Motion Carried: All Yea:
Kingsford: Welcomed Scout Troop #320 to the meeting.
ITEM U: DR. HALLETT: MERIDIAN SCHOOL DISTRICT:
Kingsford: Mr. Dan Mabe is present standing in for Dr. Hallett.
Dan Mabe: Our purpose for being here tonight is to update you on our building program.
The auditorium is about 45%complete on the brick work, it probably will not be ready for
the opening of school, so they are concentrating on the classroom portions of the
building. The gym pad is put in place and compacted but we haven't taken bids for that
yet. The School on Chateau is coming out of the ground, they are doing the footings
and foundations now, that school will go along alot faster. We are obtaining a site
on McMillan Road east of Cloverdale for the second Elementary School, our target date on
that is a January opening and a December completion. I would urge you to help the
school district in a couple ways. One is when you are dealing with people that want
to make develeopments that you realize the impact on the schools and that we have some
input on sitings schools that we make some attempts to reserve desirable school sites.
Giesler: Will the portable's be removed or what will happen with them?
Mabe:
there.
When that building is complete, I do not acticipate that we will need portable's
We may leave a couple in place depending on growth.
Kingsford: Do you anticipate needing as many as we have now?
Mabe: Yes, I think we will.
ITEM #2: JILL COOPER: SLUDGE MANAGEMENT:
My name is Joan Cloonan, Jill Cooper is the person that set up the appointments for all
of this. Would like to hear questions and or comments about sludge management from
the Council. Presented some figures and facts about sludge. (TAPE ON FILE)
Giesler: Do we perceive from the EPA's new requirements that there might be a possibility
of not being able to put this on the farm land?
Cloonan: I haven't seen anything from EPA's proposal. What I would see is that there is
a big interest in ground water and concerns about heavy metals that might accumulate in
the land.

Cloonan: I don't think that it is going to stop I just think there will be more
control.
Kingsford: Thank you for corning.
ITEM #3: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT BY FISCAL FUNDING
FOR APARTMENT COMPLEX ~
Kingsford: At this time I will open the Public Hearing, is there anyone from the public
who would like to offer testimony on this issue.
Gary Lee, 1990 Turnberry Way, Meridian, was sworn by the attorney.
Lee: I am with JUB Engineers, we represent Fiscal Funding Company. They are the owners
of the property for which we are requesting the Conditional Use Permit for. We are
requesting a modification in the density of a portion of this property and also to
seek a Conditional Use for a new owner of the parcel. The density on the parcel
was modified and also the original concept plan was changed to better optimize the
open space. Before we had many more buildings planned for the same seven and a half
acres, two story units. This revised plan is based on two.and a half story complex,
the half story being underground, which provided a much more open space to the
project. We are requesting 120 units, the maximum density is 135. We have met all the
requirements for the City. On site plan itsself we have 12,18 & 24 unit buildings,
all are two and a half story. There will be a mixture of different sizes, anywhere
from one to three bedroom or one to two bath. The square footage will vary from 700 to
1100 sq. ft. per unit. There will be a separate pressurized irrigation system. The Nine
Mile Drain contains a 100 ft. easement which we won't be able to build on, however
we are working with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation to modify that drain, to bury a
pipeline to reconstruct the side slopes on the drain, to landscape it. ACHD has reviewed
these plans and the only requirement they have is along Pine Street we'll be installing
a five foot sidewalk. (Drawings were shown to the Council)
Kingsford: Have you seem the Engineer's comments?
Lee: Yes we have and we have revised the parking.
Tolsma: They were going to put some kind of sodded road around the back side of this
for access.
Lee: What we've done on that is relocated a coupledof our covered stalls to allow
access to that one side of the building. So now we do have the minimum distance required.
Giesler: How does the price range for these units compare to what was in the other
proposal?
Lee: About the same market, maybe a little less.
Kingsford: Anyone else to testify?
Gary Smith, 3917 Kootenai, Boise, was sworn by the attorney.
Smith: The maps presented to us during the Flood Plains Meeting did not include this
particular parcel of land. There have been some flood plains established and as I
MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 19, 1991
PAGE #3
understand it the establishment of the flood plains, the City has to adopt that, I
mean the City has to accept that or not. The primary causes of the flood pl~ins are
culverts under roadways. The culvert that crosses the culvert that carries Nine Mile
Creek causes a back up. Based on what is shown on the southeast side of this development
on Nine Mile Creek, that your going to see some kind of a flood plain through this
project. They do have some restrictions that deal with heigth of floor levels concerning
that flood plain. I don't know how this will affect the project but I wanted you to
be aware of this.
Kingsford: Anyone else to offer testimony? Hearing no response, I will close the
Public Hearing.
Giesler: Regarding the pressurized irrigation, is that just going to be dry lines or
did you have a solution for when this comes on line it will be charged.
Lee: Right, it will be ready to go. I think we are going to go with a well on this
system. One thing I might say about the floor level, these particular buildings the
way they are designed, the actual floor in most cases is above natural ground, and
then we build a five foot high burm to raise the ground up artificially.
The Motion was made by Giesler and seconded by Myers to approve the Findings of Fact and
Conclusions of Law as prepared for the Planning and Zoning for Fiscal Funding for a
Conditional Use.
Roll Call Vote: Yerrington - Yea; Giesler - Yea; Myers - Yea; Tolsma - Yea;

