First item up is adoption of the agenda. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: I move that we adopt the agenda as published. Cavener: Second. Simison: Have a motion and a second to adopt the agenda as published. Is there any discussion? If not, all in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay? The ayes have it and the agenda is adopted as published. MOTION CARRIED: ALLAYES. PUBLIC FORUM — Future Meeting Topics Simison: Mr. Clerk, anyone signed up under public forum? Johnson: Mr. Mayor, yes. Gina Johnson. Simison: Okay. Gina, if you would like to come forward, be recognized for three minutes. G.Johnson: Members of the city, my name is Gina Johnson. I represent the Video Garners and the various charities as -- just as a charity board president. Today I would like to discuss with you a proposal that would require further discussion for affordable housing. In this world today we see a lot of need for housing development, but we are not always seeing unique style or themed opportunities that word allow us to change direction from what we see as a standard. My proposal is on behalf of my own organization and we would like the city to consider some of the ideas that will be explained in this pamphlet that I will hand out and it can be discussed at a further time. Those ideas include an IKEA. We have a way to get it in a nontraditional format. We have the ability to build up to 2,000 affordable tiny home units that have modular furniture. We have the ability to provide low income rent for a lot of different charities. A one stop government service shop for all the different cities, counties, state and federal in one area. All of this is a really big project. It's not something simple that can be explained in three minutes. So, I hope that this community -- this Council understands that you can't just look at housing as a one issue thing. You can't just look at nonprofit charity needs as a one issue thing. This year I have attended the Idaho Educational Technology Association conference and I will be attending the Affordable Housing Conference here in April. Idaho Views is coming around the corner. I would like the Council to really consider what is its mission the summer during construction. Is it to stay with the standard or to look beyond and develop the new? Idaho has the opportunity and Meridian can be the nexus point for that. Thank you. Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 3 of 21 PROCLAMATIONS [Action Item] 1. Owyhee Boys Basketball State Champs Simison: Thank you, Gina. With that we will move on to our first item for this evening, which is a proclamation for the Owyhee Boys Basketball State Champs. If I could have the team, coaches, Dr. Bub, Principal Rice, I will join at the podium that would be great. So, Council, you may remember last week when we did this for another state champion from another school in Meridian I said I really liked the wrestling team better, because they were a little bit more my height, so -- but, nonetheless, we are excited to be here again with the Owyhee High School, not just some basketball, but -- and other sports, it seems like this is becoming a reoccurring theme here in the City of Meridian, so we are excited to honor you today with the proclamation and celebrate your achievements here in the City of Meridian. So, with that I will go ahead and read the proclamation and, then, turn it over to the coach, then, let's go ahead and have each player state their name, position, and year at school, so we can get that on the record for everybody and we will go from there. All right. Whereas being an Owyhee High School boys basketball player is more than scoring points, making assists, grabbing rebounds, stealing the ball and achieving state titles, it is training to build leadership, character, confidence, teamwork and resilience, all traits needed to succeed on the court, in the classroom and in the real world and whereas Owyhee High School has captured another 5A boys basketball team championship and brought home a second title for the third year program and whereas Owyhee finished the year 24 and two with a perfect conference record and Owyhee Storm basketball team with an impressive 57 to 36 win in the 5A state championship game, returned the state championship to Meridian and whereas the leadership, training and discipline of their coaches help all team members to focus their talents, passion and determination to become a winning team, with each player making valuable contributions to their victory. Therefore, 1, Mayor Robert E. Simison, hereby proclaim April 2nd, 2024, as Owyhee High School Boys Basketball State Champions Day in the City of Meridian and call upon the committee join me in congratulating the Owyhee High School on their remarkable athletic achievement and for representing Meridian so proudly in the state tournament, dated the 2nd day of April 2024. Congratulations, team. Harrington: Player's name, grade, position. Let's go sophomores first. Knowles: Gavin Knowles. Sophomore. Forward. Allen: Jordan Allen. Sophomore. Guard. Rogers: Kaden Rogers. Freshman. Owyhee. Forward. Brekke: Ryan Brekke. Sophomore. Forward. Haustveit: Logan Haustveit. Sophomore. Guard. Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 4 of 21 Howell: Body Howell. Junior. Guard. Allen: Jayce Allen. Junior. Guard. Rasmussen: Jackson Rasmussen. Junior. Guard. Rogers: Jackson Rogers. Junior. Guard. Downie: Cameron Downie. Junior. Guard. Campbell: William Campbell. Senior. Shooting guard. L.Campbell: Liam Campbell. Senior. Shooting guard. Lukasik: Jacob Lukasik. Coach. Baldwin: Matthew Baldwin. Coach. Harrington: Andy Harrington. Coach. Nugent; RC Nugent. Coach. Harrington: Andy Harrington. Head coach. Just really quickly I wanted to say thank you to the City of Meridian, West Ada School District. I guess I need to lean in. Owyhee has been an amazing place to coach at. These kids have been phenomenal. Our support from West Ada and Meridian has been there from the beginning and we are continuing to look forward to continue building Owyhee into a high level basketball program. Really looking forward to coaching these guys again next year. We are really going to miss Liam. Everyone else standing here is back, so cannot wait for the future and it's going to be very bright. So, thank you. Cavener: As Mr. Mayor is making his way back to the podium, I just -- I know that Owyhee has a celebrity super fan in Mayor Chadwick, but it's always good to remind the public that Owyhee is a school that's in Meridian, not Star, and I think it's important that the record reflects that I'm very proud of Owyhee, another great Meridian high school. 2. National Osteopathic Medicine Week Simison: Well stated, Councilman Cavener. All right. If I could have Tracy Farnsworth and the team from ICOM come forward. As they do, for many here, it's no secret that another great team that we have in the -- in Meridian is ICOM, which houses Idaho's only medical school. So, we are super excited to have them here for what they do to help prepare the needs for our community long term. So, it's really appropriate that we are here to honor you all today with a proclamation as well. So, we will go ahead and do that and, then, turn it over to Dr. Farnsworth for any comments. So, whereas more than 186,000 osteopathic -- osteopathic physicians and osteopathic medical students Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 5 of 21 bring their distinctive approach to providing healthcare for millions of patients across the U.S. and whereas the oath practiced in every medical field specialty, combining medical expertise with a whole person approach, centered on listening to and partnering with their patients and we are asking more than 11 percent of all physicians in the U.S. and more than 25 percent of all U.S. medical students are DOs who have chosen to practice osteopathic medicine and have made tremendous contributions to the American healthcare system. Whereas osteopathic medicine was founded by Andrew Taylor Still, MD, DO, more than 130 years ago and Idaho's roughly one thousand DOs dedicated to improving the health of their communities through patient centered care focused on treating the body, mind and spirit and whereas the City of Meridian is proud to have Idaho's first and only osteopathic medical school in our community. Therefore, I, Mayor Robert E. Simison, do hereby proclaim April 15th through 21st, 2024, as National Osteopathic Medicine Week in the City of Meridian and encourage all citizens and community organizations to support this observance by helping to educate members of the public about DOs and osteopathic medicine, dated the 2nd day of April 2024. Congratulations. Farnsworth: Mayor, thank you. We are all very proud Idahoans and very proud Meridianites. In fact, I want you to know that four of the five standing behind me are high school graduates from here in Meridian. Two from Renaissance High School and one from Rocky Mountain and one of our distinguished faculty graduated from Centennial High School. So, our feeding is athletes -- and they are all athletes. All high school athletes. So, athletes today and medical students -- medical doctors tomorrow and one day we will be firemen even. If we can reach that height that would be our -- can I have them just briefly introduce themselves, Mayor? Could we do that, please? Jordan: Hi. My name is Nicole Jordan and I'm a second year at ICOM. I attended Renaissance High School and I was equestrian during high school. Yes. Hawks: She was actually a Miss Idaho Rodeo Queen, too. Don't forget that. I'm Theron Hawks. I went to -- I'm an OS-2. Went to Rocky Mountain. Played basketball. Hill: My name is Tanner Hill. I'm also a second year at ICOM and, like Nicole, I went to Renaissance High School as well. Parkinson: I'm Dr. Justin Parkinson, someone on the faculty, for family medicine faculty physicians and I grew up and I -- I went to Centennial, which is technically Boise I think, actually, but -- but that's okay. We still -- I lived in the Meridian district, they just moved the boundaries on me back then. Bates: Dr. Rodney Bates. I am primary care chair and associate professor of internal medicine. I practice internal medicine at St. Luke's Nampa. So, great to be with all of you. Appreciate all of the dear students. They are wonderful in our arts. So, I grew up and graduated from another city that starts with M. Many of you probably don't know where that is, but it's Murtaugh. So, Murtaugh High School grad. Played basketball and football. Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 6 of 21 RESOLUTIONS [Action Item] 3. Resolution No. 24-2444: A Resolution of the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Meridian, Appointing Terrence Green to Seat 1, Jared Cozby to Seat 2, and Marvin Ward to Seat 7 of the Meridian Q Impact Fee Advisory Committee; and Providing an Effective Date Simison: Thank you. Council, moving on to Item 3, which is a Resolution No. 24-2444. a resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of Meridian appointing Terrence Green to Seat 1, Jared Cozby to Seat 2 and Marvin Ward to Seat 7 of the Meridian Impact Fee Advisory Committee and providing an effective date. We have had some people who have stepped down from the Impact Fee Advisory Committee and had been working and, sorry, this one got lost in the shuffle with everything else. We thought we had done this a while back, but we have got three great people to come on in support of our impact fee conversation. They range -- which there are requirements for these positions. Realtor being one of them. So, we -- Jared is the realtor in that context. Someone that is understanding fire. I don't think anyone could do that better than one of our rural fire commissioners in Marvin Ward. So, have that connection between the city and our impact fees and what they provide I think would be a great addition and, then, Terrence Green, who is -- who was looking for a way to get involved. He has got a strong financial banking background and I think that he will be a true asset to the impact fee advisory committee. So, with that I put this resolution before you for consideration and be happy to answer any questions. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Really fantastic applications. I know Council appreciates receiving all the background on those folks. With that I move that we approve Resolution No. 24-2444 appointing Terrence, Jared and Marvin to the Meridian Impact Fee Advisory Committee. Cavener: Second. Simison: Have a motion and a second to approve Resolution No. 24-2444. Is there any discussion? If not, all in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay. The ayes have it and the resolution is agreed to. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. DEPARTMENT / COMMISSION REPORTS [Action Item] Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 7 of 21 4. City Council: Recognition of Councilman Joe Borton Simison: Council, we have reached Item 4 on our agenda, which is City Council recognition of Councilman Joe Borton. Joe, would you like to make any comments first or would you like the Council to go first with anything that they would like to say? Borton: I will go last. Simison: Okay. Joe is going to go last. So, any -- any takers? Any comments? Taylor: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Taylor. Taylor: I will get the party started, because I don't have years of experiences and stories to tell. I will get it done quickly. I have months. But I want to share one story and I will -- then I will be quiet. I met Joe officially last summer when I was visiting with a few members of Council just to ask questions and to learn about the job a little bit and at the end of the conversation I asked him a question and his answer really stood out to me and I think about it a lot. I asked do you have any advice and without hesitation he said just fall in love with Meridian. Just the way he said it. And it was really interesting the way you said that and he just said just love your community, love the people you serve, but just fall in love with the city. That was it. Very simple, very direct to the point, but in such few words I thought you conveyed a lot and as I have watched you conduct yourself just in the short time we have been together I have really admired what you have done. You have obviously had a big impact on the city, even though our time has been short and I feel a little bit robbed of some -- some good times and some good counsel, I still think the advice you gave me was -- was very well received, very impactful and it just says a lot about your character and -- and what you think of the city and so I really admire you for that and I'm really grateful that you are willing to step into another role of service. That's the other thing I remember you talked a lot about is this job is about service and so I think you -- you -- there is a lot to admire about that in your example for all of us, you know, not just on the Council, but in the city. So, I really appreciate it and wish you the best of luck. Little Roberts: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Little Roberts. Little Roberts: I had to make notes and I have made them and torn them up. Joe and I had a parking lot conversation the other night and I think I started crying then. So, my first question was who will give the talk to new or returning councilman after an election? When I was first on Council it was Keith Bird. Then this year it was you. You were the perfect one to talk to us about we may disagree, but we will never be disagreeable. You set the bar high because every day you live it. Your thoughtfulness and intention says everything. It shows in everything that you do and say. The evening Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 8 of 21 that you told us you had been appointed to Fourth District Court I took notes, because I -- I didn't take notes on -- I took notes on what we were talking about, but I took notes on how you summarized the discussion points and focused so thoughtfully on what you saw making a difference in this community, not only this year, but next year, ten years and beyond. Your thoughtful summaries always acknowledge the hard work that all parties have contributed, even when you vote against the project. You are an encourager. Always cheering others on whether it's to run for City Council or at city Chamber softball games. You are always that encouragement. You are wise, which is one of the many many reasons that you will make a great judge, but more often than not you would rather help someone find their own voice than to voice or share yours. You have a -- I have appreciated serving with you beyond what words can express, but more than that I have had the years of appreciating your friendship. Congratulations, you will be an excellent judge. You embody every day those qualities that make a judge effective. We will miss you. When we ask what would Joe do and I did not know about the shirts, so that's worth coming today. The answer will always be process it thoughtfully, thoroughly and with the future in mind. Thank you. Overton: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Overton. Overton: So, Joe, your influence on me goes back to when I worked for the city in the police department and we looked to many council members back in the past for their assistance and guidance and even when you weren't our liaison you were always there to help us if we needed something. When I first came to the point of being on the Council you were one of the people I looked to the most because of your knowledge and one of the things that -- I don't know that you fully understand is when people come onto this Council I think you mentor them without even knowing it, because you lead by example. You have that ability to how you lead the city and you just tend to be the person, whether you acknowledge it or not at the time, that everybody is looking to you as an example of how things should be done and done right and, hopefully, we can try to come as a group and carry on and carry that forward as we go into the future. But that's a big hole to fill that you are leaving. Appreciate you very much. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: All right. I don't like getting very emotional, but I do have a few kind words to say about Joe. When I met Joe and worked with him on the City Council I realized that he was brilliant, that he really knew his stuff. I realized that he read every word of every packet for each meeting and that is something that's to be commended, but it speaks to his diligence and the effort that he puts into grinding things out, doing it the right way. One of the best moves that Joe ever made was marrying Sharon Borton, who is deserving of just as much praise for the beautiful family that they have built together and I have no doubt that she is one of the secrets behind his tremendous success. I Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 9 of 21 apologize for the many road trips I have interrupted with my pesky phone calls asking for advice. Joe is a genuine person. He has a huge heart and he has done more to help me learn how to do City Council than anyone else. Joe has provided that advice. Always willing to listen. His fingerprints are all over everything that we do, every process the City Council has at this point, whether it's reviewing the budget, whether it's how we go about different things, a lot of it has to do with Joe's relentless focus on having the right process to get the right outcomes. The final thing that I will say that I appreciate about Joe, unlike many politicians, Joe is someone I can say he has guts and he stands up for things when he really believes in them and when they are important and everything is not just a political calculation for Joe. Joe really cares about doing the right thing and he decided that he loved having his family raised in this community. He wanted this community to be the best that it can be and I appreciate that about him. So, thank you. You will be the best judge Idaho has ever seen and we are lucky to keep having you serve our community, but I just really appreciate you and your whole family. Thanks. Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: The past year and a half -- this is weird. I love you and this whole thing is just weird. But in the past year and a half I have found that there is a pathway between voicing gratitude and the waterworks that come from here. So, I -- the good news is that means I will probably be relatively brief, but it also means brief is subjective. I wrote some notes, because as I learned from a good friend you only get one shot at this and Joe is an inspiration. He is an inspiration to all of us and I -- as I was thinking about today and not looking forward to it, I started thinking about what is it about Joe that inspired me and it's four things. First it is his integrity. Joe has more integrity in his pinkie than most people have in their whole life, except for maybe when it comes to poker, but that's a conversation for another day, but up here as a Council leader you lead with integrity, which speaks to -- I think number two, which is -- which is honor and it's fitting that that's what you will be referred to moving forward is Your Honor. Being on a Council for some people is a -- is a thing they just do or they look at it as a stepping stone for something else, but Joe served with honor. It wasn't a job, it was the job and saw that from day one and -- and it's fitting that we have heard as people thought about running for City Council they talk to you. I was one of those as well and you -- you lead with honor and you are an example for all of us. The third is probably the biggest one, which is -- which is service. We -- we serve. We don't just serve here, we serve in many different facets outside of this building and I just admire your service to our community as a council member, but your service to our community -- as a coach and as a mentor and as a business leader, it's always exciting when you are out campaigning and you knock a door that's got a Borton for City Council sign in the yard, because you know these people have a story they want to share about the impact that Joe has made on their life, often not as a city council member, but as a coach or a community leader. The fourth one, his family. It's great so many of the Bortons are here. Some of you don't know, we had a little event for Joe today that he was roughly Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 10 of 21 about 45 to 50 minutes late and it -- it caused some worry and so I was fortunate -- I text Mrs. B and said, hey, have you seen Joe and it just provided a unique opportunity to -- to thank the Bortons for sharing Joe with us and don't just thank your family, I thank you, Joe for the impact you have had on the Cavener family. The Mayor talked today about the many people in our community that have benefited from Joe's advice -- both Council advice and legal advice and the Cavener her family has benefited from both and there is a -- there is a depth of appreciation that I will never be able to fully repay, but I will try, which brings me the part that I'm excited about is you are going to this new job and you have been an inspiration to me and I thought it would be fitting to pass some things along to you that may serve as an inspiration in your new role and it's hard to shop for a guy who has everything, but I'm going to try. So, the first is I have an autographed Judge Wapner photo. Now, it -- it doesn't include a certificate of authenticity, but eBay seller Faustino's dad has assured me that it is legit. So, I will have that for you. In addition, I'm excited, I didn't know that this existed, a -- a mint condition Judge Mills Lane trading card. I'm sure a highly sought after. This is important -- again, you start to run out of judge things, but a -- a Judge Dredd action figure -- again I think also probably a collector's edition item. Terminator Two Judgment Day on Blu-Ray. I thought that's something good to have and, then, I love your shirts and there is not really a good judge shirt, so I thought a Judge Reinhold T-shirt would be nice under -- under the robe and so these are all for you and -- but I have one more thing -- and I did talk to the Mayor and our parks director is not here, but, you know, from time to time we have had the opportunity to recognize community leaders. We have Rountree Field at Fuller and, of course, the great Keith Bird Legacy Park, but there is nobody on our Council that has been more of a friend of the feline community than -- than -- than Mr. Borton and so -- and, Mayor, I apologize, I didn't talk to you about this, but I think it is important that we have a -- a cat park in Meridian. You have been a champion for that and I'm excited to announce that -- it came in under budget, but I have for you a token of appreciation, the Joseph W. Borton mobile cat park. You can actually take this with you everywhere you go and cats -- there is lots of activities and fun projects and I just thank you so much for your impact in our community and I know that you will display this proudly in your home for years to come and maybe pass it down to the family members. So, my way of saying thank you for all you do. Borton: Oh, Cavener -- Simison: Anything else, Mr. Cavener? Cavener: No. The -- the plaque -- the plaque is removable. That's -- that's an important feature, so you can -- you can put that wherever you -- correct. It's a safety -- Mr. Mayor, that concludes my -- my comments and I appreciate you all indulging me a little bit this evening. Simison: Well, I don't know if we can top that. You know, I don't know what I was complaining about. No one's worked harder to get him off of this council than I have during this -- during those last, you know, eight months or so. I have had an opportunity to speak three times about Joe, you know, once in our employee meeting, something Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 11 of 21 without the community upstairs, but I do think that there is one thing that I don't know that anybody but you have heard me say and it's a little long in that context and I don't think I will be emotional, but, you know, when Joe kind of -- when Joe mentioned that this was something he was interested in doing in pursuing the district court judge route, I wrote a letter to the governor outlining -- and while there is going to be some stuff that's going to be a little off tangent I still think it holds true and I -- I would like the rest of the Council to at least hear and I have not changed any words, so this is the actual -- these are the words. I'm writing in support of Joe Borton's candidacy to be appointed as district court judge to the Fourth Judicial District. I trust the vetting process conducted by the state of Idaho Judicial Council has shown Joe to be a top candidate with the knowledge, skills and abilities, as well as the temperament, integrity and independence to serve the public as a member of the judiciary. Joe believes in taking the conservative approach, is a true and dedicated public servant and has my highest recommendation. The people of the state of Idaho would be well served by having him in this role. For the more than 15 years I have known Joe all of what I stated in my May 1 st, 2023, letter to the executive director of the Judicial Council and the selection panel holds dear to me. Joe has continued to grow his skills as a lawyer, public servant and father. Joe's worked with a large variety of clients, cases and issues. I know this because of the multitude of friends, acquaintances and professional organizations who choose to utilize him as their attorney. He works tirelessly for those who have needs which are crucial to families and he understands the importance of the law. He ensures the public is protected as he advises local government clients to keep them free from legal challenges and Joe gives his time freely to multitudes of nonprofit organizations, so they can use their limited financial resources to best carry out their mission. Throughout his years as a member of the Meridian City Council Joe has been the champion for fair and timely deliberations on all matters, bringing an impartial perspective. In land use matters before the City Council Joe listens to all testimony, questions and comments. He identifies areas of concern that can be addressed and articulates a path forward under the confines of statute. By correctly applying legal standard before the City Council he is able to help the city move forward in its decision making process for the quasi-judicial role. He does so by making sure the actions are reflected by the record that has been presented. Further, Joe's a conservative voice and strong champion for openness and transparency in government process. It was in 2007 with one of my first interactions with Joe was an employee of the city that I first had the opportunity to work with him while he was serving as city council president. It was in this role that I first experienced Joe's judicial temperament and thought process. Specifically I witnessed the value and importance he puts on listening to understand and asking questions to clarify. Values that Joe has only refined and made stronger over his tenure. Over the years Joe Borton has taught me many things by applying the principles I know he adheres to in his practice in life. He taught me how to take time and listen to others. He has taught me to trust the process. He had taught me how to serve my community. When I noticed that if I ever needed an attorney Joe would be my first call. If I ever needed someone to mediate a situation Joe would be the best person for the job and if I ever had to end up before the court Joe's the person I want to have presiding over my case. Once again I want to thank the State of Idaho Judicial Council for their vetting process, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. For these reasons I encourage you to appoint Joe Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 12 of 21 Borton to the district court of the Fourth Judicial District of Idaho. That all remains more true than you realize and it's been a pleasure having you up here, wherever you have been in this community helping out and living your voice, but appreciate you more than you know. The floor is yours. Borton: Let's do another round. Start on the -- let's just keep it going. I think you're the best. Let me first for -- for those here and watching online, Councilman Cavener referenced it. I'm glad you did, Luke. My wife Sharon is here. Love you. Thanks for coming. My eldest son Jack and his fiancee Lauren are here. So, thank you for coming. It's great to have friends and family present at the end of this. I have got a good photo of my first swearing in and the boys were maybe waist high and now they are grown -- grown adults and back in the Treasure Valley. So, I guess I have got -- I will be really brief. I promise. I will try. I won't promise. But let me be brief. I have got an ask and an opportunity. What I thought about. And the ask is more to everyone in the room. I appreciate you being here and folks that are online that may watch and here is the ask -- is there is lots of opportunity in your community, in your church and school board meetings or wherever you encounter the community where people will blanket complain or -- or question or disparage government. That government has to be bad or it's bad or it's wasteful or it's dumb or it's corrupt or something like that. But you have up here some of the greatest, kindest, most thoughtful, dedicated public servants and any time I get the question or a comment where somebody says something about government that is just a blanket statement that tries to disparage it, I speak up. My ask is to speak up. If somebody ever says to you that local government doesn't work or it's wasteful or dumb or anything like that, speak up. Folks that know people up here -- tell them it's not the case, because you know folks -- you know Anne Little Roberts. Good council member. Tell them about Anne. Tell them how we -- if you need any questions or concerns regarding public safety and someone who is dedicated to make sure you wonder why your community's safe, go talk to Anne Little Roberts. You want to understand why they have got perspective, the Council up here has perspective on what happens, decisions and how they have long-term effects and how they consider that. Talk to John Overton. There is a wealth of great talent and love for the community up here. If you want to talk about love for the community talk to Councilman Cavener. I wouldn't say he loves the community, I would probably say he is in love with the community. Councilman Cavener gets emotional because he cares so much about all the employees and making this the best city ever. Doesn't happen by chance. They question local government, talk to Doug Taylor. He is brand new and he is -- he has dived into it with a perfect perspective, great temperament, asking the right questions, trying to make sure it's the right decision, not coming in thinking there is a problem and he has got a solution, but try to understand it. That's a great servant leader. You want to understand how our city remains debt free and -- and maintains a strong budget, the best in the state, you have got folks like Council Woman Liz Strader, who knows the numbers and takes the time to make sure that things are done correctly with a long-term focus. None of that happens by chance. So, I always speak up when someone ever were to question government and disparaging and say, no, you have got it wrong. Maybe in DC, maybe down in Boise at the capitol, maybe, but I tell you what not in Meridian. You don't know these folks. So, welcome those questions if anyone Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 13 of 21 questions local government and speak up. That's my ask to help people. The blessings that I have had serving with all of you and the folks that came before us. The comments for the people that I'm leaving I have a confession to make, but over 14 years when mayors leave and council members leave, I, in essence, grieve for a bit. I get sad and I grieve, because you can tell the relationships up here are professional, but they are also personal. We have a close bond and a close tie, so it's hard and I have gone through a lot of them and it takes time and -- and I worry, you know, what happens when that individual leaves. How are we going to go on? And what I figured is a way I cope through it and I will leave you with this -- it's I think a bit more like an opportunity. When somebody leaves, a mayor or council member in Meridian, there are folks that remain have an opportunity and that opportunity is to let things slide, to kind of allow things to kind of degrade a little bit, not pay attention as much with a budget, maybe not focus on long-term planning, maybe try to, you know, make short-term efforts, you have an opportunity to relax your standards, to relax, how -- you know, the bar that you set for yourself and that's what would always scare me, because I know there is the opportunity when someone leaves to do that, to relax and to not be as great as you want to be. To also have the opportunity when someone leaves -- and I'm no different -- to fill the void by being better and it kind of forces you to revisit your commitment to the long-term commitment that you make to be a good council member, to make your decisions focusing on the process and the plan and the good work that leads to the decisions we make. You