Kingsford: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF MERIDIAN ANNEXING AND
ZONING CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY WHICH IS DESCRIBED AS THE SOUTH HALF
OF THE SOUTH HALF OF GOVERNMENT LOT 4, AND THE WEST HALF OF THE
NW 1/4 OF THE SE i/4 OF THE NW 1/4, AND A PORTION OF THE NORTH
HALF OF THE SW 1/4 OF THE NW 1/4 OF SECTION 5, T. 3N., R. lE.,
B.M., ADA COUNTY, IDAHO; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Is
there anyone present who wishes Ordinance #62gI read in it's
entirety? No response.
The Motion was made by Yerrington and seconded by Giesler that
the rules and provisions of 50-9~t2 and all rules and provisions
requiring that Ordinances be read on three different days be
dispensed with and that Ordinance #620 be passed and approved.
Roll Call Vote: Yerrington - Yea; Giesler - Yea; Corrie - Vea;
Tolsma - Yea;
Motion Carried: All Yea:
ITEM #3: REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION BY JIM HOYLE ON LACK OF WATER
PRESSURE AND LEASH LAWS:
Kingsford: Mr. Hoyle my apology's on the water pressure I
thought that we had t-hat taken care of when you and I spoke.
Jim Hoyle: With all the new people moving into Meridian 1 think
it would be worthwhile for the City to send out periodically
notice to peaple on what the leash law is. Explained that he
walks and there is same problem with animals not being on
leashes.
The main reason why I' m here, last May I spent ><3500. P11Q1 to have a
new sprinkler system put in and also a new main line from the
Teeter into my house. As of now it cannot operate properly
because I do not have volume or pressure enough to operate the
type of system that was put in and it was approved by the city
inspector. I feel the main problem is between the main and the
meter, everything else is new. I would like to have this checked
out from your department if at ally possible.
Kingsford: I understood that there was going to be separate
service lines.
Eng. S®ith: I talked to Bruce today and he said that he had that
scheduled for next week so I'll see that it gets done next week.

ITEM #4: REQUEST FOR APPEAL TO FENCE VARIANCE COMMITTEE DECISION
AT ~53~1 N. MEADOWGLEN PL. BY RANDY WILLIAMS:
Randy Williams: Let me start this by having you gentleman look
at the correspondence that the City of Meridian sent me on their
denial of my variance. Some of the committee members suggested
that I locate the fence and align parallel with the front of my
garage but the problem with that is the covenants of my
subdivision state that any R.V. vehicles that I have be behind a
fence, therefore I need this fence variance to accommodate that.
I do have some photo's that I took showing where the last post in
line will be on this fence. It was my understanding the main
ot~jection was that I could not see pedestrian traffic on the
sidewalk and it is obvious from those photo's that I can
definitely see traffic on the sidewalks.
Kingsford: Gary, would you have any comeents on the fence
committee's logic that you'd like to bring up.
Eng. SOith: That was our main concern was just so he would have
adequate site backing our of the garage onto the driveway, not
having to back into the sidewalk area before proceeding into the
culdesac. Because it is on a culdesac the fence could be located
on an angle across there.
Williams: It was my feeling that that wouldn't be very
aesthetically pleasing if I had to do that.
Kingsford: Any questions of the Council?
Cowie: I understand that your problem is that you want to put
your boat or motorhome in that section.
Williams: Correct.
Cowie: When I was out there this afternoon it did extend out
past the front part of the garage.
Williams: Correct.
Cowie: At the present t i me yoa~' ve gat a chain l ink type fence
behind all that, right?
Williams: A temporary fence, yes.
Cowie: Why can't you move the house trailer and the boat back a
little further where the grass is and the temporary fence is?

