National Night Out
Wardle: Item number three is discussion of National Night Out by our Police
Chief Bill Musser. Chief.
Musser: Mr. President, Madam Mayor and members of the Council. What I
wanted to do this evening was give tOU a brief update of upcoming events and
what we have on tab for August 2n during National Night Out. I brought our
volunteer coordinator, Cherie McCandless, over who has been working in
conjunction with our Crime Prevention Specialist, Melissa Delaney, in helping to
put this program together and they're probably much more in the know than I am
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17, 2005
Page 2 of 12
at this point then. So I'm going to turn this over to Cherie and go ahead and let
her brief you on it.
De Weerd: Please state your name and address for the record.
McCandless: I can do that.
Wardle: It's always good to have you back in the Council Chambers Cherie.
McCandless: It's always good to be here. Mr. President. Madam Mayor and
Council members. We have made a lot of arrangements for the National Night
Out this year. It's on August 2nd and so far we have seven parties registered and
we hope to have more before the final kick off. We've organized a big kick off
and I think maybe you've gotten invitations already to Applebee's on August 2nd
between 4:30 and 5:30 the one on Eagle Road. That one will be all local chiefs,
sheriffs, mayors and council members from each jurisdiction and I'm talking
about Ada County, Boise PD and Meridian PD and they have been asked to
attend and Applebee's will provide appetizers and beverages for all that attend.
They also agreed to give out gift certificates to the organizers of annual events in
each community. Target has also agreed to give out gift cards to the individuals
that have said that they would have parties - and Idaho Power will provide two
gift baskets for each jurisdiction. Those three I mentioned. Each party will have
received entrance slips for participants to fill out. These will be returned to the
department and they'll draw names and two recipients from each jurisdiction will
get the baskets. Arrangements are being made to transport you guys to all the
parties.
De Weerd: Not to jail right.
Rountree: So we have a designated driver is that the deal?
McCandless: You'll have a designated driver but you have to behave yourself.
Rountree: That could be dangerous.
McCandless: I'm encouraging the Fire Department to visit each of the parties as
they can and also patrol cars to come and visit them as time - as they are
available. And City Department Heads are also invited to participate in this.
This is going to be a big deal this year. We haven't had one for about four years
and we have been working really hard on it. So I will give the names and
addresses of all the parties to Will or someone over here.
De Weerd: Somebody responsible.
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17, 2005
Page 3 of 12
McCandless: Somebody responsible yes. And we'll get drivers for you so they
will know where to go. So I hope to see you all at all the parties. That's about all
I have to say unless you have questions.
Wardle: Cherie just a quick clarification. Is that Tuesday August 2nd you say?
McCandless: That's correct.
Wardle: Okay.
McCandless: Most of the parties will start around 6:00 or 6:30 and last 8:30,
9:00. Whatever.
De Weerd: Mr. President.
Wardle: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: That's why we don't have a Council Meeting that night.
Wardle: Oh we don't have a Council Meeting that night.
Donnell: Oh we don't?
De Weerd: No and we do have a request from Kuna to have a special meeting
at 3:00. A joint meetjng with their council.
Wardle: Okay.
McCandless: So if we don't have anymore questions I expect you there too Bill.
Nary: I will do the best I can.
De Weerd: Mr. President.
Wardle: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: Cherie, how many subdivisions did you say were participating?
McCandless: We have seven that are registered right now. Actually six because
two different parties in one subdivision. So.
De Weerd: That's great after four years that's a pretty good showing.
McCandless: Yeah we have been getting out the word for about a month and a
half now. So.
Meridian City Pre-Council

De Weerd: That's great.
Wardle: Cherie do you have just a quick list of the subdivisions with you or is
that something you can email me?
McCandless: Shaun I didn't bring them with me, I'm sorry.
Wardle: Are they pretty well spread out throughout the city?
McCandless: There's about two. There's one in Vienna Woods, there's one in
Candlelight. Linda Taharo that had one when we went out four years ago.
They'll be one in her subdivision. Saddle something, yeah. Meridian Greens we
haven't heard from. Well we've been talking to them but I'm not sure about that
Christine. So. We'll do the best we can. We hope to have more by the time we
- by the end of this month.
Rountree: Great, thank you.
McCandless: Thank you.
Wardle: Thank you Cherie. Just like to thank you and the department and all
your volunteers for all the hard work you've done and it sounds like it's going to
be a great event and I look forward to attending and I know that if we can be
there we will.
Item 4.
Update on Park Development Projects with Kiwanis, Meridian
Youth Baseball, Adventure Island Playground, and Police
Athletic League by Doug Strong:
Wardle: Director Doug Strong.
Strong: Thank you Mr. President, Madam Mayor and members of the Council.
In my monthly meeting with the Mayor a couple of weeks ago. We talked about
our partnership agreements for park development projects with Meridian Youth
Baseball the PAL folks at Hero's Park, Kiwanis Park and also Adventure Island
Playground and what it would take to meet our goal to meet a phase one green
up by this fall. So in looking at that I've been with Elroy Huff working with
contractors, engineers and architects and different people to try and get some
hard numbers of where we are and also get an indication from the different
partnerships that we have, where they are financially. Obviously some of them
have slowed because of difficulty with fund raising and we want to get all of these
projects off the ground so we can meet our goal of actually having 75 new
developed acres underway by fall. So I've assembled some numbers and put
together some information of where we are in each of these partnerships. We
will go through that real quickly and then answer questions that you might have.
I'll start with Kiwanis. park and by the way I put these in a priority order on
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17, 2005
Page 5 of 12
purpose so that if we were looking at any potential funding for them that you'd at
least have my priority order of where I think money should be spent and what
order. At Kiwanis Park we've actually gotten quite a lot accomplished and much
of the work has been done by Gordon Harris, which we've talked about before
and I think most of you are aware of. We have underground utilities including
power, water and sewer all in or at least stubbed to where they belong and the
irrigation lake is excavated. The irrigation pump and pump station are installed.
The fence along the canal on the north border is scheduled for installation in the
next couple of weeks. Irrigation line to the lake is installed. Irrigation diversion
box is completed and of course many hours of on site dirt work or grading has
been completed at the site. So even when you drive by and it doesn't look like
there's much that has happened there, there actually has been quite a lot that
has taken place. So we had an engineer from Pinnacle Engineering put together
numbers for what it would take to green up that park to incfude curb, gutter,
sidewalk, parking lot, irrigation in and functional and grass seeding. Of course
irrigation in means the pond liner would have to go in and the pond or the lake
would have to be filled up. From his numbers we come up with a total of a
$287,595 to get to that point of completion. We have a remaining budget in that
line item of $110,734. So it would leave about $176,861 that we would need to
fund to get it to that point. It's important to say at this point with all of these
partnerships we intend to continue to work with the partners to have their
participation be as much as it can be. This is not intended to stop that
partnership involvement in anyway shape or form. This would put us to the point
where hopefully by the time school opens in the fall that maybe we could have a
permanent pathway from the neighborhood to the high school and grass growing
so that kids that walk back and forth from neighborhood to school are walking
through a developed park site at least an initial development rather than a
construction zone with a temporary fence along the zone. Hero's Park we have a
partnership with the Police Activities League.
De Weerd: Mr. President.
Wardle: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: I guess Doug before you move to the next one. Are you putting a bid
out for certain work on that park right now.
Strong: Not at this time.
De Weerd: So the budget you have for that park. When were you going to
spend?
Strong: We are going to continue to spend the money that we have until it's
gone. To get as far along in the project as we can. To get it to where we have a
parking lot, curb, gutter and sidewalk and grass seeded and everything that's the
number the engineer has given us at this point.
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17, 2005
Page 6 of 12
De Weerd: So those are the costs of your staff doing the work then?
Strong: No that would be out to contract with the 287. We would have to bid the
work to be done for those items.
De Weerd: Okay but the 110, what were you doing with that?
Strong: We've put in the pump station and pump. We have been doing work on
our own and with Gordon Harris.
De Weerd: Okay.
Strong: So we've been our own contractors to this point. So obviously when we
do it that way it takes longer and we're out begging for resources often times and
like Gordon borrows equipment and he uses it when he can get it and sometimes
that's a couple weeks from when we'd like to get it and so forth. So it just slows
things down. If we went this route we would bid that amount of work to be done
and then Kiwanis club still wants to build a shelter. We have in our 06 budget
request which we'll be looking at in a couple of weeks, enhancement for a
restroom for that site. So this would be just to get it to this level of completion.
De Weerd: Okay thank you.
Strong: Hero's Park and work at the site to date includes an installation of
underground utilities including diversion boxes and an irrigation line to the future
irrigation lake. Phase one green up would require earthwork to include
excavation of that irrigation lake. A lake liner and installation of underground
utilities and a complete irrigation system and seeding. A gravel parking lot would
also need to be completed before the park could realistically be used for soccer
games. So there's a couple of ways to approach this is that if we got the park
green without the parking lot we have a base bid - to back up a minute - we put
the work that needs to be done at PAL out for bid so that we could get a base bid
and then some add alternates to see how far we could go with the money that we
have. We didn't get any responsive bids, we didn't get any bids at that time. But
we have one contractor that has come back and put some numbers to the bid
document that we put out. And we just received this this morning so. This is
what we are looking at at least from if we were to move ahead and accept that
bid which this is all very preliminary at this point. The base bid plus add
alternates six and seven to install irrigation lake and liner came to $348,000
roughly. We have city funds available for PAL of $169,346. That leaves an
unfunded difference of $178,000. That would be just to get the park green and
grass growing. Does not include any work for a parking lot. So if we look at
those add alternates, add a gravel parking lot it would be another $221,000
roughly. It doesn't include paving of the parking lot but it would put it in a useable
first phase stage. So a total unfunded if we include the parking lot would be
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17,2005
Page 7 of 12
another $400,000. To get it in a phase one completion. Now it's worth
mentioning at this point that some of what's being proposed here was in our
agreement with PAL, some of the work that they had agreed to do that we would
have to make some amendments to our agreement with them for how we would
adjust it if we went ahead and bid this work to be done and use park impact fees
to get it to this level of completion. An example would be that they in the
agreement they agreed to excavate for the lake, the irrigation lake. But you can't
irrigation going without an irrigation lake and they are essentially out of money.
They have money remaining for seeding and irrigation, the installation of the
irrigation pipe that they have gotten donations for. So questions about that one.
De Weerd: Mr. President.
Wardle: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: So, what has PAL - is the $169,347 what they have put in to the
park.
Strong: That's city funds available currently in our budget.
De Weerd: Okay and what money do they have in to this?
Strong: To date they have put about $60,000 in construction documents.
De Weerd: Okay so-they have no money for any improvements at this point?
Strong: That's what we are told. We don't have any access to any budget
documents from them. We are going on what we've been told at meetings. So
they say they are out of money other than money to - they have arranged for
seeding the property and putting in irrigation line.
Rountree: Doug I have a question on the ownership of the land. Is that titled to
the city? Or is that PAL?
Strong: It's titled to the city.
Rountree: It is a city park.
Strong: The next project is Meridian Youth Baseball Softball. At this point if you
drive by Settlers Park you will see no substantial work at that site. We have done
some preliminary irrigation work and piping that's been completed to get
underground where it needs to be for the work when it begins. We currently
have city funds in a line item of $148,430. Meridian Youth Baseball Softball has
$350,000 that they have raised that they could spend at this time. Which brings
a total of money available for the project close to $500,000 to get started. The
cost estimates that we are getting from engineering and other folks working on
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17, 2005
Page 8 of 12
the project. The phase one green up without a parking lot would cost about
$821,000. So if you subtract the nearly $500,000 it would leave $322,970 almost
$323,000 unfunded at this point, if we got to phase one green up without a
parking lot. If we included the parking lot the estimated cost of a gravel parking
lot that's without paving. That's $295,000. With paving you would add another
$100,000 to that cost. For our discussion tonight a gravel parking lot would bring
the total cost of just a phase one green up over a million dollars for the beginning
of that baseball complex. So if we subtract the almost $500,000 it leaves
$617,000 to fund if we did it with a gravel parking lot. So it gives you two options
to at least consider. The last project that we looked at is Adventure Island
Playground and as you know we have come a long way with Adventure Island
Playground and phase one is open and is being used. There's been a lot of
publicity with the playground and this group is actually quite active although
fundraising has slowed down. They are active again and money is coming in.
Our recent Barn Sour event that we had just a couple weekends ago raised
another $600 that will go to Adventure Island Playground. They are selling
concessions at the concessions stand this summer so there is ongoing revenue
projects that they have underway. Our remaining 05 budget has about $45,000
in that account. We've been awarded a Land and Water Grant for the phase two
which would be the zero depth water feature which is a matching grant so we
have another $45,000 when that is complete. Our 06 budget request, so this is a
question mark. It'll be in our 06 enhancements of $150,000 would make an
estimated total available of about $240,000 for the phase two completion. In
talking to people associated with the project. To bring phase two to substantial
completion would cost probably an additional $50,000 over that amount that we
project to be available after our budget period this year. And I say substantial
completion in it there would be some things that they still want to complete with
community participation like the brick sales and some things like that that would
complete a wall and some of the nicer features in the playground but all the
concrete work and landscaping and essentially the established area of the
playground would be in place. So to summarize that if we looked at them again
back in priority order. If we were to go through and look at what it would cost to
get all these projects to a phase one green up or a phase one completion and
again I've looked at both with including parking lots and without parking lots. If
we did all the work without parking lots it would need another $728,000 to get
that done. With parking lots it would be about a million two. Obviously parks are
difficult to use if you don't have at least a gravel parking lot for participants to be
there.
Rountree: Mr. President.
Wardle: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Doug what's the cost for a paved parking lot because I'm not sure we
are going to be in the business of providing parking that isn't paved. Or we we'll
have to provide that opportunity for everybody.
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17,2005
Page 9 of 12
Strong: With the Meridian Youth Baseball parking lot. The paving costs about
another $100,000 of the $295,000 I believe that was back there.
Wardle: Doug just to follow up on Councilman Rountree's comments. If we are
considering these projects. Personally I'd like to consider them with a paved
parking lot. I know in the past we've had some code issues and then we
certainly would have air quality issues and then also the issues of if this is the
city's standard parking lot those in the development community, which we're
requiring to do other parking lots. We might have some questions. So if you
could provide those figures and then total those together. I think it would be
helpful for our discussion.
Strong: Just off the cuff from the figures that I'm seeing it. We could add at least
$200,000 to the cost that we see there which would bring it about a million four, a
million five, somewhere around in there to do everything with parking lot. The
reason I included it with gravel parking lots is in the agreement that have been
through Council and approved by Planning and Zoning in the phase one of these
projects gravel parking lot was identified and was considered acceptable
because of the agreement that we've signed. I agree a paved parking lot makes
a lot more sense than a gravel parking lot because once it started to be used it
would be better to be paved.
Wardle: Doug. You have any creative revenue thoughts at this point? Or other
budgetary sorts of considerations?
Strong: As you can see I've included the current park impact fee fund balance as
of June 30th of this year. We have a million seven in that park impact fee fund
balance. Even if we funded the initial phase green up including paved parking it
would still leave several hundred thousand dollars in that account. That does not
include projected 06 revenue in the park impact fee account. We did better last
year in revenue gathering in park impact fee then what was projected.
Wardle: And then all of these are impact fee eligible?
Strong: Yes they are.
De Weerd: Mr. President.
Wardle: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: I guess if I could recommend that on the 25th when you hear the
parks budget. We can firm up some of these numbers. I guess what - why I
would like to some emphasis is on completing some of these projects that
partners have been fundraising for. Kiwanis the Meridian Youth Baseball group
whose raised $350,000 and Adventure Island who has raised close to a half
Meridian City Pre-Council
May 17,2005
Page 10 of 12
million for this project. Those are organizations and partnerships that have put a
lot of time and effort and resources into this. PAL is not quite there yet. You
know we thought they had more resources then what we are seeing. But these
other groups have been very diligent in their effort in not only fund raising but in
volunteerism in brining about donated labor. If we could bring those back to
Council. So you also see what is being suggested through impact fees for 06.
You can see a clear picture and I don't know Doug. Does that give you enough
time to also consider how we can bid these out so some of these things can be
done this fall when they should be?
Strong: I think it does. I might add the reason for the priority order in some
sense is that when we look at Kiwanis Park it's in an area where there is
developed neighborhood around it and the high school is finished two years ago.
Hero's Park is in a rapidly developing area where people are calling and asking
when the park will be done. So I put it in order where it seemed to have an
impact to the surrounding neighborhoods as well.
Wardle: Doug to follow up on some of the Mayor's comments. I certainly these
groups are all working very hard and while PAL as may not got as quite far as the
rest of the groups. I still think that facility and those activities are very popular
with our citizens. So we should at least take a look at considering them
separately on their merit but together as a budget request.
Strong: I agree.
Rountree: Mr. President.
Wardle: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: You know I think we have a really neat story here in terms of
community partnerships and it would be I think good to get it on paper. You
know what these folks have done in terms of volunteerism. The kinds of turnouts
they have provided, the amount of funds they have raised and the amount of
funds that they have put into the facility. The amount of funds the city has put
into the facility to date. And marry to with what it is that we need to do to
complete them. And I think we really and truly do need to look at getting these
things done as we look at the parks budget this year.
De Weerd: Mr. President.
Wardle: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: We do have that information pulled together from 2001 through 2005
to date and I can get that to you.
Wardle: Thank you very much Doug. Lets move to Item number four.

Item 5.
Bid on Park Land and Pathway Development next to Fire
Station # 4 by Doug Strong:
Strong: Mr. President, Madam Mayor and members of the CounciL I just started
looking at this this week once I was aware that we have a responsive bid on Fire
Station four and there is some impact to the parkland and pathway development
that we've been discussing and partnership with the Fire Department. The
reason I put it up this way is that in the budget enhancement that if you've been
looking at your budget books for 2006 we projected to develop that little bit of
parkland and the pathway it would cost about $26,250 based on a square
footage estimate. As the chief mentioned today in our department directors
meeting, everything is costing more it seemed like very rapidly throughout the
community. I think beginning August cement costs are going to go up six dollars
a yard just has an example. So obviously the bids came in higher than it was
projected even for the building but the low bid with the add all alternate, the add
alternate for the parkland development and that pathway was $33,134. So when
we look at that enhancement right away in a couple weeks we are going to be
almost $7,000 short in what we projected in the enhancement to do that. So we
still certainly want to move ahead and partner with the Fire Department to get
that area developed so it's not just a weed patch. So that's what we know today.
Wardle: Council any questions or direction for-
Rountree: Weill agree with the recommendation Mr. President that we ought to
wrap it up and get it done instead of having a small piece out there being an eye
sore.
Wardle: J agree. Doug how do we do that procedurally? Do we need to make
an amendment to your budget can we do that with a motion?
Strong: Mr. President, Madam Mayor and members of the CounciL I don't have
an answer for that. I'm sure Stacy would.
De Weerd: Yes you would have to authorize an amount and an adjustment can
be recorded so that the amendments to all of the different activities can be added
all at one time.
Wardle: And this is time sensitive. Have we accepted the bid on the Fire Station
yet?
De Weerd: It was last night.
Wardle: Do I have a motion to accept?
Donnell: Mr. President.

Wardle: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I would like to make a motion that we accept the recommendation from
our Parks Director and that we authorize the payment of the difference between
the budgeted amount and the alternate bid to complete the pathway development
for Fire Station four.
Rountree: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to approve the difference between the
alternate bid in the budget. All those in favor. Opposed?
ALL AYES. MOTION CARRIED
Wardle: Thank you very much Doug. Thank brings to the end of our appointed
agenda. Do I hear a motion to adjourn?
Rountree: So moved.
Donnell: Second.
Wardle: It's been moved and seconded to adjourn. All in favor.
ALL AYES. MOTION CARRIED.

Item 9:
Continued Discussion from May 17,2005: Discussion of Black Rock
Subdivision by Brad Watson, Public Works Director:
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you, counsel. Item 9 is a continued discussion regarding Slack
Rock Subdivision. Brad.
Watson: Thank you, Madam Mayor and Council Members. J will try not to cover a lot of
ground that we did three weeks ago. Three weeks ago I believe I was asked to go back
and gather some more information and put together some bullet points of the pros and
cons of the proposed Black Rock Subdivision that's located in our referral area. Those
pros and cons would be in terms of the different scenarios for providing city services, as
well as looking at some land use and transportation considerations. I handed out a hard
copy to you tonight listing those things. There are three options, three realistic options
on how the city could proceed. The one thing I want to point out is that we do have the
singular issue of whether to provide water to this proposed project that has approval
through Ada County or to allow United -- or just simply let United Water extend service
to this subdivision, which has already been approved by the PUC. The bigger picture
issue is whether or not we incorporate this formally into our planning, whether that's
water, sewer, land use, transportation planning into the city. I think what is decided on
the singular issue of providing water and/or sewer to this area really drives that
approximately three square mile area that's bounded by Locust -- is that right? Locust
Grove Road on the west, Columbia on the south, and that quarter mile -- quarter mile
west of Cloverdale on the east, up to a quarter mile south of Amity. The photo that is on
the screen right now shows that area. That area has the different colors and it's colored
according to what the a_ssessor's office has designated it as, whether it's residential,
agricultural, bare land, et cetera. In addition to the pros and cons, there is a third sheet
attached to my handout that talks about the number of lots, the number of acres that are
in these different categories. I did a rather rough analysis of what the estimate in tax
revenue is on that existing area out there and just on the residential plated lots, which
would be around 50,000 dollars per year. The existing median assessed value on the
residential is around 240,000. There are seven to eight recorded subdivisions in this
area. Most of them have rather large acreages. There are a few that are small cluster
type. They account for less than I thought they would. They are really only around 350
acres out of the total 1,860. Only three of those recorded subdivisions are nonfarm,
which means they have additional acreage within that plat that can be developed once
central services are there. Also, on that sheet you will see, again, a rather rough
estimate of what the ultimate property tax revenue would be at the city's current mill
rate, mill levy, which ranges from around 900,000 dollars a year at an assumed density
of one per acre up to 1.8 million per year with a density of two per acre. It appears that
little of this is potentially commercial, so I didn't include any of that in those projections.
Please stop me if you have any questions. I'm just going to kind of keep rambling. If I'm
covering information that is old or you have already heard, just let me know. On the pros
and cons on the three options we went through last time, the first one we talked about
operation of a satellite water system by the city. This would allow the City of Meridian to
maintain a presence in that area and, theoretically, keep United Water in Boise city's
area of impact. There would be minimal capital cost as well with this type of installation.

