Mayor Tammy de Weerd
De Weerd: I will go ahead and call the regular City Council meeting to order. It's
Tuesday, April 13th. Would like to welcome you all here with us tonight. We will start
with Item No.1, roll-call attendance. Mr. Berg.
Item 2:
Pledge of Allegiance:
De Weerd: Item No.2 is the pledge of allegiance and we will ask Dave McKinnon to
lead us.
(Pledge of Allegiance recited.)
Item 3:
Community Invocation by Alex Chamberlain, St. Luke's Chaplain:
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. McKinnon. Usually, we do have Boy Scouts lead us and
since he was the next closest thing -- thank you very much. One of -- you have now
participated in one of the additions to our regular agenda is the pledge of allegiance.
Item No. 3 is our community invocation. We added this to -- as also to enhance our
meetings, put things in perspective. We have asked faith of all walks to lead us and be
a participant in this part of our agenda and so have made an effort to reach out to all of
the belief systems to be represented and to involve them in our community as they bring
resources to our community that will help us make Meridian the best place to live. With
us tonight is Alex Chamberlain, he is S1. Luke's chaplain. Will you, please, join us.
Chamberlain: I must say, it's a pleasure and an honor to be in your house and I'm sure
you'd rather meet me here than in my house.
De Weerd: Yes.
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 2 of 30
Chamberlain: Let us pray. In this season of spring, we thank you, our God, for love and
for life and for all the new life we see in creation in this time of year. We thank you for
the rain that is now fallen and pray that it gives hope to those who earn a living from the
land. We pray your blessing on tonight's meeting, that this Council will be open not only
to the fresh starts and new beginnings that come in nature, but the creativity that you
foster among individuals and groups when they look in your direction. Help these
Council members listen to the whispers of your spirit and provide leadership for the
community, as they try to anticipate growth, with all the challenges and opportunities
that this involves. Alongside the growth, Lord, help them to hold fast to core values and
traditions that make this town such a worthwhile place to live. Help them honor the
needs of the elderly, as well as the aspirations of the young. May those who come to
speak do so with openness and conviction. May those who listen do so with
attentiveness and respect. And may all who come away from the meeting do so with a
sigh of satisfaction and the knowledge that their services to the community involve time
and commitment well spent. We pray in the name of the Lord, the One who loves us
best, Amen.
Item 4:
Adoption of the Agenda:
De Weerd: Thank you very much. Okay. Item No.4 -- Alex, generally we give our
guests a city pin and I assumed in my absence when you were here last time that you
were presented with one of our very coveted watertower pins. So, thank you very much
for joining us. Thank you. Okay. Item NO.4 is the adoption of the agenda.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: We do have some on the Consent, which I'll do when we make the motion on the
Consent. But on our regular agenda, Items 14, 15, and 16 need to be tabled to 4/20/04.
And Items 18 and 19 needs to be tabled to 4/27/04, because they were improperly
noticed. So, I think we have to have -- can they do it the 20th?
Berg: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, they will just be re-noticed and we will
put them on another agenda. It will probably be in May the soonest we can do it with
the 15-day notice.
Bird: So, I change that to just a date uncertain at this point.
Berg: Yeah. They just were not noticed properly, so they are not really able to have a
public hearing.
Bird: And what's the resolution number, Mr. Clerk?
De Weerd: Item 20.
Wardle: 04-428.

De Weerd: Item NO.5 is the Consent Agenda.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I would move on the Consent Agenda that Items A, B, and C be moved to 5-A, 5-
B, and 5-C, that Item G needs to -- we have a typo in it. It's a CUP for a drive-thru and
it's shown as a nursing home. So, if we would make that note and have the papers
changed, the attorney says that we can do it and keep it on the Consent. . And Item H
needs to be tabled to 4/20104, because we do not have the findings. And with that, I
would move that we pass the revised Consent Agenda and the Mayor to sign and the
Clerk to attest on all proper papers.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to approve the Consent Agenda, with
the noted changes, in particular Items A, B, and C to be moved to the regular agenda.
Is there any further discussion? Mr. Berg.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Nary, yea.

1. Discussion on Sign Ordinance Issues by Joe Venneman,
Code Enforcement:
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Item 6 is Department Reports. Planning and Zoning.
We are -- oh, I'm sorry. Item 5. I passed right by it.
Bird: No. You're fine.
Rountree: Seven.
Bird: Seven. I made a mistake, Tammy. I couldn't read. It was seven.
De Weerd: Okay.
Bird: Move those to 7 -A, B, and C.
De Weerd: So, that was five. Okay. Department Reports. Is there any further
discussion or action needed on the sign ordinance?
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I believe that was just a duplication
error.
Berg: It was in case of running out of time.
Nary: In case we ran out of time on the pre-Council, so --
Powell: Okay. 80--
Nary: The clerk doesn't make errors.
Powell: I should have known.
De Weerd: Okay. If there is nothing further--
Powell: Unless the Council would like to give further direction I can -- okay.
B. Public Works
1. Request to Purchase Water Meter Radio Read
Equipment:
De Weerd: Item B from Public Works, request to purchase water meter radio read
equipment.
Watson: Thank you, Madam Mayor, Council Members. I trust that you have a memo,
dated 4/8 from me in your packets, along with some other materials attached to that. I'll
just briefly describe this and, hopefully, you have had a chance to read that and if you
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 6 of 30
have any questions you can certainly ask those. What this is, is an opportunity to go to
an automatic -- an automated meter reading system. It's called radio read. I guess
that's a slang. But it's a computer that is housed in a van that drives down the street
reading meters as it goes. We were probably going to propose this as part of our FY05
budget enhancements anyway and include it in our currently strategic plan update, but
the vendor that sells these systems, who is the same vendor who we buy our meters
from anyway, has given us until April 30th -- I guess what you would call a discounted
starter kit deal that would save us about 7,000 dollars. The starter kit would include
some computers -- a computer, some software, and it would also include 50 meters that
would have the radio transmitters for them. So, in the interest of saving 7,000 dollars,
we thought we would come to you ahead of next year, because we really think this is
the way we are going anyway. There is an economic analysis attached to this memo
that shows the increase of meter readers that will be required over the years. In fact,
next budget year we either need to move to this radio read system or hire a fourth meter
reader. The analysis shows -- looks like about six -- it shows six full-time meter readers
in 20 years. We are currently at three. This economic analysis was just an exercise to
show that the technology cost would be less than the labor cost over that 20-year
period. According to the analysis that our staff engineer Lynn Grady did, the cost
savings would be around 700,000 dollars and, as I state in that memo, the actual out-of-
pocket savings that the city would see is nearly 1.9 million. However, the flip side is that
with the meter reader that the builder, as part of the building permit, they would be
required to pay I think it's 90 dollars per meter to equip it with the transmitter. So, we
tried to look at it on a community-wide scale, what the savings would be to the
community, both builders and the city, and that's that 700,000 dollar figure. The one
other thing to point out in this packet is we do have a letter -- I asked civil science
engineers to take a look at this system that we are proposing. They had some
experience with it down in Utah and he gave it -- I guess I would consider a glowing
report. So, with that I will entertain any questions.
De Weerd: Council, do you have any questions?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Brad, the 23,000, is there already money available in the budget and is there
something else that's not going to get purchased with that, if we purchase this now?
Watson: Council Member Nary, [ was going to touch on that and I forgot. Thank you
for reminding me.
Nary: Oh. Okay.
Watson: I talked to Rick Clinton, our superintendent, and we have a base budget figure
for meter sales and meter purchases every year and given the building growth, building
rate this fiscal year for -- we are going to be way over both the revenue and the meter
purchases for this year, so even if we don't do this, our actual meter costs will be
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 7 of 30
negative. I mean we are going to go way over budget on meters this year. Conversely,
we are going way over budget on meter sales revenue as well, so, I don't know, the
short answer is there is not a specific line item designated for this equipment right now,
other than meter purchases.
Nary: Madam Mayor, one more question. Brad, in the first paragraph when I'm reading
it, is the savings to the city that you're trying to say in here 710,000 dollars over a 20
year life term or with the current -- it says with the current population projections through
2023, so over the 20 years, you really think it's an actual savings of 1.87 million dollars.
Those are fairly diverse numbers. And, then, in the last line I assume it's just a typo,
because it says: However, the 710 thousand million figure is the actual savings. That
would be a great savings, but I think that's probably a typo.
Watson: That's a military budget. You're right. That last million definitely should not be
in there. The 710,000 is the savings to the city and the building community combined.
This is almost a transfer of costs from the city to builders, because they are buying this
automated radio transmitter with their meters, so rather than us paying for labor, they
are paying for technology. That out-of-pocket to the city, we projected almost 1.9
million.
Nary: Okay. Great. Thank you.
De Weerd: I guess this follows the message we heard earlier from Dr. Freilich to start
looking at how growth can pay for itself. Any further questions?
Bird: I have none.
Rountree: None.
De Weerd: Okay. Do we have any motions?
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I move that we approve the request for radio meter reading in the amount
23,000 dollars.
Bird: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to approve the request from Public
Works. Any further discussion? All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion carried.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
C. Mayor's Report
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
Aprill3,2004
Page 8 of 30
De Weerd: Thank you. Under the Mayor's Report I just had a follow-up from last week.
In front of you you have approximately 65 employees who have reached different
milestones in their longevity to the city. Noteworthy are at 25 years. I believe it's
Lieutenant Trackel and also -- also in the police department Gene Moore is at 30 years.
I have attached also the program that I'm recommending to City Council. Also
consistent with the report you heard tonight, you have an idea of the different levels of
service at five, ten, 15, 20, 25, and above. So, it's not 25 plus, it's at five-year
increments. But it represents -- my request is for a 3,OOO-dollar line item to implement
our longevity. Also, I have talked to you all about bringing our employees who could
join us at a City Council meeting to present certificates of appreciation for their years of
service to the city at City Council meetings and I would like to do that quarterly.
Bird: Sounds like a winner. Have you got the -- the 3,000, you got it in your budget or
do you want -- do we have to take it from ours?
De Weerd: Well, we had money for employee incentives left over in that one line item
and I'm not sure which budget the left over money is.
Bird: Is 3,000 going to cover it, Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Bird: I would move, then, that we approve taking 3,000 out of the left-over employee
benefit fund and purchasing recognition awards for years of service.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to approve a years of service
program in the amount not to exceed 3,000 dollars. Is there any further discussion?
Okay. All those in favor say aye. Okay. All ayes. Motion carried.
MOTION CARRI ED: ALL AYES.

Development, LLC - south of East Ustick Road and east of North
Eagle Road:
De Weerd: Thank you very much. I will try and get our first tier employees within the
next month and a half or two. Okay. Item NO.7 are the items removed from the
Consent Agenda, A, B, and C. I will ask staff to comment. Or is it Mr. Nichols?
Nichols: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, the applicant has asked that we
modify -- it's one of those things that once lawyers get looking at it, they get a little
nervous about. On a commercial property on the Bryson property that was part of this
annexation, there were two old homes and there is a standard condition that they are --
everything is to be disconnected from the well and septic and so forth and in the past
we have allowed, under these sorts of circumstances, the homes to remain with their
existing well and septic, because, eventually, they will be razed and the new
development that goes in will, of course, have to have those city services. So, the
applicant has asked that we modify that standard condition to except out those two
homes on the Bryson property, because of what will happen in the future, rather than to
make them hook up a home to city water and sewer and, then, just have to tear it down
later. So, that's their request. So, we would need to amend the findings to make that
change.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any questions?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: If I'm looking at the right one, Mr. Nichols, it's to adopt the recommendation of
Meridian Planning and Zoning Department, page four of 26, it looks like it's number one
and maybe number two?
Nichols: Yes.
Nary: Okay. Did they give a time limit? I guess I don't have a big concern. I think the
intent, though, is that those are going to move along and development is going to occur
and something's going to happen and we are not just annexing property that's going to
continue to be residences for a lengthy period of time. So, did they give any indication
as to what time period they were looking at?
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 10 000
Nichols: Councilman Nary, they did not, but perhaps Ms. Stiles may have more
information on that.
De Weerd: Ms. Stiles, would you like to answer that? Please state your name and
address.
Stiles: Sheri Stiles, Engineering Solutions, 150 East Aikens Street, Eagle, Idaho.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Stiles: The houses that are there are -- I don1t know if you have seen them, but they are
not likely to stay there for long. The property is far too value and with the Winston
Moore and all of the surrounding annexations on that corner, I'm sure you're going to
see Mike Cavin's 40 acres come in on that northeast corner of Ustick and Eagle. But I
don't have a time line. They really don't have any plans of what they are going to do
with the property. Alii can say is common sense tells me that that's not going to remain
for long. They are going to have to -- you know, I would think that some of the homes --
the homes would be in such disrepair that they might require a building permit and at
that point they wouldn't be able to get one, so --
De Weerd: Any questions?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: And I don't know if it's a question. I guess who can tell us, that would be, I guess,
the question, because I wouldn't have a concern in removing or at least modifying that
condition to set some time limit, but I want to know what's reasonable and I agree with
what you1re saying, is that it's probably not very long, but it's not very long -- 90 days, is
that -- 180 days? Is that a year? Or is that five years? I don't know what they think is
reasonable and I don't know what the property owners think is reasonable. So, that's
what 11m struggling with. I don't have -- I mean it makes perfect sense what they are
asking. It seems silly to hook these homes up to the sewer and to the water, when in
some fairly short period of time they are probably not going to be residences any longer,
but I just don't know what that is and I wouldn't -- at least for me, I wouldn't agree to
remove it or amend it, unless I knew that it was a fixed period of time and I just don't
want to pick a number out of the air and I'm sure you don1t either, Ms. Stiles, because
that's not fair to your clients, but I don't know what their expectation is and so maybe
that's -- that's something we could have before we amend it, rather than us picking an
arbitrary number.
Stiles: I don't think they will be able to give you a number, you know. Offers are made -
- it could be 90 days, it could be two years. I don't know, but --
Powell: Madam Mayor?
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 11 of30
Stiles: It's a big expense for those people, but just -- that, actually, just helped get the
Redfeather Estates Subdivision annexed and to expect them to hook up, like 7,000
dollars apiece, when the services will have to be removed and -- new services, because
they won't have the right connections, I cannot give you a number. I wish I could, but I
can't.
De Weerd: I guess what Council has been asking is maybe they can't give a number,
but give a time frame. I know we have had several septic systems displaced because
of right of way and road improvements and we have put conditions on them that they
have to hook up within a certain time period and so I think it's been --
Nary: Only once.
De Weerd: Only once?
Nary: Yeah. Only once.
De Weerd: In the last five years?
Nary: Right. Only once have we done that and the last one that came, I don't know,
two weeks ago, three weeks ago, we said no, that it would have to hook up. So, I mean
I understand your dilemma, I really do, and I understand the reason that Redfeather is
here is because those people were nice enough to let their property be included, but we
can pick an arbitrary number, but they may not like it.
Stiles: Excuse me. Madam -- I'm just not used to seeing you there. It's weird.
De Weerd: That's all right Neither are they.
Stiles: Maybe Brad could shed some light on it or give you his opinion of -- I did talk to
him today and he agreed that it's generally understood when they make that comment,
that it's upon redevelopment of the property and not the day they get annexed.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: One thing to bring to light is once these are annexed and zoned, they go
commercial, they are going to start paying commercial taxes. I don't think they are
going to have those houses there very, very long. I would have no problem with two
years. I don't know how the rest of the Council and, Mr. Nary, how you guys feel about
that, but I would have -- I don't see setting a couple of houses -- old houses out there
when they are paying commercial tax, which they will once it's zoned and annexed.
De Weerd: Brad, did you have anything to add?