know, we talk many times about the success that our city has, the reason it's, you know, the police and fire -- thank you, fellas, for being here, by the way. I really appreciate that. That doesn't happen by chance. I think these are long- term decisions. You have success today because of things that happened ten, 20 years ago. So, the diligence and the energy to exert -- I call it an opportunity to -- to fill that void and remain focused on those long-term commitments. Don't worry about what people might be mad about in ten or 20 weeks or ten or 20 months, focus on the decision that's right in ten to 20 years when we are all gone., So that's what gives me comfort. That's what makes me feel like there couldn't be a better time for me to go on to my next journey, because you have got the best council members up here, diverse in their experience, diverse in their perspective, diverse in their backgrounds and skill sets and you have got a Mayor who has the courage to lead like -- kind of like a dad in a way that might be grumpy and might make decisions that aren't popular; right? But his job is not to be popular and liked by everybody, his job is to be a steward of the city and, Mayor, you do it well and it's hard and you take arrows, you do, but, you know, leaders take arrows and so I appreciate your perspective and leadership doing that. Easy to criticize, hard to lead, so I think you are doing a fantastic job and so I feel comfortable and very confident that when you all think of the opportunity you have, you are going to fill my absence, you won't skip a beat, so long as you remain diligent on that long-term focus planning and process and Meridian is going to continue to succeed. So, it's been a blessing. It's been a blessing to be a part of it. I'm thankful -- and you, like -- like me, but you all sacrifice time from your families; right? You have got kiddos and husbands and wives and everybody that you leave every Tuesday to come down here and do all this, so I thank you all for that sacrifice as well and to your family, because it's a lot. So, Meridian is in good hands. The timing is perfect. I will miss you dearly. I miss this nerdy process of local government. I love it as much as I did day one. So, thank you Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 14 of 21 for the kind words. That really means a lot. It really does. Gives me things to pause and kind of reflect on. Lots of ways we can choose to spend our time and the fact that we all choose to spend it up here together to make our community better is special, so I have been blessed to raise a family in the greatest city in the state, so I'm forever in your debt. So, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Simison: Call a five minute recess. (Recess: 6:49 p.m. to 6:56 p.m.) ACTION ITEMS 5. Public Hearing for Watts Meridian Medical Partners (SHP-2024-0001) by Focus Engineering and Surveying, located at 1256 S. Rackham Way A. Request: Short Plat consisting of two (2) building lots on 2.53 acres of land in the C-G zoning district. Simison: All right. We will go ahead and come back from recess and move on to Item 5, which is public hearing for Watts Meridian Medical Partners, SHP-2024-0001 . We will open this public hearing was staff comments. Allen: Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council. The first application before you tonight is a request for a short plat. This site consists of 2.53 acres of land. It's zoned C-G and is located at 1256 South Rackham. The Comprehensive Plan future land use map designation is mixed use regional. The short plat proposed consists of two building lots on 2.53 acres of land in the C-G zoning district for Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision. Access is proposed from South Rackham, an existing local street along the west boundary of the site and from the drive aisle at the east boundary of the site. A 25 foot wide cross-access easement is depicted along the shared lot line between Lots 1 and 2 for shared access between the two lots. Staff is recommending this drive aisle is constructed in its entirety with the first phase of development. ACHD is requiring pavement widening for South Rackham Way and construction of curb, gutter and sidewalk. No additional right of way is needed. A detached sidewalk is proposed along the northern boundary of the site along Flat Iron Lane. Curb, gutter and an attached sidewalk is proposed along the southern boundary of the site abutting the proposed drive aisle and curb and gutter is proposed along the eastern boundary of the site adjacent to the existing drive aisle. A ten foot wide street buffer is required along South Rackham Way, landscaped in accord with UDC standards. A 50 foot wide permanent access easement crosses the southwest corner of the site as depicted on the plat and that is this area right here. It was recorded with the previous plat that includes this property. Staff had recommended this easement be amended or partially vacated in accord with the proposed plat. However, the applicant states they are unable to do so, because it's a dual purpose easement that also contains a gas line for Intermountain Gas Company that runs through the southwest corner the site that will provide gas to Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 15 of 21 both of the future buildings. The gas company is unwilling to amend or vacate their easement. For this reason staff recommends removal of Conditions Number 3-C and 6 pertaining to amendment or partial vacation of this easement. Staff further recommends deletion of the comments pertaining to additional right of way dedication in conditions 3- A and 4-A as additional right of way is not required by ACHD. Staff is recommending approval of the proposed short plat with the aforementioned deletions. Written testimony was received from Adam Watts, the applicant, in response to the staff report and he is online tonight if you have some questions. That concludes staff's presentation. Thank you. Simison: Thank you, Sonya. Council, any questions for staff? Taylor: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Taylor. Taylor: Not a question for staff, but just a disclosure. I did have a -- did not know at the time, but I do have a relationship with the applicant from ten years plus when I lived in Virginia. We played on the same basketball team. But consulted with our good attorney and found just disclosing it is enough where we don't have an existing relationship in terms of communication on these topics. I don't think it will affect any of my decision making. Simison: Thank you. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Thank you. Sonya, thank you. I just wanted to check with the drive aisle recommendation. Is that something that the applicant has accepted and it's already within the condition of approval or does that need to be spelled out if we decide that that's something important to add? Allen: Mr. Mayor, Vice-President Strader, are you referring to the traffic backing out into the drive aisle, the comment and the analysis, or are you referring to a condition of approval? Strader: There is a recommendation from staff to ensure that the first phase of development includes the construction of the drive aisle. I'm just trying to narrow in on whether that requires a change in the conditions. Allen: That is a condition of approval that exists and the applicant is in agreement with that condition. Strader: Perfect. That's what I thought. Thank you. Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 16 of 21 Allen: Thank you. Simison: Council, any additional questions for staff? Okay. Then would the applicant like to -- looks like they have unmuted themself. You are recognized for up to 15 minutes. Watts: Thanks, Council Members, for spending your time tonight and thanks for letting me and everybody else listening. That was -- that was quite the tribute to the president there. I have never seen that. So, must -- must be quite a guy. Let me first start off saying that Council Member Taylor is an excellent ballplayer and, yes, it's been probably 12 years since we played ball together. So, anyway -- yes. So, this is a short plat in front of you. We have spent a lot of time going back and forth. Sonya has been fantastic in helping us kind of digest and put everything together that we feel like is a -- is a great development here. We have met with ACHD a few times. We have met all of their requirements as she has stated. We are okay with building that drive aisle access with phase one. In fact, it's -- it's needed and we are happy to do that. I don't have any other kind of updates for you. I'm here to answer any questions that you have, but we have spent a lot of time trying to get this right and get it in front of -- in front of you guys here tonight. Simison: Thank you. Council, any questions for the applicant? Besides who was a better player? Taylor: Mr. Mayor. It was me. However, Adam was a very good three point shooter. Simison: Okay. All right. Thank you very much. Mr. Clerk, is there anyone signed up on this item? Johnson: Mr. Mayor, no. Simison: Okay. We had no one sign up. Is there anybody present that would like to provide testimony on the item or if you are online use the raise your hand feature. Seeing no one online or raising their hand, would the applicant like any final comments or do they waive? Watts: No further comment. Thank you. Simison: Okay. Waives final. So, Council, what's your disposition? If you like we could phone a friend. He's not that far away. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Hi hope we don't have to do that. I'm sure that would be an ominous sign for him for the coming years. I think -- I think we will manage. It's made good sense to me. Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 17 of 21 It seems to fit well with the area. I think it's a good short plat. It feels like most of the issues have been ironed out. Happy to make a motion, unless someone else has a concern or question. Perfect. Mr. Mayor, I move that we close a public hearing. Cavener: Second. Simison: Motion and second to close the public hearing. All in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay? The ayes have and the public hearing is closed. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Strader: Fantastic. Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: After considering all staff, applicant, and public testimony, I move to approve File No. SHP-2024-0001 as presented in the staff report for today's hearing date with a couple of quick modifications. We will go ahead and remove conditions 3-C and 6 pertaining to the vacation of the easement, as well as conditions 3-A and 4-A, as those conditions no longer pertain to this application they are not required by ACHD and it sounds like the drive aisle construction in phase one has already been agreed to by the applicants and within the conditions. Thanks. Allen: Mr. Mayor, make one clarify -- Simison: One second. Can I get a second? Cavener: Second. Simison: Motion and second. Sonya. Allen: Staff did not recommend conditions 3-A and 4-A be stricken in their entirety. Only the portions pertaining to additional right of way possibly being needed. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Yeah. I amend my motion to reflect that it only pertains to the additional right of way. Cavener: That's what understood. So, second agrees. Simison: Second agrees. Okay. Have a motion and a second. Is there discussion on the motions? Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 18 of 21 Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: On the motion. Cavener: Always thank staff for keeping us right and focused, so I appreciate that. Strader: Uh-huh. Okay. Simison: And with that ask the clerk to call the role. Roll Call: Borton, absent; Cavener, yea; Strader, yea; Overton, yea; Little Roberts, yea; Taylor, yea. Simison: All ayes. Motion carries and the item is agreed to. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. 6. Public Hearing continued from March 12, 2024 for Avani Neighborhood (H-2023-0049) by Conger Group, located at Southeast of Franklin Rd. and Black Cat, North of 1-84. A. Request: Annexation of 35.086 acres of land from RUT to the R-15 (Medium High Density Residential) zoning district. B. Request: Preliminary Plat consisting of 256 buildable lots and 25 common lots on 33.71 acres of land in the proposed R-15 zoning district Simison: With that we will move on to Item 6, which is a public hearing continued from March 12th, 2024, for Avani Neighborhood, H-2023-0049. We will continue this public hearing with any comments from staff. Hersh: Good evening, Mr. Mayor and Council Members. This application was continued and during the March 12th hearing City Council directed staff to prepare the conditions of approval and findings for the scheduled hearing of today April 2nd, 2024, and the applicant has sent a response that they are in agreement with those conditions. Also since the last hearing we did receive written testimony from one letter on 3/15/2024 from Gail Simpson with concerns with Meridian having the infrastructure to deal with more traffic, schools and/or businesses and that concludes staff's presentation for tonight and I stand for any questions. Simison: Thank you. Council, any questions for staff? Would the applicant like to make any comments? The applicant is there. If you would like to make questions, but not asking to make any at this time. Okay. Anybody in the public that would like to provide testimony on the information provided? Seeing none. Does the applicant waive Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 19 of 21 any final comments? Applicant waives any final comments. Council, what's your direction? Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: Move we close the public hearing on Item 6. Little Roberts: Second. Simison: Have a motion and a second to close the public hearing on Item 6. Is there any discussion? If not, all in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay? The ayes have it and the public hearing is closed. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: I move we approve Item 6, application H-2023-0049 as presented and include all staff comments. Little Roberts: Second. Simison: Have a motion and a second to approve Item H-2023-0049. Is there discussion? Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Yeah. Just -- I -- I will be a no vote this evening and it's just my convictions around the project not being within the Ten Mile Specific Area Plan. I normally, actually, when we get to this phase would just vote with the project, considering it's kind of going that direction, but I do feel very strongly about this particular one and I want my vote to be reflected that way. So, that's why I'm voting that way. It's nothing personal and I do hope that you guys are very successful with it. Thanks. Taylor: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Taylor. Taylor: A comment. As I was reviewing the notes from the hearing. I went and watched some of it. I did want to, again, reiterate I really appreciate Bill and Stacy and the staff, Meridian City Council April 2,2024 Page 20 of 21 the advice that they gave I think they did exactly what we had asked them to do. I also -- I think as we considered this application I think it was one of those situations where it was Council's decision to kind of weigh in with our different perspectives on kind of how we thought this would go. So, again -- and I agree, I hope that applicants are successful. I agree with Councilman Strader and I think it's a good project. I'm encouraged by what we are seeing out there. I know there is a lot of work to be done and I know as we consider what kinds of policies we adopt as a city and how we want to see things grow. I think those are also subject to modifications, updates, changes in a way that we think best reflect the situation on the ground. So, again, I think it was a healthy debate. I think it was a good discussion and I think it was our former good Council Member Borton who said -- I can't remember if he said it right in the hearing or right after, that the process -- or maybe it was you, Mayor. Maybe I will give you the credit. He said the process worked the way it should, even though we found ourselves in the situation where we were voting against the recommendations of the staff, but yet the process worked and I think that was a really good reflection of kind of where we are as a city and staff and everything. So, I wish the applicant well on this and I think it's a good project. I will be supporting it. Simison: Any other comments? All right. Ask the Clerk to call the roll. Roll Call: Borton, absent; Cavener, yea; Strader, nay; Overton, abstain; Little Roberts, yea; Taylor, yea. Simison: Three ayes. One no and abstain. Motion passes and the item is approved. MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE NAY. ONE ABSTAIN. ONE ABSENT. 7. Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law for Avani Neighborhood (H- 2023-0049) by Conger Group, located at Southeast of Franklin Rd. and Black Cat, North of 1-84. Simison: With that we will move on to Item 7, which is Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law for Avani Neighborhood, H-2023-0049. Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: I move we approve Item No. 7, H-2023-0049. Taylor: Second. Simison: Have a motion and seconded to approve Item 7. Is there any discussion? If not, clerk will call the roll.

Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Unless there is a future meeting topic, I move that we adjourn the meeting. Simison: Motion to adjourn. All in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay? The ayes have it. We are adjourned. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. MEETING ADJOURNED AT 7:11 P.M.

