I will be out of town and unable to attend. I have asked my church secretary, Nancy Gallivan, to attend the meeting. Since I am unsure whether she can attend or not, I have asked Lisa to present this letter to you. Vickie Welker contacted me early last surmner about the Valerie Heights development and a proposed temporary sidewalk. She told me that ACHD would not be involved in the planned sidewalk. She also stated that it would probably be a temporary blacktop path that would not encroach upon our current property. I told her I would consider this, but that all decisions must come through our Board of Trustees. I told her I would discuss it with them and that she could come and present it to them. I called her later to ask her how the neighborhood meeting went but did not receive a retunl phone call. ~, I am not sure how my conversation ~ith Vickie has been represented to the City Council, but I want to m~e my"polsition clear ~th this letter. I cannot make any such decisions without the authority of my Board of Trustees. We have not met on this rpatter and Vickie has not presented her request to ~ them. It is doubtful tJ;lat they would support this at the current time until it is ACHD's requirement, based on the need of increased traffic. ~ ~ ~...'i! ,'4!.}, ~ Roy Faletti Pastor Il~ ,:. ~ J{ome of Stoneliouse Christian ScFioo{ El ~em6ers: Jtl-ican }lssociation of Cfin"stian ScfiooCs II '!:!}. ~ ~ III ~ ~~ "!!JtIt )fsso~ tion of Cliristitln ScfwoCs I ntHnatiorut{ !;t .:- :... -c September 27, 2000 ~ Chelsea Ghasserani 2638 W. Wave Ct. Meridian, ill 83642 Ms. Ghasserani, I received your letter today; there is one thing on which we both agree, to work to continue to make Meridian a great place to live. I appreciate your concern for our children. I, too, care for the children !Qat walk to S&hool daily. The developers made a promise to the neighbors that they would build a sidewalk from Pine to Cherry Lane; we will hold them to that. The condition that was placed on the preliminary plat was that the traffic light, the road improvements and the sidewalks would be installed prior to any struct1m1l building permits. There was no alternative to this condition; bonding is not an option. If the develo~r is not able to work things out between ACHD and the landowners to construct the sidewalk, the project will not be able to proceed. That was the intent of my conditio~ among several other conditions, aad will be reflected in the legal findings. As for road development, this has been a concern of mine as well. Prior to City Council I involved myselfwith finding traffic solutions working on a Chamber of Commerce traffic committee, as well as, a grant project supported by the Treasure Valley Futures project and 'Smart Growth.' On City Council, we have supported alternative transportation programs through 'park and ride' locations and bus transit. I currently serve.on the Community Planning Association tWit focuses on regional traffic issues. Meriaian has worked long and hard to get road projects on ACHD's five-year pian for road improvements. We ~de great progress this year, but continued lobbyina is needed to keep our projects a priority. This is a role you and your sroup can be instrumental in, in partnership with the City and local business leaders. ~ Umortunately, our City's impact fees have been the sole supporter of paying for road improvements in Meridian. Does this mean without collecting these impact fees that roads will not be improved in our community? Yes, that is exactly the reality we are facing. Four of YOur neiahbors attended the August ACHD meeting on Valeri Heights. Their stated concerns, and items worked out with the developer, were met by appropriate conditi9DS for this project by ACHD; and as tlte local road autOOrity, Commissioners agreed to those conditions. ::!. The location for this development was identified and planned for through a specific process. ~eridian has a pian for Ifowth as required by state law, referred to as the 'Comprehensive Plan.' The Comprehensive Plan is developed through a democratic process where City staff; community leaders, local businesses and citizens participate to develop a "blueprint" for future growth. This plan provided for the decisions that built your subdivision, and that same pian provided for the Valeri Heights proposal. ;:a ~ :9?: .,~;. !.