Nary: I think Anna did.
De Weerd: Oh. Or Anna.
Watson: Sorry. Madam Mayor, Sheri and I did speak and it sounds like we need to
clean that comment up a little better and make it a little more specific, but I don't know
that we necessarily want them hooked up, but I would -- two years, that's what was
clicking in my head, that it seems like that corner is going to go pretty quickly and, If I'm
not mistaken, if there was latitude for staff, when that two years did elapse, maybe the
applicant could come back in, if the plans were in, you know, and they weren't quite
ready at that point, if there is some -- you know, Mr. Nichols could probably speak to
that if there was some latitude of when that expires. But, anyhow, that's my only
opinion.
De Weerd: Okay. Anna.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we had a similar issue come up on a
small rezone that didn't have a development plan, it was in a very similar situation, it
was the Cortabitarte piece. I don't know if you remember that. And I think we came up
with pretty good language on that one, where it was tied -- and I don't remember the
specifics, but, as I recall, it was tied, I think, to the concept plan for the commercial
development and at that point it would need to be removed and that might be a good
solution for this one as well.
Nichols: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nichols.
Nichols: Members of the Council, on the Cortabitarte, I don't think that one was sewer.
There was a problem with where the sewer would need to be run, so I don't know how
good of an example that is. We could put together a two year limitation, if it's your
motion, that allows for a one year extension that at the discretion of staff, if good cause
is shown, something like that. That gives staff some flexibility if the plans are in. And
we probably would say the city engineer specifically.
De Weerd: Okay. Any further comment? Okay. I would entertain a motion on these
three items. Mr. Nary.
Nary: Oh.
De Weerd: You have been elected.
Nary: Well, I guess, then, I would move that we amend Condition 12-8 of the Findings
of Facts and Conclusions of Law that have been prepared to indicate, under sub one,
that removal -- where it says removal of any domestic wells and their septic systems
must be accomplished within two years of the approval of this -- of these findings and
maybe be extended by an additional year by the city engineer due to extenuating
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
Apri113,2004
Page 13 of30
circumstances -- and Mr. Nichols can probably put some additional language as to how
to define those extenuating circumstances to assist the city engineer in making that
determination. I think Mr. Watson indicated things like the plans have been submitted
and it's pending a signature and that type of thing and I think that's the only provision we
need to amend.
Bird: Is your motion approving the other two, too?
Nary: And the motion is, therefore, to amend and approve, then, the items that were
tabled 5-A -- or now 7-A, 7-B, 7-C and this would be the amendment to AZ 03-021.
Wardle: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to approve 7-A, Band C for
Redfeather Estates Subdivision No.2. Mr. Nary, would you like to restate your motion?
Nary: I'm sure Mr. Willis can if we need to. That's why he writes it down.

De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Items S, 9 and 10 are requests to reconsider a finding or
a motion from the Council and remand applications back to the Planning and Zoning
Commission. I guess I would ask for comments from staff.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I believe you have gotten probably a
lengthy letter from the applicant Mr. Wood regarding the efforts he's made in the past
few weeks since the project was denied. I do have a picture of the proposed redesign
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 14 of30
and he has met with the neighbors. There is -- there has been quite a bit of movement
on resolving the Venable Lane issue and staff is at a point where they feel confident that
we can address the Venable Lane issue on a piecemeal -- as each development comes
through. It's at a point where we can solve it now incrementally, rather than having
them come in all at the same time. So, it is, of course, your decision on whether or not
you want to reconsider it. We did feel that they have made substantial amount of
progress and have a much better design.
De Weerd: Council?
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Having reviewed the letter, I do believe that the applicant has met some of our
concerns -- the majority of our concerns. Although they didn't do that in the pre-
application process, I think they have done a good job of doing that with the neighbors,
meeting with the neighbors, and especially cooperated with the adjoining property
owners to work the Venable Lane issue out. So, certainly, I would be in favor of
remanding this to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Bird: Is that a motion?
Wardle: I would -- Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Wardle: -- move that we remand to the Planning and Zoning Commission AZ 03-036
and PP 03-042, Salisbury Subdivision NO.2.
Bird: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded. Mr. Nichols has discussion.
Nichols: Madam Mayor, if the motion and the second would also agree to rescind the
denial as part of that, because that's currently your motion.
Wardle: Yes.
Bird: Yes.
De Weerd: Okay. The motion is to rescind the denial and remand applications AZ 03-
036 and PP 03-042 back to Planning and Zoning. Is there any further discussion? Mr.

Item 11:
FP 04-019 Request for Final Plat approval of 48 Residential Lots, 18
Office Lots and 11 Other Lots on 14.58 acres in L-O zone for Sagecrest
Subdivision by Dirk L. Marcum and Michael Riggs - south of East
Overland and east of South Locust Grove:\
De Weerd: Thank you very much. Okay. Item 11 is FP 04-019 for Sagecrest
Subdivision. We will start with staff comments.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this is -- was -- this has had several
names. This was originally part of the resolution subdivision. It came through the
process as Maverick Subdivision. It's final name, we think, is Sagecrest Subdivision.
This was the multi-family and office development. This is a copy of the preliminary plat,
just the site plan. The plat itself was completely illegible, so we didn't put the
pr.eliminary plat up here. This is the final plat and you can kind of tell, it does
substantially comply with the approved preliminary plat. I believe that Briggs
Engineering and staff were able to work out the bugs and the conditions of approval
prior to the publication of the listed conditions, so they are in agreement with the
conditions.
De Weerd: And so the applicant is in agreement with all of the staff comments?
Powell: He is nodding his head in the affirmative.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, do you have any questions for staff or the applicant?
Bird: I have none.
De Weerd: Okay.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: I move that we approve FP 04-019, final plat for Sagecrest Subdivision.

FP 04-020 Request for Final Plat approval of 47 single family residential
building lots and 2 common lots on 14.32 acres in an R-4 zone for Fulfer
Subdivision No. 2 (aka Kelly Creek) by Kevin Howell - north of West
McMillan Road and west of North Linder Road:
De Weerd: Okay. Item 12 is FP 04-020 for Fulfer Subdivision No.2, aka Kelly Creek
Staff.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this came through the process as
Kelly Creek Subdivision. It's on the north side of McMillan. This is the approved
preliminary plat. The area of the final plat, if you look at that large open space there, it's
located there. My red circle is kind of small today. Sorry about that. So, that is the
general location of the preliminary plat. You may notice that the open space is a little bit
smaller there than is shown on the preliminary plat. That's just a platting issue and an
ownership issue. The staff report did point out that they had lost some open space and
they do plan on gaining that in a future phase of the subdivision. I was looking around
the audience and I don't see a letter from the applicant. To my knowledge, they are in
agreement with the conditions of approval, but I don't see a letter and I don't see an
applicant, unless this gentleman here in the blue shirt now works for JUs. So, I'm not
sure what to tell you as far as their agreement with the conditions of approval. I did
check with Steve and he didn't say there was any outstanding conditions. Mr. Fluke
usually shows up at the hearings, rather than provides a letter, so I didn't anticipate
seeing a letter, but --
De Weerd: Anna, how is that phase connected? Is it--
Powell: I believe it -- I'm sorry. I believe it ties into the -- there is another subdivision
just to the east and I forget which one it is. I'm sorry. But I believe that that's how they
are coming in. To the west. To the west of it. Sorry.
Bird: Well, then, that would be Lochsa.
Powell: Is that Lochsa?
Bird: That's Lochsa, isn't it?
Powell: So, I believe they are coming in this way.
De Weerd: No, that's -- that's the lower part--
Bird: That's his upper part of Bridgetower across --
Rountree: It's Bridgetower.
Powell: This is number two, so there was a previous phase. I believe the previous
phase was -- I don't know.

that -- is any of the area that they have done so far have that common area that's in the
center or is that phase 12?
Powell: I don't know their phasing plan offhand. It was an ownership issue, so it may
be that they don't go to the second southern ownership until a later date. This is the --
this does start at the north end -- the northwest end of the property and go down, so --
and I apologize for not knowing where phase one is.
Nary: That's okay.
De Weerd: It's not by me, but--
Nary: Madam Mayor, one follow up. I was going to say, I mean even though they are
not here to tell us if they agree or not with the conditions, the condition is all right from
your perspective and the Public Works Department's perspective?
Powell: Yes, sir.
Nary: Then, I guess they can live with it.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I have a problem with that, unless Anna is pretty sure there is no problems with
the owner of approving a final plat. If we table it, they will learn to either get a letter or
be here, unless there isn't anything controversial that Anna knows of as staff.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Council Member Bird, I had about a five minute overlap with
Steve today in the office. I know that at least two e-mails went back and forth between
Steve and Darin, so I know that they were coordinating today. I don't -- you know, I did
get a chance to ask Steve if there was any outstanding issues. He did not indicate that
there were any. I think that if you want to teach Mr. Fluke to either send a letter or show
up, that would get his attention, but I don't think it's necessary in this case. I mean I
think he did coordinate with Steve. It's not like they didn't -- as if they didn't talk today,
but --
Bird: Okay. Well, that's --
Nary: Madam Mayor?

