Siddoway: Okay. Mr. Chairman, let me start over. I'm so ready for the next one I can
hardly tell you. All right.
Moe: Okay. Yes, sir.
Siddoway: Mr. Chairman, after considering all staff, applicant and public testimony, I
move to recommend approval to the City Council of file numbers RZ 07-018 and PP 07-
023, as presented in the staff report for the hearing date of January 3rd, 2008, with one
clarification that the portion of the Settler's Canal along McMillan Road west of Penning
Grove is not expected to be titled.. End of motion.
O'Brien: Second.
Moe: It's been moved and seconded to approve RZ 07-018 and PP 07-023,
Bridgetower Crossing Office. All those in favor say aye. Opposed same sign? The
motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Item 11: Public Hearing: RZ 07-022 Request for a Rezone of 7.37 acres from C-
G and R-4 to C-N zones and a Rezone of 5.88 acres from R-4 to L-O
zones for Bridgetower Crossing Commercial by Primeland
Development Group, LLC -east of North Ten Mile Road and south of
West McMillan Road:
Item 12: Public Hearing: PP 07-026 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 8
commercial lots and 1 other lot in the proposed C-N zone for Bridgetower
Crossing Commercial by Primeland Development Group, LLC -east of
North Ten Mile Road and south of West McMillan Road:
Moe: Now we are to --
Siddoway: Okay. Now we are to commercial.
Moe: At this time I'd like to open the Public Hearing RZ 07-022 and PP 07-026 for
Bridgetower Crossing Commercial and start with the staff report, please.
Parsons: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. The applications
before you tonight are a rezone of 3.25 acres from C-G, general commercial, and R-4,
medium low density residential, to C-N and L-O, limited office and preliminary plat
approval of nine lots consisting of eight commercial lots and one other lot for the
Bridgetower Crossing Commercial project. The site is located east of North Ten Mile
Road, approximately 400 feet south of North McMillan -- or West McMillan, excuse me,
Meridian Planning & Zoning

Road. The property is bordered on the north by the Bridgetower Marketplace, zoned C-
G. To the south is Bridgetower Crossing No. 2, zoned R-4, proposed for L-O. To the
west is the Voltera Subdivision, zoned C-G and L-O. And to the east is Bridgetower
Crossing No. 5 and 7, zoned R-4. The subject preliminary plat is a resubdivision of four
lots approved with Bridgetower Crossing No. 7. The commercial portion was
conceptually approved. and the office lots were granted as use exceptions for the
Bridgetower Crossing Subdivision and are currently zoned C-G and R-4 respectively.
The applicant is requesting -- is proposing to zone the land to match the land use and
match the existing commercial and office portion of the development with the city's
Comprehensive Plan. As part of the rezone the applicant has also requested the
existing C-G portion of the development, along with additional office parcel, to be
rezoned to C-N to allow for more diverse mix of retail and commercial uses in the area.
Staff believes this to be a good compromise between the two zoning districts and is
supportive of the applicant's request. In addition to the C-N zoning district -- in addition,
the C-N zoning district requires more stringent setbacks and requires the same amount
of buffering from the residential districts as the L-O zone. So, that I can step back here,
you can see here where one existing lot is zoned C-G -- currently zoned C-G and the
remainder of the three lots associated with the plat are zoned R-4, but approved for
office. So, what the applicant and what staff is in support of is rezoning these four lots
to C-N. In addition to the rezone request, this is currently called the Gallery Subdivision
and this is another lot within the Bridgetower Crossing Subdivision and those are., again,
zoned R-4, but are being rezoned L-O to be consistent with the city's Comprehensive
Plan.
Siddoway: Bill, I don't mean to interrupt, but are these additional lots remaining R-4?
Parsons: That is correct. Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Siddoway, the applicant no
longer owns those parcels and they have already -- I believe there is occupancy on
those.
Siddoway: Okay.