~: ~. ~,~ ~ October 2, 2000 Mr. Bill Nichols, Attorney for the City ofMeridiag. Tammy DeWeerd and Members of City Council; t! r:t : -;j : The findings of fact and conclusions of law for the Valeri Heights approval of annexation, rezone, preliminary plat and conditional use permit will be on the agenda for Tuesday, October 3, 2000. It ~as my desir~ to ask for reconsiqeration of the condition that requires the reductiog. of the two most~northerly buildings to two-story, and therefore a reduction of eight units from the project. We prepared the attached computer drawings done in 3-D to show that.~ reduction in grading height~would accomplish what we believed was intended by this conditiotL-:. This subject,had been discussed at length with the neighbors~ The consensus of the neighbors was fot~the requction in h~ight by grading. The neighbors ~ the desire for the design integrity of the project to remain consistent and that all buildings look similar. We did not know that this item would CO~ up after the hearing was closed and could not be discussed or explained in length if it was a problem. If there was a need in the mind of City Council to make the closest building: two story, it is still unclear why the need for a reduction in units when they could easily be moved to the inside third story of other buildings witliout ab. affect on the neighbors. I have been informed that this item cannot be reconsidered without the requirement of an additional public hearing so I am not going to ask for that reconsideration. I attended the party for Skip ::V oss on Friday afternoon after I ~e that:.decision and informed planning ~ zoning. staff of it. When I r~ed home, I received a phone call :from a neighbor in the area of the project. .~He bad also attended the party and had a discussion with Tammy DeWeerd and Shari StiJes about this condition. There se~ms to be some confusion as to what was intended. If you look at the minutes you will JJ.ote the confusion also. As I understand q:.Tammy told this neighbor ~t it was her intention to drop only one building to two stories. Shari Stiles believes that it was the discussion she had with my engineer during the vote and the mention of eight units that caused the vote to end the way ijt did. Eight units would mean two :~ buildings and therefore the problem. Apparently Shari stated that she was not going to inform me of this discrepancy because it wouldn't hurt me. I don't want to mis-interpret tWs statement, but it you understand anything about design integrity and the financial economics of any real estate development, eight units does most certainly affecl me when comes to my ability to live up to the conditions placed on this project. The project has 8.lready been reduced by twenty-eight units and should DQ! be furtper reduc~d to accommodate what the neighbors see when there are several other VIable ~lternatives to accQp,1plish that objective~ t .... .. I do therefore requ~st that this condition be clarified based on the intent tbafTammy DeWeerd bad in mind. I d<{not want to undl!ly influence her in ~ it clear. It would simply be requested that the findings of fact anCi conclusions of law clarify her intent in how many buildings will be affected by the two story requirement and~how many units, if any, .will be lost. ~ you most sincerely for your time and consideration. . ~: ; ~ ~p ~~: ...:~4. ;..-~ ~ ~. ..~~ ~LJ~~ Vicki Welker, President :~ ~~ ;.: v: ',.\ :;.., :;~! ~7 ~ I: ~ '. ~ ~ ~ :J t\.\ 1 () <( H. f. :o-} ....... 8 ~ -:r \0 ::;,: ':~ ~ ,~: ..:.i #.,. ~ ~~: .~\ . .i ; ,. , ..~ 't. ~-~ ~ .t: \U --;;: --l <(:.: ~ ~ ~c\ *::\\= \i ", ~!~~ j ~* ~~' ... r-~ ({J W ~ ~ tu~ p ~-" ~.