Conversely, if this one -- if we agree to do it for this one, I think we can be sure
additional proposals would be forthcoming. The user fees that we had in place for the
general city I don't think would be sufficient to cover the cost of a satellite -- operating a
satellite system. Didn't do an analysis, but it seems to be a fairly safe assumption, I
think. There would be additional testing, monitoring, and some duplication of federal
requirements in terms of reporting. I'm not sure that we can implement different rates.
That's probably simply a legal question. We need to review those plans before the
developer constructs those if we are to operate it. There was some discussion about a
well and some water rights and who would own those and how would those be
conveyed ultimately to the city. The second option was extension of both sewer and
water to this development. It allows us to keep this in our planning area. We do,
actually, have sufficient water supply to serve this area. There is -- there would be some
significant off-site costs and there has been no discussion on who would bear those. It
appears that there would be in the order of 300 to 400 thousand dollars of off-site water
line costs to get to the outer boundary of the Slack Rock Subdivision. There are several
development applications between the existing Tuscany development and the northern
boundary of this development that are pending. They have been at Planning and
Zoning, they have not been before you. If those are approved, our sewer capacity on
the Ten Mile trunk is whittled down to around 200 to 300 units, which would really,
probably, only be enough to serve this development ultimately. The third option was to
not provide water at this time, let United Water come over and serve this subdivision
that would develop as a cluster sub with its own on-site wastewater treatment system.
This allows the developer to proceed. The city could retain this portion of the referral
area and potentially include it in the area of impact at a future date. As 1 said three
weeks ago, the timeline}or providing sewer to this area is dependent on a number of
dominoes which begins with the Ten Mile interchange, 1 believe, and the intervening
development between roughly Ten Mile and 1-84 at this site, which is, oh, three to four
miles away. There is some administrative issues, negatives, with this proposal, if we do
sewer in the future with United Water present, we will have billing concerns. There really
is no -- as far as I know, any precedent for taking over a United Water system once they
have been established in a development. And the other con as far as the developer is
concerned is I think this would limit his ability to redevelop anything beyond his initial
cluster subdivision. The other one that I don't have down here as a negative is that there
would, obviously, I think, be additional developments that come in under this scenario if
we did approve it with United Water -- or 1 guess we are not approving anything, but if
we let this go with United Water with the intent to ultimately serving it with sewer, I'm
sure other applications would be right behind this one. As was shown in this -- in the
mapping that's on the screen, there is a significant amount of agricultural land -- even
the stuff that's purple and called it residential by the assessor, is really -- maybe a house
is on there or something. It is largely undeveloped. A very simple and quick look at the
transportation issues. On the plus side Eagle Road will be widened to five lanes all the
way to Victory Road in 2007. This is a mile and a half north of Slack Rock's northern
boundary and the intersection of Eagle and Victory will be signalized that same year. On
the con side, all section line roads within one mile of the project are two lane rural
sections and there are no other significant roadway projects in ACHD's five-year work
program in this area. Land use -- and the first pro I have there I'm not sure is really true
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 23 of 56
in light of what I just said. A lot of this is not in relatively small parcels. There is a
distribution of -- there are quite a few small parcels, but there are really -- there are quite
a few tracks of larger areas as well that could be redeveloped. And, similarly, the bullet
-- the first bullet point on the con side I'm not sure that that is extremely accurate, but
there are some large tracts. I think the stuff that has been platted so far, the large
acreages, has little potential to develop, but, as I said, it surprised me, there is only
about 350 acres out of nearly 1,800 that meets that. This is no new concept to you,
when we are serving less dense developments; the cost of services per dwelling is
proportionately higher than in what we consider urban density development. Future land
use, right along with that, this will likely develop to lower density. What has developed
out there is -- is lower density. There are some cluster subdivisions that had lots in the
order of an acre, acre and a half. The city would retain the ability to include this in the
tax base upon future annexation, whether or not we have services there. The concern is
that this raises a potential similar to the southwest Boise area regarding annexation of
the existing development. As I said very early on, there is likely little commercial
development in this area. With that, I would be happy to answer any questions. I hope
that's more information than you really wanted. I couldn't think of anything else to throw
at you. So, with that I'll answer questions.
De Weerd: And I guess, Brad, I would have a question as far as the area -- I know this
is kind of a difficult area and certainly one at the very corner. Is -- is bringing services
out here in the best interest? Does it seem like this might be an area best left in the
County? And I apologize, because I wasn't here for your original discussion, but how is
serving that entire area, in addition to this -- this particular item?
Watson: Madam Mayor, this area has been in our sewer master plan for at least ten
years and these trunks have been extended down into the vicinity of this corner. Our
water system master planning is -- is a little more -- we currently have planned down to
the area of impact, but it's a very stepwise master planning system that we use where it
could be extended down simply into our grid -- normal grid system. If this was to be
served by Boise city, ultimately I believe they would have to pump over into the
Cloverdale trunk, at least this western portion, whereas, this would all be served by
gravity by Meridian ultimately.
De Weerd: Council, any questions?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: First of all, Brad, thank you for this. This was exactly what we asked for and
then some, because we did say, you know, put it down in black and white what the pros
and cons are of each one of those and so I labeled these A, B, and C on those options
and, you know, my limited knowledge and experience with water and sewer, other than
I'm glad I have them, is that -- is that I really don't know, but this gives me at least a
base of making a decision that I will feel comfortable with. And having said that, I don't
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 24 of 56
like option C and I think option B, of course, is expensive at this point, but it seems like
in my mind that it's down the road -- it's in the future and so it's just my opinion for
whatever it's worth, I like option A. Now, for the public option A was the operation of a
satellite water system by the City of Meridian. Thank you.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Again, thank you, Brad, for all of the information. I -- since we are really looking
for opinions at this point from the Council, I disagree with Mrs. Donnell's opinion on
option A and I would, actually -- we are really setting policy decision here and I think it's
an important policy decision. At this current time I think we are in a situation where we
have got -- we have got a property owner that already -- that is -- that has gone out and
sought service from a utility and we have opposed that and had a ruling against what
we thought was best practice and so I think we need to deal with that, but I don't
necessarily want to -- want to remove this area from our referral area, because at some
point when we have some increased capacity for the service -- for sewer service, I think
it might make sense for a future council to decide whether they'd like to annex that
property, so -- in that case, I would prefer option C, which would be to allow --
essentially, to allow this parcel to be serviced by United Water, which was the Public
Utility's ruling.
De Weerd: Thank you. Any other comments from Council? Okay. Brad, have you
talked to United Water on option C and about turning over service or how that
relationship might work?-
Watson: Madam Mayor, no, I have not asked them that question. I guess I should ask
them the question. I already know the answer, but I can if you wish. What they do in
Boise city is -- is this system where they operate the water utility and Boise city operates
the sewer utility, so I'm sure they wouldn't have any problem with that.
De Weerd: I have asked the question. Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Brad, on that point, one of the cons against that is the ability to administer a
turn off and not paying sewer fees. How does Boise work that with United Water? Do
they have some kind of an agreement?
Watson: Madam Mayor and Councilmember Rountree, Council Members, they publish
the names in the Statesman for delinquent accounts. They are not turn off by United
Water. In fact, if I may add a point of interest, the University of Idaho's student --
engineering students devised a mechanism to go in the sewer line to turn people's
sewer off. I'm not sure that that met with great success, but I haven't heard it being used
a whole lot.
De Weerd: That would get instant attention.
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 25 of 56
Watson: It was in the paper one day.
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Nary.
Nary: Yeah. And, actually, the city of Boise patented that product and they do use it.
Watson: Oh, do they?
Nary: They use it fairly often in shutting off sewers. But that's just sewers, not water.
United Water does the water.
De Weerd: There you go. A whole new pleasurable experience. Dan, did you have
anything you wanted to comment on?
Wood: Mayor and the Council, I appreciate, you know, all of Brad's work. I got to take a
look at this a little earlier. You know, of course, my option would be B. But I understand
-- you know, I was glad to see at least option B there. I did like the little part there, one
of -- well, I guess one of the positive sides of one of the cons there is he said there was
a little sewer capacity. So, you know, because what I was hoping maybe if at all
possible, that with the 44 lots, we'd love to be able to service it off of city sewer and that
way for just the 44 lots. You know, looking at the plans here, you know, we are -- ACHD
is planning on widening Eagle Road in 2007. Hopefully, that is going to be coming
along. You know, the question -- I guess part of the -- you know, it's just a rough guess,
I'm sure, or an idea what the cost would be to bring water, you know, from the City of
Meridian, we didn't project that it would be that much, but, you know, again, that would
be something that we could be definitely entertaining if it was something that we could
work out with you guys. You know, it's going to be a nice area. I mean part of the
contour of this ground, you know, with what Brad was saying to the west really -- that's
probably the ground that would be easiest to sewer back to Boise, just because there is
a big bench across there and it's probably 50, 75 feet higher than Eagle Road. So,
hopefully, the sewer, it would be -- shoot it all the way back. You know, I was a little
surprised, I thought the long-term planning for this area was closer to three units an
acre, but with calculations here one to two, I could see that potentially it would be
something totally different than what Meridian has elsewhere, meaning the density
would be a lot lower, a lot of large lots and what we are finding, there is a lot of people
that want large lots that's not necessarily good for the city taxwise. But it sure seems
like a lot of people would like to see larger lots, so --
De Weerd: Any questions of Mr. Wood?
Bird: I have none. Thank you.
Wood: Thanks.
Meridian City Council
June 7,2005
Page 26 of 56
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Council, do you need any further information from staff?
I know they would like direction on what way to go on this. And I'm sure the folks in the
audience would Jove to go home tonight at some point.
Rountree: But not Frank.
De Weerd: Frank always hangs in until the very last minute. We love you, Frank.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I'm going to ask the same question J asked on May 17th. What's your
recommendation, Bradley?
Watson: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Bird, I'm really not trying to be obstinate about
this, I guess. I can provide recommendations as far as water and sewer, but this really
feels like a land policy decision that I'm not sure I'm comfortable recommending. What
would be the most logical for the city would, obviously, be option B if we could do it. We
can do the water. We can extend the water. There is a cost associated with it. There is
little sewer capacity out there to serve anything other than this property. Option A is not
real palatable, because we will, obviously, need more staff to operate not only this
satellite system, but others that are sure to follow. I'm not sure that's real cost effective.
Option C in the very short term that sounds great, in the long term I'm concerned about
that -- that marriage between utilities. It does -- it has worked. You know, it depends on
who you talk to in Boise city whether it's successful or not. The perfect world would be
what we would do. But there is going to be another project right behind this one where
we are having the same discussion and I can't provide sewer to it.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I'm with you, Brad, on option B, because, you know, you can get water out there. I
have a problem with the sewer. That is a natural flow to us. If the developer would agree
to put his sewer system in -- his little satellite sewer system to our specifications, I would
be -- I would be more favorable, put it that way, as long as he met our specifications, so
that when we do sewer out there, all you have to do is just hook in. But being a
developer and we have no control over that, I mean if it -- if it don't pencil out for him,
he's not going to do it, and we are going to get maybe a substandard sewer system to
hook into, or we will have to go back in there and redo it all. That's my one concern and
I am definitely not for letting United Water in any of our area of impact.
Watson: Madam Mayor, if -- I hate to prolong this, but if you'd like us to get together
with Mr. Wood and investigate some sort of arrangement about sewer and how that
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 27 of 56
plan review wouJd occur and maybe some cost arrangements on extension of water
line, J'm more than willing to do that. I know he's got a sense urgency to get this
developed, but we have got time. He may not have time, but I am more than willing to
meet with him and talk about some of those things if you would like us to.
De Weerd: Well, we meet again in two weeks. Would that give you some time to come
back and update Council?
Watson: Madam Mayor, we will be -- J will be out of town with some of you next week
and I have a week of vacation scheduled after that.
Donnell: Oh, you can't go on vacation. Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: Vacation?
Watson: Finally.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: And, Frank, please don't publish this, but I think it's time for the Council to get
off the pot.
Bird: I agree with you.
Donnell: I think we need to make a decision one way or the other and not bring staff
back again for -- to have them wrestle through these same issues. So, having said
that --
De Weerd: You could have cut bait.
Donnell: J liked the sewer comment better. Don't you report that. So, having said that, I
would make a motion that we instruct staff to go forward with option 8, which is the
extension of sanitary sewer and domestic water to Black Rock and I guess we will find
some way to pay for it.
De Weerd: We have a motion on the floor to approve Item B. Do I have a second?
Okay. That motion would die for lack of a second. Or fails. It doesn't go anywhere.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 28 of 56
Rountree: I'll make a motion, but I need an answer from Mr. Wood, if you don't mind.
What's the criticality of a decision timing wise? I know you wanted it a couple of months
ago, but --
Wood: The sooner the better, but, obviously, I want to -- I want to see it be a Meridian
subdivision.
Rountree: You're already selling lots.
Wood: No. We --
Rountree: Close.
Wood: We are giving information, but we are not doing anything more than that. Too
much of a nightmare.
Rountree: And are you willing to explore public-private partnerships on both these kinds
of systems that we need in terms of you're willing to commit some of your resources to
make it happen?
Wood: Definitely. We would be more than happy to do that.
Rountree: Okay. And I'm not going to commit you to an amount, but you're already
committed, so -- Madam Mayor, I'm going to move that along the lines of what the
Public Works director has just indicated, that the city direct staff to work with the
applicant to explore a public-private partnership that would address either the extension
of or development of a domestic water supply for this potential future subdivision and
that they further work through the design specifications for an internal to the subdivision
sewage treatment facility that could ultimately be gravity fed into the ultimate extension
of sewer -- Meridian sewer trunk lines and not committing to a date certain of when that
hook-up might take place.
Bird: Before I second that, have you got a time limit to come back for Mr. Woods? A
time limit, give it a month?
Rountree: I have no time limit in that it's a matter of coordinating between the staff and
Mr. Woods as far as the development goes.
De Weerd: Okay. We have a motion on the floor. Please don't ask me to repeat it.
Bird: Before I second that, I want to know what he said. I'll second it.
De Weerd: Okay. So, we have a motion and a second to approve item A with the
stipulation of the public-private partnership and the details would come back to Council
at a later date.
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 29 of 56
Wardle: Item A or Item B?
Bird: Item B.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, I guess a point of clarification. It would be item option B. I
would add to that motion if there is no ability to reach consensus or agreement, that the
city final ultimate solution would be Item C -- option C., Upon not reaching consensus.
De Weerd: Okay.
Rountree: To deal with this issue and get something done.
Donnell: Madam Mayor, before we take a vote, Councilman Rountree, if you hadn't of
added that last part on there I would have supported your notion, but at this point in
going to option C, I can't support that, so just to let you know. I liked it to begin with.
Rountree: You can make an amended motion.
Donnell: I wouldn't even dare try.
De Weerd: Any further discussion? And I guess I would -- oh, not comment. Mr. Berg,
will you, please, call roll?
Roll-Call: Bird, nay; Rountree, yea; Wardle, nay; Donnell, nay.
MOTION FAilS: ONE AYE. THREE NAYS.
De Weerd: Okay. It's an interesting evening. Do I have another attempt?
Donnell: Mr. Rountree, don't you want to make that motion again?
Rountree: For discussion, I don't mind making the motion again, minus the alternative,
but it seems to me that if we don't reach consensus, we need to have a solution. So,
where do we go?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: And, Councilman Rountree, I would agree, I think that we have to have some
kind of -- somewhere to go, but I think, then, we cross that -- we cross the bridge then.
And at this point right now at least we can get them going and begin to have some kind
of resolution to this and if that doesn't happen, then, it comes back to us and at that
point, then, we look at our options again.
Meridian City Council
June 7, 2005
Page 30 of 56
De Weerd: So, the added on, instead of item C, would be that it would come back to
Council for further discussion.
Bird: The motion was -- his original motion -- excuse me. His original motion covered
that, basically, if they had an impasse it would come back to -- it would come back to us
automatically.
Donnell: Right.
De Weerd: Okay.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, I will amend my original motion by striking the reference to if
no consensus is reached that it would move forward with option C, that if no consensus
is reached that it comes back before the Council and that would be on the July 12th
regularly scheduled meeting.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. I don't need you to amend it, but just in the motion, since the other
one failed, so -- okay. The motion is to do what Councilmember Rountree said the first
time, but without the condition, and to come back on July 12th if it doesn't -- if all the
details can't be worked out. Correct.
Donnell: Yes.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Berg, will you call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, nay; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE NAY.
Berg: Madam Mayor, if I just could ask -- do you want me to tentatively put that on the
agenda for the 12th or would you like a report back from Brad saying it's worked out or
-- I don't want to --
De Weerd: Let's have a report on the 12th.
Berg: Okay. I just don't want it to fall through and you don't know what's going on.
Thank you.

Roll call.
-L Shaun Wardle ~Christine Donnell
-L Charlie Rountree -6-Keith Bird
~ Mayor Tammy de Weerd
De Weerd: Okay. I will go ahead and call the regular meeting for City Council to order.
It is Tuesday, July 12th. If I could see the clock, I could tell you what time it was. Ten
after 7:00. And welcome. We will start with roll call attendance. Mr. Berg.
Item 2:
Pledge of Allegiance:
De Weerd: Thank you. And I would like to take a moment and just congratulate
Council and staff and our community for the recognition that Meridian just received from
CNN Money Magazine of being listed as a finalist in the top 100 communities or best
places to live in 2005. We listed number 74 and I think that's quite a significant
recognition. Our community is -- is a complete community. It's not just residences, it's -
- this is very symbolic of what we all are in our schools and our neighborhoods and our
businesses and our community events and so I'd just like to congratulate our community
and our staff and Council for receiving this recognition. Okay. With that said, if you will,
please, all rise and join us in the pledge.
(Pledge of Allegiance recited.)
Item 3:
Community Invocation by Pastor Steve Moore, with Cherry Lane
Christian Church:
De Weerd: Thank you. Item No.3 is our community invocation. Tonight we will be led
by Pastor Steve Moore with the Cherry Lane Christian Church. If you will, please, all
take this moment of silence or join us in the community invocation.
Moore: Our Father God in heaven, we thank you for the fact that we do live in such a
great place, that we have received this national recognition, and we are rejoicing in that
today and we already really knew it, how much you have blessed our lives for the kind
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 2 of 68
of city and community that we live in, as others are finding out with this publicity. And
we have you to thank most of all for this in your creative order. But we also, God, ask
you to bless our Mayor and our Council and the other public servants that are in this
room, that are in this city, that serve us and make this community in part what it is. We
ask you to bless their lives as they have served faithfully and well, whether they are paid
or unpaid, we just ask you to honor them and bless them for what they give to us and to
our families and to our neighbors, to our children. Father, we pray for tonight's meeting,
that the decisions that are made will be to improve and continue to improve the quality
of life and the standard of this community. We seek to honor you with our very life and
with the law and the order and all that there is in our everyday life. God, I thank you
especially for our police force and our fire department. Your word calls them ministers
and, indeed, they are, putting their lives at risk for us and I pause tonight to give special
gratitude to you for them. Father, we have pledged allegiance to our American flag
tonight and in this month of July when we celebrate our freedom, we thank you for that.
We thank you for where we live and when we live. We thank you for the people that
have given their lives and put their lives on the line for what we do hold dear here in
Meridian, Idaho. And we ask that you would bless and protect our Armed Forces that
are in harm's way even tonight as we meet in this peaceful air-conditioned place, they,
God, are in horrible circumstances. We pray for your protection. We pray for peace in
our world and we dedicate ourselves to do what we can one by one wherever we are at,
to make this a better world, in the name of Jesus, amen.

Item 6:
Department Reports:
A. Fire Department - Ron Anderson
1. Update on Results of Fire Station # 4 Bids with the
Meridian Rural Fire Protection District:
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Berg. Okay. Item 6. Department Reports. We will start
with our fire chief, Chief Anderson.
Anderson: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Council Members. I'd like to report tonight on
the progress of Fire Station Four. As you know, our city has expanded greatly south of
the interstate with a number of residential subdivisions and commercial businesses that
are springing up along Overland and Eagle Road. The fire department has been
challenged with increased response times due to heavy traffic volume on Meridian Road
and Eagle Road to seNice those areas, so the plan that was put in place several years
ago now is starting to -come to fruition and as a result of that a piece of land was
donated several years ago on Eagle Road to build a future fire station. Through a
partnership with the Meridian Rural Fire District, the Meridian Rural District is going to
fund and pay for a fire station down there and, then, jointly staff that station with a joint
effort between the city and the rural to fund the staff. So, last Thursday we held a bid
opening for the fire station, that we received five bids on the station. The lowest bid was
substantially higher than what our architect had estimated the price to be. So, I have
him in the audience tonight, so I'll let him defend himself and you can ask him all the
questions about why that was, but I had to chuckle when I saw the parks and rec
director talking about the architect's estimate of his projects, because I just went through
that last week. But as a result of that, last night we held our meeting with the rural fire
district commissioners. They reviewed their funding and it is a stretch for them, but due
to the commitment that the city has made to hire the additional staffing that will be hired
near the end of this budget year, they decided that they will go ahead and push through
with the building of this fire station. It was also felt that with the construction market the
way that it is, that it would be pointless to try to rebid it and expect lower prices to come
in. So, they are going to go with the low bid in this case and I am pleased announce
that the lowest responsive bid was a local Meridian company, RSCI, which is Record
Steel Construction off East Lanark Lane here in Meridian. So, with that I guess I would
turn it over to Mr. Tom Zabala from ZGA Architects to answer any questions that you
might have on this station or the contract.
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 5 of 68
Zabala: Madam Mayor, Mr. President, Members of the Council, my name is Tom
Zabala with ZGA Architects. My address 565 West Myrtle Street in Boise and we are
the architects for the Meridian Fire Station Number Four, as we have been for all your
stations. I don't look good in tar and feather, but I guess that's part of my job
responsibility. We did, as the chief had indicated, we did receive five responsive bids
from five general contractors in the valley. The bids ranged from 1,117,000 to
1,058,000 dollars. So, there was about a four percent spread on five bids. So, we felt
comfortable not necessarily with the numbers, but comfortable with the fact that they
were all reading the same set of documents. In addition to that, as Doug Strong had
indicated, we -- part of the development of this site was the former well site that the city
of Meridian had and all five bidders responded on that, with the add-ons ranging from
just at 30,000 dollars to the 33,000 dollars that Doug Strong had mentioned earlier. So,
again, we felt pretty good that everybody was reading the same documents. Not that it
is any excuse -- the project is similar to the station we did and bid approximately two
years ago at Locust Grove, Fire Station Number Three. This building is a little bit
different. We did add an additional bedroom to it. We do have a larger site
considerably than what we had at Locust Grove. We are bidding at a time of the year
not unlike what we bid a couple years ago, but I think in a marketplace that is pretty
super heated in terms of the amount of construction that is going on, not only in this
valley, but impacts peripherally from projects like Tamarack and other areas that have
consumed a lot of the sub trades and have not really encouraged sharpening of pencils
at bid time. We have seen that not only on this project, but other projects. In addition to
that, I think if you are in and around the construction industry, you do know what the
world marketplace has been for building materials. Last year we were talking steel.
This year we are talking-cement. They were correct that the price of concrete has gone
up just yesterday four dollars a cubic yard. It is predicted now that the 75 dollar a yard
concrete that we are getting on some projects will go to a hundred dollars a yard at the
first of the year, with the present condition in the marketplace. This project is fairly
dependent on concrete. All of our parking areas are concrete. We have a fair amount
of concrete within the building. And beyond that, all these things add up incrementally.
We did share this with them last night. We did offer the options of re-bidding it now or
waiting, perhaps, until late winter or early spring of next year to put this out. I'm not sure
that the circumstances or the world will change significantly in order to bring it down to
where we had estimated in a range of between 725 and 933 thousand dollars was our
estimate. I think the Meridian fire district took all this into -- as well as the rural fire
department took this all into account last night at their meeting and with a commitment
to the 12 new firefighters coming online, I believe they made a good choice in public
safety in the south part of Meridian. And with that I will be happy to answer any
questions.
De Weerd: Council, do you have any questions? No. We appreciate your work on
behalf of the fire department and the rural fire district and I -- you have always given us
great buildings and so we look forward to number four coming on. We certainly need it.
Zabala: Well, we will do our best and we thank you for your confidence in us.
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 6 of 68
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. We don't need any Council action on this.
Anderson: No, Madam Mayor, that's correct. The rural district is going to move ahead
in the next couple of days with signing a contract with RSCI and we will get moving on
the project.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you so much. Mr. Nary.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, just a follow up to that. I did talk with
Mr. Zabala briefly before the Council meeting and we may be bringing Council action
back with a contract in regards to the park property project that you have approved
previously on the budget amendment for that, but you may be seeing that for Council
action, but that's all you will need on that project. I just wanted you to be aware.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you.
B. City Attorney - Bill Nary
1. Bids for Office Remodel at Farmers & Merchants Old
Branch Building: Bring Back Bids on July 12, 2005
Nary: The other one is -- this is a weekly occurrence now. I can give you an update
again on the Farmers and Merchants Bank and the process. We did finally get a written
bid from Ace Construction. It was about -- just barely under 6,000 dollars for the
necessary remodeling that we would need. If you will recall, the previous bid we had
was 18,000 dollars. So, it's a significant savings. Basically, it is just an enclosure of a
few offices and some painting and some repair work on the wall. Some of the other
things we decided that would be a cost savings to the city and still make it a workable
office space is to purchase some movable partition walls, because we will be moving
support staff desks in different locations and that's a much more practical way to do that
and we can at least take the partition walls along with us at some point in the future
when we move to a permanent facility. My only question tonight -- we did have one
other person express interest. Mr. Morris's construction company was going to give us
a bid. They did come last week. Mr. Morris did a walk through of the building with Mr.
Baird to see what was needed, but he -- when Mr. Baird told him we were reporting to
you tonight, that we had another bid pending, he said he couldn't meet this deadline,
because he had subs that had to come forward to look at the site for what he wanted.
He is proposing a different type of construction for the office enclosures, instead of
simply enclosing the glass wall and steel office cubicles that existed, he is proposing
simply tearing that out and actually just building sheetrock and walls and putting that in.
I don't know that the cost will be significantly different or not, but I don't have a final bid
from him tonight. So, I guess at next meeting in two weeks, if you want me to continue
with that, with Mr. Morris if he's in the process, we can do that. I told them -- or we did
make clear to him that we would be meeting again on the 26th and I'm hoping on the
26th to be able to bring to you a recommendation to go forward and, then, engage into
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 7 of 68
an agreement with one of these contractors in getting this process done. I'm assuming
that this particular bid from Ace Construction has a deadline date, but it did, at least,
give us some idea of what they could do, but I'm assuming it would be about 30 days to
finish. So, if that's all right with you, Council, we will just wait an additional two weeks,
unless you would like me to go forward with the bid that's on the table.
De Weerd: Council, any questions or comments?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: It seems to me that we have waited this long in cramped conditions, that two
more weeks is probably not going to make a difference, so let's -- I recommend that we
see what other bid that we may get.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I don't disagree with that. I would suggest, however, that maybe we
authorize the city attorney to -- is this for your office space or just -- who would
administer this, the Mayor, the Clerk, the City Attorney?
Nary: The city attorney,_ HR, IT department.
Rountree: Authorize the city attorney to move forward with the remodel with a contract
not to exceed 6,000 dollars.
De Weerd: Okay. Was that recommendation a motion? Any comments?
Donnell: Madam Mayor, I would agree with Councilman Rountree.
De Weerd: Okay. Do I have a motion?
Rountree: If you need a motion? I so move, then.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to authorize the city attorney to move forward, not to
exceed 6,000 dollars on the work on Farmers and Merchants Bank. All those in favor
say aye. Those opposed?
Wardle: Nay.
De Weerd: Okay. Two ayes and one nay. Motion approved.

