As the area adjoining Parcel B is in tt~ition, it is not'clear th,!:lt Parcel 13 will still adjoin residential properties at the time Rarcel B is developed." Therefore, OEI does not believe it is appropriate to impose a buffer now. Instead, OEI believes the conditional use process outlined in Recommenga!ion 1.1 .gives th~ City the authority to impose an ........8... __ appropriate buffer when a conditional use application is submitted for Parcel B. :~~ ~;i We have also attached proposed findings and conclusions for the annexation and zoning.

JI ......... . _ . .. . ........ . ... . . ... . . . ~ 't' ~ i" .,; '.' . II. " ~ ~~~ I. f_ II '':; I: _3': t b. Conclusions of Law: The development on Parcel A is consistent with the requirements of the R-4 zone including construction of only single-family homes, maximum density of four units per acre, and the requirement for connection with the municipal water and sewer systems of the City. MCC ~ 11-2-408.B.3. Findings of Fact: The development includes only single-family dwellings. The zone permits conditional uses for Planned ResIdential Developments including modifications for dimensional requirements as provided in the development application. The overaK gross density of the development is 3.5 'Wits per acre, within the 4 unit per acre maximum permitted in the R-4 District, not including density bonuses. The development will connect to the municipal water and sewer systems of the City. ~ L Proposed Findings of Fact and Conclusion! of Law - L-O ~oning. a. Conclusions of Law: The (L-O) zoning desi@nation for Parcel B is harmonious with and in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. ., Findings of Fact: Parcel B is located in an area designate~ for mixed use, in which the Comprehensive Plan pennits office development. Comprehensive Plan at 27. ~ b. Conclusions of Law: The L-O zone is appropriate for Parcel B under the criteria set forth in the zonin~ ordinance, which are 1) that the L-O zone shall act as a transitional buffer between more intense non-residential uses and high density residential uses and 2) that connection to the City's ml.}nicipal water and sewer sy~em is required. MCC ~ 11-2-408.B.7. ~ . Findings of Fact: The property to the west of Parcel B is zoned light industrial (I-L) and is part of a light industrial PUD. Parcel B borders Locust Grove Road on the east. Office development on Parcel B therefore would buffer the residential properties across Locust Grove Road from the light industrial area. Municipal water and sewer connections are available to Parcel B. ~ ., Findings and Conclusans - Annexation IIIi Zoning - Nov. lS.wpd . ~' . . . >:-F .. ,,' ~ I:=! . .. .': ". ':1 .

The 80 acres in question is under contract with O'Neil Enterprises, Inc. ("OEI") to be developed into an upscale, residential neighborhood. There are several items of concern which will be addressed by the Greenhill Estate Homeowners Association and OEI as the project proceeds. However, we feel that one very critical issue must be addressed at this time. , The Greenhill Estate Homeowners Association has met with representatives of OEI to discuss the development ofthe Griffin Property. During our discussions we expressed our concerns that OEI would ask for vehicular access from its development into the Greenhill Estates Subdivision through an undeveloped section of Weatherby Road that currently sits in the Greenhill Estates Subdivision. Representatives of OEI indicated to us that they had no intention of requesting vehicular access through the Greenhill Estates subdivision. We did indicate to the representatives ofOEI that we would be favorable to a foot/bike path connection which would run through the undeveloped section of Weatherby Road. We have reviewed the plat that DEI has prepared of its development (see attached). In reviewing the plat, it is apparent that OEI has!!.!!. intent of adjoining its development with the Greenhill Estates Subdivision by using the undeveloped section of Weatherby Road for vehicular access. We want to keep it that way. We want to express our desire and position that we do not want the undeveloped section of Weatherby Road opened to any type of vehicular access. We are in full support of OEI's current plat (see w::attached) as it relates to the!!.2!! use of the undeveloped section of Weatherby Road for vehicular .... access. Our subdivision is a quiet community that has been around since the Mid-1970's. During the past 20 years, our subdivision has become accustomed to joggers, walkers, horse riders, and bicyclists. We want these activities to continue without an increase in danger due to additional vehicle access. During the past year we have seen increased use of our roads by people trying to avoid the congestion at Franklin and Eagle Roads by cutting through our subdivision. We do not believe the subdivision has the infrastructure, such as streetlights, sidewalks,'or stop signs to allowfor this additional traffic. Let alone the additional traffic that would come from the OEI development if the undeveloped section of Wealherby Road was opened to vehicular access. We ask that you accept the attached signed petitions as a demonstration of our desire to keep the Greenhill Estates Subdivision free from vehicular access through the undeveloped section of Weatherby Road or any other undeveloped Road. If you have any questions, please call me at 288-1027. Sincerely, Kim Knowlton, Committee Chairperson of Protect Greenhill Estates.

