Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea Corrie: I am going to take a slight jaunt from the agenda far right now Council, I would like to have a little talkfrom Dina Belser, who is part of the Treasure Valley Institute, she would like to update you on what we are doing and I think invite you to a dinner too. Belser: Thank you Mayor Carrie, as the Mayar said I am Dina Belser and I am actually a consultant based in Berkley, California and am up here working with Mayor Coles from Boise to put together this Treasure Valley Institute. I don't know how much you al! have heard about this but that is why we are here. I am here tonight with Elizabeth Conner from Mayor Coles' office. This idea, this institute is an opportunity to bring together local elected officials from the Treasure Valley region to look at issues related to growth and ways to deal with the growth that this valley has been facing and probably will continue to face over the next ten years. A lot of cities in the west have had this problem recently and haven't known how to deal with it very proactively. In Boise the Treasure Valley region sees the opportunity now to begin to really move ahead with a program to deal more proactively with growth and again some of the larger communities have in the west. So, Mayar Cases and I put together this idea for this Treasure Valley Institute and it is based on a model that has been developed by the Nations[ Endowment far the Arts which established a program about ten years ago to educate Mayors about issues of land planning and urban design. Many elected officials come to this job particularly in Meridian City Council May 6,1997 Page 2 places like Meridian where you have to deal with a lot of land use issues but you don't have a background necessarily in land use policy or regulatory framework. The National Endowment for the Arts at the suggestion of several mayors realized that there was a need to educate mayors and other elected officials but mostly focusing on Mayors about this type of issue. ~o the National Endowment runs this program at various universities around the country. They run a two day seminar mostly it is attended by faculty from the university, some outside professionals and then mayors come to this two day seminar and they present case studies from their communities and receive critiques from the professionals and the academics. There is such an institute that is run at the University of California at Berkley every year and Mayor Coles came three years ago to one of these institutes. That is where he and 1 met because l have been a resource panelist far the institute far many years. I came up and participated in an urban land institute panel up here the urban land institute is the main professional and educational organization far the land development community. As part of the experience I gat to know the Treasure Valley. Then Mayor Coles and I cooked up this idea as a follow up to the urban land institute program which was about 2 years ago, what we will be doing is in June we will be running a four day institute. It starts on Monday night June 15 and goes through Thursday the 19#~ and it is broken into two parts. There are two large plan area sessions essentially which involve all of the lava! elected oft~cials including City Gouncii members from 6 Treasure Valley communities including Meridian and Ada and Canyon County, the County Commissioners. These plan area sessions will be on Monday night, June 15th and an Thursday morning June 19t". In between is a two day workin session g which will involve just the 5 mayors and one County Commissioner from each of the two counties, Ada and Canyon County. Monday night the 16th for the first plan area session well actually bath of these sessions we'll be balding at Raise Center on the Grove in Boise. There will be a dinner reception kind of a event and then a keynote speaker. At this point we are thinking that we are going to have Dan Camas who is the former Mayor of Missoula, Montana come and give the keynote address talking about regionalism and why people should be concerned about thinking about themselves as a region. The Mayors will have this two day working session which is structured around four issues that we have identified having been visiting to each of these cities and talking to the Mayors, they will be making presentations to each other, the resource panelists will be there. These are professionals who are coming from a!l over the country to work on this program. Then the mayors will have an opportunity to spend some time talking with each other and the commissioners, talking with each about what they have learned through this session and put forth their own ideas about where they want to go forward with addressing some of the regional issues. Then Thursday morning the 19th they will be making a presentation to au, eve bod will be invited Y rY Y back again to Boise Center an the Grove to discuss this initiative and it is very important that you see yourself as partners in this although you are not coming to the two day working session. These two plan area sessions are very important and the initiatives that the mayors and the commissioners put forward will really try to shape an agenda far this entire region. we will be inviting the City Council members, as l said the County Commissioners, as well as key department heads from every community and other civic Meridian City Council May B, ~ 99l Page 3 !~ f leaders, Chamber of Commerce members, members of the State Legislature, members of the US Congressional delegation, because we really see this again as a partnership among all of these different players who have different roles to play in the institute. ~Ne have worked up a hand out that gives mare background information, describes the issues that we are looking at that Elizabeth is going to hand out to you now, I can't thank you enough far giving me the time and again I stress the importance of your participation in this event. It is not just something that Mayor Corrie is doing but it is something that you will all be called upon to participate at some point in the future, If you have any questions again, we have given you this reading material. You can always address future questions to Mayar Corrie or Elizabeth Conner in the Mayors office in Boise. Carrie: Any questions? Thank you very much. Belser: Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you on June 1 ~~" ITEM #1: TABLED APRIL 1, 1997: FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW FOR VARIANCE REQUEST FOR ASHFORD GREENS SUBDIVISION BY BRIGHTON CORPORATION: Corrie: Is there a representative from Brighton Corporation here that would like to refresh our memory an this one? Stile: Mr. Mayor and Council we are still working on same of the details with the irrigation committee I would like that to be tabled for another month if possible. Marrow: I would move that we table to June 3rd the Ashford Greens variance request. Tolsma: Second Corrie: Motion made by Mr. Morrow, second by Mr. Talsma to table the findings of fact and conclusions of lawfor Ashford Greens Subdivision until June 3rd meeting, all those in favor? Gppased? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea Marrow: Mr. Mayar, as a means of follow up here the results of the irrigation committee's discussions and positions have been presented to at least two of the Council in our planning session. Sa we are ready for Council action so I would suspect that it would be appropriate for us in this month's planning session to take the steps and implement draft of where it is we want to go and have that discussion and adapt a forrnai position at perhaps our first meeting in June and then we can deal with whether this needs to have a variance ar nat. Meridian City Council May 5,1997 Page 4 Bentley: I have a question, so we are going to have to make the decision an irrigation issues and then we are going to inform Ashford Greens whether ar not they need the variance? Morrow: That would be correct. Corrie: Any further questions? ITEM #2: TABLED APRIL 15, 1997: REQUEST FOR A REZONE OF APPROXIMATELY 9.42 ACRES FROM R-4 TO R-15 BY LORIN SAUNDERS: Corrie: Is Mr. Saunders here tonight or a representative thereof? Tolsma: Mr. Mayor I have to step down an this because this is a conflict for me. Borup; Mr. Saunders is not here but far tonight I would be his representative. It is my understanding and maybe I need to clarify that, that it was tabled last time. Council is requesting at least same type of concept plan an what was not necessarily a full plat is that everyone's understanding too. Corrie: I believe sa, he had no objections to an R-8 but he wanted an Rw15 and we had same problems with what he wanted to do with it sa that the concept that we are looking at. ~JVe da have some preliminary concept plans Mayor and members of the Council the intention here was to develop a town house project which would be separate deeded lots and ownership. Initially the R-~ 5 was felt that would accomplish that the easiest way. A couple of things have come up in doing a preliminary plat. Gne of them was the recommendation I think even beyond that requirement to have tie in access to the Hansen property to the west of this. And then some things were clarified on Nine Mile Creek also. In tying into the Hansen's property for them to have usable access it necessitated moving the roadway from what the original, one of the original concepts was which still did a layout. The only thing at this paint that is a little bit of a problem is that area there where as a question mark is quite a large area with no real goad access. The, I am not sure what can be done in that area, the best use it looked like would probably be maybe be apartments in that area, some four plexes in that area. I am not sure haw that fits in with what was already discussed. The other thing on the town house aspect was some of the, it looked like some of the lots on a block could come out with an uneven number which would mean neither a single family house or maybe better use as a triplex type unit. But the concept still is to be a Lawn house with deeded lots. Again maybe some better layouts could be taken care of, we do have a railroad buffer on the south of the property. A 155 foot right of way for Nine Mile Creek which looks like doing anything other than keeping that open is not going to happen. Nampa Meridian would just assume cover it, the Army Carps of Engineers and Bureau of Reclamation just assume keep it apes. Didn't have a lot of other, unless there are some questions other than maybe my question is this enough of a concept ar are we Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 5 looking for more detail at this point. It was kind of felt to go ahead with doing a full real detail needed to know what size the building units would be and same of that was difficult without knowing exactly what was looking at on zoning and zoning requirements. Mlle have a piece here that is adjacent to an apartment complex and a condo complex and sandwiched in between that and some bare land on the other side which in past years has had applications in for I understand it for an apartment complex. Sa it is kind of a difficult piece to develop in a market place. It is definitely diff cult as single family housing. But we thought this was a good use for that area where it down with the apartments vn one side and railroad tracks on the other side. Corrie: Council, questions? Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I have questions, Mr. Borup your interest in this project is? Borup; At this point the intention is a joint venture with Lorin Saunders an development and construction of the buildings. We have a verbal agreement at this point, we have not signed a formal agreement. Morrow: I guess from my perspective l am having a terrible time with conflict of interest here. You are a sitting member on the P 8~ Z Commission? Borup: Yes, and my association with Mr. Saunders came after the initial submission to P & Z. When it came before findings of fact, I withdrew myself from participation on that because I had one phone conversation with him at that time. So I abstained, but prior at the first meeting there I had not had any contact with him at all. Morrow: Okay, but then you are representing him tonight? Borup: Yes Marrow; I have no more questions at this time. Rountree: Keith what is the ballpark figure of square footage for one of these long lots on what appears to be Broadway extended? Borup; I don't have my plat, but the smallest lots in there are you looking at the area south Rountree: South of the drain Borup: okay, most of those along there an the concept are about 40 feet wide which would be equivalent to an 8U foot lot if it was a duplex lot. The intention is not to go to duplex, one duplex lot and put a duplex an it to go to deeded lots. The depth varies from ~ ag to about ~ 3U I believe because that piece widens as it goes to the west so the ~, Meridian City Council May G,1997 Page ~ depths increase as it goes further to the west. Vlle are well under the 8 per acre, believe this is coming out around 5~ lots the way that is drawn now plus that large question mark area that is hard to access. I think an ~ per acre would came out about l5 lots. Rountree: You indicated the Bureau and the Corps were apposed to tiling the Nine Mile Drain? Borup: They didn't say they were opposed they said it would be a whole other process. Their initial response was they are fine with whatever Nampa Meridian wants to do. And they had na real input they wanted to give on the thing and then it was brought up about tiling it and they said well that is different, if it is tiled then we would have to go through the application process with them and their inclination was they just assume leave it open. Ida knave talking that well maybe not, the same ditch goes through Salmon Rapids talking with that developer he did not try to, he did not apply to have it tiled though inaudible} all he did was road crossing. The initial, that was the first idea was to file the whole thing and have a park like a green belt in that area, which is still what would happen but you lase a lot of it to the open ditch area. But that is a lot larger right of way then most of the canals and drainage that we see. Rountree: I don't have any further questions. Cowie: Thank you, Council, questions of Staffs Rountree: My guess is that staff doesn't have any mare time with it than we da. But if they have some immediate questions I would like to hear them. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I think for purposes of discussion two items is that I don't think that where we ask Mr. Saunders to present a development plan that this qualifies as a development plan in comparison to what we get from other folks that we require development plan for. The other issue is a bit of a sensitive one and that is with respect to the conflict of interest issue that it would be better served inaudible} Mr. Saunders were representing himself or hire outside counsel rather than a member of the city government. l am sensitive to the fact that by virtue of our industry we are involved in buying and selling fats in projects and in the course of business we do business within the City. But we do sa declare, we do sa by hiring outside inspectors and in no way, shape or form put ourselves in position where there is the slightest appearance of conflict of interest. Sv I think from what my perspective I would like to see a table an this sa that Mr. Saunders can either present the project himself, hire somebody else to present the project and develop the development plan that is more line with what we see presented from other development teams that do business before us in the City. Cowie: ether comments for discussion? Meridian City Council May 6, ~ 997 Page 7 Rountree: Mr. Mayor, I tend to agree with Uvalt in terms of the amount of definition we have for this particular development. I am a little uneasy yet to pursue the findings of fact with the request for an R-15 without some more specificity. Again back to previous discussions if it were an R-8 type of development I would still like to see some mare specific information but I would be more inclined to Iook favorable upon that. As far as some of these unusable spaces and the Nine Mile Drain if that is not tiled l think it should b incorporated into some open space. Given the density of residential the attractiveness of that drain for all ages of folks to make sure that is an amenity to that part of the community if in fact it is developed as opposed to an attractive nuisance. Bentley: l would just concur with what has been said and I too would lean better towards an R-S gone, it is has been spoken in the findings that Mr. Saunders doesn't have a problem with it and the current residences that are there feel the same way they want to see an R-8. Vvith that I would agree that this should be tabled until the next meeting. I move we table it to the 2Q~" of May. Rountree: Second Carrie: Motion made by Mr. Bentley, second by Mr. Rountree to table item #~ until May 9th meeting, any further discussion? All those in favor? Gpposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #3: FINAL PLAT FOR SALMON RAPIDS N0. 4 SUBDIVISION, 54 LOTS BY FARWEST DEVELOPERS: Carrie: Is there a representative from FanNest Developers here? Bowcutt: UVe received stafl"s comments on Friday, I faxed response to all of their comments on Monday, they were sent to vVill and Bruce Freckletan. I think we pretty much concurred with all of the comments. I did have a little discussion on item ten, it was indicated that prior to plan approval and plat approval we hid to have Nampa Meridian Irrigation District accept the pressurised irrigation in this phase four. I indicated that obviously they don't accept something that is not constructed and I can't construct something unless I have plan approval so I can get apre-con. So I had a little conflict there. In speaking with Bruce earlier he said he spoke with Gary and they revised that to state prior to signature on the final plat we will provide evidence that Nampa Meridian has accepted the system. Corrie: Becky did they get that street name straightened out with ACHD on the ten letters or more, item number nine? f.. Meridian City Council May G, ~ 997 Page 8 Bowcutt: The last response that we got from the highway district they used to use a formula far each letter in each space based an the width of a sign. They now allow us to have 13 that including letters and spaces. I got a letter to that effect I think late last year. I stated in my response that I will get a specific fetter addressing this verbiage. I would like them to came out and instead of addressing each time this happens dust come out with their new policy statement on how they are dealing with the length of street names. Corrie: Questions of Ms. Bowcutt? Marrow: I have questions of bath Gary and Shari, are you satisfied with the response provided in terms of your questions? Stiles: Councilman Morrow, Mayor and Council, I didn't have any separate comments on this proposal in addition to what Bruce had. But I believe they have answered any questions that i had. Marrow: Gary you are fine? Smith: Yes I am Councilman. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I would move that we approve the final plat for Salmon Rapids No. ~ subdivision by Far~vest Developers subject to all staff, ACRD and Nampa Meridian conditions of approval. Tolsma: Second Corrie: Motion made by Mr. Morrow, second by Mr. Tolsma to approve the flnaf plat ofi Salmon Rapids No. 4 Subdivision as stated, any further discussion? Hearing none all those in favor? Gpposed? MUTIGN CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #4: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF APPROXIMATELY ONE HALF ACRE BY DAVID & BECCI CARMACK: Corrie: At this time I will open the public hearing and invite Becci or David or both. David Carmack, ~ 7q5 Pine Avenue, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Carmack: Just briefly we have been working on this annexation, we have a single fiamify dwelling home, 4g year old modest brick home with my wife and several children. About a year ago we started this process having being naive and not known what we are getting into. vVe are dust about ready to give up but we are here tonight to see if we can 1 Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 9 perhaps finalize this and get this going. If not we just want to withdraw it and give up and stay in the county I guess. INe got a whole bunch of new things ghat we have to da from the Ada County Highway District including new driveways, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, this and that. And at this point we are ready to throw our hands up and say we withdraw our motion. vVe want to see if there is any way we can conclude this tonight. vlle are not a developer, every letter we get it addresses our developer to do this and the developer to do that. we are just a single family trying to annex into the city, My wife has done the majority of the work I am here basically to support her. She has done almost everything with Shari and others of the City Council. I would be happy to answer any questions. Corrie: Any questions of Council of David? Rountree: Have you read the findings of fact and conclusions that Planning and Zoning prepared. Carmack: I have to admit I have not, my wife has. Rountree: Some folks might have some questions of you. ~ecci Carmack, ~ 7051N. Pine, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Carmack: Thank you Mr. Mayor and Councilmen, we are a little discouraged with this process. It has been a year in just a few days and we are not developers so it has been, being without water for foe days was difficult for our family of seven. doing through this process far the last year hasn't been much easier, it has been extremely difficult. I guess tonight what we would like to know is what you would expect from us at this paint. As my husband said we just keep receiving things from one organization after another. Uve have been asked to build a road into our property by the Ada County Highway Department which we have a half an acre, I am not sure why they would like us to build a road next to the side of our property. They say that we should pave our driveways which have been paved for probably ~g years now. vVe just would like to know your expectations, what more you would want of us. vllhat things we need to do in order to finalize this or to make our portion of the decision. Sa da you have feedback, could you let us know? Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I guess Becci I have a couple of questions, or basically one question. You say this has been almost a year in the process's Carmack: Yes it has sir. Morrow: Can you tell me a little bit or bring me up, I have read the minutes and the findings and quite candidly 1 can't understand why this process has taken so Iong. Can you bring us up to speed? Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 10 Carmack: I think a significant amount of the process was way late because our application was last by Planning and Zoning for a period of approximately 5 months, Since we weren't a developer and I didn't nag them, I wasn't sure when I talked to Mr. Ehlert, he said we will let you know when we need something from you and we didn't hear. And finally I did call and I said are we ever going to hear anything about this and he said we last that. Same ofi that was due to that being Iost. Also a lot of it was due to the fact that we were waiting to find out what was required of us so we would ask and then it would take quite some time before we received news of what we were to do and to get that process underway. At one point when we were near to giving up before I came in and spoke with Mayor Carrie he said let's see what we can do to expedite this and make this a little bit better. He was very helpful and kind of streamlining the annexation process so that we were able to go ahead with it and I really appreciated that it was very useful. I am not exactly sure the answer to that other than it has been a series of delays in communication between what was expected and what we should da at each point. Morrow: Let me ask you this, my impression here is that this is very simply a half acre I ot. Carmack: That is correct. Marrow: That fronts on Linder I am sorry on Pine, west of Linder, it is a home site that all you simply and to do is avail yourself with city facilities. Carmack: our septic tank is currently fine, we haven't had any problems with it. In the beginning we were told that if there were to be any problems that we would not be allowed to repair them. That is certainly understandable, there is a hook up out front and we knew that from the onset that we wouldn't be allowed to make any repairs that is fine. we did need the water because of a foot valve I believe in the pump went out and then they couldn't pull it, they couldn't pull that out to fix it. So they kept off the well and we didn't have water and we needed the water. when we went through that we are a very small enclave there and they were very encouraging strongly encouraged us to pursue annexation along with getting hooked up rather than to do anything else, that is the recommendation we received from every office we spoke with. Rountree: The same question I asked your husband about the findings of fact and conclusions, that pretty much would state what the expectations were. what are the issues there that you have with those. Carmack: I have gone through that fairly carefully there are a couple of questions that I have. It mentions that we would be expected to hook up to sewer and so our question was that is different then what we have been told previously that we wouldn't be allowed to repair and we would have to hook up to sewer at that time. So I guess one question Meridian City Council May 6, ~ 99l Page ~ ~ ~,. { would be when would that be expected of us. I have heard Mr. Smith give testimony in other meetings that you are not exactly out beating the streets for customers, it is not that you need people to be hooked up to that. Sa I am not sure that you need us to be hooked up and we don't need that service at this time. So I guess that is one of our questions. The other question is it does say in the conclusions of law at the end that we would be expected to comply with any of the other recommendations sent forth by all of the organizations involved. Which basically is everything else and our mains concerns would be those set forth by Ada County Highway District with regard to sidewalks, gutters, changing our driveway, curbing, etc. which is number ~ 4, page ~ 0 on the conclusions. Those are our two main concerns. The property exists pretty much as it has for the last ~~ years, the home has been there for quite some time. I am not sure what could be done to the property there is really no other place to build on it. There, our area fronting Pine is not wide enough from east to west to do any kind of building there. Sa there is really no development to be done and we don't have any plans except to live there. So I am not sure what is necessary as far as that goes, Are there other questions? Sometime during this meeting would you let us know what is expected because that would be something that we are certainly interested in. Carmack: My name again is Dave Carmack, are we here to make a decision here tonight or this going to be another meeting where we have to come back again? This is the final decision tonight? When will we know the decision? Morrow: In a few minutes. Carrie: Thank you, anybody else from the public that would like to issue testimony on this annexation? Hearing Wane, Counci! discussion, questions of staff? I will close the public hearing. Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Council, I just wanted to let you knew, they were immediately hooked up when their septic system or water well failed which was back in May of ~ 998. Council directed them that as a condition of being hooked up to water they had to be annexed into the City. We received their application in October of ~ 998. They did, there was some problem with their application that it was misplaced and it was several months and until Mrs. Carmack called we didn't have it put on the agenda and it was finally put an the agenda in March of this year. AI! of the conditions that are in here are development conditions. Ada County Highway District I thought was pretty specific thinkwhen we had our technical review meeting with them letting them known this is not something that you have tv do today, this is something that you will do when further development takes place on your property. When you expand your building, anything like that and that was made very clear. As far as anything else, I know it is a Iot #o go through for a single family home. But I would just ask that you approve these f ndings as they are written with the understanding that it will be when the property is developed beyond what it is today. That the annexation ordinance be prepared for the R-3 zoning instead of the R-2 that was originally requested. f Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 12 Tolsma: Gary, da you have a problem with not hooking, up the sewer to this property until the septic system fails? Smith: l would just fallow your direction, the motion that was previously made by Councilman Marrow was that they were to connect to the sewer as soon as possible. So if you want to further dune that for me that is fine. vile can write it up that way. Tolsma:111le11 I was just thinking of the problems that we have had being last and forlorn and the monetary losses that they have already suffered. It might not be too bad to let it ride far awhile until that septic system goes away. Smith: The ordinance requires that anyone within 3g0 feet of a sewer ar water facility is required to connect, that is an ordinance requirement. If you want to, if the Council wants to be specific and vary frarn that to a future paint in time then I guess if our City Attorney says you can do it that way, l don't know. But if that is within your jurisdiction to Marrow: Inaudible} I made a motion with this issue? Smith: Yes sir Rountree: Back in May Morrow: A year ago inaudible} Mr. Mayor, I guess the issue is that knowing the facts clearly in my mind this is an issue where bureaucracy has run amuck. l think this is very simply a half acre lot with a single family house an it that had same needs. I think that from my perspective I would like to see us approve the annexation. I would like to see the findings amended to reflect that the sewer be hooked up at the time of the failure of the septic system. And that we do away with the ACHD requirements, very candidly future development of a half acre site with an existing single family residential could be nothing more than an addition to the single family residential aspects or the addition of a shop or a garage ar something that still continues to service a single family residence. At such time as inaudible} at that point in time either through LSD or water assessment ACHD can get their curb and gutter and sidewalk as types of improvement issues. Sa it seems to me in this case that this is something that should have been completed some months ago. I think what I want to see happen is that we delete the ACHD findings and we allow the sewer to be hooked upon failure of septic system or upon sale of the house. (End of Tape) Bentley: (inaudible) sorry for the delay on this whatever all the situations that happened but I would agree, I think we need to resolve this. ~~, Meridian City Council May G,199~ Page ~ 3 Corrie: I guess I have one question, I apologize far taking so fang, I saw the name here and then I saw your face and thought good heavens haven't they got that yet. I remember our conversation. One question counselor, I feel for this whale situation, what is the faw? Can we go ahead and do it and lust the way that we are planning on doing it? Crookston: No, our ordinance requires that property within 304 feet of sewer or water that any homes connect to that. The only way you can get around that is to have a variance of that requirement. Morrow: What about connection date? Crookston: I would have to look at the ordinance again, I don't recall that it has a set time for performance but the ordinance says that they shall connect. Smith: Fifteen days. Carrie: If I am correct, I have a feeling of where we are going with this, we need a variance from them and then we inaudible} has to go the other way again. Crookston: That is correct. Currie: I want to do this sa that you don't have any problems again. I don't want ta, we have gone long enough with this. But l think we had better follow the procedure sa it doesn't get tied up if something happens down the road. Crookston: Well I suppose the concern for the Carmack's is how much is it going to cost to obtain the variance lust in filing fees and publications and things like that as opposed to how much is it going to cost to connect to the sewer. Which is something they will have to find out and make that decision. But we have ordinances and we are supposed to enforce them. The only way to get around enforcement of sewer and water development ordinances ~s to request a variance, Corrie: Hearing that Council Morrow: A theoretical question, when the City force annexes by enclave annexation how does the ordinance deal with that? Crookston: In the same fashion. Morrow: So in other words if we have, if we square up the city's boundaries and eliminate enclaves that we are telling those folks by virtue of annexation they have to hook up to sewer and water. Meridian City Council May 6,199? Page 14 Crookston: The way our ordinances read now that is correct. Rountree: well one out of two isn't too bad, we can deal with ACHD. Morrow. That is true, but we can also (inaudible). Bentley: For their information because they are looking on time sines of when we can get this thing resolved. We can resolve the issue of the annexation, we can resolve the issue of ACHD. If they decide to apply for the variance what time frame are we looking at that to get them trough that? Crookston: You are looking at approximately 30 to 45 days. You only have the one hearing before the City Council, the time line is the publication of the notice and having the City Council hearing. There also has to be findings of fact on (inaudible). Bentley: As a follow up I would like to ask one of the Carmacks what their feelings are whether they would prefer to go with the immediate hack up to the sewer or whether they would want tv ga for the variance? Carmack: Does anybody have an idea of what it would cost, $1000 or $2000? Marrow: If I might offer a suggestion, part of the variance application we can waive the fees of the application, sa what I am suggesting to you and it is certainly up to you is I would ga far the variance and ask for a variance hookup until the time the system fails and I would also ask for a waiver of fees for the variance. Carmack: we are not apposed to the sewer idea of hooking up, we think if and when we ever sell it will be helpful to sell the home. Fifteen days, if it is mare than just a couple thousand dollars, we have a little bit in savings but not a lat. Bentley: would you be open to the suggestion that Councilman Morrow made, can you live with the 45 days to get through the variance? You have waited a year. Marrow: what the issue Mr. Carmack would be is your zoning application, annexation and zoning application is moving forward tonight, Then the option you could have would be asking far a variance from hooking up to the sewer and a variance of the fees thereof. Very likely what is liable to come back from the Council is that you probably get the variance subject to two conditions, either septic system failing at such time that you would hook up to the sewer or upon sale of the house you would hook up to the sewer. Carmack: I guess we have kind of lost our confidence in that it is as simple as you are saying. Marrow: we are now aware of the problem and I apologize. Meridian City Council May G, ~ 99~ Page 15 Carmack: If we are talking about one mare meeting, another 45 days, no mere cast to us, does the variance application cast, it was X400 for this application. Bentley: It is talking waiver offiees for it. Crookston: You would apply for a waiver of the fees as part of your variance request if that is what you desire. Carmack: The other option is that we have to hook up within 15 days as Gary has mentioned. If it is $4000 or $5000 we really don't have a choice. Either that or (inaudible) go with the variance then. Corrie: I think that is a good choice (inaudible). Stiles: What is it that you are considering nova/? Carrie; UVe are going to do the annexation and zoning now and then I will have them come to you for help. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I would move that we adopt the amended Endings of fact and conclusions of law. The amendment would be to strike the ACHD requirements and to strike the, let me rephrase the motion. I would move that we adopt the findings ofi fact and conclusions of law and amend them to delete the ACHD requirements for this property and to change the zoning to R-3.