Parsons: The applicant is requesting approval of eight commercial lots and one other
lot. Access to this development will be provided from a total of five full access
driveways, two full access public streets, which are West Quintail Drive, an existing
street, and Capris Street, which will provide access to North Ten Mile, and one backage
road, Alba Avenue, providing access to and from the two other public streets. Two of
the proposed driveways will access onto Alba Avenue, two driveways will take access to
and from Capris Street and one driveway will access onto West Quintail Drive. All of
these driveways are expected to align with future public roadways and driveways.
Again, here is -- the applicant is proposing this new public street. This is, actually,
currently in its state it's a driveway to access the -- to access these approved lots. At
the time of this staff report staff did not receive ACHD comments, but I have been told
by the applicant that they are supportive of that request for that becoming a public street
Meridian Planning & Zoning
January 3, 2008
Page 48 of 59
and that will link to this existing street, which is Bell Tower Drive as well. Here is your
full access -- two full accesses here on Capris Street. One full access onto West
Quintail Drive. And., then, here are your two accesses onto Alba Drive. And this is,
again, the existing Gallery Subdivision and they have their access here onto Alba
Avenue, too, for additional connectivity. The entire perimeter landscaping along North
Ten Mile Road has been installed with the approval of Bridgetower Crossing No. 2 and
No. 7. The applicant has also installed the required landscape buffers where the
commercial uses adjoin the residential uses. As part of this application approval the
applicant will be responsible for installing and maintaining the ten foot landscape buffers
along West Quintail Drive, Capris Street and Alba Avenue. So, again, you can see the
dashed lines here showing you what's already been installed and what's out there and
what they are proposing to install. And., of course, condition to install. In addition to the
preliminary plat, the applicant has submitted three concept plans for how this site may
develop. Each concept plan shows three different scenarios depicting a variety of
commercial and office uses, such as an office supply store, a nursery, multi-tenant
retail, and personal and professional services on the site. It is important to note that
version two and three are similar in pad layout, however, the proposed parking for the
front three pads are located adjacent to Ten Mile Road and in version three the
proposed buildings are fronting along Ten Mile with their parking in the rear of the
buildings. The submitted plat shows eight buildable lots. The submitted concept plan
shows a range from two buildings pads to seven building pads in square footages
ranging of 2,500 square feet to 33,725 square feet. Because the applicant does not
have a clear vision for how this site is to develop, staff is limiting the development not to
exceed 80,260 total square feet of nonresidential uses on this site. Again, this is 25
percent of the gross area of the land. This is well below the allowed nonresidential
square footage located in a mixed use neighborhood land use designation. Staff is
generally supportive of the concept plans, but believes version three is a better concept
plan based on the configuration of the proposed buildings on the site and its location to
the surrounding residential neighborhoods. Staff is recommending the applicant
combine concept one and three, allowing a larger retail box north of Capris Street and
transition to a smaller neighborhood retail south of Capris Street. If these changes are
made staff is supportive of the concept development. So, here is the three concept
plans that were submitted with this application. Again, here is where the applicant is
proposing two building sites and these are the two similar concept plans. What staff
was recommending is allow this -- this type of development to occur north of Capris
Street and kind of move this section over here to kind of transition from the C-G to C-N
to less intensity and to the L-O Gallery Subdivision to the south of that site. So, we
think that would provide a good transitioning area from C-G down to that L-O zone that
we are talking to in between West Quintail and Bell Tower Drive. I won't bore you with
the elevation details, but, again, this is similar to the Verona and the Bridgetower
Crossing Office. Again, the same elements, the same criteria that's being proposed in
that DA are also being proposed with this development. With that, that concludes my
presentation and, then, I'll stand for any questions.

Moe: Okay. Thank you very much. Any questions of staff?
O'Brien: I have none.
Siddoway: Just one. The staff report says that no ACRD comments have been
received. Do we anticipate some coming? We don't usually forward them onto City
Council until we have received the report.