Williams: I could do that but I wanted to utilise that area for
lawn and it was my feeling that I could adequately use the space
that I want to use now and still be able to see the sidewalk.
Kingsford: Any other questions or comments?
Giesler: I'm also on that fence comwittee and it was a concern
of mine of what we've already talked about plus I felt that it
would be somewhat unsightly to see it stick out in front of the
garage like that.
Williams: I can address that, the fence will extend in front of
my home but not my neighbors to the immediate south of me. It
will be in a parallel line to the front of their garage.
Giesler: I understand but it's still in front of your home and
the set backs are different from where your because of the
culdesac.
Kingsford: If your covenants just require that your R.V.'s be
behind a fence what would be improper about having it be a three
or four foot fence that would meet our standards?
Williams: They have to be completely hidden, behind a six foot
fence.
Kingsford: That's not going to shield a motorhome.
Williams: It will not shield the top of it but by-in-large most
of the vehicle will be hidden from sight.
Tolsma: It's not possible to run the fence at an angle from the
corner of the garage to the corner of your neighbors fence?
Williams: It is very much passible but it was my opinion that
that would not be very aesthetically pleasing. It would look
better squared off as opposed to being ran at an angle. Also the
neighbors I've talked to don't see a problem with that nor did
any of them show up to specify a proble^ with that.
Kingsford: One thing I can see Mr. Williams, the issue in a
culdesac is certainly different than ors a straight street, but a
precedence being established is going to be a tough one for this
Council to have to deal with if they allow you this and tell
someone on a street that they can't.

Tolsma: Did they give you a recommendation as far as the fence
meeting the corner of the garage to the neighbors fence as far as
site?
Giesler: I don't no whether it was really discussed at that time
or not. Gary do you remember?
Williams: Running it at an angle from my property to the
neighbors?
Giesler: Right.
Williams: Well if it's run at an angle it will all be behind the
twenty foot set back. My garage is set back about 23 feet, the
fence I' m looking at about 1®, feet.
Eng. Ssith: If it was run at that position it wouldn't require a
variance because it would all be behind the set back.
Giesler: That doesn't help your problem though, correct?
Williams: That's correct.
Eng. Smith: I would project about ten feet out from your garage
to the line of the neighbors front garage. That would leave 13'
left.
Williams: That's what is left from the corner of the fence to
the sidewalk.
Eng. Smith: Do you need all of that ten foot or could you settle
for something less?
Williams: I could probably work with less.
eFurther discussion - see tape)
The Motion was made by Tolsma and seconded by Yerrington to
approve the fence variance to allow a 6' fence to be 8' in front
of the garage so long as it's 15' from the sidewalk and
recognizing that this is a culdesac and does not set a precedent
on a straight street.
Motion Carried: All Yea:

ITEM #5: FINAL PLAT: MERIDIAN BUSINESS PARK BY TOM EDDY:
Tom Eddy: We've reviewed the conditions that Gary S®ith set
forth on the Meridian Business Park and we have no problem
meeting those conditions. I'd be glad to answer any questions
you might have.
Corrie: I have one question reference to the narrow driveways,
there are three of them, one on E. 14ing Street which starts out
at 50' width and then goes into I believe 3g1' and then it's into
Lot 16, Block 2.
Eddy: It starts at 50 and goes into 3It1'.
Corrie: Right. The Fire Department has some problems with the
30' plus what's going in there? We have to have a turn around
for a fire truck to come in there to turn around, they can't be
backing back out. Is there anything done there for that?
Eddy: There's a business there now isn't there?
Winston Moore: Yes, there is a salvage yard for a trucking
insurance company.
Corrie: Where is the fence?
Moore: The fence is right along the property line I believe the
south property line of Lot 17. But the whole thing is screened
all the way around.
Corrie: Okay how about going south then, is it screened along
that frontage?
Moore: No it is not, the drive is open but there's a screen gate
that enters into the drive.
Corrie: I'm just trying to see if we get a fire truck in there
is it can turn around without having to back out.
Ftingsford: How far back is the building beyond that gate?
Moore: I would guess about iP~G feet.
Corrie: Who belongs to Lot 16?