M~TI~N CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #5. PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FOR ANNEXATION AND ZONING OF APPROXIMATELY ONE ACRE TO R-15 BY LARRY AND KAY HANSEN: Talsma: Mr. Mayor, I have a conflict in this also. Corrie: I will now open the public hearing. Larry Hansen, 9~5 ~/~ west Pine, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Hansen: We have the hope of starting a development on a portion of our property. Our property is an acre and it sits off of Pine and it is adjacent to the property that is owned by Lawrence Saunders. It is bordered by that property to the south and to the west. We also own a 40 foot wide driveway that is not part of this development. I have drawn up a preliminary rough draft of what (inaudible) and that would be provided that we had street access brought in by the development posed by Lawrence Saunders we would have a street possibly Idaho running from east to west across our property. That would provide the ability to have two lots and then we would proceed to build duplexes on those two lots. So the total density on our acre would be R-5. I would like to state that wen we applied for this zoning and annexation we went in and asked for R-8. It was Meridian City Council May ~, ~g~7 Page ~? ,., ti recommended by an employee of the City that we apply for R-15. It seems to me that R-15 has became a hard spat and an issue and it wasn't our intent to have that density. It was at the suggestion of the City. Even if we were to put tri-plexes on here we would have R-l ar a 7 units per acre density. This drawing I shaved also indicates our next Boar neighbors house and the fence line of his backyard. l have spoken with him about this development and he has no problem with this and suggested that he was in the hope that he could do a land swap with some land to the west of him because he is a pastor of the church and would like to increase his parking lot along Pine Street. Corrie: Any questions? Anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony? Vern AIleman, ~~ 01 East Ustick, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. AIleman: I own property at 84~ V11est Pine and appose the proposed R-~ 5. Maybe we have that salved in as much as he said he was willing to ga with a 5 instead af, which would came within the boundaries of the R-8 which l would support. So, the reason l don't want, or wouldn't support an Rw15 is because of the concerns that I expressed in Mr. Saunders which is the crime that type of development inaudible} impacts the city's need for police, parks, recreation facilities, plus traffic problems. Also there is a problem with providing for the educational needs. I support an R-g zone and I assume that there is no R-5 zone? So the eve would come within the boundaries of the R-8 inaudible}, With the single story duplexes and single story one family residence this would lend to the likelihood these types of dwellings would be largely owner occupied. And then I support a six foot steel chain link fence an the north side of this property. Corrie: Thank you Vern, anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony at this time? Council, any questions, discussion? Hearing Wane I will close the public hearing, questions of staff? Morrow: I would like to hear Gary and Shari's comments Mr. Mayor. Smith: I don't have any other comments besides what was submitted. Stiles: I have no comments in addition to those that I have already made. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, as a point of discussion, I guess from my perspective since we are holding on Mr. Saunders application to see a better defined plan and since the access to this property is contingent upon incorporation within that plan I would like to see that this is tabled until we see a good representation based an the Saunders application. think basically these two are going hand in hand and we need to have the same criteria for bath and we need to see haw they are integrated together. So it would be my recommendation that we table until this can be presented slang with a well defined Saunders plan and exactly how it fits in and access lines up. I certainly don't have a problem with the R-8 as opposed to R-~ 5. ~. Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 18 Bentley: Mr. Mayor, I would agree that these two items need to be tied together in some fashion and the R-~ is I think the zoning I think we need an this also. Rountree: I don't have anything more to add. Corrie: I will entertain a motion to that effect. Bentley: Mr. Mayor, I move we table the request far annexation and zoning of one acre by Larry Hansen until May ~0. Rountree: Second Carrie: Motion made by Mr. Bentley, second by Mr. Rountree to table the request for annexation and zoning, item 5 until May 20t~ meeting, any further discussion?

Roger Smith, 8?4 N. Linder Road, Suite B, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Smith: Mr. Mayor and Council members, I am representing this project which is essentially what you have before you. It is three professional office buildings which are an the southwest corner of Franklin and Eagle roads. This is intended to be a professional office use which is going to be a daytime strictly normal working hours 8 to 5 type operation. We have had severs! discussions with the Highway District which is probably our mast significant concern right now. Which have resulted in reshaping the usable area far the lot. The Highway District has come down an a resolution just in the last few weeks that and we finally had a final copy of that at the end of last week which is going to take an extra 43 feet an the west side of Eagle Road which will cut into our property which was not an option that was every previously discussed with the Highway District and the State transportation department. The highway district has also settled upon taking an additional ~4 feet on Franklin Raad side which has a taper. This all centers around a proposed urban interchange that is planned far that intersection and basically the ~D~ 5 budget. It is a significant distance in the future we feel we will be maintaining approximately l0 feet of landscaping between the building and the current edge of pavement on each side of the property for at least we consider to be approximately 2g years. To make this project as attractive as possible for the investors ~- Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 19 and we hope to be tenants in this building in the near future pending your approval. We want to make this thing look as nice as we can and tend to maintain this in a pretty attractive state of appearance. Additionally we have, and this kind of leads of to the probably a letter that you may have seen that addresses a variance request. If we need to ga back and submit additionally for the variance request to keep the process in order we will do, that. we feel that if we can get the project approved as drawn right now that it would be the mast expedient and efficient way to take care of the project. There are several other things that we feel that make this project attractive. UVe intend to extend sewer down Eagle Road from basically the current Texaco the Jacksons intersection there at Magic View Drive to the corner of Franklin and Eagle. We will also be extending water from the current Franklin and Eagle intersection along the frontage which is over 550 feet, ether than now that the Highway District has settled on the requirements we don't really have any issue with any of those. ~111e will be putting sidewalk and a berm, we will have a significant landscape area as I said. It should, we will provide what we think is more than adequate parking. There is significant design appeal we feel to the building that we proposed with the split face masonry block glass block for some privacy far the properties to the south and some slightly reflective glass it is a blue with a gray split face masonry block to make this as attractive as we can. Subject to your questions ar comments that is all l have. Rountree: l have a question, just for point of information, it doesn't have a Iot of bearing per se on the annexation, Do you have an elevation of the buildings proposed. Smith: UVe submitted that during the planning and zoning meetings. These are two story buildings but they are daylight basement. Tv further explain the concept since you don't have an elevation view and we don't have one of the rear view. The three buildings, the two outside buildings, the ones, as you face the plan on your right and left hand sides the smaller of the buildings will be inaudible} the smaller of the buildings are both two story. They have basements that will be, the lower floors of them will essentially be completely into the hillside, From the street side where will only be one story visible of those buildings. From the back side it will give it a grade change along the side of the building that will come down from the back side you will see a two story building. The main building will be, the corner building will be a two story building with a completely buried basement which will have parking under it. Sa that building from the street will appear to be, kind of the staggered two story that you see on that elevation. For your information Mr. Mayor, the pronunciation is A'a. Corrie: Anybody else from the public that would like to issue any testimony an A'a LLC? Hearing Wane, ~auncil, any questions or discussion? I will close the public hearing. Bentley: l would like to hear if the staff has any comments an this project. Meridian City Council May B, ~ 997 Page ZD Smith: From the public works department standpoint the sewer is available or can be extended to serve the project. Vvater is in Eagle Road an the east side that can serve the project. I guess that is about the only comments that I would have. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, point of clarification, it is on the east side of Eagle Road which would mean boring under Eagle road to hook to this parcel. Smith: Yes that is correct. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, l have a question for Shari, this letter that was in our boxes tonight apparently with ACHD and ITD having additional right of way requirements. It talks a little bit about the landscaping issue. I know that when we have been dealing proposed projects by Eagle Partnership Limited comes to mind we were talking a consistent 35 faa# landscape entrance corridor to the City requirement. If I am understanding this letter correctly they are asking for at build out a lesser amount of landscaped area then the 35 feet. Stiles: That is correct, they are asking fora 2d foot setback from ultimate right of way, ~inaudible~ the intersection is built out. Marrow: So at that point in time their landscaping would be ~g feet instead of 35. Mr. Mayor, 1 have a question for counselor, the issue before us tonight with respect to the landscaping did require a variance in a separate application is that correct? Crookston: That is correct. Marrow: So it is not really an issue with respect to the annexation or zoning? Crookston: Not if a variance is requested. Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Cauncil, the variance they would be requesting would be on the setback requirements in the LO zone not the landscape requirement. Morrow: But that is not park of tonight's issue before us. If we, that would have to be a separate application and we would make the decision at that time whether we were going to grant a variance far the setbacks or nat. Stiles: I believe sa. Smith: Mr. Mayor, I need to issue a correction on a statement I made, the water service will come off of Franklin Road rather than Eagle, it would not require boring under Eagle Road. Marrow: l have no further questions. l ~. Meridian City Council May 6,199 Page 21 Carrie: I will entertain a motion an the annexation and zoning.

Roger Smith, 8?`o North Linder Road, Suite B, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Smith; Mr. Mayor and Council members, I request that the previous testimony I offered regarding the annexation and zoning of the parcel at Franklin and Eagle Roads the southwest corner be entered into the record. I really have nothing additional to add far the conditional use. Mr. Smith's indication of the that the water is in Franklin Road is correct. It has been stubbed across from that east side and we will be able to extend that main down along Franklin Road without creating a disruption of traffic ar any more than is necessary on Eagle. Subject to your questions that is all l have. Corrie: Is there anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony on the conditional use permit? Mike Howell, 3136 Springwoad Drive, Meridian was sworn by the City Attorney. Howell; I am one of those neighbors referred to in the findings that is south of that property that will be impacted by the two story structure. I would just like to say that the overall concept of the project is very pleasing to us as a neighborhood or at least tv me and those neighbors with whom I have spoken, Vile think that they are doing their hest to minimize the impact on us who would be bordering right up to their back property. The concern I have at this point is with the conditional use permit I think it is a little premature in that we don't have specific elevations, we don't have specific land plans, we don't have specific impacts on what that ~ story is going to do and how it is going to affect our backyards. ! am concerned that the recommendations that were made by Planning and Zoning are followed through such that the impact is minimized far those of us who will be abutting the property and therefore I think until further plans are developed that will actually firm up the conditional use permit I would be apposed to the issuance of a conditional use permit such that you can maintain the control to make sure that thane safeguards are put into place to protect the adjacent property owners. Thank you Corrie: Thank you Mr. Howell, anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony at this time. is there anything you would Tike to say? Smith: Roger Smith, concerning the desire to ensure that there will be minimizing impact on them we have made the offer to each of those neighbors at a neighborhood meeting that we would attempt to place landscaping coordinating that effort with them to avoid blocking out their views but while still providing them some of the privacy that they would want. Vile know that this center structure being two stories tall and right on the Meridian City Council May 6,1991 Page ~3 corner will have some impact at least on what views the neighbors have and we understand their concerns about having a business next to a residence, Vlre are going to and subject to their desire we will attempt to survey in the areas behind their homes and based on having an approved plan and continuing from that point, not wanting to expend the time, effort and money to knave all of this before we had an approved project. we held off on making that extend of a ~Inaudibie}. The, we feel we have a working design that is essentially what we plan to do and without paying extra money to have a detailed landscape plan or additional architectural inaudible} to show elevations of each building and including topography we elected not to go that far at this paint. As I said we will try to work with them as much as we can to police things in such as way that it would be benef vial to bath of us. Corrie: Council, comments? Marrow: Mr. Mayor, I guess I would have one comment from Mr. Smith is that in fairly recent conditional uses and annexations and zonings we have required where there was an issue in terms of protecting a residential we have required very detail plans as part of the conditions of approval or as part of the conditional use. Your project based an the elevations is a very pleasing Ivoking project. I think that from my perspective that is the procedure that we have developed for a goad Gause. Particularly where there is a buffer between residential uses and commercial or industrial ar whatever the case may be. So I would see from my perspective that those landscape plans ought in fact be part of the presentation in the public forum and in terms of if it is approved as a commitment on the part of you the developer, us the City and the City Council. So that those inaudible} I think #hat is an inaudible}. Smith: I think I understand your concern and we felt that we had shown signif cant landscaping and locations on our plan views. Vlle did perform site topography to show an accurate representation of the plan view we are showing the areas where we are going to have landscaping and part of what I guess our concern has been is we would prefer to work with them inaudible} no one expressed significant concern about additional details, we were never asked. And having had met with them no one asked for additional information at that time we felt that we provided the information that was asked for. Corrie: Any further comments? Rountree: Just a comment ~inaudibie} are you then indicating that we continue the hearing and ask for at least detailed drawings, plans whatever on the back portion, the abutting portion of this property? Morrow: Yes Mr. Rountree I am, I think the issue is that makes us consistent with projects we have most recently done within the last couple of inaudible} in fairness if we continue the public hearing for that presentation by Mr. Smith and his group and that Meridian City Council May ~, ~ 997 Page ~4 the neighbors have an an record shot at what it is that is being proposed. Sa it works bath ways, if the commitment is such tv the Council an his design and the neighbors have had their fair say or their fair shot at it that can be painted out in the future if somebody does object. By the same taken, the neighbors wilt have the protection of having a plan that is put before them so I think that it aught to be done in the public forum. Bentley: If it is a little more palatable to Mr. Smith, I too agree that the design of the plan you have does Iook good and you are speaking of the way you want to use the brick and the glass to make it aesthetically pleasing sounds goad. But I too would go along with the fact that we do need to protect the additional zones and the buffering. Carrie: Mr. Smith, what time table would you need for that? Smith: Mr. Mayor, I would have to contact our architect and find out what his time frame would be. It would, it is difficult far me to say right now. we would probably be able to have something available for the next Council meeting. One I guess item of concern I have is if it is only from Mr. Howell's perspective far the back portion of his view as it affects him or if it is from basically each of the six neighbors viewpoints that we produce those elevations. The question is how far da we ga. Carrie: I understand your thoughts, the Council is the one you are going to have to ask that question too. I think Mr. Marrow may address that. Morrow; I will answer that, the issue Mr. Smith is that we as the City Council on the public record would like to see your presentation of haw you visualize the back of your entire space to be landscaped. Then the option is there for every member of the public to come and have some input. If only Mr. Howell shows up and expresses his approval of disapproval that is something that the Council will take into consideration. Essentially you are making the presentation to us as a Council an record sa that we know what it is we are buying also on the citizens behalf. Basically it is just another step that in the construction of your project you are going to be doing. You are just showing us very early in the process so you are making the commitment, or you are spending the money earlier than you planned but it is money well spent. Does that help you. Smith:lNe can provide rear elevations.