c. Mayor's Report - Appointment - City Engineer:
De Weerd: Okay. Second item -- oh, Mayor's report. I'm sorry. I do have an
appointment to make tonight. Len Grady will be our city attorney. We -- engineer.
We wanted a new city attorney.
Rountree: Sorry for the insult, Len.
De Weerd: City something. I knew you recently got your credentials; it just wasn't that
direction, was it? We just recently congratulated Len on achieving his PEP? PPE?
Yeah. These acronyms and labels just escape me, but we appreciate your diligence in
pursuing that, Len, and it would be my honor to recommend to Council tonight to
appoint Len Grady as our city engineer and I will need a motion to approve that.
Rou ntree: So moved.
Wardle: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to approve Len Grady as city engineer. Mr. Berg.
Roll-Call: Bird, absent; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: TRREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
D. Mayor - Proclamation:
De Weerd: Thank you. Even though we have expected this kind of work from you for I
don't know how long, but we appreciate your new title. Okay. My second item is a
proclamation. The month of July is Parks and Recreation month and I do have a
proclamation to read. And Mr. Strong is here tonight and I will present this to you, Mr.
Strong, after I read it. Whereas Parks and Recreation activities and experiences
provide opportunities for your people to live, grow, and develop into contributing
members of their community and whereas Parks and Recreation creates lifelines and
enrich life experiences for older members of our community and whereas Parks and
Recreation agencies provide outlets for physical activities, socialization, and stress-
reducing experiences, and whereas parks, playgrounds, nature trails, open spaces,
community aquatics and cultural centers, state parks and historical sites, make our state
an attractive and desirable place to live, work, play and visit, which contributes to our
economic vitality and whereas parks, greenways, and open spaces provide a welcome
respite from our fast paced lifestyles by protecting and preserving our national
environment and whereas Parks and Recreation agencies touch the lives of individuals,
families, groups, and entire communities, which positively impacts the social, economic,
health, and environmental quality of our state and our city. Now, therefore, I, Tammy de
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 9 of 68
Weerd, Mayor of the City of Meridian, proclaim July 2005 as Park and Recreation month
and encourage all citizens to join me in participating and supporting the many
recreational programs and facilities provided by public and private agencies. Doug,
congratulations and this is your month. Thank you. I guess it was very fitting that we
heard some of the reports that we had from our parks department, see how we can
move those amenities forward for our amenities in our community and their use.
Item 7:
Request for Reconsideration: AZ 05-020 Request for Annexation and
Zoning of 2.3 acres to L-O zone for Ashtvn Park by David Price - SWC of
North Meridian Road and West Ustick Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Item 7 is request for reconsideration on AZ 05-020. Anna, do you
have comment on this or Mr. Nary?
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I guess, first, just -- there is a letter in
your packet from the applicant here, Mr. Price. Mr. Price is in the audience. This
request for annexation was turned down a couple of weeks ago. Mr. Price has
requested reconsideration. It is totally in the discretion of the Council and the moving
parties who were in support of the denial to bring forth this consideration. If you wish to
do that, you can. What I would recommend, if you choose to do that, is simply reset this
matter for a later date. There were public -- members of the public that testified in
opposition. If the Council is of a mind set to allow another public hearing on this matter,
the best way to do that would simply be to reset it and provide new notice to the folks
and public notice, so that people could re-attend and provide comment a second time.
We did speak earlier today, I think if the Council is interested, the Planning and Zoning
director does have a c6mment, at least from her staff's perspective of the request, but,
again, it is in your discretion on whether to grant this or not.
De Weerd: Council, do you want to receive more information on this and hear from the
director?
Rountree: I'd like to hear from the Planning and Zoning director.
De Weerd: Okay. Anna.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I think that the applicant has learned
a lot more about the development review process in the last -- in the intervening couple
weeks and I think there was a lot of confusion at the hearing on the part of what he was
asking for versus what the Planning and Zoning Commission had recommended
approval of. I think he understands now how that process works and he is comfortable
with the Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation as stated in his letter. The
concerns that were expressed by the neighbors that night I think could be dealt with
through conditions of approval, if the Council so chooses. I think the main concern was
developing without some sort of specific development plan. I think those concept plans
that were provided were fairly detailed and if the Council wants to, we could -- we could
certainly make those concept plans work for that piece of land.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 10 of 68
De Weerd: Okay. Council?
Rountree: Madam Mayor, question for Mr. Nary. Would this go back to Planning and
Zoning or it could have the potential of going back to Planning and Zoning, depending
on any changes that might be made if we were to reconsider this?
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, it's within your discretion, you can direct
it back to Planning and Zoning. The only thing that what I'm hearing Mrs. Canning say
is I'm -- at least as presented, what the applicant is now indicating is that he
understands and is more in line with what the recommendations have been from staff
and the Planning and Zoning Commission, so it may not be -- it may not be very
valuable to send it back for them to look at it again to send you back the same
recommendation. But you can certainly do that. You can hear it again and if you feel
there are significant changes, you could also remand it to Planning and Zoning at that
time as well or, again, you can approve it if you wish. The only other thing I neglected
to say -- at the time the question was posed, Mr. Baird was here that night. There is no
legal requirement for you to actually issue an order or anything not to grant an
annexation. In the past we have done it and my recommendation would be that we -- if
your desire is not to grant this, that we at least have an order stating that, that this is a
final action that you have taken, because, otherwise, in the future to basically track
through Ashtyn Park application to determine what the final decision of this Council was,
there wouldn't be any documents or any way for the record to reflect what your decision
was in not forwarding the application forward for annexation. So, if that's your choice,
we would bring an order back in your next meeting in two weeks, just to reflect that fact.
Again, if you want to remand it or if you want to reset it and grant this reconsideration
request, you can set that off at any date in the future and, then, again, re-notice the
hearing.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Nary. Does that answer your question?
Rountree: Certainly.
De Weerd: Any other questions or comments? Okay. What is the desire of Council?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I'd like to make a motion that we reconsider this application and have it noticed
properly and that we bring it back at a future date.
Rountree: Can we get a date certain?
Donnell: And that could be August 9th.
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 11 of 68
De Weerd: Mr. Berg, is that enough time for noticing? Yes. Okay. The motion is to
approve reconsideration and put this on August 9th's agenda. Do I have a second?
Rountree: I will second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to reconsider Item NO.7 as requested. All those in
favor say aye. Those opposed? Okay. All ayes. Motion carries. This will be -- it will
be noticed and reheard on August 9th.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Item 8:
Continued Discussion from June 7, 2005: Discussion of Black Rock
Subdivision by Brad Watson, Public Works Director:
De Weerd: Okay. Item No.8 is a continued discussion from June 7th. Mr. Watson.
Watson: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Council Members. As you will recall, we discussed
this several times over the last few months. At the last meeting this was discussed,
which was in early June. We were directed to meet with the proposed developer to see
if some arrangement could be made regarding the provision of water to the site. Len
Grady met with the developer at least once, several times, maybe, while I was out for
awhile and we did have a meeting I think last week and I think we have reached an
agreement where they will run city water to their site. We determined that we can serve
it. Part of the arrangement is that we would be granted a well site on that property for
future development. There we go. Just to reorient ourselves, this is Amity Road. This
is Eagle. Lake Hazel to the south. And Locust Grove to the west. Their project that is
already approved through Ada County includes these 44 lots up on the ridge. This map
depicts what they are proposing for a wastewater treatment land application system.
The entrance road would come off of Eagle through here up onto the hill. They would
be running water down Eagle Road to approximately mid section and, then, into the site.
The one thing that they would need to install is a pressure reducing valve, which is,
actually, a little more complicated than just saying that. One of the things the city would
do is utilize some pumps that have been salvaged from the well 14 booster pump
station and use those here in their installation. Those aren't being used right now. So,
it would be better to get them used, than to have them seized up in the future, I guess.
Mr. Wood is here, if you would like to question him on any of this. The only other thing
I do want to mention is that we have also had some preliminary discussions regarding
wastewater and there is nothing finalized yet, but I guess we would like concurrence
from the Council to allow us to pursue those options. It involves some off peak
pumping, that they would own and operate and simply discharge into our system. We
have only discussed those for a couple days now, but if Council would allow us to
continue those discussions, we will. That's alii have, unless you have any questions for
me.
De Weerd: Any questions for Brad? Brad, with this agreement have we discussed the
annexation when we are contiguous?
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 12 of 68
Watson: Madam Mayor, Council Members, yes, we discussed that at length last week.
There would be the normal consent to annexation agreement that we have done on
past county developments. We also discussed with Mr. Wood and one of his partners
Dave Turner, the necessity for individual non-build agreements on occupancy
agreements on each and every lot that is platted, so that the improvements are all done
and final before we will release -- before the county will release building permits on each
of these lots. So, Dan had some good ideas about how to notify those home buyers
that they will be future residents of the City of Meridian. But, yes, we have discussed
that at length. That agreement would come back to Council for approval.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Wood, do you have anything to add? Council, do you have any
questions?
Rountree: Madam Mayor, just for the record, I'd like hear from Dan and make sure that
we are hearing the same thing he's thinking and willing to do.
Wood: Sure.
De Weerd: Please state your name and address.
Wood: Okay. Dan Wood. 2025 East Chateau, Meridian, Idaho. The staff has been
great to work with. We have, you know, had a couple of meetings with Len and, you
know, we want to work it out, too. And so we are more than happy to -- we would love
to work sewer out, too, but we also are willing to -- the water issue helps us and the
issue of -- we are concerned, too, with future homeowners with annexation, but we are
almost to the point where we would have at time of closing, you know, attached to the
deed that they are aware that this property will be annexed. And along with the CC&Rs.
Because we don't want to have the problems either, because, inevitably, you know,
somebody is going to say they didn't know and the best way to do that is to have it part
of the documents when they record it, so we have proof that they did know it.
De Weerd: Okay. Now, was this approved as a non-farm?
Wood: Yes.
De Weerd: So, you had set aside open space?
Wood: Yes. I mean a majority of the ground.
De Weerd: And that is -- can be developed in one time frame?
Wood: My understanding of it is -- is potentially when you are contiguous to the city
limits where you could be annexed and taken in by the city, that you could -- they use to
be 15 years. Now, they have taken away that 15 years and it's come to the point
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 13 of 68
whenever you are close to a city entity that would annex, then, you could rezone or re-
plat.
De Weerd: This isn't in the front of the property; right? So, that any redevelopment
would have to travel through there.
Wood: No. This is -- I mean the ground is pretty much all fronted -- I mean this is all
the -- pretty much all the ground is in front of it. I think I'm answering your question.
Here is where all the open space, actually, is all this ground out here.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. We have had that situation and it's very contentious
when the open space comes to develop.
Wood: That's why we did it this way and it works out good.
De Weerd: Well, thank you. Any other questions, Council?
Rountree: No. Thank you.
Wood: Thank you.
De Weerd: And thanks to our staff for working this through and I imagine that we will
have something in front of them to approve, then.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, I think Brad is asking for guidance on continuing the
discussion as it relates -to the pumping of their treatment facility into our facility and if
that needs to be a motion, I move that we allow staff to continue that conversation.
Wardle: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. All those in favor say aye. Okay. All ayes.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
De Weerd: Thank you, Brad. Do you need anything further?
Watson: I don't believe so, Madam Mayor. Thank you.
Item 8A(26):
Discussion of Proposed Mornina Dove Subdivision located
north of Columbia Road and west of South Cloverdale Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Okay. Okay. So, Item 26 was moved as 8A. Okay.
So, Item 26 will be considered right now. It's discussion of the proposed Morning Dove
Subdivision and, Brad, I assume this one is yours as well.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 14 of 68
Watson: Yes, Madam Mayor. Thank you. This is not a totally different area of the
world that we are talking about on this one and you have seen this property before.
Scaled a little bit different on this one. Cloverdale Road is to the east of the frame.
Columbia is along the bottom here, which is the southern most extent of our referral
area. This is what was formerly known as the Bradford and Camile Shaw parcel, j
believe. I'm sorry. This pointer keeps coming in and out. This is, again, a request to be
released from the Meridian area of -- referral area and be allowed to sewer into Boise
city and receive United Water service. Topographically, this is a very steep bench here
where it flows northeasterly. This is a little bit flatter to the southeast -- or southwest.
According to our master plan it looks like this could some day flow northwesterly into our
gravity sewer system, but the part that is down here below this bench is really -- it would
have to be pumped up over the hill to get into Meridian's system. That's the background
information. If you have any other questions I will answer those. The developer
representative from the Land Group is here to answer any questions if you have some
of him, too.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any questions for Brad or the representative?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: Let me just see if I understand what you're saying, Brad, since this is new to
me. And this may have been before the Council before, but perhaps before my time.
So, the request is to release them from the area of -- you called it the area of referral or
referral area, meaning what?
Watson: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Donnell, that may be a misstatement. What--
it's in the area of referral, there is no formal release, but in meetings with Boise city that
have taken place over the last couple years, they are not entertaining sewering anything
that is in this area of referral, unless they get something in writing from me. So, every
one of these that has come to me I have brought in front of Council for direction.
De Weerd: And, Brad, essentially, they are in our referral area, because we do have a
master plan that accommodates it at some point, but this one you were saying is kind of
different.
Watson: Yes, Madam Mayor. Admittedly, I haven't studied this in great detail, but our
sewer master plan extends to a quarter mile, which is, actually, this line here -- a quarter
mile west of Cloverdale Road, all the way down to Columbia. Those master plans, as j
have often said, are conceptual in nature and there are little jigs and jogs up and down
this east line that we have with Boise city, where it makes more sense for some of it to
go to Boise and some of it come back to Meridian. This appears definitely right here to
be one of those pockets that, just looking at the sewer, should be going to Boise city.
And all I'm really saying is that according to our master plan it looks like this would
eventually some day go to our collection system by gravity. The one hitch in all of this is
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 15 of 68
that this appears to be a county subdivision that's already been platted, so getting sewer
through here may be a little troublesome, but--
Canning: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes. Anna.
Canning: If the Council would like, I can give a little more background on what the
referral area is, because I think that some of you might not have been too involved at
that time. on the Comprehensive Plan prior to this it extended in a couple different
areas that -- that were included on the sewer master plan. This is one of those areas.
When the City of Meridian took it to Ada County for adoption as part of their area of city
impact agreement, the county said there is no way you're ever going to grow fast
enough to reach those limits within the next 20 or 30 years and so they trimmed back a
couple of areas and this is one of them and as a concession they put it in something
called a referral area. It's been kind of a big question as to what that means. All it really
means is that Ada County let's us know what's going on in that area, but the city of
Boise has kind of agreed to not extend services there, unless the -- unless they talk to
Brad first and there is a little more history on this particular piece of property. The
Shaws actually owned all of this going out to Cloverdale. It was in one ownership for a
long time. They were able to, through the area of city impact agreement negotiations,
include this portion, because it allows them to go within 300 feet So, they were able to
bump it out and include this as part of -- this is in the Boise area of city impact. So, this
was all developed in Ada County, with Boise city sewer. So, a part of this has been
developed down here and, then, there is just -- there really is this question of this area
that would have to go up the hill. And, then, they -- you see they don't have a full street
access out here. It's an odd flag shaped lot at the top of the hill there. That's just a little
more history on the property in the area.
Donnell: Thank you.
De Weerd: Brad, I guess the question I have is by doing this, it seems to make sense in
the sewer aspect as you stated. What are the water implications?
Watson: Madam Mayor, Council Members, we -- the situation is really not too dissimilar
from the Black Rock situation, other than it's another at least mile south, and I really --
we haven't modeled this, but I really don't think there is any way without more supply in
that area we could serve this with water today. United Water is in that currently
developed subdivision immediately east.
De Weerd: This is just an extension of that subdivision?
Watson: Madam Mayor, I think the applicant would be better suited to answer that. I'm
not sure it's even -- I'm not sure what the continuity between the two projects is.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 16 of 68
De Weerd: Would the representative like to make comment? Please state your name
and address for the record.
Kirkham: My name is Kirby Kirkham. Our office is at 462 East Shore Drive in Eagle.
Madam Mayor and Members of the Council, in regards to this project, our -- the
developer has, actually, not purchased only that, but the two pieces south of the Imqua
Subdivision -- excuse me, the one in Boise. He's purchased those two and it's kind of
his plan to develop it together, one to provide another access to the site --
De Weerd: Can you use the pointer there in front of you and maybe show us?
Kirkham: He recently just purchased these two pieces of property, which are within the
Boise city area of impact, as well as this -- there is, basically, two parcels up here that
he's purchased. So, based upon that and the proximity to the -- we have not done
anything with this, this is an existing subdivision. I'm not sure if it's all under -- all done
yet. I know at least half has been -- the top half has been constructed. It has a stub out
to our -- to our site right here. So, his desire, because there is sewer and water
availability right down below, in accordance with looking at developing this site, it just
makes the most sense for the developer as far as time frame and -- I mean we'd love to
keep this in Meridian, but with the sewer as far out as it is, with no real -- with no real
option of doing any sort of septic system and the sewer available, it is his desire to be
released and use the United Water and Boise sewer, just because of the site
constraints. The other impact is is there is a community church right here that he is in
discussion with, because we are looking at -- this access right now I think is only I think
30 feet and we need 60 feet of right of way to get access through there to Columbia.
The church owns the land right here. The church is right now looking at having to put in
a new septic system in, which they are not able to afford right now and so they are very
interested in us bringing -- kind of an agreement bringing sewer service up there to be
able to serve them as well. So, we have their full support in that, trying to get that, so
they don't have to dig a -- install a full new septic system, is some of the other
negotiations have been going on. Again, this is probably preliminary and we want to --
we heard some of the discussion on the Black Rock and we wanted to present this
before you, so we don't get too far into the design, so we can actually know what we are
looking at and knowing what we can and can't do before we fully proceed.
De Weerd: Brad, I guess I have a question. When we met with the city of Boise and we
looked at their western boundaries and our eastern, we tried to work through all these
sewer issues on who can serve what and tried to establish a more definitive line. This is
starting to kind of take on the story of what happened in our northeast borders and
where we keep chipping away at that area of impact and keep -- because Boise has
sewer out there and we are not out there yet. Where does that stop? Is this one last
cleanup area and all the other portions that are currently reflected in our area of impact
we can sewer and it's the most logical choice or are we going to see this often?
Watson: Madam Mayor, that's a bit of a loaded question, but--
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 17 of 68
De Weerd: Yeah, it was.
Watson: When the city master plans -- and I presume when Boise city master plans, we
are using either -- back in the old days USGS quad maps and now aerial mapping to do
our contours and, again, they are conceptual and we do the best we can, but it's more
of a macro scale. When a developer has a piece of property, they hire a surveyor to get
out there on the ground and shoot inverts and manholes that are existing and do a very
detailed topo on a piece of ground and they find out, yeah, it can go back to Boise or it
should go back to Meridian. I guess I'm saying the level detail, when an individual
landowner and his engineer study a piece of property, I think we could find more of
these little pockets, but I don't think a lot. We, at least down to our area of impact, a
quarter mile south of Amity, I think that is pretty well set and, then, this is another mile
and three quarters. There can't be too many more of these in that mile and three
quarters.
De Weerd: I'll ask Dean to type that out separately, so I can stick it in my drawer and
pull it out for reference. Thank you, Brad. I didn't mean to beat you up on that, but, you
know, I guess we can get our facilities out there within reasonable time frames, it's just
how much do we continue to get chipped away and losing, because of -- this is not a
good way to plan, is who can get there first, and I guess that's my only point. And these
pockets are -- and your explanation is appreciated. This is a different situation I hope.
Okay. Council, I guess staff is looking for some direction on this one.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Ro-untree.
Rountree: I agree with your foray into this. I think that it's not a good way to plan just to
make this a decision that would relate to the change in our referral area and ultimately
our impact area. I would not give up on the idea that this might be the right thing to do,
but I think it requires significant more analysis on the part of staff and I at this point am
not willing to be favorable to relinquish whatever agreement we have with the county as
it relates to this piece of Meridian's ultimate or potentially ultimate city limits.
De Weerd: And so your directions are to --
Rountree: I would say staff will probably be asked to continue to look at this, but I don't
-- have not heard nor seen a reason why we should honor the request.
De Weerd: So, you're requesting further analysis or--
Rountree: I'm not asking staff to do additional analysis. I'm sure the staff is going to
have more conversations with the applicant. I suspect that they will be there. The
direction from this councilman is I'm not interested at this point in time.
De Weerd: Okay. Okay. Any additional comments? Okay.

Watson: Madam Mayor, the only thing I will mention is that JUB Engineers is actively
involved in modifying our sewer master plan. We can have them pay particular
attention to this boundary, so that we identify any of these pockets on that update.
De Weerd: And they are on the ground right now with that study?
Watson: Yes.
De Weerd: Okay. And they could perhaps work with this representative as well?
Watson: Through us. Yes.
Item 9:
FP 05-039 Request for Final Plat approval of 34 residential building lots
and 5 common lots on 9.8 acres in a R-8 zone for Alexandria
Subdivision by Lonnie Johnson - 4205 North Locust Grove R~
De Weerd: Uh-huh. Okay. Thank you. Okay. Item NO.9 is FP 05-039 and I believe
that Brad is making comment on this item.
Watson: Thank you, Madam Mayor. I have never had three in a row before, so -- this is
a final plat application for Alexandria Subdivision. It's located on the west side of Locust
Grove south of McMillan Road. This is a re-subdivision of Lot 11 of Crestwood Estates
Subdivision. The highlights of this were -- of this proposed development, 34 single-
family residences, five common lots, on 9.8 acres in an R-8 zone. This planned
development was approved, including reduced lot sizes, lot frontage, setbacks --
setbacks for a street side -- reduced setbacks for alley rear setbacks and street side
setbacks. The amenities on this planned development are ten percent open space with
two gazebos and the staff is recommending approval. No outstanding issues before
Council. Oh, there are, too. Thank you.
Rountree: New trainee.
Watson: All right. Site-specific condition number 18, the applicant has suggested
revised language that would -- it would revise condition number 18 to state perimeter
fencing six-foot tall solid material is required. There is justification here, if you'd really
like to hear that and I will read that, but, otherwise, I will go on. General requirement
number seven, that the following phrase be added to the end of this condition, quote,
unquote, or other street light approved by the City of Meridian. And those are the only
two requested changes and staff did concur with those.
De Weerd: Thank you, Brad. Council, do you have any questions for Brad? Okay. Do
I have a motion?
Wardle: Madam Mayor?

Item 11:
FP 05-040 Request for Final Plat approval of 55 single-family residential
building lots and 9 common lots on 11.36 acres in a R-8 zone for Sienna
Creek Subdivision No.2 by Sagewood Development, Inc. - north of
Ustick Road and North Under Road:
De Weerd: Thank you. Item 11 is FP 05-040. I will ask for staff comments.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we had to pull this one off the usual
agenda, not just -- not because the staff -- or not because the applicant is in
disagreement with the cbnditions of approval, it was with regard to some confusion as to
what was approved. Shortly before the preliminary plat hearing I noticed that there
were attached units referenced in the staff report, but I had never seen any attached
units and elevations for them and we generally require that of a planned development.
So, I quickly got with the applicant, Mrs. Wanner, and discussed that with her--
Wanner-Sisler. Sorry. And we -- at the Council hearing on the preliminary plat, we
discussed that issue, that we hadn't seen anything for attached. So, this -- this
subdivision was only approved for detached units. We thought we had addressed it at
that time. When the final plat came up, we realized that there was still some confusion
that -- that hadn't gotten resolved at that hearing. What it is is these -- there is two lots
as alley loaded product, as you see in the circle here. Those were designed with a
longer, narrower lot, as typically seen, but the staff report was treating those as the
attached product. It was never the intent of the applicant, although that is the way that
their letter was written, but it -- so staff was just going by the applicant's request -- initial
request. This gets very confusing and I'm sorry, but that's why I had to bring it to you,
because it got very confusing. Basically, what happened is you approved only detached
units, approved this layout, this is the layout they want, but it doesn't meet the
dimensional standards that were approved with the planned development. The alley
loaded lots meet the dimensional standards of the attached units. They don't meet the
dimensional standards of the detached units. We have tried to think of a number of
ways of cleaning this up. Ultimately, it needed to come back to you for clarification. So,
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 21 of 68
we figured that we would just do it with the final plat, seemed the most expedient
manner. So, I believe that when you approved it, you intended to approve detached
product on those alley loaded lots in this configuration and that's exactly what the
applicant is asking is for with this final plat. So, the approved -- the final plat is in
substantial compliance with the approved preliminary plat, it just doesn't match up with
the planned development. So, the applicant is in agreement with all the conditions of
approval, except--
De Weerd: Okay.
Rountree: Clear it up, Shaun.
Wardle: Just one question before we move forward. Mr. City Attorney, do we need to
amend the development agreement to allow this subdivision to become built as is
shown on this plat?
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I guess in all the discussion I don't know
that we have a development agreement on this --
Canning: I don't think so.
Nary: -- parcel and that was part of the development agreement. What I understood
from the preparation we had today is you approved that map, that plat. You just
approved it based on comments that don't match up with the plat, but you approved it
already. So, unless there was a development agreement that specifically said there
was detached homes that were required, I don't think we will have to amend it. And
Mrs. Canning is shaking her head no. So I think we are okay.
Wardle: With that, Madam Mayor, I move that we approve Item No. 11, FP 05-040, as
brought forward.
De Weerd: Do I have a second?
Rountree: I will second that.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to approve Item 11 and staff's recommendations. Mr.
Berg, will you make comment?
Berg: No. I'm waiting for the motion.
De Weerd: Okay. You have no comment.
Berg: No.
De Weerd: Okay. Will you call roll.

Item 15:
MI 05~007 Request to connect to the city water system as the primary
source of irrigation water for Trov Place Subdivision by Pinnacfe
Engineers, Inc. - 1236 East 2 % Street:
De Weerd: Okay. Item 15 is Ml 05-007. Anna. Oh. Brad.
Watson: Thank you, again, Madam Mayor. This is simply a miscellaneous application
to request a waiver of the pressurized irrigation system on Troy Place Subdivision. It's a
very small little parcel with, I think, two lots. There is only one site-specific condition of
approval involving the payment of well development fees in lieu of using surface water
for pressurized irrigation. I don't believe I have a letter from the applicant and I'm not
sure if the applicant is here tonight, but -- oh, the applicant is indicating they are in
agreement with the one site specific condition on this, so unless there are any
questions, I have nothing further.
De Weerd: So--
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: I'm sorry. Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Madam Mayor. Brad, is there any activity with the irrigation district for that
part of two to ultimately look at some kind of a system?
Watson: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Rountree, I would really doubt it. We do hear
of activity and regional plans in some of the places that are growing, but this older part
of town I have not heard anything.
Rountree: I know they are delivering water to parts of it, so I just wondered if they were
thinking about maybe putting it in a line.
Watson: I do not know.
Rountree: You haven't heard? Okay. Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Any other questions for staff? Okay. Do I have a
motion?
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.

Continued Public Hearing from June 28, 2005: AZ 05~022 Request for
Annexation and Zoning of 1.3 acres from RUT to L-O zone for
Touchmark Subdivision by Touchmark of the Treasure Valley - south of
East Franklin Road and east of South Eagle Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Item 16 is a continued Public Hearing from June 28th on
AZ 05-022. I will start with staff comments.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this was a continued Public Hearing,
because they had failed to properly post, so you have not heard discussion on this item.
It is a request to annex the missing link. It's hard to spot the -- there it is. That's the
portion that's being requested for annexation and zoning to L-O to match the rest of the
Touchmark properties that have previously been annexed. So, this was just a hold out
piece. It is 1.3 acres in area. The Planning and Zoning Commission did recommend
approval of this application at their June 2nd hearing. The key issues of discussion
were the existing access to Franklin Road for the home that's currently there. Staff
recommended that that access should eliminated upon development of the property and
the Planning and Zoning Commission changed the conditions of approval to reflect that
concern. To our knowledge there are no outstanding issue before Council. Hopefully,
that was less confusing than the last one.
De Weerd: So, Anna, when that house -- when that's developed, then, access would be
eliminated?
Canning: Yes, ma'am
De Weerd: Okay. Council, do you have any questions on this for staff?
Rountree: I have none.
De Weerd: The applicant -- would you like to make comment? Okay. This is a Public
Hearing. Is there anyone in the audience who would like to make comment on this
application? Okay. And the applicant has indicated that they are in agreement with all
staff recommendations.

05-021 and PP 05-021, with staff comments.
Canning: Just a moment, Mayor. Sorry. Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this
is Redfish project and it is on the east side of Linder Road, south of McMillan Road. It is
surrounded by --
De Weerd: Baldwin Park.
Canning: Baldwin Park. Thank you. All I could come up with was Bellingham. And,
then, the Sawtooth Middle School is directly south of it. It is less than three acres in
area and so similar to last week, we are seeing a request to have this property rezoned
to a light office designation and they have brought forth a preliminary plat with their
application as well. We have got a shift in -- actually, here we have got Linder Road, so
north is now going in this direction. They have proposed a fairly simply layout with five
buildings. The five buildings have a total of about 21,000 square feet of office uses.
The Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended approval of this application.
Meridian City Council

They heard it on June 2nd, 2005. The key issues of discussion at that hearing were
allowing a day care as conditional use and the hours of operation on the property. The
conditions were changed to reflect those discussions. There was no one that spoke in
opposition or commenting. There was a letter sent in that -- from a neighbor on -- in
Lochsa Subdivision commenting on additional traffic in the area. So, to our knowledge,
there are no outstanding issues before City Council.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Questions for staff at this time, Council? Okay. Is the
applicant here?
Hobbs: Chris Hobbs, Pinnacle Engineers, 12552 West Executive.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Hobbs: We are in agreement with staff's comments and the conditions of approval.
The only thing -- I would address any questions you may have and the only other
comment I would make is that changes that were made for the hours of operation and
the day care with the CUP, that was because of a previous application that night at P&Z
where somebody else requested that had a very similar size project and so the
Commission decided we could have the same option and that was all that was.
De Weerd: Okay.
Hobbs: If you have some questions?
De Weerd: Council, any questions?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Do you have any elevations of the proposed buildings?
Hobbs: No, we don't at this time, but there is a requirement that they are to be
somehow close to the surrounding in size and bulk. There is a condition of approval in
there.
De Weerd: Okay. Any further questions, Council? Okay. Thank you. Is there anyone
wishing to provide testimony on this application? Okay.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, just to clarify the record, the other
application that was heard that night was Ashtyn Park, so --
De Weerd: That was my assumption.
Canning: Yeah.

Bellinoham Park Subdivision by Gemstar Development, LLC - north of
Amity Road and east of South Locust Grove Road:
De Weerd: Thank you. Items 17, 18 and 19 are public hearings on AZ 05-007, PP 05-
009, and CUP 05-008. We will open these public hearings with staff comments.
Canning: Madam Mayor, I need to scroll up for a bit. Okay. Thank you for waiting.
This is Bellingham Park. It is located south of Victory Road and east of Locust Grove
Road. That's Locust Grove there. It is a request for annexation and zoning, preliminary
plat and Conditional Use Permit for a planned development. This project is 166 single-
family residents and 22 common lots on 43.18 acres and they have proposed an R-8
zone. The planned development is requested for a reduction in minimum lot size and
that would be from 6,500 square feet to 4,140 square feet minimum and for street
frontage from 65 feet to 31 feet minimum. And also yard setbacks. The initial request
was for a side yard of zero feet and, then, five feet for rear side entry garages.
Amenities are a 2.6 acre park -- 2.67. Sorry. And, then, other open spaces, the 1.21
acres, .77 acres, and .67 acres. The existing home is to be remodeled as a clubhouse
and that's in this area and I had a picture of that existing home, albeit from a distance
later. And multi-use pathways are also proposed and I'd like to let the applicant show
those pathways. The gross residential density is 2.84 dwelling units per acre. There
are a couple other issues. One is that the Ten Mile Creek, as shown here, does have a
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 28 of 68
designated flood plane and that was on the original one I showed you. It comes pretty
much parallel to the creek and, then, goes in at this feature here. There is weir here
where a drainage facility goes across the Ten Mile. I also have pictures of that that I will
get to in a moment. The applicant intends to address that flood plane through a letter of
map revision. They have not completed that yet, but that is addressed in the conditions
of approval and we will get into those details as well. Okay. Here is another picture of
the flood plane. You can see it in the blue. You can see how it backs up on that -- at
that intersection where the weir feature is. This is -- on the property this is the
Ridenbaugh Canal, so that was the other major feature. This where the future park
would be at the entrance of the facility. I believe this is Locust Grove over there. This is
that weir structure with Ten Mile below. There is water in this structure going this way
and, then, Ten Mile is coming this way. This is looking into the site. So, this is actually-
- this would be on the Bellingham Park site and we will see those later in the -- one of
the other pictures. This was that specific condition related to the LOMAR and, basically,
what it says is that if they don't get that changed, then, they need to come back with a
new preliminary plat or they need to not develop in those flood plane areas. The
Planning and Zoning Commission did hold a hearing on June 2nd, 2005, and they have
recommended approval with conditions. The key issues of discussion -- there was
about eight, so I will go through those. The first was connectivity of Bellingham Park to
Messina Meadows, which is the next project, and they connect along their eastern
property line and, then, looking up the open -- open space and pathway systems in
those two projects, as well as the connecting road system. The location of the multi-use
pathway for the Ten Mile Creek and the Ridenbaugh were discussed. The impact of
groundwater on the site, the number of monitoring wells and the consistency of the soil
to maintain building sites with high groundwater and compacted soils was discussed as
well. That comes up in the soils report. The Ten Mile Creek flood plane, as I have
described, the mixed medium and low-density housing products and lot sizes, especially
south of the project. Conversion of the existing home site on the proposed Lot 15,
Block 5, to an amenity, and the addition or relocation of open space lots to facilitate
maintenance and protection of the Ridenbaugh Canal and the Ten Mile Creek
waterways. And, then, also the Commission discussed having no zero lot line products
included within the development. Those that testified in favor were Dave Bailey with
Bailey Engineering, Susan Wildwood, Steve Glasgow and Gem Star Development. No
one spoke in opposition, although there were several people commenting, including
Michael Gray, who lives on South Locust Grove, Jason Wolf, also who lives on South
Locust Grove. Kara Dalton. She is south of the property on Ten Mile Creek. And Kent
Brown with Briggs Engineering, who was testifying on behalf of Messina Meadows, I
believe. The key Commission changes to staff's initial recommendation -- the
Commission asked the applicant to submit the amended and revised preliminary plat to
staff prior to the City Council hearing. Staff received a revised drawing on June 16th.
All references or approvals should be from the final drawing dated June 12th, 2005.
The Commission also asked to add a condition number five to the planned development
regarding no zero lot line properties. With regard to outstanding issues, although staff
was able to develop conditions of approval that would enable staff and the Planning and
Zoning Commission to make the findings for approval, staff wants to be clear that there
are severe -- at least significant constraints on this property. This particular property I
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 29 of 68
think has some of the highest groundwater levels we have seen, coupled with some of
the most poor soils in those areas that we have seen. And the flood plan issue is still a
little bit outstanding, even though staff has come up with conditions of approval related
to that. So, we just want the Council to be aware of these concerns. It does, however,
come forward with a recommendation for approval from the Planning and Zoning
Commission. With that I can let you ask if you have more specific questions on some of
the soils or high groundwater issues. I think Mr. Watson is better equipped to handle
those questions.
De Weerd: Anna, with those concerns, are you requiring or while requiring individual
each lot has some kind of a system -- a pumping system -- and for the life of me I can't
remember what it's called right now. French drain or the sump pumps that--
Canning: I don't believe we are. I can look through the conditions of approval while
Brad --
Watson: Madam Mayor, Council Members, condition number 17 in the preliminary plat
requires that all residential construction that falls into certain soils groups, comply with
the residential code and the site specific number pertaining to drains around concrete
foundations and drainage systems and that sort of thing. So, there is a site-specific
comment in there that refers to the building code.
De Weerd: Okay. As long as people understand that that is what it means. Maybe that
needs to be clarified or a little bit stronger language. I don't know. I know when you
have this kind of situation and, then, you have any poor grading on any of those lots, it's
just a mess and it pits neighbor against neighbor -- it's really an ugly situation. We have
had it happen before. If this is already a concern, it probably needs to be looked as a
requirement in that entire area, but I would ask the developer to make comment on that.
Council, do you have any specific questions for staff at this time? Okay. Would the
applicant like to comment.
Wildwood: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council. For the record, my
name is Susan Wildwood, I'm an attorney with offices in Boise and I'm here on behalf of
Gem Star Properties and I'll leap right into the breech on the Mayor's question. With
regard to those areas that are within the flood plane, Mr. Dave Bailey is here and he can
answer all the technical issues, there has been a lot of work on this project, but in areas
where -- that are within the flood area, the other option is -- and we have actually
suggested this to staff -- that we would proceed also with slab on grade, so it would
avoid the crawl space kinds of issues. So, that is something that will have been
resolved before we come back to you with the final plat. So, we will be looking at the
FEMA letter revision, we will be looking at slab on grade, so that we don't run into the
crawl space issues that have occurred in other areas. I would like to also thank staff.
We have had a significant amount of work, a number of meetings with your staff, Chief
Musser, I haven't exactly talked to Chief Anderson, but we have had a lot of work on this
particular project trying to resolve a lot of issues. We went through a redesign with
regard to the roads, so that we changed the road sections, which is what resulted in the
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 30 of 68
reduction from 37 common lots down to 22. And if I can just go through those very
quickly. It may be a bit easier to see. I mean those blue lines are a little bit tougher, so
we will show you the pretty one here.
De Weerd: Could you put that up on the stand or up by the screen? Yeah.
Rountree: Should be one right there on the podium.
De Weerd: You can either do that or use the microphone and point at it
Wildwood: Actually, that might be a bit better, if you don't mind, Mayor. With regard to
this project -- now, can everybody see? Am lout of the way enough? The large area
that Anna has referred to, we have a park in this area. There will be a gazebo. This is
an open space area that's designed for recreation. We have moved the more formal
recreation, if you will, away from the -- the road, so that we have a basketball court over
in this direction in this park area. We have the existing residences here. We had
planned on remodeling that residence. I just received information today from the
architect that what we are going to have to do is not remodel it, but tear it down and I
have some elevations showing you what that clubhouse will be. So, this will be an
amenity with a parking lot, a pool, a clubhouse, this large park amenity in this direction,
pocket parks in these areas. We have this park area and this park area. This connects
in with Messina park. The pathway comes up along the Ten Mile, it comes in, goes into
Messina park in this area to connect with their pathway system. The pathway, then,
comes on over toward Locust Grove, providing connection to the properties to the west
and, then, goes up again and connects to the north, again, with the Messina parkway. I
worked with Chief Musser, I spent some time talking to staff. Also Tammy Anderson at
the Nampa-Meridian I rrigation District. This facility Anna has mentioned up here on the
Ridenbaugh and Ten Mile is -- they have actually completely revamped that spillway.
les now all-electronic. They were very adamant that we keep all traffic away from both
the Ridenbaugh and the Ten Mile in this area, one, because of the extreme danger in
this spillway, it can blowout in about five seconds and change the water direction,
velocity, et cetera. Plus all of the electronics. Nampa-Meridian actually has a facility
across the road here, so they would not allow any connectivity onto their property in any
event, have wanted to pull all the traffic away. So, I met with Doug Strong of parks, we
looked at the Comprehensive Plan, where could we pull it away and still achieve the
city's desire to have a location for the regional pathway system still connecting into
Messina and accomplish Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District's desire to pull the public
away from that. So, we have all of our common area down away from waterways and
the dangers that they provide. I also have -- on the photo board thaes leaning up
against there, the product for the alley-loaded lots. Those will not be attached housing,
but that gives you a sample of the housing that we expect to see here on the alley-
loaded lots in this particular area. And, again, we connect to the Messina park on the
top and so that it matches right in and provides connectivity clear through both of those
projects from Locust Grove and there are bridges -- you will be seeing some information
from Mr. Brown after you consider this particular case, showing where the bridges
connect north and south. There is a requirement that we have secondary access before
Meridian City Council