Moore: Lot 16 I believe belongs to Dr. Eld a Veterinarian and
he's putting a small building on that I think.
Currie: How about down next to Franklin there's a 3f1+' entrance.
Moore: We planned to have a reciprocal ingress/egress easement
so there would be one roadway through there use the entire 6Q-'.
Currie: And what about the one east of that?
Eddy: On Lot 20, we'll make that a 4G'.
Currie: Will that be paved?
Eddy: If and when that's developed, yes.
Moore: We're finding that to accom®odate the type of employer
and new business that we're observing as seeking to come into
Boise, that there are a lot of Beall users as opposed to a lot of
large users and that's the reason for so many half acre lots here
so we can accom®odate the s®aller user to create some esployment
in Meridian and we can also by combining the lots then we have
the flexibility to provide an acre lot, an acre and half lot and
so on. It's very unlikely that this will be developed lot by lot
like a residential subdivision.
Kingsford: Thank you.
The Motion was made by Tolsma and seconded by Currie to approve
the Final Plat for Meridian Business Park by Tom Eddy.
Motion Carried: All Yea:

approve the Final Plat on Bridgewood Subdivision conditioned upon
receiving confirmation of deeded land from Dorado/James Court

ITEM #B: PRESENTATION! OF URBAN IRRIGATION DRAFT BY SCOTT
CAMPBELL, SETTLERS IRRIGATION DISTRICT AND DAREN COON, NAMPA
MERIDIAN IRRIGATION DISTRICT:
Scott Campbell, Attorney: I'm speaking on behalf of Settlers
Irrigation District. Mr. Coon is appearing here on behalf of
Nampa Meridian Irrigation District. The purpose of our request
to speak to you this evening is two fold, the pri®ary one whicfi
~ ~
MERIDIAN CITY COUNCIL
SEPT. ~1, 1993
PAGE 9
is reflected on the agenda is to bring to the Council's attention
the efforts of the Settlers Irrigation District over the course
of several months now, in fact commencing in Nove®ber of 1991 to
try to deal with the accelerating problem of urbanisation within
the district and the conversion of agricultural lands to
subdivisions. In Nove®ber of 1991 the Board of Directors of
Settlers Irrigation District determined that any petitions for
exclusion from the District would be denied, that subdividers
would be encouraged by the district's policy to apply the water
to the real property. We felt at that point and time that was in
compliance with the State Code. Idaho Code Section 31-3805 which
mandated that surface water irrigation systems be installed when
subdivisions were put in. Unfortunately because of various
considerations that provision of the code had not been enforced
with uniformity by the various City's and because of the
frustration of the district in that regard the district took that
policy. Since November of 1991 the district has encountered a
number of subdividers who have petitioned for exclusion, the
petitions have been denied and since April of this last year when
the Legislature adopted four new statutes the irrigation
district, Settlers along with Nampa Meridian now have the
authority to work cooperatively with developers and form local
improvement district, also enter into contracts with developers
for the installation of systems. In concert with that
development legislatively the district approached the City of
Meridian as well as the City of Boise with the suggestion and the
recommendation that the City's consider modifying their
Ordinances to provide more clarity and in fact more encouragement
for the developsent of these systems. Attended a meeting earlier
this year with City Officials and at that meeting Mayor Kingsford
was encouraging of the efforts of Settlers and Nampa Meridian to
develop systems which were operated and maintained by the
irrigation districts and to provide that surface water irrigatior~
delivery in lieu of the ground water source, which the City
operates obviously. Part of the problem that the irrigation
districts have been facing is that because of the City's
ordinance with the option of either providing surface water
irrigation system or paying into the well fund the developers
have found it much more convenient to merely pay that extra money
per lot into the well fund and be done with it. Consequently
we've had less than satisfactory results in working with
developers. We have had some positive reaction from some. We
are currently working with the developers of Parkside Creek to
~ ~
Qr1ER I D I AR! C I TY COUNC I L
SEPT. ~ 1, 1993
RAGE llb
try to work out an arrangement contractually for the development
of the remaining phase of that subdivision. Have had discussions
with other developers. However, because of the positive reaction
from the City of Meridian, I was encouraged to draft an ordinance
amendment to the City of Meridian's subdivision ordinance. I did
that, pi^ovided the ordinance asendsent, the draft proposal to
Mayor Kingsford and to Mr. Crookston, this was in May. Mr.
Crookston responded with some suggested changes, I sent him a
revised draft towards the middle of May I contacted Mr. Crookston
by telephone and his response was that the draft looked
acceptable to him and that he would forward that on to the City
for consideration. Subsequent to that date we've had some
discussions and correspondence with the Mayor with regard to
Pat^kside Creek and our efforts to put that situation together and
in the context of that I made inquiry as to the status of the
Ordinance Amendment. Becaa+se of the pressures that I'm sure the
City Council and Mayor have been facing we did not receive
response from that. Because of the concerns of the irrigation
district with regard to the continued pressures of development
and the pressures on the resource we felt it would be best to
present our position to the City Council because of the
continuing development requests which the City Council will face
with regard to Settlers and Nampa Meridian so that at least the
irrigation district can know for it's purposes whether or not the
City will seriously consider an ordinance asendsent as presented
and if not then the irrigation district has certain options