Pat Tealey,lo9 S. 4#" Street, Boise, was sworn by the City Attorney. Tealey; I don't know where you want me to start on this one, whether it just be the annexation that we are going to listen to right now. Are you going to separate these? This application was originally made in 1995, almost 2 ~~~ years ago and we have been going through this process for some 2 ~/ years and finally we have gotten to City Council. Planning and Zoning an March 11~" voted unanimously to prepare Endings of fact and conclusions of law to support an annexation of this property. The property in question is adjacent to and abutting the present city limits of the City of Meridian. The property which is subject to this application is within the area of impact to the City of Meridian and the entire parcel is also included in the Meridian urban service planning area. The property is designated in the Meridian Comprehensive Plan as single family residential. All services can be provided to this parcel as a condition of this annexation. Ube are requesting an R~4 zone which is consistent with the zone in the immediate area. Are there any questions about the annexation i would be glad to answer them, Carrie: Council, any questions? Anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony at this time? Vern Apeman, 2141 East Ustick, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Apeman: I don't know which one I am supposed to be testifying under, sa I guess I can go ahead and give it anyway. As a matter of clari~catian, the plat shawl the irrigation district is Settlers Irrigation District. How can this be when Nampa Meridian delivers this water and bills the irrigation taxes. I am concerned about my irrigation which comes through the Packard No. 2 property according to plat dated April 1991. l don't find the map showing where this would cross the Packard property nor any of the specifications such as size of pipe, grade, placement of manholes and sa forth. I specifically request that as a condition of approval of the plat that this information be Shawn and a specific time be mandated between October 15 and March 15 as a time for construction of the !: Meridian City Council May 6,1991 Page 26 irriga#ion system to our property. I went through this with another development where the system was not completed on time and my crops suffered because ofi the lack of irrigation. Another experience I had with the development was where the developer was to install the system with specific requirements. They tried to cover the system befiare we had a chance to inspect it and if we had not been an tap ofi this it would have been installed improperly. Because ofi this I specifically request that myself and Nampa Meridian plus the City Engineer examine and approve this installation during installation. Undoubtedly you will remember the problems that were created with water on the property around Dan Bryan's and the Fred Meyer property which I understand is due to improper installation. As you know livestock and children are not compatible sa therefore I also feel that, wait I will ga back. It is my understanding that my irrigation system should be shown for future reference in case there is a question of easement. UIlithou# this I request a recorded easement so that there won't be problems if it is necessary to assess property if there is difficulty with the irrigation system. As you know there is, livestock and children are not compatible. I also specifically request the installation of a six foot high chain link fence an the north side of Packard No. ~ and the south side of our property so as that to keep children and dogs from crossing over to our property where we have livestock. Also, that there be a fence between Packard and our property to the west which I understand is a requirement of the City. That is my testimony, do you have any questions? Rountree: Mr. Alleman, a lot of your concerns are probably mare appropriate for the plat. Da you have any particular issues with the annexation of this parcel into the City of Meridian? Alleman: well, as fang as they meet the requirements I guess l don't. Corrie: Anyone else that would like to issue testimony on the annexation and zoning? Dale Sharp, 4445 Wingate Lane, Meridian was sworn by the City Attorney. Sharp: I also would like to have the developer state here as to what is going to happen as Mr. Morrow pointed out we need this on record so that as time goes an we tend to forget or intentionally forget what is going to happen. I would also like to read a statement from our attorney as far as the private road so there is no question about that. They are going to, they say they are going to provide service across that private Road called Wingate Lane. That is an agreement, it has been in effect since 1913, As such that private road will maintain a private road. The Ada County Highway District has made same statements that they really have no legal right to do. which affects this private road. I would like to read this. In reference to the issue as to whether or not the private road should be construed as a public road it appears evident that there is no statutory basis pursuant to Idaho Code Section 40-~4~ and relevant Idaho case law including Cox vs. Cox S4 Idaho 513373 p ~~'~, 9~9, 196, to support the idea that the proposed crossroad being proposed to be built across the private road would in any way I' Meridian City Council May 8,1997 Page ~?' satisfy the test for being a public road so that unless the County Qf Highway District undertook some affirmative action to declare the road a public and ar record same as a public road in compliance with such statutes. Your private road ~inaudible~ based upon the facts as represented to me it appears that there is no satisfaction of statutory or criteria to declare the private road a public road in any respect of the current I just want to paint this out, that in case they cross with the utilities ar sewer or whatever that there is no access with pedestrians or bicyclists or any other unauthorized people, There is a question of liability here and with all of that additional traffic. So we would request that this Vllingate Lane protected from this traffic and so forth, And that there be no public road across it. And such, we need fences and as far as that goes we need a gate across the Nampa Meridian irrigation District road there. That can be done, l have talked to Bill Henson from Nampa Meridian and they said they would be willing to work with the developer tv do that. There is some question on that with the Planning and Zoning but I have checked it out. So we also unfortunately when w<e are talking about zoning of Packard Subdivision No. 2 the Brown, this gets back to Packard Subdivision No. 1 because Packard Subdivision No, 1 was approved that they would have a lift station. Now they are saying we are going to move that lift station over to this property by the Brawn's. So this in effect might make Packard Subdivision No. 1 null and void because you don't have a lift station there anymore. So you can't separate these. The irrigation that we have, I have a ditch that goes down on the side of my property that feeds in behind the subdivision to the west of me and then services people over in Locust Grave. I also have a lateral that goes on the east side of my property that goes dawn through the Brown, past F~eichert's and Brawn's subdivision and services Alleman. So we need these, we need to have this stated that they will the that and take care of that in accordance as Mr. Alleman painted out, As far as having construction workers or equipment on Wingate Lane we don't want that tv happen. That is a private lane and it is collectively agreed an by those land owners that it will remain a private lane. If there is sewer that crosses that private lane ar any utilities we don't want be impeded to getting to Ustick to our hoes by any means or services. Mail service or inaudible} if that is going to be lane it has to be done so that we are not inconvenienced. Then also I mentioned here that there is a lot of livestock out there and we da need these fences, we need the barriers that would prevent refuse and people from getting onto our property which this does happen. fight now people throw their grass clippings over the fence onto my property. They have taken rocks, they have dumped their cement trucks aver there when they were building and I just don't appreciate that at all. So, when we, I am emotional about this and I do object to the zoning of Packard Subdivision No. 2. I don't think we need it, I think there is plenty of houses available and this growth, so called growth I don't think it is good for our services that you are providing now. Qur schools are overly impacted as it is. Gur traffic on Locust Grove, they are not going to do anything about that and that is a mess, It is going to put more traffic out onto Locust Grove and as far as the sewer system or the lift station as Mr. Smith pointed out in the Planning and Zoning meeting last time that if they put a lift station in there they can't develop the whole subdivision because it want service. Sa [think we need to get our ducks in a raw here and state exactly what is (,, Meridian city Council May 6, ~ 99~ Page 28 going to be done and not this changing of every time we come there is a change and there are sa many questions, legal questions and everything else that I am opposed to it? Corrie: Thank you Mr. Sharp, any questions? Anyone else from the public that would like to testify at this time? Dixie Roberts, 2555 Wingate Lane, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Roberts; I also have all of these concerns the restroam have voiced. Mainly the irrigation my concern. The land is worthless without and I don't want it changed. l don't want the pump system put in. This is set up for the irrigation that I have now which is the regular flaw irrigation. Also the Lane is up concern to me . It is a private lane, we have maintained it, we have put money in, al! of us, an the lane far the maintenance of it to take care of it. We don't want other people accessing into the fare. Also there is concern of children, I have livestock also. My land is closer would be closer to the subdivision. There is concern there far their safety. one other item, my son tried to buy an acre ar less than 5 acres from me to build and then the developer tames in and sells his different areas, right adjacent to me and less than 5 acres. I don't know haw that happen we were, they would not less us do it. Planning and zoning, so I am apposed this . AI Dauven, 2520 N. Wingate Lane, Meridian, was sworn by the city Attorney.. Dauven: Well I kind of live kitty corner from this property and he stated it is all R~4 out there. I don't know haw it can be R~ on the east and north sides of this property they are 5 acre properties. It will go from R-~ an the south and west side of it but when you divide #hat property up you had better make the lots a little bit bigger wen it comes to the 5 acre parcel or else don't annex it. I think you are biting off mere than it is worth. Yau are going to put a bunch of lower income houses in there with a Iot of kids. We have horses at our place and I will not responsibility. I will bring my attorney and he says that if you guys approve it without certain conditions and stuff that we. agree to that you are putting this city at jeopardy to those lawsuits. Because the south slough goes through my property and you guys aren't providing for parks in that area. You don't have one in a four mile square out there. So let's say they are putting ~5 houses on this 35 acres many kids are they going to put in an R~4 residential zone. We have f ve acres sitting there with a nice stream running through it. We have 5 to 8 horses running around out there in that 5 acres, you can put three or four kids out there and I am not going to be responsible. You don't know what a horse is going to do, you don't know what any animal is going to do. They could just as well charge that kid and trample them right over or do anything, This is something that this board has to take into consideration ar~d they have to think about it. If they are putting a subdivision right along side that isn't R-4. I will agree with you we are in your impact zone area whatever and sooner or later I know the slough carries the sewer line and somebody has got to come ~'. Meridian City Council May 8,1997 Page ~9 and talk to us which everybody kind of neglects to do when you get drawn into one of these things, You guys have got a nice green path drawn right across my property which I don't agree with. Have you ever talked to me about it, you have no right to put that on that map. You haven't bought that property, l haven't agreed to nothing. So, these things you better start straightening out with this Council. Your P & Z is nathing but a joke, I mean you have guys an there going to sleep when you are stating stuff and they just ignore the facts. These are things that have to be considered into this. Sure there is R-4 housing like I said you have a subdivision, you got all of the inaudible} sure that is R~4 and they abutted basically vacant land that was just being farmed, there was no livestock on it sa there was no question there. But now yvu are abutting people's land that have livestock. So does the City want to be responsible far putting a jillion hauses up against something that has livestock in there. lam kind of in agreement with the rest of them. l don't see how they could have said off the Brown house from that 35 acres when it is only like ~~~ acre. How did they sell off the Borup house which is less than ~/ acre off the ~ ~ acres. These are things that have to be addressed and everybody runs and hides from them. They sure won't let me split na lend off my property. It would be probably 4inaudible}. These things have to be taken care of and there has to be some consideration far us people that lived there far a long time. They are impacting my life, they are impacting me I am not impacting them. They are making a profit by impacting me. So it should be done the way that people want it done. You can't put little stray Iots around 5 acre parcels and build a bunch of $8D,g0o to $90,09 hauses and put 4 or 5 kids in them. Those ~ or 5 kids aren't watched very well and they are running all over and they are all over everybody's property and they are down in the slaugh.l~lle already had an instance here earlier #his year that the canal ditch rider was telling me about and it was a good thing the father was there. A little three year old just about drawn in the ditch right of way right above us where we get our water. If the dad wouldn't have been there and been right on top of it he would have drown. Things like that you don't hear about because they don't get in the newspaper because nobody has called because the dad took care of it all. One instance is too much, I guess is what 1 am saying. I am a Meridian businessman so I like the impact. It provides business for me and revenue and stuff but I want it dune according to Hoyle. That is about all I have to say about it. Carrie: Anybody else? Billy Jo Premae, 394 Wingate Lane, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Premoe: l would just like to go on record as being opposed to this as well. Our quality of life will change if this subdivision is approved. Vile have lived out there for 14 years and we are probably one of the newcomers on the black. we really appreciate the way of life we have and when we bought on a private lane we were assured that there would be no more building on it. That everything is agricultural around and I know things are changing. The majority of us that are out there would like to keep it the way it is and would beg your consideration of our needs. !