ACHD does not prefer to vacate partial alleys, because of traffic flow, but in both instances they were convinced that using the parking lot as exits, it provides sufficient circulation. Regarding the financials on this, they valued the alley at that time at 10,200 dollars and in exchange for actually charging that, they took the value of the substitute access through the city's parking lot as compensation and so in order for the city to get half of the vacation and for Generations Plaza to get half of the vacation, Gary Benoit and Vencor paid the city in the year 2001 5,200 dollars. I confirmed with our accounting department that we did receivd that payment and they haven't gotten their land six years later. So, what I'm looking for tonight is your approval of the access agreement, which would allow this six year old transaction to be completed. De Weerd: Thank you. Council, any questions from Mr. Baird? Rountree: I have none. De Weerd: Okay. If there is no questions, do I have -- Rountree: Madam Mayor? De Weerd: Yes. Rountree: I move that we approve the access agreement before us for the vacation of the alleyway,. intersection of Main between Pine and Idaho, and authorize the Mayor to sign and the Clerk to attest. Zaremba: Second. De Weerd: Okay. I have a motion and a second. Any discussion? Seeing none, Madam Clerk, will you call roll. Roll-Call: Bird, yea; Rountree, yea; Zaremba, yea; Hoaglun, yea. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Item 7: Items Moved from Consent Agenda: De Weerd: Okay. Item 8 -- Item 7, we had no items moved from the Consent Agenda.

Council, you do have the letter for your consideration. If we have any questions, certainly we could get further clarification, otherwise, I will ask for your direction. Bird: Madam Mayor? Meridian City Council September 23, 2008 Page 15 of 73 De Weerd: Mr. Bird. Bird: If we don't have any question needed, I move we approve -- what one are we on? Rountree: Eight. Bird: Eight. De Weerd: Then, you would like to reconsider this? Bird: I'm sorry, I was looking at something else. Let me think a minute. De Weerd: Council, I don't know if I take your silence as a desire not to reconsider this item -- Rountree: I'm waiting on Mr. Bird. He had a motion started and I'm not sure if he wants to make one or finish one. Bird: No. Go ahead. Rountree: Madam Mayor, just for discussion, there is an indication that there is some new information. Our big issue was emergency access. They say in their letter that they have a possibility of providing emergency access, as well as contributing two additional accesses, I would be willing to at least listen to their new proposal, but if they don't answer the questions we had previously, it's not going to be beneficial use of their time or our time. So, I'm willing to reconsider based on what they said in their letter. Bird: Second. Rountree: I didn't move that, but -- De Weerd: We didn't have a motion yet. Bird: Oh, I thought that was a motion. Rountree: That's my position. De Weerd: Okay. Well, if you are willing to make a motion, I know Mr. Bird will second it.