Rackham Way. Comprehensive Plan FLUM Designation: Mixed-Use Regional (MU-R) Summary of Request: A short plat is proposed consisting of (2) building lots on 2.53-acres of land in the C-G zoning district for Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision. Access is proposed via S. Rackham Way, an existing local street along the west boundary of the site and via the drive aisle at the east boundary of the site. A 25’ wide cross-access easement is depicted along the shared lot line between Lots 1 & 2 for shared access between the two lots; Staff recommends this drive-aisle is constructed in its entirety with the first phase of development. ACHD is requiring pavement widening for S. Rackham Way and construction of curb, gutter and sidewalk; no additional ROW is needed. A detached sidewalk is proposed along the northern boundary of the site along Flat Iron Ln. Curb, gutter and an attached sidewalk is proposed along the southern boundary of the site abutting the proposed drive aisle; and curb and gutter is proposed along the eastern boundary of the site adjacent to the existing drive aisle. A 10’ wide street buffer is required along S. Rackham Way, landscaped in accord with the standards. A 50-foot wide permanent access easement crosses the SWC of the site as depicted on the plat that was recorded with the previous plat that includes this property. Staff had recommended this easement be amended or partially vacated in accord with the proposed plat; however, the Applicant states they are unable to do so because it’s a dual-purpose easement that also contains a gas line for Intermountain Gas Co. that runs through the SWC of the site that will provide gas to both of the future buildings. The Gas Co. is unwilling to amend or vacate their easement; for this reason, Staff recommends removal of conditions #3c & 6 pertaining to amendment or partial vacation of this easement. Staff further recommends deletion of the comments pertaining to additional ROW dedication in conditions #3a & 4a, as additional ROW is not required by ACHD. Staff Recommendation: Approval with the aforementioned deletions.

Broadway Ave., Ste. 102 Meridian, ID 83642 RE: Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision—Meridian,ID Short Plat Application Response Letter Dear Ms.Allen, On behalf of Reves LLC,the current property owner,located at 909 South Allante Place,Boise,ID 83709, I have drafted the below response letter to that certain Staff Report Community Development Department dated 4/2/2024 regarding the Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision located at 1256 South Rackham Way,Meridian,Idaho. VIII. CITY/AGENCY COMMENTS & CONDITIONS A.3 Short Plat Revisions (a) We have updated the current plat to depict pavement widening for Rackham Way and curb,gutter and sidewalk as required by ACHD as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto which is also found in our corresponding civil engineering plan set. Please note that additional right-of-way is NOT required to be dedicated at this time per that certain Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision/MPP24-0005/SHP- 2024-001 as approved by ACHD on March 25,2024 and attached hereto as Exhibit B.We will provide a permanent right-of-way easement from 2-feet behind back of curb along Rackham Way to 2-feet behind back of sidewalk on our existing site plan per ACHD's requirements. (b) The existing street buffer will NOT be affected by pavement widening on Rackham Way, as such,there are no changes to the plat that are required. The plans currently meet the 10-foot wide street buffer requirement from back of curb to back of detached sidewalk as shown on Exhibit C attached hereto by providing for an 8 foot park strip and 5 foot detached sidewalk totaling 13 feet of street buffer. The applicant will enter into a license agreement with ACHD and will comply with their tree planter policy for landscaping in the 8 foot park strip along Rackham Way. (c) We are unable to amend or partially vacate that certain 50.0 foot wide permanent access easement (Inst. #2018-041517,Inst.#202 1-1 1 6525)that crosses the southwest corner of our site. This is a dual purpose easement that not only provides permanent access but also contains a gas line for Intermountain Gas Company that runs through that southwest corner of our site and will provide gas to both of the future buildings. We have spoken with both David Drake and Bryce Ostler at Intermountain Gas Company and they are unwilling to amend or vacate their easement. Further, in the event they did so,they would need to turn around and ask for an easement in a similar location to be able to provide gas to our buildings given the location of their existing gas line. We have also spoken with Bill Parsons and walked him through this analysis and all parties are in agreement that(i)the gas line easement is embedded in the 50.0 foot wide easement; (ii)we would need an easement somewhere along that southwestern portion of our property to allow Intermountain Gas Company to provide natural gas to our development; and(iii)the access 4571 South Holladay Blvd.,Holladay,UT 84117—www.rigbbMatts.com easement portion doesn't affect the site plan nor buildings as they sit. For all of the above reasons we will not be able to accommodate or accomplish the City's request under VIII(A)(3)(c). A(4)Landscape Revisions (a) Given that no additional right-of-way will be required for ACHD in accordance with Exhibit B,we will not need to adjust the location of the 10-foot wide street buffer given we are already meeting this requirement as detailed above. (b) We will revise the current landscape plan to depict a minimum of seven(7)trees within the street buffer along Rackham Way in accordance with UDC 11-3B-7C. A(5)East/West Drive Aisle We will accommodate the east/west drive aisle between Lots 1 and 2 with the first phase of development as indicated on our civil engineering plans. AM 50-Foot Wide Permanent Access Easement See comments above regarding inability to accommodate this request. V. STAFF ANALYSIS Staff has recommended,but not required,that we reconfigure our entire site such that vehicles aren't backing out from parking spaces into the main drive-aisle. There are many nuances to this recommendation that would negatively affect the overall viability and success of the development. Parking:parking is the life blood of any successful medical/dental/health care development. Removing the parking stalls in front of the Phase 1 building would be removing 14 parking stalls from the phase 1 development reducing parking from 76 down to 62 or only 2.85 parking stalls per 1,000 square feet. To be successful,these kinds of offices require 3.75 to 4 parking stalls per 1,000 square feet given patient/client flow to be able to sustain long term viable businesses. This would render the development unfeasible not to mention the parking stalls lost in Phase 2. The development has been set up in a such a way so that both phases can interchangeably share parking back and forth to further enhance the patient experience. After several different iterations our engineers found this layout to be the most efficient as it relates to parking stall count,building sizes and setback and landscape requirements. Further,the access road between the two buildings is only accessible from one public road,Rackham Way which has very little traffic. In addition,there are two other ways to access this from Flatiron to the north and from Silverston Way to the east cutting through the Norco property and hotel property. Because our building will be situated at the outermost western edge of the development we do not anticipate any traffic that is not specific to the buildings to be cutting through our property to save time or to access Overland Road to the South. In addition,the development immediately north of our property(see below)has the same parking layout wherein cars are having to back out into the main drive aisle to exit their property. 2 Wir +r/s.� 1®li4mav +nw , Wei / I � Tr me You find these kinds of parking situations/layouts in most developments that either share a main drive access/aisle or that are larger in nature. Another example is a development we recently finished in Farmington,Utah(see below)wherein our approach was the same as the project under consideration which was to create a two lot medical/dental office subdivision that shared parking back and forth. You see that the same approach was followed with cars having to back out into the shared drive aisle. This did not raise any red flags for safety given the size of the project and the location of the development which is at the end of a road much like the project under consideration. Given the above reasons we believe it would be detrimental,in fact non-feasible,to implement the recommendation to redesign and reconfigure the site such that vehicles aren't backing out from parking spaces into the main drive aisle. �ro 112 qa r0 I sa' / 15 2 • 18 iv 15 a (TYP_) 16 [ 27 24.0' 11 24 26'I V� SQ 30.tr 1p / 3 { 20 51r 8 1 (y27}� 1 18a 1B.Y ITYP.)

Findings for Consideration 1. Site History/Oxygen Subdivision No. 3 This site is located within Oxygen Subdivision No.3. On June 22, 2017, ACHD approved a preliminary plat for Oxygen Subdivision No.3 abutting the unpaved portion of Rackham Way. As part of ACHD's action, the applicant of the Oxygen Subdivision No.3 was required to improve the unpaved portion of Rackham Way abutting their site with pavement widening and the construction of curb, gutter, and sidewalk. As part of ACHD's January 2018 approval of the final plat for Oxygen Subdivision No.3 that applicant provided an improvement agreement and financial surety in lieu of constructing the improvements on Rackham Way. The original improvement agreement expired in January 2019 and was extended for an additional year with an expiration date of January 19, 2020. The applicant asked for an additional extension of the improvement agreement on January 5, 2021 and the financial surety for these improvements (letter of credit) expired on January 10, 2021. Because the improvement agreement and financial surety for the improvements to Rackham Way have expired and have not been constructed, the current applicant of the Watts Meridian Medical Center, will be required to make frontage improvements on Rackham Way abutting their site. 2. Rackham Way a. Existing Conditions: Rackham Way is improved with 2-travel lanes and no curb, gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. There is 59-feet of right-of-way for Rackham Way (32-feet from centerline). b. Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct curb, gutter, an 8-foot wide planter strip, and 5-foot wide detached sidewalk. c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal exceeds District policy and should be approved, as proposed. The applicant should be required to construct Rackham Way as '/z of a 36-foot wide local commercial street section abutting the site. For detached sidewalk, the applicant should be required to provide a permanent right-of-way easement from 2-feet behind back of curb to 2-feet behind back of sidewalk. 3. Driveways 3.1 Rackham Way a. Existing Conditions: There is a 15-foot wide unimproved driveway from the site onto Rackham Way located 210-feet south of the site's north property line (measured centerline to property line). b. Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is proposing to construct a 26-foot wide curb-return type driveway located 178-feet south of the site's north property line (measured centerline to property line). The applicant is proposing to construct a 31-foot wide curb-return type shared access driveway on Rackham Way located at the site's south property line. c. Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicant's proposal meets District policy and should be approved, as proposed. 6 Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision / MPP24-0005 / SHP-2024-0001 C. Policy 1. Federal Accessibility Design Guidelines and Standards District policy 7203.1.1 states that developers shall follow the current version of the U.S. Access Board's Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way (PROWAG), 36 CFR Part 1190, September 7, 2023; (Also see, https//www.access-board.gov/prowag and https//www.access-board.gov/files/prowag/planning-and-design-for-alternatives.pdf for additional information). 2. Minor Improvements Minor Improvements Policy: District Policy 7203.3 states that minor improvements to existing Highways adjacent to a proposed development may be required. These needed transportation facilities are to correct deficiencies or replace deteriorated facilities. Included are sidewalk and/or bike lane construction or replacement (with physical buffers if missing and needed); construction of transitional sidewalk segments; crosswalk construction or replacement; curb and gutter construction or replacement; repair, replacement or expansion of curb extensions; replacement of unused driveways with curb, gutter, sidewalk, repair or addition of traffic calming or speed mitigation features; installation or reconstruction of pedestrian ramps; pavement repairs; signs, motor vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle traffic control devices; and other similar items. The current version of PROWAG will determine the applicable accessibility requirements for alterations and elements added to existing streets. ACHD staff is responsible for identifying the minor improvements that would be proportionate to the size and complexity of the development. 3. Livable Street Performance Measures District policy 7203.8 states that ACHD has adopted performance measures (level of stress) for evaluating the experience of bicyclists and pedestrians. ACHD seeks to create a transportation network that serves all ages and abilities. Bike and pedestrian facilities built through development should achieve a bike and pedestrian level of traffic stress 1 or 2, with no new bike lane below a minimum of 5-feet. 4. Rackham Way Commercial Roadway Policy: District Policy 7208.2.1 states that the developer is responsible for improving all commercial street frontages adjacent to the site regardless of whether or not access is taken to all of the adjacent streets. Street Section and Right-of-Way Policy: District Policy 7208.5 states that right-of-way widths for new commercial streets shall typically be 50 and 70-feet wide and that the standard street section will vary depending on the need for a center turn lane, bike lanes, volumes, percentage of truck traffic, and/or on-street parking. • A 36-foot street section (back-of-curb to back-of-curb)will typically accommodate two travel lanes and on-street parking. • A 40-foot street section (back-of-curb to back-of-curb)will typically accommodate two travel lanes and a center turn lane. • A 46-foot street section (back-of-curb to back-of-curb)will typically accommodate two travel lanes and a center turn lane and bike lanes. Sidewalk Policy: District Policy 7208.5.6 requires a concrete sidewalks at least 5-feet wide to be constructed on both sides of all commercial streets. If a separated sidewalk is proposed, a parkway strip at least 6-feet wide between the back-of-curb and street edge of the sidewalk is required to provide increased safety and protection of pedestrians. Consult the District's planter width policy if trees are to be placed within the parkway strip. 7 Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision / MPP24-0005 / SHP-2024-0001 A permanent right-of-way easement shall be provided if public sidewalks are placed outside of the dedicated right-of-way. The easement shall encompass the entire area between the right-of-way line and 2-feet behind the back edge of the sidewalk. Sidewalks shall either be located wholly within the public right-of-way or wholly within an easement. Half Street Policy: District Policy 7208.2.2 required improvements shall consist of pavement widening to one-half the required width, including curb, gutter and concrete sidewalk (minimum 5- feet), plus 12-feet of additional pavement widening beyond the centerline established for the street to provide an adequate roadway surface, with the pavement crowned at the ultimate centerline. A 3-foot wide gravel shoulder and a borrow ditch sized to accommodate the roadway storm runoff shall be constructed on the unimproved side. 5. Driveways 5.1 Rackham Way Driveway Location Policy: District policy 7208.4.1 requires driveways near intersections to be located a minimum of 75-feet (measured centerline-to-centerline) from the nearest local street intersection, and 150-feet from the nearest collector/arterial or arterial street intersection. Successive Driveways: District Policy 7208.4.1 states that successive driveways away from an intersection shall have no minimum spacing requirements for access points along a local street, but the District does encourage shared access points where appropriate. Driveway Width Policy: District policy 7208.4.3 restricts commercial driveways to a maximum width of 40-feet. Most commercial driveways will be constructed as curb-cut type facilities. Driveway Paving Policy: Graveled driveways abutting public streets create maintenance problems due to gravel being tracked onto the roadway. In accordance with District policy, 7208.4.3, the applicant should be required to pave the driveway its full width and at least 30-feet into the site beyond the edge of pavement of the roadway. Driveway Design Requirements: District policy 7208.4.3 states if an access point is to be gated, the gate or keypad (whichever is closer) shall be located a minimum of 50-feet from the near edge of the intersection and a turnaround shall be provided. 