developing more than 50 lots. We concur with all the recommendations of staff and Mr.
Bailey, who is here to answer all of those other technical questions that I cannot, will
provide you that additional information on FEMA and any of the engineering questions
that you might have. Without belaboring the point, we certainly concur with staff's
recommendations, the conditions for specific approval, and request that you give us a
favorable nod and with that I would be happy to stand for any questions, Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you, Susan. Council, any questions for the applicant? Do
you have any questions for the engineer?
Rountree: Yes.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Bailey. Thank you, Susan.
Bailey: Madam Mayor, Councilmembers, my name is David Bailey, Bailey Engineering.
My office address is 1500 East Iron Eagle Drive in Eagle, representing Gem Star
Development for the Bellingham project. I can go ahead and answer questions or I can
talk a little bit about what we talked about so far and kind of give you an overview of the
work we have done on the project. So, either way you want to go. I guess I'll just
answer questions, if that's what you'd like me to do.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, if you want to give a information that would helpful.
Bailey: Okay. I guess the -- in one, I feel like I have been a failure throughout this with
your staff and with some folks in explaining what the groundwater problem is here and
what we are going to do about it and have it done and, hopefully, we can get through
that, but we have done extensive groundwater monitoring on the site, have done -- and I
in fact, since the planning and zoning meeting we have actually added five more
piezometers to measure the groundwater level out there and the thing I'm -- have been
earlier in talking about it, is that the flood plane does not equal the high groundwater
and the flood plane is not the cause of the high groundwater, the actual highest
groundwater closest to the surface level is, actually, in the northwest corner of the site
and that's -- and that's part of the reason that we chose not to have any houses in that
area, because we can keep that dry, but we don't want to be filling that area and we
know that's where the highest groundwater level is. The groundwater on the site is
definitely caused by irrigation and although there is a regional groundwater problem and
a lot of the projects we deal with we have perched water table, we have water sitting on
top, and there is not necessarily water underneath that, but there is definitely -- from the
groundwater that we hit here, the groundwater continues down below that we certainly
understand that -- that area. The drainage for this property is -- is the Ten Mile Creek.
The property, unfortunately, drains on the surface from the southeast to the northwest
and so the grading on the site goes to northwest here. So, our highest groundwater
level problems are not near the creek where the flood plane is, but, actually, in the
northwest corner and there was no water outlet from that corner for the surface irrigation
to go through there. And we do have some water in that area that's approximately 1.3
feet is the measured level. When the field is actually being irrigated there is standing
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 32 of 68
water in that northwest corner, but the groundwater measurements we have made when
active irrigation is not going on, is showing us that, actually, within the week that we are
about 1.3 feet below surface level in the northwest corner of the site. As to the flood
plane on this project, we have actually completed all the study and all of the calculations
and hired Paul Coons as our engineer to do the flood plane study on this, completed all
that, and he said, well, okay, as soon as you remove the culverts from the Ten Mile
Drain and do the grading in there, I can submit the letter to FEMA. So, it's not that we
failed to submit the letter, it's that we can't until we actually do the work that's in there
and provide him the information to submit that letter. So, we are ready to do that, but
we are not going to go dig those pipes out of there until we think we can move forward
with the project. So, that's the condition we are in there. We are definitely in agreement
with the staff conditions and I know your staff has put a lot of effort into this in helping
coming up with conditions that the city could feel comfortable with on this end and we
can meet those conditions. They include contours that show the actual high
groundwater levels throughout the site. So, groundwater level contours that are
showing where we are, and it also will show the finished floor elevation of all the houses
to be built on the project. And while that may seem onerous, it's something that we do
quite often for a lot of subdivisions. In fact, the city -- excuse me -- Ada County has
been requiring that on all their subdivisions for quite some time, even when there is not
groundwater, that we provide these plans that your building department keeps and can
make sure that the builder is following those recommendations. We have a
geotechnical engineer involved. Any fill we do on the site will certainly be compacted
and tested and all documented and that will be done during the construction process
and, then, they are requiring an individual compaction test on each lot and, then, that
grading plan will also specify that you're building permit will also specify that all of the
houses must be built us-ing slab on grade construction and not with crawl spaces. The
last item I have on there is that we have met with the Ada County Highway District on
several occasions and in the most recent occasion confirmed with them that they were
comfortable with the roadside swale. which is an approved road section that they have,
so we are not going to have retention ponds or storm drain ponds on the site that could
contain water over a long period of time and there will be roadside swales that are
constructed in accordance with the Ada County Highway District standards and their
staff in our meetings have indicated that we meet all of their requirements to construct
that alternate road section. So, I think we have -- and it is a difficult site. There is
certainly a lot of things to go on here and I think the additional conditions of approval
that are placed on it are appropriate and necessary to make sure that we don't have the
problems that the Mayor was discussing with the neighbors in the future and we have
safely and effective, in a helping manner, build homes on the property. So, given that, I
would be glad to answer any other questions you might have.
De Weerd: Any questions from Council?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 33 of 68
Rountree: You indicated that your resolution of the flood plane issue is installation of
new culverts on Ten Mile; correct?
Bailey: There is, actually, three 36-inch culverts that's in Ten Mile Creek at this point.
Our proposal is to remove all three of those, because they are the ones that are causing
the water to flow outside of the channel during a flood -- a hundred year flood event per
the calculations in any case. So, we will remove all three of those 36-inch culverts and
we will actually place an 84-inch culvert at the road crossing location, that we are
showing going across the Ten Mile Creek here. That is, actually, Nampa-Meridian
Irrigation District's property and we have had discussions with them and we will submit
our application -- all the construction plans to them to remove those culverts and to
place a new one and, of course, there is Army Corps of Engineer permits and EPA
permits that are required to do that and license agreements associated with that. So,
we are working all those actually right now. We have started working on them already.
Rountree: Do you have a willing participant in the form of the irrigation district?
Bailey: With Nampa -- yes. Yes. I actually talked with John Anderson of the irrigation
district way early on about this project and about the Ten Mile Creek and what would be
appropriate to do and these conditions are on here with the flood plane and this issue
actually was in Tuscany to the north of this project and they had the same conditions in
Messina to the southeast of this project. And, actually, Messina Meadows needs us to
pull those three culverts to get rid of this flood plane that's on their project. They have
got the same study -- or an additional portion of that study completed for their project.
They need these culverts removed in order for them to get the LOMAR done on their
project as well. So, they kind of work together.
Rountree: You mentioned that the water table or first water or whatever the situation is
in northwest portion of your project is where -- it's closest to the surface. Has the site
been evaluated for wetlands and does the Corps claim any jurisdiction over any portion
or all of this area?
Bailey: We have walked the site with our geotechnical engineer in that end, we have
dealt with quite a few of the wetlands issues. In fact, we had about I think six
applications before the Corps right now and we don't feel that we have a wetlands issue
that needs to be handled on this site at this point.
Rountree: You talked about the roadside swale typical section on road or roads. Would
that be typical section on all of the collectors in the subdivision or is that primarily going
to be in the main access --
Bailey: All of the streets -- the public streets within the subdivision are proposed to be --
and it's shown on the preliminary plat that we submitted -- a 36-foot edge-to-edge --
actually, it's 32 feet of asphalt and, then, two foot ribbon curb on either side, and eight
foot wide swale, and a detached sidewalk outside of that. So, all of interior streets are
proposed to be built to that standard. We are discussing Ada County Highway District--
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 34 of 68
we have an alternate, instead of the ribbon curb, to do a vertical curb and have specific
points where the water could discharge. So, along the north side of the main entry road
that runs along the south of the western part of the project, doing a vertical curb on the
north side there, because we don't have lots accessing from that north side. And we
are going to do vertical curb for Locust Grove to the first intersection on the entrance
road. But the roadside would be all the rest of the interior roads would be the roadside
swales type construction.
Rountree: And whose jurisdiction would be the swale and -- be ACHD's or the property
owners?
Bailey: Yes. And what we have actually done is the right of way that we are proposing
is 62 feet wide, as opposed to your standard 50 feet wide. We have seen some
applications where they place the sidewalk in an easement outside of the right of way.
Our section includes all of the road, swale, and sidewalk within the right of way section.
So, our setbacks would be measured from the property line and wouldn't have to be
pushed back for the -- for the sidewalk to make sure you got 20 feet in front of the
building.
Rountree: And who takes care of that no man's land?
Bailey: Ada County Highway District and there is a licensed agreement for
maintenance of that swale in front of the house by the individual property owners.
Rountree: Is there a standard identified in the CC&Rs?
Bailey: I'm not familiar with the CC&Rs, but Susan Wildwood says there will be.
Rountree: Thank you.
De Weerd: I guess I just want some clarity. The high groundwater is caused by the
culverts?
Bailey: Madam Mayor, the high groundwater is caused by irrigation. The flood plane,
which is a -- flood plane, as shown on these maps, is a calculated number and I guess
to back up a little bit and maybe answer that a little better, is that the highest
groundwater is in that northwest corner and that's where the irrigation water that
currently irrigates the site and runs off the site to the south of this, collects in that area
and it can't get to the Ten Mile Drain, because it's uphill that way. And so it does pond
in that area. There is no drain to the west across Locust Grove on this property. So,
that the flood plane is a different issue. It's actually a calculated number and, in fact,
this is what is -- what we call an unnumbered -- currently it's an unnumbered A zone
and in the production of the flood plane maps that FEMA does, they do actual detailed
calculations on some areas and on other areas they look at them from an aerial map
and say here is my flood, let's show a flood plane here. And so even if we were not
going to get rid of the flood plane and we had proposed to build in there, we would have
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 35 of 68
to go and do this detailed study just to show how high we would need to build the
houses, because there are no elevations from FEMA associated with unnumbered A
zones. So, we don't even know what that elevation is, all we have is this nondescript
line on a map. So, every time we run into one of these unnumbered A zones in any
project -- and, in fact, again, in Tuscany to the north it was an unnumbered A zone until
Paul Coons did the study and provided that to -- to the developer of Tuscany, showing
that, in fact, the calculated flow for the flood event, the hundred year flood event, really
stays inside the channel. In our case it didn't stay inside the channel. In fact, in their
case they made them pullout a -- I think a 72 inch culvert that was up to the north that
was blocking that they pull. Then, they could show that it would stay in the channel. In
our case, the three 36 inch culverts, once they were removed, the calculation shows
that the flood would stay in the channel and not actually flood into those areas. But
that's talking about a situation of a -- of a one hundred year storm event and the
contributing area of this goes miles south of this project in this channel. And so there is
a calculated volume of water that needs to flow through this area, should there be that
flood event So, it's kind of independent of the high groundwater issue.
De Weerd: And those calculations are taking into account the different changes with
bringing in fill and all of that, up and down whatever changes are being made.
Bailey: Through all the projects. Yeah. And, actually, with this -- with this current site
and the study we have there now, if we just took a trackhoe in there and removed those
three culverts from that area, the calculations show that without any other grading, that
it would maintain the flood within the channel.
De Weerd: I guess I would just have -- do you have specific builders that would be
building in this subdivision?
Bailey: I do not know the answer to that. The developer usually develops lots and
typically sells them to either a builder or a group of builders, but I don't know the names
of them.
De Weerd: Okay. Well, do they have experience building in these kind of situations?
Bailey: Yes.
De Weerd: And do you have design standards and are some of these dealt with -- the
building specifications and requirements go through the CC&Rs? Okay.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
Bailey: I'm sorry I'm not very good at that. I normally do dirt.
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 36 of 68
Wardle: If you could point out to me where we are talking about the slab-on-grade
foundations. Is it within the flood zone or is it over here in this corner?
Bailey: It is the entire project. The entire project we will require all houses to be built
with slab-on-grade construction and we will specify in our plan what that finished floor
elevation has to be to make sure that there is proper drainage away from the houses.
And also show lot drainage pattern. So, we will actually grade all of the lot pads with
the conception of the subdivision. They will be all graded. So, the grader needs to go
in, dig the hole for his foundation, set the top of the slab at the elevation that we give
them for the house and, then, do the find grading on the -- on the project
De Weerd: And who follows up with that? Is that one of our inspectors' responsibility or
is that something monitored through your subdivision?
Watson: Madam Mayor, Councilmembers, it would be something that will be checked
through the building department. There will be a master grading and drainage plan. I
didn't get a chance to really -- and Mr. Bailey did hit some of the highlights of the site-
specific comments -- or condition number 16. It requires this master grading and
drainage plan that will be reviewed by engineering and, then, transferred to the building
department for a follow up. We will not be doing the survey to certify where those are,
but we will be requiring that from the builders or their surveyor.
De Weerd: Okay. Any further questions? Thank you.
Bailey: Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. This is a Public Hearing. Is there anyone in the audience who would
like to provide testimony on this application? Please come forward. Please state your
name and address for the record.
Brown: For the record, Kent Brown, 1800 West Overland, Boise, Idaho. I guess I'll tell
you a fable with regards to flood plane. A good story -- at least it's a story that was told
when I was at Boise city and worked for the city with regards to flood plane. J.R.
Simplot has a small house, or used to, that sits up at Bogus Basin Road area and he
has gullies on either side of him. So, what Mr. Bailey was talking about with the gullies
on either side, those are flood ways. So, someone smart from the map says, well,
those are -- have to overlap, because they are so close and Mr. Simplot's house is in a
flood way. Obviously, we have common sense to know that that's not the case, but
that's kind of how those maps were originally done. And so the flood ways that are
shown on here are just lines that there is -- there is streams here and there is a possible
flood way. Mr. Coons has done a detail study and as soon as those three pipes are
removed, that removes it down into the channel. As she stated, we have dealt with
those same issues when we did Tuscany Lakes. Came into the same guidelines that
we were looking at before. The roadside swales that they are talking about are the
same roadside swales that we are using to the north. The highway district has
standards that they want the CC&Rs to look about for the maintenance of those. We
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 37 of 68
are very grateful for Mr. Mills that's sitting here and what the highway district's done to
come up with this alternative street section. And particularly in this area, some areas in
Star, they are a great asset. We have already got one plat already done, Messina Hills
Two, and I just took -- you know, different times when we've had those early spring rains
and the ponds were all filled up in the development, but those roadside swales were
dry. It's a great method, it just makes a lot of sense. I understand what the highway
district's concerns are is the long-term getting them into shape and they had the
guidelines and they had the set standards to assure that they are going to be taken care
of. And from a development community standpoint, we want them to work and so we
are very supportive that those happen, too. And I'll stand for any questions.
De Weerd: Any questions for Mr. Brown? Okay. Thank you. Further testimony?
Okay. Final comment?
Wildwood: Just would, again, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we really have
appreciated the hard work of the staff and all the folks. This has had a really long hard
look and there has been a lot of head scratching, but we think we have come up with a
project that -- because it can be developed appropriately, offers some real advantages
to the City of Meridian and a lot of wonderful amenities to the folks that we hope to have
building in there and the slab on grade is going to avoid a lot of those problems that, as
Mr. Brown pointed out, the CC&Rs are reviewed by the building department, the slab on
grade and the planning ought to bring this project forward and be something the city can
be proud of and thank you very much for your time.
De Weerd: Can you tell_ me who the builders are in this --
Wildwood: On this particular project I cannot. I know there is a variety of builders that
we will be looking at. I'm not -- I don't have any information that says it's going to be
anyone particular builder. I think there is a group of them, but I'm not sure exactly who
they are. And Mr. Glasgow was not able to be with us tonight, so he could have
probably specified that better than I. So, I'm sorry, I don't have that information.
De Weerd: And I guess I asked it just because of the conditions that we want to assure
-- I would like to be assured that the people that will be building in there know what they
are doing.
Wildwood: Correct. And that's -- by working with the staff and having the level of detail
that we are looking at by requiring the slab on grade, the inspections, the CC&Rs, the
kind of work that Mr. Bailey has done, those kinds of things will go a long way. We are
not going to run into the kind of water in the crawl space that's occurred in some of the
area that have caused problems, not only in Meridian, but also in Boise. By doing all of
these, the compaction on each one of the lots, by having to have the survey for where
the exact locations are of the elevations that Dave was talking about, each one of those
are an extra effort, so that the product itself is really going to be a quality one. We are
not going to have those kinds of problems, simply because of all of the different
elements that have to be in, simply a requirement in the CC&Rs, which, as we all know,
Meridian City Council

can be changed. These are the grading plans, the building permits; all of those go in
place. So, before a certificate of occupancy is issued, each one of those technical
requirements are met. Same thing as the LOMAR on the FEMA with the flood plane.
Each one of those items have to be met before development can occur in any of those
areas, particularly in those two phases.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any questions?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Though not shown or presented to the Council, you have a board up here
with some product. Is that the project that will be delivered on this project or just a
pretty picture?
Wildwood: Well, they are pretty pictures. What these represent are the alley-loaded
homes. They do not show garages at the back. Most people have a question as to
what the alley loads are going to look like, which is why we put this photo board
together. So, this represents alley-loaded properties that are in the area. Some are in
Boise. Some are in some of the other areas. But that's generally the question that we
run into. The CC&Rs will, of course, have that minimum square footage. They will have
the -- shoot, I always forget what it's called. The hard surface that has to be wrapped
on the front, whether it's stone or brick or whatever that sort of thing is specified there.
But this gives you an idea of the alley loads. Because of the different -- different size
that -- and if I can jusfrefer to the drawings again. We put it on this like quadruple
heavy foam board, so if I drop it, I apologize. You will notice that there is a significant
difference in lot sizes. These were negotiated out with the landowners to the west who
have large properties. So, we have got larger properties against them. You have got
the alley loads. So, we have got a significant variety as far as lot sizes and home sizes
in the area. We will see fairly widespread product in just this project alone. And, then,
you have got the differences again in Messina Park and Tuscany to the north.
Rountree: Thank you.
De Weerd: Any further questions? Okay.
Wildwood: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council.
De Weerd: Okay. If there is no further testimony--
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, just because there has been a lot of
discussion about this slab on grade, I did want to point out that staff has not made it a
requirement for the slab on grade construction. It talks about this slab on grade
construction is used in conjunction with typical footings. Builders of each lot shall
comply with all recommendations contained in applicant's geo-technical engineering
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 39 of 68
report dated 6/10/04. So, it allows for slab on grade and gives them specific conditions
as to what should happen, but it does not currently require slab-on-grade construction.
Rountree: Madam Mayor? Do you have a question?
Wardle: Well, I was just going to --
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, I was just going to ask for clarification, because I believe my
question to the applicant and the response was that all of the lots will be slab on grade.
So, would planning staff like to add that as a condition of approval?
Canning: Certainly. If the City Council would like to add that as a condition of approval,
that's fine. We just didn't make it a requirement -- I guess we would just leave the
option open. If, for some reason, that slab on grade wasn't appropriate for one lot, it left
it open, but I think -- we don't have any concerns about making it a condition of
approval.
Wardle: Okay.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I have a question for Anna. Would you put this development in context with
what's around it?
Anna: Certainly, sir. And you're going to stump me a little bit, because I'm not sure
where Tuscany begins and Messina begins and Tuscany ends, but I believe that these
are the Tuscany projects and, then, these are the Messina projects over here. And,
then, it -- they come through off of Eagle Road, it connects in, this is the school site, [
believe, and, then, these have gone through final plat through you. I don't think they
have been signed yet. They are not showing up on our -- as platted lots. And if you
had more questions, this man might be able to help me. They are recorded, they are
just not showing up. So, these are all recorded and, then, you have approved final plats
on all of those over here. So, this does connect over through the next application and,
then, back up into Messina and Tuscany.
Rountree: I know that the key along side of that tells me something, but at this point I
can't read it clearly and I have trouble with colors anyway, so -- I think they are all
yellow, but I think they are different shades of yellow.
Canning: R-4 zoning in these areas. This is an R-8 zoning. A little darker. And they
are proposing R-8 zoning. And Messina Meadow is also proposing R-8 zoning.
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 40 of 68
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Another question. What number or percentage of the lots that we are talking
about that would require reduced frontage and/or lot sizes.
Canning: If you can give me a moment, I could see if it's in the staff report. Madam
Mayor, Members of the Council, 144 of the 166 lots are below the 64 foot minimum
frontage requirement and 135 of the 166 lots are below the 6,500 square foot minimum.
De Weerd: And what's the net density?
Canning: You will have to ask the applicant. I did not find it in --
Rountree: 3.8.
Canning: That's the gross density.
De Weerd: Oh. Yeah. There is no net density.
Canning: I was not able to find a net density either.
De Weerd: I wouldn't have accepted this application. Now, as I understand it, the
number of other lots was reduced. Is that right, Susan? Isn't that what you said? But
the number of building lots were not. Were they increased? Okay. The answer was
no, Dean. You couldn't hear that, could you. Okay. Council, any further information?
Mr. Watson, you have a comment?
Watson: I'm sorry, Madam Mayor. Just one point of information that should reflect
either positively or negatively on this, but we are just getting to that point in the south
area where I need to bring this to your attention with each application. Based on our
sewer modeling and considering the pre-plats that have been approved by Council, we
have an estimated 1,079 ERUs left. With this application it would be reduced to
approximately 900 and I could give it later, but we will consider it here in a few minutes,
if Messina Meadows proceeds forward, that would reduce the available capacity in the
Ten Mile Trunk to 424 units. I just wanted to point that out as we start getting to that
point.
De Weerd: And those calculations, Brad, are those considering -- that's all preliminary
platted lots? That wouldn't be the final platted or considering phasing?
Watson: Madam Mayor, we consider those ERUs consumed as soon as the preliminary
plat is approved.
De Weerd: Okay.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 41 of 68
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Before I guess I give my personal opinion on slab on grade construction, Brad,
do you have any professional opinions about that type of housing construction?
Watson: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Wardle, no, I don't, other than I have been told
it's more expensive and that long-term access -- future access to some of your utilities is
a little bit difficult.
Wardle: Thank you.
De Weerd: And considering the price of concrete -- okay. Mr. Wardle, please, share
your opinion.
Wardle: And, Madam Mayor, just to make my comment on slab-on-grade construction
for housing and that I don't see it as a deterrent to having a quality housing
development. In some ways it is more beneficial. I personally being one of those
individuals that doesn't like to get down and crawl around underneath my home.
Certainly it has some advantages in a situation like this, having an applicant ask that it
be -- or at least offer to make it a requirement to relieve some groundwater issues that
may potentially in the future become an issue is certainly something to consider. So,
that was my personal opinion.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Wardle. Is there any further comment? I would entertain a
motion.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Hearing no further comment, I move that we close the public hearings on Items
17,18 and 19.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to close Items 17 through 19. All those in favor say aye. All
ayes. Motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, question for legal counsel. Where would that additional
requirement fit in, Mr. Nary?
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 42 of 68
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, Councilman Wardle, I think the
discussion we had was probably putting it in the development agreement, would be
appropriate and probably in the conditions of approval as well for the planned
development would make the most sense. So, in Items 17 and 19.
Wardle: Seventeen and nineteen? And would we need to bring back the Findings for
that or --
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, Councilmember Wardle, since it was
just a recommendation at the Planning and Zoning level and was not included in the
Findings that are before you, yes, I would recommend that we bring them back in two
weeks with that addition.
Wardle: All right. Madam Mayor, with that I move that we approve Item 17, AZ 05-007,
request for annexation and zoning for Bellingham Park Subdivision and to include all
staff and applicant comments and to include the condition as stated by the applicant
that each of the foundations for the homes be required to be slab-on-grade construction
and to bring back those amended Findings.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion to approve Item 17. If there is no further discussion --
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I just need to make a comment I'm really torn with this particular
application. There is a lot of issues with the site and appreciate the amount of time and
energy that's gone into trying to make it work. I'm not sure it does. I'm concerned about
if we annex this into the city, we are annexing into the city a subdivision that's taken full
advantage of a planned unit development and pretty much -- pretty nearly, entirely, is an
exception to what we would consider an R-8 lot as a minimum and not necessarily
consistent with its neighbor to the north. I see wide streets and shallower lots and long
streets with every house being 20 feet off the road and looking exactly like the
neighbors. And I don't see amenities in this particular subdivision that shout out to
compensate or add to the value of having to this kind of development to Meridian. For
those reasons I probably will not vote in favor of that motion.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you for your comments. Is there any further discussion? Mr.
Berg, will you call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, absent; Rountree, nay; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: TWO AYES. ONE NAY. ONE ABSENT.
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 43 of 68
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. Item 18.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: I move that we approve Item 18, PP 05-009, to include all staff, applicant and
public comments, including the comments of the addition to the CC&Rs in regard to
maintenance of the road swales.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to approve Item 18. Is there any discussion? Mr. Berg.
Berg: Thank you, Madam Mayor. Are the Findings okay to approve or--
Nary: Madam Mayor.
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Nary.
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I think since we are going to have the
other ones, I would -- you can certainly approve them tonight, but I have them follow it
on the 26th, as well, with the other, so that way they stay together as one project.
Roll-Call: Bird, absent; Rountree, nay; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: TWO AYES. ONE NAY. ONE ABSENT.
De Weerd: Okay. Item 19. Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, I move that we approve Item No. 19, CUP 05-008, planned
development for Bellingham Park Subdivision and to include all staff and applicant
comments, in addition to the two previous conditions in regard to slab on grade
construction and roadways.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to approve Item 19. Mr. Berg, will you call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, absent; Rountree, nay; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: TWO AYES. ONE NAY. ONE ABSENT.

