Fairview Avenue south to East Central Drive or Overland Road:
Corrie: Okay hearing none, Item Number 5, items moved from the Consent Agenda
Items G and H. We will take G first Mr. Nary, questions?
Nary: Mr. Mayor, I guess my only question was, since I knew we had done this quite
awhile back, I didn't see a memo. Maybe I just missed something, as to why we are
doing this now, and, secondarily, because the resolution indicates that we would
maintain dual signage for a year. I just wanted to be clear in this resolution is it a year
from now or a year from when we did it, which we did it about a year ago and I didn't
know if Mr. Nichols had an answer to that or someone else.
Corrie: Mr. Nichols?
Nichols: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, it's my recollection that we prepared these
documents quite some time ago and for whatever reason we didn't shepherd them well
enough to get them on the agenda for your approval. Then, the Clerk's Office began
getting calls from either the assessor or somebody at the county wanting something that
could be recorded to reflect what had been done and so that's why they are on there
now correct, Mr. Clerk? I think that's --
Corrie: The record shows he's shaking his head yes. Okay. Thank you.
Nary: Mr. Mayor, I guess, then, the only other question I have -- and, again, I don't
know who is the right person to ask, on the issue of about a year -- my recollection from
Planning and Zoning was that the postmaster had indicated that they would continue to
deliver mail for a year from when we did it, from when we changed the name, and it's
been changed for quite awhile. It has the double street signs that have been up for
eight or nine, 10 months, I don't know -- quite awhile, as well. I guess I just wanted, for
clarity's sake, if we are going to pass this, do we need to -- should we put in a date as to
when this ends at the end of 2003, so that they don't have to make -- it would be up
forever or -- I don't know who is going to take them down anyway. Does anybody have
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 5 of 30
any -- is ACHD going to take those signs down at some point? Does anybody know
that? -
Hawkins-Clark: Mr. Mayor, Councilman Nary, I believe that Mr. Nichols was correct in
that it mainly was an error in just getting the resolution passed. We just never got the
documentation in front of you to formally approve and so I don't believe that the
Highway District, who put the signs up, is even aware that we are moving on this action
tonight. For them it's still based on the original date of approval by the City Council. I
guess my -- I did not speak with anyone at the Highway District regarding the timing of
the signs, but I would think that the original one-year would -- would be safe. I would
not see a need to add from today's date one-year.
Nary: Right. It probably doesn't make any difference. I guess what I would propose, if
the Council is of a mind, is that on the resolution we simply delete Section 5 -- I mean
the signs are already there. I don't think we are going to take them down. If someone
else takes them, I don't want someone to say they are violating something. They don't-
- they can be up for as much -- for as long as somebody leaves them there. If we delete
Section 5, probably nobody is going to have a concern about it and the postmaster will
continue to deliver mail until he doesn't want to anymore and I think that would probably
be adequate. If that's all right with everybody, I guess I would move the approval of
Item G, MI-01-001, a request for a street name change summary from East First Street
to Main Street from Cherry Lane, Fairview Avenue, south to East Central or Overland,
to -- and with the amendment to include the deletion -- this is the summary -- to delete
Section 5 requiring the double street signs.
De Weerd: Second.
Corrie: Okay. Okay. Any further discussion? Hearing none, roll call vote, Mr. Berg.
Roll Call: McCandless, aye; Nary, aye; de Weerd, aye; Bird, absent.
Corrie: Okay. Affirmative vote.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES, ONE ABSENT
Corrie: Item Number 6, then.
Nary: Oh. I still have --
Corrie: Oh, you have got G. I'm sorry. H.
Nary: Thank you. Mr. Mayor, I'd move the approval of Item H, Resolution Number 03-
398, looks like it's MI 01-001, resolution request for street name change from East First
Street to Main Street from Cherry Lane/Fairview Avenue south to East Central Drive or
Overland Road, with the amendment to include deletion of Section 5 of the resolution
regarding the double street signs.

request for Final Plat approval of five building lots on 6.85 acres in L-O and C-G zones
for Mallane Subdivision by the Land Group, Inc., north of East Fairview Avenue and

Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Mayor, Members of the Council. This application is for
Final Plat on the Mallane Subdivision. The property is in the bold outline there.
Fairview Avenue borders on the south and Hickory Way on the east and north. The
office zoning is currently on the whole property. Louie's Restaurant is in the middle of
the property there. Here is a reduced copy of the Final Plat that was submitted as part
of the application. The request does comply with the Preliminary Plat that was
approved by Council. They did get a Time Extension. They moved this onto March of
this year, so they have submitted it in time. They are proposing a shared access
easement here in the cross-hatched area. They are also proposing a cross-parking
agreement that would share amongst all five lots of the subdivision. The Preliminary
Plat did require a 35-foot landscape easement that will be constructed across the full
Fairview frontage. Louie's currently has their landscaping in, so this plat would require
the balance of these two lots with Fairview frontage to have a 35-foot landscape
easement and there will be landscaping along Hickory, as well as Dove Meadows. This
Dove Meadows boundary, the Preliminary Plat required both a CMU block wall to be
constructed across this diagonal area, as well as a 25-foot landscape buffer. I believe
Meridian City Council Meeting

the applicant is here tonight and would like to address that. They did talk with staff.
The reason that that wall was added in there at the Preliminary Plat time was the
concept showed a fairly large retail building that might have some drive access back
here next to Dove Meadows. They are, at this point, proposing to keep this lot limited
office and that would change the use here from a retail to an office, so they are arguing,
I guess, that the intensity is going to be less and they do not need to construct that
block wall now. That -- that is something that today's landscape ordinance would allow,
as long as you still provide a 25-foot wide landscape buffer that is planted with dense
plantings that are going to provide that sound barrier. That -- I will let the applicant
address that further but other than that, I think the only thing to point out is that you --
there is a pending application for a rezone to a commercial zone on these other four
lots, leaving this north lot next to Dove Meadows as a limited office. That should not
affect the Final Plat, however. I would ask that our staff's recommended conditions in
on January 31st memo be included in any motion that the City Council makes.
Corrie: Thank you, Brad. Is the representative here this evening? If you would give us
your name and address, please, for the record.
Hepworth: Russ Hepworth with The Land Group, 128 South Eagle Road in Eagle,.
Idaho.
Corrie: Thank you, Russ.
Hepworth: Mayor, Councilmen, as stated by the staff, I just wanted to discuss the
retaining wall, the block retaining wall along -- or not retaining wall, a sound barrier wall
along the boundary of Dove Meadows. In the original CUP and the original Preliminary
Plat that was submitted, it stated that it was required to build a masonry block wall with
a 10-foot wide planting strip adjacent to this residential strip in lieu of a 20-foot
landscape buffer, assuming that -- I guess, that they were trying to get closer to that --
that setback. It has been through different policies and it's now going to the 25-foot
landscape and we are just revisiting if it is required to place both a 25-foot landscape
buffer and a masonry block wall behind what is potentially going to be the back side of
an office building, which could be a block wall itself. No other comments on that Item.
One other item that we want to bring to your attention is that Lot 4 of the Final Plat was
reduced from the original Preliminary Plat, approved Preliminary Plat, in size due to a
land swap that was done between different parties of the owners. Now Lot 4 only
encompasses the existing Louie's Restaurant and most of the parking is located in Lot 5
as shown on there and the condition of the Preliminary Plat was that each lot shall have
it's own parking. As it is right now, Lot 4 or Louie's Restaurant, the parking is not
included in their lot, so we are requesting that perhaps that -- that item be changed.
That Lots 3, 5, 6 and 7, shall have -- or shall be -- or shall have to have required parking
for those individual parcels or a note placed on the plat that the entire subdivision has a
Cross-Parking Agreement.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 10 of 30
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: I just have a couple questions. The first one of Brad in order to address the
issue with the retaining wall, they would have to come in and amend the CUP, wouldn't
they? If that was a requirement, it didn't say either/or, I would imagine it said they have
to do the wall.
Hawkins-Clark: Mr. Mayor, Council Member de Weerd, that's correct. As a stated
condition in the adopted plat findings, I think the only way to amend that is to have
another hearing. The Dove Meadows property owners, if they attended, would be under
the assumption that a masonry wall is going to be constructed and they were not
noticed as a part of this meeting tonight.
De Weerd: Okay. Brad, were you able to go back and look at why that condition was
put on? Were there neighbors that attended that meeting and this was one of the -- we
normally don't put block walls up there, unless there is a very good reason so was there
testimony about --
Hepworth: I don't know that there was testimony, other than the original Concept Plan.
showed a retail building, instead of an office building there, and it showed an access
lane behind it. I think staff, then, recommended that the landscape buffer and the wall
be placed there, because there was potential for traffic, dumpsters, so on, so forth
there.
De Weerd: Well, keeping in mind that it would need to come back and be a Public
Hearing to change that condition, I don't see why that would be a problem at this point,
unless that block wall had to be built before they could start any -- get any additional
Building Permits, other than the one they did with Louie's.
Hawkins-Clark: Typically, if the city places a condition on a plat, we will require that that
condition be fulfilled. One, either constructed before we would allow any construction to
happen, or that they bond with the city for the cost of the improvement, like any other
standard plat condition. We -- as it's written now, we couldn't, I don't believe, just move
the wall from the plat to a Conditional Use Permit for that lot, because it's a plat
condition, not a conditional use condition. It's a condition that's associated with the
improvements of the plat, not Lot 5 -- or 6. I'm sorry.
Corrie: Russ, is that Lot 6, is that going to be just one building or a group of buildings
for L-O?
Hepworth: Proposed right now it's just one.
Corrie: Just one building?
Hepworth: Yes shown conceptual a pretty large building.