6. Tree Planters Tree Planter Policy: Tree Planter Policy: The District's Tree Planter Policy prohibits all trees in planters less than 8-feet in width without the installation of root barriers. Class II trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 8-feet, and Class I and Class III trees may be allowed in planters with a minimum width of 10-feet. 7. Landscaping Landscaping Policy: A license agreement is required for all landscaping proposed within ACHD right-of-way or easement areas. Trees shall be located no closer than 10-feet from all public storm drain facilities. Landscaping should be designed to eliminate site obstructions in the vision triangle at intersections. District Policy 5104.3.1 requires a 40-foot vision triangle and a 3-foot height restriction on all landscaping located at an uncontrolled intersection and a 50-foot offset from stop signs. Landscape plans are required with the submittal of civil plans and must meet all District requirements prior to signature of the final plat and/or approval of the civil plans. 16. Pathway Crossings: United States Access Board R304.5.1.2 Shared Use Paths. In shared use paths, the width of curb ramps runs and blended transitions shall be equal to the width of the shared use path. AASHTO's Guidelines for the Development of Bicycle Facilities 5.3.5 Other Intersection Treatments: The opening of a shared use path at the roadway should be at least the same width as the shared use path itself. If a curb ramp is provided, the ramp should be the full width of the 8 Watts Meridian Medical Partners Subdivision / MPP24-0005 / SHP-2024-0001 path, not including any flared sides if utilized. . . . Detectable warnings should be placed across the full width of the ramp. FHWA's "Designing Sidewalks and Trails for Access" (1999) reflected common ADA-related concepts: Chapter 6, Page 16-6: The width of the ramp should be at least as wide as the average width of the trail to improve safety for users who will be traveling at various speeds. In addition, the overall width of the trail should be increased, so the curb ramp can be slightly offset to the side. The increased width reduces conflict at the intersection by providing more space for users at the bottom of the ramp. D. Standard Conditions of Approval 1. All proposed irrigation facilities shall be located outside of the ACHD right-of-way (including all easements). Any existing irrigation facilities shall be relocated outside of the ACHD right-of-way (including all easements). 2. Private Utilities including sewer or water systems are prohibited from being located within the ACHD right-of-way. 3. In accordance with District policy, 7203.3, the applicant may be required to update any existing non- compliant pedestrian improvements abutting the site to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines (PROWAG), ISPWC, or ACHD requirements . The applicant's engineer should provide documentation of compliance to District Development Review staff for review. 4. Replace any existing damaged curb, gutter and sidewalk and any that may be damaged during the construction of the proposed development. Contact Construction Services at 387-6280 (with file number)for details. 5. A license agreement and compliance with the District's Tree Planter policy is required for all landscaping proposed within ACHD right-of-way or easement areas. 6. All utility relocation costs associated with improving street frontages abutting the site shall be borne by the developer. 7. It is the responsibility of the applicant to verify all existing utilities within the right-of-way. The applicant at no cost to ACHD shall repair existing utilities damaged by the applicant.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS LAND USE: This property is designated Medium High-Density Residential(MHDR)on the Future Land Use Map(FLUM)and is located within the area known as the Ten Mile Specific Area Plan(TMISAP). MHDR areas are recommended to develop primarily with relatively dense multi-family housing types, such as row houses,townhouses, condominiums, and apartments,not all single-family attached and detached homes as proposed by the applicant. These areas should have a mix of housing types that achieve an overall average density target of 12 dwelling units per acre with densities ranging from 8-15 units per acre.MHDR areas typically are relatively compact areas within a larger neighborhood and generally should be located around and near more intensely developed areas, such as Mixed Use Commercial or Employment areas,in order to provide convenient access to these commercial activity and employment centers for the greatest number of residents. As noted above,the proposed development incorporates a mix of single-family attached(95)and single- family detached(161)homes,resulting in an overall gross density of 7.59 units per acre inconsistent with the target density desired in the MHDR FLUM designation in the TMISAP. Townhomes should be included in this development to be more consistent with the plan;however,the property to the east has approval to construct a 552-unit multi-family development to offset the need for additional multi-family in the area. Mixed—Employment areas are also entitled or in the development process to the west, south, and southeast so it is conceivable that this development may provide additional housing options for these employment areas. TRANSPORTATION: ACHD's Master Street Map(MSM)depicts a new town center collector street across the southern portion of this property from the west to the east boundary eventually connecting to S. Ten Mile Road. The Transportation System Map in the TMISAP lists the functional classification for this street as a collector street and the Street Section Map lists the design classification as a major collector street,which is intended to be constructed consistent with Street Section C as follows: Page 6 1 1d' 9 B' 6' 1 r l r fi' ' d' tfte si e Lane 24' Lane 7 Cur�-n.cA dfslance This street is planned to eventually provide a connection from S. Black Cat Road to S. Ten Mile Road. The applicant is currently collaborating with the property owners directly to the south and east to complete the Collector Street(Vanguard Way)connection to Black Cat. It is the City's desire to have this street dedicated and constructed before residents occupy the homes in this development. Local streets,alleys, and common drives are proposed internally for access to the proposed residential units. Staff believes the plat should incorporate more alley-loaded lots however,the Applicant believes there isn't a market for this type of housing and has elected to limit the number of alley-loaded homes to ten (10)which is inconsistent with the Plan. BACKGROUND: Ten Mile Interchange Area was intended to look, feel, and function differently than a typical residential subdivision. It operates as a form-based specific area plan,where the design of the built environment is the primary review element and intended to work in conjunction with the land use and zoning designations. These design elements should not be treated as a checklist;but used to implement the overall vision and support traditional neighborhood design desired by the Plan. DESIGN ELEMENT: The design element is intended to serve as the basic framework for a project within the Ten Mile Interchange Area and the basis for the development of future design guidelines. They are considered the most important elements to"get right,"there is not flexibility allowed in the modification of design elements. Future development should be consistent with the design elements in the TMISAP for the MHDR FLUM designation as determined by the Application of the Design Elements table(refer to the table below). Staff s analysis for how the Applicant's design adheres to the applicable design elements are italized below. NOTE:Some of these design elements are not required by the UDC as envisioned by the Plan. Therefore, the applicant requests the Commission and Council allow some deviations to these design elements. Page 7 Page .

Street-oriented Design: Useable porches should be a dominant element of residential buildings and should be located along at least 30%of the front facade of the buildings—a higher percentage is recommended as is the location of porches on one or more side facades. When possible, garages should be Page 8 loaded from a rear alleyway. Where garages must be accessed from the front,the garages must be located no less than 20' behind the primary fagade. Front-loaded 2-car garages that are visible from the primary street must be designed with two(2) separate garage doors. Out of the 256 single-family units, only 10 are alley-loaded; the others are all front-loaded with living area either at the same plane or behind the garages away from the street. A few of the units have usable porches that might meet the guidelines. No porches are proposed on the side facades. All units have single 2-car garage doors, not separate doors. 3-34.Buildings to Scale: Everything seen and experienced from the sidewalk—building fronts,lighting, open space—should be designed for human interaction at a pedestrian's perspective.Key elements to consider are the continuity of the building sizes,how the street-level and upper-level architectural detailing is treated, elements that anchor and emphasize pedestrian scale,roof forms,rhythm of windows and doors, and general relationship of buildings to public spaces such as streets,plazas and other open space. Human- scale design is critical to the success of built places for pedestrians. Building entrances should be placed close to the street; ground floor windows,articulated facades, appropriately scaled lighting, awnings and other weather protection should be provided. The proposed elevations do not meet the design criteria that encourage building entrances to be situated close to the street,primarily due to their garage-dominated nature. Elevations for the alley-loaded units were not submitted with the application, making it difficult for Staff to determine if they comply with these guidelines. Lighting at a pedestrian scale should be provided on the buildings facing the street and internal walkways. A different product type should be provided for the detached and attached units with garages behind the units, and building entrances facing the street with front/side porches. 3-36.Neighborhood Design: All residential neighborhoods in the Ten Mile interchange area should be developed in consideration of traditional neighborhood design principles and concepts,which pertain to mixed housing stock, architecture and design, streetscapes and streets.Front porches and garages accessed from an alley are usually the standard in residential areas;parking for homes is primarily located behind buildings. Streetscape design relates to the street itself and consists of landscaped parkways with trees between curbs and sidewalks, adjacent sidewalks and front yard spaces and provides public space for street trees, street furniture and view corridors. Other aspects of neighborhood design that contribute to a traditional streetscape are connected network of streets, alleys and sidewalks. Roadways and pedestrian ways are interconnected so that access for pedestrians, cyclists and automobile drivers is direct and convenient and allows traffic to be dispersed through a variety of streets and ways.Narrower streets designed with TND characteristics result in slower moving traffic and provide a safer,more pleasant pedestrian environment and encourages interaction among residents. As previously noted, usable porches that meet the minimum guidelines are not provided for the single-family attached and detached units as desired. Alley-accessed garages and parking are only provided for the 10 detached units; the other 246 single-family units are all accessed from the street with parking in front of the garages facing the street, which is not desired. Shorter block lengths and narrower streets help build a greater sense of community. As proposed, these lots are narrow and garage dominated which creates more driveways and less tree-lined streets along the primary streets which is contradictory to TND principles. More alley-loaded homes would enchance the streetscape for this development and ground the front porches to the primary street per the Plan. 3-37.Building Form& Character: Building Facades—Buildings should be designed so that their primary facades relate to active public spaces and pedestrian areas. The primary fagade of a structure is that frontage of the building that has been designed and detailed so as to represent the building's most important elevations. The primary fagade should always include an entry into the building. Entries should be located so as to provide direct access from adjacent public spaces,primary streets and activity areas. Access from walkways should be uninterrupted by vehicular traffic. Buildings should be located so as to help frame Page 9 adjacent public spaces and to provide an architectural backdrop for associated passive and active activities. The space between a building fagade and the adjacent walkway should be appropriately landscaped with a combination of lawns, groundcover, shrubs and trees. Access from walkways to the main living areas is only uninterrupted by vehicular traffic for 10 alley-loaded units, as these units have garages accessed from the alleys. The other single-family attached and detached structures are not designed to have the primary fagade relate to active pedestrian areas,public spaces, or primary streets due to the orientation of the garages and building entries. Building entries are not the focal point of the homes and the front-loaded garages limit direct pedestrian access from the street because most of the entries are located behind the garages. As noted above, the 8 foot parkways are also diminished due to this design. Building Heights: Low-rise buildings of 2-4 stories over much of the area is recommended. A mix of one-story single-family and two-story single-family attached and detached structures are proposed in general conformance to this guideline. This applicant's preference is to have single-story homes along collector and arterial streets to enhance the streetscape. • Pitched Roofs: A mix of flat and pitched roofs are anticipated in the Ten Mile area based on a wide variety of individual buildings. Pitched roofs should be,where possible, symmetrical hips or gables,with a pitch between 4:12 and 12:12 with an overhang of at least 12 inches and a maximum of 2.5'. Roof brackets and rafter tail treatments are encouraged. All of the roofpitches proposed fall within the desired pitch range. Corbels are depicted some of the concept elevations; rafter tail treatments are encouraged as well as other design elements as noted in the ASM. Staff cannot verb if there is at least 12 inches of overhang for all of the one-story and two- story homes proposed. 3-47.Public Art: Public art should be incorporated into the design of streetscapes,public buildings,parks, transit,infrastructure,and other public projects in the Ten Mile area. Public art should be meaningful and encourage the free flow of ideas and cultural ideologies. Public art should be integrated into either the architectural design or the design of plazas and public spaces associated with a building and should be easily visible to the public (e.g.visible from the street or publicly accessible open spaces rather than interior courtyards). Public art is not proposed but could be provided in accord with this guideline. If the applicant desires to include public art as part of the development it would qualify as another amenity(I point). Goals,Objectives, &Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property;however,the TMISAP takes precedence over the Comprehensive plan(staff analysis in italics): • "With new subdivision plat,require the design and construction of pathways connections,easy pedestrian and bicycle access to parks, safe routes to schools, and incorporation of usable open space with quality amenities."(2.02.01A) The Applicant is proposing to construct 10 foot wide multi-use pathways along S. Black Cat Road and Vanguard Way(new collector)in accordance with the Meridian Pathways Master Plan Map.Additionally, a 5-foot wide micro path is proposed on the east side of the site, extending in a north-south direction. The following amenities are proposed.• community pool and changing rooms,fenced play structure, swing set, seating benches, climbing dome, climbing rocks,fenced dog park, and two(2)pickleball courts, exceeding the requirements outlined in UDC 11-3G-4. Page 10 • "Require all new residential neighborhoods to provide complete streets,consistent with the Transportation and Land Use Integration Plan."(2.02.01C) The plat illustrates that all internal local streets within this development are depicted as 27 foot wide street sections with curbs and gutters, allowing parking on only one side. "No Parking"signs shall be installed on that designated side of the street. The smaller street sections are encouraged in the TMISAP to promote pedestrian movement and access by enhancing connectivity and promoting walking. • "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote neighborhood connectivity."(2.02.01D) The proposed 10 foot wide pathways and 5-foot wide micro path provide connectivity to the Mixed Employment developments proposed to the south, the proposed multi family development(Vanguard Village) to the east, and the future medium-high density development to the north. • "Continue to develop and implement the desired vision in special areas, areas with specific plans, and along key transportation corridors."