South Eagle Road between East Victory Road and East Amity Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Items 20, 21 and 22 are public hearings on AZ 05-017, PP 05-019,
and CUP 05-026. I will open these three public hearings with staff comments.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this is Messina Meadows, which, as
you know by now, is right immediately east of Bellingham Park. It's located south of
Victory and west of Eagle Road. The applications before you tonight are annexation
and zoning, preliminary plat, and Conditional Use Permit for a planned development
There are 491 single-family residentlallots proposed and 67 other lots on 136.72 acres.
That's a gross density of 3.5 units per acre. Point five eight. Excuse me. And it is a
proposed R-8 zone. They have requested a planned development to facilitate patio
homes and for reductions to the minimum dimensional standards for their standard lots
as well. The standard -lots are requesting a reduction from -- sorry. Just a moment.
The PO is requesting reduction from 6,500 square foot standard, down to 3,600 square
foot minimum. And from street frontage from 65 feet down to 40 feet. There are 65
single-family residences and 103 townhouse lots that are below those minimums -- the
standard minimums. So, in this case it's about one fifth of the -- or one fourth of the
units. On the standard lots, they are requesting a five-foot rear side entry garage as a
reduced minimum. On the park side lots, which I will zero in on, these are -- these are
the park side lots. And let me explain how these work. I have called them park side. I
don't know what the -- that's their name, but -- these are the roads that circles them and,
then, a private road that comes on the east boundary and, then, you will see the alley
connection between the streets and the second alley connection there. These wide
connections here are an open space lot. They are not a street These are open space
lots. So, the houses front onto an open space lot and you will see an open space lot
down here as well. I may have some pictures of those I will go to briefly. That is the
elevation from the alley and these are the elevations from the front on the open space
lot.
De Weerd: Anna, how wide are those roads?
Canning: It's the same road section that Bellingham was proposing. I'm not sure
whether they are -- the sidewalks are in an easement or if they are in the right of way on
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 45 of 68
this one, so the applicant -- I can look it up after I finish, if you'd like me to, or the
applicant can answer that question.
De Weerd: Okay.
Canning: The amenities include an eight and a half acre park and also a .3-acre
clubhouse with pool, which I can't locate anymore. Okay. And those are located in this
area right there. There we go.
De Weerd: That's a road. I need to put my glasses on.
Canning: Some of the significant features -- this is the Ridenbaugh that dips into the
corner of the property. And, then, we have a drain that traverses the north side of the
property. We have the Ten Mile Creek on the west end of the property in the flood
plane designation as depicted is -- currently follows these blue lines. You also have the
Eight Mile Drain -- no? Oops. I'm going to give up now. I'll have the applicant explain
where the Eight Mile Drain is. There are a number of small drains, as you see them.
Most of those are just to serve the site, but the Eight Mile Drain is on the property as
well. Oh, he's shaking his head again. I think he's pulling my leg, but we will -- the
same issue regarding the Ten Mile Creek applies here as was discussed before. They
do intend to do a LOMAR. We have added that same condition of approval, just with
regard to the -- if that is not accomplished, then, they will need to come back or not
develop in those areas. The Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended
approval at their June 2nd hearing. The key issues of discussion were the impact of the
development on the Stark's property. And they are located down in this corner. The
landscape buffer on the north and east side of the Stark's property, that property line
dispute between submitted survey and legal description of the Stark's property, so that I
think you're seeing that the conversation focused almost entirely on the Stark's property.
They did also talk about the Ten Mile Creek sub plan. the mixed medium and low
density housing products and lot sizes and allowing the Starks and Tuscany
development to reach an understanding. It does appear that they have met I noticed
that there is a letter from Steven and Kathy Stark regarding two conditions of approval
that they are requesting be added that were the result of the negotiation or -- and, then,
those testifying in favor at that Public Hearing were Kent Brown and Craig Groves. No
one spoke in opposition. And commenting were Steven and Kathy Stark. The key
changes to staff's initial recommendation by the Commission were that they added
several conditions of approval regarding the Stark's property. And they also added five
-- or those are detailed. There is five of them in your summary document. You got a
revised cover sheet today and if you will notice on the second page of that -- I believe
it's the second page. Let me double-check. On the second page of item number one,
you will see some add underlined text, that was accidentally omitted from the first one,
so that -- that was part of the minutes, but it was on a second page. Staff originally
missed it So, that's the only change. That's why we got an amended cover sheet to
those, just to add that remainder of that sentence. So, those five conditions that the
Commission added are shown there. They also added the following comment: The
applicant shall work with the Starks to resolve property line dispute and provide legal
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 46 of 68
descriptions as agreed and to amend the Starks property to reflect the current fence
lines on the north and east of the Stark's property. There do seem to be some
outstanding issues before Council. The first one is requiring an amended survey to
reflect the property line amendments, as we agree upon by the applicant, as I just noted
above. The second one, the Council should consider the earlier conversation during --
about the parks department's ability to get these parks up and running. The Council
should decide whether that is an appropriate location or desired location for the park.
Staff does want to point out that it's not on the arterial road, you do have to come into
the development a fair ways before you reach that park. And the third one is that,
again, similar to the previous, although not as constrained a site, there are a number of
issues related to the development of this property. Those include the flood plane and
not the -- and it isn't an associated issue, but also their high groundwater and poor soils.
Again, this site is quite a bit higher relative to Bellingham, but there are still concerns
related to the property. I have some other pictures. This is the blow up of that park site
area. There you have the flood plane. I was told this is the Eight Mile Lateral looking
west. And this is the one where -- apparently I'm incorrect. This is the future park site
looking south. It was raining that day. The groundwater issues aren't quite that high.
And this is the -- towards the north end of the property where the multi-use pathways
would be looking east. The trees you see are the -- all along Eagle Road. And, then,
you can see part of the Messina development underway, with the unfinished -- there we
go. You can see the building that's in the Messina property. And, then, as I mentioned,
these are some of the elevations. This is what they would look like from the alley side
and, then, this is what they would look like from that lineal open space park side. That
style of development is -- this is the first time it's come before Council. They ran it by
the planning department a couple different times and ways before they submitted it. It's
-- it's an appealing concept, in all honesty. It provides a real different product for
anything you have seen before and they were able to address the fire department
concerns with the alleys and with the -- some private roads, so they seemed to have
met those. They also have little parking areas, I believe, where these open up. There
is linear open space going north-south as well. And they have little parking areas there
for guest parking. I think with that I will end staff's application -- or staff's presentation,
so that we can find out where the Eight Mile Lateral is on the property.
De Weerd: Any questions for Anna?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Anna, you indicated that that had been resolved with the fire department on
the alley access to that park side area.
Canning: That was my understanding.
Rountree: What was that? And maybe Chief Anderson can address that.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 47 of 68
Anderson: Thank you. Councilman Rountree, to my recollection I think what we finally
resolved was that there would be a blocked out no parking space where the fire
department could pull a pumper in to access and, then, stretch our hose Jines down the
length of that Is that correct, Kent? I guess I'm incorrect, too. So, we will find out
where the Eight Mile Lateral and where the fire departments going to access these
buildings, I guess, from the applicant. But that was our concern is being able to reach
the length of these buildings, because of the closeness and fences are built in between
these buildings, whether we would be able to get to the front and the rear of the
building.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you.
Rountree: I'm sure we will get an answer.
De Weerd: You can count on it. Right, Kent? Okay. If you will, please, state your
name and address.
Brown: For the record, Kent Brown, 1800 West Overland, Boise, Idaho. I am excited
about this project. There is a number of things that we have been working on for like a
year and a half on it. The comment about the parks department, we started with the
parks department, because the Comprehensive Plan says that the city wants a park out
here. So, we worked with them initially. One of the things that might interest you is this
point right here is the center -- this point right here is the center of the section. So, even
though it's inside the development, the other part that -- and I'll try not to shake, but
that's not going to happen. You have a collector level road. This is Eagle Road right
here. The collector level road comes right in right to the park right here. This is
Montique. It goes straight up to the elementary school to the north and has a
connection to Locust Grove. I believe this is de Vinci. de Vinci is right near the
Ridenbaugh Canal and there is a canal crossing there. So, this area over in here can
also access it Bellingham that you just approved, comes in right at this location with
their street location. You come right in and we have a pedestrian pathway taking this
right into the park at that location. You also have a collector level road coming from the
south from Amity Road going north up to the park. And so everything kind of funnels
one way or another to the park. We have a single sided street, so we have all of this
side that can be parked on for park activities. Anna, let's talk about that other map I
gave you. The other one. Can we put it on the screen? I think if you will look at this
one, we are going to look on the screen with this one. What we did with Joe Silva at the
fire department, we initially talked about blocking out some areas in the center of the
block, so that they could go north-south in these block areas and what we did is
widened the street sections to 24 feet, which, then, the fire department said that they
had total access. The houses are set back 20 feet from the street. And, then, if you
look in between the units, if you look at what's on the screen, the park -- that eight acre
park sits right here on the top part of the screen. You have the ability to come out the
front of any of these houses as they are built and walk to the park here. You can come
back around and go north-south down to the collector level road -- okay. Where did it
go? To go to the collector road here. So, everybody that is there has the ability to
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 48 of 68
come out onto a green space. Basically, the users of these are different than my wife.
They don't mow lawns, for the most part. My wife really gets a charge out of mowing
the lawn, so I tease her about that.
Rountree: Send her over.
Brown: Give me your address and I'll tell her. One of the things that's kind of unique
about the way that we have done these is we don't have any zero lot lines, we don't
have any attached housing or, if you will, a patio home. We are setting these houses on
the center of the lot with the building setbacks on either side and, then, through CC&Rs
what we are doing is we are making it so that this unit here has, right up to building side
there, use of that side yard line. So, even though five feet of it is theirs and five feet of
it's their neighbor's, they are using that ten feet between the two buildings. So, the only
place that you have a gate or a fence is right here at the building line and, then, you
have a gate here and we told the fire department that if they pulled up here and they
wanted to come in the front, there is gates this way, there is no fence between the
buildings. In a standard development you have a house five feet off with a fence there.
We have got ten feet in between those buildings and you can go down the side. The
other part that's really nice about that is that we are secure in this area -- they have a
private space. They might have windows, but they will be up high, so that it is a nice
private space. And that's part of what we are excited about. We are asking for a five
foot setback off of what would probably typically be viewed as the rear of the house.
But, realistically, as you look at those elevations, we have a door to the private street
that Anna called alleys in this space and we have a door out the front. So, there is --
realistically you have -- and if you look at those elevations, both sides of them look very
nice. I mean it's porches and so forth on the park side and, yet, the back side of those
houses where the garages were were still very very nice and we are working with about
three different builders that -- my clients are here, the developer, and they can -- I mean
if you need names -- I know that Eaglewood is one of the ones that they are planning on
taking down 60 of those lots. There is a hundred in all. A little bit more than 100 by 108
or something like that overall. But we are real excited about these. These are also
located next to the biggest open space in the development. So, even though these
people have the least amount of lawn, they can go have the Meridian parks department
mow the lawn that they want to go play on, if you will. So, that's very nice of you guys to
do that. And we want to make sure that there is a lawn. My clients want to green this
park up, they want to make sure that it's usable when we come in and so we have
talked to Doug Strong and we want to green it up. We have also agreed that -- that we
would do the restrooms and any of those other tot lot type things in a parking lot, if we
could get reimbursed for those other items. We are willing to green it up, get it so that
it's a usable park, but if we could work out a deal to being reimbursed for the -- a tot
playground area and a restroom. One of the thoughts that we had is that you might
have perpendicular parking, because we have this one whole side. Doug liked that
idea. I think we need to work with Anna if we do that I don't know that that's
necessarily what your planning department likes. But you just have it to the south of
this particular building with Meridian Chamber of Commerce and you have similar type
parking. You have that same type of parking that we would be proposing also with your
Meridian City Council

Boys and Girls Club and the park area that you have to the east of it. That's what we
were thinking could be done in this particular area. One of the discussions is is that --
and we had discussed this with my client prior to it being a condition, but every single lot
in this subdivision will have an elevation as to where the house is going to be built. My
client had already asked us to do that and what you get out of that -- and that's the
same condition that you had on Bellingham, to do a master drainage and grading plan,
and what you get by that is that you don't have one builder stick the house out of the
ground too high and slope it so that he floods his neighbor or one stick it down too low.
And as Mr. Bailey spoke, it is a standard requirement of Ada County that engineers
provide those kind of plans, so that the builders put the houses at their right elevation,
thereby -- by doing that, then, you're getting the water away from the foundation a little
better. I mean you're still going to have people that maybe are going to overwater, but
at least the grading is there to make that happen and happen so that it -- you know,
unless it goes for days, you don't have as many problems. And that's why Ada County
has kind of put that as a standard condition. And you have that as a condition of us on
this particular development. I don't know if I -- unless I want to just answer your
questions that you might have, that's all I can say at this point.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, do you have questions? No? Okay. Thank you. Okay. Is
there anyone who would like to provide testimony on this application? Outside of the
developer. Please state your name and address.
Johnson: I'm Greg Johnson at 2432 Can Ada Road.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Johnson: First of all, [ think it would be very appropriate this day that there was a nice
article written in the paper about the City of Meridian and its selection as the 74th most
livable city in the United States of America. I remember very clearly 1989 when we
presented our first plat in Meridian and I'm very glad to be a part of that and I think
everyone here has been a great influence in that happening in the City of Meridian. The
proposal that we propose on the park is very similar to what we achieved in Bear Creek.
It was a larger park. It was 19 acres, instead of eight acres, but it's a very similar
arrangement. We are very happy with the Bear Creek Park and how the Bear Creek
Subdivision has marketed and how the city has maintained a beautiful park. We have
never had an issue of poor maintenance or anything in that. I really appreciate the
parks department for that and everyone here for supporting us in that. We are asking to
be reimbursed for the restrooms. They are a fairly expensive construction item to a
park. We are asking to be reimbursed for that construction out of park fees. We will be
glad to construct those facilities during our construction, because I think they are much
more easy to put in initially and have them as part of the park to start with, instead of the
way we did it at Bear Creek. But it will be a beautiful park and I know it's a little smaller.
It will be very functional. I think the fingers that go through the park site product really
make them all part of a total park setting and we are really excited about this product.
Similar things have been built in San Francisco and other markets. We think we have
corrected some of the things that make them a little more difficult and with our wider
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 50 of 68
street section and setting our garages back from the alley, it gives a nice street
appearance on that side and, yet, we have a wonderful livable park area and it really
becomes and community playground and for young children to go out of their home and
play with neighborhood kids in an area where mom can see them out of the kitchen
window and other things, I think will be a very fun neighborhood to live in. This
determination of the elevations of each lot I think is important for us as a developer. We
have tried to monitor that and other methods, but where we sell to multiple builders, it's
very difficult and we would rather have it on the plat and monitor it that way from the
start and if somebody messes up, they dig out a foundation. And it will help resolve a
lot of issues. It usually ends up, as Kent described, it's usually one house is set too high
and one a little too low and you just can't resolved the issue if that happens. So, they
each will have a specific foundation height to meet and that will have to be done. Again,
we appreciate all your support and thank you for this opportunity to present this
application. Any questions?
De Weerd: Any questions, Council? Okay. Thank you. Any further testimony?
Stark: My name is Steve Stark. I live at 2630 East Amity Road and is it possible to put
up the development map up there? We live on the three acres surrounded by the
development right down there and as you can see, we are being really -- our life is
changing dramatically by this development The night of the Planning and Zoning
meeting my wife and I met with Mr. Craig Groves and we came to some agreements
that were mostly included in the Conditional Use Permit, Exhibit F, but two of the most
important things that we agreed to that night were not included in the permit and so I
wrote a letter, it was delivered today, and what we are asking the Meridian City Council
to do is, please, include the two conditions that in our letter in the specific -- in the site
specific conditions as a condition of approval before approving the Messina Meadows
Subdivision, so -- and I heard during the opening comments that there was an
addendum added to it that I didn't get a copy of and I'm not sure what that was, an
addendum, and I talked to Joe Guenther from Planning and Zoning and he said he was
going to have an addendum on there, but this is what we agreed to. In our letter, the
first thing is addressing the garage. Oh, thank you. Oh. Okay. What we added to this
is that the garage will be constructed on the same setback as the driveway, five feet to
the north property line on Lot 6, Block 9. What we agreed to at the night of the Planning
and Zoning meeting is we agreed to have the garage of the house on lot directly to the
east of our property, Lot 6, Block 9. It would be placed so that it would be attached to
the house and stand directly between our property and the driveway, so the automobile
would head directly down the driveway straight into the garage to minimize headlight
glare and also agreed to restriction on the windows on the west side of the house built
there and the reason why we are asking for that on this driveway -- it's not a
conventional driveway off of the street like normal where you head directly into a
garage, it goes down and passed this lot into this lot and our house sits right here and
so Mr. Groves agreed to place the garage so it would directly block the light coming
into our property. Also, we agreed to the second and third lots on the east side of our
property, which on the plat we looked at was Lot 8 and 9 of Block 9, be limited to single
story homes, with the exception of bonus rooms over the garage, dormers facing east,
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 51 of 68
and that's this lot and this lot. And these items were really important to us. We agreed
upon -- Mr. Groves was at our house on July 5th and we talked about those specific
things. I don't think there would be any controversy. So, that's alii would ask. Thank
you.
De Weerd: Thank you. Council, any questions. Thank you, sir. Okay. Any further
testimony? Okay. If you'd like to make final comments.
Brown: I guess, just in summary, what we did is we took the successful parts of what
we learned in Tuscany Lakes and Messina Hills and Messina Village that are to the
north and those have been very successful for us and have brought those down in
Messina Meadows. We had learned about this alternative street section up there, we
had never done those before, and have brought those down into this portion, too. If you
will, what's kind of different in this is that we have added to what we have already
previously been successful with, we have added a city park and we have these park
side lots and we are excited about both, we are excited to have the city park located in
this development and to gift this to the city and to do these things to make this happen.
And we think that we have addressed all those issues. This did not have the water
problems that we had in some of the portions of the development to the north and so we
are confident that we can go forward and address the city's concerns.
De Weerd: Kent, what is your open space in this? I have been looking through this
application and I -- I'm sure it's there, I just can't find it.
Brown: There is a whole series of different open spaces. We have the Ten Mile
pathway that is along tliis portion here. We have an open space that walks over into
what the Bellingham park is. We have the parkways that we are providing with these
lots that are also in that open space. We have the pool and clubhouse that is located
here. I really haven't even talked about that, but we have provided a means from
different portions of the development to go through open spaces here to get to the pool.
There is connections this way, so that other portions of the development can get there.
One of the things that this alternative street section is that you gain this green space
and we are putting trees on every lot line throughout the development that you have
what appears to be bigger spaces. I remember sitting on the Planning and Zoning
Commission when Woodbridge came in and they offered to have sidewalk on one side
of the street and, then, have more landscaping. Basically, with this alternative street
section you end up having a lot of that take place and you have more landscaping and,
then, get to where the lots are at. So, specifically when we have these collector level
roads and, then, have landscaping, you have lots of -- lots of landscaping before you
get to those. And so I hope that answered that question.
De Weerd: Well, it didn't. What percentage of open space do you have in there?
Brown: According to the plat we have 25 acres of open space. Percentagewise -- I'd
have to look at my application, but I believe it was like 13 or 14 percent open space
overall.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 52 of 68
De Weerd: Wow. Twenty-five acres. Amazing. Okay.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Kent, if you could just -- I'm sure you answered this. If you would walk me
through the -- how you addressed the fire department's concerns.
De Weerd: When we had the fire department discussion, we had a narrower street
section. We had a 20-foot section. And so what they were asking for is in -- where we
had the parking stalls here, that we provide an asphalt area to go north and south,
basically making those every 250 feet, a means that they could go that way. By
widening it to 24-foot, which is what they have used in other private roads, then, they
have that access and, then, I think on top of that is that we have that ten foot of room,
instead of five foot on either side of that property line that the fire department can easily
run down between the units, because there is no internal fence in that area and so that's
how we addressed it with Joe Silva.
Wardle: Okay. Madam Mayor, an additional question. And seeing the staff report and
hearing testimony from Mr. Stark, do you believe that addresses the concerns that he --
the addition to the recommendation -- do you believe it addresses those concerns and
you are in agreement with it?
Brown: Yes, we are.
Wardle: Okay.
Brown: We have provided them with a letter, an agreement to comply with those. Anna
did make a good suggestion, as other discussion was going on, that in between these
units that we grant easements to specific lots, instead of trying to cover it in the CC&Rs.
And I think that that is a great idea. Then, it's on the plat, there is no question about that
and it would just be an easement granted to the particular adjacent landowner for the
use of that area and they are going to maintain -- operate and maintain it.
De Weerd: Anything further? Okay. Kent, you mentioned that you have different
housing choices when you have the park neighborhood or what -- what are you calling
that? That unique space.
Canning: Park side.
De Weerd: Park center.
Brown: The park side lots?
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 53 of 68
De Weerd: Uh-huh.
Brown: Okay.
De Weerd: What are your different lot sizes? Do you have -- you have those types
there, but do you have other kinds of housing choices?
Brown: If you look down towards the Ten Mile in the greenbelt area, those lots are
among our largest. The ones that back up to the Starks are some of our very largest
and they -- I could give you some dimensions or square footing, if you like, if that's what
you want me to do.
De Weerd: Then, in the front of your development you have -- are those patio home
sizes or --
Brown: We have 50 and 60 foot wide lots in some of those, but the lot square footage is
somewhere around 7,000, 6,600, in that area. Basically, I guess what -- in my
summary, those lot sizes that were successful for us in Tuscany, we tried to bring those
down into this same area and some of the lots you have in Tuscany Lakes that were a
little bigger, you're going to find those more along the south and west side of our
development. Some of the houses that have been very successful within Tuscany
Village are over closer to Eagle Road and, then, you have kind of a transition in the
middle there between the two.
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, what happens on Lot 7 in Block 11, the one just west of the
Starks?
Brown: Just west of the Starks?
Rountree: Yes. The one on the --
Brown: There is an existing house on that lot.
Rountree: Okay.
Brown: And--
Rountree: So, that stays in place?
Brown: That stays in place.
Rountree: And you will access through the subdivision?
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 54 of 68
Brown: It has a private drive and it has a full access on the internal part of the
subdivision, yes.
Rountree: Thank you.
De Weerd: And I guess I have a final -- I won't say it's a final question. I have another
question.
Brown: That particular lot -- if I can -- that particular lot is almost an acre in size.
mean and that kind of shows you some of our diversity. I'm sorry.
De Weerd: And you will keep the house on there. That house is --
Brown: Yes.
De Weerd: How are you phasing this, Kent?
Brown: It looks like two or three phases.
De Weerd: And will the park side neighborhood and park and the clubhouse be in the
first phase?
Brown: Yes. And I'm glad you brought that up, because that -- I forgot about that when
-- our initial phase -- we are going to come in with the main road here and come in and
include the clubhouse and pool and, then, come all the way over to this point and come
down and stay out of the flood way area and include all the way over to Bellingham.
So, our park, parkway lots, and basically everything north of that Mona Lisa Drive, the
main road in, is in one phase. For us it's about the largest phase we have ever done. I
think it's 308 lots is what we are hoping to do.
De Weerd: And so just to get an idea on the park, you will do what you would need to
do typically for your green space, the additional amenity of the restroom and a tot lot
would be asked of the city.
Brown: And any parking lot that you would want for that. I mean we need to work out
how that's done, but, yeah, the parking lot also. For reimbursement.
De Weerd: Okay. Any last questions, Council? Okay.
Brown: We would like to also -- like we discussed in Messina Hills, we want to build this
clubhouse with our development. So, we would like that approval to do so. You
granted us that approval in Messina Hills Three.
De Weerd: Are you saying you won't come with change orders every other week?
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 55 of 68
Brown: The pool, as Grady just kind of corrected me, doesn't have a clubhouse, it has a
changing room with it. It doesn't have like at Two Rivers type of clubhouse, but it does
have a changing room and a pool area. We also in our proposal wanted to have
parallel parking, instead of having a parking lot. We have a lot of frontage right there for
that pool versus running in and having a parking area and that was in our initial
application also.
De Weerd: Kent, if this is going to be a city park -- and I understand you will probably
put city park on your plat, but just so the neighbors know that that will be a public park --
and there will be traffic going in there, how will you provide adequate notice so that the
neighbors are aware?
Brown: What we did in Messina Hills No. One, we had school lot, we called it out of a
school lot. On this particular preliminary plat we called this out as a park lot, not as a
common area lot. So, that's, I guess, how we get to that.
De Weerd: Will you allow signs -- directional signs to the city park or --
Brown: I can't see why not. It's a city park; right?
De Weerd: We've never had directional signs to our parks, so --
Brown: Isn't there one to -- it's Chateau. That's where I was thinking that there was.
De Weerd: I don't think I have ever seen one. Boy, they break down every day.
Brown: Slow down and you can see them.
De Weerd: If there is no further questions, Council -- okay. Thank you, Kent--
Brown: No. Thank you.
De Weerd: -- for final comment.
Brown: No, I don't want --
Canning: Madam Mayor, I do need to clarify a couple of issues that -- I don't know that
the applicant needs to stay up there, but the staff report notes 10.4 percent open space
and that does not include the parkway. So, if they have included the area in the
parkways, that could very well bring it up. Those long stretches of roadway add up.
The other thing we need to clarify is the alley versus private lanes on the parkway. The
provision that allows for private streets in our code is in the planned development
section, but it has very specific minimum widths and they, basically -- or ACHD reduced
street section standard. These would not qualify as private streets under our ordinance
and that's why I called them alleys, because, really, they are functioning like an alley, it
just happens that this property has no street in front of it, it has an open space in front of
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 56 of 68
it, but they are functioning much more like alleys. The applicant is constrained on a
portion of the sight in that an alley needs to connect from a public street to a public
street and they are unable to do that. They can do it in this -- this pod, for lack of a
better word, but on the one immediately west -- east, they are unable to do it, because
they do have a private street that it connects to. So, these would likely end up being
either public alleys on one side and private alleys on the other, which may be confusing.
The police department has an issue with the private alleys, they won't -- will not enforce
speed limits in a private alley. They may do it in a public alley or they are allowed to do
it in a public alley. So, there is an issue there and the enforcement of speed limits
within those alleys. So, that was one of the issues I needed to bring up. The other one
was with regard to the parking. It was mentioned early in the presentation that they had
been considering parallel parking off the street. To my knowledge, ACHD has only
allowed that in our Old Town area. I'm not sure if -- I wouldn't mind having the
discussion in this location, although it concerns me that it's a fairly well traveled road
and a long block. I'm particularly concerned that the applicant just mentioned that they
wanted to do parallel parking for the swimming pool. I don't think that that was
addressed in the staff report. I don't remember ever having that discussion. It seems
inappropriate there on a collector road to have parallel parking directly coming off of
that, so I did want to point that out also. So, sorry to continue the discussion on the
matter, but thought it important to address those issues.
De Weerd: Well, I just want a point of clarification. You said they had over ten percent
is open space?
Canning: The staff report indicates that 10.4 percent without including the parkways.
The parkways would be-the long green strips along the roads.
De Weerd: Okay. And of that how -- will they still meet their requirement without the
city park? I guess we always have a question if you dedicate it to the public, it's -- is it
still considered part of their open space.
Canning: I would certainly consider it still part of it. It's part of the development as a
whole. Regardless of who has ownership of that property, it's still part of the
development, the planned development. Without that they -- given that it's over half of
the large open space, they probably wouldn't meet their five percent minimum, although
they might with the parkways. If they come up with 13 and so three of it's the parkways,
so they only need two percent, the numbers may work. I'm not sure.
De Weerd: Okay. Any--
Brown: I didn't mean for it to be confusing here where the pool and the changing room -
- we did put that in our narrative, that that was one of the things that we were asking for,
parking there -- at least -- I mean it's been like four months or whatever since I
submitted, but I believe that that's what I remembered. This is a local street right here
that this fronts on. You have one whole side that is that clubhouse and that's where we
figured that we could get those two or three parking stalls. The collector road is on this
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 57 of 68
other side over here and so the clubhouse sits behind that landscaping. That's the way
we --
De Weerd: It's not a clubhouse; it's a changing room.
Brown: That's -- changing room. You got to, you know, smack me later, but -- I think
that that was it.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you for that clarification.
Nary Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Just on your other point, because I don't know when it would be a better time to
bring it up, but on the park issue, if there is a concern from the Council about making
sure it's clear that at the city park you might want to direct the parks department, since
Mr. Strong isn't here tonight, but the parks department to begin the process of naming
the park, putting up a sign to the park. One of the things that I have heard a number of
times since I have been here is that we have a beautiful park at Bear Creek, as Mr.
Johnson said, but there is still a number of residents that believe it's a homeowners park
and not a city park and it has a sign on it that says City of Meridian park, but I think if
you're going to imprint on the folks as they build and move into those homes, if a sign
already exists there that says future Meridian park or even a name was selected for it or
whatever, then, that might be a way to address the concern that was raised to make
sure people understand-that it is a public park, not a private subdivision park.
De Weerd: Good point. Thank you. You have already had your final word. It's okay,
Craig. Go ahead and state your name and address
Groves: Craig Groves, 3920 East Shady Glen court. I just wanted to kind of clarify. I
was going through my calculations on this total common area and Kent didn't have a
calculator with him when he mentioned 13 percent. It's actually 19 percent, which would
include all the parkway land, all the land along the Ten Mile. It would include the park
dedication. So, I just wanted to make that clarification.
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. He upstaged you, Kent. He got the final word. Okay.
Council, would you like to close this public hearing?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I have a question for Anna. Anna, what's the language in the staff's
recommendation and/or do we have proposed Findings on this, as it relates to this
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 58 of 68
park? Is there a commitment on the part of the city that it will become part of the city
park system or is it at the city's option?
Canning: Give me just a moment and I will look it up.
De Weerd: I guess we could ask the developer or his representative. Has there been a
commitment from our parks department?
Johnson: We met with the parks department when we first started laying out the plat
and they said that they would like a five to a ten acre park in this area to serve not this
subdivision, but -- and neighborhood, but the surrounding neighborhood that is made up
of small developments that may not have any open space in them and that there was a
need, from the city's standpoint, to have something in this section and all of our
discussions from then on were to establish something large enough that it would be a
city park.
De Weerd: Has our parks commission looked at this? So, only the parks director?
Johnson: That's correct.
De Weerd: Okay.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Rountree, I have the answer to that. The
development agreement states the following: The applicant agrees to dedicate the
public park to the City of Meridian. The park shall be constructed in cooperation with
the parks department and clear title must be provided to the city attorney for review prior
to final plat for that being submitted. Also, the Meridian parks department has added a
standard -- if this is all of their standard conditions, one of them does relate to minimum
acreage standards for city parks. It says the city is willing to develop and maintain
community parks and neighborhood parks. Neighborhood parks will be reviewed as a
case by case basis. The city may choose to maintain neighborhood parks -- this
wouldn't be a neighborhood park, so the rest of it pertains to that, but it's one of their
standard conditions, so it's just referencing the acreage minimums. And those were the
two that I found regarding the parks. So, the development agreement does state it as a
city park, though.
De Weerd: Thank you. Any further questions?
Rountree: I have a question for the developer on the park. It appears to me that a
portion of this park, if -- and I don't know how many acres of it is the entryway to this
subdivision. It probably wouldn't function well as a city park, other than a maintenance
operation for the City of Meridian. I can understand why you would want the city to
maintain that for you, but I, for one, would not be in agreement that the city get title and
have the long-term maintenance requirement of the entrance to the subdivision. I'm
further concerned about the parking.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 59 of 68
Johnson: I'm not sure I understand the question. The collector road is all maintained by
the association.
Canning: I think he means the--
Rountree: That strip across the northern part and that's -- that's an entry and on the
piece that I have in front of me it shows an entryway and a green space on both sides of
the entryway and -- talk to me about that.
Johnson: The property to the north of that is existing phase two of Messina Hills and
has homes backing up to that. It was included as part of the park to allow the -- we are
relocating the Ten Mile feeder in a straight line across the north boundary and so that
will be an open pathway that has a ditch about eight feet wide and a foot and a half
deep that is very pleasant to walk along and that's an open pathway. We felt it would be
good to open up as much of that and allow it to be walked along and enjoyed by
everyone and ties into the whole path system. It is the middle of the section that's not
another section line road or anything up there. It's the middle of a section.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Rountree, it appears to be about 110 feet
wide.
De Weerd: Is that -- is that path area part of what the city would be asked to --
Johnson: Yes. Yeah. And the canal company has an easement through there for that
Ten Mile feeder to pass, but we will have the right to maintain the path and for our
people to walk there an-d it's being designed so that the sides are sloped and grassed,
so that it's not dangerous, but it's -- it will be gravel bottom with a foot and a half of
water flowing in it. It would be dangerous to a toddler and they are going to have to be
supervised, but for normal children in the park, they could wade in it or whatever and
not be in danger. We do plan on developing this park first phase, so that when our
homes start under construction in there, the park is being greened up and by the time
people occupy, the park has been deeded to the city and is being maintained as a park
at that time. So, it will be very usable. We are also greening up all of the park areas in
our park side housing. All of that will be installed before the builder starts building on
the lot. They will have a pad to build on, but their -- everything outside of that boundary
will be maintained by the association and will be already planted and the trees in place
and the sidewalks and everything. That will be done as part of the development. We
also plan on building this swimming pool while we are building the streets, so that that's
open to the day the people move in also.
Rountree: Follow up, Madam Mayor. Then, you also are planning to have the city
maintain the east side of that entryway as well?
Johnson: No.
Rountree: Okay.
Meridian City Council

