The Meridian Fire Department would be opposed to a full access to Eagle Rd. because of
safety concerns that could arise as the result of potential collisions from left in traffic
movements from southbound Eagle Rd. and left out to southbound Eagle Rd. There fore the
Fire Department can only support a right in and right out turning movements from the parcel.
In addition, any access which may be granted will have to be 24' wide to accommodate two
way traffic with an inside turning radius of 28' and an outside turning radius of 48'. We
would concur with the applicant that if a temporary access is granted that at such time as
adjacent properties are developed and access can be provided from the south via the extension of E.
River Valley Street at the half mile or from the north across the South Slough, that the temporary
access should be removed from service.