De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: And, Council Member Bird, that's partly why I asked the question, too. I mean as
long as -- if we are comfortable with it, I guess the other way to send a message is if
they had a problem, they should have come and told us.
Bird: That's right.
Nary; As long as we are okay with the conditions and they meet our need and such.
Bird: And I agree with you, Councilman Nary. As long as our staff is comfortable, then,
I'm comfortable.
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: Hearing that, I move that we approve FP 04-020, final plat for Fulfer
Subdivision NO.2.
Nary: Second.
De Weerd: It's been moved and seconded to approve FP 04-020. Any further
discussion? Mr. Clerk.
Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Wardle, yea; Nary, yea.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Berg: Madam Mayor, just a point. Darin's usually pretty good about responding and we
did have some problems with our e-mail today, so I don't know if we might have not
connected, but I had not seen anything on my file this afternoon.
De Weerd: Okay. Anna, I guess just one thing on our final plats. There are some
subdivisions that are building out and I guess I would like to see us start paying a little
attention on the phasing to the -- how traffic -- where it's going and I know in
applications we pay attention to how many homes can be built before another access is
utilized, but how well do we track when another subdivision connects to that, that might
be exceeding that number of houses pouring out onto one access. I know I'm not
articulating that very well, but I guess when we get these phasing to see how they are
connecting with the rest of the picture.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, I do think that is an appropriate
information item to ask for, that we could -- as we are redoing our applications I think
there is a lot of information that would be very helpful that they can provide fairly easily.
I mean they know which ones they have platted and can provide us that information
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 19 of30
and, generally, they know what's around them as well. I can look at having that -- bring
that issue up.
De Weerd: Yeah. I know this area is just building out a lot faster than a lot of people
had anticipated and so it would be helpful to see how everything is connecting. And it
might even be more helpful to our safety services as well.
Powell: So, would you like to see just the facing within that subdivision, how it relates to
access to arterial roads or just phasing in that subdivision and all the -- a glimpse of the
surrounding subdivisions or--
De Weerd: A glimpse of the surrounding -- in particular, if they are going to gain access
through the surrounding subdivisions, if that's how they are getting their primary access
into their own. Any further requirements or comments? Okay. Thank you.
Rountree: That's a good point.
Item 13:
FP 04-021 Request for Final Plat approval of 36 single-family residential
building lots and 8 common lots on 12.9 acres in a R-4 zone for
Sutherland Farm Subdivision No.3 by Sutherland Farm, Inc. - east of
South Eagle Road on the south side of the Ridenbaugh Canal:
De Weerd: Item 13 is FP 04-021, for Sutherland Farms Subdivision NO.3.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council -- just a second. Thank you. Sorry.
This is the third final plat in for Sutherland Farms and the subject of the final plat is
shown in the red circle there. They have included the road -- and I'll show you that in a
moment -- to gain access to their -- they have delayed on some of the light office uses
in the back -- or in the -- to the west, so -- but we have our entrance road coming in, the
stub streets -- or the beginning of the other streets and, then, this subdivision -- or this
phase of the subdivision. It is in substantial compliance with the approved preliminary
plat and this is another JUS plat, so I'm looking to see if there is another letter. I do not
see a letter from the applicant, but my understanding was from staff that this was a very
clean plat and there was no outstanding issues.
De Weerd: Okay. Council, any comment? Okay. Do I have a motion?
Wardle: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle.
Wardle: I move we approve FP 04-021, final plat for Sutherland Farms Subdivision No.
3.
Rountree: Second.

MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Item 17:
Public Hearing: M104-003 Request for a Miscellaneous application for a
request to amend Item 15 on Page 10 of the recorded Development
Agreement for AZ 00-024 for Sparrowhawk Subdivision, which requires
all site improvements to be complete prior to issuance of a Certificate of
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 21 ono
Occupancy. An addendum to the original Development Agreement is
requested that will allow Certificate of Occupancy permits to be obtained
for the buildings (Foothills Apartments) on Lot 1, Block 1 of Sparrowhawk
Subdivision prior to the installation of the landscaping adjacent to Franklin
Road by David Waldron - north side of East Franklin Road and east of
South Locust Grove Road:
De Weerd: Item 17 is a Public Hearing on MI 04-003 for Sparrowhawk Subdivision.
will open the Public Hearing with staff comments.
Powell: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, we actually discussed the nature of
this modification to the development agreement as we were processing the
Sparrowhawk Subdivision, but we did not make it clear that we needed that, so we are
coming back and making that clear. This, for your -- to jog your memory, this is the
Sparrowhawk Subdivision on Franklin Road. As you see it, this is the area that's
currently torn up or in the process of being rebuilt. This was the recent approval and,
then, the previous approval was the apartment complex, which is under construction.
The terms of the development agreement requires the landscaping to be in prior to -- I
believe it's occupancy of any of the buildings and they are asking that it be waived to 18
months after signature on the final plat. That gives time for the Franklin Road
reconstruction to be completed and, then, they can put in their landscaping. There is
also a slight modification -- or, actually, it's just a clarification, really, about the perimeter
fencing and when and what is required and staff is recommending this amendment. It
seems more practical than putting in a lot of landscaping on a road that's being torn up
at this time, so we are recommending approval.
De Weerd: Okay. Questions for staff?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Anna, on this, though, isn't there interior landscaping? I mean, obviously, you're
right, the Franklin Road makes sense, but isn't there interior landscaping as well that
could be done? And wouldn't this waiver apply to all of the landscaping, not just along
Franklin?
Powell: No. If you look on page three, where it has the underline and strike out version,
it says: Except for perimeter fencing along the north property line and landscaping
adjacent to Franklin Road and Nola Road. So, it's just -- it just exempts out those two
items.
Nary: Okay. Great. Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. Is the applicant here? Is the testimony you are about to give the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting

McReynolds: I do.
De Weerd: Thank you. Please state your name and address.
McReynolds: Clay McReynolds, 8865 Vick Lane, Middleton.
De Weerd: Thank you.
McReynolds: Madam Mayor, Council Members, actually, Mr. Waldron was here and
when he saw I was here he asked me to step in, because he had another meeting he
wanted to attend, so -- as far as the interior landscaping, we have no intent of not -- of
not installing that. And I guess more than anything else, it's a matter of clarification.
Our concern with the apartments is that we anticipate completion of construction
hopefully in July and we'd like to be able to have tenants start moving. Additional items
of concern, I guess, that I'd like clarification on regarding this, one is after the 18 months
if, for whatever reason, the owner doesn't install the landscaping in front of the
remaining portions of the subdivision, other than the apartments, we are not going to -- I
assume our certificates of occupancy will not be conditional. She will have bonded
those improvements -- we are not talking about a conditional certificate of occupancy, I
would assume. And the other was I had a question regarding the perimeter fencing.
Obviously, we will be installing perimeter fencing around the apartments that would
match that around the remaining subdivision. The fencing around the remaining part of
the subdivision, the commercial portion, would that also be removed as a condition of
the certificates of occupancy for the apartments? And I would ask that that be the case,
because for similar reasons, that the landscaping is an issue, when construction takes
place on that remaining portion there are going to be some areas of pretty substantial
grade differentials and the construction, I think, would require that a lot of that fence be
rebuilt if the owner pays for it now, when the remainder of the subdivision is built out.
De Weerd: Anna, do you want to answer that?
Powell: Sure. Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, regarding the issue of
conditional occupancies, we did -- that is not the case. Those occupancies are good.
But it does say if the -- after 18 months the landscape improvements have not been
constructed, the city shall not issue any building permits or issue certificates of
occupancy for any structure on the property until the required improvements have been
installed, complete, and accepted by the city. So, that would mean if you have got a
building permit in process and that 18 months goes by, you will not receive a certificate
of occupancy, likewise, neither will the city issue a new building permit until those
improvements are in place. Regarding the perimeter fencing, the way it currently reads
is that the owner developer agrees that perimeter fencing for each phase of the
development shall be installed prior to obtaining certificates of occupancy within said
phase. So, for example, we would be looking for all the perimeter fencing for the
apartment complex at the time that you were seeking a certificate of occupancy for the
apartment complex. We would not, however, be looking for one on the remainder
portion, it would just be for the apartments.

Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Anna, I think what I heard him say -- the gentleman say, though, is having a -- a
bonding requirement to complete it, because although I don't know how likely it is, but
the only caveat here is the 18 months, and, then, the future building permits and
occupancy permits and that mayor may not -- depending on the nature of the project,
depending on how it gets done and how quickly it gets done, it still doesn't get it
completed. If, for example, the economy takes a downturn, they are still not going to do
it and right now I would think it would be more beneficial to have -- if we are going to
amend the development agreement, that they also, if they are willing, to agree to simply
bond to get those improvements completed within those 18 months. If not, there is
money there to get it done and accomplished, so that we don't have this eye-sore along
Franklin Boulevard -- or Franklin Road.
Powell: Just confirming with the city engineer on bonding. Typically, we get the
bonding right away -- right -- right away, as opposed to right of way, but I guess I was
never clear if that wasn't an option under the existing development agreement, but I
think that they wanted to make it clear that they wanted the apartments to go forward.
So, we could still ask for a bond in lieu of the improvements at this time or we could tie it
to a later date.
McReynolds: From my perspective I actually wouldn't have any opinion one-way or the
other. I don't have a concern that they post a bond and I'm just not articulating well. My
point was that, you know, if a bond was going to be required, that the city would have
that protection without having the ability to move our tenants out.
De Weerd: Mr. Nichols.
Nichols: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, just a remainder that a similar waiver
on 18 months was approved for the commercial part of this in the re-subdivision -- the
re-plat that was just done and so that's part of that approval is to grant the 18 month
extension. So, all you're doing is making the rest of this piece match up with what you
approved last time.
Nary: I take it by your statement, Mr. Nichols, that we didn't put bonding in that piece
either, so --
Nichols: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, at least not anything -- not anything
extraordinary, but, typically, where there is improvements that are going to be deferred,
bonding has been a requirement, so I can't say that it's not there, because it may well
be there as a standard condition.
Powell: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes.
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 24 of 30
Powell: Members of the Council, I think I was using the wrong terminology. It would not
be bonding, it would be a surety or a letter of credit is what we usually take for those.
De Weerd: Okay. Any further questions or comments? Do you have anything else?
McReynolds: No.
De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Council, this is a Public Hearing. If you so desire, we
could close this Public Hearing.
Bird: So moved.
Rountree: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to close the Public Hearing for Item
17. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I move that we approve MI 04-003, Sparrowhawk Subdivision and incorporate
staff and applicant testimony and I'm sure that Mr. Nichols can put it in the right words.
Rountree: I will second that.
De Weerd: Okay. Well, we look forward to the findings. Any further comments?
Mr. Berg.

De Weerd: Thank you. Okay. Items 18 and 19 have been requested to be delayed for
posting requirements.
Rountree: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Rountree.
Rountree: I move that we table Items 18 and 19, public hearings for Troy Place
Subdivision until April 27th.
Nary: Actually, it's going to have to be whenever it's noticed.
Berg: It's May.
Rountree: Or May. When it's re-noticed.
Bird: Second.
De Weerd: Okay. Mr. Nichols, do we need a specific motion on this if it wasn't properly
noticed?
Nichols: Madam Mayor, not necessarily, but you already have one on the floor and it's
not inappropriate to specifically address it, since it was on your agenda.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to table Items 18 and 19 to the
proper posting date.
Rountree: Re-notice date.
De Weerd: Re-notice date. Any further discussion? All those in favor say aye. All
ayes. Motion carried.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
Item 20:
Resolution No. Approval to proceed with work for tree
replacement at 1409 North Main Street by cashing the $500.00
deposit:
De Weerd: Item 20 is Resolution No. 04-428, approval to proceed with the work for a
tree replacement. We don't read these --
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: Is there an actual resolution? Because I only saw the letter. I didn't see an
actual resolution.
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 26 of30
Nichols: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, until I saw the agenda I didn't realize
there was a resolution that was referred to, because there is no specific resolution.
Nary: So, it sounds like -- Madam Mayor. I'm sorry.
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: We should probably set this matter over to next week's agenda and, actually,
have an actual resolution on this and I guess if -- maybe someone can answer the
question. Why didn't this get done? I mean it's one tree and ifs been five years. Why
didn't this get accomplished? Did it just get missed for five years?
De Weerd: Is there anyone that can --
Nary: It's just a question to the wind, I guess.
Bird: You're just getting the wind.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, my question is why do we need a resolution?
Nary: Because our ordinance requires an official action to release the bond to actually
do the work, so we have to officially do it, but I don't know why it's five years old --
Bird: That was a motion, wasn't it, Councilman Nary?
Nary: Yeah. The motion is to set that over to the next --
Bird: Second. Then we can discuss it.
Nary: Until we can have an actual resolution.
Bird: Second it.
Nary: Okay.
De Weerd: Okay. It's been moved and seconded to set Resolution No. - this resolution
for Item 20 over to next week. All those in favor say aye. All ayes. Motion carried.
MOTION CARRI ED: ALL AYES.
Item 21:
Miscellaneous Business
De Weerd: We were -- we did ask staff to come prepared this week to have some
discussion on our area of impact. I think that Brad did have something for us.