Johnson: Any other questions?
De Weerd: Any other questions? No? Thank you. Okay. Council, what's your desire
here? If there is no further testimony, I would entertain a motion to close the hearing.
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I'd like to make a motion that we close the public hearing on Items 20, 21 and
22. Can we do them all at once?
De Weerd: Yes.
Donnell: Good.
Wardle: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Motion to close the Public Hearing on Items 20 through 22. All those
in favor say aye. Okay. All ayes. Motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
De Weerd: Discussion or do I have a motion?
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: During the discussion phase Mr. Rountree had begun a process about the
park. Did that address your concerns or do you still have additional --
Rountree: Sure. Madam Mayor. To address Councilman's Wardle's concerns, from
experience these kind of neighborhood parks tend to be not good neighbors for the city.
There is significant ownership on the part of the folks that live around there. That being
the case, it seems to me the value to the city ought to be a park that's fully utilized and
usable. This is -- I really like the innovation of this subdivision. I think they have done a
good job there. But I think the park site itself has not been well thought out We have a
lot of adjacent neighbors and I can tell you every one of them thinks they own that park
and will tell the park superintendent exactly how they want their park maintained. There
is also a commitment or a requirement or -- not a requirement, but an expectation on
the part of the developer that the city will take this and will develop parking and will
develop facilities and, then, it will be used by some smaller subdivisions that mayor
may not be of the like of this subdivision and create yet again additional friction for the
city to deal with. I guess the concept is good, I like the idea of a park in that area, I don't

like the -- how this plays out particularly well and I think that it probably ought to be
looked at. So, that's kind of where I am. But the park side dwellings, I think that's a
neat concept. I think the innovative and creativity of the rest of the site, it's not just long
streets and that sort of thing. So, that part's good. If that's that a homeowners park and
green space, I have no problem with it, but if there is an expectation that that will be the
city's, I have a great amount of concern. So, if the conditions of approval were such that
that could be negotiated with the city and that the expectation would not necessarily be
that the city would take that on, if the maker of a motion were to include a statement like
that, I probably could support that.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Just to follow up on that and having spent some time on the parks commission
and having had discussions about those additional parks, I think that that type of forum
would allow more citizen input into the city's ownership of that property and the ability
for them to maintain it and what -- you know, we have the parks commission in place to
talk about what sorts of amenities, whether it is a tot lot. Certainly, I think a restroom is
critical. But would certainly be supportive of that if those sorts of details were to go
before one of the -- one of the public bodies that we have and, then, be recommended
back to this body for additional action.
De Weerd: Well -- and it is unfortunate that it didn't go through that process and the
developer didn't know about this. We have -- we have Chateau Park that is along a
collector. It's probably pretty similar, although it's laid out with a road abutting one side,
a ditch on another -- it's very similar. I just wonder the depth and the dimensions and I
don't think there has been issues in that subdivision and part of that park was -- did
belong to a subdivision at one time. It has been accepted, I think, as a city park. It's all
in some of the suggestions that have been made and signing it. As people move in they
have the understanding it's a city park, but it does need to go through our commission
for input and priority of when those improvements can be done. But greening it up and
getting it in service is certainly very desirable as we look in bringing green space into
our community, so--
Donnell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mrs. Donnell.
Donnell: I sat through a lot of time and followed this discussion and I think what I would
want to say is that we seem always to be talking out of two sides of our mouths. We
talk about wanting green space and open space and we talk about needing parks and
we continue to talk about the need for parks and, then, when we have a developer that
comes to us with a park -- and I would agree with you, Councilman Rountree, that it --
when it's set in the middle of that, it becomes a park that the homeowners think is theirs
and I think that that does cause some problems, but I'm not sure that -- that we -- that
Meridian City Council
July 12,2005
Page 62 of 68
we are giving the right message. We seem to be giving mixed messages to our
community. And so I just say that and I'm not sure what -- for whatever good that is,
maybe it's because it's 10:30. And so with that, I'm not sure where we are going, I
guess ['Il wait until someone makes a motion and, then, I can determine how I would like
to vote on it.
Wardle: I'll take that upon myself. Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes, Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: If I could just get a clarification from -- from either legal staff or planning staff,
how we would work the conditions to make sure that the process that we just talked
about went through and how to incorporate the developers generous gesture to not only
at the time that the city would like to take that park, to bring that into the fold, as well as
to green it up. How -- Mr. Nary, would you give me some--
Nary: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I guess a couple of different things that
you're talking about. I think what you're going to want -- and you can probably include
them in the development agreement and probably in the preliminary -- or in the CUP
conditions, that prior to final plat the developer will contact the parks department and the
parks -- and get on the parks commission agenda for consideration for it become a
dedicated city park. If I'm understanding the discussion, your concern today is the
location of the park may be okay, it may not be appropriate for a city park, but you'd like
the parks commission to at least have the opportunity to have that conversation first and
make a recommendation to you. It would appear that prior to final plat would make the
most sense, but Mrs. Canning could probably correct me if that's not the best timing to
do that. The other issue of greening up the park, if I understand the testimony from the
developer, the intent to make it a park of the city at no cost and the reimbursement to
the city -- or the reimbursement for impact fees was simply for the greening up of the
park.
De Weerd: No. It was for the restrooms, the tot lot, and the parking.
Nary: And those you would probably want in the development agreement that if it
becomes a dedicated city park, that there could be an offset from impact fees for the tot
lot, the greening up, and all the improvements to the park. So, it's clear there is a
separation between the value of the land and that the park itself was as a donation, but
that the improvements would be offset That also would benefit the developer, because
in the naming policy, if you recall, that was approved by this Council, that's a
consideration on how they name that and how they go through that process of deciding
if that's appropriate or not for a city park. So, making that clear at the outset in the
development agreement would probably be the best way to do that. Again, Mrs.
Canning is probably better at the timing than I am on that, so --
Canning: Madam Mayor, Councilmember Wardle, the timing just depends on if you
want to see it You can make it prior to signature on the final plat and, then, there is the
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 63 of 68
possibility when it comes before you for final plat approval that they mayor may not
have it worked out. If you want to do it before they submit for their final plat hearing or
meeting before you all, then, that's at your option. I would -- Mr. Watson just pointed out
that we are using some older language in that development agreement condition, that it
creates an unattainable condition of approval, because you have to have clear title
before the final plat's approved and that you really can't do that. So, we need to, with
your permission, we'd go back and amend that to our new wording, which I don't
remember off the top of my head, unfortunately, but we spent some time devising
something that worked. So, I would suggest completely removing the development
agreement condition as it stands now and replacing it with what Mr. Nary's discussed.
Wardle: Thank you, Anna and Mr. Nary. The preliminary plat and, then, conditional
use?
Nary: Yes. No. No. On the annexation and zoning, so part of the development
agreement, and, then, on the conditional use. I don't know that it needs to be on the
plat, because we try to stay away from a lot of these things on the plats that are really
nothing to do with the survey, so --
Wardle: I'll give it the non-jurist doctorate try.
Nary: If Mr. Grady can do it, I think that you --
Wardle: Mr. Clerk, for the record, we are going to amend these findings and bring them
back to the Council for ~pproval. All right. Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle, before you make a motion, you know, I guess we need to get a
procedure here, you know, and I apologize to the developer. When we recommend the
development community to go to our parks department, I think it's important that we also
remind them we have a parks commission that it has to go through and that should be
part of a written process or -- for this kind of situation. When Chateau Park kind of went
through this process, it wasn't considered the merging of the parks and that we would
have this particular thing and at Chateau I don't think we have had the neighborhood
feeling like it's their park, because half of it --
Rountree: They were glad to get rid of their park.
De Weerd: Very much so. And Bear Creek we have had some of that and so I think it
is in the signage and it's how you prepare your public in addition. But we do need to
make it clear that there is a parks commission step in this process that --
Canning: And, Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I would have directed them had
I been --
De Weerd: I'm sure you would.
Meridian City Council
July 12, 2005
Page 64 of 68
Canning: -- familiar with that process and it just occurred to me during the hearing
tonight that it would probably benefit me to understand that process a little more in what
they do, so --
De Weerd: And we have a--
Donnell: You tried. You tried to get on the commission?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, I move that we approve Item No. 20, AZ 05-017, annexation
and zoning for Messina Meadows Subdivision, to include all staff, applicant, and public
comments, including additions to staff recommendations for approval. In addition to
that, prior to the signature on final plat to have that the property owner, the developer,
work with the parks commission and to change the language in the agreement to allow -
- to read that the park property will be dedicated and deeded to the City of Meridian in
such a manner that is approved by ultimately the City Council.
De Weerd: What?
Donnell: Second.
Nary: I know exactly everything Councilman Wardle said. I'll take care of it.
De Weerd: I'll wait until we read it.
Nary: I'm totally on --
Wardle: Any questions on --
Nary: No.
Wardle: Okay.
Rountree: I'm not sure what you said, but I like it.
Nary: It may not be verbatim; Councilmember Wardle, but we will get the gist of that in
the development agreement.
Wardle: Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. There has been a motion and a second. Is there any discussion?
And the motion was to approve.
Wardle: Yes.

De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Berg, will you call roll.
Roll-Call: Bird, absent; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Donnell, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Rountree: And, Madam Mayor, if I might -- not necessarily for the record, but I did not
intend to speak out of both sides of my mouth, I intended to speak that the city shouldn't
jump at these things without thinking them through and going through the processes
that we have in place. And to me that's not an option in our Findings.
De Weerd: Thank you. Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Madam Mayor, I move that we approve Item 21, PP 05-019, preliminary plat
for Messina Meadows Subdivision, to include all staff, applicant, and public comments.
Donnell: Second.
De Weerd: Motion to approve Item 21. Mr. Berg, roll call.

Permit for Messina Meadows Subdivision, to include all staff, applicant, and public
comments and, in addition, to include language included in the annexation and zoning
approval in regard to dedication -- to possible dedication of park land to the City of
Meridian.
Donnell: Second.
Wardle: Is that better?
Donnell: Yes. That was good.
De Weerd: You're getting better. Mr. Berg, call roll.

I first saw it up there it was kind of scary.

Brown: I would like to make a comment that, you know, I appreciate doing business in
Meridian. I think that as a former employee of, Bill and I, both in Boise city, and
working, you know, kind of really opened my eyes when I came out and started working
in different cities, I haven't always had the best experience at Meridian and things have
gotten lots lots better. You have hired good people, you have good competent people
that really try to help us through the process, and return calls and do those things and
are professional and that is not the case in the rest of the valley. You would think that
there are certain things that are considered professional, even by cities much bigger
than you, and they don't do them. They know that they should, but they don't, and I
would like to just appreciate that and let you know that, that I do appreciate it and I know
my clients do, too. So, thank you.
De Weerd: Thank you. We appreciate that.
Wardle: That's why we are one of the top 75 places --
Nary: Number one in the state of Idaho.
Rountree: Careful what you wish for.

County assessor, the Ada County recorder, the Idaho State Tax Commission, as
required by law, and providing for a summary of the ordinance and providing for a
waiver of the reading rules and providing an effective date.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Berg. You have heard this ordinance read by title only. Is
there anyone who would like to hear it read in its entirety? Seeing nothing, I would
entertain a motion to approve.
Donnell: So moved.

Zoning Amendment Findings
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
According to Ordinance 11-15-] I, 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 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;
The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the subject
property as "Low Density Residential". In Chapter VII of the Comprehensive
Plan, low density is defined as areas including single-family homes at densities of
three dwelling units. per acre or less. The applicant is not proposing a residential
zone/use for this site. The City recently approved Resolution No. 04-454, which
amended Chapter VII~ Section I, of the Comprehensive' Plan to include the
following language: "At the discretion of City Council, areas with a Residential
Comprehensive Plan designation may request office uses. if the property has
frontage on an arterial street or a section line road and is 3 acres in size or less in
size. In this insta11ce, no anci1Iary commercial uses shall be permitted." City
Council finds that the subject property has frontage on an arterial street (Meridian
Road) and is less than 3 acres in size (1.06 acres). According to Resolution No.
04-0454. the subject parcel is eligible for an office usehone, if the Commission
and Council find the zoning is appropriate for this site.
City Council finds the following Goals, Objectives, and Action items contained in
the 2002 Comprehensive Plan to be applicable to this application (analysis is in
italics below policy):
· "Restrict curb cuts and access points on collectors and arterial streets."
(Chapter VII, Goal N1 Objective D, Action item 2)
On the submitted conceptual plan, the applicant is proposing direct access to
Meridian Road (SH 69). Other than Meridian Road, this site does not have
frontage on any public street. Citv Council recommends that access to the site
be orovided from Meridian Road on an interim basis on/v. See comments from
ITD and Special Considerations for fUrther analysis.
· "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors
(setback, vegetation, low walls, benns, etc.)." (Chapter VIIJ Goal IV,
Objective D, Action item 4)
Meridian Road is designated as an entryway corridor on the Comprehensive
Plan Future Land Use Map. By City Ordinance, a 35-foot wide landscape
buffer is required ac1jacent to Meridian Road (Mee 12-13-10-4). A landscape
buffer along Meridian Road will be required by the City with CZCICUP/Plat
'approval.
· "Require all commercial businesses to install and maintain landscaping."
(Chapter VJ Goal III, Objective D. Action item 5)
The applicant is not specifically proposing to install any landscaping with the
subject annexation application. In order to operate a commercial business on
this site, the applicant will be required to construct landscaping along
Meridian Road and the perimeter of the site with CZCICUP/Plat approval.
· "Permit new. . . commercial development only where urban services can be
reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is
contiguous to the City." (Chapter IV, Goal I, Obj. A; #6)
This parcel is contiguous to the city via the church-owned 30-acres on the
west side of Meridian Road. Sanitarv sewer and water are not available to
this varcel arthis time. However. City Council believes that services will be
available soon due to extensions of mains in connection with the Mussell
Corner development (northeast corner of Victory Road and Meridian Road).
The applicant will be required to connect to city services and run them to and
through at such time that they become available. Sizing and routing to be
coordinated with the City of Meridian Public Works department.
· "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the
Impact Area." (Chapter VII, Goall, Objective B)
City Council believes that the proposed zone, which allows office uses, does
contribute to the variety of uses in this area.
City Council finds that the new zonin~ to L-Q should be harmonious with and in
accordance with the Comorehensive Plan as amended bv Resolution No. 04-454.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
Concurrent with the annexation and zoning application, the applicant has
submitted a conceptual site plan. This site plan anticipates the conversion of the
existing residence to a professional office, The site plan does not however, depict
any future use for the remainder of the site (east), City Council does not anticipate
that the applicant plans to rezone the subject property ill the future if the subject
annexation/zoning is approved, as additional office uses may be allowed in the
requested L-O zone. Please see Finding "C".
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 cOlnmercial area by means of conditional use
permits;
City Council finds that a professional office on the western portion of this site
would be a permitted use within the requested L-Q zone. As mentioned above;
there is no proposed development plan for the remaining unimproved part of this
site (east). City Council recommends that prior to expansion of the existing
structure, or future development on this site, direct lot access to Meridian Road be
abandoned, .
D. Has there been a. change in the area or adjacent areas whi~h 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 fasMon similar to the proposed rezone area;
Surrounding uses currently include rural residential properties to the north and
west, a retail use to the south, and a vacant agricultural field to the west. As
mentioned in the-Surrounding Properties section ahove, there have been several
recent developments up and down Meridian Road, between Victory Road and
Overland Road. Some of these developments, Larkspur, Strada Bellissima, and
Southern Springs are anticipated to develop with some similar (office) uses.
Kuna-Meridian Road was recently widened to five lanes in this area by lTD.
Overland Road was recently widened to five lanes, east o(Meridian Road, by the
ACHD. Victory Road is not scheduled by the ACHD for any improvements in the
current Five Year Work Program or CIP. The intersection of Victory RoadlKuna-
Meridian Road is ranked #2 on the highway district's prioritization list and is
anticipated to be a signalized intersection in the near future.
Although no adjacent parcels have been developed in the City, City Council finds
that the proposed zoning is similar to other properties that have been
developed/zoned in the general area.
E. Will the proposed uses be designed, constructed, operate4 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
esseDtial character of the same area;
City Council finds that the proposed office zone/use will change the existing
character of the area, but that the proposed zone and future use(s) should be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the character of the overall area.
City Council finds that any future uses, if designed) constructed and operated in
accordance with adopted city ordinances, should be hannonious and appropriate
in appearance with the intended character of the vicinity (as amended by
Resolution No. 04-0454). Please see Finding "FU below for further analysis.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to.existing or futul'e
neighboring u.ses;
CommerciaVoffice vehicular access to this site could cause a potential
disturbanceJhazard to existing and/or future uses. ACHD and ITD consider access
points in their analysis of development applications. Although the subject
application is for annexation and zoning only) ITD has prepared a letter that
recommends restricting access to Meridian Road for this site. This letter notes that
access to this site does not meet fTO's spacing of approaches. However, because
the parcel is otherwise landlocked, interim access may be allowed if other access
is unavailable. City Council finds that if cross access between th.e subject property
and the properties to the north and south is provided, the proposed use (and
access) should not be hazardous to neighboring uses or traffic flows.
The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the properties to
the north, south and east of the subject property for low density residential use's. If
an office zone/use is approved for this site, City Council believes that the
properties to the-north and south (with frontage on Meridian Road) could also
request a non-residential zone/use in the future. If these adjacent property owners
were anticipating low density residential uses and an office use/zone is approved,
it may be considered disturbing to them. To allow for residential uses on the
adjacent properties~ as envisioned with the Comprehensive Plan, appropriate
landscape buffers will be required on the perimeter of this site) as there are
abutting uses (Single-family and vacant) that are less-intense than uses allowed in
the L-O zone (see MCC 12-13-12-4).
City Council fInds that the use of this site for professional office/clinic purposes
should not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the
applicant enters into a development agreement with the City and all development
and landscaping ordinances are exercised.
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 and water are not available to this parcel at this time. However,
City Council believes that services will be available soon due to extensions of
mains in connection with the Mussell Comer development (northeast comer of.
Victory Road and Meridian Road). The applicant will be required to CODnect to
city services and run them to and through at such time that they become available.
Sizing and routing to be coordinated with the City of Meridian Public Works
deparlment.
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 stonn water
drainage facilities.
ITO has sent recommendations to the City regarding access for this site. Please
review the ITD comments at the end of this report for detailed information
regarding this finding.
On March 11, 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, City Council finds that the public services listed above can
be made available to accommodate the proposed development.
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. Other
required site improvements will be funded and constructed by the developer
through the CZC/CUP/Subdivision approval process. The primary public costs to
serve the future patrons will be fire and police facilities and services. City Council
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
conununity'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, (lIntes, glare or odors;
If the subject annexation and zoning application is approved,' the applicant intends
to convert the existing residence to a professional office. City Council finds that
any future uses on this site will generate additional traffic on adjacent roadways
above and beyond the existing residence. The level of impact will depend upon
the type of future use(s). City Council recognizes that traffic and noise will
increase with the approval of this developmentj however, do to the size of the site
(1.06 acres) City Council does not believe that the amount generated will be
detrimental to the general welfare oillie public.
The purpose of the L~O zone is to "pennit the establishment of groupings of
professional, research, executive, administrative, accounting, clerical,
stenographic, public service and similar uses. . . shall not involve heavy testing
operations of any kind or product manufacturing of such a nature to create noise,
vibration or emissions of a nature offensive to the overall puipose of this
District." (MCC 11-7-2.G) As such, City Council does not anticipate future uses
will create smoke, fumes, glare, or odors that will be de~mental to the general
welfare of persons or property in the area. City Council does not anticipate the
proposed annexation and subsequent use(s) will create excessive noise, smoke,
fumes, glare, or odors. City Council finds that the proposed office zonin&,use
should not be detrimental to people, property or the general welfare of the area.
MCC 11-16-4 provides the P&Z Commission and City Council the authority to
require a property owner to enter into a Development Agreement with the City of
Meridian that may require some written commitment for all future uses to more
fully comply with this finding, Due to the high probability for redevelopment of
the subject site, City Council believes that a Development Agreement is necessary
to ensure that the purpose of the L-O zone is maintained..
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shall be so
designed as not to create an intcl"ference with traffic on surrounding public
streets; "
The applicant is conceptually proposing to construct one new driveway to
Meridian Road. This driveway is located near the north property line, ITD has
submitted a letter to the City stating that their policy for access to a Type IV
Principal Arterial (SH 69) will be at intersections only, and spaced at one~half
mile intervals in urban areas. ITD allows approaches (other than intersections) in
special cases and on a temporary basis. ITD's policy on approaches lessens the
ability of driveways to create interference on the roadways. The conceptually
proposed driveway to SH 69 for this site does not conform to ITD's policy listed
above for approaches on a Type IV roadw~y.
Currently SH 69 has a posted speed limit of 55 MPH. Vehicles leaving this site
from the proposed access point will be attempting to merge with, or cross, traffic
that is going extremely fast. However, this parcel only has frontage On Meridian
Road; it is otheIWise landlocked. To obtain an access pennit to Meridian Road
from ITO for a commercial/office use, the applicant will be required to provide
cross access to the adjacent parcels (north and south) and the access will be
allowed on a interim basis (until alternate access can be provided).
Because there is currently a center turn lane on Meridian Road abutting tbis site;
the anticipated office use will not be a significant traffic generator, and; the access
will be temporary, City C0U11CiI believes that the access point will not create
significant traffic interference. Further, City Council finds that the least amount of
interference to traffic on the surrounding public streets will occur if cross access
between the subject property and the properties to the north and south are
provided, and the proposed access point is removed once an alternate
ingress/egress point is provided.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a naturaL or scenic
feature of major importance; and
City Council is unaware of any natural of scenic features of major importance on
this site and finds that no natural or scenic features of major importance will be
lost or damaged by approving the annexation and zoning application. Any
existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed shall he. mitigated for, per
the Landscape Ordinance.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord.592, 11-17-1992)"
There have been several recent developments in this area, none have occurred
adjacent to this site. If a non-residential use is approved for this site, City COlUlcil
anticipates the properties to the north and south may also develop with non-
residential/office uses and not low-density uses as envisioned with the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. NOTE: City Council has included
Development Agreement stipulations for annexation and zoning of this property.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
GENERAL
J-U-B shall provide for the CLIENT professional Services as set forth herein. The Services will be performed in accordance with generally
accepted professional practices for the intended use of the Project. J.U -B MAKES NO OTH E R WAR RANTY EITH ER EXP R ESSED OR 1M PLIED. The
CLIENT acknowledges and agrees that legal requirements governing the Project may be subiect to various and possibly contradictory interpretations;
and, J-U-B will therefore use its reasonable professional efforts and judgment to interpret such requirements.
J-U-B shall not be responsible for acts oromissions of any party involved in the Project other than their own, including but notlimited to failure
of a third party to follow J-U-B's recommendations; the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction selected by CLIENT or
third parties; safety programs and precautions selected by third parties; compliance with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes, orders or authority
by CLIENT and third parties; and any contact or action of the CLIENT or others with third parties. CLIENT therefore indemnifies and holds J-U-B
harmless from the actions and omissions of CLIENT and third parties involved in the Project.
J-U-B shall not be required to sign any documents, no matter by whom requested, that would result in J-U-B's having to certify, guarantee or
warrant the existence of conditions whose existence J-U-B cannot ascertain. The CLIENT also agrees not to make resolution of any dispute with J-U-B
or payment of any amount due to J-U-B in any way contingent upon J-U-B signing any such certification.
In soil investigation work and in determining subsurface conditions forthe Project, the characteristics may vary greatly between successive test
points and sample intervals. J-U-B will coordinate this work in accordance with generally accepted practice of the professional Services being provided
and makes NO OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, or as to the professional advice furnished by others.
Resetting of survey and/or construction stakes shall constitute Additional Services.
CONSTRUCTION PHASE SERVICES
Unless otherwise agreed, J-U-B's Services under this Agreement will be considered to be complete and final upon completion of the Services
described herein. Unless otherwise agreed, it is understood and agreed that J-U-B's Services under this Agreement do not include Project observation,
review of the contractor's performance, or any other construction phase services, and the CLIENT assumes all responsibility for interpretation of the
documents associated with the Project and fo r construction observation or review, and i ndem nifies J-U-B from and waives any claims against J -U-B that
may be in any way connected thereto or arise therefrom.
It is further understood and agreed that J-U-B does not have control over, and neither the professional activities of J-U-B nor the presence of
J-U-B at the Project site shall give J-U-B control over contractor(s) work nor shall J-U-B have authority over or responsibility for the means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures of construction selected by co ntractor(s) , for safety precautions and programs incident to the work of the
contractor(s) or for any failure of contractor(s) to comply with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes or orders applicable to contractor(s) furnishing
and performing their work or providing any health and safety precautions required by any regulatory agencies. Accordingly, J-U-B can neither guarantee
the performance of the construction contracts by contractor(s) nor assume responsibility of contactor(s) failure to furnish and perform their work in
accordance with the contract documents.
The CLIENT agrees that the general contractor shall be solely responsible for jobsite safety, and warrants thatthis intent shall be carried out in
the CLIENT's contract with the general contractor. The CLIENT also agrees thatthe CLIENT, J-U-B and J-U-B's subconsultants shall be indemnified by
the general contractor in the event of general contractor's failure to assure jobsite safety and shall be made additional insureds under the general
contractor's policies of general liability insurance.
OPINIONS OF COST
Since J-U-B has no control over the cost of labor, materials, equipment or services furnished by others, or over the contractor(s)' methods of
determining prices, or over competitive bidding or market conditions, J-U-B's opinions of probable total Project costs and construction, if any, are to be
made on the basis of J-U-B's experience and qualifications, and represent J-U-B's best judgment as an experienced and qualified professional engineer,
familiar with the construction industry; but J-U-B cannot and does not guarantee that proposals, bids or actual total project or construction costs will not
vary from opinions of probable cost prepared by J-U-B. If the CLIENT wishes greater assurance as to total project or construction costs, CLIENT shall
employ an independent cost estimator. J-U-B's services to modify the Project to bring the construction costs within any limitation established by the
CLIENT will be considered Additional Services and paid for as such by the CLIENT.
REUSE OF DOCUMENTS
AI I docume nts and magnetic media and other communication or information form ats ("Documents"), prepared or furnished by J-U-B pursuant to
this Agreement are instruments of service with respect to the Project and shall remain the property of J-U-B whether or not the Project is completed.
Although CLIENT may make and retain copies of Documents for information and reference in connection with use on the Project by CLIENT, J-U-B shall
retain all common law, statutory and other reserved rights, including the copyright thereto, and the same shall not be reused without J-U-B's written
consent. Any reuse without written consent by J-U-B, or without verification or adoption by J-U-B for the specific purpose intended by the reuse, will be at
CLIENT's sole risk and without liability or legal exposure to J-U-B. The CLIENT shall indemnify and hold J-U-B harmless from any claims, damages,
losses and expenses arising out of or resulting from such reuse.
Copies of Documents that may be relied upon by CLIENT are limited to the printed copies (also know as hard copies) that are signed or sealed
by J-U-B. Files in electronic media format of text, data, graphics, or of other types that are furnished by J-U-B to CLIENT are only for convenience of
CLIENT. Any conclusion or information obtained or derived from such electronic files will be at the user's sole risk.
Because data stored in electronic media format can deteriorate or be modified inadvertently or otherwise without authorization of the data's
creator, the CLI ENT agrees that it will perform acceptance tests or procedures within 60 days, after which the CLIENT shall be deemed to have accepted
the data thus transferred. Any errors detected within the GO-day acceptance period will be corrected by J-U-B. J-U-B shall not be responsible to maintain
documents stored in electronic media format after acceptance by CLIENT.
When transferring documents in electronic media format, J-U-B makes no representations as to long term compatibility, usability, or readability
of documents resulting from the use of software application packages, operating systems, or computer hardware differing from those used by J-U-B at
the beginning of this Project.
TIMES OF PAYMENTS
J-U-B shall submit monthly statements for Services rendered and for expenses incurred, which statements are due on presentation. CLIENT
shall make prompt monthly payments. If CLIENT fails to make any payment in full within ten (10) days after receipt of J-U-B's statement, the amounts
due J-U-B will accrue interest at the rate of 1 % per month from said tenth day. If the CLIENT fails to make payments when due or otherwise is in breach
of this Agreement, J-U-B may suspend performance of Services upon five (5) days notice to the CLIENT. J-U-B shall have no liability whatsoever to the
CLIENT for any costs or damages as a result of such suspension caused by any breach of the Agreement by the CLIENT. Upon cure of breach or
payment in full by the CLIENT within thirty (30) days of the date breach occurred or payment is due, J-U-B shall resume Services under the Agreement,
and the time schedule and compensation shall be equitably adjusted to compensate for the period of suspension plus any other reasonable time and
expense necessary for J-U-B to resume performance. If the CLIENT fails to make payment as provided herein within thirty (30) days after suspension of
Services, such failure shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall be cause for termination of this Agreement by J-U-B.
TERMINATION
roe obligation to provide further Services under the Agreement may be terminated by either party upon thirty (30) days written notice in the
event of substantial failure by the other party to perform in accordance with the terms hereof through no fault of the terminating party. If this Agreement is
terminated by either party, J-U-B will be paid for Services rendered and for expenses incurred to the date of such termination, plus an allowance for
demobilization costs as determined by J-U-B. Such demobilization costs shall be the cost and expense J-U-B incurs in withdrawing its labor and
resources from the Project, and obtaining and engaging in a new project with the labor and resources withdrawn from the Project.
RISK ALLOCATION
The CLIENT is aware of the risks, rewards, and benefits of the Project and J-U-B's total fee for services. The risks are hereby allocated such