~ { Meridian City Council May 6,199 Page 30 Currie: Anyone else that would like to issue testimony an this at this time? Mark Peterson, 2100 Wingate, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Peterson: I too want to go on record as opposing the subdivision. We are going to be adjacent on two sides to the new subdivision. We too have livestock and we just seem to have enough buffer zone I guess between that kind of density of housing and kids and I ivestock that we da. I want to emphasize if it does go through that they cannot have access to the lane where they plan on abutting the road into our Wingate Lane. It is very easy to put in a simple little barricade and we all know haw easy it is to take the kids bicycle or walk right around something like that and go ride down the lane. I am not sure that they have shown us the proper kind of barricade that they are going to use in that area. That is all I have to say. Corrie: Anyone else? Dan Brian, 2070 N. Locust Grove Raad, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Brian: Good evening Mr. Mayor and Councilmen, I have two concerns with this development actually. My number one cancers is what directly affects me and it is traffic. Mr. Sharp hit on it a little bit about what a mess Locust Grove Raad is. If I don't leave my house before 7:00 in the morning I can't get out an the street, it is just bumper to bumper all day long. Going through, in your packet you have the Ada County District traffic study or the results from what they did on the findings when this frst went through dated October 1995 when it went to Commission. They have they determined that this subdivision would generate about 950 additional trips per day of vehicles down Locust Grove Road. At that time the traffic count on Locust Grave Road they have on your sheet that was made January 1994 and that was over 3 years ago when that was done. They had a traffic count of 2794 and as of October 2, 199G which is 6 months ago or more, the vehicles per day on Locust Grove was 10,026 so there is a substantial difference and what they have looked as far as a study far this development and what is really there. I guess my question would be is there a new traffic study out and if so where is all of the new information and haw do they ar you get the information to digest so you make a prudent decision on this, I know your argument is that you don't have anything to do with roads it is up to Ada County Highway to keep up with our growkh. But, in checking with Ada County, the projected construction date of Locust Grave widening is 2001. Sa, here we are building all these new subdivisions and dumping all of this traffic out on the road and making it a mess and there is nothing going to be done until 2001, If it doesn't get bumped anymore. Obviously everything gets bumped but it paints a pretty bad picture. I just wanted to paint that out and see if there were any other studies done as far as traffic congestion and what they have came up with and haw that would affect the new plat that we are going through three years later. My second concern is the same concern that all of the folks on Wingate Lane have that is fencing Meridian City Council May 6, ~ 99l Page 3 ~ and livestock. I have been here before talking to you guys about this. But we need to take a real serious look at the separation of rural, agricultural land with livestock and the residential land that is coming into the valley. I have first hand experience with that with my horses, all of these people on Wingate Lane are horse people and there is going to have to be a separation between the people and the horses that they can't go through, climb aver, go under. It is a problem because like what was stated before children and horses and adults, I have problems with adults. They all think that I have the first petting zoo behind Fred Meyers. I had to put up signs and fences and I had people make special trips down there to take pictures of them, they had never seen horses before. That is fine but it is like a magnet. They came from Fred Meyer and they make the loop by the horses and then dawn to Locust Grave. In your approval of the plat or annexation or whatever we need to look at a good separation between those animals. Something that is going to work, and I think a fence, a solid fence that they can't ga through or get over is the best way to do that. As far as the water concerns, I think you all know where stand on that so I won't go into that. Any questions? Thank you Floyd Reichert, X516 Wingate Lane, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Reichert: I would like to go on record as probably the only one an the lane that is in favor of the annexation into the City and building the houses. My property is adjoined to the east by the old Kirkpatrick property and Brown's on the north side. Everybody's concerns could probably be met like I say with the irrigation being tiled, ditches being tiled, I could probably ga into a lot of history an the lane. !came home from Vietnam in 1968 I bought my property and there were only four houses on the lane. I had a very difficult time getting a building permit due to the easement. I finally had to go to Frank Church. our Senator and got my building permit. Since then an the and I was given a deed with a private road easement an it, 15 feet that bordered the east side. But ail the houses that these people are concerned about they have Bane down and approved everybody else out there but now they are denying the people that have in my opinion the access to the lane. But my concern out there isn't the children I have sold off my livestock, haven't had any far years. I have a problem with the neighbors livestock getting out and ripping up my flower beds and yard and everything that they don't keep them in. I could go on and on about that but [really think if you look at the community's interest of a whole i think this is a well worth pra~ect to take part of that congested traffic off of the Fairview, Eagle Road, Locust Grove because it is a mess getting down the lane. Trying to get out an the road that 15 feet the ingress and egress is a problem and always has been. But the traffic vn Ustick is so bad now it will only get worse. It should be for the access ar an easement through that mile section to eliminate some of that troll c going through the session instead of ever it. As far as the utilities, we have power and telephone and everything comes down it and for some of the houses out there they have came down Wingate Lane and buried natural gas line down there so there is public utilities that lay in the right of way of Wingate Lane. That is all I have to say if you have any questions. I l Meridian City Council May ~, ~g~7 Page 32 Corrie: Any further testimony at this time? Helen Sharp, 2445 Wingate Lane, Meridian, was sworn by the City Attorney. Sharp: Mayer and Councilman going along with something that was brought up quite conclusively was the ordinances and thanks to Mr. Morrow we should abide by them. We have been told that there is a buffer zone and this buffer zone is where we are living an Wingate Lane between Ada County and Meridian. As a resident on Wingate Lane I would like to see that continue so therefore I am apposing this zone change. Going along with ordinances Mrs. Kirkpatrick had asked and her husband, tv cut off one acre and their little house because it was becoming too much to take care of. The ~ 2 acres which now has been including with the 20 acres, ~2 an one side of the lane and ~2 appra~imately an the other side of the lane. So the properties are not together, they are separated ~by this private lane. Kirkpatrick's were not allowed to cut off because of this buffer zone so they could not do as they chose and had to sell it all. I realize that comprehensive plans are created and every time something is rezoned it is changed. My question to you then is why would a few people be allowed to change at the expense of those that don't want it. Does anyone pursue the passibility of asking the people in the area are they interested in changing ar would they like it the way they are. Gn the Garner of this property or section there is a big farm, next to that is a church. At the opposite corner of that on Locust Grove and Ustick there are ZD acres that are farm land and this gentleman does not propose to sell ar have it developed. We have five acres and we have been there since X968 with the idea that you cannot break it off. Gn the property where Edmonds inaudible} and Castle now own the 22 acres and that is on record there has been a break off since Mr. Aller~an bought it from Mr. Cooper. It is something that if we have an ordinance do we abide by it or da we have the person who has the loudest voice being a developer get what he wants, We are talking about lift stations and I see an your agenda tonight you are going to have to do same approving of bidding or that they are an your agenda. Why would the City of Meridian if we are gong to Inaudible} want to put in lift stations. Did they ask the developers whether or not there was going to be sewer accessible to this property. And why not make them wait. tither people have had to wait to get what they want to do what they want but developers can ga in and dot ask they dust choose to do. I am having a little problem with that. We are talking about grouvth and we all know that we are getting tremendous growth not only in Meridian but the entire valley. I think here again we could use it with a little bit mare planning. I think that dust to develop far the sake of developing is not the answer either, As far as fencing in animals you know when you are living out in the country as much as you want to fence in an animal they do at times get out. And not always going where you want them to go. I don't knave if you gentlemen here have seen them but I had submitted some pictures of our lane and the area showing you dust what it is. I think it is kind of nice to have something different rather than one mass mess of houses. In talking to the realtors we have an abundance of houses right now. Not only vacancies of those have already been built an the new owner ones that they are trying to sell but that does not include that that are already an the black to be built. That ~, Meridian City Council May 5,199 Page 33 was aver SD4 houses that are vacant at this time. So at this point in time l am saying there is no demand far housing, I am saying in time maybe there will be and maybe at that time we would be willing to say okay fne take our five acres and let's develop it. don't see it at this time. we don't abide other things either, we have a manhole that is supposed to be foe feet Pram the propert~r is on the property line. who's is going to check these things that they are taken care of. The don't. I think another thing who is responsible for notifying potential buyers that they are on a lift station meaning that they are going to have a monthly or quarterly charge on that. And if the sewer should came through and hopefully it will a lift station as we are told is a temporary set up. They will then have to connect as the young couple that were here should they try to sell they would have to hook up, they ware within 3Q0 feet. Speaking of 505 feet, does that mean l will have to hoar up t the sewer my property or our property right there at the end of wingate Lane and we could be within that jurisdiction also. Sa I am looking out far my interests naturally. we have been there since 1955 when they had all of these so called ordinances and somehow someone calls along and a whim changes them. Nobody is asked, nobody cares it is let's go for it. So I am saying please at least inaudible} City Engineer. He tried to tell Planning and Zoning they didn't have everything ready far the sewer and they didn't, but it was passed onto you guys with the idea of pick that up and decide what needs to be done. Thank you, by the way Mr. and Mrs, Premoe tried to build 24 by 4U chap an their property and were told they couldn't because they haven't got foe acres. That is not because they are annexed either, they have less than 5 acres and they are not all 5 there we have to admit to that. Vile as a private lane are supposed tv have four houses on the lane and we all know there are many more than that. But if a developer can rezone and build why can't they build a shop on their property. Thank you Currie: Anyone else from the public that would like to issue testimony's Are there same questions that you would like to answer at this time. Tealey: I guess the sensitive issue is as you can tell here wingate Lane. we propose no access to Wingate Lane whatsoever from this subdivision. VUe own the lane, the developers owns the ground underneath wingate lane and these people have an easement for access. They don't, so there is no break in the land between the Brown and the Borup property. I don't know exactly how to ga through this but I guess l can start by each person that offered testimony. VVe will have a development agreement that states many of the concerns that people have such as fence and irrigation issues. we will fence the entire property as part of the subdivision. As the phases are approved and built we will provide for irrigation delivery to each parcel that is serviced through the ditch that goes through our property, we will pipe it and w~ will provide an easement for that pipe in the plat that we record on each phase. Wingate Lane will remain private, there is as I stated na access from this subdivision to wingate. There was same mention of the Ada County Highway District traffic study. we conferred with them just two months ago. What they told us is we don't need a new traffic study, they have same updated f gores. These figures that were supplied as part of our traffic study did not ~. Meridian City Council May 6,1991 Page 34 change. They had some updated traffic figures and that the leve} of service for surrounding roads of Eagle and Locust Grave wii! not suffer as part of this as part of their studies. These are not our studies they are their studies. Sa of this commuter traffic or course wil} be converted. From going onto Lacust Grave through the building of Hickory which i~ a collector road that will end out in the middle of the subdivision. Again i am getting into the subdivision issues. I don't know if you want me to address them now ar wait until the subdivision camel up. Vllhich da you prefer? Corrie: I was going to say if you have it as testimony go ahead and address and we wi II take it as park of the ~inaudible~. Tea}ey: Mr, Al~eman a}}uded to the irrigation and the problems that he has had with developers in the past. Again wil} sign a development agreement guaranteeing him access to his irrigation and we will provide easements through the p}ats as we build them. The construction time table we have already agreed to that in the findings of fact for the annexation provides for that concern. End of Tape} Some of the problems that are happening with Lacust Grove and Ustick and surrounding roads each of these lots that wi}I be built on will provide impact fees to actua}ly construct improvements an these roads to improve the traffic. I guess other than that, if you have any questions which I am sure you do I wau}d be glad to answer them. There may be same other things that came up as part of it. Carrie; Council, any questions at this time? Questions of staff? Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I have questions with in terms of Gary, a }etter from you to Pat Tea}ey dated April 9,1991. It talked about issues with respect and I am quoting here, cif there are plans to move the lift station in Packard Na. 1 to a site in the proposed Packard No. ~, as Ted Sigmant mentioned to me this morning, then things need to move very quickly as there is a Pre~construction meeting for Packard No. 1 scheduled for tomorrow which includes the canstruction of the lift site. Also, Shari Stiles indicated that Packard No. ~ parcels of the property within the boundaries of the proposed Packard No. 2 subdivision inaudible} have the proposals annexed into the city as part of the Packard Na. 2 annexation and toning request. I guess my issue is you bring us up for your part bring us up to speed an the sewer issues and the lift station issues and all of that as it relates to this subdivision. Smith: Qn April the ~5#~ I believe it was I received some prints from Tealey's Land Surveying, their engineer David Marks and on the prints he outlined the revised }ocatian of a lift station to the northwest carnet of Packard Subdivision Na. ~ from the northwest corner of Packard No. 1. This would necessitate the installation of some 8 inch diameter line from the northwest corner of Packard No. 1 to that point. The sewage then from Na. 1 and the proposed No. ~ and the proposed elementary school site to the east of Packard No.1 would flow to the northwest corner of the proposed Packard No. ~ and be pumped into Chamberlain Estates Subdivision which would then gravity flaw into Meridian City Council May 0,199' Page 35 the south slough that has been built. That is what they called option ~, the option 1 that shows on that plan is to crass Vern Alleman's property with a gravity sewer interceptor line which is an extension of the south slough. The developer's have been in conversation with the Mr. Alleman over the past several years concerning an easement. Mr. Alleman has offered to them to discuss the easement subject to I think about 19 different conditions. Which he outlined to them in written farm and I received a cagy of those conditions from Mr. Tealey for my file. At this paint Mr. Alleman has not consented to an easement far a gravity sewer line. However, I have talked to Mr. Alleman as late as yesterday and I don't think that there is an insurmountable situation with getting an easement across his property and eliminating the lift station. However, there are two proposals on the table far sewering the property. Now part of that sewer line, the gravity sewer line to the lift station in the northwest carnet of the proposed no. ~ Packard Subdivision is less than the minimum grade far an S inch sewer line. There is about 1580 feet of line that would be at 3110 percent slope. Mr. Marks from Tealey's land surveying said this grade could be increased by raising the elevation of the sewer line in Packard No. 1. I don't know to what extend but there is apparently an option to increase the grade of that sewer. I don't think it is a significant problem, he has estimated the velocities in that those lengths of 3110 percent sewer at about 1 ~/~ feet per second which is slightly less than the 2 feet per second minimum that we looked far in an S inch line. But, it Iooks like we are going to be faced with something less than 4110 percent even if the lift station isn't there. Those details need to be worked out however. The one positive paint of the lift station being relocated from Packard Na.1 to Packard No. ~ is that they will be pumping into the service area far the south slough. In Packard No.1 they were pumping into another service area that isn't the drainage