Re: Generations Plaza - Alley Vacation
Shari: I have reviewed ACHD comments on this proposed vacation. The direction of
traffic flow through the existing City parking lot, as proposed by ACHD, is opposite to
how the lot is designed. This proposed reversal would require:
1. Restriping of the parking spaces.
2. Changing of the planter curbing to match the direction of the parking spaces.
3. Changing of the entrance/exit signage.
I wonder if the direction of the alley could be reversed so that the vehicle
direction in the City lot can remain as is.
I have previously corresponded to ACHD concerning the existence of a City sanitary
sewer line in the alley and the need to maintain an easement width equal to the
present dedicated alley width.
As a side note, it is interesting to read ACHD's comment that E.1 st Street has a Level
of Service (LOS) F, without this Generations project. Also, that the E.1 st/Pine
intersection has a LOS 0, which qualifies it as one of 100 critical intersections in Ada
County. I guess, since we all drive these roadways, these two facts are not a big
surprise.
Please transmit these comments to whoever needs to
re~ewthem cfr~ h-~

to review and make a recommendation on Vacation applications. A public hearing is only required
before the City Council.
SITE REQUIREMENTS
1. The City has an existing sewer main in this alley. If the vacation is approved, the applicant will
be required to provide an easement to the City for maintenance of this line. The easement
agreement shall include provisions that, should the sewer line need to be repaired, all costs to
replace improvements on applicant's property will be borne by the applicant.
2. Prior to the issuance of any building permits on the subject lots, applicant must submit
relinquishment of easement letters from all applicable utility companies to the City of Meridian.

Re: Alley Vacati.on at Generations Plaza IT
The vacation of the alley between Pine and Idaho Streets next to Generations Plaza II is on the
Council Agenda for August 15.
Please accept the following staff comments in regards to the alley vacation;
(1. We support the alley vacation with the lll1derstanding that it primarily benefits the
developer and they should be responsible for the improvements and maintenance of the
alley. Especially since the Cities half of the alley is serving as the developers sidewalk.
2. There seems to be some confusion on the approved traffic flow through the Cities parking
lot, the developers new parking lot and the existing alley. See attachments A, B, and C. If
option A or B is adopted, the developer should be responsible for changes to the Cities
parking lot including redirecting, parking space lines and islands.
3. The issue of who is paying A.C.H.D. the $10,400.00 value for the alley needs to be
resolved. Originally, the developers were proposing to exchange an easement through
their new parking lot for the value of the alley (see attachment A) and the City would, in
turn, reimburse the developer for our half of the vacated alley. The City COWlcil
suggested the developer pay for the Cities half since it is being used as the developers
sidewalk.
4. After reviewing the alley traffic flow plans at the A.C.H.D. board meeting in August, it
was suggested that the easement should be through the Cities parking lot on Pine Street.
Staff suggests that the developer would then owe the City for there half of the vacated
alley.