Re: Meridian Fire Station No. Four - South Eagle Road
Meridian, Idaho
ZGA Job No. 0427.00
Dear Rich,
Good moming. Attached find the following documents:
1. Original bid proposals from five (5) submitting contractors (l each)_
2. Proposal Summary Recording Sheet (10 copies).
The bids ale summarized as follows:
Contractor Base Bid Alternate #1 Total
EKC Construction, Inc. $1,025,991 $29,958 $1,055,949
Perkins Construction Inc. $1,054,000 $39,400 $1,093,400
RSCI $1,017,674 $33,134 $1,050,808
Don Young.Q9I!$j~_~.S_upply, Inc. $1,028,145 $_3..~,.~QQ._.. .~.L061,445
Valley Design & Construction, Inc. $1,058,000 $33,900 $1,091,900
We have examined all five (5) proposals for completeness and compliance
with the bidding and contract documents. In our professional opinion it
appears that all proposals are responsive and that the apparent low bidder
is:
RSCI
1854 East Lanark St.
Meridian, Idaho 83642
Based upon the design documents ZGA's estimate of probable
construction cost for <<bricks and mortar" (exclusive of costs for land,
architect/engineer fees, and furniture fixtures and equipment) was in the
range of $725,000 - $983,000. We believe the bids received yesterday
reflect the impacts of bidding at this time of the year, an overhe.ated
construction environment in the valley, market place impacts on materials
such as cement, dryvrall, steel, fuel and equipment costs. and a 1.68 acre
site which is 32,260 sq. ft. larger than your previous site at Locust Grove.
Depending on the availability of funds we are recommend.illg that the
Meridian Rural Fire Protection District award the contract for oonstruction
JUL 08 '05 12: 07

Mr. Rich Greene, Chairman

of the referenced project to RSCr in the amount of the base bid of
$1,017,674 and altemate number one in the amount of$33,134 for a total
contract price of $1,050,808. It is our Wlderstanding that the City of
Meridian will reimburse the District for the cost of alternate -number one,
the development of the City's fonnerwell site.
If this meets with your approval we will draft the following documents for
your use:
1. Notice of AW3rd.
2. Notice to Progeed.

Subject: Morning Dove Subdivision
Brad,
Attached is a PDF of the site we are looking at located north of Colombia Road, approx 1/3 mile west of Cloverdale at the
very southeast corner ofthe City of Meridian's referral area. Our client has also just purchased the property located
between this site and Cloverdale road which lies within the Boise City area of impact. To the west of this site is Vantage
Point Subdivision and to the east is the land our client just purchased as well as the Umpqua Subdivision which is in the
Boise City Impact Area. To the northeast is the Boise Ranch Golf Course.
We have previously done a feasibility study on the piece of land that our client just purchased at the northwest corner of
Cloverdate and Colombia and there is sewer and water available to that site. Based upon our findings there, we assume
with pretty high confidence that there would be sewer and water available for the site up on the hill as well. Because there
is water and sewer right there, the best route for our client would be to go that route as he does not want to wait until the
City of Meridian eventually brings sewer and water out that far, which could be quite a while as you are well aware.
I will be gone next week so if we could meet by this Friday I would appreciate it. I am fairly open as far as times to meet
right now so just let me know when you can. )fyou have any questions on this, please let me know. Thank you.

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 11-15-1 I:
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. Staff finds that the requested zoning designation, R-8, is harmonious with
and in accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map,
which designates the land to be "Medium Density Residential". The 3.84 dwelling
units per acre proposed with the preliminary plat are consistent with previous
Commission and Council actions and generally conform to the goals, objectives,
and action items contained in the Comprehensive Plan for this area. In addition, in
the applicant's cover letter (dated January 15, 2005) lists several Comprehensive
Plan policies, all of which support the annexation and proposed residential use of
the property.
Staff finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be applicable
to this application (staff analysis is in italics below policy):
After evaluating the original preliminary plat submittal and the Comprehensive
Plan policies regarding hazardous use (floodplain), multi-use pathway, and
preservation of natural features areas, staff discussed with the applicants agent
the portion of the site within the floodplain and along the Ridenbaugh Canal, the
Eight-Mile Drain and Ten-Mile Drain designated for multi-use pathways. Staff
expressed concerns that the proposal does not conform to the purpose statement
of the natural ftatures goals and policies and staff cannot make the findings to
recommend approval based on the following:
Chapter V A.2 P30 - Hazardous Areas - The purpose of the floodplain District is
to guide development in the flood-prone areas of any watercourse that is
consistent with the requirements for the conveyance of flood flows and to
minimize the expense and inconveniences to the individual property owners and
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
the general public through flooding. Uses permitted in this district are generally
associated with open space, recreational, and agricultural land uses and do not
hinder the movement of floodwaters.
The applicant has submitted a letter from Paul Kunz indicating that the
applicant has made the first indications of filing for a Letter of Map Revision
to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The letter indicates that if the
farm access roads are removed then the 1 OO-year floods would be contained
within the banks ofTen-Mile Creek.
Similarly to the existing floodplain there are two primary soils located onsite
as defined by the geotechnical report. As reported both soils types are prone
to flooding with seasonal high groundwater levels at 1.5-5 feet below grade.
The engineering reports indicate that water in the crawl spaces is to be
expected and shallow groundwater is a concern for construction across the
site. Dewatering of the site is expected and a dewatering program was
recommended by the geotechnical engineer.
The submitted plan has seventy (70) lots proposed in the current floodplain
designation. All homes are expected to have moderate to severe groundwater
problems. The seasonal high groundwater levels are calculated as the
average depth to water during peak seasons; however actual high
groundwater levels at this site are expected to be at grade if a dewatering
program is not instituted.
The applicant has submitted a letter from John Anderson, of Nampa Meridian
Irrigation District addressing usage along major canal systems. Stafffeels the
revision dated April 26, 2005 adequately addresses the relocation of the
multi-use pathways west of Ten-Mile Creek. However, the NMID letter
supports staff's original recommendation that additional open space lots
should be placed along the Ten-Mile Creek and Ridenbaugh Canal east of the
Ten-Mile Creek to provide additional buffer to these major features of
concern in the intersection of the two major waterways. Staff feels that the
dedication of Lot 18, Block 10 to the Nampa Meridian Irrigation District is
appropriate to mitigate the anticipated residential impacts west of the Ten-
Mile Creek as long as a pathways connection is made from Bellingham Park
Subdivision to the east along the Ridenbaugh Canal.
Staff feels that the relocation of parks, pathways and drainage lots in relation
to the high ground water would be the most beneficial to future owners. Past
approvals of subdivisions with potential for groundwater in crawls paces has
created a concern for the health/safety and welfare of future owners. The
overall design of subdivisions helps mitigate these future problems.
Chapter VI C.2 P71 - Multiuse pathways: Pathways that encourage use by
bicyclists and pedestrians can decrease road congestion and add to the
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
community's quality of life. The proposed off-street and multiuse pathway
systems are depicted in Figures VI-3 and VI-4. New and existing developments
should ensure that the guidelines laid out in this plan are adopted.
With the redesign of the subdivision the applicant has included multiuse
pathways proposed in this development. The Comprehensive Plan indicates
in Figures VI -3 and VI-4 the locations of pathways along the Ridenbaugh
Canal, Eight Mile Creek, and Ten-Mile Creek.
In response to the Nampa Meridian Irrigation District letter indicating the
need to have all pathways located away from the interchange of the Ten-Mile
Creek and the Ridenbaugh Canal, the applicant has proposed an alternate
route for the pathway. Staff supports the pathway system in these locations
providing connection to Locust Grove Road, near the intersection with the
Ridenbaugh Canal. With the relocation of the pathways away from the canal
systems the applicant has also proposed a more intensive use closer to the
irrigation interchange than a pathway.
Staff proposes that the applicant construct multi use pathways similar to
Tuscany Lakes and Messina Hills Subdivision north of the property. These
developments placed the pathways in cooperation with the Comprehensive
Plan along the Eight and Ten Mile drains, utilizing the streets systems for
canal/creek crossings and creating open space lots to buffer the irrigation
system from new development. The Multiuse pathway should be continued in
the following locations:
Staff feels that the open space lot should be continued along the east side of
Ten-Mile Creek to provide a connection through the open space from the
south of the development along Ten-Mile Creek to the connection with the
Ridenbaugh Canal and future connection with Tuscany Lakes and Messina
Hills Subdivisions.
The following goals and policies support the request for additional open
space along natural resources:
· "Preserve and conserve our waterways, wetlands, wildlife habitat, and
other natural resources."(Chapter V, Goal I, Objective AI)
· "Preserve open space for recreation conservation and aesthetics" (Chapter
V, Goal I, Objective A2)
· "Identify waterways, wetlands, and other natural resources for
preservation" (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action item 1)
· "Identify feasible interconnected greenbelt areas along waterways,
railroads, etc." (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action item 2)
· "Develop and maintain greenbelts along waterways" (Chapter V, Goal I,
Objective A, Action item 4)
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
· "hnprove and protect creeks (Five Mile, Eight Mile, Nine Mile, Ten Mile,
South Slough, and Jackson and Evans drainages) throughout commercial,
industrial, and residential areas" (Chapter V, Goal I, Objective A, Action
item 11)
Staff also finds the following 2002 Comprehensive Plan text policies to be
applicable to this application (staff analysis is in italics below policy):
· "Require appropriate landscape and buffers along transportation corridors
(setback, vegetation, low walls, berms, etc.)." (Chapter VII, Goal IV,
Objective D, Action item 4)
As depicted on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map, the applicant
is proposing to construct a 25-foot wide landscape berm with dense
vegetation along Locust Grove Road. Staff is supportive of these widths, as
long as the entire buffer lies outside the ultimate right-o.fway, and the
sidewalk is located outside of the 25-foot wide buffer (or increase buffer to
40-feet). See Site Specific Condition #5 in the Preliminary Plat section below.
· "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, #3)
This publication encourages jurisdictions to establish bikeway and walkway
facilities in !Jew construction and reconstruction projects, in a manner that is
safe, accessible and convenient.
· "On-street bikeways should be incorporated on all future Collector streets."
(Chapter VI, Figure VI-5)
Figure VI-5 on page 57 of the Comprehensive Plan designates an on-street
bikeway mid-mile between Victory Road and Amity Road. The applicant is
proposing a 36-foot street section for Wrightwood Dr (collector). The
applicant has not proposed an onstreet bike path for Locust Grove road
between Victory and Amity but the addition of a 10-foot gravel shoulder for
future expansions should accommodate bike lanes.
A portion of the site located south of Wrightwood Drive and on either side of
Mitman Ave is in the Low Density Residential Comprehensive Designation. In
Chapter VII of the Comprehensive Plan, 'Low density' is defined as areas
including single-family homes at densities of three dwelling units or less ner acre.
The applicant is requesting that all the subject site be zoned R-8 (Medium Density
Residential). The R-8 district allows for a maximum of eight (8) dwelling units
per acre (MCC11-7-2.C), however the design more closely resembles an R-4
development. The applicant's requested design provides for larger lots consistent
with a lower density transitional area.
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
The comprehensive plan states on Page 104) Objective D- Plan for appropriate
uses within rural areas: "Require new urban density subdivisions which abut or
are proximal to existing low density residential land uses to provide landscaped
screening or transitional densities with larger, more comparable lot sizes to
buffer the inteiface between urban level densities and rural residential densities. "
Terrier Subdivision is located immediately south of the property with three lots of
approximately five acres each and is classified as low density residential. Lots 1-
6 and Lot 8 of Block 1 and Lots 1-2 of Block 7 have a calculated residential
density of 2.99 dwelling units to the acre or (7 residential lots I 2.34 acres) which
is consistent with the maximum allowance within the Low Density Residential
Designation.
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 the proposed zone and subsequent development
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;
Concurrent with the annexation and zoning application, the applicant has
submitted a preliminary plat and conditional use permit proposing single-family
lots on the subject site (PP-05-004 & CUP-05-004). Staff does not anticipate that
the applicant plans to rezone the subject property in the future if the
accompanying CUP/PD and PP applications are approved.
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 existing proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff does not
anticipate commercial or other uses are planned for the site.
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 a substantial portion of the land to the north and east has been
developed (or approved for development) in a manner similar to the proposed
subdivision, with single-family dwelling units. Tuscany Lakes Subdivision to the
north was approved with a gross density of 2.34 dwelling units per acre and a
school site. Tuscany Lakes Subdivision is an R-4 subdivision with the lot range
from 10)000 square feet to 30,000 square feet. Neighboring Ada County
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
Developments are in the 1 acre to 5 acre size range. This development is
proposing significantly smaller lots, but within the acceptable limits for a medium
density development bordering a low density residential area.
There have been no recent street improvements in the area. Further, Locust Grove
Road is not currently scheduled within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or
Capital hnprovements Plan (CIP) for roadway widening.
A portion of this development is cun"ently not serviceable by the City of
Meridian's sanitary sewer system. Phase one of this development is eligible to
sewer to an existing main located in Locust Grove road. The remainder of this
development is planned to sewer via the future 24" service line to be run under
the Ridenbaugh Canal and through Tuscany Lakes upon build out. Staff
anticipates the sewer line to be in the near vicinity prior to development of this
proposal. Other urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the
applicant should be able to extend such services to the site. Staff finds that the
subject site is denser than surrounding proposals and provides a housing type
which has not been utilized in the immediate vicinity (Blocks 2-3). The overall
proposal is consistent for development in a fashion similar to other properties 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 has submitted several front elevations for the proposed single-
family homes. If the homes are constructed in substantial compliance with the
submitted elevations, they will be similar in design to other residences in the area.
The existing character of the area will, and is, currently changing. However, this
is the first development to apply for approval south of the Ridenbaugh Canal. This
development will set the tone for how the rest of this area, particularly the south,
develops or does not develop and how those developments deal with high
groundwater issues that prevail in this area. Similar developments in the near
vicinity have already experienced high groundwater along the Ten Mile Creek
and Ridenbaugh Canal.
The proposed homes must be designed, constructed, and maintained in significant
compliance to the recommendations as listed by the Geotechnical experts report
and with the conditions imposed by this report. The houses must be designed in a
fashion as to not allow any groundwater to enter the crawlspaces, otherwise the
housing products should be constructed without crawlspaces.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
Due to other existing and proposed uses near the site, staff does not anticipate that
the proposed zoning/uses will be physically hazardous to future or existing uses or
neighbors in the area. The one exception may be with regard to the floodplain.
The floodplain must be engineered as to not hinder any floodwaters leaving the
site. If a flood event occurs and buildings impact the flow of water downstream
then the use may become hazardous to the neighboring properties.
The applicant should institute a dewatering plan to mitigate high groundwater
issues as dictated by the Geotechnical Report. Staff has required a dewatering
plan as a condition of approval.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on staff analysis,
comments from other agencies, and public testimony to determine whether the
proposed use will be disturbing or hazardous to the existing neighboring uses and
future expected uses in this vicinity.
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;
A portion of this development is currently not serviceable by the City of
Meridian's sanitary sewer system. Phase one ofthis development is eligible to
sewer to an existing main located in Locust Grove road. The remainder of this
development is planned to sewer via the future 24" service line to be run under
the Ridenbaugh Canal and tlrrough Tuscany Lakes upon build out. Staff
anticipates the sewer line to be in the near vicinity prior to development of this
proposal. Other urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the
applicant should be able to extend such services to the site. Water to serve this
development is existing or currently under development with Tuscany Lakes
Subdivision. The applicant shall be responsible for the extension of utilities to and
tlrrough 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 as well as construct on-site storm water drainage facilities.
Based on the comments received from other 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;
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
If approved, the developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, public
street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents will be fire, police, school
facilities and services. Staff finds there will not be excessive additional
requirements at public cost and this development will not be detrimental to the
economic welfare of the community.
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 recognizes that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of a
development on this site; however, staff does not believe that the amount
generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Staff does not
anticipate that annexation and development in accordance with current city code
and the Comprehensive Plan will create excessive noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or
odors. Staff finds that if open space Lot 13, Block 12, were to develop in a similar
fashion to Tuscany Lakes subdivision then the open space would help to facilitate
the pedestrian traffic from the subdivision to surrounding uses.
Fencing along all canals and waterways shall be a minimum of 6' in height and
constructed of non-combustible materials as to not interfere with regular
maintenance of ~itches and waterways by Nampa Meridian Irrigation District.
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 entrance into the site
from Locust Grove Road and provide future public street connection to the site
from Amity Road and through to Eagle Road. The proposed public street entrance
to Locust Grove Road has been proposed to ACHD. If all vehicular approaches
(streets) are approved and constructed in accordance with ACHD policies, staff
does not believe that the subdivision will create interference with traffic on the
surrounding public streets. Please review any comments from ACHD for this
project for additional information regarding this finding.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature of major importance; and
The comprehensive plan defines the Ten-Mile Creek as a natural feature of
importance. As described in the Annexation and Zoning Analysis A. The
applicant should make all attempts at preservation of this natural feature. There
Exhibit G - Bellingham Park
are many game species in the vicinity which utilize the drainage systems for
habitat.
Any existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed should be mitigated for,
per the Landscape Ordinance.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council reference any public
testimony that may be presented to determine whether or not the proposed
development may result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic
feature(s) of 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)?
In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that the
annexation/zoning of this property, as proposed by the applicant, would be in the
best interest of the City.

PP-05-009
Preliminary Plat Findings
Sections 12-3-31.2 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:
A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A" above.
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
Please see Annexation and Zoning Analysis "G" above.
C. The continuity of the proposed development with the capital improvement
program;
Because the developer will be required to install sewer, water, and utilities for the
development at their cost, staff finds that a development on this property will not
require the exp~nditure of capital improvement funds.
D. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
The development will not require major expenditures for providing supporting
services. Staff recommends the Commission and Council rely upon comments
submitted 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.
Staff finds that there should not be any health, safety or environmental problems
associated with this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor
Commission's attention; other than the floodway and groundwater issues
previously discussed, no hazardous natural features have been identified on the
site. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis. Staff finds the
Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony that may be
presented to determine whether the proposed use may cause health, safety or
environmental problems of which staff are aware.
Exhibit H - Bellingham Park
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS-PRELIMINARY PLAT
1. Public Streets and Access: The applicant is proposing to construct through roads
(Wrightwood Drive) connecting Locust Grove Drive with future projects to the
east and south. Wrightwood Drive to Highcliff Avenue is shown as a 36-foot wide
street will serve as the collector street in this area and will provide access to
Locust Grove Road for all parcels in this section. Staff is supportive of the
proposed design, as it will provide access to future development across Ten Mile
Creek for all parcels in this section.
2. Ril!ht-of-wav & Landscaoe Buffers:
Arterial Streets: Staff reconunends that the applicant be required to comply with
the ACHD's requirements for right-of-way dedication along Locust Grove Road.
Landscaping and sidewalks adjacent to Locust Grove Road should be constructed
in compliance with MCC 12-13-10. A 25-foot wide landscape buffer, located
entirely outside of the right-of-way and not including the width of the sidewalk,
should be provided along Locust Grove Road. See Site Specific Condition #5
below.
3. Stub Streets: The applicant is proposing to construct stub streets to adjacent
parcels east and south ofthe site. Staffis supportive ofthe proposed stub street
locations.
4. Unimproved Rie:ht-of-Way: Meridian City Code 12-13-10-9 requires a lO-foot
wide gravel shoulder abutting right-of-way where the unimproved portion of the
right-of-way is greater than 13 feet (measured from the edge of pavement to the
edge of sidewalk or property line), and road widening is not in the ACHD Five
Year Work Program. The remainder of the unimproved right-of-way should be
landscaped with lawn or other vegetative groundcover. Locust Grove Road
abutting this site meets the warrants for the lO-foot wide gravel shoulder
requirement listed above. Therefore, the applicant should be required to construct
a 10-foot wide gravel shoulder on Locust Grove Road, with the remaining portion
of the right-of-way being landscaped with lawn or other vegetative groundcover.
See Site Specific Condition #5 below.
5. Internal Streets: The applicant is proposing to construct all internal streets with a
36-foot street section with 5-foot wide detached attached sidewalks with drainage
swales. The entire street, including the sidewalk, is contained within the ACHD
right-of-way. Staff is supportive of this design. To keep cars that park in front of
garages from blocking the sidewalk, all future face-of-garage setbacks should be
20-feet (measured from the property line or the back of sidewalk, whichever is
more restrictive). See Site Specific Condition #3 below.
6. Micro-oaths: Staff recommends that a micro-path connections be provided as
depicted as closely as possible according to the Comprehensive Plan. There are
three distinct natural features in this area that are potential locations for multi-use
Exhibit H - Bellingham Park
pathways. The Ridenbaugh Canal running east to west, The Eight Mile Creek
from the northeast and connecting to the Ridenbaugh Trail, and the Ten Mile Trail
Way connecting the northwest to future developments south of the City of
Meridian. This recommendation will allow greater pedestrian access to the parks
located in from the south. See Site Specific Condition #6 below.
7. Piping of Ditches: All irrigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of natural
waterways, intersecting, crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the area
being subdivided shall be tiled per MCC 12-4-13. Unless otherwise approved by
Nampa and Meridian Irrigation District. Plans will need to be approved by the
appropriate irrigation/drainage district, or lateral users association (ditch owners),
with written approval or non-approval submitted to the Public Works Department.
If lateral users association approval cannot be obtained, plans will be reviewed
and approved by the City Engineer prior to final plat signature. See Site Specific
Condition #8 below.
8. Pressure Irrieation: 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 use 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 used, the developer shall 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.
9. Fencing: The applicant has not proposed to construct any fencing around the
perimeter of the site. Fencing along all canals and waterways shall be a minimum
of 6' in height and constructed of non-combustible materials as to not interfere
with regular maintenance of ditches and waterways by N ampa Meridian Irrigation
District. A detailed fencing plan should be submitted upon application of the final
plat (MCC 12-4-10.F.3). Ifpermanent 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. See Site Specific Condition #10 below.
10. Sanitary Sewer The entire development is currently not serviceable by the City of
Meridian's sanitary sewer system. Phase 1 will be served by a connection in the
Locust Grove Right of way, while sewer service for the western phases of the
development will be via the future main located along Ten Mile Creek, through
Tuscany Subdivision and piped under the Ridenbaugh Canal. See Site Specific
Condition #12 below.