(3.03.01A) The TMISAP is a form-based specific area plan where the design of the built environment is the primary review element. The City's vision for this area is for all residential to have a Traditional Neighborhood Design.Front porches and alley-loaded garages are the standard and help to create a pedestrian friendly environment. Streetscapes should relate to the street itself and landscaping with trees between curbs and sidewalks, the adjacent,front yard spaces, and the building frontages. Staff finds that the proposed plat, landscape, and elevations do not align with the City's vision for this area. • "Annex lands into the corporate boundaries of the City only when the annexation proposal conforms to the City's vision and the necessary extension of public services and infrastructure is provided."(3.03.03) The Applicant's design does not align with the Plan; therefore, stafffinds it is not in the City's best interest to annex this property. • "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval, and in accord with any adopted levels of service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F) City water and sewer service is available and can be extended by the developer with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. • "Ensure that new development and subdivisions connect to the pathway system." (4.04.01A) The proposed subdivision proposes a 10 foot wide pathway along S. Black Cat Road and Vantage Point Way(new collector) in accordance with the Meridian Pathways Master Plan Map, thereby enhancing connectivity to future developments. • "Assess and compare response times to adopted standards for identification of additional needed resources."(4.11.0113) This project currently falls in an area where emergency personnel don't have response times that meet NFPA 1710 standards or the current City of Meridian adopted standards. The first due station is Fire Station 2. This fire station is approximately 2.8 miles from the project. • "Foster a walkable and bikeable community through good site and street design."(5.01.01A) The pathways and sidewalks within the development contribute to creating a walkable community. However; the proposed narrower street sections should coincide with shorter block lengths or traffic calming to provide a more compact, diverse, and walkable neighborhood as envisioned by the plan. Page 11 ACHD is also requiring shorter block lengths or passive traffic calming. • `Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and the extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City of Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development."(3.03.03A) The proposed development will connect to City water and sewer systems with development of the subdivision;services are required to be provided to and through this development in accordance with current City plans. • "Encourage the integration of public art as an integrated component with new development". (5.03.01B) Public art is not proposed with this development as emphasized by the TMISAP. Public Art should be included as a fundamental element in new development projects within the TMISAP. This policy suggests a commitment to fostering a visually enriched and culturally vibrant environment by actively encouraging the inclusion of artistic elements as an integral part of the overall development strategy. Public art could be displayed either at the entrance to the subdivision and/or within the large central park proposed in the development. VI. STAFF ANALYSIS A. ANNEXATION(AZ) The Applicant proposes to annex 35.214 acres of land with an R-15 (Medium-High Density Residential) zoning district which is listed in the Zoning District Compatibility Matrix in the TMISAP as one of the best choices for zoning in the MHDR designation. A preliminary plat and conceptual building elevations were submitted, included in Section VIII, showing how the property is proposed to be subdivided into 256 building lots and 25 common lots for the development of 10 single-family detached alley-loaded dwellings, 95 single-family attached dwellings& 151 single-family detached dwellings. The proposed residential use and mix of housing types may be consistent with the MHDR FLUM designation; however,the proposed density of 7.59 is below the target density of 12 dwelling units per acre. The proposed architectural design does not comply with the TND guidelines in the TMISAP, as discussed above.Development in this area should conform to these guidelines in order to be deemed consistent with the Plan and determine if it is in the City's best interest to annex this property. This property, is surrounded by an existing light industrial development to the west(Black Cat Industrial future residential uses to the north, future multi-family development to the east(Vanguard Village), a future R-15 development to the north(extension of Baraya), and mixed employment(M-E)proposed to the south. A legal description and exhibit map for the boundary of the property proposed to be annexed is included in Section VIII.A. This property is within the City's Area of City Impact boundary and within the area governed by the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP), as discussed above in Section V. The City may require a development agreement(DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. A DA is not necessary based on staff s recommendation of denial. B. PRELIMINARY PLAT(PP): A preliminary plat is proposed consisting of 256 [95 single-family attached, 10 alley-loaded, and 151 single-family detached units] building lots and 25 landscape, six(6) common driveways,two (2)alleys, and one(1)non-buildable lot on 33.707-acres of land in the R-15 district. Proposed lots range in size Page 12 from 2,436 to 5,357 square feet(s.f.)with an average lot size of 3,584(sf.)The subdivision is proposed to develop in three(3)phases as shown on the preliminary plat in Section VIII.C. Single-family attached and detached dwellings are listed as a principal permitted use in the R-15 zoning district per UDC Table 11-2D-2. The proposed plat appears to comply with the R-1 S zoning standards. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures on the property that are proposed to be removed upon development. Dimensional Standards(UDC Table 11-2D-6): The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the R-15 zoning district. There is a 2,000 minimum lot size in the R-15 district; each building site is required to be of sufficient size to meet the minimum setbacks for the district. Access: Access is proposed via the extension of Vantage Point Way, a new collector street, along the southern boundary of the subdivision. Vantage Point Way will extend to the west boundary across Black Cat Road to be extended with the Black Cat Industrial Development(H-2021-0064). Vantage Point Way should be constructed in accordance with Street Section C(major collector street)in the TMISAP,which requires(2) 11-foot travel lanes, 6-foot bike lanes, 8-foot parkways with streetlights at a pedestrian scale, and minimum 6-foot wide detached sidewalks (see pg. 3-20, 3-22, 3-23). The Applicant proposes a modification of the street section to include 10-foot wide detached sidewalks/pathways in lieu of on-street bike lanes,which is required by ACHD and as set forth in the Meridian Master Pathways Plan. All streets should be constructed as complete streets as defined in the TMISAP (see pg.3-19 &3- 20). Prior to submitting the final plat,the Applicant shall coordinate with the property owner to the south and east to construct Vantage Point Way and deed the right-of-way to ACHD. The Applicant should ensure that the intersection of Vantage Point Way and S.Black Road aligns with the entrance of the Black Cat Industrial projects on the west side of S.Black Cat Road. The Applicant is proposing one(1) curb cut-off of Vantage Point Way, a planned collector street in the TMISAP. In accordance with UDC 11-3A-3 (Access to streets),multiple accesses off an arterial and/or collector roadway shall be restricted The Applicant has proposed an emergency access only off of Black Cat Road and has included a stub street to the north(Street H)for potential future access. Staff recommends that the Applicant collaborates with the property owner to the east to consider incorporating a potential stub street on the east side of this site for connectivity to the future Medium-High Density Residential Development,subject to approval by ACHD. Common Driveway(UDC 11-6C-3D): Six(6)common driveways are proposed within the development of the site on Lot 42,Block 1, Lot 16,Block 1,Lot 41,Block 2,Lot 33,Block 2,Lot 16, Block,2,and Lot 23,Block 5. Common driveways are allowed to serve a maximum of four(4) dwelling units; in no case shall more than three(3)dwelling units be located on one(1) side of the driveway. A total of four(4) dwelling units are proposed on the south side of driveway for Lot 23,Block 5; the final plat and common driveway exhibit shall be revised to depict a maximum of three(3)units on one(1) side of the driveway as required; or, alternative compliance may be requested as set forth in UDC 11-5B-5. A perpetual ingress/egress easement is required to be filed with the Ada County Recorder for the common driveway,which shall include a requirement for maintenance of a paved surface capable of supporting fire vehicles and equipment. This may be accomplished through the depiction of the easement on the face of the final plat and an accompanying note.If a separate easement is recorded,a copy should be submitted to the Planning Division with the final plat for City Engineer signature. Page 13 Alleys (UDC 11-6C-3B.5): Two(2)40-foot wide alleys are proposed for access to the single-family detached dwelling units on lots in Block 3 and Block 4. The Alley should be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3B.5.A detail of the alley should be submitted with the final plat that demonstrates compliance with these standards. Parking: All single-family attached and detached dwelling units are proposed to have a 2-car garage with a 2-space parking pad consistent with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for 1-to 4-bedroom units; if any units contain more than 4 bedrooms, an additional two (2) spaces are required with at least one(1)of those being an enclosed space. An additional 150 on-street parking spaces (0.5+per home) are available for residents and guests as shown on the parking exhibit in Section VIII.I. These spaces are located adjacent to common areas and in front of the detached dwelling units and attached dwelling units. Staff finds that there is not adequate room in front of the attached units for on-street parking with the width of the lots vs.the driveways.With the narrow 27-foot wide streets proposed internally,which are desired with the TMISAP,parking is only allowed on one side of the street. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A 25-foot wide street buffer is required is required along all arterial streets (i.e. S. Black Cat Road)in residential districts. A 20-foot wide street buffer is required along all collector streets(i.e. Vantage Point Way) a collector street,per UDC Table 11-2D-7, landscaped per the updated standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. The proposed buffer along the southern half of Black Cat Road appears to be 20-feet in width and should be 25-feet in width. The 20-foot wide buffer along the new collector street(Vanguard Way) appears to meet the requirements of the UDC code; however,there is a lack of a combination of planters (shrubs and rock mulch)within both of the buffers(refer to the figures below). FIGURE 1 i An 8-foot wide parkway with Class 11 trees is required along all local streets per UDC Table 11-2D-6, landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. Page 14 All common open space areas are required to be landscaped with one deciduous shade tree for every 5,000 square feet of area and include a variety of trees, shrubs, lawn or other vegetative groundcover per UDC 11-3G-5B.3. The landscape plan appears to comply with this requirement. There are several existing trees on the south side of this this site that will be removed with development. An existing tree inventory and mitigation plan is not included in Section VIII.H. Mitigation is required to be provided per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-10C.S; calculations demonstrating compliance should be included on the landscape plan submitted with the final plat application. Landscaping is required along all pathways per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-12C. Common Open Space(UDC 11-3G-3): A minimum of 15%qualified open space is required to be provided within the single-family development per Table 11-3G-3 for the R-15 zoning district. Based on 33.707-acres of land,a minimum of 5.06 acres is required to be provided that complies with the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3B. The exhibit included in Section VIII.F depicts 19.8%(or 6.68 acres) of common open space for the single-family(detached and attached dwelling units)development consisting of one(1)large common area over 5,000 square feet(s.£) at 60,785 (s.£),a micro-path that runs along the entire east side of the site; 8-foot wide landscaped parkways along the residential lots; and 10-foot wide pathways running along S. Black Cat Road and the new collector(vantage Point Way). The collector street buffers do not count toward qualified open space unless they meet the enhanced buffer requirements noted in UDC 11-3G-3B.3,which is interpreted to mean buffer landscape materials consistent with entryway corridors listed in UDC 11-3B-7C.3f. Additionally,per UDC 11-3G-3B.3, one hundred (100) percent of the landscape buffer along collector streets and fifty(50) percent of the landscape buffer along arterial streets that meet the enhanced buffer requirements that follow may count toward the required common open space. In order to qualify,common areas should be landscaped per the updated standards listed in UDC 11-3G-4B.3; parkways and street buffers should be landscaped per the standards listed in UDC H- 3A-17E and 11-3B-7C[collector buffers must meet the enhanced buffer requirements(i.e. entryway corridor standards)in order to qualify]; stormwater swales that are incorporated into required landscaped areas should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-11C, and linear open space should be landscaped per the requirements in UDC 11-3B. Site Amenities(UDC 11-3G-4): A minimum of seven(7)points of site amenities are required based on the area of the single-family residential development. Qualified amenities should include features listed in UDC Table 11-3G-4. A 5,000+ s.£ children's playground with a play structure, swings, climbing rocks, a climbing dome, seating benches,within a safe fenced area,two pickle ball courts, a pool house with changing facilities and restrooms, and a fenced dog park(15 points) is proposed which meets the minimum standard. The provision of public art, as recommended,will also qualify as an amenity(1 point). The 10-foot wide regional pathways along Black Cat Road and Vanguard Way consist of approximately 2,500 linear feet. Additionally,the 5-foot micro-pathway running north and south on the east side of the property spans approximately 1,000 linear feet. Combined,the proposed pathways total(4 points). Required sidewalks adjacent to public right-of-way do not qualify. Overall, the proposed amenities exceed the minimum standards. Pathways: The Pathways Master Plan depicts multi-use pathways on this site along S. Black Cat Road and Vantage Point Way. The pathways shall be constructed in accordance with UDC 11-3A-8 and 1I- 3B-12. A 14-foot wide public use easement for all multi-use pathways shall be submitted to the Planning Division prior to submittal for City Engineer's signature on the final plat(s). Sidewalks (11-3A-17): A 5-foot wide detached sidewalks are required along local streets within the development along with 8-foot parkways consistent with ACHD and the TMISAP. The plans appear Page 15 to comply with this requirement. Additionally,the common driveway located at the southwest corner of the development should incorporate a sidewalk adjacent to the 5-foot landscape buffer connecting to the 10-foot wide pathway along S.Black Cat Road to enhance walkability within the neighborhood. Fencing 11( 3A-D: Fencing should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. Six-foot tall solid vinyl fencing is proposed around the west,north, east, and south perimeter boundaries of the subdivision and on shared lot lines between building and common lots that are visible from the public street,as shown on the landscape plan. A 5' tall open vision iron fence is proposed around the children's playground area,pool,and dog park. A black chain link fence is proposed around the pickleball courts as shown on the picture in the narrative. All proposed fencing on the landscape plan appears to comply with the UDC. Lighting(UDC 11-3A-11): All proposed lighting shall meet the standards set forth in this title. Waterways: The Marvin Lateral courses along the north and east boundaries of this site. Nampa Meridian Irrigations District's easement for the Marvin Lateral at this location is a minimum of thirty- five feet(35')total,ten feet(10)left and twenty-five feet(25')right facing downs stream. The Applicant is working with the irrigation district to obtain a license agreement. Per UDC 11-3A-6,the irrigation lateral intersecting, crossing or lying within the area being developed, shall be piped, or otherwise covered. Utilities(UDC 11-3A-21): Connection to City water and sewer services is required in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. Street lighting is required to be installed in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Pressurized Irrigation System (UDC 11-3A-15): Underground pressurized irrigation water is required to be provided to each lot within the subdivision as set forth in UDC 11-3A-15. Storm Drainage(UDC 11-3A-18):An adequate storm drainage system is required in all developments in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances.Design and construction shall follow best management practice as adopted by the City as set forth in UDC 11-3A-18. A geotechnical report was submitted with this subdivision. Building Elevations: Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed structures within the development as shown in Section VIII.J. Six(6) elevations were submitted for the 1-story and 2- story attached and detached dwelling units. Building materials consist of mix of board&batten siding, horizontal lap siding with fiber cement panel accents,limited shake, and some stone. An elevation was not submitted for the pool changing rooms/bathrooms. The proposed elevations are not approved and should be revised to incorporate traditional neighborhood design elements as set forth in the TMISAP,as noted above in Section V,and in the Architectural Standards Manual(ASM). Certificate of Zoning Compliance Review: A CZC application(s)is required to be submitted for the for the pool changing rooms/bathrooms building within the development.