Corrie: Yes. [would think so. That's acreages there.
Hepworth: Right.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: Just one last question. You mentioned that you would need to have cross-
parking. You have Cross-Easement Agreements for traffic flows.
Hepworth: Correct.
De Weerd: Where are you going to take the traffic out on?
Hepworth: There are two entrances onto Hickory straight up from the entrance off of
Fairview along that property line right there.
De Weerd: Okay.
Hepworth: It's an approach onto Hickory and an existing approach and one also at the
end of -- well, I guess itls an actual easement through Lot 2 of the Angel Park
Development right there, it extends out and that approach is located there with a -- with
an easement on Lot 2 of the Angel Park Subdivision.
De Weerd: Okay. I imagine those are going to be very important if the traffic continues
to increase. Itls already difficult getting in and out of Louie's, so --
Hepworth: Yes and I know the applicant -- or the owner of the site has pushed several
times with ACHD to get a stoplight placed at the intersection of Hickory. However, I
think they are running into road blocks there, because itls not in the five-year plan and --
De Weerd: We had that conversation with ACHD, so --
Hepworth: Yes.
De Weerd: -- we know the problem you're encountering. Okay. Thank you.
Corrie: Any other discussion?
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Yes. On that building there on Lot 6, I mean you said on the original concept it
was a retail building, now it's an office building, but we still don't know that the purpose
Meridian City Council Meeling
February 4, 2003
Page 12 of 30
-- that although the wall was there probably because of a drive lane. We don't know
that that office building -- there is going to be a drive lane behind it as well.
Hepworth: Right.
Nary: And the trash dumpster is going to be behind the building as well.
Hepworth: Correct.
Nary: Okay. All right.
Hepworth: Yes and I guess in defense of that, each lot does have to have a Conditional
Use Permit before they construct on anything. However, as Brad stated, that condition
couldn't be switched from the plat to a CUP on an individual lot, so--
Nary: And on this development, that's the only parcel that's immediately adjacent to
homes correct?
Hepworth: Correct.
Nary: Thank you.
Corrie: Any other questions? Thank you any further discussion on this request?
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Brad, on the site-specific requirement -- I guess I'm looking for the parking issue
or is that a different -- am I just not seeing it? Is there something on here about the
requirement for a --
Hawkins-Clark: Councilman Nary, no, you're not missing it, it's just not there.
Nary: Okay so we would need to add that about having the -- I guess specific parking
on that plat -- they have a notation on the plat of having joint parking among all of these
lots? Okay.
Hawkins-Clark: That's correct and it -- I was also just informed by Gary Smith and the
Clerk that I understand that there are three street light structures that are currently on
Hickory Way abutting Lot 6 and 7. Mr. Leader, the developer of Dove Meadows, did
construct those, but they have never been hooked up to power, so, apparently, the
clerk's office is getting calls dealing with why aren't these streets lights operational and
that it was tied to the development of this subdivision. I was not aware of that in writing
the staff report, but, certainly, jf a condition needs to be added that these street lights
become operational, then, we would need to do that. I'd point that out, being somewhat
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 13 of 30
naive as to the history of the project, but understand that's where it is, so the developer
would need to bring .power and make these streetlights operational as a part of this
development.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: So, do we need to approve these tonight, or do we need to find that condition out
before we do that?
Hawkins-Clark: I would refer to Mr. Berg, if he can shed any light on it.
Nary: No pun intended.
Berg: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, my understanding, remembering back, that
when the developer who developed Dove Meadows and the church, apparently, there
was no power run on that side of the street. It was always told that when power got
there they would put the lights up, but before our bonding ran out, Mr. Leader installed-
the street lights and you can see them standing upright on the west side of the street.
There is no power to them, but the streetlights are installed. It was one of those
situations when that got developed, which I think Mr. Leader had all the intentions of
developing at one time, but he sold it off. There is no power to those streetlights and
they were going to get power when the power got on that side of the street. That's the
reason why there is no power and no light, but there are streetlights.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: So, I guess back, then, the thought was that this developer would pay the cost of
bringing the power line to those poles? Is that what was contemplated?
Berg: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, I would like to guess what was thought of,
but I think the understanding was he was going to develop the whole parcel and to get
his bonding back, he was going to have to install streetlights. There was no way to get
power across the street and, if you remember what the design is, the church has a large
parking lot with lights in the parking lot, so that side wasn't so dark, but whatever was
going to be developed on the other side would require street lights along Hickory Drive.
Also, just so you know, that the main street light at the entrance on Fairview, the power
comes from the church and it is not a metered -- the power is directly from the church
and so they pay for that street light intersection. It's kind of a strange setup. That's just
the way it happened. I don't know if Mr. Smith has anymore to add to that, but he was
here longer than I was.
Corrie: Gone, but not forgotten.

De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: So, at this point I know the applicant has an issue with the wall, but it's part
of the condition of the plat, so they would have to come back and ask to amend that.
We need to add comments on the parking and notation on the plat with the cross -- it
wouldn't be a cross-easement. What would it be just cross-parking --
Hawkins-Clark: Cross-parking easement.
De Weerd: Oh. Okay and, then, that the streetlights would become operational and
that's where we are at right now? Okay.
Nary: Mr. Mayor, could I just ask one question? Just so I'm clear, the streetlights are all
on the -- I guess the sidewalk that's adjacent to this property is that right? They are
providing light to the south side of that Hickory roadway; is that right? Is that where it's
at? Okay. Thank you.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: I would move that we approve the Final Plat of five building lots on 6.85
acres in L-O and C-G zones for Mallane Subdivision, to include the comments regarding
the cross-parking easement notation on the plat and also the streetlights on the property
would become operational and ask the attorney to draw up the appropriate paperwork.

FP 03~002 Request for Final Plat approval of 6 building lots on 13.77
acres in a C-C zone for Silverstone Subdivision No.3 by Sundance
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 15 of 30
Company -- southeast corner of East Overland Road and South Eagle
Road: '
Corrie: Item Number 10. This is a request for Final Plat approval of six building lots on
13.77 acres in a C-C zone for Silverstone Subdivision NO.3 by Sundance Company,
southeast corner of East Overland Road and South Eagle Road. Staff comments first.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Mayor, Members of the Council. This is a re-subdivision of
existing lots that are there at the southeast corner of Eagle Road and Overland. The
existing four lots are shown in bold. The Silverstone Way collector spine road there is
adjacent to the east side of where they are proposing to re-subdivide Lots 2, 3, 6, and 7.
Here is a more detailed look at this requested -- or their proposed Final Plat. As you
know, all subdivision improvements have already been constructed out on Eagle Road,
the 35-foot landscape buffer is in. In terms of landscape improvements, that's the only
required landscaping in this re-subdivision request, so they are showing the appropriate
sewer easements and other city requirements on the plat. The Preliminary Plat -- this
does conform with the Preliminary Plat, so I don't think there is anything else to point out
on this application, so we will just -- well, I'm sorry, there is. Item number nine on page
two states to submit copies of CC&R's and the applicant did contact our office, they'
pointed out that Silverstone has already approved CC&R's that were submitted with the
previous Silverstone Subdivision NO.1. They are not proposing any changes, so there
is no need for them to resubmit, so we would support omitting that Number 9. Other
than that, recommend that our conditions in our January 28th memo be included in any
motion. Thank you.
Corrie: Thank you, Brad. Is the representative of Silverstone here this evening? Name
and address, please, for the record.
Tealey: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, my name is Pat Tealey. My office address
is 2501 Bogus Basin Road, Boise, representing the applicant Silverstone. We have
read the staff comments and really have no comment one-way or the other. I'm glad
they did notice Item Number 9, which we submitted to them, and would request that all
be amended. Are there any questions, we would be glad to answer them?
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Mr. Tealey, wouldn't it -- for Item Number 9, I mean I know they don't have to
submit new restrictive covenants, but -- and this isn't a residential subdivision.
Shouldn't there be some notation that the covenants that are already existing for
Silverstone 1 now also apply to this phase as well, so that any property owners or
purchasers or lessees will know all of the same -- the same CC&R's apply to all of it?
Tealey: Certainly that's the case. What we were requesting be eliminated is the review
by the city attorney.
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 16 of 30
Nary: Oh so, if we had -- if we had a document of some sort saying that all of the
CC&R's are still the same and all the same as previously submitted, that would be all
right?
Tealey: That's correct.
Nary: Okay. Thank you.
Corrie: Any other staff comments, Council? Okay. Hearing none, I will entertain a
motion on the request for Final Plat approval.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: I move the approval of Item 10, FP 03-002, request for Final Plat approval of six
building lots on 13.77 acres in a C-C zone for Silverstone Subdivision No.3, to include
all staff comments with Item 9 of site-specific requirements being that the applicant"
simply submit a letter indicating all previously submitted restrictive covenants,
conditions, and restrictions for the prior phases of Silverstone Subdivision apply to this
Final Plat request and for counsel to prepare Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law
and Decision and Order.
McCandless: Second.
Corrie: Motion has been made and seconded any further discussion? Hearing none,
roll call vote, Mr. Berg.