available to it. If it knows that the City of Meridian is not
going to consider and not going to adopt an ordinance amendment
requiring developers to install the systems within an irrigation
district then the irrigation district can either decide to try to
work cooperatively with developers to convince them that it's iro
their best interest to sign contracts with the district for• cost
sharing or failing that the irrigation districts under the new
statutes have the authority to force a local isprovesent district
for the construction installation of that system. Because of the
positive response that we had previously received fros the City
because of the continuing nature of the relationship which will
exist with regard to the City and the irrigation districts on
this issue we felt it would be best to present the issue to you
this evening and to determine what the City's position would be
on that issue.
The second component of the presentation is the corollary concern
and that is developments utilization of the irrigation districts
system of canals for drainage water. Because of the regulations
•
MERIDIAN! CITY COUNCIL
SENT. ~ 1, 1993
PAGE it
of the environmental protection agency, which were passed a year
ago this last November, non-point source discharge of stream
water within an urban area of iQ1~l,@1~1~ population or more is
subject to strict regulation by the environmental protection
agency. Because Settlers Irrigation District has portions of
it's facilities within the City of Boise that set of regulations
may come into play if there is any drainage water from a
subdivision, not agricultural land but a subdivision, this would
be subject to extensive regulation, water quality treatment
control, etc. Their still in the process of sorting this all out
so from Settlers standpoint when the City of Meridian, the City
of Boise consider subdivisions and look at off street drainage
into a system, such as an irrigation canal, the City by approving
that kind of drainage may produce a situation which does not
facilitate the developaent but instead produces a conflict
between the developer and the irrigation district. <Gave example
- see tape)
On these two issues, pri®arily the urban irrigation issue, the
Settlers Irrigation District respectfully requests the view of
the City Council so that the district can move forward to deal
with this issue.
14ingsford: I visited with Gary and Rod of Parkside Creek and
they are anxious to work with the two districts but contended to
me that they having trouble from the .irrigation districts because
their property, there is some dispute as to who has what and it
seems to me like when we visited that the two irrigation
districts said that there was no problem and you'd be able to
work that out. Yet, at least their telling me that there is a
serious problem.
Campbell: Unfortunately whenever yogi deal with multiple parties,
scheduling becomes a difficulty and anytime you involve lawyers
you compound that difficulty. Consequently we star^ted this
project back in May or June with these folks and Jahn Fitzgerald
had to go to his son's wedding and ] had to deal with other
matters and obviously we have other things to do as you do also.
Mle determined who represents Nampa Meridian Irrigation District,
I assume that you all know that. We determined that there was an
apparent conflict as ascertained that the best way to resolve
that would be to have the Secretary/Treasurers of the two
districts compare notes and sort the problem out. Our
Secretary/Treasurer met with Daren Coon at Nampa Meridian Offices
.just last week and the issue is resolved as far as ownership.
MERIDIAN CLTY COUNCIL
SEPT. ~1, 1993
PAGE 12
That was a significant issue because of the req~rirements of State
Law as to an LID and the contractual arrangements. From my
understanding that is resolved at this stage. However, that's
from our prospective. Stated further concerns - see tape.
Kingsford: My position has not changes since we initially
talked. I think it's definitely in the City's best interest if
we utilise the surface water and particularly when there's a
district that will take care of that. For my part, I think it's
an eKCellent program and I have no problem at all endorsing it.
Tolsma: One of the concerns that a lot of people had and I think
probably it's going to be - certain subdivisions could probably
use this and some of them aren't would be the ones that have
access to live water after the irrigation water is out of the
canal and before it comes iroto the canal. I think that was one
reason the Vineyards was such a good place because it had a
drainage {in-audible) that runs live water year round. As the
water leaves the canal a month early then all these people want
to hook up to City water which creates a tremendous problem for
ti15.
Campbell: I understand that. Settlers realises that surface
water systems connected to the irrigation canals delivery system
will not work in every case. The ordinance draft has a provision
far the Secretary/Treasurer of the irrigation district to certify
that it will not work and in that instance that certification i5
to the City and in that instance then the district has told the
City that it won't work here. The general rule from the
district's standpoint should be that they will work, they should
work, that it's a valuable resource which from the standpoint of
the hydrology and the geology of the Boise Valley is 6y in large
the groundwater aquifer in this valley does not recharge
naturally in a substantial area. Along the river it does but if
you get very far from the river at all it does not recharge
naturally. The only way the groundwater aquifer has been
recharged historically in this valley has been from the
application of irrigation water to the land. As the valley
develops from agricultural to urban if that surface water
delivery system is not maintained and if that surface water is
not continued to be applied that recharge will diminish over
time. ] think we're seeing that. {Furtrier - see tape)