Parsons: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, Commissioner Siddoway, I
spoke with. the applicant, they just received the staff report from ACHD. I have also
been in contact with several phone calls and a-mails trying to get that staff report and I
was told that the -- the planner working that project was on vacation. So, we have not
received that. But I -- once I receive that, that will definitely be inserted in with the staff
report for Council review.
Siddoway: Okay.
Moe: Okay. Would the applicant like to come forward.
Steckline: Actually, Mr. Chair, Commissioners, if I could also add something.
Moe: Yes, sir.
Steckline: When you're making your motion, staff made a typo in condition 2.2, if you
could strike the portion where it says the applicant shall be responsible to install two
water connections from North Locust Road due to fire flow requirements, Public Works
would be very happy with you.
Christensen: We would be really happy about that, too.
Moe: Okay.
Christensen: My name is still Chuck Christensen.
Moe: Change your address yet?
Christensen: No. My address is still 1904 West Overland Road in Boise and still work
for Quadrant Consulting and all the conditions look great for us. Once, again, we do
have a little bit of a clarification on the tiling of the ditches. There is a -- if we turn to the
-- the White Drain runs along the south boundary of the preliminary plat right through
there.. It is not tiled.. We are -- and it has not been tiled as part of either Bridgetower
Subdivision No. 2 or the Gallery Subdivision. The White Drain, actually, lies outside of
our proposed preliminary plat boundaries, but it is still I guess technically adjacent to our
plat boundaries and we would not like to have to file that. That, plus the clarification
Meridian Planning & Zoning

about building a water main from Locust Grove
to the conditions of approval.
Moe: Any questions?
O'Brien: I have none.
Road are the only changes that we had
Siddoway: Are you amenable to the concept combination of A and C or one and three
or whichever it was?
Christensen: Well, the concept plans -- as I said before, the concept plans are just
plans we put together. It's our understanding that the concept plans will be primarily
discussed as part of the development agreement ppmeelt w'th staff and aev°ew any of
are discussing tonight. And we would be happy.
those issues that they would like us to change.
Siddoway: Is staff looking for a motion from the Commission on the concept plans or is
this -- would you like just to make a recommendation on it for the -- for consideration
with the development agreements?
Canning: Chairman Moe, Commissioners, Commissioner Siddoway, if there are
comments that the Commission would like to make on the concept plans that might be
helpful. If there is ones that you favor or whatever concept you -- or whatever comment
you would like to make we can include that with the development agreement. It's
always a little awkward when there, is an eight lot plat and a two lot concept plan. It's
nice when they kind of coincide with one another. But we understand the flexibility
necessary for the commercial development. So, not opposed to that portion of it. But
we would welcome your recommendation on the concept plan.
Moe: Okay. Thank you.
Siddoway: And one final question. Is staff -- I'm concerned about the missing ACHD
report. Is there no issues of concern that you would expect to have a problem with this
being forwarded on to Council? I just know we have held up several in the past to wait
for that ACHD report to catch up.
Canning: Chairman Moe, Commissioners, Commissioner Siddoway, you know, this is
really a clean up of the DA, which is already allowed for commercial use and the rezone
is not to add new commercial properties to the area, it's only to have the appropriate
zoning on those. I would not anticipate that ACHD would come up with something that's
significantly new. The application has seen the staff report and perhaps they can give
you a quick rundown on what issues and -- I just can't foresee that ACHD all of a
sudden came with a lot of issues for this project, because it's really been approved for
years now.
Meridian Planning 8 Zoning

Page 51 of 59
Siddoway: Yeah. I couldn't see it Wa d fferent number of lots andtthings I ke thatr so
expect anything based on the plat and
Christensen: I do have the draft staff report from ACRD and we just got that today.
They are supportive of what we have shown. There is one clarification that I want to
make with them regarding the right of way width for Alba Avenue.
Siddoway: Uh-huh.