Public Hearing: VAR 03-002 Request for a Variance to allow a one year
Time Extension for filing the Final Plat for Baltic Place Subdivision by
Pinnacle Engineers, Inc., for LC Development, Inc. - south of East
Franklin Road, west of South Locust Grove Road:
Corrie: Item Number 11 is a Public Hearing. This is a request for a Variance to allow a
one-year Time Extension for filing a Final Plat for Baltic Place Subdivision by Pinnacle
Engineers, Inc., or LC Development, Inc., south of East Franklin Road and west of
South Locust Grove Road. At this time, I will open the Public Hearing and invite staff's
comments first.
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 17 of 30
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Mayor, Members of the Council. The subject property is on
the south side of Franklin Road, just east of the cemetery. The Fire Substation Number
1 is just to the west here on the north side of and - Meridian industrial park to the north.
This is, I believe, Baltic. The request was originally for a one-year Time Extension.
You'll have to excuse the plat here, it's kind of marked up, but, generally, they are
proposing a commercial -- they have already received commercial zoning here on the
north end of their project off of Franklin. Then, they have also been approved for an R-
40 zoning on the south end of the property for an apartment complex. This is multi-
family residential and, then, office and commercial lots on the north. The Development
Agreement was signed. The city did pass the Annexation Ordinance recently that
approved the annexation and zoning. The original application did request a one-year
extension for them to submit the Final Plat, but, then, they did submit a letter, dated
January 29th, to Dave McKinnon in the planning department that requested a two-year
extension, instead of a one-year, so they did amend their application with that letter.
The reason stated by Mr. Boyle in his letter as a part of the application for the extension
largely has to do with Ada County Highway District's widening project of Franklin Road.
They are purchasing right of way for this stretch in 2003 on Franklin and construction is
slated for 2004. Due to the negotiation process on the right-of-way purchase, as well as
other utility issues and installations, they are stating that the Variance is needed for"
them to work with the Highway District and they cannot submit their Final Plat, in large
part because of that Ada County Highway District project. Typically, a time extension
staff does not have to make findings, we just make a recommendation to the Council.
Since this is a Variance, because they did technically miss their deadline for a one-year,
we did have to make findings on the Variance and we could not find that they really met
the findings. They technically could proceed with at least submitting their Final Plat
application to city and we also felt that a two-year time extension, really, was not in
compliance with the ordinance, which just states one-year. Staff did recommend denial
of this request.
Corrie: Any questions of Brad? This is a Public Hearing. I will invite the applicant on
the request first.
Boyle: Mayor, City Council Members, good evening again. Clint Boyle with Pinnacle
Engineers, 12552 West Executive Drive.
Corrie: Oh, I'm sorry.
Boyle: In Boise, Idaho.
Corrie: Is the testimony you are about to give the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth, so help you God?
Boyle: It is.
Corrie: Thank you.
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 18 of 30
Boyle: Want me to repeat my name again?
Corrie: Do it just for the record.
Boyle: Clint Boyle, Pinnacle Engineers, 12552 West Executive Drive in Boise, Idaho.
Corrie: Thank you, Clint.
Boyle: This particular request that's in front of you is for a Time Extension for submitting
a Final Plat to the City Council for review. This particular project, the developer on this
project was unaware that the time had lapsed and part of that came from the fact that
the actual annexation request was adopted -- I believe it was in August of 2002. He
was under the impression that his time actually started once the property was annexed
into the city, but, apparently, in discussions with the staff, it starts from when the
Preliminary Plat is actually approved, even though the property wasn't within the city.
That was part of his misunderstanding on this. To further complicate things, the
Development Agreement that was originally signed, apparently, there was an error. The
city informed us in some of their legal description -- or legal proceedings on the
publication of it, and maybe Mr. Berg knows more about that, but the developer, again,.
was contacted recently. He had to resign that Development Agreement and that was
just adopted within the last month. With that and with those issues behind him, that's
part of the reason why he didn't hit the October submittal deadline for filing a Time
Extension. The Preliminary Plat was approved in October 2001 and would have been
up apparently in October of 2002. However, the annexation didn't occur until August of
2002. Now, with that said, the items that are coming into play here -- I believe Brad
touched on this. As this City Council is aware, with the Time Extensions and with other
projects that you have seen in the past, if you -- if you don't submit the request for the
Time Extension prior to the one-year deadline, then, the way that these requests have
been handled in the past is through a Variance request process. When the developer
has contacted ACHD and worked with them with regards to the timing of their project,
they have indicated that they will be purchasing right of way along Franklin Road this
year and construction -- widening of Franklin Road adjacent to this site will begin early
2004 and be completed by the end of 2004. The reason that we are here in front of you
tonight for this request -- and, originally, it was submitted as a one-year request.
However, after further working with ACHD and trying to nail down their time lines, the
developer felt that the widening on Franklin Road would be detrimental to his property if
he were to proceed with an office/commercial development, which has its frontage on
Franklin Road. Essentially, if he were to proceed based on the deadlines that our the
original constraints, his project with the office lots would, essentially, be completed and
opening for business right about the time that ACHD started tearing out the road for the
improvements on Franklin. Again, realizing that this is not going to be very favorable to
him and to the project, due to this disruption, that's the reason he's asking for the
extension. I guess as far as the two-year -- if the Council doesn't see fit to the two-year,
then, we certainly would like to have them consider a lesser time period, but he did feel
that the two-year was appropriate, based on the constraints on the site. Again, given
the fact that the property wasn't even annexed until August of the past year. Given that,
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 19 of 30
had the time actually started in August for this particular development, we would be out
until August of this year before we needed to request a Time Extension and, then, he
would have been out until August of 2004, which even would have better coincided with
this particular development. Again, I believe that, just for the Council's clarification, the
developer was unaware that his clock had started ticking, because the property -- the
annexation and Development Agreement hadn't -- hadn't actually occurred for this
property until August. Then, the Development Agreement subsequently had to be
resigned, republished this past month. With that, that's kind of the facts behind it.
When I -- you know, the staff, as far as their findings, some of their findings, if you look
at their findings under such categories as Item B, it talks about strict compliance with
the requirements of this title would cause -- would result in extraordinary hardship to the
owner, because of -- and it lists some features. Unusual topography, the nature, or
condition of adjacent development -- well, I would certainly say that ACHD's project
would be a certain condition that affected this particular property. Then, it says other
physical conditions or other conditions that makes strict compliance unreasonable under
the circumstances. Again, you know, we believe that ACHD, the project that's going
through, and the timing of that, with the other issues that I brought up, do make this a
unique situation here. As far as it being detrimental to public health and welfare, we
received the packet, there didn't seem to be any agencies that felt that this was.
detrimental to water, sewer, fire protection, et cetera. Again, we are requesting the
Variance for the submittal of the Final Plat. The developer would like to have a two-year
extension, if possible. If the Council doesn't see fit, then, he would accept a lessor time
but, again, he wants to try to plan this project in accordance with the constraints that
he's dealing with, with the ACHD project. Thank you for your time.
Corrie: Thank you any comments or questions?
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Mr. Boyle, you said, I think, that the -- that this property wasn't annexed until
Augustof2002?
Boyle: Correct.
Nary: Okay.
Boyle: That's my understanding. Correct.
Nary: All right.
Boyle: Will may have the exact date, but I believe it was August of 2002 the ordinance
was actually adopted.
Nary: Thank you.
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 20 of 3D
Boyle: Thank you.
Corrie: Is there anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony at this
time? Okay. Council, any other questions you have on the Public Hearing record?
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: I guess this is the first time I have seen a Time Extension as a Variance and
I understand the reason why. I just -- this kind of request would never meet the
objectives of the Variance, so -- we have been trying to stay very close in making sure
that each Variance request meets the intent of granting a Variance. This is so unusual,
I can't see how it can meet all of those intents. What is staff's opinion on -- this is an
ordinance and it's hard to really make a decision on this kind of a unique situation -- or I
guess I'm having a hard time finding the rational that meets all of these different criteria.
Hawkins-Clark: Mr. Mayor, Councilwoman de Weerd, I agree, it's -- these are kind of
sticky situations. I mean the ordinance is very clear, it says if you don't submit your
Final Plat within one-year of approval of the Preliminary Plat, it becomes null and void
you got to start all over again. They did not submit the request within one-year, so,
instead, of forcing the Preliminary Plat to expire, we have said, okay, well, let's work
with the development community and do a Variance, instead of enforcing the null and
void clause. Maybe legal has some other opinions on it, but that's how we have dealt
with these -- you know, these projects where instead of forcing it to go back to the
beginning of the Preliminary Plat, because, technically, it is null and void today.
De Weerd: In some communities don't they just totally de-annex them and they revert
back to their previous zone?
Hawkins-Clark: I believe so. I think most -- you know, so our Development Agreements
do have a de-annexation clause.
De Weerd: I didn't want to bring that up, but--
Corrie: Well, certainly, they don't meet the Variance requirement here, so --
Boyle: Mayor, if I might just make one more comment while the hearing is still open.
Clint Boyle again. Again, just so this Council is aware, in many of the municipalities
around, they, actually, allow two years from Preliminary Plat approval before having to
file the Final Plat and that is very common with many of the jurisdictions in the area.
With that said, this Variance process, this process that we are proposing tonight, has
been approved by the Council in the past. I can think of one -- not that I have done, but
it was adjacent to a project that we did that -- I can't remember the name of it, but it was
right near Blackstone and Coral Creek Subdivisions, the subdivision that's adjacent to it
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4,2003
Page 21 of 30
to the east. The same situation, a Variance request that came through and was
approved, so that this is not something new as far as this Council and that's at least how
the Council has proceeded with these type of requests in the past.
Corrie: Well, let me ask you in your recollection did they meet all the Variance
requirements, the best you can recollect?
Boyle: I don't even --
Corrie: They must have or they would have probably not gotten it. My second question
is we give Variances for one year. I mean it's not usual for us to do two years.
Boyle: And, again, I don't recall, because it wasn't a project that I ran through on that
Variance. I know it was adjacent to one that I was at the hearing and I don't recall all
the criteria, so I can't really answer that, Mayor. Again, as I stated, if a two-year is
unacceptable to the Council, the developer would certainly like a one-year extension.
Again, it seemed reasonable from the standpoint that the property actually didn't have
the Annexation Ordinance adopted and approved until August and, then, the
Development Agreement, actually, really, technically, went into effect just this past.
month. I think there have been some unique situations there as far as just the timing on
those documents as well.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Brad, is that circumstance -- I mean, I guess, the hard part I'm having is that we
generally don't allow people to create their own hardship. Part of what Mr. Boyle is
saying, at least it sounds to me like, it's a hardship that's created by the fact that the
extension wasn't requested by October of 2002, but is the delay in annexation or the
delay in the Development Agreement, is that -- is that timing fairly common? I guess I'm
just not getting a real sense one way or the other. Is that fairly common, so again, it's
still a hardship that was created by the fact that the developer here just didn't -- just
missed the timing on it?
Hawkins-Clark: Mr. Mayor, Mr. Nary, the timing of the annexation and the Development
Agreement I would say is unusual, you know, in terms of the delay that Clint's talking
about. I -- you know, the reason why the after approval of the Preliminary Plat waiting
several months before it's annexed, you know, certainly, they are typically approved on
the same night by this body, so I -- that could be argued that that's unique. I don't know
the reason, yes, why we did not receive -- typically -- we must not have received the
signed Development Agreement from the applicant, because that's what triggers the
city's process to put it on our agenda is when we receive the signed Development
Agreement back from the applicant. I don't know the reason for the delay there.
Nary: Now, the ball is to you so why did it take so long to --
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 22 of 30
Boyle: I asked the developer the same thing and he put it in the city's court, said that he
didn't receive the Development Agreement until down the road close to August from the
city. I don't know. I wasn't involved in it -- in the project, actually, from the get go, it was
through a different firm, so I'm kind of coming in here mid stream as well. I did ask him
that question as to why the annexation lagged and he was under the impression that the
Development Agreement hadn't actually gotten to him from the city. There had been
some lag time. I don't know if that's the true sequence of events or not, but that's what I
have been informed.
Corrie: Any light there, Mr. Clerk?
Berg: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, I don't know if there is any light, but I'm just
kind of analyzing the process. When somebody comes in and annexes, the Council has
wanted to see a Preliminary Plat with it, so they can see what the design of the project
is as a whole. Yes, there has been times when there has been negotiations back and
forth getting a Development Agreement that people are willing to sign. I mean there are
several projects that were pretty complex and I know that Mr. Nichols had -- I'm not
saying redo, they just kind of fine tuned that Development Agreement. Sometimes, you.
know, annexation can be delayed by just that Development Agreement being prepared,
because some things can't be prepared until after you see the project and approve the
Preliminary Plat, approve the conditions that you want to put in there. I don't know what
the reasoning was behind the delay on the Development Agreement I would have to
look back in my records to see what is going on. We have a process now that we sign
the Development Agreement before we approve the ordinance for annexation and I
could see where there could be some delays between when you initially approve a
Preliminary Plat, which is at that night that you ask to go ahead and prepare an
ordinance for annexation. The Development Agreement must be signed before we put
that on the agenda. I'd just have to look on the records to see where the delays were,
but I can just see, in theory, that there could be some delays regarding just the system
that we want to incorporate to see the whole project and approve the whole project,
rather than just a piece of it.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: I guess I'm not really seeing it very good, Mr. Boyle that the Variance findings are
here. It also -- because, again, like you said, you came in mid stream, some of those
timing issues may be attributable to the city and if that's the case, I think that your client
does deserve the benefit of that, but we don't know. I don't know what those delays are.
I'm not totally sold that Mr. Centers doesn't recognize when the timing of these things
happened and that he just missed it, because he didn't realize when this was approved
or annexed. He's a pretty knowledgeable developer. I think he knows those things, so -
- but I guess what I would be willing to do, if the rest of the Council is willing to do, is
continue this matter to allow us some time to get some of that information as to the
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 23 of 30
sequence of the timing of this thing. Give us better information to make a decision as to
whether or not there are enough facts here to be able to find for this Variance. That at
least benefits your client a little bit, because right now, if I had to vote this minute, I don't
think there is enough here for a Variance.
Boyle: Well, we certainly don't want you to do that, then, until you go through it, so --
but I will -- if I could just speak to that issue, because I did have the discussion -- and,
you're right, Mr. Centers is a very knowledgeable developer. He had mentioned on
another project, which was Locust Grove Place -- I, actually, had a discussion with the
planner that was involved in that project where they had been in a similar situation. My
understanding is that they had worked with the city on that and it was determined that
their clock started ticking at the time of annexation, rather than Preliminary Plat, and so I
can certainly see why he may have some confusion as to the time. Again, I did as well
and it was an issue that I had to talk to the staff, they had to get together and figure out
when exactly that occurred. The city technically doesn't have jurisdiction over the
project until it's annexed. I don't think it's something that Mr. Centers was trying to beat
the system. Obviously, he would have submitted the Time Extension within the
appropriate time frame had he known what it was. Certainly, he doesn't want to have to
bore you with going back through the process, nor be out the time and expense to go.
back through with, essentially, the same project and bring it back in front of you again
with the same ordinances and everything and here we go one more time on it. I
certainly don't think he was trying to get around that. The Variance option, again, we
talked about this extensively with the staff, how do we proceed now that it's expired, and
this was the mechanism that was given to us to proceed with it and that's why we are
here in front of you. Again, if you need more information, I'd rather get you that
information, than have a negative vote on the project, certainly.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: I would agree that we need to continue this to get a little more detail. This
was a pretty contentious development application, I think, to begin this, so it could have
caused some further complications in tying up the loose ends. I would say that I agree
with Mr. Nary that the developer is seasoned and he should know to ask our staff,
instead of another developer, what the process is. With that said, I would move to
continue this Public Hearing until February 11, 2003, and ask that staff look in and see a
little bit more detail of the delays and see if there is other criteria that we can apply to
this Variance request.
Nary: Second.
Corrie: Okay. Motion has been made and seconded. Any further discussion?
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Meridian City Council Meeting

Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Is February 11 th enough time?
Corrie: That's what I was going to ask.
Nary: Should we go to the 18th, just to make sure there is enough --
De Weerd: Well, yes, they are late, so it doesn't really matter.
Nary: Just a little tiny bit later.
De Weerd: I would amend to the 18th Brad, does that give you enough time?
Hawkins-Clark: That would be great. Thanks.
De Weerd: Okay.
Nary: I would concur.
Corrie: Okay. Motion has been to continue the Public Hearing until the 18th of
February. Any further discussion? Hearing none, all in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion
carried. Okay. The 18th will be in February. Okay. Thank you.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES, ONE ABSENT
Item 12.
Discussion of Administrative Lot Split Ordinance:
Corrie: Item Number 12 has been moved to the Pre-Council Item Number 6. This is a
discussion on the Administrative Lot Split Ordinance. At this time, we will hear staff
comments on that.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank, Mayor, Members of the Council. The city over the last several
years has received -- well I guess I don't know how many requests, but many requests
from developers to be able to split a single parcel or lot of record without going through
the subdivision process. As you know, by the time you run through the city's process on
a subdivision and, then, get the appropriate agency signatures and get it recorded, you
know, the average eight to ten month period is there, as well as the typical requirements
for all of our subdivision improvements, curb, gutter, sidewalks, street lights, et cetera.
The City of Meridian is unique in the valley in that we don't have an administrative lot
split ordinance, that if somebody comes in, they meet an established set of standards,
they are able, just through a record of survey, to be able to split a parcel. This has
come up numerous times and Gary Smith in the Public Works Department can speak to
it, too, if you have any questions. Our new Planner, Wendy Kirkpatrick, has done quite
a bit of research on this research and she's here tonight if you have any questions.
Generally, the reason this was on the Pre-Council was to -- before we go into a lot of --
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 25 of 30
a lot more research and actually development of the ordinance, if the Council is
supportive of staff coming forward with an amendment to the Subdivision Ordinance
that would allow us to provide this option, this tool, if you will, to the development
community. We did not include any details on the proposed draft ordinance at this point
in your packets. A few highlights, maybe, would be worthwhile, so if you want to hit a
few highlights of what we are looking at, Wendy.
Kirkpatrick: Sure. Let's see. With the proposed one-time division lot split ordinance,
basically, if you have a parcel of record or a subdivision lot that has not been changed
in size since we updated our Zoning Ordinance or Subdivision Ordinance, you would be
allowed to do one split of that property. The two parcels or lots that would be created
both have to meet dimensional standards from today's code. The applicant would be
required to come in for a pre-application meeting and during that meeting we would go
through, make sure that they met the dimensional requirements before they were out
the expense of doing a record of survey. When they came in to apply, they would come
in with complete application fees, record of survey. It would be an administrative
application, we would notice all affected agencies in case there were any complications
with ACHD, road access, public utilities, and if all those findings were positive, then, we
would be able to recommend approval and they could do a one-time division.
administratively, rather than going through hearing.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: How does that compare, Wendy, to the other communities with their
administrative lot splits? Do they also limit them to just the one time --
Kirkpatrick: Correct. The City of Eagle allows a one-time division. The City of Nampa,
Canyon County, Ada County, all allow a one-time division. This is similar to -- and
usually, the parcel of record is tied to the adoption of the ordinance. That's when you
establish the original parcel size and when you're allowed to -- generally allowed to do
one split from the time that parcel was created.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: Just two more comments. One is when you have a draft, it would be
helpful, -- I know you can probably name the people who have an interest in this.
Please submit that to them for their comments. This is going to be a tremendous
economic development tool. I think if we look at being a little bit more receptive and
accommodating to some of these -- this job base we are hoping to create, this will
certainly help these individuals who are out marketing our community to come back with
something more viable, because they have a little bit more flexibility. I sure appreciate
your work in doing this. What a nice way to start.
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 26 of 30
Kirkpatrick: Thank you.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: If you could I guess remind me. It seems like I recall language in the State code
that requires a Public Hearing to do a subdivision.
Kirkpatrick: If you are creating -- Councilman, if you are creating three or more lots --
Nary: Okay.
Kirkpatrick: -- you are required to go through a Public Hearing for a subdivision.
Nary: Okay so, it doesn't -- the parcels don't have to be of equal size, they just can't be
smaller than whatever the minimum lot size has to be. That's what you meant by--
Kirkpatrick: Correct. They both have to meet minimum standards, both of the lots or
parcels created.
Nary: And I didn't hear you mention Boise and allowing -- does Boise have Public
Hearings on all of them? Is that what they -- is that why --
Kirkpatrick: I believe the City of Boise also has administrative splits. Actually, I don't
have a copy of their ordinance with me to verify that.
Nary: And maybe in working through the process -- I think I -- I recall getting a phone
call from the Moscow City Attorney on this very issue, because they were wrestling with
the same idea and having that -- and I guess whether it's you contacting him or Mr.
Nichols or his office contacting him. That they were having some issues as well and it
wasn't just over it being three lots. I don't recall what it is, but you may talk with them,
because I think they have just recently gone through this process and so that way they
may be able to give you some guidance as to what worked for them as well. I would
agree with Councilwoman de Weerd, I mean I think as long as we can do it legally, I
can't see a real down side. I guess the part I would have the most discussion about is
there are situations that I can envision neighbors being very concerned that suddenly
they are building what they thought was a fairly large parcel next to them, now has two
houses on it, that they didn't realize there was going to be a second house and no one
notified them, to at least give them the opportunity to object before hearing.
Kirkpatrick: And that, actually, would be part of the notification process of notifying
adjoining neighbors.
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 27 of 30
Nary: Okay. I didn't hear you say adjoining neighbors. I heard you say agencies so
that's why I was concerned that we weren't going to give some sort of radius notice to
the neighbors. Yes, that would be the only other issue I could think of that would be of
concern.
Corrie: Any other comments? Well, I think that's our marching orders there. Okay very
good.
Item 7.
Discussion of Open Vision Fencing:
Corrie: Item Number 7, discussion on the Open Vision Fencing. Discussion? Brad.
Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council. This is largely just an
interpretation issue, I guess, that staff is wanting to receive some feedback from City
Council on, so that we can give consistent information. It has to do with public safety,
really. These two ordinances that are on the screen right now are from our Landscape
Ordinance. The top one requires that if you have a micropath, which is defined on the
bottom there, a micro path is a pathway providing access by way of a short travel length
between points of destination, it's not -- it's less than 250 feet or two lot depth. These.
are -- we are seeing more and more of these micropaths in our subdivision plats. What
we require there, halfway through that top paragraph, is solid fencing is used and shall
not exceed four feet in height. The developer is responsible for the construction of the
fence adjacent to all micropaths and, then, they have to note it on the Final Plat. The
issue that's coming up is as developers come in, they comply with our ordinance, they
put in a micropath, they pave the middle of it, they landscape it, they put up the four-foot
fence. A future lot owner comes in, buys the lot that is adjacent to this micro path and
they want to put up a lattice work on top of this four-foot fence to keep their dogs in, to
keep people from looking in their back yards. If they don't get approval for that,
occasionally, they will construct a six-foot fence inside the four-foot fence and keep that
-- so we do have people coming in, occasionally, to get the -- you know, the
interpretation and it does say solid fencing and it shall not exceed four feet in height. I
guess what we are coming up with is, is lattice work considered solid. We have taken a
couple of photographs here to kind of -- kind of visualize this. These are taken at
Bridgetower Crossing Subdivision. You can see the micropath here. Here is a four-foot
fence, two feet of lattice work on top. Their point is this lot that's on the end -- that's on
the other side of the micro path is more marketable, because they have a little -- it's a
semi-private fence, instead of giving most people great visual into it. You can see Dave
McKinnon standing here on the backside. That is Dave, isn't it?
Nary: There must be a berm there.
Hawkins-Clark: So, the question is, is that visual enough if you're walking along there?
We have had some complaints of these being in places where at night people can hide,
kids can smoke, you have -- do whatever -- whatever the issue is. That's the whole
reason for having four-foot to give, you know, more visual access into these micropaths.
This is a photograph taken in Wilkins Ranch Subdivision. Peregrine Elementary, the
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 28 of 30
new elementary school, is here at the far end of the micropath, so it gives kids the
opportunity to walk from Wilkins into the elementary school. As you can see, there was
-- the developer complied, they put up a vinyl fence along the micropath. The
homeowner on the right has constructed a six-foot solid fence inside their property line.
The property owner on the left has still left it open. We, actually, have a request
pending for this property to be able to construct a fence similar to their neighbor. Not
that the City Council needs to really go in depth in this specific issue -- I mean on this
specific case, but the question is should the interpretation be that lattice on top of a four-
foot solid fence provides adequate safety for pedestrians on the micropath. Our
interpretation has usually been, well, if you have a planned development, like
Bridgetower did, they specifically asked for it, we said, okay, you can do that. There are
other cases where, you know, this lattice work, if you go to Butte Fence, you know,
there is different elements. I mean you can see two-foot squares -- or two inch squares,
you can see one inch squares -- you know, the degree of visual open visionness is
going to change depending on the lattice work. When we wrote the ordinance, our
feeling was, well, it's just easier to enforce a four-foot solid fence and that's it. If you
come in and you want to purchase a lot, you know the fence is already there. It's been
built by the developer, if you have needs that a four-foot fence isn't going to work for
you, you have a large dog or something like that, then, you just don't buy that lot, you.
look elsewhere in the subdivision. We have typically said four-foot is it, no lattice work,
but we are receiving more of these requests and mainly just wanted to get some other
feedback from Council.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: Having served on that committee, I would stand by what the intent and what
is written, that you can't do that. There is definitely a safety issue that is created with a
micro path and that is one reason why we ask for the height limitation, as well as a visual
-- to not be a solid, so you can see through it. I don't know what the rest of the Council
feels, but I would say the intent of how we wrote that ordinance should still remain
today.
Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: I don't know if Chief Worley has any input as well from the police standpoint, but I
guess I would agree from Council Member de Weerd's standpoint that the biggest
concern with these micropaths is creating these tunnels and the safety risks of people
being able to use them. You know, that's why they generally have to be straight you
have to be able to see from both ends, you don't want bends in them and such, so that
way people don't have hiding places. Certainly, like you're saying in Bridgetower with
the lattice on the top, I think is a compromise in that type of application, that's pretty
reasonable. Like where the -- you showed there in Wilkins Ranch and Ponderosa
Meridian City Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 29 of 30
Elementary, that double fencing is definitely not the intent of the ordinance at all and
that is a -- that does -- it can create a risk and in that scenario, that may be -- that might
be reasonable. I mean I'm not trying to decide that, but I'm saying in that scenario
where at least, you know, there is a long path and you have only got a small portion of it
that's going to be fenced, then, that's fine. If you go to, for example, a micropath that's
on Sandalwood to Linder Elementary, it is fenced the entire way and there is no -- there
is no way to see in that pathway at all from either side, that I think is where some risk
occurs. I think there is other micropaths the same way they have got fencing along that.
I mean I can see on a case-by-case basis at least trying to wrestle with this
circumstance where you at least have some space. What I have seen is not only this
risk factor be created, but the weed factor that's happened from this double fence is that
you have a real nice strip there for weeds and nothing else. I guess I would agree with
Council Member de Weerd and I think Council Member McCandless said the same
thing, was that that was the intent, was to make sure that we had open vision. That's
not open vision, unless there is some circumstances that we could articulate as to why a
portion could be fenced off. I knew you wanted to have something to say, since you
were here.
Worley: Thank you, Councilman. Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, I would concur-
with what -- the Council's comments. I don't see a problem with the lattice work. I don't
think that materially detracts from the intent of the ordinance. Certainly, this six-foot
solid fence -- and Chief Bowers may have some comment about the fire hazards that
may crop up with the weeds. Certainly this does create a vision blockage this way,
whereas the lattice work I don't think materially affects what we are looking at there, so I
guess I would say that this compromise I could support, but the other one, no.
Corrie: Any other comments? Discussion?
Nichols: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nichols.
Nichols: Mr. Mayor, if I can ask a question of Council. If you look at the fence on the
photograph, the lower portion also is not solid, and perhaps that has some impact in
terms of looking at how you define that in the ordinance. Certainly, somebody that's
walking is going to be seen, even if they are only four-foot tall, whereas the bottom
portion of the fence isn't solid, because you can see that shadow that passes through
there. Perhaps you might give some consideration as to whether that needs to be part
of the requirement, too, along these micropaths is perhaps some spacing is allowed
between the staves, so that there is some vision where the folks that have got the four-
foot yet.
Corrie: Okay. All right. Any other comments? Good. Okay. That concludes the
regular meeting of the Boise -- or Meridian City Council. I didn't say that. Is there any
other thing that Council has?