Watson: Madam Mayor, my computer was temporarily hijacked, so I'm booting up right
now and it will take --
De Weerd: Well--
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: We did have a request from the fire commission to meet on the 27th for their
comments, so I don't know -- is Mr. Watson ready to discuss that tonight?
De Weerd: He's ready to discuss the sewer end of it.
Nary: Okay.
De Weerd: And we can discuss further with the fire commissioners their areas of
impact. And while we wait for Mr. Watson, I do have a copy of kind of the final draft of
what our city pin is going to look like and --
Bird: Who selected that color?
De Weerd: I did.
Bird: That's my favorite, blue and gray.
De Weerd: That's a good thing. Just for your comment, if you have anything, you can
let me know after the meeting. So, any comments are appreciated. Okay. I think I also
had sent out to each of the Council members the Association of Idaho Cities is putting
out information requesting projects to -- for their legislation -- or legislative ideas of what
their focus should be next year and I will certainly provide input on that regarding
possible legislation and consideration for this three percent cap. Also they are looking
for entries or nominations for the Idaho Heritage City recognition and also the AIC City
Achievement award. [have asked our city clerk to look over what has been submitted
from other communities in the past and maybe get some ideas. The chief is looking into
the probation and parole partnership and I believe that Kenny is going to put something
together regarding the safe house. So, if you have any ideas of projects that you're
aware of, have been involved in, I would certainly appreciate your input.
Rountree: Madam Mayor, do they have to be projects specific? Can they be just
completed, like the planning process for downtown revitalization? Is there a category for
that?
De Weerd: I believe that Anna has talked to her staff, in particular Steve on that. I think
they would like to wait one year to show some of the benefits and the results of that.
Nary: Madam Mayor?
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting
April 13, 2004
Page 28 of 30
De Weerd: Mr. Nary.
Nary: And this one also may be a ways, but the Adventure Island playground project is
another one that I think is a very noteworthy project as well and community involvement,
but maybe after the community build that might be a better way to really focus on that
project.
De Weerd: Yes. And that was discussed at the director's meeting this morning that
certainly we'd like to highlight the community build as part of that application. That's
going to be a key application I think next year, so -- but I appreciate those ideas.
Please, if anything else comes to mind do, please, bring them up and we will see if we
can do it. I am looking at possibly submitting our transition team process. It's very
unique in the state of Idaho and it -- I'll get your comments after you see it tomorrow and
see if you would agree with me. But if you have any other ideas, I would appreciate it.
Also, just real quick, Pennwood Street and 3rd vacation is on the agenda for the
commission tomorrow night and it's something that we just approved the RV resort last
week. They had not made any motions on vacating that and staff is recommending to
not approve it. So, we will see how that goes.
Powell: Madam Mayor, just for an update, I did sign a letter -- Craig Hood wrote it and
Craig will attend the CHD hearing as well.
De Weerd: Thank you. Thank you, Anna. Also Anna put together value statements or
all of our departments participated in defining our core values. We will be giving them
priorities -- each of the department directors will be bringing that back in our May 4th
director's meeting. I will go ahead and e-mail these to you, if you could, please,
participate in looking at each of these values and giving us your top five priorities on the
statements that support each of the words. There is a number of defining lines, 36 just
for customer service, and we had a great deal of input from the staff and departments,
very much appreciated, and I would enjoy your participation in this process as well. So,
please get your priorities back to Peggy by the 27th. And it will be included in that
meeting that we have on the 4th of May. And Mr. President, you or Keith, if you'd like to
join us for part of that.
Nary: Okay. Great.
De Weerd: We would enjoy your participation.
Bird: When is this now?
De Weerd: At our director's meeting on May 4th.
Bird: May 4th. If Mr. Nary can make it, that will be great, if not I will --
Nary: I will check.

De Weerd: I don't think anyone would be opposed to having both of you. You're not a
quorum. And just a final note. I'm sure you all received the HR --
Bird: Like it very welL Very nice, Tammy. Appreciate it.
De Weerd: Thank you. That's all J had. And I believe that staff is now ready.
Watson: Madam Mayor, not really. I'm having some technical problems still, so J can
either brief you on this real quickly or we can wait until next week, but the aerial photos
evidently didn't come over with the CD. This was supposed to show the area north of
Chinden and -- the trunk lines show, but the aerial photos don't, so you don't have any
good frame of reference, so -- I apologize. We can -- either way.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I'd like to see it when he has the whole complete thing together, where we can
have the aerial photos and everything on it. I think it will have a better impact on us and
I think it would be better for Brad, too, at that point.
De Weerd: Council?
Nary: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Yes. Mr. Nary.
Nary: I guess I would agree with Mr. Bird, because I think if we do it this way, we are
going to want to hear it again anyway.
Bird: That's right.
De Weerd: And I know you just all want to go home. Okay. Is there any further
business in front of the Council? Thank you, Brad. Mr. Clerk?
Berg: Yes, Madam Mayor, there is one issue that you need to think about. By April
30th I need to submit a date to the county clerk as to when we are having our Public
Hearing for our budget, so we are going to have to look in some calendars and see if
you want it on a regular scheduled meeting or a special meeting, so we got to set a date
and I need to send it to them.
De Weerd: Generally, we have it the last Tuesday of August; correct?
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Meridian City Council Regular Meeting

Berg: Well, the last couple years you have.
Bird: I think we have had it, as you say, the last Tuesday, but I think we have had it just
as strictly a budget hearing meeting. We haven't had other stuff on the agenda and
that's the way I think it should be.
Rountree: That's a fifth Tuesday, so it works.
Bird: And I agree with that. I agree a hundred percent.
De Weerd: Okay. So, does that help, Will? I think it was just that -- and it's Shaun's
birthday, so what a great way to celebrate.
Nary: Where else would you want to be on your birthday, but here?
Berg: Would you like to start at 7:00 or 6:00 or 6:30 or a quarter to 8:00?
De Weerd: Mr. Wardle, since it's your birthday, it's your choice.
Wardle: I would prefer to start just a tad earlier. 6:00 would be fine.
Berg: Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. I would entertain a motion to adjourn, if there IS no further
discussion.
Rountree: So moved.

PAGE 3 OF 26
12. Giving due consideration to the comments received from the
governmental subdivisions providing services in the City of Meridian planning jurisdiction,
public facilities and services required by the proposed development will not impose expense
upon the public if the following conditions of development are imposed:
A. Adopt the Special Recommendations ofthe Planning and Zoning Commission as follows:
1. Do not require the inclusion of the one-acre Smitchger out parcel in the annexation.
B. Adopt the Recommendations ofthe Meridian Planning & Zoning Department as follows:
1. Removal of any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project
from their domestic service must be accomplished within two years of the approval of these
Annexation and Zoning Findings, but it may be extended for an additional year by the City
Engineer if good cause is shown, and pending development of the parcel would warrant the
extension. Wells may be used for non-domestic purposes such as landscape irrigation.
2. Prior to annexation, a Development Agreement shall be entered into between the City
of Meridian and the owners of the property to be zoned C-G (Harry & Frances Bryson and
Melvin R. and Noma E. Schrammeck Trust) that requires any future uses of the property to
be approved only through the conditional use penuit process. In addition, the agreement shall
include a requirement that either a public or private backage street generally parallel with
Eagle Road/SH 55 be incorporated into the design of future site plans. A conceptual master
plan demonstrating interconnectivity, transitional uses, access points and other key land
planning issues is required prior to any detailed CUP applications being submitted on either
the Bryson or Schrammeck properties.
The DA shall also cite the following Comprehensive Plan policies (from Chapter VI and
VII) as applicable to these same properties:
Transportation Policies Applicable to the BrysonlSchrammeck Annexation:
. "Large development proposals that are likely to generate significant traffic should be
assessed for their impact on the transportation system and surrounding land uses. They
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION
FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING REDFEATHER ESTATES
SUBDIVISION NO.2 PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
(AZ-03-021)
PAGE 4 OF 26
should be examined for ways to encourage aU forms of transportation such as transit,
walking, and cycling.
. New development should not rely on cul-de-sacs since they provide poor fire access,
walkability, and neighborhood social life. New development and streets should be
designed to encourage walking and bicycling.
. In addition to providing for enhanced automobile traffic, Meridian should seek ways to
encourage alternative modes of transport. Improvement in and encouraged use of public
transit systems is an important first step. Public transit includes bus systems and
ridesharing. By fostering such means of high vehicle occupancies, congestion on
roadways can be decreased.
. Pathways that encourage use by bicyclists and pedestrians can decrease road congestion
and add to the community's quality of life. The proposed off-street and multiple-use
pathway systems are depicted in Figures VI-3 and VI-4. New and existing developments
should ensure that the guidelines laid out in this plan are adopted.
. Eagle Road is the major north-south arterial in Ada County. The capacity of this arterial
should be protected by minimizing the number and location of private driveway access
connections to this important roadway. The City should recognize, adopt, and help
implement the Eagle Road Access Control Study, prepared by ACHD in 1997."
Mixed Use Development Policies Applicable to the BrysonJSchrammeck Annexation:
. "Where feasible, multi-family residential uses will be encouraged, especially for projects
with the potential to serve as employment destination centers and when the project is
adjacent to State Highways 20-26, 55 or 69;
. In developments where multiple commercial and/or office buildings are proposed (not
residential), the buildings should be arranged to create some form of common, usable
area, such as a plaza or green space;
. Where the project is developed adjacent to low or medium density residential uses, a
transitional use is encouraged."
3. All irrigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting,
crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the parcel shall be tiled per City Ordinance 12-4-
13. Plans will need to be approved by the appropriate irrigation/drainage district, or lateral
users association, with written confirmation of said approval submitted to the Public Works
Department.

development of this project be equipped with Opticom Sensors to ensure a safe and efficient
response by fire and emergency medical service vehicles. The cost of this installation is to be
borne by the developer.
8. It is requested that Duane Dr. be connected with full width street to provide secondary access
for the project. A public street connection will be made to Duane Drive. However, the access
will be restricted by a gate. The gate will allow for emergency vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle
access. The Applicant shall coordinate the design of the gate with ACHD and the Meridian
Fire Department. (Per action of the City Council meeting of March 2, 2004.)

5. The Engineers and architects involved with the design of the subject project shall
obtain current best management practices for stormwater disposal and design a
stonnwater management system that prevents groundwater and surface water degradation.
G. Adopt the action of the City Council taken at their March 2,2004 meeting as follows:
For clarification:
1. Duane Drive shall be a public street connection. Also, a public hearing would
have to be held by the Ada County Highway Commission if there was a request
for the gate to be removed. Anyone can make the request to remove the gate,
which would include members of the public, service providers, agencies, etc. (Per
Christy Richardson's ofletter to Anna Powell- Planning and Zoning Director,
stamped: RECEIVED FEB 04 2004 City of Meridian City Clerk Office.)
Additionally, the Ada County Highway Commission, upon a public hearing,
would then have to address the Duane Drive standards, width, sidewalks, and who
would bear the expense for said improvements.
At no point in time shall construction traffic, or extra vehicles, except the present
existing surrounding homeowners, be allowed to use Duane Drive, and the existing
fence, which is now in place, shall remain in place until such time as the gate can be
constructed.
2. Since the most western portion ofthe property is to be made a part ofthis aooexation
which is to be rezoned to C-G, a Development Agreement shall be entered into
between the City of Meridian and the owners of the property to be zoned C-G (Bany
& Frances Bryson and Melvin R. and Noma E. Schrammeck Trust) that would
restrict development of future uses for this area. The Development Agreement shall
also cite the appropriate Comprehensive Plan policies (from Chapter VI and VII) as
applicable to these properties. (See number B.2. above for further explanation.)
3. Pertaining to the dispute over the boundary lines on Granger between the Applicant
and Jim and Irma Mittleider, the Applicant resolved this situation by positioning the
right-of-way further north to compensate for what the Mittleider's believe to be their
property. The Applicant shall also work with the Mittleiders to work out the piping of
ditches. Additionally, the Applicant stated on public record that they would be
willing to meet with the Mittleiders to go over the development plan, and to discuss
any issues they may have.
4. The revised Landscape Plan shows the increased landscape buffer along U stick Road
to be 35 feet, which meets the entryway corridor policy ofthe City.

13. It is found that the requested zoning designations, R -4 and C-G, are harmonious with
and in accordance with the effective Comprehensive Plan ('02) and the Future Land Use Map, which
designates the land to be "Mixed Use Regional for the proposed G-G property and Medium Density
Residential for the R-4 property".
14. It is not anticipated that the applicant intends to rezone the subject property in the
future because of the proposed use in the R-4 zone (single-family) and the flexibility for future
development on the C-G proposed property.
15. It is found that the proposed single-family residential portion of the zoning
amendment would be developed in a manner substantially consistent with the proposed R-4 zone
and/or consistent with aIloweable Planned Development uses. The applicant submitted a revised
preliminary plat, planned development plan, and landscape plan for the R -4 single-family residential
property, but a Development Agreement will need to be entered into between the City of Meridian
and the owners of the property to be zoned C-G (Hany & Frances Bryson and Melvin R. and Noma
E. Schrammeck Trust) that would restrict development of future uses for this area. The
Development Agreement shall also cite the appropriate Comprehensive Plan policies (from Chapter
VI and VII) as applicable to these properties. (See number B.2. above for further explanation.)
16. It is found that the annexation, zoning and redevelopment of parcels to the north and
east of this site (within Boise City limits) to medium density residential uses are similar to the
proposed use and would be compatible. Recently there have been several larger residential
subdivisions, with densities similar to those allowed in the R-4 zone that have been approved by the

City of Boise. Providence Place, Heather Meadows Subdivision, Dawson Meadows Subdivision and
Redfeather Estates Subdivision #1 have all been approved for single-family residences in the vicinity
of this site.
An annexation and zoning application for a proposed C-G zone was approved by the
Planning and Zoning Commission in September 2003 for the 18 acres immediately north of the
proposed C-G property within the subject application.
The arterial streets adjacent to this site, Ustick Road (between Cloverdale Road and Eagle
Road) and Eagle Road are currently not included within ACHD's Five Year Work Program for
roadway improvements.
17. It is found that the proposed use R-4 (single family residential) match the intended
character ofthe vicinity. It is found that the proposed zoning/uses can be designed and constructed in
a manner that will be harmonious with and appropriate in appearance with the existing and intended
character of the surrounding area. It is also found that to ensure compatibility of the commercial
area, a Development Agreement shall be required which will help guide appropriate and harminous
appearances in the future. The existing character of the area will, and is, currently changing,
especially upon build-out of the proposed project and other similar subdivisions in the general
vicinity. It is found that it will not adversely change the essential character of the area.
18. It is not anticipated that the proposed residential or commercial uses will be hazardous
or disturbing to future or existing neighbors, due to other existing and proposed uses in the vicinity
of the site.
19. The Meridian Fire Department submitted a list of conditions and needs in order to
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION

(AZ-03-021)

adequately serve the project, and said list is addressed within 12. D. hereinabove. Additionally,
ACHD submitted their requirements, recommendations and conditions which are addressed in 12.C.
hereinabove. Water and sanitary sewer services are proposed to be extended from existing service
lines in Ustick Road and near the South Slough, via Eagle Road.
20. It is found that there will not be excessive additional requirements at public cost for
public services and facilities and that the annexation and zoning will not be detrimental to the
community's economic welfare. The developer will be financing the extension ofsewer, water, local
street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The primary public costs to
serve the future residents will be fire, police and school facilities and services.
21. It is found that the proposed residential and commercial zones/uses will not be
detrimental to people, property or the general welfare of the area. The proposed uses on the subject
property will create additional traffic on nearby arterial roadways. Washington Group International
prepared a traffic study for this site. As a result of the site build-out, Washington Group anticipates
that traffic on the vicinity roadways are expected to increase as follows: traffic on U stick Road, west
of Duane Drive, may increase by 905 vpd; traffic on Us tick Road east of Grenadier Way may
increase by 874 vpd; traffic on Cloverdale Road north of Granger Street may increase by 332 vpd;
traffic on Cloverdale Road south of Granger Street may increase by 905 vpd. The intersection of
Ustick Road/Cloverdale Road is currently operating at a LOS E with a delay of 56 seconds per
vehicle. At build-out of the Redfeather Estates No.2 site, the Ustick Road/Cloverdale Road
intersection is projected to continue operating at LOS E with a delay of70 seconds per vehicle. The
intersection of Cloverdale Road/Fairview A venue is currently operating at a LOS F with a delay of

112 seconds. At build-out of the Redfeather Estates No.2 site, the intersection is projected to
continue operating at LOS F with a delay of 112 seconds per vehicle.
It is recognized that the traffic and noise will increase with the approval of this subdivision;
however, it is believed that the amount generated will be detrimental to the general welfare of the
public. It is not anticipated that the proposed annexation and subsequent uses will create excessive
noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
22. ACHD has reviewed and recommended approval ofthe vehicular approach to the site
from Ustick Road. The ACHD Commission approved the subject application and proposed vehicle
approaches. Further, the applicant is proposing to extend stub streets that were originally approved
and constructed to provide efficient access to the site, limiting the amount ofinterrerence with traffic
on surrounding streets. Review of the ACHD report for this project will provide additional
information.
23. A revised Landscape Plan was submitted and which Plan increased the landscaping
along Ustick Road to 35 feet, it took out the very long street and created a loop. Additionally, there
will be pedestrian access from the current terminus ofBrianvood Drive to Brianvood Subdivision, as
proposed, and to retain the existing maple tree. All trees that are removed from this site shall be
mitigated in accordance with MCC 12-13-13-6. The revised Landscape Plan was approved by the
Planning and Zoning Department.
The South Slough (Finch Lateral) crosses the subject property along the southwest
comer of the proposed R -4 property. The Milk Lateral will be piped by the Applicant. The applicant
is proposing to construct a 1 O-foot wide paved multi-use pathway adjacent to the lateral as part of the

development proposal for the Redfeather development. If all applicable agency design and treatment
standards are complied with, it is found that the proposed pathway will not result in the destruction,
loss or damage of the lateral. Rather the proposal should enhance the lateral by allowing nearby
residents to enjoy the feature.
There appears to be no other natural or scenic features of major importance in the area
that may be affected the proposed rezone/uses.
24. It is found that the annexation/rezone of this property would be in the best interest
of the City.
25. It is found that if the developer pays for the requested improvements
and complies with the conditions set forth in these Findings of Fact No. 12, and all sub-parts, the
economic welfare of the City and its residents and tax and rate payers will be protected, a
condition of annexation and zoning designation.
26. It is also found that the development considerations as referenced in Finding No.
12 are reasonable to require and must be taken into account, in order to assure the proposed
development is designed, constructed, operated and maintained in a manner which is harmonious
and appropriate in appearance with the existing, or intended character of the general vicinity, in
order to assure that the proposed use will not change the essential character of the affected
vicinity and will insure that the proposed uses will not be hazardous or disturbing to the existing,
or future neighboring uses, particularly considering the impact of proposed development on
potential to produce excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare and odors.

3. Developer shall be required to meet the conditions set forth and in the event the
conditions herein are not met by the Developer that the property shall be subject to de-annexation,
with the City of Meridian, which provides for the following conditions of development, to-wit:
A. Adopt the Special Recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission as follows:
1. Do not require the inclusion of the one-acre Smitchger out parcel in the annexation.
C. Adopt the Recommendations of the Meridian Planning & Zoning Department as follows:
1. Removal of any existing domestic wells and/or septic systems within this project
from their domestic service must be accomplished within two years of the approval of these
Annexation and Zoning Findings, but it may be extended for an additional year by the City
Engineer if good cause is shown, and pending development ofthe parcel would warrant the
extension. Wells may be used for non-domestic purposes such as landscape irrigation.
2. Prior to annexation, a Development Agreement shall be entered into between the City
of Meridian and the owners ofthe property to be zoned C-G (Harry & Frances Bryson and
Melvin R. and Noma E. Schrammeck Trust) that requires any future uses of the property to
be approved only through the conditional use permit process. In addition, the agreement shall
include a requirement that either a public or private backage street generally parallel with
Eagle Road/SH 55 be incorporated into the design of future site plans. A conceptual master
plan demonstrating interconnectivity, transitional uses, access points and other key land
planning issues is required prior to any detailed CUP applications being submitted on either
the Bryson or Schrammeck properties.
The DA shall also cite the following Comprehensive Plan policies (from Chapter VI and
VII) as applicable to these same properties:
Transportation Policies Applicable to the Bryson/Schrammeck Annexation:
· "Large development proposals that are likely to generate significant traffic should be
assessed for their impact on the transportation system and surrounding land uses. They
should be examined for ways to encourage all forms of transportation such as transit,
walking, and cycling.
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
AND DECISION AND ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION
FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING REDFEATHER ESTATES
SUBDIVISION NO.2 PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
(AZ-03-021)
PAGE 18 OF 26
· New development should not rely on cul-de-sacs since they provide poor fire access,
walkabi1ity, and neighborhood socia11ife. New development and streets should be
designed to encourage walking and bicycling.
· In addition to providing for enhanced automobile traffic, Meridian should seek ways to
encourage alternative modes of transport. Improvement in and encouraged use of public
transit systems is an important first step. Public transit includes bus systems and
ridesharing. By fostering such means of high vehicle occupancies, congestion on
roadways can be decreased.
· Pathways that encourage use by bicyclists and pedestrians can decrease road congestion
and add to the community's quality oflife. The proposed off-street and multiple-use
pathway systems are depicted in Figures VI-3 and VI-4. New and existing developments
should ensure that the guidelines laid out in this plan are adopted.
· Eagle Road is the major north-south arterial in Ada County. The capacity of this arterial
should be protected by minimizing the number and location of private driveway access
connections to this important roadway. The City should recognize, adopt, and help
implement the Eagle Road Access Control Study, prepared by ACHD in 1997."
Mixed Use Development Policies Applicable to the Bryson/Schrammeck Annexation:
· "Where feasible, multi-family residential uses will be encouraged, especially for projects
with the potential to serve as employment destination centers and when the project is
adjacent to State Highways 20-26, 55 or 69;
· In developments where multiple commercial and/or office buildings are proposed (not
residential), the buildings should be arranged to create some form of common, usable
area, such as a plaza or green space;
· Where the project is developed adjacent to low or medium density residential uses, a
transitional use is encouraged."
3. All irrigation ditches, laterals or canals, exclusive of natural waterways, intersecting,
crossing or lying adjacent and contiguous to the parcel shall be tiled per City Ordinance 12-4-
13. Plans will need to be approved by the appropriate irrigation/drainage district, or lateral
users association, with written confirmation of said approval submitted to the Public Works
Department.
C. Adopt the Recommendations ofthe Ada County Highway District as follows:

letter to Anna Powell - Planning and Zoning Director, stamped: RECEIVED FEB 04
2004 City of Meridian City Clerk Office.)
Additionally, the Ada County Highway Commission, upon a public hearing, would then
have to address the Duane Drive standards, width, sidewalks, and who would bear the
expense for said improvements.
At no point in time shall construction traffic, or extra vehicles, except the present existing
surrounding homeowners, be allowed to use Duane Drive, and the existing fence, which is
now in place, shall remain in place until such time as the gate can be constructed.
2. Since the most western portion of the property is to be made a part ofthis annexation which
is to be rezoned to C-G, a Development Agreement shall be entered into between the City of
Meridian and the owners of the property to be zoned C-G (Harry & Frances Bryson and

above for further explanation.)
3. Pertaining to the dispute over the boundary lines on Granger between the Applicant and Jim
and Irma Mittleider, the Applicant resolved this situation by positioning the right-of-way

existing surrounding homeowners, be allowed to use Duane Drive, and the existing
fence, which is now in place, shall remain in place until such time as the gate can be

Road to be 35 feet, which meets the entryway corridor policy of the City.
14. It is found that the subject property is large enough to accommodate the requested use
and all required yards, open spaces and other features required by this ordinance, upon the submittal
of the revised preliminary plat.
15. The current Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the property as Medium
Density Residential for the proposed R-4 property. It is found that the proposed residential uses are
harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
16. That the proposed R-4 zoning and subsequent residential use proposed in the
revised preliminary plat match the intended character of the vicinity, as noted on the Future Land
Use Map in the Comprehensive Plan. It is also found that the proposed zoning/uses can be
designed and constructed in a manner that will be hannonious with and appropriate in appearance
with the existing and intended character of the surrounding area. It is also found that that to
ensure compatibility of the commercial area, a Development Agreement shall be required which
will help guide appropriate and harmonious appearances in the future. The existing character of
the area will, and is, currently changing, especially upon build-out of the proposed project and

other similar subdivisions in the general vicinity. It is not found that the project will adversely
change the essential character of the area.
17. It is not anticipated that the proposed project will have an adverse impact on other
properties within the vicinity.
18. It is found that the proposed development can be adequately served by the
essential public facilities and services. The Meridian Fire Department submitted conditions, and
said conditions are addressed in number 13. D. hereinabove. Water and sanitary sewer service are
proposed to be extended from existing service lines in Ustick Road and near the South Slough,
via Eagle Road. The developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local street
infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project.
19. It is found that the proposed use would not be detrimental to the economic welfare
of the community, nor would it create the need for any new facilities or services to be paid for by
the public that would be considered excessive. The developer will be financing the extension of
sewer, water, local street infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The
primary public costs to serve the future residents will be fire, police and school facilities and
servIces.
20. It is found that the proposed uses on the subject property will create additional
traffic on nearby arterial roadways. It is also recognized that traffic and noise will increase with
the approval of this subdivision; however, it is not believed that the amount generated will be
detrimental to the general welfare of the public. It is not anticipated the proposed uses will create
excessive noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
21. ACHD has reviewed and recommended approval of the vehicular approach to the
FINDlNGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND DECISION AND ORDER
GRANTlNG CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
PAGE 11 OF 24
site from Ustick Road. The ACHD Commission approved the subject application and proposed
vehicle approaches. Further, the applicant is proposing to extend stub streets that were originally
approved and constructed to provide efficient access to the site; limiting the amount of
interference with traffic on surrounding streets. Review of the ACHD report for this project will
provide additional information.
22. A revised Landscape Plan was submitted and which Plan increased the landscaping
along Ustick Road to 35 feet, it took out the very long street and created a loop. Additionally, there
will be pedestrian access from the current terminus of Briarwood Drive to Briarwood Subdivision, as
proposed, and to retain the existing maple tree. All trees that are removed from this site shall be
mitigated in accordance with MCC 12-13-13-6. The revised Landscape Plan was approved by the
Planning and Zoning Department.
The South Slough (Finch Lateral) crosses the subject property along the southwest
comer of the proposed R -4 property. The Milk Lateral will be piped by the Applicant. The applicant
is proposing to construct a 1 O-foot wide paved multi-use pathway adjacent to the lateral as part ofthe
development proposal for the Redfeather development. If all applicable agency design and treatment
standards are complied with, it is found that the proposed pathway will not result in the destruction,
loss or damage of the lateral. Rather the proposal should enhance the lateral by allowing nearby
residents to enjoy the feature.
There appears to be no other natural or scenic features of major importance in the area
that may be affected the proposed rezone/uses.