Christensen: Alba Avenue is similar -- we have a similar driveway installed for both
Bridgetowers 15 and 16. They are currently just parking lots and we have met with
ACRD, because we'd like to dedicate them as right of way. The ACRD staff report for
15 said, that's fine, you construct a 25 foot roadway and you can dedicate it as right of
way. The staff report for 16 says, that's fine, you construct a 25 foot roadway and put it
in a 42 foot right of way and we will accept it. So, I think it's just an error. I think we just
need to clarify that with them, the actual right of way width for Alba Avenue. So, at that
point that's really the only thing in the staff report that we have that I need to clarify with
ACHD staff before they can finalize their report.
Siddoway: And your proposed plat is based on the 25 foot roadway and --
Christensen: And a 27 foot right of way.
Siddoway: And a 27 foot right of way.
Christensen: The only change to that is there is a well lot, it looks like lot number one,
there is a square lot right there, that's a City of Meridian well lot and it abuts the
roadway. So, right there we have to have a two foot narrow -- narrower right of way to
avoid the city having to dedicate two feet of right of way along there. So, it's just some
technical stuff that we need to doesn't reflectt to because I haven't) had 'a chance t ago
problem, but their staff report
over that with them yet.
Siddoway: Does Alba have sidewalks along it or will it?
Christensen: It will. Yes.
Siddoway: It will. Okay. So, it's not just 25 curb to curb --
Christensen: On one side.
Siddoway: It's --
Meridian Planning ~ Zoning
January 3, 2008
Page 52 of 59
Christensen: It's 25 foot curb to curb, plus a sidewalk.
Siddoway: Plus a sidewalk. Okay. So, the sidewalk is outside of the right of way?
Christensen: Yes.
Siddoway: Okay.
Moe: Just another question of staff. Bill, in regards to the tiling, is that something that
we do want to have done?
Steckline: Mr. Chair, just some clarification on that. Basically, further down on that,
what we have written in there, what we are looking for is plans to be approved by the
appropriate irrigation district or drainage district or lateral users association -- basically,
the ditch owners, with a written approval or nonapproval of tiling it. It's not the intent of
the city to the make direction on whether or not they are tiling it or not. So, if they have
taken the necessary measures to contact those actual owners and relayed that
information back to us, that's, basically, what that condition is looking for. And that
would apply on the last application also.
Moe: Okay.
Christensen: That sounds good.
Moe: And you're saying you shouldn't have a problem with that.
Christensen: That shouldn't be any problem at all.
Moe: Okay. Any other questions?
Rohm.: I guess my only question would be are you comfortable with us moving this
forward with the condition that the ACRD report be included?
Christensen: Yes. Well, not the draft report, but the final report, sure.
Rohm: Not the draft -- you're comfortable that you can work out the differences --
Christensen: Yes.
Rohm.: -- between what the draft says and the final report before it goes to City
Council?
Christensen: I'm comfortable with that. Is my client? Yeah. '
Meridian Planning 8 Zoning
January 3, 2008
Page 53 of 59
Rohm: All right. Thank you.
Moe: Thank you.
Canning: Chairman Moe, Commissioners, Commissioner Rohm, I suspect that the 42
foot right of way is the correct answer, not the incorrect answer. But they could always
keep it private or do it as a private road, because that -- it does meet the standards for
that, which is sidewalk on one side and the 25 foot drive aisle. So, there are other
options available if they are not able to get the reduced right of way width that they are
looking for, that shouldn't impact the development. But I have never heard of ACHD
approving a 27 foot right of way. They generally are 42. So, I suspect that that was the
more complete answer.
Moe: Thank you. Well, again, no one has signed up for this. At this time anyone like to
come forward, feel free. If not, can I get a motion to close the Public Hearing.
Rohm: Absolutely. Mr. Chairman, I move that we close the Public Hearing on RZ 07-
022 and PP 07-026.
O'Brien: Second.