Nary: Mr. Mayor?
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: We received a memo from Mr. Beeler of Waddell & Reed and as well as Ms.
Smith regarding this issue of deferred Compensation Plan and I wondered if you have
an opportunity to have that discussion. He's asked us to reconsider a decision we
made a few weeks ago. Ms. Smith gave a certain time line of some of these things and
I guess I didn't know if we were going to have an opportunity to have a discussion about
this at Pre-Council next week or the week after.
Corrie: I would suggest we do it next week at Pre-Council. I will put it on the Pre-
Council agenda. There is some things that we are still working out with that one, so --
Nary: That way we can run it by Mr. Beeler and -- great. Thank you.
Corrie: Thank you. I talked to him Monday.
Nary: Great.
Corrie: Okay. With that, I will entertain a motion, then, for the close of the Meridian City

19. The recent adoption of the Comprehensive Plan changed the land use designation
of the property from "Existing Urban" to "High Density Residential" on the City's Future Land
Use Map. Furthermore, this is being developed as part of an existing apartment complex to the
south.
20. It is found that all development on the subject property will be in hannony with
the existing (High Density Residential) and intended (High Density Residential) character ofthe
area. The design and the construction of the proposed apartment complex are very similar to the
existing apartments in the general vicinity and will not change the essential character ofthe area.
21. It is found that the re-zone to R-40 should not be disturbing to existing or future
neighboring uses. Specific uses allowed (either permitted uses or conditional uses) within the R-
40 zone may be disturbing to future or existing neighbors; however each development will be
required to comply with the approval requirements of the Meridian City Code.
22. It is found that the proposed uses will be adequately served by all essential public
services and facilities.

FOR CREEKSIDE ARBOUR II I (RZ-02-008) - 6
23. It is found that the requested uses will not create excessive additional
requirements at public costs for public facilities and services. Additionally, it is found that the
proposed rezone would not be detrimental to the economic welfare ofthe community.
24. It is found the R-40 zoning designation of the property does not inherently allow
uses that will generate activities, processes, materials, equipment, and conditions that are
detrimental to the general welfare ofthe community.
25. It is found that the proposed R-40 zoning will not interfere with general traffic
patterns on any public streets. The lot does not have direct lot access to Fairview Avenue;
however a shared access to Fairview Avenue (to the north of the subject property) has been
approved by ACHD as part of an earlier apartment development proposal.
26. It is not found that any natural or scenic feature will be lost, damaged or destroyed
by approval of this rezone.
27. It is found that the zoning amendment would be in the best interest of the City by
allowing a property owner to make improvements to the property that would otherwise not be
allowed without re-zoning the subject property.

Will and Sharon,
I was in a meeting today with Sheldon of the Ada Co Assessor's Office (Land Records Division). He requested a
copy of the ordinance that changed E. 1st Street to Main Street. Would it be possible to mail him a copy? I'm
sorry, I don't recall his last name. But his address is 200 W. Front, Boise 83702.
Thanks!

Okay, back to this discussion. My sincerest apologies for dropping the
matter in my stack of stuff to do, but there are so many fires burning
around here sometimes............
Apparently Ada County has a need for a recorded document in regards to
our Street Name Change from 1st to Main. Karie Glenn asked me in
December about it, and Brad H-C asked last week. We need to do a
summary & resolution as a matter of "clean-up" work.
Bill, we wanted to check with you on procedure -- Do you want this

From:
RECEIVED
JAN 3 1 2003
City Of Meridian
City Clerk Office
CC: City Clerk, Gary Smith, Brad Watson
Date:: January 31, 2003
Re: Area of City Impact Boundary Adjustments
The purpose of this Pre-Council agenda item is to discuss the City Council's position
on the potential release of approximately 17 acres within our Area of Impact to Boise
City and the potential acceptance of approximately fIVe (5) acres from Boise City into
Meridian's Area of Impact. The attached map shows these three areas.
Initial discussions have been held between the Public WorKs staff of both Meridian
and Boise City regarding the serviceability of these areas. The recommendations
are primarily based on the ability of each municipality to serve the lots with sanitary
sewer.
At their December 3,2002 meeting, Boise City,Council held a public hearing on the
Ranchos Los Altos and Muir Woods Subdivision lots. Hovvever, they removed the
applications from the agenda due to the fad that the City of Meridian had not
formally acted on the lots currently within Meridian's Area of Impact. The 8.6 acres
east of Bremerton Subdivision (between Victory Road and Amity Road) were not
addressed by Boise City but would be a part of a City of Meridian-initiated
application.
If City Council directs staff to proceed with the application to amend the Area of
Impact, we will set the applications for a Planning & Zoning Commission hearing.
Per Idaho Code 67 -6526.e, the Commission must make a recommendation to the
governing board and then, after the Council's action, a renegotiation meeting is held
with Ada County on the new boundary.

MEMORANDUM
January 29,2003
To: Honorable Mayor & City Council
From: Leslie Howard, MUBS Manager
Re: Utility Billing Directive
On January 27,2003, I met with Gary Smith and Rick Clinton to discuss the
concerns of Mayor & City Council of keeping the billing directive as well as
discuss the suggestion of assessing a fee to pay for our efforts in administering
the billing directive brought forward by Bill Nichols.
The MUBS staff conducted a survey to find out if other utilities charge a
connection fee; Idaho Power charges $15.00 to go and read the meter at the
time the customer moves out. If they turn the power off at that time they will
charge $15.00 more to go back and turn it on. Intermountain Gas charges a
$14.00 initiation fee, this charges covers a technician taking the call to go to the
residence and turn the gas on and light any pilot lights. Owest charges a $30.00
hookup fee to start service.
At this time the MUBS department currently has 417 billing directives on file that
we are honoring and prior to the elimination of the billing directive we had
approximately 800 active billing directives.
If MUBS were to assess a fee for the billing directives, we recommend a $35.00
charge be assessed to the property owner or renter to compensate for time and
wages of the staff and alleviate this program from being subsidized by other city
residents. This fee was determined using the turn off fee increase study from
July 2002. We have calculated it will take 15 minutes of MUBS time per billing
directive and two trips of a water department employee; one to read, turn off and
lock the meter and one to re activate service.
A concern of Councilman Nary was the amount of people that were lodging
complaints, if it was a few very vocal people or many. Unfortunately the MUBS
department does not have sufficient data to report to council since we did not
foresee that we would be addressing this issue after the decision was made to
eliminate the billing directive.
In conclusion, the MUBS department feels that this is a good customer relations
to provide this service for our property owners, property management companies
and renters.