5. The proposed school site is presently conceptual, as the school district has not
decided on a layout as of yet.
6. Hours of operation for the drive-through coffee stand shall be from 6:00 a.m. to
8;00 p.m.
Hours of operation for the car wash (no more than three (3) vacuums allowed),
and two (2) fuel pumps shall be allowed as a 24 hour operation.
Hours of fuel delivery and refrigerated truck operation shall be ii-om 7:00 a.m. to

7. The developer shall also be required to comply with all the conditions set forth in

15. It is found that the 2002 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the
subject property as "Mixed Use - Community" with a Neighborhood Center. The purpose of this
designation is "to provide a blend of high-density residential, small-scale commercial,
entertaimnent, office and open space uses that are geared to serve all residents within a one to
two square mile area. The centers should offer an internal circulation system that connects with
adjacent neighborhoods or regional pathway(s). They will also serve as public transit locations
for future park and ride lots, bus stops, shuttle bus stops or other alternative modes of
transpOliation." (Chapter VII, pg. 95) The requested C-N zoning generally conforms to this
stated purpose and intent ofthe MU-Community designation.
The following 2002 Comprehensive Plan policies are applicable to this application:
Chapter VII, pgs. 97-98, Chapter IV, Goal I, Obj. A. #6, Chapter VII, Goal I, Obj. B #5,

16. The general vicinity of this project is experiencing a rapid change from
agricultural and low-density residential uses to urban scale development. Cedar Springs
Subdivision is a 100+ acre development immediately north of the subject property. Other
development in the vicinity includes Settlers Park, a municipal water reservoir, a church and
Sundance Subdivision. A rezone and preliminary plat request for a 70+ lot, R-8 subdivision
(Salisbury No.2) is currently before the Commission and lies approximately 14 mile south of the
subject site. Ustick Road is not scheduled by ACHD for any improvements in the Work Program
or CIP. It is found that a rezone of the proposed property would be compatible with the land use
changes in the area.
17. It is found that any future uses, if designed, constructed and operated in
accordance with adopted city ordinances and future CUP applications, should be harmonious and
appropriate in appearance Witll the intended character ofthe vicinity. The area is intended to be a
mixed use area which, based on the Comprehensive Plan description will have such uses as retail
stores, garden centers, restaurants, drive-thru facilities and auto service stations.
18. It is found that the majority of future uses on the subject property will not be
hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses if all development and landscaping
ordinances are applied. Both future elementary school and existing single family residence to the
east are less intensive uses than the office and auto-oriented services. Therefore, appropriate
buffers will be required on the north and east boundaries, unless otherwise reduced tlu'ough the
CUP/PD application. It is not anticipated that the proposed uses will be disturbing or hazardous
to the neighboring residential uses.
19. It is found that roadway improvements will be required on U stick Road to handle

the additional traffic generated by this and future development. If Venable Lane is extended
south of Us tick Road in the future, warrants may be met to require a traffic signal. Sanitary
sewer and water are either currently available or under construction to provide service to the area.
On January 9, 2004, ajoint agency/department comments meeting was held with representatives
of key service providers to this property, and said conditions are listed in paragraph 14
hereinabove.
20. It is found that the proposed development will not cause excessive additional
requirements at public cost. The White Drain Trunk extension was funded by the City of
Meridian but will not create new demands on the public coffer for this development. Other
required site improvements will be funded and constructed by the developer.
21. It is found that the fuel island and car wash uses may involve activities, processes,
materials, equipment or conditions that could produce excessive traffic and noise and have other
negative public impacts. It is believed that the proposed uses will not be excessive or
unreasonable. Hours of operation, hours of fuel delivery, and any refrigerated truck operation
shall be as follows:
Hours of operation for the drive-through coffee stand shall be from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Hours of operation for the car wash (no more than three (3) vacuums allowed), and two
(2) fuel pumps shall be allowed as a 24 hour operation.
Hours of fuel delivery and refrigerated truck operation shall be from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m.
The decibel levels generated at the site shall be required to comply with Meridian City
Code 6-3-6.
21. It is found that any future uses will impact the level and flow of traffic on the

surrounding streets. ACHD estimates the site to generate 1,380 additional vehicle trips per day
(0 existing). Improvements to Venable Lane and Ustick Road are required of the developer to
bring the facilities up to acceptable standards. It is also found that it will be impOliant to create a
safe and protected environment for children attending the future school site. The applicant shall
comply with ACHD policies in order to preserve the capacity and movement on the adjacent
roadways.
22. It is found that the proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss or
damage of other natural features.
23. It is found that the rezone of this property would be in the best interest of the City
for the following reasons:
. increased commercial land base available to future builders/developers;
. increased property tax revenue;
. municipal services are available to the area; and
. application substantially complies with the Comprehensive Plan.
. providing retail and other services near existing residences
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

HANDWRITTEN DATE: 12-2-03, HOWELL-MURDOCH DEVELOPMENT CORP.-
DEVELOPER, J-U-B ENGINEERS, INC. - ENGINEERS", Howell-Murdoch Development,
Corp., Developer, submitted for preliminary plat approval and which preliminary plat for
approval application is herein received and adjudged by the City Council pursuant to Meridian
City Code S 12-3-3. Therefore the City Council makes the following findings:
FINDINGS OF FACT
I. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Amended
Comprehensive Plan by reason of the fact that it lies within the existing Urban Area as defined in
the Meridian Comprehensive Plan Generalized Land Use Map, Infrastructure Planning Analysis
Amended Comprehensive Plan Map, adopted August 6,2002, Resolution No. 02-382, and the
property is presently zoned R-4, however, an application for re-zoning to C-N is before the
Council, and requires connection to the Municipal Water and Sewer System. [Meridian City
Code S 11-7-2 H]
2. The preliminary plat is in conformance with the Amended Comprehensive Plan
City of Meridian adopted August 6,2002, Resolution No. 02-382. The proposed uses are in
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND ORDER
OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY PLAT
CEDAR SPRINGS PROFESSIONAL CENTER / (pP-03-044)
2 of 15
compliance with the sample uses for this mixed use classification. Venable Lane is located at the
half-mile line between Meridian Road and Linder Road. These half-mile locations are shown in
the Comprehensive Plan (Chapter VI) as future collector roadways. The plat appears to dedicate
sufficient right-of-way and meets the minimum street buffer widths to comply with a Collector
street classification.
3. It is determined that Urban Services can be made available to accommodate the
proposed development if the plat complies with the requirements and conditions hereinafter set
forth as conditions of preliminary plat approval. It is found that roadway improvements will be
required on Ustick Road to handle the additional traffic generated by this and future
development. If Venable Lane is extended south of Us tick Road in the future, warrants maybe
met to require a traffic signal, Sanitary sewer and water are either currently available or under
construction to provide service to the area. On January 9,2004, a joint agency/department
comments meeting was held with representatives of key service providers to this property. This
development will not cause excessive additional requirements at public cost. The White Drain
Trunk extension was funded by the City of Meridian but will not create new demands on the
public coffer for this development. Other required site improvements will be funded and
constructed by the developer.
4. The proposed development is a continuity of the proposed development within the
City's Capital Improvement Program and if the conditions, which are requested by the Planning
and Zoning Administrator and the Engineering Technician III, and as proposed by the developer
as stated on the preliminary plat, there will be public financial capability of supporting services
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND ORDER
OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF PRELThITNARY PLAT

3 ofl5
for the proposed development. It is found that public services are available to accommodate the
proposed development. (Also see number 3 directly above for further information on this
matter. )
5. The development ifbuilt in accordance with the conditions and as proposed, will
not create health, safety or environmental problems and there have been no specifics of any such
concerns brought to the Council's attention. The developer is required to install sewer, water,
utilities and irrigation, for the development at their cost, it is found that the subdivision will not
conflict with the capital improvement program. It is found that the City and its related services
are capable of servicing the proposed development. The development will not require major
expenditures for providing supporting services.
6. It is found that the Recommendation To City Council of the Planning and Zoning
Commission is reasonable and appropriate for the conditions of approval of the preliminary plat
as hereinafter set forth.
7. The applicant has submitted for consideration of this approval drawing of the
preliminary plat herein designated as the "PRELIMINARY PLAT CEDAR SPRINGS

For clarification:
1. The revised Site/Landscape Plan (Sheet L-1, by Jensen Belts) is dated 3/8/04.
This CUP shall also reflect this revised plan.
2. The new fuel island canopy elevations sheet (by LAB Architect) is dated October,
2003. This CUP shall also reflect the revised sheet in Condition #6 of the
Recommendations.
3. The revised Site/Landscape Plan reflects most ofthe modifications required, but
the Plan does not reflect the following:
· a detached sidewalk on Ustick Road (PP condition #2)
· right-of-way landscape improvements adjacent to Ustick Road (PP
condition #8.b.)
· parallel parking stall change (CUP condition #7, page 2)
4. The above modifications (3 above) must be made during the Final Plat and/or
CZC approval process.
5. The proposed school site is presently conceptual, as the school district has not
decided on a layout as of yet.
13. It is found that the subject property is large enough to accommodate the requested
use and all other required features. The required buffer between land uses on the east boundary
may need to be widened to comply with MCC ordinance.
14. It is found that the proposed development is generally harmonious with the 2002
Comprehensive Plan. The majority ofthe CUPIPD Site Plan is harmonious with the Zoning and
Subdivision Ordinance. However, the proposed driveway openings/curb cuts on Lot 17 do not
conform. MCC l2-5-2.F., Driveways, requires that "all driveway openings in curbs shall be as
specified by the Public Works Department, Highway District or State Highway Department." Lot
17 of the plat (the carwash/fuel pump/coffee kiosk lot) proposes driveway openings onto the
internal conunercial driveway that exceed 120 feet in width on the east and 160 feet on the north.
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND DECISION AND ORDER

These are excessive and must be reduced. ACHD's standard, allowable curb cut on local streets
is a maximum of 36 feet. While not a local street, the internal common driveway will function
largely as a street and staffrecommends a maximum 30 foot wide cut.
15. It is found that the general design, construction, operation, and maintenance should be
compatible with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing or intended character
of the area. The applicant shall address the hours of operation anticipated on Lot 17. Some
consideration may need to be given to the existing residence to the east until said lot redevelops in
the future to preserve their residential atmosphere.
16. It is not anticipated that the proposed development will have an adverse impact on the
surrounding property. The buffer width behind Building "B" may need to be increased to comply
with the Landscape Ordinance.
17. The Meridian Fire Department has submitted a list of conditions and needs in
order to adequately serve the project (see number 12. C. hereinabove). Water and sanitary sewer
service are proposed to be extended from existing main lines adjacent to the proposed
development. The ACHD is recommending approval, with site-specific and standards conditions.
Review of the ACHD report for this project will provide additional information.
18. The developer will be financing the extension of sewer, water, local street
infrastructure, utilities and irrigation services to serve the project. The primary public costs to serve
the future residents will be fire, police and school facilities and services. It is found that there will
not be excessive additional requirements at public cost and that the conditional use permit will not be
detrimental to the community's economic welfare.
19. According to ACHD, the proposed project is anticipated to generate 1,380 new
FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND DECISION AND ORDER
GRANTING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
PAGE 10 OF 23
vehicle trips per day. It is recognized that traffic and noise will increase with the approval of this
subdivision; however, it is not believed that the amount generated will be detrimental to the general
welfare ofthe public. It is also not anticipated that the proposed development will create excessive
noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors. The applicant shall clarify the hours of operation, hours offuel
delivery and anticipated decibel levels generated at the site.
20. It is not believed that the proposed vehicular approaches on Ustick Road and
Venable Lane will create an interference with traffic on the surrounding public streets. All
minimum off-sets appear to be met and the commercial driveway exceeds the minimum 25-foot
width. Review of the ACHD staff report for this project will provide further information.
21. It is found that the proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss or
damage of other natural features.
22. It is believed that the proposed uses will not be excessive or unreasonable. Hours
of operation, hours of fuel delivery, and any refrigerated truck operation shall be as follows:
Hours of operation for the drive-through coffee stand shall be from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Hours of operation for the car wash (no more than three (3) vacuums allowed), and two
(2) fuel pumps shall be allowed as a 24 hour operation.
Hours of fuel delivery and refrigerated truck operation shall be from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m.
The decibel levels generated at the site shall be required to comply with Meridian City
Code 6-3-6.

Re: April 13 City Council Meeting Agenda Items
The Water Division respectfully requests that the following item be placed on the April 13 City
Council agenda, under Consent Agenda, for Council's consideration:
AQreement for Professional Services, Microbial Evaluation of 8th Street Office SuildinQ
- Summit Environmental Inc. During the wet season earlier this spring several Water
Division offices experienced water damage from a failing roof. Since then, a few staff
members have expressed concerns that they believe we have a presence of mold in
the building and that it may be adversely affecting their health. I have requested this
proposal to 1) evaluate the presence or absence of mold via collection of air and
surface samples 2) establish remediation recommendations to be completed during
future roof repairs if applicable and 3) retest and certify the absence of mold after
remediation (if mold is found to be present).
The agreement includes initial inspection, full sampling and post clean up sampling.
The agreement is not to exceed $3,179.00.