area for the subdivision. So it does put the sewage in the south slaugh drainage basin. I think that is about the mast current information on the sewage system. Morrow: So at this point it is safe to say we don't haw the sewage is going to be handled is that correct? Smith: Well, it is not a detailed resolution, but I think there are two alternatives on the board both of which are doable. one would require the agreement of an adjacent property owner far an easement. I don't think that is an insurmountable situation but again it resolves itself dawn to negotiations between the developer and Mr. Alleman. The other is the installation of a lift station and again that is from an engineering standpoint it is possible. Now l haven't seen any detailed details of what happens in Packard No. 1 as apposed to what has been approved and what is under construction at this paint. I am assuming that they are able to tie onto what is being built in Packard Na. 1 and extend it to the north and west to get the northwest corner of proposed subdivision No. ~. Morrow: Thank you, Shari, you comments with respect to the authorization by the two parcel owners? Meridian City Council May 5,1997 Page 35 Stiles: Councilman Morrow, Mayor and Council, we have received same notarized consents from those property owners since the last meeting. !don't know if you have those in your packet but we did receive them and have thane in our files. Marrow: So that issue has been resolved, how about written response to, your letter of November 13, 1995. did you receive written response to those 1l issues that you raised at that paint in time? I guess the other thing is that is long enough to go maybe we didn't have a policy in place at the time that we needed written responses. Stiles: I guess I would use your response earlier, if it was before ~inaudible~ Tealey: We did provide her with response to those 17. If you want (inaudible) Corrie: Gary, I had one question, I am still a little confused here, the lift station in option 1 they would be permanent lift stations in option 1 or temporary? Smith: Na sir they would be an interim lift station correct. Morrow: If it is okay with you, l would like to see him present your map of the lift station ~inaudible3. Tealey: I apologize for the audience not being able to see this but I am sure they have all looked at this plat many times and it is fairly easy to understand. Fight now down ins this area is Packard Na. 1, it has a lift station in this, an approved temporary lift station right now in this position. This is Packard No. ~ if this Packard No. ~ is approved and annexed and the preliminary plat approved we will move the lift station from here dawn to here. This right in here is the south slough. This over here is the last manhole an the south slough. This is Mr, Alleman's ground, there is ~3a feet in here between this manhole and our ground. If we were to get an easement which is our option number 1 across here we would dust gravity flow this sewer into the south slough and do away with all of the lift stations. If we can't come to agreement with Mr. Alleman we propose moving this lift station to here and being temporary until either Mr. Alleman sells his land or develops it himself or the City gains some type of easement to where the south slough sewer interceptor can be built. At that time this lift station will be eliminated and this system flows to the gravity sewer for the south slough interceptor. This 4D acres as stated is Packard No. 1, over here to the east is the new elementary school that will be serviced by the sewer through this subdivision and eventually get into the south slough. Are there any questions? Morrow: I have one, the sewer issue with respect to velocity that Mr. Smith raised, your solution to that. Are you in fact raising the elevation of the sewer in Packard No.1 ? Tealey: We can still da that, we haven't started construction vn the sewer yet. We have had apre-construction meeting. When we first proposed Packard No. 1 we kept the r. Meridian City Council May ~, ~ 997 Page 37 sewer s~ that we had an ample cover of what would be aver in the southeast corner. vVe can raise that a little bit in order to give us the sewer flaws and velocities that will be needed to get into the south slough. As Mr. Smith stated our velocity is in the 8 inch sewer are just a little under what are needed to make it flaw. It will flow but not at the velocity, there will be mare maintenance involved in it then a sewer line at 4I~ ~ percent. vile can alleviate that problem by bring the sewer up in Packard No. ~ . As I stated we are waiting to stark that construction until we see if we have a project here an this parcel of ground. The sewer in Packard Na. 1 was not only far us but it was far the school district that we kept it up as law as we could. Marrow: Let me ask you this if it is raised to facilitate the gravity slough does that include the school district being able inaudible}. Tealey: Na, all it does is possible remove the little bit of safety margin that you would typically have. Some flexibility in where the school was placed an the site or haw height it was ar haw much fill was put an the site far the school. Bentley: I have a questiar~ far Gary, is flow of Packard Na.1 and ~ into the south slough the desirable area of where we want it to go ta? Smith: Councilman Bentley yes it is, that is where it is supposed to flaw the south slough. Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Council l am unable to find in my packet any response to any of my comments that I made November ~ 3, ~ 995. Sharp: (Inaudible) Rountree: Mr. Mayor, a question far Mr. Tealey, l don't remember hearing it but have you and your clients reviewed the findings of fact and conclusions of law as prepared by the Planning and Zoning Commission? They are pretty extensive and there are a lot of conditions ire you in general agreement with those. Tealey: Yes, I will find, like I said there is a lot of papenn~ark in the file. I have seen my comments back to her, I will provide them to her, I know we have addressed them, I know we addressed Mr. Freckletan's comments and they should be in that same general area. Marrow: Mr. Mayor, I have a question far the counselor, is there any testimony or substantial testimony change that would merit new findings? Crookston: i think that there is in relationship to the sewer particularly and then with regard to same of the comments made about vVingate Lane. `,: t Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 38 Carrie: Any further comment then? l will close the public hearing at this point. Bentley: Mr. Mayor, I feel we have had significant changes in these findings of fact and some issues that aren't totally covered as Councilman Morrow and the attorney have spoken out against. I am uncomfortable with the ones we have, I would lime to make a motion far the attorney to prepare new findings of fact and conclusions of law. Morrow. Second Corrie: Motion made by Mr. Bentley, second by Mr. Morrow that we have the City Attorney prepare new findings of fact and conclusions of law, discussion? Rountree: Mr. Mayor, I guess just a paint of clarification far me where those differences appear in the Endings. Bentley: I don't feel that the Wingate Lane the private lane has been properly addressed. The issue of fencing needs to be addressed and the changes in the lift station still need to be addressed. Morrow: I am in concurrence with that, l think that in my notes the private lane, the fencing and the irrigation and particularly the sequencing of the fencing and those types of things have not been adequately addressed. I think the testimony tonight by the overwhelming majority of the public is in respect to the buffering or the isolation of the two uses that are not campatib#e. Historically the Council has been very adamant about having non-combustible continuous fencing in place prior to any development efforts the full length of the bander between agricultural uses and residential uses. i think those issues are not adequately addressed in these findings of fact and conclusions. I think we need to address those items to bring some sense of consistency to the actions that we have taken in the past. Most recently with respect to Kachina Estates and the Goldsmith Salmon Rapids. So I think that is a policy that has evolved because of problems that we have had in the City in the past between agricultural and residential uses, It could easily be that within a short period of time all of those properties get sold for residential uses. In the interim those folk have some right to assurance that the residential usage is not going to negatively impact the livestock issues. It is real easy far construction debris to kill an animal and that ~inaudible~. So those were the issues that take exception with the current findings and i think tonight's testimony reflects a very well founded concern about those issues. Rountree: Just a question in my mind how the sewer would be addressed given the options that we have, address bath? Marrow: I think we have to, I think we have to have an retard that there are only two acceptable solutions and in fairness to the developer and his team they need to knave f Meridian City Council May ~,199~ Page 39 r, those acceptable solutions are. Our City staff needs to knew what parameters they have to it in. Then they can take it from there and work at the solution. Tolsma: I have a question also, (inaudible) is it up to us to decide how they cross Wingate Lane or who crosses Wingate Lane or if Wingate Lane is a private lane (inaudible) Crookston: I hope that it doesn't go to court but it is up to the developer to decide how to da that. It also has tv be in agreement what is best fior the City's sewer system. So there are some issues there that still need to be worked out. Tolsma: (Inaudible) Corrie: Any further discussion, all those in favor? Opposed? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #9: PUBLIC HEARING: REQUEST FORA PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR PACKARD SUBDIVISION N0. 2 BY PNE/EDMONDS CONSTRUCTION: Corrie: I will open the public hearing, we are going to end up tabling it. Tealey: It is best we have it at the May 20th meeting Crookston: You are going to table this and continue it to May 20t"? Corrie: well we have a public hearing scheduled we still have to have the public hearing and then we can table it and continue the public hearing. Anyone else from the public's Vern Apeman, 2870 E.

M " n this is not a ublic hearing but would you come up and please? Corrte. Da , p some li ht on this I came to Planning and Zoning meeting and I Brun. Let me shed g 't Council meetin and I went through all of the phases as you well know. came to the C i y g That brou ht this issue u and that is where the issue came from. It was I was the one g p ens of Dave Meadows and Avest and all of the problems we had moving during the m d nabod Lakin care of the ditches and dirty ditches. I tried to get a the ditches an y g the develo er to bu everything at once. So we will avoid all that commitment from p rY bases 1 ike doin the f rst phase and I don't know when second or problems of doing p g an bases the have or when it is gong to be. Sa I test~f ed to that fact at third or haw m y p Y tannin and Zonin or the City Council they asked the developer ~f he that time at the P g g with that and he said no he did not. Now whether that was his had a problem or whose I don't know. But he agreed to do that at that time and that misunderstanding into the records. Then ! have a copy of the minutes of thane proceedings is how it came statin that he nodded his head and said yes, it is stating that the stating ~t is not g d on the conditions set forth from the staff to burying the ditches all at Council move ce at the onset of construction. That is where that came initiated from. on You had another issue to with the access to some kind of diversion structure Rountree. or check box. ~. Meridian City Council May 6,199 Page 42 Brian: The access, they have the road designed to the head gate they are taking care of that part if they have the same plat that I looked at. Morrow Don, may I ask a question when was that the date of that, was that in 1995 ar ~ 996? Brian: The meeting, July ~ a, ~ 996. Morrow: I guess my question is that obviously there has been no construction on this site are the ditches being maintained now so that those of you that use water have access to the water? Brian: They have buried the ditch in phase one, they have gone thraugh phase one and buried the ditch. what is left apes, I haven't been out there since the last Council meeting or Planning and Zoning meeting but I went out there prior to the water coming into the ditch and it had not been cleaned, I think it might have been buried behind there. l don't know what the condition. I get my water, I get mare water now then I ever have before. l have good access tv the irrigation. Ullhat I am concerned about is future and they have approached me and wanted me to change my delivery, my water delivery downstream to a different head gate which would eliminate that long run of my lateral coming dawn to feed me. I talked to the developers and also Dan UVoods of Kearney Meadows and he explained to me what was going on. I feel that I do not want to change my water delivery because then it would go thraugh the pressurized irrigation system set up for thane three subdivisions. Sa I would be coming out of the overflow from the Sao pressurised households operating off of that system, Nobody !talked to knew anything about that system and I need to talk to Bill Henson with Nampa Meridian Irrigation to find out about that system. I haven't contacted him yet but l just don't like the idea of going through there on a peak watering day when everybody is pumping out inaudible} do I have left to water with. l feel !need to have my own source where it is has been for all of the years. So I don't think that is a viable option of going to a different head gate because of the fact that ten years down the road it may not be suffice, not so much in the near future but in the distant future. But that is where that all transpired and so when I came down to the City Hall after they buried the ditch and pointed out that they agreed to da the whole thing that is when this whole thing started and has gotten to this point. Rountree: Did you say you think it has all been buried at this point in time at least the delivery system? Brian: No it hasn't been all buried, it has been all tiled just at phase one but I don't know haw far they went from phase. I have a section of ditch, Pat can tell you more about this but I have a section of ditch that they have tiled and then there is an open area and then there is existing underground tiling of something that happened in the past and then it is Meridian City Gouncil May 5,1991 Page 4~ open again. So it is spotty and I don't know how much additional footage they have to bury to complete the whose thing. Mr. Tealey probably knows all of that information. Do you have anymore questions? Tealey: There was definitely some confusion if that is what came out of Mr. Brian's testimony. We did not, I did not agree to it, I don't think I was the one that was present at the meeting I think it was Mr. Ted Hutchinson. I can't imagine him saying that we will ga and the all the ditches for you, that would be a great idea. We will file the ditches as the phases are completed. Don gets his water now and as he said he gets more water than he can use, We have buried the first part of the ditch same l99 feet in the frst phase. As we construct the next phases we will file the ditch as it goes by the phases. If he wants us to go out and clean the ditches we will go out and clean the ditches. I don't believe there is any interruption and we don't propose any interruption of his water to his properky. I know we would hear the next day or probably the same day if anything did happen if anything did plug the pipe. I know the communication is open sa if that is the case we will definitely deal with it. As you know this was quite a tough situation when Fred Meyer, Avest, Dove Meadows and Wingate and all of us gat together and finally got that situation salved. But that again isn't part of what we are talking about. What we are trying to da is to amend that condition to read as it goes by the phases not the whole 4D acres. That was certainly our intention when this came up. Shari was saying, I don't know where to find those comments in the record. Maybe if Don has a copy of them I can see them. Gorrie: Council, I guess you can either address it now or address it in your findings. Marrow: I don't think this applies to findings. I think the issue here in my mind is that is it an honest mistake that was made, it doesn't matter I guess who made it. The paint is that the requirement was there that all staff conditions be met and so the issue that we have to decide is that whether we as a Council want to make a change from what was originally approved. Crookston: Might I add a comment, I am not aware of whether it is in the f ndings or not. It could be, the original f ndings an Packard No. 1. If the statement was made on July 1 D, 1996 I really don't see how that would be involved on the findings an the annexation. Inaudible} of which there are na findings an plats. I think that the findings on that annexation were done in 1994 or 1995. It could very well be in the minutes and hopefully it is. Carrie; Well it is somewhere an the Jufy 15t~, minutes, Brian; June 29,1995 was my testimony. Crookston; What was the date that you mentioned about July 10,1995? (~,,.. 