CONDITIONAL USE ANALYSIS
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 Imd 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;
As part of the Planned Development (PD) the applicant is requesting relief from
the standard street frontage requirement and lot size requirement and standard
setbacks, as required by Meridian City Code. See Special Consideration #1 below
for detailed analysis.
Staff finds that the subject property is large enough to accommodate the requested
use and all other required features. Although the site is large enough to
accommodate all of the features required by ordinance, the applicant has asked,
through the Planned Development, to modify specific development standards.
Staff recommends that not all requirements be waived as requested. See Special
Consideration #1 below for detailed analysis.
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;
Staff finds that the proposed single-family residential subdivision, with a gross
density of3.84 dwelling units per acre, is generally harmonious with and in
accordance with the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, which
designates the site to be "Medium Density Residential" and "Low Density
Residential" (provided the Commission and Council grant the requested planned
development). Please see Annexation & Zoning Analysis "A" above.
C. That the design, construction, operation, and maintenance will be compatible
Exhibit [ - Bellingham Park
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 Annexation & Zoning Analysis "E" above.
D. That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of the approval
imposed, will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity;
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely upon public testimony,
staff's analysis, and other agency COlllinents when determining if the proposed
uses will adversely affect other properties in the vicinity.
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 Annexation & Zoning Analysis "G" and "H" above, the "Other
Agency/Department Comments and Conditions" at the end ofthis report, and any
comments that may be submitted to the City Clerk regarding this project.
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 Annexation & Zoning Analysis "R" above.
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 Annexation and Zoning Analysis ")" above.
H. That the proposed use will have vehicular approaches to the property which
shall be so designed as not to create an interference with traffic on
surrounding public streets;
Please see Annexation & Zoning Analysis "J" above. The Commission and
Council should review any comments received from the ACHD provide for this
project when determining this finding.
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.
Exhibit 1- Bellingham Park
Please see Annexation & Zoning Analysis "K" above.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS-CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. Reduced Standards: As stated earlier, the applicant is requesting modifications
from standard ordinance requirements for street frontage and lot size.
Lot Size: The applicant has requested reduced lot sizes; the submitted preliminary
plat has lots below the 6,500 square-foot minimum size. Therefore, a modification
to the standard R-8 lot size of 6,500 square-feet is applicable. The proposed lot
sizes range from 4,860 square-feet to 14,290 square-feet.
Lot Frontal!e: The minimum requested street frontage is 36-feet. There are 144
lots that have between 36-feet and 64-feet of frontage (65-feet is the minimum for
the R-8 zone). Staff is supportive of reducing the frontage for some of the lots as
it provides lot diversity.
Setbacks: The applicant's submittal of 4/26/05 requests that this development not
be subject to any setback standards. Staff recommends that all setbacks for the R-
8 zone remain in place. Staff would recommend even greater setbacks for lots
along canals and waterways to help mitigate any NMID issues.
2. Amenities: MCC l2-6-2.A.3 requires two or more amenities to be provided as
part of each planned development. The proposed amenities for the subject planned
development include: a 2.8-acre open space lot and 5.03 acres of open space/park.
The proposed open space makes up 11 % of the site, 5% minimum is required and
it takes 10% to count open space as an amenity. However, parking for
soccer/softball has not been addressed by the applicant. On-street parking will be
limited adjacent to the 2.8-acre park, and if parking is provided on-site, that takes
away from the useable green area. The applicant is proposing parking for the
clubhouse located on Lot 10, Block 3. Staff has not seen a rendering of how the
clubhouse would be used and/or upgraded for public use. The applicant shall
submit for a building permit to change the occupancy of the single family
residence to address the new proposed use as an amenity. As proposed, staff does
believe that the proposed park areas provide sufficient amenities relative to the
size of the proposed development and the requested relief of development
standards. Landscaped open space means land exclusive of street rights-of-way
and street buffers, except for right-of-way specifically dedicated for landscaping
within a subdivision. The applicant states that the total open space areas account
for 5.03 acres (11.66%). which meets the open space definition in the PD
ordinance. No drainage lots, required street buffers, or canal buffers have been
included in this calculation.
Exhibit I - Bellingham Park
3. Elevations: The applicant has submitted several front elevation drawings for the
proposed dwelling units. Staff believes that the dwelling units will be compatible
with the adjoining uses, if the buildings are constructed as shown on the submitted
elevations. Construction within Bellingham Park Subdivision should substantially
comply with the elevations submitted by the applicant. Construction materials
used on the structures should be approved by the City of Meridian Building
Department and in accordance with the most recent Unifonn Building Code. See
Site Specific Condition #4 below.

Required Findings
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
Because the analysis below applies both to the proposed use and the proposed zoning, staff has
combined the analysis of use with the annexation and zoning 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."
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;
The subject property is currently designated 'Medium Density Residential' on the
2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The City recently approved
Resolution No. 04-0454, which amended Chapter VII, Section 1, of the
Comprehensive Plan to include the following language: "At the discretion of City
Council, areas with a Residential Comprehensive Plan designation may request
office uses if the property has frontage on an arterial street or a section line road
and is 3 acres in size or less in size." In this instance, no ancillary commercial
uses shall be pennitted." Staff finds that the subject property has frontage on an
arterial street Linder Road and is less than 3 acres in size (2.52 acres). According
to Resolution No. 04-0454, the subject parcel is eligible for an office use/zone, if
the Commission and Council find the zoning is appropriate for this site. Please see
the foUowing facts and circumstances and the Special Considerations below for
further analysis of the proposed zoning designation.
The following Goals, Objectives, and Action items contained in the 2002
Comprehensive Plan are applicable to this application:
· 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:
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.
· "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the
Impact Area." (Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective B)
The proposed zone, which allows office uses, does contribute to the variety of
uses in this area.
· Provide for non-exclusive residential zoning that allows for low-impact
neighborhood commercial areas to develop in residential districts. Develop
standards to regulate neighborhood commercial uses to minimize the impact
on the integrity of the residential district (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C,
Action 7).
The proposed development will be restricted to professional and medical
offices uses through a Development Agreement and the recent Comprehensive
Plan text amendment. The office uses will have a low-impact on the
surrounding properties and will not compromise the integrity of the
surrounding residential district. The project will take vehicular access from
N. Linder Road, . an arterial, and will not disrupt the nature or character of the
neighborhood.
· Require screening and landscape buffers on all development requests that are
more intense than adjacent residential properties (Chapter VII, Goal IV,
Objective C, Action 2).
The applicant will be required to provide land use buffirs between the existing
single-family residences and the proposed office uses, per Meridian City
Code.
City Council finds that the proposed L-O zoning designation is harmonious with
and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and the recent Comprehensive
Plan text amendment.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
City Council does not anticipate that the applicant plans to rezone the subject
property in the future if the accompanying PP application is approved.
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;
City Council finds that the proposed professional/medical office development is
allowed within the requested L-O zone. The uses of the property will be
restricted through a Development Agreement to those uses that are allowed by the
Comprehensive Plan text amendment.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas that 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;
There have been no recent street improvements in the area. N. Linder Road is not
currently scheduled within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or Capital
Improvements Plan (CIP) for roadway widening. Other urban services, such as
water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able to extend such services
to the site.
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 existing character of the area will, and is, currently changing. City Council
finds that the proposed L-O zoning and subsequent office use proposed with the
concurrent preliminary plat is harmonious and appropriate to the intended
character of the general vicinity. The applicant shall be required to execute a
Development Agreement with the City of Meridian to restrict hours of operation,
uses allowed, and the height of the structures. If this development is approved as
proposed and restrictions are placed on the property through a Development
Agreement, City Council finds that it will not significantly change existing
character of the area as noted on the Future Land Use Map in the Comprehensive
Plan.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
City Council finds that the use of this site for professional office/clinic purposes
should not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the
applicant enters into a development agreement with the City and if the
development complies with all development and landscaping ordinances.
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 an)' of such services;
Other urban services, such as water and sewer, are near this site and the applicant
should be able to extend such services to the site. The applicant shall be
responsible for the extension of utilities to and through this proposed
development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the Public Works
Department.
On May 13, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. The detailed comments
and conditions from the Fire Department, Police Department, and other
agencies/departments are at the end ofthis report.
This project approved at staff level by ACHD on May 3, 2005. City staff has
reviewed the report prepared by ACHD and agrees with the recommendations it
contains.
Based on the comments received from other agencies/departments, City Council
finds that the public services listed above can be made available to accommodate
the proposed development.
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 developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, utilities and
irrigation services to serve the project. The Plimary public costs to serve the
future residents will be fire, police, school facilities and services. City Council
finds there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost. City
Council does not anticipate that the annexation and zoning will 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;
City Council recognizes that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of a
development on this site; however, staff does not believe that the amount
generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Traffic
congestion is an ongoing issue for north Meridian, the resolution of which is
beyond the scope of this project. ACHD staff finds that the additional traffic
created by the project should not be excessive. City Council does not anticipate
that annexation and development in accordance with current city code and the
Comprehensive Plan will create excessive 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 entrance into the site from N. Linder
Road. If vehicular approaches are approved and constructed in accordance with
ACHD policy, City Council finds that the subdivision will not create interference
with traffic on the surrounding public streets.
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. Any existing
trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed should be mitigated for, per the
Landscape Ordinance.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)?
In accordance with the findings listed above, City Council finds that the
annexation/zoning of this property, as proposed by the applicant, is in the best
interest of the City.
PRELIMINARY PLAT ANALYSIS
Meridian City Code (MCC) 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:
A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
See Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A" above.
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
City Council finds that public services are or will be available to accommodate
the proposed development. See Annexation and Zoning Analysis "G" above.
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 a development on this property will not require the
expenditure of qapital improvement funds.
D. The public rmancial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
The development will not require major expenditures for providing supporting
services. (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.
City Council finds that there should not be any health, safety or environmental
problems associated with this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor
Commission's attention; no hazardous natural features have been identified on the
site. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis.

Redfish Subdivision
P & Z Hearing Date: June 2, 2005
Transmittal Date: May 26, 2005
Annexation and Zoning of 2.78 Acres from RUT (Ada County) to L-O (Limited
Office) for Redfish Subdivision, by Ben Miller (File No. AZ-05-021)
Preliminary Plat Approval of Five(5) building lots and Two (2) other lots on 2.521
acres in a proposed L-O Zone for Redfish Subdivision, by Ben Miller (File No. PP_
05-021)
We have reviewed the aforementioned applications and now offer the following as conditions of the
applicant. These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly modified or deleted by motion of the
Meridian City Council.
APPLICATION SUMMARY & BACKGROUND
The applicant, Ben Miller, has applied for Annexation and Zoning and Preliminary Plat approval offive (5)
office buildings on 2.52 acres (exclusive of right of way) in a proposed L-O (Limited Office) zone.
Combined, the five office buildings total approximately 21,000 square-feet of office floor space. The site is
located on the east side N. Linder Road, north of Ustick Road, and immediately north of Sawtooth Middle
School. This property is designated "Medium Density Residential" on the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Land
Use Map and currently contains an existing rural residence and associated accessory buildings.
The subject application was submitted to the Planning and Zoning Department for review. Staffhas provided
a detailed analysis and recommended conditions of approval for the requested conditional use permit
application below.. Staff is recommending approval of the application, with the conditions outlined in
this report.
CURRENT OWNERS OF RECORD
Ben Miller, the current property owner, has submitted notarized consent for the subject application.

LOCATION & SURROUNDING USES
The subject property is located on the east side ofN. Linder Road, approximately one half-mile north of
Ustick Road, in Section 36, Township 4 North, Range 1 West, B.M., Ada County, Idaho.
The following uses surround the subject property:
North - Baldwin Park Subdivision, zoned R-8.
South - Sawtooth Middle School, zoned R-4.
East - Baldwin Park Subdivision, zoned R-8.
West - N. Linder Road and Vacant land, zoned RUT (Ada County).
The residential properties to the north and east of this property developed without providing a stub street to
the subject property, and the property is limited to one point of access on Linder Road. This fact, combined
with the small size and shallow (east to west) configuration of the property, makes development of the
property as a residential project unfeasible. The subject property meets the criteria of the recent
Comprehensive Plan text amendment for office uses on arterial roads, and it is reasonable to assume that the
property would not redevelop under the Comprehensive Plan's designation of Medium Density Residential.
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
Because the analysis below applies both to the proposed use and the proposed zoning, staff has combined the analysis
of use with the annexation and zoning 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 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;
The subject property is currently designated 'Medium Density Residential' on the 2002
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The City recently approved Resolution No. 04-0454,
which amended Chapter VII, Section 1, of the Comprehensive Plan to include the following
language: "At the discretion of City Council, areas with a Residential Comprehensive Plan
designation may request office uses if the property has frontage on an arterial street or a section line
road and is 3 acres in size or less in size." In this instance, no ancillary commercial uses shall be
permitted." Staff finds that the subject property has frontage on an arterial street Linder Road and is
less than:; acres in size (2.52 acres). According to Resolution No. 04-0454, the subject parcel is
eligible for an office uselzone, if the Commission and Council find the zoning is appropriate for this
site. Please see the following facts and circumstances and the Special Considerations below for
further analysis of the proposed zoning designation.
Staff finds the following Goals, Objectives, and Action items contained in the 2002 Comprehensive
Plan to be applicable to this application (staff analysis is in italics below policy):
AZ-05-0l1, PP-OS-Oll
RedflSh.AZ, PP ,doc
Planning & Zoning Conunission/Mayor & City Council
Hearing Date: June 2, 2005
Page 3
· 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:
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 s~iffer 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.
· "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the Impact Area." (Chapter
VII, Goal I, Objective B)
Staff believes that the proposed zone, which allows office uses, does contribute to the variety
of use: in this area.
· Provide for non-exclusive residential zoning that allows for low-impact neighborhood
commercial areas to develop in residential districts. Develop standards to regulate neighborhood
commercial uses to minimize the impact on the integrity of the residential district (Chapter VII,
Goal IV, Objective C, Action 7).
The proposed development will be restricted to professional and medical offices uses through a
AZ.05-021, PP-05-021 Redfish.AZ.PP.doc
Planning & Zoning CommissionlMayor & City Council
Hearing Date: June 2, 2005
Page 4
Development Agreement and the recent Comprehensive Plan text amendment. The office uses
will have a low-impact on the surrounding properties and will not compromise the integrity of
the surrounding residential district. The project will take vehicular accessfrom N. Linder Road,
an arterial, and will not disrupt the nature or character of the neighborhood.
· Require screening and landscape buffers on all development requests that are more intense than
adjacent residential properties (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C, Action 2).
The applicant will be required to provide land use buffers between the existing single-family
residences and the proposed office uses, per Meridian City Code.
Staff finds that the proposed L-O zoning designation is harmonious with and in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan and the recent Comprehensive Plan text amendment.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the future;
Staff does not anticipate that the applicant plans to rezone the subject property in the future if the
accompanying PP application is approved.
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 the proposed professional/medical office development is allowed within the
requested L-O zone. The uses of the property will be restricted through a Development Agreement
to those uses that are allowed by the Comprehensive Plan text amendment.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas that 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;
There have been no recent street improvements in the area. N. Linder Road is not currently scheduled
within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) for roadway
widening. Other urban services, such as water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able to
extend such services to the site.
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 existing character of the area will, and is, currently changing. Staff finds that the proposed L-O
zoning and subsequent office use proposed with the concurrent preliminary plat is harmonious and
appropriate to the intended character of the general vicinity. Staff recommends that the applicant be
required to execute a Development Agreement with the City of Meridian to restrict hours of

operation, uses allowed, and the height of the structures. If this development is approved as
proposed and restrictions are placed on the property through a Development Agreement, staff finds
that it will not significantly change existing character of the area as noted on the Future Land Use
Map in the Comprehensive Plan.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses;
Staff finds that the use of this site for professional office/clinic purposes should not be hazardous or
disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the applicant enters into a development agreement
with the City and if the development complies with all development and landscaping ordinances.
Staff recommends that the Commission and Council rely on staff analysis, comments from other
agencies, and public testimony to determine whether the proposed use will be disturbing or
hazardous to the existing neighboring uses and future planned uses in this vicinity.
G. Will the area be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as highways,
streets, police and lire 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;
Other urban services, such as water and sewer, are near this site and the applicant should be able to
extend such services to the site. The applicant shall be responsible for the extension of utilities to
and through this proposed development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the Public
Works Department.
On May 13, 2005, a j oint agency/department comments meeting was held with representatives of key
service providers to this property. The detailed comments and conditions from the Fire Department,
Police Department, and other agencies/departments are at the end of this report.
This project approved at staff level by ACHD on May 3, 2005. Staff has reviewed the report
prepared by ACHD and agrees with the recommendations it contains. Please review any comments
that may be sent from ACHD between the print deadline and the hearing.
Based on the comments received from other 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, utilities and irrigation
services to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the future residents will be fire,
police, school facilities and services. Staff finds there will not be excessive additional requirements
at public cost. Staff does not anticipate that the annexation and zoning will 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 recognizes that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of a development on this site;
however, staff does not believe that the amount generated will be detrimental to the general welfare
of the public. Traffic congestion is an ongoing issue for north Meridian, the resolution of which is
beyond the scope of this project. ACHD staff finds that the additional traffic created by the project
should not be excessive. Staff does not anticipate that annexation and development in accordance
with current city code and the Comprehensive Plan will create excessive 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 entrance into the site from N. Linder Road. Ifvehicular
approaches are approved and constructed in accordance with ACHD policy, staff does not believe
that the subdivision will create interference with traffic on the surrounding public streets. Please
review the ACHD report for this project for additional information regarding this finding.
K. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature of major
importance; and
Staff is not aware of any natural or scenic features that may be lost, damaged or destroyed with
the approval of the subject applications. Staff recommends that the Commission and Council
reference any public testimony that may be presented to determine whether or not the proposed
development may result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural or scenic feature(s) of
importance of which staff is unaware. Any existing trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed
should be mitigated for, per the Landscape Ordinance.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of Meridian. (Ord. 592,11-
17-1992)?
In accordance with the findings listed above, staff finds that the annexation/zoning of this property,
as proposed by the applicant, is in the best interest of the City.
ANEXATION & ZONING COMMENTS
1. The annexation legal description submitted with the application (dated 1-6-05, stamped by Stephen R.
Lee, PLS) shows the property as contiguous to the existing corporate boundary of the City of Meridian.
2. Any future subdivision, uses and construction on this property shall comply with the City of Meridian
ordinances in effect at the time.

Because the developer is installing sewer, water, and utilities for the development at their cost, staff
finds that a development on this property will not require the expenditure of capital improvement
funds.
D. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed development;
The development will not require major expenditures for providing supporting services. Staff
recommends the Commission and Council rely upon comments submitted 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 of this report for
more detail.)
E. The other health, safety or environmental problems that may be brought to the Commission's
attention.
Staff finds that there should not be any health, safety or environmental problems associated with
this subdivision that should be brought to the Council or Commission's attention; no hazardous
natural features have been identified on the site. ACHD considers road safety issues in their
analysis. Staff finds the Commission and Council should rely on any public testimony that may be
presented to determine whether the proposed use may cause health, safety or environmental
problems.

Required Findings
ANNEXATION & ZONING ANALYSIS
Because the analysis below applies both to the proposed use and the proposed zoning, staff has
combined the analysis of use with the annexation and zoning 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."
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;
The subject property is currently designated 'Medium Density Residential' on the
2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. The City recently approved
Resolution No. 04-0454, which amended Chapter VII, Section 1, of the
Comprehensive Plan to include the following language: "At the discretion of City
Council, areas with a Residential Comprehensive Plan designation may request
office uses if the property has frontage on an arterial street or a section line road
and is 3 acres in size or less in size." In this instance, no ancillary commercial
uses shall be permitted." Staff finds that the subject property has frontage on an
arterial street Linder Road and is less than 3 acres in size (2.52 acres). According
to Resolution No. 04-0454, the subject parcel is eligible for an office use/zone, if
the Commission and Council find the zoning is appropriate for this site. Please see
the following facts and circumstances and the Special Considerations below for
further analysis of the proposed zoning designation.
The following Goals, Objectives, and Action items contained in the 2002
Comprehensive Plan are applicable to this application:
· 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:
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.
· "Plan for a variety of commercial and retail opportunities within the
Impact Area." (Chapter VII, Goal I, Objective B)
The proposed zone, which allows office uses, does contribute to the variety of
uses in this area.
· Provide for non-exclusive residential zoning that allows for low-impact
neighborhood commercial areas to develop in residential districts. Develop
standards to regulate neighborhood commercial uses to minimize the impact
on the integrity of the residential district (Chapter VII, Goal IV, Objective C,
Action 7).
The proposed development will be restricted to professional and medical
offices uses through a Development Agreement and the recent Comprehensive
Plan text amendment. The office uses will have a low-impact on the
surrounding properties and will not compromise the integrity of the
surrounding residential district. The project will take vehicular access from
N Linder Road, an arterial, and will not disrupt the nature or character of the
neighborhood.
· Require screening and landscape buffers on all development requests that are
more intense than adjacent residential properties (Chapter VII, Goal IV,
Objective C, Action 2).
The applicant will be required to provide land use btifJers between the existing
single-family residences and the proposed office uses, per Meridian City
Code.
City Council finds that the proposed L-O zoning designation is harmonious with
and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and the recent Comprehensive
Plan text amendment.
B. Is the area included in the zoning amendment intended to be rezoned in the
future;
City Council does not anticipate that the applicant plans to rezone the subject
property in the future if the accompanying PP application is approved.
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;
City Council finds that the proposed professional/medical office development is
allowed within the requested L-O zone. The uses of the property will be
restricted through a Development Agreement to those uses that are allowed by the
Comprehensive Plan text amendment.
D. Has there been a change in the area or adjacent areas that 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;
There have been no recent street improvements in the area. N. Linder Road is not
currently scheduled within ACHD's Five Year Work Program or Capital
Improvements Plan (CIP) for roadway widening. Other urban services, such as
water, are near to this site and the applicant should be able to extend such services
to the site.
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 existing character of the area will, and is, currently changing. City Council
finds that the proposed L-Q zoning and subsequent office use proposed with the
concurrent preliminary plat is hannonious and appropriate to the intended
character of the general vicinity. The applicant shall be required to execute a
Development Agreement with the City of Meridian to restrict hours of operation,
uses allowed, and the height of the structures. If this development is approved as
proposed and restrictions are placed on the propel1y through a Development
Agreement, City Council finds that it will not significantly change existing
character of the area as noted on the Future Land Use Map in the Comprehensive
Plan.
F. Will the proposed uses not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses;
City Council finds that the use of this site for professional office/clinic purposes
should not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if the
applicant enters into a development agreement with the City and if the
development complies with all development and landscaping ordinances.
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 an)' of such services;
Other urban services, such as water and sewer, are near this site and the applicant
should be able to extend such services to the site. The applicant shall be
responsible for the extension of utilities to and through this proposed
development. Sizing and routing shall be coordinated with the Public Works
Department.
On May 13, 2005, a joint agency/department comments meeting was held with
representatives of key service providers to this property. The detailed comments
and conditions from the Fire Department, Police Department, and other
agencies/departments are at the end ofthis report.
This project approved at staff level by ACHD on May 3, 2005. City staff has
reviewed the report prepared by ACHD and agrees with the recommendations it
contains.
Based on the comments received from other agencies/departments, City Council
finds that the public services listed above can be made available to accommodate
the proposed development.
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 developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, utilities and
inigation services to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve the
future residents will be fire, police, school facilities and services. City Council
finds there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost. City
Council does not anticipate that the annexation and zoning will 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;
City Council recognizes that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of a
development on this site; however, staff does not believe that the amount
generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of the public. Traffic
congestion is an ongoing issue for north Meridian, the resolution of which is
beyond the scope of this project. ACHD staff finds that the additional traffic
created by the project should not be excessive. City Council does not anticipate
that annexation and development in accordance with current city code and the
Comprehensive Plan will create excessive noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
J. Will the area have vehicular approaches to the property which shaD be so
designed as not to create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
streets;
The applicant is proposing to construct one entrance into the site from N. Linder
Road. If vehicular approaches are approved and constructed in accordance with
ACHD policy, City Council finds that the subdivision will not create interference
with traffic on the surrounding public streets.
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. Any existing
trees larger than 4" caliper that are removed should be mitigated for, per the
Landscape Ordinance.
L. Is the proposed zoning amendment in the best interest of the City of
Meridian. (Ord. 592, 11-17-1992)?
In accordance with the findings listed above, City Council finds that the
annexation/zoning of this property, as proposed by the applicant, is in the best
interest of the City.
PRELIMINARY PLAT ANALYSIS
Meridian City Code (MCC) 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:
A. The conformance of the subdivision with the Comprehensive Development
Plan;
See Annexation and Zoning Analysis "A" above.
B. The availability of public services to accommodate the proposed
development;
City Council finds that public services are or will be available to accommodate
the proposed development. See Annexation and Zoning Analysis "0" above.
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 a development on this property will not require the
expenditure of capital improvement funds.
D. The public financial capability of supporting services for the proposed
development;
The development will not require major expenditures for providing supporting
services. (See finding "0" 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.
City Council finds that there should not be any health, safety or enviromnental
problems associated with this subdivision that should be brought to the Councilor
Commission's attention; no hazardous natural features have been identified on the
site. ACHD considers road safety issues in their analysis.

Based on the above infomlation, it is safe to assume that ground water would be greater

Will,
With so many items, did I miss something? I know I don't have the Blueprint on but unless the Mayor wants to
provide an update, we aren't prepared. (See yesterday's emait) Perhaps the City should ask Karen Doherty to
address them at a council meeting.
Let me know if you want changes, additions, etc. I'm leaving about 1 p.m. so try to catch me by then.

Subject: RE: Joint Meeting
Will,
A couple of things... Shawn Martin, Assistant Manager of Traffic, will be calling Steve Siddoway today or tomorrow
about the population and E. 1st signs. That can be handled at the staff level and we don't feel it needs to be an
agenda item.
Second, regarding Locust Grove Overpass - the first year that it showed up in our Five Year Work Program was the
FY2002-2006 Plan which was adopted March 28, 2001 and it showed the overpass for construction in FY2006. In aU
subsequent FYWP's (five in all), the overpass has been scheduled in FY2006, despite ITD programming it in 'PD'.
So, the overpass has been programmed for construction by ACHD since 2001, and we have been working diligently
to bring ITD's 1M funds and the STP-TMA funds into line with this schedule. Currently, the federal aid funds (both 1M
and STP-TMA) are programmed for FY2007 - but ACHD is still planning to construct this project in FY2006 while
fronting the funds. This project has NEVER been bumped by ACHD; we have always been willing to 'do it on our
nickel' and get reimbursed by ITD when they program the money to satisfy the request by the City. We believe we
are constructing this overpass as soon as humanly possible, given federal aid requirements. Do you want it on the
agenda or do you just want pass along this explanation? Let me know.
And the answer is 'yes' to the question about the CIP update. We did an RFQ and will be holding interviews for a
consultant to assist us on July 18 and the process will begin shortly thereafter. Bruce will be prepared to give an
update at the meeting.
Blueprint - we are not the lead agency. The consortium, of which Mayor de Weerd is a member, as well as the
technical and steering committees, is guiding the BGG now. In fact, the consortium meets this afternoon but we do
not have a representative at that meeting. So I doubt we could update anyone - perhaps the Mayor could do the
update? Would she like to do that? Let me know, and if so, I will include it on the agenda.
Please get back to me as soon as you can. I won't be here tomorrow afternoon.
Susan

One additional thought.
Curb/Gutter/Sidewalk Program:
It may be good to inform both Council and ACHD that we are actively soliciting neighborhood interest in the
Curb/Gutter/Sidewalk Program by including an announcement in the water/sewer bills this month.
This would be a quick informational item and should not require much discussion.

Subject: RE: Joint Meeting
Yes, here are my thoughts. Most could be fairly quick agenda items.
1. Downtown Meridian Transportation Management Plan:
,. Updated costs were taken to the public at an open house in May.
." Plan was updated in June (provide copies of the plan?), parking analysis also completed.
,. Results of P&Z Workshop July 7.
." Upcoming City Council public hearing July 26 and decision
,. Express appreciation for the partnership/ACHD staff involvement
." Set Funding/Phasing discussion for next joint meeting, or perhaps a special meeting?
2. Transportation Task Force:
I see this is already on the agenda for Don Kostelec to address. I could also add an update on the TTF's
activities to date and upcoming meeting dates.
3. Population signs/E. 1 st Signs:
Request an update regarding locations and timeline for the updated City of Meridian population signs.
Also follow up regarding removal of the "Main Street formerly East 1st" signs.
4. Pine Street:
Express desire to get Pine Street connection between Nola and Eagle shown in ACHD's CIP. This would allow
developers to construct the road ahead of schedule through a public/private partnership and get reimbursed over time
with impact fees. Reimbursement is not an option for ACHD unless the project is in their CIP. Confirm that ACHD will
begin an update of their CIP later this year.
5. Ten Mile Interchange:
An update is already on the draft agenda. I also recommend expressing support for ITD's request that
improvements to Overland between Linder and Ten Mile be added to the FYWP prior to construction of the
interchange.
6. Locust Grove Overpass:
Given the history of Locust Grove's construction schedule being bumped in previous years, I recommend asking
ACHD to confirm the 2006 construction date.
7. Blueprint for Good Growth:
ACHD is the primary sponsor ofthe BGG process. Would it benefit the City Council members to get a status
report and next steps from ACHD? I believe some of the Council members sit on the Consortium and are up to speed
on the process. Other Council members may not be.

The reason for the chipseal item is that we will be chipsealing downtown Meridian shortly. The video takes 6 minutes
and does a great job of explaining why and how the process is done which should be useful to city hall when they get
complaints. We would like the City to update us on where things stand on the Ten Mile Interchange. And we want to