Tabled from January 21,2003: Discussion I Decision on MUBS
Billing Directive:
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 2 of 17
Corrie: The third item is tabled from the January 21, 2003. It was Discussion /
Decision on MUBS Billing Directive. Who is doing the MUBS Gary?
Smith: Thank you Mr. Mayor and Council Members. I believe that you have in
your packet a memorandum from Leslie concerning some additional information
on this subject. If you have any questions beyond the information that she's
provided to you Leslie is here tonight to help answer those and Rick Clinton is
also here.
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Yes Mr. Nary.
Nary: Gary one thing I noted in Leslie's memo and whoever you think is the right
person to answer but it appears to me we've cut the amount of billing directives
almost in half in about six months. From 800 to 417 so we've significantly
reduced it and I guess I'm still not convinced by this memo that people won't get
used to it like anything else they'll get used it and then they're never going to get
100 percent satisfaction anyway.
Smith: Right.
Nary: But that people will get used to it and instead of stopping it and now
allowing it to essentially creep back up again even though we may consider
collecting a fee for it we're just going to perpetuate the same problem. The
problem a year ago was staff time. We're going to have to always readjust the
fee to try to recoup staff cost.
Smith: Yes.
Nary: We're going to have to revisit the fees yearly. We would have to revisit the
directive periodically. I think that was another issue that was raised before was
that we don't always know when the property transfer and the sole from one
person to another so we have to revisit these periodically. Again creating more
staff work versus now where we've cut it in half by just eliminating it entirely. I
just - I guess I just have a hard time thinking that year from now we wouldn't
have it cut in half again. Eventually we would eliminate it entirely and where
would we be bad off by doing that.
Smith: Thank you Mr. Nary I think those are good questions. I'm going to turn
that over to Leslie because she's had kind of first hand information with it.
Howard: Mayor and Council I agree with you. We were brought here to address
Mr. Horton's questions when he brought bringing the billing directive back before
you. Yes, I belive bringing the billing directive back would eliminate a lot of the
problems with the property management companies and some of the property
owners. Yes, we have cut them in half however we are still hearing some
complaints from property management companies and property owners. At this
time, we have asked them just to submit something to us in writing about their
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 3 of 17
feelings on this. We're just going to stockpile these into a folder in case they're
needed later on down the road. What I'm looking for tonight as well as my staff is
just a decision on which way Mayor and Council would like us to go. We are
prepared either way at this point. I'm looking for your opinion on this matter just
to address Mr. Horton's concerns so that we can move forward.
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Well I guess then I read your memo and your memo actually isn't just
asking for an opinion it's requesting to change back with some other
modifications to this billing directive thing. I guess, like I said I'm not convinced
that we're not always going to have some people that are inconvenienced by the
fact that they have to maintain the program themselves. That if we had been
able to cut the amount of billing directives in half in less than six months then I
still have a hard time seeing why that isn't a benefit to the city in itself the less
staff time it takes to manage all the billing directive. Eventually, whether it's a
year or two from now that we can eliminate them all then that seems to me would
be allowing your staff more opportunity to do the other things of their jobs the
collections and the likes and processing all of this stuff. As our user system
grows it seems kind of dangerous to kind of create this more staffing even with a
fee attached to it create more staff work necessary to manage these billing
directives as the system grows larger. We would want to eliminate this because
just managing the system and users in the billing and the processing all that of
just the system itself it seems like that's only going to get busier. By adding this
on top of it even with a fee that's just going to add more staff or more necessity
for staff or more staff being stretched to their limits. Right now, we told Mr.
Horton no. He didn't like it, but we told him no and we were fine with it. I don't
know how many other people have made that request from you but again I'm not
convinced that this is still in the best interest of the city to change back to a
system that we were trying to eliminate to relieve the time it takes to mange it.
Howard: Go ahead I'm sorry.
De Weerd: I just wanted to make comment. I guess what I'm trying to ascertain
from all of this is, is keeping public or customer service in mind what is the most
efficient way we can do this. Now, this might take your staff more time but in the
long run because of the number of complaints that you have stated you have had
will it be actually less time or is it just a matter of the users getting used to the
system. Then that will diminish over time the amount of staff you're using to
address the concerns, the complaints and all of that. Ultimately, we just want an
efficient process that is fair and accruable and the ratepayers do not end up
subsidizing a program to provide customer service to these renters. I see it on
both sides and I'm just not convinced yet which one is going to be most efficient
and still achieve the goal of providing good customer service.
Howard: Mayor and Council with doing - when we started eliminating the billing
directive we did receive a lot of complaints. We could only come up with about
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 4 of 17
20 property management companies and just a few off the top of our head as to
customers that were complaining and asking for this to be reactivated. I'm
looking at it from the customer service standpoint. Property management
companies are now calling us asking us what their bills are faxing us a sheet of
all the property addresses that they manage and we have to go into the computer
and look these things up and send them to them if they didn't get the bill directed
to them. We have reduced staff time a little but not totally on that. My standpoint
is more customer service than anything.
Corrie: Let me jump in here with my boots on. Having had the complaints come
into my office coming across the hall and everything else my feeling of this is
what we need to do as far as what the public wants and not necessarily what we
always want. I think the service to the customers would be better served in the
option one than option two just saying we're through you do it all and we're not.
It's kind of a my way or the highway type thing and that's one thing I don't like
about it. I think that if we're looking at it for customer service the option one will
work. I hear some of the calls that's coming in here and I'm convinced that the
option one that the customer service renter agreement will do the job. I don't like
the idea like I just said that you do it our way whether you like it or not. That's
where I'm coming from. I'm not going to get a vote here I can tell you that
because we're not going to be tied but just so that you have my feelings on this
that option one in my case and what I'm hearing from the public would be the
best way to go. A lot of less headaches for MUBS and my department doesn't
make any difference they calm down by the time they talk to me but they're still
upset about it. I guess the only (inaudible) I've really heard from is Cherie's and
have you got anything that you want to discuss?
McCandless: Mr. Mayor J'm still trying to make up my mind. I guess I don't
understand why it's so difficult. Why one doesn't just bill all the owners of the
property and Jet, them worry about getting that money back from the renters. I've
never understood why it was so difficult.
Corrie: I guess you could do it that way.
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Yes I mean I think the reason is is because we used to do it the other way
and that's why there's - nobody was complaining from what I at least understood
a year ago. The property owners weren't complaining by having this billing
directive. What was told to us was that it was creating a lot of staff time in trying
to manage all of these billing directives. My perspective is is that this system is
only going to get larger. It's not going to get smaller. We've approved numerous
multi-family dwellings so we're going to have more - this really deals a lot with
especially apartment types of complexes and that's the type of property
management things isn't that right. It's like apartments?
Howard: No.
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 5 of 17
Nary: Okay just property management of homes.
Howard: Yes.
Nary: Okay. As the rental market grows, property management companies find
it very difficult to have to guess how much the water bill is and charge that, as
their rent is the base thing. That's the way it was done before we did billing
directives. They're only complaining because we've made it more work on their
part. The reason we took it off the city was because the users are subsidizing
the system because now with that alternative of what they're raising (inaudible)
well we're going to charge the property manger they are the people who want
this billing directive they're going to have to pay a fee for it. That way kind of
striking that balance that at least, the users aren't paying for the system or even
paying for this management system. Again, I don't see that it's - I guess to me
ultimately the users of the system are not in option to the billing directive - the
users of the system aren't subsidizing involved other than the cost of staff time to
manage it. What I think we've heard both times from Utility Billing is that the staff
time maybe as we have thought it would been significantly less it's just different.
Instead of managing the billing directives, we're managing the phone calls. Is
that fair or is that -
Howard: Yes.
Nary: -- we've transferred the work from one method to a different one. That's
where I think was why they're asking is saying well instead of us having to have
our staff manage all of these calls where people are very angry or bothered why
don't we find this compromise which is this billing directive that they have to pay
a fee for to then allow for some options. It's not free it has - it's not going to cost
the users anything. I understand all of those things but to me when we've cut the
amount of them in half eventually the objective was to eliminate them entirely. I
think as people get used to it they'll get used to it. I recognize the Mayor's point
is that we're trying to be customer service oriented as well and this kind of a
compromise.
De Weerd: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mrs. de Weerd.
De Weerd: I guess maybe there's been a shift Mr. Nary in staff time but probably
in a more unpleasant way. If the same amount of time is being expended, we
certainly would like happier staff than - I guess -
Nary: That would fall in the be careful what you ask for category.
De Weerd: Exactly. We know how that can go huh. I guess one thing I would
like to see if we could clarify. As you've seen both systems work now how -
what is the end result? Is the collection or the payment of the water bill better
one way or another or are they both the same as well?
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 6 of 17
Howard: It was probably better with the billing directive because the tenant
received their bill, they paid it and the only time we dealt with the property owner
and tenant was when they were moving in or out of the property. I hope I
understood your question.
De Weerd: Well then I think if the payment seems to be a little bit more prompt
or on schedule and we're providing better customer seNice and we're charging
to compensate for the time it take which we weren't able to do the other way. We
weren't recouping that staff time to take the complaints and that sort of thing then
it just makes more sense to go back to the Utility Billing Directive. You have fine-
tuned it so that there are - it will be more efficient we'll be compensated for the
extra staff time it will take and we should be sensitive to the customer seNice
that we're trying to provide. I would agree with your recommendation Leslie to try
this again, reevaluate it, maybe after six months see if it's actually accomplishing
the objectives that we would like it to do. If it is paying for itself and just, give it
another chance. I guess that would be my recommendation.
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: I guess I would support that only if we were going to do a couple of things.
We have a proposal and a policy change. I guess what I would find to be more
consistent so that we can apply it more consistently. Then we also have a
method to point the customers to as well as authorities so it isn't something that
every time someone has heartburn we're going to have to revisit this at Pre-
Council (inaudible) have an ordinance to establish what the process is, create the
procedure and have an ordinance that we can put in our code. Then one, it
helps the Billing Departments so that they can show the folks here's the city
ordinance that determines what it is required here and is very clear in this
ordinance and we have a fee structure. We can revisit the fees as necessary.
We have a method to in which to do that but that way we just do this once be
done with it and not have to - that it's clear in the structure is what it is. I think
what's proposed here is real good I think it needs a little more discussion as to
how often. Like I brought up how often do we want them to redo this? Do we
just want people to redo it when they sell their property how are we going to
know that? Do we rather do it annually that they have to come in annually to do
it? Do we have on a notarized statement of ownership do we want proof of
ownership how is that done? I think if we're going to do that I think we want to at
least put it in our ordinance make it clear we do it once. We can have a Public
Hearing if we want to it doesn't matter but rather than just doing it as a policy
directive I think we do it as an ordinance but we flush out exactly what the
protocol is and we put it all in the ordinance and just do it once.
Corrie: It means less chance of having to change it all the time that's for sure.
Nary: Exactly.

Corrie: Mrs. McCandless.
McCandless: Mr. Mayor I can go along with what Bill just said if that's what it
takes.
Corrie: Okay I think we're pretty well agreed we could use it. We just need to
put it in a form of a motion how do we want to do this, make it an ordinance, and
go with that form itself. Does anyone want to --
Nary: Mr. Mayor sure. I'll move that we move forward with this billing directive
request by Utility Billing that they work with the staff and our City Attorney in
presenting this in an ordinance form for adoption into the City Code. To include
all of the protocol regulations necessary to enact this type of billing directive
including a fee for the service.
De Weerd: Second.
Corrie: Okay motion been made and second is there any further discussion?
Nary: I'm just going to add to the motion [ know that Mr. Nichols' office is very
busy I don't obviously wanted the language very long but I'm not in a big hurry a
month or six weeks or whatever is necessary to get that done is fine. Is that
okay?
Howard: Yes.
Nary: If they know something is coming it's better than -
Howard: Yes.
Nary: -- since this would be a new fee we would have to advertise for the fee
anyways so Mr. Berg pointed out we need at least two weeks to advertise for the
fee anyway.
Nichols: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council I think we can get something
together and then you can have your hearing on the proposed ordinances along
with the fee schedule at the same time. We would probably provide that the fee
would be set by resolution would be the one thing that's more easily changed
than the ordinance in terms itself.
Nary: So all I wanted to add was just four to six weeks is not a - not urgent but
that way it give some timeframe so that we would have time to advertise.
Corrie: Is that all right with the second?
McCandless: Oh, you bet.
Corrie: Any further discussion? All those in favor of the motion say aye.
Opposed no. All ayes motion carried thank you.