1 Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 44 Brian: That was the final plat for Packard No. 1 and Mr. Teaiey's comments on the, Mr. Tealey said okay, and we are willing to accept that condition of approval. The other one would be the piping of the ditches around the perimeter of the 40 acres. 1Ne are proposing and we always have proposed and if there is any misunderstanding than this is exactly what it was. That we will pipe the ditches as we develop the phase. it is just economically infeasible to pipe every ditch on a 40 acre site let alone proposing to the develop the first five or six acres. Then we went on to Mr. Morrow said that "Mr. Mayor I move that we approve the f nal plat for Packard Subdivision No. 1 subject to alI staff conditions and it was seconded by Mr. Rountree, Motion Carried -All Yea, And that is how it came about. Inaudible} they approved the motion to staff conditions not, they didn't eliminate that staff conditions. Marrow: So Shari help us here was the staff candition, where does the staff condition come that all of the this was to be tiled at the same time. Did we have that in writing someplace? Or was that based on prior testimony inaudible} wasn't agreed to by Mr. Tealey. Stiles: Councilman Morrow, Mayor and Council that was my understanding of what had taken place in the prior hearings. That was in my staff comments an the final plat to make that a requirement that they do that. Tealey: It was Mr. Hutchinson up here talking and Mr. Sigmont that was sitting right there and nodding his head and saying yes. In order to take care of this maybe I can make a proposal as to (End of Tape) Carrie: Do you want to state what you would like for us to du and then we can decide. Tealey: I would recommend to you gentlemen that maybe we can eliminate this problem and proceed with other city business by setting a time limit. May I suggest 1 ~ months to do the entire piping of the ditches in phasing. Rountree: Are you talking about all of the ditches? Tealey: That pertain to me, the laterals that pertain to me. Currie: Do we know if we have any other people that are involved in ditches Tealey: And they promise to keep them clean. Morrow: So Pat haw many lineal feet of ditch that remains to be tiled? Tealey: About a ~/4 mile 1320 feet. Morrow: Does that spread aver 2 or ~ phases? 1 4 Meridian City Council May 6,1997 Page 45 Tealey: (Inaudible) Morrow: Inaudible} I guess from my perspective I don't know that in phasing that it is reasonable to expect Don that four phases will be Bane in a space of a year, phasing is motivated by sales. I think the issue is clearly there is some confusion as to what needs to be done or what the intent was to do on the part of the developer. What the intent was to do as our staff had believed the development folk had agreed to. So the issue here in my mind is that probably it is fair to have the development irrigation done in phases subject to those phases or subject to the ditch being clean and serviceable. If it becomes non-serviceable then at that paint in time have same sort or caveat that kicks in and says you will file all the ditches because you failed in keeping them clean. So, I think that is the point I have for discussion from my perspective, Bentley: Mr. Mayor, I would agree with that solution but I would like to point out to Mr. Tealey even though you say and Don has said he has more water than he has had in a Iong time, everybody in the Valley has mare water than they have had in a long time because of the fact that they are pumping the river so high. The optimum thing here is that he keeps his getting a good flow of water through this whale construction phase. Corrie: Anybody else want to comment at this point before you make a decision? Shari? Stiles: Mr. Mayor and Council the development agreement for Packard Na. 1 has not even been drafted yet so we can easily include that language in the development agreement. Corrie: Does that meet with the Council's approval then? If it does I have tv have a motion. Morrow: It has tv be a motion to incorporate it within it, but I think it certainly meets with the criteria that it be in writing so that everybody understands what it is they are agreeing to this time. Corrie: When would that development agreement come to hand? Tealey: (Inaudible) Carrie: Sa we do have it then. Stiles: We received a very rough draft that basically had no conditions in it. Basically it was using our master document that had just vague lines. Corrie: Who has it now? ~r r! Meridian City Council May 6, 199 Page 4~ Stiles: The City has it, Corrie: Maybe Pat you need to get there and make sure we get everything together and make sure the attorney can do it as soon as we can. Tealey: That was my understanding we gave to them with the conditions that we got out of the findings of fact. My direct statement to the Planning staff was is there anything in here that you want extra you put it in and we'll get it drafted and get it back to you and get it signed. Crookston: That is something that Wayne and I need to sit down and go over. Carrie: I will entertain a motion. Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I would move that we remove from the final plat approval of Packard Na. 1 the requirement far ail ditches to be tiled prior to construction of each phase and insert in their language that says the ditches can be covered with each phase being constructed unless there is an obstruction in the water and the ditches are not clean and kept clean so that the downstream user can use the water unimpeded if that happens then the requirement would be to fife ail the ditches at that paint in time. That determination would be made by the Mayor and Council in a public meeting. Rountree: Second Carrie: Motion made by Mr. Marrow, second by Mr. Rountree in reference to the tiling of ditches, any further discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor? apposed? M~TI~N CARRIED: All Yea ITEM #11: STEPHEN MADER: APPEAL DECISIaN BY FENCE VARIANCE COMMITTEE: Carrie: How should we proceed here, 2539 S. Bayou Bar is my residence, I have been there since October. I was aware of the fence requirements upon moving in, my realty had given me a sheet that the City hands out here. f saw there was a 2g foot setback off the curb, I was aware of that. My wife had talked to my neighbor behind me his name is Bab Gaehner, he had told her that he received a variance permit from the City to put his fence at 14 feet from the curb. So I came down and got the information for applying for this variance permit and at the time I asked the gal do I have to pay far this upfront and she said you have to pay whether you win or lase. I said what are my chances here. At that paint she mentioned the variance committee was pretty much balding at 1 g feet back of the curb fine. Based on my neighbor and based an that information I pretty much plan on, I got the application and paid the $5g, at that paint I was turned down. ,,.. ti Meridian City council May 6, ~ 99l Page 4l They said, apparently they had turned down Mr. Gaehner and I guess he got approval from the Council here toga ahead and leave his fence where it was. I guess what I am asking far is the same consideration and the same equity that Mr. Gaehner received. It doesn't sit very well with me that one person could put his fence up not in compliance with the ordinance then they can turn around and tell me that I can't do the same thing. I guess what I am asking, I don't know if there is a legal grounds here or what. vllhat am asking here is far the same consideration. Carrie: Is your fence up now? Mader: Na it is nvt, I have sprinkler lines pulled in, I was waiting for the variance permit assuming I would get it. If I don't get the permit I would have to move two sprinkler lines five feet over from where they are now currently. Bentley: Mr. Mayor, my question is what is the need to move your fence closer to the street? Mader: Basically i am just trying to get as much backyard in my fence as possible. i was looking at the neighbors and I was basically trying to mirror what he had done. If I push the fence over 5 more feet as the variance committee proposed that is about it is 500 feet of lawn that I lose that basically is useless tome. Carrie: Gary can you give us some help here on, I guess Chief you are both on that fence committee is that correct? ~auntree: I am too. Corrie: Gan you guys give us some information? Smith: Mr. Mayor, Council members, as Mr. Mader indicated the praperky to the west ofi him or across the Nine Mile Drain, Mr. Gaehner, constructed a fence 6 foot high wooden fence within the side street setback fvr his home. He was subsequently red tagged for that and was requested to came before the fence variance committee. The fence variance committee turned dawn his request to keep his fence located within that setback area. He brought that appeal before you folks and you agreed to let him keep his fence where it is, where it was built. The property line in the subdivision an E. Time done way is at the back afi the sidewalk. The sidewalk is in a public right of way as the planter strip is as the curb and gutter is. Mr. Mader found a property pin apparently at the back of curb which was placed by someone other than a surveyor. But the property line is at the back of sidewalk, his edge of the sidewalk. The fence variance committee has steadfastly as much as possible maintained no more than a ~ 0 foot encroachment into the side street setback for these B foot fences. INe do that for 2 reasons, one is the pedestrian traffic on the sidewalks and two is the ability of vehicles travelling in the streets to see dawn the street and onto the property, particularly for children that dart ~.. Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 48 out from driveways, that dart out into the street from other locations that could be hidden by a 6 foot fence from the vehicular traffic. Typically carnet fats have a less than attractive backyard because they are faced with a setback on their frontage and on their side street and they have to when they conform to that setback with their fencing it puts a crunch an their backyard because the corner lots do not have a requirement for mare square footage than an interior lat. So I guess that is why we are sympathetic and that is why the variance committee was formed because got so many requests far these corner lots to encroach into the side street setbacks. This particular yard I guess it is all relative as to how much yard is a big back yard. The older you get the smaller the back yards can be. But anyway, we just decided as the committee that met and talked to Mr. Mader that we were going to regardless of what happened with Mr. Gaehner we were going to maintain our ~ g foot setback requirement off of the property line far this proposal. If I left anything out Councilman Rountree. Rountree; No you did an excellent fob of summarizing the process and what happened specifically. Mader: I guess if I could make a few comments in regard to that. l guess I don't really believe the size of my backyard as far as being a criteria for whether I can get the approval or not that is really not a factor. Smith: That is right and that is why I said it was relative. Mader: As far as the safety issue, I am proposing ~ feet from the back of sidewalk, Mr. Goehner received 4 feet from the back of the curb. So at that paint he is definitely meeting the safety criteria, I would meet it mare than he would. As far as anybody running out from this fence the only people that might do that would be people from my driveway. You can see that the fence line pretty much runs the whale length of Time Zane from my house to Mr. Goehner's house. My fence line, it is probably 65 to lp feet from S. Bayou Bar so there is definitely not a visibility issue coming around the corner, I made sure of that fact when I applied. Rountree: when we look at these things and Gary is right in that we look at access from pedestrians, we look at site distance and we also Iook at aesthetics, we also soak at the fact that it is a variance to City ordinance and the City ordinance says it is a ~D foot setback. 1n order to approve an ordinance we have to be looking at same hardship, Gften times the lack of a back yard being the case is considered a hardship on the part of the owner. which helps support the variance, even in this particular case even with the ordinance setback there is still a sizable backyard, Mader: I throw out to that as far as hardship I have already $175 in pulling my irrigation pipe. I did help the person that did that. If I have to move my fence I have a minimum charge of $100 to have my pipe re-pulled 5 feet away. ~,, Meridian City Council May ~, ~ 99l Page 49 Bentley: Mr. Mayar, if I may address that, that is true that you are going to have an additional expense there but you also stated you knew going in what the fence ordinance was. ~a if you took it upon yourself to shorten up your irrigation system planning that this thing would go through than that is an expense that you incurred on your on. Mader: That is true but I also took upon precedence of Mr. Goehner my neighbor who told my wife that he had received a variance permit. It turns out what he received was approval from you the Council I guess. ~o I guess I would ask Mr. Crookston what is the legal precedence there and what is my, what is the resolution here. Either he pulls his fence dawn or mine goes up I guess is the way it seems to me. It is all ar Wane is the way I see it. Crookston: There is no precedence an a variance, it all. goes from one application to another application. Mader: The same thing with a City Council ruling I guess? Rountree: Gur ruling of the variance. Crookston: It depends on what action was taken. Mader: I guess I would ask for mare justif cation of why his was allowed, why he was allowed to keep his fence up. His backyard is the same width of mine, there is no difference there. Crookston: The only thing I can see in listening to this is that you are on a corner lat. Mader: Sa is he, he is on the corner of Time Zone and it is River Downs now, it used to be called Mr. Tink, it is a culdesac lane that goes in. It is the exact same situation as near as I can tell. Morrow. Mr. Mayor, I have a question for either the Chief or Gary or Charlie is that was not that fence in place and was not (inaudible) the hardship was the removal of the fence? Gordon: Mr. Mayar and Council, if memory serves me correct, there was also a problem there with he came in and talked to somebody here why told him it was not a problem and go ahead and put it in. There was same confusion that I don't think we were able to satisfy to the Council that he was not given same wrong information prior to installing his fence. And the fence had been there for a year I guess end one of the neighbors had complained about the fence and that is what braughf it to the fence committee. Yes the fence was already in but it was my understanding that he understood that there was Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 50 not a problem there. This is that area that has a sidewalk and a planter strip and a curb and I think that was part of the confusion, Corrie: Council any questions? Mader: If it makes a difference the fact that the development fence itself is maybe 2 feet itself off the back of the sidewalk. I guess somehow they were allowed to da that and there is na safety concern there I guess. Sa we have my neighbor at 4 feet, development fence a rod iron fence at 2 feet yet I can't ga 5 feet. Rountree:1111e11 actually you can ga a Iot closer if you want an open fence like the rod iron fence. Mader: According to my covenants I have to go with a wood fence. Rountree: According to your covenants you can't do what you are proposing. Mader: That is true, put that on the same grounds Mr. Goehner was aware of the same covenants as well and on the same grounds he should have been denied then. Corrie: The covenants are going to be taken care by the homeowners association not us. Mader: That is correct, I am dust saying that is not an issue here it wasn't an issue then and it shouldn't be now. Bentley: Mr. Mayor, in order to take care of this issue. I fail to see that we have brought forth anything to warrant a change ar warrant serving the variance from the current building code, Sa I am going to move that we deny the variance requested on this fence. Rountree: Second Marrow: question, I guess the question is Mr. Bentley are you moving to deny the appeal of the variance? Bentley: That is correct. Corrie: Any further discussion? All those in favor of the motion to deny the appeal? Opposed? MOTIQN CARRIED: All Yea Mader: Can I get a copy of the minutes, how do I do that? r{; L Meridian City Councii May 6, 1991 Page 51 Carrie: Sure, just came to the City Hali, it will probably take, well if you want approved minutes then it will be the next City Councii meeting May 2g~~.

Usemco was the apparent law however they had same irregularities with their bid and we do not feel that they meet the specifications because of these irregularities, Subsequently are recommendation from Public works is to authorize or to recommend award of the bid for the sewage pump station procurement to Pacific Equipment.