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS LAND USE: This property is designated Medium High-Density Residential(MHDR)on the Future Land Use Map(FLUM)and is located within the area known as the Ten Mile Specific Area Plan(TMISAP). MHDR areas are recommended to develop primarily with relatively dense multi-family housing types, such as row houses,townhouses, condominiums, and apartments,not all single-family attached and detached homes as proposed by the applicant. These areas should have a mix of housing types that achieve an overall average density target of 12 dwelling units per acre with densities ranging from 8-15 units per acre.MHDR areas typically are relatively compact areas within a larger neighborhood and generally should be located around and near more intensely developed areas, such as Mixed Use Commercial or Employment areas,in order to provide convenient access to these commercial activity and employment centers for the greatest number of residents. As noted above,the proposed development incorporates a mix of single-family attached(95)and single- family detached(161)homes,resulting in an overall gross density of 7.59 units per acre inconsistent with the target density desired in the MHDR FLUM designation in the TMISAP. Townhomes should be included in this development to be more consistent with the plan;however,the property to the east has approval to construct a 552-unit multi-family development to offset the need for additional multi-family in the area. Mixed—Employment areas are also entitled or in the development process to the west, south, and southeast so it is conceivable that this development may provide additional housing options for these employment areas. TRANSPORTATION: ACHD's Master Street Map(MSM)depicts a new town center collector street across the southern portion of this property from the west to the east boundary eventually connecting to S. Ten Mile Road. The Transportation System Map in the TMISAP lists the functional classification for this street as a collector street and the Street Section Map lists the design classification as a major collector street,which is intended to be constructed consistent with Street Section C as follows: Page 6 1 1d' 9 B' 6' 1 r l r fi' ' d' tfte si e Lane 24' Lane 7 Cur�-n.cA dfslance This street is planned to eventually provide a connection from S. Black Cat Road to S. Ten Mile Road. The applicant is currently collaborating with the property owners directly to the south and east to complete the Collector Street(Vanguard Way)connection to Black Cat. It is the City's desire to have this street dedicated and constructed before residents occupy the homes in this development. Local streets,alleys, and common drives are proposed internally for access to the proposed residential units. Staff believes the plat should incorporate more alley-loaded lots however,the Applicant believes there isn't a market for this type of housing and has elected to limit the number of alley-loaded homes to ten (10)which is inconsistent with the Plan. BACKGROUND: Ten Mile Interchange Area was intended to look, feel, and function differently than a typical residential subdivision. It operates as a form-based specific area plan,where the design of the built environment is the primary review element and intended to work in conjunction with the land use and zoning designations. These design elements should not be treated as a checklist;but used to implement the overall vision and support traditional neighborhood design desired by the Plan. DESIGN ELEMENT: The design element is intended to serve as the basic framework for a project within the Ten Mile Interchange Area and the basis for the development of future design guidelines. They are considered the most important elements to"get right,"there is not flexibility allowed in the modification of design elements. Future development should be consistent with the design elements in the TMISAP for the MHDR FLUM designation as determined by the Application of the Design Elements table(refer to the table below). Staff s analysis for how the Applicant's design adheres to the applicable design elements are italized below. NOTE:Some of these design elements are not required by the UDC as envisioned by the Plan. Therefore, the applicant requests the Commission and Council allow some deviations to these design elements. Page 7 Page .

Street-oriented Design: Useable porches should be a dominant element of residential buildings and should be located along at least 30%of the front facade of the buildings—a higher percentage is recommended as is the location of porches on one or more side facades. When possible, garages should be Page 8 loaded from a rear alleyway. Where garages must be accessed from the front,the garages must be located no less than 20' behind the primary fagade. Front-loaded 2-car garages that are visible from the primary street must be designed with two(2) separate garage doors. Out of the 256 single-family units, only 10 are alley-loaded; the others are all front-loaded with living area either at the same plane or behind the garages away from the street. A few of the units have usable porches that might meet the guidelines. No porches are proposed on the side facades. All units have single 2-car garage doors, not separate doors. 3-34.Buildings to Scale: Everything seen and experienced from the sidewalk—building fronts,lighting, open space—should be designed for human interaction at a pedestrian's perspective.Key elements to consider are the continuity of the building sizes,how the street-level and upper-level architectural detailing is treated, elements that anchor and emphasize pedestrian scale,roof forms,rhythm of windows and doors, and general relationship of buildings to public spaces such as streets,plazas and other open space. Human- scale design is critical to the success of built places for pedestrians. Building entrances should be placed close to the street; ground floor windows,articulated facades, appropriately scaled lighting, awnings and other weather protection should be provided. The proposed elevations do not meet the design criteria that encourage building entrances to be situated close to the street,primarily due to their garage-dominated nature. Elevations for the alley-loaded units were not submitted with the application, making it difficult for Staff to determine if they comply with these guidelines. Lighting at a pedestrian scale should be provided on the buildings facing the street and internal walkways. A different product type should be provided for the detached and attached units with garages behind the units, and building entrances facing the street with front/side porches. 3-36.Neighborhood Design: All residential neighborhoods in the Ten Mile interchange area should be developed in consideration of traditional neighborhood design principles and concepts,which pertain to mixed housing stock, architecture and design, streetscapes and streets.Front porches and garages accessed from an alley are usually the standard in residential areas;parking for homes is primarily located behind buildings. Streetscape design relates to the street itself and consists of landscaped parkways with trees between curbs and sidewalks, adjacent sidewalks and front yard spaces and provides public space for street trees, street furniture and view corridors. Other aspects of neighborhood design that contribute to a traditional streetscape are connected network of streets, alleys and sidewalks. Roadways and pedestrian ways are interconnected so that access for pedestrians, cyclists and automobile drivers is direct and convenient and allows traffic to be dispersed through a variety of streets and ways.Narrower streets designed with TND characteristics result in slower moving traffic and provide a safer,more pleasant pedestrian environment and encourages interaction among residents. As previously noted, usable porches that meet the minimum guidelines are not provided for the single-family attached and detached units as desired. Alley-accessed garages and parking are only provided for the 10 detached units; the other 246 single-family units are all accessed from the street with parking in front of the garages facing the street, which is not desired. Shorter block lengths and narrower streets help build a greater sense of community. As proposed, these lots are narrow and garage dominated which creates more driveways and less tree-lined streets along the primary streets which is contradictory to TND principles. More alley-loaded homes would enchance the streetscape for this development and ground the front porches to the primary street per the Plan. 3-37.Building Form& Character: Building Facades—Buildings should be designed so that their primary facades relate to active public spaces and pedestrian areas. The primary fagade of a structure is that frontage of the building that has been designed and detailed so as to represent the building's most important elevations. The primary fagade should always include an entry into the building. Entries should be located so as to provide direct access from adjacent public spaces,primary streets and activity areas. Access from walkways should be uninterrupted by vehicular traffic. Buildings should be located so as to help frame Page 9 adjacent public spaces and to provide an architectural backdrop for associated passive and active activities. The space between a building fagade and the adjacent walkway should be appropriately landscaped with a combination of lawns, groundcover, shrubs and trees. Access from walkways to the main living areas is only uninterrupted by vehicular traffic for 10 alley-loaded units, as these units have garages accessed from the alleys. The other single-family attached and detached structures are not designed to have the primary fagade relate to active pedestrian areas,public spaces, or primary streets due to the orientation of the garages and building entries. Building entries are not the focal point of the homes and the front-loaded garages limit direct pedestrian access from the street because most of the entries are located behind the garages. As noted above, the 8 foot parkways are also diminished due to this design. Building Heights: Low-rise buildings of 2-4 stories over much of the area is recommended. A mix of one-story single-family and two-story single-family attached and detached structures are proposed in general conformance to this guideline. This applicant's preference is to have single-story homes along collector and arterial streets to enhance the streetscape. • Pitched Roofs: A mix of flat and pitched roofs are anticipated in the Ten Mile area based on a wide variety of individual buildings. Pitched roofs should be,where possible, symmetrical hips or gables,with a pitch between 4:12 and 12:12 with an overhang of at least 12 inches and a maximum of 2.5'. Roof brackets and rafter tail treatments are encouraged. All of the roofpitches proposed fall within the desired pitch range. Corbels are depicted some of the concept elevations; rafter tail treatments are encouraged as well as other design elements as noted in the ASM. Staff cannot verb if there is at least 12 inches of overhang for all of the one-story and two- story homes proposed. 3-47.Public Art: Public art should be incorporated into the design of streetscapes,public buildings,parks, transit,infrastructure,and other public projects in the Ten Mile area. Public art should be meaningful and encourage the free flow of ideas and cultural ideologies. Public art should be integrated into either the architectural design or the design of plazas and public spaces associated with a building and should be easily visible to the public (e.g.visible from the street or publicly accessible open spaces rather than interior courtyards). Public art is not proposed but could be provided in accord with this guideline. If the applicant desires to include public art as part of the development it would qualify as another amenity(I point). Goals,Objectives, &Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property;however,the TMISAP takes precedence over the Comprehensive plan(staff analysis in italics): • "With new subdivision plat,require the design and construction of pathways connections,easy pedestrian and bicycle access to parks, safe routes to schools, and incorporation of usable open space with quality amenities."(2.02.01A) The Applicant is proposing to construct 10 foot wide multi-use pathways along S. Black Cat Road and Vanguard Way(new collector)in accordance with the Meridian Pathways Master Plan Map.Additionally, a 5-foot wide micro path is proposed on the east side of the site, extending in a north-south direction. The following amenities are proposed.• community pool and changing rooms,fenced play structure, swing set, seating benches, climbing dome, climbing rocks,fenced dog park, and two(2)pickleball courts, exceeding the requirements outlined in UDC 11-3G-4. Page 10 • "Require all new residential neighborhoods to provide complete streets,consistent with the Transportation and Land Use Integration Plan."(2.02.01C) The plat illustrates that all internal local streets within this development are depicted as 27 foot wide street sections with curbs and gutters, allowing parking on only one side. "No Parking"signs shall be installed on that designated side of the street. The smaller street sections are encouraged in the TMISAP to promote pedestrian movement and access by enhancing connectivity and promoting walking. • "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote neighborhood connectivity."(2.02.01D) The proposed 10 foot wide pathways and 5-foot wide micro path provide connectivity to the Mixed Employment developments proposed to the south, the proposed multi family development(Vanguard Village) to the east, and the future medium-high density development to the north. • "Continue to develop and implement the desired vision in special areas, areas with specific plans, and along key transportation corridors."(3.03.01A) The TMISAP is a form-based specific area plan where the design of the built environment is the primary review element. The City's vision for this area is for all residential to have a Traditional Neighborhood Design.Front porches and alley-loaded garages are the standard and help to create a pedestrian friendly environment. Streetscapes should relate to the street itself and landscaping with trees between curbs and sidewalks, the adjacent,front yard spaces, and the building frontages. Staff finds that the proposed plat, landscape, and elevations do not align with the City's vision for this area. • "Annex lands into the corporate boundaries of the City only when the annexation proposal conforms to the City's vision and the necessary extension of public services and infrastructure is provided."(3.03.03) The Applicant's design does not align with the Plan; therefore, stafffinds it is not in the City's best interest to annex this property. • "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval, and in accord with any adopted levels of service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F) City water and sewer service is available and can be extended by the developer with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. • "Ensure that new development and subdivisions connect to the pathway system." (4.04.01A) The proposed subdivision proposes a 10 foot wide pathway along S. Black Cat Road and Vantage Point Way(new collector) in accordance with the Meridian Pathways Master Plan Map, thereby enhancing connectivity to future developments. • "Assess and compare response times to adopted standards for identification of additional needed resources."(4.11.0113) This project currently falls in an area where emergency personnel don't have response times that meet NFPA 1710 standards or the current City of Meridian adopted standards. The first due station is Fire Station 2. This fire station is approximately 2.8 miles from the project. • "Foster a walkable and bikeable community through good site and street design."