources. (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A)
The Eight Mile Creek waterway is the only distinguishable natural feature at
this location. Staff feels the open fencing and maintenance free of noxious
materials will enhance the surrounding area. Wetlands, and alternate natural
resources are absent from this site and the subject property has designed the
common/open space around preserving the eight mile creek corridor for
wildlife habitat and enhancing the waterways.
· Develop policies and incentives to encourage infiIl and contiguous
development. (Chapter V Goal I Objective A Action 8)
The applicant has requested a slightly lower density relative to the immediate
vicinity and will be developing larger lots with a unique neighborhood
attractiveness. The applicant has continued the plans for development and the
proposal meets the agencies expectations with preservation of the waterway
and connections to existing stub streets.
· Offer a diversity of housing types for a greater range of choice. Encourage
quality housing project for all economic levels in a variety of areas. (Chapter
VII Goal V Objective A)
The anticipated products for the site will be unique single family residences
available to individual buyers who are seeking a medium-large lot closer to
the urban center.
· Support infill of random vacant lots in substantially developed, single-family
areas at densities similar to surrounding development. Increased densities on
random vacant lots should be considered if: Development of uses other than
single-family structures are compatible with surrounding development as it
complies with the current comprehensive plan. (Chapter VII Goal V Objective
A Action 10)
The proposed density, size of lots and unique roadway design will allow for a
less dense proposal with larger lots, not requiring special circumstances.
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
· Apply design and perfonnance standards to infilling development in order to
reduce adverse impacts upon existing adjacent development. (Chapter VII
Goal V Objective A Action 11)
Staff does not forsee negative impact on surrounding development outside of
the construction phase. The site has an existing residence which will remain
and the size. number, and quality of the houses is similar in nature to the
surrounding developments that the proposal should be indistinguishable upon
build out.
Staff finds that the proposed R-4 zoning designation is harmonious with and in
accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Staff does not anticipate that the applicant intends to rezone the subject property
in the future.
c. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be developed in the
fashion that would be allowed under the new zoning -for example, a
residential area turning into a commercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
Staff finds that single-family residential uses are allowed within the requested
zoning district of R-4. Medium-Low Density Residential pennits the
establishment of residential uses and is designed to protect the integrity of
residential development by prohibiting the intrusion of incompatible
nonresidential uses. The accompanying plat demonstrates the land will be
developed with lot sizes, housing types and other dimensional requirements that
conform to the proposed zoning designation.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas which may dictate that
the area should be rezoned. For example, have the streets been widened, new
railroad access been developed or planned or adjacent area being developed
in a fashion similar to the proposed rezone area;
Staff finds that recent residential developments to the south have been approved
for development similar to the proposed subdivision, with single-family
residences. Development in the area has limited the main trunk sewer capacity.
Currently sewer is available in N. Inglenook avenue that stubs into this project
from Inglenook Subdivision. There are currently sewer capacity concerns south of
the freeway; however this development is not sewering out of its service area to
the Ten Mile Trunk. Therefore it does not contribute the capacity concerns.
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
Based on the ACHD Long Range 2030 proposal, Locust Grove Road is
anticipated to eventually be a 3-1ane roadway abutting this site. However, Locust
Grove Road is not currently included within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or
in the currently adopted 20-year Capital Improvements Plan for roadway
improvements.
Local Street ofN. Inglenook Way is an ACHD rights-of-way and provides a stub
connection to the property. ACHD and the City of Meridian will require the
proposed development connect these roadways as proposed. The design for
Inglenook Ave within Enclave Subdivision shall meet the requirements of the
turnarounds as approved by the Meridian Fire Department.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to
be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended
character of the general vicinity and that such use will not change the
essential character of the same area;
Staff finds that the requested zoning and proposed density meets the anticipated
range for a medium density urban project. Based on the Comprehensive Plan,
staff believes that the existing parcels in the area (south and north and east) have
already developed with similar densities and allowances for alternate products and
designs are encouraged. Staff also finds that the proposed zoning/uses can be
designed and constructed in a manner that will be hannonious with, and
appropriate in appearance with, the existing and intended character of the
surrounding area.
The proposal meets the standards ofMCC 12-13-16 Residential Subdivision Open
Space which states that "common space shall equal or exceed five percent of the
gross land area of the subdivision. This requirement shall apply to all single
family residential subdivisions of five acres or more." The applicant has buffered
the Eight Mile Creek with an open space/drainage lot which exceeds the
requirements for development under five acres.
The existing character of the area will not change as this is one of the final infill
developments in the vicinity. Staff does not find that the proposed zoning/uses
will adversely change the essential character of area. Staff recommends that the
Commission and Council rely on staffs analysis, public testimony received and
any comments submitted from any other agencies or departments regarding
whether this property should be annexed as proposed.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Staff does not anticipate that the proposed residential uses will be hazardous as
long as the conditions outlined in this report are complied with and construction
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
traffic and house construction is conducted in a maimer consistent with City
Code.
Access to Locust Grove Road shall be taken through the stub streets as designed
and directed to Inglenook Way. This will create additional traffic, especially
construction traffic during build-out. This change could be considered disturbing
to residents in lnglenook Subdivision as access to Locust Grove Road must be
taken through their neighborhood.
According to ACHD, Inglenook Avenue shall be designated one side "No
Parking" which should not create a problem for visitor parking at this location.
Further, Meridian Fire will require the common drives to be constructed with a
minimum of 24 feet of paved surface. Furthermore, a secondary/emergency
access is shown with a connection through the existing parcels easement across
the Locust Grove fronting property, west of the proposed development.