Tolsma: I'm all for the pressurised irrigation. We feel it
makes sense both for the districts standpoint and for the City
and the population as a whole. If the irrigation district says
it can't work in a certain area then tFiey could probably be
suspectable to o'ar ordinance. I think if it will work there and
the irrigation district gives appro~•al I think it should go.
Campbell: That's the way that the ordinance amendment was
drafted, which Mr. Crookston has reviewed. From the standpoint
of the district the only action to be taken is by the City at
this point.
Kingsford: Now the two irrigation districts have approved of the
standards.
Campbell: Yes.
Crookston: Are there any other irrigation districts within
Meridian's area of impact?
Campbell: I don't know of any other district except possibly
PloiselKuna and I don't know haw their boundary correlates.
Perhaps Daren Coon would be able to speak to that better than I.
Discussion of any possible other districts, etc. - see tape.
Daren Coon, Nampa Meridian Irrigation District: I don't mean to
overwhelm you with paperwork but I talked to Mr. Forrey and he
indicated that maybe you would have same interest in what it is
that we've accomplished as far as plans, procedures and methods
of irrigation. tPassed out information to Council Members) As
some follow ups to some of the questions that were asked of Mr.
Campbell earlier, Nampa Meridian worked with Settlers Irrigation
District in the case of Rod's Parkside Creek Subdivision. The
issues there have been resolved. I guess it was a
misunderstanding as far as who had jurisdiction for the water
rights, drainage rights, so on and so forth. I don't know what
the developer has decided as far as whether or not he's going to
install an irrigation system. I really believe that that is up
to the developer at this point to make up his mind. I think it
was Councilman Tolsma that brought up the issue of the Vineyards
Subdivision, we worked extensively with the developer there in an
effort to persuade him to install the pressure urban irrigation
system. There was also another question about possible impacts
from other irrigation district, there's Boise, Kuna, New York and