Moe: It has been moved and seconded to close the Public Hearing on RZ 07-022 and
PP 07-026 for Bridgetower Crossing Commercial. All those in favor say aye.. Opposed
same sign? That motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Moe: I don't really have too much of a problem with this at all. In regards to whether or
not we send this on to City Council, because of the fact we have the -- the Bridgetower
Crossing Office and Verona and they are working the DA agreements up and whatnot,
I'd hate to have something lag and, then, have to pick it up again. So, I think if, in fact, if
there was a motion basically stating that we approve it based upon the fact that, you
know, ACHD approvals are met, I don't have a real problem sending that one forward at
this time.
Siddoway: And. my only concern with that, Mr. Chairman, is the -- now, if ACRD does
stick with the 42 foot right of way, going to either have to modify the plat or make
whatever changes are needed make it a private road, I'm just wondering if that issue
needs to be cleaned up before going on, but I suppose it could be cleaned up as it goes
to Council. That's my only hesitation. I don't have a problem with the rezone, with the
layout. I do support the modified one and three concept idea and would go on the
record for that. I just have concerns about sending it up without a clean report from
ACRD.
Meridian Planning & Zoning
January 3, 2008
Page 54 of 59
Moe: Well, I would say I would agree with that reasoning as well. We always held it up
to get the reports, so that ourselves can see that. I'm just concerned with, you know,
trying to work with the applicant on this one. But I would have no problem with going
the other way. And I, too, like the concept plan, the one and three, and I like the way
what staff is anticipating in doing some transitioning through that area. I think that
makes a lot of sense. Mr. Rohm, do you have any have comments?
Rohm: Oh, I agree with Commissioner Siddoway and your comments and I do think
that it would be nice to be able to move this forward with the assumption that they are
going to be able to find resolve with ACHD and those answers will be available prior to
City Council hearing the project. So, that's my position on this.
Moe: Okay. Mr. O'Brien, do you have anything to add?
O'Brien: Boy, I sure don't. I think you have covered it pretty well. So, thank you, I don't
have any.
Moe: Having said that, then, can I get a motion.
Rohm: Before I make a motion I'd like to ask legal counsel here, can the motion include
the provision that the Ada County Highway District report be resolved prior to City
Council hearing or how do you -- how do you word a motion to that effect?
Baird: Mr. Chair, Members of the Commission, it's really difficult to condition something
on an agency that we don't control. I'd recommend you just let staff handle that and if
the report turns out to be significant. Staff can manage a continuance, perhaps, if
necessary. I know they continualluld avoid conditioning this on som thg g that we don't
that's different from that, but I wo
have -- and they don't have control over.
Rohm: That's why I asked the question. So, if we were to make a motion just
recommending approval and, then, in fact, they -- the applicant could not come to
agreement with the ACHD, then, staff themselves would not move it forward to City
Council, is that kind of what you're saying?
Baird..: Well, I'd let the planning staff address that, Mr. Chair, and Members of the
Commission..
Members of the Commission, Commissioner Rohm, there is -
Canning: Chairman Moe,
- when staff prepares your recommendation to forward it to Council, they include all the
discussion that went on tonight and, then, there is a last section that says outstanding
issues and anytime on any project the Commission can feel free to add a comment to
that. Like if you didn't like a -- not suggesting that this is going to -- if you didn't like a
Meridian Planning & Zoning

Page 55 of 59
project and say, well, you know, we couldn't really deny it, but we didn't like it. You
know, you can tell us that and we can put it in the outstanding condition. In this case
you can say, you know, our -- our approval was based on the assumption that the
ACRD report would not cause a significant change to the preliminary plat and, therefore,
we recommended it onto Council in order for all of these to catch up with the Verona
project. Something of that sort. And we can include that in the outstanding conditions
and -- and if there were ever conditions under which you wanted it to -- to come back to
you, you know, if, for some reason Council feels it's appropriate, we would -- you know,
please remand it back to us under these conditions or something like that. That could
be appropriate as well. The outstanding issues comment, we use it all the time and it
never occurred to me that perhaps we should tell you you guys can use it, too, so that's
always --
Moe: That's very good to know, as a matter of fact.
Canning: Yeah. But we can certainly add a comment in there.