The common lot listed as Lot 8 Block 1 will require fencing to separate the Eight
Mile Creek from residential uses. The Eight Mile Creek is a steep-banked and
potentially hazardous waterway which should be fenced in such a manner as to be
non-combustible and impede all access to the creek or as required by Nampa
Meridian Irrigation District.
The Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony (oral and
written) when determining whether or not the proposed zoning and subsequent
uses will be disturbing or hazardous to 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
establishment of proposed zoning amendment shall be able to provide
adequately any of such services;
The applicant will be responsible for the extension of all utilities necessary to
serve this proposed development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the
Public Works Department.
The applicant and/or future property owners will be required to pay park and
highway impact fees.
On July 27,2005, ACHD staffwill hold tech review on the subject applications.
ACHD has not submitted a staff report with site specific and standard conditions,
but Meridian City staff should have the report prior to the Planning Commission
meeting of July 21, 2005 (Agency Comments and Conditions when received will
be included with this report).
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit 0
On July 1, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. Based on the joint
agency/department meeting and other comments received from
agencies/departments, staff finds that the public services listed above can be made
available to acconunodate 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 requirements at public cost for public
facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of
the community;
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local
street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents will be fire, police and school
facilities and services. Staff finds there will not be excessive additional
requirements at public cost and that the proposed zoning and subsequent
development will not be detrimental to the community's economic welfare.
I. Will the proposed uses 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;
Staff finds that the proposed annexation and the development of single-family
homes on this site will not involve uses that will create nuisances that would be
detrimental to the general welfare of the surrounding area.
Staff recognizes the fact that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of
this subdivision; however, staff does not believe that the amount generated will be
detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Staff does not anticipate the
proposed annexation and subsequent uses will create excessive traffic, noise,
smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
The applicant is proposing to construct one public street extension into the site
from Inglenook Subdivision which will connect with Locust Grove Road, a minor
collector. ACHD is supportive of the proposed stub street extensions as
previously approved. The landscaping plan will not be required as there are no
arterial roadways on site and ACHD does not require dedication of rights of way.
If is designed and constructed as approved by the ACHD and the City, staff does
not believe that the subdivision will create interference with traffic on the
surrounding public streets. However, city staff would propose a design to allow
The Enclave Subdivision

parking on at least one side of the street and approved by ACHD even if the
design is amended to reduce lots.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
There are some mature trees on this property. Any existing trees larger than 4"
caliper that are removed should be mitigated for, per the Landscape Ordinance.
Fencing the Eight Mile Creek along the eastern boundary of the proposal should
provide wildlife and open areas adequate protection from residential uses. Staff
finds that the proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss or
damage of any natural feature(s) of major importance if developed under these
conditions.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public
testimony that may be presented to determine whether or not the proposed
development may destroy or damage a natural or scenic feature(s) of major
importance of which staff is unaware.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)?
The R-4 zoning amendment will provide lots that are similar in nature to existing
subdivisions in the near vicinity. Staff finds that all essential services are
available or will be provided by the developer to the subject property and will not
require umeasonable expenditure of public funds. The applicant is proposing to
develop the land in general compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
Staff does not recommend lot sizes that would be invasive to the properties to the
north and south of the subject property but the lot sizes should be similar in nature
and allow additional residential densities and product opportunities for the general
vicinity. Subdivisions of medium density have already been approved for
development to the south and this is a logical expansion of the City limits for an
infill project. In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that
annexation and zoning of this orooertv would be in the best interest of the Citv.
PRELIMINARY PLAT ANALYSIS
Sections 12-3-3 1.2 and 12-3-5 D read as follows: "In determining the acceptance
of a proposed subdivision, the Commission and Council shall consider the
objectives of this title and at least the following:
A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
Staff finds that the proposed application is in substantial compliance with the
adopted Comprehensive Plan. The proposed density of3.28 dwelling units per
The Enclave Subdivision
Exhibit D
acre (gross) is in the recommended dwelling units per acre for the comprehensive
designation. Staff supports the proposed layout as a practical solution to address
the constraints of infill development which has design criteria dictated by
previous developments. Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A".
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
Staff finds that public services are available to accommodate the proposed
development. (See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis for more
detail. )
C. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement
program;
Because the developer is installing sewer, water, and utilities for the development
at their cost, staff finds that the subdivision will not require the expenditure of
capital improvement funds.
D. The public fmandal capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
Staff recommends the Commission and Council rely upon comments from the
public service providers (i.e., police, fire, ACHD, etc.) to determine this finding.
(See finding "G" under Annexation and Zoning Analysis above, and the Agency
Comments and Conditions at the end of this report for more detail.)
E. The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to
the Commission's attention.
Lot 3 of Block 1 has the existing home site for the parcel of record. Along with
the parcel of record is the recorded easement for ingress egress to Locust Grove
Road. Currently the parcel is landlocked and no public street frontage was
provided prior to Inglenook Subdivision being recorded. The easement for the
parcel of record will not be required to be vacated, but shall be maintained as
ingress egress for Emergency Access Only. The developer shall provide
appropriate signage as to the designation of the existing driveway easement. No
lots shall directly take frontage or access from Locust Grove Road.
Staff is not aware of any health, safety or environmental problems associated with
the development of this subdivision that should be brought to the Council or
Commission's attention. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public
testimony that may be presented to detennine whether or not the proposed
subdivision may cause health, safety or environmental problems of which staff is
unaware.