(5.01.01A) The pathways and sidewalks within the development contribute to creating a walkable community. However; the proposed narrower street sections should coincide with shorter block lengths or traffic calming to provide a more compact, diverse, and walkable neighborhood as envisioned by the plan. Page 11 ACHD is also requiring shorter block lengths or passive traffic calming. • `Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and the extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City of Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development."(3.03.03A) The proposed development will connect to City water and sewer systems with development of the subdivision;services are required to be provided to and through this development in accordance with current City plans. • "Encourage the integration of public art as an integrated component with new development". (5.03.01B) Public art is not proposed with this development as emphasized by the TMISAP. Public Art should be included as a fundamental element in new development projects within the TMISAP. This policy suggests a commitment to fostering a visually enriched and culturally vibrant environment by actively encouraging the inclusion of artistic elements as an integral part of the overall development strategy. Public art could be displayed either at the entrance to the subdivision and/or within the large central park proposed in the development. VI. STAFF ANALYSIS A. ANNEXATION(AZ) The Applicant proposes to annex 35.214 acres of land with an R-15 (Medium-High Density Residential) zoning district which is listed in the Zoning District Compatibility Matrix in the TMISAP as one of the best choices for zoning in the MHDR designation. A preliminary plat and conceptual building elevations were submitted, included in Section VIII, showing how the property is proposed to be subdivided into 256 building lots and 25 common lots for the development of 10 single-family detached alley-loaded dwellings, 95 single-family attached dwellings& 151 single-family detached dwellings. The proposed residential use and mix of housing types may be consistent with the MHDR FLUM designation; however,the proposed density of 7.59 is below the target density of 12 dwelling units per acre. The proposed architectural design does not comply with the TND guidelines in the TMISAP, as discussed above.Development in this area should conform to these guidelines in order to be deemed consistent with the Plan and determine if it is in the City's best interest to annex this property. This property, is surrounded by an existing light industrial development to the west(Black Cat Industrial future residential uses to the north, future multi-family development to the east(Vanguard Village), a future R-15 development to the north(extension of Baraya), and mixed employment(M-E)proposed to the south. A legal description and exhibit map for the boundary of the property proposed to be annexed is included in Section VIII.A. This property is within the City's Area of City Impact boundary and within the area governed by the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan(TMISAP), as discussed above in Section V. The City may require a development agreement(DA) in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. A DA is not necessary based on staff s recommendation of denial. B. PRELIMINARY PLAT(PP): A preliminary plat is proposed consisting of 256 [95 single-family attached, 10 alley-loaded, and 151 single-family detached units] building lots and 25 landscape, six(6) common driveways,two (2)alleys, and one(1)non-buildable lot on 33.707-acres of land in the R-15 district. Proposed lots range in size Page 12 from 2,436 to 5,357 square feet(s.f.)with an average lot size of 3,584(sf.)The subdivision is proposed to develop in three(3)phases as shown on the preliminary plat in Section VIII.C. Single-family attached and detached dwellings are listed as a principal permitted use in the R-15 zoning district per UDC Table 11-2D-2. The proposed plat appears to comply with the R-1 S zoning standards. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures on the property that are proposed to be removed upon development. Dimensional Standards(UDC Table 11-2D-6): The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the R-15 zoning district. There is a 2,000 minimum lot size in the R-15 district; each building site is required to be of sufficient size to meet the minimum setbacks for the district. Access: Access is proposed via the extension of Vantage Point Way, a new collector street, along the southern boundary of the subdivision. Vantage Point Way will extend to the west boundary across Black Cat Road to be extended with the Black Cat Industrial Development(H-2021-0064). Vantage Point Way should be constructed in accordance with Street Section C(major collector street)in the TMISAP,which requires(2) 11-foot travel lanes, 6-foot bike lanes, 8-foot parkways with streetlights at a pedestrian scale, and minimum 6-foot wide detached sidewalks (see pg. 3-20, 3-22, 3-23). The Applicant proposes a modification of the street section to include 10-foot wide detached sidewalks/pathways in lieu of on-street bike lanes,which is required by ACHD and as set forth in the Meridian Master Pathways Plan. All streets should be constructed as complete streets as defined in the TMISAP (see pg.3-19 &3- 20). Prior to submitting the final plat,the Applicant shall coordinate with the property owner to the south and east to construct Vantage Point Way and deed the right-of-way to ACHD. The Applicant should ensure that the intersection of Vantage Point Way and S.Black Road aligns with the entrance of the Black Cat Industrial projects on the west side of S.Black Cat Road. The Applicant is proposing one(1) curb cut-off of Vantage Point Way, a planned collector street in the TMISAP. In accordance with UDC 11-3A-3 (Access to streets),multiple accesses off an arterial and/or collector roadway shall be restricted The Applicant has proposed an emergency access only off of Black Cat Road and has included a stub street to the north(Street H)for potential future access. Staff recommends that the Applicant collaborates with the property owner to the east to consider incorporating a potential stub street on the east side of this site for connectivity to the future Medium-High Density Residential Development,subject to approval by ACHD. Common Driveway(UDC 11-6C-3D): Six(6)common driveways are proposed within the development of the site on Lot 42,Block 1, Lot 16,Block 1,Lot 41,Block 2,Lot 33,Block 2,Lot 16, Block,2,and Lot 23,Block 5. Common driveways are allowed to serve a maximum of four(4) dwelling units; in no case shall more than three(3)dwelling units be located on one(1) side of the driveway. A total of four(4) dwelling units are proposed on the south side of driveway for Lot 23,Block 5; the final plat and common driveway exhibit shall be revised to depict a maximum of three(3)units on one(1) side of the driveway as required; or, alternative compliance may be requested as set forth in UDC 11-5B-5. A perpetual ingress/egress easement is required to be filed with the Ada County Recorder for the common driveway,which shall include a requirement for maintenance of a paved surface capable of supporting fire vehicles and equipment. This may be accomplished through the depiction of the easement on the face of the final plat and an accompanying note.If a separate easement is recorded,a copy should be submitted to the Planning Division with the final plat for City Engineer signature. Page 13 Alleys (UDC 11-6C-3B.5): Two(2)40-foot wide alleys are proposed for access to the single-family detached dwelling units on lots in Block 3 and Block 4. The Alley should be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3B.5.A detail of the alley should be submitted with the final plat that demonstrates compliance with these standards. Parking: All single-family attached and detached dwelling units are proposed to have a 2-car garage with a 2-space parking pad consistent with UDC Table 11-3C-6 for 1-to 4-bedroom units; if any units contain more than 4 bedrooms, an additional two (2) spaces are required with at least one(1)of those being an enclosed space. An additional 150 on-street parking spaces (0.5+per home) are available for residents and guests as shown on the parking exhibit in Section VIII.I. These spaces are located adjacent to common areas and in front of the detached dwelling units and attached dwelling units. Staff finds that there is not adequate room in front of the attached units for on-street parking with the width of the lots vs.the driveways.With the narrow 27-foot wide streets proposed internally,which are desired with the TMISAP,parking is only allowed on one side of the street. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A 25-foot wide street buffer is required is required along all arterial streets (i.e. S. Black Cat Road)in residential districts. A 20-foot wide street buffer is required along all collector streets(i.e. Vantage Point Way) a collector street,per UDC Table 11-2D-7, landscaped per the updated standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. The proposed buffer along the southern half of Black Cat Road appears to be 20-feet in width and should be 25-feet in width. The 20-foot wide buffer along the new collector street(Vanguard Way) appears to meet the requirements of the UDC code; however,there is a lack of a combination of planters (shrubs and rock mulch)within both of the buffers(refer to the figures below). FIGURE 1 i An 8-foot wide parkway with Class 11 trees is required along all local streets per UDC Table 11-2D-6, landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. Page 14 All common open space areas are required to be landscaped with one deciduous shade tree for every 5,000 square feet of area and include a variety of trees, shrubs, lawn or other vegetative groundcover per UDC 11-3G-5B.3. The landscape plan appears to comply with this requirement. There are several existing trees on the south side of this this site that will be removed with development. An existing tree inventory and mitigation plan is not included in Section VIII.H. Mitigation is required to be provided per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-10C.S; calculations demonstrating compliance should be included on the landscape plan submitted with the final plat application. Landscaping is required along all pathways per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-12C. Common Open Space(UDC 11-3G-3): A minimum of 15%qualified open space is required to be provided within the single-family development per Table 11-3G-3 for the R-15 zoning district. Based on 33.707-acres of land,a minimum of 5.06 acres is required to be provided that complies with the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3B. The exhibit included in Section VIII.F depicts 19.8%(or 6.68 acres) of common open space for the single-family(detached and attached dwelling units)development consisting of one(1)large common area over 5,000 square feet(s.£) at 60,785 (s.£),a micro-path that runs along the entire east side of the site; 8-foot wide landscaped parkways along the residential lots; and 10-foot wide pathways running along S. Black Cat Road and the new collector(vantage Point Way). The collector street buffers do not count toward qualified open space unless they meet the enhanced buffer requirements noted in UDC 11-3G-3B.3,which is interpreted to mean buffer landscape materials consistent with entryway corridors listed in UDC 11-3B-7C.3f. Additionally,per UDC 11-3G-3B.3, one hundred (100) percent of the landscape buffer along collector streets and fifty(50) percent of the landscape buffer along arterial streets that meet the enhanced buffer requirements that follow may count toward the required common open space. In order to qualify,common areas should be landscaped per the updated standards listed in UDC 11-3G-4B.3; parkways and street buffers should be landscaped per the standards listed in UDC H- 3A-17E and 11-3B-7C[collector buffers must meet the enhanced buffer requirements(i.e. entryway corridor standards)in order to qualify]; stormwater swales that are incorporated into required landscaped areas should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-11C, and linear open space should be landscaped per the requirements in UDC 11-3B. Site Amenities(UDC 11-3G-4): A minimum of seven(7)points of site amenities are required based on the area of the single-family residential development. Qualified amenities should include features listed in UDC Table 11-3G-4. A 5,000+ s.£ children's playground with a play structure, swings, climbing rocks, a climbing dome, seating benches,within a safe fenced area,two pickle ball courts, a pool house with changing facilities and restrooms, and a fenced dog park(15 points) is proposed which meets the minimum standard. The provision of public art, as recommended,will also qualify as an amenity(1 point). The 10-foot wide regional pathways along Black Cat Road and Vanguard Way consist of approximately 2,500 linear feet. Additionally,the 5-foot micro-pathway running north and south on the east side of the property spans approximately 1,000 linear feet. Combined,the proposed pathways total(4 points). Required sidewalks adjacent to public right-of-way do not qualify. Overall, the proposed amenities exceed the minimum standards. Pathways: The Pathways Master Plan depicts multi-use pathways on this site along S. Black Cat Road and Vantage Point Way. The pathways shall be constructed in accordance with UDC 11-3A-8 and 1I- 3B-12. A 14-foot wide public use easement for all multi-use pathways shall be submitted to the Planning Division prior to submittal for City Engineer's signature on the final plat(s). Sidewalks (11-3A-17): A 5-foot wide detached sidewalks are required along local streets within the development along with 8-foot parkways consistent with ACHD and the TMISAP. The plans appear Page 15 to comply with this requirement. Additionally,the common driveway located at the southwest corner of the development should incorporate a sidewalk adjacent to the 5-foot landscape buffer connecting to the 10-foot wide pathway along S.Black Cat Road to enhance walkability within the neighborhood. Fencing 11( 3A-D: Fencing should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. Six-foot tall solid vinyl fencing is proposed around the west,north, east, and south perimeter boundaries of the subdivision and on shared lot lines between building and common lots that are visible from the public street,as shown on the landscape plan. A 5' tall open vision iron fence is proposed around the children's playground area,pool,and dog park. A black chain link fence is proposed around the pickleball courts as shown on the picture in the narrative. All proposed fencing on the landscape plan appears to comply with the UDC. Lighting(UDC 11-3A-11): All proposed lighting shall meet the standards set forth in this title. Waterways: The Marvin Lateral courses along the north and east boundaries of this site. Nampa Meridian Irrigations District's easement for the Marvin Lateral at this location is a minimum of thirty- five feet(35')total,ten feet(10)left and twenty-five feet(25')right facing downs stream. The Applicant is working with the irrigation district to obtain a license agreement. Per UDC 11-3A-6,the irrigation lateral intersecting, crossing or lying within the area being developed, shall be piped, or otherwise covered. Utilities(UDC 11-3A-21): Connection to City water and sewer services is required in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. Street lighting is required to be installed in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Pressurized Irrigation System (UDC 11-3A-15): Underground pressurized irrigation water is required to be provided to each lot within the subdivision as set forth in UDC 11-3A-15. Storm Drainage(UDC 11-3A-18):An adequate storm drainage system is required in all developments in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances.Design and construction shall follow best management practice as adopted by the City as set forth in UDC 11-3A-18. A geotechnical report was submitted with this subdivision. Building Elevations: Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the proposed structures within the development as shown in Section VIII.J. Six(6) elevations were submitted for the 1-story and 2- story attached and detached dwelling units. Building materials consist of mix of board&batten siding, horizontal lap siding with fiber cement panel accents,limited shake, and some stone. An elevation was not submitted for the pool changing rooms/bathrooms. The proposed elevations are not approved and should be revised to incorporate traditional neighborhood design elements as set forth in the TMISAP,as noted above in Section V,and in the Architectural Standards Manual(ASM). Certificate of Zoning Compliance Review: A CZC application(s)is required to be submitted for the for the pool changing rooms/bathrooms building within the development. Design Review: A design review application(s)is required to be submitted for all single-family attached structures within the development. Final design of all structures should comply with the standards for single-family residential design listed in the Architectural Standards Manual(ASM) and the traditional neighborhood design guidelines in the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan (TMISAP)for the MHDR FLUM designation(see the Application of Design Elements table on pg. 3-49).