Pioneer. Those do have a potential I suspect there somewhere
long term and yes Nampa Meridian has coached and through a
significant effort tried to educate all of the ii^rigation
entities in the entire Boise valley on urban irrigation. There's
presently two sites that are in process right now and should come
on line late this year. One is in the Meridian area, that's
Cherry Lane Village #3 8 #4. The other one is in Boise. Both of
those we expect to be rather impressive systems. Nampa Meridian
is involved with Boise Water Corporation's committee on what they
~^efer to as dual systems as far as urban irrigation and domestic
mater is concerned. We expect to be an important player in there
committee in order to move the thing forward. They have
expressed considerable interest in the process. We're presently
also working with the City of Boise on a very similar ordinance
in the area of urban irrigation. We hope to, once we move these
along through the City of Meridian and the City of Boise to take
it on to Ada County as well. We would like to see the thing
instituted on a County wide basis. There was a question earlier
from the City Attorney concerning alternate sources or back up
sources for the irrigation wate-^. Nampa Meridian has looked at
several sites where we could recover water from our drains in
order to pressurise these urban irrigation syste®s. Drains,
generally speaking will run continuously througl-iout the year.
They certainly have high and low points but we hope to create a
lot of recovery sites in order to provide water to the urban
irrigation systems. tExplained Edgeview project - see tape) The
normal delivery season is for Nampa Meridian approximately the
15th of April through the 15th of October of any one year. Of
course that can vary with the availability of water, the
necessity, the weather conditions, etc.. A lot of people have
looked at the last few years of water shortages and I think in my
opinion are placing to much emphasis on that because if you look
at the history of the thing we had a few years of water shortage
compared to a 9~1 year history. It's somewhat insignificant and
if you will also note that the reservoir system has held up quite
well. ] had one question for the City and it had to do with the
urban irrigation ordinance that was pending before the City. Mr.
Forney had indicated to me that you folks we waiting to see what
kind of progress the irrigation districts have made and based
srpon his information I brought the documentation this evening and
I believe that speaks a lot for itself. The other point I wanted
to make was that the district remains ready, willing and able to
stand to the challermge of the urban irrigation system.

Kingsford: That's a question I have with regard to the volume
that we've been inundated with, are you truly prepared to review
the systems and inspect and so on the volume that we have?
You've got the manpower and your able to do that?
Coon: We believe that we are. We*ve been working towards that.
It will be a significant task but we feel that we're prepared to
deal with that.
Kingsford: Everyone is concerned about the ~.tp front eosts. Any
questions the Council has?
g'errington: What is your proposed cost say on an average
subdivision per lot to install the system your talking about?
Coon: In a new subdivision it would probably not exceed ~®faid.0@t
depending upon the size of the system. In the handout that I
.just delivered there's an exa®ple of a 7dd acre subdivision
consisting of approximately cif lots, average lot size is 1/3 of
an acre, the estimated cost at the time of development is 375rD.0Qo
per lot. That is on the part of the developer, estimated cost
per lot on a Nampa Meridian Local Improvement District
installation is 1774.34/Lot. The reason the cost would be mare
for the district to install it is because some of the overheard
that naturally comes with the bureaucracy of the irrigatior~
district. Estimated cost for interest at 9% for #774.34 is
Ib379.66. The estimated irrigation district tax would be per lot
on the LID X115.38 assuming a ten year pay back. The estimated
cost for NMID to operate and maintain the irrigation system is
'15~1.0Q1 per lot. The estimated cost per lot for the regular
irrigation district tax, which all lands in the district pay
presently is ~~5.0~ per lot. So your estimated total irrigation
district tax, including local improve®ent district, if you chose
to go that way the cost for the urban irrigation system itself
and the regular irrigation tax which includes assessment expense,
district drainage, reservoir maintenance, all these things would
be ~ 193. ~~. So i t wou l d be about ~ 193.88 a year per l of on a ~i f~
lot subdivision having a LID.
Crookston: Which includes your value of your water, does it not?
Coon: Yes that's everything. If a developer installs it then we
assume that he recovers his cost through the sale of the lot.
Kingsford: Any other questions? No response. I would suggest
to the Council that you get copies of that ordinance fi^om Will
and let's get that on the next agenda.