From: To: Bill Subtect: Valeri Heights Date: October 6, 2000 Bill: Please find attached a letter from Vicki Welker in regards to the Valeri Heights project. I spoke with Shelby yesterday, October 5th, and she informed me of the letter. I picked the box up at City Hall, which had this letter in it, and wanted to bring it to your attention. Additionally, I did request the minutes for September 19th on all the Valeri Heights projects. So, I guess we'll see how long those take to receive. I did do all the revisions to the drafts, and have the three files at my desk and ready for any additional information that might need to be added. ~'j t.~i ~ ~t ;'11:: ~: ~: ~~~ ,~~ ~ ~ober2,200Q Mr. Bill Nichols, Attorney for the City ofMeridi~ Tammy DeWeerd and Members of City Council; :.:. ~: ::::> The findings of fact and conclusions of law for the Valeri Heights apR,oval of annexation, reZ9fte, prelimin9-ry plat and conditional use permit will be on the agenda for ~~ ,.. Tuesday, October 3, 2000. It was my desit;~ to ask for reconsiqeration of the copdition that requires the reductioq.ofthe two most northerly buildings to two-story, and therefore a reduction of eight units from the project. We prepared the attached computer drawings done in 3-D to show-that a reduction in grading height would accomplish what we beli~ved ~~:intended by this condition. This subject had been discussed at length with the neighbor~; ~~The consensus_~ofthe i~; ;~ neighbors was (or th~,e4uction in height by<grading. The neighbo~s had the desire for tbe desiBn integritY. of the project to remain consistent and that all buildin~ look similar. We did ~ not know ~t this item would COIl)e up after the Dearing was closed and could not be discussed or explained in length if it was a problem. If~ere was a need in the mind of City Council to make ~he closest~ building two story, it is still unclear why the need for a reduction in units when they could easily be moved to the inside third story of other buildings witliout an affect on ~ ~ neighbors. I have been informed that this item cannot be reconsidered without the requirement of an additional public hearing so I am not ,going to ask for thati. reconsiileration. .~ ;:.:;; ~... ~"'I I attended the party: for Skip V oss on Friday afternoon after I made that decision and inforn1ed planning anp zoning: staff of it. When I returned home, I received a phone call from. a ne!ghbor in the area of the project. He had also attended the Pam' and had a discussio~ with Talnmy DeWeerd and.Shari StUes about this condition. There seems to be sqp1e confusion as to what was intended. If you look. at the minutes yoq.:will note the confusioti alSO. As I understand <x: it: Tammy told this neighbor tIuit it was her intention to drop only one building to two stories:~ Shari Stiles believes that it was the discussion she bad with my engineer during the vote and the mention of eight units that ca~d the vote to end the way jt did. Eight units would mean two buildings and therefore the problem. Apparently Shari stated that she.;was not going to inform me of this discrepanCy because it wouldn't hurt me. I don't want to mis-interpret this statement, but it you understand anything about design integrity an~ the financial economics of any real estate developffient, eight units~does most certainly affec.l me when comes to my ability to live . uP.to the cOnditions p~ced,pn t?,i~ p.foject. The project ~ already ~n reduced by twenty-~ight umts and should n~J be :further reduc~d to accommodate What:the neIghbors see when there are ~~eral other viable alternatives to accoJ;pplish that objective. r~ ~ . i".l' .. i;do therefore requ~st that this~onditio~ be clariffed based on the ~t that 'f~y _, DeWeerd had in mind. I do not want to unduly~influence her in making it clear~ It WQuld simply .~ be requested that the findings of fact and conclusions o:f law Glarify her intent m how ooy buildings will be affected by the ~o story requirement and how many units, if any, will be lost.

Meridian, Idaho 83642 Re: Valeri Heights Dear Ms. Me Callister: This letter reflects pertinent questions and answers discussed at the meeting attended by you, Chelesa Ghasserani, Mayor Corrie and me, on October 12, 2000, in the Mayor's conference room. Your first question was whether the developer can bond some of the proposed development requirements and still proceed with the project. Specific reference was made to a letter sent by Councilwoman deWeerd to Ms. Ghasserani. As I indicated; the City Ordinance allows developers to bond for certain improvements, the bond intending to require that the developments be in by a date certain, and if they are not, the bond is then used by the City,:to construct those improvements. A copy of the applicable ~ . ordinance accompanies this letter. The proposed Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Decision and 'Order on '~ach of the three portions of the development application have been drafted but not yet finalized. If the Council does not like the way I have drafted the Findings, then they will make specific directions for revisions to those Findings before adoption. t:~ ,.~ ~ : I~"f 11.'11 ~ '~ Ms. Lisa McCallister October 12, 2000 Page 2 Yau also asked whether another developer, who might acquire the property, would be bound to the development commitments required by the City. The answer is that a Development Agreement will be required as a condition of annexation and zoning, which will require the development to be built according to the City's conditions, and if not, the property is subject to de-annexation and reversion to the R- T zone. You have also asked about the Mayor's veto powers. I enclose a copy of the State Statute in which the Mayor's veto powers are set forth. ::.. Wm. F. Nichols Enclosures cc: Mayor Robert D.