Client will pay the invoice within 30 days of the invoice date. Accounts remaining unpaid after said 15 days will be considered delinquent
and assessed a late payment charge (currently at the rate of 1 1/2% per month) calculated each month from the date of the invoice.
Consultant reserves the right to suspend all Services until account delinquencies have been remedied.
3. OPINIONS OF COST: Because Consultant has no control over the cost of labor, materials, equipment or Services furnished by others,
or over contractors' methods of determining prices, or other competitive bidding or market conditions, any cost estimates provided by
Consultant will be made on the basis of experience and judgment. Consultant cannot and does not guarantee that proposals, bids or actual
Project construction costs will not vary from cost estimates prepared by Consultant. Consultant will not exceed estimated probable cost
without prior authorization from Client.
4. RECOGNITION OF RISK: Client recognizes that site conditions will often vary from those encountered at the times and locations,
where data are obtained by the Consultant, and that the limited data results in uncertainty with respect to the interpretation of these
conditions, despite the use of due professional care. Consultant's findings, specifications or professional advice do not contain any
warranty or representation that Client's site is free from environmental or microbial contamination. Environmental and microbiological
contamination may be unidentified within walls, ceiling cavities, below flooring or grade, and other non-accessible areas.
5. CLIENT PROVIDED INFORMATION: Client will make available to Consultant, all information readily available to Client regarding
existing and proposed conditions ofthe site, which will aid Consultant in its performance of Services. Client agrees to advise Consultant of
any hazardous substances or any condition existing in, on or near the site presenting a potential danger to human health, the environment,
or equipment. Client will immediately transmit to Consultant any new information that becomes available to Client, which may have a
bearing on Consultant's performance of Services, orwhich relates to information Consultant has requested from Client. Consultant shall be
entitled to rely, without further inquiry or investigation, on all information furnished to Consultant by Client. lfany hazards, not disclosed to
Consultant, are discovered after the Services are undertaken, Client and Consultant agree that the Scope of Services, time schedule and
rate schedule shall be modified accordingly.
6. STANDARD OF PERFORMANCE: Consultant represents that Services will be performed within the limits prescribed by Client, and
that its findings, recommendations, specifications, and/or professional advice provided hereunder will be prepared and presented in a
manner consistent with the level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by other professionals under similar circumstances, at the time the

for applying for and obtaining such permits and approvals as may be necessary for Consultant to perform the Services.
B. REUSE OF DOCUMENTS: All documents, including computer files, drawings and specifications, prepared by Consultant pursuant to
this Agreement shall remain the property of Consultant and are instruments of service with respect to the Project. They are not intended or
represented to be suitable for reuse by Client or others on extensions of the Seri/ices provided for the Project under this Agreement or on
any other project. Any reuse without written authorization, certification or adaptation by Consultant for the specific purpose intended will be
at Client's sole risk and without liability to Consultant.
9, SAMPLES: Consultant shall preserve all samples obtained for the Project, as it deems necessary but not longer than twenty (20) days
after the issuance of any document which records the data obtained as a result of the sample analysis.
10. EXCLUSIONS: All issues related to asbestos, PCBs, lead paint, endangered species, and wetland delineation (excluded issues) are
excluded from Consultant's Scope of Services. Client shall notify Consultant at the start of the Project if there is reason to suspect the
presence of any excluded issues on the site. If excluded issues are suspected or encountered, Consultant will stop its own work to permit

4 Client understands that actual site conditions may result in modifications to the proposed scope of work and cost estimate.
5 Fungi is ubiquitous to the earth and a sterile environment is not the objective of fungal assessments and corrective actions.
6 The microbial aerosol makeup of environmental air can change rapidly due to both natural and human actions.

practicality.
Additionally other possible building material hazards such as asbestos and lead-based paint were nollncluded as part of this evaluation and
may require proper sampling for proper personnel protective equipment selection prior to disturbance. Other unidentified microbiological Impact
may be located within walls, ceiling cavities. below flooring or grade, and other non-accessible areas. Precaution should be used during
remediation as the condition of the microbiological impact may change gradually or suddenly, depending upon dynamic conditJons.

Date: 4/7/04
Re: April 13 City Council Meeting Agenda Item
The Public Works Department respectfully requests that the following items be placed on the April
13, 2004 City Council agenda, on the Consent Agenda, for Council's consideration:
Agreement for Professional Services for Water Division Space Analvsis Study - BRS
Architects. After discussing this issue with City Council at its February 24 and March 9
meetings, we proceeded with negotiating an agreement with BRS Architects. A copy of
that agreement and my February 19, 2004 memo to Mayor and Council follows.
As you will recall, the Mayor, Rick Clinton and I met with B.S.U. representatives in early
March. They told us at that meeting of their intention to move the electricallineworkers
program to their "West" campus. Consequently, we are proceeding with a space analysis
of the existing site at 2235 N.W. 8th only and not considering other locations or new
facilities. The analysis will include the following:
· Existing facility survey
· Programming: define space requirements; equipment, environmental & environmental
needs; critical adjacencies/separations
· Schematic design including conceptual floor plan, building elevations/sections and site plan.
The analysis will be based on expanding and remodeling the existing building to meet the 20-
year staff, equipment and fleet requirements.
Recommended Council Action: Approve the agreement with BRS Architects for the
Water Division Facility Requirements Analysis on a lump sum amount of $22,050.00, and
authorize the Mayor to sign and City Clerk to attest.
Thank you for your consideration.

From: Brad Watson, P.E.
CC: File, Gary Smith, PE, City Clerk
Date: 2/19/04
Re: February 24 City Council Meeting Agenda Item
The Public Works Department respectfully requests that the following item be placed on the
February 24 City Council agenda, under Public Works Department Reports, for discussion
with Mayor and Council:
Discussion of Water Division Space Analysis Study
Over the last couple of years the Water Division has grown to the point that there is little
to no room for additional employees, vehicles or shop space at its current facility.
Consequently, we thought it prudent to determine the immediate and long-term needs of
the Division. In 2002, Larson Architects, at no charge, graciously provided us with a
projection based of general space requirements.
Using the information Larson Architects provided, we issued a Request For Proposals
(copy attached) in November 2003 for architectural services to complete a space
analysis of the Water Division. We received six proposals and, after much evaluation
and discussion, selected BRS Architects to negotiate with. The purpose of the study
was to evaluate the feasibility of expanding the current site/facility versus a new
site/facility to meet the 20-year needs of the Water Division.
In our initial scoping meeting with BRS, we began question the logic in evaluating the
existing facility and site given their many limitations. These include a long-term lease
(through 2018, option to 2028) with the BSU Line Workers Vo-Tech School, lack of
parking space, inability to expand westward into the Eighth Street Park due to a large
sewer trunk and costs to come into compliance with City setback, landscaping and
paving requirements upon remodel.
. Page 1
We then directed BRS to evaluate the basic feasibility of the existing site given the
above constraints. BRS Architects submitted a short memo report to me (attached)
listing their assumptions and findings. In a nutshell, the existing site will not
accommodate the 20-year build out of the Water Division.
Rick Clinton spoke with Larry Barnhardt, Dean of the BSU College of Applied
Technology, regarding their lease on the site. Mr. Barnhardt sent the attached letter to
Rick. The lease is in effect through 2018 with a BSU option for an additional 10 years.
Mayor de Weerd has scheduled a meeting with Mr. Barnhardt and Dennis Griffin the
week of March 1 to discuss further.
Rick and I also met with Doug Strong and Elroy Huff to discuss the feasibility of the
Parks Department using the site. They visited the facility later that same day. I believe
they are cautiously optimistic about being able to use it.
So we are at the point where I need to direct BRS Architects to do one of four things:
1. Proceed with a full space analysis of a new facility and site.
2. Proceed with a full space analysis of both a new facility/site and of retrofitting the
existing building/site.
3. Proceed with only a full analysis of retrofitting the existing building/site.
4. Stop here and make the best of the existing site. This option essentially places a
hiring freeze on the Water Division as they do not have space to put any more
employees without sacrificing meeting space. We would also need to do some
remodeling to address security concerns.
Our recommendation is Option #1 above. It does not appear that the existing
building/site can be feasibly modified to meet the long range needs of the Water Division
based on the BRS memo and spending additional money to show that may not be the
best use of funds. However, if you or Council think we should compare both alternatives
(Option #2), I will certainly direct BRS to proceed that way.
Once I receive your thoughts, I will either instruct BRS to proceed with preparation of an
agreement for presentation to City Councilor, at your direction, present this question to
City Council at the February 17 meeting for discussion.
Thank you for your consideration.

SECTION 2
Preliminarv Alignment Services to be Performed by the CONSULTANT:
The CONSULTANT shall furnish services specifically limited to the following:
2.1 Proiect Updates
Throughout the length of the project, the CONSULTANT will submit a monthly progress report
that includes a current invoice, a description of the completed tasks, estimate of percent
completion, and other relevant information related to the project schedule.
2.2 Aerial Photos
OWNER will provide to CONSULTANT.
2.3 Spot Elevation Survey
Perform spot elevation survey within project area generally bounded by Meridian Road and
Locust Grove Road along McMillan Road. Approximately 2,000 If of 16" pipe will parallel
Meridian Road. The intent of this survey is to supplement the contour mapping provided by the
OWNER and to confirm elevations that may be needed in the Preliminary Alignment Analyses.
This work does not include a full topographic survey.
2.4 Review Preliminary Alignment
Using GIS mapping provided by the OWNER, existing contour mapping, spot elevation data,
and findings from the Preliminary Site Survey and utility investigation, a preliminary horizontal
alignment for the main will be developed and reviewed. Vertical profiles will not be developed
at this time. It is anticipated that boring will not be required. CONSULTANT will initiate
coordination with ACHD, Settlers Irrigation District, and any other agency that may be impacted
regarding alignment within the right-of-way. We understand that there is a corridor
understanding with ACHD and other utility companies that woqld have the water line located on
the north and east side of the roads. The first alignment will consider these locations. However,
it appears that the south side of McMillan may be the best because of a large canal on the north
and apparent utilities. The PRY location may also be an issue to overcome. It is recommended
that the OWNER and CONSULTANT visit the site and discuss options.
2.5 Initial Property Owner Contacts
It is assumed that all work will take place within an established right-of-way. If easements are
necessary from local property owners, work associated with contacting property owners and
obtaining an easement will be considered additional work and negotiated at that time.
2.6 City of Meridian Review
Meet with the OWNER to review the findings of the preliminary alignment. Make decisions
regarding changes related to the preliminary alignment and receive concurrence on the project
direction.
2.7 Revise Preliminary Alimunent
Revise the preliminary horizontal alignment.

Attachment "A"
April 7, 2004
2.8 Agency Coordination (ACHD, Settlers Irrigation District. other agencies)
Coordinate with ACHD, Irrigation District, and utility companies. Write a letter to confirm
findings and initiate the process to develop a crossing agreement with any effected utility, if
required. The O\VNER will review and execute any necessary agency agreements.
2.9 Select Alignment
Compile any utility comments and meet with the O\VNER to review project status. Make
selection of preferred alignment and issue a notice to proceed with other design tasks.
Easement Acquisition Services to be Performed by the CONSULTANT:
It is assumed that easements will not be required as a part of this project. It is anticipated that all work
will be done within established right-of-ways. Any work associated with easement acquisition will be
considered additional work.
Environmental Services to be Performed by the CONSULTANT:
It is anticipated that work related to the project will be within a developed, previously disturbed right-of-
way corridor. Thus, CONSULTANT does not anticipate, and has not included, environmental services
within this Scope of Services.
Design Services to be Performed by the CONSULTANT:
The CONSULTANT shall furnish services specifically limited to the following:
2.10 Pre~Design Meeting
A Pre-Design Meeting/Scoping Session should occur with the City of Meridian. Schematic
preliminary alignment alternatives and items to be provided to CONSULTANT by the OWNER
will be identified (GIS and aerial mapping).
2.11 Utility Research
The CONSULTANT shall contact and receive utility information from affected utilities
including, but not limited to, gas, power, telephone, storm drainage, cable T.V., irrigation, and
other utilities which may be affected by the proposed construction. The CONSULTANT will use
"Dig-Line" to verify utility line locations. Actual field pot-holing may be necessary at specific
crossing locations depending on proximity to the project, and the level of as-built detail
available. We have not included pot-holing services within this Scope of Services. Rather, if
necessary and with CONSULTANT direction, OWNER will provide pot-holing services at
OWNER's expense.
2.12 Final Agency Coordination
Facilitate finalization of agreements through any effected irrigation district. Coordinate with
ACHD and obtain plan approval. Coordinate with other miscellaneous utilities.

items necessary for proper construction of the project. An agreement may be required between
Settlers Irrigation District and the City of Meridian for paralleling their canal along McMillan
Road. Although there has been taken into account coordination and some communication with
Settlers, excessive work associated with obtaining any agreements will be considered extra.
2.14 Pipe Analysis
The CONSULTANT will not be performing pipe analysis. Rather, the OWNER has identified
that the project will include approximately 3,500 If of 12-inch main, 2,000 If of 16-inch main,

comments.
2.18 Revisions
The CONSULTANT shall incorporate all revisions as suggested by the O\VNER and other
agencies in the final set of plans and specifications.
2.19 Opinion of Probable Cost
The CONSULTANT shall prepare an opinion of probable construction costs at two different
times during the project. Near the conclusion of preliminary design an opinion of probable cost
will be developed for each alternative alignment under consideration in the preliminary design
process. These estimates will be presented to the OWNER during the final selection alignment
meeting. These preliminary opinions of probable cost will include probable cost estimates only
for any alignments still under consideration at the time. The opinion of probable cost for the
final selected pipeline alignment will be updated to include easement acquisition (if required). A