Mt. Keith Borup, Chairman . Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission 33 E Idaho S~et Meridian, ID 83642 ... . ll' FROlt Larry Sale, Supervisal Planning & Development Division ~ SUBJECT: W oodbri~e/MAZ99-0020/MCUP99-0037 LO!:ust Grove Road 5/0 Franklin Road The Ada County Highway District has not yet acted on this application due to the complex nature of the traffic in the surrounding areas. As you v,;II recall from my earlier testimony before your Commission, the District and Ada Planning Association staff wa-e concerned that a major collector roadway connecting Eagle Road and Locust G(ove Road may be necessary to accommooate the local traffic from this rapidly growing subarea. That concern has been alleviated by further analysis and we are pleased to ref'l)rt that the level of traffic is not so great as to require the collector road as previously anticipat~. Fewer than 1,000 regional vehicle trips would utilize a roadwaf' connection between Locust Grove Road and Eagle Road ttr:ough this site. A residential collector and local streets pIio~sed in the subject sut:ldivision, and a functionally ,~, classified collectOfj in the Magic View SuBdivision east of this site will be adequate to accommodate both the regional and the site related traffic. Ii. Howawer,.t>ased on the traffic study for this J:X'oject, the main eastJwest street segment in this oovelt,pnent between Locust Grove Road and the fourth internal intersection should be designated as a residential collectai street with no front-on . housing. This is because the forecast traffic volumes on this street segment exceed 1,000 vehicle trips per day, which is the maximum allowable volume on a local residential st~t. District p0licy allows that this street segment be constructed wtth the same street sec'iorJlas a standard residential street, but direct access to the street and on-street parking along this segment are not allo~d. I~ District policy requires the construction of an intra-neighborhood local street I1etween adjoining residential subdivisions wherever possible. This policy would require the extension of Weatherby Drive that extends from Autumn Way in the Greenhill Estates SL.t>divi6ion to the subject site's north property line, aPfl(oximately 650-feet ~st of the eastern boundary of the site. The right-of-Way f~ this street was dedicated in the Greenhill Estates Subdivision but has not been improved. The applicant is not ~osing a stub street to connect with Weatherby Drive. Staff is recOO1mending the roadway be extended because it will enhance the site's interconnectivity to neighboring parcels. The benefits to interconnectivity are as follows: · ,. Reduces tribs onto collectOPs and arterials frc!rTl both subdivisions, thus reducino conoestion while increasino safety, Reduces total vehicle miles of travel thus. ~nefittino air quality and conservino enerqYr;!