Central Valley Corporate Park.
Motion Carried: All Yea:
Kingsford: Mr. Nahas would you like to update the public on what you have sold out there?

ITEM #7: REQUEST BY GEMTONE, INC. FOR ONE ADDITIONAL ACCESS POINT FROM FAIRVIEW AVENUE
'IO TREASURE VALLEY BUSINESS CENTER.
Rich Allison: We've been trying to find a way to accomodate their access needs which
are principally two access points on Fairview. A large retail center to accomodate
clothing store, farm equipment, tire store, realignment center, convenience store
and gas station all those in one user. The user would use approximately l2 to l5 thousand
square feet of store, it is a multi state user called Intermountain Farmers. As you may
note from the Treasure Valley Business Center Phase I development within blocks one
through five, block one they currently have three access points. What we are asking is
that we may receive one additional access points so that we could relocate these at
the lot lines themselves, which would allow for traffic flow through the entire project.
Being two access points on parcel five one from Hickory, the second which would be on
Fairview and then the others which would align on Fairview.
The Motion was made by Myers and seconded by Tolsma to approve the request by Gemtone
for an additional access point on Fairview Avenue to Treasure Valley Business Center
on the lot lines.

Re: Fairview Avenue Access Points
Treasure Valley Business Center
Meridian, Idaho
Dear Mr. Niemann:
As the enclosed plat indicates, the portion of Treasure Valley
Business Center - Phase I on the south side of East Fairview
Avenue, lying between North Hickory Avenue and North Eagle Road,
presently has three private access points.
The purpose of this letter is to request one additional access
point for that strip of property. In other words, we will increase
the present three allowed access points to four allowed access
points for those five lots fronting on East Fairview Avenue.
It is our anticipation that each of these access points will fall
on the property line common to each pair of lots. That is to say,
there would be an access point at the lot line between lots 1 and
2, at the lot line between lots 2 and 3, at the lot line between
lots 3 and 4 and at the lot line between lots 4 and 5.
If you would ask the Mayor and city Council of the city of Meridian
to approve this request it would be greatly appreciated.
For your information, I do have a prior commitment on Tuesday
evening, February 19, 1991. Mr. Rich Allison, Ada County Real
Estate, will be appearing at the City Council Meeting in behalf of
Treasure Valley Business Center if you wish to ask for further
clarification to this request.
Very truly yours,
EMTONE, INC.jTREASURE VALLEY BUSINESS CENTER