Meridian City Council May 6,1997 Page 56 Bentley: vVe da have the four people already picked from the different departments. we have, we are still Packing the two locals. Morrow: So all we need to do tonight is adopt the ordinance. Corrie: You can't adopt the ordinance Berg: I would really recommend that you don't unless it was on the agenda. Bentley: It is not on the agenda but the only corrections we had to make was to add the Chief of Police and it has been added. So if we could have this ready to go the next time with a number. Corrie: vlle can do that and by that time I will have the two citizens. Bentley: I mentioned this before Ada County is putting an emergency moratorium on for cellular towers. That is something we need to be thinking about so we can maybe come up with some kind of guidelines on our own Morrow: Glenn if I remember right weren't you supposed to present to the Council tonight a motion to do that. In our planning session we discussed at least two of us were in agreement that we ought to come together with same consistency with Ada County with the other ~ or 3 cities that are involved in this same issue and throw in together. Bentley: I will make a motion that we get together with the other entities involved this with sv we can all be on the same page with these cellular towers. Rountree: Becond Currie: Motion made by Mr. Bentley, second by Mr. Rountree on the motion as stated, let's get this one more time. Bentley: I would move that the City of Meridian join in the moratorium on ordinances for the cellular telephone towers, go into a joint agreement with the entities that are pursuing this. Crookston: Are you talking about meeting with them and then make a decision about whether or not you are going to adopt a moratorium? Bentley: No, I want to see us have the moratorium and meet with them and put guidelines together with what they are doing with their plans far the placement of these towers. Crookston: Bo do you want a moratorium ordinance prepared'? Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 57 Bentley: Yes, that is what we need. Marrow: So your motion is to instruct the City Attorney to prepare a moratorium for the cellular phone towers until such time as there is a coordinated effort between the City of Meridian, Ada County, City of Boise, Kuna and Eagle. Bentley: That is what I said. Rountree: I will second it again. Corrie: Motion by Mr. Bentley, second by Mr. Rountree, all those in favor? Dppased? MOTION CARRIED: All Yea Corrie: Anything else Glenn? Bentley: I passed out same excerpts of light duty assignments. I think we need to take a Look at having the department heads came up with what may be considered light duty assignments for our city employees along with guidelines, how long we want these light duty assignments to run, medical certification, I have some information on that I will make copies again and give everybody. I think it is something that we need to look at so that we maybe keep our people employed and have them save their sick time. There are some jabs that some people would be able to do rather than just sit around. I have a question on the Meridian City bond forfeiture policy that Mr. Schwartz brought before us. I have had a couple officers state to me with our discussions with him that he states that he interviews these people to find out and researches whether or not they have had previous bond forfeiture but the problem is the interview takes place eve minutes outside the court trial. So my question is how is he verifying that indeed these bond forfeitures have not been done before an these people. It is a question Wayne I think you have going to have to find out from him. Because I am uncomfortable if that is the way it is done. If they just sit outside the courtroom and no I have never had one and then they go in and give him one. How is he verifying this? Crookston: I do know that he has the capability of checking the records. Whether or not he does that before he meets with them or not I don't know and I will find out. Corrie: Gary, you have something else? Smith: Thank you Mr. Mayor and Council members, Janice had an item that she wanted me to give to you tonight she wasn't able to be here because of her daughters illness. But I wEli just pass it out t4 you and let you read through it. Corrie: Mr. Rountree? Meridian City Council May 6, 1997 Page 58 Rountree: i think you ail received sets of puns of the 95°/o complete Tully Park proposal. If you have any comments try to give those to Brad if you haven't already. i have asked Brad to look at phasing construction of that within or budget constraint to see if we can't, and it looks like we will be able to put something together for irrigation and grass this year, And maybe a little bit more, if anybody has a set of those plans just hanging around gathering dust 1 have a need for another set as apposed to making another copy. Morrow: (Inaudible) Rountree; We have to get something going an the Generations Park because I know you have a new set of plans from David on that. Corrie: Did you get them? Rountree: I haven't, he sent them directly to Walt. Corrie: I have another (inaudible) and I got something today on the fountain, all the schematics and everything and I need to go ahead and send a PO for that. So if you want to give me the approval to do the PO or I will do it (inaudible). Bentley: I have one other thing that is a cast saving factor an Tully, is when you ga around and make this curbing on tap of the sidewalk, the extruded curbing, if you do it with an extruded curbing machine rather than pouring it as part of the sidewalk you can cut the cast below half an that and I know a gentleman that is interested I the flat work and including the extruded curb that he would like to bid on. Rountree; Wayne, have you gotten anywhere with the agreement with Nampa Meridian, Bureau of Reclamation for the, you just happen to have something. Crookston: My notes from my discussion with Tim Burgess. Rountree: VI1e have tv get that done like I indicated and working with Tim and maybe Gary to get that accomplished real scan. That is in order to utilize the money far the Five Mile Drain greenbelt bike path. Will did you get that Statesman grant questionnaire filled out? Berg: (Inaudible} Rountree: Make sure that gets in Tammy's box. That is all I have got. Morrie: I just handed Mr. Talsma a request and he is kind of going over it.

The ULI panel identified a need for regional coordination regarding land use and infrastructure issues to ensure that o ulation and em to ent owth can p p p Yin gr continue tlarroughout Ada, and Canyon Counties without undermining the Region's high quality of life. This Institute, modeled, after the Ma ors Institute on Ci Desi ro y ty gn p gram established by the National Endowment for the Arts, is a first step towards establishing vanous methods and mechanisms far such re 'onai coordination. Institute activities will, span afour-day period and will include artici ation from vutuall all elected offs ' p p y cials in Ada and Canyon Counties. The first event will be an evenu~ forum g featcinriug a presentation by a respected authority on city design. Both elected officials and the public will be invited to attend the presentation, which wall be roceeded b a rivate p Y p reception for Institute participants only. This presentation will set the tone for the remainder of the working sessions, The following two days will be workin sessions for the Treasure g . Valley Mayors, one County Commissioner from each county, and an interdisci team . PAY of resource faculty. These sessions will be held in a retreat-like settin ,and will include an evenun workin m • ~ g g g eeting. Therefore, all of the local participants will be expected to spend the night at facilities provided by the Institute. ~n the fourth da ,the Ma ors and Coun y y ty Commissioners participating in the working sessions will give a resentation to the other p elected officials regarding their findings on principles for regional coordination and som e "next steps" towards implementing these principles. ISSUES TEAMS In January, members of the consultant team working with the City of Boise to coordinate the Institute interviewed mayors andlor stafif from six of the key cities in the Treasure Valle . These mayors were asked to identi the y fy mayor regional problems facing their community as a result of the region's recent rapid growth, as well as to provide some back ound on their ~' community's comprehensive plan. Based on these discussions, it is clear that there as consensus among the mayors as to which growth issues must be addressed regionally, as well as a strong commitment to seeking specific regional responses to these issues. The workin sessions will focus on and further defin f g . e our of these key issues, providing an opportunity to begin formulating a common understanding of ways to a roach solutions. Therefore Tr • • pp ,each ensure Valley participant will be assigned to one of four Issues Teams. Each Team will be responsible for making a 20-minute slide presentation about their issue followin a ~~-minute g presentation by a resource team member on the same subject. The Issues Yearns will receive specific assignments as to what they should include in their resentation. Followin the p g presentations, the entire group will participate in a roundtable discussion concludin with an g agreement about findings and possible "future next steps" to address this issue. The four Issue areas are; • Community Identity and Sense of Place • open Space and Recreation • Regional Growth Patterns • Land Use and Transportation Linlrages A discussion of each issue and the questions to be addressed b the Issues Yearns Y are attached below. woR~vG sEssror~ ovTCOI~s Approxunately four hours will be set aside at the end of the second da of workin ses i Y g sous to review the findings from each Issues discussion and to define overall outcomes from th e Institute. The Treasure Valley participants will then present these outcomes to other elect ed officials and the public the following day. Ties presentation is ex t4 last f . petted or approxunately one to two hours and will provide other Iocal officials with the framework of an agenda for addressing regional growth issues on a Tong-term basis. Clther follow-u actions may also result from the Institu p te, and appropriate roles and responsibilities for conducting these acctions will be identified by Institute participants. 2 PRELINIINARY WORKING SESSION AGENDA Da One 9:00 AM Introductions and Briefing 9:20 AM Introductory Presentation: Why Are We Here? 10:40 AM Issues Team: Resource Presentation 10:20 AM Issues Team; Elected Officials' Presentation 10;40 AM Issues Team: Round Table Discussion x2:00 AM Lunch 1:04 PM Issues Team: Resource Presentation 1:20 PM Issues Team: Elected officials' Presentation 1:40 PM Issues Team: Round Table Discussion 3:00 PM Break 3:20 PM Resource Presentation 3:40 PM Elected Officials' Presentation 4:00 PM Round Table Discussion 5:20 PM Break 6:30 PM Supper 5:00 PM Presentation by Resource Team Member Da Two 9:00 AM Issues Team: Resource Presentation 9:20 AM Issues Team: Elected Officials' Presentation 11:00 AM Summary Presentation: Where Do ~"e Go From Here? 12:00 PM Lunch 1:00 FM Discuss Conclusions and Presentation for the Following Day 4:00 PM Conclude 3 ISSUES TEAM 1: C~ TY IDENTITY AND SENSE ~F PLACE Issue Description Many rapidly growing communities where most development consists of residential subdivisions, begin to take on a placeless, undifferentiated character. Historic areas become marginalized, and most of the community's new residents have little or no sense of local history or tradition. As a result, these communities may begin to lose that special sense of "place" valued so highly by most people. Dver the Iong run, the loss of those elements that make a community 'f special" can begin, to undernvne the social and economic vitality that initially fostered growth. To prevent rapid growth from eventually choking vff a community from its awn identity and destroying Chase characteristics that axe most important to the quality of life for its residents, it is important to aclrnvwledge and find ways to preserve these elements. The first step towards being able to taking a proactive approach to preserving community character is the ability to recognize the unique elements within the community. These elements can be special buildings, a particulaz landscape, even local businesses, such as a cafe or coffee-shop, that foster natural and spontaneous social interactions. while most communities in the Treasure Valley still maintain, some sense of distinct identity, it is not clear what actions could be taken to ensure that these qualities can be both preserved and enhanced over the long-term. Assignment l . Identify two elements or characteristics from each community participating in the Treasure Valley Institute that help to define that community's unique character. These elements can be places that are important to daily community life, like a park, cafe, post office as well as unusual buildings, structures, or natural features. Take slides of each element. 2, Show a border or edge of each community to indicate how communities are separated for not, as the case maybe} from each other. Take slides of each community edge. 3. Find a way to show how any three communities in the Treasure Valley have changed over time. Use historic and current examples by taking slides of historic photos and slides of existing places. 4 ISSUES TEAM 2: gPEN SPACE AND RECREATIgN Issue Description Quality of life for many communities can be defined in teens of the quantity, quality and availability of open space and recrea~onal facilities. Typically, people use open space far unstructured activities like hildng, or just enjoying the view, while recreation facili~.es provide opportunities to play organi2ed sports like soccer or baseball. The Treasure Valley has a reputation of providing outstanding open space and recreation opportunities. Yet as growth continues to occur, preservation of open space is beaming an increasingly volatile issue. In this tune ~ of very rapid growth it has become virtually impossible for some communities to provide sufficient recreational opportunities far residents. As a result, people are limited in then ability to participate in sports teams andlor are having to seek out such activities in communities elsewhere. Assignment 1. Identify at least one significant open space resource in each community participating in the Treasure Valley Institute and show any existing trails or other systems for linking these open space resources together. Take slides of the open space resources, show these resources an a single map that also shows the linkages cif there are any}. The map can be photographed and turned into a slide for presentation purposes 2. Pick four open space resources, two from Canyon County and two from Ada County, that have been the subject of recent regulatory or public policy actions. Show slides of each resource. 3. Detern~ine haw many children's softball or soccer teams there are in each community pa~icipatuag in the Treasure Valley Institute and show how many t~earns exist for every 40 children between the ages of five and fifteen in that community. Create a graph showing teams per children by community. This graph can be photographed and turned into a slide for presentation purposes. Information to create this graph should be available from the 199 Census regarding the total number of children in each community between the ages of five and fifteen. Information about teams should be available from park and recreation departments as well as from private sports leagues.} 4. Determine how many adult softball tuns there are in each ammunity participating in the Treasure Valley Institute and show how many teams there are for every 54 adults. Create a graph shaving teams per adults by community. (Use the same source as above to collect this information.) 5 ISSUE TEAM 3: CU TY GROWTH PATTERNS Issue Description As regions grow, there is often an increasing unbalance between where housing is built, where jobs are generated, and the capacity to serve future development with adequate infrastructure, including sewer and water systems. Even within communities, there is a tendency to make land use plans that do not realistically reflect actual growth patterns of either the population or industry. For example, communities often create an oversupply of commercial land because future retail development could enhance the local tax base, but there is no real consideration given to whether the population in the area is sufficient to support such development. The Treasure Valley region communities understand the need for balanced land planning, but the recent growth surge bas made it difficult to see the larger picture of how new development is distributed across the ~ region. There has been no opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of how future growth could occur, especially in light of key infrastructure constraints such as sewer capacity. Assignment 1. Document the total population growth between 1950 and 1996of each community participating in the Treasure Valley Institute. Graph population increases by community in terms of both actual numbers and the percentage change over the time period. Find some way to shave the distntibutian of new population an a map of the region. Z. Document the total number of jobs each community participating in the Treasure Valley Institute has added between 1980 and I996. Graph employment increases by community in terms of bath actual numbers and the percentage change over time. Find some way to show the distribution of new jobs on a map of the region. 3. Determine the projected population and number of jobs in each community at buildout of the community's comprehensive plan. Graph the population and employment increases by community, and find some way to show the distribufion on a map of the region. 4. Determine existing sewer capacity by community and show how much more growth that community could accommodate, Also determine which communities have the ability to expand their existing sewer facilities, indicate what methods ~ will be used to finance this expansion, and indicate how much capacity could be added. Map sewage expansion capacity by community. 6 ISSUES TEAM 4; LAND USE AND TRANSPaRTATIGN LINKAGES Issue Description one of the most common issues facing communities experiencing rapid growth is increased traffic congestion and pressure for more and better transit service. This trend is fi~rther exacerbated in areas where patterns of land use are of relatively low density, and where large employment centers are located at great distances from new housing development. Transit becomes impractical because people are too spread out to support a functional system, and highways become increasingly congested. This leads to the deteriora~.an of other quality of life indicators, such as air quality. whale there is clear evidence that certain types of land use patterns do help to reverse the downward spiral of increased growth leading to more and more traffic congestion, it is sometimes dill cult to understand how to make the land useftransportation linkage a reality. Places like the Treasure Valley have not, historically, been large enough to support a comprehensive transit system, and most transportation improvements have been designed to resolve existing congestion problems without considerafion for how Iarger land use issues may compound or alleviate the problem. People in the Treasure Valley clearly recognize the need for better linkages between land use and transportation but also understand that, to date, there has been very little effort tQ connect these two important systems. Assignments 1. Find examples of bus stops or other transit nodes in each community participating in the Treasure Valley Institute. Determine how many times per day this stop is serviced by transit and where people can go from that particular stop. Take slides of each transit stop. 2. For each transit stop identified above, determne the daily ridership numbers; if actual numbers are not available, try to estimate ridership in terms of haw many people and some characteristic of these people, i.e., whether the riders are mostly kids going to school, older people, workers getting to fobs, etc. This information should be available from the transit providers, 3. Describe the land uses within aone-half mile radius of each transit stop. For residential development, determine the approximate numbers of dwelling units per acre. Far other types of uses, try to determine the approximate number of square feet. Compare the ridership numbers at each transit stop with the land use pattern to see if there is any pattern between density ~ the amount of development around the stop} and transit use, Graph this information if possible, and then take a slide of the graph. 4. Compare the 198 and 1991 census data to determine the average commute times for residents of each community participating in the Treasure Valley institute and then calculate 7 r the number of days with air quality alerts between ~ 950 and ~ 990 for for the years available}, Graph this information if possible, and then take a slide of the graph.