Re: April 13 City Council Meeting Agenda Item
The Public Works Department respectfully requests that the following item be placed on the
April 13 City Council agenda, under Public Works Department Reports, for diSCUSSion with
Mayor and Council:
ReQuest to Purchase Water Meter Radio Read EQuipment
Given the recent building rate in this City, we are setting a record number of water
meters. With those water meters comes the obligatory task of reading them every
month for billing purposes. Three meter readers are currently employed and a fourth will
be needed by the end of this year if we are to continue to read meters each month via
the "touch-read" technology.
Radio Read TechnoloQY
New technology exists whereby meters are read by radio in a vehicle traveling down the
streets. Staff has investigated this technology and a vendor performed demonstrations
for us here in town.
In brief, a vehicle is equipped with a computer and radio receiver and simply drives down
a street as the computer ''wakes up" each meter which is equipped with a transmitter.
The transmitter relays the monthly water consumption to the computer in the vehicle.
The laptop computer is taken back to the office at the end of the day and synced up with
the server, which then transmits all the consumption data to MUBS. We estimate that all
the meters in the City could currently be read in two days.
The system meshes with our existing meters (same manufacturer). Battery life in the
transmitter units is warranted for 20 years.
. Page 1
Labor Cost Savinas
We (Len Grady) completed an economic analysis of the radio read system over twenty
years to determine if the technology costs were less than the future meter reading labor
costs. The analysis determined that over twenty years, $710,000 would be saved. This
savings, however, does not reflect the fact that each builder would actually be paying for
the meter radio transmitter (at $90/meter). At current population projections through
2023, builders through their building permits will pay for $1.16 million in meter radio
transmitters. Therefore, the City would see an actual out-of-pocket savings of
approximately $1.87 million. However, the $710,000 million figure is the actual savings
to the community as a whole.
The spreadsheets detailing the economic analysis are attached.
Radio Read Proaram Proposal
We do not intend to retrofit the entire City at once. We would likely prioritize retrofit of
commercial meters because of the time involved in walking to commercial meters and
the reader's susceptibility to traffic while doing so. Additionally, every new building
permit will require a meter capable of radio read.
Eventually we will use some of the savings to retrofit development in a geographically
logical order. For example, we may choose to outfit entire 1-mile sections that are
distant from the Water Division office in order to reduce drive time by the manual meter
readers every day.
Regardless of the eventual areas outfitted with radio read, we will always want to visit
each meter pit once or twice a year to make a visual inspection and ensure that the
meters are not damaged.
Current Request
The vendor who supplies our current "touch-read" meters, InvensyS@, is Offering us a
discounted "starter kif through April 30 (purchase order due to local supplier, United
Pipe & Supply, by April 23). The kit would contain the equipment necessary to begin
radio reading and 50 meter transmitters.
We have not brought this to you lightly and believe we have done sufficient research and
analysis to justify this program. We also had a third party, Civil Science Engineering,
review the proposal. A copy of their letter from Matt Shipp, PE is also attached.
Finally, we are prepared to address this program long-term in our upcoming Strategic
Plan Report and amend the ordinance as necessary to implement the meter fees
required to fund the radio read meters.
Request of Council: Approve purchase of radio read starter kit for $23,000.
Thank you for your consideration.

Meridian, Idaho 83642
Brad,
This letter is in response to your request that I review the proposed automated meter reader (AMR) that
you are looking into for purchase and use for the City of Meridian.
First off I would like to give you a bit of my background. Before moving into this position J currently hold
with Civil Science Engineers, I was a public works director for a city in Utah that had a population of
approximately thirty seven thousand (37,000); very similar in fact to Meridian. I have also experienced
many of the same growing pains that a city like Meridian is experiencing.
The reason that I tell you this is because last year, I started a program of looking for upgrades to our
AMR system for the city. Our reason was two fold. First, the existing system that we were utilizing was
old and in need of replacement. Second, the city needed a way to ensure that it was raising the proper
amount of revenue needed to operate the water system.
We went through a very lengthy process of research and review where we looked at many of the
systems out there that would meet our needs. One of those that we did review was the Invensys
system that you are proposing to use. We found that the Invensys was a top notch product.
While we did not use the Invensys, it was not because the product did not meet our needs and
expectations. We instead went another direction because of the existing meters that we already had in
place and we would have needed to replace all of our meters at a greater cost than we were able to
bear.
While I have not been involved in the interviewing and demonstrations that have occurred with
Invensys and Meridian, I would say that you would do well to use this system as your source of AMR
as long as it meets with your set requirements and expectations.
If you have any further questions or would like to meet and discuss this issue further, please call.
Sincerely,

Makes Reading Utility Meters as Easy
as Walking or Driving Along the Street
he RadioRead System provides for the fast. efficient, reliable a.nd
economical automated reading of water, electric and gas meters via
the radio transmission of meter reading data.
How It Works: The meter register or index is connected to a Meter
Transceiver Unit (MXU) that transmits reading data via radio signals.
When activated by a wake-up signal from an RF-HHO hand-held or
RadioRead@AMR System.
20
in-vehicle reader/recorder, the MXU transmits the meter's 10 number
and current reading back to the reader/recorder where it is stored in a
solid-state memory for later downloading at the utility office.
. Reliable Operation Via Superior DSSS Technology: Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum RF technology provides greater
transmission ranges, greater signal dependability and optimum
immunity from signal noise and interference than non-DSSS
systems. DSSS signals get through where others can't
. Works In Harsh Environments: Electronic components are facto-
ry-sealed against moisture infiltration, making them suitable for use
even in in-ground meter boxes and vaults that are subject to flooding.
· Read Water, Electric And Gas Meters: Can be used to read many
brands of meters equipped with compatible registers or indexes.
Especially useful for combination utilities.
. Walk Or Drive The Route: For walking the route to collect read-
ings, a hand-held or belt mounted Invensys Model AR-4002 RF-HHD

reader/recorder is used. For driving the route, an lnvensys Vehicle
Transceiver Unit (VXU), small and portable enough to be used in any
vehicle as needed, is used. The Model AR-4002 can also be used to
collect readings from TouchRead System and other meters.
· Read In Both "Blind" And "Geographic" Modes: Individual
meters can be read on demand, or the entire route can be read with-
out the need for route or location parameters.
· Read MUltiple Meters With Just One MXU: Each Meter
Transceiver Unit (MXU) has two ports, each of which can be expand-
ed to handle up to eight meters with an Invensys MultiRead@ Port
Expander Module.
· Built-in Error Detection Diagnostics: Notifies of completed
readings, any problems and MXU battery status.
-Improves Meter Reader Safety: Eliminates the need to access
meters in hard-to-reach and hazardous locations.
· Simple Installation: MXU's are designed for fast, easy installatfon.
· Easy And Safe On-site Battery Replacement: Rated for a 10-year
service life, MXU batteries feature a Simple snap-in design and are
rated for conventfonal disposal.

AutoVu On-Screen Graphic Mapping Software
Used with a portable Vehicle Transceiver Unit (VXU). the optional
AutoVu mapping program uses-Global Positioning Satellite (GPS)
technology to graphically show the location of each meter on a route
map, and verify readings as the vehicle moves along the route.
Just a few of its many features and benefits are:
- Shortens meter-reading time to help reduce costs.
· Route maps are automatically repositioned as the
moves along.
· Provides for setting up routes for optimum
and other information can be put on maps.
. Can be set for meter-location symbols to change
as readings are obtained.
. Alerts to high and low parameter discrepancies and
equipment problems.

APPLICATION SUMMARY & LOCATION
The applicant, Sutherland Farm, Inc., has requested approval for the third phase of Sutherland
Farm Subdivision. This phase consists of 36 single-family residential building lots and 8
common area lots on 12.9 acres in an R-4 zone. The gross density of Phase No. 3 is
approximately 2.79 dwelling units/acre. The net density is approximately 5.23 dwelling
units/acre.
Sutherland Farm Subdivision No.3 is located approximately Yi mile east of S. Eagle Road on
the north side ofE. Easy Jet Drive (E. Girdner Ln.).
A Conditional Use Permit for a Planned Development was approved for this project which

The final plat that was submitted shows three less lots than was approved on the preliminary
plat. Two of these were in Block 12, and one was in Block 11. Staff has no objection to this
change.

Fulfer Subdivision No.2
Final Plat approval of Forty-Seven (47) Single-Family Residential Building Lots
and Two (2) Common Lots on 14.32 Acres in an R-4 Zone, by Kevin Howell
Construction (File No. FP-04-020).
From:
Re:
We have reviewed the above referenced submittals and offer the following comments, as
conditions of approval. These conditions shall be considered in full, unless expressly
modified or deleted by motion of the Meridian City Council:
APPLICATION SUMMARY
The applicant, Kevin Howell Construction, has applied for Final Plat approval of 47 single-
family residential building lots and two common lots on 14.32 acres of land for Fulfer
Subdivision No.2. This is the second phase in what has been known in the past as Kelly
Creek Subdivision. During the recording of the first phase, the name Kelly Creek was not
allowed by the County Engineer, so the name was changed by the applicant to Fulfer
Subdivision.
The current zoning designation for the proposed subdivision is R-8 (Medium Density
Residential). The application incorrectly states the zoning as R-4; staff has verified per
annexation ordinance 03-1053 that the zoning is R-8. This subdivision will have a gross
density of 3.28 d.u./acre and a net density of 4.59 d.u./acre.
The common lots within the subdivision consist of an open space/drainage lot (Lot 7, Block 9)
and a micropath lot (Lot 7, Block 3). Both lots will be owned and maintained by the Fulfer
Neighborhood Association. The pressurized irrigation system within this development will be
owned and maintained by Settler's Irrigation District.
EXHIBIT 'A' Page 1 of6
Planning & Zoning Commission/Mayor & City Council
Hearing Date: April 13,2003
Page 2
The submitted final plat shows a reduction in open space when compared to the preliminary
plat as follows:
· The micropath lot (Lot 7, Block 3) has been narrowed from 20 feet to 15 feet.
· The open space/drainage lot (Lot 7, Block 9) has been reduced by about 5 feet on the
east side and by about 35 feet on the west side. This is equivalent to about 0.1 acres of
open space less than the Preliminary Plat. The Preliminary Plat had 7.59 acres
(9.51 %) open space and the full acreage of open space was made a condition of the
CUP.
The applicant should demonstrate how the reduced open space will be made up in this phase or
future phases prior to approval of the final plat.
The following minor change is also proposed by the applicant and is recommended for
approval by staff;
· Along the west boundary, Lot 6, Block 8 was increased from 64 feet wide to 76 feet
wide. Lots 2-8- were decreased from 80 feet to 72-.::J-6 feet wide. All lots still meet the
minimum lot size and frontage approved with the Planned Development for Fulfer
(Kelly Creek) Subdivision.
A Conditional Use Permit/Planned Development was approved for the proposed subdivision
which allowed for a mix of residential and commercial uses in the R-8 zone, reduced lot sizes,
reduced frontage requirements, and an allowance for blocks within the subdivision to exceed
the maximum block length of 1,000 feet.
Staff recommends approval of the final plat for Fulfer Subdivision No.2, upon resolution of the
reduced open space, with the comments and conditions stated in this report.
LOCATION
The proposed Fulfer Subdivision No.2 is located on the NW corner of N. Linder Road and W.
McMillan Road in the SE l;4 oiSection 26, T.4N., R.1W.

this proposal for central sewage and central water; that plans must be
submitted to and approved by the Idaho Department of Health and
Welfare, Division of Environmental Quality for central sewage and

disposal and design a stormwater management system that is
preventing groundwater and surface water degradation. Manuals for
guidance:
1. State ofIdaho Catalog of Storm water Best Management Practices
For Idaho Cities And Counties. Prepared by the Idaho Division
Of Envirorunental Quality, July 1997.
2. Stonnwater Best Management Practices Guidebook. Prepared by
City of Boise Public Works Department, May 2000.
1.2 Adopt the comments ofthe Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District as
follows:
1. Nampa & Meridian Irrigation wishes to withhold all
comments on the above-mentioned project until all License

Board of Directors ofNampa & Meridian Irrigation District.
Once these requests are complete Nampa & Meridian
Irrigation District would have no further comment on this
project to go forward for final approval.
2. All storm water is being retained onsite; this is acceptable to
the District.
3. The pressure irrigation is being hooked-up to an existing
pump station. The pump curves will have to be checked to

suggests that a six (6)~inch line be looped around the entire
perimeter of this project in order to ensure adequate pressure
for this proj ect.
4. You have also spec'd out three (3)-inch irrigation lines for the
main line. N ampa & Meridian Irrigation District's minimum

hard to find parts for at times. There are also two (2) dead-
end lines. One, south and east of the pool area with the other
one is north and west ofthe pool area. The two (2)-inch lines
ORDER OF CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF FINAL PLAT FOR SAGECREST

adequate pressure for the number of services on them.
2. The final plat upon which there is contained the Certification and signature ofthe City
Clerk and the City Engineer verifying that the plat meets the City's requirements shall be signed only
at such time as:
1. The Plat dimensions are approved by the City Engineer; and