We feel that the Staff has done a good job of addressing the critical issues related to the applications and we are appreciative of the Staffs support of the innovative design concepts utilized in the master planning process of Woodbridge. ;,; We would first like to address the option of deferring the application pending a completed transportation study by the Ada County Highway District (ACHD). Subsequent to the letter requesting deferral transmitted to the City of Meridian by the ACHD, ACHD Staff has reviewed all relevant information regarding this application and have stated support of the proposals put forth in the applications submitted by Woodbridge Community, LLC. In addition, it is our understanding that ACHD Staff has prepared a draft report and will be attending the Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing on October 12, 1999. More substantively, Woodbridge Community, LLC would like to address specific comments in the Meridian City staff report regarding access and circulation issues as well as buffering requirements along Locust Grove Rdad. Listed below are our responses to comments #4 and #6 under "Conditional Use Comments". ,.~ Comment #4 identifies four separate issues with the proposed master plan. 1. Emergency Vehicle Access: Staff identifies a need for a permanent, dedicated right of way for emergency access when the development reaches the mark of 100 homes. Woodbridge Community, LLC realizes the concern for life safety issues and is in agreement that an emergency vehicle access should be proyided when the community has obtained 100 occupancy permits. We request the opportunity to provide that access through a temporary alignment of an all weather surface (acceptable to the Meridian Fire Department), as the final plat may not have been prepared for the second phase of development and a final road alignment may not have been approved. 2. Access to Weatherby Drive: Staff suggests in comment #4 that a full vehicular access be established to Weatherby Drive and Greenhill Estates to the north. We looked very closely at this potential access point in the planning process, but made the decision to designate it as a pedestrian and emergency access point after meeting with the neighbors in Greenhill Estates and realizing the concerns of that neighborhood for "cut-through" trafflc. In addition to an all weather emergency vehicle access and pedestrian connection, the applicant would propose to establish a 50 foot right of way for this access point. This would allow for a full vehicular access at some point in the future if and when ACHD determines trafflc counts on Franklin and adjacent roadways to warrant the connection. 3. Circulation: Staff states a concern of inadequate circulation and access on the west side of Five Mile Creek and suggests that the number of units allowed with a single access be limited to 100. Given the ~4i;~:..o.;:4~;;.3~~:"""*,x ~~~:: :-:- ~ ~!<<x xx. :Iv :Iv :-:- """"8,,, 100 North 9th Street, Suite 300. Boise, Idaho 83702"(2081336-3430. fax: (2081 336-5296 ::::::::.,..~ ~.1.j.:...:.::::::::;-;::::0> . ~ll f{ii!t.i: . . design of the roadway system proposed in Woodbridge, ACHD policy allows for a total of250 homes to be constructed with a single access point. Per ACHD policy, we would su~est that the development be restricted to 250 occupancy permits until a functional secondary access point is established. 4. Location of Secondary Access Point: Finally, staff suggests in conunent #4 that the secondary vehicular acass point (to Magic View Estates) be relocated to achieve a more direct route to Eagle Road to the east. Woodbridge Conununity, LLC selected the proposed access point after a careful analysis of the surrounding transportation system. Woodbridge Conununity LLC is in support of providing a 50 foot right of way connection to Magic View Estates and feels that the location of the Stub Street proposed in the plan is the appropriate one at this time given the uncertainty of the re- development pattern of Magic View Estates. If it is determined in the future that the access point needs to be relocated, Woodbridge Conununity, LLC is conunitutd to working with Planning and Zoning Staff, ACHD and neighbors to explore another mutually agreed upon location for access. Conunent #6, under Conditional Use Conunents, Staff suggests that additional setback lands be required to buffer the residences along Locust Grove Road. 1. Buffer Requirement: It is our understanding that stllfIs interp~tation of the intent of the buffer requirement is to provide a buffer from the traffic impacts of Locust Grove Road. Woodbridge Conununity, LLC would submit that we understand the need for a buffer along Locust Grove Road as it is in our best interest to protect the residents of our conununities from these impacts. However, it is our feel~ that we have met the intent of the ordinance requirement through a combination of a 22.5 foot landscape strip with a detached pedestrian pathway, berming, extensive landscaping, solid fencin8 and homesites which allt designed to afford gr...ter rear yard area and depth. In who I., the buffer ama proposed along Locust Grove is far superior to the base requirements of the Zoning and Development Ordinance. We would request that the Conunission take into consideration all of the design elements proposed in this planned developml!lnt application when @iving consideration to this issue. ,.'j In addition to the conunents from the staff report that are addressed above, Woodbridge Community, LLC would like to voice our concern that several of the cOIIUJ:)lnts contained in the staff report, depending on their interpretation, could be contrary to the intent of the plan and the goals of the City of Meridian. As an example, we feel that a number of the general comments from the Zoning and Development Ordinance refer to multi-family and conunercial planned unit developments (PUD's) rather than single family PUD's. Rather than addressing each item individually at the hearing on October 12, 1999, we would like to suggest that Woodbridge Conununity, LLC work with Staff in helping to prepare a draft development agreement for the consideration of the City Council and adoption by the City of Meridian. Again, thank you for the opportunity to provide comment on the Woodbridge staff report. :1 Scott Beecham 1~ 00 ~..11 ..... ** TX C~IR~ REPORT ** OCT 12 .4:56 AS OF P~E.01 CITY OF MiRIDIAN ~, 07 DATE TIME TO/FROM 10/12 14:55 PUBLIC WORKS CMDl:* STATUS 184 ()( MWDE MIN/5EC PG5 lJi' --5 0il' 44" 002 JIJIL O'NEILL ENTERPRlS&$.

We at O'Neill Enterprises are indeed pleased to be presenting to the City of Meridian for approval a plan on the 80 acres of property bisected by Five Mile Creek east of Locust Grove Road and between Franklin Road and the Interstate. While each of the communities we have developed in the last 20 years (River Run, Spring Meadow, The Springs, Meadow Creek, Surprise Valley in Boise; Lane Ranch in Sun Valley; and Spring Mountain Ranch in McCall) are unique in their design, they all share common elements and approaches to community design and development.

Unfortunately, another common element is the fact that most Planning and Zoning Commissions, and indeed City Councils, are not used to dealing with the planned unit development concept and consequently, resist them. The whole premise of the PUD portion of comprehensive plans and PUD ordinances is based on the notion of trade-offs as identified in the Meridian Zoning and Development Ordinance under Section 9-607.A. In order to encourage more innovative design, more open space, more community amenities and a greater variety of housing, it is recognized fl that the PUD process has the authority to override some of the standards regarding lot size and setbacks required in the subdivision ordinance (Section 9-607.B, of the Meridian Zoning and Development Ordinance). Said another way, in order to provide a maximum choice ofliving enTIronments and the amenity level that we do in terms of open space, recreation facilities, pathway system, enhanced wildlife habitat and exceptional landscaping, we need the flexibility to provide for a reduction in lot dimensions, yards, building setbacks and area requirements, ~ We are convinced the "trade-offs" provided through the PUD process is good for the community and we have made it work for us with upwards of 2000 contented residents in our communities. Moreover, I believe any study would indicate that the absorption (annual sales pace) within our communities and the re-sale prices generated over the years (not to mention the increase in assessed tax base) would indicate that the concept, when well executed, does indeed create exceptional and lasting value for our residents and the community at large. We believe with the unique site we are dealing with, Woodbridge, as a well planned and well executed PUD, will be a successful community, and one in which both OEI and the City of Meridian can take pride. .:- Thank you for your consideration.