Corrie: You talked about surface drainage into your canals or
your ditches that would have to meet EPA standards and be tested.
I didn't quite understand what you said there.
Coon: This has happened infrequently but nevertheless it has
happened and I just wanted to express the districts concern on
this issue because of the volume of applications that you see and
that the County sees, the irrigation districts have overlapping
boundaries as you well know and the situation does develop where
as a condition of approval through the development process, the
subdivision has to take care of drainage. To retain it all on
site can be difficult or more costly or if there's a ground water
problem, impossible. So in those instances since the irrigation
district can't afford to send it's representative to every
meeting of every .jurisdiction often times the developer may not
know, may not be concerned about the issues the irrigation
district has face but may represent to the City Council that well
the irrigation run-off goes back into this canal and that's what
the situation was with Summerfield. The irrigation water run-off
return flow is exempt under the clean water act from water
quality regulation at least now. We're not talking about when
it's developed it being irrigation return water run-off, it's
urban stream water drainage with grease, gasoline, oil,
pesticides, you name it we don't know but it gets in the water
and it comes back into the system. Because the EPA has adopted
new storm water, water quality regulations that do apply within
urban areas of 1~I~t, ~t00 population or more, those regulations
maybe construed to apply to irrigation facilities and require
treatment because of urban storm water run-off that finds it's
way into irrigation canals. It's more of a matter of information
that if you allow that as a condition of approval, you are
producing a conflict between the developer and the irrigation
district. With regard to Summerfield we don't know how we're
going to resolve that. We've told them you will not discharge
into our irrigation canal, they have said well we have authority
from the City of Meridian. We're saying that doesn't mean very
much from our standpoint. We are looking ~t it from the
standpoint of the additional cost, the additional liability,
which all of the patrons of the irrigation district will have to
bear because of those federal requirements.
Kingsford: Thank you for your time. Is Mr. Arte or Mr. Kennedy
here now?

was unable to make a phone call to Will today to let him know.
He wants to be scheduled at the October 5th meeting.

HTEM #10: DEPARTMENT REPORTS:
Eng. Smith: On Bridgewood Subdivision I'd like to regress to
that for ,just a second and maybe make mention of something on
their development plans that they had submitted on that
subdivision they do not show any additional right of way to the
north of that 30' strip. What they show is a 24' section and I
can't tell if that is a pavement section or if that includes the
curb and gutter but that's all they show on their development
plans. They do not show anything extending to the north of their
present north boundary. I think that's something that needs to
be worked out with them then because according to this there is
not intention of providing any more.

Kingsford: Let's make sure they understand the conditions.
Eng. Smith: We are a member of a consortium of people that
discharge to the lower Hoise River, what they call the Lower
Boise River Water @uality Plan, it's a coordination effort
between Boise, Meridian, Caldwell, Nampa, Middleton and some
conservationists too involved in this and this plan is being put
together to monitor the river water quality kind of a head of any
requirements that might be imposed on us as dischargers to the
river by EPA. So they are monitoring the contaminants in the
river, the nutrient load and so forth and as part of that CH2M
Hill has been designated as the coordinator for the project by
the group of people making up this study. The next eight months
of monitoring the river and preparing updated reports to all the
members of this group, CHUM has proposed a budget fee of around
345, 0~t0. (~Qt. They have proposed to underwrite half of that amount
themselves and the remaining amount is then split up amongst all
the members of this group and the City of Meridian, I believe the
split was based on the quantity of water that we discharge per
day, per month, whatever and the a®ount that we nave been
requested to contribute is °S 1,QtL•1Q1.0Q1 for this coming eight months
of coordination efforts. CHUM has sent me a request to enter
into that agreement to pay that amount. I would recommend that
we do this but I wanted to let you know what's going on. This
groatp has been under formation since the early part of this year.
The Motion was made by Yerrington and seconded by Tolsma to enter
into agreement with the Lower Boise River Water @uality Plan.
Motion Carried: All Vea:
Eng. Smith: On our water distribution telemetry system the
number of remote transmitting units that was bid included through
well #14, since that project was bid we have another well that
will be on line Shortly within 3t11 days. It's going to need to
have a remote transmitting unit installed in that well also. I
requested a change order quotation from Aquatrol, who is the
Contractor to us for that system and they have responded and this
would include the master additions for the control unit also plus
a Spare and the amount i s 'E11, 36~. 01I1. I st i 11 have a fe~a
questions about this amount but haven't been able to contact the
person I need to speak to.
Fingsford: Ar•e we going to be looking at that with each well
that we add?