Moe: Thank you.
Rohm: Okay. I`m going to make a stab at this, then. Okay. Mr. Chairman -- did you
have anything else that you wanted to --
Siddoway: Well, I was just noticing on your notes to delete 2.7, but I was going to -- to
note that I think it's just the --
Rohm,: That was for -- that was for another project.
Siddoway: All right.
Moe: 2.2?
Siddoway: 2.2. It's just the middle -- there is two -- there is three sentences in that and
it's just the middle sentence that needs to come out, so --
Rohm: Okay.
Siddoway: That's the reference to Locust Grove Road --
Rohm: And the applicant shall be responsible to install two water connections -- is that
the one that comes out?
Canning: Yes.
Meridian Planning & Zoning
January 3, 2008
Page 56 of 59
Siddoway: Well, I think the first sentence and the last sentence stay; is that correct, Mr.
Steckling
Steckling: Chairman Moe, Commissioner Siddoway, that's correct.
Siddoway: Okay. So, it's just the middle sentence that gets deleted.
Rohm: Got you. Okay. Okay. Mr. Chairman?
Moe: Yes, sir.
Rohm: I'd like to make a motion to -- let me read this here. After considering all staff,
applicant, and public testimony, I move to recommend approval of RZ 07-022 and PP
07-026, to include the staff report with the following modification: In Public Works
Department, Section 2.2, the second sentence that begins with the applicant shall be
responsible, that sentence will be deleted from that condition and I further would like to
point out that the ACHD report has not been accepted in its final format and that that
needs to be resolved to the applicant and staff both agree to it before City Council is to
hear this project. End of motion.
Siddoway: Before I second it, just -- not to be anal, but the third sentence also starts
with the applicant shall be responsible to. So, I just wanted to clarify that we are only
talking about the second sentence, because they both start the same.
Rohm: Excuse me. Just the second sentence.
Siddoway: Second,.
Moe: Okay. It has been moved and seconded to approve RZ 07-022 and PP 07-026
for Bridgetower Crossing Commercial with modifications as noted... All those in favor say
aye. Opposed same sign? That motion carries.
MOTION CARRIED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Canning.: Chairman Moe, it doesn't need to be part of an official vote or part of that
previous vote, but did the Commission choose to comment on the concept plan for this
project?
Siddoway: Yes, please.
Rohm: Yes. I'd like to make another motion -- can we have an additional motion or do
we need to modify the previous motion?
Moe: Counsel's going yes. So, yes, we can do this.
Meridian Planning & Zoning

Rohm: Okay.
Canning: It's just a comment.
Siddoway: It's a comment.
Moe: Mr. Rohm would like to make a comment.
Siddoway: Make a motion.
Rohm: I'd dike to make a motion to address the preliminary plat 07-026 and to forward
onto City Council recommending that we adopt the north half of concept one and the
south half of concept three. End of motion.
Siddoway: Second.
Moe: Okay.
Siddoway: And just for clarification, that's to be used with the development agreement
language; correct?
Rohm: Correct.
Moe: Okay. All those in favor of that motion signify by saying aye. Opposed? That
motion carries as well.
MOTION CARRLED: FOUR AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Moe: At this time Mr. O'Brien requested that he have the floor, so before we adjourn,
Mr. O'Brien.
O'Brien: Yeah. I don't know if we need to have anybody else -- it's a public meeting, so
will just go ahead with it. From time to time we have had applicants come through and
continually continue their application for long periods of time -- in other words, it might
happen four or five times a year and I think that in doing this it's a great misuse of time
by staff, by the city and by us and I would like to recommend that when we see an
applicant that continues to continue their application, that we would recommend denial
of their application for at least a year. Maybe Anna can explain a little bit more in detail
about what I talked with her about earlier to clarify that, if you could.
Canning: I would happen to. There are some projects that for different reasons end up
being continued time after fiime after time and it does place an extra burden on staff to
notice them, to put them on the agenda, to generally keep track of them, to keep the
