Sonya,
Due to the revision to the south area (because of the collector roadway), it reduced the available area for those
pickleball courts. We were well over our amenity points required, but we did add back in a few other
amenities. We now have 7.5 points (3 are required) that consist of the following:
2 picnic areas that are over 5000sf (2 points each, 4 points total)
1 tot lot (1 point)
1 dog waste station (0.5 points)
1 bike repair station (1 point)
1 multi-use pathway (950 linear feet, 1 point)
There is a multi-use pathway also on the south side of the creek, providing for future connectivity for the
commercial and residential users in phase 2 along with the picnic area down there (since the collector roadway
more fully bisects the site, we added in the more substantial green space that would be usable by more people,
rather than pickleball courts on the south side that could overly impact those 10 lots). We also added some
educational signage on the south side of the creek that would be similar to other markers/signs in Meridian that
are along canals/creeks. The future residents south of the creek would have direct pedestrian access to the
amenities north of the creek as well (by crossing the bridge along Wells St.).
The amenities north of the creek are the same as before, with the addition of the bike repair station and dog waste
station along the more “developed” multi-use path.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
Thanks!

Has the (2) pickleball courts been removed?

Sonya,
The previous elevations are not applicable to the project since the builder has changed. Phase 2 will
have 2-story homes that may be similar to the previous elevations, but I am not sure if we can show those
if that builder is not engaged to build them. I will let Ryan confirm that though.
Attached are also the revised preplat and landscape plans. I will send the other plans in a separate email
due to size. These plans show the collector roadway in Council's preferred location and the commercial
and residential areas adjusted accordingly. The surveyor will have the revised legal descriptions/exhibits
for Phase 2 (the revised area) zones prepared by the end of the week, and I will forward those along.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything additional.
Thank you,

Am I deleting all of the previous elevations from the report and replacing them with the ones you sent or leaving
them all in?

All of the elevations would fit on any of the buildable lots in Phase 1, so there wouldn’t be a specific model for
specific lots.

Do they replace all earlier versions for different lot sizes?

These elevations are just for the north end (Phase 1), right?
