The alley operates as ONE WAY, westbound. The applicant is proposing to change the alley to ONE WAY east bound. Staff supports the directional change, however, this will require the applicant the pave the alley from the site's east property line to 2nd Street to keep gravel from being tracked out onto the roadway. Coordinate the signage plan alley paving with District staff. , .~._~:;I:~ B. On April 24, 2000, the District Planning and Development staff inspected this site and evaluated the transp0l1ation system in the vicinity. On April 28, 2000, the staff met as the District's Teclmical Review Committee and reviewed the impacts of this proposed development on the District's transportation system. The results of that analysis constitute the following Facts and Findings and recommended Site Specific Requirements. ":;,;itl C. E. 15t Street has 17,392 existing vehicle trips per day which is a Level of Service F (LOS F). An acceptable Level of Service for this segment ofroadway is D (LOS D) or 12,500 vehicle trips per day. The proposed application will add approximately 100 vehicle trips per day on E. 1 sl Street. D. The East First Street/Pine Street intersection operates at a Level of Service D (LOS D), and is listed as one ofthe 100 critical intersections in Ada County. The subject site's additional traffic is not anticipated to decrease the Level of Service at the intersection. E. In 1998, the District conducted an analysis of the downtown roadway sections of Meridian. The District recognizes the level of congestion on E. 1 sl Street and developed several alternatives for long term improvement. These alternatives have been submitted for review by the City of Meridian and other affected parties. A final determination has not yet been made. F. The applicant has applied for the vacation of the western portion of the alley (approximately 100- feet) abutting the project. The vacation request includes a proposal to dedicate a new, north- south alley to from E. 1 sl Street to Pine Street. The alley intersection with Pine Street would be located approximately 1 DO-feet east of East First Street. The District will review the alley vacation request under a separate agenda item. 0.. ,~ l G. Request for Variance: The proposed new alley intersection with Pine Street shows that the alley intersection with Pine Street would be located approximately 1 DO-feet east of East First Street. Cun"ent District policy requires a minimum intersection offset distance of 175-feet from the signalized intersection with East First Street. The indicated variance is requested because there is no location on the applicant's site which meets District policy. Staff supports the requested variance for the ,:::" following reasons: ":-. .,- . The alley traffic will connect with a collector street, Pine Street, instead of an arterial, E. 151 Street. Pine Street is a lower volume road.

At the south property line of the site, the alley is proposed to be east-bound. · The proposed intersection aligns with an existing driveway intersection on the north side of Pine Street H. The site has an existing curb cut driveway on E. 15t Street that is not proposed to be utilized by the site. District policy requires the applicant to close any unused curb cuts on E. 15t Street and Pine Street abutting the project site. Any new construction should include curb, gutter and sidewalk to match the existing improvements. If the alley is approved for vacation, the applicant should also be required to close the alley/E. 1 S[ Street approach. Coordinate the alley vacation with the District's Right-of-Way staff. ~,J -<~ ""'~ ~~:r:~ 1. The transportation system will require improvement in order to accommodate the additional traffic generated by additional development. Additional traffic will exacerbate the traffic problems. The reconstruction of East First Street is not listed in ACHD's Five year Work Program. However, the District has developed a plan to convert East First Street to one-way northbound operation. Meridian Road would serve as the complementary one-way southbound operation. The Transportation system would be adequate with this roadway configuration proj ect.
