PROJECT NAME: Tanner Creek Subdivision
POLICE DEPARTMENT SUMMARY OF REPORT:
1. Police Response Time-
The proposed Tanner Creek development application is approximately 1.6 miles from the Meridian Police
Department. The expected response time to this area in an emergency is 2:46 minutes. The average
emergency response time in the City of Meridian is 3:58 minutes. Emergency calls are defined as an
emergency response with lights and sirens and driving as authorized for an emergency vehicle. The
Meridian Police Department response time goal for emergencies is within 3-5 minutes.
Between 06/01/2021 —05/31/2023,the Meridian Police Department responded to 5,176 calls for service
within a mile of the proposed development. Crime count of 665. See attached Level of Service Report.
Between 06/01/2021 —05/31/2023,the Meridian Police Department responded to 88 crashes within a
mile of the proposed development. See attached Level of Service Report.
2. Accessibility—
For any climate controlled multi-family developments,the Meridian Police Department requires
police access into each building's entry point using a multi-technology keypad per UDC 11-4-3-27G.
This will allow police access, if there is an emergency, into the building if someone isn't able to come to
the door to allow police entrance. Otherwise,police would have to breach the door to gain access which
isn't ideal for anyone and delays our response.
Police can work with the applicant on placement of these keypads if needed. Police will have their own
access code(same for each building)to use in an emergency.
3. Resource needs
The Meridian Police Department can service this development if approved. The Meridian Police
Department already serves this geographic area.
4. Other comments—
All townhomes and or multi-family units shall be clearly marked with addresses and unit numbers visible
day or night for emergency response. The applicant shall place a way-finding map at each entrance that
are visible day or night.
All qualified open space provided in the development,to include all amenities,must be in an open area in
order to allow for natural observation opportunities. Pathways and landscaping should not create hiding
spots or blind spots that would promote criminal opportunities.
The Meridian Police Department will support all Community Development Staff recommendations,
Traffic Impact Studies from ITD and or ACHD to improve access,roadways, intersections,pathways and
sidewalks before the project if fully completed.