Eng. Smith: Each well that we add we would have to have an R-T-U
device that runs about ~49fdG.GQt. But of course the initial cost
15 the thing that we all see, we don't have the monthly costs for
telephone lines, which was a significant cost to us and over a
year I think one of these units it's pay back is like fo-lr years.
The Motion was made by Giesler and seconded by Corrie to approve
the change order #1 to Aquatrol.
Motion Carried: All Yea:
Wayne Forrey: Several meetings ago there were some citizens that
approached the Council discussing drainage proble®s in crawl
spaces in Chateau Meadows #8. The city staff followed up and I
sent out fifteen letters to individuals that were identified as
having ground water problems inviting those folks to a meeting.
We held that meeting today here at City Hall at 4:10 P. M., we met
until 6:QIF~I. A lot of good information came out, I have several
pages of notes, we have a tape transcript, a lot of good
suggestions, a lot of new facts that I was not aware of or Gary
was not aware of. What we decided to do bottom line was meet
nestt Tuesday again at 4:ftlG P. M. to give myself and Gary enough
time to do several things. First of all, to summarize the facts
as we know them and the facts of some construction in that area
that may or may not have an affect on the drainage, it was
competed to ACRD specifications, identify the solutions,
continue to talk to the folks o>rt there and the engineers and
boil all of it down into a report back to the citizens next
Tuesday but also to identify a solution, probably the most
reasonable that should be done and who should do it to solve this
problem. The citizens indicated they would give us a week and I
think that was good of them because some of them are facing
insurance claims for damage to their homes. If your interested
next Tuesday at 4:0td we should have this thing pinned down.
F~ingsford: With regard to Best Western Concrete, the letter that
you had sent to them was to comply by October 1st, is that right?
Forrey: No, October 7, 1993 to comply.
i2ingsford: It's my understanding from the people that live out
there that nothing has improved, no efforts to construct a berm.

Forrey: I spoke to their legal counsel on Friday and they were
to start on Monday of this week on the berm.
Currie: Can we close them down if they don't comply by the ?th?
Crookston: I'd have to look into it. I do have a conflict on
this matter.
Forrey: In my letter I indicated that if they did not comply
with all the requirements by that date they would be in violation
of the ordinance and that as the Zoning Administrator that I
would cite them in violation of the Ordinance. There might be
some other procedures there but they were clearly warned in the
1 et t er.
Crookston: I did get a call from Colleen Carpenter who is the
tenant of the Amick property. She just had some questions, she
has some complaints about the residents that she hadn't mentioned
to Amick and she said because she was unclear as to whether or
not she was going to have to move when we closed on that
property. I told her I would inquire as best I could tc+
determine what direction the City wanted to go. I don't know
that it needs the full Council action but just some authorisation
for one of you to deal with so I can answer her question.
Kingsford: I'd suggest to the Council that maybe we handle that
through Mr. Forrey since he's worked on the grant and has better
knowledge of what we're going to have to do with regard to
Department of Commerce and so on.
The Motion was made by Tolsma and seconded by Giesler to have
Wayne Forrey deal with the rental of the Dave Amick property.
Motion Carried: All Yea:
Currie: Can we get a prelimnnary draft for that nuisance
ordinance far weeds that we've talked about?
Crookston: Yes.
Currie: One other thing, that Fiscal Funding on Fine Street,
have you heard any more about that?
Crookston: The last communication is what I delivered to you.
Kingsford: Let's get with the program and get that one taken
care of.