Tabled from January 21 J 2003: Discussion of Lee Centers
Project (fka Powder River Subdivision):
Corrie: The next item is tabled from January 21, 2003 the discussion with Lee
Centers Project 25 minutes. I hope you guys can do it in that time because I'm
going to cut you off. We've got three other things right after that so can you do it
Clint?
Boyle: I will do that. I'll just stop mid-sentence if I have to.
Corrie: Okay you're on.
De Weerd: Just three minutes or less.
Boyle: Suggestion though it's only a suggestion. Good evening Mayor and City
Council Members Clint Boyle with Pinnacle Engineers 12552 West Executive
Drive in Boise. I appreciate your time this evening. I'll get right to the point on
this since I realize your time is limited. We had a discussion at the past City
Council Meeting regarding a piece of property that is located on the east side of
Linder Road approximately a half mile south of Victory. This particular property
consists of a total parcel area actually there are three different parcels of 152
acres that is owned by Lee Centers. Currently, this piece of property is zoned
RUT Rural Urban Transition in the County. There we go. Maybe we'll get there
staff is pulling up a map. This particular piece of property has had an application
before you in the past that was denied by the Ada County Board of
Commissioners based on comments received from the City of Meridian mainly
related to Wastewater Treatment Systems and other issues. What I want to
emphasize tonight is that what we put in front of you and what Gary Smith has
put in front of is several different scenarios. We've worked very closely and have
spent many hours with your staff in working on the issues surrounding
development of this particular piece of property. We've met with the Planning
Department with Public Work's on several occasions. We've also met with the
County we've met with the Fire Department, Fire District Committee Meetings
and if - we tried to work out as many issues as we can. That's why we're here in
front of you tonight because Mr. Centers obviously this time around wants the
city to be comfortable with whatever he presents to Ada County so that he will
have a good feasibility in getting the project approved. With that, I want to jump
into the scenarios real quick. In the spreadsheet, that I passed out is essentially
a synopsis of some of the comments that Gary Smith has provided to you in the
scenario sheets that he provided to Council.
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting

Page 9 of 17
Nary: Mr. Boyle I-don't mean to cut you off but I guess one of the things - you
know that the information we received from Gary Smith we just got today?
Boyle: Right.
Nary: Mr. Bird isn't here tonight and probably will be in a couple of weeks. I
don't necessarily want to put Mr. Centers off necessarily either but this is a fairly
significant project for the City of Meridian it was the last time it probably will be
this time. I don't want you to waste your time and have to go through this again
but I do think I guess for me I would like to have Mr. Bird's input. I don't know
timing wise how that works for you or your client you wanting to put this off for
three or four weeks but one I haven't had any opportunity to digest what you just
handed as, as well as what Mr. Smith sent us. I really would like to have Mr.
Bird's input and involvement in this as well. I would hope he'll be here within
three or four weeks but - so I don't want to waste your time but I just want you to
if you want to give us your spiel tonight you can and we're really going to want
you to come back and talk whenever the rest of us - everybody's here. What are
your thoughts is there a timing issue that is fairly critical? I don't want to put Mr.
Centers behind anymore either.
Boyle: What Council day I guess would we be looking at if we were to postpone
this again is there a specific date that -
Corrie: Well we would be looking at most likely either the 4th or the 11th. It
depends upon his recovery. He would probably - four weeks would be a pretty
good shot to take however, not foreseeing anything that can come down the
pipe. If the Council, Mr. Nary, and I talked to some of the others, they would like
to have all of us in on this because this is a very important scenario that you're
doing. If you do it now you won't have the opportunity to do it again. We're
looking at the 4th or the 11th with all medical procedures following in line. Now
that's the question that we need to have you and Mr. Centers - can you hold off
till that? If you can't you probably will have to anyway not saying that you don't
but if they want all four Council people here then you will be that before
(inaudible) anyway. You can come up here Lee if you want to talk to.
(Inaudible discussion amongst Council Members)
Nary: The 11th is probably the safest bet just because it's a little further.
Corrie: Well knowing what I went through and I was younger than he is it - four
to five weeks is necessary to really have the strength.
Boyle: I'm back. Clint Boyle again for the record. Yes, I discussed that with Mr.
Centers and obviously there - it doesn't sound like there is going to be any
decision tonight. He still would like, since we're here to just present the
scenarios to the Council that's here, maybe get any feedback on any items that
are in particular interest to the members that are here tonight. We'll try to be

brief tonight and then present to the full Council in a month or whatever is
appropriate on the-
Corrie: Okay it's up to I mean you've got to quarter till so you've got 15 minutes
now.
Boyle: Okay. The scenarios that you have in front of you I'm just going to briefly
run through. What we put together are scenarios and we've worked again with
the staff on these different options as well. They've developed some pros and
cons from what the staff, also the developer sees, and then I have a spreadsheet
just kind of summarizing that. Scenario Number 1 out on this particular piece of
property would be the development of the property under the Rural Urban
Transition at five-acre lot sizes. That is the standard dimensional standards per
Ada County. Essentially, what you would end up with is a subdivision that
consists of 30 lots that were five acres each. Now with that as far as the type of
service provisions, out there water and sewer would be provided with individual
well in individual septic systems on each lot. The ACHD requirements since
these are over an acre and a half in size we would be allowed to develop it their
rural standards which means that it would just be an asphalt section with barrow
ditches on either side rather than your standard curb, gutter and sidewalk. As far
as fire protection again, fire protection there would not be any sort of hydrant type
system available for fire protection. This particular option minimizes the amount
of infrastructure that the developer needs to place in the project. However, with
that minimal amount of infrastructure the developer also doesn't realize is great
of a return as he potentially could on something that was more of an urban type
development. As far as the pros and cons to that to the City of Meridian, you
know Gary Smith has listed some of the pros that we discussed with the City of
Meridian. That the City of Meridian review time on the project would be fairly
minimal and there really wouldn't be any cost to the City of Meridian for this. As
far as the cons on that, five-acre development obstructs future extension of
utilities in the area. It conflicts with the Land Use Plan and the goals and policies
for urban type development in that area. The first scenario really I guess is
probably the most detrimental out of all of these from the city standpoint as well
as the developer doesn't want to have to perceive in that fashion if he can help it.
The next scenario is an RUT cluster. Again, this is allowed with the existing
zoning that's in place. Ada County allows you to cluster lots in an area in one
area of the overall site and with that clustering of lots you can have double the
number of dwelling units that you normally would get if you developed with five-
acre lots. Therefore, we would end up with 30 buildable lots. Based on their
standard regulations under the RUT cluster those lot sizes have to be between
one acre, an acre, and a quarter. If we clustered those lots each lot would be
roughly an acre in size and chew up 30 acres of land then the remainder would
be in a reserved open space area, which is somewhat interesting right now
because, Ada County is also amending their Zoning Ordinance that would - what
essentially would happen there is that open space would be reserved open
space until such time as there was a rezone to an urban zone. It actually - the
proposed amendment that they have would not even require municipal or
community services to be extended which has been the case in the past. Again,
30 lots one acre in size as far as the street sections again with this particular
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 11 of 17
development under the Scenario 2 it still isn't at the urban type of standards.
ACHD would require curb and gutter your standard street section but only require
sidewalk on one side of the street. Again, that applies in ACHD's policy manual
for lot sizes between an acre and an acre and a half. As far as fire protection,
again with Scenario 2 the lots could be developed with individual well and
individual septic systems that's with the cluster even. Again, fire protection
you're not going to have the hydrant service available with that option either.
You will not have - you'll lose the option of a community well, community water
system and community sewer system potentially. Scenario Number 3 this cluster
development that Mr. Smith has titled as community services and he's right.
With that one, again this is another scenario that's allowed by the County Zoning
Ordinance by the RUT zone. What it says is that a developer can come in,
propose a smaller lot sizes, and come in with a more compact development if it's
in line with what the city wants to see for densities in that area. Again, your
Comprehensive Plan signifies this area as three to eight dwelling units per acre
for single-family residential. This particular option the developer essentially
would come in with a proposal at say eight to 10,000 square foot lots and again it
would cluster. It would decrease the amount of land that's eaten up with the
cluster development. With this type of development, the county requires the
development to be on a community sewer system. Option Number 3 the
difference is you can go to smaller lots in accordance with the cities Comp Plan
but you do have to provide a community sewer system. Now they do not specify
that you have to have a community water system so again depending on the size
of lots that comes in, lets say Mr. Centers decided to utilize this option. He may
actually be able to still provide individual wells and again that would be
determined based on soil types and the size of lots. Obviously, if you got down
to 8,000 to 10,000 square foot lots then he would have to go with a community
water system that's Scenario Number 3. Scenario 4 would be a rezone of a
portion of the site and that option is what's in front of you here on the exhibit
would be something that would demonstrate that. Essentially, what would
happen is there would be a rezone of approximately 17 acres to an R-4 zone and
the remainder of the site would remain in an RUT designation. With that rezone
the developer again would go in, put in a community well, community sewer
system, you would receive your standard curb gutter and sidewalk type of
facilities. With this as far as fire protection again with this option if a community
well is designated then the developer would just provide a single point draft
station, which essentially would be one connection point for the Fire District. If
the city were to enter into an agreement which would essentially a first right of
your refusal or an option on the well and have the developer construct that so
that the city could take that well over in the future if they desired. Then there
would be the option there to install your standard hydrant system out in that area
as well. That's kind of briefly Scenario 4, which is an R-4 development now. I
just want to expand on that real quick here I think I have about five minutes left is
that right? Just to expand on that real quickly the city well option, which has
been an option that has been discussed previously with this Council, is an option
where the developer would be willing to enter into that agreement with the city.
Obviously he needs to - the more lots that he can obtain within this area that
more that he can spread his costs out if he's going to actually construct a well to
city type standards. Again, he's proposing in the rezone 39 lots and then the
Meridian City Pre-Council Meetfng
February 4, 2003
Page 12 of 17
opportunity to come back before the city at a future point and propose further
rezones of the property. The final option, which is Scenario 5, would represent
the entire build out of the project. Let me just flip my map over. As you can tell
this is the most colorful option. This particular proposal and this is just a rough
representation of what it may look like would represent the full development of
the project. What the developers indicated is with this development it would
entail roughly 455 residential lots and if a Preliminary Plat were approved by the
county for a development of this nature he would be willing to construct and
dedicated the well to the city so there would be no cost to the city for that well.
He would also be wiling to dedicate the park area and I just want to point that out.
I don't have my pointer here so maybe I can swing this around. The developer is
willing to dedicate in addition to that a park site, which would be in the eastern
area of the subdivision. In addition to that, there is an existing easement that is a
gas line easement it's all under ground. He has an BO-foot corridor over that
area that he also has proposed as just open space or common lot. He would be
willing to also dedicate that to the city so they would actually have a greenbelt
pathway connection that would extend from Linder Road and could potentially tie
into other areas further north that would give a nice greenbelt pathway right to
the park in the east portion of the site. Now the advantage we discussed this
with the staff and then that park location that he would be willing to dedicate to
the city is somewhat central to the subdivision and there was some discussion
that it would function more like a neighborhood park. The rea] advantage here is
since it is on the border of his property on the east side down the road when
further development occurs south of Meridian and parcels adjacent to this
develop there would be the opportunity to obtain additional park land adjacent to
this depending on you know what the city wanted to see. If they wanted that to
be a larger park area within this particular area, that access is fairly easy access
back to the park on the proposed collector street. That collector street can be
modified to run to the park very easily. Again this is another option the -
obviously with this proposed project if he came in with a Preliminary Plat there
are constraints with the Black Cat Trunk Extension. The developer again
realizes that yet he also realizes that he has been in the urban service planning
area for Meridian for 10 years now based on the 93' plan and he just wants to be
able to recover some of his costs in the land and then be able to move forward
with the project. If he would have come in with something like this with this type
of development and the city supported something like this he would enter into the
agreements on the well to dedicate - construct and dedicate the well to the city.
Enter in agreement for the park site of the potential greenbelt if the city desired it.
Again, this would help to mitigate - I noticed the staff indicated that one of the
cons was that they wouldn't receive any park impact fees. Well he would be
willing to give them a park area with a greenbelt. Then the other item here is he
would also be willing to enter into an agreement for annexation when the city was
contiguous which could be recorded on the plat as well as in the CC&R's and any
other agreements for the city. Finally, with this particular option he would be
willing to have more of a slow managed growth if the City Council saw fit where
he would even be willing to say slow the growth. To where he would only be
allowed, to bring in a certain number of lots per year until such a time as either
annexed or that Black Cat Trunk were available. Those are the scenarios that
are out on the table and I know Gary outlined a lot of the pros and cons that
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting .

we've discussed. I appreciate the staff time that's gone into this I know they've
worked on this quite a bit. I've had quite a few discussions with them on that and
it sounds like we'll be back in front of you again but just wanted to at least
present our case and hopefully get you thinking about the project a little bit.
Corrie: Okay. Anybody have any questions right now? Let's schedule this as a
come back time for Pre-Council presentation of March the 11th. COU ncil have
any heartburn with that one? Okay great?
Boyle: Okay.
Corrie: Thank you very much appreciate your-
Boyle: Can I just bring up one more point? If the Council had any other issues
that they felt they want to discuss it would be nice to kind of know, get some input
on what those were. I know we talked about fire protection at the last Pre-
Council but if there are any other additional issues we've got some time here to
check into them.
Corrie: Okay I'll make it (inaudible) centralized that they can bring it to me. I'll
see that you get it as soon as I get it. That will give you a chance to work it all in
by that time. If the Council will just bring them to me, I'll see that you get them
that same time.
Boyle: I appreciate it.
Corrie: We'll have them all itemized for you.
Boyle: Okay thank you.
Corrie: Thank you.
Item 5.
Discussion of City of Meridian Initiated Area of Impact
boundary adjustments and Comprehensive Plan Amendments
for 8.6 acres at MuilWoods Subdivision, 5.3 acres at Ranchos
Los Altos Subdivision, and 8.64 acres east of Bremerton
Subdivision:
Corrie: The next item is the discussion of the Meridian Initiated Area of Impact
boundary adjustments and Comprehensive Plan Amendments. I guess that
would be you Brad. Okay.
Hawkins-Clark: Good evening Mayor and Members of the Council. You should
have received a memo from myself dated January 31st that kind of summarizes
the background on this. The Public Work's Departments of City of Meridian and
Boise City met several months ago to discuss several properties along our
eastern area of city impact boundary. Which ones mayor may not be
serviceable by one or the other jurisdictions. That's sort of the origination for
these specific parcels that I was going to talk to you about tonight. The Boise
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 14 of 17
City Council - we have two properties and I'll just kind of point them out here on
the screen. We have Overland Road on the north side and then Victory is in the
middle of the screen -
***End of Side One***
Hawkins-Clark: -- Eagle Road is on the left and Cloverdale is the right boundary
here. When the area of city impact boundary was created in 93' they basically
just took a quarter mile from Cloverdale a quarter mile west and took a straight
line at that quarter mile mark. Essentially, what was created was a couple of
areas where the existing subdivisions were included in Meridian this MuilWood
Subdivision is approximately a little over eight acres. There are several lots in
there that are already being serviced by Boise City. They are part of MuilWood
Subdivision a majority of which are of the lots are already annexed and in Boise
City. The discussion there was just to - City of Meridian would release that 8.2
acres from our area of city impact and Boise City would then add it to theirs.
There's a portion of Ranchos Los Altos it's just about a lot and a half. It's a little
over a five-acre lot. It's a five-acre lot subdivision all of which is in our area of
impact except for that one lot. Again because of that straight line it kind of
chopped off that lot so that would be included potentially in Meridian's area of
impact. Then Bremerton Subdivision is another Ada County Subdivision south of
Victory Road about a quarter mile. There are 8.6 acres that the Public Works in
their analysis looked at likely sewering to Boise City instead of Meridian. That
would be another parcel release by Meridian. Boise City Council did discuss
these or they had them on an agenda recently and generally aware and agree
that staffs are in agreement that the city who's got the area of impact should go
ahead and move ahead first with an application. [f the Council is comfortable
with moving ahead with these, we'll prepare an application to release them.
Boise City would proceed with the five-acre one that would come into Meridian. I
did talk briefly with Mr. Nichols about the process on this and we are in
agreement that the Comprehensive Plan would not need to be amended for the
two that we're releasing since we would not need to designate a new
classification or anything we can just adjust the area of impact. On the property
that we would be taking in, we would of course need to amend our Land Use
Map to designate it as a single-family residential in the Camp Plan so we would
probably run that one through. There are a couple of others further north that are
also divided by a property but because they are less than 300 feet in width we're
allowed through the State Code to just at upon development that can go one way
or the other whichever city has the greater half of a split parcel. As long as it's
less than 300 feet, we don't have to do a formal area of impact adjustment.
Anyway, we're just looking for basically a nod one way or another from Council
on staff proceeding with these applications.
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Brad maybe I missed what you said on this 42 acres here that was already
okayed by Boise?
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 15 of 17
Hawkins-Clark: No, no we are just at this point in time talking about the
Muirwood Subdivision and the property east of Bremerton.
Nary: These three.
Hawkins-Clark: Those would - right.
Nary: So currently the impact boundary line would - it goes straight down here
and then we were basically wanting it to jog this direction, then back this direction
over here and then jog that way.
Hawkins-Clark: That's correct.
Nary: Now are these the properties that I called you about in December because
they were on the Boise Agenda at the time or is this a different one?
Hawkins-Clark: Yes.
Nary: Has this one been discussed with Boise then this 42-acre piece here?
Hawkins-Clark: I have had just one discussion with Boise City staff AI Simmons
and he is in the process of doing some research on their end as to confirming the
issues with their Public Work's Department. Certainly we wouldn't have any
action on that until they would de-annex and then adjust their area of impact
should they go that direction. He has not given a firm direction yet.
Nary: I know we've had some discussions about that 300-foot issue. Is that - do
you feel that's pretty well decided? I know there's a state law that talks about the
300-foot difference when it's on either side of the boundary line. It's not - I guess
it hasn't always been clear to me maybe it's clearer to Mr. Nichols as to when it's
on the 300-foot issue and whether or not we have to go through any of this
adjustment at all or it can just be done at the staff level or we're just not worried
about that tonight. That's just on the other areas north is that right?
Hawkins-Clark: Yes I was referring to just two properties that are north. They
are about an acre a piece and it's you know if you have a single piece of property
under singe ownership for example this piece here. Should the line come bisect
it north and south if less than 300 was in our area then the whole property would
go to Boise City. I've not heard anyone question that interpretation of that. In
this case you know we're dealing with smaller lots that aren't bisected they're just
completely outside of the area.
Nary: Thank you.
Corrie: Any other discussion?
Nary: Mr. Mayor.
Meridian City Pre-Council Meeting
February 4, 2003
Page 16 of 17
Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: I guess I would make a motion that maybe we can between us and Boise
get this on a list in a year, year and a half (inaudible) we've been through enough
we should be able to get this done. I would move that we release those two
pieces - those two parcels that are within our area of impact so that they can go
to Boise, the County, and the rest of the process but that we approve the removal
of the sections that are part of the Muirwood Subdivision. Then the sections as
part of the Bremerton Subdivision to be released to the Boise area of impact. Do
we need to do anything regarding the Ranchos Las Altos accepting that yet or do
we need to wait till Boise releases that or would you like just to put that on the
record now that we will accept it when it's released?
Hawkins-Clark: Mayor and Council I would recommend we just wait until we
receive the notice that Boise City has acted on their -
Nary: Okay so my motion was simply then to release the 8.29 acres of Muirwood
Sub and the 8.64 acres of Bremerton Sub to be released to move to the Boise
area of impact.
De Weerd: Second.
Corrie: Motion been made and second is there any further discussion? Hearing

Corrie: Mr. Nary.
Nary: It looks to me if it would be all right that our agenda tonight is fairly short.
If it would be alright with staff I would ask that we simply move 6 and 7 to the end
of our Regular Agenda and then that would give us a couple of minutes to break
before we could start the Regular Meeting on time if that would be all right.
Corrie: Staff any comments?

City Clerk Office
The purpose of this Pre-Council agenda item is to discuss the City Council's position
on the potential release of approximately 17 acres within our Area of Impact to Boise
City and the potential acceptance of approximately fIVe (5) acres from Boise City into
Meridian's Area of Impact. The attached map shows these three areas.
Initial discussions have been held between the Public Works staff of both Meridian
and Boise City regarding the serviceability of these areas. The recommendations
are primarily based on the ability of each municipality to serve the lots with sanitary
sewer.
At their December 3, 2002 meeting, Boise City Council held a public hearing on the
Ranchos Los Altos and Muir Woods Subdivision lots. However, they removed the
applications from the agenda due to the fact that the City of Meridian had not
formally acted on the lots currently within Meridian's Area of Impact. The 8.6 acres
east of Bremerton Subdivision (between Victory Road and Amity Road) were not
addressed by Boise City but would be a part of a City of Meridian-initiated
application.
If City Council directs staff to proceed with the application to amend the Area of
Impact, we will set the applications for a Planning & Zoning Commission hearing.
Per Idaho Code 67-6526.e, the Commission must make a recommendation to the
governing board and then, after the Council's action, a renegotiation meeting is held
with Ada County on the new boundary.
